Shi Lang was unaware that demon sovereigns had picked up weapons against them and had evene in person to fight with the human experts. He fought the demonic cultivators before him with full force. The output was unimaginable; his body was covered with demonic blood, and his footsteps were all over the Arena.


    The battle was so devastating that the neen pirs shattered, and the ground was covered in rubble. Shi Tao knelt on one of the remaining pirs, taking care of the Demon Lords.


    She spoke using spiritualmunication, "Mom, you have two at your six."


    Amelia replied, "Got it, watch."


    Watch was used as a tactical position and a tag. The Terrans were a military creed; it did not matter how long they had been away from the battlefield. As soon as they held a weapon, they were all killing machines. Amelia disyed that same spirit, and Shi Tao recalled the military way, her expression bing serious.


    ...


    Shi Lang looked at the people around him; he would manipte his clones to go and help them when needed. He saw Shi Tao regting the pace of the attack, and they were all fighting very effectively. The Terran took a deep breath and wanted to say something when a hoarse voice sounded behind him, "How dare you look away when fighting with me?"


    Shi Lang looked at him and said, "You are not strong enough, pissant."


    He did not hide his disdain for the guy at all. Demonic Cultivators were crazy people, living to watch the world burn in chaos. After Shi Lang insulted the guy, he came over to attack Shi Lang with scimitars.


    Shi Lang got busy with the enemy, unable to pass his instructions to Shi Tao. The battle was intense, and the city suffered a lot of damage. People unable to cultivate had all been sent to safe houses, as demonic cultivators had ced multiple portals inside the human cultivators.


    This was a technique that could not be countered; no one would be able to tell if the human cultivator had been weaponized. So the martial council hade up with emergency protocols, ensuring the city was sealed and civilians were safe. The city army would be present inside the city and would fight the enemy.


    Casualties were fewer, but some unfortunate souls could not escape fate and died. Their corpses lingered along the streets. The soldiers were fighting the demonic cultivators to the best of their abilities, but they were unable to keep up with them.


    The force that protected the force was often trained to lower coteral damage, making them slow down and be more cautious. The city guard captain yelled, "Men! Do not lose hope."


    They were being pressed hard, and this was the only thing he could say to them. However, suddenly, they heard a demonic cultivator yell, "Who the fuck are you?"


    The city guards caught sight of figures dressed in ck and red cloaks. They all seemed mysterious and dangerous. The leader of this group said, "Go, leave none standing."


    These people moved like phantoms and were so quick that they killed every enemy before them in a few attacks. The people worked in unison, as if performing for the masses in a theater.


    The city guard captain was taken aback, but the leader of the other group said, "Are you going to stand there and sleep the entire battle?"


    The man woke up and spotted the cloaked figure standing next to him. He was scared, but the figure said, "Tell your men to guide these scum to us. I hope you know what I mean."


    The guard captain nodded and quickly instructed the soldiers to kite and guide the enemy to the group of neers. All these people in ck and red cloaks were the elite squads of the Asura Hall. The five big squads out of seven hade over, fighting the enemy all over the city.


    The streets flowed with blood, and the Asura Hall people were the reason. They were killing the enemies and moving forward. The entire city was a yground for them. It was not like they were the only people, but they coordinated in a way that none else could have imagined.


    ...


    Outside the city barrier, Tian Long and the rest of the Immortal Sovereigns were fighting the demonic sovereigns with great ferocity. Tian Long faced the person he called Old Centipede.


    The reason behind this was that the person belonged to the Bug sect. These people used bugs to harvest blood from humans and then refined it to cultivate. This man, Old Centipede, was the expert from the bug sect. He was so deeply involved in cultivation that his face had developed a scar.


    Tian Long fought with him using his sword, while Old Man Centipede had a huge centipede made of demonic energy. The battle between the sovereigns was nothing too damaging. They fought using Dao Laws.


    Tian Long waved his sword, and it collided with the centipede. He practiced the Dao of Sword and had the element of fire. The centipede shivered from the Daows channeling through its body. The sword Daows cut it up from many ces, but the demonic Dao Laws from the centipede also attacked Tian Long.


    Suddenly, Mand appeared behind Tian Long, and he turned around to attack the monk. He could sense that the monk did not have any good intentions for appearing behind him. The monk smiled and said, "I apologize, Patron Heavenly Dragon."


    His third eye opened, and a ray of light shed through the void. Lao Xu saw this and yelled, "Traitor!"


    Tian Long''s body fell from the void; it was not sure if he was alive or dead. The people stopped, and Lao Xu attacked Mand. Thetter defended the attack but suffered some bacsh from it. Amethyst asked, "Why? Why?"


    Mand smiled and replied, "It was necessary, he was holding power for too long. He was about to disperse the bnce of the forces of the dark and the light. He had to be stopped."


    Suddenly, the void tunnel opened, and Zither Soul appeared before them. Thedy did not say anything to anyone, and no one attacked her as shended next to Tian Long. She saw a hole through his brows, raised her indifferent eyes, and looked at Mand as she said, "You used the Dao Laws of space to kill him, giving up all your cultivation. Was it worth it?"


    Mand nodded and said, "Yes, it was."


    Zither Soul nodded, looking back at the face of her belovedying on the ground as if sleeping with peace. She took out her zither and said, "Since you wish to keep the bnce so much, then you shall also pay a price."


    Thedy began to strum the strings one at a time. The sound of the zither passed the people, and they were calm. However, when the demonic cultivators heard this song, they exploded into a mist of blood.


    The people were shocked, unable to understand what was going on.


    ...


    Shi Lang was fighting inside the city when he suddenly heard Lao Xu''s loud yell. A few momentster, he heard a string sound. The demons before him began to explode in blood mist. He stopped, and so did the other people.


    After hearing a few strums, his eyes widened, and he turned to look at the direction where the sound originated. Shi Lang yelled, "Amy, you have themand."


    He rushed


    away out of the arena and appeared outside the city in a few shes. Shi Lang saw all the people standing in a daze, and he saw Zither Soul strumming on the zither. He rushed closer to her and yelled, "Moon, do not do that. Stop ying that song! I beg you, stop ying."


    Moon Jade turned to look at him and with a sad smile said, "Tian is gone, what can I do by staying here."


    Shi Lang was stunned; he looked beside Moon Jade and found Tian Longying on the bed. His eyes opened wide, and he walked closer with heavy steps. His sword was trembling and emitting a sharp whistling sound. Raksha materialized next to Moon Jade and ced a hand on her shoulder.


    She was Tian Long''s sword and had some attachment to him. Watching him like this, she was going crazy. Shi Lang touched Tian Long, and after some thoughts, he said, "Stop ying that song. He is not yet dead."


    Everyone was shocked, and Shi Lang said, "Trust me, Moon."


    Moon Jade was crying but even then she stopped ying the song of death. Mand said, "Young man, how can he survive the attack that destroyed his soul sea? Could you not sense that his soul just dissipated."


    Shi Lang took a calm look at him and said, "Did you attack him?"


    Mand nodded and Shi Lang asked, "Why?"


    The monk replied, "For the bnce."


    Shi Lang nodded and said, "You followed your karma, I will follow mine."


    Everyone was surprised and then they saw a tear of blood drip from Shi Lang''s right eye as he said, "Those who harm my people shall die be it the demons, be it the gods, or be it the monks. If anyone tried to stop me I shall y them be it friends, be it family, or be it the heavens."


    Lightning shed across the sky and the air turned heavy. Shi Lang was not angry but he was agonized and he sought for the destruction of his enemies. He raised his hand and Raksha''s hilt materialized in his hand following with the de.
