Chapter 1765: Defense Outside the City
At the entrance of Zhenming Mountain and on the defensive city, two million Ximen disciples were waiting in full formation.
All the elites of the Ximen family came out, and their secrets were revealed. Even the ancestors who had been in seclusion for thousands of years were invited to come out.
However, uneasiness and fear still spread on the defensive city, and no one knew whether they would be able to see the sun tomorrow.
On the city wall, Ximen Yinghao paced back and forth uneasily, looking outside the city from time to time, his eyes full of anxiety.
Thousands of miles outside the city is the default junction between the human race and the Nether Clan. In the past ten thousand years, no Nether Clan warrior has appeared.
But at this time, a group of terrifying Netherworld characters appeared in that place, with unknown intentions and impure motives.
The most serious thing is that the power of the true king released by those people is stirring back and forth in the underworld, oppressing all living beings!
Those people are not ordinary warriors of the Nether Clan, but the true kings of the Nether Clan!
Although Zhenming Mountain is a place in direct contact with the Nether Clan and the Ghost Clan, it has always been positioned as a low-intensity battlefield!
This is originally a training ground for the Venerables and below. Not to mention the True King, even the Saint will not appear here.
Even if there are Venerables, there are not many of them, and both the enemy and us will maintain a balance of combat power here.
After all, no matter the human race, the Nether Race, or the ghost race, the main battlefield is not here, and the top leaders of each race will naturally not put too much power here.
But today, outside the defensive city, the true king of the underworld suddenly appeared. Something strange happened, and the pressure was huge.
How to make the Ximen family not nervous?
How to make Ximen Yinghao not anxious?
Once the true king of the underworld takes action against the defensive city, who can resist?
At that time, the Ximen family will have only one end, and that is the destruction of the city and the death of everyone!
"Have you notified Zhongzhou?"
Ancestor Ximen looked at the group of true kings of the Nether Tribe thousands of miles away, and asked Ximen Yinghao solemnly.
"We have been notified, but something happened suddenly and there has been no response from Zhongzhou."
Ximen Yinghao frowned and said, "Time is so short, and Beiyuan is far away from Central Continent. Even if Central Continent sends the True King to support, it is impossible to arrive immediately. During this period, we can only rely on our Ximen Family to support us alone!"
"There are too many true kings of the Underworld. If we attack quickly, I will be powerless!"
Ancestor Ximen shook his head, sighed again, and said with great confusion, "If there had been only one True King of the Nether Tribe before, I could have resisted it with all my strength, but there were seven more for no reason. It is impossible for me to defeat him." Pass eight true kings!”
Indeed, at the beginning, only one True King of the Nether Tribe appeared outside the city.
When Patriarch Ximen came over, he was still full of confidence. One on one, who is afraid of whom?
As long as the True King of the Nether Tribe dares to invade the defensive city, he can defeat him and solve the crisis in Ming Ming Mountain without informing Zhongzhou.
But after a while, eight more underworld figures suddenly appeared, one of whom was a half-step true king, and the other seven were all true kings!
At that time, Patriarch Ximen's expression changed drastically, and his confidence instantly turned into despair.
He is just an ordinary true king, and he is not a transcendent true king. How can he defeat the eight true kings of the underworld?
"If it gets to that point, our Ximen family swears to live and die with the defensive city!"
Ximen Yinghao puffed up his chest and said with great pride.
"It is the fate of our Ximen family to guard Ming Mountain forever!"
Ancestor Ximen nodded and agreed with Ximen Yinghao.
However, Ximen Yinghao's brows were still furrowed as he looked at the True King of the Nether Clan outside the city and murmured in his heart: "Could it be that Lu Chen caused the turmoil in the Nether Cave and caused the Nether Clan to send out the True King to take revenge?
If that were the case, I would not have let Lu Chen enter the Underworld Cave even if I killed him. "
At this moment, thousands of miles outside the city, the nine underworld figures were standing high in the sky, looking everywhere with serious expressions.
The leader is Ming Li, and the other eight are the true kings trained by the Lord of Hades!
He was deceived by King Du and was not sure that Lu Chen was in the River Styx, but believed that Lu Chen escaped with the teleportation magic weapon.
He estimated that Lu Chen had not yet escaped from the Underworld Cave, so he immediately asked the True King beside him to take the lead in leaving the outskirts of the Underworld Cave, blocking Lu Chen's only way back to Zhenming Mountain as quickly as possible.
And he quickly returned to the Nether Nest, and as Mingzi, ordered the garrison of the Nether Nest to dispatch, block the other exits of the Nether Cave, and capture Lu Chen.
He even summoned seven true kings from the Underworld Lord's Mansion and rushed non-stop to the outskirts of the Hades Cave to join the previous true king.
Their meeting place happens to be a thousand miles away from the human defensive city. This is the junction of the Ming clan and the human race, and it is also the only way to Zhenming Mountain!
However, the previous true king took the lead. After arriving here, not only was there no trace of Lu Chen, he didn't even see anyone else.
But the true king was sure that he came with all his strength and absolutely believed in his own strength, so he arrived at this place in advance.
Even if Lu Chen used the teleportation magic weapon, he could teleport tens of thousands of miles at most. Even if he fled in the direction of Zhenming Mountain, calculated based on the time difference, it would not be faster than his true king's pursuit speed!
Therefore, after Ming Li arrived, he chose to believe in the judgment of the true king.
Ming Li was confident about Lu Chen's speed. Although the True King caught up with him too late, there was still a long distance from the Styx River to the entrance of Zhenshou Mountain. With the speed, he will definitely reach here before Lu Chen reaches Zhenming Mountain!
After that, Ming Li did not leave, but stayed here with the eight true kings, waiting for the opportunity!
The Nether Clan has been concentrating on fighting against the Ghost Clan and never attacked Zhenming Mountain, so the Nether Clan has not developed this place, has no city, and has no troops stationed there.
This area is a desolate place for the Hades. Except for a few scouts stationed there, no Hades come here.
The previous True King wanted to clear the fields and had left the scouts in this area to facilitate his actions.
Now, the eight True Kings released their power together, shaking in different directions. The area within a radius of ten thousand miles was filled with the pressure of the True Kings!
As long as someone comes out from the depths of the Hades Cave, once they enter the range of pressure, they will immediately sense it and can quickly go out to capture and kill them.
This move is mainly aimed at Lu Chen!
If Lu Chen returns to Zhenming Mountain from the Hades Cave, he will definitely be hit!
However, several hours have passed, and there is still no movement. Not to mention that Lu Chen did not come out from the depths of the Hades Cave, there is not even a bird.
"It's been so long, even a turtle would come out, and Lu Chen is not slow, so why is he still nowhere to be seen?"
Ming Li began to get restless and impatient, "Could it be that Lu Chen noticed something and found out that we are waiting for him here, so he dared not come out?"
"If Lu Chen noticed our pressure, we would also find him. The eight of us would chase him together, and he would definitely not be able to escape!"
The previous True King shook his head and comforted him, "So, there is no such thing as Lu Chen noticing us but we not noticing him.
Please wait patiently, Mingzi, that Lu Chen will definitely come out and we will definitely catch him!"
