Chapter Sixty-Four: Luoyang City
ong to lunge to the left. At the same time, he saw a wave of searing blade energy slash across the ground, leaving shallow but distinct marks.Shen Changqing walked closer with his sword drawn.Looking...The sky was gray, not a single ray of sunshine pierced through.
On the desolate street, many things are scattered there.

As if after a hasty retreat, the people who lived here had all fled, leaving behind these things that no one had time to take.
The wind is blowing.
Like ghosts roaring in anger.
In an abandoned shop, a middle-aged man with blood on his body was staring warily at his surroundings, not daring to relax for a moment.
Only after the wind died down did he let out a long sigh.
"It's over for now!"
After a wry smile.
The middle-aged man spat on the ground again, his face contorted with anger.
"That damned thing, after slaughtering all the people in the city, its power grew considerably. In one moment of carelessness, it fell into its hands!"
"Alas, the twenty million people of Luoyang City have fallen victim to demonic sorcery. Yet our Demon Suppression Division remains powerless to help..."
There is no doubt.
This man is Xun Qu, the general who guards the city of Po Shan.
Thinking of the power of that demon.
There was a deep sense of apprehension on Xun Qu's face.
Having been trapped in Luoyang City for several days, he naturally crossed swords with the demonic creature.
Alas.
After massacring two hundred thousand people in the city, the demon's power grew tremendously. Even he was unable to stand against it.
Unless one has exceptional abilities.
Not everything is guaranteed to escape the other party's grasp.
However.
Even though he escaped from the clutches of demons, he is still trapped within Luoyang city.
Xun Qu understands.
The demon was constantly searching for its whereabouts.
After all, a wounded town guard is like a delicious treat to demons.
If it could devour itself, that demon's strength would absolutely make another breakthrough.
By that time.
In Nanyou Mansion, there are not many people who can counter that demon.
Whether for his own life or for the sake of others in Nanyou Mansion, Xun Qu felt that he could not sacrifice himself easily.
>
Just—
Luoyang City was shrouded in a thick fog, like a barrier separating it from the outside world. Even the spiritual energy of heaven and earth could barely penetrate it.
During normal times.
The commander-in-chief could draw on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, so he could go for ten days and a half without eating without much of a problem.
You can do that here.
To last that long, it's a bit difficult.
Not to mention.
The previous battle resulted in heavy losses.
In order to recover from injuries, it consumed even more energy.

Now.
Xun Qu felt that the remaining strength he had was nearly gone.
Even if they hid all the time and weren't found by demons, after half a month, their combat ability would be almost lost.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Wait until one or two months later.
That means I have to starve to death.
It's been four days, that side of Poshan City should be reacting by now. Ji Tianlu, if you don't come, you'll have to die at my hands!
Xun Qu cursed inwardly.
He persisted for so long, there was also one reason: waiting for rescue from the city of Bashan.
But.
It's been four days.
It has been four days.
Don't say you support it, even if you haven't seen a single hair.
Xun Qu even doubted whether Ji Tianlu wanted to take this opportunity to eliminate dissidents and have himself killed in Luoyang City.
At this moment.
A gust of wind swept down the street. The gentle breeze, usually so soothing, felt eerie in the desolate setting. If you listened closely, you could almost hear faint footsteps echoing through the emptiness.
It was as if it wasn't the wind that had passed, but invisible squads of people patrolling back and forth.
Bang!
Bang!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The doors and windows vibrated incessantly.
It sounded like someone was pounding on the door outside.
Xun Qu's complexion returned to normal. He looked at the incessantly buzzing door, but he didn't make any move.
They were trapped in the broken mountain city for several days.
This commander also has some experience.
“Elder Shen, Luoyang City is right ahead!”
Setting off on horseback, Deng Gu gripped the reins tightly and pointed towards the horizon with his gaze.
Actually, he doesn't need to say it.
Shen Changqing also saw the thick fog ahead.
The fog was very dense, and as you got closer, it looked like the sky was being blocked out completely. The entire world was divided in two by the thick fog.
But from afar.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
Though the thick fog was equally vast, it wasn't as terrifyingly oppressive as a sky-covering one.
"Luoyang City!"
Even with the eyesight of a peak master, one couldn't penetrate even an inch of the thick fog before them.
>
The swirling mists seemed to be alive.
As far as the eye can see.
All have the illusion of being swallowed.
>
Both of them stopped when they were about a hundred paces away from the city of Luoyang.
Deng Gu sighed: "I've been to Luoyang City several times. Although it's not as prosperous as Poshan City, it's still a place that makes people linger. I never expected that in just a short time, it would become like this!"
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Ordinary people are weak and pitiful in the face of demons.
Although now, there is no true sight of Luoyang City behind the thick fog.
But.
>
He also knows pretty much about it.
The common people in Luoyang City were almost all captured by demons.
What are the consequences
Needless to say.
"Such a powerful barrier!"
Let me know if you have more text you'd like translated!
Only when he truly neared Luoyang City could Shen Changqing feel the immense power of the barrier before him.
Unlike regions formed by natural disasters.
Even powerful demons can use their strength to set up formidable barriers.
Within the barrier.
The power of demons has increased somewhat.
All those trapped within the barrier, if they do not possess the power to break it, are fundamentally unable to escape.
Now.
Then Shen Changqing truly understood.
Why didn't the people of Luoyang City escape, and even the powerful warriors from the Demon Suppression Division were like ox into the sea
Let's examine the reasons for this.
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
It is because of this barrier before us.
It's just that.
It's impossible to judge the strength of a demon from the barrier itself.
He turned his head to look at Deng Gu: "The Luoyang City barrier is powerful, and the demons inside are not ordinary. Deng, you stay here to exorcise demons. Within three days, if I don't come out of the barrier, you return to the Demon Suppression Division to request reinforcements."
Also, tell Jitianlu.
If the demons in Luoyang City were to consume both me and Xun Que, their strength would undoubtedly grow to a terrifying level.
At that time, whether or not the city of PoShan could hold out was a question.
That's it.
Shen Changqing didn't wait for Deng Gu to answer, and he walked straight into the barrier.
Xun Qu had been trapped in Luoyang City for four or five days, and Ji Tianlu hadn't moved to resolve it.
Regardless of whether the other party is considering the safety of Pushan City or fearing the demons in Luyang City, it has nothing to do with me.
However.
He also did not want to be trapped in Luoyang City, like Xun Que, having to wait until after the capture of Shanshan before sending someone to rescue him.
To put it simply.
Shen Changqing knew that he came to Luyang City to save people and incidentally brush up on his killing points, not to come to die.
He let Deng Gu state the matter, but there was a hint of threat in his words.
Of course.
That's also the truth.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Ji Tianlu's strength is definitely not as good as Dongfang Zhao's.
The demonic forces in Luyang City are clearly not ordinary. If they swallow a Garrison Commander and a Grand Sun Furnace master, the possibility of them making a breakthrough is very high.
And.
Luoyang City is not very far from Poshan City.
The demonic creatures in Luoyang City have successfully broken through, and it's only a matter of time before they attack Shanshan City.
That time.
With Ji Tianlu's abilities, Shen Changqing didn't think the other party could withstand it.
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
I was thinking about something.
He walked steadily towards the barrier.
When the body comes into contact with the thick fog.
A powerful aura of evil energy, appearing out of nowhere with a sudden and abruptness, was so potent that even ordinary masters would change color in fear.
Only to see Shen Changqing's body tremble.
As hot as the sun, the qi and blood flowed, easily dispersing the sinister aura.
“Stronger than a Bisha-class monster, but far from Wang Mubai's aura. Although it has reached the level of a demon, it is not as terrifying as Wang Mubai.”
In a flash.
He now had a sense of the strength of the demons.
Stronger than a Bi Sha level, firmly standing above the demon level.
But it is far inferior to a great demon, there is no comparison.
On the other side.
After seeing Shen Changqing enter the thick fog and disappear completely, Deng Gu's face also showed a worried expression.
"I wonder if Elder Shen can rescue General Xun!"
He already knew that Xun Qu was trapped inside.
When he first got the news, Deng Gu was also taken aback.
A city guardian.
I was unexpectedly trapped within Luoyang City.
Here is the translated text:

This message spreading would be enough to cause the Demon Suppression Division to erupt.
Meanwhile.
He had a more comprehensive understanding of Shen Changqing's abilities.
His heart also held a barely perceptible trace of fear.
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
That was the fear generated by a powerful presence of the unknown.
Deep in the thick fog, Shen Changqing did not change direction and walked straight ahead.
>
It could be a minute.
It could also be half an hour.
The outline of a city appeared in his sight.
The city was large, but in the thick fog it only showed as a dark, imposing shadow. It felt more like a terrible beast lying dormant than a city.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
When Shen Changqing came close.
only then did I truly see the city's appearance.
>
Above are mottled traces, symbolizing that this city has existed for a very long time. The city gate is wide open, and covered by mist, it's like the mouth of a giant beast. Anyone who goes in without permission will be swallowed up.
He paused for a moment.

Immediately.
Shen Changqing strode inside. for him when necessary.Last time the statue of Zhong Shan's vengeance god collapsed, he was the first to come out and try to seize its original believers for himself.But now.It's only been a short wh...
