Chapter 345
"On my command, all troops shall launch a direct attack on Tushan and capture the King of Tushan."
The Zhang Family Elder, having lost his black sword, was knocked to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood, but he did not die. Instead, he immediately issued the order to attack.
Immediately, all the Daoists of the One Qi Dao Alliance made their move at the same time.

Chapter 41 The Magic Treasure Piercing Heart Nail.
All the Daoists of the One Qi Dao Alliance attacked, and in an instant, countless sword lights pierced towards Tushan Hong Hong.
Countless Flying Sword and Magic Treasure transformed into countless streams of light. Tushan Hong Hong slapped the Daoist priest next to her away with one palm, showing no fear in the face of the Flying Sword before her.
He simply unleashed his demonic power, at the level of a demon emperor, and fearlessly blocked the Flying Sword with both hands.
With her Insulation Claw, these Flying Swords were no match for her, but their sheer number still made her struggle.
Besides dealing with the Daoists of Tushan Hong Hong, some of them directly attacked the city walls of Tushan. Hundreds of Daoists flew close to the edge on their swords, took out the demon-slaying magic Magic Treasure they had prepared, and attacked the Silver Fox Guard in front.
"We swear to defend Tushan to the death!"
"Come with me and kill these stinking Daoist priests. We absolutely cannot let them enter Tushan."
Facing the oncoming Dao Alliance cultivators, Tu Chong, the Silver Fox Guard Captain, rushed to the front, drew his machete, and shouted loudly.
In an instant, the other Silver Fox Guard echoed, shouting their vows to defend Tushan to the death, and together they faced the cultivators before them.
A fierce battle immediately broke out between the two sides. This was the largest battle between Tushan and the One Qi Dao Alliance in a hundred years. Although Dao Alliance cultivators would invade every few years in the past, they were always probing.
It's not large in scale.
Although the cultivators who came this time were not the entire main force of the One Qi Dao Alliance, after all, the only truly top-tier family was the Black Sword Zhang Family, and other major families such as Wang Quan, Dongfang, Yang family, Qing Mu Family, and Ji family did not send anyone.
But this is still extraordinary...
However, the Silver Fox Guard were not to be underestimated. Faced with the breakthrough of the Dao Alliance cultivators, they acted as a shield, successfully blocking them.
One of the Silver Fox Guard Captain, clad entirely in silver armor, displayed strength approaching that of King-level, charging into the midst of the Dao Alliance cultivators and slashing them down one by one... sending the Daoists in front of him flying.
This greatly reduced the defensive pressure on the Silver Fox Guard.
However, the good times didn't last long. The Dao Alliance cultivators noticed the situation of this Silver Fox Guard Captain and began to target him.
One of the Zhuge Family even deployed his array Magic Treasure to suppress him.
"Fellow Daoists, please step aside and let me defeat the enemy to avoid being accidentally injured."
Suddenly a voice rang out, and many Daoists looked over to see that a cultivator from the Tian Fu Family had prepared a large number of talismans and had finished charging up his power.
A terrifying threat loomed overhead...
"It's Young Master Tian Fu! Fellow Daoists, please make way! The talisman techniques of the Tian Fu Family are extremely powerful and do not distinguish between friend and foe."
Upon noticing the man's movements and recognizing the situation, the Daoist priest quickly shouted and then immediately dashed away.
The Dao Alliance possesses a vast array of supernatural powers and spells, encompassing everything imaginable and unimaginable. Among them, the Mao Family is renowned throughout the world for its talismans, but the Tian Fu Family should not be underestimated.
Moreover, the types of talismans they specialize in differ. The Mao Family is famous for talismans used to summon gods and suppress demons, while the Tian Fu Family's talismans are known for their power.
With these reminders, the Dao Alliance cultivators nearby immediately moved away from the area, while the Silver Fox Guard Captain, who was being targeted, was suppressed by the formation.
Unable to escape for a time, they could only watch helplessly as the talismans transformed into a powerful chain of wind, thunder, and lightning spells.
If someone were hit by that, it would be difficult to guarantee that their body would remain intact.
However, at this crucial moment, Tushan Hong Hong broke through the Flying Sword Array surrounding her and appeared in front of the Silver Fox Guard Captain.
Faced with that terrifying chain spell, she neither dodged nor flinched, but simply stretched out her hands.
It actually withstood the power of the spell and neutralized it.
Having dealt with the talismanic spells, Tushan Hong Hong kicked away the Zhuge Family disciple who had set up the formation and appeared on the city wall.
To prevent anyone from breaching the city wall's defensive line.
"Tushan is not a place where just anyone can run wild."
Using her magical power to replace her voice, the aura of the Tushan Hong Hong Demon Queen pressed down on all sides. But only she knew that resisting the invasion of the human cultivators before her was no easy task.
"Let's all go together. I don't believe she can stop all of us."
Faced with Tushan Hong Hong displaying power at the level of a demon emperor, many Dao Alliance cultivators hesitated, still somewhat fearful of her strength.
However, upon hearing the voices of several prominent figures from various families, their gazes suddenly hardened.
All the cultivators attacked again, especially the combined Sword Array formation. Countless Flying Sword were arranged in a way that created the effect of "ten thousand swords returning to one," which was enough to threaten even Great Demon King or someone of higher status.
"..."
Faced with the Sword Array before her, Tushan Hong Hong's expression turned serious, but she was not afraid. She simply raised her hands and used her Fox Thought Technique to interfere.
However, the Dao Alliance had anticipated this, and a Daoist directly summoned a blue lotus Magic Treasure, instantly rendering Tushan Hong Hong's Fox Thought Technique ineffective.
"It's no use. How could our One Qi Dao Alliance be unprepared to deal with Tu Shan? Tu Shan's Fox Thought Technique is extraordinary, but in front of this Pure World Green Lotus, any demonic art will lose its effect."
"So, prepare to die! King of Fox Demons."
The Daoist priest who summoned the Azure Lotus Magic Treasure was extremely confident, as it was Magic Treasure painstakingly crafted by a highly skilled member of the Daoist Alliance.
It was all for this moment, to deal with the Demon King of Tushan.
"That's outrageous."
"Head Manager... you should step aside and wait for General Feixiao to arrive so we can deal with these human Daoists."
Upon hearing the Daoist priest's words, the Silver Fox Guard Captain's face darkened. Human Daoist priests' Magic Treasure are extremely powerful, especially in the last hundred years, when they have developed all sorts of unexpected Magic Treasure that can even restrain demon kings and Great Demon King.
They dared not let Tushan Hong Hong continue to hold out, fearing something might happen to her, so they prepared to risk their lives to stand on the front line.
However, Tushan Hong Hong did not agree.
"Need not."
She coldly rejected the Silver Fox Guard Captain's suggestion, and just as the myriad swords converged and slashed down, Tushan Hong Hong leaped up and once again chose to withstand the attack head-on.
She grabbed the giant sword made up of countless Flying Swords with both hands, trying to destroy them all.
"The Insulation Claw of the King of Tushan... terrifying indeed..."
"It can even withstand a combined Sword Array head-on. This is simply unreasonable. The fox demon in front of us is too monstrous and must not be allowed to live."
"Continue, increase your mana output!"
Many senior cultivators from the Dao Alliance watched this scene in shock. Tushan Hong Hong's innate abilities were too strong; she could even resist with her bare hands.
I really don't know what kind of Magic Treasure could possibly be used to get rid of her.
Human cultivators are most skilled at using Magic Treasure, and the fox demon king before them disregards the power of Magic Treasure, making him a veritable nemesis of humans.
It would be terrifying for humanity to allow such a monster to live in the world.
Just like how, for demons, the Eastern race, who possess Pure Yang Flame, are not allowed to live in the world, they are natural enemies.
Moreover, they were all very clear that the King of Tushan in front of them had not yet fully grown up; she had only just entered the Demon Emperor realm.
If given more time, no one knows just how powerful she will become.
Among the Demon Race, Tushan Hong Hong is extremely young.
The hundreds of Dao Alliance cultivators increased their magical power output once again, making the Sword Array even stronger. Tushan Hong Hong, who had previously been able to block the giant sword in front of her, also began to have problems.
Excessive consumption of demonic energy...
However, she continued to hold on until a long nail-shaped Magic Treasure appeared beside her without leaving a trace and stabbed towards her.
By the time Tushan Hong Hong realized what was happening, it was too late. She only had time to avoid vital points before her body was pierced by the long nail Magic Treasure.
With a painful groan, Tushan Hong Hong's gaze immediately locked onto a Daoist priest casting a spell in an inconspicuous spot in the distance.
"Hahaha, so what if he's a demon emperor? He was still pierced through the body by my Huang Family's Piercing Heart Nail."
The Daoist priest surnamed Huang was extremely excited to see his Magic Treasure successfully hit Tushan Hong Hong.
The Huang Family is also a prominent family in the Dao Alliance, but compared to those top-tier families, they are a level below and their reputation is not prominent.
But in this campaign against Tushan, he injured the King of Tushan, thus making a great contribution.
The Huang Family will surely become famous, and may even rise to prominence as a result, standing shoulder to shoulder with powerful families like the Zhang and Yang families.
The One Qi Dao Alliance is an alliance composed of countless Daoist families, and the internal competition is extremely fierce.
"Huang Daoyou has a magical Magic Treasure. Now is the time to kill the fox demon before us."
The Daoist priest who was casting the Sword Array noticed this scene and immediately praised it. He then instructed those around him to seize the opportunity and let the Sword Array completely kill Tushan Hong Hong in front of him.
Tushan Hong Hong, who had been able to hold on, instantly lost her previous confidence after this attack.
As the ten thousand swords from the Sword Array came charging in...
"The Head Manager!!"
Faced with this scene, the other fox demons who were defending against the invasion of the Dao Alliance cultivators panicked completely.
I wanted to help, but I was held back.
Just when these Dao Alliance cultivators thought that the King of Tushan was doomed, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Tushan Hong Hong, blocking the approaching Sword Array with one hand.
"What? There are more experts?"
"Another fox demon resisting Sword Array with her bare hands?!"
The cultivators of the One Qi Dao Alliance stared wide-eyed at the scene before them.
It's already outrageous enough that Tushan Hong Hong is using her Insulation Claw to resist the Sword Array and Magic Treasure with her bare hands, but now another one has appeared?
Are all the fox demons in Tushan this outrageous?
"You've arrived."
Tushan Hong Hong covered her wound and looked at Feixiao who appeared in front of her, and breathed a sigh of relief.
She was ambushed and could no longer resist the invasion of these humans, but with Feixiao there, she should be alright.
"Hmm, you're injured?"
Feixiao easily blocked the giant sword in the Sword Array with one hand, observing Tushan Hong Hong's condition and noticing that her wound was a bit unexpected.
Although Tushan Hong Hong's strength has not yet reached its peak, she shouldn't be defeated by these people.
If it were a royal power or an Eastern clan, then she wouldn't be surprised.
However, none of the two major forces were among the Daoists present; they were all from other aristocratic families within the Daoist Alliance.
"Well, it's not a big problem."
Tushan Hong Hong nodded. This thing wouldn't kill her, especially with Jade Spirit's healing abilities coming up.
They just need to rest for a while, and their combat strength is temporarily greatly reduced.
As she spoke, Tushan Hong Hong looked at the thing that had hurt her, only to see that the Magic Treasure had already returned to the Huang Family Daoist priest's hands.
This Magic Treasure is incredibly powerful and extremely difficult to detect. But if she hadn't been caught off guard, it wouldn't have been able to harm her at all.
She was careless!
"That thing... could it be... Piercing Heart Nail?!"
Feixiao's gaze followed to the Magic Treasure in the hands of the Huang Family Daoist priest, and it looked somewhat familiar.
This Magic Treasure was seven and a half inches long, emitting brilliant light and dazzling flames.
Like a rare treasure, its golden light shines forth from the palm.
It is very similar to the Magic Treasure True Lord Qingxu Daode, one of the twelve immortals of the Chan Sect, gave to his disciple Huang Tianhua in the original novel of Investiture of the Gods of the Gods. Huang Tianhua used this magic weapon to kill all Mo Family Four Generals. He also used this magic weapon to injure Xin Huan's fleshy wings and open up Winged Immortal's right arm.
As the poem testifies:
This treasure has now emerged from Ziyang and has been refined to a length of seven and a half inches.
The profound and wondrous method is truly extraordinary, subduing the four Heavenly Kings of the Demon Clan.
Considering the situation in this world, it seems not surprising that Dao Alliance cultivators in this world might possess supernatural powers and magical Magic Treasure from Investiture of the Investiture of the Gods and Journey to the West.
