Demon Lord Guards the Grounds

Qi Lang stared blankly at Zhang Yang, not expecting that the Demon Calamity had not yet been eliminated.

In fact, as long as the Demon Lord is not dead, the Demon Calamity has certainly not been eliminated.

However, these Demon Calamity are mostly hidden within the Azure Cloud Sect, and Azure Cloud Sect Demon Calamity resolve them on its own.

Where will this new Demon Calamity descend upon?

Zhang Yang sighed and looked at Qi Lang, saying, "I've already warned several sects to be careful of the Demon Calamity, but these guys just don't believe me and think we're exaggerating."

We've done our responsibilities, and those who don't believe us will have to bear the consequences themselves.

Besides, we've already joined forces with the Demon Lord.

Even if a new Demon Lord arrives, we should be fine.

As for the others, that's hard to say!

Qi Lang was filled with doubt and unease. In his understanding, shouldn't the Azure Cloud Sect and the Demon Lord be mortal enemies?

Why did the Demon Lord spare the Azure Cloud Sect after its arrival?

Zhang Yang didn't offer much explanation. In any case, it was best if all the information was a mix of truth and falsehood, leaving all the other sects in the world in a state of confusion and uncertainty.

In fact, he still doesn't know if the Demon Venerable will send more Demon Lord over.

However, in the eyes of the Demon Lord, he was one of their own, and in the eyes of other Demon Lord, he was sent by the Demon Venerable.

If the Demon Venerable sends other Demon Lord, he might be able to use this identity to protect the Azure Cloud Sect!

After Zhang Yang and Qi Lang talked for a while and confirmed their trade relationship, Zhang Yang invited Sea-Heaven Pavilion to observe the military exercise again, and then sent Qi Lang back to Azure Cloud Town.

After that, Zhang Yang stopped seeing everyone.

He knew perfectly well that Huijing was waiting at the Azure Cloud Guesthouse to visit the Azure Cloud Sect, but he seemed to have forgotten about it.

Inside the Azure Cloud Guesthouse, Huijing seemed to have forgotten about the incident as well. She spent her days meditating and practicing Zen, only visiting the Azure Cloud Museum at set times, and doing nothing else.

"Fifty days until the military exercise, everyone, any progress?" Zhang Yang asked Huolingzi and the others as he arrived at the Artifact Refinement Peak.

Huolingzi, Hualingzi, Biling Zi, and Qingxu are all here.

In the middle of the group, there was a disc-shaped object, about two zhang in diameter, on which various runes and lines were flashing.

Upon seeing Zhang Yang enter, Huolingzi pointed to the disc and said, "You've come at the right time. This thing is just one last step away. However, we're only 60% sure we can complete this final step. If we fail, I suspect half of the entire Artifact Refinement Peak will be blown up... Right now, we're all undecided about whether to complete this final step or not."

"Then what are we waiting for?" Zhang Yang said hurriedly, "Since we're 60% sure, let's do it!"

You've all done the calculations, are you sure you're 60% confident?

"We've calculated it seven or eight times already!" Hualingzi said in a deep voice. "Zhang Yang, if this thing explodes, not only will the Artifact Refinement Peak lose half its resources, but the materials for two Spirit Artifacts will be gone just like that!"

"Hey, I'm telling you, you guys are just so indecisive!" Zhang Yang said irritably. "Once it's all decided and we've done the simulations multiple times, then there's only one path left!"

Just do it!

Even if we fail, we've avoided a wrong path, learned from our mistakes, and that brings us one step closer to success!

Of course, this final step should not be completed at the Artifact Refinement Peak.

This is Sixth Uncle's house, don't let him blow it up.

Wait for me a moment, I'll go set up the military exercise site right away and get there to complete the final step.

Anyway, it's going to be blown up somewhere eventually."

"But isn't this thing top secret?" Biling Zi asked.

Zhang Yang laughed and nodded, saying, "Of course it's top secret, so I need to find some senior Devil Race and ask for their help! Wait for my good news, I'll make the arrangements right away!"

He rushed to the West Mountain Forbidden Grounds and found several Demon Lords.

When they saw the Demon Lord, Flame Demon Gu Qiang was melting and forging countless metals. A million catties of various metals had been melted and forged into a metal pillar that was more than three zhang long and five or six chi thick.

Meanwhile, Gu Yan was using his fists to continuously pound the pillar, gradually making it more solid.

Of course, the volume of the metal pillar continues to shrink.

"Gentlemen, you're all busy!" Zhang Yang greeted the group of Demon Lord.

Gudoer glanced at Zhang Yang and said calmly, "Didn't I refine this for you according to your requirements? It'll be ready soon, it'll meet your requirements very soon."

"Thank you, seniors!" Zhang Yang thanked the Demon Lord. "However, I have one more thing I need to trouble you with."

I've already prepared some items for the military exercise to be sent to the exercise site.

However, I don't want anyone to know these things beforehand, so I'd like to ask you to help oversee things.

Before the military exercise begins, anyone who approaches the area to spy on anything will be eliminated.

What do you think?

Gudoer nodded. "No problem!"

In reality, did they have other options?

Whether their True Name are suppressed or their identities Zhang Yang, they are obligated to help.

"Let Gu Qiang and Gu Yan continue refining it. The rest of us will go and oversee the military exercise area!" Gudoer stood up, giving Gu Yan and Gu Qiang a meaningful look. "You two focus on refining it, speed up the process, and finish it as soon as possible. Gravity runes will need to be inscribed on it later!"

"No problem!" Gu Qiang and Gu Yan nodded in agreement.

"Thank you so much, thank you so much!" Zhang Yang said again.

Then, he took Gudoer, Gu Meiying, and Gu Huang and headed straight for the military exercise site.

This venue was specially selected by Zhang Yang.

Surrounded by several mountains, it can serve as a perfect observation platform for military exercises.

In the middle was a vast basin stretching for over ten miles, perfect for launching an operation.

Zhang Yang pointed to the surrounding mountains and said, "I would like to trouble you seniors to take up positions on a few of these mountains. By the way, we also have some lower-level disciples who may need to continuously enter the military exercise area, so your auras must not disturb them; they cannot withstand it."

"Rest assured!"

Three Demon Lord blocked the military exercise area from three different directions.

After making the arrangements, Zhang Yang returned to the sect and said to Huolingzi and the others, "Take this with you, we're going to the military exercise grounds."

Oh, right, I'm going to find Yu Song and ask Yu Song to come with us and take photos the whole time.

Even if it explodes prematurely, I still need to preserve the scene of the explosion.

"Master, the safety of everyone depends on you."

"Okay, I understand!" Azure Cloud Master replied helplessly.

He was utterly helpless. These lunatics had created something like this; were they really not afraid of blowing up the Azure Cloud Sect?

The group carried the huge disc to the airship and transported it to the military exercise site.

Huolingzi glanced at everyone, swallowed hard, and said, "I'm about to begin the final step!"

He was actually a little nervous, with expectations of success and worries about failure.

"Do it!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, each one holding their breath in anticipation.
