The Enemy at the Gates, Plans

As soon as Liu Yi left his Portable Daoist Sanctum, he sensed that the protective array of Wu Village had been activated.

Outside the village, demonic energy surged, obscuring the sky and transforming into ferocious and grotesque phantoms of demonic gods, accompanied by the earth-shattering roars of Devil Beast.

His expression suddenly darkened, and he immediately realized that the Devil Race were attacking.

"What bad luck."

He sighed inwardly, "I've only been in Wu Village for a hundred years, and haven't even had a chance to properly cultivate and improve my cultivation level, and now we're facing an invasion by the Devil Race."

His biggest worry was whether any of the Devil Race who had come to invade were powerful Devil King (Immortal King).

If there truly is Devil King, given his current state of being sealed by the Great Dao Chains in his Land of Exile, he is unable to unleash his Law Power and his Divine Ability are difficult to employ, making him a formidable opponent.

At that point, let alone protecting Wu Village, even his own escape would be extremely difficult.

According to information gathered from the Land of Exile, villages breached by the Devil Race are invariably utterly destroyed, with even the chickens and dogs left alive, and the inhabitants often devoured.

Although Liu Yi always valued his life, he had no intention of fleeing without a fight.

If one has the strength to fight, then it is one's duty to do so; but if the strength is vastly different, one can only try to save oneself and escape.

If given the opportunity, he would also use the system's Spatial Teleportation to try and evacuate others together.

Liu Yi's mind raced. He strode to the gate of the mansion and pushed it open.

Outside the door, Li Zhan, the captain of the Wu Village guard team, was pacing back and forth anxiously.

Before Liu Yi could speak, Li Zhan rushed forward as soon as the door opened and said urgently:

"Senior Liu, you've finally emerged from seclusion!"

The Devil Race are attacking in force! The village needs your help!

Liu Yi nodded slightly and asked in a deep voice, "How strong is the Devil Race race this time? How many powerful figures do they have?"

Li Zhan's expression was solemn, and he quickly replied, "The invading enemy is the Mingyuan Devil General and the Jueyu Devil General under the command of the Sky -Heaven-Breaking Devil King near Thunder King City."

They led ten True Devil (True Immortal), two hundred thousand Devil Race warriors, and a million Devil Beast to attack Wu Village.

We've sent out our request for help, but it will take time for reinforcements to arrive. We must hold out until then.

He paused, then offered some words of comfort, "But don't worry, senior, although our Wu Village is at a disadvantage, we are not pushovers."

Those two Devil General had both been defeated by Village Wu Dong before. Even if the two demons joined forces, they might not be a match for the village chief.

Upon hearing this, Liu Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good that there's no Devil King, otherwise he would have no choice but to run away.

After all, one only has one life. He had no deep ties with Wu Village, and it would be foolish to knowingly charge forward even though he was doomed.

As long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood to burn.

If it really comes to that, he will only protect himself first, and wait until his cultivation has greatly improved before destroying the Heaven-Breaking Devil King's lineage and avenging the people of Wu Village.

But now, the opponent only has two Demon General Realm (Heavenly Immortal Realm) and ten True Devil.

Even though he is currently sealed by the Great Dao Chains, making it difficult for him to use his Divine Ability and limiting his strength, it is still not difficult for him to kill these people with his terrifyingly powerful physical body.

If it weren't a contest of energy or Divine Ability, but simply a battle of physical strength, he was confident he could crush Immortal King to the ground, or even tear Immortal King apart with his bare hands.

After all, the billions of Cell World within his body had already been upgraded to the Great World level.

He himself could not accurately estimate the strength of his physical body, but he was certain that his physical body was no weaker than that of Immortal King, and might even be stronger.

He looked at Li Zhan and smiled slightly, "Captain Li, I'll go and hold off the Devil Race first."

Before he finished speaking, he flashed and flew straight towards the village gate.

At this moment, seven figures were already standing in mid-air above the village gate.

Liu Yi immediately recognized these people as the top combat force of Wu Village, and promptly flew over, landing steadily beside them.

His gaze swept across the scene, and he already knew what was going on:

The one with the highest cultivation level is Wu Dong, who is at the Peak of the Heavenly Immortal Realm, while the other six are all at the True Immortal Realm.

He bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings, Wu Village, and fellow Daoists."

Liu Yi had just gone into seclusion and arrived a step too late.

Wu Dong looked at Liu Yi and sensed that the other party's cultivation was at the peak of the Longevity Realm (True Immortal Realm).

Coupled with the faint sense of danger he felt through his spiritual perception, a glint flashed in his eyes, and a smile immediately appeared on his face as he returned the greeting with clasped hands.

Fellow Daoist Liu, you've come at the perfect time.

I had been in seclusion until recently when I learned that another True Immortal had joined Wu Village. I had intended to pay him a visit, but since you have been in seclusion, I was unable to do so.

The Devil Race invasion has disturbed your cultivation, fellow cultivator; please forgive us.

The other six True Immortal also bowed and said, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist Liu!"

Liu Yi exchanged brief pleasantries with the others, then turned his gaze towards the outside of the village.

All sorts of bizarre and monstrous Devil Beast surged forward like a black tide, followed by a large number of strangely- Devil Beast Devil Race who charged toward Wu Village with murderous intent, and twelve demon gods stood in the air.

The surging demonic energy and overwhelming demonic power swept in like a tsunami, causing the air to freeze.

A True Immortal's face was tense, his eyes filled with barely concealed fear, his Adam's apple bobbing as he asked:

"Wu Village, the enemy is too strong. I'm afraid we can't hold them off. How long will it take for reinforcements to arrive?"

Wu Dong's expression was resolute; he remained unmoved in the face of the overwhelming demonic power, his gaze sweeping over the crowd:

"Other villages are far away, and it will take at least half a day for reinforcements to arrive."

The Devil Race deliberately concealed their presence during this invasion, and we discovered them too late. Now, all we can do is hold out until reinforcements arrive.

He paused, then said in a steady and powerful voice, "Although the Devil Race came prepared, Wu Village is not a lamb to the slaughter."

If we all work together, we will surely be able to hold out until reinforcements arrive and overcome this calamity together!

Everyone understood that there was no way to retreat now, and the Devil Race would never give them a chance to escape. They all responded in deep voices:

"We are willing to fight to the death to defend our village and perish with it!"

Wu Dong nodded slightly. "With everyone working together, we will definitely be able to hold out until reinforcements arrive!"

Just then, a piercing demonic howl suddenly rang out from within the Devil Race camp, followed by a deafening roar filled with murderous intent and violence:

"Human Race ants, you are surrounded! Our strength far surpasses yours. You'd better just accept your fate and die, lest you suffer."

Another arrogant and domineering voice followed closely behind. "Fellow Daoist Mingyuan is right! Today is your death day!"

Wu Dong, today I have joined forces with Mingyuan, and you are doomed to die!

Looking at the ferocious Devil Beast and hideous Devil Race outside the village, the people of Wu Village felt a sense of panic.

"This time the Devil Race came prepared. Can we really hold out?"

"We have to defend it, even if we can't! Given the Devil Race ' ruthlessness, they will never let us go."

"That's right! We're going to die anyway, so we might as well fight them! Killing one is enough, killing two is a bonus!"

"Yes! Fight them to the death! Even if we die, we'll take a piece of their flesh."

"Hahaha!"

Wu Dong laughed wildly, his face full of disdain, his whole body exuding a chilling killing intent:

"You two defeated wrestlers dare to speak so arrogantly here?"

With your meager strength, even if you join forces, Non-Self.

"You dare to invade Wu Village today? Once our Human Race reinforcements arrive, your deaths will be inevitable!"

Wu Dong's counterattack was calm and composed, showing no signs of being at a disadvantage. The Wu Village people, who had been slightly flustered, instantly calmed down and rekindled their fighting spirit and confidence.
