He paused and continued: "After receiving the news, our sect leader made an immediate decision and led almost all the Jindan elders in the sect to support Tianyang Pass and turn the tide."

Jì Hou heard this and deliberately interjected, "So, almost all the elders have left? Then why didn't you go, Elder Han? Is it because you are not strong enough?"

These words made Elder Han's face turn red instantly. His eyes widened and he pointed at Jì Hou with trembling fingers, obviously irritated by the joke.

"You brat! How dare you challenge me! Do you dare to gesticulate with me! Today I will show you what a real nightmare is!" Elder Han was furious, and seemed to be planning to teach Jì Hou a lesson in the next second.

Upon seeing this, Jì Hou quickly poured tea for Elder Han with a smile on his face, trying to calm down his anger. "Haha, don't be angry, Elder Han, I was just joking."

He handed over a full cup of hot tea in his hand and said with a smile: "Of course I understand that you and some of the elders stayed here to prevent the sect from being empty and to prevent enemies from taking advantage of the situation."

Although Elder Han was still sulking, he still took the tea from Jì Hou, took a heavy sip, and responded angrily: "I know you still ask."

The atmosphere was a little awkward. Jì Hou cleverly changed the subject and asked in a slightly serious voice: "So, what is the situation in Qingzhou now?"

Elder Han snorted, and finally chose to let go of this boy who was giving him a headache, so he followed this topic and began to talk about the current war situation in Qingzhou and the severe situation he faced.

Qingzhou's Yuanying strength is not a sect or dynasty, but a huge army, the Black Kun Army.

Its commander, Hei Ping, has reached the middle stage of Nascent Soul. Although Qingzhou may not have an absolute advantage in terms of personal strength alone, the Hei Kun Army is famous for its unique group combat.

They are good at forming troops into formations. Once the formation is activated, Commander Heiping will sit at the center of the formation, like an extremely sharp sword, pointing directly at the heart of the enemy. Even if he faces the strongest Nascent Soul peak, he can make him stop here. The sword was broken and fell into the sand, causing the demon tribe to suffer unspeakably.

The Nascent Soul monks and a large number of Golden Core monks who cooperated with Lizhou and Heizhou to jointly support the two states formed an indestructible line of defense at Tianyang Pass.

To this day, the two sides have fought many times, all of which ended with the human race gaining the upper hand. In the short term, there is no suspense about the safety of Tianyang Pass.

However, in order to prevent a possible sudden attack by the demon clan, the sect leader and the other elders must stand ready and guard Tianyang Pass without leaving the sect, unable to escape and return to the sect.

After getting the news from Qingzhou from Elder Han, Jì Hou had a huge question mark in his heart.

"What? Is this the strength of the demon clan?" Jì Hou was full of doubts.

"With this little power, how dare you invade the land? Is the leader of the demon tribe crazy? I wonder if they have never tasted the taste of failure!"

He secretly thought that at present, the demon clan could not even break through Qingzhou and could only linger on the periphery. If they threatened to make a comeback based on such strength alone, wouldn't it be a big joke in the world? You know, the human race dominates thirty-six huge states!

Elder Han looked at Jì Hou's puzzled expression and obviously felt that his idea was too simple.

"Do you think the monster race is all gone?" Elder Han looked at him as if he were a fool.

Jì Hou was stunned. He recalled what Elder Han had said before, and indeed mentioned that the demon clan was making a comeback, but now Elder Han said that it was not the full power of the demon clan.

"Didn't you just say that the demon clan is making a comeback? Are there still some theories that the demon clan is not making a comeback?" Jì Hou asked with a confused look on his face.

Elder Han explained patiently: "What I mean is that the demon tribe that raided Qingzhou was just an elite surprise attack force, intending to take Tianyang Pass in one fell swoop through blitzkrieg and avoid falling into the quagmire of a long-term war of attrition. Fortunately, their conspiracy did not succeed. .”

It turned out that this demon army also tried to bribe some generals of the Black Kun Army and colluded with both internal and external forces in an attempt to break through Tianyang Pass. The reason why Qingzhou's first line of defense was in crisis for a time was that those traitors who betrayed humanity were to blame.

Fortunately, the commander of the Black Kun Army, Heiping, was both wise and brave. He was keenly aware of the strangeness inside and cleverly set a trap. He used Tianyang Pass as a bait to lure the demon clan to reveal its flaws.

As expected, the Yaozu lost their minds in the face of the huge temptation. Not only were a large number of troops wiped out by the army led by Heiping, they also uncovered many lurking traitors and severely punished them, implicating the nine tribes as a warning to others. .

When Jì Hou understood all this, he couldn't help but have a deeper understanding of the complexity and cruelty of war.

"If you put it this way, when the main army of the demon clan and the main force of the human race arrive in full force, there will be a shocking battle, right?" Jì Hou asked thoughtfully.

Elder Han nodded, with a sad look in his eyes: "Yes, many lives will be lost by then." This upcoming battle will undoubtedly be a key battle that determines the fate of the human and demon races.

"Elder, there is one thing I don't understand. Why is there such a blood feud between the two races? In my impression, the demon race has never harmed the human race, and the human race rarely tortures and kills the demon race."

Jì Hou's eyes showed deep confusion. He looked up at Elder Han, his bright eyes full of searching for the truth in the world.

In his understanding, the demon clan does not feed on humans, and there are very few examples of humans harming the demon clan and extracting their bones to refine weapons or eat them. Why is there such a deep hatred between the two clans?

When Elder Han heard this, a deep brilliance flashed in his eyes, and he spoke slowly, as if he was telling a piece of history that has been dusted by time:

"Peaceful coexistence? You don't know something. Since ancient times, there have been irreconcilable conflicts between humans and demons. This has nothing to do with killing and bloodthirsty. It all stems from the mysterious and crucial immortal destiny. This is a battle of avenues.”

He further explained: "In this world, there is an invisible but real force of luck. It is called immortal luck. This luck is like the blessing of heaven. Only the ethnic group that gets it can Only in this way can we give birth to beings who can ascend to immortality. In the world of cultivation, the two most powerful ethnic groups are the human race and the demon race. However, there is only one destiny of immortality that determines life and death."

Elder Han's words were low and powerful, and it was as if he could see the tragic scene of corpses strewn across the fields and blood staining the sky between the words.
