Chapter 379: Lu Heng's Excessive Provocation

Lu Heng's words made Ao Tianxing ponder for a few moments, prompting him to start contemplating cautiously.

After a moment of contemplation, Ao Tianxing nodded and said, "The words of the Wolf God are absolutely right. Therefore, I shall first engage in a battle with the esteemed Lian Cangqing and then come to you once it is concluded."

After saying this, Lu Heng, this brash fellow, proceeded to walk towards the distance, leaving Lu Heng behind without any intention of minding him.

The objective, astonishingly, was to directly seek out Lian Cangqing.

Upon witnessing Ao Tianxing's departure, Lu Heng didn't utter a word of entreaty but instead stood firmly in his original position, watching Ao Tianxing's figure receding into the distance.

In the end, Ao Tianxing passed through the intersection and vanished at the far end of the street.

And upon witnessing this scene, Lu Heng also comprehended.

It appears that among the individuals moving around in this city, only he and Xiao Ai are the normal ones.

Ao Tianxing doesn't simply teleport to another location after leaving a street.

Why are he and Xiao Ai more unique in comparison?

Is it the sinister and eccentric shadow of the throne in the city causing mischief in the dark? Or is it some other reason?

There was an intuition in Lu Heng's heart, telling him that this matter should be related to the familiar sensation emanated by the shadow of the throne.

On the yellow earth throne at the center of this city, the mysterious presence of unknown origin undoubtedly shares certain similarities with Lu Heng.

Upon closer reflection, it becomes evident that the peculiar black shadow that abruptly emerged, transferring the palm strength of Lian Cangqing and Ao Tianxing to this location and shattering the seal, bears a faint resemblance to the aura of the figure on the throne.

Furthermore, having just investigated the situation underground, Lu Heng proceeded directly to the Qushui Village to witness the commotion... Perhaps it was Lu Heng's act of probing the situation within the seal that stirred up something in this city?

After Lu Heng departed, something in the city followed closely behind, coincidentally witnessing the clash between Lian Cangqing and Ao Tianxing, and intervened by redirecting their palm strength. Taking advantage of the chaos, was it able to break the seal?

Having roughly speculated the situation, Lu Heng shook his head and continued walking towards the front.

If the truth of the matter is indeed as he speculated, it is highly probable that something within this city fears Lu Heng, hence resorting to petty means to restrict his movements and confine him to the outskirts, out of reach of the core area.

And such restrictions on his movements from the opposing side will likely cease at the moment when the city's true nature is fully revealed.

After all, when the city truly manifests itself and all its murderous intent is fully unveiled, that entity may no longer fear Lu Heng...

Given the inexplicable situation within the city, Lu Heng is completely incapable of handling this group of demons without unleashing the power of the Heavenly Thunder Sword.

At the very least, these are five innate evil demons, making them a leading force in the demonic realm wherever they may be.

Even the combined strength of the Five Demons surpasses the power of the Three Demon Generals and Five Elders summoned by the Lord of All Demons in the Green Hell Cave.

Lu Heng merely wanted to feign indifference and probe the intentions of these demons before leaving without any intention of initiating violence. After all, engaging in a confrontation would be futile, as he is incapable of overcoming them.

Unexpectedly, this group of demons lacked the majestic demeanor of prominent figures in the demonic realm, fleeing decisively and without any hesitation.

The plan for Lu Heng to gather information instantly miscarried.

--He even wanted to inquire about the matter concerning Sun Yan!

Standing helplessly in the empty small square, Lu Heng fell silent for a moment, letting out a sigh.

"It seems that the time has come for the resurrection of the Heavenly Demon Lord..."

As the voice fell, Lu Heng's entire Heavenly Thunder Dao Foundation dissipated, while the Requiem Seal emitted an immensely potent Death Qi.

The once ethereal and celestial Lu Heng, clad in flowing white robes, instantaneously transformed into an eerie and ghostly presence.

Even that once gentle smile, now appeared inexplicably sinister and terrifying, sending shivers down one's spine.

After once again altering his appearance with a clever illusion, Lu Heng finally directed his gaze towards the sculpture before him.

Although those five demonic creatures escaped, this sculpture remains in its original place.

Lu Heng approached the sculpture, but when he came within five zhang of it, he sensed an intangible barrier that prevented any living being from approaching this artwork.

Only then did Lu Heng understand why those demons had formed a formation, and why the movements of the fiendish creature with a grimacing face and bared fangs at the center of the formation appeared so strenuous.

Without rashly breaching this invisible barrier, Lu Heng first circled around the periphery of the sculpture, carefully observing it in detail.

In Lu Heng's eyes, this sculpture appeared in a state of utter ruin, bearing the traces of weathering and fading, rendering its original form indiscernible.

However, judging from the situation in this small square, it must have once been a sacred and peaceful place, bustling with activity. And this sculpture, undoubtedly, must have been carved with divine charm, worshipped and revered by countless people.

However, now all these things have been erased by the passage of time.

What Lu Heng could see were only broken and blurred statues, with only rough outlines remaining, as well as crumbling walls and a desolate square splattered with pitch-black stains of blood, silently recounting the glory of the past.
