As expected, these dozen or so Saijin Demons were just a scouting team.
However, on the other side of the Two-World Gate, there weren’t as many Saijin Demons who had stayed behind as much as Su Jingxing, Zeng Busan, and the others had imagined.
On the other side of the Two-World Gate, there was only a third-realm Demon General leading more than 200 Saijin Demons to guard the passageway.
Apart from the third-realm Demon General, the strongest existence in the main army was a fifth-realm Demon King.
The other party was leading an army and was still fighting the last of the natives on the Continent of Divine Grace.
The Continent of Divine Grace was another world connected to Earth Star before ancient times.
Under the lead of the fifth-realm Demon King, the team that the second-realm Saijin Demon was part of descended on the Continent of Divine Grace. In just three months, they had conquered most of the territory. The last group of people would not survive for more than a few days under the encirclement of the fifth-realm Demon King.
Under the lead of the third-realm Demon General, this scouting team chanced upon the passageway that connected to Earth Star on the Continent of Divine Grace. Although it had been closed for countless years, it was not difficult to reopen it.
The Sajin Demon race was very proficient in passageways and array formations. They carried all kinds of tools and energy stones with them.
Earlier, Su Jingxing’s Primordial Spirit had used the power of the Law of Space to interfere with the opening of the Two-World Gates The team of demons immediately sensed it and took forceful measures.
Then, as soon as the passageway opened, they attacked.
This was the entire process.
It could be said that the last resistance team of the Continent of Divine Grace would not last long. It was bad news among bad news.
Su Jingxing’s Primordial Spirit could still kill a third-realm Demon General with some effort.
The other 200 or so Saijin Demons could also be dealt with.
But not a fifth-realm Demon King.
Especially since the second-realm Saijin Demon had said that they had more than one king, three of them.
Even if Su Jingxing’s Primordial Spirit used the Evil Energy Sweep of the Red Dragon reverse scale, it could at most kill two of them. The remaining one could still destroy Su Jingxing’s Primordial Spirit.
Of course, with the ability of the fifth level of the Cosmic Tower, Su Jingxing’s Primordial Spirit would not die.
However, the number of Heavenly Dao crystals it would take to “revive” once shall not be mentioned.
A fifth-realm Demon King was not the strongest power of the Sajin Demons.
Their strongest existence on the Continent of Divine Grace was a fifth-realm Demon King.
In other worlds, there was no lack of sixth-realm Demon Kings and seventh-realm Demon Emperors.
The second-realm Sajin Demon had said that if all three of their kings were to die,
the emperors of the race would personally descend!
With the arrival of a seventh-realm Demon Emperor, the Red Dragon reverse scale would be useless as well.
Unless Su Jingxing’s physical body left the Azure Dragon World and returned to Earth Star, otherwise, the threat of the Saijin Demon would not be eliminated.
Therefore, Su Jingxing’s Primordial Spirit sincerely prayed that the last resistance team on the Continent of Divine Grace could hold on for a longer time.
The longer the Continent of Divine Grace delayed, the more time Earth Star would have.
…
Bam!
With an explosion, the head of the second-realm Saijin Demon shattered. It was deader than dead.
Now that it had obtained the important information, Su Jingxing’s Primordial Spirit naturally wouldn’t keep it alive.
It extracted a card and quietly took it out to read. It was still a Black Body Card.
“Why did you kill it?” asked Zeng Busan in surprise as he looked at the incomplete corpse of the second-realm Saijin Demon.
“I’ve already finished the interrogation,” Su Jingxing’s Primordial Spirit said calmly.
“Huh? You… you’re done interrogating?” Zeng Busan was stunned.
Zeng Buqi, Bai Zhankong, Shi Que, Xiahou Chuanwu, and the others were also stunned.
Su Jingxing’s Primordial Spirit was interrogating the demon just now?
There was no sound. Was it done directly through the soul?
In his shock, Bai Zhankong suddenly came back to his senses and asked, “What information did you get from the interrogation?”
As for how and when Su Jingxing’s Primordial Spirit interrogated the second-realm demon, it was automatically ignored.
“Continent of Divine Grace.”
Su Jingxing’s Primordial Spirit replied, “The other world connected to Earth Star is called the Continent of Divine Grace. In other words, there’s also a Green Cloud Mountain on the other side. These demons are called the Saijin Demon race. They…”
It quickly recounted the important information obtained from the interrogation.
In the end, Su Jingxing’s Primordial Spirit said in a low voice, “The passageway that connects to Earth Star on Green Cloud Mountain on the other side is mainly done through a demonic artifact. As long as we destroy this demonic artifact, we can temporarily close the Two-World Gate!”
Silence.
Shi Que, Gong Junlian, Xiahou Chuanwu, and the others fell silent after hearing the news.
Firstly, this news was too shocking. Secondly, Earth Star was finished.
This Saijin Demon race was so powerful that it made one despair. Given their strength, even with the entire world’s strength, they would not be able to stop the invasion of the Saijin Demon race!
However, there were also those who reacted quickly.
“What do you mean, Martial Sage Kong?” Bai Zhankong was the first to come back to his senses. He looked at Su Jingxing’s Primordial Spirit and pondered over its words. “Martial Sage Kong, are you thinking of…”
“That’s right. The only solution now is to go to the other side of the passageway and temporarily close the Two-World Gate!”
Su Jingxing’s Primordial Spirit said in a deep voice, “This is the best solution. As long as the Two-World Gate is closed, even a king of the Sajin Demon race will have to spend a lot of time and effort to open it again.”
“And this gives us buffer time to think of other ways.
“Go to the other side?” Zeng Busan murmured as he came back to his senses. “If we go there and close the passageway, will we be stuck there?
“Is there a need to ask?” Zeng Buqi glanced at him disdainfully. “The Two-World Gate has closed. How are you going to come back?”
“Doesn’t that mean we’re dead meat if we go?” Dongfang Pochu blurted out subconsciously.
As soon as he finished speaking, he realized what he had said. His face flushed red, and he lowered his head, not daring to make a sound.
But everyone present understood.
That’s right, there was no return.
Closing the Two-World Gate and losing the way back was one.
Being surrounded by the Saijin Demons on the other side was the second reason.
Not everyone was Su Jingxing’s Primordial Spirit and could easily kill the Saijin Demons.
It took the combined efforts of Shi Que, Zeng Busan, and the others to barely kill the dozen or so Saijin Demons.
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul was the one who took care of the strongest second-realm Saijin Demon, as well as the remaining half of the demons
Without Su Jingxing’s Primordial Spirit, this scouting team alone was enough to crush them.
The Sajin Demons were so powerful that if they went to the other side, they would be like sheep entering a tiger’s den. They would definitely die!
At this thought, everyone’s expressions changed.
On the other hand, after cursing, Zeng Busi took a few steps forward and said seriously, “Count me in! How can I miss such a major event that will leave one’s name in history!”
“Count me in too,” said Bai Zhankong coolly. “White Emperor City is responsible for protecting Earth Star. No matter how dangerous the road ahead is, I will move forward.”
“That’s right, that’s right. This is our duty.” Zeng Busan laughed dryly. “Besides, we can let our physical bodies go over and leave our Essence Souls here. Or, our Essence Souls go over and our physical bodies stay here. This way, we won’t be completely dead, right?”
“That’s right!”
Dongfang Pochu’s eyes lit up. “Our physical bodies and Essence Souls can be separated. No matter which one goes, we can keep the other alive.”
“Yeah, I didn’t think of that earlier.”
“Haha, I’ll come too!”
“You guys are great, you’ll go to your deaths together, right?”
“…”
The others echoed in agreement.
Su Jingxing’s Primordial Spirit listened to their discussion. It opened its mouth and closed it again.
Forget it, I shouldn’t dampen their confidence.
Such matters could not be forced to begin with.
It’s not easy to convince oneself to die unselfishly for the sake of Earth Star.
There was no need for Su Jingxing’s Primordial Spirit to increase the threat at this time.
In most cases, if either the physical body or the Essence Soul were to die, the other could indeed continue to live. The duration depended on the situation.
However, against the Sajin Demon, given the Primordial Spirit’s understanding of them, they also specialized in targeting the soul.
They were also aware of the exact situation of the human race’s divine martial arts system.
So they usually destroy consciousness directly.
In other words, when the Essence Soul was killed, the consciousness would also be completely destroyed.
Without consciousness, how could the physical body survive?
