Everyone was worried, but Chen Qing's move surprised everyone!
Chapter 53 Everyone was worried, but Chen Qing's move surprised everyone!
Chen Qing gazed at the distant sky, where demon gods and demon saints of the demon race were rushing towards this place.
He waited quietly there, preparing to kill them on the spot once they arrived.
In his eyes, these demon gods and demon saints of the demon race were all dead. Since the demon race had slaughtered the human race, he didn't need to think too much about it. He would rather kill the wrong person than let one go.
Di Jun was unaware of Chen Qing's thoughts. At this moment, Di Jun was waiting for the arrival of the Demon God and the Demon Saint. Once they arrived, he would set up the Zhou Tian Star Array and use its power to kill Chen Qing.
After all, if it were a one-on-one fight, even his second brother, Donghuang Taiyi, was no match for Chen Qing, so how could he possibly be a match for Chen Qing?
When it comes to one-on-one combat, he has to admire Donghuang Taiyi. After all, among the demon race, Donghuang Taiyi is the strongest after Nuwa.
However, at this moment, Donghuang Taiyi was no match for Chen Qing in their fight, so his strength was even less than Donghuang Taiyi's, let alone Chen Qing's.
Di Jun did not lose his mind because Donghuang Taiyi was seriously injured. On the contrary, he was very clear-headed and just waited quietly for the arrival of the army behind him.
At this moment, Di Jun was helping Donghuang Taiyi recover from his injuries while waiting for the army to arrive.
Chen Qing glanced at Di Jun, already knowing what Di Jun was thinking, but he didn't care at all and just waited.
"Master, why not act now and kill Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi right here? What are you waiting for?"
The Mirage Dragon expressed its question with great confusion, looking at Donghuang Taiyi and Dijun in front of it.
He was very reluctant to accept this. His master clearly had the ability to kill Donghuang Taiyi and Dijun right here, but instead of making a move, he waited here.
Chen Qing glanced at the void, shook his head, and said slowly.
"No rush, I'm waiting for the demon army. They'll be here soon. Once they arrive, I'll slaughter them all here."
Chen Qing glanced at the void, his eyes piercing through the endless void, and landed directly in the Nuwa Palace, murmuring his words.
"I wonder what you will choose then—to help the demon race or to ignore it?"
Chen Qing murmured something softly, then looked away and closed her eyes to rest.
At this moment, it wasn't just Nuwa who was watching; Taiqing Laozi, Yuanshi Tianzun, Tongtian Jiaozhu, Jieyin Shengren, and Zhunti Shengren were all watching as well.
The powerful beings in the void were also watching and waiting for the great battle between the two sides.
"Brother, you should leave this place as soon as possible and return to the Heavenly Court. Once you get to the Heavenly Court, I don't believe it can destroy my demon race's Heavenly Court."
Upon hearing this, Di Jun was not in a hurry at all.
"Second brother, you only need to recover from your injuries. I will wait for the army to arrive. Once the army arrives, I will set up the Zhou Tian Star Formation and annihilate this man here."
Upon hearing this, Donghuang Taiyi opened his mouth as if to say something more, but thinking of the power of the Zhou Tian Star Array, he stopped talking and quietly recovered from his injuries.
With the help of the Sun Star's origin, his injuries are slowly healing, and he has already recovered quite a bit.
At this moment, the demon army in the distance was already close to the shore of the East Sea.
"Everyone, fly at full speed! The Demon Emperor is still waiting for us. We must quickly provide support to His Majesty the Demon Emperor."
The leader was one of the Ten Great Demon Gods, possessing the cultivation of a Quasi-Saint.
After this person finished speaking, everyone remained silent and continued flying at full speed.
The group moved quickly, and in just a short while, they were already not far from the coast of the East China Sea.
At this moment, Chen Qing opened his eyes, looked at the Demon God and Demon Saint in the distance, and a cold smile appeared on his lips.
"We're here! After waiting for so long, we've finally arrived."
Chen Qing said it calmly, his eyes expressionless.
Upon hearing this, the mirage dragon looked towards the distant sky, but saw nothing.
At this moment, Chen Qing's great battle with the demon race has already attracted the attention of countless cultivators in the East Sea.
The members of the Jie Sect also felt the aftershocks of the previous battle, and they all left their respective cultivation sites and rushed here.
They were puzzled. The East Sea was the training ground of their teacher, the Tongtian Sect Master. Who would dare to wage war here?
When they arrived, they all looked at Chen Qing, Di Jun, and Donghuang Taiyi with surprise in their eyes.
Everyone knew Chen Qing. When they listened to the Dao in Biyou Palace, Chen Qing never asked them questions about his own doubts about the Great Dao. Although they were puzzled, they never thought about it deeply.
After all, this was Chen Qing's own business, and as his fellow disciples, they couldn't say anything.
At this moment, the Three Immortals and Zhao Gongming stood together, looking at Chen Qing standing on top of the Mirage Dragon's head, then at Donghuang Taiyi recovering from his injuries, and then at Dijun, their eyes showing surprise.
"Brother, is that Senior Brother Chen Qing fighting against Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Gongming shook his head in bewilderment.
"I came with you all, but I was unaware of it."
"However, although I know that Senior Brother Chen Qing is very strong, I'm afraid he can't fight Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi alone."
"After all, even among the great supernatural beings, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi are top-tier in strength. Although Senior Brother Chen Qing is powerful, he is not powerful enough to face both of them alone."
Inside Biyou Palace, Daoist Duobao went directly to the Tongtian Sect Leader and respectfully bowed to him.
"Teacher, Junior Brother Chen Qing is fighting a fierce battle with Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi. Should Teacher intervene to help Junior Brother Chen Qing?"
"After all, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi were the Heavenly Emperor and the Eastern Emperor of the demon race, the founders of the demon race, and their strength was at the level of a great supernatural being, with a great reputation in the prehistoric world."
"And will the teacher intervene to help Junior Brother Chen Qing and prevent him from getting hurt?"
Upon hearing this, the Tongtian Sect Leader glanced at Duobao and then said something in a very calm tone.
"You just need to watch quietly here; you don't need to worry about anything else."
After the Tongtian Sect Leader finished speaking, he immediately used his supernatural powers to present the scene on the shore of the East China Sea.
Upon hearing this, Duobao could only watch helplessly.
The Master of the Heavens looked towards the shore of the East China Sea, a cold smile appearing on his lips.
He knew Chen Qing's strength. At this moment, Chen Qing was only displaying a small part of his strength. He still had his Dao Body, Supreme Dharma Form, Past Body, Present Body, and Future Body, all of which had never appeared before.
At this moment, the Tongtian Sect Leader was not worried at all about his disciples suffering losses. Instead, he was concerned about whether Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi would be killed by his disciples.
Thinking of this, the Tongtian Sect Leader glanced at the endless void and looked towards Nuwa's Palace. He wondered what choice Nuwa would make.
On the shores of the East Sea, countless demon armies appeared, with hundreds of demon gods and demon saints heading towards the East Sea shores.
Chen Qing looked calmly at the demon army, his eyes very indifferent.
"Di Jun, the army you have been waiting for has arrived. Come on, let me see what tricks you have up your sleeve."
Upon hearing this, Di Jun's eyes narrowed, but his expression remained unchanged. He looked at Chen Qing and spoke slowly.
"You just severely injured my second brother, so I will kill you here. Without you, let's see what the human race can do. I will let all the great supernatural beings in the prehistoric world know that anyone who dares to oppose the demon race will eventually perish."
After saying this, Di Jun turned around and looked at the army of demons.
The demon army looked at Di Jun and immediately spoke loudly.
"Greetings to the Demon Emperor, greetings to the Eastern Emperor."
The sound was so loud that it shook the heavens.
Chen Qing's expression remained unchanged, showing no concern whatsoever. In his eyes, these inequalities among the demon race were nothing more than trivial matters.
After stabilizing his injuries, Donghuang Taiyi got up and headed towards Dijun.
Di Jun looked at the large army of demons, a solemn expression on his face.
"The array is formed by spreading out the heavens."
With a single command, he ordered the demon army to set up the Zhou Tian Star Array.
Upon hearing this, the demons immediately began to move in different directions to set up the Zhou Tian Star Array.
Chen Qing watched as the demon army set up the Zhou Tian Star Array, but he didn't care at all. Instead, he waited quietly.
As Yunxiao watched the demon race begin to set up the great formation, his heart tightened.
"Isn't Senior Brother Chen Qing being a bit overconfident? Once the demon race sets up the Zhou Tian Star Array, how will Senior Brother Chen Qing deal with it?"
"We have all witnessed the power of the Zhou Tian Star Formation. Even for a sage, breaking the formation would not be an easy task."
As Yunxiao spoke, he looked at Chen Qing with a worried expression in his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Gongming decisively shook his head.
"Senior Brother Chen Qing must have his reasons for doing this. Let's not say anything and just observe quietly."
"Yes, big sister, don't worry. You have to trust Senior Brother Chen Qing's strength."
Qiongxiao also spoke, looking at Yunxiao.
Yunxiao said no more, but quietly watched what was in front of her, her beautiful eyes fixed on Chen Qing, and the worry between her brows did not disappear.
In the field,
Chen Qing glanced at the demon race setting up the Zhou Tian Star Array, his expression calm.
After the demon race set up the Zhou Tian Star Array, the void underwent changes.
Once the Zhou Tian Star Array was set up, it began to draw in ancient stars, and endless stellar power appeared, flowing towards this world. In just a moment, the previously bright sky disappeared, replaced by a starry sky.
In the starry sky, three hundred and sixty-five ancient stars appeared. These were the main stars in the Star Sea. At this moment, under the summoning of the Zhou Tian Star Array, they directly projected their phantom images.
As the power of the stars continued to gather, countless stars appeared in the sky.
Chen Qing looked up at the starry sky, his expression unchanged.
At this moment, he looked at the endless starry sky, but he didn't care at all.
"Master, this is quite a large-scale operation. Previously, the demon race used the Zhou Tian Star Array to fight against the witch race's Twelve Capital Heaven Array. In that great battle, many demon saints died. I didn't expect them to be replenished so quickly."
Upon hearing this, Chen Qing let out a cold laugh.
"The demon race has a large population, and those few casualties can be replenished as long as they are given some time."
"The number of demon gods and demon saints who died in the last great war was nothing to the vast demon race. Given some time, the demon race can easily replenish its ranks."
Upon hearing this, the mirage dragon immediately fell silent and quietly gazed at the starry sky.
The starry sky is beautiful, and the countless shining stars are beautiful, but at this moment, in the eyes of the Mirage Dragon, there is an infinite danger.
With the Zhou Tian Star Array set up, Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi immediately flew towards the array.
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief when they arrived at the main formation.
They originally thought Chen Qing would stop them from setting up the Zhou Tian Star Array, but to their surprise, Chen Qing did not stop them at all, and instead let them set it up.
Now that the Zhou Tian Star Array has been set up, the two looked at each other and saw the relief in each other's eyes.
Di Jun looked at Chen Qing outside the great formation and sneered twice.
"snort!"
"I never expected you to be so arrogant as to allow my demon race to set up the Zhou Tian Star Array so easily."
"Since that's the case, I'll give you a dignified death later, so you won't die too horribly."
Chen Qing listened to Di Jun's words, looked at the Zhou Tian Star Array, his expression unchanged, and simply stared at it.
"Is the Zhou Tian Star Array really that powerful? Why don't I feel it?"
"Perhaps you think the Zhou Tian Star Array is very powerful, but in my eyes, it's nothing special."
"Don't forget, the Zhou Tian Star Formation was also broken before. The Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation of the Witch Clan broke your Zhou Tian Star Formation."
"Even the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation is no match for the divine powers of a sage. Since that's the case, why should I be afraid?"
Upon hearing this, Di Jun's expression turned somewhat grim. After all, what Chen Qing said was the truth. In the previous great battle, their demon race's Zhou Tian Xing Chen Grand Array was indeed broken by the witch race's Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Grand Array, and the Twelve Capital Heavenly Gods and Demons Grand Array was also no match for the divine power of the Sage Nuwa.
But that was Nuwa, the Sage. Who was Nuwa? She was a sage of the highest order, having attained the status of a sage, and could rely on the power of the Heavenly Dao.
And what about Chen Qing? He hasn't become a saint yet, so how can he be compared to the saint Nuwa?
Thinking of this, Di Jun sneered.
"snort!"
"This is utterly absurd and incredibly arrogant."
"Who is Nuwa, the Sage? How dare you compare yourself to a sage?"
"The Sage Nuwa is an existence who has attained the status of a sage, a supreme being with boundless supernatural powers. How could you possibly compare to a sage?"
"Very well, since that's the case, then I'll show you just how powerful the Zhou Tian Xing Chen Formation really is."
After saying this, Di Jun glanced at the group of demon gods around him, and then gave a cold order.
"The Zhou Tian Star Array is spinning, the power of the Milky Way is condensing, kill them!"
Upon hearing this, the demon gods and demon saints who were setting up the formation immediately channeled their magic power into the small flags in front of them and began to activate the Zhou Tian Star Array.
As they activated it, the starry sky began to change.
Countless stars shone brightly, releasing boundless star power that spread outwards and finally gathered in one place.
As the starlight continued to gather, it eventually coalesced into a pillar of light.
The pillar of starlight emitted endless starlight, and its immense power pressed down on all directions.
Di Jun looked at the pillar of starlight, a look of satisfaction in his eyes.
Since the last battle, he has gone into seclusion to work with Donghuang Taiyi, Fuxi, Kunpeng, Bai Ze, and the Ten Great Demon Gods to continuously improve the Zhou Tian Star Array.
At this moment, although the Zhou Tian Star Array was not yet fully perfected, its power was already greater than before.
Looking at the pillar of starlight, Di Jun no longer hesitated and gave the order directly.
"Starlight pillars, attack for this emperor!"
At Di Jun's command, an attack was immediately ordered.
Upon hearing this order, the demon gods immediately ceased their hesitation and began to activate the small flags in front of them, guiding the pillars of starlight to launch an attack.
Guided by the demon god, the pillar of starlight began to fall towards Chen Qing.
Countless beams of starlight descended, carrying immense power, heading straight for Chen Qing.
Chen Qing merely glanced at the countless pillars of starlight, his eyes showing no emotion whatsoever.
In his eyes, the power of these starlight pillars was still somewhat lacking.
He calmly placed his right hand, made a graceful grasp towards the void, and uttered two words indifferently.
"Annihilation!"
As he finished speaking, endless power of annihilation appeared and began to gather into a large black hand.
As soon as the black hand appeared, it exuded boundless power, spreading outwards. At the same time, a massive aura rushed towards the pillars of light.
A giant hand reached out to meet the pillars of light, catching the falling starlight in its grasp. Then, it continuously lifted the pillars upwards to prevent them from falling.
This change shocked everyone; they hadn't expected Chen Qing to withstand the attack of the Zhou Tian Star Array all by himself.
Everyone was shocked, never expecting Chen Qing to be so powerful.
In the distance, a group of disciples of the Jie Sect looked at Chen Qing with awe in their eyes.
The three immortals and Zhao Gongming looked at Chen Qing with reverence in their eyes.
Inside Biyou Palace, Duobao watched this scene with wide eyes, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Only then did he understand why his teacher had rejected his suggestion and told him to just watch quietly.
