Martial God: Grinding from Mortal Flesh to Immortality Chapter 489 - 244: Demon Invasion, Xiangyang City Falls, The

For the martial artists of the Great Qin Dynasty, the way of heaven is a shackle wrapped around them, and it’s the most despairing shackle of all.

Countless Great Qin martial artists, pressed forward and reached the limits of their physical bodies, creating the ntal Realm Map to make the martial artists stronger and prevent them from becoming food for demons.

No one knows how many predecessors among the Great Qin martial artists tried to break the shackles of heaven, hoping to see a glimr of hope.

No one knows how many supre Great Grandmasters challenged the shackles of heaven again and again.

But in the end... they still failed!

The shackles of heaven have beco an insurmountable obstacle for them.

Amidst the crowd, emotions were incredibly low for people like Gao Yao, but only Lu Sheng slightly squinted his eyes, gazing up to the heavens.

"That recent attack by the supre Great Grandmaster reached the peak of the sixth stage... Yet it still didn’t break open the sky?"

Lu Sheng slightly squinted his eyes.

However, quickly, a slight smile appeared at the corner of Lu Sheng’s mouth.

"Though the attack at the peak of the sixth stage didn’t break the sky, it’s evident that the sky’s shaking has grown more intense!"

With Lu Sheng’s perception, he could clearly see that the sky covering the entire planet was now rippling like waves with the supre Great Grandmaster’s action.

The shaking almost reached the critical point of the sky.

"So... the defense ability of the sky differs between attacks from within and attacks from the outside."

"From outside, even if my true form attacked with full force, it couldn’t shake the sky. But if attacking from within... as long as the intensity surpasses the peak of the sixth stage, even just reaching the boundary of the seventh stage, it’s very likely to break through the sky."

"Once the sky is breached, my true form from the outside can descend into this world!"

Lu Sheng spoke softly.

No doubt, the actions of this supre Great Grandmaster gave Lu Sheng a more straightforward understanding of the sky’s defensive capabilities.

The defense of the sky focuses on preventing beings from other worlds from entering this world, but those who live within this world, that seventh-stage being... actually have the ability to break this sky, though for so reason... they don’t.

"Moreover, that seventh-stage being is very likely a demon."

"What is he trying to achieve by doing so?"

"ntal Realm... Martial Artist..."

Lu Sheng quickly pondered, faintly sensing a thread of understanding appearing in his mind, but was just shy of grasping it.

While Lu Sheng was contemplating, strange creatures began appearing outside Xiangyang City.

These creatures’ eyes flickered with crimson light, and looking at Xiangyang City, they exhibited a greedy look.

The masses of black mist, seemingly brimming with life force, enveloped these demons like black waves, crashing toward Xiangyang City.

As these strange creatures appeared, they were imdiately sensed by Lu Sheng’s perception.

"Hmm?"

Lu Sheng abruptly gazed outside Xiangyang City, his brows furrowed slightly.

"This is... demons? Have demons launched an attack on Xiangyang City??"

"And right at this mont when the supre Great Grandmaster died, isn’t it... too much of a coincidence!"

A slight unease stirred within Lu Sheng’s heart, as he distinctly felt that the slender thread in his mind seed to be getting closer to him.

"Not good, demons are attacking the city!!"

At this ti, the martial artist soldiers guarding the walls of Xiangyang City also discovered the presence of these demons and imdiately issued an angry roar.

Accompanied by urgent bell tolls that suddenly reverberated throughout Xiangyang City.

Dong! Dong! Dong!!

The deep sound made the martial artist community, already overwheld by despair, even more uneasy.

"Damn it, why would the demons attack Xiangyang City now!!"

Gao Yao’s face slightly changed, without ti to think much, he imdiately grabbed Lu Sheng and several companions, rapidly leaving the square.

"Demons have invaded the city, we need to break through quickly. If fortune favors us... we might manage to escape!"

Gao Yao said quickly, pulling Lu Sheng and the companions, continuing to flee out of Xiangyang City.

Gao Yao’s words left Lu Sheng slightly surprised: "Brother Gao, shouldn’t we resist a bit?"

Gao Yao didn’t respond, rely his expression grew much darker, and after a mont, he spoke in a hoarse voice.

"The reason Xiangyang City could resist the demon invasion was because the supre Great Grandmaster sat in command, allowing the citizens of Xiangyang City to live in peace. But now..."

"With the supre Great Grandmaster dead, even if Xiangyang City is the imperial city of the Great Qin Dynasty, it absolutely cannot repel the demon invasion. Staying here only makes us fodder for these demons!"

Gao Yao’s voice was filled with despair, obviously even he, as an Innate Martial Artist, had little hope for Xiangyang City’s survival.

Lu Sheng lightly furrowed his brow, not expecting such a situation.

But when Lu Sheng’s perception swept over those demons, he could only accept this harsh truth.
