The gate

/*unedited*/

While everyone was in a panic and in a state of helplessness, Shin Jiao has slowly but meticulously pieced out every piece of information he got from the glasses. Then with the speed of the glasses in computing the result, it didn't take long enough for it to show Shin Jiao the probability and the solution to his problem.

There are two options.

The first one is to create a hole in the cloud defense array as it is actually a moving formation. If Shin Jiao could time it out and hit it exactly with an array breaking formation slab, then he can break the defensive barrier. But the problem is he didn't have time to watch the movement of the dark cloud.

The second option is the fastest but the most dangerous. This is because there is a chance that Shin Jiao might let someone or something inside the gate as it would open it within the window of time of around 5 minutes before it would close.

What Shin Jiao needs to do is to make another gate formation outside of the current gate array formation which would supply energy to the formation and directly open it in haste.

But this way is too troublesome because, if he made just one mistake, the whole stadium would implode taking everyone with it to who knows where.

But Shin Jiao is confident with his calculations with the help of the glasses, so he chooses this option which is more dangerous but fast enough to save Fey Ouyang's life.

Shin Jiao didn't waste time as he immediately saves Fey Ouyang under the dumbfounded look on everyone's eyes.

He took some rapid hemostatic pill which he bought while coming here and gave it to her. Then with a low-level spirit stone on hand, he slowly guided the flow of Qi along with the natural elements to slowly replenish Fey Ouyang's Qi depleted dantian.

After a while, Shin Jiao slowly put her on the ground as he saw her expression gradually change for the better.

After seeing his daughter slowly recover, Gu Ouyang heaves a sigh of relief and quickly took some antidote and closed his eyes to recover his wounded body.

"Young man, what's your name?" the old man on the side asks Shin Jiao with a smile.

The old man is actually the most powerful cultivator in the group. He is also the special guest of this event and the head of the council of elders in the kingdom.

If Elder Jugs saw this, he would be stupefied, because that old man is his superior. And right now his superior is talking nicely to a young man who is only in the middle stages of the gold core realm.

And true to this, everyone in the area is also looking at this situation in disbelief.

"Senior.. this student's name is Shin Jiao. I'm a member of the martial technique department from the Great Wu Academy." Shin Jiao said while bowing in respect.

He is not a foolish man as he knows that the person in front of him is a very powerful individual. If he has the physique of a nascent realm expert like before then he would not fear this old man, now he is not sure.

The old man is showing the cultivation level of a late-stage infant soul realm cultivator. But with the fluctuation of his Qi, Shin Jiao knows that something is amiss and he wouldn't dare try his luck.

"Hmm.. interesting. You are really proficient when it comes to arrays. I never would have thought that you could break that array like that.. amazing.. truly amazing." The old man muttered.

"I am Long Gang Wu." The old man said while patting Shin Jiao's shoulder.

"Thank you for your praise senior. But I'm afraid it's not finished yet." Shin Jiao said as he turned his gaze up.

Everyone has already noticed the huge crevice in the sky of the stadium. It's like a rift in space as dark and deep colors of the abyss can be seen from inside it.

After a while, everyone saw two huge clawed hands appearing from inside the crevice.

Then the creature's head slowly emerges as the creature tried to crawl through the crack.

"That's a half-opened gate, but it's not a dimensional gate." A middle-aged man said.

"I agree, I think that this gate connects out continent to another continent from this world."

"You mean a really long distance portal?"

"Yeah.. But what confuses me is where it is connected to."

"Look at that creature and its skin color. Blood red skin, huge horned head, pointed ears, and huge figure.. I think this is what in the books called demons."

"You mean demon beasts? I think it's different."

"They're not demon beasts, but demons.. they are born from the deep parts of the abyss and feeds on dark emotions and souls. They especially like to feed on human flesh the most and other beasts. Everywhere these things go, devastation follows."

As the people discussed calmly while looking at the emerging creature from the crevice, they seem to be showing interest rather than fear. It is not often that they can see other creatures from another place. So right now, they felt a little excited at the same time showing signs of being cautious.

Then not long later, the large creature came falling to the ground near the edge of the stage.

It was a 3 meters tall creature, red-skinned, and with bulging muscles. It is wearing metal armor, and on its back are two huge axes.

"Haha.. So this is how the people on this side look like. You are smaller and are like ants. Haha.." the demon said in a strong loud voice.

Everyone in the stage is looking at the creature with curiosity and cautiously, although they are not afraid yet still, the creature looks menacing and vile.

"This thing doesn't have any Qi fluctuation, but I can sense a strong yet powerful aura in its body."

"Is this what the creatures from the other place look like?"

"They look hideous."

"Umm.. they look like those monsters in the forest."

"Well, just have to subdue it and then see what it looks like inside."

"Haha.."

When the creature heard that the people in this place talk differently, it felt confused. Although it could understand them, however, the way they talk is weird for it to fully understand the small black-haired people in front of it. What confuses the demon is that those people seem to not be in a defensive mode after seeing it. This made the demon felt elated, he would have a nice time fighting against these people.

When the portal was opened, the demon was elated and wanted to run inside immediately. This is because, on the other side, their forces have been subdued by the mages.

All of his comrades have been defeated by those crazy mages and they wanted to find a new place to conquer. Then suddenly the demon Queen took over the throne after the capture of her husband the demon King. She began to research a way for her people to escape from the oppression and try to conquer another land.

Their first trial was successful and the first ones who had entered the portal were victorious and were able to conquer a land full of beast people. Because the demons look like them, the place they went to drop down their guard and were easily subdued. And now the demons are marching forth entering the portal in droves. But what made them helpless is the condition of the land they entered. It was a barren land where lust forest and greeneries are nowhere to be found. What they saw in there is endless sand as far as the eye can see.

But for the demons, this is already good enough as long as they can run far away from the place they once called home.

"This place is not too bad.. If I can come back and tell this to the queen, then we can lead the army to conquer this land. But first I need to kill these pests." The demon said as his red eyes turned towards the many tiny people in front of it.

"You will submit before me!" the demon bellowed in a strong and loud voice.

When the cultivators on the stage saw this, they frown and knitted their brows. They could not believe that some beast creature would command the mighty cultivators to submit before them.

One of the young men in the crowd sneered and stepped forward.

"You lowly creature.. you don't even have Qi in your body. You're just some tall powerless mutt barking. Let me teach you a lesson then." The young man said as he prepares to launch an attack on the demon.

Shin Jiao took a glance at the situation and frowns.

"So the portal connects to the land of Magus. Hmm.. this can be a viable way to travel to that place and investigate more about the power of the mages." Shin Jiao thought as he wanted to help those who are close to him improve their own mana cultivation.

"That demon is a rank 5 demon. This might be a big problem." Shin Jiao muttered.

He can now see the natural energy undulation which covers the body of the creature. From the looks of it, the demon might be a really powerful general on the other side or a captain. If it's the first then he would not worry too much of the power of the demons, however, if this demon is just a captain then it would be a huge problem.

It could only mean that the invading demons are more powerful and dangerous.

While thinking, Shin Jiao heard something and suddenly turn his gaze back to the demon.

And then he was stunned.historical
