Chapter 64 Rescue
c_t;The sky in Yanyang Realm has completely turned into a dead gray.
There are dark clouds everywhere covering the sky and blocking the sunlight.
Large black raindrops fell from the black mist, falling on the rocks, causing them to rot, falling on the grass and trees, causing the grass and trees to wither, and falling on the birds, animals, fish and insects, and you can see that every life makes a mournful cry. In the painful struggle, the flesh and blood faded away, leaving only an empty skeleton, leaving only two points of ghostly fire. What's more, even the skeleton remains, only a ray of residual soul is left to combine with the aura, turn into a pure ghost, and join the endless army of ghosts.
The land of Yanyang Realm has completely become a world of undead.
There are corpses everywhere. The ferocious ghosts, erratic resentful souls, immortal zombies, and all kinds of ghosts with deep Yin Qi and wailing ghosts are walking on the earth one after another, committing crimes during the day and causing harm in broad daylight.
There are those with ferocious temperaments who cannibalize human flesh, drink human blood, and feed on human beings. Wherever they go, corpses are strewn in the fields, and none of them are dead; Po, died in a strange state, even though the corpse was intact, he died with eyes closed; there are also those who like to eat the seven emotions and six desires, either incarnate as a human, or live in the human body, and mix with the crowd, confuse right and wrong, confuse right and wrong, instigate internal fighting, stimulate hatred and jealousy , fear and other emotions, they chase them away and feast on them. Although they are not killed, the damage caused is no less than the former, making the cultivators in the human world unable to resist.
Despite this, Yanyang cultivators still showed a strong spirit of resistance. Under the leadership of cultivators from various places, they unite together to fight to the death against the invading ghosts. So you can see burning fireworks in the sky from time to time, and ghosts are constantly falling from the sky with burning flames. There are flames that boil the black rain and the black mist evaporates. Of course, one cultivator after another fell down.
Some of them died when they died, turning into spiritual rain to nourish the land, and they continued to fight even after death. There are also people who remain immortal after death and turn into ghosts to turn against their brothers, which makes many people extremely sad and angry.
Standing on the tower of spiral flames, Yuan Tianzhong could see all of this clearly.
Everywhere in the field of vision, there is black smoke rising, blood swirling, burning flames, black ash mixed with the black mist of the underworld, forming a desperate scene of doomsday. Desperate cries break through the sky, bringing endless sadness.
"Sect Master!" The young man named Xiao Wu flew back with black ash all over his body, and knelt down at the feet of Yuan Tianzhong: "Baishan City, Guangyao City, Lanshui City, Yingyan Mansion has fallen, and Ziyan City is under attack Besieged by a large number of ghosts!"
Yuan Tianzhong looked at the black sky and responded with a simple voice: "I know. [Please go here to read the latest chapter of this book]"
Xiao Wu looked up in shock: "Sect Master..."
Yuan Tianzhong said: "I know what you are wondering about.
However, in the war of cultivating the world, the battle is not about the gains and losses of a city or a place, but about people. As long as people are still around...the ghost tide will eventually recede. "
Xiao Wu's whole body trembled when he heard this: "But those civilians!"
Yuan Tianzhong sighed and shook his head: "We can't save it. Let them shrink and take away as many people as they can."
"But Master, handing people over to the underworld is equivalent to sending soldiers to them. No matter for others or ourselves, we don't..." Before Xiao Wu finished speaking, Yuan Tianzhong waved his sleeves and handed Xiao Wu over. Wu flew out directly.
How could he not understand the truth of leaving civilians who were too late to move to the underworld to wait for the enemy?
However, the strength of the newly born ghosts is limited after all, and the truly terrifying ones are the big ghosts hiding behind them. Only by concentrating on dealing with those powerful beings can we protect Yan Yang. For this reason, sacrifice is inevitable.
Thinking of this, Yuan Tianzhong also sighed: "This is fate!"
His eyes were blurred, as if he had seen some deliberate arrangement in the deep sea of fate.
——————————
Baigui Yexingzhou finally broke out of the whirlpool and came to the ground.
After wandering in the underworld for so long, Tang Jie finally returned to the human world, but he didn't expect it to be like this.
There are ghosts running rampant all around, wreaking havoc on the mountains and rivers. Looking around, there is a scene of mourning.
This invasion of the underworld has changed the color of mountains and rivers, and devastated all living beings.
Facing this scene, Tang Jie couldn't help but feel sad and angry. But he couldn't help it. He took a long breath and said, "Sara!"
"Honored Lord!" Ghost Eagle respectfully replied.
Tang Jie pointed at the ghosts scurrying around: "Collect all these lonely ghosts for me."
Ghost Eagle looked hesitant and said: "I'm afraid the Hundred Ghost Night Boat cannot accommodate so many ghost soldiers."
Tang Jie said: "There is no need to accommodate them, let them follow, as long as they can accept the command."
Those unconscious ghosts only act on instinct, and it is impossible to accept orders. However, with the presence of psychic grass, it is still possible to force the ghosts to accept the most basic instructions. However, if it forms a war and exerts the power of unity, it is completely out of the question. Yeah, just a bunch of cannon fodder.
Even so, controlling many ghosts still consumes a lot of energy from psychic grass. Compared with truly elite ghosts, it is a task that outweighs the gains and losses. But some things cannot be measured purely by income. If ghosts are allowed to run rampant, it will bring a lot of disasters to surrounding cities. Although disaster is inevitable, Tang Jie always wants to save as many people as possible.
Containing ghosts to prevent them from wandering around can also reduce the harm, give humans more time to react, and also increase the capital to fight other ghost ships.
Because of this, Tang Jie issued this order without hesitation.
After giving the order, Tang Jie simply handed over the Baigui Night Boat to Shaluo's command, and then left the ghost ship and took the lead to fly towards a human city in the distance.
Looking from a distance, you can see raging black smoke burning over the city, and the shouts of killing are loud.
When he flew closer, Tang Jie saw that above the city wall, a large number of human soldiers, led by some cultivators, were fighting against the incoming ghosts.
Those ghost soldiers are certainly the lowest level of ghosts in the underworld. They are ignorant and act on instinct. The soldiers on the city are not much better. Most of them have never even seen a few cultivators. They have to face so many ghosts at once. , Already trembling with fear.
The ghosts all over the mountains and plains just swept in. If there were not some cultivators who were casting spells and boosting morale, all the soldiers would have dispersed.
However, facing the endless tide of ghosts, this city may not be able to sustain it for long.
When Tang Jie arrived, he saw a hungry ghost standing in front of him. This was obviously a general-level hungry ghost. He opened his mouth wide at the city wall in front, and a vortex with strong suction was generated by itself. Then dozens of soldiers were seen being swept into the air by this wave, coiling in the air, wailing and flying towards the hungry ghosts. The hungry ghost opened its mouth wide, and dozens of soldiers fell into its mouth at the same time. It was obviously only about the same size as an ordinary adult, but at this moment it swallowed dozens of people in one gulp, and no signs of its body growing in size were seen. It was extremely strange.
The hungry ghost devoured dozens of people at once, but was still not satisfied. Hungry ghosts never know enough and keep devouring until death is their fate. At this moment, the hungry ghost opened his mouth again, and another whirlpool of wind arose.
But just as he was about to take another shot, a figure rushed over and threw something at Feng Xuan: "Let's eat this."
I saw the thing flying straight into the mouth of the hungry ghost along the wind whirlpool. Hungry ghosts always eat everything without even looking at it. They open their mouths and swallow it.
The next moment, a surging flame spurted out from its mouth, and the ghost let out a painful wail, and was quickly burned to ashes. However, none of the people swallowed by it were still there, and no one knew where they had gone.
"Senior Brother Li is awesome!" A burst of cheers broke out from the crowd.
"It's just a drop in the bucket in the end." The man who killed the hungry ghost wiped the sweat from his forehead. Although this hungry ghost was eliminated by him, he also paid the price of a fire thunder bead. Refining Fire Thunder Beads is not easy, but the ghosts here are endless. If this continues, this city will eventually be unable to defend itself. Thinking of this, the senior brother's eyes also showed despair.
Looking at the distance of the city again, there were a total of six ghost ships in the field of vision.
After a series of fierce battles, this man already knew that those ghost ships were the core of the ghost tide. Compared with ghost ships, although there are many ghosts all over the mountains and plains, they are all ignorant and dead creatures with low strength. Even ordinary soldiers can deal with them. As long as they are given enough attacks, they can be killed. But the soldiers on the ghost ship were completely different. He even saw with his own eyes that a ghost soldier who was originally in the mountains suddenly became stronger after boarding the ghost ship.
It can be seen that these ghost ships have a rather strange ability to form battle formations, thus converting quantity into quality.
They are like generals in the army. As long as the generals are still there, the ghost tide army will not be destroyed.
He also tried to lure the enemy deep, and then launched a surprise attack when the enemy approached, but those ghost ships were very cunning. Only using those ordinary ghosts as cannon fodder, constantly attacking and consuming human power, I was waiting for the best opportunity, but refused to be fooled. In desperation, he led a group of fellow disciples to launch a surprise attack. Unexpectedly, he fell into the opponent's conspiracy and failed to attack. Instead, he killed several fellow disciples in the battle. Even his master died on the battlefield in order to protect them and retreated. The green-faced ghost joins the army of the underworld.
"Senior Brother Li, those ghosts are still coming. If we continue like this, we will really be unable to hold on. Get out!" A man with a sword rushed over and said.
Then Senior Brother Li asked: "How are the people retreating?"
The sword-wielding man shook his head slightly: "There are still 100,000 people, I'm afraid it's too late to evacuate."
The speed of ordinary people cannot be compared with that of cultivators. No matter how hard they try, they cannot evacuate everyone.
Hearing that there were still 100,000 people in the city, Senior Brother Li also showed despair in his eyes: "Can't we save everyone in the end?"
"Senior Brother, if you don't leave, you won't be able to leave!" Another junior fellow student shouted to Senior Brother Li.
Faintly visible in the distance, there is another ghost boat approaching, with a particularly powerful sound. And in front of that ghost boat, there is a big ghost, a green seedling with fangs, two wings on its back, and a steel fork in its hand, exuding an intimidating aura. Come here.
It is clear that another powerful enemy is coming.
Some knowledgeable people even shouted: "It's Yaksha! Flying Yaksha, Yaksha is here too!"
Everyone felt despair when they heard Yasha's name.
The ferocity of the flying yaksha in the underworld has spread even in the human world.
At the moment of despair, I saw the Yaksha stopped in the air and said loudly in human language: "From now on, this city belongs to me, Mora Zhi. All the other ghost ships should be pushed away, otherwise you will not blame me for being rude."
