Chapter 1600: Prepare for Battle
If it weren't for Yuan Hao and the others who had almost all reached the peak of Qi Refining disciples, if they were six or seven ordinary elite disciples, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to make it..."That boss is extremely strange, you guys can't handle it. First, remove the ghost tribe's arrangements around here, and then this old man will personally take action. Lu Xiaoyou, you stay on standby to assist."
Xiang Hua shook his head. The Ice Soul Demon's head and body had been refined by the Violet Crocodile Ghost King with a unique method, something that ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators couldn't handle. Although he hadn't fully recovered from his injuries, he believed the methods he had to deal with the Violet Crocodile Ghost King would be sufficient. However, if the Violet Crocodile Ghost King had other tricks up his sleeve, and he was without reinforcements, it would be extremely dangerous.
When Xiang Huaxin said this, he didn't think much of it. However, when Xiang Donglai heard it, he couldn't help but find it unbelievable. Xiang Huaxin was the last remaining Divine Transformation ancestor of the Xiang family's royal lineage. To actually seek Lu Xiaoteng's opinion in battle was beyond his comprehension. Even though Lu Xiaoteng was a master of alchemy and possessed extraordinary combat power, Xiang Huaxin's actions were excessive.
"Seniors, be careful of the Ice Soul Demon's head. Its headless corpse is also quite formidable. If the two are combined, it will be difficult to deal with. As for the Purple Crocodile Ghost King's movements, I and Qincheng will take action immediately."
Then, Xiang Donglai thought he had misheard. He looked at Xiang Huixin's expression, but it seemed fine. It was really strange year after year, this year especially. That Purple Crocodile Ghost King is the most ferocious ghost warrior. This time, the human race regrouped and came back because of Xiang Huixin's efforts, but looking at the situation, it didn't seem as simple as outsiders saw.
“This junior will take his leave first!” Xiang Donglai bowed and performed a courteous gesture before continuing to command the overall battlefield situation.
Boom, boom, boom........
Another flurry of rapid drumbeats echoed through the air. Xiang Kuang's face lit up with excitement as he exclaimed, "Good heavens! The Qin clan is finally making a move! This time they're going to strike at the Ghost clan's lair in one fell swoop!"
At this time, the human and ghost clans' arrows flew back and forth in dense waves, with countless ghost birds from the ghost clan surging through the sky. Amidst this alternating rain of arrows, the human clan couldn't gain much advantage. However, regardless of whether it was the human or ghost clan's arrows, they were densely packed, yet in Lu Xiaoteng and Xiang Kuang's eyes, they lacked the momentum and soul compared to the Qin Clan's Great Qin Arrow Formation.
On the battlefield, this realm's mastery was taken to the extreme by the Qin clan. It was even able to trap a formidable powerhouse like the three-armed demon with one eye. In this regard, Huaxin also had deep understanding, after all, in the Qin clan territory, he had once been taught these battle formations by the Qin people.
... The arrows fired by the Qin people flew through the air like giant beasts, while the bone arrows shot by the Ghost tribe seemed dense and overwhelming, yet they were scattered and disorganized, torn apart by the Qin army's arrow formation. Suddenly, the flocks of ghostly birds in the sky were once again slaughtered by a hail of arrows.
"Damn Qin people, I should have exterminated them all before."
A green-armored skeleton stood atop a cloud of mist, hands on his hips, watching as countless terracotta cavalry took advantage of the gap torn by Qin arrows in the Ghost Clan's formation. They charged into the enemy ranks with great ferocity. In the ensuing chaos, the Ghost Clan's skeletal archers were thrown into disarray. The green-armored skeleton seemed to berate them verbally, but his true attention was fixed on the nearby Purple Crocodile Ghost King. He didn't truly care how many Ghosts died. What he truly cared about was the Purple Crocodile Ghost King's use of the Ghost Clan to expand their influence and set a grand scheme related to the Four Heavenly Gates.
Su Qing beside him remained unmoved by the external affairs, as if the battle before her eyes had nothing to do with her.
The Purple Crocodile Ghost King's deep eyes swept across the entire battlefield. At the edge of the sky, a gigantic Fei Hong-class warship stood motionless. The Qin people charged in from this most critical pass, like the sharpest dagger, stabbing at the vital points of the Ghost Clan. The Ghost Clan had no choice but to fight head-on. Although they had won a great victory before, the human race had a solid foundation, especially the major Xiu Dynasty in the Chiyan Continent who united as one. After merging with the Qin people, without the interference of cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage, in direct combat, the human race still gained the upper hand after a few days of fighting. And as time passed, this advantage would continue to grow.
“Luo Daoist, this battle concerns the future of you and me. Luo Daoist, won't you give it your all” Half a moment later, the Zi Ao Ghost King suddenly shouted out loud.
The green-armored skull was a little surprised. The clouds in the distance churned, and a voice came from within, "I cultivate the path of Ghost Buddha. Although I want to become a Buddha in the Ghost Realm, going to the Ghost Domain is my first choice, but it's not the only one. If the war doesn't go well, and Brother Zi'ao can't open the Ghost Gate, then you should know what will happen."
The Green Armored Skeleton was inwardly surprised. He naturally knew who the owner of this voice was. Judging from his tone, he didn't seem to fear the Purple Crocodile Ghost King.
A flash of ferocity crossed Zi'Ao Gui Jun's eyes, quickly returning to normal. He thought to himself that Luo Zhong Ting was both ghost and Buddha, embodying both righteousness and evil in one person. He had carved his own path, and while his supernatural abilities were slightly weaker than Zi'Ao Gui Jun's, his skeleton was extraordinary. His defense was far superior to Zi'Ao Gui Jun's own. Even though Zi'Ao Gui Jun had refined a portion of the second Dragon Essence, greatly increasing his strength, it would be unrealistic to defeat Luo Zhong Ting. Zi'Ao Gui Jun naturally didn't know that the owner of Luo Zhong Ting's skeleton back then was none other than Fu Tu Xing Seng, who had cultivated his Fu Tu Golden Body to an incredibly high level, far exceeding Zi'Ao Gui Jun's current power.
"No matter how the situation develops, opening the Ghostly Energy Gate won't be a problem. The only question is how many people it will allow through."
"Excellent, I shall hold back the Wind and Snow Demoness for Purple Crocodile Brother. Purple Crocodile Brother, please do not underestimate this demon woman. Her strength is perhaps not much weaker than ours. Even if she fought me, she would still retain considerable power." Luo Zhongting laughed heartily, not taking Purple Crocodile Ghost King's displeasure to heart.
"Wind and Snow Demoness, this bitch!"
Originally, Dongfang Yi was on his side and had agreed to help him open the Ghost Realm Gate. However, as a condition, he would open the Demon Realm Gate for a brief moment before opening the Ghost Realm Gate, allowing it to enter. If Dongfang Yi hadn't switched sides, the situation wouldn't be this difficult now.
This greatly increased the risk of opening the passage. The mention of Dongfang Yi made Zi'ao Guijun's heart fill with rage. However, Luo Zhongting's words also made Zi'ao Guijun wary. This cultivator of the Ghost Buddha Dao, even if he entered Yuangmen and reached the human territory, could still use the Buddhist aura on his body to conceal himself to a certain extent, and his situation wouldn't be too difficult. If he himself couldn't open the Gui Yuan Gate, perhaps this fellow would also turn against him, and then it would truly be impossible to remedy the situation.
“Activate the One-Yuan Ghostly Assassins Formation!” The Purple Crocodile Ghost King took a breath. Plans can’t keep up with changes, and now there was only one option: to make his move ahead of schedule.
"Yes!" The Green-armored Skeleton and Su Qing both responded at the same time.
Both of them leaped up simultaneously, throwing their flags forward. The black flag swelled menacingly in the wind, with black lightning dancing upon it, swirling together with the thunderclouds.ence.However, the blade intent that had already invaded Langqi's body still needed Qingming to personally drive it out.After Xiang Qincheng helped Qing Ming recover from his injuries, the two sat on e...
