Chapter 408
Long Bo and the armored men fought fiercely below.
The stone horses trampled and collided on the city wall.
The spiritual fire sprinkled by the Second Shixiong's sleeves could not be extinguished even by the heavy rain.
The Third Shixiong raised his sword and swung out sword light like snow.
The junior sister's movement was agile, specializing in picking hard targets, the harder the better.
The battle in Ziyun City slowly subsided.
The Yuan-Returning Pills newly refined by the Second Shixiong had good efficacy, and the breath of spiritual energy spat by the Fifth Shixiong was also the result of his lifelong medical skills; with the two combined, Lin Jue had slowly recovered.
At this time, the Fifth Shixiong was already walking on the city wall, treating those soldiers who had not yet died.
At this time, he was truly like a medical immortal descending to the mortal realm; no matter how ferocious the wound, he only needed one finger to stop the bleeding; no matter how painful the injured person, he would walk up and immediately settle them down; even if it was a life-threatening injury, he would press his hand on it, and the passing vitality would stop there.
In the eyes of many soldiers, it was simply a miracle.
Compared with Lin Zhenren's earth-shattering magical powers before, they found it difficult to distinguish for a moment which one was more like an immortal.
"Report! The yaoguai have been almost completely wiped out by the 'celestial soldiers'!"
"Report! There are also casualties among the people in the city, bitten by those insects that drilled in, injured by birds, and injured by collapsing houses!"
"The tree outside is disappearing..."
Lin Jue slowly stood up, listening carefully, and also held onto the wall battlements, looking into the distance.
At this time, the thunder and rain continued, and his clothes had long been wet.
The lightning illuminated the scene under the city one by one, reflecting a scene like an Asura hell; I don't know how many yaoguai corpses lay horizontally; whether they had returned to their original forms or not, whether their bodies were still complete, it was still shocking.
That collapsed towering ancient tree was turning into emerald green light dust, disappearing from heaven and earth bit by bit.
The huge Long Bo bean soldiers and thousands of armored men stood straight in the middle of the battlefield.
The Third Shixiong had already taken his sword down to take them back.
"It's really tragic..."
Originally, I thought that no matter what the Wang Mu of the West's cultivation was, in terms of fighting, she should not be as good as the Corpse Tiger King in Huizhou at the beginning; now it seems that it may not be so.
Lin Jue couldn't help but look to the other side.
That was the direction of Jiguang County.
"Lin Zhenren, what to do now?" Wan Xinrong walked over holding a lantern, his eyes looking at Lin Jue were even more awe-struck than before.
"Rest a little, don't relax. After recovering, first go to clean up the corpses of the yaoguai below, don't let the evil energy remain, I'm afraid some yaoguai will be born again. Clean up those magic tools and treasures properly." Lin Jue's voice was still a little weak, and he paused after saying this, "As for the matters of settling the wounded soldiers, collecting the fallen soldiers, and comforting the people in the city, let the county magistrate in the city handle it."
"Yes!"
Wan Xinrong agreed.
"After that, the matters here will be left to you." Lin Jue still looked into the distance, standing still, quickly inhaling and exhaling, "After I recover, I have to go to Jiguang and Boyu."
"Wan will definitely handle it properly!"
"Thank you."
Lin Jue recovered a little and left Ziyun.
Jiguang County was also undergoing a fierce battle.
The yaoguai that came here were not as many as Ziyun County, but they also greatly exceeded the power placed on the surface by the Jiguang County garrison and the strange people and talented scholars of the Juxian Mansion; even if the Southern Celestial Master adopted a strategy similar to Lin Jue's—in all the Wang Mu of the West's previous probes, they did not expose their full strength, but the part of the power that was hidden was still wiped out by the power overflowing from the yaoguai on the opposite side.
The two sides fought fiercely, and soldiers died and yaoguai were killed every moment; they were fighting for life and death.
It's just that Jiguang County didn't have Long Bo and stone giants; facing those yaoguai with huge bodies, even taller than the city wall, even if the Seventh Shixiong also learned the "Flower Blooms in an Instant," it was still difficult to handle.
Yaoguai were constantly climbing onto the city wall, and yaoguai were constantly entering the city, starting a massacre.
The Daoist cast spells until his magic power was exhausted.
The soldiers swung their knives, using all their strength.
The Southern Celestial Master invited gods again and again, used all the rhetoric, scolded and provoked, threatened and lured, rationally stated, and pleaded, inviting all the gods he knew.
Each used their own methods and showed their own magical powers, but it was difficult to hide the decline.
The Southern Celestial Master's mouth was dry from shouting, but few gods were willing to come and able to come.
Some were too far away to come.
Some were not far away, but were unwilling to come.
Some came, but suffered from insufficient power.
Those with enough power had their own calculations.
This is the gateway for Qinzhou to resist the north, the incense land of Tianweng; the two True Lords under Tianweng are fighting fiercely with the Wang Mu of the West on Mount Mo Du and cannot spare power; the southern god system has limited power here and has all been used in Boyu County guarded by the Daoist friends of the Zhenjian Palace; the northern army has already gone south, and the northern gods wish that this place would not be peaceful, so they ignored him at all.
The gods under the Miaoming Emperor in the west have no temples here and cannot rush over at all; the gods under the Qinghua Emperor in the east are very low-key, rarely appear, and are even less willing to get involved in this kind of incense struggle.
Seeing that this city was about to fall.
"You gods, only care about the continuation of your own incense, regardless of the living people, do you still have the face to be gods!?"
The Southern Celestial Master was angry and desperate.
Just at this moment, there was suddenly the sound of thunder drums in the sky.
At first hearing, I thought it was thunder, but when it rang rhythmically, I knew it was the war drums in the sky.
I don't know when, gods had already stood above the dark clouds.
That was the three-eyed god general that the Southern Celestial Master didn't know.
After the god general spoke, the world knew where he came from:
"I am the Multi-Eyed God General under the Qingmiao Husheng Husheng Zhenjun before the Eastern Qinghua Emperor; because yaoguai are rampant here and the living people are in dire straits, and the wise men in the mortal realm have spoken sincerely and invited me several times, the Emperor and Husheng Husheng Zhenjun have been moved one after another, and specifically ordered this general to lead a thousand celestial soldiers to help you eliminate the yaoguai! This is an act of overstepping authority, not for incense, but only for the common people!"
The god general carried his sword and descended to the mortal realm, accompanied by a thousand celestial soldiers.
The celestial soldiers and god generals worked together and fought fiercely for an hour before they beat back the yaoguai's offensive below.
Yet they didn't expect that what happened in Ziyun County happened here almost exactly the same—
The essence blood and essence energy of the yaoguai below seeped underground, flowed into the mist, and with this as a guide, plus the Wang Mu of the West's magical power, an incarnation of the Wang Mu of the West was condensed here.
The moment the towering ancient tree appeared, heaven and earth also became quiet.
That Multi-Eyed God General who came to support was only swept by the branches of this ancient longevity tree, and was almost beaten to the point of soul flying and spirit scattering, and the celestial soldiers were also beaten away.
This Wang Mu of the West vowed to destroy the city.
Jiguang County entered despair again.
However, there are always people standing up in the mortal realm.
The one who arrived this time was not the First Shixiong of Fuchi Temple, nor Lin Jue, but a middle-aged Daoist who looked like an immortal but was actually ordinary.
As soon as the middle-aged Daoist arrived here, he saw the moment the towering ancient tree shattered the god's body, and also saw the process of the ancient tree beating away thousands of celestial soldiers, which scared him so much that his legs trembled and he kept swallowing saliva.
But he didn't turn around and leave, nor was he scared to the ground; instead, he turned around and thanked the yaoguai who brought him here.
