Chapter 1188: Armored Soldier

"Let's move out." Tianxin waved a hand, and the group walked out of the stone circle.

But the moment they stepped out of the stone circle, everyone could not help but be startled.

Before their eyes, a dense, black mass of armored soldiers had appeared, though no one knew when.

These armored soldiers had died in battle during the ancient era while fighting against the Ghost Clan, but after their deaths, they became a part of the Ghost Clan.

All the armored soldiers were expressionless, their eyes replaced by two clusters of green fluorescent light; because they had been dead for too long, even though this space could significantly slow the rate of corpse decay.

Yet the faces of these armored soldiers were already extremely withered, and one by one, their indifferent, expressionless faces appeared before everyone, looking quite terrifying.

Moreover, the faint green glow in their eyes gave off a soul-chilling sensation.

"They are armored soldier corpses controlled by the Ghost Clan, everyone be careful," Xuanxin shouted loudly.

The remaining six disciples of the Seven Star Sect quickly stood in a row, but a cloud of dust rose in the distance as eight phalanxes of armored soldiers slowly gathered.

Not only that, but the armored soldiers lying on the ground also rose with green light in their eyes, joining the phalanxes.

The number of these armored soldiers was at least several thousand; even if they just stood there to be hacked at, one would likely grow weary, and their numbers were still increasing.

Tianxin and Bamu quickly stepped forward; the whip in Tianxin's hand coiled, and with a *snap, snap*, several bolts of electricity were emitted from the whip, instantly causing six armored soldiers to fall to the ground.

However, these armored soldiers did not stiffen even in death, and now with the addition of Ghost Spirit Charms, they were essentially immortal.

The six armored soldiers lying on the ground had the green light in their eyes flicker slightly, then they flipped over and stood up, continuing to move forward slowly.

Bamu let out a violent shout, the blade in his hand flicked forward and slashed down fiercely; with two *crack, crack* sounds, two armored soldiers turned into a pile of ashes.

When he raised his blade to continue, he saw several black-armored soldiers surging up; he hurriedly swung his blade to block, but more armored soldiers surged forward.

"Retreat," Chen Yu shouted in a deep voice, his right hand grabbing out, and Lichen appeared in his hand.

Although there was only one entrance to the Cloud Void Realm, the place each team arrived at after entering was different.

And the place where Chen Yu, Tianxin, and the others entered happened to be the most dangerous one.

This place was a massive Ancient Battlefield where countless armored soldiers remained un-stiffened in death, so when Chen Yu, Tianxin, and the others came here, they would automatically trigger the armored soldiers of this place.

With thousands of undead troops surging over, even though Chen Yu's cultivation had already reached the Entering the Dao Realm, he felt somewhat helpless seeing the dense mass of armored soldiers before him.

Tianxin and the others retreated as told; Chen Yu held Lichen, raised his Primordial Qi, let out a violent shout, and Lichen left his hand.

A Sword Radiance of several dozen zhang slowly condensed in mid-air, and immediately after, Chen Yu shouted: "Break..."

*Hum*, a transparent Sword Light surged forward; for a moment, a power like the collapse of heaven and earth erupted in front, the earth cracked, and nearly a thousand armored soldiers were wiped out in this single strike.

With one sword strike, a vacuum zone appeared before everyone, and Chen Yu shouted: "Go!"

Xuanxin and the others had no time to be shocked and hurriedly fled forward along the vacuum zone that had been cut open.

On the ground in this area, countless armored soldiers lay in a dense mass; if they fought head-on, they would inevitably exhaust their Original Power.

Moreover, this place was different from the outside world; it was a blessed land independent of the world, so one could not draw upon the Primordial Qi of heaven and earth on a large scale.

Even someone as strong as Chen Yu, if he really fought these thousands of armored soldiers, would only end up dying from the exhaustion of his Primordial Qi.

Following Chen Yu's sword strike, the earth-shattering power caused more armored soldiers lying on the ground to slowly stand up.

The faint green light in their eyes flickered slightly, and they rose to join the army.

Even in death, these armored soldiers could maintain their pre-death state; they quickly assembled, forming one phalanx after another, and then charged toward Chen Yu and the others.

Fortunately, these things were relatively slow; Chen Yu led everyone as they hacked their way out, finally breaking through the encirclement and ascending to safety.

After Chen Yu and the group from the Seven Star Sect passed, two figures, a man and a woman, appeared on a hillside.

And this woman was none other than Ye Xinyu.

Following behind her was Wen Ziming, one of the Ten Asuras.

Wen Ziming had a scholarly appearance; if one met him above, one would mostly assume he was a scholar.

But in fact, his strength was already little different from a master of the Spirit Rhinoceros Realm.

"Their luck seems poor, appearing directly on the Ancient Battlefield after entering," Wen Ziming said indifferently.

"These armored soldiers will all rise if disturbed," Ye Xinyu's brows furrowed slightly: "So there is only one way right now, and that is to run."

"With thousands of armored soldiers surging over, and all of them being immortal, let alone a Dharma Cultivator at the Entering the Dao Realm, even a Spirit Rhinoceros master would likely find it hard to cope."

Wen Ziming shook his head and said: "Fleeing in panic is not shameful; if it were me, I would run too."

"Let's go over too, the timing is almost here," Ye Xinyu glanced at the mountain peak in the distance.

The top of the mountain was a deep red, and most of the dark red in the sky was reflected from that direction.

And countless black mists floated upward like burning paper ash; above, there was a massive vortex, and the vortex was continuously sucking things from the ground up to the top.

"What is our purpose in coming here?" Wen Ziming looked at Ye Xinyu.

"You just listen and do as you are told; I naturally have arrangements for everything," Ye Xinyu said indifferently.

"I only listen to the words of the Heavenly Mandate elder," Wen Ziming said: "If you want to help Chen Yu, then I will not agree."

"That's right, I came here specifically to help him," Ye Xinyu turned back to look at Wen Ziming, and only after a long while did she speak.

"I heard long ago that you were going to betray the Heavenly Mandate elder; I thought it was false before, but I didn't expect it to be confirmed now," Wen Ziming's expression changed slightly, and he snorted coldly: "Ye Xinyu, if you act like this, don't blame me for being impolite."

"Before you came here, I already told you that I came to help Chen Yu; you didn't think I was joking with you, did you?" Ye Xinyu stared at Wen Ziming, and suddenly, she smiled.

"Those words of yours, were you serious?" Wen Ziming stared at Ye Xinyu, his expression gradually becoming serious.

"Of course I am serious," Ye Xinyu smiled slightly: "Chen Yu is my husband, why wouldn't I help him?"

"But everything you have now was given to you by the Heavenly Mandate elder," Wen Ziming suddenly became furious.

"Did I beg him? Do I need all of this?" Ye Xinyu turned back abruptly, her cold eyes making even Wen Ziming involuntarily step back.
