No one thought that City Lord Gongsun would step forward on his own initiative. After all, everyone knew that he was very timid, and usually a bird flying over would scare him. But he would actually step forward at this critical moment?
Everyone who had already lost confidence watched blankly as City Lord Gongsun, whose legs and feet were still trembling, stood up and then slowly flew into the sky.
Although he has been pampered for a long time, his body skills have not fallen. Now after flying into the sky, his body skills look surprisingly sharp. But what's the use? The city lord's cultivation level is not as high as the city lord's wife. Everyone looked at it blankly.
Looking at the figure who was trying to straighten his back, he didn't know what to say for a moment.
And those wary beasts that were eyeing him were now targeting City Lord Gongsun who dared to step forward. They seemed to be very interested in the human being City Lord Gongsun. They were staring at him and changing directions as the man moved around.
.The Lord of Gongsun City was so frightened by this strange scene that his legs went weak, but he did not take even a step back no matter what.
"Roar--"
Seeing this, the monsters let out roars, and then attacked in unison!
"Kazuo!"
"father!"
"City Lord!"
"Lord City Lord——"
Many exclamations sounded at this moment, and everyone looked at this scene in horror. Some people even couldn't help but look away, not daring to look.
But after the deathly silence, someone couldn't hide the surprised voice.
"The city lord..."
Unable to control the curiosity and sadness in their hearts, everyone looked over one after another, and were surprised to find that the city lord was standing there perfectly fine, not even taking a step back due to the attacks of those monsters.
Under the gaze of everyone, Gongsun City Lord Zhen stretched out his hands, and an invisible formation was being generated at an extremely fast speed. It was a protective formation with a light gray color, and the light flashed out in an instant and enveloped the entire Fengming City.
, in Fengming City, dazzling lights are constantly emitting from various places, reflecting the protective shield emitted from the hands of the city lord.
The source of those lights was surprisingly the citizens of Fengming City whose bodies were translucent or completely transparent. Those people were staring blankly at the light emitting from their bodies, and their memories that they had only half-understood were completely unblocked at this time.
Everyone looked at each other, looking at this strange yet familiar Fengming City, and remained silent at the same time.
Before, everyone thought that Fengming City had been established for many years, but in fact it was not.
Fifty years ago, there was no such city in this desolate land, and there was indeed a group of magical beasts imprisoned under the endless abyss.
At that time, the seal of the Endless Abyss was broken by chance, and the magical beasts came out in full force. The people of Liyuan's small world resisted desperately. Many sects and aristocratic families sent many monks to fight against it. The Gongsun family was one of them. That year
This war was so cruel, this land was like a huge hanging ground, and countless people were hanged.
Fortunately, they won in the end. However, one general was responsible for the death of many powerful monks. Many powerful monks emerged in that battle, and many people who did not leave their names in history also died.
When everyone finally defeated those monsters, the dead monks almost filled up half of the Endless Abyss. But at that time, a phenomenon that surprised everyone occurred.
At that time, most of the monks were corroded by demonic energy, especially those who died in battle. Their bodies should have dissipated after three days, but under the erosion of both demonic energy and the Yin Qi of the Endless Abyss, they actually remained intact.
And Yin spirits gradually breed. To make matters worse, if left alone, these Yin spirits will either dissipate or become new threats.
"..."
At that time, everyone fell into silence. Rationally, everyone knew that these people should be dealt with as soon as possible to avoid more serious injuries. However, those were comrades who fought alongside them! Even if they died, their souls should return to the earth.
, should not be destroyed by one's own hands. No one is willing to bear this responsibility.
However, there is no way. If it is not dealt with in time, all the sacrifices made before will be in vain, and people will die in vain!
Finally, everyone reluctantly took action and burned all the corpses. However, they were reluctant to do so for those companions who had turned into ghosts.
At this time, Gongsun Yifu's father stood up. He was seriously injured in the battle and could no longer continue to practice and advance. Many of the monks who became Yin spirits were his close friends, and Gongsun Yifu
The special physique inherited from the family - Jiuyinna spirit body, can communicate with the monks who have turned into Yin spirits.
So he took over the difficult task. He used himself as a formation to build Fengming City, giving these heroic spirits an illusion, an illusion that made them think they were still alive. The price was that he would never be able to leave Fengming in this life.
Mingcheng.
In fact, Gongsun Yifu's father, Gongsun Nan, was just a remote branch of the Gongsun family and did not need to bear this responsibility. However, at that time, Gongsun Nan made this choice with almost no hesitation.
The young Gongsun Yifu was very puzzled. He looked at those ghosts and felt extremely scared. After all, they were technically dead, but they still had transparent souls. Gongsun Yifu had been timid since he was a child, so when he saw this scene, he immediately
I was so scared that I couldn't even speak.
As a son of a man, he respected and admired his father, but for a long time he could not understand why his father made such a choice. Obviously everyone else chose to go back, but they had to stay in such a remote and cold city.
. They are said to be the city lords, but there are only two living people in the whole city, father and son!
At that time, Gongsun Nan always looked at the Yin spirits who were not able to control their own behavior with a look that Gongsun Yifu couldn't understand, and then smiled tiredly.
"You don't understand. Although they are dead, they died for this small world of Liyuan. Is it possible that just because they died and turned into ghosts, they will be forgotten by everyone and become like this?
Status?"
"Heroes should never be forgotten."
"But, dad, why do we have to do this? Even without us, others can do it."
"If everyone thinks that others can do it, then in the end no one will do it."
"..."
For a long time, Gongsun Yifu could not accept the existence of those Yin spirits. Even if they would smile at him, their translucent or completely transparent state was really scary.
After living in the dense Fengming City for a while, he became even more timid.
Until he really didn't want to stay in this gloomy place and sneaked out but lost his way. How could a timid child with insufficient cultivation survive in this wilderness? In addition, he was in
He injured himself in panic, and the smell of blood spread out. Not long after, monster beasts came over smelling the smell. They were a group of sand rats. Although they were not big, they were obviously very hungry, and their eyes were red.
