The current situation is indeed much worse than Chu Yan imagined.
Since Baoxiang Shangguo has Tianya Sect in charge, many situations can still be controlled.
This can be seen from the fact that Tianya Sect only needs to send out disciples from the Earth Yuan Realm.
But when it comes to borderland, sometimes, not only the Earth Yuan Realm is needed, but also the Master of the Heavenly Mind Realm must take action to suppress it, so that the corpse chaos can be eradicated.
Even so, sometimes one guru is not enough and two or three need to join forces to solve the problem.
Under normal circumstances, once the resurrected zombies are suppressed, basically everything within a radius of hundreds of miles will be destroyed.
If this zombie appeared in a barren mountain or desert, even if it was destroyed within a hundred miles, it would still be acceptable. After all, the damage would be limited.
But if it appears around towns, or even around some important towns, the losses will be unimaginable.
This involves one of the most troublesome issues.
These zombies appear without any warning or pattern.
No one knows when or where they will emerge from.
For this reason, both mortals and monks can only defend passively.
Often they are not discovered until the zombies gather together and form a certain size.
At this time, if you go to strangle again, you will have to put in much more effort than at the beginning.
However, there is no way around this.
Because the entire continent has existed for countless years.
Take the Yun Ao Jiang Kingdom as an example.
Yun Aojiang has been established for hundreds of years, and Broken Star Tower has been passed down for thousands of years.
But these years, in the face of the precipitation of the entire continent, can only be described as a blink of an eye.
Before Yun Ao Jiang Kingdom and Broken Star Tower, there were countless dynasties and sects in this land.
This also means that there are countless creatures buried underground in this land.
These dead creatures may be resurrected in this zombie chaos and cause disaster.
Even under the feet where Chu Yan was standing at this moment, there might be corpses deep inside.
There is also a chance that the bones will break out of the ground.
The most unlucky person is dreaming happily, and suddenly a withered hand stretches out from the ground under the bed and pinches his throat - this kind of situation also exists.
Just like what Hua Muyan told Chu Yan.
On several occasions, monks and secular troops had blocked the tide of corpses from the city gates.
But at this moment, the center of the city suddenly collapsed.
Next, thousands of zombies poured out from the collapse, killing everyone.
The defense that was held fast collapsed in an instant.
The entire city was reduced to nothing in a short period of time.
Hua Muyan told Chu Yan very sadly that in the past six months, more than 200 towns with a population of more than 200,000 have been completely destroyed, and cities with a population of more than one million have been destroyed.
Forty.
And these numbers are still rising.
The so-called destruction of a town here means not only the destruction of its buildings, but also the near-annihilation of its population.
A rough calculation shows that tens of millions of people have died due to the zombie chaos.
This does not include the troops and monks who risked their lives to fight the zombies.
The monks were a little better.
A mortal army's combat effectiveness is still limited when faced with zombies that are still lethal even if they are not torn apart.
"Based on changes in the situation, we will adjust the number of disciples and deacons sent out.
But overall, the number of disciples we send out in each period of time remains at least 30%.
At the most, almost 80% of the disciples were sent out." When Hua Muyan told Chu Yan this number, her voice was trembling.
Chu Yan couldn't help but feel moved.
The sect sent out more than half of its people, but it didn't sound like it was a big deal.
After all, disaster is just around the corner.
But the problem is, it's like marching to war.
No matter how tense the battle ahead is, there will still be people stationed in the base camp.
If the base camp is empty and someone comes to attack at this time, the consequences will be disastrous.
Moreover, in this zombie chaos, Broken Star Tower can send out 80% of its disciples, which is enough to show the brutality of the battle and the crisis of the situation.
At this time, if there are monsters or evil cultivators coming to attack the Broken Star Tower gate...
This consequence is simply too scary to think about.
After all, monsters and evil cultivators have no moral integrity. Chu Yan fully understood this at the dinner in the Imperial City after the national election.
Moreover, on the mainland, the real ongoing war is the war between monks and monsters.
After saying this, Hua Muyan comforted Chu Yan and said: "Actually, the most chaotic and dangerous period has passed. In the past month, the situation has been relatively stable.
It's just that zombies are still appearing one after another, which is quite annoying. The really powerful zombies haven't appeared for a while."
When he heard this, Chu Yan felt as if something had occurred to him.
But this spiritual light only flashed for a moment.
When he wanted to think about it carefully, he could no longer capture it.
So the topic shifted to Chu Yan's original intention of coming back this time.
"I leave all this plan to you. As long as you can get the qualification to enter the Soul-Destroying Path, it will be an opportunity for those disciples.
If I can finally enter the Tianya Sect like you, it will be good for them and Broken Star Tower." Hua Muyan said.
"Yes." Chu Yan nodded, "Then I will gather them first and then make a plan."
Li Xiu and others are currently away. If Chu Yan goes to look for them one by one, it will not only waste time, but also appear to have no plan.
So Chu Yan stayed in Broken Star Tower and used the messenger talisman to send messages to everyone.
At this moment, Chu Yan was like weaving a big net, connecting his partners one by one with each other.
…
In the valley where the yellow dust was billowing like a dragon in a sandstorm, Li Xiu, holding a blue sword in hand, suddenly jumped up high in the face of the two charging zombies.
The next moment, the long sword in his hand cut out an extremely sharp edge.
If you look carefully, there seems to be blood and fire gushing out from the sharp edge.
"Extremely Furious Sword Intent!"
A zombie that was out of position and still charging forward suddenly stopped.
The oncoming piece of sand and dust was torn apart by the sword light at this moment, and rolled to both sides with a roar.
Li Xiu had no expression on his face and put the Youyin Twilight Sword into its scabbard.
With a crisp sound, the two zombies trembled suddenly, and the next moment, they all exploded into dozens of pieces and fell to the ground.
Among these fragments, there are two crystals about the size of peanuts, glowing red.
