Zhao Xiao led him, crawling and crawling, making almost no sound, to the other side of the cliff, and stretched out his hand to point down: the mountains are high and the terrain is extremely complicated, and there is no way for a normal army to pass through.
However, there is a mighty group of world-destroying ghost soldiers that are marching continuously. No matter what complex terrain they encounter, they can build "human ladders and human bridges". The powerful bodies of the ghost soldiers can ensure this incredible march.
Way.
This army is extremely large, with no head in sight and no tail in sight, at least hundreds of thousands in number.
Song Zheng couldn't help but look back at the other side of the canyon. He and Zhao Xiao made gestures, and the two quietly went down to the cliff on the other side of the canyon.
Shi Yi looked confused: What happened?
There are also vast mountains here, but they can't stand the world-destroying ghost soldiers. As Song Zheng expected, another group of world-destroying ghost soldiers passed through here, bypassed Huangtai Fort, and were marching towards the rear of Huangtai Fort.
.
The two slid down the stone wall and whispered the situation to Shi Yi. Shi Yi was full of doubts: "Why do they need to do this? They have already opened up Huangtai Fort. Can't they just pass through Huangtai Fort? World Destroying Ghost
Although the soldiers are strong and can bypass the mountains on both sides, the losses must not be small, and the speed is much slower."
There are some common senses in the world of cultivation that everyone knows, needless to say, Shi Yi.
Except for the elite cultivators, most of the troops are still unable to escape and march together on a large scale. First, the soldiers have limited cultivation, and second, once they escape, everyone has different speeds, which can easily cause chaos.
But true capture is not about hit and run. A powerful monk can capture a city on his own, but he will never be able to truly occupy it. Various trivial matters require a lot of manpower to arrange and handle.
And occupying a vast area near a city requires many small teams of soldiers to carry out the task from village to house.
Therefore, even if there are powerful people who can control the country, a war between big countries still requires the dispatch of a large number of troops. The significance of Huangtai Fort to the Hongwu Celestial Dynasty lies in this. It cannot stop the top powerful people of the demon clan, but it can
Block the monster army.
If it was just the Demon Emperor who came in alone, what would be the point? The Hongwu Celestial Dynasty also had several powerful people who controlled the country, and sooner or later they blocked it and surrounded and killed it together.
The world-destroying ghost soldiers of the Jiu Ming Sect should be hidden in treasures such as the Small Cave Heaven. Once the Great Ritual of Extermination is activated, they will all be summoned.
However, this type of spell has certain restrictions. Once the Great Artifact of Extermination falls, it cannot move. These ghost soldiers of world annihilation can only come out of the Great Artifact of Extermination. Even within the Great Artifact of Extermination, there is a similar building
At the "Bing Gate", they can only walk out of it, so they cannot appear directly behind Huangtai Fort.
Song Zheng thought for a while and said: "I can't guess what their purpose is, but I definitely don't want people in Huangtai Castle to know."
Fighting is still raging near Huangtai Fort, and shouts of killing are heard from the market. The Anti-Heaven Alliance, Spirit Fire Society, and Noble Alliance are still resisting, and there are other Xuan Tong realms, including the Jiu Ming Sect's world-destroying ghost soldiers.
, all clearing out the rebels in the market.
"Now everyone feels that Jiu Ming Sect's goal is Huangtai Fort." Song Zheng pondered and analyzed: "If these two huge world-destroying ghost soldiers pass through Huangtai Fort, they have not been completely wiped out.
We may use magical tools such as homophonic bone talismans to report to the rear, so that the Tongzhou and the imperial court will be alert."
Shi Yi still felt confused: "But even if we have been deceived, what is the use? What does the Jiuming Sect want to do? To capture Tongzhou City just by relying on the World-Destroying Ghost Soldiers? That is impossible.
And pitting a sect against a dynasty, they wouldn’t be so stupid, right?”
Song Zheng shook his head: "I can't guess what they want to do. Let's not worry about it for the time being. Let's save our lives first."
"That's right." Shi Yi nodded.
The three of them looked at the Corpse Mountain and Sea of Bones Altar again. As they got closer, they could feel the enormity and terror of this thing more and more.
The entire altar is divided into three parts. The bottom is a vast sea of corpses. Countless refined corpses of bronze and iron corpses are piled together in a messy manner. They are glued together by some kind of force and will not fall apart.
Among the corpses, there were demons, beasts, insects, and various special races that could not be named. I don’t know how long it took Jiu Ming Sect to collect so many corpses.
One level up, there is a mountain of bones. Various ribs, legs, bones and bones are superimposed and interspersed in one place. It is so pale that it makes people feel chilled in their souls just by looking at it.
The top floor is an altar carved from pitch-black rock from the netherworld. It is protected by a spiritual array and filled with black mist, making it difficult to see what is inside.
But across the distance of several thousand feet, Song Zheng's Yin God also felt a deep fear. This was the first time since he became a Yin God.
He motioned to the two people around him and looked towards the bottom of the altar. In the sea of corpses, three "corpse portals" were opened. Each one was a hundred feet wide, and hanging on the portals were "death portals" made of countless bones and skulls.
"Bead Curtain", a world-destroying ghost soldier is walking out of the door, the bead curtain collides and makes a clanging sound.
The three portals face three directions respectively. One is facing Huangtai Fort. This is where the world-destroying ghost soldiers in Huangtai Fort come from.
The other two were on both sides, and the army of world-destroying ghost soldiers merged into the two teams that were passing by.
Song Zheng looked around and motioned to the two of them to wait for him. He quietly returned to Huangtai Castle. A moment later, he came back empty-handed, but then he opened the small cave world: there were three world-destroying bodies hidden in it.
The ghost soldiers have been dealt with by him.
"What do you want to do?" Shi Yi had a bad premonition.
Song Zheng said: "Sneak in."
The body of the Ghost Soldier he searched for was just right, similar to the three of them. He took out the three Ghost Soldiers, selected one that was similar to himself, quickly peeled off the armor, and then cut the wounds on the Ghost Soldier
He grabbed some pus and blood and smeared it on his body, and a nauseating stench suddenly hit his face.
Shi Yi almost vomited and shook his head repeatedly: "Just kill me, I will never..."
On the side, Zhao Xiao silently peeled off the armor from the smallest body of the world-destroying ghost soldier. Like Song Zheng, he covered himself with pus and blood. Then he ignored Shi Yi and he and Song Zheng put on each other's armor.
.
Shi Yi bit the bullet and said, "Okay, in order to survive."
Song Zheng turned around and smiled at him, everything was self-evident.
The three of them had "dressed up". Song Zheng looked left and right, but still felt dissatisfied. He took out a knife with his backhand, cut some carrion on the corpse, chopped it up and smeared it on Shi Yi's face.
"Wow"
Shi Yi really couldn't bear it this time and vomited it out. Song Zheng waved his hand and the surrounding soil quickly covered his vomit.
Shi Yi apologized repeatedly: "It's my fault... But scholar, can you tell me in advance and give me some preparation?"
Song Zheng said coldly: "I told you in advance, can you agree?"
Shi Yi thought for a while and felt that if the scholar really asked him in advance, he would probably get scolded by him. Zhao Xiao on the side curled his lips in disdain, and Shi Yi's face immediately turned red: "What are you afraid of? If you are not afraid of death, you are still afraid of a little dirty smell.
?”
Song Zheng nodded and praised without sincerity: "Qian Wang Shi, calm and unpretentious, a true man of iron and blood!"
Shi Yi frowned, feeling like he was scolding himself rather than praising him; Song Zheng had already turned around, with a handful of minced meat stuck to his face.
He was quite cruel to himself, but he almost vomited it out. He held it in for a long time and kept telling himself: Don't vomit. If he did vomit, he would become Shi Yi's laughing stock.
Zhao Xiao, on the other hand, made people look at him with admiration. He seemed so unaware of the whole process.
The two men were in admiration for her.
The world-destroying ghost soldiers of the Jiuming Sect are well-equipped. Each of the world-destroying ghost soldiers is fully armored, but there is no face protection. After the three of them were dressed neatly, they gathered their full aura and absorbed the power of the soul. At first glance,
, are really just three ordinary ghost soldiers.
It's a pity that there is no way to cover your eyes. If you meet someone from the Jiu Ming Sect, you can only roll your eyes and pretend to be confused.
"Are you ready?" Song Zheng asked, Shi Yi and Zhao Xiao nodded together, and the three of them quickly rushed towards the terrifying altar of death.
There was a dead air here, there were no living creatures at all, and there were no people from the Jiuming Sect to guard them. The three of them arrived under the altar very smoothly, with their backs pressed against the altar, hiding and looking up at the corpses that had been refined like
Copper and iron were stiff and harsh, but the three of them couldn't help but wonder whether they were leaning on their hands, feet, or the top of their knees...
Song Zheng looked to both sides again, and there was a small hole diagonally above, similar to a window. He greeted the two of them secretly, pointed to that location, and the three of them endured nausea and climbed up.
…
At the top of the altar, in the thick black mist, there was a terrifying blood pool three feet square.
In the blood pool, scarlet pus and blood rolled, like a volcano about to erupt. The power of death in the entire space condensed into layers of gray mist, which was so thick that it could not be dispersed.
Surrounding the blood pool, there are five dark iron chairs. The iron chairs are carved with countless arms struggling to escape before death. It seems that countless wronged souls are imprisoned in these iron chairs along with the body, from time to time.
I could hear a deep but sad howl coming from the chair.
The iron chairs were empty, with a strange eyeball floating in the air above each chair.
These eyes are about the size of fists, and are covered with tiny blood vessels on the surface. They spread out one by one and go deep into the surrounding void. They seem to be connected to something. They are constantly squirming consciously and drawing power from the surroundings.
His eyes are agile, constantly moving and looking around.
The eyeball on the iron chair in the center is twice the size of the others, and it is obviously the leader.
