A massive dark shadow, like raging waves, completely engulfed the remains of the demons and ghosts, stretching for more than ten miles.
The numerous clones of Qian Gui had long since been pierced by the claws within the dark shadow, emitting sporadic sounds beneath their ghostly visages.
“The Divine General of the Western Region, Ghost Shadow An Mingzhi, is indeed a formidable force. If your body is used to create a corpse puppet, it would be perfect.”
“If you want my corpse, why not come and take it yourself instead of forcing me to search for your main body?” An Mingzhi replied coldly.
“There will be a chance, but not now. Besides, I prefer the body of the Western Region Commander to yours,” Qian Gui replied.
“What do you mean by that?” An Mingzhi frowned.
Qian Gui didn’t answer, of course, but dispersed into the black mud.
At the same time, An Mingzhi’s divine mark emitted a golden light, and the words “Qiongyu City” appeared in the void.
Remembering the words spoken by the other party, he immediately flashed and rushed towards Qiongyu City.
Meanwhile, the major Heavenly Cities in the western region were being attacked by an endless sea of corpses.The Heavenly City Demon Slaying Department was led by a powerful official, at least one of the elite Red Lotus Demon Slayers, with many Thirty-six Stars among them.
They had originally received orders from the Commander to rush to Qiongyu City.
However, they were powerless in the face of the invading tide of corpses.
After all, they couldn’t abandon the vast Heavenly City.
Inside Qiongyu City, the earth trembled again, and Gong Du seemed to sense something. He said, “Mao Yin’s aura has become stronger. It seems like things are going smoothly on Qian Gui’s side?”
The Ghost Buddha holding the Soul Attracting Formation said in a deep voice, “No, the speed has slowed down. Hmm?”
As his words fell, the centre of the Soul Attracting Formation where the Ghost Buddha was sitting emitted a blinding white light from the black light patterns.
In an instant, the formation was damaged, and its ability to attract souls disappeared.
Ghost Buddha’s three heads showed anger. “Who dared to destroy the Soul Attracting Formation?”
Gong Du furrowed his brow. “The deployment of the Soul Attracting Formation in the Western Region was done in secret and took a long time. It’s not easy to destroy it. The only ones I can think of, besides the National Teacher of the Heavenly Tower himself, are his few disciples.”
As he spoke, Gong Du suddenly looked outside Qiongyu City and sighed, “It seems that our plan has been discovered. There are experts rushing here. I’m going to meet an old friend from the past. What do you say?”
Ghost Buddha stood up and angrily said, “If you dare to destroy the Soul Attracting Formation and interfere with the master’s plan, then of course I must crush this person to dust.”
“If I am correct, Commander Wine God of the Western Regions is also on her way. I have no confidence in dealing with her.”
“If you can’t handle her, someone else will. The plan for the Western Regions has been carefully arranged by the Master for a long time, and there must be no mistakes.”
“That’s good then.”
Xu Lexian patted the dust from his body, wiped the sweat from his brow, and complained, “Master always gives me the dirty and tiring tasks.”
“But I didn’t expect that these guys would have such big plans this time.”
“Fortunately, I had a junior brother to disrupt the enemy’s sight, so I had time to destroy this formation.”
“Hmm?” Xu Lexian seemed to sense something. He kept pinching his right hand, performing a fortune telling for himself.
After three breaths, his moustache stood up and he exclaimed, “A narrow escape from death?”
As he spoke, something fell from the sky like a mountain pressing down, carrying an incomparable power.
A white light flashed under Xu Lexian’s feet, and he retreated a hundred feet in an instant.
As he looked back to where he had been standing, the ground collapsed and a huge black figure appeared.
Aside from the three heads and six arms, the black figure had a powerful aura spreading all over it, of course it was the Ghost Buddha!
Xu Lexian smiled bitterly, “Master, you didn’t tell me before I came that this journey would be life-threatening.”
Ten miles west of Qiongyu City, the two met unexpectedly.
Gong Cang, the master of the art of sword and blade, looked at the other party with a blank expression, “How I wish I wouldn’t see you here.”
Gong Du shrugged, “To each his own.”
“Back then, when we toasted with An Mingzhi amidst the corpses of a thousand demons and ghosts, were your bold words just empty promises?”
Gong Du pondered for a moment before calmly replying, “The fervour we felt back then was simply due to our limited experience.”
“We exhausted ourselves for the western regions, but what did we gain in the end? Was it the carefree comfort of the Imperial City’s elite, or the pile of bones at the foot of the mountain?”
Gong Cang drew his sword from his waist, his aura surging as his clothes fluttered without wind.
“The Surging Sword, the Mountain-Cutting Blade,” Gong Du murmured. “An Mingzhi and I named these weapons.”
“If I perish under this blade today, it will be the end of our past. Rest assured, on the anniversary of your death next year, An Mingzhi and I will bring a jug of wine to your grave. After all, the sins of the dead should be expunged together,” Gong Cang said coldly.
“That’s intriguing, but perhaps I should bring two jars of wine,” Gong Du replied with narrowed eyes.
A sharp gust of wind cut through the sky like an arrow.
Lie Ying, who was in the city, suddenly stood up and looked out of the window.
“There are powerful aura fluctuations.”
At the same time, soldiers from the Military War Duke’s Army rushed in to report, “General Lie, the citizens in the city are going crazy and attacking people!”
“General Lie, outside Qiongyu City, a large number of demons and ghosts are appearing, the situation is critical.”
“Why are you panicking?” Lie Ying grabbed the long knife beside the table and roared, “Military War Duke Army, march out!”
“Kill!”
The roar echoed through the sky above Qiongyu City.
On the other side, three hundred miles north of Qiongyu City, the space trembled.
The corpses of demons and ghosts scattered across the mountains and plains, but in an instant they turned to dust and vanished.
Fu Ruoyun shook her right wrist and was about to continue on, but her steps suddenly stopped.
She looked up to see several ghostly figures standing in the air, surrounding her in a circular formation.
“Since you’ve come, why hide your head and show your tail? With just these few people, you can’t seriously hurt Bai Wudi,” Fu Ruoyun furrowed her delicate eyebrows.
As soon as she finished speaking, the earth beneath her feet shook and countless avatars of Qian Gui surged out, flowing like rivers into the sea before turning back into a single person.
At the same time, a stream of light flashed across the sky.
Upon closer inspection, the newcomer was also wearing a ghost-faced mask and a black and red robe, with a conspicuous number three on his chest – it was the Sword Ghost!
Fu Ruoyun’s expression became extremely solemn. The strength of the Avatars of Qian Gui was unquestionable, but the real threat came from the man above her.
Moreover, for some reason, she could feel a familiar aura emanating from him.
With formidable enemies surrounding her, Fu Ruoyun feigned ease and said, “If it’s just you, I’m afraid you won’t be able to handle me.”
As she spoke, a powerful move was already brewing, and in a fraction of a second, a burst of fist qi struck towards the Sword Ghost.
This strike was too fast and took everyone by surprise.
After all, who would have expected the respected Commander of the Western Regions to resort to a sneak attack?
However, the attack failed to land as it was intercepted by a flash of sword light.
“Extreme Intent, Furious God Fist, is indeed fierce and overbearing,” the Sword Ghost said indifferently.
“It’s actually you?” Fu Ruoyun’s eyes widened and she was on full alert.
