Chapter 456: Lonely Ghosts
Three hours later, Zhang Yang upgraded two new types of soldiers.
One is a Dragon Soul Ranger who was upgraded from a Jatu Warlord and Adventure Hero and once again broke through his limit to become a Forbidden Knight.
One is a Dragonblood Guard upgraded from the Sarion Guard who once again broke through the limit and advanced to the Silent One.
The names of these two types of soldiers were given by Banzhuan, but they were not thought up by it itself. Instead, in the fourth sequence, the main body had seen these two powerful human soldiers.
Of course, at this stage, Zhang Yang's Forbidden Knights and Silencer, including the Destroyer Captain, are far from what the main body has seen in the Fourth Sequence, because in the Fourth Sequence, the above three types of soldiers are at least demigods.
Without the strength of a demigod, you are not even qualified to be a cannon fodder soldier.
Therefore, Zhang Yang simply merged the 12 Dragon Blood Warriors into the Silent Sequence at once, because for a long time in the future, even if they continued to break through the limits and upgrade, it would be too far away for them to truly bear the title of this type of soldier.
"What a pity, eight of them are not here."
Zhang Yang felt a little regretful. He didn't expect to complete the task so quickly. These eight people directly lacked 0.5% of the law concentration.
“There are still too few people!”
He sighed, now he is really almost fighting alone. He is not like his younger cousin. That boy has great ideals, great ambitions, loyal brothers, endless passion, countless admirers, and even a wife. Even if that wife is most likely a tragic pawn, he is still hugging his warm wife after all.
But what about Zhang?
More than a thousand years have passed since a relative first threw him the inheritance right of the village construction order, and his relationship with his hometown Earth has become almost non-existent.
Whether he admits it or not, every blood sacrifice of his little cousin seems to be a carnival, but in essence it is just a homesickness, and he doesn't want to break this connection.
So the clever little cousin saw through it but didn't say anything. Before leaving, he gave him a fragment of the Immortal Shield and one of his own ribs. In name, he wanted to save his life, but in fact, he was just pitying him, a lonely ghost who couldn't even go back to his hometown. How could that kid ever be afraid of death? Before the subject died, he must have been very lonely. Did he regret his ambitions?
Anyway, Zhang Yang regrets it now, but he can't say it, and he can't regret it, because there is no turning back.
The little cousin regards the fifth sequence as his home, but this home can only be used as a passing station because his home is in the fourth sequence. No matter what, he has to fight back and gain a foothold, or, like the main body, die there.
"Be prepared to fight until you kill everything here, and then turn back."
Zhang Yang swallowed his tears. This was his absurd life, a crazy life, a twisted life, a life that even he himself could not see through. Since it started here, let it end here! Seventeen Silent Ones were in front, ten Forbidden Knights were behind, and finally sixteen Destroyers.
Zhang Yang did not plan to send out the fourteen Destroyer captains because he wanted to kill the bloody coffin head, the wild boar demon, and the skull dragon.
As for the four reincarnated sword cultivators, they did not go out either. They had also obtained 0.5% of the law concentration before, but they were different from other soldiers. This law concentration could only be used to accumulate sword energy.
In front of them, in the seemingly barren landscape, it was as if a curtain was torn open. The seventeen Silent Ones broke it open with just their momentum. The same battlefield as before was slowly opening up again. The strange power was spreading, ghosts were screaming, and bone monsters were resurrecting. It was the same tactics, but it was different now.
Compared with before, all the Silent Ones have advanced to S+. Their strength and attack power can easily tear through the defenses of those bone monsters, and their own defenses have been greatly improved so they don't have to engage in a tough fight.
At the beginning, even though the bone monsters still had a huge advantage in numbers, the seventeen Silent Ones were able to kill a large number of them like a sickle harvesting wheat.
On the progress bar of the war flag thrown by Zhang Yang, you can see that the number of kills per second can be as high as 67. Then after the addition of ten anti-magic knights, the number of kills per second instantly increased to 128. The anti-magic knights are advanced from the Dragon Blood Rangers. Originally, bows and arrows were their best weapons, especially after possessing the soul force field, their bows and arrows can hit the target 100% of the time, because they can make the feather arrows they shoot turn and hit the enemy continuously.
And when they advance to the level of Forbidden Knights again, they no longer need bows and arrows because they are no longer needed.
As the ten people with the highest soul strength and the best practice of soul-nourishing talismans, they are qualified to say this. The reason why Zhang Yang left those eight people in Chungui City is because their soul strength is very inferior, so it is better to keep them at home to practice than to take them with them.
Therefore, their true souls have now reached S (450), the same as the strongest Destroyer Captain, and are only a little bit away from reaching the foundation-building standard for spiritual cultivation.
This gave them a more powerful and more flexible soul force field, so their weapons were the ice spears Zhang Yang had made earlier and the common magic word: Imprisonment.
Maybe it would not have any effect against the wild boar demon, the bloody coffin human head, or even the skull dragon, but it was extremely effective in slaughtering these bone monsters.
These seventeen soldiers easily blocked and controlled a three-hundred-meter battlefield.
In less than a minute, the mission progress bar on the war banner exceeded 5000+, but the sixteen destroyers had not yet taken action.
Then, a beam of blood shot up into the sky, and the blood coffin moved first, followed by the wild boar demon roaring, and even the skull dragon opened its eyes, as they all sensed the threat.
"If the True Soul is above A level, it will not be harmed by the Blood Coffin. If the True Soul is above A+, half of the combat power will not be affected by the Blood Coffin. If the True Soul is above S level, it will not be affected at all. Therefore, all Silent Ones and Destroyers will form a formation and defend under the banner of war, and the Forbidden Knights will be responsible for clearing the surrounding bone monsters."
"I will use the frozen dragon blood to lure away the wild boar demon. You, all the Destroyer captains, go and harass the skull dragon! As for Zhao Xiaoer, Tang Dashan and the other four, as soon as you make sure that the skull dragon has moved out, immediately use the rushing sword formation to bombard that skeleton!"
Zhang Yang quickly issued orders to ensure that every step was foolproof. Even the sword energy that the four reincarnated sword cultivators had just exchanged was enough to bombard for an hour! As he spoke, the blood light had already enveloped the area, and as expected, it first covered the area centered on the war flag. It was not that the blood coffin did not understand tactics, but the extremely yang, strong and fierce aura on the war flag was the most provocative to this weird thing.
It was certain that Zhang Yang would be attacked first by the Blood Coffin just after he had withdrawn the war banner.
“Buzz!”
A sea of blood instantly blocked everything. No one knew what was going on inside. It looked so weird, but Zhang Yang had the results that Ban Zhuan had painstakingly evaluated, so he was not afraid.
"Get started!"
Zhang Yang flew to one side of the battlefield, with a whole tank of ice-cold dragon blood in his hand, and he even spilled some on purpose.
“Ouch!”
The wild boar demon really had a keen sense of smell. He roared wildly, and his body suddenly became as big as a mountain, and he rushed over with a rumble.
At the same time, the auras of the fourteen Destroyer captains were directly locked onto the skull dragon.
This guy is very strong, you can tell just by looking at the evaluation of the bricks.
"Netherworld Bone Dragon, Legendary SS+, God's Summoning Creature (True Blood Body + True Soul 25%), Law Concentration 40%."
"Summoning lifespan: 10 years, Life SS+ (200,000), Strength SS+ (1500), Endurance SS+ (1500), Defense SS+ (1500), True Soul S+ (500)."
"Pros and cons assessment, this is a powerful existence, but its weakness is that its goal is very clear, it is here to protect the bones of the demon king."
——
Logically speaking, the fourteen Destroyer captains would definitely not be able to defeat this Nether Bone Dragon, but Banzhuan's assessment gave Zhang Yang hope.
He ordered all the soldiers to hold back the blood coffin, and he used the ice-cold dragon blood to hold back the wild boar demon. He then ordered fourteen Destroyer captains to attack the Nether Bone Dragon. So what would happen if the four reincarnated sword cultivators suddenly used the rushing sword formation to directly bombard the Demon King's bones at this time?
So this is an attempt.
From the beginning to the end, he never thought about destroying the skull dragon. He just wanted to get rid of the devil's bones first. Without the devil's bones, the skull dragon as a summoned creature would naturally no longer exist.
As for if there is any chance of that happening, well, at the critical moment, he will sacrifice his little cousin's blood. It depends on whether Qing Fengzi will come?
“Boom!”
Just like the Yangtze River rushing down from the plateau, a rushing sword formation began to operate slowly. Even if there were only four sword cultivators driving it, and even if this rushing sword formation could only exert 60% of its power, its momentum was already overwhelming the evil of the blood coffin.
Because this is the law of good prevailing over evil, this is the rule, and this is the meaning of the existence of sword cultivators! Even in Zhang Yang's team, the four of them have always been so low-key and have no sense of existence. That's because they have not yet erupted their sword soul, sword heart, sword intention, and sword energy!
Just these four are enough.
The sword soul is the root, the sword heart is the trunk, the sword intention is the branch, and the sword energy is the leaf. In a trance, a hundred thousand Qingming sword energies rushed up to the sky for three thousand miles, shattering the dark clouds and crossing the Tianhe River! Then, the magnificent giant sword crossed the sky and struck the devil's bones with a bird's-eye view.
“Ouch!”
The Netherworld Bone Dragon roared as if it was stung, and hesitated for a moment before circling and rising up to meet the giant sword formed by 100,000 Qingming sword qi.
At the moment of interaction, the giant sword was blocked, but the black gas surrounding the Nether Bone Dragon was also being quickly consumed.
Sword energy defeats demons!
It can also defeat ghosts! If that was all, it would be fine. After all, the Nether Bone Dragon had the advantage in strength. But at this time, there were still fourteen Destroyer Captains. They didn't need any mounts at all. They could jump twice the speed of sound with just a bounce of their feet on the ground. In an instant, the figure was still in the same place, but the real body had already killed in the sky. Without any weapons, they only relied on a pair of fists and numbers to knock the Nether Bone Dragon out in the air.
Taking this opportunity, the giant sword swooped down and hit the demon king's bones with one blow. Black smoke immediately came out of it, as if something was howling.
The Nether Bone Dragon roared in anger. It could have killed these hateful little bugs with a few claws at any time, but it had to protect the Demon King's bones first. Every second of delay would lead to unpredictable consequences.
So it could only rush towards the Demon King's Bones and knock the giant rushing sword away with one claw. But the next second, fourteen Destroyer captains attacked again, making it unable to catch up and break the giant rushing sword!
"roar!"
The bone dragon became even more angry, and its huge body suddenly exploded, with white bones flying all over the sky. None of the fourteen Destroyer captains were spared, and they were all blown dozens of miles away. It seemed that the bone dragon had a main target, otherwise they would have been dead.
The bone dragon snorted coldly, and quickly caught up with the giant sword, breaking it with one claw. Then, its gloomy eyes stared at the four people who were operating the rushing sword formation.
Great strength means you can do whatever you want!
Zhang Yang's plan completely failed.
but--
"Death, monster! Here comes Qingfengzi from the Dao Sect!"
A loud thunder roared, and thousands of stunning figures appeared!
Before Zhang Yang could perform a blood sacrifice for his cousin, the person who was supposed to come arrived.
After all, no one is stupid, and a stupid person can't be the head of the Dao Sect, let alone survive for hundreds of years in this doomsday catastrophe! Zhang Yang took Qing Fengzi into account in his plan, so he deliberately let 100,000 Qingming sword qi soar into the sky, even if it consumed one-third of the sword qi reserve, in the hope that Qing Fengzi would see it.
But Qingfengzi had also planned for them, letting them fight in the front to contain the blood coffin and the wild boar demon.
With just one strike, the powerful Nether Bone Dragon was severely injured and disappeared.
The second thing to disappear was the blood coffin.
Then in the third second, Qing Fengzi stood with his sleeves fluttering right above the Demon King's bones, with one hand holding a sword and the other holding a magic weapon. In an instant, there was a thunderous sound, and when he turned around, the Demon King's bones were gone, and the endless white bone monsters turned into ashes.
Before Zhang Yang could even vomit blood, Qing Fengzi had already shouted, "Monster, why don't you kneel down and be tied up and wait for your punishment?"
The next second, the extremely ferocious wild boar demon really knelt down and waited for his fate. It seemed that Qingfengzi had gained a new powerful younger brother.
Zhang Yang suddenly felt a little confused.
"Your senior brother Yun Chuzi is missing. You can be my first disciple. You should still use your original Taoist name Yun Yangzi." Qing Fengzi walked to Zhang Yang and said solemnly.
"You - still recognize me?" Zhang Yang was even more confused.
“Haha, I used to be a Mahayana cultivator, and I have a fourth-order true blood body + true soul body. Even if I’m down and out now, I’m still not comparable to you, a little reincarnated swordsman. It’s not a grievance for you to be my first disciple.” Qing Fengzi sneered.
Then Zhang Yang was even more confused. How could this happen? "How do you think I have survived these hundreds of years of exile? Have I really been so ignorant? When that god was still alive, I and many of my fellow Taoists were indeed blinded by ignorance. But now that he is dead, if I can capture a few demons from the outside world and use the soul-searching method to obtain even a tiny bit of information, it will be enough for me to figure out the truth."
"Now, this world is in ruins. The real core spiritual veins have long been plundered and even fallen into the fifth sequence. The dead god took advantage of my unpreparedness to seize my disciple's body. Unfortunately, my entire plan almost failed. If it weren't for your help today, I would probably have to abandon everything here and leave. But this world is already so barren that it would be difficult to accumulate these resources again. Fortunately, it's okay."
"As a reward for this battle, I will pass on to you the Mountain, River, Sun, Moon and Demon-Slaying Stele."
"Whether you believe it or not, we are probably the only ones left in this world."
"I don't want to be a lonely ghost!"
