Chapter 444: Sacrifice to the Dead, the Beginning of Reckoning
The bloody battlefield was silent for a long time.
I don’t know who cheered first, but then the cheers continued like a tide, and soon, spread across the entire battlefield.
Please don't talk about becoming a marquis, for the success of a general is the result of the sacrifice of thousands of soldiers.
Although this war was not a war between countries, it was even more tragic and more important to the Five Phoenixes.
Not for fame, not for profit, just for survival!
As everyone knows, in ancient times there was an evil demon from outer space that destroyed an era of the Five Phoenixes. Now, the same crisis has happened again, but the Five Phoenixes have survived it, which means that an era of vitality will come again.
On the battlefield, everyone is full of vigor and there is hope in everyone's eyes.
One after another, figures flew across the sky at a rapid speed.
Lu Fan, who was sitting upright on the Thousand Blade Chair, was gradually surrounded by more and more figures.
"Young Master!"
Ni Yu's face was pale, but her big eyes were full of excitement. Her golden body broke and healed again and again, it was very miserable.
However, this battle was also thanks to the elixirs she generously donated, which maintained the fighting power of many people.
Zhu Long and Lu Jiulian also came over. Lu Fan glanced at them both and nodded slightly.
Thanks to these two, the pressure was blocked for Wuhuang.
Nie Zhangqing, Ning Zhao and others gathered together.
Sima Qingshan, Bai Qingniao, Du Longyang, Ni Chunqiu and others also gathered. This battle made all the people of Wuhuang united against the common enemy and put aside their inner grudges.
Originally, there was a gap between the practitioners of Wuhuang and Tianyuan, but now, this gap has long disappeared.
Li San Sui, wearing a bloodstained Taoist robe with red eyes, squeezed out of the crowd and rushed to Lu Fan's side.
She knelt on the ground.
"Young Master Lu..."
Li Sansui clenched his fists and kowtowed to Lu Fan.
"Please, young master, save my master!"
Li San Sui's voice resounded across the bloody battlefield like a tearing sound.
For a moment, the bloody battlefield, which was originally somewhat jubilant, gradually became quiet.
The smiles on everyone's faces disappeared.
Looking at Li San Sui who was kneeling on the ground, his heart suddenly became heavy, as if something was stuck in his throat and he didn't know what to say.
The Overlord sighed, his eyes flickering, recalling the image of the old man with kind eyes and a brave spirit ready to die. He couldn't help but grip the axe and shield behind him even tighter.
Jiang Li took off his military cap and his hair fluttered in the wind.
Everyone's eyes fell on Lu Fan.
If there is anyone in this world who can save the dead Qi Liujia, perhaps it is only Lu Fan.
Lu Fan raised his hand in vain.
Li Sansui's figure was lifted up from his kneeling position by an invisible force and stood still.
"I'll try my best."
Lu Fan said.
As soon as the words were spoken, the people around him were afraid to breathe.
Boom! A powerful spiritual wave spread out from Lu Fan's body. At a certain moment, the world felt as if everything in the world was undergoing a huge change.
Lu Fan, who was originally only the height of an ordinary person, sat on the chair and gave them a sense of loftiness as if he were a mountain.
Lu Fan pinched the seal with his hand, and a sundial appeared above his head.
On the sundial, the word "Lin" was constantly vibrating.
The next moment, the long river of time swept out and entangled around Yu Lufan's fingertips.
Relying on the power of time, Lu Fan seemed to want to condense Qi Liujia's figure again.
The picture keeps flickering.
Under Lu Fan's powerful spirit, the battlefield became very quiet.
On top of the Baiyujing Pavilion.
Gu, dressed in a blood-stained robe, looked at the scene blankly, his deep eyes revealing a hint of complexity and sadness.
He looked in the direction of the ancient tomb.
There, four skeletons were kneeling, and vaguely, he seemed to be able to see smiles on the faces of the four skeletons.
"Have a safe trip."
As Gu Mangran's blood-stained robe fluttered, he felt a little lonely.
All the familiar people disappeared.
The ancient emperor "Hao" disappeared.
The four kings also perished.
Now in the void sky, he was truly at a loss wherever he looked.
Lu Fan below used the power of time to rescue Qi Liujia.
Gu Mangran was not optimistic. If it were really so easy to resurrect, there wouldn't be so many regrets in this world.
On the bloody battlefield.
Suddenly, the wind started to blow.
It was a cold and solemn wind.
In the dim light, there seemed to be a withered lamp burning.
The soul fragments were like crystal stones, rising up bit by bit. Under Lu Fan's powerful force, they continued to gather together, and soon, they gathered into a vague human figure.
This is the residual soul that Qi Liujia left behind on the bloody battlefield! Lu Fan frowned.
He used the power of time to go back to the past and try to rescue Qi Liujia.
However, he felt a huge barrier, as if a pair of eyes were staring at him and low voices were whispering in his ears.
It was a creepy situation.
It was as if there was a thick haze that obscured Lu Fan's front, causing him to lose his direction and almost get lost in the long river of time.
"This is the chaotic rule of death after the collapse..."
"In ancient times, there were powerful ancient emperors who could control death. At that time, there might still be a chance to retrieve the souls of the dead and save lives."
“But in today’s Ninth Heaven, the world of death has long collapsed. Once a living being dies, the soul fragments will return to nothingness and will be completely difficult to find.”
A gentle and magnetic voice sounded, explaining Lu Fan's doubts.
"Disordered rules of death..."
Lu Fan frowned.
"You should deal with these things first. When we're done, you and I can have a good talk."
Gu Mangran's magnetic voice came over and said.
Lu Fan nodded slightly.
Then, he snapped his fingers and the water rippled.
On the bloody battlefield.
The remaining soul of Qi Liujia solidified and took shape.
All eyes fell on Qi Liujia's remaining soul. Many people felt their hearts tighten and were in awe.
"Old Qi's 'Ten Thousand Patterns Cauldron' formation is a special way of materializing the ancient emperor's imperial weapons. Although it has great power, it also causes great damage to the body. The original soul is burned to death... Only this residual soul is left."
Lu Fan said.
The eyes of many people around dimmed.
far away.
Especially Kong Nanfei, the hope in his eyes was completely extinguished.
If Qi Liujia could be resurrected, could he ask Young Master Lu to help the Master be resurrected as well? However, after thinking about it, he actually smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly.
Why resurrect the Master?
This is a bit crazy. In this era, if the Master were to be resurrected, how uncomfortable would he be to adapt?
Qi Liujia's remaining soul went from being confused to gradually becoming clear.
He saw Lu Fan and a relieved smile appeared on his face.
As long as Young Master Lu was alive, he knew that the Five Phoenixes had won.
He had always advised Lu Fan to compromise for the sake of Wuhuang's stable development, but he was wrong.
Young Master Lu chose another path for the development of the Five Phoenixes, although it was rugged and difficult, and even required making enemies with the entire world.
But……
This may be the best way for the Five Phoenixes under the leadership of Young Master Lu to develop.
Now, everything is just as he guessed.
The Five Phoenixes survived this great crisis.
And this victory will bring Wuhuang into a new era.
An era that is about to take off.
There was relief in Qi Liujia's eyes.
When Li Sansui saw the remaining soul of Qi Liujia, his eyes suddenly turned red.
“Master!”
In Li Sansui's heart, this kind old man, her master who was sometimes strict and sometimes very tolerant to her, had long been her relative, just like Li Sansi and Xie Yunling.
Lu Fan snapped his fingers.
An invisible force enveloped the remaining souls of Li Sansi and Qi Liujia.
Give them some time to master and apprentice.
The people around me felt a little depressed.
Of the 100,000 Great Black Iron Cavalry, there are now less than 30,000 or 40,000 left. Facing the attack from the army from the upper realm, it is already very difficult for so many of the Iron Cavalry, most of whom are in the Ti Zang and Jin Dan realms, to survive.
Lu Fan's eyes flickered slightly.
"Sacrifice to the dead souls."
Lu Fan looked solemn.
This battle was actually a transformation for him.
Originally, he looked at Wu Huang's changes and growth as an outsider.
He is like a big hand behind the scenes, manipulating the wind and clouds.
He even thought that if the Five Phoenixes were defeated and torn apart, countless lives would die tragically.
What should he do?
He might be sad, but after that, he might calmly look for another world to start building.
But after this battle, he understood...
There is only one Five Phoenixes.
If we fail and perish, then it will be gone.
If Wu Huang really disappeared, his heart would feel as if it were torn apart.
It turned out that, without realizing it, he had already merged into the Five Phoenixes.
Boom! As Lu Fan raised his hand.
A vast force surged, and the entire earth was like a carpet, constantly shaking, just like the changing mountains and rivers.
One after another, souls rose into the sky from the bloody battlefield.
The bodies of the great black cavalrymen trembled.
Because these dead souls were all dead brothers! Many men were in tears, they took off their helmets and watched solemnly.
Jiang Li's whole body trembled slightly.
He clenched his fists, looked at the dead souls, and gasped.
Boom!
Among the Five Phoenixes.
A tall city rises into the sky.
It's very gloomy.
There were ghost messengers standing in front of the city gate.
The city gates opened.
In the city, a figure greeted the cavalry with a smile.
Nine Hells Ghost Town!
Pluto welcomes you!
These dead Great Black Iron Cavalry were warriors in life and remained as underworld soldiers in death!
They will continue their glory in the world of the Nine Hells Undead!
On top of the Baiyujing Pavilion.
Xueyi Gu stared blankly at the ghost town.
His sight shifted sideways and landed on Lu Fan.
"What a courage..."
"Want to re-establish the rules and order of death?!"
However, Gu Mangran started to laugh.
It was a smile of excitement and anticipation.
"How courageous! It is worthy of being the only world in Xuwutian where one can become a high-level martial artist..."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
…
The memorial service for the dead souls on the bloody battlefield soon ended.
He was led by Tan Tai Xuan in the Nine Hells Secret Realm and became a member of the Ghost Town. At the same time, the power of the Nine Hells Secret Realm was also enhanced.
Boom! Suddenly.
On the bloody battlefield, Jiang Li held a silver spear in his hand, his eyes as sharp as lightning.
"The dead are gone, but we won't mourn or accept the change!"
"Today's revenge, today's grudge! The enemy must pay with blood!"
"One day, I will fight my way up to the Ninth Heaven and the Upper Realm. If I want to fight, I will fight to my heart's content. If I want to kill, I will kill to my heart's content!"
Jiang Li Road.
The words are like a vow!
His eyes turned to Lu Fan.
A strong wind suddenly blew up on the bloody battlefield.
The bloody gravel rolled.
Lu Fan sat upright on the Thousand Blade Chair, and Jiang Li's words seemed to ring through his ears like thunder.
After a long time.
He nodded slightly.
"Can."
Boom! With Lu Fan's consent.
All the remaining Great Black Iron Cavalry, and every Five Phoenix practitioner, had red eyes and roared in anger!
There is fire in my chest, burning fiercely.
Although the Five Phoenixes are weak now, their fire is only as bright as sparks.
However, one day, the Five Phoenix Fire will surely set the whole Nine Heavens ablaze with a mighty force, and make them terrified! The conversation between Qi Liujia and Li Sansui also ended.
The barrier dissipated.
There were traces of tears on Li San Sui's face. Although there was sadness in his eyes, there was more determination and burning fire.
Qi Liujia's remaining soul finally couldn't hold on any longer and began to dissipate, like a group of fireflies that suddenly dispersed at the touch of a button.
Qi Liujia's coarse cloth clothes fluttered, and a faint light was emanating from his body as he scanned the entire Wuhuang.
Looking at the whole world.
He smiled.
Looking ahead, vaguely, it seemed as if a fire phoenix could be seen rising into the sky from the Five Phoenix Land, dyeing the sky red, and spreading its wings up to the sky.
He stroked his beard and smiled, his coarse clothes fluttering in the wind, he stepped out, and the clothes began to dissipate from his feet.
…
The war was over, the cavalry withdrew from the bloody battlefield and returned to the land of Wuhuang.
The Five Phoenixes, the Human Emperor of the Great Xuan Divine Dynasty, Tan Tai He personally led the people of the world to welcome him.
Looking at the 100,000 cavalrymen, now only 30,000 or 40,000 are left, Tan Tai He's eyes couldn't help but turn red.
The practitioners all dispersed.
The world looks up.
You can see long rainbows bursting out in the passage of the bloody battlefield.
Some went to Xiliang, some to the East Sea, and some to Beijun...
Those were all the scattered Five Phoenix practitioners.
They want to return, retreat again, and practice hard.
Although Wuhuang won this battle, the hatred could not be forgotten.
Today the Five Phoenixes are stained with blood, and he will pile up corpses towards the sky!
However, in order to achieve this, every practitioner of the Five Phoenixes must practice hard. It just so happens that... the Five Phoenixes were deprived of a lot of their Dao essence in this Heaven and Earth Competition, allowing the Five Phoenixes to achieve ascension and transformation.
Above the East China Sea.
The vast ocean rises and falls, and the giant whale reappears.
The original energy floats up and down.
On the Thousand Blade Chair, Lu Fan held the Dao Yan Mirror in his hand, and within the Dao Yan Mirror, there were lines of great Dao Qi swirling.
Lu Fan glanced at him, expressionless.
Ning Zhao stood quietly aside.
Ni Yu was holding little Yinglong.
"You should go and practice... take advantage of the transformation of heaven and earth and achieve a breakthrough as soon as possible."
Lu Fan said.
“Yes.”
Ning Zhao and Ni Yu bowed.
The two of them retreated one after another. Little Yinglong nestled in Ni Yu's arms, not daring to make any unusual movements.
He was afraid that if he was not careful, his father would throw him to the big sister to be trained again.
After the two disappeared.
Lu Fan's figure flashed and disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was on top of the pavilion.
A blood-stained robe was fluttering, indicating that he had been waiting for a long time.
Lu Fan and Xue Yi sat opposite each other, took out the spiritual pressure chessboard, and the white chess box floated to the other side.
Xueyi Gu smiled lightly at his skinny appearance, picked up a chess piece and placed it on the chessboard.
Lu Fan glanced at him, rolled up his sleeves, and made his move.
"Mr. Lu, I would like to express my apologies here."
After a long while, Gu spoke in a gentle voice.
Lu Fan didn't say anything.
"If it weren't for Gu, the Five Phoenixes wouldn't have suffered this disaster."
Gu sighed blankly.
In fact, he was also very confused in his heart. Is it worth it? He revived from the ancient tomb and stood up from the coffin. The four kings who accompanied him for eternity left, and the Five Phoenixes were also involved in the war because of him.
However, thinking about the things that needed to be done next, Gu Mangran's sunken eyes gradually became firm.
"So, if Mr. Lu has any questions, I can answer them."
Gu Mangran made a move and said.
Lu Fan was not polite, he did have many doubts.
"How strong is the army from the upper realm that attacked Wuhuang this time?"
Lu Fan asked.
“If the strength of the upper realm is compared by a thousand points, the strength of this army is less than one point…” Gu said in a daze.
Lu Fan could guess this.
After all, the strength of the above realms is enough to gather a large army of powerful people.
This time, the ones attacking Wuhuang were just an out-of-body army.
"They knew you were going to revive, so why didn't they send a truly powerful person? A rubbish son of God...what can he use to kill you?"
Lu Fan asked again.
Gu opened his mouth in confusion, Trash Son of God?
But when he thought of the Cloud Clan God's Son being beaten to pieces by Lu Fan, he laughed.
Only you, Lu Pingan, can say this.
"You also saw that in that terrible crack... there is great terror. The creatures of the upper realm dare not set foot in it. Moreover, there are rules and restrictions in the Void Heaven. The stronger you are, the faster you will die."
Gu stared at the chessboard blankly, lost in thought, and said.
Lu Fan nodded slightly.
"How strong are you now?"
Lu Fan asked.
Gu Mangran smiled when he heard this. He understood that Lu Fan wanted to know the power division above the Immortal Transformation level.
"Above the level of Immortal Transformation, there is Immortal Su, and Immortal Su refines the five energies... When the five energies are perfected, one can return to the origin."
Gu Mangran's words were very general, but it was obvious that there was a vast realm behind them.
"As for my strength, although I have the help of the magic medicine, the rank of the magic medicine is too low. Now I have only recovered to the second level of the immortal realm."
Lu Fan raised his eyebrows.
"So how strong are you in your perfect state?"
Gu was stunned.
He shook his head but did not answer Lu Fan.
"The people who came to attack the Five Phoenixes this time are from the upper realm, the Cloud Clan. In the upper realm, those who dare to call themselves the ancient holy clan must have saints in their clan. This is a large clan with great power. With the current strength of the Five Phoenixes, they will be easily destroyed."
"However, you don't need to worry about these. Before the ancient emperor's soldiers were born, Void Heaven was the safest place for Wu Huang."
"And what you have to do is to continuously improve the strength of the Five Phoenixes, at least to the third level of the high martial arts world, so that you can have the power to resist the terrible disasters in the future."
Gu said blankly.
Lu Fan frowned.
"The terrible disaster in the future, do you mean the disappearance of the protective power of the Void Sky?"
Lu Fan asked.
Gu nodded blankly: "No power can exist forever. It will disappear sooner or later, so you have to be prepared."
The two continued to negotiate, and more and more chess pieces gathered on the board.
It was getting dark.
After finishing the discussion, Gu Mangran left the Baiyujing Pavilion.
The blood color faded and the blood shirt turned into a white shirt.
Gu Mangran disappeared between heaven and earth.
Only Lu Fan was left on the pavilion, full of thoughts.
Lines flickered in his eyes, and his mind escaped into the original space.
Looking at the hundreds of lines of inspiration engraved on the origin, Lu Fan gradually formed a complete idea of how the Five Phoenixes could become stronger.
The mind exits the original space.
Lu Fan leaned against the Thousand Blade Chair.
Giant whales float and sink on the sea, and waves are rising in the vast ocean.
The sea level seemed to be on fire, and the crimson clouds rolled up like a flaming phoenix spreading its wings.
Lu Fan's eyes flickered and gradually became cold and serious.
He cannot collect the debt from the upper world for the time being.
How could I let go of the debt to the lower three heavens so easily?
"Pingyangtian, Xueshatian and Yuancitian..."
"I, Lu Ping'an, treat people with sincerity, but you have assembled a million-strong army and want to crush Wuhuang. This is like stabbing a knife into my heart. No matter how good my temper is, I can't stand it for the blood of those Wuhuang people."
"It's time to settle the accounts..."
