After the Ghost Gathering Banner collected most of the evil spirits, the remaining pressure was not great.
Xu Luo just stayed near the huge ghost-gathering banner, quietly watching it absorb the surrounding negative energy and paying attention to the expansion of the ghost den within.
The expansion of the ghost den seemed to have no limit. As more and more negative energy poured in, its area continued to expand.
At first, the ghost cave was a circle, but as it kept changing, it turned into the shape of a round sky and a square earth.
This round and square ghost cave has a side length of three thousand meters, but it is still slowly expanding outward.
A side length of three thousand meters means it covers an area of nine square kilometers.
At this time, if the side length is only expanded by one meter, the increased area will be no small number.
It seems that the side length has only increased by one meter, but the result is that the area has expanded by 6,000 square meters.
In this huge space, there are only thousands of evil spirits wandering around, and there is also thin yin energy flowing.
As the area expands, the yin energy in this huge space now appears to be very thin.
As the master of the Ghost Gathering Banner, even if it was just the initial ritual, Xu Luo could sense that the evil spirits in the ghost den were being nourished by the Yin energy and their strength was slowly increasing.
As the master, he can also order to stop the expansion of the ghost den and use the Yin energy to strengthen the Yin spirits here.
But Xu Luo didn't do that.
These evil spirits are nothing but consumables, there is no need to waste too much time on them. It is better to upgrade the ghost den so that it can carry more evil spirits and Taoist soldiers.
However, when Xu Luo was guarding the Ghost Gathering Banner to prevent other evil spirits from coming, he found that several Taoist soldiers had lost contact with him.
Xu Luo quickly turned his gaze and, using the Taoist soldier's eyesight, discovered that they had encountered zombies.
After paying attention, I saw two more Taoist soldiers being torn to pieces.
Xu Luo frowned.
He discovered the limitations of Taoist soldiers.
When facing other evil spirits, he will naturally be invincible.
They are all Yin spirits, and the Taoist soldiers have been sacrificed and refined, and have various blessings, so they naturally have more advantages.
But it won’t work if you encounter zombies.
The Taoist soldiers' attacks did not hurt the zombies, but instead the zombies' evil spirit caused great harm to them.
Even if No. 1 is at level five, when facing a zombie of a lower level than himself, he can only hold on in a stalemate and cannot defeat it directly.
After all, it has not completely transformed at this time.
On the contrary, people from other peaks did not have to face zombies as hard as Xu Luo did.
The martial arts protector who had not been able to perform well before now showed his skills.
At the same time, various offensive spells such as the Fire Spell and the Five Thunder Spell were used directly. The zombies appeared, but they could not last long and were directly eliminated. The harm they posed was not much greater than that of the evil spirits.
This is the limitation of Xu Luo alone.
He can't cooperate with as many people as other peaks.
In the end, more than ten Taoist soldiers died for Xu Luo. He rushed forward with his master's magic sword and finally got rid of the zombies.
The loss of Taoist soldiers was a small matter, but what worried Xu Luo was that in the future he would not only need to pay attention to evil spirits, but also to zombies.
No one knows how many wild animals there are in the dense forest. Even if only one in ten thousand or one in a hundred thousand becomes zombies, it is still a scary number.
But fortunately, the long night was over.
As midnight passed, although there were still evil spirits attracted by the waving of the Ghost Gathering Banner, it was not difficult to deal with them because they did not appear all at once.
The task of cleaning up the battlefield was directly handed over to the Taoist soldiers.
Xu Luo just stayed beside the Ghost Gathering Banner, watching it madly absorb the evil energy that was about to dissipate.
It is not accurate to say that it is dissipating. Strictly speaking, it is about to become silent.
After the fifteenth day of July, the light and ethereal spirit once again prevailed.
Therefore, the turbid and yin energy that originally rushed out of the ground will be suppressed by the light and spiritual energy again and return to the ground.
At dawn, Xu Luo, who had been busy all night, ignored everything else and just did his morning exercises facing the morning glow, which increased his magic power a lot.
Then he tidied up and cleaned up the area around the cabin.
As for the Taoist soldiers, he sent them into the Ghost Gathering Banner.
I made a fire to cook, and took a look at the vegetable garden and the medicinal garden. They were fine and not affected.
After eating and drinking his fill, Xu Luo began to meditate and rest.
Even though he was not injured, last night was actually very dangerous.
He had used up all the talismans he had prepared, just to recruit more soldiers.
Later, when the evil spirits attacked on a large scale, he didn't even have time to recover and could only use talismans to hold on.
Fortunately, all this is over.
Having survived the most dangerous Mid-Autumn Festival on July 15th, he was not so worried even about the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15th next month.
Especially after having the Ghost Gathering Banner as his magic weapon, Xu Luo basically had a plan for his future development.
Although it’s a pity that I couldn’t become a sword immortal, life is full of regrets.
With mixed emotions, Xu Luo entered a state of meditation.
He hasn't had a long sleep since he successfully refined his spirit.
The Yin Spirit is formed again, so it doesn't need too long of sleep.
But this time, Xu Luo slept for four hours and didn't wake up until the afternoon.
The sun was shining brightly outside, and the rising negative energy had been suppressed without any trace.
After waking up and washing up, he found a talisman of Xuansu Peak.
The head of the sect, Taoist Xuansu, requires all the disciples of Xuansu Mountain to wear plain robes and keep vigil for their fellow disciples in the next seven days!
After receiving this news, Xu Luo fell silent.
Although he had known this result for a long time, he still felt a little depressed when he really knew it.
The people from Xuansu Mountain who came down the mountain guarded cities in various places last night and suffered many casualties.
There were various lists in the talisman, and the only thing that made Xu Luo feel fortunate was that there were no names of disciples from Tiandu Peak on it.
Although it is immoral to think this way, everyone has their own relatives and friends. Although he cares about other disciples, for Xu Luo, the closest ones are naturally his senior brothers and sisters.
However, after receiving this news, Xu Luo's originally happy mood still became much lower.
Just one full-moon night caused the loss of many spiritual Taoists in Xuansu Mountain. I think the other eleven Taoist sects also suffered heavy losses.
Can Taoism really persist?
Xu Luo did not forget how huge the black ball was back then, with so many evil spirits scattered in all directions, and it also summoned the native evil spirits of this world to join them.
As more and more people died, the ranks of the Yin spirits were constantly being replenished, but after the loss of the Taoists, it became very difficult to replenish them.
Even though the appearance of the Yin Soul Pearl has accelerated the Taoist's strength improvement, there is still a big gap between the progress and the increase in Yin Spirits.
In particular, in addition to ghosts, there are also zombies.
Thinking of this troublesome existence, Xu Luo frowned.
The existence of zombies is too restraining for Taoist soldiers.
