Chapter 66 Chapter 66: Appeal to the water tribe with emotion and reason...
Most of Bai Lu's classmates are human, and Immortal Ke Yun was also a human before his reincarnation. In their imagination, Immortal Ke Yun is a human baby. They didn't expect to see Wang Cai sleeping on his back in armor...
"So, ancestor Keyun was reincarnated as a demon?" Ning Yanhu nodded thoughtfully. If it was a demon, then it was no wonder that so many complications arose and it could not be found for a while.
Moreover, from the way Wangcai was sleeping soundly in the midst of the raging battle, she could really tell a bit about the state of Ancestor Keyun...
Xuanshan said that "everyone came out in full force", but in fact there were still a few people looking after the house, and the supreme elders were also guarding at home, so Patriarch Wangcai was the most senior elder on the scene, no doubt about it.
"I've never seen an elder at the level of the supreme elder, he's so powerful." Liang Mangu said deeply, and couldn't help but reach out and rub Wangcai's belly, it was so soft.
"And the old ancestor's clothes are so beautiful, they are obviously treasures at first glance." Ding Douhua touched the old ancestor's armor with admiration, and as her fingers slid over the armor, a faint glow would appear, as if it was always ready to protect the body.
Meng Caiqing pondered and said, "Is the ancestor still breastfeeding?"
Her words woke up Wangcai who was sleeping soundly, and he thought it was thunder.
His legs twitched, his eyes opened, and Wangcai saw many unfamiliar faces gathered above him. He didn't have time to distinguish that these faces were actually his close disciples of Xuanshan. His whole body trembled, and he screamed a few times: "Woof woof woof!"
The chubby body flipped out of Bai Lu's hands, fell to the ground, shook off its fur, took a few steps back nimbly, and looked at them vigilantly.
As he stepped back, his body bumped into a furry body. Wangcai looked back and saw a huge bird!
Wangcai saw something he had never seen before and started barking at the giant bird.
It was the Luo Luo bird that was hit. He flapped his wings to dodge twice, but it was difficult to attack, so he just begged for mercy, "Ancestor, please don't be so mean to me."
However, Wangcai did not recognize the name "Old Ancestor". Not only did he call Luo Luo twice, he was also attracted by his tail hair and pounced on him, causing Luo Luo to scream again.
Bai Lu felt quite warm watching this scene, probably because he was the one chasing Luo Luo in the past, so he couldn't help but sigh: "It's really chaotic."
Everyone: “…”
Bai Lu's choice of words is still so wonderful...
"Ancestor, Ancestor Wangcai, come and have something to eat." When Bai Lu called out the word "Wangcai", the ancestor naturally accepted it, gave up Luo Luo's tail hair, and ran towards Bai Lu.
It’s not that he doesn’t respect the ancestor, but when he calls him Immortal Lord Keyun, the ancestor ignores him and only recognizes the name Wangcai.
Bailu skillfully took out a bowl and poured some goat milk into it, letting Wangcai lick it.
Now that he was awake for a while, Wangcai could tell that these people all had the same familiar aura as Bai Lu, or maybe it was because they had food. In any case, he was no longer frightened and buried his head in his bowl, concentrating on eating.
The disciples of Xuanshan squatted beside him, touched Wangcai's back one by one, and continued what they had not finished saying just now.
"The ancestor's hands feel furry."
"Can I hug the ancestor later? I want to get some of his divine energy."
"Not good, haven't you heard of it, the one that the ancestor cultivated..."
"Stop talking." Bai Lu said mysteriously, "Do you know that the armor on the ancestor looks thin, but it is actually very powerful?"
Ning Yanhu said without surprise: "It is more than amazing. Immortal Lord Keyun spent countless efforts to refine this life-saving magic weapon. The emperor of the previous dynasty coveted it but never found a chance to destroy it."
Bai Lu: "Is that so? No wonder it's so useful to use the ancestor as a shield!"
Ning Yanhu: "..."
No, you? ?
Ning Yanhu looked around and whispered, "Don't let the elders hear it. Did the ancestor let you use it this way?"
Fortunately, due to the chaos at the scene and the long battle line, the elders gradually dispersed and didn't notice it. Anyway, Ning Yanhu was in Yicheng to coordinate the operations.
"But it's really useful..." Bai Lu emphasized again that this is the life-saving magic weapon of the Three-No Realm Patriarch, "Those ghosts were directly rebounded to death."
The classmates exclaimed: "Amazing! He is worthy of being the Grand Elder. He has such fighting power even before he is weaned!"
"I want to see it too... Can I hug the ancestor when we fight later?"
"You just need to do the logistics here." Ning Yanhu didn't quite agree at first, but everyone was saying that Bai Lu had been fighting alone for so long, so at least they should be allowed to leave the field for about the same amount of time. Ning Yanhu could only nod speechlessly.
"Great, let me see what the Netherworld ghosts are capable of!"
"Hey, I heard that there were several great wars between good and evil thousands of years ago. We won the last one and forced the evil cultivators into Jintingzhou. Now they want to make a comeback and release the ghosts from the underworld as the vanguard."
"But we won't retreat even a single step!"
Ning Yanhu rubbed his forehead and said, "I emphasize again, you must be careful when you go down to the Foundation Establishment Stage. Do you think these many ghosts and monsters are just a joke? I don't know what tricks the demon cultivators have in mind."
These ghosts from the underworld kept pouring out as if there was no end, and the evil cultivator was a bit fierce this time.
Although Bai Lu and these classmates are at the Foundation Establishment Stage, practice has proven that their combat capabilities are not weak, especially when they are united.
"Don't worry, Senior Sister!"
"Wait for me, let me recover, and then we'll attack together." Bai Lu was afraid that they would abandon her to fight.
"Junior Brother Pei, please take care of them. I'm going to go find some reinforcements." Ning Yanhu saw that the scene was more grand than he had imagined, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Hasn't the letter been sent? Where are you going to find reinforcements, Senior Sister?" Everyone else was puzzled.
Ning Yanhu glanced at the Grand Canal and said, "Haha, the Netherworld army is coming across the river and the sea. How could the aquatic creatures not be aware of it? They are just pretending to be dead and not getting involved."
Oh, Aqua!
Bai Lu also remembered a detail. The Nightmare Ghost said before that they were avoiding the Water Tribe when they passed through the border, but now the fight has been going on for so long, it is impossible that the Water Tribe still doesn't know about it.
In ancient times, Xingjie Island was home to the most aquatic creatures, and it retreated to the present North Sea due to landform changes. The North Sea is connected to this canal, and is between the two continents. As the battle line lengthens, they must cross the sea.
Aquatic creatures, especially sea creatures, have the least overlap with everyone's activity area. With such a big commotion, they can hide in the deep sea. No matter how the two netherworld armies of good and evil fight, they will not be affected for a while. They can just wait and see the situation after the outcome is decided.
"The water tribe has always been like this," Luo Luo said disdainfully, "After the Dragon King and his tribe ascended to heaven, the remaining water tribes also acted on their own, without a backbone. No, they even lost their backbone. The Netherworld Army was causing chaos right above their heads, but they didn't even make a sound. It's a waste that the human race is still worshipping the Dragon King."
——They say they are offering sacrifices to the Dragon King, but in fact, other aquatic creatures are also offered sacrifices as if they were the Dragon King. This all stems from the ancient times’ yearning for and respect for the dragon clan.
Bai Lu also saw local people offering sacrifices to the Dragon King and lighting dragon lanterns in Shenguang Bay.
"Then I have to give it a try." Ning Yanhu said helplessly, "At least, we have to make sure they don't have any intentions of defecting to the side of the demon cultivators."
That's true.
Ning Yanhu was used to doing these things, and was going to appeal to the water tribe with emotion and reason, but Bai Lu pulled her aside and whispered in her ear: "Big sister, let me tell you..."
"Hmm?" Ning Yanhu frowned as he listened, then slowly opened his mouth a little wider and squinted his eyes, "Isn't this bad?"
Bai Lu muttered a few more times, and then said in a voice loud enough for everyone to hear: "If it doesn't work, notify my master. He is wandering back and forth. Tell him what I said!"
"That's your idea. I don't dare to order you around like that." Ning Yanhu still had some hesitation on his face, but after thinking about it, he decided to go. "Okay, I'm leaving. If it doesn't work, I'll give it a try."
Ning Yanhu flew down from the city wall.
The others stared at Bai Lu and pressed him, "Brother Bai, what were you talking about with the senior sister?"
"Ah." Bai Lu took a pill sponsored by Pei Zhaoting, then sat cross-legged and said, "I gave Senior Sister an idea on how to persuade the water tribe. I hope she doesn't need to use it."
As he spoke, he sank his mind into a state of meditation.
Bai Lu concentrated on absorbing the medicinal power, restoring his strength, and feeling his spirit being slowly warmed up, especially because the arrival of Xuanshan's classmates gave him a sense of security, allowing him to meditate in front of the formation with peace of mind.
Gradually regaining consciousness, Bai Lu heard a commotion outside the city. She opened her eyes and saw Liang Mangu and the others lying on the wall in amazement.
"What, what? Let me see too!" Bai Lu cried out anxiously. Qiusuo helped him up and went forward to take a look.
I saw several huge snakes appearing in the Netherworld Army, whose numbers had not decreased after fighting for a long time. When they flew into the air, they were almost as high as the city wall.
"Oversize snake!" Bai Lu's pupils dilated, and she thought of an old friend. She asked Qiusuo, "Qiusuo, qiusuo, could this also be some ancient monster?"
The ancient monster that Posaer summoned doesn't have that kind of power. If this is also an ancient monster, it will be difficult to fight.
"No, this is a mountain snake where the Netherworld creatures gather." Qiusuo identified it, "Legend has it that when the Netherworld Yin snakes gather into one, like a mountain, their cultivation will double."
This mountain snake is just as its name suggests. It is as big as a mountain and is extremely intimidating when it appears in the formation. Most of the ghosts and monsters that attacked previously were low-level, but as the righteous side gradually received more reinforcements and more masters, they also found new ways to gather into giant snakes with extremely high cultivation levels.
The battle is escalating.
Bai Lu heard the battle report that many high-level ghosts and monsters had gradually appeared in other places along the border. It should be that the enemy realized that the ghost sea tactics were not enough and began to increase reinforcements.
"What a despicable demon cultivator, using ghosts and monsters from the underworld to weaken our strength bit by bit." A classmate expressed everyone's thoughts.
Such a large number of ghosts and monsters from the underworld were used as cannon fodder, and the demon cultivators hid behind to command them. They were indeed despicable demon cultivators. This scene filled people with righteous indignation.
Bai Lu had recovered. She held her sword in one hand and held Patriarch Wangcai in the other. "Shall we go down too?"
"Together!" Meng Caiqing pinched his fingers and swept everyone up to escape underground, "Escape to the Void and transform into a mountain!"
.
On the battlefield.
The Netherworld Army stretched out its front line long and wide. Even if Xuanshan came out in full force, they had to scatter and fight each other.
Pei Zhaoting moved the formation plate with his hand. The greater his ability, the greater his responsibility. He needed to deal with two mountain snakes at the same time, and there were constant harassment from little ghosts around him. He could only slide on his sword and keep changing his position.
Several Night Corpse Gods pounced on Pei Zhaoting along the way, but failed to hit him.
Pei Zhaoting had some sweat on his forehead. He had to concentrate all his attention while facing two mountain snakes and avoiding these monsters at the same time.
The Night Corpse Gods laughed softly, thinking that they would soon be able to enjoy the internal organs of this Thunder-Listening Realm monk.
Suddenly, a large cloud of black smoke appeared beside him. There were figures waving wantonly inside, like countless hands. He could even hear the faint voice of a nightmare ghost: "Run... Run..."
Pei Zhaoting's expression suddenly changed slightly, and the Night Corpse Gods became even happier in their hearts, laughing wildly, "Brothers, come together!"
The human cultivator closed his eyes, as if accepting his fate, and turned around. Without running or escaping, he faced the mountain snake and exposed his back to them!
He was terrified and he gave up.
The Night Corpses smiled triumphantly, morale is so important, that's why although the Nightmare Ghosts are average in strength, everyone is willing to be their colleagues and often act as pioneers.
With the nightmare ghost at the side and the army behind, I think the human monks must be scared out of their wits. The comrade who just appeared is the last straw that breaks the camel's back for the monk on the opposite side. Hahahahahahaha.
When the Night Corpses were about to pounce, a white cloud suddenly floated out from the black smoke beside them, which was quite abrupt.
Um?
Before they could come to their senses, a large number of water arrows were shot out from the white clouds!
"Ah!!" Dozens of Night Corpse Gods screamed and scattered instantly, looking at the black smoke in horror.
Countless hands were still struggling inside, until the black smoke dispersed more and more, revealing a row of monks wearing Xuanshan clothing. These monks covered their mouths and said, "Cough cough cough cough!"
One of them was holding a nightmare ghost in his hand, and it was it that was screaming just now!
However, it was not shouting "Run" to deceive Pei Zhaoting, but to tell its brothers from back home to run away.
The Night Corpse Gods were shocked and realized why Pei Zhaoting turned around. He didn't give up at all, but because reinforcements had arrived.
It was not their companions who came, but the ferocious disciples of Xuanshan.
One of the Night Corpse Gods couldn't help but curse, "So he was just pretending, pretending to be our Netherworld brother."
"What are you pretending for? Who pretended to be you?" One of the female monks broke down and cursed, "Even if I escaped here, you would still say I pretended to be you. I come from a prestigious and upright family. How can I be like your brothers?"
As for Senior Brother Bai deliberately releasing the Nightmare Ghost to create an atmosphere? What does that have to do with her!
"Don't waste your time talking to them." Bai Lu spat out some dust and stuffed the nightmare ghost back. Hehe, he knew it would be useful. After he finished killing the nightmare ghost, he immediately shouted in a high-sounding manner, "Everyone charge——"
He raised Wangcai Patriarch and took the lead to run forward...
Wangcai: “!!!”
Why is it rushing to the front? !
…
With a helper by his side, Pei Zhaoting successfully killed a mountain snake, which broke into several small snakes that posed no threat.
Bai Lu's Bifang Yanghuo stayed on the top of the city to guard it. Chao Tianzi was also in the sky. He and his classmates flew swords together, casting spells with magic wands in their hands. The vines were like long whips with a very wide attack range.
Other times, when you feel there is not enough time, when there is a need, or simply want to show off, you will hold up the ancestor Wangcai high.
Bai Lu grabbed two vines with her hands and glided on the sword. The vines were swung into the sky, and Bai Lu flew up with the sword.
The remaining mountain snake thought that this person was going to use his staff to cast spells to guard against possible attacks from the ground at any time.
But who would have thought that the next moment, the Bailu Wuhuanmu magic staff would hit the giant mountain snake's head heavily!
Without any magic, he just used all his strength, or maybe the acceleration of gravity, and hit it with a stick. This time, the mountain snake had no chance to break into pieces and escape. The whole snake froze and actually scattered into a ball of flesh and blood, and collapsed with a loud bang!
The entire ground seemed to shake violently, adding a stench to the battlefield.
Bai Lu landed lightly on the ground with the staff in hand. Because of the blessing of the wood nature of Muhuanmu, her close combat was boosted. At first glance, it seemed even more amazing than magic.
Liang Mangu screamed from afar: "Brother Bai, I thought you had repaired your device?"
Ding Douhua next to him corrected: "Brother, you want to say physical cultivation, right?"
"It's weapon cultivators. We weapon cultivators and physical cultivators are both strong, but physical cultivators rely on their fists. You see, Brother Bai used a weapon, and he just smashed it hard."
“That makes sense…”
"I have to thank Senior Brother Pei for the magic wand." Although Bai Lu sometimes felt that beating the enemy with a magic wand was not very elegant, she felt that it was actually quite impressive when she killed a mountain snake with the magic wand.
Before Bai Lu could say a few more words of pride, she saw that all the mountain snakes in sight had been killed by the Xuanshan people. The Netherworld Army immediately sent reinforcements, and huge creatures jumped out from the ground. At first glance, they were also big and long, and she thought they were mountain snakes again, but when she looked closely, she saw that they were actually some insects covered in blood scabs.
The skin of these insects seemed thin and tender, and their internal organs could almost be seen through, but they were not moved at all by magic attacks. While sucking various stones on the ground, they continued to excrete behind them, and large lumps of feces rolled out.
"Earthworm?" Pei Zhaoting, who had just taken a breath, immediately began to practice the formation again. A strong wind blew out, blocking the earthworm that was about to smash into the city wall. If it really smashed into the city wall, I'm afraid the city wall would collapse.
"These are not creatures from the underworld, but strange insects living in the ground. I'm afraid they have been summoned out for service!" Meng Caiqing identified them, because there are actually earth insects under Xuanshan.
But the earthworms are simple-minded and will show up for anything. They concentrate on finding food underground. Judging from their current state, they are obviously stimulated by being summoned.
When Bai Lu heard Meng Caiqing say that the earthworm was simple-minded and that it was eating and defecating at the same time, she suddenly had an idea, "What does it like to eat the most? Ore? Earth fire?"
In that case, use food to lure it away.
"Luo Luo!" Luo Luo grabbed the ore that the earth worms loved to eat with his two claws, flapped his wings and flew high, leading the earth worms to the other side of the canal.
The groundworms crawled under Luo Luo, occasionally standing up and raising their heads to bite Luo Luo, but they were all avoided nimbly, and they ignored what was under them.
The earthworm flipped over into the canal with half of its body buried in it, causing huge splashes of water and crushing many low-level ghosts to death.
Luo Luo whistled, "Okay, now is the time—"
"Ah!!" The ground worm suddenly raised its head and let out a painful cry, its body rolling in the river, and blood appeared in the muddy yellow water.
"Well done, Luo Luo." From afar, Bai Lu cheered for Luo Luo.
"?" Luo Luo looked back in confusion, "I haven't done anything yet."
The next moment, a cultivator suddenly jumped out of the river. Most of this cultivator's body looked like a human, but his hands were green crab claws with bloodstains.
Just now, it was he who gave the earthworm a blow.
Then, figures jumped out from the river one after another. They were all aquatic creatures with obvious racial characteristics. There were shrimp soldiers, crab generals, and turtle soldiers, arrayed on the river surface.
"Water Tribe!" Luo Luo was a little surprised. He never expected that the Water Tribe would really appear, and at an extremely fast speed. How did Ning Yanhu persuade them? He originally said that he hoped they would at least remain neutral.
Some ghosts from the underworld were also surprised to see the water tribe appear. The war had been going on for so long, and even other inland sects had rushed over, but the water tribe had not made any movement. Yet they appeared at this moment.
It can’t be…
"I knew I couldn't summon the earthworms, but who summoned them?"
"That's right, shit that big was even pulled into the water."
"They must be joining the war because of this aquatic tribe... They're shitting and pissing on their heads..."
Shui Tribe: “…………”
Veins popped out on the crab monk's forehead. It was unclear whether he was irritated or disgusted. He said in a deep voice, "Everyone of you, move forward."
Following his order, the water monks on the river rushed towards the battlefield together.
At the same time, in the rivers and seas along the border, water monks continued to surface and join the team to block the Netherworld Army.
Ning Yanhu, who had disappeared, reappeared at this moment, also jumping out of the water, with water drops rolling down his face, and said to the crab cultivator: "Thank you, fellow Taoist."
"Big sister!" Everyone gathered around Ning Yanhu when they saw her, "Did you really invite the water tribe here?"
Luo Luo also flew down and said in disbelief, "Is the mediation skill of the senior sister so amazing?"
In a short time, the aquatic creatures were mobilized with just a few words.
Ning Yanhu laughed dryly, bowed in the direction of the North Sea and said, "If the demon cultivators invade the Twelve Continents, the seabed will not be safe. The demon cultivators will definitely... definitely litter and kill the aquatic creatures. The aquatic Taoist friends all understand this principle. The aquatic creatures are very righteous. After the division was made clear, a large number of aquatic creatures immediately set out to fight."
After hearing what Ning Yanhu said, the Crab Clan cultivator also forced a smile and said, "Yes, our Water Clan is worshipped by the people of Xingjiezhou all year round. The evil ways are wreaking havoc on the world, and the Xuanshan Immortal Sect is righteous and awe-inspiring. We will definitely follow the Immortal Sect to help."
Seeing that their side had more help, everyone cheered and praised the loyalty of the water tribe.
Only Luo Luo still had a look of doubt on his face. He couldn't help but move closer to Bai Lu and whispered, "Is it true? Do you know what's going on?"
Bailu winked and looked up at the sky without saying anything.
The Crab Clan monks also came on the scene. When Ning Yanhu was about to leave, Luo Luo grabbed him and said, "Big Sister, tell me the truth, are the Water Clan really that wise? If they thought so, how could they have pretended to be dead for so long?"
Ning Yanhu glanced at the side and said, "Don't tell anyone - I was very clear about the righteousness when I went down, but they didn't listen and said they wanted to discuss it. I saw that they meant to discuss it until we finished fighting.
"So I can only say that if you don't take action immediately, we in Xuanshan have Qingdi Jue and Chao Tianzi, who will immediately move all the underwater plants in your North Sea away and cause a mass extinction of your underwater ecology..."
I'm afraid all the forces in the twelve continents know about the birth of the Green Emperor Jue, and they know that what Xuanshan said is true.
As she spoke, she covered her forehead and said, "And our Juntian Sword Master will also come and declare war on the water tribe immediately. Let's see how long you can hold out."
Anyway, there is only one central idea: if you don't help us fight, we will all die together.
Everyone: “…”
Junior Brother Bai said that this is the idea he provided, right? This is the level of the Uncrowned King of the Red Dust Trial, the First Disciple of Dianmei Peak, and the Demon Lord of Xuanshan—
I really want to say something, but everyone has to admit that no matter what others say, it may not threaten the aquatic creatures!
