Chapter 1511 Crisis
Several soldiers on guard were gathered around the fire on the roof, cooking food in iron basins.
"Lao Gang, how long do you think we have to endure this kind of life?" A young man held a dry and hard pancake in his hand, broke it into small pieces with his hands, and soaked it in a bowl of boiling water. He asked the middle-aged man next to him while eating.
Lao Gang said, "Don't think too much. If Zhou Wen hadn't come here, Guide Prefecture would have fallen long ago, and there wouldn't even be a bite to eat."
"Of course I know this is the best situation now, but it's not a solution to continue like this. My parents and sister are living in a temporary building. If a dimensional creature rushes in, the consequences will be unimaginable." said the young man.
Lao Gang sighed softly, "There's nothing we can do about it. I heard that other places use the dimensional realm as a natural barrier to build human cities, but the dimensional realm in our Guide Prefecture is too strange. Where do you think we can build a city?"
"That's right...what is that?" The young man was halfway through his words when he suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
Several soldiers quickly stood up and looked towards the distance on the side of the building. They saw ghostly shadows on the distant street, as if countless resentful ghosts were wandering around and coming towards this side.
"Could this be an illusion?" Lao Gang rubbed his eyes and looked again, but was horrified to find that a fierce ghost was right in front of him, and he fell backwards in fright.
The evil ghost followed like a shadow and pounced on Lao Gang.
"Lao Gang!" The young soldier next to him summoned his companion sword and slashed at the evil ghost.
However, the steel knife transformed by the companion pet actually cut through the evil ghost without any hindrance, as if the evil ghost was just an illusion.
The evil ghost pounced on Lao Gang and disappeared instantly, but Lao Gang's expression changed. His eyes flashed red, which was weird and scary. His body stood up straight like a puppet.
"Lao Gang...what's wrong with you..." Before the young man could figure out what was wrong with Lao Gang, ghosts fell down one after another.
Several soldiers waved their weapons desperately, but they couldn't hurt the ghosts. After a while, they were pounced on by the ghosts and turned into strange appearances like Lao Gang.
Not only here, the entire Guide Prefecture was filled with wandering ghosts, rushing towards Guide High School from all directions, and anyone they met was quickly possessed by them.
"What are these...ah..." There were screams everywhere. In a short period of time, Guide Prefecture was like a hell with the gates of hell wide open.
The dimensional creatures in Mangdang Mountain have special properties. They are basically pure souls. Ordinary attacks seem to have no effect on them. In a short period of time, a large number of people were possessed and rushed towards Guide High School with the army of ghosts.
The army responsible for suppressing the ancient city was also possessed by ghosts. Not only did they stop suppressing the skeleton army, but they rushed towards the city they were guarding behind them.
The skeleton army also rushed out and ravaged the earth again.
On the top of an abandoned building, Crazy Swordsman and five others were admiring the city where demons were dancing wildly and it was filled with screams and explosions.
"It is difficult to hurt soul-type creatures with ordinary power. Although the level of these soul-type creatures is not very high, it is not so easy to kill them. Moreover, after they are possessed, it is even more difficult to eliminate them, unless Zhou Wen is willing to kill the possessed humans together..." The Painting Fairy said with a smile.
Qin Xian also said, "Originally, these soul creatures alone were enough to make Zhou Wen extremely anxious. Now, a calamity-level white snake has appeared. Even if Zhou Wen can resist, Guide Prefecture will inevitably fall. Hundreds of thousands of people will be possessed by wandering spirits and transformed into monsters that are neither human nor ghost. If the Lord appears to save them, Zhou Wen will have no choice but to surrender."
The Mad Sword Immortal said calmly, "If I want to use someone like Zhou Wen for my own benefit, this alone isn't enough. I need even greater pressure to completely destroy his psychological defenses."
"Are you planning to take action yourself, sir?" asked the chess fairy in surprise.
"It shouldn't come to that, you guys are enough." Although the Mad Swordsman felt that Zhou Wen was not comparable to ordinary humans, it was not to the extent that he had to take action personally.
In the eyes of the Mad Sword Immortal, Wang Mingyuan was the only one worthy of his attack. After all, Zhou Wen was only Wang Mingyuan's disciple. The strength of any immortal in the arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting was enough to suppress him.
"Maybe we don't need to take action at all. Just those soul creatures and white snakes are enough to make Zhou Wen collapse." Shuxian looked at the city that was on fire everywhere. Tens of thousands of people had been possessed by wandering ghosts. At this rate, the entire Guide Prefecture would fall in less than an hour.
Inside Guide High School, Zhou Wen, Li Xuan and a group of people had already rushed out. Seeing the streets and alleys full of wandering ghosts, they were all shocked.
Seeing several wandering ghosts rushing towards this side, Feng Qiuyan drew his sword and started to cut them. His sword was not an ordinary sword, but his soul. With this sword, he actually cut those ghosts in half, making their souls fly away, and even dropped a piece of dimensional crystal.
Mingxiu's sword also stabbed at one of the ghosts, but it passed through the ghost's body and failed to hurt the ghost.
"This is a soul-type creature. Normal physical attacks are useless." Zhou Wen has seen such creatures before. They are basically pure spirits, and physical attacks are useless.
Di Ting and the bird are the best at dealing with such creatures, but unfortunately Di Ting has been in the earring state and cannot be released, and the bird is still evolving and will not be able to come out for a while.
However, even without Di Ting and the bird, it would not be difficult for Zhou Wen to deal with these soul creatures. What really worried Zhou Wen were those people who had been possessed by ghosts.
Their bodies were controlled by ghosts and attacked their own relatives. It was not right to kill them, nor was it right not to kill them.
Because there was no outer defense barrier, Guide Prefecture fell too quickly and too many people were possessed by ghosts. This was the real trouble.
“Old Zhou, these dimensional creatures are so damn annoying… The Zhang family is the best at dealing with these things… But it’s too late to ask them for help now…” Li Xuan’s physical attacks had little effect on those ghosts, so he had to use the Planet Devourer to devour the ghosts.
But there are too many people here, and many of them are possessed by ghosts. Li Xuan cannot swallow them all. It is too troublesome to find those ghosts one by one.
The possessed person is even more troublesome. Li Xuan can't kill him, nor can he not kill him.
Zhou Wen's mind moved, and he summoned out Brahma directly.
The terrified Lord Brahma appeared behind Zhou Wen like a four-faced, eight-armed Buddha, as huge as a mountain.
Brahma has four faces. The front face shows no sadness or joy, and the back is shrouded by a black hole. The left face smiles silently, and the right face shows compassion.
