Chapter 640: Iron Bone Zheng vs. Skeleton Crocodile Demon
Sangle Youling has become a ghost cultivator!
She was dressed in a white dress, as thick as cold smoke, faintly transparent. Her skirt fell silently, floating three inches off the ground.
Her face still vaguely resembled the beauty she had when she was alive, but there was an inextricable sorrow between her brows.
Her long hair spread out like an ink waterfall, with misty threads flowing at the ends.
Her eyes were no longer black and white, but cloudy as if hazy, with two points of cold blue soul fire deep in her pupils.
Her ten fingers became longer and slender than when she was alive, and her nails were all black and gray. Next to her arm, there was a harp with a burnt tail ghost pattern floating.
Just now, it was she who activated this magic weapon, produced the sound of the piano, and opened the South City Gate.
The opening of the city gate is a big deal!
It can be said that the situation on the battlefield changed immediately.
However, both sides on the battlefield were stunned at this moment and did not react.
The Baizhi Immortal City had never expected that the former high-level officials would turn against them and directly activate the internal seal to cause the city gate to open automatically.
And the army of ghosts were unaware of the existence of Sangle Youling!
Even the head coach, Ross, was kept in the dark. He had no idea of the existence of Sangle Youling.
It turned out that after the Lord of Wangchuan learned the prophecy poem from the old man with gray bones (behead Youling and the city gate will open...), he had an action plan.
He first sent people to kill Sangle Youling, then transformed him into a ghost cultivator and kept him under his control.
The results of this action are now evident.
Why was the entire army of ghosts concealed?
On the one hand, Lord Wangchuan was not sure whether Sangle Youling, who was under his control, could really open the city gate. If it failed, he would not lose face.
Secondly, this is an extremely important military operation, so naturally the fewer people who know about it, the safer it will be.
Thirdly, Luo Si was recently promoted and had a strong connection with the Gray Bone Elder. The army of ghost soldiers sent to the Yang world was not the direct line of the Lord of Wangchuan Mansion from top to bottom. The degree of trust was not enough.
Sangle Youling succeeded!
After all, Luo Si was a talent who had worked his way up from the bottom. Even if he didn't know about this, he immediately reacted when he saw this scene.
He gave a decisive order, ordering the troops at the south gate to launch an attack.
Even if the city gate was opened, it was still narrow. It would be foolish for the army to rush in all at once, so only a part of them could be sent to launch an assault.
Without any hesitation, Ross immediately gave the order, asking the Headless Ghost Riders to launch a desperate charge!
The headless ghost riders started immediately, their iron hooves rumbling and shaking the earth. The ghost generals at the front were all at the golden elixir level.
Bang, bang, bang…
There were a series of dull thuds as the skeleton soldiers were smashed into pieces by the Ghost Riders' charge. Their broken bones and limbs were immediately trampled into powder.
These soldiers had previously bravely charged the city walls and blocked the Ghost Riders' charge route.
In order to save time, not only did the ghost generals continuously use the strategy of speed, but even their own dead soldiers were directly abandoned!
Because the opportunity is fleeting!
"Not good!" Many monks on the south city wall felt as if they were falling into an icy cave when they saw this scene.
With the help of military tactics, the enemy cavalry charged collectively, even injuring their own people, demonstrating a terrifying and cruel fighting style.
If these monks on the wall were also blessed with military tactics, perhaps some of them would have the courage to jump off the wall and block the city gate. They might be able to stop the cavalry for a while and buy crucial time for the city gate to close.
But everyone knows that they don't have any military skills to support them.
If not, jumping down and blocking the city gate with your body would be suicide!
Knowing that they were going to die, cowardice and fear took over, making these monks furious. They watched helplessly as the Ghost Riders trampled everything and rushed towards them.
"It would be great if the Qingjiao Army were still here!" The deputy commander of the city guards who was guarding this section of the city wall sighed.
He did have the urge to jump.
But when he looked around, he found that he didn't have many subordinates.
Even if he jumped, how many people would jump with him? Even if he jumped, the number of people on the city guard side alone would just be a waste of sacrifice.
It can't play any blocking role at all!
The results of the ghost tide's consumption of Baizhi Immortal City were revealed at this moment.
It was because the city guards had suffered heavy casualties that the Lord of Baizhi City had to summon monks from all the surrounding villages and towns, and at the same time reward brave men generously.
Although the defense force of Baizhixian City was greatly supplemented, the team was diluted and the overall quality dropped sharply, making a life-and-death battle impossible.
Life and death are just a thought away.
That's what war is.
The scope and degree of the impact on people's hearts and morale are much deeper and wider than they appear on the surface.
If it was the previous city guards, a pure team made up of good family members from Baizhi Fairy City, who were very loyal, it might be possible for them to block the city gate with their bodies.
Boom boom...
The ghost riders rushed to the city gate.
Sangle Youling had already taken the lead and rushed into the city.
"The Baizhi Immortal City is about to be broken!" The faces of several Jindan ghost generals in the lead all showed bloodthirsty and excited expressions.
But at this moment, the gate tower and city wall of the fairy city suddenly flashed.
Countless wallpapers flew out and turned into talismans, which spontaneously combusted in an instant.
All the spells in the talisman rose up into the sky at once, stirring up deadly colorful lights. There were a wide variety of spells, and at this moment, the headless ghost riders experienced a variety of ways to die.
Some were burned to death, some were frozen to death, some were struck by lightning, some were buried, some were corroded into ashes, and some were even controlled...
The Ghost Riders' offensive was contained!
The monks on the wall reacted and cheered. For a moment, morale was obviously improved.
Luo Si's pupils shrank slightly, and he murmured, "Iron Bone Zheng."
The one who could take action at this moment and rescue the entire Baizhi Immortal City from the abyss of defeat was the commander of the city guards.
Even though this move would severely damage the defense of the South Gate, Tie Guzheng still did not hesitate for a moment.
He has too much experience in defending cities.
How many times have you defended against the ghost tide?
Even he himself doesn't remember it.
"Just in this round, the wall at the South Gate has become at least 50% thinner!"
Cold sweat broke out on Tieguzheng's forehead.
Even if they defended against the terrifying charge of the Headless Ghost Riders, the South Gate, with its greatly reduced defense, would become the main direction of the enemy's attack.
He had no choice but to do this.
Ross threw out several military tokens in succession, distributing military forces and issuing orders for a raid.
Many ghost generals, who were blessed with military strength, immediately endured the explosion of talismans and rushed in through the south city gate.
Tie Guzheng was shocked when he saw this scene: "The enemy general is extraordinary, his reaction is so quick!"
He also urgently mobilized powerful monks to intercept them.
At the same time, Tie Guzheng also wanted to mobilize many wallpapers to stop the Jindan ghost general.
But at this time, Ross had already issued another military order, ordering the headless ghost riders to retreat, and the drowned ghost groups on both wings to continue the attack.
These drowned ghosts were connected in a row, and water vapor intertwined to form a river on land.
The drowned ghosts hid in the river, avoiding most of the talisman attacks.
The river meanders and rushes towards the city gate.
Tie Guzheng was forced to turn his attention to the Drowned River. Although he once again curbed the enemy's attack, he also lost the opportunity to pin down the enemy general.
Once the situation was opened up and the stalemate was broken, Ross demonstrated his ability as a commander and put a good general like Tie Guzheng at a disadvantage.
Music Art——Funeral Song of the Nine Springs!
Woo woo woo…
The Burnt Tail Ghost Patterned Harp floated beside Sangle Youling. The latter's ten fingers were in mid-air and did not touch the strings, but it still produced bursts of strange sounds.
The sound of the piano was like funeral music, ignoring most protective measures and reaching the soul directly.
The monks who rushed to her side suddenly became stiff and sluggish, with distorted and painful expressions under the sound of the piano.
Some people dropped their weapons to the ground with a clang, looking up at the sky in bewilderment, some kneeled down on the ground with weak knees, crying bitterly, some had vacant eyes, like zombies, and some even slit their throats and committed suicide.
Confucianism - the literary mind protects the body!
The next moment, Wen Ruanyu flew down from the sky and came to support.
He activated Confucianism, and words fell like rain, covering many monks and saving their lives.
"Sangle Youling, what are you doing?!" Wen Runyu looked at Sangle Youling with a painful expression and roared.
Confucianism - turn over a new leaf!
He cast a spell and hit the dead soul.
There was a change in Sangle Youling's numb expression, but only a slight one, which disappeared without a trace soon after.
Wen Ruanyu had already found out some details, and he couldn't help but despair. This was because he had just discovered that Sang Le You Ling had national strength on his body.
Obviously, this is the national strength of Wangchuan Underworld.
Unless Wen Runyu joins a certain cultivation country and can draw on the national strength, he can directly break through it head-on.
This is not a difference in power scale, but a difference in level!
"The problem is that national strength is only effective within the territory. Why can the national strength of Wangchuan Underworld be used in my world?!"
Wen Ruanyu was confused and uncertain.
He wrote furiously, and another burst of words flew into the air!
Confucianism - stop singing and dancing.
The words formed an article in the air, encircling a battlefield and greatly curbing the use of music techniques.
The funeral musician You Ling had been playing the funeral song and was not responding quickly.
Obviously, this was because their combat effectiveness had been greatly reduced after being forcibly controlled by someone.
Wen Ruanyu's pressure increased sharply.
This was because behind Sang Le You Ling, six Jin Dan ghost generals came together to kill him. What was even more terrifying was that they all had added military strength, and their combat power was close to the Yuan Ying level!
"How can we fight like this?" Even though Wen Runyu had deep feelings for Baizhi Fairy City, she could only temporarily avoid the limelight and preserve her useful body.
But the next moment, Confucianism rose again.
The warm white light not only blessed Wen Ruanyu, but also deepened the power of the previous article, suppressing the edge of the six ghost generals.
Wen Ruanyu's consciousness swept behind him, and he felt relieved. He saw Zhou Wenyan and a group of monks coming to support him.
It turned out that after Tie Guzheng realized that the South Gate would become the main attack point, he immediately moved there at full speed with his elite forces.
Zhou Wenyan's original location was closest to this place, so he was the first to arrive.
The six Jindan ghost generals communicated with each other through their spiritual consciousness and immediately joined forces. With a stronger force, they attacked the two Confucian cultivators Wen Runyu and Zhou Wenyan.
Even though the latter two are from super powers and are the true disciples of the Golden Elixir, they are still unable to contend with such a powerful force.
boom!
There was a loud bang, and the horrific collision did not occur between the two Confucian scholars and six generals, but at the base of the wall of the South City Gate.
The Drowned River suddenly exploded, a huge wave column burst out, and a huge monster broke through the waves.
This was a huge thorn-bone crocodile, and its four legs were higher than half of the city wall. Its thick bone armor would discourage most people who tried to attack it, and its armor was covered with huge, hideous, pale bone spurs, which could attack and defend at the same time!
And inside the Bone Crocodile's body, the roar of the Bone Crocodile Demon was heard: "The White Paper Immortal City must be destroyed today."
boom!
The Bone-Bone Crocodile moved its huge body like a battering ram and slammed into the half-thinned city wall.
The violent impact force immediately caused cracks to appear on the city wall, and then spread out in large areas.
The monks on the city wall fell to the ground, and those who stood still launched a fierce attack on the giant crocodile.
Various attacks hit the giant crocodile's armor, but with little effect.
The Bone-piercing Crocodile is also included in the military organization, enjoying the blessing of military strength, and its strength is close to the Nascent Soul level.
The thorny crocodile took a few steps back and was about to charge again.
If this wall were to be hit hard, the city wall would probably not be able to hold up and a large section of it would collapse.
The city gate was opened and could be closed again, but if a large section of the city wall was destroyed, it would mean that most of the White Paper Immortal City would fall into the abyss of defeat.
"Beast, look at the iron fan!"
At the critical moment, Tie Guzheng's eyes glared with anger and bloodshot, and he rushed out suddenly.
He stepped hard, and a wave of yellow light burst out from his magic boots, activating the earth-shrinking magic ban, allowing him to cross a distance directly and kill his way to the south city wall.
The situation was urgent. Tie Guzheng jumped directly onto the top of the wall. He seemed to be thrown out by a catapult and rushed towards the giant crocodile.
In mid-air, he raised the magic iron fan above his head and madly infused all his magic power into it.
Martial arts - Collapse of mountains!
The seal of the city guard commander glowed, and the White Paper Fairy City magic circle was blessed!
The Gengjin energy on the iron fan burst out and merged with many forces to form a terrifying blow.
The air was compressed to the extreme, making a wail of overwhelming pressure!
This blow was like an iron peak being swung up, smashing down with incredible force, bringing with it the power to break the earth veins and shake the city.
Boom——!!!!
The iron fan hit the skull of the giant crocodile with a terrifying noise.
A violent air wave exploded and spread wildly in all directions.
The nearest monks, no matter friend or foe, had their bones and tendons broken and blood gushing out of their seven orifices. They were thrown away like rag dolls and then smashed hard on the battlements or the buildings behind, leaving a bloody mess!
The giant crocodile roared.
The roar was earth-shattering and extremely painful.
Its huge body was smashed down and most of it sank into the Drowning River.
Crackling...
The bone spurs all over its body were also shaken by the impact, and countless of them were broken and shattered.
The white-bone crocodile demon inside the giant crocodile's body screamed, vomited blood, and collapsed.
The giant thorn crocodile was aroused and wanted to retaliate, but the white-bone crocodile demon quickly controlled it and sank all the way down to take an emergency rest.
This giant crocodile is the Skeleton Crocodile Demon's biggest trump card and also the source of his strength. He cannot be used up in the early stages of a war to consume the enemy.
The Bone Crocodile Demon also plans to rely on the giant crocodile to roam the battlefield and grab the spoils.
