Chapter 661: Earthly Evil Collapse
The center and the end point of the Lord of Wangchuan’s century-long plan—the altar where the Heavenly Ghost Transformation Ceremony was performed, was now right in front of Ning Zhuo.
Ning Zhuo has already met the three conditions for ascending this altar.
However, the tributary of the Lethe River that surrounded the altar became the final obstacle.
"I only need one more step to break through this last obstacle, and then I'll be done!" Ning Zhuoxin thought.
Ning Zhuo was surprised at first sight when he saw a tributary of the Wangchuan River, but he quickly accepted it.
After all, the Wangchuan Underworld takes the Wangchuan River as its country name, so it is not surprising that it has more ways to utilize the Wangchuan River.
You should know that the capital of the Wangchuan Underworld, Xiancheng, is located on the Wangchuan River.
"But how do I cross this river?"
"Mother and the eldest brother are taking a different route, heading straight for the Immortal City of Wangchuan. They are facing the real Wangchuan River, not the tributary in front of me."
"Mother must have a way to cross the river, but why didn't she tell me?"
"Besides, where is the real body of Lord Wangchuan?"
This was Ning Zhuo's first time stepping onto the core battlefield here, and he had no idea about the previous battles between Lord Wangchuan and several powerful men.
"This Earth Spirit should belong to Lord Wangchuan."
"His true form hasn't appeared yet. He might be seriously injured, or he might be inside the altar, being held back by the last crucial point."
At this moment, the blood light on the altar was slowly fading.
Ning Zhuo secretly wondered: If the blood completely dissipated, would it mean that the ritual was completely completed?
"It's still the key question - how do we break through this tributary of the Forgotten River?"
Ning Zhuo immediately recalled the prophetic poem.
"A tide of ghosts surges, white paper threatens, a lone wild goose holds a candle and breaks through the sky's curtain. A guest star should shine on the north of Wenhu, the lights of all things will be bright and the catastrophe will be destroyed."
"There's no clue in this poem to help me break through the flow of the River of Oblivion."
"What should I do?"
Ning Zhuo fell into a daze, letting his thoughts wander.
"I am the destiny of the living world, the savior of Baizhi Immortal City, and the calamity of the Lord of Wangchuan Mansion! There must be a way out, it can't be a dead end!"
"Maybe if I have to cross the river, the answer is in my hands?"
Because he had just taken out the Guiji Candle from his storage belt and solved the problem of the turbid air barrier, Ning Zhuo began to use his spiritual sense again to scan his things.
Soon, his consciousness was fixed on the fetal breathing spirit boat.
"Can this boat take me across the river?" Ning Zhuo subconsciously touched the mechanical ring, but the latter became silent as death.
Ning Zhuo's thoughts turned to him: "What if I don't use any tools and just swim across the tributary of the Wangchuan River?"
He had this thought, but the mechanical ring remained as silent as death.
A trace of worry flashed in the depths of Ning Zhuo's eyes, and he stopped stroking.
His gaze, like his thoughts, was scattered, and various thoughts arose and fell in his mind.
His eyes swept across the ice coffin floating in the air, and a thought occurred to him: "This ice coffin is somewhat similar to the Guiji Qujing Candle."
"It sealed a magical scissors weapon. Before it came, the Earth Spirit was still attacking the ice coffin."
"Obviously, the ice coffin must have been left behind by a powerful individual. During the battle, it sealed a trump card of the Lord of Wangchuan Mansion!"
"This magical scissors weapon must be very important to the Lord of Wangchuan Prefecture. Otherwise, his opponent wouldn't treat it so carefully. And the Earth Spirit is constantly wearing away the ice coffin to retrieve the magic weapon."
Ning Zhuo didn't know that this ice coffin was actually also transformed from a candle, but its origin was greater. It was transformed from the Hanyuan Ice Coffin Candle of the Lord of Ghost Fire.
The young man's gaze was fixed on the ice coffin, and suddenly his body shook slightly.
"The candle body of the Quiet Path Candle is shaped like an ice coffin, and this one is the same."
"The similar appearance, could it be destiny's arrangement, a special hint for me?"
Ning Zhuo narrowed his eyes, probed his spiritual sense, and examined it carefully. Naturally, he thought of the next level: "This ice coffin is filled with cold air. It is of the Yin element, and even more so of the ice element. Can it freeze the tributaries of the Wangchuan River?"
“It’s actually very simple to verify this.”
Ning Zhuo reached into his storage belt.
The next moment, he stretched out his hand and threw out a large number of mechanical golden swallows.
Flocks of golden swallows quickly flew towards the ice coffin high in the sky.
Just as Ning Zhuo was thinking about how to pull the ice coffin and move it closer to the tributary of Wangchuan River, the Earthly Evil God immediately took action.
call!
The foul air whipped like a python, wiping out almost all of the golden swallows. Only two or three remained, and they flew to the ice coffin.
Ning Zhuo was surprised when he saw this scene.
The actions of the Evil God of the Earth, to some extent, verified his previous guess.
Of course, this could also be a deliberate design by the Earthly Evil God, or he could be too concerned about the magic weapon, the scissors.
No matter what, Ning Zhuo at least found a possible breakthrough.
He immediately took out more mechanical creations and manipulated them to disperse into stars in the sky, which sparsely rushed towards the ice coffin in the air again.
The attention of the Earthly Evil God was distracted once again.
In a short time, the bronze chariot was already covered with scars.
Although Ross had tried his best to protect it, the pressure brought to him by the Evil God was too great, so he had no time to take care of the chariot most of the time.
There are more than a dozen huge cracks, which look shocking.
"Old buddy, hold on a little longer!" Ross had a lot of feelings for this chariot. He knew that the chariot would be destroyed in this battle. While feeling sad, he also felt an unyielding will to fight.
Once the chariot is destroyed, it will be even more difficult for him to restrain the evil god on his own.
The only hope is that Ning Zhuo can find a breakthrough.
"Hmm?" Standing on the bronze chariot, Luo Si saw the Earthly Evil God attack again, but not against him, but to eliminate the Mechanical Golden Swallow.
"That ice coffin is the key!" Ross's heart suddenly shook as he realized this in an instant.
His gaze immediately turned to Ning Zhuo, and he secretly sighed: "As expected, he is worthy of being my wise master. He found the key to breaking the deadlock so quickly!"
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ross quickly cast a spell to heal himself.
He was alone against the Evil God of Turbidity and had almost no time to rest. Now that he has time, of course he has to race against time!
"Damn you little bastard!" The evil and filthy god roared, very angry.
Ning Zhuo was behind Luo Si, just continuously launching the mechanical golden swallow.
The cost of these mechanical golden swallows was almost negligible to the Lord of Wangchuan Mansion. Ning Zhuo's cultivation in the Foundation Establishment stage was like an ant at his feet.
But it was such an ant that used the extremely cheap mechanical golden swallow to restrain his Earthly Evil and Filthy Spirit at this very moment!
No wonder the evil and filthy god was so angry.
Ross felt relieved!
Not only did he treat himself properly, he also had time to take action and stabilize the condition of the bronze chariot.
Otherwise, based on the previous situation, the chariot's condition was very worrying. Even if it completely collapsed in the next moment, Ross felt it was quite reasonable.
Earth Element - Earthly evil and rock collapse.
The evil god stretched out his arms with his palms facing the sky.
His magical power leaked out wildly, releasing waves.
The fluctuations of mana spread rapidly, scattering to the powerful and turbid air barrier that enveloped the entire altar battlefield.
The turbid air in the earth's lungs seemed to be boiling, churning violently and quickly condensing to form huge rocks.
Rocks flew like rain, carrying the evil spirits of the earth, and shot towards the altar battlefield!
The flying rocks were full of murderous aura and ferocious power. They were of different sizes. The big ones were as big as dragons and elephants, while the small ones were at least as big as Ross's bronze chariot.
A large number of flying rocks hit the Jinyan machinery group, causing heavy casualties.
Ross was driving the bronze chariot, dodging everywhere in the rain of flying rocks, looking very embarrassed.
"If I get hit by this one, I'm afraid I'll die!" Ning Zhuo's forehead broke out in sweat, and he threw out the mechanism token in a hurry.
Mechanism——Cang Tie Han Jia!
The token transformed into a mechanical armor.
Golden swallows cut through the clouds, and Han armor covers the body!
The Cang Tie Han armor disintegrated, and the Five Elements Golden Elixir Wheel flew out and stuck to Ning Zhuo's chest. The spine attached to his back.
Twelve spirit mirrors simultaneously emitted silver light. Guided by the silver light, the arm and leg armor were precisely fitted.
The belt was like a green snake wrapped around it twice, emitting spiritual light and forming a light film that covered Ning Zhuo's entire body.
Click, click, click.
The helmet, breastplate, arm armor, leg armor, and the joints of the mechanical golden wings on the back are all spliced together and relatively contracted, fitting Ning Zhuo's body shape perfectly.
With the help of the mechanical armor, Ning Zhuo shot out like lightning, dodged a rockfall, and officially began mobile warfare.
Seeing this, Luo Si decisively ordered: "Qing Jiao's entire army retreats outside the turbid air barrier!"
Qing Chi gritted her teeth and hesitated. She saw Ning Zhuo rushing into Feiyan and was extremely worried. She wanted to fight alongside her lover!
Qing Yan, however, held Qing Chi's shoulders and dragged her away: "You are not good at flying, and you will be a burden if you go. Get out now."
"I won't!" Qing Chi refused, "If I have to die, I want to die with Xiao Ma!"
Qing Yan exclaimed, "You silly girl, we will definitely win! The odds are on our side!"
"Roth's military order is absolutely correct!"
"We must preserve our entire military and provide them with strength. This is what we should do most. The role we play is also crucial!!"
Qing Chi knew that his father was right, so he let himself be dragged away.
When she was about to completely exit the winding path, she still struggled out: "I will stay in the passage and watch Xiao Ma fight. If necessary, I will go to join the battle!"
Qing Yan hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Little girl, you must remember that you are the commander of our army. It will be more helpful for them if you stay alive to control the Qing Jiao Army and provide them with military strength!"
"Dad, this is for you!" Qing Chi took something out of his arms and threw it to Qing Yan.
Qing Yan took it and took a look, and found that it was a military camp for the military equipment festival.
Qing Yan and Jiao Ma's biological father then led the Qing Jiao army back to the Black Cloud battlefield where they had been stationed.
Qingyan opened up the sacrificial military camp to accommodate the Qingjiao army to station and recuperate.
With the protection of the military camp, the soldiers of the Qingjiao Army felt much better.
Jiao Ma's father left the military camp with a group of people, dispersed around, and actively cleaned up the battlefield.
They didn't have time before, but now they need to collect as much spoils as possible to fill the military branches and convert them into military supplies.
Now, the Qingjiao Army’s military supplies are in urgent need of attention.
With ample military supplies, they could do a lot more. Whether it was using the military tactics of [Money to Connect with Ghosts], [Money to Buy Life], or using it as an altar offering to attract ghosts and gods to help, all were possible.
Ning Zhuo also noticed the retreat of the Qingjiao army.
He breathed a sigh of relief and gave Ross an admiring look.
Luo Si's situation was even more dangerous than his. He and his car were always under the special attention of the Earthly Evil God, but the former was still commanding the battle and had a very clear insight into the situation.
"But if I do that, I won't be able to see the situation of the Qingjiao Army."
"If there's a chance later, I'll plant a thread of life on Qing Chi and the others!"
The military branch was not in Ning Zhuo's hands, which made him lose control of the Qingjiao Army.
"Next, I will withdraw military forces!" Ning Zhuo transmitted his spiritual consciousness to Luo Si.
Ross's answer was concise: "Got it."
Just as Qing Yan said, the military strength of the Qing Jiao Army is a crucial aid. Without the military leverage, Ning Zhuo has no way to pry into the Nascent Soul level combat power.
Only with such combat power could he meet the minimum standards and participate in this extremely dangerous war.
Ross also needs military support.
Without the support of the Qingjiao Army, he would probably have been seriously injured by now.
The sky was pitch black, and countless yellow-brown rockfalls were flying everywhere.
Ning Zhuo was wearing a dark iron armor, like a ray of golden light, constantly refracting forward in the air.
From the very beginning, he unlocked the safety restrictions of the Cang Tie Han Jia and burst out with extreme speed.
The flames pushed out by the Lihuo Tongue Formation were extremely violent, and every sudden change of direction made Cang Tie Hanjia groan.
A huge rock as big as an elephant came roaring down from the side.
Ning Zhuo mobilized his spiritual sense and threw out a dozen mechanical golden swallows, which flew directly towards it.
Bang, bang, bang...
With a series of explosions, the mechanical golden swallow and the huge rock were successfully destroyed together.
Countless rock fragments flew everywhere, some of which still hit Ning Zhuo.
The Cang Tie Han Jia looked like it had been hit repeatedly by an iron hammer, and fine cracks appeared on the earthen shield pattern of the Cang Tie Han Jia.
Ning Zhuo exerted all his strength to barely grasp the direction of flight. Cang Tie Han Jia was too fast, and the impact from the side could easily cause it to deviate from the direction.
In this rain of flying rocks, if you lose your direction and crash into a huge rock, your fate will be almost the same as that of the Golden Swallow.
"Faster, faster!" Ning Zhuo gritted his teeth.
Cang Tie Hanjia shuttled back and forth frantically between the huge rocks, always walking on the line between life and death.
The wind resistance is terrifying!
Although the White Tiger Breaking Army Formation was clearly working on the golden wings and cutting the air, Ning Zhuo still felt that many times, the entire mechanical armor seemed to have suddenly fallen into a sticky quagmire.
"No, it's these huge rocks that are causing trouble!"
Ning Zhuo immediately realized that some of the boulders were exerting repulsive force, while others were attracting external objects. The strong earthly evil emanating from the boulders was also exerting a negative influence on the mechanical armor.
The black iron breastplate turned red and emitted a burning smell.
Under the influence of the Earth Demon, the Earth Shield Formation gradually became ineffective, and the temperature inside the mechanical armor rose rapidly, like a steamer, causing Ning Zhuo to sweat violently, and the sweat soaked his clothes.
The Yin-Yang Guiliu Formation also began to experience problems. The cushioning air film it formed was as thin as a sheet of paper, and Ning Zhuo's body pressed against the armor, and with every sudden turn, he felt a sharp, dull pain.
