Seeing this scene from afar, Chen Jing felt a chill run through his body, his forehead became icy, his hair stood on end, his throat went dry, and he was overwhelmed by terrible fear.
What kind of terrifying monster is this?!
Fortunately, he knew perfectly well that this was Ash City, and the scene before him was merely a picture shared with him by Bai Yueyi.
"What kind of monster is this?"
Chen Jing's voice trembled so much that it sounded unlike his own.
“Judging from historical records, he is Huang Yuanlong.” Bai Yueyi’s voice was calm and even. “I’ve looked into the history…”
Next, another scene appears, showing Lu Gang and Huang Yuanlong talking on the big ship.
"Huang Yuanlong betrayed Mei Yixin, telling the black hand Lu Gang that Mei Yixin had broken through to the Qi Realm and thus obtained a Qi Realm Spirit Pill of Battle Qi."
"However, this Qi Realm Spirit Pill of Battle Qi came from the hands of the mastermind behind the scenes. Besides a Heavenly Cultivator of the Extreme Realm, the mastermind behind the scenes is also a Life Cultivator of the Bright Realm."
“That cultivator tampered with the elixir, adding blood to it.”
"Whether Huang Yuanlong truly betrayed the Guardian but was deceived by the Guardian's caution and gave the wrong information, or whether Huang Yuanlong was loyal to the Guardian and intended to mislead Lu Gang from the beginning, and Ling Yuxuan, who monitored Ash City through the wind and rain and saw that Mei Yixin had reached the Ming Realm, would believe it was the latter. He caused the time bomb that the Fate Cultivator left in Huang Yuanlong to explode, and that's how Huang Yuanlong became."
"Don't take elixirs indiscriminately; that's basic common sense."
As Chen Jing listened to these words, he recalled what Mo Wujiang had once said.
The human body is a great elixir, a great medicine.
The cultivation of destiny is truly bizarre and terrifying!
Through the screen, the battle beneath the large ship quickly came to an end.
No matter how Huang Yuanlong transforms into a lump of flesh and blood, he is still essentially just a Qi Realm cultivator, and a Qi Realm cultivator in extremely poor condition at that. The experts' side has two Qi Realm cultivators and three Dan Realm cultivators.
Miss Panya took out various strange bombs and hidden weapons from her pocket, and either threw them or activated them.
A series of explosions erupted on her flesh and blood, and Miss Panya quickly retreated to avoid being caught in the blast.
After a round of bombardment, the lump of flesh and blood seemed unaffected; its momentum had withstood Miss Panya's attack.
The bloody, fleshy mass lunged at the crowd outside the door.
He lunged at the door, only to find nothing.
Through the vision provided by Bai Yueyi, Chen Jing saw a semi-transparent image of Pan Ya at the doorway.
"Luo You used illusion magic to mislead the flesh and blood mud, causing its attack to miss?" A conclusion popped into Chen Jing's mind.
The lump of flesh and blood seemed unaware of this, and launched a fierce attack on the air. Its flesh and blood coalesced into fists, claws, a long neck with teeth, and so on, which it then hurled wildly at the air.
A figure in black robes walked out from behind. Chen Jing had seen this figure before when he met Li Si again in the ship area. At that time, he could smell a fragrance coming from the figure in black robes.
"Are these zombies controlled by Li Si?" Chen Jing wondered to himself. "But why close combat? Wouldn't ranged attacks be better at this moment?"
The man in black robes lifted his robe, revealing a head made of silver alloy.
Its head was smooth and humanoid, but it only had eyes made of glass lenses, no nose, and a mouth like a duck's bill.
He opened his beak and let out a whoosh.
A burst of flame suddenly erupted, scorching the blood and flesh in front of him.
The lump of flesh and blood finally realized something was wrong and instinctively unleashed a powerful aura that could dispel the illusion, continuing to rush outwards into the flames.
When he rushed to the man in black robes, the man in black robes stopped breathing fire and raised his fists.
The black-robed man's right hand was not a human hand, but a battle sword.
At the same time, the experts and Li Si also stepped forward to join the black-robed man in attacking the bloody mud.
The expert's longsword ignited, and Li Si raised the white bone hammer.
boom!
Finally, the blood and flesh clump did not linger for long before its momentum was broken.
call!
The black-robed man opened his duck-like beak again, spewing out flames that scorched the blood and flesh mass.
The battle is over.
After searching through the blood and gore, the experts found a elixir emitting a red mist. They then continued forward, carefully crossing the blood and gore.
Once inside, everyone fell silent at the sight before them.
Everyone imprisoned here, along with several of Lu Gang's trusted sailors who were guarding the place, were torn apart by Huang Yuanlong and reduced to pure flesh and blood.
The expert glanced at the altar in the room, then slashed it with a knife, destroying it.
"What exactly happened?" He Lili asked, her face pale as she looked at the scene before her.
"He was attacked by the Facebreakers," the expert said coldly. "They are the big shots behind Lu Gang, the mastermind behind the Black Hand."
"The Face-Stealer? Isn't that the name of a Mingjing cultivator?" Pan Ya asked. "Isn't the big shot behind Lu Gang a feng shui master?"
"It could be two people, or it could be one person who used a magical artifact," the expert said.
"Thanks to your help, the blood sacrifice here has finally been destroyed. Now we only need to hold the Song River and wait for reinforcements from the outside world. Senior Jian Changkong has been sent by New Song City. Once he arrives, all the enemies who have been stirring up trouble in Ash City will have no choice but to flee in terror."
"However, the enemy may not give up. There is not enough time for them to choose a new location for the blood sacrifice. I think you all understand that the altar for the blood sacrifice is one thing, but the key is the layout of the flow of spiritual energy and blood energy. Redesigning it will take several days, which is enough time for us to wait for reinforcements. Therefore, we must guard against the enemy's renewed attack and take back the ship."
The expert looked around at everyone and said, "Now, call all the sailors on the big ship and purge Lu Gang's most trusted members first."
How ruthless… Chen Jing thought to himself, first using the threat of relying on others to warn the core members of the Black Hand gang around him that they had already boarded the pirate ship, then informing them that New Song City had sent strong reinforcements, using this as a threat, and finally instructing them to clean up Lu Gang’s confidants and completely break with Black Hand Lu Gang.
If this series of operations is successfully completed, the expert will have turned a large portion of the Black Hand gang members against him, and may even be able to further control the power of the sailors in the ship area!
"Those who act justly will find many supporters, while those who act unjustly will find few." Bai Yueyi explained from the side, "If it weren't for such a perverse event as the blood sacrifice, and the bloody scene of Huang Yuanlong turning into a monster, your master would never have been able to turn the members of the Black Hand gang against him. But now, he has the moral high ground, and Huang Yuanlong's tragic state serves as a warning to those core members of the Black Hand gang. It's only natural that he can turn them against him."
"In this way, with the firepower of the large ship and so many people in the ship area, the mastermind can only mobilize two Ming Realm cultivators. One of them also has to preside over the blood sacrifice in Dr. Mei Anming's hospital. Only the mastermind Lu Gang is left, powerless to change the situation!" Chen Jing suddenly realized: "So, this is the key to victory or defeat."
"But unfortunately, this decisive move was meaningless." Bai Yueyi shook her head.
