Chapter 331 The Immortal Sect Gathers
It is located at the junction of Yongzhou and Liangzhou, surrounded by mountains and forests on all sides.
The whistling energy stirred up a strong wind, which continued to spread outward with rolling waves, carrying a strong smell of blood and a roar, shaking everything in all directions.
In a river valley on the east side of Nanhua Mountain, blood dyed the entire river surface a strange red.
The disciples of Shanhai Pavilion and the noble families from Yongzhou tore the north apart and retreated continuously at the cost of heavy losses.
On the other side, at the southwestern border of Qingzhou, the group from the Wending Sect also changed their route to the east amidst the sniper fire. They tore through the only weak spot in the tide of corpses like black fog, and panted as they detoured in an arc to the northwest.
Then there is the Xuanyuan Immortal Palace and the Chen Immortal Clan.
Both of the two immortal sects are located on the west side of Qingyun Continent, and their directions of travel are close.
During the ambush, the two gangs broke through the encirclement in the nearby directions and used each other's strength to move towards the same place.
Then came Lingjian Mountain. The whistling sword energy was like the bright moonlight in the sky, galloping northward, then circling the west side, dragging numerous scars along the bank of the Wujiang River upstream.
They were all ambushed when Tianshu Academy was under siege, and several high-level elders who were regarded as the foundation fell.
As for the noble families that came with them, the smaller ones were directly destroyed, while the larger ones were torn to pieces.
This was a situation they had never anticipated before. They suddenly realized that their opponent this time was far from what they had imagined. The arrogant emotions in their hearts collapsed, but the solemnity on their faces never faded.
In the first encounter, they saw countless evil species with wandering combat power appearing before they even approached the ruins. They didn't dare to predict what would happen next.
"Where is Elder Qi?"
"Elder Qi has fallen..."
"These damn monsters..."
According to the original plan, the six major sects were supposed to surround the seven ruins from all directions, but at this moment they were scattered and had to take a detour in a hurry.
At this time, on the Lotus Mountain on the south side of the Great Wilderness Forest, a dark figure rolled a piece of letter into a scroll, tied it to the leg of a black bird, and let it fly away.
Just as the bird suddenly spread its wings and flew towards the depths of Liangzhou, dozens of figures came up the mountain.
Some of them were injured, but their injuries were not serious. They were standing on the ridge and looking around.
Tonight's ambush had been planned in advance, but some things were slightly beyond their expectations.
Simply put, the opponents came too quickly and too often.
From the moment they started planning this, all their movements were kept secret.
They killed all those who should be killed, and used the tide of zombies to clean up all traces before setting off. Logically, no one should know what they were going to do.
Especially since the Qingyun Immortal Sect has always been independent, and the aristocratic families are not in harmony with each other, and there has never been any talk of unity. The reaction should not be so quick and coordinated.
But no one expected that the six major immortal sects and the Qingyun family would all set out in a large-scale and planned manner, so that even though they killed countless people tonight, they still allowed a large number of people to escape.
This situation was beyond their expectations.
While thinking about it, everyone couldn't help but recall the angry shouts they heard when they were besieging the Chen family.
The Chu family, the Li family, the Zhuang family, the Du family, the Li family... You aristocratic families have lured the Immortal Sect to open the ruins, disrupting the way of heaven and bringing disaster to the world. You have already caused a great disaster, but you still refuse to surrender and may be treated leniently.
The list recited was not complete, but it was extremely accurate.
But the problem is that before the plan started, they had never even met each other, but they didn't expect that the Immortal Sect knew it so clearly.
There is no doubt that the Immortal Sect has already roughly understood what they have done and is also vaguely aware of what they are going to do.
But whether they were testing drugs or killing people, all their actions were carried out at the bottom of Qingyun.
With the Immortal Sect's condescending attitude, it was like being deaf and blind to the lower classes, and should not have been able to grasp the clear context so quickly.
"Just now, the Tianshuyuan group withdrew, and Bai Zhengze's eldest son seemed to be among them. It was quite surprising."
As the words fell, everyone's brows couldn't help but become solemn.
Not long after, another figure came up from the mountainside, accompanied by two jackdaws, and spoke in a deep voice.
"Chucheng has sent a message: a disciple wearing the uniform of the Heavenly Academy has been wandering around the city for several days for some unknown reason."
"There's also news from Fengzhou. Someone has ordered a thorough investigation of the missing immortal manors on the ground, and someone has even visited the mansions they left behind."
After the plan was implemented, a zombie tide broke out first, cleansing Jiuzhou, making communication extremely difficult and inefficient.
They only received news from many remote places tonight.
After hearing the report, the eyes of everyone on the mountain instantly became gloomy.
Tianshuyuan, Bai Rulong and Fengzhou, such pointers could easily make them realize who it was, and they began to vaguely understand where the six major immortal sects' understanding of them came from.
No one in this world cares about the lower class. No one cares what people do in Fengzhou, a remote and poor place, except for one person.
"boom!!!!"
A burst of thunderous fist sounds rang out quietly in the night.
When everyone turned around, they saw someone smashing the mountain wall on the right with his fist in the dark night, and his face was extremely angry.
He was one of the people who surrounded Tianshu Academy. When he came here with sword marks all over his body, he had already attracted the attention of the people around him.
There are not many people in the Divine Wandering Realm even in the Immortal Sect, so it is difficult for them to get hurt. However, the longest wound on his body looked obvious. The hard flesh on his wrist, which was almost cut off, was turned outward, and the evil spirit in it continued to surge outward.
Tianshuyuan is not an immortal sect like Lingjian Mountain that respects swordsmanship. There is only one person who wears the immortal robe of Tianshuyuan but uses the swordsmanship of Lingjian Mountain. At this moment, the figure coincides with what everyone had imagined before.
A disciple of the inner court of Tianshu Academy, he was born in the countryside as a private cultivator, without any family background, and was not favored by the Immortal Sect. He once entered the academy with Chu He and was regarded as a foil. Later, he entered the inner court to kill the Immortal Manor and reduce taxes, and was sent to the Snow Region to get the top spot on the Heavenly Dao Ranking.
Tonight, the sword cuts the soul.
After a brief silence, the ferocious figures on the mountain once again walked away.
In a blink of an eye, Liangzhou and Qingzhou were once again surrounded by a surging tide of corpses, roaring like venom, and chasing in the direction where the Immortal Sect had dispersed.
If you look from afar, you can see that the evil species that were originally wreaking havoc in various places in Qingyun are constantly gathering towards the Central Plains, just like a large black bowl slowly taking shape, swallowing up the sky and the earth.
At this time in Shengjing City, the gatekeeper who was guarding the formation on the city wall slowly opened his eyes, and then immediately rushed down the city wall with a knife.
Soon, everyone from the Sixianjian, King Chong, the noble families who stayed in the capital, and many disciples of the Tianshu Academy climbed up the city wall and looked out along the wall with solemn expressions.
The vast tide of corpses had already left Shengjing, and as if guided by something, they surged towards the south.
They knew very well that that direction was where Tianshu Academy and the major families were going.
In fact, their mentality was the same as that of the noble families who set out with Tian Academy when they just left the city. They felt that since the six major immortal sects had joined forces to fight, the villains who were disrupting the world would be punished.
But looking at the huge tide of corpses flowing against the current, they vaguely felt that this was like a trap to strangle them.
At this time, the Tianshuyuan group was traveling south and stopped briefly when passing the border of Liangzhou.
The disciples who still had strength left continued to eliminate the evil species from all directions, while the elders took medicine to heal their wounds.
It is true that the Dan Sect has closed the mountain, but all the major immortal sects and families have previously stored away medicines for injuries.
At this moment, using spiritual energy can stabilize the injury and accelerate the healing of the wound.
Shi Junhao, He Lingxiu and Chai Ze were also injured, but with the protection of various laws, they were not seriously injured, so the pain was relieved a lot after taking a few pills.
When the healing was over, He Lingxiu raised her head and looked at Yu Shiliu and Wang Gaocen who were standing under the tree opposite.
"Is Elder Wang okay?"
"His spiritual essence was nearly shattered. He is now seriously injured and unconscious, and his breath is very weak."
He Lingxiu frowned slightly: "Yu Shiliu... why is this happening?"
Shi Junhao lowered his voice and said, "Elder Yu has passed away. The three leaders just said that the team he led encountered disaster before reaching the border, and six of the elders died."
"It seems we underestimated each other and almost caused a disaster."
"Last night, it was just our first encounter, and a demon from the Divine Wandering Realm attacked. Palace Master Zuoqiu and Palace Master Chai also seemed to have experienced a battle yesterday. Only a warrior at the Perfection of the Upper Five Realms could fight them."
After Shi Junhao finished speaking, a chill rose in his heart.
While they were discussing this matter, other families were also whispering to each other.
When they came, what they wanted was to help the Xianzong to quell the disaster, plunder the inheritance of those families after the disaster, redistribute the Nine Provinces, and use this to rise in the world.
But after the tragic battle last night, countless young men in the family were killed and even the ancestor was seriously injured, which made them feel a little bit disappointed.
This is not a matter of participating in a fierce battle to divide the world. This is a fatal disaster.
But they have already penetrated deep into Liangzhou. In this place where the tide of corpses is constantly surging, it is extremely difficult to turn back even if they want to. Now they can only follow the Immortal Sect.
At the same time, Ji You, who had already recovered simply, was eating in the depths of the jungle.
It is indeed good to have a strong physique, but the energy consumption is too great. If he does not replenish it quickly, he will not be able to hold on for too long.
In a blink of an eye, all the dry food piled up like a mountain in front of him was cleared out by him alone. Cao Jinsong was stunned and could not help but move back, fearing that he would eat himself at the beginning.
After enjoying the meal, a burst of quick whistles suddenly sounded, and everyone who was resting immediately stood up.
This was not a safe place to begin with. The reason why Tianshuyuan chose to rest here was because after the battle last night, everyone had to take the time to regulate their breathing.
Therefore, those who did not plan to stay long quickly gathered together.
At this moment, the endless tide of corpses gathered into a larger wave, and began to come towards them, covering the sky and the sun.
In an instant, everyone became nervous and immediately gripped their weapons tightly and rushed towards the original route.
At this time, Ji You also stood up from the secluded woods. After restraining his breath, he held the sword again and called Cao Jinsong and others to head south.
"This time the zombie tide is stronger."
"Everyone is now prepared. We won't be surrounded in our weakened state like yesterday. But the most important thing now is to seize the opportunity to attack the ruins. The source of the disaster should be there. Time is running out."
Ji You responded with the sword in hand, and then the sword came down with a bang.
Although the ruins were lured open, they had been in the hands of the Immortal Sect before and were strictly guarded, with no outsiders allowed to enter.
It was not until the tide of corpses suddenly surged that the Immortal Sect lost control of the ruins.
This means that the Chu family, the Du family and others have not been in the ruins for long, and no matter what they want to do, it will take time.
Judging from the current movement of the zombie tide, they must be preventing the Immortal Sect from approaching the ruins.
This is a game of racing against time, and time is too precious to be wasted.
Suddenly, there was a sharp scream.
The evil creature with powerful energy rushed over, with murderous aura surging all over his body. At first glance, he was a Deadpool like Bu Jia.
Ji You swung his sword suddenly, chopped off half of one of the corpses' heads, and then punched the other one into the surging tide of corpses.
"Why are there more and more evil species coming to our side?"
"Because there are more and more people here..."
Ban Yangshu answered Cao Jinsong's question while swinging his sword, causing him and Ji You to look back.
Behind them, countless disciples of Tianshu Academy were subconsciously gathering here, and even some aristocratic families were getting closer and closer to them, following closely behind.
The strong popularity constantly teased those evil species, causing the wave to grow bigger and bigger.
Cao Jinsong's mouth was twisted behind his ears: "These people are really good at changing with the times!"
Ban Yangshu fought hard to kill the evil creature in front of him: "It must be Junior Brother Ji's sword strike yesterday, which let them know where to stay alive."
Ji You was at the front at this time, and saw Lu Hanyan rushing a few steps faster, while Lu Qingqiu and Wen Zhengxin behind her were also eager to try. He stretched out his hand to pull the girl back, and a magnificent sword energy slashed forward.
The sword technique did not hold back at this moment, in order to save every second.
Under the strong sword energy, a road covered with corpses was cut open, and the surrounding area was also affected.
Layer upon layer, the tide of corpses that were pulling and stepping on each other collapsed towards the middle in an instant, and their attempt to flood all directions was interrupted immediately.
On the west side, Chai Ze, who found an opening, suddenly made a spell, and the strong fairy light was like lightning falling from the sky, which opened up the way forward.
The He family and the Zuoqiu family were on the east side, the other families were on the south side, and in the middle were the elders whose injuries had just been relieved and the three heads, followed by many disciples from the courtyard. The huge group took this opportunity to cross the tide of zombies.
After taking a short breath, they kept breathing in and out, and at the same time couldn't help but look towards the east.
They saw that endless sword energy was still rising among the whistling evil species, and it was slashing down countless waves of corpses, making their eyelids twitch wildly.
"He's just a monster..."
He Lingxiu turned to look at the emotionally moved Qin: "Didn't you know about this yesterday?"
Manager Qin turned and looked at her: "I'm not talking about combat power, I'm talking about physical body."
"?"
"No, to be more precise, it should be his injury."
After the words fell, the three hall masters' disciples were slightly startled, and immediately looked at Ji You again with sudden realization.
At the same time, the heads of other noble families were also stunned, staring at the figure with endless sword energy.
If I remember correctly, after the battle last night, Ji You was seriously injured and could no longer hold on. He was pulled onto the flying sword by the three masters and fell into a coma.
But at this moment, he didn't look injured at all, and his whole body was like a roaring beast.
When he swung the sword, his arms would be tense and his wrists would be exposed from his sleeves. However, the wrists that were clearly torn yesterday had now healed to the point where only blood scabs remained.
Some elders of Tianshu Academy have also been trying to comprehend the so-called art of life, and their healing speed is amazing, but it is far from being as terrifying as this.
In fact, the three masters were shocked much earlier than them. After all, they had carried Ji You all the way here on their flying swords. Not long after leaving the canyon, they had discovered that the wounds on Ji You's body were healing rapidly.
What was equally shocking was not only the speed at which Ji You's body healed, but also the amount of his spiritual energy...
After setting out from Shengjing, Ji You passed through the gaps in the evil tide in order to save energy and did not travel with them.
Until this moment, in order to prevent further ambush, they could only gather closely together, and found that although Ji You had swung his sword fiercely many times, the aura around him was still at its peak.
"Don't change direction easily. Continue to follow the route."
"These monsters must be defeated one by one. Don't be timid and go astray."
"Other immortal sects are also circling here. We must try to reunite with them as soon as possible."
More than a thousand people from Lingjian Mountain moved at a very fast speed, bringing with them several aristocratic families from Lingzhou, and arrived at a group of mountains.
This place is the Wanshi Mountains in the southwest of Liangzhou. The layers of peaks look vast and boundless.
The Wendao Sect, Shanhai Pavilion and the Chen Immortal Clan had already met here on their way around, and were now fighting against the roaring tide of zombies all over the mountain.
The tide of zombies followed them, and they were so dense that they had already flooded the valley between the mountains, stretching as far as the eye could see.
Ding Yao and Zhuo Wanqiu followed behind Yan Shujing, standing side by side with Gongshu Chou and others. The swords in their hands kept vibrating, and the fierce sword skills were like a rushing river, constantly tearing apart the dense tide of corpses.
They suffered a lot of losses along the way.
Many disciples died in Tianjian Peak and Xuanjian Peak, and several elders also fell.
Fortunately, their Lingjian Mountain swordsmanship is the most powerful killing technique in the world, so they arrived here, but their expressions did not relax because of this.
Because at the top of the cliff, several terrifying auras appeared with a majestic murderous aura. The condensed evil aura was like a surging black fog, which made people tense up in an instant.
Naturally, they could clearly sense the aura of those who surrounded and attacked them yesterday.
