Chapter 111 The Battle of Luoxia Mountain Begins
Chapter 111 The Battle of Luoxia Mountain Begins
Xue Lan does have a way to leave the Xuanhuang Sect, but she doesn't plan to take Lin Su with her.
The girl did not answer directly, but instead fished a piece of material out of the smelting furnace.
Lin Su didn't say anything, but picked up a hammer and tapped the piece of material.
When the Xuan Yun Iron clashed with the hammer, sparks flew everywhere, like a flurry of fiery butterflies.
As they danced gracefully, they soared over thousands of miles and landed on the battle flag of Luoxia Mountain.
A girl in black flew down from the city wall, and with a wave of her hand, pulled the battle flag with half of its pole broken from the blood-soaked mud on the battlefield, and carried it on her shoulder.
Her voice was somewhat hoarse, like the sound of a dull knife scraping.
"Victory Feather Army, prepare for battle!"
"Obey the order!"
The response came from behind: the soldiers of the Shengyu Army, clad in armor, their voices resounding through the sky, echoing with the armor they wore, and lingering for a long time.
An overwhelming killing intent emanated from behind her. Ji Jinjin twirled the spear in her hand halfway around, pointing it directly at the pitch-black demonic tide at the edge of the great formation.
A streak of crimson lightning flashed across the corner of the girl's phoenix eyes, and the mark between her brows slowly appeared.
"We will defend the sunset to the death, even if it means dying a thousand deaths!"
After speaking, the girl led tens of thousands of Shengyu soldiers and charged towards the demonic tide in front of her.
On the city tower of Luoxia Mountain, Yin Shishi, dressed in green, had a cold look in her eyes. With a wave of her hand, streaks of talisman light scattered in all directions, forming a barrier of magical light in front of the soldiers in front of her.
A talisman flew from within Mount Luoxia. Yin Shishi caught it with her hand and heard Cui Wu's voice as she unfolded it.
"Senior Sister Yin, the great formation outside Fuyang City has been fully set up. Senior brothers and sisters, please don't worry. The latest batch of Demon-Slaying Crossbows from the War Puppet Mansion has also been transported to the front line."
Yin Shishi smiled faintly.
Xue Lan is indeed unreliable, but this junior sister she picked up from Jiyue Mountain is smooth, meticulous and careful in her work, and moves among immortals, demons, gods and humans, which really makes Yin Shishi look at her with new eyes.
A purple demonic light flew from above the demonic tide not far away, carrying the pressure of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator as it flew towards the city tower.
Just as the demonic light was about to crash into the city wall, a sharp shout came from the sky: "You beast!"
In an instant, the entire Luoxia Mountain trembled, and the originally gentle peaks began to rise, increasing in height by tens of meters. It transformed into a natural barrier, keeping the demons out.
The menacing demonic light abruptly stopped, transforming into a bewitching woman. Her voice was filled with disbelief: "Impossible! The Mountain God of Luoxia Mountain should have..."
Before she could finish speaking, she saw the earth elemental power surrounding Mount Luoxia gather and transform into a gigantic, earth-yellow dragon before her. At the dragon's head stood an old man dressed in brown robes.
If Cui Wu were here, she would definitely recognize this old man as the Chu Mountain God she had met in the Xuanhuang Secret Realm when she first arrived at the Xuanhuang Sect.
"Impossible, why is there no news?" The demon seemed a little flustered and quickly fled as a streak of purple demonic light.
"Come and go as you please? What do you take this Luoxia Mountain for?" Chu Shanshen sneered, and a vine staff appeared in his hand.
The staff slammed down on the ground in front of him, and the surrounding mountains began to ripple like water. Several stone pillars suddenly appeared in the direction where the demonic light had fled, transforming into several large snakes in the air, opening their mouths to bite at the demon in front of them.
Within this Sunset Mountain, every blade of grass and every tree harbors deadly intent. The Nascent Soul stage demon was quickly overwhelmed and swallowed whole by the earth dragon behind Chu Shanshen.
Outside the Thunder Kui Formation, in the desolate region.
Ji Gu looked at the beautiful woman who had been eaten by the earth dragon and let out a cold laugh: "I didn't expect the human race to have such a backup plan. Every mountain god of Luoxia Mountain has at least the strength of the late Nascent Soul stage."
A dark glint flashed in the young man's eyes as he beckoned to a demon behind him: "Suge."
A demon named Suge stepped forward, and Ji Gu whispered a few words in his ear.
"Your Highness, is this... really necessary?"
"Do as I say. The mountain god of Luoxia Mountain is here, and we can't get through for a while."
Su Ge accepted the order and left. In a corner not far away, Ji Yan looked at her third brother, her beautiful eyes bright.
He had long known that Ji Gu possessed a secret technique that could use a treasure to directly tear open a spacetime rift leading to the human race, but he had never witnessed it.
The young man's eyes were dull.
If that thing could be used by me...
Following Ji Gu's instructions, Su Ge came to the depths of the desolate region and, through layers of blockades, arrived at a cave hundreds of meters underground.
With Ji Gu's token embedded in the heavy stone door in front of him, Su Ge watched as the door slowly opened.
Behind the stone door was a gigantic figure heavily bound by chains, writhing in the darkness.
One by one, the torches around them lit up, and Sug saw a blood-red eye.
To be precise, it was a deep-set eye socket dripping with blood. The eyeball inside was long gone.
This was a huge white wolf with silvery-white fur. It had been dismembered into eight pieces, the fragments of its body barely held together by chains, making it look extremely gruesome.
As if sensing someone approaching, the white wolf's head twitched slightly, seemingly listening for sounds.
Suggesting his fear, Suger pressed a hidden button.
The sound of chains rattling filled the air, and the white wolf before him let out a hoarse howl, sounding utterly miserable. Its head was forcibly ripped from its body by the chains and presented to Suger.
Sog put away the enormous head and left the cave.
One by one, the torches around us went out, and the cave returned to a deathly silence.
Inside the Xuanhuang Cave, Xue Lan, who was polishing the puppet arm for Lin Su, suddenly swayed and almost fell into the smelting furnace.
Xue Tong asked with some concern, "What's wrong? Has your senior uncle really poisoned you to the point of madness?"
Xue Lan covered half of her face, revealing only one eye. The girl's gaze was cold, like a bottomless abyss.
"my body!"
【what? 】
"And my soul!"
[Your soul?]
"When all things in the world die, their spirits scatter to the heavens and earth, and their souls return to the underworld." Xue Lan's voice was icy: "My soul has been reborn after flowing through the river of time for a thousand years. I never expected that not only is my body unharmed, but my spirit has also not dissipated into the world. No wonder the demons were able to use my body to tear open the rift."
The girl's thoughts raced.
What kind of deal did I make with the Thousand Realms of Ghosts in my past life that I am now not only in the hands of the demons, but also with my soul?
It seems I should find an opportunity to investigate this properly when I have time.
The biggest problem now is that there is no connection between Xue Lan and her body.
If only someone connected to her by karma could examine her body. Even the slightest connection would allow Xue Lan to find him.
