The Wind Ghost in the Wind Plains was showing signs of a large-scale attack, so the entire Wind Suppressing City was under martial law.
Xiao Chen wasn't familiar with the Wind Ghost. Fortunately, he had Xiao Sheng by his side. According to his explanation, Xiao Chen found out that the Wind Ghost was a special creature in the Wind Plains.
It was similar to a wild beast. It had low intelligence and was even inferior to a monster. However, it was extremely ferocious. Moreover, the Wind Ghost wasn't afraid of the strong winds in the Wind Plains. It could be said that the Wind Plains was a land of death for humans, but it was the best home for the Wind Ghost.
No one knew when the Wind Ghost appeared. It seemed that the Wind Ghost had already existed in the Wind Plains.
It was also because of the existence of the Wind Ghost in the Wind Plains that the Ancient Sacred Sect built the Wind Suppressing City here. The purpose was to guard against the Wind Ghost's attacks.
Every once in a while, the Wind Ghost would invade human territory. Their goal was very simple, and that was to devour humans.
They loved human flesh and blood very much. In addition, they didn't have high intelligence. Therefore, the Wind Ghost could be said to be acting on instinct. In this way, it also created their ferocious nature.
After telling Xiao Chen about the Wind Ghost in detail, after hearing Xiao Sheng's explanation, Xiao Chen had no choice but to return to the city.
Since there were signs that the Wind Ghost was about to launch a large-scale attack, Xiao Chen obviously couldn't leave the city at this time. Not to mention that the entire Zhenshan City was under martial law, even if it wasn't, Xiao Chen wouldn't leave the city rashly.
One had to know that if one encountered the Wind Ghost in the wild, there was no chance of survival. Only by relying on the city could one have a chance of survival.
Xiao Chen helplessly returned to Heavy City and found a restaurant. He drank while listening to the people around him talk about the Wind Ghost.
Listening to the discussions of the surrounding people, Xiao Chen's understanding of the Wind Ghost slowly increased. Speaking of which, his luck was pretty good. He actually encountered a Wind Ghost as soon as he arrived in Wind Suppression City. According to the discussions of the surrounding people, the most recent Wind Ghost attack seemed to be twenty years ago.
Of course, this was referring to large-scale Wind Ghost attacks. Small-scale Wind Ghost attacks naturally occurred from time to time, but they were harmless. The only thing that Suppressing Wind City was afraid of was large-scale Wind Ghost attacks.
Every time a large-scale Wind Ghost attack broke out, it would be a tough battle for Suppressing Wind City. At that time, the number of Wind Ghosts would not be in the tens of thousands, but in the hundreds of thousands, millions, or even millions of Wind Ghosts. It was not impossible.
It was said that the largest Wind Ghost attack in history was over ten million Wind Ghosts. At that time, all the Holy Sons of the Ancient Sacred Sect were mobilized, and even three Saint Venerable Elders were sent out. The rest of the Deacons and disciples were even more numerous. Only then were they able to successfully withstand that attack.
"Alas, I hope this attack is not too terrifying. Otherwise, Mountain Suppression City will face another bloody battle." One of the four people sitting next to Xiao Chen sighed and said.
Hearing this, another person also spoke out, "Yes, if the scale of this Wind Ghost attack is too large, I'm afraid the City Lord Mansion will have to issue the Ancient Sacred Order again."
The Ancient Sacred Order was an order issued by the Ancient Sacred Sect during special times. Once it was issued, all the cultivators in the Ancient Sacred Sect must obey the order. Otherwise, they would be sentenced to death.
Only during special times would the Ancient Sacred Order be issued. The Ancient Sacred Order was divided into three levels, from low to high. A Level 1 Ancient Sacred Order only needed one Saint to sign it. A Level 2 Ancient Sacred Order required more than half of the Saints in the Ancient Sacred Sect to sign it. As for the highest level, a Level 3 Ancient Sacred Order, it required all the Saints in the Ancient Sacred Sect to sign it.
According to the level, it corresponded to the urgency of the situation. In any case, a Level 3 Ancient Sacred Order had never appeared since the establishment of the Ancient Sacred Sect. This was because once a Level 3 Ancient Sacred Order was issued, it represented a moment of life and death.
Level 3 and Level 2 Ancient Sacred Order were very rare. However, a Level 1 Ancient Sacred Order could only be issued a few times. Especially in Zhenshan City. Every time a Wind Ghost attack of more than a million people broke out, the City Lord Mansion of Zhenshan City would issue a Level 1 Ancient Sacred Order, ordering all the experts in the city to work together to deal with the Wind Ghost attack.
There was no other way. The City Lord Mansion of Zhenshan City had too many experts. Once they faced a large-scale Wind Ghost attack, it was obviously not enough. Therefore, they could only rely on the cultivators in the city.
They prayed that the Wind Ghost attack this time would not be too terrifying. However, after hearing the words of these two, another person sitting together with them said with a smile.
"I say, why are you guys so cowardly? The invasion of the Wind Fiend is a great opportunity for us. You should know that the Wind Fiend has quite a number of good items on him. When the time comes, we can sell them to the Ancient Saint Sect for a sum of spirit stones!"
Regarding the upcoming Wind Ghost attack, some people were excited, while some were afraid. Some people felt that the Wind Ghost attack was a good opportunity to make a fortune.
After all, every time the Zhenshan City resisted the Wind Ghost attack, the Ancient Sacred Sect would reward the cultivators according to their merits. Those who fought bravely would receive a lot of rewards. At the same time, the corpse of the Wind Ghost you killed could be sold to the Ancient Sacred Sect.
In this way, after a Wind Ghost attack, the powerful cultivators would receive a great harvest.
Xiao Chen drank alone in the tavern and listened to the discussions of the people around him. Needless to say, Xiao Chen had indeed heard a lot of useful information from them.
The first was the Wind Ghost, and the second was the Ancient Sacred Token. He had never heard of the Ancient Sacred Token before, but after listening to the discussions of the people around him, Xiao Chen gradually understood.
"It seems that we can only wait until the Wind Ghost attack ends before we can enter the Wind Plain. However, I don't know what the scale of the Wind Ghost attack will be. However, since the City Lord Mansion has ordered the whole city to be on alert, it seems that the scale of this attack will not be small." After drinking a mouthful of wine, Xiao Chen secretly thought to himself.
If it was only a small scale Wind Ghost attack, the City Lord Mansion would obviously not be on alert.
He could only wait and see in the city. However, the Wind Ghost attack this time was not all bad news for Xiao Chen. This was because according to past experience, after every Wind Ghost attack, the Wind Plain would enter a short period of peace.
At that time, the Wind Ghost in the Wind Plain would be very obedient. In this way, entering the Wind Plain during that period of time would naturally be much less dangerous than usual.
In this way, when Xiao Chen entered the Wind Plain at that time, he would not have to worry too much about the Wind Ghost attack.
Just as Xiao Chen was secretly thinking about his decision, the City Lord Mansion of the Zhenshan City was shrouded in a tense atmosphere. In the hall of the City Lord Mansion, more than ten people were sitting together. Everyone's expression was not very good.
