Almost at the same instant this voice was heard, an explosion could be heard and a vast expanse of white frost covered the entire plaza outside the Universal Hall.
…
At the same time, almost all the experts in Zhen Xing had gathered at the Star Lord Residence of the Piercing Wind City. The Star Lord Residence of the Piercing Wind City was actually the original Castellan Residence. However, after some simple modifications, it became the residence of the Star Lord, Wu Lingzhi. This also made it convenient for the Star Lord to gather everyone to discuss how to defend against the invasion of the foreign cultivators.
In reality, Wu Lingzhi had been racking his brains for the defence of Zhen Xing. Other than thinking of ways to stop the foreign cultivators from constructing the transfer array, he also made the Piercing Wind City look like an iron wall. Over the years, the defensive array of the Piercing Wind City continued to strengthen and change, eventually forming a new defensive fort.
Using Wu Lingzhi's words, even if the foreign invaders were to use the transfer array gate to teleport outside of the Piercing Wind City, the Piercing Wind City would still have to stop them. Because of this, he did not care about the price and installed countless of space sealing arrays. Any cultivator that wanted to enter Zhen Xing from the Universal Hall's plaza would have to pass through the Piercing Wind City because it was impossible to fly here.
In other words, even if Chi Tong came back to life, he might not be able to do better than Wu Lingzhi in such a situation.
However, the reason why so many experts were here today was not to discuss with Wu Lingzhi about the foreign invaders, but because Wu Lingzhi was killed.
Wu Lingzhi died with a grievance as he sat on a seat at the bottom of the assembly hall. There was a wound on his forehead and the blood around the wound had already coagulated.
Besides this, there were no other wounds on Wu Lingzhi's body. This meant that Wu Lingzhi did not even fight with his opponent and was killed in the Star Lord Residence.
"Who exactly is it? Which traitor is it? I don't believe that a foreign invader could enter the Star Lord Residence! " Yan Ze roared loudly as his entire body was filled with killing intent. He was like a sharp sword that had its sheath broken and was ready to fight with his life.
There was a moment of silence because everyone knew that this was definitely not done by a foreign invader. If a foreign invader came, Wu Lingzhi would definitely send out a warning at the first instance and be on full alert. It was impossible for him to be killed so easily on his seat without any resistance.
One must know that Wu Lingzhi was a Worldly Immortal Stage Level 7 expert. Even if the strongest expert of the foreign races came, he wouldn't be completely helpless.
Star Sea Palace's Palace Master Su Xuan's eyes were red as she clenched her fists tightly. After Yan Ze's roar subsided, her gaze swept across the crowd before she coldly said, "Star Lord Wu was assassinated by an acquaintance. From the fact that he did not resist and even had a look of disbelief in his eyes, I can tell that this person's status is not low. Furthermore, he could easily enter and exit the Star Lord's Mansion …"
Even if they weren't the ones who killed Wu Lingzhi, when Su Xuan's gaze swept across the crowd, many of the experts standing here felt a chill down their spines.
Su Xuan was not a simple person. Not only was she the Palace Master of the Star Sea Palace, she also commanded the Star Sea Army. In theory, the Northern Star Army was the strongest of Zhen Mo's ten armies. In reality, after the fall of the Star Lord, the Northern Star Army was split into two. Some of them were Wu Lingzhi's men, while the rest were from the Yan Clan.
With this separation, the true combat power of the Northern Star Army was now inferior to that of the Star Navy. The Star Sea Army had truly become the strongest army. Moreover, Su Xuan was an expert in Worldly Immortal Stage Level 6. Who would be tired of living and be willing to go against Su Xuan?
Xu Chihuang, who was still in Worldly Immortal Stage Level 1, was trembling with anger. In just a few short years, Zhen Xing had lost two Star Lords. The crucial point was that these two Star Lords had fallen in an extremely sullen manner. Star Lord Chi Tong had fallen because of the internal strife in the Star King Mountain. Wu Lingzhi was even assassinated by an acquaintance in the Star Lord's Mansion, which was the first line of defense for Zhen Xing.
The pity was that Xu Chihuang's cultivation was simply too low. Even if he suspected someone here, he couldn't speak his mind at this moment. Worldly Immortal Stage Level 1 might seem very strong, but in a place like this, it was really nothing. Moreover, which expert here didn't have the support of a large army of cultivators?
"Hall Master Xia, who do you think killed Star Lord Wu?" Su Xuan's gaze landed on Star Wars Hall Master Xia Dandao. She suspected that Wu Lingzhi's death had something to do with Xia Dandao. If it wasn't Xia Dandao, then it would be Yan Pingzhi. It was just that Yan Pingzhi wasn't here at this moment.
Xia Dandao frowned slightly. Just as he was about to speak, the alarm in the Star Lord's Mansion suddenly rang. Following which, a few panic-stricken faces appeared on the huge screen.
"The foreign cultivators have already invaded Zhen Xing. They are currently attacking the Piercing Wind City. The Piercing Wind City is in imminent danger, send reinforcements as soon as possible …" The cultivator's voice on the screen was trembling. Evidently, he was shocked by the scene at the scene.
Everyone was dumbfounded. This was simply too much of a coincidence. Wu Lingzhi had just been assassinated and the foreign cultivators' transfer array was already set up. They had even attacked the Piercing Wind City. Even an idiot would know that this wasn't a coincidence.
Xia Dandao suddenly said in a clear voice, "Now, there are only two paths. One is for us to immediately rush to the Piercing Wind City and fight with the invading foreign cultivators. Even if we can't defend the Piercing Wind City, we must not let a single worm of the foreign cultivators enter the Zhen Mo Continent. The second path is to immediately send people to negotiate with the foreign cultivators. We will strive for an acceptable range for the foreign cultivators to stop their invasion. "
Xia Dandao's words stunned all the cultivators at the scene. What did he mean? There was actually such a huge difference between the two paths?
The first was to prevent them from risking their lives to protect Zhen Xing. The second was obviously for everyone to conserve their strength and give up some land to pay reparations.
But could these foreign cultivators be solved by giving up land and reparations? This was clearly not a solution. Almost everyone was sure that no matter how many things Zhen Xing took out, the other party would definitely give a false agreement. Once they entered the Piercing Wind City, they would definitely go back on their words.
These foreign cultivators didn't even have any principles to speak of.
"I believe that Hall Master Xia's first path is simply unrealistic. Once the foreign cultivators invade, there would definitely be an endless stream of troops entering Zhen Mo Star. It would simply be a dream for our Zhen Mo Star to defend against the foreign cultivators …" A man with a long beard and a square face stood out to say.
However, before this man could finish speaking, Su Xuan directly interrupted him, "Enough. Now, everyone will follow me to the Piercing Wind City to defend against the foreign cultivators. We can talk about other things later. Bi Yu, immediately protect Star Lord Wu's body. Don't let anyone touch him. "
"Yes!" A Worldly Immortal Stage Level 1 woman stood out to respond. Su Xuan was already the first to rush out.
The rest of the people also followed suit. Xia Dandao's face was extremely ugly but since everyone had already rushed out, he naturally couldn't stay here.
…
At the periphery of the Piercing Wind City's defensive array, a group of Zhen Xing experts stared blankly at the transfer array outside the Piercing Wind City. That place seemed to have collapsed as thousands of people landed on Zhen Xing at every moment.
At this instant, there were already tens of thousands of people gathered outside the Piercing Wind City. Everyone recognised the person leading the group, Bao Lie. He was already at the peak of Class 8 and was just a step away from entering the ranks of Class 9 demonic beasts.
Moreover, the person standing by Bao Lie's side was an Earthly Immortal Realm expert. This expert didn't speak much so the cultivators in Zhen Xing didn't even know his name. They only knew that he was an expert from Gu Nuo Star Tribe. Star King Mountain's Star Lord Chi Tong was assassinated by this person.
"It's not that our Zhen Xing doesn't have any Earthly Immortal experts but the pity is that they aren't here …" A sect head said hatefully but could only sigh helplessly.
No one answered him. Not only did Zhen Xing have Earthly Immortal experts, there were quite a few of them. Just the number of Earthly Immortal experts on the Universal Board alone numbered quite a few.
Unfortunately, none of these experts would stay in Zhen Xing. Most of them were searching for ways to advance from the Earthly Immortal Stage to the Heavenly Immortal Stage or ways to break through the void to attain immortality.
To these experts, if they knew that Zhen Xing had been breached from afar, they might really be too lazy to return. In their eyes, breaking through to a higher level was the most important thing.
"Boom boom boom!" The defensive array outside the Piercing Wind City rumbled continuously and this attack was only made up of tens of thousands of people. One could imagine that if hundreds of thousands or even millions of foreign invaders were to descend from the transfer array, the Piercing Wind City would be blasted apart sooner or later.
However, there was no doubt that hundreds of thousands or even millions of foreign invaders would descend from the transfer array. Just by looking at the number of foreign invaders descending from the transfer array like dumplings, one would know that it was only a matter of time.
"Are we just going to sit here and wait for death? Those cultivators who are willing to sacrifice for our Zhen Xing, charge out with me, "Seeing the endless stream of foreign invaders, Yan Ze shouted loudly.
Before anyone could respond, Xia Dandao said coldly, "Back then, Star Lord Wu had built so many defensive arrays so that we could defend the Piercing Wind City. If you were to charge out like this, then what would be the use of these defensive arrays?"
Su Xuan grunted coldly, "I agree with Hall Master Yan's words. Back when Star Lord Wu built these defensive arrays, he told us that once the transfer array was completed, we must seize the opportunity to attack them. He didn't want us to defend with our lives. If we wait here, then we will really be waiting for death. "
"Kill!" As she spoke, she had already led the army of cultivators and charged out with Yan Ze. Even though there was no commander, with someone leading the way, the crowd of cultivators followed suit.
Everyone was clear that what Su Xuan said was the truth. Once all the foreign invaders were transferred over, the Piercing Wind City would definitely not be able to defend.
Seeing the cultivators of the Piercing Wind City open the array door and charge out, the foreign invaders who were still attacking the defensive array of the Piercing Wind City immediately turned around and charged forward.
The cultivators from both sides started fighting outside the Piercing Wind City. In a short period of time, this place became a bigger and bigger battlefield.
At this instant, the cultivators of the Piercing Wind City kept on charging out and the transfer array outside the Piercing Wind City also had cultivators landing on it.
