The City Lord's Mansion was still bustling with noise. Refugees were everywhere.
There were civilians dying every second, turning into pools of blood in front of everyone's eyes, leaving only skeletons behind.
Children's cries, men, women, old, and young screams of pain and anguish rang out in the City Lord's Mansion, causing everyone's heart to feel heavy.
The twenty thousand Eastwood Army soldiers who were digging underground quickly retreated from the City Lord's Mansion and went to search for civilians.
The ground was quiet, as if nothing had happened.
However, what everyone couldn't see was that there were hundreds of elf-like dwarves active in the rock layers and soil a thousand meters below the City Lord's Mansion.
They were all using their race's talent to control the power of metal and earth. They were digging tunnels at an unbelievable speed, building many tunnels and shelters.
The underground of Xun Feng City, within a radius of fifty miles, was changing at an extremely fast speed.
Two hours passed quickly, and an underground castle gradually appeared in the depths of Xun Feng City.
Although this underground castle was still very simple and crude, it was huge in scale and extended in all directions. It could accommodate hundreds of thousands of civilians for a short period of time.
Half an hour later, the construction of the underground castle was completed.
Ai Luo led the eight hundred warriors and reported to Ji Tianxing excitedly.
Ji Tianxing knew that Ai Luo and the Earth Spirit Race warriors had done their best. He was very gratified and grateful for this.
He put Ai Luo and the warriors into the sword world and then passed on the good news to Xiao Han.
Xiao Han, Xiao Chen, and Xiao Ling`er were gathered together to discuss countermeasures. They had anxious expressions on their faces.
After Ji Tianxing arrived, the three of them stopped talking and looked at him in unison.
"Tianxing, how's the progress of the project?" Xiao Han asked expectantly.
Ji Tianxing nodded and said calmly, "The underground shelter has been completed. We can now move all the civilians there."
"What?"
"It's only been three hours, and it's already completed?"
"Young Master Ji, are you sure it can accommodate one hundred and twenty thousand civilians?"
Xiao Han, Xiao Chen, and Xiao Ling`er were all dumbfounded. They looked at Ji Tianxing in disbelief.
Ji Tianxing did not explain anything. He pointed to the ground under his feet and said, "You will know when you see it."
The three of them hurriedly released their spiritual senses and soul power and probed a thousand meters into the ground to investigate the situation.
They immediately saw that dense tunnels had appeared in the rock stratum deep below the ground at some point, extending in all directions and interweaving with each other.
Hundreds of spacious and enormous caves were scattered deep underground and connected by numerous tunnels.
Thousands of small caves had been dug into the walls of those caves, which could accommodate the temporary residence of the common people.
This was a refuge for the common people to hide in!
Each shelter could hold thousands of people. With hundreds of shelters added together, they could really hold 500,000 people!
Seeing this scene, Xiao Han and the other two were once again dumbfounded, shocked to the point of being dumbstruck.
"Oh my god! How was this an underground passage and shelter? This is simply an underground city! "
"Unbelievable! Not to mention 120,000 commoners, even 500,000 commoners wouldn't be a problem! "
"This is simply a miracle! Young Master Ji, how did you do it? This is simply like the power of a god! "
Seeing the exaggerated and shocked reactions of the three, Ji Tianxing did not explain anything. He waved his hand and said, "Don't waste time, quickly move the commoners to the underground city.
The structure of the underground city is very tight, and the ventilation and drainage facilities are very safe. As long as it is protected by a formation, it will not be invaded by the plague for at least a month. "
Xiao Han once again revealed a shocked expression, and said with a joyful tone, "Tianxing! This is really great! In this way, the commoners can hide for at least a month! "
Xiao Chen immediately bowed to Ji Tianxing and said excitedly, "Young Master Ji, on behalf of the commoners of Xunfeng City, I express my most sincere gratitude to you. You are their second parent!"
After bowing, he turned to leave and passed down the order to move the commoners.
Xiao Ling`er looked at Ji Tianxing with bright eyes, revealing a deep shock and admiration.
The closer she got to Ji Tianxing and the more she understood him, the more she felt that he was incomparably mysterious, unfathomable, and omnipotent!
She even couldn't help but fantasize, how could there be such a perfect man in this world?
Following that, Xiao Chen and the soldiers of Donglin Army were busy moving the commoners.
Xiao Han also found the ventilation and water outlets of the underground city and set up a few Soul-grade formations to protect the air and water from the corrosion of the poisonous plague.
Ji Tianxing let Xiao Ling`er stay in the City Lord's Mansion while he left alone. He flew around the city to check on the situation of the plague.
He wanted to find some clues in the city to find a solution to the poisonous plague as soon as possible.
… …
After an hour, Ji Tianxing flew around Xunfeng City and finally landed on the tower of the plaza in the city.
He stood at the top of the tower, which was a hundred zhang tall, and looked around expressionlessly.
The sky was covered with dark clouds, and the poisonous black gas was getting denser and denser.
The endless dark red blood gas also gathered into a blood mist that covered the sky and flew into the distance.
Just now, he looked around the city and saw that nine out of ten houses were empty. Most of the commoners had fled Xunfeng City or moved to the underground city.
The streets and alleys, as well as the houses, were filled with skeletons. There were as many as a hundred thousand skeletons. It was a ghastly sight.
Unfortunately, he didn't find any useful clues.
He even released his Divine Sense to search the entire city. He checked the two hundred thousand refugees, but he didn't find the demon in disguise.
At this moment, he stood alone on the top of the tower. After he calmed down, he silently thought and analyzed.
"A thousand years ago, the Demon Emperor snuck into Zhongzhou and wantonly spread the Demonic Gu, causing the deaths of millions of commoners.
The Demonic Gu killed millions of commoners, but it gathered an endless amount of flesh, blood, and souls for the Demon Emperor, causing his strength to increase explosively. Almost no one could defeat him.
Now that the Demonic Gu can no longer harm the commoners of Zhongzhou, the Demon Emperor used the ancient evil technique, Blood God, to harm the commoners of the three races again.
The Blood God carries the Three Calamities and Nine Tribulations, which is ten times more dangerous than the Demonic Gu. That's why it caused such a tragic situation today!
The Demon Emperor must have his own scheme and purpose. It's very likely that he wants to use the flesh, blood, and souls of the commoners to increase his strength again!
Although the poisonous plague can't hurt Soul Refinement Realm cultivators and can only kill mortals below the Soul Refinement Realm, how rare are Soul Refinement Realm cultivators in this world?
Even if every Soul Refinement Realm cultivator tries their best to protect the commoners, they are too busy.
The only way to solve this disaster is to eliminate the Blood God!
Unfortunately, the Blood God is hiding in the dark. It's impossible to guard against them. It's very difficult to find them! "
Thinking of this, Ji Tianxing looked at the dark red blood mist in the sky. His eyes flashed with a cold light.
"No matter how deep the Blood God is hiding, the ultimate purpose of creating this disaster is to devour flesh, blood, and souls.
