"Dang … Dang …"
At this moment, a few alarm bells sounded from outside the room. They sounded one after another and sounded very urgent.
Shen Luo's expression changed slightly. He was very familiar with the alarm bells. It was a sign that the ghosts were on the move. It had happened a few times during this period.
Sure enough, as soon as he thought of it, the official's token on his waist lit up with a green light and flashed quickly.
"Master, is something the matter?" Bai Xing hurriedly asked.
"Yes, I might need your help. Do as you did before." Shen Luo said as he raised his right arm and walked out quickly.
Bai Xing did not say anything. Her body flashed with white light and disappeared. She turned into a white arm guard and put it on Shen Luo's right arm.
Shen Luo soon arrived at the Weapon Repository.
At this moment, the Weapon Repository was bustling with noise. Various teams of cultivators were gathered here in a mess and were busy receiving missions.
Shen Luo looked around the Weapon Repository and soon saw He Wenzheng's figure in a corner. Zhou Meng, Zhao Tingsheng, and their subordinates were also present.
"Brother He, what's going on? What's the mission this time? "Shen Luo quickly walked over and asked.
"Those ghosts suddenly launched a large-scale attack. All the districts were attacked. Moreover, the ghosts this time are different from the previous ones. There are many more zombies with great strength and defense. They are very difficult to deal with." He Wenzheng frowned and said.
"Zombies?" Shen Luo's eyes flickered.
"Brother Shen, your mission is to go to Guang De Fang and assist the army there to protect Guang De Fang." He Wenzheng immediately said.
When Zhou Meng heard this, his body trembled. He opened his mouth and looked like he wanted to say something but stopped.
Shen Luo saw the change in Zhou Meng's expression. He nodded at He Wenzheng and said, "Brother He, don't worry. We will not disappoint you!"
"Then I will leave it to you." He Wenzheng said to Shen Luo and immediately left to issue missions to the other teams.
"Let's go." Seeing this, Shen Luo did not linger in the Weapons Repository any longer. He led Zhou Meng, Zhao Tingsheng, and the others out of the Weapons Repository and headed towards Guang De Lane.
On the streets, the people of the various households closed their doors and windows. Groups of soldiers holding excellent weapons and wearing brightly colored armor were rushing out of the Imperial Palace, heading to various places in the city.
Seeing this, Shen Luo was secretly shocked.
Those soldiers were the Imperial Guards who were tasked with guarding the Inner Palace. It seemed that the scale of the ghost attack this time was truly unprecedented. Could it be that the time for the final battle had finally arrived?
The others didn't look too good either.
Shen Luo asked Zhou Meng, who was beside him, "Daoist Zhou, when you accepted the mission, your expression didn't look right. Could it be that there's something wrong with Guang De Fang?"
Zhao Tingsheng also noticed Zhou Meng's strange expression and looked over.
Zhou Meng hesitated for a moment before saying, "Although the strength of my Mountain Fist Sect is not as great as that of the Life Transformation Temple or Mount Putuo, we have been in Chang 'an for a long time and have a wide network of connections. Before I came to the Weapons Repository, I had already heard that the ghost attack this time was focused on a few areas. One of them was Guang De Fang."
"Since Guang De Fang is so dangerous, why didn't He Wenzheng warn us? Is he afraid that we will cower in battle or is he trying to trick us into becoming cannon fodder? "Zhao Tingsheng said with some dissatisfaction.
"Daoist Zhao, be careful with your words." Shen Luo frowned and reprimanded him in a low voice.
Zhao Tingsheng regretted his words the moment they left his mouth and rubbed his hands awkwardly.
"Now that we are in the same boat as Chang 'an, we should work together to defend against the enemy. What we should avoid the most is suspicion. Brother He is a member of the Great Tang government, how could he scheme against us?" Shen Luo said seriously.
"Yes, it was a slip of the tongue!" Zhao Tingsheng admitted his mistake in a low voice.
"However, since there are so many ghosts in Guang De Fang, everyone must be careful and not advance rashly." Shen Luo added.
"Yes!" Everyone replied in unison.
The group of people galloped and soon arrived at the vicinity of Guang De Fang.
"Quick! Guard the entrance of the street! We must not let these zombies break in! "
"Ah ah ah …"
"Help!"
While they were still some distance away from Guang De Fang, the group could hear the intense cries of battle. The situation seemed to be very urgent.
The imperial court's army had already been stationed in various parts of the city to defend against the invasion of the ghosts. Although these soldiers did not have mana, the weapons they used were specially made by the Great Tang government and could cause damage to ghosts.
"I will go and provide support first, the rest of you hurry over!" Shen Luo's crimson sword radiance flashed under his feet. Before he finished speaking, he had already shot into the air.
After flying for a short distance, his expression changed.
The streets in front of him were densely packed with zombies. These zombies had swollen bodies and appeared to be larger than an ordinary person. Yellow pus flowed from their skin, making them look extremely disgusting.
Although they were disgusting, these zombies' mouths were filled with bestial fangs and sharp claws. Although the soldiers were wielding specially made weapons, they were still unable to stop them. Several places were already in imminent danger.
This was especially so for one of the main streets of Guang De Fang. This place was extremely spacious, with a width of more than a hundred zhang. Countless zombies were surging out from within like a flood. Although the Great Tang soldiers guarding this place had formed a square formation to try and stop them, these zombies were immensely strong and had thick skin. Swords and sabers did not have much of an effect on their bodies. It seemed like their defensive line was about to be breached.
Shen Luo bellowed. The Pure Yang sword embryo beneath his feet shot out like a bolt of lightning, transforming into a crimson sword rainbow. With a 'sou' sound, it shot into the midst of the zombie army. Then, amidst the furious roars of countless zombies, it abruptly transformed into a chilling crimson halo, spreading out in all directions like a peacock spreading its tail.
All the zombies within a hundred zhang of the street trembled and were uniformly cleaved in two. A putrid stench of blood permeated the air.
Shen Luo was somewhat bewildered. The bodies of these zombies were much weaker than those he had encountered before. It felt like they were strong on the outside but weak on the inside.
"It's Lord Immortal!"
"We're saved!"
After a moment of shock, the soldiers who had just escaped death cheered in excitement.
Shen Luo ignored the soldiers below. With a wave of his hand, he summoned back the Pure Yang sword embryo and immediately shot toward the next area that was in imminent danger.
At this moment, in the depths of the street occupied by the ghosts, the void rippled, and a figure wrapped in a black robe appeared out of thin air.
"Damn it, we were only one step away from breaking in, who's in the way!? Hey, this person is … "The black figure said hatefully at first, but when he saw Shen Luo's appearance, he was surprised.
"Nu Chuan, what's going on? The Altar has invested the most forces in Guang De Fang, so why haven't we broken through its defences yet? "Two more figures flew out from the depths of the street.
These two people were not wearing black robes. They were the Body Tempering Altar cultivators Shen Luo had fought before, Daoist Cang Mu and Qian Tong.
"Someone is obstructing us, take a look for yourselves," The black-robed figure took off the hood on her head, revealing a charming face. It was none other than Nu Chuan.
"It's him!" Daoist Cang Mu and Qian Tong looked in the direction Nu Chuan pointed and their pupils shrank as they immediately recognized Shen Luo.
