The old man surnamed Yao had lived for countless years. Perhaps even his eyelashes were hollow. Hearing this, he smiled but did not say anything.
"In any case, we are entrusted by the Sect to guard the entrance to the Evil Ghost Way. It's better to be careful." The white-haired man of the Nature Work Sect said lightly.
The others nodded. Only the long-eyebrowed young man of the Demon Mystic Sect was a little disapproving, but he didn't say much under the stern eyes of the middle-aged beautiful woman next to him.
"By the way, Brother Yao, Brother Wei, where is Senior Huo Ye of your sect now? Since the Evil Ghost Legion dared to attack our 4 major cities this time, they must have something to rely on. If the Mystic Ghost Legion takes action personally, we can't resist it alone. "The white-haired man of the Nature Work Sect raised his eyebrows and continued.
The others also showed a cautious look when they heard this.
"Everyone, don't worry. Our sect's Elder Huo Ye is near the Black Peak Valley at the moment. If the opponent is a Mystic Understanding cultivator, he will definitely not let it go." Standing next to the old man surnamed Yao, the gray-haired middle-aged man who hadn't spoken until now suddenly said.
"If that's the case, we can rest assured. Now that the war is tense, it's not convenient for us to talk more. We will go down first." The white-haired man nodded and said. He gently waved his arm, and the green light wall on the left silently collapsed. It turned into specks of green crystal light that dissipated into the air.
Immediately afterward, the handsome man of the Haoran Academy and the middle-aged beautiful woman of the Demon Mystic Sect in the middle and the middle-aged beautiful woman of the Demon Mystic Sect also said goodbye. After making a gesture with one hand, the 2 green light walls also collapsed and disappeared.
Seeing this, the old man surnamed Yao and the gray-haired middle-aged man left the magic circle. At the same time, they whispered a few incantations, and the circular magic circle on the ground also dimmed.
The room was restored to peace again.
The old man surnamed Yao frowned. He turned sideways and was about to say something to the gray-haired man next to him. A rush of footsteps approached the door of the room.
"Reporting to the two elders, I just received news that the fortress outside the city was once again attacked by a large group of Evil Ghost Legion, and the attack was fierce. Two fortresses have fallen." A voice sounded outside the door.
The old man surnamed Yao and the gray-haired middle-aged man were startled and quickly opened the door. The person outside was the deacon elder surnamed Gu, and he looked very anxious.
"Tell us the details first," Old Man Yao said with a dark expression.
…
At the same time, the No. 18 fortress of Jin Guangjun was located on the hillside of a steep mountain thousands of miles away in the northeast of Golden Light City.
At this moment, the entire outside of the fortress was shrouded in black mist, covering most of the sky.
In the black gas, however, there were countless evil spirits dressed in ancient armor, surrounding the entire fortress.
For a time, roars and explosions interweaved and resounded throughout the entire mountain.
Under the command of the Malevolent Captain, a dense barrage of attacks rained down from all directions, landing on the protective barrier of light that was flickering with a green light outside the fortress.
Although the protective light wall flickered chaotically, it still blocked all the attacks.
Inside the fortress, dozens of guarding disciples held formation flags nervously, desperately injecting magic power into them. The formation flags emitted beams of light that merged with the protective wall outside.
On a high platform in the middle of the guarding disciples, a man dressed in the uniform of the second squad leader of the Jin Guangjun Army was holding a square communication formation disk in his hand. He was solemnly reporting something.
"How many evil ghosts are besieging the fortress now?" A voice came from the formation disk.
"At least a thousand, and the leaders are three Jin Dan realm evil ghost commanders … If this goes on, the defensive formation of the fortress will soon be unable to hold on. We are urgently requesting military assistance," the middle-aged man said anxiously.
"Hold on a little longer, the two main squads are on their way. They are estimated to arrive in half an hour …"
As soon as the voice from the formation disk died away, a loud sound came from outside. The entire fortress shook violently, and some cracks appeared on the protective light wall.
Seeing this, the dozens of disciples in the fortress turned pale.
Outside the fortress, above the group of evil ghost soldiers besieging the fortress, three large evil ghost commanders were floating.
"You two, go and help us get rid of these humans quickly. The order from above is not to leave a single one alive!" The evil ghost commander with a single horn on his head and a ferocious-looking face looked at the cracks on the protective light wall below and said coldly.
The other two evil ghost commanders responded. One of them, a black-faced commander with a bow bag on his back, took a step forward and rubbed his hands together. Suddenly, a black light appeared in his hands, and a black longbow appeared in his hands.
Suddenly, several black electric arcs were ejected from the bow, and the sound of thunder was endless.
However, with a gentle lift of his other hand, he took out a two-foot long, crimson arrow from the bow bag. He skillfully put it on the bow, slowly pulled the bow, and aimed at the fortress below.
On the bow, the black electric arcs and the crimson flames intertwined and fused. There was a loud rumbling sound, and a huge spiritual pressure suddenly emerged, spreading in all directions like a huge wave.
Another evil ghost commander with a green face and fangs turned over his hand and took out a nine-ringed ghost head broadsword that was surrounded by gray gas. Shrill ghost cries were faintly heard from the vibrating rings of the broadsword, and a cold and gloomy aura emanated from the broadsword.
Inside the fortress, the middle-aged man in the Jin Dan realm sensed the sudden appearance of two huge spiritual pressures outside, and a trace of despair appeared on his face.
Rumble!
A huge thunderfire arrow hit the green light shield outside the fortress. The light shield, which was already riddled with scars, flickered wildly twice, and finally collapsed with a loud bang.
Immediately afterward, a gray saber light that was hundreds of feet long flashed and heavily struck the fortress.
Without the protective light shield, the fortress could not withstand such a huge saber light at all. The entire fortress was cleaved in half from the middle.
For a time, the fortress built on the hillside shook violently, and gravel flew everywhere.
Seeing this, the dense evil ghosts suddenly screamed excitedly. They rushed to the gap below like a tide, drowning the entire fortress in the blink of an eye.
…
To the south of the Black Peak Valley, there was a gray hilly area. Within a radius of nearly ten thousand miles, there were undulating mountains and wild ridges.
Somewhere in the hills, there was a fortress with only broken fences and dilapidated walls. It seemed to have been destroyed not long ago.
Inside and outside the fortress, rubble was scattered on the ground. There were many corpses of cultivators in khaki armor. Some of them were already badly mutilated, with broken arms and limbs, and blood flowing on the ground.
In addition, there were many wreckage of giant puppets scattered around.
Similar scenes were staged from time to time in the area outside the main cities of the 4 major legions.
It didn't take long for the senior elders of the 4 major legions to receive reports one after another. In less than half a day, several fortresses of the 4 major legions were captured by the Ghost Army at lightning speed, leaving no survivors.
…
In the closed room of the main city of Golden Light City, the old man surnamed Yao and the gray-haired middle-aged man once again stood side by side in front of the green light circular array. They frowned and looked worried.
"I didn't expect that we would meet again in less than half a day." On a light wall on the left in front of the two, the white-haired middle-aged man of Nature Work Sect said with a wry smile.
"The actions of the Evil Ghost Army are unpredictable. It's really hard to guard against them. It seems that there is no need to say anything more. The attack of the Ghost Army is almost the same. Brother Yao, do you have any good suggestions? "On the right light wall, the handsome man of Haoran Academy said with a gloomy face.
"Until now, we haven't been able to thoroughly find out how many troops they have used. At present, we can only temporarily defend and attack. When the situation is a little clearer, then we will make other plans." The old man surnamed Yao shook his head and said.
"I also agree with this. We can consider giving up some small fortresses, shrink the line of defense, and concentrate our forces in the main city and the nearby large fortresses." The middle-aged beautiful woman of Demon Mystic Sect on the middle light wall said so, but the young man with long eyebrows beside her was nowhere to be seen.
"I agree with this proposal, and I suggest that our 4 major cities don't easily mobilize the troops to support unless it's a last resort, lest the Ghost Army creates a diversion. The Ghost Army has never been suitable for a protracted war. We'd better stay still and wait for a good opportunity to counterattack. "The white-haired middle-aged man of Nature Work Sect said so after thinking for a while.
"Since you have already agreed, I have no opinion. Let's do it this way." The old man surnamed Yao nodded after thinking for a while.
The handsome man of Haoran Academy naturally had no opinion.
With a silent flash of green light, the 3 green light walls disappeared in front of them.
"Brother Yao, if we really defend our stronghold, Peaceful Sky Fortress will be completely exposed to the Ghost Army. Although this fortress is located in the middle of our 4 major cities, and we haven't seen a large number of Ghost Army so far, I always feel a little uneasy. After all, if this fortress is lost, we will be completely isolated and fall into a passive situation. Once the Ghost Army sets up a restriction to isolate us, I'm afraid we won't be able to communicate with each other like this, "the grey-haired middle-aged man suddenly said when the 2 of them exited the secret room.
"Of course I know that. But now we are in the light, and the Ghost Army is in the dark. This kind of situation is inevitable. In contrast, the safety of Golden Light City is the most important thing. In addition, our 4 major legions have already taken precautions against this. I've temporarily dispatched Cao Zhanghe there, and the other Sect has also sent reinforcements there. In case the Ghost Army really attacks Peaceful Sky, we don't have to worry too much, "the old man surnamed Yao said with a nod.
"It turns out that Brother Yao has already made arrangements. I'm relieved. If there are reinforcements, with the defensive ability of Peaceful Sky Fortress, as long as the Profound Ghost Army doesn't personally attack, it won't be a problem. "The grey-haired middle-aged man said with a relieved expression.
