On the six surrounding towers, the expressions of Liu Ming and the others changed when they heard the words "Ghost Earthworm".
This beast was one of the giant Umbra Beasts. It looked very similar to an earthworm and had an unusually large body. Although it did not have high intelligence, it was good at drilling underground tunnels and moving at a terrifying speed underground. Therefore, it was used by the Evil Ghost Legion to allow various Umbra Beasts to reside in its belly and carry out long-distance underground transportation.
However, this beast was extremely rare. According to the current information, there were only a few of them in the Evil Ghost Legion. Moreover, because this beast did not have any offensive or defensive abilities, it could be easily killed by someone with the strength of the Crystal Level. Therefore, it generally did not appear in large-scale battles.
Following the screams of "Ao Ao", beams of red light shot up from the collapsed area, dispersing the nearby gray ghost fog.
Immediately afterward, giant dark-red earthworms began to poke their heads out of the caved-in area. Then, they crawled out of the caved-in area like snakes emerging from a hole, crawling along the plains toward Fort Taitian.
Each of these Ghost Earthworms was at least fifty to sixty feet long. They had no eyes on their heads, but they had two pairs of black and white tentacles. On each section of their bodies, there was a circle of black and round holes about half a foot in size. As they expanded and contracted, they constantly spouted a faint gray fog.
"Stop it! Don't let it near the city wall!" Cao Zhanghe ordered decisively.
On the high platform where Liu Ming was, the six people hurriedly moved to the side and flipped the golden mirror in their hands. A thick golden beam of light shot straight at one of the giant earthworms.
The golden light flashed.
With a "pu" sound, the giant earthworm was directly hit in the head by the golden beam of light.
"Boom!"
The entire giant earthworm's head and a small part of its body instantly turned into ashes, leaving only the upper half of its long body. With a "plop", it collapsed to the ground.
After twisting its body a few more times, the giant earthworm lay motionless on the ground.
On the middle tower, the two formation flags in Cao Zhanghe's hands constantly changed their positions. The Bowl of Fortune above his head shot out golden beams of light in all directions, and through the Golden Light Mirror Array on the surrounding six towers, they constantly bounced toward the approaching Ghost Worms.
Although there was a gap between each activation of the Golden Light Formation, fortunately, the speed of the Ghost Worms on the ground was not fast. In less than 30 minutes, the rest of the giant worms had their heads smashed and fell to the ground, unable to get up.
However, before everyone could rejoice, clouds of gray mist gushed out from the dense black holes on the remaining half of the giant earthworms' bodies.
"Not good!"
When the gray Qi dissipated, everyone could clearly see what was going on. To their surprise, they saw a dense horde of ghost soldiers pouring out from the holes on the ghost earthworm's corpse. There were at least several thousand of them, and under the command of several Jin Dan realm evil ghost commanders, the ghost soldiers were led by dozens of evil ghost commandants. They split into dozens of square formations and charged towards Fort Peaceful Sky.
For a time, the sound of ghost howling filled the air!
Because the puppets in the front row were blocking other ghost soldiers from the periphery, even if the Demon Mystic Sect disciples on the city wall changed their direction and began to attack the ghost soldiers who had suddenly appeared, there were too many of them, and they still could not stop them from approaching the fort.
With the command of the Jin Dan Captains, hundreds of low-level disciples on the city wall also jumped down from the city wall, activated the spiritual weapons in their hands, and fought with the ghost soldiers.
However, there were simply too many ghostly soldiers. It didn't take long for many low-level disciples to be overwhelmed by the phalanx of ghostly soldiers. The silver light barrier that enveloped the stronghold also trembled violently under the frenzied attacks of the ghostly soldiers who had broken through the defensive line.
The sudden appearance of so many enemy reinforcements on the north wall suddenly put the situation of Fort Peaceful Sky in a precarious situation.
"Brother Cao, the ghost soldiers are currently fighting with us on the outskirts. These ghost soldiers are too close to the city walls. Our Golden Light Formation is no longer able to attack them," a middle-aged man with curly hair said with a serious expression on his face on a tall tower.
"The four Celestial Phenomenon Elders have not appeared since the beginning, I am afraid that they are trying to activate the Array Peaceful Sky at this moment." Another beautiful young woman said.
"Yes, we just need to hold on until the elders activate the Array Peaceful Sky. Now, let's start the second plan!" Cao Zhanghe made a decision after thinking for a while.
When Liu Ming and others heard this, they threw the golden mirror in their hands into the void, and their figures swayed. They jumped from the high tower and swooped out of the north wall.
At the same time, Cao Zhanghe waved the formation flags in his hands in a frenzy, and the thirty-six golden mirrors around him rotated in the void before slowly converging above his head. All of the golden mirrors combined into one, forming an exquisite six-sided golden mirror ball that was about ten feet in size.
Immediately afterward, the golden light that shot out from the Fortune Bowl was refracted by the golden mirror ball, and scattered into thousands of golden beams of light, all of which disappeared into the silver light curtain that covered the fort, causing strands of golden flowing light to appear on the trembling silver light curtain, and slightly stabilized it.
Outside the northern city wall of the Stronghold, the low level guarding disciples, who were caught in a bitter battle, saw Liu Ming and the other thirty-six disciples flying down, and their morale was greatly boosted. As for the thousands of ghost soldiers, they roared and condensed the ghost aura around their bodies into gray spears, shooting toward Liu Ming and the others in an overwhelming manner.
Seeing this, Liu Ming's figure flashed a few times and easily avoided these ghost spears. He then landed in a phalanx composed of about a hundred ghost soldiers.
With a loud shout, five black mist dragons that were hundreds of meters long condensed from his back in an instant.
With a dragon roar, the black mist dragons circled back and forth in the entire group of ghost soldiers like a dragon playing in the water. A pair of sharp claws scratched the ghost soldiers.
Wherever the black claw light passed, the low-level ghost soldiers were pierced by the claws of the mist dragons and turned into flying ashes in the sky.
Seeing this, the leading evil ghost captain kept channeling the ghost mist on his body, turning it into a grey light beam that shot at the black mist dragons.
"Hell Purgatory!"
Seeing this, Liu Ming's eyes turned cold. He gently squeezed with one hand, and the five black mist dragons circled for a while. Suddenly, they exploded with a "poof", turning into a sky full of black light, trapping a dozen evil ghosts in front of them.
He then raised a hand, and a clear ringing sound rang out as a purple sword light shot out from his sleeve.
The sound of electric arcs jumping came, and a thunder snake shot out from the purple sword light. Then, the purple light flashed and went into the Hell Purgatory.
A series of low, inaudible screams sounded one after another.
Only then did Liu Ming take back the Bitter Wheel Sword with one hand. With a shake of his sleeve, the Hell Purgatory in front of him suddenly collapsed silently, but the many ghosts inside had already disappeared. Instead, wisps of grey ghost energy dissipated in all directions.
To Liu Ming's surprise, as soon as the ghost energy dissipated, a large number of ghosts around him stopped fighting and began to rush to devour it. Moreover, the aura around them rose steadily and became more ferocious.
Similar situations were also repeated in other places, but now Liu Ming and the other 36 elite disciples, each of them had to face the siege of hundreds of ghost soldiers, so they had no time to care about this.
When Liu Ming was a little surprised, not far behind him, there was an evil ghost captain with a rather strange appearance and an incomplete body. After absorbing a lot of ghost energy, the incomplete parts of his body were regenerating at a rapid speed. His aura that originally stayed at the later stage of the Crystallization Period also gradually rose.
After a few more breaths, the grey mist around the Evil Ghost Commandant's body suddenly flourished, and a huge phantom of a ghost's head appeared behind him. Then, with a "boom", an astonishing spiritual pressure burst forth.
This evil ghost actually directly broke through the Jin Dan realm and turned into an evil ghost commander with a hideous face and a bumpy body. Its eyes were full of murderous light, and its mouth made a "zi zi" sound.
At this time, outside the light curtain of the nearby city wall, several other evil ghost captains also successfully advanced to the Jin Dan realm, and they attacked the light curtain enchantment crazily.
Liu Ming glanced and saw this scene clearly. His face immediately turned gloomy. While channeling the Bitter Wheel Sword to kill the ghost soldiers that came like a tide, he quickly patted the leather bag on his waist.
"Pu! Pu!" Two curls of mist, one black and one green, floated out. They revolved in the air and turned into two figures, one tall and one short. They were Fei 'er and Xie' er.
"Fei Er, you go and clean up those low rank ghosts. Scorpion, follow me!" Liu Ming quickly ordered the 2.
"Master, don't worry. Leave these low rank ghosts to me!"
With a look of excitement on his face, Fei 'er threw the bead on his neck. After his figure blurred, he turned into 9 green-robed boys and rushed toward the ghost army in all directions. Wherever they passed, green gas billowed, and many low-rank ghosts were torn apart by the 9 boys.
Seeing this, Liu Ming nodded his head. Just as he was about to turn around and rush toward the city wall, the Malevolent Ghost Commander that had just advanced flew toward Liu Ming with a gray aura all over its body.
Scorpion, who wanted to follow Liu Ming, saw this and blocked in front of the evil ghost with a murderous look on her cold face.
Seeing this, the evil ghost commander's eyes flashed. It opened its mouth and spat out a red ghost flame, sweeping toward Scorpion.
Scorpion's eyes flashed, and the golden mark on top of her head flickered. A golden light blasted out.
"Impossible, you're also a ghost, how could you …" When the evil ghost commander saw the golden light, it revealed a look of horror and cried out involuntarily.
But when the red ghost flame just touched the golden light beam, it was directly turned into smoke and dissipated.
When the evil ghost was shocked and wanted to turn around to escape, a large golden light swept over again, causing it to scream.
