At the relay station, the so-called righteous people were all dumbfounded!
Why was the River Immortal Ghost's aura so terrifying? It was so terrifying that everyone lost their righteous will and stood far away like cowards, only daring to sigh and not daring to get close.
Right now, the River Immortal Ghost was like a tiny spirit monster that was being torn apart by this man's dragon like a toy.
Was it because the River Immortal Ghost was too weak, or because the man was too strong?
The answer was definitely the latter. They had all witnessed the River Immortal Ghost's strength with their own eyes.
There could only be one reason why it was so easily taken care of!
"May I ask Venerable Dragon Shepard if you're an upper level Dragon Monarch? So … so powerful." A dragon shepard in his thirties finally dared to approach and ask in a soft voice.
"Ignorant. Since you killed the River Immortal Ghost so easily, Venerable's dragon must be an upper level Dragon Monarch. Are you from Purple Division Forest?" asked a man riding a tiger dragon.
Zhu Minglang couldn't help but smile when he heard their discussion, but he didn't answer.
He walked towards Wen Mengru and Bai Qinan who were trapped in the center of the current.
The two sword nuns' faces were extremely pale. They felt like they had suffered a great shock, like birds in the forest that had just experienced a storm. The shock hadn't completely subsided yet, and it might last for a long time.
Zhu Minglang took off his own water bag and handed it over to them to let them calm down their emotions.
Zhu Minglang was also confused. The River Immortal Ghost was a very strange creature. It was powerful and strange, and it could torture one's mind. However, it shouldn't be enough to scare the two sword nuns to such an extent.
With Bai Qinan's strength, he should be able to fight it.
"Come with me to the inn to rest. You can tell me what happened slowly." Zhu Minglang helped the two sword nuns up.
"We … we saw …"
"No rush, no rush. You need to rest. Don't think about what you saw," Zhu Minglang consoled them.
Zhu Minglang could tell that the two Sword Mistresses were uneasy from their expressions and state of mind. This matter was definitely not as simple as it seemed. Zhu Minglang even felt that they were forcefully holding themselves together to prevent their minds from collapsing …
Under such circumstances, asking them to recount their memories was tantamount to pushing them into the abyss of fear.
…
Bai Qinan and Wen Mengru were really frightened.
Even Bai Qinan, who had always given Zhu Minglang the impression that he was a teacher, showed signs of returning to his childhood.
People would only break down and cry like a child when they encountered something they couldn't bear. At this time, they would rely on things that could give them a sense of security.
Zhu Minglang helped them settle down and asked the others in the relay station what had happened.
"Immortal ghost?" Zhu Minglang raised his eyebrows. This was the first time he had heard of such a thing.
"That's right. Immortal ghosts are completely different from the demon spirits and devil spirits we usually encounter. These immortal ghosts basically have extraordinary abilities. They can either control a wide river or cause a huge forest to tumble. I've also heard that there's a type of Earth Immortal Ghost that can crush a city into dust with a single slap …" said the thirty-year-old man with large ears from before.
"The people say that they are River Gods, Mountain Gods, Earth Gods, and so on. It's because people haven't worshipped them, repaired the temples, or worshipped them that they've been punished!"
"The residents of the nearby dozen or so towns and villages are already asking for money to build temples for the River Gods. It's all to appease the River Gods' anger. Furthermore, you killed the River Immortal Ghost, which made them even more afraid. This is because they feel that it's just an incarnation of the true River God. You destroyed the incarnation of the River God, so the River God will be angry!"
In the eyes of many cultivators, there were only powerful living beings. There were no absolute gods.
However, to the people, anything that could control their fate was viewed as a god. Especially after seeing so many cultivators killed by immortal ghosts, they became even more convinced of the River Gods, Mountain Gods, and Earth Gods.
"Not good! Not good! Everyone, run for your lives, don't worry about the Demon Sealing Assembly Order! " Suddenly, a person in cultivator robes ran in and said to the cultivators who were resting in the inn.
"What are you saying? Immortal ghosts are powerful and cruel, but Zi Zonglin is the one who called for us to work together to deal with them. How can we be cowards?
Could it be that you're only cultivating for petty benefits and don't have any righteousness in your heart? "A handsome Divine Mortal said with a serious expression.
"The one who called for us, Zi Zonglin of Broad Mountain, has been destroyed. More than half of the Monarch level Dragon Shepherds and Divine Mortals died in Broad Mountain Zonglin. The people who gathered in Broad Mountain Zonglin escaped in the night …" The cultivator said.
"Nonsense, how could the Purple Division Forest be destroyed? It has a thousand years of history, and there are countless powerful purple dragons residing in the forest. Unless a god descended to the mortal world, how could the forest be destroyed?" That handsome young deity said.
There were quite a few people in the inn. After all, they'd all heard about the Demon Sealing Assembly Order and were heading to Broad Mountain Zonglin.
To put it bluntly, it was a rare opportunity to slay monsters and demons with the four great sects. These Dragon Shepherds and Divine Mortals from different factions and sects wanted to use this opportunity to display their strength and make a name for themselves in the world of cultivators.
Even if they couldn't participate in the operation, it was worth it to pay respects to the experts of the four great sects.
But before they'd even arrived, news had already spread that Zi Zonglin of Broad Mountain had been flattened and that many experts of the four great sects had died tragically in the main hall??
The organizer of the Demon Sealing Assembly had died before the official start!
"Didn't those two girls fly out from Zi Zonglin of Broad Mountain? We'll know if it's true if we ask them," said the big-eared man.
"That's right … judging from their outfits, they seem to be from the Sword Sect."
"They're from the Mount Xuan Sword Sect. I heard they like to wear bamboo hats that cover their faces."
Zhu Minglang's expression was solemn.
Could it be true …?
Zi Zonglin of Broad Mountain had been destroyed?
With Wen Mengru and Bai Qinan's cultivation and status, if they had the Demon Sealing Assembly Order, they should be in the main hall of Zi Zonglin of Broad Mountain to discuss countermeasures with the other experts of the forest.
"I'll go ask them. Everyone, please stay calm." Zhu Minglang knew that everyone was terrified, so he rose to his feet.
The others weren't sure if it was true. After all, they were some distance away from Zi Zonglin of Broad Mountain, and they didn't have the ability to see and hear things from afar …
To tell the truth, no one would believe it if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes.
"Don't be afraid, everyone. This young master has a Yun Dragon Emperor. Even if there are stronger immortal ghosts, he can guarantee our safety," said the big-eared man.
"But there should be a few Yun Dragon Emperors in Zi Zonglin of Broad Mountain," someone said softly.
When Zhu Minglang heard this, he turned around and said seriously, "You can think of it this way. If it's true, there's no difference whether you run or not. Why don't you sit down and order some good wine and dishes? At least you can enjoy yourself before you die."
