No Cultivator was willing to encounter an army of ghosts because the magnetic field was too strong.
This was because the magnetic field interference of malicious ghosts was too strong. Even if a cultivator could destroy a malicious ghost with a wave of his hand, his soul would still be slightly affected.
If they were surrounded by thousands of ghosts, the minor interference would accumulate and disrupt the steady circulation of spiritual energy of the Cultivators. Their soul would be corrupted by the evil aura. If they were lucky, their Cultivation would be damaged, and if they were unlucky, they would be mentally deranged.
It was safe to say that activating the most primitive life potential deep inside the brain with unforgettable hatred and a miserable death and turning oneself into a ghost was the only countermeasure that the ordinary people could possibly cause harm to the Cultivators in the primitive environment of the ancient Cultivators. It was a special 'suicide attack'.
The situation in the Ancient Sages Sector was actually not bad.
Because the Sector was covered in a thick, dark nebula, the spiritual energy and probe methods outside could not penetrate in. Naturally, the extraterrestrial devils did not know the existence of the Sector, either.
In the three thousand Sectors outside, in the age of the ancient Cultivators, 'devils' and 'ghosts' were of the same family.
When countless ghosts congregated into an overwhelming army, and the intense negative feelings broke through the sky and spread out to the universe, the extraterrestrial devils wandering in the sea of stars would sense it.
At that time, when the extraterrestrial devils arrived and strengthened the army of ghosts with the unparalleled tenebrum energy and even spread it to the living people, it would be an out-and-out catastrophe.
The population of an entire planet would be transformed into an army of ghosts and demonic Cultivators, destroying the Cultivation sects and Cultivation civilizations in the few Sectors nearby. It had happened before, too.
However, it was exactly because the ordinary people in the three thousand Sectors outside had the ultimate countermeasure of 'seducing the extraterrestrial devils' that the Cultivators paid special attention to the harmonious relationship with the ordinary people and tried to build a harmonious society so that the extraterrestrial devils would not take advantage of it.
Also, in the thirty thousand years of the Great Dark Age, the ordinary people and the Cultivators were both cruelly bullied and gradually turned into a community with a shared destiny. That was the prototype of the modern Cultivation civilization.
In the Ancient Sages Sector, there was no such thing as the arrival of extraterrestrial devils. The most advanced form that the ordinary people could transform into ghosts was' Mother White Lotus' Wan Mingzhu. It was not enough to shake the foundation of the Cultivators' reign.
Perhaps that was why the Cultivators' attitude toward the ordinary people did not change much in the past hundred thousand years.
Thinking to himself, Li Yao looked at Roaring Tiger City at the end of the camp of the disaster victims.
With just one look, he praised in his heart, "What an impregnable city!"
This city was backed by a luxuriant mountain range that was precipitous. It was like a crouching tiger that had just awoken, and it emitted a piercingly cold killing intent. It was precisely the famous mountain in the southeast region, Heavenly Tiger Mountain.
At the end of the Heavenly Tiger Mountain, Roaring Tiger City, which was purely made of black boulders, was really like a gigantic tiger head that was opening its bloody mouth.
Even from tens of miles away, one could faintly sense that powerful and domineering aura that could tear everything apart.
It was said that, when the city was being built, Roaring Tiger Hall had purchased the demon cores and bones of almost ten thousand ferocious beasts and embedded them into the critical parts of the city. It had taken them ten years to build the Tiger Apparitions Array carefully. The defense rune array had been integrated with the city naturally. When it was fully activated, it seemed that thousands of ferocious beasts were guarding the city day and night. It was almost as powerful as the arrays of the six major sects, including the Grand Mystery Sect and the Purple Pole Sword Sect.
Behind Roaring Tiger City were steep rocks, but in front of it was a bottomless moat. Dangerous tides were popping up in the dark water nonstop, making it look like a great river.
If one looked carefully, one could even vaguely see the shadows of aquatic ferocious beasts such as dragons, bizarre boas, and giant crocodiles in the moat. They were all the spiritual beasts that Roaring Tiger Hall kept.
As long as the iron drawbridge below the 'tiger's mouth' in the front was raised high, it would be barely possible for the common Cultivators to break in through the land.
From the sky …
Li Yao noticed that the fortress in the shape of a giant tiger's head was riddled with hundreds of holes. Although he could not see what was inside, he could vaguely sense the intimidating killing intent inside. Even a Yuanying expert like him had a vague warning.
They must be the holes of the Crouching Tiger Cannons and the Fiery Crow Ballistae.
The Crouching Tiger Cannons and the Fiery Crow Ballistae were both famous remote magical equipment in the Ancient Sages Sector. When Li Yao was in the Purple Pole Sword Sect, he had obtained a few drawings and real objects for study.
Although the two pieces of magical equipment were rather crude and primitive in terms of the mechanism of activation, they could still unleash tremendous power after being filled with crystals of extremely high purity.
If dozens of Crouching Tiger Cannons were launched at the same time, it was indeed possible to pose a considerable threat to the Yuanying experts.
Li Yao did not dare underestimate the magical equipment of the ancient Cultivators at all.
Even the stone axes and stone spears of the primitive people could be used to kill people.
He deduced in his brain that the battle pattern of the Roaring Tiger Hall in the defense of the mountain gate should be like this. First, the Tiger Apparitions Array would be activated, and tens of thousands of ferocious souls of lion-type demon beasts would be entangled with the invading Cultivators. After all, the high-level Cultivators were very fast. The Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators could easily reach the speed of sound.
As long as he was stalled by the ferocious souls of the lion-type demon beasts, chances were that the firepower of hundreds of Crouching Tiger Cannons and Gold Crow Crossbows would rain down upon him. Even a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator would be badly burned by the bombardment.
It was needless to say that Roaring Tiger Hall boasted two Yuanying experts and ten Jin Dan experts in the first place. With the home advantage, together with the defense arrays, barriers, and almost a hundred giant cannons, it was almost an iron egg that could not be chewed, boiled, or ground.
No wonder the people of Roaring Tiger Hall were so arrogant that they dared not show any respect to the 'leader of the Great Qian Cultivators'.
Li Yao noticed that, not far away from the Black Tiger Fortress of Roaring Tiger Hall, a glamorous warship was floating in midair.
The floating warship was more than a hundred meters long. Sails made of rainbow wings were hanging from the warship. Two rows of complicated floating rune arrays had been carved at the bottom of the warship. Twelve objects that looked like oars were protruding out of the warship. Every time the oars were stirred, colorful ripples would spread out in the air.
The warship was filled with the air of antiques. It was the largest flying boat that could be produced in the Ancient Sages Sector. It was also the oldest prototype of a crystal warship in the modern Cultivation civilization.
The flag of the Grand Mystery Sect was hanging on the flying boat. It was the mobile headquarters of the Cultivators who had come to reinforce the southeast.
Around the flying boat, a lot of enormous cranes, eagles, griffins, and tigers were also present.
A lot of Cultivators were sitting cross-legged on the flying boat, showing off their brilliance as they confronted the Cultivators in Roaring Tiger City.
Inside Roaring Tiger City, the Tiger Apparitions Array had been activated to the maximum. Roars of dragons and tigers were truly echoing nonstop. They lunged at the flying boat without hiding their hostility and crashed into the spiritual shield of the flying boat. Even the flag of the Grand Mystery Sect in midair was shaking uncontrollably.
The two parties were at an impasse. The participation of the high-level Cultivators of the Purple Pole Sword Sect, especially the arrival of Li Yao, Yan Liren, and Master Bitter Cicada, boosted the morale of the Grand Mystery Sect's side.
Li Yao observed coldly, but he felt that they were just a bunch of mobsters.
The situation right now was similar to the situation three months ago when the major sects suppressed the Purple Pole Sword Sect.
In terms of capability on the surface, there were at least twenty Yuanying experts on the side. Naturally, they were at an advantage.
However, the Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators who belonged to different sects were not interested in disaster relief at all. They were only there for the sake of Qi Zhongdao in the first place and to see if they could get any benefits by the way.
Besides, the attack was unjustified. Roaring Tiger Hall was a righteous sect after all, and they had never done anything wrong. Why would they attack their headquarters?
If they were to attack, who would be the first to fight the Tiger Apparitions Array and the hundred Crouching Tiger Cannons?
Almost twenty Yuanying experts who belonged to different sects and had their own plans would charge forward together.
It was pure fantasy.
The Yuanying experts of the Ancient Sages Sector cherished their feathers more than anything else. Few of them were as idiotic as Master Bitter Cicada.
Most of the Yuanying experts dreamed of breaking into the Divinity Transformation Stage. They cherished their body and soul so much that they had to be very careful even when they were cutting their fingernails.
They did not hate Roaring Tiger Hall, and they did not have enough benefits. Why would they attack such a solid headquarters of Roaring Tiger Hall?
Li Yao observed the disdain of every Yuanying expert of the major sects. He then looked at Dan Fengzi.
Dan Fengzi stepped forward without batting an eyelid and pulled his sleeve softly. "Calm down, Elder Spiritual Vulture. You must calm down. This is not a place where you can show off in the Dragon Spring Meeting. The two Yuanying experts of Roaring Tiger Hall are truly reckless. If they are truly infuriated and decide to heavily wound one or two of them at the cost of their own lives, wouldn't anyone be asking for trouble by running into them?
We are all living in the world of Cultivators, and we see each other all the time. Peace is the most important thing. Peace is the most important thing. "
Not just Dan Fengzi, the Yuanying experts and Jin Dan experts of the major sects were whispering to each other and warning each other, too. None of them were willing to be the first to stand out.
Shua! Shua!
Shua! Hundreds of eyes were focused on Qi Zhongdao, the 'leader of the Great Qian Cultivators'.
Their meaning was obvious. Brother, just rest assured. Hundreds of your subordinates will protect you from behind. Should anything go wrong, a thousand pieces of magical equipment will be thrown over and razed Roaring Tiger City to the ground.
Qi Zhongdao's face was so dark that his facial organs were almost indistinguishable. Without saying anything, he stomped on the ground and soared to the sky above Roaring Tiger City, before he shouted, "Where is the leader of Roaring Tiger Hall? Please come and have a talk with me."
"Forgive me, Master Righteous One. Forgive me, fellow Cultivators."
On the top of the Black Tiger Fortress, among the dense Crouching Tiger Cannons and Gold Crow Ballistae, a brawny man with a golden beard crawled out. He cupped his hands at the sky and said emotionlessly, "The day before yesterday, my father resisted the natural disaster with all his strength. Although the place was safe, he was heavily wounded and almost mentally deranged. Right now, he is in seclusion to rest and cannot welcome Master Righteous One and the fellow Cultivators here. I am truly ashamed that I failed to welcome you."
It's the fourth watch again, ho ho, Old Niu is going all out.
