The array was the most famous' Ocean Suppressing Array 'in the world of Cultivators.
It was said that there was a mother lode below the ground of East Peace County that extended thousands of kilometers into the ocean like a dragon king that suppressed the ocean. That was why the ocean near East Peace County was so tranquil and peaceful, making it a natural harbor.
The thirty-three sects in East Peace County worked together to collect tremendous crystals from the bottom of the ocean and hunt countless dragon-type demon beasts in the ocean. They melted the cores, bones, and blood of the demon beasts into liquids mixed with copper, mithril, and mother of gold and poured the liquids on the city wall of East Peace County, where runes were carved all over the city wall. That was how the array had been created.
When the Ocean Suppressing Array was fully activated, an enormous, blue light beam was formed outside of East Peace County, covering the city like a giant, translucent bowl.
The blue light was surging like tides, vaguely echoing the sound of surging tides, making the entire city feel that it was in the depths of the ocean.
It was the best barrier to block all kinds of ghosts.
Even so, the Cultivators of the thirty-three Cultivation sects in the city, as well as the Cultivators of the smaller sects and the unaffiliated Cultivators who had fled to East Peace County from various directions for shelter after the natural disaster, were still gloomy and grave, not daring to relax at all.
The previous two waves of attacks had proved that the array alone was not enough to resist the scourge of tens of thousands of ghouls.
Mother White Lotus was merely testing the waters. She did not send out her main force yet.
Most of the Cultivators from the southeast were gathered on the towers and near the city wall, ready to fight a final battle against the army of ghouls.
This was where their headquarters was. All the training resources were stored and could not be abandoned. There was no retreat for them.
Other than the Cultivators, there were also countless ordinary people in East Peace County.
Some of them were members of the vassal families that were affiliated with the Cultivation sects, some were tenants and merchants who lived near East Peace County and served the Cultivation sects, and some were refugees who had fled from various directions before and after the natural disaster.
The Cultivators of East Peace County were more sensible than those of Roaring Tiger City after all. They knew that if the disaster victims were turned away, they would certainly be furious and turn into powerful ghouls if they were frozen or starved to death in front of the closed gate of East Peace County. It would be a great trouble for Mother White Lotus.
Also, the thirty-three sects that were qualified to establish themselves in East Peace County were at the top of the food chain of the southeast sects in the first place. and controlled the most profitable industries and fields in the entire southeast.........................
................. of East East Peace County.. of East Peace County.... of East West Peace County..
... East Peace County was not a remote county that was far away from the emperor. An enormous' military city 'had been built in the city in the first place, where the elite generals who were loyal to the court were stationed.
At this moment, the thirty-three sects had opened their headquarters again. With tremendous military assets, they had armed the relatively strong men among the disaster victims and the ordinary people in the city and handed them over to the generals of the court for them to command. It was quite a decent operation. uu1;
"Ao."
The sky of the city was the most important battlefield. Almost a thousand Cultivators who were standing on flying swords, riding cranes, eagles, or simply riding on clouds were guarding the city. Also, the Cultivators from central plateaus who had come to reinforce the city on flying boats were standing in a row, too. They were not scared of the attack from the sky at all.
BOOM! BOOM!
Dull thunders were rumbling in the dark clouds. Tides were gradually rising on the surface of the ocean in the east. The spiritual waves in the air were suddenly disordered.
Deep inside the army of ghouls, the zigzagging trumpets gradually turned short and powerful, like nails being hammered into the depths of everybody's soul.
As hundreds of white lotuses made of smoke slowly floated forward, the overwhelming army of ghouls moved at the same time. Like a weird tide, they were drawing closer and closer to East Peace County.
Above and below the city tower, countless Cultivators were shouting to the army that was temporarily made of the civilians. "The army of ghouls is most brutal. Once the city is breached, men, women, old, and young will all be killed. Also, they will not be able to rest in peace after they die. They will be refined into ignorant ghosts and never be reincarnated.
"The Thunder Striking Legion of the court is on its way here as fast as lightning. Their vanguard has already taken the risk to break into the city. The main troops will arrive in a moment.
"The only way to survive is to defend the city and wait for the reinforcements of the court.
"The ghouls seem tricky to deal with, but they are not scary at all. A gentleman has righteousness in his heart, and a common man has true fire, too. As long as his righteousness and true fire are not extinguished, he will be able to drive the ghouls into nothingness."
It was not a lie.
The competition between human beings and ghouls was in fact a war of interference and counter-interference between magnetic waves.
If the vitality field of a living person was weak, it would be easy for them to be disturbed by the ghouls. They might even lose their wits and be killed.
But if the vitality field of a living person was strong, nothing was forbidden, and the ghouls would retreat.
Even if the ordinary people did not know how to train themselves, as long as they were healthy, angry, and fearless, their vitality field would naturally be strong, and they would not be disturbed by the ghouls easily.
If thousands of murderous soldiers gathered together, the magnetic fields would overlap and resonate. The most intense killing intent would soar to the sky, and the ghouls would not dare to approach them.
The army of the court stationed in East Peace County was second only to the Royal Guards who guarded the Divine Capital. They were the best of the best. Naturally, they had the fearless aura of having survived hundreds of battles. At the same time, they let out a thunderous roar, slightly dispersing the heavy aura of death around the city, giving people a glimmer of hope for victory. uu2;
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Right then, a series of weird explosions echoed from the flanks of the army of ghouls.
The ferocious skeletons, which were even larger than elephants and made of bones, had changed their shape at some point. They turned into catapults and threw out almost a hundred enormous skulls instantly.
Those skulls were not human beings but the skulls of demon beasts that were countless times larger than human beings. Like enormous rocks, they crashed into the Ocean Suppressing Array brutally after drawing short arcs in midair.
Shua!
Blue brilliance flashed on the Ocean Suppressing Array. Hundreds of enormous tides seemed to have been raised, smashing all the enormous skulls into smithereens.
Hu!
From the skulls that had been blown into smithereens, a lot of green ghostly fire spurted out. As if they were highly sticky, they flowed blatantly on the Ocean Suppressing Array and burned, interfering with and consuming the power of the array.
At this moment, the army of ghouls that had been repressed for a long time finally unleashed all their fury, hatred, brutality, and brutality.
Gloomy winds were blowing, and creepy screams congregated into an ocean of fear. Countless remaining souls crossed the ocean and drifted toward East Peace County.
In order to maintain the integrity of their magnetic field and their pheromones, the remaining souls were not drifting very fast. They were only slightly faster than the running speed of living people.
But they were not bound by gravity. Instead of attacking from the ground, they had been drifting in all directions since the very beginning, launching a three-dimensional attack on the ground and the air.
Chi! Chi! Chi!
Chi! Chi! The newly-dead remaining souls in the vanguard soon hit the blue barrier of the Ocean Suppressing Array. Like sparrows that had run into an electric net, they were immediately attracted to the barrier. Tremendous blue electric arcs pierced through their bodies and vaporized them instantly.
But they also left feeble ripples on the Ocean Suppressing Array with the last strength of their life.
When more and more newly-dead remaining souls were charging forward, and the feeble ripples that they caused when they collided like moths darting into a flame grew denser and denser, the feeble ripples finally turned into tiny gaps.
The newly dead remnant souls and the extremely cunning old ghosts behind them followed the cracks and rushed into the interior of the Sea-Calming Wave Listening Array. UU3
The defenders had long been prepared for that.
Pang! Pang! Pang!
None of the arrows had arrowheads. The front of the shaft was replaced by soft cloth bags.
Some of the cloth bags were stained with blood and were filled with the stimulating smell of blood. Some of the cloth bags were suspiciously yellowish-brown in color and had an overwhelming stench. There were also some cloth bags that were brushed with a layer of black ointment and had a strange fragrance.
What was odd was that the long arrows without arrowheads seemed to be even more effective than the arrows with arrowheads after piercing through the 'bodies' of the army of ghouls. It was often the case that a hole the size of a bowl would be left behind after one arrow.
The long arrows covered in black ointment, in particular, would explode the moment they touched the body of the army of ghouls. Red lotuses would erupt out of them and kill a large group of ghouls nearby.
The cloth bags were stained with the blood of black dogs, the excrement of human beings, and the blood of women.
According to the ancient people, the filthiest, dirtiest, and smelliest things could be used to eliminate evils.
According to modern people, the things that were secreted from the body contained intense vitality magnetic force, which could seriously interfere with or even destroy the magnetic field of the ghouls.
This was especially true for a woman's geranium blood, which symbolized the power of life reproduction. The vitality magnetic field contained within it was the most powerful. Even if an old ghost encountered it, he would have to flee in fear. Otherwise, he would be disturbed into a mess and even be completely annihilated.
As for the arrowheads that were covered in black ointment, they were produced by the Cultivation sects according to the secret arts of the deities. They were also designed to attack the ghouls.
Thousands of arrows were shot at the same time. They formed a crossfire in the sky and on the ground, driving all the remaining souls and ghosts away.
It was a pity that one could only poop once a day. The blood of black dogs, excrement, and urine stored in the city were too limited.
The blood of women was even more precious. Had they not known that the army of ghouls was going to attack the city, nobody would have stored the blood in advance. Besides, the blood could not be stored for long.
The marvelous weapons that the ordinary people used to deal with the army of ghouls were running out very soon.
