Finally, the Ghostly Spirit Sword was taken out of Nie Ruo's body. During this process, Nie Ruo was in so much pain that his face was twisted beyond recognition.
Every time the Ghostly Spirit Sword was taken out, his body would be gnawed. Unless he had no other choice, Nie Ruo would never use the Ghostly Spirit Sword. It was a divine weapon that could hurt both the enemy and himself. It was too brutal.
The Ghostly Spirit Sword whistled as it flew out. Thirty ghostly spirits dragged the Ghostly Spirit Sword along with their hundred-meter-long tails. They drew thirty gray trails in the sky and stabbed toward the Silver City.
The ghostly spirits halted, releasing their power. Thirty-six flows of murderous aura bombarded the Ghostly Spirit Sword.
The Ghostly Spirit Sword was like a jet of light, thrusting directly into the silver city. All the barriers, barriers, and formations were pierced through.
Puff!
The rock-solid city walls were pierced by the Ghostly Spirit Sword, and the sword was exposed in the outer city.
Different from the Original Universe Restoring Pellet that could bombard the entire city, the Ghostly Spirit Sword aimed at one spot. Its power was concentrated at the tip of the sword, which could break anything. It easily pierced through the city wall.
Lin Meng and the others were shaken.
Nie Ruo screamed in pain, his face ashen.
Thirty-six ghostly spirits whizzed through the hole that the Ghostly Spirit Sword had created, and appeared in the outer city.
Thirty-six hazy shadows, each of them a hundred meters long, contained Yin Baleful, Blood Baleful, Evil Baleful, and other different kinds of baleful aura fluctuations. As soon as they arrived, they began to break through the outer city's restrictions and barriers.
ShiYan's face changed dramatically.
The Inner World Five Devils roared out of his Sea of Consciousness, turning into five Demogorgons that looked like real entities, fighting with the thirty-six ghostly spirits.
Sizzle Sizzle Sizzle!
The incorporeal tormented souls fought with the five Demon Gods. The Inner Sea Five Devils were obviously no match for them. They were bitten by the thirty-six tormented souls and were covered in wounds. Just like that, their vitality was damaged.
Shi Yan felt a pain in his heart. He hurried to use his soul to connect with the Inner World Five Devils, forcefully retrieving them into his Sea of Consciousness.
Thirty-six ghostly spirits were condensed from the baleful energy of the thirty-six Terminating Caves of the Devil Valley. They were also the evilest life forms in the world. After ten thousand years of evolution and accumulation, they were not existences that the Five Devils, who had formed not long ago, could contend against.
The tormented souls howled and released soul-piercing musical notes. They flew around the outer city and destroyed many barriers and restrictions.
The thirty-six ghostly spirits were like thirty-six fierce horses, dragging the Ghostly Spirit Sword with them.
If the ghostly spirits were unable to break through the Formations and Restrictions, they would combine their strength and concentrate it on the Ghostly Spirit Sword, using the Ghostly Spirit Sword's powerful attack to destroy the Formations and Restrictions.
This Ghostly Spirit Sword had been taken out from Nie Ruo's body. At this moment, it was showing its formidable destructive power, which had given Shi Yan a headache.
"Return!"
The Fantasy Sky Ring on Shi Yan's finger flashed. The Soul Gathering Pearl shot out, releasing a powerful soul suction force towards the thirty-six ghostly spirits.
As long as it was a soul without a physical body, it would be targeted by the Soul Gathering Pearl. Shi Yan had used the Soul Gathering Pearl every time, so he wanted to collect all the tormented souls.
Unfortunately, he had miscalculated this time.
The Soul Gathering Pearl did release a powerful suction force, which could affect the ghostly spirits without a physical body. However, the thirty-six ghostly spirits had fused with the Ghostly Spirit Sword.
Every time the Soul Gathering Pearl pulled a Tormented Spirit closer, the Tormented Spirit Sword would struggle fiercely, and the Soul Gathering Pearl's efforts would be in vain. The Tormented Spirits affected by the Soul Gathering Pearl would instantly move far away from the Soul Gathering Pearl, no longer being bound.
The thirty-six ghostly spirits were intangible, while the Ghostly Spirit Sword had a physical body. The two of them were one, complementing each other. It seemed like Shi Yan had predicted this situation, so he just needed to cooperate with it to reduce the Soul Gathering Pearl's effect to the minimum.
The Soul Gathering Pearl couldn't do anything. Although it could absorb the ghostly spirits, because of the existence of the Ghostly Spirit Sword, it couldn't do what it wanted.
The thirty-six tormented souls were still destroying the barriers and prohibitions in the city. At this rate, it would not take long before the prohibitions and barriers on the city walls were destroyed by the tormented souls.
Without the support of the barriers and formations, as long as Lin Meng urged the Original Universe Returning Cauldron one more time, the outer city would be smashed into smithereens.
Shi Yan finally recognized that it wasn't easy to deal with the seven ancient factions. Their foundation wasn't something a young man like him, who had just cultivated for dozens of years, could estimate. Thus, he didn't think that he would be defeated that fast, which made him lose his countermeasure.
At this moment, there were many low-realm warriors in the outer city who hadn't retreated. If the outer city was broken, they would be exposed, and they would be killed easily.
Li Feng Er and the others were in this group.
Shi Yan was so worried.
However, at this moment, Long Zhu, who was standing on the city wall, suddenly frowned.
The dragon-headed withered wooden staff that he had been holding suddenly stirred. A three-hundred-meter-long orange-red light pillar that seemed to be purely released by the dragon-headed withered wooden staff suddenly rushed into the center of the thirty-six tormented souls.
That orange-red light column shot out from the gray tail connecting the thirty-six ghostly spirits and the Ghostly Spirit Sword. It looked like a stick stuck on thirty-six gray ropes. However, Long Zhu twisted the staff, entangling the gray tail connecting the thirty-six ghostly spirits and the Ghostly Spirit Sword.
Long Zhu forcefully pulled the staff down. The withered dragon staff pounded on the city wall under his feet, causing a loud explosion.
The orange-red pillar of light seemed to be pulled by an invisible hand, and it also sank down.
The roaring thirty-six ghostly spirits and the floating Ghostly Spirit Sword were entangled by the orange-red light. They were suddenly pulled down, as if they were being dragged to the bottom of the outer city wall. There was a loud rumble.
ShiYan's expression also relaxed.
Long Zhu's strike was stronger than he had expected. He had subdued the evil divine weapon, the Ghostly Spirit Sword, shortly.
The orange-red beam of light released from his Dragon Head Withered Wood Staff had an unparalleled power, forcibly entangling the thirty-six ghostly spirits and the Ghostly Spirit Sword. The Ghostly Spirit Sword couldn't move, and couldn't do evil anymore.
The most mysterious old man in the Divine Great Land deserved his reputation. He was unreasonably strong!
"Why don't you evacuate your people?" Long Zhu shouted.
ShiYan suddenly woke up and hurriedly shouted, "All warriors below the Spirit Realm, retreat to the inner city!"
While he was talking, a brilliant passage appeared, extending to the deep area of the city center.
Li Feng Er and the low-realm warriors didn't hesitate, flying at their fastest speed towards the city center.
"Thank you!" Seeing his family safe, Shi Yan bent his body to greet them, expressing his sincere gratitude.
"No need to thank me. Little buddy, can my granddaughter enter the city center now?" Long Zhu smiled, his face indifferent. "I think I've proven my trustworthiness."
Shi Yan didn't say anything, nodding continually.
"Little Ying, you should go to the city center. It's too dangerous out there. Grandpa will find you later," Long Zhu rubbed Long Ying's hair, talking tenderly.
"Grandpa, be careful. Lin Meng and the others won't respect you anymore. They will use all of their powers to deal with you," said Long Ying worriedly.
"Don't worry. I know it. As I've taken action, I know it won't be good." Long Zhu smiled, not afraid at all.
Outside the city.
Nie Ruo seemed to get hit hard. He spurted out blood, his face grimaced. He screamed hoarsely. "Old Long! You took action! You helped them! "
The Ghostly Spirit Sword and his mind were connected. Each ghostly spirit was his eyes. He could see each move of Long Zhu. Of course, he knew who had hurt him.
Lin Meng, Qin Gu Chuan, and the masters of the seven ancient factions had the same grudge. They couldn't help but shout at Long Zhu on the city wall, their faces filled with rage.
"Old Long, you want to extinguish the flame of Human Clan! If you do that, you will be the sinner of Human Clan! " Yan Ke screamed ear-piercingly. The wrinkles on her old face twitched like a poisonous snake that got stepped on. She wanted to bite people.
"From now on, Long Zhu, you're no longer the sage of our Human Clan. You're the public enemy of our clan!" Lin Meng shouted resolutely, her face grimaced.
"The flame of Human Clan is extinguished. You have to bear the biggest responsibility!" Wen Di shouted.
Long Zhu stood on the city wall, his face indifferent. He looked at this area from a distance and said, "The flame of hope of Human Clan isn't on your side anymore. In my eyes, this city represents the future of our Human Clan. And you guys, you don't fit the trend of the times. You're too old-fashioned, and you're stubborn. You're destined to become the fuel of the flame of hope of Human Clan. "
Lin Meng, Qin Gu Chuan, and the others were enraged by Long Zhu's words.
"Old fart, you and I can't exist under the same sky!" Nie Ruo cursed indignantly. He didn't respect Long Zhu anymore. "I swear! I will crush your bones and scatter your ashes! "
"If you can do that, come here." Long Zhu smiled faintly. His figure moved away from the city wall, talking to Shi Yan solemnly. "Are you ready? Lin Meng's team's attack has just started. Soon, they will launch a more furious attack. How long can your city endure? "
"Can't endure for a long time," Shi Yan smiled tiredly.
At this moment, his acupuncture points were still frantically circulating the purifying energy. His Essence Qi had been consumed massively. If he couldn't replenish it in a short time, let alone the outer city, he couldn't even release the full power of the city.
"The outer city is just the first line of defense. The real battle will happen after they get in the city." Shi Yan contemplated for a while. "I need more time. Give me one hour. I'm sure I can defend."
"I'll give you one hour," Long Zhu contemplated for a while. "However, you have to promise me that as long as you're alive, you will treat my granddaughter well."
ShiYan was startled. His face became complicated as he said with a heavy voice, "Old Long, you …?"
If Long Zhu was safe and sound, with his cultivation base, who could hurt Long Ying? As he said so, it meant he wasn't so sure.
"Although I'm one level stronger than them, they have seven people. At least three divine treasures haven't been used yet." Long Zhu finally showed a bitter face, shaking his head. "But I will try my best to help you. One hour, I'm sure I can do it for you!"
Shi Yan was deeply touched, bowing to Long Zhu.
"Remember, the flame of the Human Clan can never be extinguished. No matter what happens to you in the future, you have to leave the bloodline inheritance for the Human Clan," shouted Long Zhu.
Shi Yan shivered, nodding heavily. "Old Long, don't worry. As long as I'm alive, the Human Clan will never be destroyed!"
"Okay, you go."
Long Zhu waved his hand, signaling him to leave. He reappeared outside the city, facing Lin Meng, Nie Ruo, Wen Di, and Yan Ke, the seven True God Realm warriors. His face was merciful, but his body was releasing crazy, bloodthirsty energy.
