No one knew when, but a layer of gray mist rose from the Pan Di and shrouded the sky, causing the heaven and earth to darken.
The sunlight of dusk could no longer shine into the Pan Di. The sky was gray as if a part of the world was pressing down, causing people to feel endless oppression. The dense forest of the Pan Di was ghostly and extremely evil.
The trees in the Pan Di were originally very tall and lush. As a result, the light became even darker as if the night had fallen.
In the depths of the forest, there seemed to be spots of pale green ghost fire. There seemed to be a kind of creepy evil power that shrouded the entire Pan Di.
"Be careful! Be on guard! " The group of guards immediately cried out in alarm. Since that unlucky guard was suddenly pulled into the ground by the bone claw, everyone was inexplicably shocked and had goosebumps all over their bodies.
Uncle Zhong, who was dressed in a green gown, looked around with a dignified expression. His eyes emitted rays of light like the stars in the night. A powerful aura appeared from his body.
The ordinary old man, at this moment, became not ordinary anymore.
Meanwhile, the two maids, Xiao Cui and Xiao Yue, who were beside him, were already frightened by the sudden change of events. They tightly grasped the long swords in their hands and looked around anxiously.
Dozens of guards in embroidered clothes held weapons in their hands and formed a circle. They were nervous and vigilant as they slowly retreated from the path they came from. The guards of Haotian Business Group were well-trained. Even though they walked into such a dangerous place, they did not panic.
However, at this moment, the surrounding ground suddenly surged like a wave. A scene that shocked everyone to the extreme appeared. They saw a skeleton struggling to stand up from the bone fragments and soil. The white skeleton was still considered complete. What was inconceivable was that it was actually moving as if it was alive. It opened its two skeletal arms and pounced towards the crowd.
The white bone claws were like ten sharp bone spurs. If one was scratched by it, there would definitely be ten bloody holes in one's flesh and blood.
"Xiao Cui, Xiao Yue, take the people and retreat first." Uncle Zhong said in a deep voice. At the same time, he took a step forward. A violent force immediately penetrated into the ground from his feet. "Boom!" The ground suddenly shook, and the white skeleton that was pouncing towards them was immediately blown away, disintegrating into thousands of pieces in the air. The broken pieces of bone shot out in all directions.
The other skeletons that were breaking through the soil and crawling out of the ground were immediately shaken to pieces, or suppressed underground and crushed into pieces by the soil.
This secular world warrior showed his powerful side. Although he didn't grasp the true profound meaning of martial arts, Uncle Zhong had refined his muscles and bones. His strength was strong enough to be comparable to a practitioner in the Third Heavenly Layer.
Unfortunately, his cultivation would stop here for the rest of his life, and he would not be able to advance any further.
In a situation where he did not receive the true inheritance, this Uncle Zhong was actually able to train his body to such a strong state with such a simple Martial Technique. This was truly an anomaly.
After all, only those who had truly touched the threshold of "Martial Arts" could be called a true expert. For example, those guards only knew some fighting techniques. Once they were proficient in those techniques, they would be much stronger than ordinary people. However, in the eyes of a true expert, those techniques were merely showy but impractical, not up to standard.
Martial arts had declined, and the profound things had long been lost. The "Martial Arts" that were widely spread in the world only had the "form", and there was no "spirit" inside. No matter how refined the external moves were, they could only play the role of tempering the muscles and bones.
Uncle Zhong took a step forward and shattered more than ten skeletons that were crawling out of the ground. Then, he punched out, and the rolling fist strength surged forward. The sound of "Kacha" "Kacha" was incessant. More than ten skeletons that were rushing over were immediately swept away by the fist strength. They disintegrated and collapsed in the air, and a piece of white bone sprinkled down from the sky. The scene was extremely shocking.
"Roar!"
"Kill!"
"Fight!"
In an instant, dozens of guards who had formed a circle roared and brandished the weapons in their hands. They clashed with the white skeletons that were pouncing on them. A great battle broke out. Suddenly, the shadows of swords and knives flashed in the forest. The cold light reflected off the swords and knives flickered in the forest.
"Peng!" A cold light flashed, and a skeleton was chopped into two halves. The bones scattered on the ground.
"Bang!" One of the skulls was sent flying, and with a 'kacha' sound, it smashed into the sternum of a skeleton that was pouncing on him from behind, and got stuck in that skeleton's chest. Then, that skeleton was kicked to pieces.
Those skeletons weren't as terrifying and powerful as they had imagined. The fear in the hearts of the guards immediately subsided. Their spirits were greatly aroused. They shouted and brandished the weapons in their hands, and ruthlessly hacked those skeletons that were rushing over. Soon, a layer of broken bones and broken skulls was spread under everyone's feet.
Everyone slowly moved out of the forest. However, there were still skeletons crawling out from the ground. It seemed like there was a strange power that was summoning these skeletons from the ground.
In the forest, the shadows of ghosts collided. Not all of the skeletons crawled out from the ground. There were also some skeletons that walked out from the depths of the forest.
While the skeletons were walking, their bones made a "Kacha" "Kacha" sound, which made people's hair stand on end. Being surrounded by thousands of skeletons that were supposed to be buried in the yellow soil, there was no one who wouldn't be afraid.
"Swoosh!" Xiao Cui pierced the skull of a white skeleton in front of her with her sword. She said to Uncle Zhong with a pale face, "What should we do? These damn things seem to be endless!"
"Wow!" At this time, a tall guard's arm was grabbed by the sharp claws of a skeleton. He was dragged out of the circle.
"Help! I don't want to die! " The guard brandished the single blade in his hand in terror, chopping the skeleton that had dragged him into the crowd of skeletons. He wanted to rush back to the group, but he suddenly felt a pain in his chest. A bloody bony claw had pierced through his back.
Blood spurted out from his mouth, and his eyes instantly lost their luster. After that, the guard was pounced on by the skeletons that surged from all directions, and he was forcefully torn into pieces. The scene was extremely bloody.
All of this happened in a short moment. Even if everyone wanted to save him, it was already too late.
"Send a signal, gather the people nearby to help." Seeing this, Uncle Zhong's eyes couldn't help but turn red. This group of guards that followed Ling Luoyan was personally trained by him. Every one of them was an elite, and they weren't any weaker than the veterans that had survived hundreds of battles.
"Yes!" Servant Xiao Yue immediately took out a signal flare from her bosom, lit the fuse, and with a "Peng!" Sound, a fist-sized fireball immediately shot up into the sky, rushing towards the layer of hazy fog in the sky. With a loud "Peng!" sound, that fireball exploded in the sky tens of feet high.
A fireball that was like a brilliant firework appeared in the sky. Even though it was dusk and the sky was still bright, the light that the fireball emitted was extremely eye-catching, and it didn't extinguish for a long time.
In particular, that loud bang could be clearly heard within a radius of dozens of miles. The person who designed this kind of signal flare seemed to have considered the possibility of using it during the day. Even if the fireworks in the sky couldn't be seen, the sound could still be heard.
The sound traveled tens of miles, and when the people nearby heard it, they would also gather in the direction of the sound.
