"The blood moon is here!"
When the sky changed, Gu Zheng, who had been waiting for a long time, said slowly.
At this moment, a blood moon hung in the sky again. This time, it was obviously twice as big as the previous one. Especially now, they could see the blood patterns on it clearly.
Even Gu Zheng, who had sharp eyes, saw some damage at the corners. However, it was easy to miss because it was covered by the blood light.
"It was originally damaged. No wonder it was not affected at the periphery." Gu Zheng thought thoughtfully.
As the blood moon rose, the thick blood fog in the surroundings became even brighter. However, the visibility strangely increased. At the same time, a faint ghost Qi appeared in the air.
Almost at the same time, Gu Zheng and Xing Cai held their breaths and swallowed another red fruit to resist the blood poison in the air.
No matter how far or close they were, different kinds of roars could be heard. Behind them, some of the ghosts that had gone out climbed over the wall again and joined in.
With the ghost Qi barrier that Duan Chen had specially strengthened for them, as long as they were not so unlucky as to be hit by the ghosts, those ghosts that had lost their minds would definitely not notice them when they passed by.
After a while, when the ghosts nearby rushed into the middle and there were almost no more ghosts nearby, the two of them lay on the mountain wall and looked inside.
The ghosts from before were now gathered together as if someone was commanding them. They lined up in a square made of white jade in front of them.
Compared to before, Gu Zheng saw that their bodies seemed to have grown bigger. The blood fog in the air continuously entered their bodies. Their excited and bloodthirsty eyes emitted a red light.
When Gu Zheng stuck his head out to take a look, a majestic Ghost General wearing black armor and a black cloak appeared in the air. He seemed to be patrolling his own army. His entire body was wrapped in armor, and with the rising black gas around him, it was impossible to see his true appearance.
"Roar!"
He waved the crescent blade in his hand forward and roared at the same time.
The various ghosts below also roared and rushed toward the dojo in front of them.
Gu Zheng noticed that there were some special-looking ghosts in the crowd, but before Gu Zheng could take a closer look, they disappeared into the crowd.
The tattered runes outside the quiet Daoist temple suddenly lit up. A white curtain rose outside the Daoist temple. At the same time, mysterious runes jumped out and rushed toward the group of ghosts.
One of the runes seemed to have a mind of its own. After dodging the attack of a White Bone, it directly entered the opponent's body.
In the blink of an eye, the originally ferocious White Bone Ghost's aura plummeted, and its strength was not even half of its initial strength.
The other Wild Ghost, who was at the peak of Jin Xian and had three blue ghostly flames around his body, saw the talisman rushing towards him and swiped at it with his sharp claws. However, just as the claws were about to touch the talisman, the talisman flashed and dodged the attack. It wanted to take this opportunity to rush over, but it didn't expect another ghostly claw to swipe at it from behind at an unbelievable angle, hitting the talisman.
The talisman didn't have any power to resist and instantly turned into a ball of white light in the air and dissipated.
Looking around, less than a third of the ghosts had their bodies invaded by the talisman, and most of them were of low cultivation.
As for the Ghost General, he just stood there and looked forward. His eyes were looking at the Daoist temple, and he didn't have any intention of going forward, as if he was holding the rear.
The white runes only released one attack, and the ghosts had already rushed to the front of the white curtain in the air. They all stretched out their weapons and attacked it.
Although only the front row could hit the white curtain, there were still hundreds of them attacking at the same time.
Large ripples suddenly rose up, and the Daoist temple seemed to be hidden behind a layer of water, and the scene inside couldn't be seen clearly.
"Whoosh whoosh"
Suddenly, on the top floor of the Daoist temple, a thin white beam of light the size of a wrist rose up from the roof. It was like a brilliant firework in the air, and it actually exploded in the air. The broken white light condensed again under some strange power.
Then, a rain of white arrows shot down, quickly piercing down. Each arrow contained a strange aura, as if it wanted to pierce through everything below.
The entire sky was covered by the whistling sound of the arrow rain.
At this time, the Ghost General finally moved. He pointed the crescent blade in his hand forward, and a red light instantly shot out from the tip of the blade, rushing towards the ghosts in front of him.
That red light was originally only as thick as a finger, but as it moved forward in the air, the surrounding red mist was quickly sucked in. After crossing this short distance, it became as thick as an adult's arm.
When it reached the heads of the ghosts, the red light suddenly expanded, turning into a faint red mist that covered the heads of all the ghosts.
The ghosts below didn't attack the white mist in front of them anymore. They all raised their hands and roared at the sky. Waves of ghost aura constantly surged out from their bodies, entering the red mist above.
In almost an instant, with the addition of the ghosts below, the thin red barrier in front of them was so thick that they couldn't see what was inside. At this time, the rain of arrows in the sky also came crashing down at the same time.
Gu Zheng finally understood why the other party didn't spread out. After fighting for so long, they probably already understood all of the other party's moves. They just wanted to see who would be the first to give up.
The rain of arrows immediately fell on the red barrier below, and specks of white light constantly splashed from above. The countless arrows were like raindrops falling to the ground, only creating a small ripple before dispersing, completely blocked by the other party.
Even so, there were still some arrows that seemed to ignore the red barrier. Their figures flashed in the air, entering from the outside, and directly shooting into the bodies of the ghosts.
Those ghosts that were hit by the arrows continuously howled, but their bodies were unable to move. Ghost aura continuously emitted from their bodies, as if all of their Ghost aura had been sucked away.
Gu Zheng noticed that the ghosts that were hit by the arrows, even if they were at the peak of Jin Xian, in just two short breaths, they actually melted into a cloud of black mist, completely dying.
He couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement at the power of these arrows. Outside, he only thought that they were slightly stronger attacks, but it seemed that they were specifically used to suppress these ghosts.
"Bang!"
Just as the rain of arrows fell from the sky, the door of the hall opened without warning, and monsters emitting Ghost aura came out one by one.
Without exception, they all had yellow talismans on their foreheads, just like modern zombies with suppression talismans, which seemed to be controlling them.
However, their bodies were abnormally strong, naked, and blue veins popped out all over their bodies. As soon as they came out, they rushed towards the ghosts opposite them. Their arms were thicker than ordinary thighs, and their fingernails were suffused with black light, at the same time, they collided with the red barrier.
"Bang bang!"
With their heavy blows, the red barrier began to tremble, and it seemed that it couldn't hold on any longer.
At this time, the arrows in the sky also stopped, as if there were no more words to use to exhaust the other party. Even the white light that enveloped the hall also faded, only faintly flashing at the door, protecting the surroundings from being broken through by the other party.
At this time, with the disappearance of the arrows, the red barrier outside flashed, and was actually taken the initiative to tear off by the ghost general.
The ghosts inside also scattered, and only a small number of them stayed in place.
As for those zombie-like evil spirits, they also chased after the ghosts and scattered, basically entangling with the other party in a one versus two situation.
The strength of the zombies was average, most of them were only around the Jin Xian middle stage, and a small number of them were at the Jin Xian late stage. However, their bodies were incomparably strong, and even if the Jin Xian late stage ghosts hit them, they could only take a small piece of flesh.
Unfortunately, there were not many of them, only less than a hundred of them, and to the ghosts opposite, they could only block a portion of the other party.
However, as the zombies rushed out, one by one, monsters with a human body and a snake demon also rushed out of the hall. Although they were monsters, their bodies were surrounded by an overwhelming righteous aura.
They were wearing bright silver robes, and there was a light golden lotus crown on their heads. Their hands were constantly flickering with light, especially around them, there were four yellow talismans, which were floating around out of thin air, branded with blood-red runes, and a tyrannical aura was also emitted from them.
There were less than twenty of these talisman guards, and in front of them, there were ten zombie guards with aura at the peak of Jin Xian.
From this, it could be seen how high the status of these talisman guards was.
When these talisman guards came out, the ghosts that were rushing towards the Dao Hall all stopped, and their bodies emitted a large amount of ghostly aura. Even if they outnumbered the other party by more than ten times, they still had a fearful appearance, as if no one wanted to be the first to stand out.
The talisman guard was expressionless, and after standing in position, her pitch-black eyes looked in front of her. Then, she lightly raised her hand, and a talisman in front of her instantly flew in front of her.
She lightly pointed her hand in front of her, and a white light entered the talisman from her fingertip.
"Boom!"
A flame rose from the talisman, and in the blink of an eye, it condensed into a fireball, which rushed towards the ghosts below.
In the next moment, the flame on the fireball talisman retreated to the side, and at the same time, another talisman appeared in front of her. It also slightly pointed upwards, and a layer of green light appeared, condensing into a wind blade that rushed downwards.
At this time, ten fireballs and ten wind blades were already close to the ghosts. The ten talismans formed a group, and all of them shot out the same magic.
The originally fist-sized fireballs and palm-sized wind blades had already expanded by more than ten times as they flew through the air, and directly collided with the ghosts.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
A series of explosions rang out in the air, and before this wave of attacks was extinguished, the next wave of attacks came.
The four talismans corresponded to the four basic spells of fire, wind, water, and earth.
One after another, powerful spells forcibly blocked the hundreds of ghosts in the distance. Countless spells exploded, and the scene in front of them couldn't be seen clearly.
"Good chance!"
Gu Zheng's eyes lit up. This was a good opportunity for them. In such a chaotic battle, it was a good opportunity for them to sneak in.
Xing Cai also turned her head, and looked at Gu Zheng with shining eyes. It seemed that the two of them had the same idea.
Taking advantage of the fact that everyone's attention was on the middle of the battlefield, the two of them turned around, and the aura on their bodies changed greatly. A strange fluctuation rose from their bodies.
This was the aura they used to disguise themselves as ghosts. It was as if they were ghosts that came late, and were heading towards the center of the battlefield.
The two of them slowly flipped over the stone wall, and prepared to sneak in from the edge of the battlefield.
Although there was no one blocking them from the outside, it was too conspicuous. One had to know that the disguise they were wearing could be seen through by the other party with a little closer look, especially the general, who could see that something was wrong with them.
The two of them turned into ghosts and floated towards the center. Their eyes were also red, and it allowed them to smoothly approach the edge of the battlefield.
Things went surprisingly smoothly, and the ghosts didn't even look in their direction. The two of them secretly glanced at them, and then prepared to sneak forward along the periphery. In the past, this distance could be rushed over with a sudden attack.
But at this time, if they dared to do so, the row of guards would probably mercilessly attack them.
At this moment, four different ghosts suddenly rose from the surroundings of the training hall, as if they had been hiding in the surroundings.
This shocked Gu Zheng and the others. Their movements involuntarily stopped, and then they hid at the edge, carefully watching what the other party was doing.
With their appearance, the battlefield suddenly calmed down. The talisman guards seemed to have sensed their existence, and focused their attention, as if they were preparing for something.
The four ghosts were different from the others. Each of them was a beautiful young girl with beautiful white hair that danced behind her. Beneath their feet was an oval embroidery that looked like the embroidery of an unmarried young girl. There was a painting of mountains and rivers on the embroidery, and the river water within was the color of blood. It was a terrifying sight.
After the four Ghost Demons rose into the air from the four corners, a white ball rose from their hands.
The four balls resonated with each other in the air. The moment they appeared, a thin white line connected them in the middle. Then, a bright light shone and turned into four huge balls, releasing a huge amount of ghost energy in the air.
Like a thick fog, it surged towards the training hall, and in the blink of an eye, it covered the training hall.
The huge amount of fog flowed down the training hall, drowning everything in the surroundings.
Including Gu Zheng, they could only stay in place, drowned by the other party. The two of them were surrounded by darkness, and they could only see the two people in front of them.
However, the fog came and went quickly.
As a voice that Gu Zheng was familiar with rang out in the air, endless white light suddenly surged in the sky and spread out in all directions.
Under the invasion of this white light, all of the thick fog melted away like snow.
A figure that Gu Zheng recognized appeared in the sky. His body flashed with light, and he looked around arrogantly. In his hand was a small eight trigrams pendant, which was the source of the white light.
Seeing that their magic was broken, the four ghosts screamed in unison. Blue pendants suddenly appeared on the edge of their embroidery, and red fog flowed out from them, floating down.
Elder Gu did not care about the red mist at all. He threw the Eight Trigrams in his hand into the sky. Two black and white pearls suddenly fell from the top. Countless white and black Qi flowed out from the pearls, and the aura on the pearls became stronger and stronger.
Elder Gu pointed in the air, and two golden lights entered the two black and white pearls.
The surrounding white and black fog turned into puppets with sharp blades in their hands, and fell from the sky like dumplings.
When they fell, the surrounding gray fog had not dissipated, and some ghosts seemed to have not woken up from the gray fog, but they saw the puppets rushing towards them.
Two Spirit Guards flew out from each of the Spirit Guards below, bringing a zombie with them as they flew into the distance. They didn't even look at the four-horned demoness.
Soon, the sounds of battle came from afar, and the figures of the four ghosts in front of them became somewhat illusory in the air.
"It's actually a projection, no wonder I didn't find any trace of them." Xing Cai whispered.
"Be careful, let's move forward and wait for my command. Then, we'll directly defend and rush over." Gu Zheng looked around and immediately whispered.
However, they did not move forward, but each of them fought with one of Elder Gu's puppets. This was because the ghost general behind them had already rushed up, and the crescent blade in his hand flashed with a strange light as he rushed towards Elder Gu.
After doing all this, Elder Gu also went to meet the ghost general. This was not the first time they had fought, and he understood how terrifying the ghost general was.
The remaining spirit guards also began to accurately attack the ghosts in front of them, and the whole scene became chaotic again.
Gu Zheng carefully fought with the other party. The other party's strength was not bad, and there were many of them. They completely blocked the ghosts outside, and with the spirit talisman attacks outside, the ghosts were actually at a disadvantage.
This was completely out of Gu Zheng's expectations. He originally thought that the dojo was bitterly defending. Of course, he did not know that the sacrifice of one person in exchange for an opportunity to gain the upper hand.
These ghosts were not only difficult to deal with, but they were also not afraid of death. As long as they did not break the other party's vital parts, they could recover substantially with the replenishment of the surrounding blood mist.
Until now, a few ghosts had died, and the others had not died. Some of the seriously injured enemies retreated, and in a short while, they were alive and kicking again.
No wonder after so many years, the other party still had so many. It seemed that this dojo was also very strong, or perhaps Elder Gu was very strong. They had actually persisted from then until now.
Gu Zheng was paying attention to the other side from the corner of his eyes. Gui Jiang and Elder Gu had already started fighting. The two of them were exchanging blows at a higher altitude. It was hard to tell who had the upper hand, as if they were evenly matched.
"Young Master Gu, my head is so dizzy!"
Gu Zheng was about to continue moving forward with Xing Cai when Xing Cai suddenly said this, and her whole body leaned to the side in the next moment.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Zheng's figure hurriedly turned, and the other party's puppet was sent flying with a punch. He quickly held Xing Cai's shoulder and asked anxiously.
