Now, the Nine Provinces Party was reunited once again!
Apart from Yang Yuan and Giant Armor who had just joined up, everyone else already knew about the mission, so there was no need to go into detail.
The Wind and Cloud brothers wanted to help, but they also knew that they were not strong enough. If they really followed Lu Ye and the others, they would only be a burden. By then, let alone help, it would already be great if they did not become a burden.
"I wish you all a smooth journey ahead!" The Wind and Cloud brothers clasped their fists and bowed solemnly.
Lu Ye nodded. "Go on. “
"Take care!" The Wind and Cloud brothers said before rushing into the air.
Lu Ye turned around and gazed in the direction of the Heavenly Palace. He said gently, "No one's going to back down at a time like this, right? “
Feng Rulie sneered. "What are you saying? Just kill them! “
Lu Qing also said, "Lu Yiye, you may be strong, but don't underestimate the others. I might not be able to defeat you, but killing Corpses is no problem."
"Very good!" Lu Ye nodded. "Then … set off! “
With that, he turned into a streak of fiery red light and shot off in the direction of the Heavenly Palace. The others all followed closely behind him.
At the same time, many Corpses were scattered around within fifty kilometers of the Heavenly Palace. They either nurtured corpses in slumber or cultivated by themselves. Among them, a steel-skinned zombie stood out the most, and his aura was the most vigorous.
He was one of the three Corpse Commanders under the Corpse Fiend, the Iron Corpse Commander Zhou Yun.
Minimization
The Corpses were also converted from humans. Zhou Yun came from a human stronghold. He did not achieve much as a human, and his cultivation was not particularly high either. However, after being converted into a Corpse, he skyrocketed, becoming one of the three Corpse Commanders in a single stroke. He was also the nightmare of the humans across the Peerless Continent in the past few centuries.
Over a dozen days ago, a human had barged into the secret realm of the Heavenly Palace, infuriating the Corpse Fiend. As a result, the Heavenly Palace had been on extremely tight guard recently, just in case some audacious human disturbed the Golden Corpse King's slumber.
The three Corpse Commanders also patrolled the vicinity of the Heavenly Palace.
As a zombie, Zhou Yun was different from the rotting corpses that relied on zombie hordes. He was extremely powerful, so many Corpses would avoid him wherever he passed by.
Suddenly, he vaguely sensed something and turned his head to look in a certain direction. His dark yellow eyes revealed a look of bewilderment.
Soon, his pupils constricted slightly, because in the direction he was looking, there was an obvious golden light escaping, quickly outlining the shape of a door.
The entrance to the Secret Territory!
Zhou Yun's heart stirred, immediately understanding what this thing was.
Ever since the Heaven Transformation, the Corpse Race had seized many secret realms of the human race. However, there were only three secret realms that couldn't be found no matter how hard they tried. This was because these three secret realms were drifting in the void and didn't have a fixed location. When the doors were opened, they had to be extremely careful and wouldn't be easily discovered by the Corpse Race.
Who would've thought that a door would open in the vicinity of the Pure Heaven Temple!
Which Mystic Realm was this? How could they be so careless?
With no time to think, Zhou Yun had already charged towards the door.
No matter which Secret Realm it was, it was a heaven-sent opportunity for him. How could Zhou Yun miss out on something that he couldn't even find on a normal day when it was right in front of his eyes?
If he was still a human, Zhou Yun wouldn't act so rashly because even with his strength, if he really broke into the human race's secret realm alone, he wouldn't have a good ending.
However, after turning into a Corpse Race, his intelligence seemed to be less comprehensive. He only knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and didn't consider whether it would be dangerous or not.
In the blink of an eye, he rushed in front of the door.
However, before he could rush in, a slender jade palm stretched out from the door, and spiritual power surged in the palm.
Zhou Yun roared and punched out.
When the fist and the palm collided, a violent spiritual power burst out, and a spiritual aura visible to the naked eye surged.
Zhou Yun was sent tumbling hundreds of feet away.
It wasn't that his strength was inferior to the owner of the jade palm, but one came prepared, and the other rushed to meet the attack. Naturally, the former had the advantage.
After stabilizing his body, when he looked up again, there were several figures with powerful auras in front of the open door. The one in the lead was a woman dressed in men's clothes.
"Pang Huanyin! “
Zhou Yun instantly recognized the woman's identity. Although he had never seen her before, he had heard of her name.
He knew that the door that opened here belonged to the Ziwei Daoist Palace!
"Let's act according to the plan!" Pang Huanyin said and rushed toward Zhou Yun with Elder Xiao.
Back in the secret plane, the Holy Zhi Palace had seen Zhou Yun's figure using the Celestial Mirror. Who didn't know of the famous Iron Corpse Commander?
Therefore, Pang Huanyin immediately made a decision. She and Elder Xiao would hold him back while the others rushed out of the secret realm and formed a battle formation.
Only in this way could they stand firm and fight against the Corpse Race.
Their mission this time was very simple, which was to make as much noise as possible and attract the attention of the Corpse Race.
Only in this way could Lu Ye and the others have an easier time.
This was also the plan she and Lu Ye had long planned.
The expansion of the door did not stop. Instead, it continued to expand. From the golden door, cultivators rushed out and gathered in the teams that had been arranged beforehand. The small teams cooperated with each other and formed a huge battle formation.
A large number of Corpse Race members were alarmed and rushed toward them. The flames of war between the humans and the Corpse Race were instantly ignited!
Violent spiritual energy was in chaos. Colorful lights flashed, and the charging Corpse Race members were constantly knocked out of the air and fell to the ground.
Following closely behind the Dao Palace cultivators, a huge and ferocious Soaring Dragon Boat slowly emerged from the door and floated in the air.
After the first boat, there was a second one.
Then, there was a third!
The three Soaring Dragon Boats quickly formed a triangular formation in the air, protecting the Dao Palace cultivators.
The formation on the Soaring Dragon Boat buzzed. A huge beam of light, like a wandering thunder dragon, slammed into the densest group of Corpse Race members and opened up a vacuum in the midst of the Corpse Race members.
The buzzing continued, and a large number of Corpse Race members were turned into nothingness before they could even get close. The few that managed to get close were also mercilessly killed by the Dao Palace cultivators.
However, no one rejoiced because of their temporary gains, because as far as the eye could see, in the direction of Turbid Heaven Temple, countless Corpse Clansmen were swarming over like a tsunami.
Even a large number of Corpse Race members came out of the Heavenly Palace's secret realm.
Every Dao Palace cultivator was nervous, but their fighting spirit was high.
Everyone knew that the Dao Palace was going all out in this battle. If they won, the world would be at peace. If they lost, the Ziwei Dao Palace would cease to exist.
This was a battle that everyone was betting everything on!
On the other side of the battlefield, Pang Huanyin and Elder Xiao were working together to restrain the Iron Corpse Commander.
Although the Iron Corpse Commander was strong, Pang Huanyin was not to be trifled with. With Elder Xiao's help, it was not a problem for her to restrain the Iron Corpse Commander.
While fighting, Pang Huanyin even had the time to observe the situation.
Looking around, she did not see any cultivators from the other two secret realms. She could not help but feel a little disappointed.
After she decided to join forces with Lu Ye and the others, she had already sent a message to the other two secret realms, informing them of the Ziwei Dao Palace's operation today.
If the other two secret realms were interested, they would definitely lend a hand.
But now, it seemed that she should not have any hope for them. These two secret realms were rotten to the core.
However, just as she was thinking about this, she suddenly saw some figures of cultivators flying over from afar …
"That's …" Pang Huanyin was stunned. She thought that she had wrongly blamed the other two secret realms, but after careful observation, she realized that the cultivators who were still in the distance and were rushing over after hearing the commotion were not from the other two secret realms.
They were cultivators from the stronghold!
Teams with at least a few people and at most a dozen or twenty people were flying in from all directions. When she first saw them, there were not many people, but after a while, more and more figures came into view.
As they got closer, the teams gradually converged, like streams converging into a river. The river continued to grow, and then turned into a huge force that could not be ignored.
When the Dao Palace informed the other two secret realms of the operation today, they also revealed some information to some human strongholds. However, not many of them received the news from the Dao Palace cultivators.
But at this moment, many cultivators from the other strongholds were rushing in from all directions. Obviously, the news had been passed between the strongholds. They were all waiting here in advance, and when they saw the Dao Palace's attack, they hurriedly showed up to help.
There should be more cultivators from other strongholds on the way. Because of the lack of time, the cultivators from faraway strongholds could not make it here in time.
Pang Huanyin could not help but smile. She suddenly felt that the Dao Palace's persistence and everything they had done for so many years was meaningful.
In this world, although the other two secret realms were rotten, there were still more people who were worth saving!
"Palace Master!" Elder Xiao shouted, his voice filled with excitement.
Originally, the Dao Palace's strength was not enough to fight against the Undead Race. After all, there were only so many cultivators in the Dao Palace. Even if all of them were mobilized, what could they do?
With the three Soaring Dragon Boats as a defensive line, the Dao Palace cultivators could hold on for a while, but after a long time, they would not be able to hold on.
But now that they had so many reinforcements, things were much more promising.
"Okay." Pang Huanyin nodded and collected her thoughts. She looked at her opponent, and the murderous intent in her eyes almost materialized. She said coldly, "Kill!"
The battle was extremely intense from the beginning. The Soaring Dragon Boats let out earth-shattering roars without pause. All the Dao Palace cultivators adhered to their original plan and did not take the initiative to attack. Instead, they stood their ground and did their best to divert the attention of the Undead Race.
The Undead Race constantly attacked and were crushed to pieces.
From afar, it looked like a rain of corpses was falling from the sky. More and more corpses and rotting flesh piled up on the ground, and a nauseating smell filled the air.
But even with such heavy casualties, the Undead Race did not show any signs of weakness or retreat. They continued to charge at the Dao Palace's defensive line without fear of death. At one point, they were so close that they almost broke through the defensive line.
Fortunately, many cultivators from other strongholds came to help, and the situation was stabilized.
