"All of you must die!"
The Golden Corpse King's voice was as ear-piercing as metal scraping against each other. He stretched out a hand and grabbed at Mu Qingyun, whose aura was fluctuating after being pushed back by him. His sharp fingernails glowed with a cold luster.
No one would doubt that these fingernails alone were comparable to the top artifacts of the Nine Provinces' cultivation world!
He did not know what the humans in front of him had done, nor did he know the mysteries of the Pillar of Heaven's Secrets, but he could clearly sense the changes in the earth veins of the Turbid Heaven Temple's secret realm. As one of the Four Great Temples, the Turbid Heaven Temple had been the largest corpse-nurturing ground for the Corpse Race since a thousand years ago. It had also nurtured countless outstanding clansmen for the Corpse Race. The Turbid Heaven Temple's secret realm had contributed greatly to the massive Corpse Race army under Shi Sha's command.
However, this place, which was like a holy land to the Corpse Race, had withered its spirit veins and thin Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi.
How could Shi Sha tolerate this?
He had seen the strength of the Nine Provinces Team and knew how powerful they were. Thus, he hid among the Corpse Race and waited for an opportunity to attack. Even if he did not succeed, he would still be able to break through the Nine Provinces Team's formation.
As long as he killed one or two of them, then he had the confidence to take down all of them. The Corpse Race army that was like a tide was not to be trifled with. No matter how strong these humans were, they could forget about causing any waves!
Facing this attack, Mu Qingyun had nowhere to retreat. He hurriedly activated his flying sword. Sword lights sliced through the void and swept toward Shi Sha. Shi Sha's body trembled violently and left sword wounds on his body. However, Shi Sha's body was extremely tough. Although the sword wounds were fine, they could not harm his core. Sword cultivators were known for their killing, let alone a top sword cultivator like Mu Qingyun. However, even his methods could not deal any real damage to Shi Sha. It was clear how tough Shi Sha's body was.
The aura of death approached. At this critical moment, a tower-like figure charged out and stood between Mu Qingyun and Shi Sha.
Yang Yuan!
His burly figure was like an indestructible barrier. At this critical moment, he gave people a great sense of security. His blood energy and spirit energy surged and intertwined. He held a large artifact shield in front of him.
He had brazenly blocked Hu Sha's fatal strike!
At this moment, Mu Qingyun finally heaved a sigh of relief. At that instant just now, he'd practically thought he was dead for sure!
However, as soon as they relaxed, a strange sound rang out. Mu Qingyun and Yang Yuan's expressions changed at the same time.
Crack, crack, crack … The Dharma Artifact shield in front of Yang Yuan let out a hard sound. The Corpse Fiend's sharp fingers had actually pierced five holes in the shield. Its nails, which glowed with a cold light, pierced through the shield's barrier and entered Yang Yuan's field of vision.
"Impossible!" Yang Yuan's pupils dilated, his eyes filled with disbelief. There was no time for him to be shocked. The luster on the shield quickly dimmed, and it lost most of its spirituality. The zombie's large hand went straight through the shield, and its sharp nails pierced into Yang Yuan's chest.
As a body cultivator, Yang Yuan's tempered body was strong enough to withstand the spells of a spell cultivator of the same level. However, the body that he was so proud of was now as fragile as paper. He felt a stabbing pain coming from his chest. He was afraid that in the next moment, his heart would be pierced by the zombie's sharp nails and he would die on the spot.
A figure that seemed to be wrapped in flames suddenly shot out from beside him, and as it spun in the air.
The blade light, as bright as a star, slashed directly at the zombie's neck! Before the full power of this saber strike could be unleashed, the zombie's golden eyes narrowed slightly. He clearly felt a threat from this saber strike. This blade might not take his life, but if he was hit by it, he would not have a good time.
So when the blade slashed out, the zombie retreated without any hesitation, instantly disappearing into the huge crowd of zombies. His presence was retracted, and he disappeared without a trace. The figure that appeared in the air landed in front of Yang Yuan. It was Lu Ye. She had used the momentum to kill a group of zombies in front of her.
Yang Yuan staggered slightly, and his entire body was cold. If Lu Ye had made a move just now, he would definitely be dead now.
Only five breaths of time had passed since Ying Wuji was in danger, and the Nine States Team had rushed to help each other, until the zombie retreated.
However, in these five breaths of time, several people present were in danger of dying.
There were obvious traces of blood flowing from the corner of Lu Ye's mouth. The zombie's punch was not easy to take.
Yang Yuan's presence also became unstable. Although the zombie did not take his life, it had directly injured him, and at the same time, injected the original corpse poison into his body. Fortunately, before they came, everyone had received a special elixir from Hua Ci. Hua Ci herself could cure the original corpse poison, but the elixir she refined was not so powerful. Its effect was only to suppress the outbreak of the original corpse poison, giving the cultivator who had been poisoned more time to seek treatment.
Feeling the changes in his body, Yang Yuan hurriedly took out the elixir and swallowed it. The formation reassembled, and the eight people supported each other. However, they were no longer as smooth as before. It was not because of anything else, but because when the gap was opened in the formation of the team, everyone was injured. Moreover, after such a long and intense battle, everyone's strength was affected. "Lu Yiye!" As the only magic cultivator in the team, Lu Qing stood in the safest position. However, among the eight of them, he had killed the most corpses. In this aspect, not even Lu Ye could compare.
The destructive power of such a powerful large-scale spell technique was simply too terrifying in this environment.
"I'm afraid we're going to die here. What do you think?" He had no intention of blaming Lu Ye. Before they set out, everyone had known that this would be dangerous, but they had not expected the situation to be so bad.
Following Lu Ye was his personal choice, and Lu Qing had no intention of holding Lu Ye responsible for the various consequences that would arise.
They were all dragons and phoenixes among this generation of Nine Provinces cultivators, so they still had this bit of responsibility and awareness. However, in the face of death, he could not help but find something to say.
"I don't dare to think about anything!"
Lu Ye continuously swung his saber, the fiery-red saber light flickering. With each slash, a large number of corpses fell to the ground. The corpses in front of them piled up like a mountain, but there was still an endless stream of corpses swarming over.
"How unlucky, to have to die together with you!" Lu Qing let out a long sigh.
"Hahaha, great, great!" Feng Rulie, on the other hand, seemed to have gone mad. If it wasn't for Giant Armor pulling him back, this person would probably have charged out.
"Lu Yiye, I've actually tolerated you for a long time!" The two scimitars in Ying Wu Ji's hands danced as he killed the Corpse Race while shouting and venting. It was as if he wouldn't have the chance to speak if he didn't. "You think you can order others around just because you are strong? Who do you think you are? If not for the fact that I can't beat you, I would have beaten you until you kneel on the ground and call me grandpa! " Lu Qing laughed. "Strength is respected among cultivators. Ying Wuji, you're taking things too hard!"
"I haven't been alone with him before, but if you were alone with him for a while, you would know how hateful this guy is. He orders others to do all the dirty work while he hides in the back to enjoy his life. I, Ying Wuji, am also a dragon among men, but this guy doesn't take others seriously. How hateful, how hateful!"
Lu Qing leisurely said, "Be careful, he'll cut you right now."
Ying Wuji straightened his neck. "What's there to be afraid of? It's just a matter of dying sooner or later!" "You've got guts!" Lu Qing praised Ying Wuji.
Ying Wuji sighed again. "Lu Yiye, although your character isn't that good, you've saved me a few times. I'm afraid I won't be able to repay you for saving my life. I'll repay you in my next life when I have the chance."
"Be an ox or a horse?" Lu Qing teased.
"In his dreams. Maybe I'll be the one to save his life in the next life!" Ying Wuji clearly had some wild thoughts about his next life.
"If you have the energy to talk, why don't you kill more corpses?" Lan Ziyi couldn't listen anymore. Although the group was still fighting bravely and resisting with difficulty, what was with this strange atmosphere?
At this moment, a sudden change occurred.
Originally, when the corpses were killed, they were killed.
But at this moment, when the group killed the corpses, specks of light floated out of the corpses like fireflies, and then fell on the back of the group's hands like chasing the stars and the moon. The situation on Lu Qing's side was the most obvious. A large number of specks of light floated over from all directions, imprinted on the back of his hand and disappeared. Next was Lu Ye.
The eight people couldn't help but be stunned.
This was …
Then, everyone reacted and hurriedly immersed their minds to sense their own battlefield imprints.
In the next moment, the eight people were overjoyed.
The battlefield imprints that had been unresponsive since they came to the Wushuang Continent finally recovered at this moment. The reason why there was no response before was obviously because this place was beyond the range of the Nine Regions' Tianji. The Wushuang Continent was not part of the Nine Regions, but belonged to another domain that had nothing to do with the Nine Regions, so the battlefield imprints were useless.
At this moment, the battlefield imprints reacted, which undoubtedly meant one thing. The Nine Regions' Tianji had opened a connection with the Wushuang Continent!
This made everyone realize one thing.
Lu Ye's previous guess was correct. After the four sealed Tianji Pillars were placed in the four great mystery realms, they could absorb the power of the ley lines and Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth in the mystery realms, allowing the Nine Regions to accurately pinpoint the location of the Wushuang Continent, and then establish the necessary connection. So the battlefield imprints reacted, and so when the group killed the corpses, specks of light would float into the imprints.
"Battle merit! This is battle merit! " Ying Wuji was excited because he discovered that those specks of light didn't bring battle merit, but more valuable battle merit!
In this short moment, he had already obtained hundreds of battle merit. Even for people like them, it was not easy to obtain battle merit. After all, the level of the Cloud River Tier was too low, and could only obtain battle merit in some special occasions. So when Ying Wuji discovered that he could obtain battle merit by killing the corpses, one could imagine the excitement in his heart. Then, he was annoyed. Before the battlefield imprints reacted, he had killed a large number of corpses, but did not obtain any battle merit.
