When the strange red light appeared in the sky, the Wei Clan's army also saw the commotion. The experienced people in the army immediately made the accurate judgment that the incarnation of the Evil God had appeared.
At this time, they could either move forward and kill the incarnation of the Evil God in one fell swoop or retreat first to avoid the attack and find a countermeasure later.
Zhang Yu still did not make any suggestions. No matter what the Wei Clan's army chose, he could guarantee that the Wei Clan's army would not lose this time. Therefore, he only told everyone that there was a large number of Evil God's followers rushing in this direction.
Wei Lingying did not intend to cover for the Gu Clan's army. She said decisively, "Let's retreat first!"
The Wei Clan's army was small in number, but because of this, they retreated very quickly. Moreover, they had only traveled a little more than a hundred miles into the swamp and did not go too deep. Therefore, they retreated to the edge of the swamp in a short while.
However, when they saw that they had returned to the plains at the edge of the swamp, a red light suddenly lit up in the swamp. Then, it turned into an illusory shadow and flew straight towards them. In just a few breaths, it had already caught up with them.
Everyone immediately felt an evil and obscure aura rush into their hearts. This feeling made them feel extremely nauseous. They felt dizzy and wanted to vomit. However, their throats and chests seemed to be blocked, making it difficult for them to breathe. These two feelings mixed together made them feel extremely uncomfortable.
Zhang Yu stood in mid-air and said, "General Wei, you guys go first."
Wei Lingying agreed. As the leader of the army, she knew that this was not the time to be bashful, and there was no room for hesitation.
Since Zhang Yu had taken the initiative to bring up the rear, they should choose to believe in him and not cause trouble for him.
Under her command, the soldiers did not stop at all. Instead, they continued to retreat at an even faster speed.
Zhang Yu turned around and floated in mid-air. Looking at the red light, he flicked his sleeve and the Cicada Sword turned into a sword light and flew up. Then, like a flash of lightning, it slashed down from the sky!
There seemed to be a muffled sound of thunder in the sky. The ball of red light collapsed in an instant, and something seemed to fall down. The sword light spun in the sky and flew back. With a clang, it fell back into his scabbard.
Wei Lingying and the others turned around to look, only to see a flash of light before the red light disappeared. They had no idea what was going on.
After waiting for a while outside the swamp, they saw Zhang Yu floating over. They could not help but welcome him together. Wei Lingying asked, "Xuanxiu, where is the incarnation of the Evil God?"
Zhang Yu raised his hand and threw down a coarse wooden statue that had turned into charcoal. He said indifferently, "It's here."
He bent down and picked it up. He was slightly excited and said, "General, this is the object of possession of the incarnation of the Evil God. Just this object alone is enough for our military evaluation!" As he said this, he turned to Zhang Yu and bowed. He said, "Xuanxiu, you are really a great cultivator!"
When Xuanxiu, whose surname was Cheng, was still in the Wei Army, he was good at the art of illusion. He was able to cover up their army of thousands and confuse the enemy. This ability was very powerful. Many powerful enemies fell under this trick. It was only later that they met an opponent who could restrain them that they were defeated.
It was just that he had never seen such a straightforward Dou Zhan. It was just a face-to-face encounter, and the invading enemy was killed.
He could sense that Zhang Xuanxiu wasn't a simple person. The Wei Clan's army was really lucky to be able to invite him.
At this time, one of the five leaders asked Wei Lingying eagerly, "General, the incarnation of the Evil God has been killed by Xuanxiu. What should we do?"
Wei Lingying was also very excited. She looked at Zhang Yu's figure in the sky and felt that inviting him was the best thing she had done in her life.
However, as a general, she knew how to control her emotions at this critical moment. She tried her best to calm herself down. She looked back at the swamp and then looked up at the sky. She said, "The Gu Clan has made a mess in the swamp. Now that it is getting late, it is not suitable for us to move. Everyone, please rest outside for the night. We will decide on the situation tomorrow morning."
No one had any objections to this. After all, they now had proof that they had killed the incarnation of the Evil God. In fact, they had already answered to the Military Department. If the Gu Clan's army could wipe out those tribes overnight, it would save them a lot of effort.
After all, they had joined the mercenary army only to make a living. They did not yearn for this kind of life. If they could do it while lying down, who would not be willing?
On the other side, the old Taoist had been staring in a certain direction. However, at this time, he suddenly made a sound of surprise.
A young disciple following behind him came up and asked, "Teacher, what is it?"
The old Taoist looked into the distance and said, "Is that where the other mercenary army is?"
The disciple said, "Yes, teacher."
The old Taoist said, "It seems that the mercenary army over there has some skills. I am afraid that the incarnation of the Evil God has been destroyed by them."
The disciple was shocked and said, "Then what should we do?"
The old Taoist snorted and said, "What does it matter? It is just an incarnation of the Evil God. It is better to let them destroy it. This way, it will be easier to lure the true spirit of the Evil God. Go and tell Shaolang to continue using the Xuan Weapon to force the Evil God to appear as soon as possible. "
The disciple nodded and went to pass the message.
After receiving the message from the disciple, Gu Shaolang said that he understood. He personally led 50 of his trusted followers to the front and ordered the rest of the army to suppress the believers of the Evil God.
In reality, the swamp was vast, and he was not willing to disperse his army. Therefore, there were not many tribes of believers of the Evil God that were attacked.
However, the commotion he caused was not small. When a Xuan Weapon landed, the area within a radius of more than ten miles would be turned into a barren land. Both humans and animals would die. Even the priests of the Evil God who had miraculous powers could not resist.
It seemed that the Gu Family army did not have any intention of stopping. It looked like they wanted to destroy all the tribes. This caused most of the tribes to be terrified and flee into the depths of the swamp.
At this moment, the few large tribes in the depths of the swamp also felt a serious threat. They had no choice but to start the ritual to summon the true spirit of the Evil God.
The Evil God in the outer layer was different from the EsGod in the inner layer. They did not need the sacrifice of spiritual beings. Their true bodies were hidden in the depths of the outer layer, and there would be a part of their consciousness and power outside. If it was through the ritual of the deities and believers, they could channel this power and make it descend on the object of sustenance.
If the power that descended was weak, it would at most form an incarnation of the Evil God. Even if it was destroyed, it would not take long to recover.
However, if the power that descended was strong enough, and even the consciousness of the Evil God poured in, then it could be called a true spirit. It could exist in the world for a very long time. If this part of the power was destroyed, it would cause a certain amount of damage to the true body.
As the ritual continued, in the latter half of the night, the entire sky suddenly turned scarlet. Then, an incomparably oppressive aura spread out.
The old Daoist stood in the sky and had been paying attention to the changes in the aura around him. At this moment, his white eyebrows moved, and a bright light appeared in his eyes. He looked straight at a certain place and said, "Good, very good."
Light flashed on his body, and a Primordial Spirit Projection had already stepped out. Then, it suddenly flew into the distance.
On the ground, the soldiers of the Gu Clan who were originally advancing felt their vision blur. They discovered that the moon on the side of the sky seemed to have become a huge ferocious eye, looking at them with malice.
At the same time, the swamp in front of them seemed to be slowly crawling. The vegetation on the swamp also seemed to have become the limbs of the crawling insects, wriggling there.
Many people felt as if their internal organs were being stirred up. They lay on the ground in extreme pain and began to vomit non-stop. Some of the weaker ones even vomited out stinky things mixed with hair and mud. There were even slippery little bugs jumping about in their vomit.
Gu Shaolang's face was also slightly pale. However, he quickly swallowed a pill and said to the people around him, "Get someone to prepare the pills in advance and distribute them."
After the pills were distributed, the soldiers felt a little better. However, they were also secretly shocked. Someone said, "Shaolang, I'm afraid that the true spirit of the Evil God has arrived."
Gu Shaolang looked ahead and said, "The true spirit of the Evil God? Just in time. "
This time, not only did he want to clear out the entire tribe of the Evil God in the swamp, but he also set the true spirit of the Evil God as his target. As long as the true spirit of the Evil God was destroyed, the Gu Clan Mercenary Army would definitely be valued by the military department. Then, his great plan could be carried out.
However, the true spirit of the Evil God had such great power even before it appeared. It seemed that it would not be so easy to deal with.
He looked at the figure of the old Daoist in the sky and thought to himself, "With Master Chen here, there shouldn't be any problems."
At the same time, in the camp of the Wei Clan Mercenary Army, everyone felt an even more ferocious aura enveloping them.
Even though they were not in the swamp, they could not help but feel a sense of irritation and nausea. However, since they were here to deal with the tribe of believers of the Evil God, they were naturally prepared. After taking some pills that calmed the mind, everyone felt a little better.
Soldier Lin looked for Wei Lingying with a serious expression and said, "General, something is wrong. I have seen this situation before. It seems that the true spirit of the Evil God has been drawn out."
Wei Lingying was shocked, "The true spirit of the Evil God?"
She had followed the Wei Clan Mercenary Army everywhere to fight since she was 14 years old. She knew very well how powerful the true spirit of the Evil God was. Even if the Wei Clan Mercenary Army was at their peak, they would not have the confidence to fight it head-on.
Soldier Lin said, "General, what should we do next? Now, we still need to ask Xuanxiu for his opinion."
Wei Lingying nodded and said, "Uncle Lin, you are right."
She called Jin Xiaobai over and asked him to take care of the soldiers. Then, she hurried over to Zhang Yu. She cupped her fists and said, "Xuanxiu, Uncle Lin suspects that the strange change just now was due to the true spirit of the Evil God descending. May I ask Xuanxiu what we should do now?"
Zhang Yu looked into the distance and said, "The Gu Clan Mercenary Army is heading towards the location of the Evil God. It seems that they are prepared for this. Wait for a while and we will know the result."
Wei Lingying lowered her head and thought for a while. She said worriedly, "If they fail …"
Zhang Yu said indifferently, "If they fail, then I will take care of them."
