Squawk –
The Ghost Bats that were hunting in the sky flapped their wings and flew away.
"Let's go," Lu Qingshan said softly after confirming the situation.
The Tiger Team members nodded and followed Lu Qingshan out of the small business.
The scene they had just witnessed was just a tiny microcosm of the disaster.
If all the cultivators in Zhenjiang City were willing to protect the people, then even if the Zhenjiang Army was not there to protect Zhenjiang City, it would be impossible for Hades to collect enough blood essence to perform the Blood Pool Reincarnation in less than a day.
After all, Zhenjiang City was a prefectural city of the Da Xia Kingdom and was located in the hinterland of the human race.
As long as they could delay Hades's progress for a little while, the powerful cultivators of the human race would quickly receive the news and come to their aid, thus destroying Hades's plan.
However, such a simple condition turned out to be an impossible task.
Cultivators were the most selfish group of people. Even if they were of the same race, how many of them would be willing to protect the people who were unrelated to them?
Hades took advantage of this and used the Corpse Puppets to lure the Zhenjiang Army away.
Then he used the barrier created by Shura's Blood Transformation Formation to seal off Zhenjiang City's connection with the outside world, turning it into an isolated city.
By artificially creating this short time difference, he was able to pull chestnuts out of the fire in the human race's territory.
And according to the original trajectory of history, Hades's plan was a success in the end.
Even if he could not agree with Hades's position and was even disgusted with him, Lu Qingshan had to admit that Hades's methods and plans were unfathomable and worthy of praise.
But …
Lu Qingshan looked up at the sky.
Hades's decisiveness was far beyond his imagination. After realizing that things were going wrong, he immediately launched an attack and disrupted his plan.
But after coming to this world, he still gently flapped his wings a few times. He just did not know if this energy was enough to trigger a tornado that would destroy Hades's plan.
.....
Outside Zhenjiang City.
The three Golden Elixir Daoists of the Lu Clan gathered here. They hovered in the air and stared at the Iron Curtain that surrounded the city like a city wall.
"What did the other families say?" Lu Zhou rubbed his forehead and asked.
Lu Yuan's face was filled with resentment. "Apart from the Ke Clan, who immediately expressed their willingness to send people over, the other clans are all taking a wait-and-see attitude. It seems that they intend to just watch from the sidelines."
"Just the Ke Family?" Lu Zhou's face turned ugly.
Lu Bei didn't care about the two elders' indignation. Instead, he quickly formed hand seals with both hands.
He wanted to test the power of this barrier!
The light in Lu Bei's hand flowed, and the serene green light gradually covered his body.
Behind him, a ferocious green flood dragon was slowly condensing.
The giant flood dragon finally took shape. Its eyes swept around, and its body slowly broke free from Lu Bei's back.
After breaking free, the giant flood dragon quickly expanded, and instantly became a huge monster with a diameter of ten feet and a length of more than a hundred feet.
Green mist curled around its body, and its body was covered with mysterious Taoist runes, shining brightly.
Lu Yuan and Lu Zhou's hearts skipped a beat.
This was Green Flood Dragon Art, Green Flood Dragon Art. It was impossible for them not to recognize it.
It was just that the power of this Green Flood Dragon Art was much stronger than before.
They didn't know when Lu Bei's cultivation had improved again.
Was this a genius? How terrifying!
"Go!" Lu Bei shouted.
The giant flood dragon roared like thunder. Under Lu Bei's control, it vibrated with spiritual light and swooped toward the Iron Curtain in front of them.
The giant flood dragon's body covered a large part of the sky, and it stirred up a large amount of wind. It crashed into the eggshell-like Iron Curtain.
Bang!
A huge sound like thunder resounded through the world, causing pain in people's eardrums. The light of the green flood dragon shattered and turned into a dense rain of light.
When the light dissipated, the three people's faces became more serious.
The Iron Curtain was emitting a hazy halo, and it easily blocked the shocking attack of the green flood dragon summoned by Lu Bei.
Lu Bei had already expected this, so he wasn't too frustrated. He only made a judgment. "The power of this barrier has already surpassed the Golden Elixir Daoist.
If all the clans are willing to send people and work together, we might have a chance of breaking the barrier. With just the strength of the Lu and Ke clans, it's not something we can do. "
Lu Yuan's voice was hoarse as he scolded, "How can these idiots be so short-sighted? When the nest is overturned, no egg can remain intact. If Zhenjiang City suffers a great disaster, how can we, the clans that rely on Zhenjiang City, not weaken?!"
Lu Bei was quite open-minded. "As long as something doesn't happen to them, most people will choose to remain silent. It's human nature."
"Lu Qingshan is still in the city. He's the foundation of our Lu clan's revival. I shouldn't have let this kid leave the Lu clan so easily!" Lu Zhou sighed.
"What's the situation with the reinforcements?" Lu Bei didn't answer Lu Zhou's question. He turned around and asked.
Lu Yuan explained the current situation. "Although I immediately sent a spiritual message to the Zhenjiang Army to inform them of the current situation in Zhenjiang City, the chaos of the corpse puppets in the various prefectures has yet to subside. The Zhenjiang Army can't abandon the people in the prefectures and immediately rush back to Zhenjiang City."
Lu Zhou was silent.
The reason was simple.
The people of the Xia Clan in Zhenjiang City were lives, but the mortals in the various prefectures weren't lives?
Since the Zhenjiang Army had already arrived in the various prefectures, they couldn't demand that the Zhenjiang Army disregard the safety of the people in the prefectures, could they?
This was Hades's overt scheme.
There was no turning back. As long as the Zhenjiang Army arrived in the various prefectures, there was no reason for them to return to Zhenjiang City before the chaos was subdued.
"As for the cultivators sent by the other prefectures as reinforcements, they can't use the transportation array to teleport here immediately because the transportation array to Zhenjiang City has been sealed. They can only rely on flying here."
Lu Yuan paused for a moment before speaking again. "But there's good news. Perfected Cultivator Yuan Ming seemed to have anticipated this situation, so he sent a spiritual message to the prefectures in Qingzhou to request for reinforcements.
Unfortunately, the other prefectures wasted a lot of time from receiving the spiritual message to making a decision and dispatching cultivators. As a result, they weren't able to provide reinforcements to Zhenjiang Prefecture before the transportation array was sealed.
However, sending out the spiritual message in advance saved them half a day. The fastest group of powerful cultivators should be able to reach Zhenjiang City in half a day. "
"Not only is this barrier powerful, it can even prevent the penetration of divine sense. Right now, no one knows what's going on in the city. It's really worrying!"
Lu Yuan really hated the barrier formed by Shura's Blood Transformation Array, but he couldn't do anything about it.
"Zhenjiang City is so prosperous and has so many cultivators. No matter what, it shouldn't be unable to hold on for half a day, right?" Lu Zhou comforted him.
"That's true." Lu Yuan nodded.
