Chapter 83 Escape

With this finger raised, the green-faced ghost king felt as if he was being targeted by some ancient giant beast. The endless majesty rushed towards him, so heavy that he could no longer move. The next moment, he was completely submerged in this unparalleled momentum...

From the perspective of other ghosts, the bald boy just casually held out his finger, and the green-faced ghost king died on the spot and disappeared into ashes.

Following the killing blow with one finger, Tang Chuan's momentum suddenly became stronger. He couldn't use his methods at will to avoid exposing his identity as a ghost hunter, but once the emperor's aura spread, it would instantly frighten countless ghosts. They all fell to their knees under this unparalleled momentum, and even the human cultivators far away on other fronts felt this shocking momentum.

A human cultivator trembled and said: "Emperor level...is the Hades Emperor finally going to be dispatched? I knew it, I knew this was not an ordinary ghost disaster."

His eyes were filled with despair.

Once the invasion of the underworld reaches the imperial level, it will no longer be something that the Yanyang Realm can resist. There is no other reason. There are too many great ghosts in the underworld. As long as the underworld is willing, the various underworld emperors can even come in groups, which is definitely not something that one or two powerful men in the Yanyang world can resist.

Overwhelming opponents with massive numbers has always been a characteristic of the underworld, whether it is human cultivators who practice ghost ways or the underworld itself.

Numbers are their advantage, and the sea of ​​ghosts formed by endless ghosts is enough to flood most areas. Even if humans have higher-level cultivators, if they do not have a numerical advantage, they will still be mercilessly overwhelmed.

Feiyan, a dignified spiritual cultivator, was several levels higher than the Tianxin Ghost King, but he was still overwhelmed by ghosts a hundred times his size.

Now even the Underworld Emperor has appeared in the underworld. When thinking that there may be thousands of Underworld Emperors appearing on this land, human cultivators are completely desperate - that is a disaster that even humans with earthly immortals cannot resist!

But at this moment, the aura in the distance suddenly disappeared, as if it had never existed. It just disappeared inexplicably, leaving everyone puzzled for a moment.

At first, I thought that the Hades Emperor was coming here, and maybe he would be doomed in the next moment. After waiting for a long time, there was no movement. On the contrary, it was the ghost where the Underworld Emperor appeared, and the chaos increased instead of decreasing.

Everyone was confused for a moment, wondering if there was a powerful person coming from our side.

While he was hesitating and confused, another monstrous force suddenly burst out and swept across the ground.

After all, human cultivators are still far away at this time.

There were no casualties, but the force could be seen razing half of the mountainous area to the ground in an instant, with nothing surviving in its path.

The cultivators were shocked and saw that there was already flat land in the distance. The ghosts that were originally all over the mountains and plains suddenly disappeared without a trace, leaving only a few ghosts at the front unharmed, but they no longer caused any trouble.

A cultivator suddenly woke up and shouted: "Why are you still hesitating? Kill!!!"

All the cultivators have been killing the ghosts together.

This battle became the Yan Yang Realm's first great victory since it resisted the invasion of the underworld. Although the victory was somewhat inexplicable, it was still very exciting after the news came out.

As for the initiator of this incident, Tang Jie and his son had quietly retreated with Baigui Yexingzhou.

Sitting on the Bone Throne, Tang Jie listened to Sha Luo talking about his experiences in the past few days.

It turned out that after Tang Jie left, he followed Tang Jie's instructions and led ghost ships to attack everywhere to collect ghosts and protect humans. However, this kind of eating and drinking method could not last long, and they were soon targeted.

The one who was eyeing them was the green-faced ghost king. After all, the underworld has always been in chaos, and ghost eagles have always taken actions under the guise of competing for interests. Therefore, after the ghost king found them, he only scolded them, but did not kill them directly. But he forced them into a fighting team and let them follow him to fight against humans. During this period of time, Baigui Yexingzhou followed the green-faced ghost king and fought several fierce battles with humans. Unexpectedly, in this mountainous area, Tang Jie ended his fate of fighting humans.

"Is that so? So you should have a clearer understanding of the recent situation?" Tang Jie said, "Tell me, how is the situation?"

Ghost Eagle replied: "The Yanyang Realm has completely contracted, and has basically given up the entire northern territory and retreated towards the Great Sun Sect."

Tang Jie nodded: "This is exchanging space for time, so that's right."

The underworld passage cannot always exist. To some extent, the invasion of the underworld is not much different from the invasion of Hongmeng. They are both foreign invaders who come and go. The only difference is the scale.

For this reason, it is the right approach to trade space for time and preserve yourself to the greatest extent possible.

It's not that the great masters of the Yanyang Realm are well versed in the art of war, but that they have been doing this for tens of thousands of years. Especially for the weak, it is normal for them to retreat and wait when they are not strong enough. Whether it is the invading party or the invaded party, the mutual momentum has long formed a set of fixed gameplay. Everyone follows the routine, and some aspects are not surprising at all times.

In contrast, a war like the Qixia Realm's invasion of the Blood River Realm, which annexed the opponent's land to the bone, left no room for anything.

This is probably the difference between civil war and foreign war. However, the cruelty of civil war is relative to the ruling level, and has little impact on the people at the bottom. Whenever there is a war, there will usually be appropriate comfort. When foreign invaders invade, they often burn, kill, and loot. They pose little threat to the ruling class, but have a huge impact on the lower classes.

This difference is also reflected in the annexation war and the invasion of other worlds. The annexation war led by Yun Tianlan has more protection for the bottom layer, but the ones who resist the most fiercely are Xuehe and others. However, the Yanyang Realm has been resisting until now. The strongest few have not yet taken action, but the lower levels have already been killed in rivers of blood, which is extremely cruel. Although they have concerns about Yuan Tianzhong not taking action, it is not necessarily true that it has nothing to do with the nature of this kind of war. Which ingredient is more is a matter of opinion. Even Yuan Tianzhong himself may not be able to tell clearly.

That's a long way off. In short, exchanging space for time is a common strategy to fight against the invasion of the underworld, and it's not unusual. In addition, the Great Sun Sect occupies the place with the most intense fire in the Yanyang Realm, and has a certain restraint effect on the ghost mist of the underworld. Yuan Tianzhong and others have even arranged a Yanyang Formation with the Great Sun Sect as the center, which can further prevent The invasion of ghost fog.

In this case, the two races of humans and ghosts started fighting around the border of the black mist.

Although human cultivators are inferior to the ghosts in terms of strength, they are on the defensive and retreat to places beyond the reach of the ghost mist whenever they cannot fight. Fighting in the Sunshine Zone will greatly affect the strength of ghosts, so they can be resisted.

"So, the battle has reached a stalemate so far, and it is the Yanyang Formation that determines the outcome of the battle?" Tang Jie asked.

"Yes. The Yanyang Formation attracts the power of the sun and dispels the black haze, making it difficult for the ghost mist to move forward. Without the protection of the ghost mist, we and other ghosts are exposed to the sun, and their strength is greatly reduced, making it difficult to expand."

"But it's still expanding after all, right?" Tang Jie asked slowly.

"Yes!" Ghost Eagle lowered his head and replied.

Although the Yanyang Formation is strong, it cannot resist the power of the underworld. It can only delay, delay, and slow down the expansion of the ghost mist until the eruption of the underworld power ends.

For the Yanyang Realm, this is never a question of whether it can be defended, but a question of how many casualties it will cause.

If you are unlucky, the black mist spreads throughout the entire territory, and when the Nether Clan retreats, it is possible that there will be no more humans in Yanyang.

Tang Jie held up the glass cup, used this magic weapon to pour himself a glass of wine, brought it to his mouth and took a sip before saying: "Shaluo, how far do you think the underworld will invade this time?"

Shaluo hesitated for a moment and then said: "Although this Jiuyou Grand Meeting is only a king-level event, the scale is different from the past. If there is no accident, it will be able to level the entire Yanyang world."

Tang Jie asked again: "If humanity has one more powerful person at the Zifu level, will it be enough?"

Shaluo shook his head.

He didn't speak, but his meaning was very clear. Under the tens of millions of king-level ghosts in the underworld, one underworld-level Tang Chuan was far from enough.

Tang Jie sighed softly, yes, even if he killed more than a hundred ghost kings and promoted Xiao San to the emperor level, he would still be unable to turn the tide in the face of such a ghost tide.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but turn his head and look at Feiyan behind him.

Ever since he became his prisoner, this great cultivator at the stage of becoming a god had been disguised as an ordinary kid and left beside him. He had no breath and looked haggard.

At this moment, when she noticed Tang Jie looking over, Feiyan suddenly realized something, and her heart began to beat wildly involuntarily.

Sure enough, Tang Jie stared at her for a while and said, "You have also seen the current situation."

Feiyan took a deep breath and replied: "Of course, I understand what you mean. I am a successor of ghosts, and I can enslave ghosts for my use. In this underworld war, my cultivation can play a big role. I know you have also learned the art of ghosts, but you can control up to three ghost kings at a time, and I, I can control up to two hundred king-level ghosts! Here, I have inexhaustible resources. As long as If you are willing to let me go, I am willing to swear by the law of heaven to fight to the death to protect the survival of mankind."

Tang Jie nodded: "I don't doubt that you have that ability, nor do I doubt that you have that determination. To be honest, even if you don't swear, it is impossible for you and the ghost tribe to become friends. As you said, you are As a descendant of ghosts, ghosts in the underworld are your resources. As long as you are free, you cannot let them go. You don't have to do it for others, you will do it for yourself. But on the other hand, you can kill ghosts, and you may also kill people. As far as you are concerned, any kind of moral restraint is probably useless now, right?"

Feiyan's expression changed.

Tang Jie already said: "So I don't need you to swear to kill anything, but I need you to swear not to kill anything... I want you to swear by the law of heaven. From now on, unless you protect yourself, you can't kill any human being again, and you can't act recklessly." Harm an innocent person."

Feiyan looked at him fiercely, her chest rising and falling, and after a while she said: "Okay, I agree!"

Then he made an oath of heaven.

With Feiyan's current strength, the binding force of the Tiandao Oath on her was not something she could easily resist, so after making this oath, Tang Jie relieved her of her predicament.

As the restraints were lifted, Feiyan regained her freedom.

She thought she would be imprisoned as an adult from now on, but she didn't expect to be freed again in the blink of an eye, which made Feiyan sigh for a moment.

She glanced at Tang Jie with complicated eyes, thought of something, and suddenly laughed loudly and said: "The oath I made, I only said not to harm human lives indiscriminately, but I did not restrain ghosts. In this case, this If I kill all the ghosts on the ship, including your ghost son who has just entered the emperor's rank, will it not violate the oath of heaven?"
