Chapter 970: It's Long Overdue
"The clan suffered this catastrophe, the 10,000-year-old foundation was destroyed, and the clansmen suffered heavy casualties, I don't know how to clean it up, and gather the surviving clansmen first, and then make plans when they find the Holy Maiden and Elder Zhao Linglong. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info" Zhao Zhuming sighed and said.
"That's fine, I'm here to find Xiu'er, so let's stay with you, Elder, and search for the remnants of the clan. Shi Mu said.
"Then thank you to the Lord of the Stone Alliance. Zhao Zhuming said.
"Not necessarily. Now we have so few people around us that it is almost impossible to complete a large-scale search. I think it's better to contact the Mitian Alliance first and ask them to send someone to support. Shi Mu waved his hand and said.
"This doesn't matter, our Tianfeng Clan's Star Protector Array has not been completely destroyed, so we can use this to contact the clansmen who are still alive on the Vermilion Bird Star. Zhao Zhuming said.
With that, he flipped his wrist, and the red light flashed in his palm, and an old red compass the size of a palm appeared.
He held a compass in one hand, and quickly pinched the spell in the other, and silently chanted a mantra in his mouth.
"Kai. Zhao Zhuming snorted softly.
I saw that the diamond-shaped pointer on the red compass turned rapidly, and after turning around the hexagram around the compass, a red fire suddenly lit up from it, turning into a huge fire phoenix phantom and flying straight into the sky.
Shi Mu raised his head and looked at the sky, and saw that after the fire phoenix phantom rushed into the clouds for a while, a red light suddenly lit up in the depths of the sky, and the range was extremely large, almost obscuring Shi Mu's entire field of vision.
The red light lit up for a moment, then vanished again.
When Shi Mu went to Zhao Zhuming again, he found that his face was very ugly, and his body was also shaky, obviously caused by his serious injuries and excessive consumption of spiritual power.
"Elder Zhu Ming, your injuries are not light, although I have helped you repair some of them, but you still can't be careless, let's go back to Fengyi City to recuperate for a while, and then arrange other matters." Shi Mu said.
Zhao Zhuming heard this and nodded.
The group flew up and flew back towards Phoenix Wing City.
......
Necromantic interface.
In the depths of the heavenly dome, there was only a single Blood Moon hanging high in the air, sprinkling a dark red light.
Above the ground, in a deep canyon that was incomparably wide, a black shadow was cast under the reflection of the blood moon.
Inside the canyon, there were huge mutilated rotting corpses and white bones, mixed with each other, from one end of the valley mouth to the other.
The shattered bones on the ground and the slime from the rotting corpses mixed together, flowing out of the cracks in the sea of bones in the mountain of corpses.
"Zheng" sounded.
A black blade stabbed out of the pile of carrion and slashed sideways, and a pitch-black skeleton warrior crawled out of it, its armor mutilated and obviously not lightly wounded.
At the exit on the side of the canyon, a burst of colored light flickered, and a half-crystal transparent skeleton crawled out of the pile of rotting corpses, holding two crystal bone knives in both hands, and looked at the top of the canyon with half propped up.
I saw that on the cliff wall on one side above the canyon, there was a colorful ancient tree growing obliquely, and the glow on it was flowing and the colorful glow was swirling, which looked very beautiful.
And on the colorful ancient tree, there was a slender figure sitting on it, but it was Yanluo.
He was dressed in silver armor, which perfectly set off his delicate figure, and his waist-length hair fell from behind him like a black waterfall, reflecting a special light in the red moonlight, which looked a little bewitching, but it was also breathtaking.
However, his face was extremely pale at the moment, and even the black lotus mark on his forehead was a little lighter than usual.
In the lower abdomen, there was a wound about three inches wide, the cut was very uneven, it was impossible to see what was injured, it was oozing green liquid, and there was always a trace of black mist, which looked very strange.
Yan Luo's wrist flicked, and the magic trick in his hand pinched, and some vines grew from the colorful ancient tree below him, covering the wound in his lower abdomen.
There was a soft "sizzle" sound.
The moment the vines touched the sky, they immediately bounced up as if they were burned, and bursts of white smoke rose from them.
However, the vines only retreated a few inches before reaching out towards the wound.
After repeating this several times, dozens of tiny vines withered, while the remaining vines rushed up, completely covering the wound.
"Sizzle"
A puff of white smoke rose, obscuring Yanluo's face a little, but his brow could still be seen frowning in pain.
After a few moments, the white smoke cleared.
Yan Luo's gaze swept down, looking towards the canyon.
The three largest carrion corpses in the deepest part of the canyon, an hour ago, were still three god-level necromantic creatures, but at this moment, they were all lifeless.
Yan Luo's gaze lingered on a fox-faced zombie for a while, and a look of disgust appeared in his eyes.
After a series of battles, these troubles were finally resolved.
In the valley, in addition to the seriously injured Wu Ye and the half-dead dagger spirit, there were once hundreds of thousands of necromantic troops, but now there are only more than a thousand people left.
A fishy wind blew through the canyon, blowing down the long hair on Yanluo's forehead, covering half of her cheeks, but not the look of exhaustion on her face.
Wu Ye also raised his head at this moment, and the soul fire in his eyes jumped, but he went straight through the smoke and looked at the huge blood-red full moon in the sky.
In the canyon, there was silence.
......
A few days later, Phoenix Wing City.
The inner city where the Tianfeng clan is located is still in ruins, full of crumbling dangerous walls and messy masonry.
It's just that compared to a few days ago, the corpses of those Tianfeng people who were hidden in the ruins have disappeared.
In front of a relatively complete vermilion hall, many Tianfeng people are gathering.
Although some time has passed since the great war, their faces still have some fear for the rest of their lives, and it is obvious that they have not been able to recover from the previous catastrophe.
In the main hall, there were less than ten people sitting.
The one on the left is headed by Zhao Zhuming, all of whom are from the Tianfeng clan, while on the right there is only Shi Mu.
The atmosphere in the hall was a little dull, and even Cai'er, who had always been lively and active, was lying on Shi Mu's shoulder in an orderly manner at this moment, without saying a word.
"Elder Zhu Ming, what is the situation of the Feng Clan today?" Shi Mu asked.
"The dead and wounded, plus more than half of the missing, have survived less than fifty percent, and they have returned to Fengyi City one after another in the past few days. My Tianfeng Clan's vitality has been greatly damaged this time, and I am afraid that it will not be able to recover for hundreds of years. Zhao Zhuming said with a sad expression.
"Is there any news from Xiu'er?" Shi Mu asked.
Except for what Zhao Cheng said that day, no one has ever seen the saint again. Zhao Zhuming sighed and said.
For this answer, Shi Mu was not surprised. In the past few days, he has flown to almost every corner of the Vermilion Bird Star with Cai'er, and found many Tianfeng clansmen, but he has never been able to find any trace of Zhong Xiu.
"The Lord of the Shi Alliance doesn't have to worry too much, the Holy Maiden and Elder Zhao Linglong are together, there will be no danger, most of them have already left the Vermilion Bird Star, and they may go to the Wuyan Star. Zhao Zhuming said.
Hearing this, Shi Mu nodded thoughtfully, paused for a moment, remembered something again, and then said: "Elder Zhu Ming, it's not that Shi Mu has selfish thoughts, with the current situation of the Tianfeng Clan, it is really not appropriate to stick to the Vermilion Bird Star anymore. If Heavenly Court raises troops to attack again, I am afraid that the Tianfeng Clan will suffer a catastrophe. ”
"I understand what the Lord of the Stone Alliance means, I have also discussed with these elders in the clan in the past few days, joining the Mitian Alliance is indeed the best choice for us and us, and we are all willing to do so. But ......" Zhao Zhuming stopped here and looked a little hesitant.
"But what?" Elder Zhu Ming said, but it didn't hurt. Shi Mu said.
"Although Huo Tu and the others said that they had killed the patriarch of our clan, after all, we have not witnessed it with our own eyes, if the patriarch returns again in the future, whether or not to join the Heavenly Alliance will depend on the patriarch's opinion. Even if the patriarch really dies, everything will be decided by the saint in the future. Zhao Zhuming said.
"Elder Zhu Ming is loyal to the Tianfeng Clan, and Shi Mu is sincere, so he follows what the elder said. Shi Mu said.
"The Lord of the Stone Alliance is broad-minded, and the people of the Blind Clan are grateful. Zhao Zhuming hurriedly said.
At this moment, a Tianfeng clan member suddenly walked in outside the door.
"Elder Qiyu, the Lord of the Stone Alliance, and Di Yan, the patriarch of the Earth Dragon Clan, have arrived with a large army. The man reported respectfully.
"Hehe, they're here at this time, it's really time. When Cai'er heard this, she couldn't help but mock and said.
When the elders of the Tianfeng clan heard this, their expressions also became very ugly.
Shi Mu turned his head and glared at Cai'er.
Seeing this, Cai'er knew that she had said the wrong thing, so she quickly shrank her head and stopped talking.
"Let them go back, let's just say that our Tianfeng Clan can't afford to be an ally like them. Zhao Zhuming frowned and said coldly.
"Yes"
The Tianfeng Clansman answered, and was about to withdraw.
"Wait, Elder Zhu Ming, let's invite them over first and hear what they have to say. Shi Mu stopped him and said to Zhao Zhuming.
"Okay. Zhao Zhuming thought for a moment when he heard the words and said.
A moment later, Di Yan walked in from outside with a look of shame and several Earth Dragon Clan elders.
"Patriarch Di, you guys are really just in time. My people have been begging for help for more than half a month, and I don't see you coming to help. As soon as the people of this Heavenly Court were repelled by the Lord of the Stone Alliance, you arrived. When Zhao Zhuming saw Di Yan, he didn't get up to greet him, and said in a very unkind tone.
And the several Tianfeng Clan elders sitting at the head of it also looked at Di Yan with angry expressions.
Not only Zhao Zhuming, but the entire Tianfeng Clan has now become a frightened bird, and they are all very annoyed and disappointed that the Earth Dragon Clan, which is an ally, has not come to help.
"This is a mistake, Elder Zhu Ming must not say that, my Earth Dragon Clan is also helpless. When we received the news of your request for help that day, we immediately sent the powerhouses of the God Realm of the clan to the Vermilion Bird Star through the teleportation formation, but then we found that the Vermilion Bird Star's formation had been closed. I knew that Vermilion Bird was in danger, and I sent a fleet to the rescue. Who would have thought that as soon as we entered the Star Sea, we were ambushed by the Heavenly Court army, and we also suffered heavy losses. Di Yan shook his head, sighed and said.
