Chapter 560: Ghost Soldier (I)
The scale of this underground ghost city is beyond everyone's expectations.
There are two wide streets, one vertical and one horizontal, crisscrossed. Of course, this scale is slightly inferior to Hongshan Town, but this is underground, and I don't know how many years it has been buried. It's incredible that a crisscrossing street of this magnitude has been preserved almost intact.
"Criss-cross...... Ten Uniques! ”
Looking at the intersection of the two streets in the center of the ghost market from a distance, Liu Zheng was stunned and muttered.
Although this is not a river or an abyss, it is buried deep in the ground, but it really forms the last two characteristics of the "Ten Peerless Lands". Although the "Eight Golden Locks" are only the prototype of the "Eight Absolute Lands", these two crisscrossing streets are not naturally generated rivers and abysses, but artificial buildings. However, the two things together do have the basic characteristics of the "Ten Peerless Lands", even if they cannot be compared with the real "Ten Peerless Lands", the ferocious aura here is already so strong that it cannot be dissolved.
"What's that?"
Suddenly, Yuan Qianqian exclaimed.
"That's a pile of corpses."
Xiao Fan said in a deep voice, not caring if it would cause everyone's surprise, in his eyes, the green light was shining, and the "Heavenly Eye Divine Power" was running to the limit, and he could see the huge tomb at the intersection vaguely.
It is a corpse piled up in layers, after so many years, it has long turned into white bones, piled up like a mountain, surrounded by ghost fire phosphorus, yin wind and miserable, so not mad.
"It's not scientific......"
Yuan Qianqian exclaimed, and although her voice was very low, the expression on her face and the green tendons bursting around her neck were clearly expressed. She was screaming as hard as she could...... She didn't believe what she was seeing.
In the eyes of any normal person. The qiē in front of me is indeed unreal, too subversive.
An ancient market town. Because the geological movement is buried in the ground, this is no problem, anyone can accept it. In the center of this ancient market town, there are mountains of corpses, which are indeed terrifying, but acceptable. After all, this was once an ancient battlefield, and the rogues who were killed here are recorded in the history books. More than 50,000. The pile of bones in the distance looked like a small hill, and if you really counted it carefully, it was at best the corpses of thousands of people, far less than 10,000.
It used to be an ancient battlefield, a slaughter field.
This point, everyone present unanimously agreed, there is no problem.
The point is, how is it possible to form such a complete space underground. Geological movements have submerged this place. It must have been mud and sand, whether it was the streets or the houses, they should have been buried in the mud and sand. Lots of ancient tombs. In this way, the archaeological team cleaned up little by little in the mud and sand.
If this was the underground palace of a certain emperor, with a dome, then the underground streets remained intact. And rightfully so.
However, this is not a dungeon, this is an ancient street.
What kind of power is it? Let this ancient town street be preserved intact underground? Definitely not a force of nature. It won't be artificial.
Therefore, Yuan Qianqian shouted "unscientific".
In her career as a tomb robber, she had never encountered such a situation.
People with slightly fragile nerves are afraid that they have already collapsed.
"Miss Yuan, this is really unscientific, this is a supernatural force."
After a while, Liu Zheng whispered, but he didn't show too much surprise. As the person in charge of the 717 Office, he has seen a lot of similar supernatural situations, and he has long been surprised.
"You haven't been in a situation like this before, it's your luck."
Tan Xuan said coldly, with a sarcastic tone.
If you had been in a similar situation when you robbed the tomb in the past, would you still be able to stand here and talk to us?
Yuan Qianqian smiled and said, "Aunt Tan, you are so right, I have always been lucky. Not long ago, he was accidentally injured, but he was saved by Xiao Fan...... Aunt Tan, do you want to know how he healed me? ”
"It's not luck, it's the time hasn't come......"
Xiao Fan suddenly said this.
"Hey!"
Yuan Qianqian suddenly didn't care about arguing with Tan Xuan, nor did she care about the mountains of corpses piled up on the cross street in the distance, so she stared at Xiao Fan with wide eyes and puffed out her mouth, puffing out of breath.
Xiao Fan's words, how do you hear how does it have the meaning of "not reporting that the time has not come" - knowing that Tan Xuan is your senior sister, but I am your woman, who are you helping?
Xiao Fan ignored her, and the "Heavenly Ghost Gate" he saw in the underground world of Mogu Manor and the words carved on the pedestal of the sculpture came to his mind. Although one is in the South Seas and the other is in the interior of Jianghan, thousands of miles away, it seems that there is no boundary. However, the netherworld cannot be speculated according to common sense.
The "Gate of Heavenly Ghosts" in the underground world of Modove Manor seems to be vaguely said, and now the time has come, the "Gate of Heavenly Ghosts" is about to open, the Heavenly Ghosts are about to enter the world, and the paradise on earth will become an underground purgatory.
At that time, Xiao Fan had an ominous premonition in his heart, as if something big was about to happen. Soon after leaving Nanyang, he immediately saw such a strange situation in the underground of Hongshan Town, and Xiao Fan believed that it was definitely not just a coincidence. There should be some kind of inevitable connection in between, but for a while, he didn't have time to find out this connection.
At this moment, the entire underground world seemed to tremble suddenly, as if the sound of neat footsteps was heard.
Although it was just some kind of hallucination, in everyone's minds, they really felt this tremor, and they could really hear the sound of neat footsteps, as if there was a procession marching towards this side.
Before everyone came to their senses, they saw this "force"!
A large group of blackened figures, arranged in three neat columns, with spears on their shoulders and marching in order, were slowly approaching the street on the right. These figures are roughly the same as the black shadows that Xiao Fan and others saw a few days ago and rushed out of the stone house just now, the difference is that all the black shadows they have seen before are "bare-handed" and do not carry "blades", but the black shadows of these three columns are clearly carrying spears and are a well-trained "army".
Even, they wear helmets and armor.
Whether it's spears, helmets, or armor, it's all black, and I don't know if it's all made of black mist and yin qi, or if there really are these weapons and armor?
The underworld is pitch black and dark, and despite the lighting that everyone is wearing, visibility is still very low, far from being comparable to the world above. Even if Xiao Fan uses the "Heavenly Eye Vision", he can't really see it. Of course, this is because his "Tianyantong" has just started and is far from reaching the realm of perfection.
However, it felt like this ghost army was far more powerful than the individual ghosts it had encountered before.
"This ...... Is this Wang Xianzhi's rogue army? ”
Yuan Qianqian asked in a low voice.
According to Xiao Fan's inference, this should be the burial place of the rebel thief Qukui Wang Xianzhi in the late Tang Dynasty, and suddenly saw this "army" with a neat and majestic scepter in the underground ghost city, no wonder Yuan Qianqian thought so.
Xiao Fan shook his head lightly and said in a low voice, "Get ready!" ”
With a flip of his wrist, he held a stack of talismans between his hands. The talisman of the Wuji Gate is not easy to refine, and each talisman must be infused into it by the refiner with his own true qi mana. To put it simply, a talisman is actually a one-time consumption of a magic weapon, when the magician usually does not fight with others, he pours his true qi mana into the talisman to "preserve", and uses it to fight the enemy at critical moments and save his own mana.
Fortunately, Xiao Fan's character is calm and heavy, and he does not fight unprepared battles, and over the years, in his spare time, he has refined a large number of talismans. Usually not fighting with others, and consuming a large amount of true qi mana when refining talismans, it can also be regarded as some kind of actual combat exercise. Facts have proved that the effect of this is quite good, Xiao Fan not only greatly increases his true qi and mana refinement, but also strives for perfection in refining talismans, which can be called a master's level.
When converting one's true qi mana into the power of the talisman, it will inevitably suffer a certain amount of loss. The longer the talisman is kept, the more mana is lost, and at a certain point, the talisman loses its effect. The ability of the talisman maker depends on the power of the talisman refined and the length of time it is kept.
With Xiao Fan's level of talisman making, the strongest talisman he had refined was even equivalent to fifty percent of the power of his own shot. And when refining such a powerful talisman, Xiao Fan had to exert it with all his might. In other words, about half of the True Qi mana was lost in the process of refining the talisman, and only half was able to store it.
This is already quite remarkable.
Ordinary magicians refining talismans can have one or two percent of the power, which is already very good.
As for the kind of talisman that was equivalent to the full force of the original owner's blow, even Xiao Fan had only heard of it, and he had never found a similar alchemy technique. That kind of talisman is equivalent to requiring that there is no loss of true qi mana during the refining process, which is almost impossible.
On weekdays, Xiao Fan uses talismans against the enemy, and often only one or two can be effective. Only when I fought against Mo Gu not long ago, I consumed a lot of talismans, and when I returned to the Water Stopping Concept, I refined some to replenish the loss. Now facing a whole team of "ghost soldiers", Xiao Fan naturally did not hesitate.
The ghost market in this underground world is full of strange and unknowable dangers, and Yuan Qianqian needs his protection, Xiao Fan naturally wants to preserve his body, true qi and mana as much as possible in order to deal with accidents that may occur at any time.
Yuan Qianqian slowly showed her "rouge sword".
This "Rouge Sword", Xiao Fan had specially blessed it last night, in addition to the talisman, he even used the "Creation Ring". To deal with ordinary ghosts, the "Rouge Sword" is more than enough.
As long as there is a magic weapon to restrain ghosts, Yuan Qianqian's skills do not need to be doubted, the name of "the first female devil" is by no means called in vain.
Liu Zheng, Tan Xuan, Lu Ningchen and others also stared intently at the ghost soldiers of the brigade, and they all prepared to face the battle. (To be continued......)
