Chapter 91 – Bodhi Enlightenment (Shaoyin)
The deep darkness of the night emanated and spread throughout the entire Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent, but at this moment, it was a scene of rain and mist, and in the depths of the dark and confused mist, the cold wind carried the residual rain and rolled the clouds and mist. The once prosperous and noisy land of the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent is now a miserable scene of grass and trees slaughtering and thousands of miles of red land.
This situation is something that no one living on the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent can accept. As the spring rain continues to rise and fall, the Xuanling River, which has never been flooded, has also begun to become uncalm. The Eternal Lock opened by the Holy Emperor not only released the Dark Legion that had already been dormant on the Sinking Leaf Demon Spirit Continent, but also caused a huge whirlpool that could not be crossed and changed in the middle of the Xuanling River due to the twisting of the Xuanling River.
At this time, the radius of a hundred miles has long been deserted, and the once spacious and noisy and prosperous ancient road is now piled up with the white bones of dead people, as well as collapsed and broken wheels, and rutted wheel marks that have been deposited under the mud. At this time, if someone said that the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent had lost its vitality at this time, this was also a reasonable and well-founded statement, and it could not be refuted.
At present, most of the people who still exist on the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent have migrated to the south, and although the south is also full of large-scale turmoil and military conflicts, it is still out of life. Although the South is also depressed, it is not so miserable. In the north of the current Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent, except for a small number of people under the control of the white-clothed Heavenly Maiden's forces who still remain in Lingcheng and Shengcheng, the north can be said to have no life at all.
Of course, the north on the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent is not calm now, and the main army of the Dark Legion still stays here and does not choose to pursue the main army of the country who have fled back to the Xuanling Continent. However, even if the Dark Legion stayed here for the time being, at a time when the northern part of the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent was already close to cutting off its vitality, there would be no problem in casting a long line to catch big fish.
The dark evil god was naturally not idle, and the things he needed most had not yet been obtained, how could he easily let go of such an opportunity. The reason why he didn't pursue the main army of the country was that he was afraid that going to the Xuanling Continent would lengthen their current combat route, and the main army of the country was basically intact, even if the dark army pursued to the Xuanling Continent, it would take a considerable amount of time to conquer this land where the strength still exists. As a result, attacking and pursuing the departed army is not a very favorable decision for the Dark Legion right now.
After much thought, the Dark Evil God still gave the order for the army to temporarily move south to the vicinity of the Huicheng, and his idea was still to prepare to destroy the last remaining Qi army in the city in one fell swoop. At the same time, the Dark Evil God sent the two lords under his command Starry Night to the Nine Domains to find Qimen Bagua and Jade Luoyu, and even if it was possible, to find Gao Hanyue who was now left in the Nine Domains, looking for an opportunity and time to directly seize Guangjun Ge, which was also one of the seven artifacts of the Creation God, from her hands.
The words of the Creation God Spirit to Gao Hanyue and Shen Xiyao were not wrong, he and the Dark Evil God could be said to know the existence of the roots, and he knew that during this time period, the Dark Evil God would inevitably attack on multiple fronts and send the army of the Dark Legion to various places to launch a joint battle. And not long ago, the Creator God Spirit even felt that the army under the command of the Dark Legion attacked the other five newborn worlds on multiple fronts, and the Creator God Spirit knew very well that in this case, these five newborn worlds did not have any stable defense, and it was not enough to resist the pace of the attack of the Dark Legion army.
However, although these five other newborn worlds had all fallen into the hands of the Dark Legion, the spirit of the Creation God had found a rare opportunity from here, that is, the Dark Legion currently remaining on the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent had been greatly reduced due to the number of dispatches sent by multiple parties. That's why he told Gao Hanyue and Shen Xiyao that as long as he could delay the time for the Dark Evil God to collect all the seven artifacts, as long as the Dark Evil God didn't have these seven Creation Divine Artifacts in his hands, he would not be able to release the main force of the Dark Legion left in the dark abyss under the labyrinth, as long as the main force was not up to the Dark Legion's offensive, it would not be very strong. In this way, if it drags on, there is still time and opportunity for the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent to continue fighting. And the main opportunity of this method is actually to keep the three creation artifacts on the Nine Domains, Qimen Bagua, Biluoyu and Guangjun Cangwu in Gao Hanyue's hands. These three artifacts must not fall into the hands of the Dark Army again under any circumstances, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.
However, what the Dark God didn't expect was that right under his nose, three young people who had come to the rescue of their companions appeared near the main army of the Dark Legion. These three people are Lu Deng and Shi Lanbo, who were previously controlled and captured by the Dark Legion, and Feng Shanshan, Nangong Yun and Yu Fei, who were later captured by Bu Yuehan, who turned to pursue the Dark Legion, they said goodbye to Feng Yuchong and Luo Yinying and went all the way north, but because they were wary of the Dark Legion that might appear beside them on the road, the speed and pace of these three girls were not fast. When they arrived at the camp of the Dark Legion near Tianhailing, most of the troops who had left the country had already left Tianhailing by boat and returned to the Xuanling Continent
Under pressure and the ability of the Dark Evil God, Feng Shanshan, Nangong Yun, and Yu Fei did not dare to get too close to the camp of the Dark Legion. After discussing it, they decided to stay at a certain distance from the Dark Legion for the time being, firstly to observe the Dark Legion's movements and the next actions they might take and carry out, and secondly, to keep their distance from the Dark Evil God and prevent him from discovering it.
And in the early morning of this day, the three girls who were taking turns to observe the Dark Legion suddenly found that the Dark Legion, which had been silent and even seemed to be about to be stationed here, suddenly began to move on a large scale, and the army of the Dark Legion left the seashore where Tianhailing was stationed and began to move south. The three girls realized that such a large-scale southward movement must be aimed at the city. This news is quite unfavorable news for Feng Shanshan, Nangong Yun and Yu Fei, who have already found a way to infiltrate the Dark Legion, that is, to rob the clothes of the patrol army and blend into the camp of the Dark Legion. And now, the Dark Legion is about to set out to set out for the south to attack the city again. On the one hand, this provided great pressure to the Huicheng, which was not yet fully prepared, and on the other hand, it also made it impossible for them to smoothly blend into the Dark Legion, which was tantamount to further increasing the difficulty for them to rescue Shi Rambo, Lu Deng, and Bu Yuehan.
"The departure of the Dark Legion is tantamount to continuing to increase the difficulty of saving us, but we can't easily give up this operation, I suggest that we still go according to the original plan, separate operations to ensure safety, and then sneak into this to find the traces of Rambo, Lu Deng and Sister Han'er, we still have to ensure that we are extremely careful. After pondering for a long time, Feng Shanshan still said resolutely.
Yu Fei also nodded at the same time: "What Shanshan said makes sense, we can't give up on them, no matter what the result is, we still have to try." ”
Nangong Yun said lightly: "In that case, I will act from the vicinity of the camp on the right, and I will hand it over to you on the left and in the middle." ”
The corners of Feng Shanshan's mouth pursed a comfortable smile, "Okay, then let's act, while the Dark Legion has not completely evacuated Tianhailing, we still have to understand the situation in Chu, maybe this opportunity is better." ”
The three girls jumped down from the stone of the hiding place, changed into the clothes of the Dark Legion, which had already been prepared, and strode directly to the location of the Dark Legion camp.
.....
What the three girls expected was that at this time, although most of the troops of the Dark Legion had already evacuated Tianhailing, including the souls of the Dark Evil God, they also attached to the bodies of the two messengers in bright clothes and left Tianhailing with them, and at this time, the main attention of the Dark Evil God was focused on the Dark Legion in the Dark Abyss. He sensed that the Vampire Bat Queen Detna seemed to be freed from his dark control and shackles, and began to call for the mobilization of the soldiers and civilians of the Lost City who did not belong to the Dark Legion but were forcibly controlled by him to launch an uprising against the rule of the Dark God. This was undoubtedly fundamentally shaking his dark rule, which was something that the Dark God could not accept in any way, so during this time, the Dark God had been observing everything that was happening in the Dark Abyss. Now this matter has even developed to the point where it is uncontrollable. At this time, even if the Dark Legion does not return to the Dark Abyss, he must go back.
He knew very well that it was not a very wise move and behavior to use his soul to remotely continue to control these Lost City soldiers and civilians under his command, especially now that he had been using his soul to try to control the Saint Emperor's body some time ago, he naturally ignored the control of these Lost City soldiers and civilians. Once they break free from this grip and concentrate their efforts on the fragile flesh that he is still left in the dark abyss, it will inevitably have a huge impact on his power, something that the dark god cannot accept and tolerate under any circumstances. Therefore, while secretly ordering the two Mingyi envoys to lead the army south to attack the city, his own soul took the lead in going to the vortex on the Xuanling River to return to the Shenye Demon Spirit Continent, and he wanted to ensure that his body was now in a safe condition.
In this case, the dark evil god's action of torturing the captives and gradually disintegrating the mental pleasure of others was temporarily declared in vain, and he had no choice but to hand over Bu Yuehan, who had not yet succumbed to the dark army, to Shi Rambo and Lu Deng. Of course, he had already unleashed dark spells on Shi Rambo and Lu Deng's bodies that controlled their bodies, and these spells would take effect once they tried to resist or regain their minds, inflicting cruel and extremely painful torture on them, which was also a great pain that ordinary people could not bear.
After arranging this, the soul of the Dark Evil God immediately left Tianhailing and returned to the Sinking Leaf Demon Spirit Continent, compared to the safety of other places, what he was more worried about was actually the crisis facing the Dark Legion.
