Chapter XII

A green shadow rushed out of the sky, and it was indeed the green dragon. With a dull roar, the mirage's body shattered completely, and large clouds of fishy liquid mixed with the fragments of its body splattered in all directions, and a large number of people followed suit, falling all over the ground.

And in just a moment's effort, one-third of the Fox Demon Clan soldiers and nearly half of the Emei disciples died in the mirage, and the rest also had a small half missing arms and legs, and some even had their entire scalp digested, covering their bare heads and wailing on the ground. Only when one has cultivated to a certain extent can one be completely extricated from difficulties.

"Patriarch!" Liuli screamed, and hurriedly rushed up with Shifang to help Tianzang. Seeing that Tianzang was out of trouble, Qu Li was full of uncertainty not far away, obviously this was not the result he wanted to see.

Although Tianzang was fine, Qi Cheng, who was seriously injured during the battle with the Extinction Meng, finally died in the mirage's body. Shuoguang was also seriously injured, and his entire left leg was missing, and the fox demon clan suffered heavy losses this time.

Although they are not as clean as the blood clan, the fox demon clan is naturally arrogant, and they really can't stand the mirage of the smelly liquid all over their bodies, and at the moment, many experienced fox clan soldiers vomited.

Although now the Emei people and the fox demon clan are mixed together, but because they have just escaped from the mirage, they are all dizzy, but no one can pay attention to anyone, and everyone is busy taking care of their companions.

Zhang Lie still stood still and watched from the sidelines. Although the fox demon clan suffered heavy losses, nearly half of the fox soldiers still had combat effectiveness, and there were only more than a thousand ghost soldiers left under their own command, and the outcome of the battle was unpredictable. He wouldn't spend his precious combat power on this, and now Zhang Lie was thinking about whether it would be too late to stop the destruction of Meng by rushing into Futian City.

The Emei faction suffered the heaviest losses, and most of the Emei disciples' cultivation was not even an ordinary fox soldier, and as a result, only half of them survived, and the rest were somewhat injured.

With Ying Feixuan's protection, Zhuo Lingyu was fine, but looking at the tragic situation of his fellow disciples, he was shocked and angry, and he would rather not think about the terrible experience in the mirage for the rest of his life.

"Master, we have suffered a lot of losses and cannot stay any longer." Ying Feixuan forcibly held back the nausea caused by the mucus and said to Zhuo Lingyu.

"But what about Floating Sky City?" Zhuo Lingyu glanced at the Floating Sky City, which had been destroyed by Annihilation.

"We alone can't do anything." Ying Feixuan shook his head, hesitated, and then he said again: "This time, you rashly led the crowd and lost a large number of disciples, and after you go back, I'm afraid those people will... It's not good for you. The plan for now is to quickly contact the other three factions to discuss countermeasures, how to recapture Floating Sky City, and keep your position as the leader..."

Zhuo Lingyu couldn't help but be gloomy: "When is it, but I have to worry about this kind of thing, master, why do you put such a heavy burden in my hands..."

Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he turned his head to look around, and then pointed at Chu Duan, who was kneeling down in the distance and was almost unconscious: "Quick, go and save Chu Dui, if it weren't for him, we would have died twice." ”

Ying Feixuan nodded, and it was pointless to investigate why Chu Duan had the spell of the Emei Sect, and he personally brought Chu Duan down. At this time, Chu Duan was already weak due to summoning the green dragon twice in a row, blood was flowing from his mouth and nose, and the "Tibetan Pan Reincarnation Curse" on his body was also faintly oozing blood.

"Oops, we need to get treated." Zhuo Lingyu hurriedly unfolded the Demon Gathering Jane and summoned the spirit beast in it to "dispel malaria mirror".

The light shone in the Demon Gathering Jane, and a transparent beast slowly rose from the light cluster. Its membrane-like body resembles a hat with a small mirror-like crystal on it, and its lower body floats with countless slender tentacles like fishing lines, which slowly float into the air like a jellyfish.

The malaria mirror hovered above Chu Duan's body, and the tentacles under his body were inextricably wrapped around him, quickly wrapping him like a translucent silkworm cocoon. As its body swelled slightly, a soft light flowed through the surface of the "cocoon".

The Malaria Mirror is one of the four major demon beasts in Zhuo Lingyu's Demon Gathering Jane, which has the effect of making monsters manifest, reflecting curses, and healing, which is quite useful. In just a moment, the tentacles of the antimalaria mirror slowly disintegrated, and the healing ended.

Chu Duan's face had improved a lot, and it was still very difficult to stand, but his vitality had recovered a lot. Seeing Zhuo Lingyu, he already understood what was going on, and smiled miserably as a thanks.

Zhuo Lingyu said in surprise: "Chu Duan, why are you here?" ”

Chu Duan took a difficult breath: "Extinction sent a lot of monsters to operate in various places, I happened to catch two of them, and when I learned that Extinction was recalling them, I guessed that he would definitely take action, so I followed here." ”

Thinking of the monsters that the master had encountered in Guangzhou, Zhuo Lingyu secretly said that this was the case. At the same time, he secretly regretted that such an obvious sign did not attract the attention of any magic sect, and it was not until the Extinction came to attack Floating Sky City that he realized that the power of the monsters outside had reached such a point.

Knowing that it was useless to regret it now, he shook his head: "Don't talk about this, let's leave quickly." ”

"No, I'll just go by myself." Chu Duan struggled to his feet.

Knowing that he was still under siege in the South China Sea Cliff, Zhuo Lingyu pressed Chu Duan's shoulder and said sincerely: "You have saved me several times, and I am here to assure you that that kind of thing will never happen again in the future." What's more, you are seriously injured, and the malaria mirror just now only made you recover slightly, and if you don't treat it quickly, it is likely to worsen. ”

Hearing his assurance, Chu Duan looked at Zhuo Lingyu suspiciously, obviously not believing that he could really call the shots. Ying Feixuan said at this time: "This young man doesn't have to worry, Ling Yu is now the head of Emei, if you go back with us, no one will embarrass you." ”

Chu Duan hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.

At this time, Liuli was also asking Tianzang, "Patriarch, what should we do?" ”

The losses of the fox demon clan are quite large, the attrition has reached almost half, and most of the rest are injured, and Qi Cheng's death and Shuoguang's disability are even more of a huge blow, and this time it can be said that the gains outweigh the losses. Looking at Zhang Lie and the others who had been sitting on the wall watching from the back, as well as the more than a thousand ghost soldiers behind him, Tianzang knew that he had no chance at all.

"Let's go." Although he was very unwilling, Tianzang was still helpless.

Liuli also knew that there was nothing to be done at the moment, so she glanced at Futian City with disgust, she helped Tianzang to lead the crowd to evacuate. At this moment, a puddle of mucus burst out not far away, and large bubbles suddenly appeared.

"Hmm..." In the scream, a person rolled out, it was the snake.

The original form was destroyed, and the snake was in an unprecedented embarrassment at the moment. Most of his muscles were missing, and in many places he was exposed to white bones, making him look like a mutilated medical model. Covered with disgusting slime, the snake panted and tried to get up, but as soon as he stood up, with a click, the fragile arm bones of his hands broke, and the whole person fell back to the ground, gasping weakly again and again.

This big guy didn't even die, and everyone couldn't help but be stunned for a while. Zhang Lie's eyes flashed, and he whispered to Jian Xian: "Take the ghost soldiers into the Floating Heaven City, and you must snatch those monsters." This guy is handed over to me. ”

As he spoke, he jumped out, and a few ups and downs had jumped in front of the snake. The brave snake no longer had any power to resist, he trembled all over, and raised his head to look at Zhang Lie in front of him.

"Let's go down and accompany the thorns." Zhang Lie said lightly, a burst of green flames burst out in his hand, and a huge fox head condensed by flames stared at the snake condescendingly.

Anyway, the matter has been revealed, and Zhang Lie no longer hides it, and summons Zhibo without any scruples. Seeing the fox head in his hand, all the fox demon clansmen suddenly showed deep hatred in their eyes.

"This bastard, one day I'm going to make him pay." Ruri gritted her teeth.

The threat of death was imminent, but the snake did not have the slightest fear. He looked at Zhang Lie without showing weakness, and a mocking smile appeared on his face.

With a snort, Zhang Lie was about to make a move, when suddenly everyone was startled and looked in the direction of Floating Sky City. Zhang Lie also involuntarily stopped his movements and looked over.

In the Floating Sky City, an extremely strong demonic aura surged out, sweeping the entire mountain in an instant like a raging tsunami. This demonic aura was so strong that even Zhang Lie felt a chill in his heart.

"Oops, Annihilation has already been done..."Jian Xian muttered.

**********************************************************************

Quietly, thousands of youkai appeared from the city, they were in different forms, but each one gave people a feeling that should not be underestimated, and when thousands of such monsters gathered together, their might can be imagined.

Surrounded by several monsters, Annihilation walked out slowly. Jian Xian and Zhang Lie immediately recognized several of them as subordinates of Annihilation four hundred years ago, and it seemed that through them, these monsters had decided to obey Annihilation.

The snake didn't know where to give birth to the strength, and the body that had been lying on the ground suddenly turned over, and the whole person had fallen backwards three feet, and at the same time, the two monsters behind him immediately met him and helped him back.

Zhang Lie didn't try to stop it, and at this moment he was completely immersed in the shock of the success of the Annihilation. Although he didn't fight, Zhang Lie could already feel that with these more than 3,000 monsters, it was even more difficult to deal with Annihilation.

In fact, it is really calculated, and the party that has suffered the most losses this time is the one who has suffered the most. Not only were the thousands of demon soldiers who came with him exhausted, but even the thorn wounds were killed, and Annihilation was no different from death now. But he still succeeded after all, and these three thousand youkai were enough to make up for all the losses.

"Goo..."I don't know whose Adam's apple rolled, and it was very clear in the field where the needle drop could be heard.

For a while, everyone thought that if Zhan Meng made a move now, these three thousand monsters would be enough to kill all the monsters and people present, and many people turned pale on the spot, and a few Emei disciples were so frightened that they sat down.

Taking a step back quietly, Zhang Lie took a deep breath and said to Jian Xian, "Get ready to fight." ”

How do you know that Jian Xian shook his head: "Don't worry, you can't fight." ”

"How?" Zhang Lie turned his head in surprise: "You said that Annihilation would not do it." ”

Jian Xian smiled confidently: "Do you know what 'bluffing' is?" If Annihilation really had the intention to kill us, how could his character allow those monsters to exude demonic energy without restraint? Think about it, after being locked up for so long, and now that they have just escaped, how much strength do you think they have left? Even if we wanted to destroy Mon, we wouldn't agree. ”

After being reminded by Jian Xian, Zhang Lie immediately understood that these monsters were just the end of the crossbow, so he used the demon energy to scare everyone. But once they recover, it's going to be hard to deal with.

Thinking of this, Zhang Lie clapped his palms and made a downward splitting motion: "Then it's better to do it now..."

Jian Xian scoffed at his proposal: "Calm down, I said that Annihilation is reluctant to fight, just because he doesn't want to have meaningless losses, but I didn't say that we can win." Emaciated camels are bigger than horses, and these monsters are not something that can be dealt with by just ghost soldiers. And even if you are willing to fight, the fox demon clan and the Emei faction will not help. ”

"Do you want them to leave like that?" Zhang Lie really didn't want to think about what kind of terrifying force he would be if he waited for these monsters to recover.

Jian Xian said in a tone that didn't matter to herself: "Otherwise, what else?" I don't think anyone wants to fight anymore except you. There's no way, this time we lost, and this time it's even more difficult to deal with. ”

“…… Damn it! After a moment of silence, Zhang Lie cursed unwillingly.

At this time, Annihilation's eyes coldly swept over all the monsters and people present, and finally stopped at Zhang Lie, and said in an indifferent tone without a trace of emotion: "Next time I come back, none of you will survive, especially you, Zhang Lie." ”

After that, lead the group of demons down the mountain and leave without looking back.

It wasn't until long after they left that the minds of everyone in the audience still echoed with what he had just said, and the impression left at that moment was so deep that no one doubted that he would do it.

First was the fox demon clan, then the Emei faction, and soon only Zhang Lie and others were left on the top of the mountain where the corpses were ambushed. Qiu Hong and Si You hid aside and discussed something in a low voice, it should be to discuss how to report the matter to the King of the Corpse after they returned.

After a while, Zhang Lie smiled bitterly: "Let go of Meng out, I seem to have really done something wrong..."

"Regret it?" Jian Xian looked at him with a smile.

"Of course not!" Zhang Lie said without hesitation: "I, Zhang Lie, never regret doing things. I still have a chance, I haven't had the strength to fight with the annihilation, wait, I will succeed in the end! ”

This is not self-consolation after defeat, Zhang Lie's strong self-confidence shows that he has not lost his fighting spirit, as the famous adage says: You can be defeated, but you cannot be defeated.

A smile appeared in Jian Xian's eyes: "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, a defeat is nothing, as long as you can win the last battle, the victory is yours after all." Besides, although Annihilation got those thousands of monsters, they may not all be convinced, and we don't need to worry too much until he completely unifies these rebellious guys. And the death of the thorn wound is definitely a great blow to him, as long as we take the right next step, we still have a great chance of winning. ”

As he spoke, he walked straight to the ghost soldiers: "Let's go, the sun is coming out, it's really a long night." ”

Seeing Jian Xian coming over, Qiu Hong and Si You also stopped whispering. When Jian Xian opened the Heavenly Realm Book and let those ghost soldiers enter in turn, Zhang Lie turned around and walked towards the edge of the cliff.

He stood on the edge of the cliff and looked at the overlapping mountains in the distance as undulating waves stretched to the end of his vision. Taking a deep breath, Zhang Lie suddenly raised his head to the sky and shouted: "Annihilation, you will definitely die!" ”

In a valley in the distance, all the demons who were marching silently stopped in unison, and the leader of the demon turned around, with a smile of sympathy on his face: "Good boy..."
