In the backyard of the Su Mansion, Yu Zhi and Su Muci saw Su Ruyu.

"Young master." Su Ruyu bowed.

Yu Zhi said: "Third uncle, you are my elder. No need to be polite. I don't know what the third uncle said in his letter? ”

Before arriving in Qiangcheng, Su Ruyu was a messenger to Yu Zhi, and the language in the letter was unknown.

At that time, Yu Zhi had also been practicing in retreat, and stabilized his realm on the nine grades of the opening monument.

For a while, Yu Zhi also forgot about it.

It wasn't until Su Muci reminded him that Yu Zhi remembered.

Su Ruyu led the way in front, and as she walked, she said: "The Su family met a lot of people who fled from Nanzhou Mansion on the way to evacuate Sucheng. The Su family rescued some, but they also met a few strange people. ”

"What's the strange?" Su Muci asked curiously.

Su Ruyu paused, thinking about what kind of words to use to describe it.

"Well, you'd better come with me."

Yu Zhi and the two followed Su Ruyu into a room.

On the bed lay a man, his breath weak, the skin on his face twitching, as if something was swimming in his flesh.

His eyes were open, his eyes were hollow, his pupils were pitch black, and the whites of his eyes were bloodshot, and his whole eyeballs looked bigger than ordinary people.

Su Ruyu continued: "Originally, I saved seven people, but six of them died. Only this one person is left undead. ”

"For the past few days, I can only hang on to his life, but I have never been able to figure out what caused them to be like this. It's like being poisoned, or being poisoned by some strange secret technique, it's really weird. ”

"I think this matter is related to the night ghost, so I don't dare to say anything."

Su Muci opened his mouth and said, "If it is poisoned, it is better to let Granny Yu take a look." Maybe you can know a thing or two. ”

Yu Zhi said, "No need. My mother-in-law couldn't cure it. The third uncle is right, the strangeness in this person's body is indeed related to the night ghost. ”

Su Ruyu and Su Muci both looked at Yu Zhi, and saw that Yu Zhi's expression was very serious.

Obviously, what is in front of us is not trivial.

Soon, this person was escorted to Lianyun Mountain, guarded by the soldiers of the Beidou Battalion, and there was a formation set up by the Shenyin Pavilion around the cell.

It's just a delirious person who makes Yu Zhi so cautious and vigilant.

"Auntie, the real catastrophe is coming." Yu Zhi said in a deep voice.

Li Qingru didn't know why, but when he saw Li Haomiao staring at the person in the cell, he was surprised: "It shouldn't be that thing in Lingkui Ancestral Land." ”

Yu Zhi nodded. "Yes, I suspect it's the strange power of the Ember Ruins that has corrupted these people."

"Nanzhou Mansion, they are from Nanzhou Mansion. The Lonely Sky Tower has been broken, and the seal of the space passage has been lifted. Could it be that the power of the Ember Ruins came through a spatial passage? ”

Li Haomiao had never seen the Ember Ruins, but he also sensed this strange power.

"Little fish, this matter cannot be delayed. If it were really the embers, the world would be destroyed. ”

Yu Zhi also understood the seriousness of the matter. "I've sent a message to Scarlet Sakura. Letters will also be delivered to Kyoto soon. ”

Yu Zhi frowned, and now that he thinks about it carefully, everything is traceable.

Ying Rao came to the world, controlled Yan Xuan and them, and secretly plotted.

Yan Qi and the others appeared to destroy the Lonely Sky Tower, just to unseal the space passage and at the same time let the power of the Ember Ruins appear in the world.

However, why did Scarlet Sakura and King Mio destroy the Lonely Sky Tower? The human world is also eroded by the embers, and it doesn't do them any good?

Did this happen to bump into each other?

Scarlet Sakura said that they were at the behest of Emperor Lingkui.

They shouldn't know that the power of the Ember Ruins can come to the world through the spatial passage.

Yu Zhi looked at the man in the cell.

Suddenly, the delirious man began to convulse, his body trembling, and his bones cracked in his body.

The next moment, blood erupted from his mouth, and a sharp white bone suddenly pierced out of his chest.

The broken heart appeared in front of Yu Zhi's eyes.

"Dead?" Yu Zhi keenly sensed the aura of the Ember Ruins.

Immediately after, a slender bloodworm crawled out of the corpse's eye socket.

"Blood bugs?" Yu Zhi didn't hesitate, and a cyan flame burst out from his fingertips, incinerating the corpse and the blood worm with fangs.

The blood worms are afraid of the blue flames, and it is best to use the blue flames to burn the corpses eroded by the power of the embers.

"The power of the Ember Ruins has corrupted the human race, and it is actually able to breed blood worms."

Suddenly, Yu Zhi was stunned, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he thought of something that he had neglected.

"Third uncle, you said that you saved seven people, and the remaining six died, what about their corpses?"

Su Ruyu's face sank, and she also realized the seriousness of this matter.

......

The night is deep, and the stars and moon are shining, adding a bit of tranquility.

In the wilderness, a group of people gathered around the bonfire, drank cold water, and swallowed stiff steamed buns.

Fortunately, it is already summer, and this night will not be cold.

In the quiet of the night, in addition to the sound of snoring one after another, it was the sound of wood burning and breaking in the flames.

Where the firelight could not reach, the dirt on the ground loosened, and suddenly a hand stretched out, and then a figure crawled out of the ground.

Tattered clothes, pale faces, stumbling steps, like walking corpses, walked towards the people on the campfire.

"Ahh

The screams tore through the quiet of the night, and everyone woke up.

The middle-aged man kicked away the figure, covering his face with both hands, and his fingers kept digging at his eye sockets, as if he wanted to gouge out all the eyeballs.

"Big brother, what's wrong with you?"

"Something got into my eyes. Yes! ”

The middle-aged man snapped out an eyeball and knelt on the ground in pain.

The crowd retreated in horror.

Bang!

The middle-aged man's other eyeball suddenly burst, and a blood worm came out of the eye socket.

The bloodworm leaned out and looked curiously.

The next moment, the middle-aged man stood up, a strange smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Big brother," one shouted with concern.

The middle-aged man didn't respond, and with a kick of his feet, he rushed towards the crowd.

He pounced on one of them, like a beast biting at them.

It was just a breath, and there was a pool of blood and a dead body on the ground.

"Crazy, Wang Wu is crazy."

"Everyone, run away."

The middle-aged man pounced on a person, and the blood worms in his eye sockets shot out like poisonous snakes, slaughtering everyone.

"Xianggong, I'm your lady, Xianggong." The woman in the middle-aged man's hand exclaimed.

Rumble!

Two figures descended from the sky, shaking away the middle-aged man.

The people who came were Yu Zhi and Li Haomiao.

"It's a step too late." Yu Zhi sighed lowly, and with a snap of his fingers, the blue flames flew out and burned the middle-aged man.

Yu Zhi looked at the person on the ground who was killed by the middle-aged man, and the blue flames instantly shrouded the corpse, burning it to ashes.

The people who were originally resting had already fled, leaving only Yu Zhi and Li Haomiao.

This is the place where Su Ruyu said that the sixth body was buried.

When Yu Zhi came, he saw this scene.

"As I expected, after being eroded by the power of the Ember Ruins, blood worms will be bred in the body."

Yu Zhi looked around and made sure that nothing was missing before leaving.

Five days later, in the city of Yangzhou, Yu Zhi finally saw Scarlet Sakura.

Scarlet Sakura spoke: "When I received your summons, a similar situation occurred in Cangzhou Mansion. Both the Terrans and the Lingkui have signs of being eroded by the Ember Ruins. ”

"Yingrao controlled Yan Qi and the others, and destroyed the Lonely Sky Tower, just to attract the embers."

Yu Zhi looked at Scarlet Sakura and asked, "Why did Emperor Lingkui ask you and King Qingmio to destroy the Lonely Sky Tower?" Is it just a coincidence? ”

Scarlet Sakura glanced at Yu Zhi and said, "Disrespecting the emperor is a capital crime." ”

Yu Zhi stuck out his tongue, knowing that this was a violation of the taboo of the Lingkui clan.

Emperor Lingkui is the emperor of the Lingkui clan, absolute authority and absolute control.

For countless years, no one could replace the position of Emperor Lingkui.

Immediately, Scarlet Sakura said again: "Sakura came to the world from that spatial passage deep in the desert of Western Desert Prefecture. When she appeared in Ximozhou, she had already controlled Yan Qi and the others. ”

Yu Zhi was surprised: "There are also spatial passages in the desert? ”

"Yes. However, according to Changshengzun, that spatial passage had already been destroyed. Otherwise, the Terrans would not be left unguarded. ”

"Now that it's destroyed, Sakura can still pass?"

"I can't say why, maybe it was with the help of the power of the ember ruins, forcibly came to the world. Anyway, it is absolutely impossible to use that passage now. ”

Yu Zhi also understands this. Otherwise, Sakura wouldn't have to go to great lengths to destroy the Lonely Sky Tower.

"The power of the Ember Ruins has invaded the human world. Didn't you emperor say something? If the human world becomes the next Lingkui ancestral land, the human race and the Lingkui clan will have to finish playing. ”

Scarlet Sakura clasped her hands on her chest, making the already tall peaks even more upright. "The Emperor has never appeared."

In just one sentence, Yu Zhi smelled some conspiracy.

"What are you and Immortal Venerable going to do?" Yu Zhi asked.

Scarlet Sakura didn't answer the question, but said, "Three days ago, in a mountain range in Nanzhou Prefecture, a distorted space appeared. It is said that some people from the Luo tribe have stepped into it and have not stepped out until now. ”

Yu Zhi thought about it, and an answer appeared in his heart that he didn't want to accept the most.

"You mean, it's possible that it's embers?"

Scarlet Sakura also showed a solemn look. "The Ice King has already detected that the spatial distortion indeed exudes an eerie power like an ember ruin. This power can deceive people's hearts and make people step into it without even realizing it. ”

"It's the same as when Ember Ruins first appeared in the Ancestral Land."

Yu Zhi smiled bitterly: "If it is really an ember ruin, I am afraid that the world will be like the Lingkui Ancestral Land." ”

Yu Zhi has been to the Lingkui Ancestral Land, and has seen the Lingkui Ancestral Land after the erosion of the ember ruins, which is the apocalyptic scene where it is difficult for any life to survive.

Now the Ember Ruins have also appeared in the world.

Yu Zhi was powerless and equally desperate.

You must know that even a peerless figure like Emperor Lingkui can't stop the erosion of the Ember Ruins, let alone the current human world.

Yu Zhi looked at the indifferent Scarlet Sakura, showed a smile again, approached Scarlet Sakura and asked, "Do you have an idea to deal with the Ember Ruins?" ”

The embers have already appeared in the world.

Scarlet Sakura is still so unhurried, Yu Zhi secretly scolded herself for being too stupid, how could she not think of this.

I only heard Scarlet Sakura say: "This king listened to the emperor once said that there are two ways to destroy the ember ruins. The first is to directly resist the power of the Ember Ruins from the outside, and shatter the Ember Ruins with the power of the sky. This method must be completed by the powerhouses of the Fourteenth Realm. ”

"The second is to destroy the embers from within. There is a core inside the Ember Ruins, which is the source of the Ember Ruins' power. As long as the core is destroyed, the embers will collapse. ”
