Chapter 184: Ghost Order
In order to avoid making a fuss and wasting manpower, they rushed up in a hurry to startle snakes, and the requirements of the ghost killing order were written more clearly, the method of killing ghosts in neighboring states, the number and proportion of monks of different grades drawn from each sect, the size of the ghost clan to be killed by the ghost killing order, and the characteristics of the formation, etc.
Issuing a ghost killing order, only the top sects are eligible. All Xia Kingdom monks, as long as they find ghost cultivation information, must send it to the top sect as soon as possible.
The top sects have no more than ten grasps of the situation of the cultivation forces in each state, which naturally includes the situation of the cultivation forces in the four prefectures of Mengyuan, Guanliao, Shengjing and Ganning.
Basically, the purpose of the ghost killing order is to concentrate the cultivation force equivalent to ten times the ghost cultivation power, form a momentum of Mount Tai's overwhelming peak, besiege and kill the ghost clan, and strive to kill all the ghost cultivators in the ghost clan settlement.
This time, Huatianzong and Guanghan Palace passed the sound for thousands of miles, and agreed to issue a ghost killing order, that is, the cultivation realm of the four states, the Jindan period will draw one out of five, and the foundation building period will draw one every forty, and if it is less than five or forty, the number will be made up by uniting with the nearby sects, and then the joint lottery will be decided.
Of course, in fact, due to the time relationship, the cultivation forces that were able to arrive in time and let the ghost cultivators be surrounded before they had time to react were only three or four times as large.
However, this was enough to make the ghost cultivator despair.
Because, ghost cultivation can only defend according to the formation, so he has a little capital to resist, if he goes out to face the battle, in the face of three or four times the encirclement force, how can he have a chance of winning?
But if you don't go out to fight, when the tenfold forces of human cultivation are assembled, in the face of strong strength, no matter how favorable the terrain and how strong the formation is, it is useless. When it comes to the essence of magic weapons, formations, and talismans, how can ghost cultivators compare to other cultivators?
Hua Tianzong's ghost killing order, naturally the first time, passed to Wang Xian's hands, because Yunhu Prefecture is not a neighboring state of Mengyuan Prefecture, therefore, this time to kill ghosts does not need Hua Tianzong to send someone to go, even if it is sent, it will not be able to catch up with the big war because of the long distance.
Therefore, Hua Tianzong told Wang Xian and the three of them that they must actively seek war and not fall into the prestige of the sect. The trace of this ghost cultivator was originally discovered by Hua Tianzong passing by, and since Wang Xian and the three of them participated in the search team and participated in the encirclement and suppression, it was naturally incumbent on them.
Wang Xian carefully read the content of the ghost killing order, which had clear regulations on the location of the monks of the four states to assemble. The top sects, led by Guanghan Palace and Yashengmen, Guanghan Palace is responsible for the northeast corner of the ghost clan, and Yashengmen is responsible for the northwest corner of the ghost clan, in order to block the way for the ghost clan to flee north.
If the ghost clan escapes north to the border between Mengyuan Prefecture and Beiluo Kingdom, the encirclement and suppression will fail. It is the basic principle not to enter the country of Beiluo and cause a great war between the two countries in the cultivation realm. And in the southern border area of Beiluo Country, there are relatively powerful ghost cultivators gathered.
One of the three ghost lands, the ghost land of Mongwonju, is an unarmed buffer zone on the border between the two countries under the ice field at the junction of Mongwonju and Beiluoguo.
Many years ago, the monks of the Xia Kingdom had gathered in a large scale to encircle and suppress them, but they immediately moved from the underground to the Northern Luo Kingdom. Restricted by the rules of the cultivation realm, the monks of the Xia Kingdom could only sigh with hope.
The cultivation realm of the Northern Luo Kingdom, especially the many demon sects with the largest power on its southern border, out of the consideration of using ghost cultivation as a buffer force to block the invasion and harassment of the Xia Kingdom's cultivation realm, blocked the ghost cultivation in the border area without suppressing it, staring at it without moving, and preventing but not attacking. Let them always occupy the spiritual veins here, recuperate, and gradually sit on.
The other first-class sects were sent to garrison the southwest and southeast of the ghost tribe's settlement, fifty miles away. The early formation of a four-sided encirclement is the first goal of the ghost killing order.
In order to prevent the small sects from coming first before the monks arrived, the forces of each state were all along the way, constantly approaching and meeting with the first-class sects or top-level sects in the state, so that they could enter within the three hundred miles of the ghost clan, otherwise they could not enter lightly.
The top-level sects naturally attach the most importance to this matter, so although they are farther away, they are still the ones who arrive first, after all, they have the top-level flying mystic weapons to rush with all their might, and they don't need to wait for the gathering of other sects in this state like the first-class sects.
Guanghan Palace was the first to arrive, and they also flew at a height of more than 6,000 zhang in accordance with the requirements of the ghost killing order, and did not use their divine sense to investigate. Instead, he met Wang Xian and his party as promised, and rendezvous at the height of the ghost settlement.
They led the team by the Lord of the Ice Spirit Palace, Cao Chaofeng, the Great Elder at the end of the Jindan Dynasty. He boarded the spaceship, watched the contents of the ghost search jade card, immediately received the ghost search card, led Wang Xian and his party, returned to the passenger compartment of the big ship where he was, and began to give orders.
This big ship is a bit similar to Hua Tianzong's escort giant ship, but the shape and size of the ship are slightly different.
The Ghost Killing Order's regulations on the number of people to be transferred from each sect are both requirements and restrictions. In order to prevent these sects with mutual grievances from liquidating on the way back from completing the mission, the Ghost Killing Order must not allow each sect to exceed the proportion of the number of people transferred, otherwise it will be regarded as a conspiracy and expelled from the encirclement and suppression team. In the event of a strict top-level sect, some of the monks' belongings will also be confiscated as punishment.
However, there is no limit to the number of people selected by the top sects.
The issuance of the order of cultivation is of course for the top sects to assume greater responsibility, but it is also an opportunity to show their strength, deter Xiaoxiao, and give orders to establish their authority. Therefore, the lineup sent by the Guanghan Palace this time is relatively large.
In addition to Cao Chaofeng, the Great Elder of the Ice Spirit Palace, who led the team, there were also seven Jindan Middle and Middle Stage Elders of the Ice Spirit Palace, as well as twenty-six Foundation Building Stage monks after the rank of twenty. Elder Li Lamin was also among them, as well as an elder who was proficient in the ice formation.
This lineup is no longer inferior to the strength of the ghost clan monks. With them, the other sects that came to gather had the backbone. After all, ghost cultivators are not vegetarians, they have been entrenched here for many years, and they have the convenience of the terrain and the advantages of the formation.
Without the tall one taking the lead, the short ones will scatter their hearts. When people's hearts are scattered, it will be difficult to bring the team of the Ghost Eradication Alliance. The top sects are very clear that the so-called alliances are all leading sects. Many wall-headed grasses came to cheer and beat the water dogs. When the situation is unfavorable, they are the ones who run the fastest.
Elder Cao Chaofeng was obviously very experienced, and after contacting Yashengmen, he knew that Yashengmen and his party would not arrive until three days later, so Cao Chaofeng immediately divided the power of the sect into two, and half of them were stationed fifty miles northeast of the ghost clan, establishing a gathering place for monks in Guanliaozhou. The other half was stationed fifty miles northwest of the Yashengmen, which was under the responsibility of the Yashengmen, and was temporarily stationed here to establish a gathering place for the monks of the Holy Kingdom.
This deployment is to block the way for the ghost clan to flee north first. In the other three directions, east, west, and south, there was a steady stream of monks on the way to come, and the ghost clan was targeted by the ghost search card again, and it was not easy to escape.
Soon, Cao Chaofeng's big ship sailed to the predetermined location, stopped on the ground, and activated the formation. The body of the giant ship was hidden in a white mist, and its divine sense could not be penetrated.
Wang Xian and his entourage, along with another ship, followed by Li Lamin, the elder of the Ice Spirit Temple, temporarily stationed at the predetermined garrison of the Yashengmen.
When the Guanghan Palace spaceship landed on the ground, under the ice field where the ghost clan gathered, many ghost cultivators discovered the movement of the spaceship. Although the spaceship is incomprehensible, when it landed, it was fifty miles away from the ghost clan, but there were many ghost cultivators underground, and there were still monks who were close to the spaceship twenty miles, and soon discovered the clue and reported to the great patriarch of the ghost clan, Luo Kill, who was cultivated at the end of Jindan.
The underground palace of Luo Shu is built in imitation of the royal tomb of the Xia Kingdom, which is simple and atmospheric, with glowstone lighting. Even if there was no lighting, it was not much of a problem for ghost cultivators, but in order to make it easier for the imprisoned human cultivators and the ghost cultivators with low cultivation to see more clearly, glowstone was still used.
Luo Slay immediately sneaked underground to eighteen miles closer to the ship. The base camp of the ghost clan, the ghost nest, is more than 50 miles in radius, and the center of its underground palace is the palace of Luo Kill. The center of the palace was fifty miles away from where the spaceship docked, and when Luo Shu moved to the very edge of the underground palace, it was still eighteen miles away from the spaceship.
Luo killed eighteen miles underground, and with enough divine sense to investigate, he soon found that this ship was not simple. Although the divine sense is not clear, the aura on the hull and the spiritual power fluctuations contained in it are by no means simple flying mysteries, at least high-level flying mysteries. And such a large stroke of the high-level mystical weapon often means that there are likely to be Jindan stage monks in it.
