Chapter 3379: The Fall of [Kunlun Capital] (40) - The Escape of [Undissolved Bones]
Ren Duyou didn't say anything on the way back with Xiang Yuechan.
The old demon had his own ideas. The [Earth Dwellers] were indeed forced to march to the surface, but the timing was indeed wrong - in his opinion, since they were able to escape from the [Heavenly Prison], they would definitely seek revenge on the [Alliance].
But not now.
His original plan was to wait until the next battle against the [Millennium Demon Cult] and then make a strong comeback - especially after finding the [Demon Seed] spirit child, which would be a much better start than the last war against the Demon Cult.
But the emergence of the [Realm of Nothingness] made all the initial plans go awry.
——Why did [Heavenly Prison] break?
——Is the appearance of [Realm of Nothingness] too coincidental?
In Xiang Yuechan's words, the [Realm of Nothingness] has been expanding madly in the past month or so. Otherwise, at the original speed, the Cult of God would have needed at least ten to twenty years to deploy it.
Ren Duyou had no time to find out the reason why the [Realm of Nothingness] intensified... Inside [Kunlun City], the evil demons that escaped from the [Heavenly Prison] were still fighting fiercely.
"Yuechan Priestess, after rushing out of the surface, where did you go?"
……
The number of [Earth-dwelling people] is indeed abnormally large, and most of the glamorous [Kunlun people] do not understand the terrifying reproductive ability of [Earth-dwelling people].
But Ren Duyou didn't believe that the Earth Dwellers could destroy Kunlun City by just going on an expedition to the surface.
[Kunlun Capital] has so many holy places, [Nantianmen], the Immortal Court Army, and an average cultivation level of [super class], as well as an equally large population, [Earth Dwellers] expedition to the surface, and it has 500 years less time for development than before. It would be strange if it is not beaten into a younger brother.
Xiang Yuechan obviously knew this, so the initial plan was to lead the [Earth Dwellers] to land on the surface and advance to the northwest of the [Alliance] as quickly as possible, fighting as they went. Regardless of casualties, as long as 30% of the [Earth Dwellers] could reach the [Sea of Sky] and then rely on the terrain of the [Sea of Sky], there would still be a chance to make a comeback.
In the [Alliance], there are some secluded elders of the divine religion in various states and regions. As long as the news of the birth of the [Demon Seed] spirit child comes out, it will be possible to gather the remaining forces in various places.
This is Xiang Yuechan's plan.
"The expansion of the Realm of Nothingness has disrupted all our plans." Xiang Yuechan said helplessly: "At present, we can only take one step at a time. I know that this path is undoubtedly fatal to the Divine Cult, which has finally accumulated some strength. But as long as the remaining fire is still there, the will of the Great Demon God will not disappear! Moreover, we have found the spirit boy!"
Ren Duyou suddenly felt that these new generation of believers in the religion were actually quite difficult.
In the last war between the Demon Cult and the Divine Cult, the Divine Cult really enjoyed itself. At its peak, it even occupied half of [Kunlun City], not to mention all the states in the [Alliance]. It can be said that the entire territory was in full bloom.
But the business was too big and the collapse came extremely quickly. After regaining the lost territories, the completely enraged holy places and the Immortal Court Army dealt an unprecedentedly severe blow to the Divine Religion.
[Heavenly Prison] The prison below the sixth floor was once overcrowded, and no one knew how many people from the Divine Religion were executed afterwards.
This also caused the Divine Religion to recover extremely slowly... Xiang Yuechan's generation was really poor when they started the business - Ren Duyou thought back to when he and his group started the Divine Religion, at least the previous generation had left behind a lot of foundations...
Of course, Ren Duyou had no intention of apologizing to Xiang Yuechan, a junior, for being an elder of the Divine Religion and having wiped out all the Divine Religion's wealth.
——I have taken away the inheritance with my own ability, why should I apologize?
"Well, your idea is not good." Ren Duyou groaned, "But it's not your fault. After all, what happened in the outside world was too sudden. The Divine Religion needs to strengthen its intelligence gathering in the future."
Xiang Yuechan remained silent. If it weren't for the fact that the development of the Divine Religion required the power of these old demons...
"Does Mr. Ren have any advice?"
"The development of the Divine Religion cannot be separated from money and food." Ren Duyou's eyes were shining. "Since we have to fight, then we should fight hard. While [Kunlun Capital] is in chaos right now, it is entirely possible for us to seize the resources of a holy land!"
Xiang Yuechan couldn't help but frown and reminded: "Mr. Ren... We don't have a spirit boat warship that can attack the holy land."
Generally speaking, even if all the [Earth Dwellers] can log in, they are just a group of...infantry.
"I'm talking about the [Shennong] Holy Land!" Ren Duyou chuckled. "The [Shennong] Holy Land controls most of the [Alliance]'s elixirs. It's incredibly wealthy! And, more importantly, the [Shennong] Holy Land is the only one that's exposed to the public, besides the [Nantianmen]... In fact, its defense is far inferior to that of the [Nantianmen]!"
"This matter..." Xiang Yuechan pondered, "I still need to report it to Ling Tong."
"The opportunity cannot be missed. Hesitation will lead to defeat." Ren Duyou took a deep look. "Do you know why the Divine Religion had the upper hand back then, but was defeated by the [Alliance]? It was because some people in the Divine Religion hesitated. Some people thought that they could already share the world with the [Alliance] and there was no need to cause more casualties. As a result, the Divine Religion shed blood!"
——Are you sure it’s not because you old guys are having too much fun?
"Wait for me to meet the spirit boy."
……
Palace of bones.
The space of about 60 square meters was divided into two rooms, front and back... When Xiang Yuechan walked into the front room, the young man in white was painting.
There are many paintings here, almost covering the walls, all of which are scenery of mountains and rivers... But among the scenery, there is always a graceful figure of a woman.
Xiang Yuechan had never seen Lingtong paint the front view of this woman.
This person doesn't look like a demon child from a religion at all; he is clearly a child of a noble family.
"Yuechan, you're back. I hope Senior Ren didn't make things difficult for you." The young man smiled slightly.
"Mr. Ren is highly respected, so he will not embarrass a junior like me." Xiang Yuechan knelt on the ground, resting her forehead on her hands. "Spirit boy, don't worry... In addition, Mr. Ren gave some suggestions about our expedition plan, and I hope you can make the decision."
"Raise your head first." the young man said in a soft voice.
Xiang Yuechan raised her head slowly. As a priestess of the Divine Religion, she was dedicated to serving the Demon Lord... Since the Demon Lord was not around, she could only serve the Demon Child.
The young man walked over, held the priestess's face in both hands, and opened it, revealing a pretty face.
"Spiritual boy..."
The young man shook his head and said, "I've said it many times. If it's just you and me, you can just call me Ling'er."
"I dare not." Xiang Yuechan quickly shook her head.
Young man... Ling'er said softly, "You were the one who saved me from the dirty river. If it weren't for you, I would have been buried in the belly of the dirty beast, not to mention awakening to become a [Demon Seed]. You are my only friend here, so why not call me by my name?"
"Everything is guided by the Great Demon God." Xiang Yuechan said hurriedly: "The return of the spirit boy is a predetermined fate. Even if it is not me, there will be someone else."
"Since you are a priestess, you should obey my orders, right?"
"...Spirit boy, the matter of the [Earth-dwelling People] marching is imminent." Xiang Yuechan thought for a moment and said, "When the Divine Religion is settled, I will... obey you."
"Then what did Ren Duyou say?" Ling'er asked with a bored look on her face.
"Mr. Ren's idea is that we can take advantage of the chaos in Kunlun Capital to attack the Shennong Holy Land and..."
"Alright, alright." Ling'er suddenly waved her hand, "Since you've come to persuade me, I guess you've already agreed with this old guy's idea, then let's do it according to your wishes."
"This……"
Ling'er returned to the table and picked up the paintbrush. "I have no interest in the affairs of the Divine Religion. Go ahead. You can represent me."
Xiang Yuechan gritted her teeth and said softly: "Ling, Ling'er, the overall situation is more important, you can't be so careless."
"It sounds so nice." Ling'er chuckled.
Xiang Yuechan was quite helpless... She didn't know why this generation of [Demon Species] spirit children didn't show any ambition at all, but only liked romance.
It is said that the spiritual boy likes me, but he never asks me to serve him.
He may say that he has no crush on her, but he always likes to tease her... Perhaps, it's because he already has someone he cares about in his heart.
Xiang Yuechan subconsciously glanced at the landscape paintings scattered on the ground...still could not see the true appearance of the beauty in the landscape.
"Just do as Ren Duyou said." Ling'er said suddenly, "For many years, the [Shennong] Holy Land has been mainly engaged in the business of elixirs, and its military strength is indeed not high. As for the Holy Lord of [Shennong], he is also a man with great ambitions but little talent, so there is no need to worry about him. As for the [Shennong] Holy Son Jiang Tao, he is kind and honest by nature, indecisive, and unlikely to accomplish anything great. It is indeed unreasonable not to attack the [Shennong] Holy Land."
Xiang Yuechan was stunned.
Ling Er said to herself, "It's just that the [Alliance] has been cooperating with the [Shennong] Holy Land, and there is a fairy court army stationed there. You should pay more attention to this."
"Okay...ok."
……
"What did the spirit boy say?"
Ren Duyou had been waiting outside the White Bone Palace. When he saw Xiang Yuechan coming out, he stepped forward to ask.
Xiang Yuechan said calmly: "Lingtong has agreed to Ren Lao's proposal. But Lingtong said that there is an immortal army hidden in the [Shennong] Holy Land, and we should be careful."
She talked about the [Demon Species]’s evaluation of the [Shennong] Holy Land.
Ren Duyou was surprised and said, "The spirit boy actually knows all this? Hasn't he always lived in the [Dirty River World]?"
Xiang Yuechan said calmly: "How can you and I understand the ability of the spirit boy?"
Ren Duyou was puzzled, thinking that it was impossible to create something out of nothing... As a priestess of the cult, your intelligence was poor, but the spirit boy knew more than you, so what use was you?
"Speaking of which, how did you find the reincarnated [demon species] spirit child?" Ren Duyou asked suddenly.
"Of course it was found in the [Dirty River Forbidden Zone] according to what was mentioned in the prophecy." Xiang Yuechan frowned, "Mr. Ren has already seen the [World-Destroying Black Lotus Seal], could it be fake?"
"Of course I have no doubts." Ren Duyou laughed and said, "I am just curious about how the spirit boy lived in the [Dirty River Forbidden Zone] before you found him."
An image flashed through her mind of a young man covered in mud, walking out of the dirty river with a confused look on his face.
—Girl, I accidentally fell down. Do you know the way to leave?
……
Xiang Yuechan waved her hand and said, "Mr. Ren, let's stop talking nonsense and deduce what will happen when we land on the surface later."
"Okay." Ren Duyou nodded seriously.
……
……
……
……
[Kunlun Capital], the Heavenly Court Army’s blocking front.
Although the escaped demons were ferocious, they had to admit one thing... After the carnival of escaping, they felt extremely weak, and faced with the powerful Immortal Court Army, they were quickly overwhelmed and beaten.
Some demons, seeing that the situation was not going well, began to spread out and flee in different directions... Some demons from the first 1 to 6 levels were also suppressed again.
"What a mob..."
"There is no other way. There are tens of thousands of evil masters. Who is not the best in the world?"
"I don't know what's going on with Master Ren..."
"No, no, no, there's nothing to look forward to..." An old demon murmured at this time: "Compared to this, I care more about those evil people in the Lotus Sect... TM, I clearly felt a trace of the evil thoughts of the Lotus Saint, and the [Heavenly Prison] was broken. Could it be that this prison break was really planned by those evil people in the Lotus Sect?"
"I saw a few old guys from the Lotus Sect. They have been missing since they broke out of prison."
At this moment, a huge fire suddenly came from the distance. An [Alliance] spirit boat battleship caught fire instantly and crashed into another spirit boat battleship.
At the same time, a small-scale disturbance occurred in the formation on the left side of the Immortal Court Army - a spirit boat warship was successfully hijacked and captured by several evil demons.
Several evil demons who seized the spirit boat directly drove the spirit boat warship and fled out of the battlefield at an accelerated speed.
"Well... actually, a mob has its advantages. At least no one can guess when a crazy person will appear."
Several old demons from the Divine Religion looked at each other at this time.
They were imprisoned on the eighteenth floor, and it was indeed notorious for them. However, in the eighteenth floor, there were always some existences that were older than them... They were existences that had been suppressed since the creation of the [Heavenly Prison].
Legend has it that among these eighteen layers, there are even some even more ancient existences that existed before the establishment of [Canglan Dongtian]... the ancient witch clan!
The legend of the ancient witch clan has been circulating on the eighteenth floor, but several old demons have never actually seen it. On the one hand, it is because the eighteenth floor is a completely dark world where you can't see your hand in front of you... On the other hand, they are actually just younger brothers when facing those ancient trolls and ancient evil cultivators on the eighteenth floor.
I can't afford to offend you, I really can't afford to offend you...
……
There will always be some that slip through the net.
When a burning fairy army spirit boat warship suddenly crashed into the [Qinglong District], the order and balance that was originally well controlled by the [Nantianmen] law enforcement was instantly broken.
An evil demon who had once been notorious thousands of years ago walked out of the flames of the falling Spirit Boat warship, instantly grabbed a man, and bit his throat...
……
After a while, a law enforcement team arrived at the place where the Lingzhou battleship crashed.
All I saw were the corpses of the Immortal Court Army hanging on the wreckage of the warship...and the destroyed streets were filled with blood.
“It’s so tragic…”
"yes……"
The crash of a battleship resulted in countless lives lost.
"Wait...what is that?"
From a distance, a corpse on the street suddenly raised his hand.
"There's still a survivor! Hurry, save him!" The law enforcement officers were suddenly startled and were about to drive there.
But when they arrived, their faces changed drastically. They saw that this moving [corpse] was actually covered with dense purple hair...
Roar--! ! !
A corpse with purple fur suddenly flew over, and the law enforcement officer instinctively swung his weapon and swept the corpse away.
The corpse's neck twisted instantly, but after staggering a few times, it got up again.
A bad feeling arose in the hearts of the law enforcement team.
“Corpse…Corpse!!”
On the long street and on the wreckage of the warship, corpses that should have been dead seemed to come alive one after another. Purple hairs were rapidly growing on their bodies, and a few were white...some even grew green hairs.
"Zombie!" The older law enforcement officer gasped, "It's a zombie! Could it be that a terrifying corpse has escaped from the [Heavenly Prison]?!"
"I remember my great grandfather once said that there was once an [Unbreakable Bone] that was taken into the [Heavenly Prison]..."
……
……
"What, [No Bone Dissolving]?"
In front of the secret place of [Nantianmen], Jing Fenglin and a group of elders received the report sent back by the front-line law enforcement almost at the same time.
"Well... about six thousand years ago, there was indeed an [Unbreakable Bone] that was taken into the [Heavenly Prison]. Legend has it that in order to subdue this [Unbreakable Bone], a total of four ancient emperors were dispatched... but in the end, more than a dozen large cities were emptied, and tens of millions of people died tragically in that war."
"An Undissolved Bone means an endless supply of zombies... it's really troublesome." Jing Fenglin sighed and said, "Such a taboo thing should be destroyed! Is the Heavenly Prison keeping it for fun?"
"Jing boy, watch your words!"
"We must find this [Unbreakable Bone] as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous!"
"I have sent a message to have the Divine Constable and the Four Famous Constables return!"
"By the time they come back, it will be too late!" an elder said angrily, "They won't have a chance to appear, so we should send out the special flying sword brigade! The commander and his men need to guard the [Source of Spiritual Power]. For now, I propose that [Southern Heaven Gate] enter a wartime state!"
Jing Fenglin frowned and said, "Wartime state? Wouldn't that be too much? Although the [Heavenly Prison] has been broken, the Immortal Court Army seems to be able to hold on for now. Although this [Unbreakable Bone] is terrifying, it has been imprisoned for so many years. How much strength does it have left? The special brigade should be able to handle it."
"Let's vote!" the elder said directly.
Then the elders present expressed their agreement.
"Okay, okay, you guys go ahead and have fun." Jing Fenglin was furious. Although [Incorruptible Bones] was dangerous, he felt that the problem with [Source of Spiritual Power] was even bigger.
This thing also exists in his hometown, the [Seven Absolute Holy Land], so it is impossible for it to suddenly get out of control for no reason - thinking about the fact that [Ge Lao Yuan] asked [Nantianmen] to send troops to [Chaoge] and [Fangzhang Xianshan].
——TM, could it be that there is also a problem with the [Source of Spiritual Power] of those two holy places?
……
……
“Help…Help—!”
"what--!!"
"Hurry up..."
On the streets and in the alleys, people were fleeing in terror... Behind them, a group of dark-skinned, white-haired creatures were biting anyone they saw.
Some people tried to resist, but were immediately overwhelmed by several, dozens, or even dozens of these "things", which sucked the blood out of their bodies.
"The speed is still too slow..."
Among the [things], a young man with a pale face, broken trouser legs, barefoot and red pupils was walking casually.
I want more delicious blood...
Even though he had already passed the stage where he needed blood and essence to sustain himself, after thousands of years of imprisonment, his desire for blood and essence had expanded infinitely.
The young man suddenly stopped.
Turning sideways, he saw a fat, smart dog in the yard in front of him. It bared its teeth and barked at him through the iron bars.
The young man frowned... How dare a small spirit dog roar at him?
However, at this moment,
"Zha Hu, it's not time to eat yet, please be quiet."
Suddenly, a woman's voice without much emotion came from the yard...
