Chapter 142: Breaking Through with a Shining Sword (Seeking Subscriptions)
Under the leadership of the Ghost King, the originally chaotic and individually fighting evil spirits began to gather and surge towards the direction of Spirit Communication City.
From the projection, the scene appeared particularly terrifying.
The nocturnal evil spirits continuously absorbed wandering evil spirits, causing their ranks to grow stronger.
Under the Ghost King's summons, all evil spirits would obey his commands.
By the time they reached Spirit Communication City, their numbers had exceeded a thousand.
This was probably all the remaining people on Hexin Island.
In just one month, most of the people had turned into ghosts, with only Zhang Chi's trio and Wenren Li, the Body of the First Star, remaining unaffected.
The abnormal movements of the evil spirits immediately caught Wenren Li's attention.
She had been following behind Zhang Chi these days, but had not attempted to get close to him.
Because she noticed that Zhang Chi was deliberately avoiding her.
Although she didn't know the reason, she maintained a cautious attitude by keeping her distance.
Although she also felt sorry for the ghost energy wasted by Zhang Chi, her body couldn't digest too much at the moment.
Excessive improvement beyond the limits of the body would make one temporarily strong, but leave hidden dangers for the future.
The two of them had maintained this unspoken agreement for some time, until today, when Wenren Li suddenly sensed a large number of ghosts approaching.
What's going on?
Are these ghosts coming in groups?
But she hadn't fully digested the gains from this short period of time, and now there were even more, too much to consume, she simply couldn't consume it all!
She looked towards the direction where Zhang Chi and the others were, guarded by crows and Chen Runyu, who hadn't noticed the approaching evil spirits at all.
The movements of the ghosts were extremely stealthy, making it difficult for those with low spiritual perception to detect them.
Despite their grand appearance, they made almost no sound.
This was the strength of hunters, the sounds they emitted were beyond human hearing.
As the Body of the First Star, Wenren Li could hear them, which was why she could become the nemesis of the ghost race.
All their disguises were useless in front of the Body of the First Star.
However, even with such a large number of ghost followers, Wenren Li didn't have the confidence to win.
They say that ants can bite an elephant to death, but Wenren Li didn't have much experience in facing so many ghosts, so her first thought was to hide.
She picked up a stone and threw it towards the direction where Chen Runyu was, and Chen Runyu, hearing the sound of the wind, swiftly and fiercely split the stone with his sword.
Noticing the change in the situation, Gu Youyou, who was in the middle of cultivation, immediately switched with Zhang Chi.
"What's wrong? Is there a situation?"
Chen Runyu cautiously said, "A stone flew over, not sure if someone threw it."
Zhang Chi quickly reacted upon hearing this and immediately woke up the sleeping Caiyu.
"Caiyu, the situation is critical, only you can save everyone now."
Caiyu was in a bad mood and was about to explode, but upon hearing Zhang Chi's words, a sense of responsibility instantly weighed on her.
Noble Prince Caiyu would never let his friends fall into danger.
She quickly regained her spirits, flew up, and scanned her surroundings with sharp eyes.
"Oh no, many ugly men and women are coming towards us, and there is no path to escape them."
After observing, Caiyu quickly searched for escape routes. She had been doing this for days and was quite skilled at it.
However, there were too many evil creatures, and they were coming from every direction. There was simply no way to avoid them.
Zhang Chi instantly realized the seriousness of the problem.
He guessed that the stone was thrown by Wenren Li. They had been following him for so many days, and she wouldn't have come unless there was an emergency.
Caiyu's reconnaissance confirmed Zhang Chi's judgment.
The evil spirits on the island used to fight each other, so why did they suddenly gather together?
The situation was not good.
It seemed that even though he had been hiding and keeping a low profile, the puppeteer behind the scenes was not planning to let him go.
Since that was the case...
He would no longer pretend.
Surrendering was not an option. Once he entered the Sword Sect, he would draw his sword when facing enemies. It was the most basic requirement.
Putting aside personal morals, Zhang Chi still had some courage.
You can bully me, but you can't take my life.
Anyone who threatened his life would have to pay the price.
"Caiyu, find a weak spot in the encirclement, and we'll fight our way out!"
"Okay! Princess Caiyu will definitely find a way out for you!"
Caiyu felt a great sense of responsibility and was ready to ignite.
Her feathers became even more radiant, as if they could emit light.
"Follow my lead!"
Caiyu made herself shine and led the way. If the situation changed too quickly, she might not have time to navigate.
Behind her, the group of crow guardians was also quite spectacular.
Outside the secret realm, the audience became nervous.
Zhang Chi and the others were about to face their biggest crisis. From the audience's perspective, they could see that the evil spirits were advancing in a fan shape towards Zhang Chi's location.
It was like a carpet search, and it was impossible for strangers to escape the perception of the evil creatures.
However, Spirit Communication City was not a fully regulated city, so the number of evil spirits was not evenly distributed in different directions.
Therefore, there must be a weak spot in this encirclement, and Caiyu was guiding them towards the weakest point.
Knowing that the evil spirits were approaching, Zhang Chi did not fear or wait for death. Instead, he drew his sword and prepared to break through. This kind of spirit didn't need words to be felt.
The disciples of the Sword Sect couldn't help but be moved to tears as they watched this scene.
This is our eldest senior brother!
Even if the enemy is numerous and we are few, we still have an unyielding spirit.
Zhang Chi's actions have not only moved Sword Sect, but also many others.
In these past few days, all they have seen in Zhang Chi is his perseverance and kindness, and now they can feel his determination.
No matter how many evil spirits there are, as long as they don't give up, even if they lose in the end, they are still worthy of pride.
"The power of the netherworld has actually decreased!"
Wu Nian's mentality is a bit shaken.
He sent people out to end the remaining good intentions on the island, but because of their existence, the audience has retained their good intentions.
With strong good intentions, evil intentions are naturally suppressed.
And now, evil intentions are further suppressed.
Even though there are only a few living people left on the island, and so many evil things have happened on the island, can a few people's good intentions really reverse the situation?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
While Wu Nian is raging in his helplessness, Zhang Chi has already engaged with the evil spirits.
Zhang Chi steps on the giant python, swinging his sword forward.
"The water of the great river comes from the sky, flowing to the sea and never returning!"
Zhang Chi's long sword dances wildly, wherever the sword light goes, evil spirits turn back.
In fact, stabbing the heart is the same, but when Zhang Chi looks at these ghosts, he always thinks of zombies in a biohazard crisis.
If he doesn't cut off their heads, he won't feel at ease.
With the blessing of True Qi, the ordinary sword in his hand has always remained sharp.
And his Great River Sword Technique has already reached perfection. When he and Bai Su combine, they are like the leading wave of a surging river, ruthlessly charging through the crowd of evil spirits.
Under their leadership, Chen Runyu and Zi Mian follow closely behind, while Wenren Li silently trails a hundred steps away.
The audience only thinks that she is using Zhang Chi to clear the way for herself, but considering that she was the one who caused the commotion earlier, no one is bothering her.
At this time, there are only four living people left on the island, so it is indeed necessary to unite.
Of course, there are also some people who think that Wenren Li is ugly and cunning, using Zhang Chi as a tool.
She lets Zhang Chi handle all the danger, while she enjoys the benefits.
In the inn, Wenren Tingyu watches the projection and drinks a large bowl of wine.
With so many evil spirits, Wenren Li definitely won't survive, and when she dies, no one will like her.
How clever!
In the secret realm, Zhang Chi and the others finally broke through the first line of defense, but Caiyu quickly gave a warning.
"They have discovered us, a large number of people are gathering ahead."
"Have you started micro-managing, Caiyu? Find a place with fewer enemies and continue to break through!"
Zhang Chi makes a new judgment.
The other side is indeed coming for them, trying to surround them.
This also means that Zhang Chi cannot stop. Once trapped in a encirclement, with two fists against four hands, there will definitely be danger.
And if they keep breaking through in the direction with fewer people, killing enemy members and pulling their forces, they can maintain a situation where they only engage with a small number of enemies.
Although the demons have become stronger after their fall, Zhang Chi's trio, along with a hundred-year-old and a Transcendent Level navigator, are not weak in terms of their strength.
Even the weakest Chen Runyu, at this moment, is exceptionally fierce, as if she has taken drugs.
If things really go south, there's still Wenren Li.
Until now, Wenren Li hasn't made a move.
Some tactical arrangements don't require communication between them; they just need to observe each other's actions to understand each other's intentions.
This is truly a kindred spirit. So far, Zhang Chi hasn't seen anyone who can have such a high level of understanding with him like Wenren Li.
Wenren Li is Zhang Chi's last trump card.
Zhang Chi has attracted firepower, and the enemy definitely doesn't expect that there is an even more terrifying person lurking.
Wenren Li won't make a move unless Zhang Chi is in dire straits.
Under Caiyu's lead, Zhang Chi once again rushed towards another direction.
And this time, the enemy's distribution is no longer scattered.
Previously, they were scattered, allowing Zhang Chi to display agile footwork and elegant swordsmanship, killing one person with each step, focusing on speed.
But now, the enemy has formed a formation, and it won't be so easy for Zhang Chi to make them turn around effortlessly.
Charging into the group of demons may result in being surrounded.
Looking at the demons blocking a narrow alley, Bai Su is also somewhat at a loss.
How can they charge through this road?
Both sides are walls, and crashing into them is not impossible, but these demons will definitely attack them.
"Protect Xiaoyu, leave the rest to me."
Zhang Chi didn't hesitate and jumped up directly.
"Senior Brother!"
"Crazy Wind, Three Stacked Waves!"
Outside, the people from Sword Sect were shocked when they saw this move. It was one of the Sword Sect's ultimate techniques, and they certainly recognized it.
However, it is too dangerous for Zhang Chi to use this move without True Qi.
A sword storm driven by True Qi is the only result of rushing in. It will be devoured by the demons.
However, at this moment, a sandstorm appeared around Zhang Chi.
"This is... an earth-based spell!"
Sand is inseparable from wind, and earth is inseparable from wood.
Wind is a variation of wood-based spells. Wood Yin is wind, and Wood Yang is thunder.
Zhang Chi doesn't have any fragments of wood-based spells in his hands. He is using the wind generated by his sword to lift up the sand, perfectly integrating spells and swordsmanship together.
When the Great River Sword Technique is displayed, it is just an ordinary river. But when Zhang Chi uses this move, it becomes a flowing sand river.
The raging sand is like waves, sweeping away the demons...
