People are in the heavens, starting as Li Xingyun

Chapter 387: Hanba, General

Zombies are born from the resentment and foul air of heaven and earth.

He is immortal, and has been cast out of the six paths of sentient beings by the three realms of heaven, earth, and man. He wanders without support, and is displaced. In the human world, he uses resentment as strength, blood as food, and uses the blood of sentient beings to vent his endless loneliness...

Well, the above descriptions are pure nonsense and have nothing to do with real zombies.

At least the zombies in front of us are just biological weapons made from corpses that have just died, combined with witchcraft and magic energy. They are somewhat similar to the "Weapon God Altar" in The Bad Guys, but more powerful and weird.

At this moment, the masked man... that is, Li Hanyi, looked at the slowly advancing zombie army in the distance, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.

These zombies are nothing more than vanguard troops, used to deplete their own manpower.

Most of them are not very strong, have low intelligence, stiff limbs, and are afraid of sunlight, so they only act at night or on rainy days. Even their average strength is mostly below the sixth rank. Even though they are huge in number, theoretically they cannot defeat the regular army of the Dayu court.

However, although these zombies are not strong, they are surprisingly difficult to kill. Unless they are crushed to ashes or shot in the head, even if only half of their body is left, they can still launch crazy attacks on the target.

Once you are bitten or scratched by these zombies, that is the beginning of the nightmare!
That’s right, just as you thought, these zombies are extremely contagious, similar to the ability in Resident Evil where one bite will turn you into a zombie.

At the beginning of this demon invasion war, Dayu's army suffered a great loss due to the lack of this intelligence. Countless soldiers and accompanying warriors were infected, and then became enemies, and turned around to attack their former companions.

This cycle repeated itself over and over again, and the situation that had been barely resisted suddenly collapsed, so that finally those weirdos in the academy developed an antidote that could resist the zombie poison, and only then was the situation barely stabilized.

Of course, this antidote is not a panacea. If you don’t have time to take the antidote within a quarter of an hour after being bitten, or if you have multiple injuries and have ingested too much zombie poison, the revival technique will also be useless.

Thinking of this, the warriors who were gathering outside the city gate also turned pale, as if they were thinking about what they would look like after being infected and turned into zombies.

However, even so, none of these warriors planned to flee or show a negative and timid look, because they knew that they had no way to retreat. Behind them were the lights of thousands of homes in Chang'an City, where their relatives and friends were also. If even they gave up resistance, what awaited everyone would be a catastrophic disaster.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry! Don't waste your time! Get moving!"

On the other side, the defenders on the city wall were busy preparing various city defense equipment, but no one prepared weapons such as bows and crossbows.

Because they know that arrows do not pose much threat to zombies. Unless an arrow can penetrate the zombie's head, it will not cause effective damage if it hits other parts of the body. What's more, zombies are known for their iron bones. If the distance is too far, there will be the embarrassing situation that the arrow cannot penetrate the skin.

Soon, huge pots were set up on the city walls, and the defenders desperately added firewood to the bottom of the pots to make the water boil.

This is not just boiling water, but talisman water that has been blessed by the Taoists from Longhu Mountain and Qingcheng Mountain. That is, it has various pure yang medicines and talismans added to it. It can target evil spirits and also have a suppressive effect on the poisonous insects in the bodies of zombies.

A commander in armor stood at the highest point of the city wall, estimating the distance while issuing orders to steady the morale of the troops. He kept reciting numbers, and with his still strong internal strength, the numbers were transmitted to the ears of every soldier on the top of the city.

"One hundred feet... seventy feet... fifty feet, hold on! Don't worry... forty-five feet, thirty feet... now is the time!"

"Throw----!!!"

Upon hearing the order, hundreds of soldiers immediately operated the catapults and threw the pottery jars that had been placed long ago with great force. They flew over a distance of hundreds of meters and fell directly into the zombie army, splashing out extremely pure Pure Yang Talisman Water.

All of a sudden, shrill screams came one after another, and the zombies' bodies were seen bursting into flames out of nowhere, and then they ran around like headless flies, making the scene even more chaotic.

Soon, the area a hundred meters away from the city wall turned into a sea of ​​fire. Many zombies rushed inward despite the fire. They seemed fearless of the flames, but fell down one after another after advancing a certain distance, emitting the stench of burnt bacon.

But unfortunately, this situation did not last too long. After all, the two sides had been fighting for more than several months, and it took time for the Taoists to make talismans and refine elixirs. The inventory was almost empty and could not be consumed indiscriminately.

This lasted for half an hour, and the remaining 20,000 zombies stepped on the charred corpses of their companions and rushed towards the Chang'an City ahead.

At this time, the warriors guarding outside the city gate finally began to take action.

I saw them skillfully forming sword formations, seven people in each group, and then the big formation inside the small formation, plus the master of transformation in the center who served as the core of the formation, a total of 365 people, moving slowly in a chaotic and disorderly manner but with a certain rhythm, releasing sharp sword energy, like the falling stars in the sky, quickly strangling the zombie army in front like a millstone.

This is the Zhoutian Star Sword Formation, which was created by the Master. It requires the cooperation of at least three hundred warriors above the sixth rank, sixty-four fourth rank warriors, and one God Transformation Grandmaster to unleash its basic power.

According to the Master, the higher the cultivation level of the person who presides over the core of the formation, the more powerful the formation will be.

And with this scale today, once it is fully deployed, it would be equivalent to a joint attack by three or four grand masters. If one does not know the escape route of the formation, even a natural swordsman like Tianjian Wuming would have to go through some trouble to break it by force.

buzzing-

In an instant! The sharp sound of swords suddenly rang out.

Blood splattered and flesh was scattered all over the ground. The entire sky of Chang'an City seemed to be filled with sword light and blood, and was filled with a doomsday-like murderous atmosphere.

Half an hour later, Chang'an City still held its defense line tightly. The warriors outside the city gate did not let the zombie army successfully break through. Even if some of them occasionally bypassed the range of the sword formation and climbed up the city wall, they were beaten away by the well-rested defenders. It can be said that they escaped without any danger.

Zombies have better physical fitness than ordinary people, no sense of pain, and no fear. Although they have many advantages, they are at an absolute disadvantage in siege warfare. This proves that before individual strength achieves a qualitative change, it is far less effective than discipline, machinery, and tactics.

However, no one, whether the warriors outside the city or the defenders on the city, showed a relaxed or happy expression.

Because they knew very well that this group of low-level zombies were just appetizers, and the real problem was yet to come.

Because of this, those more powerful masters and Taoists from Longhu Mountain did not take action. They had to save their energy and skills to prepare for dealing with the next powerful enemy.

Not long after, figures descended from the dark clouds formed by demonic energy in the sky. The aura of each figure was extremely powerful, at least at the level of a great master of the Spirit Transformation Realm. At a rough glance, there were more than fifty of them, and they were flying towards the top of the city at an extremely fast speed.

Seeing this, the general in charge of defending the city changed his expression drastically. Before he could shout, outside the city of Chang'an, those many great masters of the Divine Transformation Realm who had not joined the formation had already taken the initiative to attack. Each of them displayed their wonderful body skills and transformed into streams of light to block the way of those strange figures.

"One finger at a time!"

"Flying Fairy from Heaven!"

"Thunder Finger!" "Moonlit Night and Dawn!"

"Infinite Sword Formation!"

"Kanglong has regrets!"

"Tear the sky and clear the clouds!"

"Changing flowers and picking up jade!"

……

Familiar moves suddenly appeared from the sky, all of which were the unique skills of the best young generation in the world.

If Shen Sui Xin was still here at this moment, he would be surprised to find that the young warriors he had met in the past had actually broken through their original realms and become master warriors at the level of Divine Transformation.

The reason for this is that, in addition to the continuous life and death tests over the past year or so, which have rapidly improved their martial arts realm and will, it is also because the Nuwa barrier covering the Kyushu continent has been destroyed, making the laws of the world easier to understand and comprehend, and it is relatively easier for warriors to break through.

Especially at the Grand Master level, because of the strong accumulation over the years, once they get out of trouble, they will take off directly on the spot.

People like Tian Jian Wuming and Sword God Li Chungang, who are considered to be the top strong men in the sects, have broken the shackles of refining the spirit and returning to the void, and have stepped into the realm of heaven and man in martial arts one after another.

But because they are too strong, the strong ones in the demon army are more targeted at them, so people are not in Chang'an City these days, but follow the Master and Taizu early to deal with the most powerful demons.

Rumble————! ! !
Not far from the city wall, on an altar of the Eight Trigrams that had been set up long ago, the head of Qingcheng Mountain, Lü Suzhen, was holding the Pure Yang Sword, stepping on the Gangbu Dou, and making hand gestures. The gems placed at the eight corners of the trigrams suddenly resonated.

"The universe is endless, Feng Lei is ordered!"

Lu Suzhen raised his sword to the sky. He had just broken through to the level of a grandmaster, and with the help of the altar, he broke through his limit again. A violent beam of lightning spurted out from the tip of the sword and shot towards the dark clouds in the sky.

This ray of lightning, carrying a terrifying pure yang force, collided with the eerie demonic energy in the dark clouds, immediately causing an extremely violent reaction.

After a burst of lightning and thunder, the dark clouds gradually became thinner, revealing three figures. When Lu Suzhen saw the appearance of the person in the middle clearly, his expression immediately became solemn.

"As expected, the Zombie King Hanba has finally arrived."

Turning my sight to the opposite side, the figure in the middle was extremely tall, a young woman with long red hair and a charming figure.

Her skin was as smooth as warm jade, with a soft glow, her lips were red without any lipstick, and she looked delicate and beautiful. Two strands of red hair on her cheeks fluttered softly in the wind, adding a touch of alluring charm.

The pearl earrings on her ears swayed, and the emerald bracelet on her wrist was so green and vivid that she looked more alive than a living person.

But Lu Suzhen knew that she was not, because in the past year, they had fought with the other party more than once. After many investigations, they found out that the other party was not a human being, but a real zombie.

However, unlike those inferior zombies created by poisonous insects and evil spirits, the other party is a corpse demon that is born and raised naturally, and has reached the state of returning to nature, so that it appears to be "resurrected from the dead". The yin and yang on the body are harmonious, exuding fragrance, without any gloomy breath. This is one of the highest forms of zombies, "Ba".

Beside her there were two figures, a man and a woman, who were also zombies with almost human appearance, but they still exuded a faint evil aura and had not yet achieved "yin to yang".

The strength of these three corpse demons is extremely terrifying, and they are all at the grandmaster level.

Especially the woman in the middle who calls herself "Zombie King Hanba", once broke the indestructible body of the undefeated boy Gu Santong with just three moves, and then defeated Fang Juxia and Martial Saint Guan Qi successively. This shows that her strength is so powerful that she is not something that an ordinary grandmaster can contend with.

Shhhhhhh———

Several figures flew onto the city wall, all of them were familiar figures.

The holy monk Nagarjuna of Liangchan Temple, the martial saint Guan Qi, the iron-hearted god Zhu Wusi, and the national master of Dayu Qi Tianchen.

With the addition of Lu Suzhen, a total of five grand masters showed up, their auras entwined and merged with each other, spreading out as an invisible force, like a sharp sword unsheathed, pointing directly at the three-headed corpse demon in the distance.

"Oh...you're not dead yet?"

Hanba lowered his head to look down at the scene below, quickly passed by the masters who were in the battle, then looked at the five great masters on the top of the city, and finally stopped at the Martial Saint Guan Qi, his rosy lips slightly raised, revealing an interested smile.

"Hahahaha - you're not qualified enough to kill me, you little bitch."

His hair was half black and half white, but his face was like that of a young Guan Qi. He smiled evilly, then stomped his feet hard and turned into a shadow and flew into the sky.

Without seeing how he moved, a powerful energy surged in the air, filling the sky and earth like a vast ocean, and pressed down fiercely towards the three-headed corpse demon.

"Humph!"

Hanba did not move at all when she saw this. Instead, the female corpse demon standing on her left sneered, turned to ask for orders from Hanba, and after getting tacit approval, she immediately swooped down towards Guan Qi, attacking with one claw on the way. The thick corpse gas condensed into a black dragon, crashing into the invisible ocean.

Great sound and sound, no wind and no waves.

The dragon entered the sea, tumbling wildly. Visible spatial ripples spread in all directions, rolling up huge waves without end.

Faintly, one could only see two figures intertwining with each other, neither giving in to the other, and it looked like they were going to fight for a whole day and night.

When Lu Suzhen and others saw this scene, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Of the three corpse demons, one has been killed, so they still have four. Even though Hanba is very powerful, far beyond the average Grandmaster, in a situation of four against two, they still have the upper hand.

Seeing this, Hanba shook his head slightly, and then said: "General, you should also make a move."
