Wuji Yaozun

Chapter 71 The Plague
Following Duan Chen's loud warning, large swaths of frost flowers appeared on the battlefield.

The indescribable low temperature shrouded the defenders of Lieyang City, and the biting chill approached everyone's body.

Duan Chen instantly felt a deadly chill, that feeling, like the cold and pale cheeks of thousands of dead people, instantly sticking to every inch of the god's body, the death intent of the dead greedily absorbing the temperature of all life.

This kind of chill from heart to body, like falling into the embrace of death, caused the defenders to suffer a lot at this moment. Among the few who rushed the fastest, those with lower cultivation levels were directly turned into ice sculptures, forever standing in place.

Fortunately, now Duan Chen is no longer a soft-spoken person in Lieyang City. His yelling to be careful still made most people subconsciously mobilize their spiritual power and barely survived this round of frost baptism.

The sound of cracking crackling ice layers kept ringing out. Duan Chen, who had already had experience and knew that spiritual fire was extremely restraining to these ice layers, as early as when Shangguan Ming swung his sword, the spiritual power of the whole body was flowing at full speed. stand up.

Duan Chen, who escaped from the frost, saw that Gongsun Lieyan was also frozen beside him, and was about to step forward to rescue him, when the little fire bird flew down and spewed out a small flame, instantly dispelling the girl's chill .

Duan Chen's eyes lit up when he saw that the little fire bird had expelled the chill so easily, and quickly said: "Senior Gongsun, hurry up and ask the little fire bird to save those who are still frozen. The key to this battle is very important." It might be on the little firebird."

"You are the fire bird, you are full of fire birds." The little fire bird flew up with disdain.

Gongsun Lieyan quickly comforted him, seeing the little fire bird reluctantly flying out to save people, Duan Chen was also relieved.

At this time, Duan Zhengyu had officially handed over Shangguan Ming, but there was already a gap in strength. Shangguan Ming's gestures were filled with endless frost. After dispelling the chill, it felt like it was getting thicker and thicker. Gradually, the whole person became more and more stiff, and looked more and more precarious.

Fortunately, at this time, the fat and thin elder was relieved. At this time, he didn't pay attention to heroism, and when he was going to be singled out, he would besiege him from left to right without making a sound.

With the addition of these two new forces, Duan Zhengyu was finally able to take a breath, mobilized his spiritual power after a short pause, and struggled to dispel the layers of chill from his body. Seeing that the fat and thin elder was also struggling under the rune sword, he dared not neglect and quickly followed.

At this time, under the powerful and miraculous flames of the little firebird, the defenders of Lieyang City finally broke free from the impact of the unforgettable cold wind. These people were originally the elite of Lieyang City, although they feel Tired, but quickly stabilized the situation.

As for Shangguanming's big move, it was not without cost. Although he gained the upper hand by relying on the extremely powerful frost spiritual power, he was still tightly entangled by Duan Zhengyu and the fat and thin elder.

On the other side, Duan Chen looked at the battle between the four, but he was worried. If Shangguan Ming was really related to the knight who appeared in the North Ridge in his previous life, then this battle might not be able to go on, at least not now. Hit it down.

Although the little fire bird faintly restrained the cold spiritual power of the commander of Shangguan, but the little fire bird was too young to confront Shangguan Ming head-on, and the most important thing was that Duan Chen had already begun to faintly feel that his chest was starting to itch. At this critical moment, I couldn't help coughing.

This cough was like a signal. In the camp of Lieyang City defenders, there was a continuous sound of coughing. One can imagine what kind of consequences would be caused by a sudden uncontrollable cough on this fierce battlefield.

Duan Chen's pupils shrank, and he had already confirmed that there was definitely a relationship between Shangguanming and the ghost knight he met in the North Ridge in his previous life.

Back then, the Ghost Knight of Wu Zun realm was wearing a large black robe, his whole body was completely covered, his face could not be seen clearly from the beginning to the end, and he was riding a huge demon horse. It is so frozen that one glance is like falling into an ice cellar.

But the deepest impression of this ghost knight is not his powerful frost spiritual power. At that time, Duan Chen and a group of companions met him by chance during the expedition, and the two sides had a conflict. It is not relying on the endless power of frost, people are bound and unable to let go, defeat is only a matter of time.

But what happened next made everyone terrified when they came back. Everyone was infected with the extremely vicious plague to varying degrees. They all coughed continuously, and disgusting black spots appeared on their bodies, and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.

If it wasn't for Duan Chen who happened to have two bottles of antidote pills on him at that time, none of them would be able to escape. If so, after escaping back, Duan Chen, who had just climbed to the sixth-grade alchemist at that time, would not be able to escape this plague disease. It was helpless.

Fortunately, Duan Chen already had the colorful fire at that time, and he tried his best to suppress the deterioration of the plague with the best elixir first, then stayed in the alchemy room overnight, and finally prepared a secret medicine of Yangling elixir by himself, so that he could die A few of my friends were pulled back from the death line.

So thinking of the horror of that ghost knight back then, even though Shangguan Ming was far from being able to compare with him, Duan Chen still felt chills down his back.

It can't be delayed any longer.

Duan Chen stepped forward and shouted to Duan Zhengyu: "Elder Taishang, we can't drag on any longer. This Shangguanming will spread a very vicious plague. It won't be long before our people won't have much fighting power. We must contact the people from Lieyang Academy as soon as possible, and hide in the city together."

Shangguan Ming suddenly looked over, and said in a hoarse voice: "I didn't expect you to be able to see the endless plagues and diseases in my spiritual power, but so what, you have been fighting with me for so long, The plague has already penetrated into your hearts, even if you can escape back to the city, you still cannot escape the coming of death, hahahaha."

Following Shangguan Ming's wild laughter, Duan Zhengyu mobilized his spiritual power, and finally discovered something wrong with his body. Fortunately, he has deep spiritual power, so he can suppress it for a while.

But Duan Zhengyu couldn't help but his face changed slightly, even he knew unconsciously, if the plague broke out on a large scale, how could others resist it.

"Two elders, Elder Liu, the three of you quickly lead people to bring the people of Old Ghost Gongsun into the city. I will drag you here first."

The fat and thin elders looked at each other, knowing that they couldn't afford it, and headed towards Lieyang College together with Liu Qingwen.

"You drag it, can you hold it?"

Shangguan Ming sneered disdainfully, and the sharp blade whizzed down with a faint frost mist. Duan Zhengyu quickly blocked it with the big knife in his hand, but in an instant, the steel knife and his hands were covered with a thin layer of light blue ice. layer, and it is still rapidly condensing, which has a great tendency to freeze its whole body.

It's "Frost Strike" again.Duan Chen, who had suffered from this trick just now, saw it at a glance.

Fortunately, at this time, Gongsun Lieyan also knew that the situation was critical, so the little fire bird flew over, first spit out a flame to help Duan Zhengyu get out of trouble, and then surrounded Shangguan Ming, looking for opportunities.

"What the hell is this, how could it break my frost power."

Shangguan Ming looked at this ordinary-looking but very agile little fire bird, and was slightly taken aback, as if he was a little afraid of the fire of the little fire bird.

Duan Chen was overjoyed when he saw this, and with the help of Little Firebird, even if Duan Zhengyu was defeated, he would still have no problem holding Shangguan Ming back. The problem now is to escape back to the city before the plague breaks out on a large scale.

Seeing that there are more and more people coughing on the battlefield, even ordinary soldiers have bent over and squatted on the ground unbearably, coughing so hard that their mouths are full of blood foam, but the expected target of the defenders of Lieyang City is indeed in time. will reach.

Originally, they had to defend against the Black Armored Army. They would pretend to be Chen Bing at the south gate, but attacked other gates. After all, outside the South Gate was the headquarters of the Black Armored Army. It was the place where they had been operating for a long time. The core of guarding Yangcheng is at the south gate.

Now it seems that the strength of the Black Armor Army is already here. Presumably, Shangguan Ming is full of confidence, even though the south gate is the most majestic and solid side of Lieyang City, he has gathered all the strength.

So Duan Yanfeng saw that the situation was not right, and sent another pair of reinforcements. With this group of fresh troops joining, although the Black Armored Army is powerful, after all, under Lieyang City, more than half of Lieyang City's troops and people from Lieyang Academy have been assembled , Gradually unable to stop the reconciliation of the two, people from Lieyang Academy also came under the city wall.

The four major martial spirits have all returned, and together with Duan Zhengyu, there are five strong martial spirits standing in front of the city gate. Even though Shangguan Ming is conceited about his high spiritual power and has a deputy commander of the martial spirit level to help him, he dare not forcefully chase them in. , watching Lieyang City open the gates coldly, and the defenders retreated into the city one by one.

The deputy commander of the Black Armored Army came to Shangguanming, and respectfully said: "Commander, don't we take advantage of the opportunity of the city gate being wide open, and try rushing in?"

"Why bother?"

Under the black helmet, a sneer appeared on the corner of Shangguan Ming's mouth, and said: "With those old things around, it will be difficult for us to break through for a while. If we had to attack anyway before, I will try again. Now Huh, let them enjoy it slowly, the whole city will suffer from the plague. At that time, I will let them open the city gate by themselves, kneel down and beg me to enter the city to rescue them."

The deputy commander looked at the defenders of Lieyang City who kept coughing and vomiting blood, and keenly realized that it was the thin elder who was standing at the end of the formation. The majestic martial soul expert couldn't help coughing, and there was also an endless chill in his heart, and his expression became more and more serious. Respectfully said: "Congratulations to the commander-in-chief for mastering the supreme secret technique, Lieyang City is about to be broken. At that time, the commander-in-chief will be the lord of Lieyang City."

"Haha, pass on the order, we will set up camp on the spot, and wait for Lieyang City to become chaotic by itself."

Shangguan Ming lowered his head and disappeared into the darkness, and the Heijia Army began to get busy following his orders.
