Chapter 227 Cross-Border Transmission
Just as they were about to pass through this area, a group of ghost soldiers suddenly appeared from the corner of the street not far away. Their steps were uniform, as if they were on patrol.
"Quick, lie down!" Yaoguang whispered, and everyone quickly and nimbly lay on the roof.
The ghost soldiers passed by not far from them, and everyone held their breath until the footsteps of the ghost soldiers gradually faded away.
"It was a close call, we were almost discovered." Shen Chengxian breathed a sigh of relief.
"We have to speed up, God knows how many ghost soldiers there are here." Jiang Qing urged, and the group continued to move forward.
They carefully avoided the patrol route of the ghost soldiers, passed through the gloomy forest, crossed the deep stream, and finally came to an open area.
"Look, the northern suburbs are ahead." Yaoguang pointed to the front, with a hint of relief in her tone.
Everyone looked ahead and saw that the scene in front was completely different from the gloom behind them. Although it was still dim, it had a little more vitality.
"Finally, I can breathe a sigh of relief." Qin Xiaosui said with a smile.
"Don't relax too early, we are not out of danger yet." Jiang Qing reminded, but there was also a hint of relief in his tone.
Finally, they came to the suburbs in the north of Fengdu, which was more desolate and cold than the city.
The sky was covered with dark clouds, and lightning occasionally flashed, illuminating this dead land. Yaoguang pointed to a hidden valley in front and said:
"The teleportation array is there, but now... it seems to have become the territory of a ghost king."
When Jiang Qing saw her say this, there was a ball of blue flame burning in her eyes.
What skill is this?
"Ghost King?" Shen Chengxian frowned, "That's not an easy character to deal with."
"We have no way out, we can only fight." Jiang Qing clenched his weapons, with a firm light in his eyes.
Several people slowly approached the valley, and suddenly, a strong yin energy rushed over, and then a huge figure slowly rose from the valley, with a green light flashing in its eyes, terrifying and powerful-it was the ghost king.
"Intruders, how dare you break into my territory!" The voice of the Ghost King was like thunder, which made everyone's eardrums hurt.
"We have no intention of offending, but we just need to use the teleportation array in the valley." Jiang Qing responded in a deep voice.
"Heh, what does it have to do with me? I'm just hungry. Whether you have any intention of offending or not, come into my private room and talk. I will discuss it with you. Haha!" The Ghost King roared and attacked them directly.
The battle was about to break out.
Jiang Qing and Shen Chengxian rushed up first and started a fierce battle with the Ghost King.
Luo Hua and Baili Ye surrounded the Ghost King from both sides, trying to find the Ghost King's weakness, while Qin Xiaosui cast a magic circle in the back to provide support for his teammates.
However, the power of the Ghost King was beyond imagination. Every attack of it was overwhelming, which made everyone feel great pressure.
At this moment, Yaoguang stood up, and her eyes revealed a cold will.
"You step back, let me do it." Yaoguang's voice was calm and firm.
"You?"
Shen Chengxian seemed to have forgotten the identity of the other party's undead, and was about to stop her, but a hand blocked Shen Chengxian.
"Let her try." Jiang Qing said.
It just so happened that everyone wanted to see how powerful the legendary undead were.
Everyone stepped back after hearing this, leaving the battlefield for Yaoguang. Yaoguang slowly walked towards the ghost king. Although her steps were light, she carried an unstoppable momentum.
"Where did you come from, girl? You don't have any living spirit on you. I'm willing to eat you. Get out of here." The ghost king looked at Yaoguang, and a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes.
For him, this was the food being stale, well, and more like a smelly stone without taste.
Yaoguang quietly raised the star longbow in her hand and slowly pulled it open. The star phantom on the longbow was shining brightly, and a light arrow formed by the gathering of starlight gradually formed. Her eyes were firm, without a trace of wavering.
"Go!" Yaoguang gently released the bowstring, and the light arrow streaked through the night sky like a meteor, shooting towards the ghost king at an astonishing speed.
The ghost king roared, and layers of black mist suddenly surged on its huge body, trying to resist the light arrow. However, the light arrow easily penetrated the black mist and its defense, and hit the ghost king's chest.
Jiang Qing's face was stern. The composition of this arrow was very complex, containing multiple rules of power.
The ghost king's body began to tremble, and fear appeared in his eyes, "How is this possible!?"
"Impossible, I am immortal!" The ghost king roared, and his voice echoed throughout the valley.
But the power of the light arrow did not end there. It burst out a dazzling light in the ghost king's body, turning the ghost king's roar into a painful howl.
However, the battle did not end so easily.
At the moment the ghost king exploded, a strong resentment surged from its wreckage, and a new ghost king was immediately formed and rushed straight towards Yaoguang.
"I am invincible in the underworld. As long as I have enough Yin energy, it will be useless even if you kill me a thousand times!
Hahahahaha!"
Although Yaoguang reacted quickly, she was still hit by the shock wave of resentment. Her figure flew out like a kite with a broken string and fell heavily to the ground.
"Yaoguang!" Jiang Qing and others exclaimed. They rushed forward and saw Yaoguang lying on the ground with her eyes closed, seemingly unconscious.
"Princess Yaoguang!" Jiang Qing called softly, his heart full of worry.
Just when everyone was anxious, Yao Guang's body suddenly emitted a faint light, and she slowly opened her eyes. The flow of time seemed to be contained in those eyes.
"I'm fine." Although Yao Guang's voice was weak, he was full of energy and showed no signs of weakness.
She slowly stood up and faced the Ghost King, who was showing his teeth and claws, with a ghost lingering around him. The aura erupting from his body was even raging in the air.
Yaoguang raised the star longbow again, and her body began to emit more intense light, as if it resonated with the star shadow on the longbow.
At this time, everyone was surprised to find that the air around Yao Guang seemed to solidify, and time seemed to have stopped flowing at this moment. When the ghost king's resentment shock wave approached Yao Guang, it stopped advancing and then slowly dissipated.
"Time stops!"
She drew her longbow again, and the light arrows formed by the stars were even brighter than before.
"This time, let's end it." Yao Guang's voice was calm and firm.
The arrow of light left the string, cut through the sky, and directly penetrated the ghost king's eyebrows. The ghost king's body fell down and dissipated again.
But its consciousness still exists and has not been erased. It wants to gather Yin Qi and reshape its body.
"how so!"
It roared wildly.
Its body actually couldn't come back, as if it was frozen forever at the moment when its body dissipated.
There is a mysterious force that stops it. The problem is that it cannot erase this force at all, and the feeling will not change in the past tens of millions of years.
This power - eternity.
"No!!"
To be precise, ghosts are a kind of energy aggregate. At this moment, the ghost king discovered that he had no power but could not gather them together.
The scattered energy will only gradually dissipate and slowly return to heaven and earth.
Another half minute passed.
The shrill roar that lingered in everyone's ears was completely annihilated.
it's over.
The time-stopping characteristic of Yaoguang gradually disappeared, she put away her long bow and returned to her teammates.
"Yao Guang, are you okay?" Jiang Qing stepped forward and asked subconsciously.
Yao Guang didn't dare to look at him, so she secretly glanced at Qin Xiaosui, then shook her head and said, "I'm fine, I'm just... a little tired."
"Let's take a rest. Let's find the magic circle where the return to the world is." Although Yaoguang didn't show anything on the surface, is there no price for the eternal use of power?
Conservation of all things in the world is an eternal law.
"Hey." Qin Xiaosui curled his lips.
She seemed to understand a little bit. This woman wanted to steal her most beloved thing...
After this battle, everyone has a deeper understanding of Yaoguang's power. The eternal power is indelible and terrifying.
"The teleportation array should be farther north. I'm not tired. Let me lead the way..." Under her guidance, they finally arrived at the location of the teleportation array in the valley.
However, when they were about to activate the teleportation array, they found that the teleportation array had been damaged and could not be used.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Yao Guang, waiting for her explanation. Yao Guang took a deep breath, and then continued slowly:
“The other power is the Breath of Life.
The breath of life is completely different from the eternal power. It originates from the vitality of all things in the world and is a warm and vital force.
Using the breath of life for cross-border transmission can appease the rules of heaven and earth, allowing the channel to exist stably without being rejected and obliterated by the power of heaven and earth. "
Shen Chengxian frowned and asked: "Since the breath of life can stabilize the transmission channel, how do we get this power?"
Yao Guang's expression seemed a little embarrassed, and she hesitated and said: "Although the breath of life is powerful, it is very difficult to obtain and use. It needs to draw the purest life essence from countless living beings.
And the breath of life must gather into me and merge with the eternal power.
In this way, the passage between the two worlds can be opened.
In fact, this was also designed by my father. He wanted me to get the breath of life. "
"Does that mean you want to kill people?"
"Um...no, not exactly..."
Yao Guang lowered his head, his cheeks red.
In addition to killing people, there is another way, that is, male essence, which can be counted in hundreds of millions.
They are all pure essence of life.
She seemed to understand what her father meant, the coffin opener...but, he didn't belong to her.
Yao Guang, who lowered his head, looked at Qin Xiaosui who was sulking, but in the end he still did not say these words.
After everyone heard this, they fell into deep thought, breath of life? What is this? Why haven’t I heard of it before?
Jiang Qing broke the silence: "Then what should we do now? The teleportation array has been destroyed. We have no eternal power and cannot use the breath of life. Are we going to be trapped here?"
Yao Guang smiled slightly, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes: "Although the teleportation array has been destroyed, if the teleportation array is strengthened, it should be enough to penetrate the boundary wall.
It just might not be safe.
I don't know how long the channel can last without collapsing. If the channel collapses during teleportation and is struck by the rules of heaven and earth, the realm will fall at worst, and the path to life and death will disappear at worst. "
Jiang Qing clenched his fists:
"That's it!"
Yao Guang opened his mouth, and finally uttered only one word: "Yeah."
"We need materials unique to the underworld and a powerful energy source." Yaoguang pointed to some vague runes on the formation and said, "These runes represent the flow of energy in the underworld. If we can activate them, we may be able to activate the teleportation array. ”
Shen Chengxian and Luo Hua began to look around for potentially useful materials, while Jiang Qing and Bailiye thought about how to collect the required energy.
Qin Xiaosui and Yaoguang studied the structure of the array together, trying to understand how to activate the runes.
After a period of hard work, they finally found some precious underworld materials and managed to collect enough energy. Under Yaoguang's guidance, they began to repair the teleportation array.
When the last piece of material was embedded in the teleportation array and the last energy was injected into the core of the array, the entire teleportation array began to emit a dazzling light. The runes lit up one by one, forming a complex light network that surrounded everyone.
In the light, everyone felt a powerful force pulling them, and the space around them began to distort and deform.
They knew that the teleportation array was starting and they were about to leave the underworld and return to the world of the living.
Everyone felt a flash before their eyes, and their bodies disappeared. When they opened their eyes again, they found themselves in a colorful channel, and were moving forward at an extremely fast speed.
This teleportation channel was completely different from the instant teleportation that Jiang Qing had experienced before. The space inside here was full of wonderful scenes.
In the channel, various laws interweave into a gorgeous scene, like a dream.
However, these laws are blocked by a barrier composed of eternal power, protecting everyone from harm, making people sigh at the wonder of heaven and earth and the wonder of the universe.
The tranquility did not last long.
Suddenly, the transmission channel began to show signs of instability. In just a blink of an eye, the channel was full of cracks, and these cracks were expanding rapidly.
The power of the rules of heaven and earth also squeezed in from these cracks. Seeing this, everyone hurriedly dodged around.
"Everyone be careful!" Jiang Qing shouted loudly, "The power squeezed into these cracks is used by heaven and earth to erase the 'eternity', don't get involved!"
At this critical moment, Yaoguang quickly cast a spell to try to stabilize the transmission channel.
Her hands waved quickly in the air, and a stream of starlight flew out from her fingertips and merged into the cracks of the channel, trying to delay the collapse of the channel.
Shen Chengxian and Luo Hua guarded on both sides of the team, alert to possible accidents.
Qin Xiaosui held Yaoguang's hand tightly, with a worried look on his face.
Ah? Did he hold it wrong?
Never mind!
"I suddenly thought of a question," Bailiye said suddenly, with a hint of uneasiness in his voice, "Will our passage back to the world of the living directly teleport us outside the Wuji Fairy Island?"
"I think this is still good," Luoshui responded, her voice also revealing tension, "If the passage is broken, who knows where we will be teleported to..."
