The ghost commander squatted on a dead tree, playing with the talisman originally given to him with great interest. Around him, humans and the undead army were fighting inextricably, and he turned a blind eye to them all as if they were nothing.
At this moment, he paused and turned his head to look in a certain direction. A wave suddenly appeared in the empty place, and then he saw two figures emerging from the wave. They were the same ones who had just been in another direction. Yuan Chu and Wei He returned from a space to rest.
Wei He raised his head, met the Ghost Commander's eyes, and immediately became alert. Then he caught a glimpse of a huge number of undead souls and a fierce battle, and a look of shock appeared on his face. Where did so many undead come from? Did he and Yuan Chu stay in another space for a long time? ?
Yuanchu also glanced over there and immediately understood everyone's situation.
"Let's go!" Wei He was about to go over and help, but suddenly stopped and looked at Yuan Chu with a heavy look. He now shares life with Yuan Chu, and if he is injured or dies, it will inevitably affect her, but he is allowed to run away with her and abandon others, but he is determined not to do it.
Yuanchu saw his struggle and said, "Do you think our joining can change the situation?"
Wei He: "...can't."
"Then, what if we add him?" Yuan Chu's eyes moved to the ghost commander hanging on the dead tree.
"Him?" Wei He was stunned, how could a handsome ghost join them
"Don't you think he's quite friendly to humans?"
Wei He: I don’t think so at all! This guy just missed throwing him into the volcanic rocks.
"He is good at space magic."
so what? Can it still be used by them
There was no explanation at first, but he was just reassured to fight.
"Don't worry about me. Just like you, I will not abandon my commander and companions."
Her words stabilized Wei He's mind and he no longer hesitated.
He didn't know what her original plan was, but he believed her and without any further questions, he took out the Xuanxiao Umbrella and rushed into the battle ring without hesitation.
Off the field—
[Look, is that person Wei He?]
[He is back? !]
[Shit, I almost forgot about him.]
[How did he come back? Where is the girl with him?]
[Looking at his miserable appearance, he came back just to kill someone.]
[No matter what, his willingness to stay and fight is worthy of admiration.]
"Wei He! Are you okay?" Ju Le asked in surprise and joy when he saw Wei He suddenly appeared.
"It's okay." Wei He's face was as dark as water, and he opened the Xuanxiao umbrella to block the undead attack for Jule, and then spun around, burning up everything.
Ju Le felt the intensity of the magic power and said in disbelief: "Have you reached the middle stage of foundation building?"
"Yeah." Wei He didn't say much and concentrated on fighting.
Ju Le never expected that Wei He, who had just been promoted to the early stage of foundation building, would break through to the late stage of foundation building.
However, the addition of Wei He did not have much impact on the massive undead. Most of the people around him were exhausted and their combat effectiveness had dropped significantly. They were now just struggling to hold on.
However, many amazing and talented people emerged in this battle, especially the dozen or so people brought here by Yuan Chu.
They performed well and made rapid progress. Their points rankings also skyrocketed, forming a countercurrent trend with other candidates.
"Yueyue, we might die here today." Feng Hao wiped the blood stains on his face and showed his white teeth to Yueli.
Yue Li's naturally smiling face was rarely serious at this moment, and she asked calmly: "Do you still remember what the teacher said, what is the key to passing the assessment?"
Feng Hao was stunned for a moment, and then uttered two words: "Persevere."
"Yes, hold on." Yue Li swung his long sword and unleashed a bolt of lightning, and the sharp white light illuminated his resolute face.
"Ooooooo, I don't want to die!" A girl with curly hair cried and waved her long whip, throwing away a dead spirit every time she cried.
"The worst thing you can do is stay with these undead souls and practice hard. In a few decades, you might be able to ascend." A strong boy wrapped the undead souls in mud, compressed it into a ball, and threw it out.
"Charge the duck, fight for honor!" A slightly fat boy felt the wind at his feet, shuttled between the undead, and turned the air into a blade.
Qiao Mingce silently picked up the pen, drew out the word "kill", and pushed it into the group of undead.
He keenly noticed that these students who were originally "accidentally" recruited into the team performed very well and never flinched in the face of life and death. Even the girl who cried was not timid when fighting.
Qiao Mingce has a very high IQ. Although he is physically exhausted, his thinking is still clear. When he first met Yuan Chu, he felt that this girl was special. It seems that she came to participate in this assessment not to improve her cultivation or compete for honors, but to find talents and help them grow.
He had a vague feeling that this battle was something Yuan Chu had anticipated. In order to allow them to break through themselves in the face of death threats, and this is also the case, his own cultivation level in the middle stage of foundation building was promoted to the late stage of foundation building. Prior to this, he had been stagnant in the middle stage of foundation building for more than a year.
If everything is according to her plan, then she must have a way to save their lives.
Qiao Mingce looked past the dead souls and towards the original location. He was probably the only one who noticed that Yuan Chu and Wei He came back from another space. They appeared next to the ghost handsome at that time and were not attacked. Although it was a bit incredible, maybe...
While he was thinking about it, the original figure was no longer there, and the handsome ghost was also gone.
In order to delay as much time as possible, Jule and others were divided into two groups and formed a circle. One group fought and the other rested. If someone retreated, the other person immediately stepped up.
Most of them faced ghost soldiers without intelligence, and the few ghost generals were handed over to a few teachers to deal with.
This temporary tactic allowed them to persist for three hours without any death.
Their bravery and cruelty made everyone outside the barrier admire and feel sad. The once glamorous campus sweethearts had all turned into bloody men. Falling down again and again and standing up again and again.
If someone calculated, they would find that in three consecutive hours, these twenty people killed a total of three to four thousand undead, and their rankings soared.
On the other hand, the scores of other candidates basically did not change much during this period, and many people gave up midway. The teachers who came to support sent the abstaining candidates out of the barrier one by one.
They originally thought that their performance was not bad, but when they saw the battle between Wei He and others, they were immediately shocked.
[Why are there so many undead? ?
]
[Are we participating in the same assessment? ? ?]
[Oh my god, if I had been there, I would have been dead long ago!]
The average person would encounter at most two to three hundred undead souls, but they encountered twenty to thirty thousand at one time! Just looking at it makes you despair!
"Ah, Lingcha Tower has sent someone over!" Someone shouted, and everyone looked in the same direction.
I saw two monks with outstanding temperament coming through the air, landing next to several teachers, saying a few words briefly, and then quickly entered the barrier through the portal.
"Great, they are saved."
"It looks like a master at first glance, does anyone know him?"
"The male monk is Qin Yancui, and the female monk is Shen Ruo. Both of them are Nascent Soul stage masters."
"Ah, Nascent Soul stage, I don't know if I can reach this level in my lifetime."
"Don't even think about it, you're not even qualified to take the final exam."
The arrival of the two monks boosted everyone's spirits, and they all believed that this matter would definitely be resolved satisfactorily.
However, the reality was far beyond everyone's expectations.
Qin Yanzui and Shen Ruo rushed to the scene as quickly as possible according to their positioning.
Ju Le and others saw two figures coming through the air from a distance, and couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
Just as they were getting ready to respond, a huge scythe suddenly fell from the sky and struck the path that the two masters must pass. Immediately, a skinny bone claw slowly appeared on the handle of the sickle. Following the bone claw, it gradually condensed into a humanoid creature about two meters tall.
The whole body was shrouded in black mist, and his face could not be seen clearly, but the terrifying aura exuding from his body was frightening, and even the crazy undead began to tremble.
Qin Yancui and Shen Ruo stopped in mid-air, looking at the sudden black shadow in shock.
"Ghost, Ghost King???"
There is only one Ghost King in the entire ancient battlefield, but he is definitely not in the first level barrier. However, they happened to meet in the first level of barrier. The teachers finally realized that there might be something wrong with the barrier. This large-scale undead invasion was not an accident.
The appearance of the Ghost King confused everyone.
This is a rhythm that doesn’t give people a way to survive!
Due to inaccurate intelligence, the Lingcha Tower only sent two Nascent Soul Stage monks, so there was still no problem in dealing with the undead spirits in the first layer of enchantment. But the strength is comparable to that of the Ghost King in the Void Refining Stage? There is no way to fight!
The two Nascent Soul stage masters can't even save themselves now, let alone rescue them.
The hope that had just been raised was completely shattered the moment the Ghost King appeared.
Because of this change, everyone who was still gritting their teeth and persisting lost their momentum and their willpower quickly disappeared like a flood.
A cold atmosphere enveloped the earth, and the eyes of the undead suddenly glowed with blood, as if they were on steroids, turning into a raging wave, rushing towards everyone crazily.
Everyone, who was seriously injured and almost exhausted of their magic power, looked at this scene helplessly and desperately, preparing to face death. It's not that they don't resist, but that they have tried their best. The rest of the battle will be supported by a fighting spirit. Now that they have even lost their fighting spirit, how can they persist
Seeing that everyone was about to be overwhelmed by the undead tide, thousands of teachers and students outside the barrier couldn't help but close their eyes.
You have finally persisted until now, are you about to give up like this
everyone's attention
It was dark, as if the soul was trembling, but the expected death did not come. In just an instant, the cold atmosphere around them disappeared. Looking at it carefully, everyone was surprised to find that most of the undead spirits that originally pounced on them had disappeared, forming an open space around them, as if the cake had been dug away. .
Everyone:? ? ? what's the situation? ?
The previous wave of undead disappeared, but it did not affect the subsequent undead to come up.
This time everyone saw it clearly. When the undead rushed to a position less than three meters away from them, it disappeared without warning as if it had entered another dimension.
Another dimension
Everyone's minds were agitated and they searched around, and sure enough they found the handsome ghost not far away.
He was hanging cross-legged in the air, playing with the magic talisman in one hand and twisting a strand of green silk in the other. The owner of the green silk was Yuanchu.
She stood next to Gui Shuai, with her long hair disheveled and blood stains on her face and body. If you observed carefully, you would find that the scars on her body were almost exactly the same as Wei He's.
The black mist around Gui Shuai almost enveloped her, making her look like she was imprisoned.
Wei He's pupils narrowed and he almost rushed over regardless. Was she controlled by that handsome ghost? What price did she pay to let him help? And that paw, how dare you touch her hair!
The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became. The Xuanxiao umbrella in his hand also felt his emotions, and the flames rose. .
At this time, the third wave of undead came again, and everyone cheered up and picked up their weapons.
Although they didn't know the reason, Gui Shuai's unexpected action rekindled their hope.
The undead were transferred in groups by space magic. The dense team was occasionally bald, and the ones missing were scattered undead that were not large-scale and were easily solved by everyone.
The battle took turns, and no one expected that the handsome ghost would actually help.
Everyone looked at Yuanchu in unison, and a question emerged in their minds: Is it because of her
The situation here has been alleviated, but the two Nascent Soul stage masters are in trouble.
Once locked by a ghost king, it is difficult to escape.
The two of them could only fight against the odds.
The Ghost King came out to show off, with no purpose other than to simply find the strongest creature to relieve his loneliness.
It happened that Qin Yanzui and Shen Ruo were at gunpoint. In the barrier, the Nascent Soul stage was the strongest existence.
Of course, it's not that there are no stronger ones, but the Ghost King also knows how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, so the stronger one is not someone he can play with. (Original: Yes, that’s me.)
The Ghost King pulled out his sickle and lifted it up to the two people in the air, as if to say: Come down if you are not afraid of death.
Qin Yansheng & Shen Ruo: No, we are afraid of death!
Seeing that the two of them were motionless, the Ghost King became impatient and slashed with his sword. The sharp sword light cut through the air and shot towards the two of them.
The two of them separated to avoid the sword light, and at the same time, they used their own weapons to fight the Ghost King.
Off the field—
[This assessment is really full of twists and turns, unexpected.]
[The teachers seem to be fine. It seems that the two experts are in need of rescue now.]
[Can they be considered as unsuccessful at the beginning...]
[I originally thought I would see a master
Killing everyone, the result...]
[The mood is suddenly a little subtle. I wonder how long they can hold on?]
[Lingcha Tower may have to find a master in the God Transformation stage to save the situation this time.]
[How can it be so easy to find masters in the transformation stage? Most of them are practicing in seclusion, right?]
[Well, run away. It will be safe as long as you leave the barrier.]
[Whether you can escape or not depends on the mood of the Ghost King.]
[What I’m more curious about is, why did that handsome ghost come to help?]
[I am also very curious? Did that girl make some kind of deal with Gui Shuai?]
[I suspect you were driving, but there is no proof.]
[Can you be more serious!]
…
A large number of undead souls were transferred away by the ghost commander, and Wei He and others finally cleaned up the remaining undead souls.
As soon as the crisis came into contact, everyone fell to the ground, gasping for breath, and even lost the strength to adjust their breath.
boom!
While he was relaxing, a loud noise suddenly came from the sky, and a powerful force of energy swept around in a circular shape.
Jule and other teachers felt the crisis and mobilized their last mana to build defenses.
boom!
The defense was instantly shattered, and several teachers bore the brunt. Their bodies flew backwards, and large mouthfuls of blood spurted out from their mouths. Before they landed, they were caught by several students, but they were obviously severely injured and completely lost their fighting power.
Everyone was horrified. Just the aftermath of Qi Jin was so powerful. If they faced the enemy head-on, wouldn't it be an instant kill with one move
Before everyone could stabilize their minds, the second wave of energy struck again.
"Defense!" A big word shot into the air with Qiao Mingce's final stroke.
At the same time, several students who still had some strength to spare began to use defensive spells.
I saw light flashing in the sky, and various defenses were layered together to protect everyone behind them.
But they all understood that with their current strength, it was impossible to resist that energy.
At this moment, a silver light flashed, and then there was a sound of freezing, and the air seemed to be covered with a layer of hoarfrost. The next second, blade-like energy swept across and collided with the defensive barrier. With a click, pieces of ice bloomed in the air, revealing the gray sky.
Everything returned to calm. The defensive barrier of Qiao Mingce and others was not damaged at all, and this wave of energy was perfectly blocked by a layer of frost barrier.
Wei He felt a pain in his chest, his throat felt sweet, and he almost spit out a mouthful of blood.
He immediately realized something and turned to look at Yuan Chu. He saw her face was calm, as if nothing had happened, but he knew that she must have put the defensive barrier just now, and she was injured because of it.
Thinking of this, Wei He couldn't care less and walked towards Yuanchu.
"Wait." A hand blocked his way, Yue Li said hesitantly, "Don't go there yet."
Wei He looked at him coldly and waved away his hand.
Yue Li continued: "We don't know her situation yet. If we approach rashly and anger that handsome ghost, she will be in danger."
Wei He stopped and stared at Yuan Chu silently: Are you okay? what should I do
Yuan Chu gave him a comforting look, but she didn't go there just because she didn't want to bring this handsome ghost with her.
The condition she asked Gui Shuai to help was to stay here and play with him for half a month. During this half month, this guy will follow her every step of the way.
Wei He stood stiffly on the spot, staring at her unblinkingly.
"We can't stay here any longer." Qiao Mingce said, "Teacher Song, do you still have magic power? Can you set up a teleportation array?"
Song Jing was one of the few teachers who was not seriously injured by Qi Jin. He adjusted his breathing for a while and said calmly: "I can set up the teleportation array, but the remaining mana can only teleport 5 people at most."
Qiao Mingce continued: "What if we transfer mana to you?"
Song Jing's eyes lit up: "It's feasible."
There were expressions of surprise on everyone's faces.
Time was running out, so everyone didn't say much. As long as there was any remaining mana, all was sent to Song Jing.
Song Jing immediately started to set up the formation, while the others were responsible for defense.
It takes about ten minutes to set up a fixed-point teleportation array. During this time, it must not be interrupted, otherwise you will have to start over.
"Oops, it's here again." Someone exclaimed.
In the air, a third wave of energy, mixed with black mist, swept toward the location of everyone.
Everyone's expressions became extremely ugly. They had just sent mana to Song Jing, and their defensive barrier was so fragile that it could be broken with a single poke. Even if no mana was sent, they could not withstand the impact of the energy, not to mention that this energy seemed to be stronger than The previous two waves were stronger.
"The teleportation array is almost ready, hold on!"
A familiar silver light flashed through, and everyone's defensive barrier was once again covered with a layer of frost.
Click!
Black mist mixed with broken ice, like clusters of will-o'-the-wisps, swayed around, releasing bursts of cold air. Those who were closer could not help but shiver, but what was gratifying was that this wave of energy was resisted again!
Everyone looked at Yuan Chu with surprise and admiration. There is a small silver snake circling in her right hand, and a handsome ghost shrouded in black mist stands on her left. This combination looks inexplicably cool.
Off the field—
[Who told me what my original cultivation level was? Stop talking about the late stage of Qi refining, even if you beat me to death, I won’t believe it!]
[Just now, several teachers were unable to hold back their energy when they tried to defend themselves. She actually succeeded twice. I couldn't even imagine her strength.]
[She is probably the most outstanding cub in this assessment.]
[By the way, what is her current ranking?]
[… the last place.]
[? ? ?]
[It’s unscientific. Didn’t she get rid of so many undead souls in the end?]
[That was done by Gui Shuai.]
[Perhaps in this assessment, there will be the strongest bottom-ranked person in history...]
Under the original guard, Song Jing successfully arranged the teleportation array and ordered: "Let the most injured go first and take away the teachers together."
The students had no objection and quickly lined up their order and entered the teleportation array one by one.
Song Jing needed mana to maintain the operation of the teleportation array. Wei He sat behind him, adjusting his breath while feeding him mana, and there were several people taking over.
The students and teachers were sent away one by one, and only Song Jing, Wei He, Yuan Chu, Qiao Mingce, Feng Hao, Yue Li and others were left.
"There is no need to send me any more mana. You can quickly enter the teleportation array." Song Jing urged.
Wei He did not move, but turned to look at Yuan Chu in the distance.
Qiao Mingce and others also looked over there.
Song Jing had no choice but to persuade: "You go first, I will take the original classmates back."
"I'll be with her." Wei He couldn't leave Yuan Chu behind.
[You go first.]At this time, Wei He suddenly received the original message.
[If you don’t leave, I won’t leave either.]He couldn't communicate, but he still responded in his mind.
[Teacher Song is dying, you must take him away.]
[You can give it to others.]
[That's too late.]
The sound transmission was interrupted, and Wei He was shocked. He turned his head suddenly and saw a black flame burning on the horizon, like rolling thunder clouds, accompanied by intertwined and flashing arcs, with a huge sound.
"No, you guys leave quickly!" Song Jing struggled to push Wei He and others into the teleportation array, and then started teleportation.
Wei He and Qiao Mingce reached out at the same time. The former wanted to rush out, while the latter grabbed Song Jing's arm. When the teleportation array was activated, he pulled him into the teleportation array with force, and Wei He was also knocked back. .
Original!
Wei He only had time to see the figure blur in his sight, and then completely disappear.
