Tome of Troubled Times

Chapter 724: The Change of the Spirits

Of course Yue Hongling could escape.

The third level of secret treasure and the ability of the Heavenly Ranking were already the pinnacle of martial arts in the world of the past. They were a small group of the strongest and like legendary existences, which ordinary warriors could not understand at all.

A sword from the ground broke through the sky, and thousands of mountains and rocks could not stop the power of this sword.

As the sword flashed, the boulders shattered, and the people were already on top of the cemetery. Looking down from the air at the earthquake-like collapse scene below, Yue Hongling's eyes were cold, and he held the sword in his hand tighter.

The earthquake below was not caused by the collapse, but by the Black Miao King stepping up step by step. With each step, the ground shook, and the huge rocks above smashed on his head and turned into powder, not hurting him at all.

Yue Hongling still needed to use the sword, but now he only needed to use his body. The head that had been chopped off in half now seemed to add a layer of horror to him, making people feel numb.

Judging from the experience of Maitreya and his monk soldiers transforming into demons, their skin is as hard as iron and impervious to swords and guns, and they have infinite strength. Although Tang Wanzhuang and Suzaku were able to defeat them together, they were unable to control them. They are much stronger than the living Maitreya.

At the beginning, Xue Wu was not specialized in the method of corpse puppets. His main business was to control beasts. I don't know where he got some methods of corpse puppets from. With the foundation of the Buddhist lotus platform, he mixed some corpse puppet methods and used them as beast control. Even so, he was able to make Maitreya stronger. What effect would this real corpse puppet method controlled by a master have

"Crack!" A rock was pushed away, and the Black Miao King poked half of his body out.

A sword beam pierced his only remaining eye socket without mercy, and the sword energy went straight through, piercing the back of his head with a clang, without any damage. It didn't even have the effect of stopping him, and the Black Miao King had already jumped out of the ground.

The single black eye socket stared at Yue Hongling's face. Although it was empty, one could read the clear cruelty and brutality in it. The evil and deathly aura it emitted swept out. The birds flying over the cemetery died silently and were already rotten when they fell to the ground.

Fortunately, the cemetery itself was on the outskirts of the city, and the earthquake-like noise had already scared away the people nearby, so there was no one within miles around.

Only the strong vitality in Yue Hongling stimulated the Black Miao King to become more violent. He let out a sharp friction roar from his throat and suddenly pounced towards Yue Hongling.

Yue Hongling looked calm. He deliberately restrained his energy and flew backwards to observe the movements of the Black Miao King.

However, the Black Miao King was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned around and rushed towards Taoyuan Town.

Yue Hongling once again unleashed his full energy and pierced the Black Miao King's back of the head with another sword.

"..." The Black Miao King paused for a moment, then became furious and turned around and swept wildly.

Yue Hongling flashed so fast that a terrifying energy force passed in front of her, scattering the medicine on her face and leaving pits all over it.

Yue Hongling stepped back a few steps, supported herself on the ground with one hand and wiped her face with the other, then simply removed her disguise and felt refreshed.

The force on the opposite side is truly terrifying. The real power of splitting mountains is just like this. It is no match for it.

But it can be seen that his speed is average and his mind is confused, but he is not incapable of fighting.

He was controlled by someone, and his target must be Taoyuan Town. If this war machine broke into Taoyuan Town, even if there were 100,000 troops, they would be crushed to pieces, and the Eldar's defense would fall apart in an instant. The other party was determined to attack from both inside and outside and destroy the Eldar in one fell swoop!

But from the current situation, it seems that the controller is not fully controlling it, and is only giving basic instructions. This basic instruction cannot completely cover the hatred of a newborn corpse demon for life and the desire for killing. After all, the corpse demons at the Heavenly Ranking level are not a joke. If the other party does not concentrate on controlling it, it is really impossible to make it completely obedient. So as long as he entangles it, the corpse demon will be hated.

Therefore, we must try our best to entangle the corpse demon and not let it escape to Taoyuan Town, which would be a catastrophe.

In addition... the opponent's control is insufficient. Does this phenomenon mean that the manipulator is doing other more important things at this time and can't take care of fully manipulating the Black Miao King? Even the Black Miao King is not worthy of full control, so what is Zhao Changhe facing!

Even if we can't get entangled, we must make a quick decision and go to help Changhe! Yue Hongling's eyes were sharp and fierce, and his retreating figure stopped. He turned around and shot with lightning, pointing directly at the Black Miao King's forehead!

This kind of person is not vulnerable to damage at all, and even if his consciousness is chaotic, he cannot fight. He must find out where the opponent's "soul fire" is to determine the outcome. A quick battle means adding countless risks, but Yue Hongling doesn't care.

Sister will help you!

… …

When Yue Hongling followed Dao Qingfeng into the cemetery, things started to change for Sisi.

After the leaders of each tribe paid their respects, most of the irrelevant people had left. The remaining ones were basically the elders of the Holy Mountain, and those who had other private plans and seemed to have left, but in fact they lingered on the Holy Mountain.

As a result, the guards of the Holy Mountain also quietly changed their defense arrangements under the arrangement of some disloyal people.

The atmosphere had unknowingly become a little strange, and Sisi, who was crying and dazed inside the temple, seemed to be unaware of it. A senior elder in the temple slowly spoke: "Saintess, since Mr. Ye has passed away, can we consider the issue of taming the divine axe?"

Sisi glanced at him. Originally, she and her master had put on this play because she had noticed that an enemy had sneaked in to covet the divine axe. When Ye Wuzong "died", the divine axe was without a master. Once the temple was "not well guarded", it would be easy for the enemy to "steal the axe". This play was designed to lure out the enemy, but of course it would be best if the inner ghost could be caught in one fell swoop.

It was not unusual for a family member to want the divine axe, but it was impossible to tell whether this person was a traitor or not. Sisi answered casually, "It is disrespectful to say this before Master's body is cold. If you want the divine axe, you should at least wait until the seventh day. What is making the Great Elder so anxious?"

The great elder said, "Because controlling the Divine Axe is not easy. Even if we work together to suppress it, it will take a long time to completely subdue it. If we wait until after the seventh day to start preparations, the Divine Axe may be out of control for more than half a month. It may be okay in the short term, but in more than half a month, the Divine Axe may recover its spirit and run away... It will be too late to regret it then."

This does make sense, but Sisi couldn't let anyone try to control the axe at this time. If they found out that the master of the divine axe was still alive, it would be a big mistake. She could only say, "If that's the case, then I'll try to control the axe first, and there will be no complaints, right?"

The great elder bowed and said, "Please don't blame me, Saint. Since you are willing to control the axe, we certainly have no objection."

Sisi nodded, slowly stood up, walked to the divine axe and stroked it gently.

Regardless of whether the axe spirit has an owner or not, if it is touched by outsiders, it will immediately explode in resistance. You will have to expend a lot of effort to suppress it, and you will not be able to escape for a while.

From the perspective of others, Sisi's whole body was filled with electricity. Her pretty face looked serious and a little painful. It was obvious that she was expending a huge amount of strength to fight against the axe spirit.

Some people looked at each other quietly, secretly saying in their hearts that God was helping them.

You have to know that even the Thief Saint on the Heavenly Ranking would be seriously injured if he tried to suppress the Axe Spirit. With Sisi's strength, even if she wasn't trying to subdue the Axe Spirit immediately but just testing it, the energy she spent would still be enormous.

If the spirits were to control the axe in a normal situation, it would obviously be a group of elders and the saintess working together, and everyone would have a lot of spare energy, so it would be difficult for any problems to occur. But now, out of respect for her master's recent death, Sisi refused to let others touch her at this time, and would rather face it alone. So she was at her weakest at this moment, and could not withstand any sneak attacks.

The great elder who had just advised Sisi to control the axe secretly winked at the people around him.

Suddenly, the sound of swords being unsheathed was heard in the temple. Several elders, protectors, and leaders suddenly attacked and simultaneously attacked and controlled the other elders. The chief elder suddenly attacked and pointed a finger at Sisi's back.

There were also shouts and screams outside the palace. The traitors who had intentionally stayed behind and who had intentionally been replaced by their own people took collective action and attacked the Holy Mountain guards who were at a loss as to what to do.

The hall was in chaos in an instant. Many elders and guards were caught off guard and controlled. Some of the stronger ones drew their swords and fought against the traitors, but were defeated one after another. "Are you crazy?"

Before he finished speaking, a terrifying scream was heard. Everyone was startled and turned around to see that the elder who attacked Sisi had been bitten by some poisonous insect. His hand was gnawed into bones in an instant. The electric current on Sisi's body was transferred to him without reservation, forming a lightning cage that paralyzed him and restricted him to the spot. He could only let the poisonous insect bite him, which was miserable.

Sisi slowly turned her head, her usually charming peach blossom eyes were now extremely cold: "Kill."

As the words were spoken, the ground rumbled and a young blood turtle stepped onto the holy mountain.

The sound of an eagle was heard from the sky. A huge goshawk was circling in the sky. With its sharp claws, it grabbed hundreds of rebels and lifted them into the sky. Then they fell down and turned into meat paste with screams.

Countless strange beasts appeared inside and outside the holy mountain.

Sisi glanced at the dull temple and said coldly: "The war in Middle-earth has revealed that having more people is no longer useful... Whoever has the power of gods and demons will be the master of the earth. But you still don't understand."

"Really?" Suddenly there was laughter, and a black shadow passed by Sisi swiftly and grabbed the divine axe: "Since the Saint doesn't want the divine axe, we can take it away...Ah!!!"

A terrifying scream was heard, and the man had been electrocuted into charcoal, without even being able to finish his last words.

He never understood until his death that he clearly knew how to control the axe and avoid backlash, but Sisi was fine while he was violently electrocuted to death by the axe.

The only possibility was that the axe still had an owner, but he no longer had the chance to say it.

"Swoosh, swish, swish!" Countless batches of assassins from Tingxue Tower who had sneaked in appeared around the temple. They couldn't control the chaotic battle situation, but since Sisi's original strength was insufficient, they could still kill her by beheading her!
