Chapter 27: Conquering the Ghost Army
The appearance of the ghost general is just as the name suggests, wearing dark and thick armor, holding a nether broadsword, and his aura is soaring, not inferior to those battle-hardened generals, especially under the helmet of the mighty gold-swallowing beast, two dark green rays piercing the darkness are revealed, which makes the viewer tremble.
Luo Feng flicked his fingertips and shot out a sunburst talisman, which was activated halfway, bursting out with scorching light, and the first voice was snatched.
However, the yin aura that wrapped around the surface of the ghost general's body blocked all the scorching rays from the outside, protecting it from being affected.
The dark light flickered, and a netherworld sword slashed out.
Although Luo Feng was prepared, he dodged in advance under the prediction, but he was still half a beat slower, and his shoulder was torn out of a terrifying gap by the sharp knife, and blood splattered.
"Oops, my cultivation is too different from the other party!"
He was shocked, and hurriedly activated the red silkworm Gu hidden in the dantian.
The fat round Gu worm bounced like a spasm, releasing a powerful essence that filled the body's limbs and five remains.
Luo Fengton suddenly felt that his body seemed to be expanding, with infinite strength, and his six senses were even sharper than ever, as if the passage of time had become slow.
At this time, his pupils dilated suddenly, but he saw a sharp knife tip slashing directly at the door, less than three inches away, and the eerie sharp aura made his face hurt.
Luo Feng bent his waist on his back, made a move of the iron plate bridge, and he quickly waved his hand to strike a splitting palm, shaking the ghost who failed to attack.
Luo Feng was afraid for a while, if he hadn't improved his cultivation to the fivefold realm in time, he was afraid that with the knife just now, he would have already separated his body and head, and it was likely that he would not see the other party's movements clearly until he died.
"Careless, a few times to easily solve the opponent, let me give birth to an arrogant mentality, knowing that the opponent has the cultivation of the fivefold realm, but still want to rely on their own strength to compete, such a mentality is no longer self-confidence, but conceit. ”
In his mind, a series of thoughts quickly flashed, making Luo Feng reflect on his mistakes.
Maybe it was the persecution between life and death, but suddenly, he actually gave birth to a few realizations, and the spiritual platform was unprecedentedly clear.
Faintly, as if I had touched something, it was just a thin membrane that could be pierced with a little effort.
However, the ghost general's attack again interrupted his comprehension.
The sword is like a mirror, and the knife is like a prison.
The Netherworld Ghost Knife slashed at the face with a whining yin wind, and the knife moves were mixed with illusions, which actually had the effect of confusing people's minds.
But at this moment, Luo Feng's feelings were already calm, even if his comprehension was interrupted, his body and mind were still in the best state, only to see his left palm retracted and spit out, and the strength of his majestic palm slapped his head like a tide of anger.
The yin wind was suddenly extinguished, and the Nether Ghost Knife seemed to be stuck in countless spider webs, making it difficult to enter.
The ghost general's turquoise eyes flickered, and he first drew his knife and retreated, then opened his empty mouth, and with a roar, he spat out the ghost of a horse.
The ghost will turn over and ride on, and the person will borrow horsepower and gallop out, and at the same time take out a small black flag with his left hand, and wave it forward, and hundreds of crossbow arrows condensed by yin qi will shoot through the air, pouring like heavy rain.
Luo Feng was not in a hurry, and there was still room to comment: "After all, the wisdom of ghosts is general, ghosts are all floating, and they have lost their entities, four legs are no faster than two legs, and horses are not more impactful than no horses." ”
He slapped his palm forward, and the two qi forces, one positive and one negative, hedged to form a whirlpool of air currents, and wrenched all the Yin Qi crossbow arrows into pieces.
Then his hands were put together, like holding a jade cup, and suddenly the air vortex expanded, trapping the ghost general and the people and horses together, like being in a mire, difficult to move.
The ghost general struggled desperately, his whole body exuding a violent dead air, and he was about to break free.
Luo Feng sacrificed the Chaotic Heart Bell—the only magic weapon he could use—and vibrated a heart-shaking bell, and this kind of spiritual attack had a miraculous effect on the pure spirit body of the ghost type, and soon made the ghost general fall back into bondage, making it difficult to concentrate on breaking free.
Seizing the opportunity, Luo Feng swung up his body with all his might, his hair was windless and automatic, fluttering gently, and the silent Netherworld True Qi was urging, as if a big river was rushing and the tide was roaring, going faster and faster.
With both hands in his hands, the air around him swarmed together, like a hurricane blowing on the ground, and converged in an instant, condensing into a mass of air currents cut at high speed inside, and even more attached to the slightest ghostly aura,
Luo Feng pushed forward with both palms, and with the roar of the cannonballs, the air flow group roared and galloped, and the ghost general who was about to get out of trouble was in the middle, and the internal chaotic air flow suddenly broke out.
Thousands of air blades spread out in all directions, as if a giant beast opened its mouth and wanted to devour it.
There was a sound of breaking through the air, and each air blade was no less than a sharp weapon cutting, and when it splashed on the ground, it would cut a deep ravine.
The dark armor on the Oni General's body was shattered, and his whole body was badly injured, and he lay on the ground unable to move, exuding a rancid smell.
Although its cultivation has five levels, which is theoretically equivalent to the fivefold realm of a monk, it has many weaknesses after all, such as low spiritual intelligence and not knowing how to transform in battle, such as no martial arts, fighting only by instinct, such as no magic weapon, even the Netherworld Ghost Knife in his hand is condensed with Yin Qi.
Therefore, in the battle of the same level, ghosts or demon beasts are often inferior to human monks with supernatural powers.
Luo Feng exhaled a long breath, and his luck adjusted his breath, allowing the Red Silkworm Gu to return to calm, and the essence yuan that filled his limbs and five bones also retracted, making him experience the feeling of ups and downs.
Although he knew that these were external forces, not his own cultivation, but he felt that the power disappeared like a low tide, Luo Feng still felt a little lost, and after a while, he adjusted his feelings.
"Although the power is good, it is not your own, and it is harmful to overindulge in it. What's more, it's just a fivefold realm, and you can reach it quickly with your own efforts, so there's no need to be reluctant. ”
He shifted his attention to the seriously injured ghost general, and after a period of rest, this fierce guy absorbed the yin qi around him, and actually had the strength to struggle.
It was also Luo Feng's subordinates who showed mercy, if he had used not the Netherworld True Qi before, but the Ten Thousand Tu Yuan Gong, I am afraid that he would have been scattered by now.
Of course, it would be a waste to do so, and a ghost general who knows how to arrange troops is a precious talent, and it will be a great help after recovery.
After being notified by heart, the ghost master quickly came over, cast the ghost trick, and after some tossing, subdued the ghost general as his subordinate.
It's just that the ghost trick is different from the trick of controlling the king, the latter allows the cultivation of the master to exceed the master, and even the master can get a subsidy to improve the divine element, but the former does not allow it, once the cultivation of the ghost slave overrides the master, it is very likely to rebel and break free from the shackles of the contract.
This is the difference between elite tactics and military tactics.
The current strength of the ghost master is only the third order, and once the ghost general wakes up, the probability of being betrayed is more than ninety percent.
Fortunately, in the environment he is in now, there are a large number of Yin ghosts, if they are devoured, they can definitely be promoted to the fourth order, and then find other powerful ghosts to eat, they may not be able to break through to the fifth order.
Having lost the commander, the remaining Yin Ghosts were just a rabble, and under the command of Luo Feng, it took three days for the Ghost Master and the Ghost Worm to subdue them all.
Excluding the unlucky ghosts who were devoured by the ghost worms in the early stage, there were more than 7,000 of them who were included in the Ten Thousand Ghost Banners, but this was far from enough to make the ghost master rise two levels in a row.
The difference in strength between the upper and lower levels of ghost creatures is very large, and the hundred-fold gap is not excessive, not to mention the loss in the absorption process, often after devouring one, the cultivation that is really absorbed is less than two percent of the original body.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, it is better to simply discuss the efficiency of increasing combat power and collect ghosts as subordinates than to devour them to strengthen a certain subordinate.
In a special case, like Luo Feng, he received a powerful subordinate, but because of the lack of cultivation of the imperial master, it was difficult to control it, so he had to be promoted.
"This area has been cleared, but it seems that there is still a long way to go to break the ban. ”
Luo Feng looked around, the territory that originally belonged to the ghost generals had been restored to tranquility, and there were no more ghosts raging, but a little farther away, it was still filled with gray mist, filled with the unique eerie atmosphere of ghost creatures.
But these gray mist are very self-disciplined, and will not invade this clear space, which is clear.
Tongtian Gushu said: "Probably the same as the situation in the natural world, powerful demon beasts have a territory of their own, prohibiting the invasion of other competitors.
Since the prohibition of this relic is helpless even for the heavenly and human powerhouses, it is reasonable to have the current scale, but the most effective way to break the ban is to take away the core magic weapon of the suppression array, but there is no need to encircle and suppress it from the periphery layer by layer, if you want to avoid it, you can still do it. ”
Luo Feng pondered for a moment, shook his head and said: "It is rare to gather so many Yin Ghosts here, it is a pity to miss it, it may be a dangerous area for other monks, but in the eyes of the Ghost Dao Monks, it is a treasure land, just to raise the war with war, and it is nothing to drag on for some time." Anyway, I'm ready to stay here for a long time. ”
Tongtian Gushu asked puzzledly: "Why do you plan to do this?"
"Because to go out is to die. ”
Luo Feng said calmly, as if the things he was talking about had nothing to do with him: "From the analysis of what Bai Gu Zhenren did, he did not tell the Sù sect the news of the ruins here, but chose to hide it in private and explore it alone, so in order to ensure that the secret will not be exposed, he will definitely not leave anyone alive." I suspect that the Gu worms planted in our group of pathfinder disciples also have the effect of killing mouths. ”
Tongtian Gushu asked worriedly: "Then what are you going to do, you can't stay here to cultivate until you are promoted to a celestial and have the power to protect yourself before going out, right?"
"There are some ideas, but it takes timing...... Put it on hold for the time being, no matter how long-term the plan is, you have to start with the things in front of you. The first task at the moment is to empty all the ghosts here, so that it can not only break the ban, but also enhance its strength, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone. ”
Luo Feng looked at the foggy sky around him, commanded the ghost masters who had gained a lot in the past two days, and the ghost oysters who had eaten heartily, and started a big sweep operation.
