Starting from the folklore forum, making up town objects

Chapter 428 The Crisis of City Destruction
"Brother Lin, what do you think we should do after we finish our Yin cultivation? Right now, I feel like we're just like logistics personnel."

Outside the main tomb chamber, one of the five Yin cultivators complained to Lin Yibai.

The other Yin Cultivation specialists also looked disappointed upon hearing this.

When they first became Yin cultivators, wasn't it all for the sake of making a difference, to go further in their limited years, and to strive for a better future for the next generation?

But now, a piece of equipment that provides warmth and a special piece of equipment have completely suppressed them!
If they had known they would become logistics personnel, why would they have chosen the path of Yin cultivation? Joining logistics directly would have allowed them to live for decades longer.

Lin Yibo removed the book from his face and looked at the several dejected Yin Xiu.

Although I'm not optimistic about the future of the Yin cultivators, I have to offer them some comfort since we're colleagues.

"In my opinion, you don't need to think too much. The number of Yin cultivators in Great Xia far exceeds that of Yang cultivators, and before the advent of Warm Sun and special equipment, it was mostly Yin cultivators who fought for Great Xia."

"The Great Xia will never forget the sacrifices made by the Yin cultivators."

"In my opinion, since the General Administration can develop something like the Warm Sun Equipment, it shouldn't be too difficult to research how to safely remove the evil spirits from Yin Xiu's body."

"Let's wait a little longer. Maybe we'll hear news next year, and then you'll be able to switch from Yin cultivation to Yang cultivation."

Hearing that even a top-notch team leader like Lin Yibo said this, the mood of the several Yin Cultivation specialists improved a bit.

Yes, how could the General Administration just give up on us Yin cultivators who have made great contributions to the Great Xia?

Lin Yibai, standing to the side, sighed inwardly as he looked at the smiling faces of the Yin cultivators.

Just as he was about to go back to sleep, the technician next to him suddenly shouted, "Team leader, something's wrong!"

Swish!
Lin Yibo instantly stood up from the recliner, his blood and qi surging out from his feet, and he arrived at the technician's side in one step.

"what happened?"

"The consumption of Yang Stones on the monitoring robots placed in the tomb chamber has suddenly increased rapidly!"

Lin Yibo looked at the screen and saw that the Yin Qi concentration, which was originally level 2, had now soared to level 4!
Level 4 is already capable of nurturing a ghost of the level of a fierce spirit!

"What's going on? Aren't the people inside responding?"

As soon as Lin Yibo said those words, he saw the Yin Qi concentration on the screen, which was originally level 4, jump to the very top.

Level 10!
Lin Yibo's pupils contracted sharply, and he immediately rushed into the tomb chamber.

Level 10!
How could I suddenly reach level 10?

What exactly is in the tomb?!
Moving at full speed, Lin Yibo quickly passed through the hundreds of meters of tomb passage and arrived inside the tomb chamber.

But as soon as he went in, his feet were rooted to the spot!
As far as the eye can see, in the main burial chamber, which is nearly 100 square meters in size, a river runs across the chamber, suspended in mid-air from one end to the other.

Everyone in the tomb was staring in disbelief at the river.

Lin Yibo forced himself to shift his gaze from the river to the people in the tomb.

Fifteen people had entered in total, but now only ten remained.

"What about people!"

Lin Yibo shouted loudly, waking the four Yangxiu specialists up.

Immediately, a commissioner, his face pale, pointed to a spot where the river passed and said, "They...they were swept away by that river!"

"Explain to me clearly how it was stolen!"

Lin Yibo dared not make any rash moves, because the eerie aura emanating from the river terrified him!
With just one glance, he knew this was something he couldn't handle!

"Those experts were studying in front of that stone tablet when the river suddenly appeared. Li Wang tried to save them, but as soon as he got close, he was pulled into the river by dozens, no, hundreds of hands reaching out from it!"

Lin Yibo's eye twitched.

"Everyone else, get out of here now!"

“Those on the other side of the river, now slowly climb over from under the river.”

Upon hearing Lin Yibai's instructions, the six people on this side quickly ran into the tomb passage, while Zhuang Ye, the only expert, had to be carried out by the others because his legs were too weak.

After everyone had left, Lin Yibo suddenly instructed the four specialists opposite him, "One by one!"

He didn't know the river's attack range, and if they all moved at once, he feared they would all be wiped out.

But after Lin Yibo finished speaking, no one moved.

They weren't fools; they knew the first person was there to scout ahead.

Upon seeing this, Lin Yibo's forehead veins bulged.

"If you're not leaving, then stay here!"

As he spoke, Lin Yibo was about to go out and report on the situation here.

Seeing this, someone finally set off.

But he didn't climb directly. The river was only 1.5 meters below the ground. Fearing something might go wrong, he used his qi and blood to dig in the ground, digging a full half meter before he started to crawl forward.

In this way, he would be two meters away from the river!
This approach caught the attention of the other three Yang Xiu.

Immediately, they all unleashed the power of their internal energy to dig a hole in the ground!
Just as Lin Yibo breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this scene, he realized something was amiss.

The river, which had been calm and flowing slowly since he entered, suddenly began to ripple.

"Oh no, don't use your qi and blood!"

Lin Yibo shouted loudly.

But in the end, it was too late!
No one expected that when the four people unleashed their full power, it would lead to consequences they could not bear.

A wave surged up in that river!

After the waves appeared, they rushed towards the four people, with the first one to be hit being the commissioner who had taken the lead.

Even though he was already running backward, the pit he had dug limited his speed of turning around.

The waves immediately crashed onto him.

Before the waves could engulf him, the arm that appeared in the water pulled him into the water and disappeared.

But the waves had not stopped and were rushing straight towards the three of them.

In the face of life and death, all three of them unleashed all their vital energy and were propelled backward.

The wave stopped after only three meters, which relieved them.

But when they looked up, their eyes were filled with despair.

After that wave, a second wave has already risen!
In the blink of an eye, all three were swept up in the waves.

Meanwhile, Lin Yibo had already run out of the passage.

After seeing the three of them unleash such powerful energy to escape, he saw the formation of the second wave.

He immediately knew that the three of them had no hope.

He ran for more than ten meters before daring to use his qi and blood power.

After he exited the tomb passage, he went straight to the technician.

"Get me to the bureau chief!"

The phone rang ten times before it was answered.

"Chief! Something's happened! A river has appeared in the tomb! A river with an even higher concentration of yin energy than the Blood Disaster!"

Lin Yibo said, his forehead covered in sweat. But then, when he heard what the bureau chief said, he was completely stunned.

"Is it a river floating in the air?"

"Chief, someone reported this to you?"

Lin Yibo looked at the people around him.

"Yes, someone did report it, but it wasn't one of your people, it was someone else."

“Come back. Rivers like that have appeared in multiple locations in Akiha City. I suspect this was premeditated.”

After saying that, the call was disconnected.

Lin Yibo was stunned for a while before saying to the others, "Everyone evacuate from here and assemble at the station! Remember, if you encounter that river, do not use your qi and blood power near it! And do not touch it!"

After saying that, Lin Yibo rushed out of the tomb alone.

The cemetery is located three kilometers outside Qiuye City. After leaving, Lin Yibo did not drive. Instead, he unleashed his full power and sped towards the city.

In just over a minute, he was about to leave the suburbs and approach the city.

But as he ran, his pace slowed down.

He saw the river that emerged from underground and flowed slowly towards the center of Akihabara City.

He turned around and glanced at the direction the river had come from.

Isn't this the river that flows through the tomb?

Its target is actually Akiha City?
Lin Yibo suddenly understood why the director said it was premeditated. If it were just sneaky, how could they have gone straight to Qiuye City?

While avoiding the location where the river was said to appear, Lin Yibo called the team behind him and asked them to clear out all the people near the river when they came over!
Lin Yibo had already seen someone approaching, but he didn't go over directly.

Either they are being cautious, or someone has already been drawn into it!
Lin Yibo didn't have time to deal with the affairs of just a few people. Now it seems that the entire Qiuye City is about to fall into a crisis because of this river!

After speeding all the way back, Lin Yibo was immediately summoned to the conference room.

At this moment, there were about twenty people in the conference room, some standing and some sitting!
Nearly half of them are top-tier team leaders like him, and the rest are senior team leaders who are close to being top-tier team leaders.

Even of the three Taoist priests from the Qiuxian Temple—the old, the middle-aged, and the young—the other two, excluding the oldest, came.

"Alright, Lin Yibo, tell me about the river you experienced."

When Chi Hongqiao saw Lin Yibo come in, he immediately told him to start speaking.

Lin Yibo did not hesitate and told him what he had seen.

Chi Hongqiao nodded, then said to everyone, "We will temporarily call that river the Dead River. There are six known Dead Rivers around Qiuye City, distributed in a six-pointed star shape in the six directions of Qiuye City."

"By predicting their trajectory, we anticipate that in two hours, these six dead rivers will converge about 100 meters directly above the center of Akihabara City."

"I don't know what will happen then, but I do know that we can't let them come together successfully; we have to stop them!"

Chi Hongqiao looked at everyone and continued, "Currently, those six dead rivers haven't shown any intention to attack, so we still have time."

"Next, everyone present will be divided into six teams and form their own teams, but each team must have at least two top team leaders."

"After forming a team, go to the armory to collect 'Warm Sunshine' and special equipment. Everyone must have the mesh screen and sachet among the special equipment; take the rest as needed."

"As for 'Warm Sun,' each team should bring at least one 'Warm Sun' with a diameter of one meter, ten 'Warm Sun' with a diameter of fifty centimeters, and one hundred 'Warm Sun' with a diameter of ten centimeters to test the effect of different degrees of 'Warm Sun' on that river. Team Leader Yin Xiu, remember to avoid it."

"I need to get the test data on dealing with those six rivers in half an hour."

"Furthermore, I have already reported the situation here to the General Administration, and the information from the General Administration has been relayed back."

Chi Hongqiao's expression was somewhat solemn.

"Of all the cities in Great Xia, only our Qiuye City has suffered such an attack. The headquarters will send people with more 'Warm Sunshine' and support within an hour."

Upon hearing this, some people's expressions turned serious, while others remained puzzled.

"Director, since only our city was attacked, it means it wasn't the work of some large underground organization. These six rivers shouldn't be a difficult problem to solve."

As soon as these words were spoken, someone sneered.

"It is precisely because our city is the only one that is under attack that it is the most difficult to deal with."

Everyone looked over and saw that the one speaking was the most senior and top-tier Yin cultivator leader.

"how do I say this?"

Another team leader, who hadn't quite figured it out, asked.

"Hehe, at this critical juncture, any organization that dares to show its face and cause trouble is naturally not a small group. The Divine Envoy Organization attacked so many cities before, which already gave us a lot of trouble. If the Divine Envoy Organization had focused all its energy on one city at that time, what do you think would have happened?"

Upon hearing this, those who hadn't yet figured it out immediately changed their expressions.

God has driven those people mad. Let alone concentrating on one city, concentrating on three cities could turn those three cities upside down!

Thinking about it this way, this attack, which only targeted Akiha City, is probably hiding a turbulent undercurrent beneath the calm surface!

"Could it be someone sent by the gods again?"

Some people speculated, but before the topic could be discussed further, it was interrupted by Chi Hongqiao.

"Alright, there's no point in speculating. Let's get started. I hope you'll all do your best to accomplish this."

Chi Hongqiao looked at everyone.

“Akiha City has always been peaceful and tranquil. I don’t want any problems to lead to its collapse.”

"Everyone, please!"

Seeing Chi Hongqiao's reaction, everyone's expressions turned serious, and they formed their own teams and left the conference room.

After bowing to Chi Hongqiao, the two Taoist priests left the meeting room.

After everyone left, a hint of worry appeared in Chi Hongqiao's eyes.

He was still struggling with something on his mind.

What should the people in the city do?
With only two hours left, even if they wanted to evacuate, it would be impossible to complete the evacuation.

Once such a major decision is made, the entire population of Qiuye City will be mobilized, and the conflicts that occur on the streets will not be resolved in a short period of time.

Judging from the fact that those dead rivers penetrate the ground, air-raid shelters are completely useless.

It seems there's only one path left.

That is how to resolve this crisis!
With a determined look in her eyes, Chi Hongqiao left the office!

……

The location of the underworld at Sanfeng Mountain.

Just as Chen Xin was worrying about absorbing the evil spirit's talisman, several filtered messages suddenly came from the illusionary body.

"A suspended river appearing underground? A Netherworld Weasel that advanced to the Underworld level in half a day? A meeting request from headquarters?"

He was curious about everything.

"It's a good opportunity to clear my head."

Having abandoned his fabrications about the town's inhabitants, Chen Xin left Sanfeng Mountain!
