Chapter 329 His strongest point is his physical body

After a brief rest, the group set off again from the mountains, only to collide with the massive horde of corpses.

By the time we reached the frontier of the wind, it was already dark.

But they did not stop; instead, they continued forward.

Deep within the border between Zhongzhou and Liangzhou lies a large ruin, created by the Chen Clan of Immortals. Amidst the looming shadows, one can already see the surging tide of corpses, densely packed and enough to make one's scalp tingle.

However, what was somewhat comforting was that although the horde of zombies had taken a heavy toll on them, there were no casualties.

"The Immortal Sect is indeed the Immortal Sect. With them leading it, even this raging tide of corpses isn't so terrifying."

"Things are going too smoothly; I'm afraid something might go wrong."

He Long, the head of the He family, and another elder, He Xing, were exchanging words as they fought, their voices constantly audible amidst the clashes.

Hearing He Long's concerns, He Xing couldn't help but frown and say, "Those people certainly won't sit idly by and wait to die; they must have a backup plan. But there's no need to worry too much."

"Why?"

"The six major immortal sects have come together to surround us, like a cage. Even if something changes, it won't cause much trouble."

As the two were talking, they saw He Ye wave his hand and order the disciples of the Zuoqiu family to join them.

The two patriarchs were thinking similarly to He Xing. They were not far from their destination, and other immortal sects would soon surround them. Even if they encountered resistance, there would be no major trouble.

However, to be on the safe side, it's still safer to go with the people around you.

Ji You also crossed over from the mountains, leading the Lu sisters and Cao Jingsong and others in a southwest direction, cutting an arc through the horde of corpses. During this time, he pulled back that brave and fearless figure several times, and he could feel the slight difference in the feel of the touch.

One is slightly rounder, while the other, though not as round, is more elastic.

This made him wonder if he had hit the same buttocks.

hum-

The ordinary version of the Dao Sword Lesser Heavy Mountain slashed through the air. Ji You pulled the overly advanced woman into his arms and retreated rapidly amidst the surging tide of corpses, while subconsciously looking down.

Lu Qingqiu was nestled obediently in his arms, her head bowed as if she were playing the role of a younger sister.

Miss Lu has always presented herself as elegant and rational, appearing more mature than the lively Lu Hanyan.

Ji You had previously lamented that although they were clearly sisters, their personalities were completely different for some reason.

As expected of sisters, no wonder their touches are different.

However, three breaths ago, he had made one himself, which seemed different from Lu Qingqiu's; it was larger, like a ripe peach.

Ji You glanced slightly backward.

Wen Zhengxin and Ban Yangshu were currently providing cover from the rear, wielding their swords and charging around, their expressions solemn and serious.

"What were you doing, suddenly speeding forward like that?"

Ban Yangshu had just been holding the rear alone and had almost been clawed by those sharp claws. Now that he finally had a chance to catch his breath, he couldn't help but ask a question with lingering fear.

"I saw that Rulong was rushing too fast and I was afraid that something would happen to him, so I went to help him with a sword before I came back."

As Wen Zhengxin answered Ban Yangshu's question, he couldn't help but gently rub his buttocks with his palm, looking serious and earnest.

Even a spanking can cause rubbing...

The concern that Ru Long might get into trouble was just a lie told by Sister Zhengxin.

Ji You clicked his tongue, then abruptly released Lu Qingqiu from his arms, reached out and grabbed Bai Rulong, who was in real danger, and forcefully threw him backward.

You can't just hug someone randomly, after all, there are differences between men and women.

In that instant of backward swing, he angrily drew his sword, and the rising sword energy instantly pressed down with heavy force, shattering the evil seeds in front of him. At the same time, the sharp sword energy directly cut a narrow opening through the horde of corpses.

As the group roared through, Ji You couldn't help but furrow his brow slightly when they passed through a canyon that was a necessary passage.

"Don't be reckless. Stop for a moment and find an opportunity to replenish with spirit stones."

"what happened?"

"I just suddenly felt that the movements of the evil corpse seemed to have changed."

"trend?"

Ji You looked around, a golden light surging in his eyes.

It was past Shen Shi (3-5 PM), and there was hardly any light left in the surrounding area. In addition, the dense horde of corpses and the constantly rising dust waves obscured the view, making the surroundings blurry and indistinct.

However, one thing is clear: the direction in which the evil corpses surged.

He traveled from Qingzhou across two states back to the Heavenly Academy, and on the way, he also visited the Du and Bai families, facing countless surging tides of corpses.

Just as he and Immortal Emperor Rulong said, the way to control these evil species is actually very simple. Basically, they are moved to the east, west, south, and north, and made to keep attacking and killing them.

But just now, he sensed that the direction of these evil creatures had changed, as if they were constantly tightening in a circle.

It's not that kind of control anymore; it's as if someone is manipulating them skillfully.

With a sudden thought, Ji You immediately tried to call a halt to the other teams around her, only to find that they had already sped away into the canyon.

However, not long after, they suddenly slowed down, seemingly sensing the strange movements of the evil species.

He Lingxiu, Shi Junhao, and Chai Ze exchanged glances, secretly crushing the spirit stones to absorb their essence and spiritual energy, their gazes becoming slightly more cautious.

The earlier guess was correct; as expected, resistance was encountered when approaching the ruins.

The next instant, they discovered that the horde of zombies had already built walls tens of meters high on all sides of the canyon.

Before the surging tide of corpses, like black lines, dozens of imposing figures roared in, their powerful auras causing the cliffs around the canyon to creak.

Their eyes were bloodshot, but they were not evil beings; they were humans, and they were leading the tide in, seemingly intent on burying everyone here.

Sensing the approaching aura, everyone's expression suddenly changed, as if this was not resistance but rather an encirclement.

"Faster, faster."

"That's already at top speed..."

At this moment, on the border of Liangzhou, three stewards were rushing over on a huge flying sword, constantly attacking the evil creatures that were rising into the air, their eyes filled with barely suppressed shock.

Elder Yu's group had not returned for a long time, and they were worried. However, fearing that the news would cause suspicion among the group, they quietly went back to search for them.

Then they saw a small mountain of corpses, with blood-stained Heavenly Academy robes piled up, standing out conspicuously in the black horde of zombies.

All the disciples in the squad died, and the six elders who were holding the line also perished, their chests riddled with holes.

Elder Yu, in particular, had half of his body smashed into a pulp.

Then they learned that the team hadn't walked far after they split up.

The horde of zombies wasn't just made up of evil beings; they'd been followed from the moment they left the capital...

Most importantly, the fact that they were able to kill six elders in a row meant that the enemy hiding in the shadows was far greater than they had initially expected.

The three leaders exerted all their strength, riding their flying swords across the border of Liangzhou, fearing that the enemy might underestimate their strength.

But then they saw a massive, unprecedented horde of zombies pressing down from not far away, and their expressions changed drastically.

Beyond that canyon was their planned next rest stop, where they would recover their spiritual energy.

In other words, those who were surrounded by the zombie horde had all exhausted their spiritual energy in the battle and were now in a relatively weak state.

puff--

In the midst of the frenzied battle, the Liu family from Zhongzhou, who had come with the Heavenly Academy, were wiped out in an instant. The exploding blood mist directly stained the row of evil beings in front of the zombie horde crimson.

Almost at the same moment, the Wu family of Yunzhou was also torn to pieces.

Under the protection of several Boundless Realm elders, the He family quickly retreated, but still suffered heavy losses.

Everyone's scalp tingled instantly. They realized that the evil creature that was attacking them was no ordinary evil creature. The oppressive force emanating from it was simply suffocating.

Thick blood gathered like a river, dripping continuously down the mountainside. The scene of bloodshed was no longer just a description, but something everyone witnessed firsthand.

The elder of the Heavenly Book Academy, who was in charge of suppressing the tide, reacted very quickly, directly suppressing the horde with great magical power. The booming spells directly stopped the zombie horde.

The aura of the Divine Realm swept across the area, and the disciples of the Immortal Sect and aristocratic families instantly felt a sense of peace.

Just as they were about to fight their way through the zombie horde, the dozens of people who had previously attracted the horde suddenly burst forth, their auras soaring into the heavens, even causing the elders in the Divine Travel Realm to show expressions of horror.

boom!
A pair of enormous hands, carrying boundless celestial light, crashed down, instantly shattering the right side of the canyon into a pile of corpses.

They had indeed anticipated an ambush, so they hadn't dared to use the spirit stones they carried. However, they never expected the ambush to be so precise and powerful, disrupting all subsequent plans.

Ultimately, the immortal sect members who have been high and mighty for many years are too arrogant, thinking that they are invincible and that everyone else is just an ant.

So even though they realized that the masterminds behind the scenes wouldn't just sit idly by, they didn't take it seriously enough.

Only now have they realized that the strength of the opposing side has far exceeded their expectations.

Then he realized that this was not an enemy that could be guessed with ordinary knowledge; it was a group of opponents who had been secretly seizing immortal destiny for many years.

"Liu Tianhe..."

"Instructor Ge, how have you been?"

Elder Ge was floating in the void, his eyes trembling as he looked at the man who had shattered countless disciples with a flick of his palm.

More than 30 years ago, he taught at the Inner Academy and had many students.

Instructor Ding from the outer academy was one of his students, and one of them had relatively good talent in cultivation.

However, just as there are those with good talent, there are also those with poor talent, and Liu Tianhe is a prime example of that.

The lower three realms are the internal realms, while the upper five realms are the Heavenly Dao realms. The differences between them are vast. Liu Tianhe was extremely clumsy in comprehending the Heavenly Dao. After reaching the Profound Realm, he toiled in the courtyard for five years before finally leaving in despair.

Elder Ge recognized him because he was among the last group of students he taught. After that, he joined the Elders' Pavilion and never taught again.

But now, when they meet again, this foolish student of his has become incredibly powerful.

"You scoundrel!"

"I've been waiting for this day for a long time. Look at my current cultivation level. Am I still that fool you could mock? I've been your slave for years, suffering all kinds of humiliation. Now I'll make you pay with your life!" With a loud shout, Liu Tianhe suddenly stood up and slashed down with a ferocious palm.

As he rode along, his figure suddenly surged with murderous intent, and his bones stretched out with a series of crackling sounds, his sharp claws extending out with a gleaming sound.

Elder Ge was shocked and immediately formed a magic seal to meet the attack head-on.

The heavy force exploded into a ball upon impact. Elder Ge's eyes widened in horror, feeling as if a cliff had crushed his shoulders. As his magic was shattered, he was violently sent flying.

At the same time, the other dozens of people who came because of the zombie horde also instantly transformed into evil beings and fought with the elders of the Heavenly Book Academy.

The chaotic light exploded, and the entire sky was instantly turned a crimson red.

The elders with profound cultivation continuously resisted the corrupted demons, while the other elders annihilated the powerful evil creatures coming from all directions from the rear.

As for the disciples of the Heavenly Academy and those young students, they continued to search for opportunities amidst the zombie horde.

He Lingxiu, Shi Junhao, Chai Ze, and other prodigies were capable enough to fight back, but they were immediately slapped away by five ferocious-looking figures.

The five people, as they leaped into the air, roared and transformed into evil beings, bringing a pressure comparable to that of Yingtian.

Upon seeing this, the three of them couldn't help but clench their fists.

Two of the five figures were people they had seen at a banquet. They thought they had also been to a celestial sect, but they had left the academy without even remembering their names.

The pressure they exerted at that moment caused the three of them to tremble.

At this moment, Ji You was also leading Cao Jingsong and others to continuously kill the evil corpses. The aura around him was getting hotter and hotter, and the soaring sword energy was getting stronger and stronger.

But the Dao Sword, which was previously capable of slaying a whole area, now only managed to shatter a few.

"How did such a powerful evil species suddenly appear?"

"These were also transformed from humans; they probably possessed cultivation in their previous lives."

"?"

Ji You pursued the evil species multiple times, discovering that the types of humanized evil species were not uniform.

Just like the Bu family encountered in the Dongping Mountains, their core members can freely transform between evil corpses and humans. However, Bu Qirong also has several death servants around him who maintain the form of evil beings. Like evil beings, they have no thoughts, but they are much more powerful.

As he had predicted, the vanguard of this manipulated horde of zombies was indeed composed of such evil creatures.

As for the process of mutation, it should be just as Bai Rulong described, the experiences of his uncles and elder brothers.

But these things weren't the most terrifying. Ji You raised his head and looked at the figure fighting with the elder of the Heavenly Book Academy. His expression became serious.

After Chu Xian's incident, the Immortal Sect and the aristocratic families adopted a condescending attitude and used terms like "capture" and "suppression."

Even Ji You, who thought he was taking the situation seriously, suddenly realized that he had underestimated the opponent's strength.

They wanted to suppress the chaos, while the other side wanted to encircle and annihilate the entire country.

With a series of booming sword sounds, Ji You led Cao Jingsong and his group through the zombie horde and reunited with the disciples hiding in the rear.

In this situation, there's no point in acting alone; it's safer to stay with others.

Catching his breath, Ji You crushed a spirit stone to replenish his strength. Then, wielding his longsword, he leaped into the air with a whoosh, his sword aura soaring into the heavens, instantly condensing into a massive sword light...

At the forefront of the Heavenly Academy disciples, He Lingxiu's body shimmered with mysterious light as she fiercely attacked with her Dao Sword, controlling the immortal light. She and Shi Junhao worked together to continuously resist the three figures fighting in front of them.

However, their condition was not good; not only were their breaths rapidly declining, but their clothes were also covered in blood.

As for Shibasaki, who was facing two people alone, it was even more difficult.

Their ability to withstand such a powerful attack for so long is entirely due to their extensive knowledge of various techniques. With these techniques accompanying them, they will not suffer serious injury for a short period of time.

However, as the evil beings in front of them continued to gather thick malevolent energy with their claws and attack, their magical powers began to crumble.

At that moment, Shi Junhao clenched his fist, and a beam of lightning shot out from among the myriad laws surrounding him. The intense lightning, like a sharp sword, slashed down and stopped the poisonous claws that were attacking him.

But before he could catch his breath, he was slashed away by another one, his magic instantly dissipated, and blood spurted from his mouth and nose.

In fact, those around him understood why he was doing this.

If this drags on, they will inevitably suffer a crushing defeat. It would be better to just risk everything and kill one of them.

But when Shi Junhao's blood splattered in the air, the evil seed, which had been killed by the lightning technique, was not seriously injured at all. Only a patch of black ash was burned on its chest. Then it fiercely pounced on He Lingxiu.

Upon seeing this, He Lingxiu's expression changed drastically.

Wang Gaocen, Yu Shiliu, and the others who were constantly slaying evil corpses around him also trembled.

Despite the numerous zombie hordes that had erupted in Qingyun Tianxia, ​​this was the first time these noble scions of aristocratic families had ever faced those evil creatures.

Only now did I understand what the word "powerful" in "the physical strength of the evil species" really meant.

However, just as the poisonous claw descended, He Lingxiu suddenly felt a pain in her shoulder, as if she had been gripped by a large hand, and then she was sent flying backward.

In the instant she fell back, she saw a beam of sword light brush past her, slashing out a blindingly bright light before her eyes.

The powerful sword energy was as heavy as a mountain. As it fell, it created a burst of air in the air, and with a loud bang, it sent the three of them flying.

Ji You arrived with the sword, his feet shattering the ground with a loud thud, the longsword in his hand clanging incessantly.

The three evil beings that had been pressing down on the Heavenly Academy disciples, making it difficult for them to even breathe, were forced back three steps, crashing into a mountain wall. But in just a few breaths, they pounced again, directly attacking Ji You.

Bang!
Before Ji You could draw his sword, one of them used a poisonous claw to lock the blade, while the other two attacked from the left and right, aiming straight for his chest and lower back.

In fact, after leaving Shengjing and going their separate ways, the group rarely saw Ji You.

Coupled with the constant fighting and the urgency of being surrounded, they completely forgot that there was such a person in the Heavenly Academy.

It wasn't until the sword light suddenly repelled the three corrupted individuals that they realized Ji You was still there.

Since he emerged from the sacred land of the ancients, rumors have been circulating in the world, but these people have only ever seen him enter the city amidst a horde of corpses, where swords filled the sky.

It wasn't until that moment, when the sword brushed past them and they had to use their spiritual energy to resist its pressure, that they truly understood how powerful the sword was.

But before they could even breathe a sigh of relief, they saw that Ji You was in danger.

They knew perfectly well just how powerful the five demons who had come with them were, and their joy vanished in an instant.

Just then, everyone suddenly felt a scorching aura rushing towards them.

Ahead, Ji You, surrounded on three sides, was like a raging beast. Suddenly, he picked up the evil seed that was clamping his sword, and his bulging arm was like a fully drawn black iron bow. He grabbed the evil seed and slammed it into the evil seed on his left with a loud bang.

The heavy force, accompanied by a booming sound like muffled thunder, slammed the evil seed that was attacking his chest away.

At the same time, as he delivered that powerful blow, he turned around, and his free hand lashed out, slamming down the hand that was aimed at his lower back.

The evil creature let out a shriek, a large hole caved into its back, and it fell to the ground with a thud.

boom!
boom!
boom!
With his third punch, Ji You smashed the shoulder and face of the evil creature in front of him, and as it went limp, he threw it away violently.

Then, with a bang, he gripped his longsword again and, with a magnificent sword aura, sent the evil creature that had been knocked away earlier flying out of the canyon.

The situation changed so quickly that they had no time to react, and it wasn't until they came to their senses that they realized what had happened.

Someone actually managed to smash this thing to death with their bare fists, something that even lightning magic couldn't harm.

At this moment, the academy suddenly recalled a very distant memory: Ji You had been sent as an envoy to the snowy region and had fought the barbarians hand-to-hand.

Then some people said that his greatest strength was not his swordsmanship, but his physical body.

Before the sword light had faded, Ji You's aura pressed down so hard that the surrounding area trembled.

However, he did not stop. Instead, he hammered the evil creature on the ground again, as if he had a deep hatred for it. His continuous explosive punches smashed the creature's head into the crater in the ground, and its entire body was raised up.

After a long while, Ji You stood up and looked at the disciples of the Heavenly Academy behind him: "The northeast should be the weakest point. Go and try to break through it. After disrupting the zombie horde, retreat to the west. As long as we are not completely surrounded, we still have a chance."

"northeast……?"

"It's the direction we came from."

With a loud shout, Ji You drew his sword and left, his anger still burning.

Damn it, you have a brain but you don't use it, you son of a bitch grabbing my kidney.

Shi Junhao, whose mouth and nose were bleeding, and He Lingxiu, who had narrowly escaped death, both stared blankly at his departing figure. After their initial shock, their eyes became incredibly complicated.

The situation in front of the canyon was smaller in scale and less chaotic than that behind it, but everyone knew that this was where the battle was being decided.

If the Heavenly Book Academy elders who formed a defense fail, then what remains will be a annihilation without any suspense.

What people worry about most often leads to the direction in which the situation develops.

The previous long march had already exhausted these elders, and now, facing the fierce attack, their disadvantage was immediately apparent.

In the blink of an eye, with the fall of the three Boundless Realm elders, the defense formed by these powerful immortal sects was instantly torn open.

Immediately afterwards, they saw a powerful evil creature roaring in, surrounded by overwhelming killing intent, attempting to directly annihilate the entire valley.

Upon witnessing this scene, the two patriarchs of the He and Zuoqiu families rose in shock, grabbed the immortal light, and charged towards the enemy.

They knew in their hearts that if this gap were torn open now, everyone would be scattered and no one would be left with any trace.

Amidst the deafening roar of the sky, the two patriarchs clashed with the evil demon several times, their chests suddenly bursting with blood, yet they still gritted their teeth and persevered.

Just then, another elder fell to his death on the cliff, and another place was captured.

The other two patriarchs of the aristocratic families immediately waved their sleeves and left, summoning their magical weapons to clash fiercely with the attack, but they also appeared to be struggling to hold on.

The battle lines were being torn apart, and there were not many elders left who could make a move. It seemed that the entire battle was about to collapse at any moment.

However, just as a rift was torn open, a burst of intense heat carrying a monstrous sword light suddenly appeared and crashed into it without warning.

With a deafening roar, the evil seed was cleaved open, and the onlookers watched as the sword-wielder was sent flying backward, crashing into and shattering a cliff.

To everyone's astonishment, in just a moment, the figure amidst the rubble rose up again with a whoosh, sword in hand, golden light surging in its eyes.

The front line was filled with white-haired figures, making their black hair, which was dancing wildly in the wind, particularly eye-catching.
