Maoshan World: The young marshal starts!

Chapter 282 Shakes the Capital!

"Boom--!"

Amidst the deafening explosions and thunderous roars.

The entire capital city trembled, as if the sky were collapsing and the earth were splitting apart. Almost everyone could clearly feel the ground shaking beneath their feet.

"What happened? Have the foreign devils invaded Beijing again?"

"What's going on there?!"

"Oh My God"

In the capital city.

Everyone, from high-ranking officials to ordinary citizens, was startled in an instant, and all turned their gaze toward the Manchu forbidden area outside the capital.

When their gaze turned towards the Manchu forbidden area outside the capital, everyone's eyes widened in shock. To their horror, the entire night sky above the Manchu forbidden area was completely illuminated.

In the bright night sky, all that could be seen were various divine lights soaring into the sky, and the forces of corpse energy, blood energy, thunder and other forces constantly intertwining and colliding. The destructive power that erupted could be clearly felt even in the capital city, making people feel as if the end of the world had come.

This is undoubtedly a horrifying scene.

Inside the Forbidden City.

Empress Dowager Longyu was also alarmed. She climbed onto a high platform, took a telescope, and looked into the direction of the battle. She was also unable to calm down.

Unlike most other people who are still completely unaware of the specifics.

As the current ruler of the Qing Dynasty, Empress Dowager Longyu was aware of the situation in the Manchu forbidden area, so she also knew that the current situation was probably that Guan Shaoqing had led his men to attack.

"Your Majesty, the forbidden area has been attacked by the forces led by Guan Shaoqing, the young marshal of Guangdong. The entire forbidden area has now been isolated by Guan Shaoqing's forces using an array. The situation inside is unknown. I wonder if we should provide artillery support? Your Majesty will have to decide."

At this moment, a skilled Manchu imperial guard also came to Empress Dowager Longyu to report.

This expert Manchu imperial guard was originally stationed in the Manchu forbidden area.

However, when Guan Shaoqing and his group from the Three Mountains Talisman Sect attacked, he was not even qualified to participate in a battle at the Golden Core level. Therefore, he and the other guards stationed in the Manchu Forbidden Area, as well as the garrison commander, all retreated to the outer perimeter of the Forbidden Area.

Unexpectedly, just as they retreated to the outer edge of the forbidden area, Guan Shaoqing and his group activated a large formation that covered and enveloped the entire Qing Dynasty forbidden area, leaving them completely unaware of the situation inside or whether they should bombard it for support.

If it's artillery support, what if the shells accidentally hit Aisin Gioro Sheng and the others?

Therefore, this expert of the Manchu Imperial Guards also came to Empress Dowager Longyu to ask her for a decision.

Upon hearing this, a hint of struggle flashed in Empress Dowager Longyu's eyes. Logically speaking, given her current status and position, she should definitely send troops to provide support. However, from the perspective of her conscience, she did not want to send troops to provide support. This was because she had always disapproved of her royal family raising zombies, especially the annual forbidden area sacrifice. Seeing those who were captured and taken into the forbidden area for blood sacrifice caused her great distress.

Just as Empress Dowager Longyu was suffering internally.

"Om-"

Suddenly, a terrifying and overwhelming pressure erupted from the sky.

Immediately afterwards, a Taoist figure with an otherworldly air slowly flew down from the clouds in the night sky.

"who?!"

The Qing officials standing behind and to the left and right of Empress Dowager Longyu were immediately shocked, and they all looked at the Taoist priest who flew down from the sky with wary and fearful eyes.

"I am Ziguang, the current Third Elder of Maoshan, and I greet the Empress Dowager."

The Taoist priest flew down from the sky, looked at Empress Dowager Longyu, and bowed slightly.

"So it was Master Ziguang."

Upon hearing Ziguang's words, Longyu felt a sense of relief and immediately raised her hand to signal the people around her to put away their weapons before looking at Ziguang.

"I wonder what brings Master Ziguang here?"

"I believe Your Majesty is already aware of my purpose. Our Three Mountains Talismans have come to the capital solely to eliminate the zombies, nothing more. I hope Your Majesty will consider the plight of the people and refrain from interfering." "Once we have eliminated the zombies, we will leave. However, if Your Majesty remains obstinate and insists on interfering, then I, being somewhat skilled in martial arts and magic, would not mind killing a few more who aid and abet the evildoers."

Zi Guang looked at Empress Dowager Longyu and said that he and a Golden Core cultivator from Longhu Mountain were assigned to keep an eye on the movements of the capital and the Manchu army and to provide support.

Zi Guang knew that after Guan Shaoqing killed Prince Su, the regent of the Qing Dynasty, the highest authority in the Qing Dynasty was now Empress Dowager Longyu. If the Qing Dynasty were to send out troops, it would inevitably have to go through Empress Dowager Longyu to issue the orders.

So after discussing with the Golden Core cultivator from Longhu Mountain, Master Ziguang came directly to Empress Dowager Longyu. He planned to keep a close eye on her. If Empress Dowager Longyu listened to his advice, then so be it; if she didn't, Ziguang wouldn't be polite.

"How dare you threaten the Empress Dowager! What are you, Maoshan, up to? Are you plotting a rebellion?"

Upon hearing Zi Guang's words, the people around Longyu's left and right changed their expressions and glared angrily at Zi Guang.

"Humph!"

Upon hearing this, Zi Guang simply let out a cold snort.

"I am here to give you a chance. Do not remain stubborn. The Manchu zombies will be destroyed by my Three Mountains Talismans this time. If there are still people who are stubborn, I will not mind killing a few more."

"That's all I have to say, so you can do what you want."

After speaking, Zi Guang ignored Long Yu and the other Manchus and flew back up to the clouds. However, he did not leave. Instead, he calmly watched the movements of Long Yu and the other Manchus below. If they still did not listen to his advice and showed any signs of resistance, he would kill them directly.

Feeling the watchful gaze of the purple light high in the sky, Empress Longyu and the Manchu officials present were all stiff, filled with anger and resentment, but there was nothing they could do.

There isn't even a single expert at the Golden Core level in the Forbidden City now, so no one can threaten Zi Guang. As for mobilizing a large army and cannons, they'd probably be killed by Zi Guang before they could even mobilize them.

"Our Three Mountains Talismans are here solely to exterminate zombies, and have nothing to do with you. The Manchu imperial family is wicked, secretly raising zombies to wreak havoc on the world. I hope you will not remain obstinate, otherwise, if you stand in our way today, you might one day become food for those zombies."

"Do you know what it feels like to be sucked by a zombie? It will bite through your neck and the blood vessels in your neck, and then start sucking your blood. But you won't die immediately. Instead, you will slowly feel your blood and life draining away until you are drained of all your blood and die."

Outside the Manchu forbidden area, another great cultivator from Longhu Mountain, responsible for providing support from the outside, appeared in front of the Manchu forbidden area's guards and slowly spoke.

Upon hearing the words of the great cultivator from Longhu Mountain, the Manchu people present were stirred up, and many of them showed signs of retreat and fear.

indeed.

If the Manchu imperial family really intends to raise zombies, and they aren't eliminated this time, will they emerge and cause harm in the future, threatening their rule?

Although those selected to guard the Manchu forbidden area were basically loyal to the Manchus.

But how many people in the world are not afraid of zombies?

Furthermore, with Aisin-Gioro Sheng caught up in the great battle and Empress Dowager Longyu not issuing any orders, the garrison troops guarding the Manchu forbidden area halted their advance. Coupled with their fear of zombies, the group resolved that they would not move unless ordered to, and would only act according to the situation if given orders.

Thus, with the joint efforts of Ziguang and the Dragon Tiger Golden Core cultivators, the Manchu army in the capital was effectively blocked from interfering in the great battle within the Manchu forbidden area.

Meanwhile, in the forbidden area of ​​the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

The great battle has now reached its climax.

However, the tide of the battle has begun to turn in favor of Guan Shaoqing and his group.

Although the number of zombies on the Manchu side far exceeded that of Guan Shaoqing and his group.

However, Guan Shaoqing's group was not weak in terms of high-end combat power, and even had the advantage. In addition, with the power of the Heavenly Gang Subduing Demon Formation, they suppressed the Manchu zombies completely.

During this time, Aisin-Gioro Sheng wanted to get close and kill Uncle Jiu and the others first, because he knew that most cultivators were fragile and that Uncle Jiu and the others were far less powerful than Guan Shaoqing and Shi Jian. However, he did not expect that Guan Shaoqing and Shi Jian were also watching him.

Since the Prince Zombie and Emperor Zombie they were fighting were already being overwhelmed, they were able to begin to take care of the surrounding battlefield and occasionally look for opportunities to strike.

Moreover, both Guan Shaoqing and Shi Jian possessed ranged attack capabilities, and each of them unleashed several bolts of lightning, nearly killing Aisin Gioro Sheng on the spot.

But even if they weren't killed on the spot.

Aisin-Gioro Sheng was also severely injured by Guan Shaoqing and Shi Jian's combined attack, and his combat power was reduced by more than half on the spot.
