After a few days, Uncle Jiu had lost weight visibly. The frequent use of magic power and running around had consumed him greatly.
After all, there are still too few cultivators in this world.
But fortunately, thanks to the efforts of monks from various schools and sects, it was finally maintained.
However, with the emergence of the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons, all this was completely disrupted, and the order that had been maintained with great difficulty was completely disrupted.
The wronged souls and evil spirits that appeared out of nowhere are wreaking havoc in the human world. Most of these ghosts are evil spirits and have extremely terrifying evil spirits condensed in their bodies.
Ordinary Taoists simply cannot subdue it, and even some weaker disciples will die in vain if they encounter it.
As a result, the entire world was disturbed by evil spirits and evil creatures, and the people were living in misery.
"How could this happen? What on earth happened?"
Uncle Jiu sat dejectedly in the charity cemetery. He was exhausted from subduing demons and monsters everywhere during this period.
"Master, please have some tea and take a rest!"
Qiu Sheng diligently brought a bowl of cold tea. He and Wencai had been very busy during this period, but at the same time, under the high-intensity pressure, their strength was also improving by leaps and bounds.
"Has your uncle not come back yet?"
Uncle Jiu glanced at the charity cemetery. The world was in chaos, and Fade Chen had no mood to continue studying. He used his ability to fly to provide support between various towns.
During this period, the number of evil spirits and various evil creatures that died at Chen Fei's hands was more than that of Uncle Jiu and his men combined.
"I am back!"
A familiar voice sounded from above everyone's heads, and then Fade Chen's body slowly descended, his face showing an undisguised look of fatigue.
He hadn't rested for three consecutive days, and even with his strength, he felt a little overwhelmed.
"Junior brother, please sit down and take a rest!"
Uncle Jiu pulled over a stool and motioned for Fade Chen to sit down and rest for a while.
As soon as he saw the other person's tired look, Uncle Jiu knew that Chen Fei had consumed a lot of energy during this period.
"Brother, there's no time to rest. I heard some news outside about the cause of this great chaos in the world."
"It is said that the reason for this strange phenomenon is that the Blood God Cult found a corpse king from three thousand years ago. They awakened it, and now no grass grows wherever the corpse king passes."
"As for the Blood God Cult's headquarters in Nanyang, nine out of ten houses are empty, and the civilians have suffered heavy casualties."
Chen Fei's words were like a thunderclap, frightening Uncle Jiu so much that he suddenly stood up from his stool. "What? A corpse king from three thousand years ago? The people of the Blood God Cult are crazy. How dare they do this!"
The Corpse King is already terrifying enough, let alone the one who became the Corpse King three thousand years ago. God knows how terrifying his power is.
How could the practitioners in this Dharma-Ending Age resist such an existence?
"I think it's correct. This news was spread by a cultivator in Nanyang. His entire sect was slaughtered, and he was the only one who escaped with his life."
"He immediately rushed back to the country and informed all the major sects of the news. Now, they have begun discussing how to deal with the Millennium Corpse King."
"Let's get ready and set off quickly!"
Chen Fei looked solemn. If it was really a corpse king-level existence, then he had no confidence this time.
As expected, as Fade Chen finished speaking, a small Bagua mirror on his and Uncle Jiu's waists began to vibrate. That was Maoshan's signal to call its disciples.
"Qiu Sheng Wencai, get ready to pack up and leave!"
Uncle Jiu did not delay. After a while, the four of them packed their bags and set off for Maoshan again.
The four of them did not stop along the way, and in just two days, they successfully arrived at the foot of Mount Mao.
But this time, the entire Maoshan was filled with practitioners from various sects and schools. These people had obviously gathered here after receiving the news.
Coincidentally, the cultivator from Nanyang was acquainted with Shi Jian of Maoshan. The first thing he did after fleeing to the country was to go to Maoshan, so this time all the major sects chose to gather in Maoshan to discuss this matter together.
In the Maoshan Hall, people wearing Taoist robes of various colors were sitting in the hall. Most of these people had white hair and beards, which made them look extremely extraordinary with the Taoist robes.
Not only Taoists, but even some Buddhist monks came. Obviously, the news about the Corpse King that was spread this time concerned the safety of the entire cultivation world and even the human world, and everyone could not sit idly by.
"Humph!"
The moment he saw Chen Fei, Uncle Jiu and the others, Shi Jian, who was sitting at the top, snorted coldly, his eyes full of anger.
As for Shi Shaojian, who was standing behind Shi Jian, he stared at Chen Fei intently, with cold murderous intent in his eyes. If it weren't for the wrong occasion, Shi Shaojian would have fought to the death.
Chen Fei and Uncle Jiu found a seat and sat down. Taoist Simu and Taoist Qianhe had already arrived. Even Zhe Gu had put down the group of spiritual children she was offering and rushed back to Maoshan.
Taoist Qianhe was in a very bad condition, his aura was extremely weak, and it was obvious that he had suffered serious injuries.
Several people chatted quietly while waiting for the arrival of participants.
They waited for half a day, until the sun set in the evening. Bright lamps were lit in the hall, illuminating the figures of hundreds of high-level Taoist priests and monks. Shi Jian then slowly spoke: "Everyone, it's almost time. All fellow Taoists should have gathered."
"Why are we here today? I'm sure everyone has heard some rumors!"
"Yes, this news is true. The corpse king from three thousand years ago has indeed appeared, and is still slaughtering humans and sucking their blood to restore his strength."
"My good friend fled back from Nanyang. According to him, nine out of ten houses in Nanyang are now empty!"
Although they had heard about it before, everyone's faces still changed drastically when Shi Jian said the news in person.
"The Blood God Cult deserves to die!"
The headmaster of the Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion had a gloomy expression on his face and couldn't help cursing angrily.
"Amitabha, sin, sin, sin!"
The abbot of Mount Wutai chanted the Buddha's name in a low voice, his eyes full of compassion for the world.
Chapter 124 Bait, heading to Nanyang
"My dear fellow Daoists, my friend has died from his injuries after escaping from Southeast Asia."
"But before he died, he revealed important information: the Corpse King was not in its complete state."
"After being sealed for three thousand years, the Corpse King's strength has seriously declined. The reason why he is now sucking human blood everywhere is to restore his strength through blood."
"However, there are very few people practicing cultivation in the world these days, and ordinary human blood has little effect on restoring his strength. Therefore, even after absorbing so much human blood, his strength still cannot be restored to its full state."
"I've gathered all of you here today to discuss how to kill the Millennium Corpse King!"
The purpose of the alliance held by various factions today is to discuss how to kill the thousand-year-old corpse king.
"Fellow Daoist, the world is now in the Dharma Ending Age. Even if the Millennium Corpse King has not yet recovered its strength, I'm afraid we cannot defeat him."
Someone in the crowd spoke with a worried look on his face.
"So what? Even if we know we can't win, we still have to give it our all. Otherwise, if we keep delaying, and wait until his strength as a corpse king fully recovers, won't we have even less chance of winning?"
"Yes, fellow Daoist is right!"
For a moment, everyone in the hall was talking about it, but the vast majority of people agreed to jointly defeat the Millennium Corpse King.
In this way, the tone of the matter has been set, and dealing with the Millennium Corpse King is a foregone conclusion.
After all, no egg will be left unbroken when the nest is overturned. If we really wait until the Corpse King's strength is fully recovered, then everyone will no longer have any chance of winning.
Due to the urgency of time, the Corpse King's strength would recover by one point with every delay, so there was no long speech at this meeting.
After discussion among the leaders of the major sects, they jointly decided to set the battle location in the coastal area bordering Nanyang.
The so-called Nanyang is not a single country, but is composed of many countries. It is located in the southeast of Asia and includes a series of islands such as the Malay Archipelago, the Philippine Archipelago, and the Indonesian Archipelago.
After the discussion, the Taoist and Buddhist sects left one-third of their manpower in the country to kill as many evil spirits and demons as possible.
The remaining two-thirds of the personnel went to the coastal areas.
If everyone fails this time, then the destruction of the world will only be a matter of time.
The group came down from Mount Mao and headed towards the coastal area in a mighty procession. This trip was too conspicuous and attracted the inquiries of many forces along the way.
When they learned that these people included the heads and abbots of major Taoist and Buddhist sects, they instantly became extremely solemn.
The fact that so many influential people could gather together, coupled with the news of evil spirits killing people and causing chaos from all over the country during this period, it is obvious that great changes have taken place between heaven and earth.
In the end, the major warlords tacitly sent out their soldiers. Wherever these ascetics passed, the major forces sent vehicles and soldiers to escort them.
In the face of justice, these people who are usually busy fighting for power and profit can clearly distinguish what is important.
Seven days later, the endless seaside!
Everyone arrived here three days ago. During these three days, they used all their means and resources to carve a huge formation.
This formation can greatly weaken the power of evil creatures, which is extremely important for them to defeat the Millennium Corpse King.
"Everyone, now that the formation is complete, I have waited for the time to fight to the death with the Corpse King."
"What we need to do now is to lure the Corpse King over here!"
As soon as this was said, the scene fell into silence.
Everyone knew that going to attract the Corpse King would mean a life-or-death situation, or even a zero-odds chance of survival.
"How come everyone has turned into quails, not even daring to speak."
"It's just a bait. If it dies, it dies. So what?"
"Anyway, if the Millennium Corpse King truly recovers, we'll all be dead. So, why not make our death more meaningful?"
"If you are all afraid of death, then this matter will be handled by my Tianshi Mansion!"
The current Heavenly Master of the Heavenly Master Mansion looked around and sneered.
"Fellow Daoist, there's no need to be like this. We've already made up our minds to die. So why should we be afraid?"
"How about this, each family sends some people to attract the Millennium Corpse King's attention, and the rest of you will stay here to control the formation."
Shi Jian's proposal was supported by everyone, and all the major sects selected people to go to Southeast Asia as bait.
If you want to be a bait, your strength cannot be too weak or too strong.
If they are too weak, they will be killed instantly when they appear in front of the Corpse King. However, if all the strong ones are sent out and they are all defeated, there will be no one to control this great formation.
Shi Jian's gaze roamed among the people in Maoshan, and finally looked straight at Chen Fei and the other three in the crowd.
"Junior Brother Yimei, Junior Brother, how about you become the representatives of my Maoshan Sect?"
Looking at the malicious smile on Shi Jian's face, Fade Chen couldn't help but smile coldly, while Simu, Qianhe and others were all worried.
Sure enough, this old guy was ready to show his true colors. This trip was extremely dangerous, and he would most likely be killed on the spot by the Corpse King.
But they couldn't find any reason to refute it. Since everyone else was going, there was no reason why Chen Fei and his friends couldn't go.
"Since Senior Brother said so, why not let Junior Brother and I go there?"
Uncle Jiu and Fade Chen looked at each other, and finally Uncle Jiu took a deep breath, stood up, and agreed to Shi Jian's request.
"Qiu Sheng Wencai, you stay here and remember, try to survive as long as possible!"
Uncle Jiu left Qiu Sheng and Wencai behind. They were still young, and Uncle Jiu didn't want them to do such a dangerous thing.
If he could really use this formation to kill the thousand-year-old corpse king, that would be great. At least he could leave behind a successor. But if he couldn't kill the corpse king even with the help of this formation, then there was no point in talking about it.
The ending is the same anyway, death is death whether early or late, no matter how many conspiracies and tricks there are, they are useless.
"Master, Uncle Master, you must be careful!"
Qiu Sheng and Wencai's eyes were filled with reluctance. At this moment, they hated themselves so much. If they practiced harder, perhaps they could go to Southeast Asia with their master and others.
Even if I can't pose a threat to the Corpse King, I can at least help my master in times of danger, even if I have to die for them.
Looking at Qiu Sheng and Wencai who stayed behind, Shi Jian just glanced at them and paid no more attention.
They are just two rookies in the early stage of Qi Refining. So what if they stay? If they can survive this battle, I will have plenty of ways to deal with them in the future.
Soon, all the major sects selected candidates to go to Southeast Asia, a total of twenty people, whose cultivation levels were basically between the fourth and sixth levels of Qi Refining, and they were already the backbone of Taoism.
These twenty people will do their best to lure the Thousand-Year Corpse King here. Perhaps they will all die here, but as long as they can make the Thousand-Year Corpse King set foot in this formation, their mission will be accomplished.
Chapter 125 Landing on the Island
The salty and fishy sea breeze blew in his face, carrying a foul smell. Chen Fei stood on the deck, looking at the island in front of him where no life had been found, his eyes full of contemplation.
This is an island in the Nanyang region with a population of tens of thousands. It is considered a small coastal country. Chen Fei and his party sailed for five hours and finally arrived at the island.
The headquarters of the Blood God Cult is on this small island, and the Millennium Corpse King, who escaped from his captivity, now lives here.
"finally reached!"
