Chapter 54: Ghost Invasion
Soon it was completely dark and the ghostly aura became even stronger.

The temperature around was dropping sharply, and even the numerous braziers, torches, and even bonfires could not drive away the eerie chill.

"Kaka——"

From the distant darkness, there came the sound of hard objects rubbing against each other, and soon one after another, skeletons with gray bones and mechanical staggering appeared.

Some were intact, some were missing a few ribs, some were missing an arm, some were missing half of the lower jaw, and they were holding other ribs or leg bones in their hands. There was a faint green light coming out of their skulls and overflowing through their eye sockets...

They appear in groups, one here and one there, continuously.

Soon the number exceeded hundreds and thousands, and they kept coming.

It was as if all the people who had died in the past, those who had turned into bones, now all crawled up and turned into skeleton soldiers, holding other bones in their hands.

"Whoosh-"

Wang Yuan jumped onto the roof and watched the scene from afar, feeling a chill.

The underworld is a den of ghosts underground that controls the bodies of the dead and the spirits of the dead to attack the ground and bring forth living beings.

Then it continues to transform and then erode the surface world.

The more people die, the stronger the underworld becomes.

These skeleton soldiers are only the weakest. Their combat power is probably the same as that of ordinary people, or even weaker. However, there are too many of them, and they look terrifying and breathtaking.

Of course, there is no shortage of powerful and terrifying ghosts in the underworld.

These powerful ghosts all have one characteristic: they are almost immortal under the sinister aura.

That's the scariest thing.

"Whizzing--"

A series of black shadows jumped out from behind the skeleton soldiers at an extremely fast speed. In the blink of an eye, they arrived in front of the earth wall, leaped over it easily, and then continued to rush forward.

They were animals that used to live in mass graves, such as wild dogs, wild cats, gray wolves, etc.

But at this time they were all dark and lifeless, and many of them were even half-rotten, with large chunks of skin and flesh missing.

But he remained ferocious, baring his teeth and rushing viciously towards the people who were defending behind the earth wall.

"Lance Team, kill!"

The colonel in front gave the order.

"Chi chi chi——"

In an instant, the soldier standing in the front thrust out the more than three-meter-long spear in his hand.

Some of them pierced into the body of the Yin corpse, and some missed the target.

And at this time...

"Whoosh whoosh—"

The warriors from the three major forces around the soldiers and the warriors who came to support from Yuanwu City quickly took up their swords and stepped forward to defend or chop at the stabbed Yin corpses, aiming for their heads.

Because only when their heads are chopped off and destroyed will these corpses completely lose their combat effectiveness.

Otherwise, it might recover after absorbing the Yin energy soon.

"Puff puff--"

Some of the Yin corpses had their heads chopped off directly, some only had their skin broken, and some dodged.

The warrior behind rushed forward again, also holding a spear.

Several lines of defense, two groups of coordination.

The effect was remarkable and a great number of kills were achieved.

"Whoosh whoosh—"

The corpses behind pounced again, and at the same time, the skeleton soldiers also started to run and charge.

Although the skeleton soldiers look clumsy, they are actually quite flexible and can easily climb over a meter-high earth wall.

"retreat!"

The school officer suddenly gave the order.

"Whoosh whoosh—"

The soldiers and warriors in front quickly retreated after hearing this.

"Archer, shoot!"

The school officer waved his hand.

"Shhhhh-"

"Puff puff--"

The rockets that had been prepared in the rear poured out one after another, many of which accurately hit the ghosts in the underworld.

Or a corpse, or a skull...

It didn't hit the target and fell to the ground. The kerosene bag inside exploded and the flames spread all at once, enveloping Yin Gui and burning him fiercely.

"Puff puff--"

There was a pungent, unpleasant smell in the air, and the stench of corpses could be heard from far away.

Wang Yuan could smell it clearly from hundreds of meters away.

"kill!"

"kill!"

"Kill!" The battle continued. Several groups of forces, under the command of military officers, engaged in fierce battles with the ghosts in the underworld.

They have good coordination and are well-trained, and it seems like they have been working together for quite some time.

The battle situation here is actually not bad, and no overly powerful ghosts have appeared.

The strongest one is probably equivalent to an eighth-grade human warrior.

But the situation is different in the southwest section, near Linyu Yuluo.

That is the focus of attack by ghosts from the underworld, and every time the important force is concentrated there.

Zheng Yuchan, the leader of the Yandao Sect, was personally in charge, sitting cross-legged on a huge jade leaf of the Linyu Yuluo. His face was calm and he stood still. A bright white light emanated from his whole body, resisting and even dispelling the evil aura around him.

Below and around them were the elite members of the Yandao Sect, as well as the red- and white-clad members of the Dahe Gang, their leader Song Lian, disciples of the Qingyao Hall of the Jinta Society, as well as strong refugees and masters who came to support from Yuanwu City.

The overall strength is very strong, far exceeding the last beast tide.

"Ugh~~Hoo~~~"

A sharp, fierce dog barking sounded, and then...

"Shh-"

A huge black shadow appeared, surrounded by countless sinister auras, exuding a terrifying aura. The black fog around it was moved, and a dog-shaped outline could be vaguely seen inside.

It’s the Corpse Dog King!

That’s right, it was the ghostly corpse that seriously injured Guo Shan, the vice president of the Jinta Society.

Because the distance was over a hundred meters, Wang Yuan had no way of knowing his specific combat power, but from the reactions of the people at the scene he knew that he must be very strong.

Many masters who were originally calm and composed couldn't help but change their expressions the moment the Corpse Dog King appeared.

"Brother Yuchi, I'll leave it to you."

Zheng Yuchan lowered his head and spoke to a handsome young man wearing fish scale armor below.

"Okay, leave it to me!"

The heroic young man Yuchi Heng walked out, greeted the Corpse Dog King, and slowly extended a hand.

"Bam—"

A large ball of red flame appeared and burned fiercely.

Then his figure flashed and he quickly appeared in front of the Corpse Dog King, and he pressed his palm hard towards the Corpse Dog King's head.

"Roar~~"

The Corpse Dog King roared, black energy rising from his body, and he bravely faced the red and yellow flames without any fear.

Or to be more precise, it crashed into and bit Yuchi Heng's body.

The latter will give it a big head.

"Bam—"

Flames and some black gas exploded at the same time.

Sparks and black air were flying everywhere, and the force was shaking in waves.

"Whoosh-"

Yuchi Heng's body flew backwards.

The Corpse Dog King couldn't help but pause.

"Shuashuashua——"

Yuchi Heng's body flashed and he attacked the Corpse Dog King again, with the flames between his palms becoming even stronger.

"Roar--"

The black energy on the Corpse Dog King surged, and then slowly condensed, forming a pitch-black energy ball in the dog's mouth...

While the two sides were fighting, the fighting did not stop in other places.

There are corpse dogs, corpse pigs, corpse wolves, etc., as well as countless skeleton soldiers.

In addition...

"Shh-"

Zheng Yuchan stood up from the giant leaf of Linyu Yuluo and looked towards a certain place in the void.

Three black shadows over there slowly condensed, seemingly unreal and illusory, formed by the condensation of energy.

A face like human skin, slowly stretching, with obvious corners on both sides of the forehead, forming a strange triangle, but as big as three or four people.

A thin, human-shaped figure, like the Black Impermanence.

Another one is completely in the shape of a minotaur.

These are the three evil ghosts that escaped from the underworld this time.

Each of them has combat power that exceeds that of a normal seventh-grade human warrior. They can fly into the sky and into the ground, and transform into many different forms. What's more terrifying is that they are immortal under the sinister aura. No matter how many times they are killed or how they are killed, they can recover as before after a few breaths.

Extremely weird and terrifying.

If it weren’t for Zheng Yuchan, countless masters would have been killed on the river beach.
