Chapter 198: Heading to the Battlefield (1)
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
The Cangzhou alliance army was extremely fast.
In just a few days, the Azure Continent Immortal City was faintly in sight.
Along the way.
The tragic scene that everyone saw made their hearts sink.
The speed at which the zombie tide spread was faster than everyone imagined. Moreover, the closer they got to the Azure Continent Immortal City, the more terrifying the zombie tide became.
Under Sun Fu’s command, these low-level zombies rode on sailboats and sped across the sea.
The high-level flying zombies rode the dark clouds and wreaked havoc on the islands along the way.
The alliance army of Cang Prefecture had destroyed a group of flying zombies like this along the way, so they had wasted a lot of time.
On the deck of the Spirit Void Battleship.
“Brother Zhou, Brother Zhang, look!” Chen Daoxuan frowned.”
Hearing this.
Zhou Mubai and Zhang Xuanling looked in the direction Chen Daoxuan was pointing.
The huge island where the Azure Continent Immortal City was located was completely surrounded by black zombies.
Countless black corpses surrounded the entire island. This scene made everyone’s scalps go numb.
“In just a few short months, you’ve actually deteriorated to this extent!”
Zhou Mubai, who had been fighting zombies for many years, could not believe what he was seeing.
Regardless of whether it was him or Chen Daoxuan, they all felt a sense of relief.
Fortunately, the true target of the Lotus Flower Island wasn’t Guang ‘an Prefecture, but Cang Prefecture.
Otherwise, the Guang ‘an Prefecture would not be able to withstand such a terrifying force!
This was because with a casual sweep, they had already discovered several dozen Zifu Disciples within the horde.
The weakest of these Zifu Disciples was at the early stage of the Zifu Disciple Realm, and there were even some who were at the late stage of the Zifu Disciple Realm. Even if they were compared to the Sun brothers, their strength was not much different.
In terms of high-end combat strength.
The Cangzhou alliance army had no advantage at all.
The high-level cultivators in Cangzhou were relatively weak. In the entire Cangzhou, there was only one Golden Core cultivator, and he even escaped.
Apart from Ye Wudao, there was no Jindan Stage Daoist Master in the present.
As for the zombies…
Everyone carefully observed and discovered that the enemy actually had 127 Zifu Disciples.
Among them, there were thirteen late-stage Zifu Disciples, twenty-nine mid-stage Zifu Disciples, and the rest were all early-stage Zifu Disciples.
This force had already caused a crushing advantage over the Cangzhou alliance army.
However, on the Cang Prefecture alliance army’s side.
There were only seven people who could reach the late Zifu Disciple level.
Amongst them were Zhou Mubai, Zhang Xuanling, and Daoist Fire Spirit, whose strength was comparable to or even surpassed the late-stage Purple Prefecture Realm.
As for the mid-stage Zifu Disciples, there were quite a few in the alliance army of the Cangzhou region, a total of twenty-seven people.
As for the early Zifu Disciples, they were much fewer, with less than forty people.
In total, the Azure Continent’s alliance army had a total of 71 Zifu Disciples. Even if they included the Zifu Disciples in the Azure Continent’s immortal city, they did not exceed 100 people.
Although this force could surround and kill Golden Cores if they encountered one, it was not a problem.
However, against a total of 127 Zifu Disciples, they were unable to gain any advantage.
The gap between their high-end combat power was the most hopeless.
Compared to the Cang Prefecture alliance army.
The most terrifying thing about the zombie horde was their sheer numbers.
He looked around.
The sea within hundreds of miles was almost filled with zombies.
Some of them took a boat, while others simply broke through the waves in the sea. Their goal was the Azure Continent Immortal City in front of them.
“Be careful! Flying zombies!”
In the spirit ships.
A loud shout rang in everyone’s ears.
Chen Daoxuan recognized the voice of the alliance army commander, Zhou Minghao.
Only to see.
A cloud of dark clouds shrouded their eyes as countless flying zombies pounced towards everyone’s spirit ships.
Everyone had encountered this kind of situation more than once and had a lot of experience.
However, compared to before, there were many more zombies.
“Let me do it!”
Zhang Xuanling shouted coldly.
As soon as he finished speaking.
A ball of ice-blue flames rose from his palm. Then, the ice-blue flames transformed into a blue ice phoenix.
The blue ice phoenix was only as big as Zhang Xuanling’s palm.
But as it flew towards the zombies, it grew bigger and bigger until its wings were several thousand feet wide.
The blue ice phoenix was as fast as a stream of light. Very few cultivators present could react in time.
With Chen Daoxuan’s strong spirit sense, he could naturally “see” the trajectory of the blue ice phoenix.
The moment the two collided.
An extremely cold power exploded from the blue ice phoenix.
In the blink of an eye.
The horde of zombies in front of him was frozen into ice by this extreme cold.
In the sky.
The frozen corpse pieces fell into the zombie tide like a hail.
Pieces of frozen corpses fell onto the surface of the sea, freezing the surrounding seawater and the surging zombie horde.
A region of ice with a radius of tens of thousands of feet was formed on the surface of the sea below.
With this sword, the number of zombies that had been destroyed reached at least hundreds of thousands, which was shocking.
After the attack, Chen Daoxuan saw an ice-blue flying sword enter Zhang Xuanling’s Dantian like a stream of light.
“Good!”
“Good!”
“Good!”
The cultivators in the alliance army cheered, and their morale was greatly boosted.
Zhang Xuanling’s face was slightly pale when he used such a big move, but when he saw the soaring morale of the cultivators, he felt that the magic power consumed was completely worth it.
“Brother Zhang, well done!”
Zhou Mubai smiled.
As the flying zombies that blocked the way were killed by Zhang Xuanling, the Cangzhou coalition army did not encounter any obstacles and flew directly into the defense array of Cangzhou Immortal City.
At this moment.
All the cultivators and mortals shrank into the Azure Continent Immortal City.
The originally spacious Immortal City was now overcrowded after hundreds of millions of people were urgently living in it.
Fortunately, the Ye family was a Golden Core family after all, and they were backed by a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.
Thus, the Ye Clan also had a small grotto-heaven.
Thanks to the existence of this grotto-heaven, hundreds of millions of cultivators and mortals could temporarily hide in it.
Otherwise…
The Azure Continent Immortal City, which could usually only accommodate millions of cultivators, could only accommodate tens of millions of mortals and cultivators at most.
It was impossible to accept hundreds of millions of mortals.
Of course, there was another important reason why the Ye Family saved these mortals, apart from the fact that most of them were from the Ye Family.
That was, he couldn’t increase the zombies ‘strength anymore.
If he were to throw these hundreds of millions of mortals into the zombie horde and turn them into zombies, the zombie tide would be even harder to control.
At that time.
The Azure Continent Immortal City would probably not even have the chance to hold on until the reinforcements arrived before it would be breached by the corpse tide.
Although the strength of each zombie that had just been transformed by the Baleful Yin Qi was not worth mentioning, just a Qi Condensation cultivator could kill dozens or even more.
But a horde of zombies numbering in the hundreds of millions was a power that even Zifu Disciples and Golden Core cultivators would feel fear in.
In any case, with Ye Wudao’s strength, he simply couldn’t handle a zombie tide of this scale.
In reality.
Even with the addition of the Azure Continent Alliance Army, the cultivators of the Azure Continent Immortal City could not handle the corpse tide in front of them.
Everyone’s only hope was that the Qianyuan Sword Sect would come out in time to save them..
