Chapter 177 Fight
"How can a spirit born from heaven and earth have a human body?" Zhou Yuan frowned and stared at "Pang Yun" in disbelief.
The appearance of "Pang Yun" can be said to have touched upon the blind spots of many people's knowledge - logically speaking, "spirits" are a species different from humans, blessed by heaven, and able to cultivate a natural path, but their numbers are scarce and the conditions for their birth are harsh. Even those "spirits" of the Wenxian Sect coexist in the form of cooperation.
"Is this a spirit?" Lu Wensheng smacked his lips - it was completely two different species from the one he remembered seeing.
The ball of light in the bell that helped the disciples keep score was a spirit. Although it had intelligence, it could not speak and was difficult to communicate with. It was nothing like this - looking at the situation, it seemed as if the City God Pang Yun had really appeared.
Different species? That's too different - Lu Wensheng looked at "Pang Yun" and felt that he actually had some of the majesty of a god.
Seeing the "City God" appear, the people wept bitterly and knelt on the ground to express their gratitude, finally feeling relieved - they had been able to sense the movements below from their position on the mountain before, and there were occasional loud noises that sounded like divine punishment, but their mortal eyes could not see the real situation, and they were anxious but there was nothing they could do.
Taoist Qingxuan, who was also anxiously chanting scriptures, suddenly called them together and said that there was a way, but he wanted their help and they must be sincere when burning incense.
So, with the thought that at worst they would all die, the common people went to collect incense, led by respected people, followed by women, children and the like, with the incense leading the way - they wanted to use the faith of the masses to ask the City God to exorcise the evil spirits.
They have suffered too much, they just want to survive - the immortal masters are in high positions, the evil demons are invading, in this world, not to mention the common people, even the high-ranking officials cannot guarantee their own lives.
They, a group of ordinary people, have endured the hardships against the evil cultivators until now, but they are not without the ability. Although they cannot resist the methods of the evil cultivators, they are unwilling to become sacrifices.
Now, whether it is the immortal masters or the gods, they want to contribute, and they will not die in a daze - at worst, without protection, they will fight with them! Most of the puppet city has been destroyed, and their homeland is about to be lost, what else do they have to choose? ! Those weirdos can be killed even with hoes and sickles! Even if I die, I will take a few with me!
With the disaster in front of them, these obedient people burst out with amazing momentum. As they burned incense, the anger in their chests became more and more intense - even if the City God did not show up, they would still risk their lives!
The so-called resignation to fate is a confirmed despair, while if things are in the hands of man, there is still a glimmer of hope for survival.
“Retribution will come after retribution, be it delayed or quick, there will be retribution in the end; heaven knows, earth knows, people know, ghosts know, so what is ignorance?”
"Pang Yun" raised his hand slightly, and the looming golden barrier completely appeared, as solid as a rock. Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Zhou Yuan was surprised that this "spirit" was a bit strange, he just sneered when he heard "Pang Yun"'s words.
"A 'spirit' who is only at the Nascent Soul stage really thinks he is a god. Today I will take you as a reward! What retribution from heaven and earth? Since I have chosen this path, I do not believe in retribution!"
"You are very calculating, using the people of Puppet City as sacrifices, gaining and losing every time, but you didn't know that everything was wrong, but I was vague about it, I just remembered how many items there were, and I never made any mistakes when settling accounts.
"Thinking of the thousands of treacherous schemes you have made in the past, which one was not your own doing? Come to me and I will avenge you if you have any injustice! Look at how many vicious people there are today, how many of them can escape from here!"
"Pang Yun" snorted coldly, and his aura was frightening. There was anger in his eyes, and the corpse ghosts suddenly became restless. Zhou Yuan felt that these corpse ghosts seemed to be a little out of control, so he hurriedly blew the flute to control them.
He felt that this "spirit" was quite good at putting on airs. This person's cultivation level of Jindan Perfection was not much different from his, yet he dared to speak so arrogantly? !
However, this "spirit" faintly suppressed the evil creature, so Zhou Yuan used a big move to summon the evil spirit entrenched in the formation, vowing to trap "Pang Yun" to death in the formation - this different "spirit" is a great treasure! If he captures it, his status in the Xuanyin Sect will be further improved.
"Pang Yun" looked at the ball of evil energy floating towards him without fear, and turned into golden light to meet it.
Lu Wensheng and the others looked at the golden light and black clouds intertwined above their heads, but there was nothing they could do. They could only take up their weapons and leave the golden barrier to kill the zombies and reduce the pressure on "Pang Yun".
"Dirty beast!"
"You stupid bastards! We're going to fight you monsters!"
What shocked everyone was that the people who had been burning incense and praying to God in front of them actually rushed out of the safe golden barrier and picked up weapons - those were the farm tools they brought with them to protect themselves when they fled to the mountains.
Taoist Qingxuan was the first to take the lead.
Although some people think that these mortals coming here will cause trouble, it is undeniable that there is strength in numbers and the pressure on each person is reduced a lot.
Those common people fought without any rules, just out of rage. In the past, they would run away when they saw corpse ghosts, but now they hit them fiercely, and a corpse ghost's head could be hit several times - a random punch could kill a master, let alone a corpse ghost with increased speed and fragile body?
These people who came down gathered together in groups and protected themselves tightly. Since the current cultivators could not replenish their spiritual power, most of them had to rely on their physical strength. In comparison, their speed was faster than some cultivators, which attracted the attention of some self-proclaimed cultivators.
Tang He: "They..." He paused, speechless for a moment.
Duan Jiashu cut off the head of a corpse ghost with his backhand and couldn't help looking back: "Is this really a mortal?" Is it the mortal who used to be submissive, humble, and seemed to live only by relying on the monks? He looked braver than them.
Even the insignificant people, a bunch of grass, can still shake a tree - the safety of Puppet City is not only the responsibility of these cultivators, but also their hometown that they are connected to by nature, the place they are willing to protect even if it means their death.
These monks could not protect Kui City and could just walk away, but they could not. Their roots were here for generations, and their families were here. They were angry because they were unwilling to give up, and their burning desire was to protect their homeland.
There seem to be few heroes in the world, but all living beings have passion. Little people are never passive recipients of the instigation of a few people. Their participation and actions can also merge into a great torrent.
Zhou Yuan, who was fighting against "Pang Yun", was not doing well. One of his arms was cut off and his fighting power was greatly reduced. However, his opponent seemed unaffected by the evil spirit and fought back and forth with it, and fought back fiercely as if he were an enemy.
Is he trying to avenge the people of Puppet City? Do you really think you are the City God? Have you ever received incense from the people? You are just a guy who is acting as a substitute. How can you get such incense? You are not the real one.
Zhou Yuan mocked and was puzzled - it was not easy for this "spirit" to cultivate, so why would he fight desperately with it for a bunch of ants that didn't even know its true identity?
(Retribution comes from the underworld and the living world, some come slowly and some come quickly, but there will be retribution in the end; heaven knows, earth knows, people know, ghosts know, so what is ignorance? The bad retribution for doing evil may come from the underworld and some from the living world, some come slowly and some come quickly, but there will be retribution in the end; heaven knows, earth knows, people know, ghosts know, so how can you say that no one knows (the bad things you have done)?)
(Impeccable: a metaphor for a defense that is tight and impregnable.)
