Chapter 151: Fierce Battle with Zombies
Several figures quickly gathered around the zombies, spiritual energy was surging, strong winds were howling, their faces were stern, and heavy breathing sounds came one after another.
"Evacuate quickly and leave the Netherworld!" The elders' shouts resounded like thunder, piercing through the void and commanding all the disciples.
The elders quickly surrounded the zombies, spiritual energy surging around them, and their eyes were fixed on the red figure.
The disciples' hearts went from fear to peace of mind. With the arrival of the elders, the panic gradually subsided and their steps became firmer.
Dozens of elders had their robes fluttering and the wind was howling, forming a solid line of defense that trapped the zombies in the center.
Suddenly, the zombies let out a deafening roar, shocking everyone and causing their faces to change suddenly.
"Hurry up and stop him!" Amid exclamations, seven or eight elders attacked at the same time. Their weapons flashed cold light, and the vast spiritual power was wrapped in a fierce offensive, falling on the zombies like dense raindrops, and explosions occurred one after another.
The zombies refused to give in and roared continuously. The sound penetrated through layers of attacks and echoed throughout the space, making people's heart frightened.
Despite the chaotic scene, everyone's expressions remained tense and they did not dare to slack off in the slightest.
Elder Yin Wuqing's face was solemn. He drew his azure sword and chanted, "Ice the world."
As the words fell, a biting cold air swept out, trying to freeze the battlefield and buy more time for everyone.
The air was filled with tension and solemnity; every second seemed to be stretched infinitely. Everyone knew that this battle was a matter of life and death and that there could be no room for error.
The space trembled, and streams of light filled the air around the zombies. The majestic aura and violent airflow intertwined, and the roar resounded through the sky.
The elders attacked together, and the zombies' roars gradually subsided. However, they did not expect that a stronger sound wave suddenly arose, and a blood shadow broke through the air, shocking the whole audience.
"This... How is it possible!" There were exclamations everywhere, and everyone was dumbfounded. The zombie was completely unharmed.
The blood shadow rushed forward, locked onto a disciple, and the bloody evil spirit raged. It arrived in an instant and hit violently. An elder was caught off guard. His blood and energy surged, and he was thrown into the air and hit the ground heavily, causing the boulders to shatter.
"Retreat quickly!" Shangguan Jiannan was terrified and ran across the square as fast as lightning. His direction was unclear, but he ran towards the place where the crowd was surging.
As he ran, a cold air quietly approached, chilling him to the bone. His face suddenly changed and he sped up his escape, his figure jumping in the light and shadow.
The spiritual energy was surging and the speed was extreme, but the bloody energy was getting thicker and the air was as heavy as lead.
Shangguan Jiannan was secretly anxious: "Not good, the pursuers are coming!" With danger lurking on every side, he had no choice but to try his best to find a glimmer of hope in this chaos.
The Slaying Heaven Sword trembled in his hand continuously, "Stop!" Shangguan Jiannan shouted urgently, the spiritual energy around him surged, and finally the sword's ringing subsided, but the aftershocks were still subtle.
He clenched his teeth, his expression solemn, and decided to give it a try, silently reciting the essence of the unknown sword technique in his mind.
In a flash, a sharp sound cut through the air, and spiritual energy lingered around the body. Shangguan Jiannan turned around, his eyes as sharp as torches, locking onto the approaching bloody figure.
At the same time, the elders and sect elites behind him were panicked and rushed over, fearing that they would be caught up by the zombie. The situation was critical.
"Jiannan, retreat quickly!" The shouts of the Tianjian Sect elders exploded like thunder. Seeing that he did not move but stopped, they were all extremely anxious.
Yin Wuqing, with a stern face, was extremely anxious when he saw this scene.
The zombie was only a few steps away from Shangguan Jiannan. He shouted, "Get out of the way!" Then his body turned into lightning and rushed towards the zombie, eager to save his disciple.
Yin Wuqing is well aware of the importance of Shangguan Jiannan, not only because of his extraordinary talent, but also because he is his only successor.
He increased his speed, turned into an afterimage, and vowed to intercept the zombies.
"Stay!" As Yin Wuqing shouted angrily, cold air emanated from his body. The sword light surged towards the zombie like a tide, followed closely by majestic spiritual energy. The long sword stabbed out even faster, pointing directly at the zombie's back.
However, when the tip of the sword touched the zombie, it only made a crisp sound and failed to advance an inch.
"This..." Yin Wuqing was shocked and looked at the scene in disbelief. The long sword could not penetrate it at all.
The long sword in Yin Wuqing's hand shook violently and almost slipped out of his hand. His full-strength attack was like a drop in the ocean. The zombie showed no reaction and continued to run fast.
He was stunned and couldn't believe the scene.
There was a loud roar, and the surroundings were filled with brilliant light and majestic atmosphere, and all the criticisms were directed at Shangguan Jiannan.
"Get out of the way!" Yin Wuqing screamed anxiously, his voice shaking the whole area. He realized that the power of the zombies was extraordinary. If Shangguan Jiannan confronted them head-on, he would probably not be able to escape.
However, Shangguan Jiannan stood there, as calm as still water, and turned a deaf ear to the noise from the outside world.
He closed his eyes and concentrated, with surging spiritual energy surrounding him. The essence of the swordsmanship of the Lord of the Slaying Heaven Sword gradually became clear in his mind, and the heat and profound mystery of the Slaying Heaven Sword slowly unfolded in his heart.
He was well aware of the power of the sword, but had only scratched the surface. He was even more amazed at the understanding of the Lord of the Slaying Heaven Sword, imagining the shocking effect it would have when it was fully unleashed.
At this critical moment, the zombies locked onto Shangguan Jiannan, and an aura of terror filled the air.
Shangguan Jiannan suddenly opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashed across his eyes, and then he stepped on the ground. His spiritual energy exploded like a tornado, and smoke and dust rose up, accompanied by a deafening roar. His figure was as fast as lightning, and the Sky-Slaying Sword broke through the air, pointing straight at the sky. With one swing of the sword, it seemed to tear apart the space.
"Come on!" He growled, fearlessly fighting with his sword, vowing to start this life-and-death battle.
The zombie suddenly raised his right arm, clenched it into a fist, bent his arm slightly, and then punched out with a loud "boom". The air around him seemed to collapse, shaking the earth.
Shangguan Jiannan reacted quickly, his long sword was unsheathed in an instant, and the Sky-Slaying Sword was waving in a manner that made it difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake, with a sharp sound of breaking wind echoing in the space.
He turned his wrist slightly, and the long sword drew a perfect arc in the air, with the tip of the sword pointing directly at the zombie, and the red sword light shot out like a raging flame.
Under the dual impact of the sword light and fist wind, the zombie's body trembled violently and the air around it was distorted.
With a deafening "bang", the two sides faced off head-on. The air seemed to freeze and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
However, the expected devastating collision did not occur, and the two sides fell into a brief stalemate.
This delicate balance was fleeting, and the zombie suddenly lost control and flew out in mid-air.
Shangguan Jiannan was delighted upon seeing this, and he stretched out his body and rushed towards the zombie like an arrow.
This scene left the elders of various sects who were watching the battle from afar dumbfounded, their faces filled with disbelief.
There was a sharp roar, and the zombie was enveloped in a blood-red light. It fell from the sky and rolled over in a panic.
Shangguan Jiannan was delighted when he saw this. He pushed his feet hard and rushed out like lightning. Surging spiritual energy surrounded him, changing rapidly in an instant.
The elders who were watching the battle from a distance looked at each other in shock, and exclaimed in amazement at the red figure rushing towards them.
The red light streaked across the sky, leaving behind stunning trails that caused bursts of exclamations from the crowd.
The long sword in Shangguan Jiannan's hand was flying, and the red sword light was like a bright meteor, waving freely, dyeing the surrounding space brilliantly.
