Chapter 125 Border News, Fengjing on the Mountain of Corpses

The multi-story ship sailed down the river.

For seven consecutive days.

They only stopped to eat in one of the riverside towns along the way, and continued on their journey without stopping.

After passing between several towering peaks, one could see the silhouette of a colossal creature lying on the ground on the distant horizon.

The colossal object was surrounded by rivers and streams that connected to distant waterways, with boats of varying sizes passing by on the water.

"senior."

"Good news has come from the border."

"The True Essence Realm demon who was visiting Mangniu Ridge has made his move again."

"The Great Wall along the hundred-mile border of Qingzhou Prefecture has collapsed once again."

"This time, a large number of demons have once again entered the mansion."

"Everywhere in Qingzhou Prefecture is asking the capital for help, but most of us above are planning to abandon Qingzhou Prefecture."

"We've only posted some notices requesting assistance in various prefectures. Although we can gather some martial artists from each prefecture, the number will definitely not be large."

"The old guys in those top-tier sects within the Chu Kingdom are all shrewd and cunning. Even if the Chu royal family has given them orders to rush to the aid, it will definitely take quite some time for them to get involved."

"Once the decision is made, the situation in Qingzhou Prefecture will definitely not be too optimistic."

"It's just a pity for the common people in Qingzhou Prefecture."

At this time.

Li Yumei walked in excitedly from Lin Zhou's cabin.

The situation in Qingzhou Prefecture was indeed terrible.

Even within the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect, so many of their alchemists had been reassigned; one can only imagine the situation for other sects, gangs, and forces.

It was only with great difficulty that the situation within Qingzhou Prefecture and the area where the Great Wall was located were barely suppressed.

This has happened again, without any external support.

It would be difficult to maintain the situation relying solely on the local martial arts forces of Qingzhou Prefecture.

Especially in Qingzhou Prefecture, the counties and towns below it will definitely suffer many human casualties.

immediately.

Lin Zhou got up and walked out of the cabin. For the past few days, the level one entries he had signed in had been useless and were just gathering dust, which made Lin Zhou quite disappointed.

A large number of people had already gathered on the deck of the ship. Many of them were visiting Fengjing City for the first time and were amazed by the sight of a savage beast lying on the horizon on the distant plain.

"What is that!?"

"Something seems to be flying over Fengjing City. Is that the sun!?"

"No, the sun is in the west and it's about to set."

"Could it be some kind of magical treasure!?"

at this time.

At that moment, the crowd on the deck suddenly began to stir, and everyone looked toward the distant horizon in the direction of Fengjing City.

A bright red sun-like ball of light came into view, rushing from the direction of Fengjing City. It traveled from hundreds of feet in the sky at an astonishing speed, covering dozens of miles in just a few breaths, and arrived above their ship.

After being blessed by the "breath-swallowing for longevity" attribute.

Lin Zhou could sense two extremely powerful spiritual energies within that dazzling red sun, at least a hundred times stronger than the罡劲 (gang jin).

For an instant.

The red light disappeared above their heads, heading towards the setting sun in the west.

From a distance, it looked as if two red suns were hanging in the western sky.

True Essence Realm Martial Artist!

Another source of spiritual energy doesn't seem to be from the human race; it could very well be some kind of magical treasure.

Could this direction be heading straight for Qingzhou Prefecture?!

A thoughtful look appeared in Lin Zhou's eyes.

"Is that a True Yuan Realm martial artist from Fengjing inside that red light?!"

"Only a martial artist at the True Essence Realm could probably cause such a commotion; they're truly a god among men!"

"Is this direction... heading towards the aid of Qingzhou Prefecture?"

"But when did Qingzhou Prefecture become so highly regarded by the nobles in Fengjing City?"

"Don't talk nonsense, bro!"

"Qingzhou Prefecture is one of the eighteen prefectures within the Chu Kingdom, and it is also the first border pass between the Chu Kingdom and the demons. How can it not be valued?"

"If someone hears this and reports it to the higher-ups, you'll lose several of your heads."

at the same time.

On the deck of this warship, many Black Dragon Army soldiers, as well as many martial artists who had come with the warship, were deep in thought.

After this incident...

The people on the ship became much more active, and many were discussing matters concerning Qingzhou Prefecture. After all, most of their Black Dragon Army was stationed on the border of Qingzhou Prefecture, which was the first line of defense after the fall of Qingzhou Prefecture.

If that streak of light, resembling a red sun, was actually a True Yuan Realm expert heading to support Qingzhou Prefecture, then the situation for their Black Dragon Army would be much better.

"Such a strong malevolent aura."

At this time.

Having been equipped with the Qi Absorption and Life Extension amulet, Lin Zhou returned to the cabin of the ship. Through the wooden planks of the ship, he could clearly sense the dense Yin energy at the bottom of the river.

The aura that could gather so densely seemed to contain faint spiritual energy, which was darting about within it.

Is there a flash of inspiration?

A malevolent spirit!?

As Lin Zhou sensed the malevolent aura, and the ghostly, fleeting moments of inspiration that flashed by from time to time, a strange light appeared in his eyes.

At the same time, he recalled an ancient book he had seen when he was in the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect.

That ancient book was the autobiography of a martial artist with the strength of Gang Jin, which recorded what he saw and heard throughout his life, including the existence of a demon.

This evil spirit can only be born in places where the yin energy is extremely concentrated, amidst mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

Unexpectedly, such a monstrous ghost was found at the bottom of this river. Doesn't that mean that before, there was very likely a blood-red river full of corpses beneath this river?

It's possible that the bottom of this water is made up of layers of bones.

In the blink of an eye, several hours had passed.

At the bottom of the river, faint, ghostly, and chilling spiritual energy still flickers from time to time.

And the number is starting to increase.

"Is this Fengjing City built on a mountain of corpses?"

Lin Zhou was filled with emotion.

This is only in one river surrounding Fengjing City. If the other rivers are truly like this, the malevolent energy beneath Fengjing City must have accumulated to an astonishing level.

This environment is practically a natural training ground for Lin Zhou's mutated zombie entry, and his combat power will be greatly enhanced. He can easily mobilize the evil energy underground.

The combat power of someone at the early stage of the Gang Jin realm can at least be improved to the mid-stage.

Two more days passed.

After approaching Fengjing City.

The evil spirits beneath the rivers and earth were suppressed by a powerful sealing force.

However, this sealing power only began to appear a few miles away from Fengjing City.

Furthermore, according to Lin Zhou's perception, this sealing power seemed somewhat unstable, and its suppression of the massive number of Yin Sha ghosts and other entities appeared to be faltering and losing momentum...
