Chapter 266: Demons are rampant, the Wolf King is in power
"idiot!"
Seeing the warrior whose chest was pierced by the zombies' hands, who was drinking blood in big gulps, and had no breath left, breathing in more than out, the old Taoist became furious and started cursing.
He saw that the blood hole that had just been blasted by the thunder talisman passed down by his master was healing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. Although it was a lifeless zombie, it had been killing civilians one after another. Now that it had drunk the blood of the warriors, it had acquired a strange and twisted vitality.
"Hiss~ha... the blood of a warrior tastes... really good!"
Hugging the warrior's gradually shriveling corpse, the zombie raised its scarlet eyes and spoke again. However, this time his words were much more fluent than before, and there was not even a hint of stuttering.
"Kill him!"
The old Taoist priest in the lead was both angry and regretful. He regretted that he had not been more decisive and used another thunder talisman to completely destroy the zombie. He was angry at these warriors. Even though he had repeatedly warned them, they were still so lazy and lost their lives for no reason.
"ha……"
The zombie opened his mouth and spat out a foul, turbid air. His arms, no longer stiff, swung to both sides and immediately tore open the warrior's corpse that had been sucked dry in his arms.
Such a provocative action made the friends who were familiar with the deceased warrior roar in anger, and they rushed forward with swords in their hands. However, when they chopped the zombie with the refined swords in their hands, there was a sound of iron colliding, and even sparks flew.
“You don’t know your own limitations!”
The zombie sneered, and its body moved like a ghost. Its legs were three feet off the ground, and it flew into the air and pounced on the warrior closest to it.
The lightning-fast speed and the strength that could tear tigers and leopards apart alive immediately made the targeted warrior look desperate. Just as he was sighing that his life was over, he saw a lightning bolt as thick as a chopstick, which passed by his cheek, made his hair fly in the air, and hit the face of the zombie.
Suddenly, blood and flesh were flying everywhere, and the already rotten facial features were gone. The pale skull was visible, and even a few maggots could be seen wriggling in the black and red flesh.
ah--
Even though the thunder talisman destroyed most of the flesh and blood on the zombie's head, it only caused its body to shake. It only stayed in the air for two or three breaths before it pounced again on its original target. With a scream, another warrior died.
Crackling
At this time, the old Taoist priest no longer cared about keeping anything. He threw out the few thunder talismans in his hand, which turned into streams of light and lightning that struck the zombie, and also blew the corpse of the warrior in its arms into pieces.
Ouch——
The zombies howled miserably under the bombardment of thunder, but the old Taoist stared at the roaring zombies with an expression of disbelief and despair on his face.
"Is God going to destroy our human race?"
"Master!"
Seeing the Taoist sighing and emitting a dejected aura, many warriors were at a loss, because in their eyes, the zombie had been blown to the point where it was almost unrecognizable. Wasn't the demon already eliminated? What else was there to sigh about?
"escape!"
Seeing these warriors who were still in ignorance, the old Taoist priest could feel the dead and cold aura gradually growing stronger in the smoke and clouds, and he shouted at these warriors.
"Hey, old man, your thunder really hurt me, but it seems to be of no use to me now."
When the smoke dissipated, it seemed as if a skeleton dotted with minced meat and filthy black blood was revealed, and a strong stench of rotten flesh being burned by a roasting scorch filled the air.
"how so?"
"Why aren't you dead yet?"
Seeing that this zombie, which had been buried for less than half a month, was so ferocious, many warriors were scared out of their wits. Even those warriors who originally wanted to challenge and hone their skills gave up at this moment. Martial arts are important, but life and property are more precious.
"It is God's will. Fate plays tricks on us. Today, the world no longer favors the human race, but instead favors these evil demons."
The old Taoist priest's face was ashen, and all his energy and spirit seemed to have been devoured by an unknown demon, and there was no light in his eyes.
Because what he had seen and heard in the past few years had challenged the knowledge he had accumulated in the first half of his life. The speed at which demons and ghosts were born and became stronger was faster than ever before, making a Taoist like him feel anxious and exhausted.
In the past few years, he has clearly felt that the speed at which he accumulated spiritual power while meditating has slowed down significantly. He originally thought that his practice had reached a bottleneck, which was why this phenomenon occurred.
However, he now saw with his own eyes a newly born zombie, which, merely by devouring the blood and essence of several warriors, its evil spirit grew unreasonable and rapidly without any stagnation, as if there was no bottleneck obstacle.
Is this a zombie with extremely strong talents? But he had already found out that the predecessor of this zombie was a wealthy landlord who died in a woman's belly. How could such a ferocious zombie be raised by such a physical talent?
If it were just one or two, but as he had been slaying demons and monsters over the past few years, the talismans left by his ancestors were becoming less and less useful, and the demons he encountered were becoming more and more outrageous.
He realized that this was not caused by a certain person or a certain demon, but by changes in the heaven and earth, which no longer favored humans but favored demons and monsters.
The original situation of the Tao rising and the devil declining has been completely reversed, and it has become the devil rising and the Tao declining. On the contrary, those who are practicing on the right path will be suppressed in various ways no matter where they are, and their practice will be at a disadvantage everywhere.
"Old man, are you done talking? If you are, it's time to get ready to hit the road!"
The zombie, which was already able to fly in the air, pounced on him with a foul smell, and was about to tear open the old Taoist's neck and drink his blood full of spiritual power.
Boom——
A three-foot-thick bolt of lightning struck straight down from the dark cloudy sky like a sword of divine punishment, instantly enveloping the blood-filled, still rampant and complacent zombie.
No!!!
Only a short and quick roar was heard, and then the zombie was seen in the lightning, without any strength to struggle or resist. It only lasted for a short moment before turning into ashes.
The old Taoist priest, whose eyes had lost their luster, regained a hint of life when he saw this scene.
"Oh my god, are you opening your eyes?!"
The old Taoist priest cried and laughed when he saw this scene, but his experience in spiritual practice told him that the thunder that just fell was not a thunder from heaven, but a spell cast by a great monk. If that was the case, it would be even better.
Along with many warriors who were startled by the lightning that fell from the sky, the old Taoist priest looked up at the place where the thunder fell in the sky. Then, he saw a dark crack that was particularly conspicuous even under the dark sky, emerging silently.
"This is……"
The old Taoist priest's eyes widened and his body began to tremble involuntarily.
This was certainly not God's will, because in the dark crack, a giant claw burning with blue ghost fire stretched out from it, and then a demon head as big as a house stretched out from the crack.
The demonic power, which was already vague at first, became heavy and stagnant as the giant demon showed up. The Taoists and warriors present felt as if they were thrown into a paste made from glutinous rice. Even moving their hands and feet felt extremely difficult.
"I see, I see, hahahahahahaha, God wants to destroy our human race!"
Even under such heavy oppression, the old Taoist priest was crying and laughing, almost crazy. He looked at the big demon who walked out of the crack in the underworld, stepping on the dark clouds and carrying the stars and the moon on his back, and turbid tears flowed from his wrinkled face.
Awoo——
The horrible demons stepping on the dark clouds seemed to disdain to pay attention to the human race as weak as ants. They looked up at the bright moon as round as a jade plate high in the sky, raised their heads and let out a long howl. Suddenly, they saw the moonlight like threads, and finally gathered into a small stream, pouring into their wide open bloody mouths.
As the giant monster swallowed and exhaled the moonlight unscrupulously, the originally bright and clear moon and the stars dotted on the sky suddenly dimmed, and the world became even darker. Only the blue ghost fire wrapped around the giant monster was burning fiercely, as if to become the only source of light in the world.
Seeing this scene, the old Taoist priest, whose Taoist faith was almost collapsed, looked as pale as death and fell to the ground on his back.
The next moment, the old Taoist saw with his own eyes that around this terrifying monster, there were wolves as small as calves and as big as buildings. They swarmed out in groups and fell to the ground from the sky on clouds and evil winds.
"My life is over!"
Some warriors sighed, then simply dropped their swords and imitated the old Taoist priest, lying back and not bothering to struggle to escape. Just looking at the size of these monsters, even the weakest one would have no difficulty chasing him.
Many warriors followed suit, some simply lay on the ground, closed their eyes and waited for death, only a very few had their eyes wide open, holding swords and weapons in their hands, ready to die heroically in the fight with the monsters.
However, to the surprise of the Taoist and the warrior, the pack of demon wolves that fell from the sky did not even glance at them even after noticing their presence. The old Taoist even watched a demon wolf walk on all fours, as if he did not exist, and stepped over his head.
"What's going on?"
The old Taoist looked bewildered. He was not bragging. People like him who practice cultivation inhale and exhale the morning glow every day and extract the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. To those powerful demons, cultivators like him are human pills.
It was really hard for him to believe that there were demons in this world that would watch a cultivator like him go and remain indifferent. If he took a bite of it, his demonic power would increase greatly and his realm would rise. Who could resist such temptation?
Awoo——
In the night sky, the big demon that was swallowing the moonlight seemed to be satisfied, and stepped on the blazing fire, and fell to the ground step by step from the flowing clouds, not far from the Taoist priest and the warrior.
The old Taoist priest, who was curious about the strange behavior of these monsters and even had some inexplicable expectations, immediately noticed that above the head of the big monster with thick and flowing hair, there was actually a white shadow standing proudly. He looked closely and found that it was an extraordinarily handsome young man in white.
A transformed monster? !
This was the first guess that popped into the old Taoist's mind, but he quickly rejected it because he found that although the boy had regular facial features and an immortal look, unlike an ordinary person, he had his own charm and was definitely not a demon.
Could it be some Taoist master?
Thinking of the thunder that just fell, the old Taoist's mind suddenly became more active, even a little excited. He had been slumped on the ground with no image, but he suddenly jumped up and straightened his Taoist robe.
However, before he could go to pay his respects, he saw the young man who was suspected to be a Taoist master, waving his hand and throwing out a round crystal, which seemed to have a little scarlet glow in it.
"Gulp!"
The old Taoist priest seemed to smell some extremely tempting scent and couldn't help swallowing his saliva. However, when he sniffed carefully, there was no smell at all.
Crackle, clackle——
Suddenly, the sound of dense wings breaking through the air was heard, and a fishy and unpleasant smell of evil spirits drifted in with the evening breeze. The old Taoist looked up and immediately saw a huge evil cloud stretching for more than ten miles rising from the mountains not far away.
The evil cloud was made up of huge bats with wingspans ranging from ten to thirty meters. They were clearly monsters. Their pairs of scarlet blood pupils were so dense in the night that it made people shudder.
Even though the old Taoist priest had traveled far and wide and was knowledgeable, he couldn't help but shudder. He had never imagined that such a terrifying group of monsters could be lurking in the deep mountains.
The world has only been in chaos for a few years. How could there be such an outlier?
Thousands of bat monsters took off into the air, but this was just the beginning. As the bat monsters took off into the air, the ground began to shake slightly, and fine cracks appeared. Then a giant beast that was more than ten feet long and covered with scales emerged from the ground, followed by dozens of earth dragons as thick as buckets, tearing the soil apart.
Cry!
In the distant mountains, the cries of birds of prey were heard. One after another, fierce birds cast huge shadows on the ground and flew through the clouds. Almost at the same time, the roars of tigers and evil beasts were heard. The mountains and forests trembled, and the trees were withered...
In just a short moment, the Taoist priest and the warrior saw what was happening: the demons were dancing wildly and the monsters were fighting.
It was hard for the Taoists to imagine that there were so many monsters within a radius of a few thousand miles. Even in the sky, they gathered into a torrent of monsters.
However, despite such a frightening scene, the old Taoist priest also noticed that these exaggerated and terrifying demons were clearly targeting the crystal ball thrown casually by the white-clothed boy standing on the black wolf.
"Black Mountain , can you kill them all?"
Feng Qing'an looked at the torrent of monsters that were crossing the sky and chasing the Soul Blood Jade, then looked down at the Black Mountain.
Awooo~
Heishan let out a confident roar. Although there were a lot of monsters before him, none of them could make him take them seriously. They were all just some small monsters that were not worth mentioning. They became monsters only by taking advantage of the changes in the energy of this world.
"Then what are you waiting for!"
As the white-clothed young man finished speaking, the wolf king, who was haunted by ghost flames, slowly opened his bloody mouth. When his wolf kiss opened to the limit, a blue divine light suddenly burst out from his mouth.
It was as if a divine sword was born that would split the heaven and earth in two. A blue divine light shot straight up from the ground to the sky. Wherever the divine light passed, the demons chasing the Soul Blood Jade exploded in groups...
