Start as a Temple Spirit

Chapter 196 Taoist Shadow

On the rocky peak, Taoist Master Liu, who was watching the battle, exclaimed happily at the battle of his disciples: "The battlefield is indeed the best master."

Whether it was solid rock or thorn vine wall, Liu Taozi and his team discussed it themselves, and Liu Weizi did not participate.

"Then should I say congratulations?" Yifeng said with a smile.

"I have to say, congratulations, brother." Liu Yu rushed forward.

"Haha, my disciple's growth is indeed worthy of congratulations, so I accept Brother Feng's congratulations and Brother Yu's congratulations." Taoist Priest Liu said happily.

"Haha" Yifeng and Liu Yu also laughed.

These three guys are really shameless.

In the pavilion, the old clan leader who was lying flat on his back looked at Liang Shan with some concern and asked, "Are there really no monsters above level 4 in the ghost tide?"

"Not at the moment. If there is, Heizi and the others will take action. You can rest assured." Shang Liangshan said, looking at the starry sky.

The starry sky is bright and intoxicating, and my thoughts are flying as I remember old friends.

This is Shang Liangshan’s current state of mind.

"Without a high-level ghost leading them, how could such a large number of ghosts gather together and come towards us? It can't be explained by coincidence." The old patriarch expressed his doubts.

"There is too little information. Speculating will only bring trouble. If there is a mastermind behind this, we should just wait and see. Besides, the arrival of this wave of ghosts is a good thing for us."

"What do you mean?" The old patriarch was stunned.

"It is better to gather together and die than to wander in the wild and hunt for food."

"That's true." The old patriarch nodded, squinted his eyes and closed them to rest.

Since there are no high-level ghosts attacking, the military and civilians are more than capable of handling it. Even if there are casualties... I hope there will be only injuries but no deaths.

While the top leaders are chatting, the people below are fighting to the death. One side is trying to protect their homes, while the other side is trying to feast on flesh and blood. There is no room for negotiation, and the fight is to the death.

"Swoosh, swish, swish" the rocket roared, cutting through the night sky, bringing up roars and black smoke.

"Swish, swish, swish" the gun shot out like a dragon, piercing through the ghosts climbing up the village wall one by one and throwing them away.

"Roar!" the ghost roared, stepping on his comrades to climb the wall of the village.

From Heizi's point of view, the gap in the southwest river bank was like a flood outlet. All kinds of ghosts rushed in like a torrent, crossing the river and scattering, rushing towards the village wall, densely packed like a rising tide. The village wall was like a river embankment, standing firm at the crest of the tide.

In response, rockets roared, sparks flew, and thick smoke billowed.

The crossbow attack is undoubtedly the most powerful counterattack. The explosive crossbow arrows can sweep across an area every time, with amazing lethality. However, there are too many ghosts.

On top of the village wall, there were spears like a forest, stabbing down the ghosts that were climbing up the wall one by one.

If you look closely, you can see that the ghost that was stabbed and thrown away fell from the pile of ghosts. It did not die, but continued to rush up with excitement and roar.

This is why ghosts are so scary and difficult to deal with, and hard to kill.

"Squeak, squeak." There was a constant squeaking sound from underground. The rat that had become a ghost was trying hard to dig a hole towards the village wall, but was blocked by the rocks.

This is the result of the soil layer, blocks, and fools after the rat tide.

Learning from their experience, they used their earth-based abilities to construct a rock barrier twenty meters outside the village wall and one meter underground. The barrier was three meters wide and long enough to wrap around the village wall.

This comes in handy.

The ghost rat couldn't dig the rock, so it could only dig upwards by instinct, and then the situation became apparent.

There is a tide of ghosts running on the ground, vying for positions to attack, and their trampling force is terrifying.

The result is that the ghosts are playing whack-a-mole, and the tunnels they dug are trampled and collapsed, and those trapped in the tunnels are either killed or crippled.

On the thatched roof, the soil layer, Fangkuai, Hanzi, Xiaocao, and Xiaoli are watching the fighting on the defense line, ready to provide support at any time.

"Old Tu, why don't we go and fight for a while and then come back." Hanzi said with boiling fighting spirit.

“No.” Tuceng shook his head and said, “Once we take action, we will be besieged by ghosts. Then Yijiu and his men will come to help us, and it will affect the whole body.”

"Maintaining stability, training the military and civilians, and gaining great insights between life and death." Xiaocao sets the tone.

"Okay then." Hanzi suddenly became depressed.

"Roar!" The ghost near the parapet leaped forward with a roar, its black claws shining with black light, and its eyes bright red.

"Swish, swish, swish" several long spears stabbed and pierced through the ghosts accurately. They swung together and threw the roaring ghosts away.

"Roar" an unwilling roar, as the ghost smashed into the tide of ghosts.

"The injured ones should retreat and the reserves should take over. Don't let anyone lose too much blood and faint and be thrown off the village wall again." Yifeng Yu used the mechanical eagle to give instructions back and forth.

Since there were no ghosts above level four crashing into the village wall, he and Chen Jun, with their remaining fire, did not need to rush down to the village to kill.

He flew over Liu Taozi and shouted, "Taozi, can you do some more civil engineering to stabilize the village wall?"

"Yes, we have prepared six times." Liu Taozi replied.

"Then let's do it again. After the village wall is stabilized, you can kill them slowly."

"Okay." Liu Taozi nodded, withdrew from the battle, took out the fire talisman to send a signal.

The disciples of Xuanxu Sect responded to the signal and once again activated the earth and wood talismans to strengthen the defense of the village walls.

"Xiao Jiu, the spears are almost used up. Go and get some more. Be quick!" Yihuo, who was holding the spear with both hands and stabbing the ghost, shouted at Yijiu.

Due to his strength, he has destroyed dozens of spears since the war began.

"Got it. I'll deliver it right away." Yi Jiuyu ordered the mechanical eagle to fly towards the rock peak. He couldn't stop once he flew and became the team leader of the transport team.

"Roar" a tall figure covered with white hair, like a flying monkey, quickly rushed up with the help of the stairs built by ghosts.

As it got closer, the white-haired zombie's eyes glowed brightly red, and its ferocious face became even more hideous as its fangs were exposed.

Nearing the parapet, it swung its sharp claws and grabbed the militiamen, with fresh blood in sight.

However, what awaited it was a large shield block, and a side thrust of the spear stabbed it down.

The result of its attack was that the large shield was thrown back and the swordsman and shieldman crashed into the wall, suffering serious injuries.

"Give me the shield." The young hunting team member grabbed the big shield and held it up. The injured swordsman and shield fighter was carried down the wall by another hunting team member to receive treatment.

There are many level 4 ghosts hidden in the tide of ghosts, and they are the source of injuries to soldiers and civilians.

Yijiu and the others naturally knew the lethality that the fourth-level ghosts brought to the military and civilians, but they were helpless because there were too many ghosts and they were gathered together.

If they rush down to fight, they will definitely be surrounded and entangled by low-level ghosts, and there is a risk of being exhausted to death.

It will not be of much benefit to the battlefield, because the fourth-level ghosts will still attack the defense line. On the contrary, their absence will result in no one targeting the fourth-level ghosts.

Under such circumstances, ten figures rushed out of the village, climbed up the village wall, and targeted the fourth-level ghost that was about to cross the finish line.

They were the foreign affairs team of the Bumiaowei who had just come out of retreat. They all successfully broke through to the fourth level and absorbed two spirits.

After they joined the defense line, the number of level 4 ghosts injuring swordsmen and shieldmen gradually decreased.
