As soon as Xiao Jie and the others climbed over the wall, the two Colonels quickly approached, "This hero, has the hero ’Xia Yi the Unrivaled’ returned?"
Xiao Jie then remembered, Xia probably didn’t know whether he was dead or alive.
"Xia Yi the Unrivaled, are you dead or not?" he shouted into the YY channel.
"Hahaha, don’t worry, I’m not that easy to kill. I’m just stuck in the inn, and I can’t join you for now."
Xiao Jie couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief, thinking it was good that he wasn’t dead. This guy really has a strong fate. Could it be that he truly unlocked the Demon Slaying Sword?
"My brother is fine, you two can rest assured and focus on repelling the enemy."
The two Colonels each nodded, "That’s good. When this battle is over, we must properly thank that hero. Thanks to him, we were able to retreat here."
Saying this, they led the soldiers to the city walls to defend.
Xiao Jie looked at the defenses of the City Lord Mansion, feeling that they could hold on for a while.
"There are fifteen minutes left, everyone get on the city walls, guard well - I’m going to find the old captain to ask about the situation."
He still didn’t know what the Immortal Prohibition the old captain mentioned was, and he didn’t want to be fooled.
As soon as Xiao Jie entered the high tower, he saw a huge jade plate placed in the middle of the hall, with eight Taoists surrounding it, constantly activating the runes on the jade plate.
The jade plate had a total of one hundred and twenty-eight runes, most of which were already lit at this time.
It seemed that once all the runes were lit, the prohibition would be activated.
Suspended above the jade plate was a bronze ancient mirror.
The back of the ancient mirror was intricately patterned with yin-yang, eight trigrams, and star formations, while the front was a dark, water-like surface. As the runes were gradually lit, the patterns on the bronze ancient mirror projected a dazzling light, the light almost piercing through the tower top as it shot towards the sky.
"This is the Yin Yang Soul Suppressing Mirror, the treasure we use to guard Soul Suppressing Pass. It was left here by the Immortals when they subdued demons and expelled evil ghosts. Once the Immortal Prohibition is activated, this treasure can release the full power of the Immortals, and at that time, all the undead within the city will be eradicated." The old captain explained on the side, his expression quite tense.
"How much longer do you need?"
"We need another quarter of an hour."
Rumble, the sound of gunpowder jars exploding suddenly came from outside. Xiao Jie knew that the monsters were starting to attack again.
"Alright, just one quarter of an hour. Rest assured, old general, I said I could defend, and I certainly will help you hold it. But after it’s done, don’t go back on your word." Xiao Jie said as he turned and walked out.
A move of Flying Cloud Chasing Moon brought him to the city walls. Looking outside, he gasped; the enemy’s speed was faster than he had imagined. Most of the flood had already receded, and a dark crowd of corpses was surging towards the city walls, and those two Floating Corpses were also approaching.
The Three Ghost Generals stood in line outside the city, with the Nether River Knights in strict formation, just waiting for the Floating Corpses to break through the city wall so they could swarm in.
This inner city was very narrow. Once broken through, there would be no room for maneuvering.
"Everyone, hold on for the last ten minutes. Use any control skills, and large-area AOE skills. Just use them all."
After speaking, Xiao Jie directly led by casting a spell.
Sorcery - Call the Wind Skill!
Strawberry Coke also wielded his sword to cast a spell.
Gale Summoning - Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry!
Big Orange also roared, casting Call the Wind Skill.
Seeing this, the two masters of Pure Yang and Tai Yin also immediately activated Call the Wind Skill. Although the two mainly focused on Evil Exorcism and Ghost Control, Call the Wind Skill was a basic Daoist Skill that they also slightly understood.
The most practical aspect of the Call the Wind Skill was its ability to stack. With five or six people casting it together, a gale was unleashed immediately.
The two Floating Corpses bore the brunt of this, becoming the primary targets of the Call the Wind Skill. Naturally slow in movement and incredibly tall, they were the best targets, struggling under the howling winds.
"Yes, don’t let the Floating Corpses get near the city walls!"
The Three Ghost Generals saw this and became anxious.
Spirit Extinguisher (Netherworld Ghost General): "Damn it, we must get the Floating Corpses to the city to conquer the inner city!"
Jue Gu (Netherworld Ghost General): "Why hasn’t the master taken action yet?"
Duan Zui (Netherworld Ghost General): "What, are you questioning the master’s will?"
