Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension-Chapter 445 - 304: Heading East

Chapter 445: Chapter 304: Heading East

“No good, it’s the rampant Rat Plague!”

Mo Kan’s face changed drastically, and he immediately shouted behind him, “Elder, quickly release the Ancestor Corpse, or we are doomed!”

No sooner had his voice faded than the lowest level of the White Tower in the city suddenly revealed two white stone gates, which flashed open and then out leapt two Iron Armor Corpses, clad entirely in armor, with greenish-black skin and flesh.

From afar in the sky, Zhao Sheng’s gaze shifted towards the White Tower, watching as the two Iron Armor Corpses sprang ten zhang in a bound, streaking through the air seven or eight times, quickly leaping onto the castle wall and then voluntarily into the midst of the Guan Shu crowd, unleashing a mad slaughter.

Zhao Sheng was not surprised at all; he had known seven days earlier that the Golden-shaped White Tower was a place for nurturing corpses, and these two Iron Armor Corpses were indeed ancestors of the Mo Family.

Squeak Squeak!

Seeing their offspring slaughtered, several Guan Shu Elders immediately glowed red in their eyes and screamed frantically.

After hearing this, the Guan Shu crowd on the ground instantly became even more frenzied and fearlessly lunged at the two Iron Corpses.

In just a few moments, there suddenly stood two piles of Guan Shu over three zhang tall before everyone, thick with Guan Shu wriggling and gnawing at them, who actually managed to press down the immensely strong Iron Armor Corpses.

Just then, a flock of large green-feathered birds dove down, aiming for the Mo Family members atop the city walls, with Guan Shu Elders on their backs howling and dancing madly like spirit-channellers, suddenly condensing hundreds of black Rat Hair Needles and shooting them out like a cloudburst, enveloping a thirty zhang long stretch of the wall.

Ah ah!

Where the Black Needles passed, groups of the Mo Family people cried out as they tumbled to the ground, with black blood quickly oozing from the holes made by the Black Needles embedded in their bodies.

These Black Needles were incredibly poisonous.

Aloft, seeing this, Zhao Sheng furrowed his brow and let out a cold snort; flicking his fingers, he released a large swath of star-blue Sword Light with a “whoosh.” Like a sky filled with stars, it was eerily beautiful, filled with endless killing intent.

Swoosh swoosh, a sweep of Sword Light scythed through the sky, instantly causing a splatter of blood rain to fall, crimson dots scattering the ground.

Bang bang bang!

One after another, bird and rat corpses bisected by the Sword Light thudded to the ground, struggling and wailing briefly before laying still.

Having chosen to act, Zhao Sheng decisively went all out; his eyes flashed fiercely as behind him, the Void instantly surged with a brilliant golden light. The light soared skyward and, at a speed visible to the naked eye, spread out in all directions, swiftly enveloping the entire Mo Family Castle.

The imposing pressure of the Golden Core, once released, instantly shocked all beings,

Seeing this, the remaining Guan Shu crowd instinctively let out a terrified squeaking noise and scrambled, as they turned tail and fled towards the distance.

“Wretched beasts, where do you think you’re running to!” Mo Ye roared angrily, his figure moving to chase after them.

“Don’t chase them!” the castle lord Mo Kan shouted aloud, and Mo Ye, with a flicker of reluctance on his face, stopped his pursuit.

At this point, the chaos inside Mo Family Castle had gradually stabilized, though some of the wounded were still crying out in pain.

“Although the rat disaster has receded, we can’t be careless. All of you stay on guard for now. I and Ye will go to meet the elder.” Mo Kan’s expression slightly relaxed as he immediately instructed his clansmen.

The others joyfully saluted, then dispersed.

Having finished speaking, Mo Kan looked back only to be surprised to find Zhao Sheng was nowhere to be seen.

It was said that Mo Kan and his son hurried to Zhao Sheng’s accommodation to pay their respects with utmost reverence.

However, by that time, the place was already deserted.

…

Two days later,

On a vast plain, a majestic and splendid city of Qingjin hue stood, bordered by a magnificent river that flowed from the south to the north beside the city, its vastness flowing endlessly.

At this moment, it was Noon, the Great Sun hung high in the sky, and a bustling stream of people was continuously entering and leaving through the city gates, wearing a variety of clothing, seemingly Human Clan Cultivators from various different regions.

Just then, a dazzling golden light raced from the distance, stopping in the Upper Sky above a Small Mountain near the city, the golden light receding to reveal a figure shrouded in flaming radiance, dressed in mysterious white robes.

It was Zhao Sheng, who had traveled all the way from Mo Family Castle.

Zhao Sheng dispersed his flaming radiance with a thought and glanced towards where the city lay.

In his view, the entire city’s walls stood seventy to eighty zhang high, entirely composed of giant Qingjin Rock blocks.

In the corners atop the city, one could see giant Golden Pillars rising above the walls, their surfaces faintly circulating with black runes without cease.

This was none other than the notably famous Qingjin City of the Nine Demon Continent.

The Nine Demon Continent was mainly dominated by the Nine Alien Clans; mid to small clans vassal to these major powers frequently waged wars against each other for resources, causing constant strife.

The Human Clan, ranking just below the nine clans, always maintained neutrality, and to provide a fair trading venue for the clans throughout the continent, cities like Qingjin City for trading came into being.

In Qingjin City, fighting and forced trading are prohibited, making it a very safe trading place for mid to small clans and various independent sects.

After observing for a while, Zhao Sheng flew into the city.

At the gate of Qingjin City, seven or eight guards were stationed, three of whom looked distinctly different from the Human Clan, with naïve yet sharp eyes and big black noses resembling black strawberries, and their necks covered with soft satin-like fur.

These features immediately identified them as members of the River Otter People, an Alien Race quite close to the Human Clan. Seeing members of this race in Qingjin City by the river was not at all surprising.

After a brief interrogation, these guards collected some Spirit Stones from Zhao Sheng and allowed him into the city.

Passing through the city gate, he was suddenly met with a bustling scene, several wide streets unfolding before him.
