Chapter 1039: Chapter 970: I Think You’re Wrong!
Phoenix Immortal Town is the largest town south of the Capital Region Road.
Because many goods need to be transported via land to the Capital Region Road, and before entering it, a stopover is necessary.
Therefore, Phoenix Immortal Town erged as a place for everyone to rest well before entering the Capital Region Road.
With rchants constantly passing through, Phoenix Immortal Town, which was initially just a small village, has now developed into a large town with a local population of over ten thousand.
There are even troops stationed nearby.
As the Ghost Gate opened widely on the fifteenth of July recently, a large number of twisted Outer God creations surged out, impacting the entire Great Sui to a significant extent.
Many people realized that under such a disaster, their original hotowns were no longer habitable, and they had to pack up their valuables and head straight for the Capital Region Road.
After all, the Capital Region Road is under the Emperor’s feet.
In the center is the Great Sui’s capital, Daxing City.
So, as long as one can enter the Capital Region Road, they are considered safe.
Many shared this belief, and coupled with the Capital Region Road’s natural suppressing and weakening effect on the other regions, it was clear that although the Ghost Gate opened widely on the fifteenth of July,
there was no Ghost Gate that opened within the boundaries of the Capital Region Road.
This directly led many people to believe that the Capital Region Road is now the safest place in the world.
Since this is the safest place, naturally, many people want to enter the Capital Region Road.
Thus, Phoenix Immortal Town, which originally had a local population of over ten thousand, now has over fifty thousand people within the town in recent tis.
And even more people co to rest in Phoenix Immortal Town every day.
Because Phoenix Immortal Town is close to the Capital Region Road, though there are Outer God creations nearby, they are not nurous.
This led so people to think that instead of struggling to enter the Capital Region Road, settling in a place like Phoenix Immortal Town might be safer and less costly to live.
However, recently the nearby military commander suddenly led troops to surround the entire Phoenix Immortal Town.
If it were just a blockade, it would be bearable.
At this mont, all the townspeople were gathered together and driven out of the town, all concentrated to the west of the town.
Once nearly everyone in the town was accounted for, the nearby commanding officer rode slowly out on a tall horse.
“Is everyone from Phoenix Immortal Town here?”
The officer asked his soldiers.
The soldiers nodded, responding, “Reporting to the general, Phoenix Immortal Town currently has about fifty to sixty thousand people, and we have gathered nearly fifty thousand out. So are hiding and unwilling to co out; should we go in and continue the search?”
The officer raised a hand and then shook his head.
“Those people are lucky to escape this disaster, but these ones… hahaha…”
The officer laughed heartily while looking at the nervous crowd.
“Everyone, do not worry. I am a general of the Great Sui, responsible for Phoenix Immortal Town’s safety. Recently, bandits and so-called ‘Outer God creations’ have been rampant, killing many. Seeing such events pains greatly!”
At this, the officer’s expression turned sorrowful yet satisfied.
“Therefore, to save the people from peril and rescue the common folk from fire and water, I plan to take action and do sothing for the realm. You all are very fortunate to witness the arrival of a new era with !”
Upon hearing this, many worried townspeople imdiately felt relieved.
After all, these words sounded like the ambition of a general planning to do sothing for the people.
So emotional individuals even began to be moved ahead of ti.
“So, I now need all of your power. Are you willing to help ?”
At this mont, many thought the officer was recruiting soldiers.
Following such an ambitious and determined general might even make one a high official in the future.
Thus, many young and strong n clenched their fists, eager to try.
“Since you are willing, let’s begin!”
The officer saw the enthusiasm and imdiately raised a hand.
Then, his soldiers encircled the nearly fifty thousand people, and suddenly, a large formation lit up on the ground.
As black-purple mist rose, so of the weaker individuals felt excruciating pain.
Then, so people’s flesh rapidly decayed, turning them into skeletons, and the gathered flesh gradually ford a towering giant.
At this mont, the people surrounded by soldiers realized this was entirely different from what they had thought.
Escape!
At this mont, many turned to flee.
But surrounded by layers of soldiers, it was impossible for them to escape.
So soldiers also wanted to retreat, as they couldn’t bear to watch the innocent townspeople die.
Just then, a voice ca from afar.
“You have parents; you have family. Helping your superiors harm these innocent people, won’t you consider your own family?”
As the voice spread, many soldiers began to waver.
After all, Great Sui’s soldiers were relatively clean.
Hearing these words and seeing the scene before them naturally caused many to hesitate.
The officer noticed this and shouted loudly: “As the saying goes, ‘A general’s fa is built upon countless bones!’ What I am doing is for the entire realm! Sacrificing this small part of the people for the whole world, isn’t it worth it? I think they aren’t being killed; they are necessary sacrifices for the world!”
The officer shouted, hoping to stabilize his soldiers.
Ultimately, sacrificing these fifty thousand people would not only give him fifty thousand skeletons but also giant Outer God creations.
This would be the first power bestowed by the Outer God.
And as he led his army to wage war, his army of Outer God undead would grow, granting him the strength to sweep across the realm and beco the king of this world!
Thus, he must ensure the sacrificial magic continues.
At this mont, a figure rapidly approached from afar.
“I think your thinking is wrong!”
The next mont, the figure drew a massive Mo Blade, slashing towards the officer.
The officer sneered.
“I’ve been cultivating since sixteen, reached Primordial Qi Realm by nineteen, and True Core Realm by twenty-eight, becoming a Cultivator in the Spiritual Platform Realm! Where does this young kid co from to behave so arrogantly in front of ?”
While speaking, the officer pulled out his Horse Lance and thrust it towards the descending opponent.
“Young kid? Indeed, I’m rely a twenty-sothing from the Purple Mansion Realm!”
The next mont, Zhang San swung his blade, slicing the officer and his horse to pieces.
Afterward, Zhang San turned, raised his hand towards the vast formation behind him.
The Triple Combat Talisman transford into countless flying swords, destroying the formation.
Zhang San naturally couldn’t resurrect the dead.
But those still alive could leave imdiately.
At this mont, Zhang San looked at the sincerity on the ground and at the soldiers around him, who were scared into imdiate surrender, with a furrowed brow.
Zhang San realized that the officer must have acquired so power granted by the Outer God, deciding to use sacrificial ans to strengthen his own forces.
And given the situation, this might not be an isolated case.
At this mont, Zhang San realized that the crisis the world is facing and the challenge to people’s hearts are far more severe than he had imagined.
