Chapter 4717
"F * ck …" The Lightning Reverend was dumbfounded, "This … How can we live like this?
Why can't we kill these strange insects? "
"Kill!" The Lightning Reverend was enraged. He sent out the Soul Punishing Light to kill the mayflies again.
Fortunately, the Lightning Reverend was patient. He killed the mayflies several times before they were reduced to the size of black dots!
Even so, the mayflies were still alive!
"Looks like … I can only use my true energy to make them explode!"
Only then did the Lightning Reverend, who had lost his head from anger, wave his hand again. Several lightning bolts fell, and the true energy contained in the lightning bolts exploded the mayflies!
At this time, Reverend Yun, who had killed another mayfly, flew over and mocked, "Fellow Daoist Xiao has already tried, but you don't believe me!"
"What's wrong?
I don't believe it! "
Seeing that Reverend Yun had unleashed a vast dragon energy that caused one after another mayflies to explode, Lightning Reverend straightened his neck and retorted.
Reverend Yun didn't want to argue with this idiot. He smiled and said, "If you don't believe me, then go tell the mayflies!
I don't care! "
Then, Reverend Yun swung his dragon tail and attacked another mayfly …
After Xiao Hua, the Lightning Reverend, and Reverend Yun killed the mayflies, they stopped and stood in midair. The three of them looked like they were watching the battle, but in fact, Xiao Hua had already released his Netherworld Origin Force to collect the souls of the Duanmu Family's disciples!
"Eh?
Something's not right! "
Xiao Hua, who was collecting the souls, suddenly trembled. He exclaimed, "Why aren't there any mayflies' souls?
I clearly saw more than a dozen mayflies being killed, but where the Netherworld Origin Force swept over, there was nothing?
Could it be that the mayflies don't have souls? "
"Impossible, right?
Every living being has a soul! "Reverend Yun was also stunned." Perhaps, these mayflies are from the upper realm, and Fellow Daoist can't collect them? "
"Impossible!"
The Lightning Reverend immediately retorted, "When we were in the Ruins and on the Desolate Continent, we also collected souls from the upper realm. Currently, on the Shenhua Continent, many of our Fortune Gate's outstanding disciples … are probably reincarnated from the souls we collected back then!"
"Perhaps …" Xiao Hua pondered and said, "It's because the mayflies don't have souls, all the living beings they devoured and killed … can't enter reincarnation?"
"Ask Fellow Daoist Wu to come out and see!" The Lightning Reverend laughed.
"True!"
Xiao Hua nodded. "Daoist Wu, ever since he come out, he has been in seclusion. It's time for him to come out!"
Unfortunately, when Xiao Hua's mind entered the space, the Witch Priest's figure turned into a dark green bone flower. Waves of obscure and strange green seal script appeared around him like flowers blooming and withering. It was obvious that he had reached the key point of cultivation.
Daoist Daoist to come out.
The moment Xiao Hua came out, the Lightning Reverend and Reverend Yun understood. Reverend Yun looked around and said, "Fellow Daoist, if there's nothing else, I will also go cultivate!"
"I will go too!" The Lightning Reverend was unwilling to be left behind. "If I don't cultivate, I'll be overtaken by that strange thing!"
The Lightning Reverend threw the Sword Gourd to Xiao Hua and followed Reverend Yun back to the Shenhua Continent.
The number of mayflies besieging the Duanmu Family was much more than the number of mayflies besieging the High Cloud Side Hall. This time, the battle had gone on for more than ten days before it came to an end.
At this time, the valley was no longer able to take its original shape. The small Red Mayflies had swallowed a layer of the ground, and the newly exposed land was dyed a reddish-brown by the blood of the Duanmu Family's disciples. In less than ten days, half of the Duanmu Family's disciples had fallen. Even among the Fortune Gate's disciples, although Xiao Hua had sent out disciples with a cultivation of grade four and above, twenty percent of them had fallen in this great battle!
If it weren't for the fact that Xiao Hua could store their souls into his space, he would be heartbroken!
As dusk fell, the land was dyed red with blood. Although there were still some mayflies that escaped aimlessly into the void, the Duanmu Family and Fortune Gate's disciples were too tired to chase after them, thus they let them escape into the void!
"Sigh …" Xiao Hua's heart ached. He raised his hand, and a giant lightning hand several hundred li wide appeared. Rumbling noises resounded as the giant lightning hand fell into the void. "Puff, puff, puff, puff …" Sounds like firecrackers during the New Year echoed in the void …
"Junior Duanmu Qingyu greets Master Xiao Lei!"
After Xiao Hua retrieved the giant lightning hand, an old man with white hair and beard flew out from the valley. He landed in front of Xiao Hua and bowed respectfully.
Xiao Hua's divine sense swept over him, and he immediately knew that this blood-stained Duanmu Qingyu was a Literary Saint with a cultivation of ninth grade essence force.
"You're welcome!" Xiao Hua helped Duanmu Qingyu up and said in a low voice, "I'm late …"
"Sigh, there's nothing to be late about!"
Duanmu Qingyu sighed, "If it weren't for Master Xiao Lei's arrival, if it weren't for the Fortune Gate's disciples' help, my Duanmu Family would have been annihilated!
My Duanmu Family will never forget the Fortune Gate's grace to my Duanmu Family! "
Shame appeared on Duanmu Qingyu's face as he continued, "To think that my Duanmu Family and Master Xiao Lei …"
"It's all in the past, there's no need to mention it!"
Xiao Hua hurriedly waved his hand, stopping Duanmu Qingyu's confession. "Now, the three mainlands' survival is at stake, our grudges … should be put aside!"
"Senior …." Even as he spoke, another Cultivator flew out from the group of disciples in the valley. As soon as he landed in front of Xiao Hua, he dropped to his knees and kowtowed. "Junior was wrong just now. Senior, please forgive me!"
Wasn't this the Duanmu Liangsheng who had chased after Xiao Hua in Cang Langzi's cultivation dwelling?
However, the current Duanmu Liangsheng was no longer as carefree and elegant as before. Not only was his scholarly robe in tatters, even his left arm was missing. Clearly, it was chopped off by Fu You's hind leg!
Xiao Hua hurriedly helped Duanmu Liangsheng up, smiling as he said, "You were merely following the sect's orders, you can't be blamed for this matter!"
"Senior …" Tears flowed down from the corners of Duanmu Liangsheng's eyes. Perhaps it was because of the sect's changes, or perhaps it was because of his injuries, but he said in a melancholic tone, "Junior has never seen a cultivator as magnanimous as Senior, repaying evil with good …"
"Master Xiao Lei is the Buddhist Sect's Namo Merciful Great Guanyin Bodhisattva!"
Duanmu Qingyu hurriedly added, "If Senior isn't merciful, how could there be a merciful person in the three mainlands?"
"Yes, yes, that is indeed the case!" Duanmu Liangsheng hurriedly said with a smile.
"Master Xiao Lei …" Duanmu Qingyu continued, "You've given my Duanmu Family a new lease on life. Now that my Duanmu Family's Patriarch has just fallen, why don't Master Xiao Lei take over my Duanmu Family …"
Hearing Duanmu Qingyu's words, Xiao Hua immediately waved his hand and said, "This is your Duanmu Family's matter, this Xiao will not interfere!
Moreover, my Fortune Gate's disciples are tired, this Xiao Hua still has to bring them back to the West Sea!
Oh, right … "
Xiao Hua reached out and picked up the Torch Dragon God Puppet that had fallen into the valley. He asked, "This Xiao Hua is very interested in this thing, I wonder if your Duanmu Family is willing to part with it?"
"Of course!"
Duanmu Qingyu didn't even think before saying, "My Duanmu family was saved by Master Xiao Lei. Not to mention a god-demon puppet, even if Master Xiao wants anything from my Duanmu family, my Duanmu family will give it to him!"
"Hehe, many thanks!"
Xiao Hua put away the Torch Dragon God Puppet and nodded at Duanmu Qingyu and Duanmu Liangsheng.
"Farewell, Master Xiao Lei!"
Duanmu Qingyu and Duanmu Liangsheng hurriedly bowed to send Xiao Hua off. The group of Duanmu Family's disciples also bowed gratefully and shouted in unison, "Farewell, Master Xiao Lei!"
Although the setting sun dyed the land red with blood, their grateful voices and thoughts penetrated through the blood-red sky and reached Xiao Hua's ears.
Seeing that Xiao Hua had left, the Fortune Gate's disciples who were already in formation immediately flew off after him. In less than a cup of tea's time, only the Duanmu Family's disciples were left on the valley!
"Ai …" Duanmu Qingyu looked at Xiao Hua and the Fortune Gate's experts' backs for a long time and sighed, "If there were no mayflies, the Hidden Immortal Mainland's situation would be clear.
Now that the mayflies have appeared, who will rule the world in the future?! "
Duanmu Qingyu's last sentence was actually the last sentence in the 'Four Great Families Demand for Gouchen's Return'. Duanmu Liangsheng's body trembled slightly when he heard it. He understood that the Duanmu Family was one of the people who had agreed to surround Immortal Emperor Gouchen at the Longevity Town.
However, his gaze swept over the Duanmu Family's disciples, and he understood even more clearly that the past … was also the past, it was all gone!!!
After flying for half a day, Xiao Hua stopped. The Fortune Gate's disciples behind him also hurriedly lined up and waited.
Xiao Hua's expression was complicated as he looked at these Fortune Gate's disciples. An indescribable feeling of regret rose in his heart. He understood in his heart.
These Fortune Gate's disciples belonged to the Shenhua Continent, and had nothing to do with the three mainlands!
What World Extinguishing Mayflies, what Daoist and Confucian wars, to them … they were nothing.
However, because of themselves, because of the kindness in their hearts that others could not understand, they were forced to get involved.
The Soaring Dragon Mountain Range was like this, Chaomu Cliff was like this, and today's Duanmu Family battle was also like this!
Although these Fortune Gate's disciples lived on the Shenhua Continent, Xiao Hua felt that they had the right to know and the right to choose. After all, this was not a simple battle, but a life and death battle. Those who came out from the Shenhua Continent did not have the chance to return alive!
In the past ten days of fierce battle, nearly twenty percent of the Fortune Gate's disciples were killed by the mayflies. This was something Xiao Hua had never encountered before!
Thus, Xiao Hua's gaze swept over the injured Fortune Gate's disciples, and he said, "Disciples, you have worked hard, this old man has something to say …"
Then, Xiao Hua explained the current situation on the Hidden Immortal Mainland, the Fortune Gate's situation, and the World Extinguishing Mayflies' power in full detail. In the end, he said, "This old man is indeed a little selfish. After all, the three mainlands and four seas have billions of lives, this old man cannot bear to see them go extinct!
Therefore, this old man wants to save the world with my own strength!
Unfortunately, the three mainlands cannot be compared to the previous … That mainland, this old man's strength was too weak. This old man had no choice but to borrow the strength of my Fortune Gate's disciples to bring all of you out from the Kunlun Immortal Domain … "
"Sect Master …" Before Xiao Hua could finish, the several hundred disciples in front of him had already shouted, "We were Fortune Gate's disciples in life, and Fortune Gate's ghosts in death!
Everything we have is given to us by Sect Master, we are willing to follow Sect Master to exterminate the mayflies!
We can die without regrets … "
Xiao Hua's eyes were brimming with tears as he looked at these adorable disciples and smiled faintly, "In the past, when this old man was alone, it was extremely easy for this old man to say such bold words, but now, this old man has the Fortune Gate, and the people I love, so there are many more concerns!
Judging others by my own standards, this old man also knows your situation. Today, this old man has made things clear so that you can make a choice. You have your own lives in the Kunlun Immortal Domain on the Shenhua Continent, and you also have your own loves and pursuits. This is your own right, this old man will not force you to sacrifice your lives for this old man's interests!
Therefore, when you return to the Shenhua Continent, convey this old man's words to the Fortune Gate's disciples, so that they can understand and make a choice.
If you are willing to follow this old man and fight for the unrelated human race, dragon race, and demonic beast race, then be prepared. The next time there is a bloody battle, this old man will invite you out of the Shenhua Continent to fight. If you are unwilling, then you can do whatever you like, this old man … will not force you! "
"Sect Master …" The group of disciples still wanted to speak, but Xiao Hua smiled faintly. He took out the Kunlun Mirror and sent all of them into his space.
Life and death matters were easy to talk about, but extremely difficult to do. Moreover, Xiao Hua knew that these eager disciples were sincere in their thoughts, but if they returned to the Shenhua Continent and thought about it again, and then discussed with their relatives and friends, there might be a different outcome.
After accepting these disciples, Xiao Hua pondered for a moment, then invited Princess Zi Xia out. Princess Zi Xia looked around and hurriedly asked, "Xiao Hua, what's the situation?"
"The Duanmu Family … should be crippled!" Xiao Hua's expression was cautious as he explained the situation.
Hearing that Duanmu Tianzhi had also died, Princess Zi Xia frowned slightly. She thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Hua, Duanmu Qingyu is right, you … should go down!
The Hundred Confucian Families' foundation is far from what you can imagine!
What you saw was only the Duanmu Family's superficial casualties, but what about the Duanmu Family's private forces?
They might not have suffered any losses!
Of course, Duanmu Tianzhi's death … really surprised me. Perhaps he was too careless?
However, for any Confucian family, the Patriarch is a representative, a leader, but the family's strict ancestral laws are enough to ensure the family's normal existence. Xiao Hua should go and help Duanmu Qingyu one more time, in the future … it will also be beneficial to the Fortune Gate! "
Princess Zi Xia didn't blame Xiao Hua. Instead, she spoke tirelessly and gently reminded him. Xiao Hua smiled and said, "It's not that I don't want to go to the Duanmu Clan. It's just that the Hidden Immortal Continent is filled with danger. A mere Duanmu Clan … is nothing in my eyes.
Of course, I also admit that I don't know Confucian families as well as you, and I didn't expect that the Duanmu Family, which lost so many disciples, might not be damaged.
A crafty rabbit has three burrows, and the Duanmu Family might have other foundations!
However, the crisis is beyond my expectations, I … am too lazy to think too much about these trivial matters! "
"A monster bug king surpassing the ninth grade of essence force?" Princess Zi Xia keenly sensed Xiao Hua's misgivings, and asked considerately.
"That's right!"
Xiao Hua nodded solemnly, "Previously, I and the other Exalts felt that since it surpassed the ninth grade of essence force, it had already surpassed the laws of heaven and earth of the three continents, and it must be a monster bug king!
Even if this monster bug king exists, it is extremely rare.
In fact, this' rare 'is also our pessimistic thinking. In my opinion, maybe one or two would be enough!
However, from the situation of the Duanmu Family's attack today, this monster bug king … might be an ordinary monster bug!
In the future, it will be normal to see a monster bug king in a swarm of bugs! "
"According to Xiao Hua, a monster bug king … seems like even His Majesty, the Golden Winged Great Roc, and the Dipankara Archaic Buddha are unable to kill it …" Princess Zi Xia's expression changed, and she said in shock, "Then … then wouldn't the three continents … really have no way to survive?"
"That's right!" Xiao Hua nodded, "As of now, this monster bug king can only be exterminated by this Xiao's pills!
This Xiao naturally wouldn't be stingy with these pills, but what if I run out of pills?
Then … it will only be a hopeless situation! "
"There is no way out to other worlds, and there are no flaws in the Immortal Formation. The monster bug king … even the Exalts of the various sects are no match for it!" Princess Zi Xia's face turned pale, and she groaned, "Our three continents have really fallen into a hopeless situation!"
"The hopeless situation is already in front of us, but we haven't fallen into it yet!" Xiao Hua bit his lips lightly, and said, "We still have time to think of a solution!
From the current situation, for some unknown reason, these Mayfly monster bugs haven't attacked us en masse, and instead, they are attacking some blessed lands.
His Majesty the Immortal Emperor has already issued an edict, and our human race and monster race have already started to take the initiative to attack. Perhaps we can seize the initiative!
What makes this Xiao the happiest is that the Mayflies don't seem to be particularly interested in ordinary humans. Unless there are special circumstances, they won't attack ordinary people … "
"Bugs are bugs!"
Princess Zi Xia nodded, and said, "They only choose to devour True Qi that they are interested in. However, it is precisely because of this blindness that ordinary people are also likely to be accidentally injured!"
Hearing this, Xiao Hua's heart skipped a beat, because when he was in the Immortal Town, the apocalyptic warning had swept across the sky, and the Hidden Immortal Continent, the Western Paradise, the Thousand Demons Sacred Realm, and the Four Seas had first received news about the World Destroying Mayflies, and many of those news were about ordinary people.
However, judging from the recent situation, the number of casualties among ordinary people had decreased again.
However, after thinking for a moment, Xiao Hua understood that it wasn't that the monster bugs didn't kill ordinary people, but that ordinary people didn't have any means to resist. When the World Destroying Mayflies attacked, other than being silently killed, there was no other outcome. It was far less vigorous than when the cultivators resisted the Mayflies.
Perhaps because of this … Xiao Hua and the other cultivators didn't notice?
