Chapter 1781: Divine Fire Falls from the Sky
"What if the pests become more tolerant to pesticides?" Bai Ziqi sighed inwardly, "Either increase the dosage and toxicity, or..."
Either you have to change the pesticide or the method of killing.
There is also bad news:
The divine gaze planted on the disciples of the Illusion Sect and the Queen Spider was cut off after they crossed the lake.
This world's resistance to divine arts is truly thorough; Qian Huan must have done it on purpose.
Fortunately, an insect demon flew over and whispered in Bai Ziqi's ear: "Master, we found it."
Bai Ziqi was overjoyed: "Great! Sure enough, the magic still works here."
If magic doesn't work, then use witchcraft.
The world of Qianhuan resists divine magic, but it is impossible to reject all evil magic.
"Follow closely, let's play the long game and catch the big fish. They will definitely go find Qian Huan!" Bai Ziqi's eyes gleamed, "Don't rush to attack, we have to hit them with one strike!"
Now is not a good time.
They were inside the barrier of the Eye of Truth, and Qian Huan could not eavesdrop on the conversation inside, but Bai Ziqi was still very cautious.
The Heavenly Palace army was hurrying on their way, and right in front of them was an open field. The wheat seedlings were green and lush at this season, with farmhouses dotted among them, and there were houses by the stream not far away.
Suddenly, several shrill trumpets sounded in front, like hundreds of ghosts crying at night.
A large army rushed out of the villages and forests, rushing towards the Tiangong team like a tide. They mercilessly trampled on the wheat fields they had cultivated not long ago, their eyes filled with deep hatred for the invaders.
The army was so huge that there was no end in sight.
The Tiangong team looked around, but all they saw were ferocious ghost masks.
Several tribal leaders under Bai Ziqi were trying hard to cheer up their men, but in fact they were secretly worried themselves.
Can a team of less than a thousand people really withstand the impact of hundreds of thousands of dead souls?
If this team had not fought with the Yakshas for a long time in the previous fantasy world and had not gained courage and experience, any regular army would have been frightened and thrown away their weapons when faced with such a situation.
"These are the troops from the big city in the north." Bai Ziqi said to Miao Zhantian, "Their uniforms are different from those of ordinary ghosts."
As they were talking, a few powerful ghost soldiers from the opposite camp suddenly grabbed their companions and sucked them in!
The faint soul fire was sucked into their stomachs.
Within two or three breaths, their bodies began to grow larger.
These things can actually strengthen themselves by devouring their own kind!
In a blink of an eye, the ghost soldiers devoured seventeen or eighteen of their companions. Their average height was over ten feet. Although their shapes were different, some were skinny, some had bulging muscles, but they all exuded an aura of "I'm not easy to mess with" all over their bodies.
They transformed from ghost soldiers into ghost generals.
The short ghost general who rushed in the front immediately knocked away a large group of heavenly soldiers.
Everyone in the Heavenly Palace felt a sinking feeling in their hearts.
The number of ordinary ghost soldiers is huge, and it is already difficult enough to fight them, but now they can even upgrade on the spot!
And just as everyone expected, they rushed into the barrier of the Eye of Truth and rushed forward. Although the purple light was so fierce that it made them steam and seem to melt into water, they finally held on!
They injured several people, but did not melt into water under the illumination of the Eye of Truth!
This was a terrible signal for Miaozhantian and the Tiangong team, meaning that Qianhuan had once again cracked Miaozhantian's rules!
If the two powerful men want to continue playing like this, Miao Zhantian must increase his investment.
This strange battle of laws will soon turn into a battle of back and forth, with the intensity escalating until one side can no longer bear it.
There is no doubt that Miao Zhantian suffered more.
In order to destroy these miscellaneous ghost armies, is it necessary to consume a huge amount of divine power?
Every god is an expert at calculating. In such a tug-of-war, being constantly worn down by an invisible opponent is really not worth it.
As time goes on, the probability of failure increases.
"That old thing Qian Huan, he's just not going to show up, right?" He also understood that this old thing just wanted to hide behind the scenes, secretly plotting against him. Miao Zhantian sneered, "Okay, then don't come out, watch me blow its world to pieces!"
Miao Zhantian had previously scanned the entire island with the Eye of Truth and basically knew where the ghosts gathered: "The ghosts of Silver Pearl Island have finally been mobilized, and we can start taking action."
He took out an iron lotus platform from somewhere, put the candle inside aside, and asked Bai Ziqi: "Do you know why I borrowed this body from Saint Lingxu?"
Bai Ziqi could only shake his head to indicate that he didn't know.
For the ancients thousands of years ago, it was a great achievement for them to just hear the name.
"Many, many years ago, before Qian Huan became a true immortal, he suffered a small loss at the hands of True Lord Cang Xi."
At first glance, what he held in his hand was just an ordinary lotus stand lamp. The lotus petals looked lifelike, and there were dozens of holes inside the lamp, but there were only about twenty iron lotus seeds. One of them was dark purple in color, but it could not be seen without a close look.
Bai Ziqi knew that He was about to cast a spell, so he quickly asked a question: "God, how did Mi Tian defeat Qian Huan Zhenren back then?"
"I didn't see it myself, but Mitian told me afterwards that we must force it out of its hiding place, otherwise there is no way to catch it."
Miaozhantian held the lotus lamp in his hands and muttered something, as if he was reciting a very long and complicated mantra.
With his level of cultivation, within twenty breaths, he actually began to sweat slightly on his forehead.
Bai Ziqi knew that this was probably some big move that was being prepared. In the past, Miao Zhantian had always performed his magic with ease, not with such solemnity.
The lamp gradually turned red, and people nearby could feel the heat wave coming towards them. Even Bai Ziqi took five steps back, otherwise his hair would be singed first.
"Retreat quickly!" He quickly ordered, "Everyone retreat five feet away!"
This order was not easy to execute because the place where everyone was standing was so small and the ghost soldiers and generals outside the barrier were still trying to advance.
The iron lotus seeds in the cup floated slightly and rolled around inside the cup, just like meatballs tumbling in boiling soup. Every time they rolled, the light and heat increased by one point.
After another ten breaths, the iron lotus seeds also turned bright red, as if they were being refined in a steel furnace.
After ten breaths, people could no longer look directly at them, because they emitted an incomparably dazzling white light, far brighter than the sun in the sky.
The lotus itself must have a barrier that isolates the light and heat inside, but everyone still feels that the temperature nearby is rising rapidly, and it will enter the hottest days of summer in less than ten seconds.
It is indeed impossible for anyone to stand within five feet of Master Zang Xi.
Bai Shi, Bai Shiqi and others looked at each other in shock because they actually smelled a strange burnt fragrance.
Miaozhantian's mantra came to an abrupt end, and he himself disappeared from the spot.
In the sky, the Eye of Truth suddenly shone brightly.
Bai Ziqi subconsciously looked up and found that the Eye of Truth had risen to a height of thousands of feet, almost turning into a star in the sky, and was basically invisible from the ground.
He hurried to look at the sand table.
Fortunately, the image on the sand table is very clear:
Zhenjun Zangxi, who is possessed by Miaozhantian, is standing right behind the Eye of Truth!
He just stood in mid-air, firmly on the sky, holding the lamp with both hands as if he had exerted a tremendous amount of strength.
It was as if He was holding not a lamp but an entire mountain in His hand.
Then He opened His eyes, raised the lamp solemnly, and splashed it into the Eye of Truth—
More than a dozen iron lotus seeds were poured out, and only a few were left.
They penetrated the shadow of the Eye of Truth and were stained with rich golden and purple light, then fell freely.
During this process, they tumble and grow in size.
Grow tenfold, a hundredfold, a thousandfold!
"The divine fire falls from the sky!"
Each iron lotus seed fell to a different place, but their overall target was the entire Silver Pearl Island!
Bai Ziqi looked at the several large boxes around him.
This is a treasure chest containing black crystals, and six of them are empty.
This magical power alone almost consumed all the high-quality black crystals that Wu Shidao had obtained from the Xianguang Cave.
Not to mention that everyone in the Heavenly Palace was shocked. Bai Ziqi was the Cloud Envoy of the Heavenly Palace, and he usually spent black crystals lavishly to a degree that was far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. However, even he had never seen such a lavish usage.
Tens of thousands of kilograms of top-grade black crystals could keep the entire Upper Beijia City running in an orderly manner for a long time. But in Miao Zhantian's hands, it could only support one magical power!
How powerful is the divine fire falling from the sky this time?
A figure flashed, and Miao Zhantian appeared beside Bai Ziqi again, still holding the lantern in his hand.
There were still a few lotus seeds left in the iron lotus stand, including the purple one.
Bai Ziqi noticed that both of his palms were burned, black and red. The black part was the charred flesh, and the red part was the large blood blisters. There were also red threads moving around the wounds.
Fire poison is hard to eliminate.
It was unbelievable. With the power of Lingxu, a former righteous god and a great ancient immortal, he was able to drive these dozen iron lotus seeds, but he was still hurt like this?
Immortals have indestructible bodies of diamond, and the bodies of true immortals are far tougher than theirs.
Miao Zhantian noticed his gaze, and placed his palm on the Iron Lotus Lamp, while speaking:
"Tens of thousands of years ago, a huge star fell into the universe. The explosion caused by the impact destroyed several mountain ranges and created a huge deep pit in its place. Later, seawater poured in and became the Frost Sea that stretches between Beijia and the northern part of Mouguo today. After this collision, the star itself was consumed, leaving only a few debris, which are the hardest fragments of its core. These fragments absorbed amazing energy when they collided with this world, and have been stored inside without releasing it. In fact, they drilled into the center of the earth and were tempered by the earth's fire for tens of thousands of years. The power of heaven and earth contained in them is so great that even Master Zang Xi has to be extremely careful when using them."
Bai Ziqi saw that a little red light from his palm was transmitted into the Iron Lotus Lantern, and then disappeared.
Ten breaths later, he turned his palm over, and the flowing fire poison was removed, and the wound healed at an astonishing speed.
In just a dozen breaths, the flesh and blood healed and the skin returned to normal.
The immortal's recovery ability is indeed well-deserved.
