Chapter 748: Chapter 15 Preparing to Run Away_2

Wherever the white light passed, zombies, skeletons, ghosts, and evil spirits turned into ashes.

"Oh no, it’s the spell of an Immortal!"

"Retreat quickly!"

The Three Ghost Generals turned their horses and tried to flee, but it was too late as they were instantly hit by a beam of white light.

-289!

-321!

-333!

Three red numbers appeared instantly, but with the protection of their magic shields, they didn’t suffer too much damage.

However, the array in the sky seemed to have a will of its own, spreading toward the outer city while also focusing beams of white light on the Three Ghost Generals.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The Three Ghost Generals’ bodies smoked under the white light.

"Scatter!"

The Three Ghost Generals split into three directions and fled, but the white light pursued them relentlessly, determined to kill them.

The Three Ghost Generals were hit multiple times, the damage increasing with each strike. Their Netherworld Soul Iron Armor even caught fire.

The white light only stopped when it reached the walls of Soul Suppressing Pass, and the sound of the array dissipating slowly ceased.

When the white light finally stopped, the area between the inner and outer city walls within Soul Suppressing Pass was left in chaos, with burning ashes of corpses everywhere.

Even the massive floating corpse turned into a pile of charred bones clinging to the wall under the dense white light.

Only the Three Ghost Generals were still standing, barely.

Burned all over, with their blood volume almost depleted, they managed to survive because they had scattered, diverting some of the fire.

Xiao Jie didn’t hesitate and commanded, "Kill!"

"Kill!" everyone roared in unison, and in an instant, hundreds of players leaped from the city walls, descending like rain.

They charged straight at the Three Ghost Generals.

Secret Technique—Azure Dragon Descent!

Secret Technique—Wind Roll Cloud!

Secret Technique—White Rainbow Piercing the Sun!

All sorts of ultimate moves were launched in a flurry, taking advantage of this rare opportunity to strike down the enemy.

Everyone was vying to be the first, each fighting valiantly.

In an instant, the Three Ghost Generals were hacked to pieces.

"Haha, we won!"

"We won!" The hall erupted in cheers as the Three Ghost Generals were defeated.

Outside Soul Suppressing Pass, Eternal Damnation stared at the walls, stunned—what had just happened?

The bright white light that had washed over the area was terrifying.

He had witnessed the entire undead army on City Head Mountain being annihilated and felt relieved that he didn’t go in, otherwise he would have faced the same fate, given that he was now a member of the Netherworld Clan.

"Go up and take a look," the Netherworld Ghost King suddenly said.

Eternal Damnation responded and used his qinggong to fly up the city wall, finding the area inside void of any undead, completely wiped out.

All that remained were charred bones and ashes, a devastating sight.

However, Soul Suppressing Pass itself was also in ruins; most buildings were destroyed, the defending troops heavily injured or dead, with few survivors in the inner city.

He saw a figure emerge from the inn and leap towards the inner city after a brief glance.

Eternal Damnation jumped down from the city wall to quickly report the situation inside.

The Netherworld Ghost King nodded, unsurprised, "Hmph, just as expected. Now that the Immortal Prohibition has been exhausted, there will be no further threat for now. Good, it’s time to launch the attack!"

There were still plenty of undead outside the city, and the Netherworld army brought by the Netherworld Ghost King was numerous as well.

With one command from the Netherworld Ghost King, they surged towards the city.

Eternal Damnation hesitated for a moment before following.

Inside the inner city, there were cheers. Xiao Jie saw Xia Yi the Unrivaled arriving through the air.

"Commander, the situation is dire. More undead are flooding into the city," Xia Yi the Unrivaled warned as he landed.

Xiao Jie thought, "It was never going to be that simple."

"Cheng Xian, quickly deal with the bodies of the Ghost Generals. Everyone, prepare to retreat."

Everyone was stunned at these words.

Hidden Dragon Do Not Use exclaimed, "Commander, are we not fighting anymore? We’re so close..."

Xiao Jie shook his head, "We can’t. We’re already out of resources. We’ve used most of our ultimate moves and ran out of gunpowder and kerosene.

If the Netherworld Ghost King himself takes action, we can only flee. After all, he’s a Level 54 Boss-level Boss.

But we might still stand a chance. However, we must prepare for the worst. Everyone, get ready to retreat."

With that, Xiao Jie rushed to the City Lord Mansion.

The jade plate was completely dark, without any glow, clearly unusable now.

The bronze ancient mirror had also fallen.

Xiao Jie clicked on it with his mouse but found it uncollectible.

"Old General, where is the magic treasure?"

The old captain, looking relieved, replied, "In a hurry? The battle isn’t over yet." He then picked up the bronze ancient mirror.

Xiao Jie said, "Come on, we agreed that if I held on for half an hour, you’d give me the magic treasure. Hurry, with the magic treasure, I can continue resisting the Ghost King. Without it, how can we, with our flesh and blood, stand a chance?

If you don’t give it, we’ll retreat right now."

The old captain gritted his teeth and reluctantly said, "All right, take it. Just don’t lose your nerve, young friend."

He solemnly handed over the bronze ancient mirror.

[System Prompt: You received the task reward [Yin Yang Soul Suppressing Mirror]

Nice!

Xiao Jie felt assured. With this, it wasn’t a total loss today, even if Soul Suppressing Pass couldn’t be held. At least this trip wasn’t in vain.

"Old General, I’ll take my men to the camp now. Take care."

With that, he left the City Lord Mansion.

Strangely, there was no City Lord in the mansion, and though the old captain was only a captain, he seemed to be in charge of defending the city.

But there was no time to think about that now.

He left the City Lord Mansion and went straight to the inner city wall to join the other players.

The inner city gate was broken; they couldn’t risk getting trapped inside. The players formed ranks on the square outside, ready to flee at any moment.

"Commander, do we retreat?"

"Not yet. Have your men fall back a bit and be ready to run."

Xiao Jie stayed behind alone. He was gambling that the plot wouldn’t really make them fight the Ghost King.

Generally, if a game gives players a countdown defense time, it means there will be a subsequent plot if they hold out.

Although this game is unique, years of gaming experience told him there would surely be a turnaround.

They needed to be ready to run just in case.

The massive undead army was approaching the city.

Xiao Jie’s heart pounded as he kept watch for any changes.

(Damn, when will the next part come? Is there really no turnaround?)

Finally, the Netherworld Ghost King arrived at the inner city walls with his army.

Ready-to-bolt players stood in the distance, while Xiao Jie and the NPCs stood on the walls.

"Mortals, your resistance is futile. Join my ranks and become my subjects. All things perish, only death is eternal."

Suddenly, a voice echoed from the sky.

"It’s been thousands of years, and you’re still the same old skeleton talking nonsense."

An Immortal Crane descended from the sky, with a man in green robes sitting cross-legged on it. A Taoist with a handsome face, he floated mid-air, radiating spiritual power visible to the naked eye.

Master Qingfeng (Xuanxu Palace host): Level 55 sect leader. Life Value 4800!

Thank goodness, he’s here! Xiao Jie breathed a sigh of relief.

A Level 55 sect leader was even higher than the Level 54 Boss-level Boss.

But is one person enough?

"Hey, aren’t you—Xuanxuzi’s apprentice?"

"Hahaha, old skeleton, you have a good memory. You still remember me after all these years."
