Chapter 461: Chapter 49: The Battlefield Ghost Hits the Wall, Liu Tianning’s Preaching (6K)_2

Every part of the soul-binding grass man was filled with the swirling forces of Yin Five Elements: hands, elbows, knees, head, shoulders...

Each part, when encountering a ghost, could absorb and bind the soul within.

Zhao Xing’s soul-binding grass man had reached the mid-level Nine Revolutions, capable of binding nine ghosts into its body.

Although there were only a thousand grass men, they were more than sufficient to deal with over two thousand hidden ghosts, inherently superior!

Combined with the Yin Wind of Evil, it was like trapping a dog in a closed door.

...

Thirty miles away from the northern plantation area, there was an altar on a hill.

This group of ghosts was controlled by Qi Yuanzi.

At this moment, he suddenly felt alarmed, discovering numerous talismans on the altar self-igniting, and the paper figures placed on the altar suddenly collapsing.

"Not good!"

Qi Yuanzi immediately sensed something was wrong.

"Protector, what’s happening?" Morick also detected the anomaly, but, as he was not the spellcaster, he was unaware of the specifics.

Morick held a ghost flag and initially intended to let Qi Yuanzi probe; if the situation seemed favorable, he would turn the surprise attack into a full-scale assault.

Because this ghost flag contained five thousand ghost soldiers and eight hundred ghost generals.

"We’ve been discovered!" Qi Yuanzi’s expression was full of surprise, "There is an expert in Tonghuo City. The ghosts I sent were captured!"

Qi Yuanzi had possessed one of the minor ghosts and could see the situation ahead.

He saw teams of grass men approaching from all directions, charging at his ghost warriors.

Where they passed, the eighth-grade ghost warriors had no resistance; only the seventh-rank minor ghosts, third-rank ghosts, first-rank ghosts, second-rank ghosts, and fifth-rank ghosts could briefly hold them off.

"This is... Grassman Skill? Soul-binding grass man?" Qi Yuanzi was extremely astonished, "Someone could practice Grassman Skill to this extent?"

"Boom!" Qi Yuanzi controlled the minor ghost to attack a grass man in front, meeting head-on.

The soul-binding grass man was knocked back three meters, but the minor ghost Qi Yuanzi possessed lost part of its soul power, while the grass man remained standing firm.

"Hiss, it’s combined with the Giant Shield Grassman, this is not purely a soul-binding grass man."

Qi Yuanzi, experienced as he was, immediately recognized the extraordinary nature of the Grassman Skill.

"Retreat!"

Qi Yuanzi instantly ordered a retreat, knowing the surprise attack plan had failed.

"You’ve stomped on a lot of my seedlings, and now you want to run?"

Zhao Xing, using the Heavenly Eye, overlooked the scene below and naturally noticed the five formidable ghost generals.

He immediately pointed his finger.

"Woo~"

The Yin Wind of Evil swept past the minor ghost.

"Sizzle~"

The minor ghost began to emit smoke, crying out in agony.

"Buzz~"

Qi Yuanzi felt a tremor in his heart, losing control over the ghosts ahead.

"Morick, we need to retreat." Qi Yuanzi glanced in the direction of Tonghuo City, "There is an expert over there."

"An expert?" Morick was immediately startled. After all, Qi Yuanzi was a sixth-rank; for him to say there was an expert?

"Alright, let’s retreat." Morick put away the ghost flag, planning to escape with Qi Yuanzi.

"Wait!" Qi Yuanzi suddenly stopped him. "I anticipate this person will pursue us here. Let me set up an array to cover our tracks first."

.....

Fifteen minutes later, a flying boat descended in the northern plantation area, and Han Bing hurried over with a team of priests.

The ghosts who had lost control were immediately powerless and surrounded and exterminated.

"Han Bing, stay here and assess the damage."

"Yes."

Han Bing had seen the soul-binding grass men before and knew Zhao Xing’s Grassman Skill was extraordinary. He quickly led everyone to clean up the aftermath.

Zhao Xing stepped onto the cloud and pursued in the direction of Qi Yuanzi.

Fifteen minutes later.

"Swoosh~"

Zhao Xing appeared on a hill, scanning the surroundings with the Heavenly Eye Skill.

"Creak~"

Suddenly, a skeleton head flew up from the ground, heading straight for Zhao Xing’s face.

"Such a petty trick, you dare show off in front of me!"

With a wave of his hand, the Yin Wind of Evil instantly destroyed the skeleton head.

"Bang bang bang bang bang bang!"

At this moment, a series of explosions suddenly sounded on the hill, with numerous skeletal remains exploding and the blast carrying a dense corpse poison, corroding Zhao Xing.

If it were a priest, they might not have been able to defend against the traps of the Corpse Explosive Poison Absolute Array.

But Zhao Xing was the Minister of Agriculture, capable of commanding the wind and rain. He easily recognized the array and, with a simple blow, rendered Qi Yuanzi’s setup futile.

"This must be a technique of the Xuantian Sect. The soul-controlling mages of the Holy Spirit Royal Court couldn’t possibly know this spell." Zhao Xing’s eyes gleamed as he pinched his fingers to calculate Qi Yuanzi’s position with the Five-Finger Destiny, but the opponent seemed formidable, and after three seconds of calculation, Zhao Xing couldn’t get an accurate location.

"Forget it, I’ll spare your life for now." Unfortunately, he didn’t have a turtle shell or the Purple Gold Ancient Coin and Hongyun Coin with him.

If he had those two items, supplemented with the Five-Finger Destiny for calculation, he would surely have found the enemy’s escape route, even their origins.

Swoosh~

Zhao Xing flew towards Tonghuo City.

.....

"My setup didn’t work." On the way back to Luo Ya City, Qi Yuanzi said to Morick, "The other side seemed knowledgeable, seeing through my setup at a glance. Interesting, that person is actually a Military Minister of Agriculture Officer?"

"A Military Minister of Agriculture Officer? A Military Minister of Agriculture Officer of Great Zhou, and he knows such spells?" Morick was utterly surprised.

"This person is different, he knows the soul-binding Grassman Technique and a very powerful tracking spell, and his knowledge is extraordinary." Qi Yuanzi said, "This time, it was a miscalculation."

The two thousand ghosts originally intended to damage the supplies of Tonghuo City, but now it was a total loss.

"If there’s a chance in the future, I must meet this person again!"

....

Tonghuo City.

"What are the losses?" Zhao Xing asked.

"Three people dead, sixteen seriously injured." Han Bing replied, "The northern plantation area lost about six thousand seedlings, three thousand one hundred mature plants. The reduction in yield is more than thirty thousand pounds, but the damage is not too serious and can be remedied."
