I Have A City In An Alternate World-Chapter 4164 - : The ritual and the battle (1)
Chapter 4164: The ritual and the battle (1)
In the dense forest, Tang Zhen brought the ghoul Hans and was breaking through the blockade of the plant spirits.
The vines that grew in the forest were extremely aggressive and would follow the vibrating airflow to launch a sudden attack.
This was not a man-eating plant, but a real demon that could cause fatal damage.
Fortunately, corpse ghosts were invulnerable, and Tang Zhen could shield this kind of attack. Therefore, he was able to travel smoothly after landing.
There were also many tall monsters with four arms and two heads that looked like giant bears, waving their swords and attacking.
Encountering such a monster, a fierce battle was inevitable.
...
Tang Zhen was not the only one who was attacked. The other members of the group were also under attack. The forest was like a Green Hell that was trying to devour all the outsiders.
The party members did not dare to be careless. They were on full alert and were constantly closing in on each other as they fought.
After a round of fighting, the members finally gathered together. Fortunately, the casualties were not too great.

When he was observing from the sky, he had already analyzed and judged that a mountain peak was his target.
There was a high possibility that the temple was located in the mountain.
After confirming the direction, the group quickly moved forward and soon arrived at the foot of the mountain.
When they got closer, they found a large number of statues at the foot of the mountain. The surface was covered with moss, and they were neatly arranged like an Army.
A rough estimate would put it at least 40000 to 50000.
Someone in the team was curious and went up to give it a kick, only to find that there was a hidden mystery in the ancient statue.
Inside each statue, there was a decayed skeleton. It was very likely that they had been sealed in it when they were alive.
This strange method made everyone secretly vigilant, suspecting that it was likely some kind of evil tool.
be careful and don’t touch the statues. Instead, go up the stairs.
After walking for a long time, they finally saw an ancient building, built with its back against a cliff.
A huge god statue revealed a ferocious expression as it watched the slowly approaching outsiders.
Although one couldn’t judge good or evil from its appearance, the statue in front of them was definitely not a good one.
In front of the statue was a black stone coffin with mysterious runes carved on its surface.
There were more than 20 stone tablets on both sides of the road. All kinds of characters were carved on them, and there were also some ancient and strange symbols.
The mysterious scholars in the team immediately went forward and tried to decipher the content on the stone tablet.
It didn’t take long before the results were out.
He exchanged a few words with his employer’s guard, who nodded and came before a group of hired cultivation practitioners.
“Please help us capture the demonic beasts and fill the stone coffin with their blood.”
The employer’s request was not excessive, and the hired cultivators had no reason to refuse, so they scattered to find a suitable target.
In the following time, the cultivators captured demon beasts one after another and dragged them over.
He pulled it in front of the black coffin, cut its neck, and let out its blood. Then, he continued to look for the next one.
The stone coffin was not small, and it would take a lot of time to fill it with blood.
After killing nearly a hundred demonic beasts, he had finally met the basic requirements. The next step of the ritual was to be carried out.
The employer, who had never revealed his true appearance, took off the fur that was wrapped around his body and revealed his true appearance in public for the first time.
From her figure and posture, it was obvious that she was a woman, wearing a Golden Mask.
The woman walked to the stone coffin and took off all her clothes, revealing a graceful body that would make one’s imagination run wild.
Still wearing the mask, he flipped over and entered the stone coffin.
The bright red and sticky blood stained her snow-white skin, making people feel unusually piercing.
Her guard walked over, lifted the coffin lid, and closed it back up.
A servant opened the package, which contained all kinds of forbidden items, and placed them on the table in front of the stone coffin.
The mysterious scholar in the team began to chant an incantation, and the runes on the surface of the sarcophagus kept flashing.
The surrounding crowd had a serious expression. They could feel the arrival of a mysterious power. The statue on the cliff seemed to come to life and revealed an evil smile.
Faint murmurs kept ringing in his ears.
Although the scene was eerie, it did not scare the crowd. As believers of evil gods, their cultivation process might be even more cruel and terrifying.
At this moment, a strange sound came from the foot of the mountain, as if something was breaking.
Then, everyone saw the pitch-black bones sealed in the statue break out of their shells.
Carrying stone knives and stone swords, they continued to surge upwards.
“Everyone, please guard the stone coffin!”
The employer’s guard looked at the crowd and gave another order. He himself stood guard in front of the stone coffin.
It was the same for the other guards and servants. When danger came, the first thing they had to do was protect their master.
it was time for the hired cultivators to play their role and block the monsters ‘attacks.
Ten times the reward was actually not easy to earn, and it would not work if he did not put in his best.
Everyone was already prepared. When the order was given, they had already gone to different areas of the square.
Everyone’s fighting style was different, so it was difficult to work together perfectly. It was better to fight on their own.
As long as they held the line of defense and did not let the monsters get close, it would be fine.
In the blink of an eye, the monster had already rushed up. Perhaps it was because it had received the blessing of divine power, but the decayed bones became as hard as iron.
A battle began just like that, accompanied by howls and sneers. The bones around the square scattered in all directions.
As expected of the top mercenaries of the underground black market, every one of them had an extraordinary performance and easily blocked the monsters that came.
However, it didn’t take long for a black shadow to appear in the sky. It was a skeleton Bird Man wrapped in demonic Qi.
It let out a wail and surged over in an overwhelming manner.
The guards and servants guarding the stone coffin had no choice but to start fighting.
The square was in a mess. There were crazy monsters everywhere, and broken bones were piled up on the ground.
The ferocious god statues on the cliff were like spectators watching a show, coldly watching the crowd fight to the death with the monsters.
Other than the skeletal monsters, there were also many strange and ferocious demons that were attacking fearlessly.
It was as if everyone’s actions had violated some kind of taboo, which triggered their monstrous anger.
In fact, everyone knew very well that the monster’s madness was obviously related to the employer’s ritual.
However, he couldn’t complain because of this. After all, he was earning this life-risking money.
This intense battle lasted for a full hour, and the number of monsters killed was uncountable.
The reason why the battle stopped was not because the monsters were afraid of a ceasefire, but because almost all of them had been killed by the cultivators.
Before this, everyone had noticed that this piece of land was more like an Island, and upon closer inspection, they could see the coastline.
Since it was an Island, its capacity was naturally limited, and it was impossible for the monsters to be endless.
After a tough battle, everyone was in a bad state. Three of the hired cultivators died in battle, and the rest were almost all injured.
the employer’s side had even more casualties, with more than a dozen dead, not even a complete body left.
As the battle ended, everyone immediately began to recuperate to avoid any more unexpected attacks.
They were all exhausted, and if they were to encounter a battle of the same level, it would be impossible for them to survive.
At the corner of the square, Tang Zhen was also covered in injuries.
Of course, this was only a disguise. With his strength and means, he could easily deal with a battle of this level.
Just as the others were recovering from their cultivation, Tang Zhen had his eyes on the three cultivators who had died in battle and ordered Hans to drag the bodies in front of him.
His actions attracted everyone’s attention, and their eyes were filled with vigilance and doubt.
Tang Zhen turned a blind eye to it. Instead, he continued to direct Hans to arrange the three corpses in an orderly manner.
Tang Zhen personally took action and dealt with the corpse.
Then, he collected the monster corpses and built them into a strange pattern that looked like a runic magic circle.
When everything was ready, Tang Zhen communicated with the God spirit and prepared to turn all three corpses into corpse ghosts.
When the onlookers saw this, they didn’t stop him from asking. Obviously, they all had their own thoughts.
As the divine might descended, the three corpses lying on the ground began to undergo strange changes that were visible to the naked eye.
Just when everyone thought that Tang Zhen was only cultivating ordinary ghouls, an unbelievable scene suddenly occurred.
