448 Six-Star Fragment
There was indeed an abyssal passage in Ghost Face Valley, and there was a world lock.
After Lu Qing personally descended and retrieved the power of the world lock’s origin, he did not have much time left to revive.
At first, he was thinking that if he had the time, he could use the teleportation function to go to the South and fight with the Chu people.
However, there was not enough time. If the Yan and Qi Alliance Army in Wu State wanted to launch an attack on the Chu army, the preparation time needed was not something that could be done in a few hours.
It was not impossible for Lu Qing to temporarily organize a team of elite cultivators and launch a surprise attack with him leading the team. However, he was worried that his resurrection time would end halfway through the battle. That would be too awkward.
He thought about it and decided to forget it.
After the unconditional surrender of the Wei, the Yan and Qi Alliance within the territory of the Wu would no longer be a threat from the North. It would not be a big problem for them to face Chu.
When the time for resurrection was almost over, Lu Qing returned to the Feiyun state. He estimated his current situation and decided to take a look at the high-level time fragment.
Of course, this so-called high level was only a 6-star Fragment.
So far, Lu Qing had only opened up fragments that were five-star and below to the public. He could go in and fight for the five-star Fragments himself. When LAN nuo Xing was still in the Feiyun state, he could have gone in and dealt with them. Over at Qi, Weiyun would occasionally try out some of the five-star Fragments.
Occasionally, even if nascent soul cultivators were to deal with the fragments, they would usually organize a team of late-stage nascent soul cultivators.
The main reason why these high-level cultivators were dealing with the five-star Fragment was to ensure the success rate and safety. Otherwise, if they didn’t solve a fragment, not only would they lose the time to delay the invasion of the evil spirits, but they would also lose a few nascent soul cultivators. That would be too much of a loss.
It was the same reason why he did not touch the six-star time fragment. A six-Star Fragment required a team of Dharma adepts to deal with. This was not something that could be done by a single Dharma adepts-unless the fragment itself only needed one person.
As for Lu Qing, he only had LAN nuo Xing and Wei Yun as his Dharma idols.
To be honest, Lu Qing was not very confident in their abilities.
Wei Yun might be slightly better off, but Raynor would not be able to. Lu Qing was not at ease with the two of them even if they were to form a team, let alone deal with some six-Star Fragments alone.
Even Lu Qing, who was much stronger, was not very willing to take on a 6-star time fragment alone without being very confident.
However, he could give it a try now.
His strength had grown over the past ten years, mainly due to the various resources and the support of the system. Right now, in terms of cultivation, he was already at the late Dharma stage. With the Scripture of supremacy and the primordial saintly being, he believed that his combat strength had almost reached the top of the Dharma plane.
Under such circumstances, even if he was alone, he should have a great deal of confidence in challenging a six-star time fragment.
At the very least, it would not be too much of a problem for him to retreat in one piece.
There were quite a few six-star time fragments in the Feiyun state.
The location that Lu Qing had chosen was in Sishui County, which was to the South. This was the closest one.
Lu Qing quickly understood the general situation of this place after he entered this period of time where he made backups.
The situation of this shard was actually related to the so-called Yuyan sect. The main character was still the young white sword immortal, Yan Luo.
However, during this period of time, Yuyan sect had already been completely destroyed. According to the timeline, it should be after the five-star Fragment that Lu Qing had experienced.
He still remembered that in the fragments of the ‘calamity of Yuyan sect’, Yan Luo had been captured by the elders controlled by the evil spirits and put on trial.
Back then, when he had entered that time fragment, Lu Qing’s strength had been overwhelming in the entire fragment. He had killed the biggest enemy of the entire fragment, which was the few abyssal evil spirits. After that, he was mainly focused on the history of the immemorial period.
As for what the original ending of the fragment of time would have been without Lu Qing, he had not really investigated it.
But without a doubt, Yan Luo was definitely fine. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be the White sword immortal behind him, and there wouldn’t be the current situation.
Looking back at the time fragment, white sword immortal and the others were clearly fleeing for their lives, and there were many people following them.
A portion of these people were cultivators from Yuyan sect. Lu Qing had seen their attire before. However, there were even more people of all kinds. These people looked like a group of escapees, or perhaps they had gathered from different places.
At the same time, Lu Qing had also detected that a large group of sinister Devils was chasing after them.
The entire escapees were clearly in a desperate situation. They couldn’t outrun the demons that were chasing them. When they were about to be caught, these human cultivators decided to defend themselves and set up arrays.
However, to Lu Qing, they did not stand a chance.
Among this group of escapees, the most powerful one was a Dharma adept that Lu Qing had never seen. Yan Luo would become the White sword immortal in the future, but at this time, he was still far from the Dharma plane, let alone the true immortal.
However, there were four Dharma plane demons in the group. Moreover, the overall number was more than the number of refugees.
This was practically a desperate battle.
There was no need for more information. Lu Qing could roughly guess that the original ending of this time fragment was that most of the escapees would be killed in the end. Then, white sword immortal would bring along a small number of people, or he would simply survive alone.
This white sword immortal Tao Wu was truly pitiful. No matter how glorious he would be in the future, even becoming one of the 21 Immortals of the ancient times, this childhood of his, where his sect was destroyed, and almost all his friends and family died, would probably be an indelible memory in his heart.
After Lu Qing’s careful investigation, there should not be anything else that could be taken advantage of in this time fragment. It should not contain any special secrets either. It was just the scene of a serious battle.
His goal was probably to get rid of all the demons in the Shard before the number of casualties of the escapees under Yan Luo’s protection reached a certain limit.
Pure fighting.
Then there was nothing to be said.
Although Lu Qing felt that it would not be too much of a problem for him to fight against the three Dharma adepts, who were of a relatively normal level, by himself, he did not feel overconfident.
He didn’t rush up alone, but first appeared in front of Yan Luo and the human cultivators.
His arrival had raised quite a bit of vigilance. At the same time, white sword deity did not know Lu Qing in this timeline.
In this fragment of time, Lu Qing did not have the mood to continue talking nonsense with Yan Luoduo.
Anyway, no matter how good their relationship was, after this time fragment, Yan Luo would not remember him. And here, Yan Luo was the main character. In the entire time fragment, the person who must not die was him.
If he died, he would lead the entire time fragment to a situation worse than the original ending in history. This was equivalent to white sword immortal, who was supposed to be one of the most important pillars of the future human camp, dying prematurely.
According to Lu Qing’s estimation, once Yan Luo died, even if he killed all the sinister Devils here, he would be judged to have failed.
Then, the overall idea was more or less clear.
First of all, Yan Luo can not die, and secondly, the number of refugees here should be reduced to the minimum. Kill all the demons.
Lu Qing had also thought of what he should do after combining these situations.
First, he told her about the fact that there were powerful and large numbers of evil spirits chasing after them, and at the same time, he expressed his willingness to help defend.
Even though Lu Qing had said so, the escapees did not show any signs of joy. Instead, they were very wary.
Even though Lu Qing was clearly a human and should be an ally, they were still very cold. Even though they did not attack him immediately, they had clearly ordered him not to get close to the newly set up formation.
This made Lu Qing feel a little stunned.
You’re already in a desperate situation. Why are you still rejecting someone’s help?
However, Lu Qing had a rough idea of what was going on from the other party’s words.
The current period should be the ‘period of collapse’ that Lu Qing had previously defined. During this period, the human front line was lost very quickly. It was almost a complete defeat. Despair filled the entire human society.
In this state of despair, resistance and escape were the main themes. However, there were still a considerable number of people who believed that there was no point in continuing to escape, and that human society would eventually perish in the hands of gods and demons. It was impossible for the cultivators to fight against these powerful foreign creatures.
With such a mindset, coupled with the fact that there were a considerable number of evil spirits who had parasitic divine souls or the means to bewitch people, it was natural that many people would join the enemy.
Some of these people had taken the initiative to accept the transformation and become demons, while many of them had their will corroded and became the lapdogs of the demons.
But regardless of the reason, after becoming the minions of the demons, these people were quite destructive to the rejuvenation of mankind.
In this era, accepting a stranger with no clear background with the thought that they were of the same kind was courting death.
Lu Qing expressed that he completely understood what the other party was thinking.
Since it was difficult to dispel the other party’s wariness within a short period of time, Lu Qing suggested that he could hide at the side and wait for the sinister Devils to arrive and attack the formation. Then, he could take the opportunity to attack and deal with the few sinister Devils at the Dharma plane.
At the same time, they requested that the escapees did not hit the wrong person. On the other hand, he also hoped that the only Dharma adept among the escapees would be able to cooperate with him when he came out. He didn’t need to take the initiative to attack. He just needed to activate the power of the formation and restrain it.
The other party agreed to this request without hesitation.
After all, it was not that they did not want help. They were just worried about Lu Qing’s position.
……
Not long after, the demons arrived.
Most of the demons who were chasing after the humans were white ghouls.
According to the information that Lu Qing had obtained, the abyss was divided into many different regions. In these different regions, there were also different kinds of evil demon races.
However, most of the White ghouls appeared in the North of the entire cultivation world, which was the later Yan Kingdom. The corresponding abyssal world was called the ‘extreme cold ice field’, which was the hometown of the White ghouls.
In ancient times, the North wasn’t completely covered in ice and snow. Although the overall climate was cold, under the great power of cultivators, the vast area that was equivalent to the later North of the Xue state was actually transformed into a very pleasant place. A large number of humans lived there.
Later on, a small world called the ‘ice and snow region’ merged into the main world and appeared in the North. Thus, the northern end of the world became extremely cold. Even so, the native creatures of the ice and snow region, the snow maidens, had a very gentle attitude towards humans, and the relationship between the two sides was very harmonious.
The snow maidens ‘city of Everwinter became the largest city in the North. Humans and snow maidens lived together in the city, and there were many specialties from the land of ice and snow. Although the weather was cold, it was very developed. People were protected by spells, so the cold did not affect them too much.
On the other hand, this was due to the numerous abyssal passages that appeared in the North that connected to the abyssal ‘extreme frost icy Plains’.
The city of Everwinter was destroyed, and a large number of white ghouls rushed South like a flood. In the timeline of this time fragment, the White ghouls had already reached the Feiyun state’s periphery.
At present, most of the evil demons pursuing him were white ghosts. However, in terms of species, they were much more complicated than the monsters he had encountered in the ‘South white ghost’.
The White ghouls in the later generations had black skin covered with a layer of white fur, like white apes. They bared their bodies and held simple weapons.
Although these people looked the same, they were wearing all kinds of armor and had different weapons.
The four heads in the lead had a staff in one hand and six arms in the other, each holding a large blade. One of them was covered in a strange armor, looking like a white-haired ape driving a transformer. The last one had two pairs of ugly wings on its back and a two-headed sword in its hand.
After they arrived, the four Dharma plane white ghouls let out a roar at the same time. The large number of evil spirits that followed them immediately rushed towards the formation set up by Yan Luo and the others like a tide!
