Chaos, crisis

Chapter 339 Chaos, crisis

Human nature can be described as a mess.

Among the five realms, except for the sparsely populated Beihai, the remaining four realms fell into war almost at the same time.

The deacons and elders of Tianji Pavilion who had been in contact with the "sample" before had already unknowingly spread the metal minerals on those "sample" to all parts of Shangyuan.

After dormant for a new year, Qiqi broke out.

Like a crazy virus, at the beginning, the mortal old man with relatively weak physique and resistance suddenly mutated and started killing among the crowd.

And after being wounded and infected, those who survived by luck also mutated, turning into monsters who only knew how to kill.

In this way, one pass ten, ten pass one hundred...

Although the reaction speed of Tianji Pavilion and the major forces is already quite terrifying, the situation is still in great chaos. Except for a very small number of people, more people and cultivators did not even know what happened when they died. what.

Wu Tie, Imperial Palace, Imperial Study Room.

Huai Su's eyes were bloodshot, and his expression was extremely haggard.

"Your Majesty, Wu Tie's situation is already a blessing in misfortune."

Xu Tian was at the door, putting away the news from the Xiuyi Mansion in Daxia Capital, and heaved a long sigh.

"Most of the rest of the land had riots due to the epidemic. If you hadn't paid enough attention to isolating the infected people, the consequences would have been disastrous."

Hearing this, Huai Su's face suddenly changed.

Originally, she thought it was just an outbreak of the disease in Wutie territory.

But unexpectedly, the entire humane force in Shangyuan broke out.

"Xu Xiuyi, thank you very much."

Huai Su sighed softly, "At such a critical time, I'll trouble you to help guard Wu Tien."

"It doesn't matter, Wu Tie and Daxia are friendly countries, and I am also ordered by the Xiuyi Mansion, so don't worry about it, Your Majesty."

Xu Tian shook his head slowly, raised his eyelids, and asked, "So, what should His Majesty do with those infected people who haven't yet flared up?"

After all, he stared at the young emperor, wondering if she had enough size.

Judging from the current situation, those who have never been infected are hidden poison sacs. Once an outbreak occurs, it will definitely bring disaster to this weak country.

——In the entire Wutie Kingdom, there will be no more than three ranks of cultivators.And those who are infected, once they break out, most of them have destructive power above the fourth rank.

What's even more frightening is their number—tens of thousands.

According to the most ruthless and rational thinking, what should be done at this moment is to kill all dangers in their cradles.

Although bloody, although cruel, but both harm, whichever is less.

Sitting in the emperor's position, one day one would face such a cruel choice.

Huai Su naturally understood Xu Tian's meaning, and closed his eyes in great pain.

Xu Tian sighed.

Sure enough, for this young empress, it was still too cruel.

He shook his head, his voice was cold and firm, "If your majesty can't make up his mind, I can do it for you when the time comes - Xiuyi Mansion is supposed to do killing."

Huai Su was silent for a long time, then raised his head,

"Today, it hasn't reached this point yet, has it?"

"I have ordered that if any of the people infected with the disease show signs of mutation, they will be frozen immediately. Maybe it can be delayed until a cure is found..."

Xu Tian took a deep look at her, "Your Majesty, there is little hope."

Although he didn't know what caused the strange disease, but after listening to Deacon Xu's words "from outside the sky", Xu Tian knew that the disease might not be cured in a short time.

Even, there may not be a cure for that disease in the entire Shangyuan.

So there is a high probability that one day, Huai Su will be forced to have the blood of his people on his hands.

In fact, the latest order Xu Tian received from Xiuyi Mansion and Tianji Pavilion was to stabilize the situation in Wu Tie.

When Huai Su didn't come to his senses, he acted instead to cut off all future troubles.

It's just that it hasn't reached this point yet.

However, letting the empress know that there will be such a day in advance can be regarded as a rainy day.

After a long time, Huai Su stood up, "Xu Xiuyi, Wu Tie is my country, and I am the emperor of countless people - if that time really comes, I will do what I should do."

"When I ascend the throne, I should bear everything above the throne, including... sins."

Xu Tian was taken aback, and nodded slowly.

At that moment, he suddenly felt that the queen's frail back became taller.
.
As Xu Tian said, the situation in most places in Shangyuan is much more tragic than that in Wutie.

In the Western Regions, the dark red blood scattered the yellow sand into shocking colors.

Countless monks with compassionate faces set foot on every inch of the land, walked through the wind and sand, chanted scriptures, and Buddha Dharma bloomed in their hands, killing all the steel monsters they saw along the way.

They knew that just one day before, these bloody monsters were still devout believers in Buddhism. They ate fast and worshiped the Buddha, chanted scriptures, obeyed the precepts, and were merciful.

Now, it has become a monster that only knows how to kill.

In order to protect more living people, the monks have no choice but to kill—kill until the heart trembles, kills until numb, kills until a Buddha's heart is broken, and they can't stop.

Wherever it passed, there were corpses everywhere, including monsters and monks.

The entire land is like the Shura purgatory described in Buddhist scriptures.

The same is true for Zhongzhou.

Ferocious and tyrannical monsters of flesh and blood ran rampant between the heaven and the earth. Wherever they passed, mountains and rivers collapsed, cities were shattered, corpses littered the fields, and the roars and howls that shook the sky pierced through the sky.

Wang Chunyun's complexion was extremely gloomy, and he commanded Wuguang and other god-spirited monsters, and cooperated with Daxia's army to sprinkle flames and thunder under the sky to cleanse the world.

As the leader of the Conferred God Spirit Monsters, he naturally knew the true origins of those monsters and the source of their spread in the first place.

"damn it……"

Flying high in the sky, Wang Chunyun cursed with a cold face.

Humanity has never been afraid of war.

Whether it is facing heaven, shepherds, or ancient gods.

Countless history has told the world that these external threats will only be overthrown and destroyed forever under the fearlessness of human nature.

But this time, most people are numb.

Because the enemy is their former compatriots.

Even the Great Xia army, which was as cold as iron, suffered from low morale in this almost fratricidal battle.

Suddenly, there was an uproar in the barracks behind him.

Wang Chunyun frowned, landed on the ground, and said in a deep voice,
"what happened?"

A general with a numb face pointed to the veteran kneeling on the ground in the ruins, crying silently.

He looked very old, but his figure was burly, with scars and calluses covering his naked body.

At this moment, he was kneeling on the ground, bang bang kowtow.

Wang Chunyun stepped forward, bypassing the surrounding soldiers, and was about to speak.

But the old soldier suddenly pulled out his iron sword, wiped it on his neck, and collapsed to the ground amidst the bright red blooms!
Wang Chunyun was stunned.

Beside him, a soldier pointed to a monster whose head had been beheaded in front of the veteran who committed suicide.

"That... is Lao He's mother."

"He cut off her head with his own hands."

"crazy."

Wang Chunyun's expression became stiff, and his nails sank into the flesh.

Looking at the soldiers around who didn't know what to make, he wanted to say something, but his throat seemed to be blocked by something, and he couldn't make a sound.

This kind of cruel and helpless thing is happening constantly on every inch of land.

Let Daxia's iron-blooded soldiers, who would not be shaken even if they were smashed to pieces, almost collapse.
.
Jiangzhou.

Ever since Zhusheng City appeared and Tianji Pavilion entered.This piece of land has grown prosperously and has never suffered any major disasters.

until today.

Countless people suddenly mutated, steel grew out of flesh and blood, and they lost all their sanity and turned into bloodthirsty monsters.

Qixia City, as the largest city in Jiangzhou second only to Qixiu New City, fell to the ground.

The majestic city walls were broken, the wide streets were in a mess, and the flesh and blood corpses everywhere were hideous and terrifying.The trembling roars are endless, mixed with crying and howling, a scene of the region.

In the streets and alleys, a girl covered in blood stained her whole body was staring blankly at the hideous figure approaching step by step. Her dirty little face was full of despair, and tears gushed from her eyes, immature and irritating. Heart-wrenching roars echoed.

But the approaching monster remained unmoved, and roared like a beast from its throat.

The next moment, the steel claws transformed from the five fingers shredded the wind and gunpowder smoke, and fell down without mercy!
It's too late, it's too soon.

A bright red flame rose from the void!
With the terrifying high temperature, it instantly reduced that ferocious monster to ashes!

The girl raised her head dully, only to feel a gust of wind sweep her up into the sky!

From a height where she could overlook the entire city, she saw—countless people who were as helpless as her, suspended in the air at a loss.

There are her young playmates, the stingy owner of the tea shop in the alley, and the old homeless man in the market...

But many more are gone.

And in front of the countless people, two figures stood awe-inspiring, one of them was the well-known Zhenxi King in Jiangzhou, and the other was a woman in a red dress, with bare feet in the air, as if wrapped in flames.

"Jiangnan, all the people who are still alive are here." Fengmu forgot to glance at the people with lifeless faces, and said softly.

Jiang Nan nodded, and a spark fell from his hand, falling into Qixia City.

In an instant, the entire city burned, and the crimson flames illuminated Tian Simin, and those monsters who had lost their sanity were turned into ashes in an instant.

After doing all this, he let out a long breath of foul air, his face extremely gloomy.

The phoenix mother took a look at him, her tone softened rarely,
"The moment they mutated, they were already dead."

"Today's monsters are just walking dead. If left unchecked, it will only bring greater disaster."

"I know." Jiang Nan turned his head away, his voice was cold,

"Ke'er, the others and the avatar have sent news that all the monsters in Jiangzhou have been suppressed and eliminated. Qixia is the last city."

At the beginning of the chaos, Jiangnan and Fengmu immediately noticed the abnormality.

Before the Tianji Pavilion's order was delivered, he had already made thousands of clones, suppressed the tide of monsters in the entire Jiangzhou, and saved the surviving people.

But even if the action is so fast, as the place closest to Tianji Pavilion, the situation in Jiangzhou is not optimistic.

Twenty percent of the monsters turned into monsters by the people who had supported King Zhenxi so much died—Jiangnan and Mother Feng did it themselves.

His mood is naturally conceivable.

The phoenix mother sighed softly. Although the prince was decisive in killing most of the time, these monsters were once his subjects and companions.

"Tianji Pavilion, what are you doing?" Jiangnan looked at the Tianji Pavilion in the distance, frowning.

He personally participated in the battle in the starry sky, and recognized the mutated appearance of the people at a glance, which was very similar to the monster in the flesh and blood hive.

But that time, the flesh and blood hive and the monsters it produced should have been reduced to ashes under the flames of the Phoenix Mother, and they didn't even touch the edge of Shangyuan.

Thinking about it this way, the problem can only be caused by the "sample" captured by Tianji Pavilion for the first time.

At this moment, a blue bird flapped its wings from the direction of Tianji Attic, landed in Jiangnan's hands, and turned into a scroll.

The latter unfolded it and saw that his face was somber that water dripped out.

On the kite sent by Li Qingyun, the current situation and the cause and effect of the conspiracy were described one by one.

The phoenix mother frowned, took a look, and her brows became more and more wrinkled.

After a long time, he let out a weak sigh,
"It was calculated..."

Neither humanity nor the ancient gods expected that the "samples" sent to Shangyuan for the first time were the carriers of the "metal minerals" recorded in the letter from the beginning.

In order to learn more about the upcoming enemy, Tianji Pavilion dissected those "samples" as a matter of course.

Such behavior is not a problem in itself.

But I don't want to, it's in my arms.

Those "metal minerals" silently attached to the people who came into contact with it, and spread to the entire human world. Finally, after several months of dormancy, they erupted and caused disaster.

Having defeated the Heavenly Court and the Shepherd, the imposing Humanity lost once before confronting the aliens from outside the sky.

After Jiangnan picked up the strong wind and sent the surviving people to the palace, he looked at the ruins underground and shook his head.

When the disaster broke out at the beginning, he was resentful towards Tianji Pavilion.

But when everything is known, there is only a sigh.

Is Tianji Pavilion wrong?

No.

They just want to know more about the enemy and prepare for the upcoming war.

It can only be said that all humane actions were manipulated by the foreign race that day.
.
Zhusheng City, under the original tree.

Seven figures sat cross-legged, and the original energy was like a mist, faintly surrounding them.

The seven first-rank Supreme Realm sometimes frowned, sometimes relaxed, sometimes like crazy... Sinking into enlightenment, they knew nothing about what happened in Shangyuan.

Master Shifang stood in front of several people, silent for a long time, and finally did not move.

The vicissitudes of the real dragon's voice echoed in his ears, "Tianji, don't you intend to wake them up?"

"Mo Jianzhu and others are all in meditation now. If they wake up rashly, the Tao will be damaged and the realm will fall; if it is serious, the source will be backlashed, and the body will die and the Tao will disappear."

Master Shifang shook his head slowly, "The most important thing is—even if they wake up, is it useful?"

The True Dragon Emperor was silent.

After the chaos broke out, Master Shifang, who was in charge of the secrets, immediately figured out the disaster that swept the entire Shangyuan and the source of everything.

But, it's too late.

In other words, when the "metal minerals" from outside the sky start to scatter everywhere, everything is a foregone conclusion-humanity will fall into "civil war", consume each other, and die.

Although the major forces are now using tough methods to isolate the infected humans who have not yet mutated.

But with the exception of Wu Tie, who was discovered early and made sufficient preparations, there are definitely more infected people in other places lurking in the crowds, and it is unknown when the mutation will erupt.

In this almost incomprehensible situation, even if the seven first-rank supreme realms can wake up safely, it will be a drop in the bucket.

"Also, everyone seems to be ignoring one thing."

Master Shifang sighed, looking at the figures under the tree,
"If so, skin contact and wounds will spread the mutation-causing 'metal'."

"I remember the old man—when Lord Xinghe was fighting those monsters, he was seriously injured, right?"

As the voice fell, chaos surged in the vast void, and the True Dragon Emperor's huge eyes revealed endless horror, and he suddenly woke up!
According to what they know so far, ordinary humans with no cultivation level are equivalent to cultivators of the fourth and fifth ranks after the mutation.

Then if the Supreme Lord of Galaxy is also infected, what kind of ghost will he become after the mutation?
