“No one will fall,” Charlotte Sky answered indifferently then pointed in a direction.
Looking over, Xander saw Lucy and Renee Pine lying on the ground. The two of them were the weakest among the people who had come this time. After a long battle, both their bodies and spirits could not hold on any longer and fainted.
They were not lying there before, so it was impossible for them to lie down peacefully. Obviously, it was Charlotte who took them back to this relatively safe area. If they had stayed a little further away, they would have been torn into pieces by the zombies.
However, Xander still shook his head and said in a hoarse voice, “I don’t have the strength to talk to you again. We can’t lose any people.”
After that, favonovel.com closed his eyes, and a dark light began to appear on his bloody body. The light condensed into distorted characters. His hair grew longer and longer, becoming gray and messy.
The aura of desolation and terror was released as a pair of fangs gradually appeared.
This was the fourth time Xander Faris had entered the Asura Path in such a short time. Under normal circumstances, doing this a time for three days would never have any problems. Today, in just a few hours, favonovel.com had entered this state continuously.
One could imagine how much pressure his body was enduring. This time, his momentum began to decline even before favonovel.com could completely transform into an Asura.
“Stop it!”
Just then, another voice came. This time, it was Jessica who stopped him.
The scabbard of the Lush Hills Rain Sword in favonovel.com hand had been lost in the sudden chaos of these zombies.
She came over with a sword. “I’ll go to help them. You should have a rest.”
Looking at the way Xander looked at her; Jessica pondered for a while and then understood what favonovel.com wanted to say.
“There’s something wrong with that guy, so I’m not sure if Caspian has received any message from me, so we can’t fall down now. Otherwise, everything will be gone…”
Hearing Jessica’s words, Xander and Charlotte looked up into the distance.
A large cluster of purple clouds gathered there. Under normal circumstances, the clouds would give people a feeling of being thick and soft. However, the purple cloud gave people a particularly evil feeling.
With such a great distance between them, anyone who saw it would feel a great pressure, feeling incomparably uncomfortable.
A few hours ago, this cloud was the first to be discovered. At that time, Xander Faris, Lady Maisie, Solana Gibson, and even Lucy had all gone smoothly. Under the cooperation plan with Caspian, they went to the stairs at the edge of Black Soul City.
Obviously, as time went by, cultivators who had landed behind the city gradually realized that although there were some strange clay sculptures in the city, what was truly worth fighting for was that the thing that the Heaven’s Edge Sect viewed them with special respect was in the palace on the other end of the stairs.
After understanding this, cultivators in Black Soul City began to gather toward the stairs outside the city.
The advantage of this was that the danger along the way was reduced a lot. They were piled up by a group of cultivators. But, the purple cloud suddenly appeared.
Any unusual phenomenon in Black Soul City was worth paying close attention to. The appearance of the purple cloud naturally attracted everyone’s attention. However, no one had expected that the threat that would follow would pour toward the crowd and swallow everyone in an instant without giving them any chance to react.
Just as everyone discovered this purple cloud that had suddenly agglomerated, a tall and skinny mysterious fellow wearing a black robe walked out from the cloud.
This guy held a long walking stick in his hand. He raised his crutch.
Without warning, countless zombies broke out of the ground.
At least 20% of cultivators gathered here were dragged into the ground before they could react and no longer made any sound. These zombies seemed to have been lurking here for a long time.
Who would have thought that there would be such a horrible thing just a few inches below the ground?
And there were countless of them!
What was even more frightening was that these zombies were more powerful than those who had appeared in various countries before. Not only did they have a more terrifying body, but they could also use magics. The instant magic of the eight elemental essences were released, almost every single cultivator present was stunned.
Many cultivators looked incredulous when they died.
Fortunately, thanks to the large number of buildings around, after the early chaos, cultivators on the scene gradually formed a small circle to fight back. Then, there was a fierce battle for several hours. However, no one had expected that there would be so many zombies at the beginning of the battle.
The number of cultivators trapped in this area had decreased by 70%. And as their spiritual Qi and physical strength were exhausted, the cultivators continued to fall faster.
At this rate, it was a miracle that they could hold on for another hour. The only way was not to wait for reinforcements outside the Corpse Tide. In this case, no one dared to expect that someone outside the Corpse Tide would come to rescue them.
That was unrealistic.
For the trapped cultivators, the only way to save themselves might be to shoot down the purple cloud in the air, or to kill the mysterious black-robed man. But after missing the first opportunity, it was impossible for anyone to do it now.
Despair weighed down on everyone’s hearts. This kind of mood could even be seen from the eyes of some cultivators.
After hearing Jessica’s words, everyone’s heart sank.
“These zombies are different from the ones we saw before,” Charlotte said at this time.
Jessica’s eyes narrowed and favonovel.com nodded. “They give me a feeling that each of them is very similar to formation made of clay sculptures before.”
Charlotte immediately agreed.
Those clay sculptures restrained the cultivators’ magic according to the elemental properties of magicperformed by cultivators. However, after Caspian’s explanation, everyone already knew the reason: the paint on the clay sculptures formed an exquisite formation.
Through the change in position, those clay sculptures could make different changes. But at this time, these zombies were completely different.
Every one of them seemed to maintain part of their consciousness when they were alive. They echoed each other and cooperated with each other, beating cultivators who were already at a disadvantage.
“We can’t stay here any longer. We have to try to rush out!” Jessica glanced at Xander and said, “I’m going to bring back the people around now. You should hurry up and recover. After a while, we still need you.”
Xander did not insist, because favonovel.com also knew that it was useless to blindly show off. What Jessica said was the most correct way.
After letting Charlotte and Xander stay where they were, Jessica pointed in the direction where Solana and Omar were. She turned to Lady Maisie and said, “Senior Sister Maisie, help me…”
