Chapter 152: Returning to the Ruins
"The Netherworld Dark Clan's innate abilities are so powerful, are their own strengths formidable as well?"
Lie Lei asked anxiously.
"They are indeed formidable beings in the Advanced Plane, many powerful warriors of the Human Clan in the Advanced Plane may not be their match! My heart is also very curious, why the terrifying demons like the Netherworld Dark Clan would appear in the Qiankun Continent. Sect Master Lie, you must thoroughly investigate the origins of the Netherworld Dark Clan! If we do not thoroughly investigate why the Netherworld Dark Clan exists in the Qiankun Continent, all living creatures on the continent may face a catastrophe! We must not allow a disaster to unfold here."
Duan Gujin's eyes flashed, and the word "alarmism" came to his mind.
He wanted to scare Lie Lei, to let him know that the Qiankun Continent was very dangerous, so that Lie Lei would have his disciples step up their vigilance to prevent enemy invasions.
"How do we guard against the Netherworld Dark Clan?" Lie Lei heard the implication in Duan Gujin's words and asked about the countermeasures against the Netherworld Dark Clan.
Duan Gujin was inwardly pleased, he knew he had successfully instilled fear in Lie Lei, and what he needed to do next was to make Lie Lei ready for preventing invasions from other forces.
"Sect Master Lie, please strictly investigate the Inner Sect Disciples who have joined the Green Cloud Sect in the last one or two years. The most fearsome tactic of the Netherworld Dark Clan is that they can control others with their unique methods. Once someone is controlled by them, that person will become their zombie, completely obeying their commands! At the same time, the Green Cloud Sect must also be ready to repel enemy attacks, and the best way to do so is to strengthen the defences of the Green Cloud Sect's Array! From now on, the Green Cloud Sect must be prepared for battle at all times, so if the Netherworld Dark Clan launches a sudden attack in the future, we won't be caught off guard!"
Duan Gujin quickly spelled out the countermeasures he had thought of before, which were not actually meant to deal with the Netherworld Dark Clan, but to contend with the Netherworld Sect.
"Yes! Yes! You are absolutely right!"
Lie Lei nodded repeatedly.
A moment later, Duan Gujin asked Lie Lei to go find Zhu Ge Hongyun to get ready for the future battle against the Netherworld Dark Clan.
Two days later, Lie Lei told Duan Gujin a piece of big news.
"What? The Transmission Altar of the Netherworld Dark Clan has been destroyed? Many zombies have emerged from underground?"
Hearing this news, Duan Gujin was extremely shocked.
He remembered that in his previous life, there was no such incident of zombies appearing in the ruins, but in this life, he simply could not understand why so many zombies would emerge from beneath the ruins of the Netherworld Dark Clan.
"Could it be that my intrusion has caused some situations that were impossible in the previous life?"
Duan Gujin took a deep breath and then agreed to go with Lie Lei to investigate the ruins of the Netherworld Dark Clan on the Tianluo Plain.
"We can only find the truth by entering the ruins ourselves!"
Duan Gujin said solemnly.
"Duan Gujin, rest assured, I will protect you at all times!"
Lie Lei knew that Duan Gujin was knowledgeable and aware of things unknown to the Green Cloud Sect.
Therefore, he knew it was entirely necessary to bring Duan Gujin to investigate the Tianluo Plain.
So, they flew to the Tianluo Plain on their swords overnight.
After arriving at the ruins, Duan Gujin and Lie Lei found that the surroundings of the ruins were filled with Netherworld Sect Disciples, they concealed their Life Aura and sneaked into the ruins.
Once inside the ruins, Duan Gujin immediately took out the Evil Eye.
A moment later, he learned the truth from the memories of the Evil Eye.
"Damn it! I didn't expect this!"
After knowing the truth, Duan Gujin felt incredibly frustrated.
It turned out that the reason why those zombies appeared was that the Evil Eye that controlled them was taken away by Duan Gujin.
Once the Evil Eye suppressing the zombies disappeared, the zombies would emerge from the bottom of the Transmission Altar.
Even if Duan Gujin returned with the Evil Eye, it would be too late.
"So these zombies were released by me!"
Duan Gujin touched his nose, knowing that he had to find a way to eliminate those zombies no matter what.
Lie Lei released his Divine Sense; he quickly realized that the area his Divine Sense could investigate was full of zombies.
The decaying aura from those zombies was extremely heavy, and he inferred that they had been dead for countless years.
"As expected! That Netherworld Dark Clan is too terrifying!"
Lie Lei's mind raced, and he immediately envisioned the horrific scene of the entire Qiankun Continent being occupied by those zombies.
"That kind of thing must never happen!"
Lie Lei made up his mind that he had to stop the invasion of the Netherworld Dark Clan on the Qiankun Continent at all costs.
"Do you know if these zombies have any weaknesses?"
Lie Lei immediately asked.
"Damn! I forgot to tell you earlier, these zombies are most afraid of fire! We need enough fire to obliterate them!"
"As long as these zombies have a weakness, we can deal with them! Thank goodness, these zombies are not invulnerable!"
Duan Gujin's eyes sparkled, "These zombies must have just run out, their strengths have not fully recovered, now is the best time for us to act, but look, there are many Netherworld Sect Disciples nearby this ruin. Before we conduct a fire attack on these zombies, we must first expel these Netherworld Sect Disciples! Sect Master Lie, please send a message back requesting that the Sect Master lead the experts, bringing Kerosene with them to this location!"
