Drunk Immortal Gourd

The overall strength of the demons was inferior to that of the spirits, and they had lost their first-hand advantage. Even if they blocked the attack of the spirits, they were just barely holding on. At the critical moment, the Earth Corpse Demon Lord remembered the demon corpse puppet he had sacrificed, so he opened the Thousand Corpse Reverse Yuan Formation and released the Star Saint Lord.

The high-end combat power of the demons was instantly improved by a large margin. The Earth Corpse Demon Lord, who was at the second level of fusion, the Thousand Illusion Demon Lord, who was at the first level of fusion, and the Star Saint Lord, who was also at the first level of fusion, had no fear or cowardice after being sacrificed and refined into demon corpse puppets. They fought bravely and fearlessly, and the demons did not feel sorry for using them, so they played a role no worse than the second-level fusion cultivators. There were only two spiritual cultivators who had fusion, and although the Sun Saint Lord was at the third level of fusion, they could only tie.

As for the cultivators of Lianxu and Huashen, the spiritual clan still had the advantage in number, but the demons relied on their skills to control a large number of low-level cultivators to participate in the battle, so the battlefield was not a one-sided situation.

This battle lasted for two or three hours. The sky was dark, the sun and the moon were dim, and corpses piled up like mountains inside and outside the city lord's mansion. Blood flowed like a river. The spirits gradually gained the upper hand with their large numbers. Seeing that the situation was not good, the Earth Corpse Demon Lord was ready to go all out, so he controlled the demon corpse to rush towards the Sun-Watching Saint Lord.

The Sun-Watching Saint Lord was knowledgeable and knew that the Earth Corpse Demon Lord was ready to abandon the demon corpse of the Star-Pointing Saint Lord and planned to get rid of him by self-destructing the demon corpse puppet. This was the self-destruction of a combined cultivator. Even if the Sun-Watching Saint Lord was affected, he would be seriously injured if not dead. He did not dare to neglect and retreated quickly, but the speed of the Star-Pointing Saint Lord was not much slower than him, and he failed to get rid of the corpse demon behind him several times in a row.

Seeing that the Star-Pointing Saint Lord's self-destruction preparations had been completed, the Sun-Watching Saint Lord was about to be severely injured. Perhaps Qingyang's manipulation of the Thousand Corpses Reverse Yuan Formation had worked. At the critical moment, the Star-Pointing Saint Lord actually recovered a trace of clarity, suddenly turned around, and rushed towards the Earth Corpse Demon Lord who controlled him.

This change was too sudden. The Earth Corpse Demon Lord had no time to react. Before he could make any defense, the Star Point Saint Lord exploded not far from him. The power of the combined cultivator's self-explosion was earth-shattering, and the mountains and rivers changed color. Even Qingyang, who was in seclusion in the back, seemed to feel the shaking of the earth. Not to mention the Earth Corpse Demon Lord who was close at hand, his body was immediately blown to pieces, like a piece of rag thrown out, falling to the ground for a long time without moving.

The demon clan failed to steal the chicken and lost the rice. The self-explosion of the Star Point Saint Lord not only did not hurt the Sun Viewing Saint Lord, but also blew up the Earth Corpse Demon Lord himself. The remaining Thousand Illusion Demon Lord was alone and could not support himself. He quickly used the escape technique to escape. The high-level officials all ran away. The remaining demon cultivators dared not to fight and fled in all directions.

The spirit clan would certainly not let them leave easily. The Sun Viewing Saint Lord led the spirit clan cultivators to chase them all the way, chasing them for millions of miles, and only gathered the team and returned to Wuhuo City half a month later.

The Spirit Clan won a great victory in this battle. Not only did they recapture Wuhuo City, but they also killed countless demon cultivators, including one combined demon cultivator, more than 40 refining demon cultivators, and nearly 1,000 incarnation demon cultivators. The number of demon cultivators who escaped was less than half of the original number. The Thousand Illusions Demon Lord was powerful and had many means, but he still escaped after all. However, when they escaped, they were panicked and scattered, and many of them hid in the surrounding areas. They might not be able to return to Qianji City, so it would take time to slowly search for them.

Of course, the Spirit Clan also suffered a lot of losses. The Star Point Saint Lord self-detonated and died, nearly 60 refining demon cultivators were killed or injured, and 700 to 800 incarnation demon cultivators were killed or injured. If we add the traitors who took the initiative to surrender to the Demon Clan, the corpse puppets killed for sacrifice, and the millions of low-level demon cultivators enslaved by the Demon Clan in the occupied areas, the Spirit Clan actually suffered more losses than the Demon Clan. These were all the consequences of the Demon Clan's sneak attack in the rear.

After this great battle, the entire Wuhu City was extremely bleak, with ruins everywhere, piles of corpses, rivers of blood, countless wounded, and the City Lord's Mansion was almost razed to the ground by the self-explosion of the Star-Pointing Saint. The Sun-Watching Saint and the Moon-Pointing Saint not only had to hunt down the remnants of the demons and traitors, but also had to treat the wounded, clean up the battlefield, and organize people to repair Wuhu City. They were very busy.

Fortunately, there were many low-level cultivators in the spirit-occupied area, and the efficiency of mobilizing the power of the bottom was still very high. It took only three months to restore Wuhu City to its original appearance, but it was not as prosperous as before. I don’t know if it was because there were too many dead and wounded cultivators, or because everyone was still scared.

In these three months, dozens of demon cultivators were hunted down, and some traitors who escaped the net were caught in Wuhu City, but they were all small fish and shrimps. Seeing that the remnants of demon cultivators caught were getting fewer and fewer, the Sun-Watching Saint withdrew all the people he had sent out, and the subsequent work was handed over to the Immortal City.

In three months, those with minor injuries recovered, and those with serious injuries basically controlled their injuries and recovered more than 90% of their strength. Except for Lai Tongtian from Moyuan City, the subordinate immortal city support personnel recruited last time have almost arrived. At this time, Wuhu City is well-staffed and heavily guarded. Even if the demons send people to attack again, it should be able to withstand several waves of attacks.

After the situation stabilizes, it is time to consider supporting the front line. This time, the Holy Lord Zhiyue stayed behind, but the two sentries of Ren and Gui brought back by the Holy Lord Wangri were left behind. With more than a thousand people from the two newly formed sentries, they rode the spirit turtle of the Holy Lord Wumeng to Qianji City.

The Holy Lord Wangri really kept his promise. Not only did he not notify Qingyang during the decisive battle, he also did not disturb him again afterwards. The days passed by little by little in Qingyang's retreat, and five years passed in a blink of an eye.

It is not known whether it was because the Heavenly Scythe Saint brought his men to Qianji City to stabilize the situation and there was no shortage of manpower, or because he knew that Wuhu City suffered heavy losses and could not bear to withdraw more men from here. In short, since the departure of the Sun-Watching Saint, Wuhu City has not sent a large group of monks to the front line. Only occasionally, some small groups of monks would escort personnel and supplies and communicate back and forth between Qianji City.

Of course, Qingyang's retreat was not completely non-existent. He would occasionally go to the market to purchase some cultivation supplies, or talk to the Flower-faced Granny, Yuanbao Boy and others to inquire about the news from the front line. He also participated in the auction organized by the Xianyou Pavilion and bought a lot of spiritual fruits to refine into pills for consumption, so his cultivation naturally broke through to the ninth level of the Spiritualization.

In the five years, there was not much change in the Drunken Immortal Gourd. The strength of the Iron-armed Spirit Monkey and the Alcoholic Queen Bee had both improved, but they had not yet reached the level of breaking through the realm. In other words, the number of alcoholic bees had increased a little.

Another change is that the fifth flower on the gourd vine in the Drunken Immortal Gourd space finally bore fruit after more than a hundred years. Its specific properties cannot be seen yet, but Qingyang is full of expectations for it. This gourd has been blooming for more than a hundred years. It is estimated that it will take at least hundreds of years to fully mature, which is much longer than the previous golden gourd. I wonder how much more powerful it will be in the future than the Immortal-Slaying Gourd.
