The system asked me, a weak woman, to challenge a saint

After hearing about the collapse of the Eight-door Soul Locking Array, Chen Subaru raised a question: "Didn't Master Liu He say that he could gain seven days? Why did it collapse on the seventh day?"

Long Ying replied: "At that time, we were all horrified by the power that destroyed half of the Misty Valley, and were not sure that the eight-door soul locking formation was broken. Fortunately, our stronghold was located on the edge of the Misty Valley, close to the ghost temple. , even so, if it weren't for the numerous defensive formations deployed by the ghost temple monks, this stronghold would be difficult to preserve.

"When the aftermath of the broken formation dissipated and the stronghold barrier stabilized, the commander, Netherworld Ghost Elder, and Liu Er each selected some people and went to different directions to investigate the situation. But the strange thing was that as soon as they left the barrier, they changed Unable to move.

"This flame crystal barrier, from the inside, you can see the scene outside, but your spiritual consciousness cannot perceive the aura outside. Some people saw that everyone outside was frozen, so they left the barrier to help, but the result was It was our people who were all frozen as soon as they left the barrier.

"Fortunately, they were not far away, so the commander ordered to expand the scope of the flame crystal barrier and re-include those who were immobilized into the barrier. Sure enough, they all resumed their actions.

"Several original ghost gate guards reported to the commander-in-chief, and the power that immobilized them aroused their vigilance hidden deep in their memories. This must be related to the will of the saint.

"At this point, we are convinced that it was the saint's will that broke through the eight-door soul-locking formation. Although many people began to question Taoist Liu He, after careful consideration, the commander-in-chief believed that this was not the case."

Chen Subaru suddenly thought of something and asked thoughtfully: "Did the timeline deviate at the moment of leaving the Eight-door Soul Locking Formation?"

A trace of surprise flashed in Long Ying's eyes, and then his expression became complicated, and he replied: "Yes, Wen Ruo, you also saw the mystery. In fact, we should have noticed earlier that when the sacred tree disappeared, The laws of time and space of the Eight-door Soul Locking Array have been disrupted. Therefore, it actually took a whole day from the time we started to evacuate the Asura battlefield until we set up an ambush at the exit."

Xueer had doubts in her heart and couldn't help but ask: "How did the commander know that a day had passed inside?"

Long Ying expressed satisfaction with Xue'er's keen observation and explained: "Xue'er, you asked this question well. You may have some idea that we, the guards of the ghost gate, have a close connection with the ghost gate, but in the eighth In the Door Lock Soul Formation, we cannot feel the existence of the Ghost Gate. When Miss Liuer appears in the Misty Valley, we feel the long-lost call of the Ghost Gate. And the key to all this lies in the great commander's reconnection with the Ghost Gate. After establishing contact, we were able to obtain information from Ghost Gate.

"At first, the Grand Commander was busy absorbing the knowledge and intelligence accumulated by the Ghost Sect over the years, and did not pay too much attention to the changes in time. However, the unexpected collapse of the Eight Gate Soul Locking Array, this major event caused the Grand Commander to think deeply. After exploring In the process, he discovered a truth that is easily overlooked.

"Because the exit of the Eight-door Soul Locking Array has been opened, the auras of the original Ghost Gate guards have leaked out. The time it took for the Ghost Gate to receive these auras was as long as seven days by the time the Eight-door Soul Locking Array collapsed. The time calculated by the guards themselves, From the time the decision was made to evacuate to the time the formation was broken, only six days had passed. In addition, the time on the Asura battlefield had changed before the exit was opened, and the difference was obviously more than a whole day."

Chen Subaru suddenly realized, and he sighed with emotion: "This is indeed a problem that is difficult for people to notice. Fortunately, there is this flame crystal. Otherwise, if the army of the saints cooperates with the blessing of the saint's shadow, even if you have the assistance of the original ghost gate guards, It will inevitably lead to the annihilation of the entire army.”

Long Ying sighed, glanced at You Ye who was trying to adjust his emotions, shook his head and said: "Although we escaped the holy army under the protection of the flame crystal stone, the ghost temple is not so lucky."

Hearing this, Chen Subaru looked at You Ye in shock and saw that her face was pale and she was trying her best to suppress the grief in her heart, so that her whole body was trembling.

He thought for a while, avoided You Ye's direction, and sent a message to Long Ying: "What happened in the ghost temple?"

Long Ying also turned slightly sideways and sent a message to Chen Subaru: "The pressure of the saint did not last long in the Misty Valley. It moved to the east of Yizhou with the demon army. We are optimistic that the target of this demon army is Shu County. . So according to the original plan, I planned to send the flame crystal to the ghost temple.

"When the team transporting the flame crystal stone left the barrier, Liu'er's ghost gate guards suddenly received a message from the ghost temple."

Chen Subaru sent a message and asked, "Is this a message asking for help?"

Long Ying shook his head and replied: "No, it's a masterpiece."

Chen Subaru was stunned when he saw Long Ying using his spiritual consciousness to convey a text message.

This message was not long, and Long Ying also retained the logo of Judge Qingling on the summons talisman.

Obviously, Judge Qingling was very hasty when he released this message. He wrote: "Liu'er, I don't know if you can receive this communication talisman. If you can receive it, remember not to return to the ghost temple. At this time, maybe I Both you and your master have fallen, and the ghost temple has also fallen into the raging tide of monsters.

An hour ago, there was an earth-shattering roar from the direction of the Misty Valley. The sound shook every inch of the ghost temple and stirred up the aura of heaven and earth. Because of this, your master stopped healing and found me. While we were guessing whether it was related to you, countless monsters and monsters emerged from the sky. They poured down like waterfalls. The entire ghost city's defense formation instantly collapsed under their ravage. The formation organized by the monks left behind seemed like tissue paper. , easily torn apart. Those monsters have no scruples, whether they are civilians or monks, they will kill them cruelly and without mercy as soon as they see them.

At this moment, I am summoning the remaining monks to defend the Judge's Hall of the Ghost Temple to the death, but at this moment, I have very little spiritual power left. Liu'er, as Judge Qingling, I should have protected your master, but now, I am unable to do it. I didn't protect your master well, nor did I protect the ghost market well. I can't hold on any longer.

Liu'er, you must live well and never return. Your master and I can't leave intact corpses in this craze of monsters, so you don't have to worry about it anymore. These monsters are so ferocious that even if you lead the ghost gate guards back, you will not be able to resist them. Go find Zhengyimeng quickly, they may be able to help you, remember! Don't come back to die.

I hope that you can survive, that the Zhengyi Alliance can resist this wild beast craze of unknown origin, and that you can be safe and sound.

This is Judge Qing Ling's final work. "

Chen Subaru had personally fought against elite demon soldiers and knew how powerful they were. Qing Ling and He Zhenren had brought the comatose Liu'er back to the ghost market before. They did not return to the Misty Valley, so they were not able to enter the eight-door soul locking array. Therefore, they did not receive the gifts from the original ghost gate guards, and their cultivation levels remained unchanged. In the alchemy stage.

In the previous battle, He Zhenren's Taoist foundation was damaged and his strength was greatly reduced; Liu'er took away all the ghost gate guards and 70% of the ghost temple monks, leaving the entire ghost city to rely on the defense against the Nascent Soul monks. A large formation to deal with incoming enemies.

At that time, the demon soldiers had just invaded the realm, and they were probably led by those powerful demon kings. Even if the Great Demon King does not take action himself, his demon kings and demon generals are still capable of easily defeating the ghost market formation.

Although those demon cultivators may still be concerned about the laws of the saints and heaven and dare not take action against mortals rashly, they carry a large number of demonic beasts with no intelligence. The people in the ghost city are simply unable to resist the impact of those demonic beasts that are full of vitality and blood. Can become their blood food.

Chen Subaru could conclude that Master He and Judge Qingling had no chance of surviving in that situation. He could even imagine the tragic situation of them being torn apart by monsters after their spiritual power was exhausted.

In his memory, the scene of adventure with the main body and the two judges emerged. He Zhenren's softness reveals her tenacity. Her feelings for Liu'er are like a master and a mother. Qing Ling is considerate, gentle and kind, and can always mediate conflicts between judges.

Even though this was just the memory of his body, Chen Subaru still felt a surge of sadness in his heart, which he could not calm down for a long time.

He didn't realize that his fists were clenched tightly, his nails dug into his flesh, and blood dripped to the ground.

Seeing this, Long Ying reminded him softly: "Wen Ruo, the matter has passed..."

However, her transmission was interrupted by You Ye's cold voice: "What are you talking about secretly?"

Chen Subaru and Long Ying both turned to You Ye. She did not show sadness at the moment, but her red eyes betrayed her heart.

You Ye looked at Chen Subaru's hand, frowned slightly, rolled his eyes at Long Ying and said, "Did you tell Wen Ruo about the ghost market?"

Long Ying smiled awkwardly and said nothing.

Looking at Chen Subaru's worried look, You Ye showed a smile and said: "Wen Ruo, I have hoped more than once that you and I would stay in the time before the invasion of the Saints, which was full of danger, but both of us had a destination. . But we can’t go back. I can only face it calmly. During this period, I acted very strong, but it was all an illusion.”

Her voice trembled slightly, and she continued: "I am very scared in my heart. What I fear most is losing the chance to meet you again, so I force myself to live, and I must live at all costs. Even if I close that channel, The door to your inner world opened by you yourself.”

When she said this, she gently held Chen Subaru's hands with both hands and stroked the wounds on his hands. Then he looked at Long Ying again and said: "We have lost a lot, we have lost the ghost market, we have lost our partners, and not long ago we even lost the Misty Valley stronghold."

You Ye turned her gaze back to Chen Subaru, her tone became firm, and she said: "Wen Ruo, although we have almost lost everything, I still remember our agreement. As long as you bring it up, I will do it without hesitation. I will embark on a journey with you, even if my body is shattered, I will have no regrets.”
