doomsday territory

When Ling Yun and Xie Yan were having fun in the spirit world, Caojia Town, far away from the mountains, was about to face an irreversible demise.

Autumn means that the sky is dry and the rain is scarce.

After entering late autumn, the hot summer and autumn tigers no longer exist, and the land of ZG flows directly into the cold current of Siberia from north to south, as if winter has arrived ahead of schedule.

Even though it is located in the southwestern mountainous area, Caojia Town, which is only on the outskirts of the southwest mountainous area, is still inevitably covered with a strong sense of autumn.

Without the baptism and moisturization of rain, the whole town is covered with a thick layer of loess, and all kinds of vegetation are inevitably full of withered and yellow colors, and fallen leaves are all over the neighborhood.

The temperature dropped to ten degrees Celsius, and a breath of stale air was exhaled from the chest cavity. There was a white mist in the air, and the water vapor condensed and gradually dispersed.

It is no longer enough for people to rely on a set of jerseys to keep out the cold when they go out, so they put on early winter equipment one after another.

The autumn wind is bleak, and Cao Yushuang just came out of the Cao family mansion after her morning class. She is tall but thin, with the same pair of indigo training pants on her legs, and she changed into an autumn coat bought in the city last year, the color of the snow-white fabric , the raw edges of the stand-up collar make the face of this blooming girl more beautiful and refined.

Martial arts practitioners are always full of vigor and first-class protection against the cold. Except for the inner disciples of the Cao family, no one else would dare to wear such thin clothes when the temperature is ten degrees Celsius.

Only more than four months have passed since the end of the day. Cao Yushuang is one of the most promising young children of the Cao family. The optimism of the elders in the clan and the envy and jealousy of her peers make her a little carried away.

But the daily training masters are very tight, and the amount of training is increasing faintly. Cao Yushuang feels that it is getting more and more difficult.

Cao Yushuang also wanted to complain, getting up before dawn every day for morning exercises and morning classes, running with a light load, and practicing against the master is the most terrible thing, and the bones are about to fall apart, and no one has time to think about other things until the end, because As long as one is not careful, the masters will immediately suppress it strongly, and the rest of the day will add three days.

Cao Yushuang, who practiced martial arts hard since she was a child, has never achieved this kind of training intensity. Occasionally she got into a dead end and was so wronged that she wanted to cry.

Over the past few months, Cao Yushuang felt that something was wrong. The elders and elders of the clan had become more and more strict with them, and they looked at them more and more eagerly, almost to the point of overpowering them.

In the past, the elders and other brothers and uncles who used to come to the martial arts training ground every three to five times to instruct the juniors in two moves, seemed to suddenly become busy, and did not go back to the mansion until late every day to sleep, and left at the same time as them in the morning.

Most of the time, the Cao family mansion only has a group of juniors brought by the masters and weak chickens who have no power to restrain the chickens. Even after the training, most of the masters will leave.

So on this day, Cao Yushuang finally made up her mind to find out after the morning class. She wanted to know why the elders became like this, where did they go, and what did they do?

mountain temple.

This magnificent temple full of Taoist mythology has been enshrined by the Cao family for hundreds of years, and has been handed down to this day with the changes of the times, continuing its unique splendor.Even the arrival of the end of the world does not seem to affect its tranquility.

Cigarettes are lingering, and old ballads are sung in a low voice.

Cao Yushuang restrained her breath, quietly avoided the temple monks at the entrance of the mountain temple, and rushed into the mountain temple.

The inner corridors of the Shanshen Temple are full of corridors, and a large number of temples and pavilions form a maze-like passage structure.

As long as I can remember when I was a child, together with the huge and complex maze-like structure, the tall image of the mountain temple reflected in the spiritual world has been portrayed in the hearts of a group of children.

Legend has it that the mountain god can call the wind and rain, bringing abundant rain and rich food to the mountains, and the mountain god bestows blessings on his people.Caojia Town has served at the foot of the mountain temple for generations, and exchanged pious beliefs for the blessing of the mountain god to Caojia Town.

Whether superstitious or not, the Cao family has kept in mind from generation to generation that they must follow the ancestral rules to worship the mountain god devoutly, practice martial arts diligently, and take breaking the void as their highest goal and ideal.

There is a hall in the mountain temple full of ancestral tablets. It is the place where the Cao family has a nameless ancestral hall and worships the ancestors.

The highest place in the ancestral hall is not the first patriarch, but the No.1 who broke the void with martial arts!He is also the only person in the history of the Cao family who has practiced ancient martial arts secrets.

Cao Tengyun—he is the ninth generation descendant recorded in the Cao family tree. There is another biographical field record in the ancestral hall, which records a few deeds about this Broken Void No.1.

Like many rapidly rising geniuses, Cao Tengyun won the No. 12 layer of the highest martial arts cheat book of the Cao family as a peerless genius, and he was only in his 40s at the time.Even if he can't call the wind and call the rain and cast beans into soldiers like the legendary mountain god, he can destroy a city with a wave of his hand.

Of course, the city two or three hundred years ago was very small, except for the imperial capital and the wealthy land, the others were roughly the size of Caojia Town.

Cao Yushuang hid all the way, and glanced at the highest wooden tablet when he passed by his family's ancestral hall.

The specification and size of the tablets are completely different from those of other tablets. The Cao family set up a tablet for such a master who left the mortal world. The most proud existence of the Cao family leaves a piece of faith!

According to legend, Cao Tengyun went to the heaven after breaking the void, and has been following the mountain god all the time!

The car leaving the mountain was still in the mansion. Cao Yushuang knew that it was impossible for the elders in the clan to walk so far outside. The town was in a depression, and there seemed to be a lot fewer people. She couldn't tell whether those people starved to death or After dying of illness, she only knew that the supply of supplies in the town was getting tighter and tighter, and so was the Cao family.

Therefore, Cao Yushuang guessed that they were most likely to gather somewhere in the mountain temple, doing some things that cannot be made public, and keeping some secrets.

There are palaces with yellow walls, red columns and glazed tiles everywhere, and their shapes are so similar that it is almost impossible to tell which one is which.

After bumping around and searching the east side, except for the two temple monks at the door and a cleaning uncle in the temple, Cao Yushuang didn't meet any members of the clan, so he bumped back and went back to the west side.

Blessed by the mountain god, today must be quiet and smooth!

Cao Yushuang bowed three times in the direction where the statue of the mountain god was placed.

The temple on the west side of the mountain temple suppressing Zombie Valley is extremely quiet. It is centered on the Tai Chi Bagua array where eight old men sit, surrounded by eight circles of men and women in exercise uniforms, all of whom are in their thirties. The Cao family formed a strange circle densely covered with human bodies.

Each person sits cross-legged on a futon according to a certain pattern at a certain fixed point. They squeeze the formulas with their hands, move their lips, and silently recite the ancient martial arts.

Suddenly, the short-bearded old man sitting on the most central circle of Taiji gossip array turned red, his brows were tightly frowned, smoke was rising from the top of his head, his forehead and the tip of his nose were instantly covered with sweat, and his hand holding the formula trembled, as if under his clothes. There is still energy to swim.

A bulge the size of a child's fist ran from the waist of the old man with a short beard to the back, and then to the butterfly bone, and then divided into two smaller bulges, and then swam from the left and right shoulders to the arms, and so on.

Immediately afterwards, the corresponding group of people sitting cross-legged behind the short-bearded old man also blushed one after another, and showed varying degrees of energy wandering, breath confusion, and body weakness.

It seems to be contagious, the short-bearded old man had just had an accident, and the other old men on the Tai Chi gossip array also turned red one by one, and the corresponding group of people behind him also appeared in an unusual state.

Grand elder, second elder, third elder... and her father!

Cao Yushuang covered her mouth and swallowed her exclamation back down her throat, what's wrong?

Just as Cao Yushuang hid in the corner and secretly frightened, the old man in the position of gossip officer opened his eyes. The moment he opened his eyes, he shot out a sword light. His eyes were as cold and hard as real. The old man who discovered Dong Sheng and Dong Xiao's ability to detect!

"Come on! Prepare for the blood sacrifice!"

The old man with sword-like eyes uttered a powerful sound from outside the hall, and someone immediately brought a few sacks over.

The constantly wriggling sacks, long and curved shapes, and some faint sounds became more and more clear in this quiet palace.

All the people on the futon got up, and with the opening of the Tai Chi Eight Diagrams Formation, the howling sound of ghosts and wolves from below also came up, and at the same time, there was a strong smell of blood...and the rotten smell mixed with it.

The people carrying the sacks were also wearing exercise clothes, and they were of different ages. The older ones had numb expressions on their faces, while the younger ones showed a little unbearable thoughts, as if this could hopefully soften the elders' hearts.

But let alone the veterans, even the people sitting in the outer circle of the big gossip array did not respond.

Among the eight elders, the Grand Elder is the oldest, the most prestigious, and the coldest and most terrifying. Except for one of the other elders who is female, the rest are all men, but even this female elder stood aside indifferently, with her eyes closed. Faintly, it seems to be adjusting the blood.

Among the things that happened just now, only the great elder looked better, and now his complexion has returned to normal. The elders who have practiced the heart formula can't see any serious problems, and those who are lower, such as the female elder, closed their eyes and adjusted , other people's skills are lower, and many of them still look red-faced and blood-veined.

Because of the appearance of the unknown sack, Cao Yushuang was embarrassed to show up. Her father taught her to be obedient since she was a child, so she sneaked to the mountain temple. This was the first time she disobeyed her father's wishes.

With Cao Yushuang's frequent inner activities and the development of the situation, every two people carried a sack, and one of them fell to the ground during the violent struggle.

The great elder's sword eyes narrowed slightly, with displeasure on his expression.

The two men who didn't hold on to the sacks immediately bowed in the direction of the great elder to admit their mistake, turned around and quickly lifted the sacks on the ground, and walked quickly to the edge of the fully opened round hole. At the end, the sack fell into the hole amid violent wriggling and churning.

Cao Yu opened her eyes wide, staring at the hole where the sack disappeared without blinking.

It's... people!

Bloody and rancid, what's in the cave?

The person in the sack falls...will he die...

The second sack drops.

"Drink!" Blinking her eyes desperately, Cao Yushuang gasped in a daze.

"Who's there! Come out!" The Grand Elder's voice was like thunder, falling straight into Cao Yu's ears.

Although Cao Yushuang was hiding in a corner and had a cover, she would definitely show her eyes and half of her head if she wanted to look, so when the great elder found her, she also met the great elder Ling Han's gaze like a sword.

At that moment, Cao Yushuang really felt the cold air entering his body, from the eyes to the brain, a cold air with Xiao Zhan poured straight into the heart, raging in the body.

"Xiao Shuang?" The great elder saw the person coming, and the coldness in his eyes subsided by seven points.

"... Great Elder." The chill on his body disappeared instantly, and Cao Yushuang stepped forward to call someone, the second elder, the third elder... shouted one by one.

The great elder gave Cao Yushuang her father a wink, and Cao Yushuang was pulled aside by her father, "Why did you come here, kid?!"

Cao Yushuang could hear her father's stern voice, which also contained rare care and tension, and the little daughter couldn't help but burst out, "I'm curious, you are always away from the mansion, and you won't tell me..."

"Little Shuang..." the great elder called.

"Hey! Grand Elder." Cao Yushuang walked up to the Grand Elder with her father.

"Since you're here, let's stay here and practice your mind. It's a good thing that happened to you."

Once it was settled, the elder waved his hand to tell people to quickly throw away the remaining sacks, and then arranged for Cao Yushuang's position in the big gossip.

With the help of the initial Taiji gossip formation, expand the eight-circle big gossip formation.

It is said that it is to cultivate the mind, but in fact, the people sitting in the hexagram position will get the energy from the ground. As long as they use this energy for their own use, they can not only increase their skills, but also increase the suppressing power of the big eight trigrams.

Isn't it very beneficial to those who practice ancient martial arts? !

The sacks continued to be thrown down, but Cao Yushuang was extremely restless. Her father told her just now that there was a valley under their feet, suppressing many zombies, and the energy on the ground was the feedback of an ancient formation in the valley.

Cao Yushuang stood silently in the crowd, looking at the elders around who took the energy of the zombies for their own use with peace of mind, why did they use the brain crystals and the energy of the zombies so naturally?

Those are zombies!

Cao Yushuang didn't know how many zombies there were in the valley below, but she knew that the energy fed back from the valley was enough to transform more than 50 people in the temple day and night. It can be seen that there is a lot of energy, so how many or how powerful are the zombies below?

The masters taught them from an early age that they have to rely on their own hard work to make progress. Any power added by external objects is not as good as what they get by themselves. Anything that is not deserved will be given back.This is what the master said!

Master...

By the way, the master is not here, the master is so powerful, why is he not here? !

Each of the fourteen sacks, thrown at the end, would make the underside of the hole glow scarlet.

Cao Yu has a close heart, those are all human beings, with the same flesh and blood as her, but for the sacrifice of blood, to suppress the zombies, to gain the power of the zombies... Are there so few people in the town?Didn't everyone find out?

Veterans... elders... father... how did they become like this?

After the blood sacrifice was completed, everyone returned to their respective positions, and the entrance of the cave was slowly closed.

Cao Yushuang was taken by her father to the outermost circle of the big gossip, and pointed out a place for her. The original person there suffered internal injuries due to the out-of-control zombie power fed back by the previous formation, so Cao Yushuang had a vacancy to replace her.

"Crack-"

Everyone looked at the Tai Chi Bagua Formation, and the hole that was supposed to be closed stopped when there was still a gap of half a meter.

"Crack-knock-"

The two black lacquered sharp claws seem to rest on the two semicircular Tai Chi Eight Diagrams arrays that are scaled and zoomed several times as if at random.

There is no formation effect if there is no complete circle of Taiji Bagua Town.

The two black lacquered claws pushed hard, and the round hole opened again.

"Naughty animal!" the elder yelled loudly, he was the first to jump up, trying to kick his two sharp claws back into the valley.

But the body of the sharp claw was obviously faster than the great elder, with two "swish", the two monsters had jumped onto the ground of the palace.

"Looking for death!" The great elder's gaze was like a sword, and with a sharp palm, he carried a wind blade, and slashed at the monster the moment it landed.

"Roar——" the monster growled, one of which was hit by the elder and fell into the hole, while the other dodged the sharp palm and turned around to attack the others.

At this time, the other elders also showed their killer moves to meet the enemy. The great elder closed the hole again, but more monsters jumped up "swish", and the closure of the hole was blocked again.

The mutation is only in seconds, and there are many monsters that come up, the big elder is entangled by two particularly tall ones, and there are one or two in front of the other elders, but there are more monsters, and the black monsters that keep emerging from the hole are long. In the shape of a human, but in the form of a carnivore, there are as many as seven monsters that were missed from the elders. They stretched out their sharp claws and bloody mouths, and attacked the weaker Cao family around them.

Blood was spreading in this temple on the west side of the mountain temple. The veterans with profound skills killed the monsters one after another. Why didn't the monsters kill the weak Cao family one after another?

Cao Yushuang saw a lot of people died, not only the Cao family members who kept falling outside the Big Eight Diagrams Formation, but also the only female elder of the Cao family who was about to lose half of her head in one bite by the monster, and another elder was besieged by the monster, blinking. There are too many people who have been injured and disabled in the stubborn resistance.

But no one escaped...

What happened later, why only a few young and middle-aged people survived in the huge Cao family and Cao family town, Cao Yushuang didn't know.

She only remembered that the snow-white autumn coat she was wearing that day, the one with a circle of cute fluff on the stand-up collar, was dyed red...
