The east turned white and the stars disappeared. Wei Shiqi stood between the sea and the sky, looking at the waves at the end of his field of vision. Fatigue emerged from the depths of his bones, and his physical injuries worsened rapidly. He suppressed his cough and faced the dawn. , straighten your waist. Di Chaohua guessed right, but also guessed wrong. With the guidance of the incarnation of Chunyang, he learned the various variations of the Nine Dragons Hui Chao Kung Fu, and used his killing intent to drive the six dragons back to control the sword. He completed the "Breaking Sky Slash" and devoted all his energy to it. , with seven slashes in one breath, if Heiyu and Bu Qianlan don't retreat, he will be the only one who retreats.

Nearly half of the 100,000 ghost soldiers were lost. This battle was a complete victory, but the first credit must be attributed to the demon infant Yu Wenbi. If he hadn't infected the sea monster with his demon energy, acting as the eyes and ears, he could see into the Yu clan's attack on the waves. Wei Shiqi was unable to intercept and kill the Yu Clan army. Even if he had all kinds of means, he could only look at the sea and sigh. Once the Yu Clan Zerg team up to set foot on Da Ying Continent, he would face an unprecedented hard battle.

Ruan Qing ordered the ghost soldiers to disperse into the sea, pick up the Yu clan corpses one by one, peel off the skin, feathers, muscles, bones, essence and demon pills, without distinguishing the thickness, put them in storage bags, and transport them all back to Dayingzhou. Wei Shiqi waited seven days and seven nights in the independent world to confirm that the Yu clan had returned home. At that time, he took Yin Yuan'er, Ruan Qing, Kang Long'er and the remaining ghost Yin soldiers from the sea eye back to the small world of Blind Sea in the deserted north city. .

Although the Feather Clan has retreated, the Zerg Clan is still there. The Demon Infant is hiding in the eyes of the Beihai Bay Sea Formation, like a big spider dormant in a cobweb, searching for the Zerg Clan day and night, but finding nothing. With the help of Buddha Vyakara, he devoted himself to cultivation in the small green lotus world, achieved a clone, returned to Huangbei City, worshiped under the lord of the city, and became his second direct disciple. This time, Yu Wenbi, following the master's order, spread his many ears and eyes into the hinterland of the Yuanhai. He almost exhausted the demonic energy and boiled it until the lamp was dry and the oil was gone. . However, this tuberculosis ghost was one of Wei Shiqi's most trusted confidants. No one dared to underestimate him inside and outside Huangbei City. Even if some people doubted his origin, they only muttered a few words in their hearts and did not dare to say anything. .

The news of the Yu clan's retreat was kept secret and was only circulated among a few people such as Mei Zhenren, Lan Zhenren, Hu Bugui, Wen Xuan, Zhi He, etc. Those who heard it had different thoughts and secretly speculated on how much the news of this great victory contained. Mei Zhenren went to visit Wei Shiqi in person, met him once, and talked with him for a long time before leaving. In addition, even Zhi He was blocked by the dragon bat under the snow peak, and he retreated angrily.

Wei Shiqi couldn't hide it, and sent the divine star power left by Di Chaohua to the Creation Tree as fertilizer. It took several months for it to be absorbed and turned into his own. The Creation Tree has gained another true immortal incarnation. Its trunk has grown a large section, its branches are lush and leafy, and its vitality is rolling like a tide. The cave sky continues to expand. Outside the city, there are countless more mountains, rivers, birds and animals. Wei Shiqi felt that his cultivation had made great progress, and he was one step closer to becoming a saint. His body was nourished by the vitality of the Fortune Tree, and his injuries were stabilized and would not collapse. He felt quite relieved.

Judging from the whereabouts of Jinglang Kuang, the direction of the Yu tribe's troops is exactly the Huangbei City in the far north. According to the predetermined plan, the troops in the five cities of Jishi, Daming, Sishui, Heqiu, and Wumo were drained, and Huangtingshan Only Tang Liao and Shizhao were left to look after them, and they were almost empty shells. The number of Huangdu boats in "The Fifty-Three Times on the East China Sea Road" was increased several times. The flow continued day and night. Dayingzhou's troops and Daomen's material resources continued to move northward. To the north of the Dongtian Mountains, it became a huge military camp, with Hu Bugui personally in charge.

Lingqu and Wenxuan were in charge of the Shenbing Hall. The Shenbing camp recruited soldiers and expanded its scale repeatedly. The small world of Blind Sea became a day and night training ground. The ghost soldiers were the sharpening stone for sharpening their guns in battle. Yin Yuan'er could not bear the disturbance and had already left this place. Qingxiu Di, living in a cottage on the top of the snow peak, looking at the brightly lit deserted Beicheng, sitting or standing, patiently waiting for the final battle that will decide the fate of Dayingzhou.

The sharp sword of the Zerg is hanging above the head, and it is unknown when it will suddenly fall. Born from sorrow and dying of happiness, all the forces in Da Yingzhou have put aside their previous grudges, twisted into a rope, and jointly waited for the arrival of the Zerg army.

That would be a real "big army". Compared with it, the Yu Clan's hundreds of thousands of people would be just a drop in the ocean.

Day after day, year after year, Wei Shiqi seized every opportunity and spared no effort to accumulate strength. The hundred-year period has long passed. Demon Infant Yu Wenbi tried his best, with blood flowing from his seven orifices, and he was almost turned into a human being. There is no news about the Zerg. Even scavenging vultures such as the Eight Generals, Shadow Thieves, Painted Buddha, and Carp Whales have come to the outer sea. However, there is no news about the Zerg, as if they have never left Star Luo Continent.

Wei Shiqi felt vaguely uneasy. One person was planning shortcomings, while the other two were planning longcomings. He, Mei Zhenren, Yin Yuan'er, and Hu Bugui repeatedly deduced and failed to see through the Zerg's movements. The darkness before dawn, the calm before the storm, this is what everyone agrees on.

The tides of the abyss come and go without stopping for a moment. Among the waves, a piece of dead wood floats and sinks. It goes through the crazy rainstorm, passes through the stormy waves, bathes in the peaceful sunshine, bathes in the moonlight and starlight, all the way to the west, and finally is The sea water pushed up Da Yingzhou.

A desolate beach, the sound of the tide gradually fades away, the moonlight shines on the dead trees, cold and desolate. After an unknown amount of time, the dead wood split apart with a "crash", and an insect egg that was either green or white rolled out. It was stained with a layer of rough gravel and trembled slightly, pregnant with some mysterious changes.

After a few breaths, the insect egg opened a hole, and a small millipede came out, like an earthworm with countless thin legs. It ate up the egg shell in two mouthfuls. Still wanting to finish it, it raised half of its body and looked up into the distance. starry sky. The sky was speechless, the cold stars were shining, and a tiny bit of star power followed an invisible trajectory and descended on Da Yingzhou, impartially, and threw it into the mouth of the newly hatched Malu.

As if a spark ignited boiling oil, the millipede's tiny body expanded rapidly, and in the blink of an eye it grew into a giant creature as thick as a water tank and several feet long, covered with yellow and black armor, flawless from beginning to end, as if it were a fine beast. Made of iron, shining brightly.

The horse rolled on the ground and suddenly turned into a human form. It was tall, with long hands and feet, a hammer hanging from its naked body, and a ferocious look on its face. His nostrils flared, he snorted loudly, puffed out two puffs of white air, twisted his head and neck to stretch his muscles, licked his lips, as if he felt unbearable hunger in his belly, and ran into the forest with long strides, without any time to spare. Then he hunted a bear essence, sucked up all the blood in one gulp, and with a slight exertion of his five fingers, he tore open the chest and abdomen. He ate the soft internal organs first, and then the rough bear meat. The white bones were chewed until they were crispy, and he ate them cleanly. Only a bearskin remained.

He wrapped the bear skin around his body, determined the direction, and strode towards the frozen sky mountain range.

Contrary to what Wei Shiqi thought, the Zerg did not send out an army at all. The only one who came to Dayingzhou was Qin Qu, a disciple of Ba Hao from Qianzu Crypt.
