Chapter 537: Chapter 236: White Dew Gu, Despairing Yuwen Dao, Yang Lu
“Divide into four teams, attack from four directions, don’t let them keep hitting the wall!”
Wu Ming stayed with more than ten people on the south side, directly facing the wall, swinging his knife to kill those still charging at the wall.
With his basic strength of thirty thousand pounds, the ease of killing a group of people no stronger than the Logging Realm was obvious. His long knife struck repeatedly, almost killing one person with each blow, and within moments, he had slaughtered over a dozen people.
The dozen or so people with him were also from the Earth-digging Realm; although they weren’t as fast at killing as he was, they were indiscriminate, not caring who approached—whether young or old, man or woman—they swung their butcher’s knives right away, slaughtering many in mere moments.
This was just one direction. The other three directions, together with thirty people following his orders, began a mad massacre; the fifty people on the second floor, wielding Strong Bows, also began a reckless shooting spree.
Immediately under the eaves of the wooden house, corpses lay everywhere; within only ten minutes, at least three to four hundred bodies piled up on the ground.
“Don’t charge, don’t charge, everyone is dead.”
“Hurry, retreat, retreat, I don’t want to die, I can’t break out, I don’t want to die!”
“Don’t kill me, don’t kill me.”
………
Ultimately, they were just a group of ordinary people, quickly intimidated by Wu Ming’s over one hundred Earth-digging Realms. The able-bodied, filled with hot blood, could forcibly hold their ground, but the elderly, women, and children couldn’t.
They began to cry out, too scared to charge forward anymore, those more timid directly squatting down with their heads covered, even if dragged, they wouldn’t budge, unafraid to take a step closer to the eaves.
But Wu Ming’s team was already bloodthirsty, and as there was no one charging towards the eaves, they directly raised their knives and charged into the middle, killing all the way; the cries inside the house shook the sky, the scene was bloody to the extreme.
No one noticed that as the corpses on the ground increased, the sky gradually turned pale; on the surface of an old corpse in the corner of the wooden house, a white dew suddenly emerged.
The dew appeared like a plague; after one appeared, it quickly spread across the corpse, soon covering all of the elderly’s exposed skin, resembling water vapor condensing after temperature rises, with a touch of bizarre beauty, yet extremely eerie.
It wasn’t over yet; the speed of the dew’s spread was accelerating, quickly reaching the corpses beside the elderly, third, fourth…
Within over a hundred breaths, all the hundreds of corpses on the ground inside the wooden house were occupied by dew.
Sizzle……
The dew on the earliest old corpse seemed to have a high temperature; it first reddened, then emitted light smoke, finally with a zz sound the dew burst open, and inside a wisp of blue flame rose.
Boom……
The blue flame from the first burst dew instantly ignited the dew on the rest of the elderly’s body, then with a boom, the blue flame instantly engulfed the elderly’s corpse.
The subsequent chain reaction, occurred!
Inside the wooden house, the corpses on the ground had all developed dew; two spread from one, three from two…
Rumble!
Blue flames shot into the sky, fiercely lighting up the entire house, if someone were outside, they would find the wooden house had completely turned blue, glowing with ethereal light in the dark night, terribly eerie.
“What kind of fire is this?”
“Quick, look at them, what’s that white dew on them?”
“This fire can’t be put out, can’t extinguish, run, run!”
“It’s coming out on me too, white dew is appearing, run quickly…”
…………
At the moment the flames burst, everyone inside the wooden house, whether the victims’ side or Wu Ming’s killers, all awakened.
But their awakening, was too late!
The overwhelming blue flames had long ignited the entire wooden house.
“It’s appearing on me too, help, help!”
“Run, run, there’s a problem with the dew!”
“Ah……”
What’s more deadly is, the speed of the dew’s spread was astonishingly fast, just now it appeared only on corpses, now it’s surfacing on living people too.
Those who reacted quickly attempted to wipe off the dew growing on them, but not only did it not wipe off, instead, the more they wiped, the more it grew, soon covering their whole body.
On the northern and southern trenches of Yangyuan Peak, where battles had previously occurred, many corpses lying on the ground started showing identical symptoms to those inside the wooden house.
Zz……
Just like the elderly corpse, the dew first heated up to red, then burst open, the first wisp of blue flame appeared, igniting the remaining dew, quickly engulfing corpse after corpse.
Outside Yangluo Base, the deafening battle sounds halted the moment the blue flames rose inside the wooden house.
Li Xuantiang and Wu Xiong with Han Jiuli’s teams, all stared without blinking at the wooden house consumed by blue flames, hearing the screams from inside, their expressions swiftly turned suspicious and uncertain.
“What is that?”
“How did it suddenly catch fire?”
“Is that a normal fire? Have you ever seen pure blue flames?”
“Could it be……”
………
Li Xuantiang scanned the surroundings of Yangyuan Peak, noticing blue flames rising both to the north and south, his eyes instantly focused, then swiftly realized something, quickly pulling out a Jade Pendant with Silver Edging from his bosom.
The silver edging of the Jade Pendant was already scorching hot and gradually emitted a red glow.
“Run, something bizarre has come!”
Li Xuantiang’s expression instantly panicked beyond control, first shouting fiercely at the Longyou army in front, then quickly retreating, rapidly escaping towards the north.
“Run, run, run fast!”
