The low chant of the magic spell does not echo throughout the wilderness.
In an instant, centered around the place where Li Yan stood, a deep, viscous darkness appeared out of thin air and spread towards the Kuerka Guard Station.
This darkness was not without light, but rather contained a chilling aura beneath the Nine Netherworlds and countless shadowy outlines.
The Yin Wind howled, carrying the clatter of dragging iron chains, the suppressed neighs of warhorses, and the cold sharp sound of armors rubbing against each other.
These were the Yin Bureau’s patrol soldiers, responding to the command of the walking "living Yin messenger" in the mortal world, crossing the boundary of the Yin Yang Realm, and manifesting here!
The darkness spread rapidly, instantly swallowing the guard station’s perimeter fences and watchtowers, pressing straight towards those seemingly ordinary barracks.
This sudden anomaly immediately alarmed the presence entrenched within.
"Roar!"
An icy, arrogant thought, seemingly composed of countless wails of departed souls, suddenly erupted from the core of the guard station.
The sound was like a cold wind, full of violent energy.
Meanwhile, a dense, hair-raising, muffled sound suddenly burst within the guard station!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Those "soldiers" who originally stood stiff at the barracks’ entrance and on watch posts, faces frozen in bizarre fake smiles, bodies seemed drained of all bones, or as if crushed by an invisible force from within, exploded one after another!
No blood splattered, only thick ink-like black air, exuding piercing coldness, enveloped with spots of ice-blue ghostly light, crazily gushed from their shattered shells.
This was by no means ordinary suicide.
Each soldier’s "sacrifice" appeared as a precise ritual, instantly converting their remaining life force and soul fragments into overwhelming evil power.
"Whoosh—!"
A strong wind rose from the ground, yet it was not a natural wind.
It was a terrifying cold wave, formed by the mixture of countless resentful souls’ grievances and extreme cold Astral Bane Energy! The dense snow mist was no longer white but showed a bizarre gray-blue hue.
Like a living entity, it spread madly in all directions, centered around the guard station.
The scene wherever the snow mist passed was horrific.
The earthen walls, wooden beams, and discarded weapon racks were instantly covered in a thick layer of ice, glistening with ghostly blue luster, issuing a teeth-chattering freezing sound.
Even the thick snow on the ground was frozen into a solid, mirror-like, steel-hard ice shell in the blink of an eye.
If it were merely physical extreme cold, for the intangible Yin Department Soldiers, it would just feel like a gentle breeze.
Yet this gray-blue snow mist contained lethal Yin cold Astral Bane Energy! It could freeze flesh and blood and also erode the Divine Soul, defiling the Spiritual Body.
The dark wave, representing Netherworld order, formed by countless yin soldiers, upon contact with this bizarre cold wave, seemed as if it hit an invisible ice wall, constantly emanating a deadly chill.
Sizzle sizzle sizzle!
The darkness and gray-blue cold mist collided violently, making a piercing sound like hot oil was poured on snow.
The advance of the yin soldiers was forcibly restrained, the edge of darkness continuously eroded and pushed back, and even some yin soldiers at the forefront, touched by the Astral Bane cold air, their forms became blurred and dim.
Li Yan’s pupils slightly contracted, his heart sank.
The means of this Outer Realm Evil God were indeed eerie and overbearing, able to directly block the steps of the Yin Bureau’s soldiers with Astral Bane cold air.
His internal Gang Qi circulated rapidly, ready to personally strike.
At this crucial moment of stalemate, a steady, deep voice like a booming bell directly sounded in his sea of knowledge:
"Do not panic! Leave it to me!"
The voice was exceedingly familiar, Li Yan’s face showed a smile.
It was indeed the Five Dao General!
As this voice fell, a far more magnificent and dignified aura than ordinary yin soldiers erupted from the depths of Yin Bureau’s darkness, blocked by the gray-blue cold mist.
This aura was even stronger than before.
Back when Sui Lun True Monarch was venerated as Great Xuan National Guardian God, Li Yan took advantage and promoted the establishment of Five Dao General temples by Chambers of Commerce everywhere, praying for the safety of trade routes.
With incense burning strong, divine might self-enhanced!
In the roiling darkness, the virtual shadow of the Five Dao General did not fully manifest its true form, yet its power had descended.
The invisible spatial power instantly penetrated the ravaging gray-blue cold mist, ignoring its dual erosion of physical and Divine Soul, directly enveloping the Kuerka Guard Station.
Buzz!
The surrounding air emitted a low vibration.
A Gang Qi Great Array similar to "Heaven and Earth" formed.
The gray-blue cold mist released by the Evil God capable of freezing yin soldiers, and the evil power emitted by its body, seemed to be forcibly grasped and compressed by an invisible giant hand, imprisoned within the yards of the guard station.
No matter how the cold mist surged and thicken the ice layer, it could no longer spread outside even an inch, as if the guard station itself became a prison.
"Roar—!" Deep within the guard station, came the roar of the Evil God filled with rage and disbelief.
It obviously did not expect the Five Dao General to possess such skill.
Li Yan felt a sudden relief, as if a thousand-pound burden was lifted from him.
With the Five Dao General’s move, the most troublesome Evil God entity and its cold bane field were temporarily locked, buying him precious time and space.
"Good!"
Li Yan shouted in a low voice, his gaze turned to another battlefield.
Almost simultaneously with the Five Dao General confining the Evil God, at the other side of the mountain pass, thunderous shouts of kill and explosions erupted!
Thanks to Li Yan’s early warning with Divine Movement Skill, Daoist Qingyuan and Thousand Households Chen leading two thousand elite from Liaodong Town had long been poised and ready.
As the ambushed 3,000 Rakshasa Battleaxe Soldiers, matchlock gunners, Japanese Samurai, and Ninja mixed troops, due to their plan being exposed, launched a hasty charge, what awaited them were dozens of new cannons in the Great Xuan Army formation, already calibrated.
