Miraculous Plants Battle Zombies
According to the Old Man Ghost Cry, the reason the prince was in trouble was because another legendary Celestial Person had appeared.
But it doesn't matter.
As planned, the Old Man Ghost Cry will unleash his zombie army to completely destroy the imperial city, leaving nothing behind.
"Li Xuanjun, today I'll show you the power of my treasures! Still practicing traditional Sword Dao? Tremble before my terrifying methods!"
Rumble rumble rumble...
Heavy footsteps approached.
Hundreds of zombie kings covered in white fur rushed towards them from afar.
"There are still so many?"
One of the Grandmaster of the Black and Yellow Sect was panting heavily. He had been fighting continuously and was already exhausted. He had thought that the situation would improve once Li Xuanjun, who was invincible among Grandmaster, arrived.
But this army of zombies seemed endless.
The zombie king is even more difficult to deal with. Although its combat power is only at the Ninth Rank, it has high health and defense. It takes a lot of effort to break through its defense. Often, you have to use some of your best skills or strongest techniques to break through the defense of a zombie king.
The Old Man Ghost Cry was now beaming with pride.
Despite being only a Ninth Rank, he left these Grandmaster of the Azure Heaven Realm helpless and miserable. They were even utterly unafraid when facing Li Xuanjun.
At this moment, Li Xuanjun remained calm and composed, his hands behind his back. He looked at the Old Man Ghost Cry and said, "You have aided and abetted evil, harming countless lives. Today, you will surely perish here."
"Hahahaha... Let's see who dies first, you or me..."
The Old Man Ghost Cry waved the black sail in his hand, and the ordinary zombies, their eyes filled with bloodlust, charged even faster towards the guardian formed by the Grandmaster.
If it is breached.
A hole will be torn open in the west of the city, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
West City has now become the last refuge. Thanks to the efforts of Grandmaster Danxia of Ten Thousand Swords Valley and hundreds of Ninth Rank experts, many people from other districts have fled to West City.
But most of them perished in the bellies of zombies.
Along the way, Li Xuanjun deployed the divine objects Chen Ning had instructed him to use throughout the entire imperial city, and many times he resisted the urge to make a move.
He knew.
Even if he intervened, he couldn't save them all. Only by following Chen Ning's instructions could the casualties in the capital be minimized.
A small act of impatience can ruin a great plan.
The reason Chen Ning chose Li Xuanjun to do this task was because Li Xuanjun's strength was unparalleled, making him the most suitable Grandmaster.
Now.
Giant, harmless Sunflower sprouted from the ground.
Soon.
This formed a defensive line.
Not only were Old Man Ghost Cry and the other subordinates of the Carefree King somewhat confused, but even several Grandmaster were bewildered as they stared at the Sunflower that had suddenly appeared beside them.
The Sunflower even displayed remarkably human-like expressions.
This terrified them.
Next.
An even more spectacular scene unfolded.
Row after row of neatly arranged Peashooter emerged from the ground.
Thump!
Thump!
Thump!
Peas streaked through the air, striking the zombies. The enormous peas were incredibly destructive, piercing right through their flesh.
But to actually eliminate a zombie, you need seven or eight peas.
What the hell is this thing?
The Old Man Ghost Cry's expression changed as he sensed a sense of crisis.
"What is this?"
"I've never heard of plants being able to fight before?"
Several of the Carefree King's subordinates, who were controlling the zombie horde from a distance, were also dumbfounded.
"Whatever it is, it's just a Spirit Plant that has gained some sentience. Attack with full force!"
The Old Man Ghost Cry, and the black sail billowed.
The zombie horde surged forward at an unprecedented speed, charging ahead with incredible ferocity.
Pfft!
Pfft!
Pfft!
The zombies charging at the forefront exploded on the spot, their rotting flesh torn to pieces.
It turned out that, at some point, the ground was covered with round Potato Mine.
Looking at that round, yet incredibly lethal, Potato Mine.
Even the Grandmaster were somewhat astonished.
The Carefree King controlling the zombies immediately dared not let the zombie horde risk advancing any further.
However.
The Sunflower, which seemed to be the most harmless plant, now had an amazing effect.
All that could be seen were the Sunflower at the very back of the defensive line, emitting a bright yellow light, transferring the sunlight they drew from the sun to the already exhausted Potato Mine.
The Potato Mine that had killed zombies have regenerated and emerged from the ground.
Even the Peashooter's pea bullets rely on sunlight from the Sunflower; otherwise, a single Peashooter's magazine would have a limit.
This is the greatest use of Sunflower.
Other plants, while they can certainly grow stronger by absorbing nutrients and sunlight themselves, do so too slowly, requiring accumulation over time.
But Sunflower act like a supply depot, providing a continuous source of energy to maintain the combat capabilities of other plants.
But.
This boost is only temporary, similar to a buff.
For these plants to truly become the powerful entities Chen Ning envisions, they still need to accumulate nutrients over time.
Soon.
The Potato Mine formation has taken shape again.
Seeing this, one of the Carefree King's subordinates went berserk, saying, "Those things can actually regenerate! If this continues, they'll be worn down and killed sooner or later!"
The Old Man Ghost Cry's gaze shifted several times, and finally, he shouted, "All of you, listen to my command! Break through these ghostly things at all costs!"
