Chapter 116: The Laws and Disrupt the Capital (Part 1)

Outside the city, Xu Changqing controlled the illusion of Taoism and made a series of illusions of siege. As expected, the city became panic as he expected, and more than 20 demon cultivators guarding other city walls rushed towards this side. Then Wu Wu and Zhengxiao Taoist took advantage of the demon cultivators to gather in the east city and mingled into the city. Soon, the Forbidden Imperial City was the place where the dragon energy gathered for the Qing Dynasty. If something happened, it would inevitably have an impact on the Nine Dragons's Grand Prix, so according to his estimate, Xuangang Heavenly Demon would definitely lead most of the demons to rescue him.

However, Xu Changqing obviously overestimated the status of the Forbidden Imperial City in the mind of Xuangang Heavenly Demon. The fire, which originally only needed four or five demons including Xuangang Heavenly Demon to cast spells together, showed no sign of weakening, but instead burned even more vigorously. In addition, the battle in the Wang Taiyi Hutong became more intense like the fiery fire. Even if Xu Changqing did not deliberately feel it, he could clearly understand the aftermath of the Taoist demon energy caused by the fighting, and could easily guess the situation on the scene. What surprised him the most was that the sound of the gathering drums suddenly came from the east city wall, as if the soldiers guarding the city were preparing to leave the city to fight these illusions.

Before Xu Changqing could think of a solution, he saw that Chaoyang Gate on the east side of the capital slowly opened. Teams of soldiers rushed out of the city timidly and quickly gathered into a formation outside the city. But amid the false sound of gunfire, the formation that had just assembled suddenly dispersed. The soldiers found cover and hid, leaving only a Qing general who was covered in clothes waving his saber in his hand and shouted loudly at the soldiers who were hiding behind the cover, and the cannons that had just been about to push the city retreated back.

The Qing general was obviously the leader of this group of troops. If he was allowed to gather the army again to fight back, these illusions would naturally be broken without attacking. So Xu Changqing became anxious and kept making seals with his hands, using true energy and Taoist power to maintain the great technique of all plants and trees. At the same time, he quickly stood up, picked up a piece of fist-sized gravel on the ground, gathered his right leg and kicked him at the Qing general with all his strength.

The rocks roared across the grass and shot towards the heart of the Qing general. However, when it was about to hit the vital point of the Qing general, a demonic energy suddenly surged out of the Qing general's body, and instantly condensed into solidity, turning into a big fist, blocking the blow that Xu Changqing thought was a must-kill attack.

The demonic energy was extremely powerful. Xu Changqing asked himself that the stone was no less than ten thousand pounds, but he did not take any advantage in the confrontation with the demonic energy. While the demonic energy was dispersed by the power on the rock, the rock also shattered in response to the sound. The power attached to the rock was dispersed by the demonic energy by nearly 80% of the demonic energy. After turning into a small thrust, it hit the chest of the Qing general, pushing the Qing general off the horse and falling heavily to the ground. Although the Qing general's life was saved, it was unable to get up for a long time because of armor.

Perhaps the impact just now aroused the anger of the Qing general. When he was helped up by his subordinates, he threw the waist knife in his hand towards the illusion created by Xu Changqing. Just in front of everyone, the waist knife swirled through the body of a foreign soldier and fell to the ground. However, the body of the foreign soldier quickly restored and looked intact. At that moment, everyone was stunned. Many soldiers hiding in the bunker couldn't help but stand up, with their faces full of stunned expressions.

At this time, a careful veteran discovered something was wrong. The troops kept firing but none of them were on bullets. They clearly saw the guns that were the most accurate to shoot themselves, but no bullets flew over and pulled them. They turned around and found that the city wall had not been damaged after being attacked by so many cannons. At this time, a creepy sense of fear hit his heart, and his scalp immediately felt a numbness, like an ant crawling under the scalp, and the hairs on his body couldn't help but stand on. In the end, he couldn't bear the fear and shouted loudly hysterically, saying, "Ghosts! They are all ghosts of foreign soldiers back then!"

Just when the veteran called out, many people also found something unusual and shouted in horror. The timid ones had already ignored the orders of their superiors and wanted to escape back into the city wall. After all, in the eyes of ordinary people, people could still fight against each other, but ghosts were far more difficult to deal with than humans. For a moment, rumors about the foreign ghosts on the opposite army spread rapidly, and the entire capital defense army on the east wall was full of horror.

After hearing the rumors, those demon cultivators were shocked and suspicious. Although their cultivation level was low, there was not so many ghosts gathered together, and they could not even feel a trace of ghost energy. However, the vision in front of them did make them feel abnormal. On the contrary, the living foreigners were difficult to deal with, and they were very good at demon cultivators like the dead. So in order to restore the morale of the army, the demon cultivators got up from the city walls and prepared to use their magic skills to eliminate ghosts in front of the army.

When Xu Changqing heard the commotion that the other party was scaring him and causing, he simply followed their ideas. So he changed his magic tricks, which would make the foreign army and the Beiyang New Army slowly fester like corpses in front of the soldiers in the capital. Then he controlled the reptiles and beasts that had inhaled the fragrance of longevity and moved forward little by little, while the surrounding trees shook forcefully, making a sound similar to howling ghosts and wolves, creating an atmosphere in the ghost realm.

This change completely brought the capital army in front of them into the abyss of fear. They had no confidence to fight, and they didn't even want the foreign gun in their hands, and ran to the city with no way. When they passed the narrow city gate, the courage of their ancestors seemed to have returned to them. In a word, it was that whoever blocked my retreat would be to fight with him.
