Chapter 435 Ancient Snake Man

The gray underworld is full of gloomy cold air.

The souls, like walking corpses, walked towards the majestic Fengdu City under the leadership of the Yinsi guide.

"If you have a bad moral character, you will be punished for three years before entering reincarnation again."

In the judge's hall, Chang Gu was dressed in a gray robe of an underworld official, holding a judge's pen in his hand and scribbling furiously to judge the souls who came in one after another.

"If you have good merit, you can become an official in the divine court, or you can directly enter reincarnation."

"If you have good Yin virtue, you can enter the Yin Division as an official, or you can directly enter reincarnation."

As the judge's pen continued to draw ink, the fate of each soul was determined.

Yan Guben was the old patriarch of the Teng tribe, who unfortunately died in a war more than ten years ago.

After the soul returned, he was appointed as a judge of the Yin Division by Qin Yu, and his official position was the seventh rank of the Yin Division.

While Chang Gu was writing furiously, a commotion arose behind the long queue.

A fierce breath of fire rushed in all directions, and at that moment the temperature of Fengdu, which was originally cold, seemed to suddenly rise.

Many souls fled in panic.

Several Yin generals immediately led thousands of Yin soldiers to suppress it.

"I am the marshal of the fifth battalion of Shenting Zhongtan, with an official position of third rank! Why don't you get out of the way quickly!"

I saw a red child's figure, holding a fire-pointed spear, wrapped around Tian Ling, riding on a hot wheel, with a Qiankun hoop on his shoulders, revealing a domineering and unparalleled power.

Seeing this, Chang Gu put away the judge's pen and stood up to check.

"Judge from the Lower Yin Division, I have met the Marshal of the Fifth Battalion of Zhongtan. What is the business of the Marshal coming here?"

Chang Gu changed his majestic look from the past and now smiled and said.

"Your Majesty has newly established the upper, middle and lower altars of troops. Each marshal is responsible for recruiting troops. This marshal is here to recruit troops."

Nezha put away his fire-tipped spear, put his hands on his hips, and shouted loudly.

Upon hearing this, Chang Gu asked: "Does the marshal have a recruiting seal?"

Nezha frowned and took out the appointment decree of the marshal of the fifth battalion in Zhongtan.

After knocking on it, Chang Gu shook his head and said, "This is a recruiting seal, it must be!"

When Nezha heard this, he immediately became angry.

"How dare you disrespect His Majesty's words?"

The momentum instantly overwhelmed everyone present and could not lift their heads.

"In that case... according to the rules, if each ministry and department wants to recruit soldiers, it takes ten meritorious deeds to recruit one soldier. How many marshals do you need?"

Merit?

Nezha was stunned when he heard this.

He came out and arrived, but he didn't know what his merits were.

"You can get meritorious service by killing the enemy and plundering the land." Seeing the confusion on the other side's face, Chang Gu couldn't help but explain aloud.

"Is there any other way?" Nezha just sat upright on the table with an attitude of not leaving today if he couldn't satisfy me.

Looking at the long queue at the rear, Yan Gu felt a real headache for a moment.

In the end, there was really no other way, so he approved a hundred people who were originally going to join the divine court as officials and gave them to Nezha.

These one hundred places were originally either to enter the Divine Court and become the smallest official, or to become the lowest heavenly soldier of the Divine Court.

So the impact is not big.

Nezha, who had been grinding for a long time, had no choice but to leave after taking this hundred spots.

There is no difference between these one hundred soldiers and none.

After returning to Shenting, all these 100 places were included in the Shenting military register.

Nezha, a dignified marshal with only a hundred soldiers under his command, was not in a good mood.

Just when he was thinking of ways to recruit troops, Jinsha General Tu Wu found him.

"You still need meritorious service if you want to recruit troops." Huang Shajiang Tu Wu said with a smile.

Nezha glanced at him and said coldly: "Now that the world is at peace and there is no war, where can we get meritorious deeds?"

"Your Majesty once ordered me to search for the land of yellow sand. Isn't this an opportunity?"

Seeing Tu Wu's serious expression, Nezha also became interested.

"You must not be looking for me just to talk nonsense, so that means you have found Huangshadi?"

Tu Wu nodded slightly: "South of Muzhou, passing through the mountains, is the desert area, but it is occupied by other races."

As soon as Nezha heard this, he immediately pulled Tu Wu's shoulders and shouted: "Let's go now!"

"Marshal, don't worry, you've just returned and equipped the hundred heavenly soldiers before leaving." Tu Wu said in shock.

"This Marshal is here for the first time and I don't know much about him. Please tell me."

"The Divine Court has recently issued a new heavenly weapon system for the upper, middle and lower altars."

"The five battalions of the Zhongtan can include the Heavenly Soldiers that destroy demons, the Heavenly Soldiers that calm demons, the Heavenly Soldiers of Red Fire, the Heavenly Soldiers that wave flags, and the Heavenly Soldiers that shake drums..."

"Among them, the Red Fire Heavenly Soldier and the Marshal must be the most suitable."

After listening to what Tu Wu said, Nezha immediately took the one hundred rosters to the Tianbing Mansion to collect and compile them.

Finally, he got back a hundred signs of the Red Fire Heavenly Soldiers.

As long as you integrate this heavenly weapon card, you can obtain the equipment, weapons, magic weapons, abilities, etc. corresponding to the heavenly soldiers.

"lets go."

After having a hundred red fire heavenly soldiers, Nezha and Tu Wu rode the clouds all the way south to the land of yellow sand that Tu Wu mentioned.

……

……

The south of Muzhou is surrounded by mountains, which can be regarded as the mountain range of the Dongshan Mountains.

After passing through the thick greenery and gray rocks, after crossing the mountains, what appeared in front of us was the desert filled with yellow sand.

Looking around, there is only wind and sand left between heaven and earth.

Even in winter, this desert is dry and hot.

There is no human habitation in the desert.

However, ferocious beasts appear from time to time.

"Where are the enemies? I can't even see a shadow. Big guy, are you bluffing me?"

At the edge of the desert, a group of strange figures appeared.

Nezha looked around and saw almost no shadows in the endless desert.

"Underground in the yellow sand is civilization."

"I felt the huge vitality gathering under the yellow sand."

Tu Wu closed his eyes and felt the breath of the desert. There seemed to be countless nests and buildings under the ground.

There are countless lives.

The civilization in the desert is hidden underground in the desert.

"Are we going to go underground?" Nezha asked blankly.

"Let's arrest some people first to understand the situation."

Tu Wu looked around while carrying the golden sand halberd.

Nezha nodded slightly, and the two of them led a hundred heavenly soldiers into the desert and hid.

……

……

Golden sand desert.

It is thousands of miles wide and covers an area of ​​two million square kilometers.

There are almost no oases in the entire desert, and the water source is only 2% less. It is firmly controlled by the owner of this desert.

"——Ancient Snake Tribe."

In ancient times, the gods and demons of the past gave birth to many descendants, and they easily mastered the laws of heaven and earth.

Therefore he is called God.

Gods come in all shapes and forms, and the ancient snake-people are descendants of gods.

Descendants of God.

No matter how old the bloodline is, it has been tens of thousands of years.

The former ancestor god used his identity as a seed and planted it in this desert.

Since then, many mineral veins and treasures have been born in this yellow sand desert.

Flame Sun Crystal, Bingxin Stone, Glazed Mineral Mine, Fire Heart Flame, Desolate Flame Stone...

These have almost become the resources that the ancient snake people relied on to survive in the yellow sand desert. They relied on these resources to cultivate and grow, and slowly came to rule the desert. They listened to the instructions of their ancestors, and lived in the desert for generations without paying attention to the outside world.

After the great catastrophe of heaven and earth, the 9052nd generation of the desert snake-man royal family gave birth to an ancient snake-man whose bloodline returned to his ancestors.

He is now the king of the ancient snake people.

Under the desert, there are more than 900 snake-man cities, almost all over the entire yellow sand desert.

Sand Rock City.

Located to the north of the desert, under the yellow sand near the mountain border.

It's an underground city.

There are more than two million ancient snake people living in Sandstone City, which is considered an above-average city.

The city lord Yan Ding has been the lord of Shayan City for five hundred years.

The ancient snake people have a very long lifespan, with an average lifespan of about 1,500 years. Not only that, their reproductive capabilities are also very strong.

Almost every female snake can give birth to about six snakes every year.

However, the growth cycle begins at around the age of fifty, when the adult body is at its strongest.

Each female snake has a limited number of children in her lifetime, and irreversible damage will occur every time she gives birth.

The stronger one is, the more damage it can withstand.

Among the ancient snake people, the status of the female snake person is not low. If the current ancient snake person king's talent is not too strong and his bloodline returns to his ancestors, logically speaking, the ancient snake person king should be a female snake person.

At this time in a dark and humid cave.

Two snake-men were intertwined, surrounded by some fishy mucus.

"City Lord! City Lord!" A voice appeared outside the cave.

Yan Ding frowned, cursed secretly, and then rushed out angrily.

"What's wrong? What makes you so reckless! Without a satisfactory explanation from this city lord, you can't even think of leaving today!"

"Return...back to the city lord! Strange traces were found in the nearby area. They seem to be from the human race. They are not weak at all!"

"Human race?"

Yan Ding was stunned.

How many years has it been in the Yellow Sand Desert since I haven’t heard of this strange race?

It seems that he has never seen a human race since he was born.

Don’t listen to what you hear in ethnic heritage, books, and ancestral traditions.

He frowned and said: "Order General Sha Yan to lead the troops to capture those humans to the Lord of this city."

He waved his hand and drove away the snake man.

The Second General of Shayan is the two most famous snake men in Shayan City besides him, the city lord.

One person can burn all the yellow sand by practicing the Dharma.

If a person cultivates his body, his body can flow through the lava.

The strength is second only to him.

……

……

Night comes, when the sun disappears, the desert plunges into darkness, and endless cold sweeps over.

At this time, in a pile of rocks on the desert.

Nezha couldn't help but complain: "No wonder the races in this desert live underground. It's extremely hot during the day and extremely cold at night."

He can still feel the malice from the temperature and weather without using his magic power.

But even if he doesn't use magic power, this little temperature won't affect him.

However, it still had some influence on the hundreds of heavenly soldiers.

Everyone lit a few fires to dispel the chill a little.

In the dark night, in the desert, the light here is the most conspicuous.

A few hundred meters away from here, bursts of "shuzzy sounds" could be heard.

The sound was dense, like the singing of a summer night, and it was particularly harsh if heard close by.

Nezha, who was resting in the area surrounded by rocks, suddenly opened his eyes and said in a deep voice, "There is movement."

As soon as the words fell, the red fire heavenly soldiers all around opened their eyes and clenched the flame spears in their hands.

Tu Wu nodded slightly: "You feel it too? There are many auras approaching us."

Nezha nodded slightly.

"Don't worry about it for now, I'll take care of it." Tu Wu said and closed his eyes again.

Surrounding the rock piles, sand soldiers four to five meters tall continued to gather, with armors and scimitars, as hard as steel bodies.

The moment dozens of sand soldiers appeared, they formed a circle and formed a defensive posture facing the surroundings.

The second general Shayan in the rear immediately exclaimed: "What kind of method is this?"

"These humans are not simple, be careful."

Another person spoke up.

The two of them waved their hands, and hundreds of ancient snakemen raised their fire attack weapons to kill a group of sand soldiers.

Following the dense crowd of snakemen, they attacked towards the sand soldiers.

In an instant, the sand soldiers moved, as if someone was controlling them. Almost all the sand soldiers behaved the same way.

At the same time, he swung his long sword, and the countless swords that looked like a forest of cold light slashed at the snake man who was rushing over.

A large number of snakemen were cut off at the waist and fell into the yellow sand.

Some snake-men relied on their bodies to resist, while others relied on their agility to escape.

Some snake men also sent out a spell to smash the scimitars of the sand soldiers.

Nezha and others who were observing behind found that these snake people not only knew how to practice physical exercises but also knew how to use magic.

It seems really unusual.

Tu Wu's realm is the seventh level of extraordinary, and the realm of the summoned sand soldiers is random, and the highest will not exceed Tu Wu's.

Among the dozens of sand soldiers, the tallest one is dozens of feet tall, and his realm is also at the seventh level of the extraordinary.

After several rounds of fighting, the bodies of ancient snakemen were scattered all around.

There were only about twenty sand soldiers left.

But almost all of them are fifth to seventh level sand soldiers, and they are very powerful.

Second General Shayan looked at the rear for a long time and estimated that the opponent's strongest one was the tallest sand soldier.

"That sand soldier's aura is the strongest, but it's too rigid. If you and I join forces, we can definitely kill it!"

The two people who felt they had figured out the way directly ordered all the remaining five hundred snakemen to dispatch, and the two of them also held weapons to kill.

One person held a staff and the other held a giant ax. They arrived near the extraordinary seventh-level sand soldier at a speed that was difficult to detect with the naked eye.

A stream of mana and rich fire elements condensed from the staff of one of the two sandstone generals.

Chains condensed by flames flew out and wrapped around the sand soldier.

One after another, the body of the sand soldier was soon covered with chains of flames.

Seeing that the enemy was successfully comforted, another Shayan general jumped into the air with a red-hot ax and slashed it violently.

Those explosive muscles can tell how powerful this blow is.

"boom--"

After a loud noise.

The force of over 10,000 kilograms cut off the extraordinary seventh-level sand soldier.

"That's all."

Second General Sha Yan threw his head back and laughed, with a sarcastic look in his eyes.

"Om..."

At this moment, a small sound came from the surrounding sand.

I saw the yellow sand gathering together, as if time was reshaping, the extraordinary seventh-level sand soldier, countless yellow sand condensed, and its head was born again.

That's right!

Tu Wu can selectively resurrect dead soldiers.

Only those sand soldiers who were completely blown away could not be resurrected, and there was no limit to those who had their limbs and heads severed.

It will only consume some mana.

Seeing the resurrected behemoth, General Shayan was momentarily stunned.
