Repugnant Gateway

Chapter 840 – The Great Powers

Xiao Feiyang’s body continued to struggle violently. However, under the control of one of An Zheng’s hands, even if he twisted his body, he would not be able to escape from An Zheng’s grasp. Those five fingers clamped down on his neck, firmly clamping onto him like an iron lock.

An Zheng swooped down from the sky and threw the warship in his right hand forward. When the warship fell to the ground less than a foot away from the ground, An Zheng kicked the warship. The massive warship flew out horizontally, maintaining a height of one foot above the ground. Opposite them was the huge army of 300,000 bear-men, looking like a surging wave.

Each of the bear-man soldiers was nearly two meters tall, and their bodies were extremely sturdy. Their bodies were covered in simple armors, but they were all extremely heavy. The battleship flew horizontally across the ground, moving straight ahead. Wherever it passed by, the bear-men were like wheat that had been neatly cut down, falling layer by layer onto the ground. As the battleship continued to crash into the ground, the bear-man army that was like a flood unexpectedly opened uassageway that was a hundred meters wide.

An Zheng grabbed Xiao Feiyang’s neck and landed on the huge beast that was at least 300 metres long. The beast raised its head and roared, spitting out a black light. That beam of light was three meters in diameter. One could only imagine what would happen if they were struck by it.

An Zheng stood behind Xiao Feiyang. His left hand held onto the back of Xiao Feiyang’s neck as he used his other hand to quickly reach forward … With a “pu” sound, his right hand grabbed Xiao Feiyang’s waist and directly pierced into his body. The Cultivation Power on his finger surged forward and directly poured into Xiao Feiyang’s Dantian Qi Sea.

Xiao Feiyang felt as though all the Cultivation Power in his body was about to explode, and had no choice but to vent. Subconsciously, he pushed his hands forward, releasing the violent Cultivation Power with his two hands.

Xiao Feiyang’s strength clashed against the black light beam of the demonic beast. As a cultivator of the Higher Completion Stage, Xiao Feiyang had used his full strength to shatter the black light beam. An Zheng lefrace of energy in Xiao Feiyang’s body and kicked him into the mouth of the demon beast.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

Xiao Feiyang’s body exploded in the stomach of the demonic beast. When the huge demonic beast fell down, many mountains collapsed. As his body fell to the ground, the ground trembled.

An Zheng stepped on the demonic beast’s stomach, causing its stomach to crack and blood to spray out. An Zheng pushed his hands forward, and the blood fog that filled the sky shot out like bullets. The bear-man soldier that was shouting was struck by the dense bullets layer by layer, causing An Zheng’s body to move forward along with the blood rain.

His body caught up to a drop of blood. The drop of blood that was shooting forward wasn’t very fast in his eyes. It was as if it was floating in the air. His fingers brushed against the drop of blood. It paused slightly, then turned purple.

The drop of purple blood sparkled for a moment before the purple light transformed intiny purple streak of lightning. As long as this drop of blood was near any other blood, the electric current would be transmitted out. In just a few seconds, the rain of blood that swept out was densely packed with purple electric currents.

A bear-man soldier rushed forward, wielding his heavy weapon as he rushed towards An Zheng. If blood bat’s IQ could be said to be low, then this person’s IQ could not even be considered half of blood bat’s. After they received the order, all they knew was to rush forward. They wouldn’t stop even if they were hanging in front of them.

The first one to rush in, the werebear soldier, suddenly stopped in his tracks, and subconsciously looked down at his body which now had a few sparkling purple lines. Those lines glittered with purple light, and even emitted light crackling sounds.

A second later, the body of the werebear soldier was torn to pieces. The tiny purple electric currents were like sharp saws that cut into the body of the werebear soldier. It only paused for a split-second before its body turned into many chunks of meat that fell to the ground.

This was like a killing array. An Zheng would obviously not be hurt by the purple lightning. After catching up to the warship that he had thrown out, An Zheng carried the warship and flew back. Large numbers of bear-men soldiers charged into the trap he left behind, and one after another, the bear-men soldiers fell to the ground, howling in pain.

In that short period of time, An Zheng killed hundreds of strong and sturdy bear-man soldiers. By the time he carried the battleship back to Mount Yuxian, half of the battleship in the air had already been shot down by the demonic beasts.

On the ground even further away, a row of seventy to eighty meters tall toad-like demon beasts lined up in a line. Then, they raised their heads and shot a black beam into the sky. The power of those beams of light was extremely terrifying. After being struck, the battleship fell down at a crooked angle.

An Zheng returned the warship in his hands, then went to snatch the other warships. Half an hour later, he had returned with more than a dozen battleships, but the situation was already out of his control. The blood bat began to attack An Zheng with all his might, and the bear-man army on the ground also began to move forward.

Aime like this, no matter how powerful a cultivator was, he wouldn’t be able to change the situation. An Zheng had no choice but to return to Mount Pan Xian and just as he entered, he saw Du Guangjun bringing a team of elite soldiers to fetch him.

“Master Hou, quickly enter the underground palace.”

They had already landed in the granary from another secret entrance, so they could only try their best to defend and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

When An Zheng entered the underground granary, he was immediately shocked. How was this an underground granary? The building underneath was built in an extremely sturdy manner. The two sides of the corridor were filled with weapons racks, and all sorts of weapons were placed neatly on top of them. He walked past rooms one by one and looked inside. They were filled with military supplies.

An Zheng continued to walk forward, and after turning a corner, he unconsciously stopped in his tracks. For a moment, An Zheng didn’t know what to say to describe everything that he saw. As they turned down the aisle, they came upon a circular railing, which was so large that it caused one’s hair to stand on end. An Zheng walked over and held onto the railing as he looked down. About ten meters below, what he could not see the end of it were the granary. Each granary was around ten meters in diameter and forty meters high, and if one looked forward, they would be unable to see clearly how many granaries there were.

“Those who know the secrets of the granary will say that the grain here is enough for the Northwest people to live for three years.”

An elegant man wearing a scholar’s robe walked over and cupped his fists towards An Zheng. “I am the commander here.

An Zheng supported him, “General, you’re welcome.”

Li Cungru turned around and pointed at the granary with no end in sight, “How could the grain stored here be enough for one to live in the Northwest for three years? Even if all the citizens of the Great Xixi came to the northwest, it would still be enough for them to live for three years. ”

An Zheng’s experience could not be compared to ordinary people, but he had never seen such a shocking scene.

“Why …” Da Xi is going to build sucuge underground fortress in the northwest? ”

“Initially, it was because of the Star Observation Pavilion.”

Li Cungru explained, “About three hundred years ago, the people of the Star Observation Pavilion predicted in a way that I do not understand, that the world was about to fall into chaos, and the Central Plains’ rich lands are the center of it all. At that time, the rich lands of the Central Plains will become an Asura Hell, and no one will be able to survive. He used almost two hundred years to build this underground fortress, and used almosundred years to fill up all the granaries here. ”

“From start to finish, there is only one army that is in charge of this matter. When he grows old, he will retire in this granary and change to a new person.” For the past three hundred years, the total number of people in this team has been around eighteen thousand, but the number of people who have died in old age here is far more than that. ”

An Zheng: “Aren’t you afraid of being implicated after telling me all of this?”

Li Cunru laughed, “Master Hou has already entered. Is there any meaning if I don’t say it? There’s not just food stored here... There was also a large amount of weapons and equipment, as well as the weapons and magical equipment developed by the weapons department. They were delivered in batches through secret channels. “Three hundred years ago, Da Xi’s old-fashioned equipment was still there. Do you want to take a look? That scene is even more shocking than this granary.”

However, An Zheng was too shocked. In front of him was an incomparably huge pit, and in order to guarantee its firmness, he had used a square boulder to build it. Two hundred years. This massive siege wasn’t something that just eighteen thousand soldiers could accomplish.

“Here... There are even commoners? ”

An Zheng asked tentatively.

Li Cungru turned around and walked to the left, “Master Hou, come with me and we’ll see.”

Following the direction of the huge granary, they walked for a long time before they finally left it. Ahead waigh, enclosed wall, separated from the world by two bronze gates. When An Zheng saw the two bronze doors, he couldn’t help but feel a little intimate. He couldn’t help but be slightly stunned. Li Cungru did not notice the slight change in An Zheng’s expression, so he opened the door.

Twenty soldiers pushed at a door and walked forward. It seemed like all of them had to struggle to push it open a little. An Zheng followed Li Xuejian into the bronze door, and was once again extremely shocked.

Behind the bronze door was another world.

Beyond the high wall walain, where a great city rose from the ground. This was underground. Judging from the size of the city, it should be enough for over ten million people to live in without feeling crowded.

“From generation to generation.”

Li Cungru said these four words.

“Since 300 years ago, when the first batch of 100,000 laborers were selected, their wives and children have all come to the northwest. At the time, they were nominally following the army, but halfway through, hundreds of thousands of people left and entered Mount Yuxian. The great army had helped them kill all the demonic beasts, as well as protect them and their fleet. They spent their lives building underground fortresses, and their descendants would continue to build one after another. In the past three hundred years, the number of people had increased by roughly forty times. The people here are still maintaining the defense and expansion of the underground fort. ”

“Even … “Reclamation.”

“This iroblem that took more than a hundred years to solve. The crops planted at the beginning died very quickly because they could not see the sun. Sunlight..... It’s too extravagant for us, and it’s even more extravagant for them. Over a hundred years, I have accumulated priceless experience. ”

“Right now, the underground granary is being used to grow and the output of the grain is enough for these millions of people to eat.”

“Look over there.”

Li Cunxiu pointed in another direction, “That is the workshop of the underground fort. The tools forged by the craftsmen here are much better in quality compared to the ones made outside. It’s been three hundred years, and people here are used to living underground. ”

He looked at An Zheng, “Master Hou, what do you think now?”

An Zheng looked towards the outside and seemed to be able to see the endless army of demon beasts attacking from outside.

“Think?”

An Zheng took a deep breath, “Don’t tell them.”

Then, An Zheng turned around and walked towards the top. When the bronze door closed, the troops on the side of the high wall had already gathered. The soldiers had a solemn expression and a decisive look in their eyes.

“This is a military matter.”

Li Cungru stretched out his arms, and his men replaced his armor. “People, after the military, there should be no worries.”
