Chapter 153: The Heart of the King

“Brothers, there are demonic creatures invading our territory. What should we do?” Old Li asked with a serious face.

Countless green-clad soldiers roared in unison upon hearing this, “Kill!”

The thunderous roars shook the heavens and echoed over the sky of Jinyang City.

Outside the Listen to Rain Pavilion, the face of Ghost Buddha showed surprise.

Old man Bai Li, revealed a complex expression of gratification and sorrow.

Old Li laughed heartily and then shouted again, “Then let’s kill!”

As his words fell, the shadowy spirit soldiers rushed towards the swarming insects in the city from all directions. The clash of metal echoed continuously, and the insect swarm wailed and shrieked as colorful liquids scattered in all directions.

In just a moment, various parts of Jinyang City were filled with the remnants of the insect swarm!

What threat could these tiny insects pose to the soldiers of the human race?

The second brother was amazed at the scene, feeling his blood boil.

Black Charcoal Head, was in deep thought, he was the vanguard commander of the Imperial Capital’s Liu Family Army and naturally could discern many things.

“Such a powerful and united army, which one could it be? I don’t recall Jinyang City having such a force.”

On the side, Qin Feng admired, “You wouldn’t know. This army is the Zhenling Army that fought a fierce battle against the Garuda Clan to protect the Southern Domain many years ago. They defended the Southern Domain with blood and flesh, repelling formidable enemies. Even in death, they continue to safeguard the region.”

“What?!” Black Charcoal Head was greatly shocked. In the Great Qian Empire, who wouldn’t know of the valiance of the Zhenling Army?

And who wouldn’t know the brutality of the battle at the Zhenling Pass?

One hundred thousand soldiers rushed to the battlefield, and fewer than a hundred survived.

“But, young master, why would their Yin spirits appear in Jinyang City? After the battle at the Zhenling Pass, they were practically annihilated.”

Yin spirits couldn’t stray too far from their place of death; this was common knowledge.

Jinyang City was thousands of miles away from the Zhenling Pass. The Yin spirits of these Spirit-Defending Army soldiers shouldn’t, and couldn’t, appear here!

“Regarding this, I have also read some books. If a person has lingering attachments before death, their Yin spirits may linger on the bodies of others after death,” Qin Feng said in a deep voice, his gaze involuntarily turning to the desolate yet upright figure.This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.

“Senior Li, why did you come to Jinyang City? And what lingering attachment or unfulfilled wish do you still have?” Qin Feng silently wondered.

According to what was said, Senior Li wasn’t injured by the opponent’s previous strike; he was already carrying severe injuries?

“This body can’t hold on any longer,” Old Li smiled bitterly.

Ghost Buddha glanced at the vast area outside the realm of the Four Infinite Buddhas, where countless Yin spirits and soldiers were densely packed, and said in a deep voice, “This damn old guy. When he refused to join us back then, I knew he would harm our big plan.”

While speaking, Ghost Buddha sensed the entire city of Jinyang. The faces of the three Buddha heads were all gloomy.

Although Dao Fu’s dragon corpse’s had been hindered by the unexpected dragon scales, it passed through a short period of heavenly thunder.

In Jinyang City, the seal hiding the thing should have loosened and leaked some of its aura.

However, after his continuous sensing, he clearly did not detect any aura of the seal!

“You old fellow, where did you hide King Garuda’s heart?!” he shouted.

Yes, the common thing that Ghost Buddha and others have been looking for is the heart of King Garuda that was dug out during the Zhenling Pass battle!

Most of King Garuda’s formidable power was gathered in his heart, and as long as the heart was not destroyed, King Garuda could be reborn using it.

In the Battle of Zhenling Pass, with the assistance of the dragon race, they fought fiercely against the Garuda tribe with the elite forces of The Great Qian.

However, the Grand Qian Imperial National Teacher set a trap, taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the Garuda King, allowing the Southern Territory’s Command to extract the opponent’s heart.

As a result, the Garuda King’s strength plummeted, and the Garuda clan, fearing the situation, fought and retreated. They were forced to retreat from the Zhenling Pass and returned to the Tianling Mountain!

“The king’s heart possesses tremendous power. If any demon or monster can swallow it and withstand the burning curse, they can overcome multiple restraints in one go.

Years ago, you used a scheme to take away the Garuda King’s heart.

Many entities have been eyeing it, but that heart seemed to disappear into thin air.

Not to mention leaking its aura, even if I wanted to perform divination, I couldn’t see through it?”

The old man Bai Li said casually, “Perhaps I have already destroyed it.”

Ghost Buddha sneered, “Old man, you might be able to deceive others with such words, but do you think you can deceive me?

If the Garuda King’s heart were so easily destroyed, you wouldn’t have been able to take it away from the battlefield back then.

If my guess is correct, you’ve hidden the heart for so many years simply because you wanted to wait for its power to weaken, and then find a way to destroy it.

That heart must still exist, and it’s definitely here in the Jinyang City!”
