Chapter 493: Even the Protagonist Aura Couldn't Protect the Protagonist

"Baijing Prefecture has already turned into Baijing Pit. That spirit calamity is truly terrifying." Xiao Fan's expression was also filled with awe. He now possessed the strength of a Fifth Rank, entirely thanks to the camp commander of his military camp, who was amazed by his presence and considered him a great genius.

Thanks to the other party's connections, Xiao Fan obtained a large amount of resources, even reaching the potential of a King Rank in the Danqing Sky. As a result, the original Qianxin Jue was no longer useful, and he switched to a cultivation technique called Tongshen Fa. This technique had a similar effect to Qianxin Jue, except it could raise the potential of a spirit to the Emperor Rank at most.

Because of this, he was able to smoothly reach the Fifth Rank, and even advancing to the Sixth and Seventh Ranks was just a matter of time. This promotion speed left him a bit dazed, completely not expecting to achieve such an efficiency in such a short time.

Now, he had been transferred to Baijing Prefecture with the army, not just him, but troops from all over the country had already gathered, forming a defensive formation, waiting for the demons to reappear and be exterminated. Everything would be over.

In Xiao Fan's understanding, the spirit calamity was not that bad. It wasn't out of arrogance, but rather due to misinformation.

Although many Eighth Rank Spirit Summoners died, and even a Ninth Rank Spirit Summoner was lost, but in exchange, the strongest of the demons was eliminated, which was very worth it.

Indeed, in the external propaganda, it had developed to this extent, directly belittling the enemy and elevating themselves. Otherwise, it would be openly said that the enemy stood there, allowing their Ninth Rank Imperial Spirit to be attacked and not be defeated, and in the end, one move killed the Spirit and the Spirit Summoner, along with forty thousand soldiers, wouldn't it?

If the other party had not refused to cede territory and pay compensation, those Ninth Rank Spirit Summoners could have directly sold land to save their lives.

"Why do I feel something is off?" Danqing Tian said with a muffled voice, always feeling that something was wrong with the spirit calamity.

"What's off? The court wouldn't lie to us, would it? Even if they did, it doesn't matter. Three million troops have already gathered. How many forces can the demons have without a Ninth Rank array?" Xiao Fan didn't care much about these things.

Although he was a Fifth Rank, he was artificially accelerated, and his age was only fifteen or sixteen, without much experience.

If he had reached the Fifth Rank through his own efforts, the experiences he had gone through would definitely be enough, and he would definitely feel something was off, then rely on the protagonist aura to turn the tables and counter-kill.

Danqing Tian was just about to speak when he heard a long horn sound.

"Gather, hurry back." Saying this, Xiao Fan hurriedly took Danqing Tian back to his camp.

From then on, Danqing Tian didn't say anything else and just followed, what else could he do?

The military order was not a joke, and in this time it was different from the past. If delayed, one would really be executed immediately.

On the road, there were also many soldiers rushing back with him, mostly newly arrived Spirit Summoners, most of whom came to see the Baijing Pit, a kind of spectacle.

After returning, they just in time for the assembly.

"Back, quickly take your place, the Demons are coming." The camp commander did not blame him but quickly had him prepare.

"Commander, how do you know?" Xiao Fan asked with some curiosity.

"Didn't you see that black lightning in the sky? Every time it appears, it represents the appearance of the Demons. Unfortunately, we don't know where the Demons are, otherwise, we would directly strike at their heart, kill them to the last man, and there would be no need to wait here for so many days." The camp commander's words were with confidence.

Apart from them, the other camps were also assembling, but with varying efficiency.

Among these people were forced disciples of sects and nobles who had no choice but to come, none of whom had ever been managed this way before, and naturally, many were slow.

There were also a large number of commoners, many of whom were originally from the military, and some were conscripted for food, without adequate training, and naturally, many were slow.

Fortunately, the overall efficiency was still there, at least under high-pressure policies, none of them lagged.

The preparations were complete, and along with the soldiers, they had assembled most of the Spirit Summoners, from the lowest to the highest ranks, with nine out of ten present. It was crucial to quell the demonic threat and eradicate the evil forces; only then could they find true peace of mind, or else they wouldn't even be able to eat in peace.

So, everyone had to be present. What if someone was fighting fiercely on the front lines while someone else was launching a surprise attack from behind?

In a world where the weak are prey to the strong, anything is possible, and righteousness is merely a unified interest.

Xiao Fan was actually a bit nervous, as this was the first time he had seen such a grand spectacle.

Sure enough, the sky began to tear apart, and everything seemed so oppressive.

The leading Ninth Rank Spirit Summoners and their spirits had already cast numerous secret techniques to bolster themselves, their auras stirring the entire battlefield. Even as allies, the pressure was palpable.

However, this pressure was a good thing, fully showcasing their strength.

"Level 3 firepower, high-energy sound wave resonance projector."

Suddenly, a mechanical voice rang out, startling everyone who was on edge.

A massive black void tore through the space, covering the entire sky.

All the Spirit Summoners reacted, charging toward the void. No one needed to guess that it was a demon's scheme. Though they didn't understand the specifics of sound wave resonance, they knew it was definitely an attack.

In the next instant, visible ripples spread downward from the black void in the sky, like continuous ripples falling from above.

The entire wave of ripples covered the camp of three million people.

"I feel a bit off." Xiao Fan also sensed something was wrong and decisively activated his Martial Spirit Body to share Danqing Tian's power, making him feel a bit better.

Then, he suddenly felt as if it was raining, but when he reached out to touch it, it was a red liquid with a bloody smell.

"Blood?" He quickly looked up and saw that the Ninth Rank, Eighth Rank, and other Spirit Summoners who had charged forward had all exploded into blood mist, falling down.

"Not good, this is a trap. We need to—"

Before Xiao Fan could finish his sentence, his pupils dilated as he saw the ordinary people and Spirit Summoners below the Third Rank in his camp having their flesh fall off, as if it couldn't stick to their bodies, flowing down like water, leaving only complete skeletons behind.

At that moment, he realized just how terrifying the spirit calamity was.

He decisively turned to flee, with Danqing Tian following, equally horrified. He didn't even know what had happened, but the camp was already experiencing mass deaths.

And the strength of those dying was increasing. Initially, it was those below the Third Rank, but now it had become those below the Fourth Rank. If they couldn't escape the covered area, their fate would also be death.

But the more they ran, the more desperate they became, because the area was too vast. Fifth Rank and Sixth Rank Spirit Summoners were running, but it was meaningless, as they found themselves trapped.

Unable to break through this region.

Xiao Fan ran to the boundary, but when he tried to cross it, he found himself on the opposite side.

This had become a loop, a cycle that no one could escape from.

His face was extremely grim, and his entire body felt as if it was falling apart.

"Even Fifth Rank Spirit Summoners can't resist it anymore?" Xiao Fan muttered to himself. The reason he was still alive was that the Martial Spirit Body allowed him to share Danqing Tian's strength; otherwise, he would have been reduced to a skeleton by now.

But soon, his vision began to blur, as the intensity continued to rise, and he could barely hold on.

He was tougher than the average Fifth Rank, but even the strongest was still just Fifth Rank. Blood began to seep through his skin, and his consciousness gradually slipped away.

"I don't accept this..." Xiao Fan, lying on the ground, felt deeply unwilling. He was so close to success, yet he had ended up here.

If he had three more days, he could have broken through to the Sixth Rank. At that point, he might have lived longer, even if he couldn't escape.

Sixth Rank, Seventh Rank, Eighth Rank, Ninth Rank—intangible sound waves continued to rise in intensity, and the entire area fell into a deadly silence.

"Elimination complete, awaiting task evaluation."

"Department of Souls, enter the scene to receive all labor skeleton soldiers."

"Disinfection preparation, further disinfection after receiving labor to prevent the spread of plague."

One command after another was executed.
