Chapter 506 The Secret of the Wu Clan's Extinction
Chapter 506 The Secret of the Wu Clan's Extinction
Ye Feng is no longer the time-traveling rookie he was half a year ago.
After six months of struggling in the Yunhai Sect, he has become the time-traveling Old Bai.
Both the witch clan and witchcraft are very mysterious in the eyes of the world, and are even labeled as "evil".
Ye Feng has the ambition to collect all the martial arts and rare treasures in the world, but he has never thought of attacking the witch clan.
This will bring about fatal disaster.
The witch said she wanted to help these poor girls dissolve the power in their bodies.
This is what the witch herself said.
Ye Feng naturally wouldn't believe it easily.
The witch has been sealed in the jade statue of the witch god for more than 20,000 years. Her psychology may have been distorted a long time ago. Would she be so kind as to help a group of girls she has never met before?
Ye Feng didn't dare to agree to take the witch away easily, nor did he dare to refuse easily.
If what the witch just said was true, she had a way to dissolve the power in the bodies of these girls who were cauldrons. If the witch was not brought along, these more than 300 girls probably would not survive for long.
After pondering for a moment, Ye Feng decided to first listen to what this witch had done in the past before making a judgment.
The witch seemed reluctant to talk about the past.
She said slowly, "Sir, it's been a long time. Does what I did back then really matter?"
Ye Feng nodded and said, "It may not be important to you, but it is very important to me."
"why."
"I have some understanding of the cultivation techniques of this world. To be honest, I am a little wary of ancient witchcraft because it is too mysterious. I can't tell whether you want to save these girls or are just using them to achieve your goals like those beasts.
I can only judge whether your heart is good or evil based on what you did back then."
The witch was silent for a moment, then said, "Over the past few years, aren't you worried that I might tell you some lies?"
Ye Feng smiled and said, "You are a witch of the White Witch Clan. Lying and cheating are not in line with your status. Of course, if you really lied and I didn't notice, it would be considered a skill of yours."
The stone statue of the witch god nodded slowly and said, "Okay, I will tell you why my tribe sealed me in the jade statue of the witch god.
My witch clan has a long history, and witchcraft is the origin of all things in the world. Over the long years, the witch clan has been intermittent, sometimes prosperous and sometimes declining. In the era when I lived, the witch clan had already declined.
Our witch clan has six major branches, namely black witch, white witch, red witch, Miao witch, Gu witch and spirit witch.
I am the 99th generation witch of the Baiwu clan, and my name is Bai Ruoshui.
The White Witch Clan gives birth to a saint approximately every five hundred years. At that time, the White Witch Clan had already existed in the human world for about fifty thousand years.
Everything that rises must fall, this is the law of all things, and even the witch clan cannot break this curse.
Ten thousand years before I was born, the human civilization in Middle-earth began to grow strong again after experiencing a period of decline that lasted for tens of thousands of years.
The number of human monks increased day by day, and the human tribes began to be unified.
Afterwards, a protracted war broke out between the human race and the witch race."
Su Xiaoli said, "The war you're talking about should be the Third Human-Witch War recorded in historical records. It started 35,000 years ago and lasted for 3,000 years."
"Well, in that three-thousand-year-long war between humans and witches, the human race ultimately won, and the six major witch clans were all driven into Wushan. Since then, the human race has become the only dominant force, occupying all nine provinces, and the six major witch clans are no longer able to compete with the human race.
For thousands of years thereafter, the six major witch tribes were constantly in civil strife as they fought for living space.
First came the Black Witch Clan and the Gu Witch Clan. Because the witchcraft they practiced was too cruel, they were destroyed by the four clans together.
Following them are the Chiwu tribe and the Lingwu tribe.
When I was born, the other four tribes had been destroyed, and only my Baiwu tribe coexisted with the Miaowu tribe.
Later I became a witch of the White Witch Clan.
At this time, the Dayu Dynasty of the human race dispatched tens of thousands of armored troops and joined forces with tens of thousands of human cultivators to go into the mountains to wipe out the Witch Clan.
The White and Miao witches joined forces, gathering all the sword-wielding warriors and wizards of the two tribes to fight the human coalition forces at Yuelong Pass.
Su Xiaoli said, "Yuelong Pass? So you lived during the Fourth Human-Witch War. From what I know, the human coalition was defeated in the Battle of Yuelong Pass."
Ruoshui Witch said in a somewhat miserable voice, "The human coalition was defeated, but the witch coalition also suffered heavy losses. After this battle, the combined number of the Baiwu and Miaowu tribes is less than 100,000, and most of them are old and weak.
The human race was unwilling to accept defeat, and the following year the emperor of the Dayu Dynasty once again assembled hundreds of thousands of armored troops and made a comeback.
We no longer had the power to resist, so the Miao Wu clan and most of the Bai Wu clan chose to surrender to the Dayu Dynasty. From then on, they paid tribute every year and were gradually assimilated by the human race.
I chose not to surrender. I led about 10,000 of my people out of Wushan and quietly arrived at the Tianyun Mountains."
Ye Feng frowned and said, "Miss Ruoshui, you've said so much, but you've only been talking about the history of the Wu Clan. You still haven't explained why your people sealed your soul."
"After I led my people to Tianyun Mountain, we soon discovered several huge underground spaces. To avoid being hunted down by the human race, we have been living in these underground caves.
But... we were only quiet for ten years before some human cultivators discovered us.
The Human King sent people here to ask us to submit, but I didn't agree. However, many of my people no longer wanted to fight with the people of Middle-earth."
"Just because you disagree, your people sealed you up?" Ye Feng frowned.
"No, it's because I want to make one last stand. Although the Wu Clan has six branches, we all come from the ancient Wu Clan. We have the same beliefs, but we practice different witchcraft.
My White Witch Clan collected the secret techniques of other witch clans at that time.
I intend to utilize the Black Witch's necromancy, the Spirit Witch's celestial spirit magic, the Gu Witch's poison magic, the Miao Witch's spirit summoning magic, the Red Crow's black magic, and my White Witch's life magic to summon the ancient legend of the Witch Clan's underworld undead army to fight against the human race."
"The six poisons become one, transcending the cycle of reincarnation and allowing the dead to return to the human world from the underworld? Could this legend be true?" A hint of solemnity appeared on Su Xiaoli's delicate face.
"Yes, according to the Wu clan's legends, that's exactly what happened. I did that... but later I discovered that the so-called power of the underworld to return the dead to the human world was just a scam. What they summoned weren't the souls of the underworld, but... the souls of the human world."
"The dead in the human world? What does that mean?" Su Xiaoli asked.
"White Fox, you should understand."
"Hiss...you mean...zombies?"
"Well, the so-called Undead Army is actually the undead zombies created from the bodies of mortals after they are killed."
When Su Xiaoli heard this, his expression gradually darkened.
Of course she knew how scary zombies were.
Especially the zombies at the level of Corpse King and Corpse God, they are simply terrifying.
The art of zombies is also known as the art of the dead. For many years, both the righteous and the evil sects have been cracking down on any monks who practice the art of the dead.
As soon as you find the undead monks, eliminate them immediately.
Even though the righteous and evil paths are now at loggerheads with each other and will fight to the death, they have had two large-scale collaborations.
One was the battle of hunting immortals more than two thousand years ago.
The first time was much longer ago, when all the races in the world united to encircle and suppress the undead monks.
Su Xiaoli said slowly: "You wanted to refine an undead army composed of zombies, but your people disagreed, so you sealed it?"
The jade statue shook its head gently and said, "No, no..."
