Chapter 530: Chapter 526: Pretend to be a Ghost Chapter 530: Chapter 526: Pretend to be a Ghost “This is an underground stone chamber near the city. You can rest here for a while. When the prohibition on the gate disappears, immediately infiltrate the southern part of the city. As for how to contact the insider information, it's in this jade slip. Lu Xianzhi, I entrust this to you.” The old man in the yellow robe took out a jade slip and handed it over to Lu Huaming.

The other four did not say anything.

Among the five, only Lu Huaming comes from the Great Tang Dynasty Government, so Cheng Yaojin and the old man in the yellow robe naturally trust him the most.

“Fellow Cultivators, a snake without a head is ineffective. Lu Xianzhi's cultivation level may not be the highest among you, but he has executed the most missions and has a strong ability to adapt to the enemy. Would you all agree for Lu Xianzhi to take the lead in this mission?” The old man in the yellow robe looked at the other four and said.

“Brother Lu is the disciple of Duke Cheng with superior skills in strategic planning and battle command, it couldn't be better to have him lead us.” Shen Luo agreed.

The other three also nodded one after another in agreement.

The old man in the yellow robe saw this and showed a faint smile. A flash of yellow light shimmered and he disappeared from the stone chamber.

“Thank you all for your trust. This mission cannot be accomplished by me alone, I ask for your assistance.” Lu Huaming bowed to the other four.

“Brother Lu, don't be so formal. Master and the old man in the yellow robe have given you command of the mission, so feel free to proceed. We will surely follow your lead.” Dan Yangzi said with a smile.

“Thank you. The mission will start in three days as per Master and the old man in the yellow robe. During this time, let's rest here and discuss the specifics when the mission starts.” Lu Huaming replied.

Everyone had the same idea, they each found a place in the stone chamber and started to cultivate with their eyes closed.

Shen Luo sat down in the corner of the stone chamber, took the Ink Armor Shield out of the Storage Talisman, and quickly started refining it using the Ninety-Nine Wealth Technique.

Everyone else appeared to be doing the same, preparing for the upcoming great battle.

Three days later.

In the early morning, the quietness of Chang'an City was shattered by a chime from the Ci'en Temple.

Outside the Zhuque Gate to the Imperial City in the North City, there were nearly ten thousand officers of the Feather Forest Army and the Dragon Martial Guard each, all in full armor, ready for deployment.

In the open ground in front of the convoy, there were several hundred monks and freelance cultivators from various places in Chang'an. All were neatly arranged, waiting for the command to march.

Zhou Meng and others were also in the line, but their company commander was an older man in a gray robe.

“Brother Zhao, what's going on? It looks like there's going to be a big action …” Zhou Meng turned to Zhao TingSheng and asked.

After such a long time of fighting side by side, their relationship had changed quite a lot and had become much closer.

“I don't know, I just got the sudden notice to assemble last night, there was no prior warning.” Zhao TingSheng shook his head, looking somewhat solemn.

“I haven't seen Elder Shen for a while. He's not been taking us on missions for quite a long time.” Zhou Meng scanned the surroundings again and said.

“Elder Shen is not the same as us, I guess he has gone to carry out some special mission again.” Zhao TingSheng guessed.

“But to be honest, I feel safer when we're with Elder Shen.” Zhou Meng chuckled.

As soon as he spoke, a middle-aged banner commander standing a short distance in front turned his head to look at them, signaling them to quiet down with his eyes.

Zhou Meng and Zhao TingSheng immediately fell silent, staring straight ahead without distraction.

Just then, a few red lights floated down from the high altitude and fell on the city wall of Zhuque Gate, overlooking everyone.

Ten thousand Great Tang warriors saw this, and with all their fists pounding on their chests, they collectively saluted the city wall in a synchronized manner, creating quite a majestic scene.

“We pay our respects to Duke Cheng and all the Elders.” The hundreds of monks also bowed their fists towards the city wall and shouted in unison.

Following this, the cries of ten thousand warriors rang out:

“Valiant, Valiant, Valiant…”

With each shout, a surging wave of fighting spirit began to spread across the entire square.

“Gentlemen, Chang'an has been suffering from the ghost menace for too long. I know you all have been holding back a lot of anger. Today is the opportunity for you to vent that anger and also the day for us to eradicate the ghost menace in one fell swoop. Would you dare to follow me into the southern part of the city and completely drive these filthy creatures out of Chang'an?” Cheng Yaojin swept his gaze over the crowd and roared.

“We are willing to follow Duke Cheng to eradicate ghosts, with no fear of death…”

“No fear of death…”

“No fear of death…”

A wave of resolute responses echoed, lingering for a long time.

Cheng Yaojin looked very pleased, he stroked his beard and nodded with a full face of smiles. The old man in the yellow robe and other people beside him looked at each other and also revealed a trace of smiles in their eyes.

“Once the ghost menace in Chang'an is exterminated, we will celebrate at a banquet. Let's go!”

Cheng Yaojin raised his arm and gave the order. The team of cultivators and the Great Tang soldiers in the square assembled and began marching towards the southern part of the city.

At the same time, in a dark stone room underground in an old house in the southern part of the city.

Shen Luo and the other four were still sitting there with closed eyes, in a state of meditation.

At this moment, a yellow light suddenly shone on the door of the stone chamber, and complex prohibition runes surfaced, beginning to shimmer weakly like fireflies.

The first to notice the anomaly was Ge Tianqing, who was the highest in cultivation among them. However, he just opened his eyes to take a look and then continued to cultivate, retracting all the black electrical strands radiating from his body.

Soon after that, Shen Luo also opened his eyes and looked at the prohibition runes on the door. He subconsciously started analyzing the patterns on the runes but forgot to alert the others.

However, immediately after, Lu Huaming's voice rang out: “It looks like the prohibition on this door is about to disappear. It's time for us to act.”

As soon as he spoke, Dan Yangzi and the Red Hands Master also woke up one after the other and looked over.

The runes on the door flickered a few times and then gradually disappeared, eventually disappearing into thin air.

Shen Luo closed his eyes and recalled for a moment, then recalled the image of the prohibition talisman in his mind, and remembered its appearance.

When he opened his eyes, he saw that Lu Huaming and the others had already taken out their Yinling Talismans and started to activate them.

A black pattern surfaced on each of their bodies and were enveloped by black fog, eventually transforming into spectral ghosts.

Shen Luo also immediately activated his Yinling Talisman and transformed into a ghost figure, just like them.
