Chapter 648: The Strength of Ten Million People (2)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Although Jiang Li had tens of millions of ghost soldiers in his hands, ghosts did not have a physical body and were not good at strength to begin with.
This could be seen from the fact that the ghost soldiers were all wearing paper clothes and using paper weapons.
They were all outstanding ghost soldiers that were comparable to Foundation Establishment cultivators after Jiang Li poured a large amount of spiritual qi into them.
However, in terms of strength, they were really a little weak.
Therefore, Jiang Li did everything he could to attract a large number of cultivators to gather in Fengdu Ghost City.
!!
This was not an ever-changing battle.
He could completely use the method of increasing the number of people to gather sand into a tower and gather all the resources. This way, he could gather enough power to change the world.
Not long after, the other high-grade Divine Judgment Hall members arrived.
In the beginning, they were naturally unwilling to listen to the Ghost City Lord’s words.
They sent hundreds of people down to test the Dragon Imprisoning Lock.
Through some artifacts, he reflected the scene on the other side of the chain.
High-grade Divine Judgment factions were indeed high-grade. All kinds of Dao techniques and secret techniques emerged endlessly.
These experts gathered together and thought of various methods to bypass the resentment clouds.
There were even a few times when they almost succeeded.
However, Jiang Li had been plotting this for so long, so how could he let them ruin it?
He used the Gate of Hell to run to the Netherworld fragment and use various obscure methods to destroy it.
Those methods, that did not have a high success rate to begin with, were all useless under Jiang Li’s deliberate disturbance.
After a few days, the Divine Judgment Hall finally discovered that they really could not cross that chasm.
After much discussion, they decided to follow Jiang Li’s suggestion and use the simplest and most crude method to pull the two Netherworld fragments together.
In order to obtain the power of those small forces and a larger number of rogue cultivators, they even opened up the chain and let many rogue cultivator experts follow the Dragon Imprisoning Lock to give it a try.
After they realized that this path was blocked, he also gave them a promise that the Divine Judgment Hall was willing to give a portion of the scales to rogue cultivators and small forces to mobilize a considerable number of people.
The few high-grade Divine Judgment leaders of the Divine Judgment Hall also found Jiang Li again. This time, they wanted to borrow the Gate of Hell.
If they wanted to act according to Jiang Li’s method, they needed an extremely large number of people.
As such, the monthly Gate of Hell and the Ghost King Desolate Ground were clearly not enough.
They needed a more stable and efficient way.
They could transport more cultivators from the Divine Judgment Hall and rogue cultivators who wanted to participate.
If he wanted to open the Gate of Hell 24 hours a day, he only needed dark clouds to cover the sun and create a land of extreme Yin to provide enough energy.
After receiving enough remuneration, Jiang Li readily agreed.
With a safe passage, the most number of Foundation Establishment and even Qi Refinement realm cultivators in the cultivation world could safely and quickly come here.
Every day after that, the number of cultivators gathered in Fengdu City increased exponentially.
200,000, 300,000, 500,000. In just a few days, there were already more than a million people. Not only did the number of people not slow down, it even increased.
For a time, inside and outside Fengdu City, there were human qi and Yang qi everywhere.
It caused the ghost residents in the city to open their mouths and suck everywhere.
The human qi and Yang qi mixed with the Yin qi of the Netherworld were absorbed without any burden even by ordinary ghosts.
Now, on the top of Fengdu City, Jiang Li looked at the bonfire wooden houses that connected to the outside of the city and the traffic that had increased by ten times. He sighed with emotion.
This was the first time he had seen so many cultivators gathered together.
However, to the size of the Divine Judgment Hall, this was nothing.
If they were willing to stop most of the sect activities, the Great Mountain Alliance alone could take out 30,000 to 40,000 people.
Not counting the medium and high-grade Divine Judgment forces, there were nearly a thousand sects of the same size as the Great Mountain Alliance on the surface.
There were also many sects that were accumulating merit points.
When the number of people reached its peak, they would probably surpass his ghost soldier army. It was even possible that there would be more cultivators than ghosts in Fengdu Ghost City.
However, with so many people, this section stretched out from Fengdu City and fell to the edge of the cliff. The chain that was less than five kilometers long was clearly not enough for them to pull.
They also had to tie more ropes to the Dragon Imprisoning Lock and use mechanisms like winches to better unleash the strength of so many people.
Just for this, the price of high-grade threads in the various cities of the cultivation world of the Eastern Region rose exponentially.
The Four Hands who had just moved here also found their job.
Day and night, they forged winches continuously.
During this period, many experts also tried to pull the chains.
However, they could not move the chains, making Fengdu City Lord’s true strength even more mysterious.
As such, the preparations lasted for more than half a month.
On this day, a black mass of people had already gathered outside Fengdu City.
A huge winch made of 150,000 refined iron was arranged according to a specific array formation.
The thick metal material gave people an indestructible feeling just by looking at it.
Every winch could carry huge power.
They were presided over by one to several Nascent Soul cultivators, and they led 300 to 500 low-level cultivators.
Then, ropes woven from special threads stretched out and connected to the metal buckle of the chain.
As for experts at the Soul Formation realm or even the Earth Immortal realm, ordinary winches could no longer withstand their strength.
They could either use their own artifacts or push stronger mechanisms to unleash their strength.
Before it even began, everyone already felt heavy pressure.
This was why everyone from the Foundation Establishment realm to the Earth Immortal realm liked to establish their own forces.
In the cultivation world, there were not only fights and killings.
In other aspects, human strength was unique to him.
“Ignite the fire! The first set of winches can begin to exert strength!”
Due to the fact that the range of personnel and winch was too wide, it was not convenient to transmit voices.
It had already reached the level of using the beacon tower.
As the first group of beacon towers lit up one after another, a total of 15,000 winches slowly spun under the push of manpower.
Strengthening ropes that had been woven repeatedly gradually tightened and straightened. An increasingly huge force acted on the chain through these ropes.
The cultivators pushing the wheel gradually felt resistance. Then, slowly, the 15,000 winches seemed to be stuck. No matter how they pushed, they could not move.
There might be a problem with one or two winches, but how could all 17,000 winches have a problem?
These winches were all made by skilled craftsmen. The bearings were covered in at least ten layers of oil.
Although it looked big and cumbersome, in fact, even a mortal could push it.
The combined strength of more than 6 million people was actually stuck here, unable to pull the chain at all!
However, didn’t this mean that the combined strength of these 60 million people was inferior to the Fengdu City Lord?
How shocking was that!
Everyone knew that the higher the cultivation realm in the cultivation world, the greater the gap between each realm.
However, it was unbelievable that six million people could not compare to one.
Of course, if six million people could pull that piece of land over, Jiang Li would not have to go through so much trouble.
“Second group! Ignite the fire.”
An expert standing in front continued to give the order. After the beacon fire lit up, another group of people began to attack.
The terrifying power directly doubled. Now, it was the power of 12 million cultivators!
The chain shook slightly, but it still could not be turned.
Then, the third group, the fourth group!
An immeasurable amount of pure strength gathered together, causing the seemingly ordinary thick chain to gradually become blurry.
At this moment, the chain finally began to move slowly, its speed increasing bit by bit.
“It’s moving! It’s moving! It’s finally moving!”
“Work harder! Don’t be discouraged now!”
