Other than Lin Zifeng and the other three, a million soldiers also appeared.

Though the place didn’t appear very large, with over two million soldiers present, it didn’t seem overly crowded.

Perhaps it was because of the special space here.

“Your Majesty, how about my Mystic Yang soldiers take the lead?”

Lin Zifeng said to Mei Changge with a respectful expression.

“Okay, this place is peculiar. The extreme Yang power of the Mystic Yang soldiers might not prove very effective here.”

Mei Changge said and nodded slightly.

The Nether Abyss appeared complex, and most importantly, the Yin qi here was incredibly vast as if it were the very source of Yin qi itself.

He could feel that the power of the Mystic Yang soldiers was suppressed by the Yin qi.

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

“Mystic Yang soldiers, step forward and explore the Nether Abyss!”

“Right away!”

Millions of Mystic Yang soldiers heeded Lin Zifeng’s commands, their voices echoing in all directions. They emerged and marched forward, taking the lead.

“Your Majesty, look at those statues!”

Huang Shang’s eyes were solemn as he pointed at the strange statue surrounding them.

“I have a feeling that these statues are alive and are staring at us.”

Huang Shang said warily.

“You’re right. Those statues are alive.”

Mei Changge smiled and nodded gently at Song Yubai beside him. Song Yubai instantly understood what Mei Changge meant.

“Red Lotus soldiers, use your Prison Chains on the statues!”

Song Yubai reached out and took out a red chain from his waist. Then, he threw one end of the chain out, aiming for the statue closest to him.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

At the same time, the other Red Lotus soldiers also took out their chains and threw them at the statues.

Buzz! Buzz!

On these chains, red flames flickered. Though lacking in temperature, their true power had yet to be revealed.

“Who said that only the power of extreme Yang is the Nether race’s nemesis?!”

Song Yubai smiled. Ever since the Red Lotus soldier pool advanced, the cultivation techniques they inherited had transformed. The flames they condensed were now strange flames capable of burning souls.

Buzz! Buzz!

All the statues seemed to sense danger and trembled violently.

At the same time, the statues’ scarlet eyes lit up.

“The Nether Abyss’ first stage, Thousand-Soul Seize!”

A voice sounded from all directions as if it was ringing in the ears of all the soldiers.

“Thousand-Soul Seize?”

“There’s probably more than a thousand puppets!”

Mei Changge smiled and did not pay much attention to it. At that moment, the statues seemed to have revived.

The scarlet eyes and peculiar physique sent shivers down the spines of ordinary people.

There were statues with broken wings, one-eyed statues, and even statues adorned with multiple arms. The sight was simply bizarre.

“Kill! Soul Seize!”

A voice resounded through the world. In an instant, countless statues surged toward Mei Changge. However, the Mystic Yang soldiers were in front, the Red Lotus soldiers were on both sides, and Chen Xin was guarding the back with the Swordsmen.

How could it be so easy to get close to Mei Changge?

“Mystic Yang Power!”

“Flames of Sin!”

“Enlightened Bladeslash!”

Three shouts sounded. One gold, one red, and one white light suddenly lit up.

They bombarded the statues.

In the blink of an eye, thousands of statues were destroyed into pieces.

A wisp of gray smoke rose from the statues, vaguely forming a humanoid figure that headed straight for the soldiers.

When the gray smoke landed on the soldiers, they were instantly petrified as if they had been cursed.

“These creatures don’t seem to be from the Nether race!”

Song Yubai’s pupils constricted. Some Red Lotus soldiers had also turned into stone statues.

In a short moment, more than a hundred Red Lotus soldiers were turned into statues.

It was the same for the Mystic Yang soldiers. Only the Swordsmen did not suffer any losses because they were far away from the gray smoke after the statues were destroyed.

“Your Majesty, that gray smoke is their true form. I think they’re still a kind of spirit body.”

Huang Shang’s eyes flickered. Then, he stretched out his hand and clenched it tightly.

Not far away, a statue had just shattered, its gray smoke seemingly trapped within. It attempted to struggle but remained ensnared.

Huang Shang rubbed his palm for a while and quickly realized the source of the gray smoke.

“General Lin, General Song, General Chen, these gray creatures are mainly spirit bodies. As long as we destroy their spirit bodies, we can get rid of them.”

“As for the statues, they are just their shells!”

Huang Shang’s voice reached the three of them. Then, he exerted strength in his palm and the gray smoke that had just been trapped shattered and disappeared.

“Good move. Is this the Daoist divine arts you mentioned?”

Mei Changge looked at Huang Shang and asked with a smile.

“Your Majesty, I must confess my embarrassment. I delved into the Daoist Canon and not only mastered the Nine Yin Manual but also devised a Daoist cultivation technique utilizing lesser divine arts.”

“It’s all thanks to the Song Dao Continent’s natural Dao runes. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have come to this point.”

Huang Shang nodded in acknowledgment. After creating the lesser divine arts of Daoism, he had already entrusted them to Mei Changge. Furthermore, he had stored his cultivation of the Nine Yin Manual within the Hidden Star Pavilion of the dynasty.
