Chapter 70, Hell difficulty, is about as good as it gets.
Xu Fei's angry expression turned obsequious again: "Thanks to you cultivators, otherwise we would have been slaughtered by the Japanese soldiers."
"If our General Liu finds out, he will certainly send a generous gift..."
Zhou An waved his hand, interrupting the other party: "We were originally invited by General Liu to secretly protect this batch of gold."
Upon hearing this, Xu Fei was overjoyed: "So it was General Liu who invited these gentlemen to come and protect us. That's wonderful!"
He was worried that Zhou An and his two companions would also try to steal the gold, but he never expected that they would turn out to be his bodyguards.
"General Liu knew long ago that Japanese bandits were going to hijack the train. Although they had driven them away, they were just the vanguard. The island nation's Onmyoji would take action."
“Now that the railway tracks have been bombed, we can’t leave. So, we need to transfer all the passengers on the train to the woods over there,” Zhou An said.
"Move everyone away? Even if a Japanese Onmyoji comes, there's no need, right?" Xu Fei was a little confused.
In his view, these were just ordinary people, peasants, and if they died, they died; why waste time moving them away?
Zhou An said coldly, "Once the battle starts, these people who stay here will die."
“Those Onmyoji have special methods to control corpses or souls. If that happens, the pressure on us will increase significantly.”
"So, gather everyone immediately and move them away. I will bury the gold right here."
"After we defeat the Japanese Onmyoji, you can have General Liu lead his men to move the gold away."
Upon hearing this, Xu Fei's face turned pale, and he quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, the adults are right, I'll go right away."
"Quickly, everyone get moving and call everyone down to assemble."
Upon hearing this, the soldiers rushed to the carriage one by one.
In just fifteen minutes, more than three hundred people were standing below.
Finally, led by Xu Fei, they headed towards the woods on the side.
No one dared to question anything, because they were met with bullets.
Meanwhile, the malevolent and benevolent entities began digging pits on the spot.
Of course, it wasn't about digging a hole by hand, but rather blasting a huge, deep crater out with a fireball.
In a short time, a large enough and deep enough crater filled with lava appeared here.
Zhou An and his two companions immediately threw box after box of gold into the pit below.
Then, control the power of the fireball and attack the edge.
The crater was completely destroyed by the explosion, burying all the gold underground.
In this situation, no one would know that the gold was underneath.
Even if you know it, it would take at least a day to uncover it.
Now, everything is ready, except for the final push.
"We don't know when they'll arrive. Should we take the initiative?" the malevolent entity asked again.
"No need, they'll be here. Let's go to the dining car and get something to eat; I'm a little hungry." Zhou An waved his hand and went straight back to dining car number 2.
The place is filled with the rich aroma of food. Although it dates back to the Republic of China era, the various dishes are already quite sophisticated.
In the blink of an eye, a quarter of an hour had passed.
Suddenly, the wind outside the window picked up, and the weeds were pressed flat against the ground by an invisible force, and even the chirping of insects disappeared instantly.
Zhou An looked up into the distance.
"Here it is." Zhou An quickly finished the food on the table and then climbed onto the roof of the car.
The malevolent and benevolent entities naturally got onto the roof of the car immediately.
Several figures dressed in black kimonos walked slowly through the weeds.
Their footsteps were so light that they made no sound when they landed.
The Onmyoji walking at the front had an extremely strange talisman on his forehead, obscuring his face.
His hands were forming strange hand seals, and his entire body was surrounded by a faint blackish-purple aura.
It seems to walk very slowly, but with each step, its body moves a certain distance.
In no time at all, the five Onmyoji appeared in front of the train.
The Onmyoji looked at Zhou An and the other two with a cold expression, without saying a word.
The leader simply raised his hand and uttered a few obscure Japanese incantations.
The next instant, a black aura shot out from the opponent's fingertip and rushed straight towards Zhou An's face.
Seeing this, Zhou An made no move, while the evil entity stepped forward and threw a punch at the black aura.
Strangely, the black aura directly entered the body of the evil entity.
Then, the right arm of the malevolent entity began to turn black and frost over at a visible speed.
"Foolish, daring to take my attack with your fists," the leader said with a sneer.
However, the next moment, a flash of white light appeared on the right arm of the evil entity, and the abnormal state was directly removed.
"It's ghostly energy, very weak, probably equivalent to the second tier," the malevolent entity said after sensing it.
"Only Tier 2? Isn't this Hell difficulty too easy?" The benevolent being tilted its head, somewhat puzzled.
"You've forgotten that our power is unrestricted, so it's naturally a simple copy."
"If we were all restricted in our power, would you absolutely have a chance of winning against five second-tier Onmyoji?"
"Even if we add those twenty weirdos and they use firearms," Zhou An said calmly.
"That's right, Lao Ben, then I'll take action and wipe them out." The evil entity was eager to try.
"No rush. I'm very curious about Onmyoji. Let's see what they do."
"After we capture them alive, we need to ask them if there are any more people behind them. Otherwise, if we kill them, even stronger ones will come, and we'll be at a disadvantage."
"Once we get the information, we'll just go and kill them all," Zhou An said with a faint smile.
Both the malevolent and benevolent entities nodded in agreement upon hearing this.
"The Chinese practitioners are indeed quite skilled, but when they face us Onmyoji, they will only be slaughtered."
The leader made another move.
Upon seeing this, the four Onmyoji behind him immediately took action.
Their methods were all different. Some people formed hand seals and chanted incantations, directly summoning several pale-faced paper figures.
The paper figure, covered in eerie black runes, lunged directly at Zhou An and his companions.
An Onmyoji bit his fingertip and smeared the blood onto a paper sword. With a light tap of his foot, he followed the paper figure and launched an attack.
The remaining two Onmyoji faced each other, their bloodied hands grabbing each other's palms, and then slammed together violently.
The two strangely merged together and then transformed into a ghost ten feet tall.
Zhou An looked at the chaotic scene of demons dancing below without changing his expression, his gaze cold.
The malevolent and benevolent entities raised their right hands, and a ball of energy the size of a ping-pong ball gathered in their palms.
They need to control the power; they can't kill them.
The next moment, several muffled rumbling sounds rang out.
Those paper figures offered no resistance whatsoever; they were instantly pierced by the fireballs and then burned to ashes.
Moreover, it burns extremely quickly, disappearing into thin air in the blink of an eye.
Chapter 71: Authority to Control the Survival Train?
Upon seeing this, the lead Onmyoji's pupils contracted slightly.
He hadn't expected Zhou An and his group to be so ruthless.
Their prized methods were easily thwarted.
"They are powerful. Let us join forces and go all out to summon our shikigami." The leading onmyoji suddenly stepped back a distance and took out a black and purple talisman.
Seeing this, the other four people did not hesitate and immediately stepped back a distance.
"Some clowns, break their legs first." As soon as the evil entity finished speaking, several weakened fireballs shot out.
Upon seeing this, the Onmyoji on the opposite side unleashed a black aura that enveloped them, attempting to block the Flame Burst.
However, this layer of protection was completely ineffective under the fireball.
The fireball easily shattered the shield and then landed precisely on the thighs of the Onmyoji.
"Ah~~~!"
The Onmyoji immediately cried out in pain, then collapsed to the ground.
Their legs melted away.
"Baka yarou, I... offer... my soul, a hundred demons parade!"
The leading Onmyoji was in so much pain that he could only speak intermittently.
But when those last four words were uttered, the once clear sky suddenly changed.
The sky instantly darkened, and strange noises filled the howling wind.
"No...no..." An Onmyoji seemed to sense something and roared in terror.
"Senior Brother Tianyi, why...why did you sacrifice our souls..." Another Onmyoji looked at the leader with a face full of despair.
Tianyi didn't speak, but looked at Zhou An and the other two with resentful eyes.
Then, an invisible force appeared in the void.
This power directly extracted a phantom shadow from the bodies of these five Onmyoji.
These are not shadows, but their souls.
