A genius girl with her own space

Chapter 191 The Commander's Heroic Spirit

When Qiqi heard the sound, she knew that many weapons had spawned weapon spirits. "Brother Jingze, let's go and take a look."

They quickly arrived at the small hill. It looked small, but it was actually quite large. It was densely packed with swords, spears, clubs, halberds, discarded bows and arrows, and so on. Thick, dry bones were piled around the hill.

Many martial artists were scrambling for weapons, especially weapons that flew through the air, which became their most sought-after targets. Swords and spears clamored, dodging the clutches, seemingly unwilling to follow. Some flew high, others far away. Some even engaged in combat with those trying to seize them. More bones were crushed underfoot. The chilling wind grew stronger. The martial artists, unconcerned, continued their scramble.

Many ghosts were dimmed by their impact. They hid further away, powerless. There were many heroic souls here, and I don't know why they couldn't reincarnate.

Seeing this, Qiqi came to a big rock, lit a stick of incense, and inserted it into the incense burner. Soon, the smoke from the burning incense was absorbed by many ghosts, stabilizing their spirits.

"Qiqi, so many people have crushed the remains of the heroes. It would be strange if they didn't riot." Xiao Rui said.

"Qiqi, do you have any way to preserve the remains of these heroes? I saw them trampling on the corpses, and I felt sorry for these heroes who sacrificed their lives for the country." Zhou Jingze also said.

"Brother Jingze, I can't collect the corpses, but I can collect their souls. This is the soul gourd that Master Lingxuzi gave me when I came here. It can collect these souls. I'm afraid that this gourd cannot hold so many heroic souls without being hit by these people. After the gourd is filled, what should I do with them? Master didn't tell me." Qiqi said.

Zhou Jingze, Wang Yunlong, Wei Wuliang and others cannot see the heroic spirits, but Xiao Rui can.

"Qiqi, please help these people. If the martial artists continue to rush around and rob like this, these heroic souls will be shattered. They will never be able to reincarnate and will be buried here forever." Xiao Rui covered his face and started crying.

He thought of himself. If he hadn't met Qiqi, he would have become a wandering ghost, his soul eventually shattered. He also thought of the battle between the young lady and the demon beasts, which had killed and injured countless immortal warriors. Did they deserve to die? Many powerful beings in the heavens were inaction, willing to frame others for their own petty gains. They had become cowards when the demon beasts attacked the immortal world. After the victory, they all emerged to claim the credit.

The more Xiao Rui thought about it, the sadder he became. It wasn't worth it for the young lady, and it wasn't worth it for himself.

"Don't worry, I'll give it a try. I'll first collect the heroic souls, protect them, and find a way to send them to reincarnation."

Qiqi took out the soul gourd given by Lingxuzi and chanted the incantation. Soon, a soul was sucked in, and more souls were sucked in. Soon, the heroic souls in the valley were almost all collected.

Suddenly, Qiqi heard a voice. "Your kindness has touched me. Come with me."

Qiqi was pulled into a dark world by a beam of light. She felt blinded. Then, in a flash, her vision was ablaze with light. She was still in the valley, the same small hill covered in a riot of color, with swords, knives, and spears embedded among the blossoms. It was like a beautiful painting.

Where is this? Why am I here? Is this still the same little hill? Qiqi asked herself.

Qiqi then saw a figure, not a human but a ghost. Standing on the hill, its back to her, it seemed as if it were watching his army. Its back was so lonely, helpless, desolate, and heartbroken.

Qiqi looked at him silently, without saying a word. She knew it was the strength of the heroic spirit before her. This person must be the commander of these heroes. There were many almost transparent heroic spirits here.

Seeing this, Qiqi quickly took out a lot of incense and lit it to maintain these transparent souls. Soon, these transparent souls condensed a lot. Qiqi saw that the effect was very good and breathed a sigh of relief. He lit some more incense.

"Qiqi, can I call you that? I heard a young man calling you that. Thank you for accepting these heroic souls. They are so miserable. They lost their lives and were imprisoned, unable to reincarnate. We have been here for thousands of years. Finally, someone who is willing to pay for them has arrived. I am their commander. I am sorry for not protecting them well and letting everyone die here." said the ghost commander.

"Commander, you asked me to come here. Is there anything I can help you with?" Qiqi asked.

"Qiqi, you've already helped me. Those transparent heroic spirits just now, if I hadn't brought them here, they would have quickly shattered. Thank you for stabilizing their spirits. I don't feel so guilty anymore."

"Commander, how did you get trapped here? Why can't their souls be reincarnated? So many heroic souls are left here. If they don't reincarnate, their souls will be scattered. Who did this? It's so heartless."

"Qiqi, let me tell you a story."

Thousands of years ago, the Immortal Realm was not as peaceful as it is today. It was often attacked by demons and monsters who wanted to unify the Immortal Realm and later expand into the human world.

The former emperor of the immortal world, for the sake of peace in the human world, had no choice but to go to war with the demons and monsters, hoping to defeat them and make them retreat.

The late emperor sent me as commander-in-chief to lead all the warriors of the fairy world to fight against the demons and monsters. After half a month of hard fighting, many warriors of the fairy world fell in this battle, and the demons and monsters were forced to retreat to their lairs.

But there are traitors in our fairy world. They are colluding with the demons and monsters and intend to kill us all.

The demons and monsters challenged us to a battle at Yongqing Mountain. The late emperor, unaware of their conspiracy, accepted the challenge.

I led my generals and warriors to Yongqing Mountain. I saw that the terrain was unfavorable to us. I did not order my troops to enter. However, the traitor used the Emperor of Heaven to pressure me, forcing me to lead my troops into Yongqing Mountain.

In desperation, I left my deputy general outside Yongqing Mountain and asked him to lead 10,000 people to provide support.

We just entered and encountered demons and monsters. The Hukou we entered was sealed. I knew I'd been tricked. There was no way to retreat. I also heard people fighting outside the mountain, and then I heard my deputy general shouting and sending me a message. Someone has rebelled. Before he could reveal who it was, he was beheaded. Poor deputy general, even his soul was destroyed. The ten thousand troops I left outside were also killed by the rebels. Their souls have dissipated.

The commander shed tears of blood when he said this.
