The soldiers of Meng State now saw a man in black armor, black robe and black face. As soon as he appeared, he aroused the morale of the imperial army. Moreover, when this man made a move, he actually attacked his own general.
Several deputy generals of Meng State shouted in unison, "General, be careful. You are a bunch of imperial bandits. How can you be so shameless as to surround our general..."
With loud shouts, two soldiers of the Meng army slashed at the enemy from the opposite dynasty with their swords, forcing them to retreat. They then threw themselves towards Li Yan's battle group.
But just as the generals of Meng State rushed to rescue, the four generals of Meng State who had been besieging the silver-armored general scattered in loud laughter the moment Li Yan arrived.
Two of them also went after the two Meng Kingdom deputy generals who rushed over first. The rest of the people, including the personal guards behind Li Yan, had already scattered and each went to join the battle group. Only Marshal Li and the silver-armored general of Meng Kingdom were left to fight alone.
As they dispersed, some imperial soldiers shouted with laughter, "You southern barbarians, if my Marshal Li takes action, even if it's just one person, you hundreds of people will be nothing but a rolling gourd without a head."
"How could they know the power of our Marshal? How could they bother to attack anyone..."
Li Yan raised his spear and smashed it hard, and the generals looked for their opponents. It all happened at the same time. Both sides were very fast. Li Yan did not see the face of the opponent's general clearly. It seemed that this person was very young.
Under siege from several people, he not only did not lose the upper hand, but became more and more courageous, his body movements moved very quickly, and the four generals of the dynasty were simply unable to form an effective offensive.
The silver-armored general of Meng State had already seen Li Yan when he and Cui Feng were standing dozens of feet away watching the battle, but Li Yan always dressed simply.
This set of armor was made when he was a captain, and it has not been replaced until now. At most, it has just been repaired, so it is difficult to tell from his appearance that he is a general in the army.
It's just that Li Yan has been in power for many years and his aura is too strong, so even if he just stands there casually, people will look at him sideways. In addition, the fact that he can have Cui Feng accompany him on both sides with a cautious look also makes the silver-armored general of Meng State guess that he has heard of Li Yan's name a long time ago and is also familiar with his appearance.
This is mainly because, apart from his reputation as the bravest of the three armies, Li Yan is even more famous for his status in the martial arts world. He is revered by martial artists all over the world as the current "Martial Saint". With only more than 30 years of training, his martial arts power is already unrivaled in the world.
Although Li Yan mostly made a name for himself by killing people on the battlefield, people in the martial arts world knew that Li Yan had only fought in public three times. But with just these three times, he defeated the three most powerful masters in the martial arts world one after another, making him unrivaled.
General Silver Armor is also a martial arts genius in his own country. Although he is only in his twenties, with his genius qualifications, he has already entered the ranks of the world's top warriors - the Transformation Realm level - at an early stage.
He had heard of Li Yan's name a long time ago, but unfortunately, after those three attacks, he never participated in any martial arts hero conference again. He had been searching for Li Yan for several years but had not been able to find him. Of course, he did not dare to break into the army without permission to challenge Li Yan to a duel.
This time Meng State brought in a surprise force from the west, so he volunteered to lead the troops. Firstly, the western route was difficult to travel, almost impossible for birds to fly, and many places had never had any human footprints since ancient times, so he needed to use his outstanding martial arts to open the way in advance, and then hang ropes and build wooden planks.
The second reason, of course, was that he wanted to see if he could meet Li Yan this time. As soon as he saw him today, he had already determined the other party's identity. He had originally planned to challenge him loudly, but the other party had already come to him on his own.
But at the beginning he was still extremely disappointed, because the other party didn't even say hello and joined forces with the other four to attack him.
He thought he had recognized the wrong person. How could a martial saint do such a despicable thing? But then he heard the enemy soldiers shouting "Marshal".
So he raised his eyebrows and was about to make a sarcastic remark, but unexpectedly the enemy seemed to have very tacit cooperation. At the same time Li Yan made his move, the rest of the people had dispersed.
The silver-armored general only felt a dull gust of wind above his head, and he knew that this man had extraordinary strength, but he did not take it to heart. He immediately pressed the tip of his tongue against the roof of his mouth, and all the internal strength in his dantian rushed to his arms. He held the spear in his hand horizontally. He was determined to test how powerful this "Martial Saint" was.
Li Yan couldn't help but smile in his heart when he saw that the opponent didn't dodge or evade when he hit him with his spear.
At this moment, he had seen the appearance of the silver-armored general, and could not help but be stunned, but only for a moment. The spear in his hand did not slow down at all. With his experience in fighting the enemy, he had already managed to remain calm even when a heavy mountain collapsed in front of him.
Because Li Yan saw a fair face under the silver helmet, but there was a drooping silver spike from the middle of the forehead, blocking the bridge of the nose and part of the cheek, leaving only a pair of clear black and white eyes and jade-like cheeks.
I couldn't help but secretly praise in my heart, "Whose boy is this? He is so handsome."
There was a muffled "bang" sound. Although the sound did not echo all around, it seemed to strike the hearts of everyone within a dozen feet radius, causing their hearts to shrink suddenly.
Many soldiers had already taken a peek in their busy schedule, but the expressions of the imperial soldiers were excited, while the Meng soldiers were surprised and worried.
Li Yan's evil reputation has long been filled in the hearts of every soldier of the Meng State. This man is like an insurmountable ancient mountain, forever blocking their attack.
If the dynasty had not been too powerful, resulting in a situation where it was surrounded by enemies on all sides, it is estimated that under the leadership of this man, the capital of the Meng Kingdom would have been attacked long ago.
But the soldiers of the Meng State were also very confident in their general. They had heard before that their general's martial arts were the best in the world, especially this time when he was leading the team. They had gone to places with dangerous cliffs where even monkeys could not set foot. Their general would always climb up flexibly and then lower ropes for them to fly over.
His outstanding martial arts skills had already convinced them.
However, in the end, more than 500 people died on the way, but these Meng soldiers had no intention of blaming their general at all.
If it weren't for this person, their thousand-man team would not have been able to walk even half the distance, and would have been left in the mountains forever. The silver-armored general felt a huge force on his arms that was almost incomparable to him. He felt his arms go numb and his chest was indescribably uncomfortable.
His body, which had been straight as a spear, also sank downward. He took the opportunity to bend his waist and retreat several steps.
As he retreated, several deep footprints were left on the hard ground under his feet.
The silver-armored general took a few steps back before he managed to steady himself. When he looked across again, he was filled with horror.
He admitted that he had underestimated his enemy and only used 70% of his internal strength. However, seeing that the other party looked relaxed, holding the spear in one hand with the tip of the spear pointed slantly upwards, how could he remain calm
Li Yan clearly looked like he was doing nothing, and the attack he just made seemed like a casual swing with one hand, but he was unable to take it.
"Is he born with supernatural powers, or has his internal strength reached the pinnacle of the world?"
A hint of doubt flashed across General Silver Armor's pretty face. After all, he was also a master in the realm of transformation, and he didn't believe that there could be such a huge difference between people in the same realm of transformation in this world.
Therefore, he still believed that Li Yan was born with supernatural powers, and his internal strength was just a little deeper than his own because he had entered the realm of transformation many years earlier.
While secretly adjusting his inner breath, General Silver Armor finally got rid of the anger in his chest. Since the opponent had such amazing power, he would just use the method of fighting in a mobile way.
So he moved forward again, and the figure changed from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred. A long spear was like a dragon emerging from water, and every move hit Li Yan's vital points. For a moment, the soldiers within a radius of dozens of feet avoided away, creating a larger fighting space for the two.
Li Yan just stood there, either holding the spear with one hand and slashing it diagonally, or holding it with both hands to block. No matter how heavy the spear shadows were around him, he was always the first to arrive. When the spears could take his life in the next moment, he would stand in front of them, as if both parties had known each other for many years.
Just like this, in the midst of the storm, Li Yan did not make many movements except occasionally moving his feet. He only fought back occasionally.
However, if he fought back, the heavy spear shadows around him would disappear in an instant. The silver-armored general did not dare to confront him head-on, so he had to leap away. Then, his face began to become more and more embarrassed, and he moved forward again.
He had a vague feeling that Li Yan was actually trying to tease him, so his sculptured face grew even more stern and his attack grew even more fierce. For a moment his true strength was surging, and the sharp gun energy cut deep grooves on the ground. The soldiers on both sides had already withdrawn further from the battlefield.
The attack of the silver-armored general was not ineffective. Li Yandang was in danger. It only took a misstep. Even though he was protected by armor, a master of the transformation realm could still attack him in anger. The true energy infused into the tip of the spear would instantly shatter the armor into pieces and make it transparent.
Not until the Silver-Armored General had exerted all his strength to the extreme did Li Yan begin to move continuously, and the spear in his hand turned into a ball of black light.
"This man is only in his early twenties. When I was his age, I had not yet touched the threshold of the realm of enlightenment. It looks like he has already reached the threshold for several years. What a pity!"
Li Yan had already improved his skills to 70% by this time, but he already felt sorry for this man. With such a great man, it would be difficult for him to defeat him in just ten years.
Although the path of martial arts becomes increasingly difficult as one advances, often just to increase one's internal strength, one may not see any progress even after years of hard training.
But this person can now allow Li Yan to use 70% of his strength. There is no one else in this world except those few people, but those people have been immersed in the realm of transformation for many years.
Although Li Yan loves talents, he knows when to stop. This is a battlefield between enemies and us, and it can be considered a national feud. How can he allow such a potential hidden danger like the other party to stay in the world
The fight just now was just because he wanted to see how advanced this person's martial arts were. After all, there were too few masters in the realm of transformation in the world, and there was no one who could compete with him. It was a rare opportunity to meet a new master in the realm of transformation today, so naturally he wanted to see him clearly.
After nearly a hundred moves, Li Yan knew the opponent's strength, and immediately shouted, "General, you have great skills, but do you really think that I am just stronger? Then let people see my skills."
As he said that, Li Yan suddenly raised the spear in his hand. With a loud "clang" sound, the spear made of tempered steel was inserted into the ground by him.
Although the surface of the ground is only a relatively hard gravel surface, a few inches down it is extremely hard granite.
With this thrust, Li Yan's spear handle actually sunk more than a foot into the ground, making an extremely terrifying sound.
What's even more shocking is yet to come. Li Yan quickly stretched his hands to both sides, then hunched his chest and arched his back, and then brought his arms to his arms.
An unprecedented powerful force was generated between heaven and earth, as if it was brought into his arms.
Then Li Yan shouted again, exhaled and spoke, and with a shake of his arms, the invisible energy in his arms condensed into a ball and was quickly pushed forward by him.
At this moment, the Silver-Armored General just came in front of him and stabbed Li Yan's throat with a gun.
