Fairyland.
The Fairy and Monster War has begun.
It is said that it is a battle between immortals and demons, but the ones in front of the coalition forces are instead the immortals of the Tongtian sect.
They had already fought with the Immortal Emperor's army, and because they were at an absolute disadvantage in numbers, they formed a defensive formation. The immortals are divided into multiple groups, and their distribution is like the Big Dipper in the middle of the night.
Each group propped up a small magic circle, and the tortoise shell-like celestial power mask guarded the celestial beings closely. Although the radiance of the magic circle was extremely bright, compared with the magic circle of the Immortal Emperor's army and the waves of immortal magic attacks emitted by the magic circle, it was just the level of the seaside reefs that were continuously pounded by the waves.
Huge waves crashed against the rocks, rolling up thousands of piles of snow, and the light tide of immortal energy continuously submerged the magic circle, which could easily be swallowed no matter how you looked at it. However, every time a wave and tide recedes for a short time, the reef will show its original appearance again and again, proclaiming its tenacious existence.
This is not how powerful each small magic circle is, but that there are beams of light connecting the small magic circles to form a complete large defensive circle. It is precisely because the Dafa Formation was not substantially damaged that the ministries were able to tenaciously support it.
The one who presides over this overall defense circle is the Master Tongtian, that is, Daoist Nichen himself.
Because of his existence, this magic circle will not be breached in the short term.
But their number disadvantage is too great after all, which is about 30% of the Immortal Emperor's army, so no matter how strong the magic circle is, if they continue to be attacked by the Immortal Emperor's army, there will always be a moment of shattering.
Just looking at the postures of the immortals in the small magic circles where the auras of the immortals perfectly match the magic circles, one can know that if the magic circles are breached, these immortals will be seriously injured instantly and lose most of their combat power.
Behind the giant defensive circle of Master Tongtian, there is an army of monster races.
Not to mention the faction of the leader of Tongtian cannot compare their numbers, even if the army of the immortal emperor is in front of them, it is the difference between the window and the gate of the mansion.
However, every monk in the Immortal Emperor's army is from the Immortal Realm, and the main force in the Monster Race's army is the qi-training monks and real-life monks. The overall strength is completely incomparable with the Immortal Emperor's army.
But looking at the calm expressions of the Monkey King, the Bull Demon King, the Peng Demon King and others, one could tell that they didn't think they were bound to lose, on the contrary, many monsters had a burning look in their eyes, as intense as fire, almost pious.
This is because they are also forming an formation, and they are using the Zhou Tian Xingdou formation.
The flags and banners floated in the shining formation, each according to its position, fused with the aura of demon warriors, pulling the demon power into it from everywhere, and finally filled the entire formation through the mysterious method.
While Master Tongtian and others were relying on the defensive formation to resist the onslaught of the Immortal Emperor's army, the strength of the Zhoutian Xingdou formation continued to strengthen. The monster power flowing from the banner into the central dome of the formation is condensing a huge black magic ball.
The dharma ball is as black as ink, unfathomably deep, constantly flashing with lightning-like serpentine light, as if there are millions of spirit snakes spewing letters, making people shudder to watch. This magic ball has expanded to a large enough point, but the sense of darkness and depth is still deepening.
Li Ye looked at the magic ball, and his perception was very obvious. Even though the magic ball was so dark that he couldn't see anything, his intuition told him that it was still getting darker and its strength was increasing.
Like, it's an embryo that breeds a terrifying existence.
This is the big formation of the Yaozu, and Li Ye can't exert much power. Although Xianli and Yaoli belong to the same category of aura, they are still very different. Now we can only watch the Yaozu exert their strength.
This kind of feeling of staying out of things is hard to say, and Li Ye didn't feel uncomfortable. He hadn't planned to come to Xianyu in the first place, and appearing here was purely calculated.
"Brother Ye, how do I feel that someone is about to crawl out of that magic ball?" The princess sitting cross-legged beside Li Ye, with two braids on her head, holding a large bag of pastries in her arms, mouth full Sugar residue, wipe your mouth with a handkerchief from time to time.
This is her private collection, and it is also her hobby. If all the food in the storage bag is poured out, it may fill several large tanks. Li Ye didn't like to eat these snacks, so she just touched Li Ye's shoulder and ate them crispy, not without the intention of seducing Li Ye, but it was useless.
"There is indeed something crawling out, but it's probably not a person, but a monster." Li Ye answered Wu You's question.
Because the problems of Hexi and Northwest in the mortal world have been solved, he is quite relaxed now. Once his own cultivation has reached the Golden Immortal Realm, he has the strength to fight against the Daluo Golden Immortal, and he no longer fears general risks. Even if the monster army is defeated, he and the princess can escape from the battlefield calmly without any pressure at all.
Because of this, the princess was in a good mood, so she started eating pastries. It has been so long since she has been in Xianyu, and this is the first time she has feasted on it. When it is not so easy, the princess will choose to learn embroidery, because she is learning from the fox demon proprietress, so she needs to devote extra energy to distract her attention.
But eating snacks is different. It needs to be completely relaxed, so that you can taste the delicious pastries, which can be regarded as living up to the food. No matter what others think, she thinks so anyway.
"It feels like they're going to fight for a long time. Brother Ye, why don't you take out the jar of wine and drink it. I eat delicious food by myself, and you have nothing to do. It feels so awkward." The princess said that eating alone made her feel very uncomfortable. Feeling guilty, feeling uncomfortable no matter what.
Li Ye was kind, took out a jug of wine from the storage bag, and drank it one after another.
In fact, dry drinking is not interesting, there are no appetizers in front of him, Li Ye misses the deep-fried peanuts on earth, unfortunately, Tang Dynasty did not have them. After taking a few sips, Li Ye felt that something was missing in his mouth.
In fact, drinking is a wonderful thing. If there are no appetizers, you need something else to match, such as telling stories, memories, longing, sorrow, loneliness, etc.
Li Ye doesn't have any of these now, so he can only reach into the princess's hand, take away the cakes she didn't eat from her small pink palm, and stuff them into his mouth one after another.
In this way, the wine will have more taste, mainly because you can drink more. Sometimes Li Ye also feels that wine is really not a lonely thing, one cannot drink a lot of wine without company, even with loneliness as a company.
The princess's big eyes disappeared because they were bent into beautiful crescent buds, but she didn't let Li Ye see her expression, she smiled triumphantly and silently. He took out a large handful of pastries from the paper bag with one hand, spread his palms, and ate them with the other hand.
Of course, this is not for the convenience of himself, but to allow Li Ye to better share his beloved from her palm.
Although the Princess didn't drink, her baby-fat cheeks began to blush. I don't know if it was an illusion. Anyway, she felt that the pastries were more delicious and she could eat more.
I don't know what Brother Hou was thinking. When reshaping the body of the princess, he completely copied her previous appearance, and even the details such as baby fat were not overlooked. When Li Ye slandered Brother Hou, he aroused the anger of the other party. This guy said that he was drawing a ladle from a gourd.
When Li Ye finished drinking a few jars of wine, and the princess's belly was so round that he almost patted his stomach and howled, the battle situation in front of him finally changed.
Finally, one arm stretched out from the huge black ball, and soon the second one would come out. Just as the demon head was about to climb out, the defense circle of the Master Tongtian, whose light was gradually dimming, finally shattered after a bang.
One by one the small magic circles exploded one after another, and mushroom clouds burst out of spiritual energy soaring into the sky. The immortals inside all vomited blood and flew upside down. Their bodies were scattered like dandelions.
Taoist Nichen himself also spat out a mouthful of blood with his face turning blue.
The Immortal Emperor, who was standing with his hands behind his back behind the great formation of the Immortals, looked at the Immortals who continued to fly upside down, and a gleam of coldness flashed in his eyes.
Standing next to him, Li Changgeng sneered disdainfully and said, "Taoist Muchen? He is clearly a Daoist rebellious minister! This fellow is self-aware and has given himself such a Taoist name. It's a pity that rebellious ministers are doomed to perish."
This sentence can be called the heartfelt voice of the Immortal Emperor, after Li Changgeng uttered it, the other party repeatedly nodded in agreement.
Taoist Nichen flew back to Zhou Tian Xingdou Great Formation, looked at the Immortal Emperor from a distance, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and snorted coldly: "See how long you can pretend!"
After they retreated, the Immortal Emperor's army overwhelmingly overwhelmed them. Just as they were about to launch a new round of immortal magic bombing, all the monster monks opened their eyes in unison, and suddenly looked at the immortal with lightning-like eyes. Thunder appeared.
The existence that stood out in the huge black ball seemed to feel a strong call, and there was an earth-shattering roar. Suddenly, with both arms, it jumped out of the darkness.
Seeing the existence with a complete figure, Li Ye was stunned immediately, and almost laughed out loud.
What kind of monster is this? It's clearly a long-armed toy. The pair of arms are extremely huge, as if they can support the sky with one hand and the ground with the other, and the head is big enough, as if it can be turned into the sun, but the body is too small, only the length of the arms.
One can imagine what kind of monster this is.
"It is said that Zhou Tian Xingdou's great formation is extremely mysterious, and it can summon the power equivalent to a blow of a saint. It's a pity that these evildoers are not strong enough. I want to see if such a deformed monster can really do anything to me !"
While speaking, the Immortal Emperor suddenly waved his hand, and the offensive formation formed by his army was suddenly shaken, releasing a ball of aura light that was bigger than the monster's body.
Even if it was only a monster that was summoned, the Bull Demon King, Peng Demon King, Macaque King and others all had sacred expressions on their faces at this moment, and they suddenly opened their mouths and roared loudly, "Pangu opened the sky!"
The deformed monster was shocked when he heard the sound, his black eyes were instantly scarlet like flames, and he closed his palms towards the sky, as if grabbing a giant axe. When the ball of light faced him, he let out a long howl like a baby and supper , swept out violently!
The distance between Li Ye and the princess is far enough from the formation, but at this time, he was still affected by the surging wave of spiritual energy. Fortunately, the power of spiritual energy is not very strong, but the scene in front of him still made the wine jar in Li Ye's hand slap fell to the ground.
There are no demons or immortals, only the exploding aura radiates like a sea of clouds, tumbling endlessly, covering everything.
When the wave of spiritual energy finally dissipated, Li Ye's eyeballs widened even further.
Nearly half of the Immortal Emperor's army was lost, and the field was full of immortals lying on the ground, not knowing whether they were dead or alive. The light of the great array is gone, not only the immortal emperor's army is gone, but also the monster monks' side is gone.
But these are not important, the important thing is that the immortal who can still move, under the order of the immortal emperor, rushed towards the monster monk like a tide!
And the monster monks were not to be outdone, even though there was a huge difference in cultivation, they still raised their magical weapons and fiercely collided with the army of the immortal emperor.
Li Ye stood up abruptly, then sat down quickly, and said to the princess next to him who was doing the same action: "The scuffle has begun. It looks like I don't know how long it will last."
The princess nodded seriously, "Maybe it will be a long fight... At least, one day?"
Li Ye nodded solemnly: "With so many monks, it should take no less than this time to decide the winner."
The princess said: "One day in the sky, one year in the mortal world, brother Ye, you can do many things again."
Li Ye patted her little head, looked towards the battlefield, said half with emotion and half with anticipation: "I hope the Yaozu can last a little longer."
...
Li Ye did not expect to come to Shazhou again so soon.
When I left Yangguan and returned to Pipa Mountain before, I had the intention of supporting King Qi, but I didn't expect that the battle would end as soon as I arrived, and I won a decisive victory.
The next thing is very simple, Wukong rectifies the power of Shimen, swears allegiance to Datang, for this reason, he does not hesitate to revise the classics of Shimen, saying that Datang is the birthplace of the new Buddha.
The old Buddha perishes, the new Buddha is born, the latter replaces the former to save the world, save all living beings, and lead the Shimen to the light... Li Ye does not believe a word of this kind of words, but the monks of the Shimen believe it , so if he told Wukong that he was the reincarnation of the new Buddha, he didn't bother to be true.
Li Ye went to Shazhou again, in fact, for one purpose, to officially declare the Tang court's jurisdiction over the entire Hexi and Northwest, and to discuss border defense and other matters with the Guiyi Army.
A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old version of the book chasing artifact, the source-changing app used by old bookworms, huanyuanapp.org
Tumor Suo Xun and Zhang Huaiding in the Guiyi Army, together with their henchmen, were escorted to accept Li Ye's trial at the mansion of the Guiyi Army Jiedushi in Shazhou. The process was very simple, and the momentum was huge. The order to beheaded was even signed by Emperor Li Yan himself.
For things like treason, punishing the Nine Clans is the proper meaning of the title, but Suo Xun and Zhang Huaiding have special identities. necessary.
So what Li Ye and Li Yan meant was to eliminate their wives, children and all party members.
On the day of the execution, there were huge crowds of people around the execution ground, not to mention blocking the streets and alleys, and the attics far and near were also crowded with people. Li Ye suspected that all the people from Shazhou were present.
Suo Xun had been in despair for a long time, and he didn't know where he had gone. His appearance of being numb and waiting for punishment made Li Ye suspect that he was actually dead. Because even when his wife, Suo Zhang, jumped up to bite her, grabbed him, cried out in pain that he had harmed his son and his whole family, and cursed him that he would never be reborn, he did not move.
Zhang Huaiding was much worse. The moment before his head was cut off, he cried bitterly and shouted his innocence, saying that he was bewitched by Suo Xun, at most he had committed a stupid crime. It's a pity that he woke up too late and didn't understand. He was extremely stupid and made a big mistake, and he would be punished.
When the knife was up and down, Suo Xun, Zhang Huaiding and others became corpses. Just like this, the onlookers applauded and applauded. It can be said that they are destined to be infamous forever.
After staying in Shazhou for a while, Li Ye took King Qi and other big monks and set off back to Chang'an.
Naturally, Li Xian would not go back. He said that he was used to life at the frontier, and Uighurs had to be on guard. Li Ye still went to see Nangong No. 1, but the scene he saw was unsightly, and the gesture of flirting with Xiaoni made him retreat, and he knew that the other party did not intend to return to Chang'an.
Back in Chang'an, Li Ye still didn't have any leisure time, a lot of military and state affairs were waiting for him to deal with, and he buried his head in the files every day, and King Genqi didn't even have time to drink a little wine or enjoy the full moon .
As King Qi expected when he was in Hexi, King Jian of Shuzhong did not attack Chang'an. This is not because he is willing to be a salted fish, but because the southwestern border of central Sichuan itself is not stable. In order to deal with the Nanzhao army marching northward, Wang Jian himself was very busy.
When he fought in the Central Plains before, Wang Jian lost too many soldiers and generals, which hurt the foundation of Shuzhong. This time, facing the Nanzhao army taking advantage of the situation to invade the border, the war was quite difficult, mainly because the army was not enough.
If he hadn't fought bloody battles and been at the forefront, the Nanzhao army might have reached Chengdu.
Li Ye also sighed when he received the information from the Central Sichuan Province sent back from the Tsingyi Yamen.
"At present, the country is peaceful, and the feudal towns are subject to surrender. Only Wang Jian is named Tang Chen, and he is really a traitor. But this time Nanzhao gathered hundreds of thousands of troops to invade the border. He led the monks and soldiers under his command to fight fiercely for many days, and still defended the territory. , whether it is out of loyalty to the imperial court or not, he has finally fulfilled his duty as a Tang Dynasty."
When Li Yan came to Zhongshu Province to visit the class, Li Ye told him about the situation in Sichuan, and he had such a feeling.
Li Yan hated the files, and it would be a kind of torture for him to deal with the memorials, but as long as he didn't face the documents, he was still interested in discussing with Li Ye about matters big and small in the middle school.
"Wang Jian is a clown. Right now, Guanzhong is peaceful. There are no more rebellions in feudal clans and towns, and no thieves attacking each other. All states and counties are governed properly. Even in places with disasters, there are no mob riots. This is my great Tang Dynasty. elephant!"
Li Yan spat and said: "Brother Ye regained Hexi in ten months, rescued the rebel army from the fire and water, and extended the true control of the Tang Dynasty to Yangguan. This is a great achievement and must be praised by future generations! In the middle of Sichuan, it is so difficult to beat a Nanzhao savage, why don't you come to Chang'an, bow your head and kneel in front of our brothers?"
These words made Li Ye dumbfounded.
Although the words are rough, the truth is such a truth.
Li Ye said: "In the next year, the imperial court's important tasks are nothing more than two points. One is to pacify Shuzhong; the other is to take back the power of the feudal towns and establish the authority of the central government on the basis of continuing to implement the New Deal so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment."
Li Yanda nodded his head, expressing his firm approval of Li Ye's proposition, then with a big wave of his hand, he pushed everything to Li Ye, and he returned to Miyagi happily, and continued to enjoy the peace.
After the Chinese New Year, it is the Lantern Festival. This is a big day for the whole world to celebrate. Chang'an City, which has been lonely for many years, finally ushered in a prosperous festival year.
