The Path of the Sage

Chapter 1494: Elephant Tyrant

Views:

Even the weakest rat barbarian has arms that are thicker than the legs of an adult human.

A very faint red mist-like line emerged from the body of each barbarian, and all the red lines connected to a large blood-red flag high in the sky.

Qi and blood demon flag.

As long as their bodies are not cut off directly or their weaknesses are not severely damaged, their injuries will be shared by all the barbarians under the Qi and Blood Demon Flag, and the wounds will heal within a few breaths.

Suddenly, the earth shook and dust flew up in front of the left.

The numerous military flags of the Lumen Army did not block the sides. Fang Yun turned his head and looked, and it seemed that a small sandstorm was rolling up there.

Inside the sandstorm, there is a huge black shadow.

It was a three-meter-tall giant running, but his head was shaped like an elephant.

"It's the Elephant Barbarian King!"

"Among the original five barbarian kings in Lianshan Pass, there was one called Xiangba, who was said to have a bad temper!"

"What is he doing?"

The elephant king rushed to a few miles away from the army, suddenly jumped high, and then fell heavily.

boom!

The surging energy and blood spread from his feet along the ground in all directions.

With the Elephant Barbarian King as the center, countless cracks appeared on the ground within a radius of one mile. Some places were sunken, some were protruding, and the originally flat ground became uneven.

The elephant king jumped again and landed a hundred feet away, then he jumped again and again, trampling the ground continuously.

"It's over..." Fang Yun sighed silently in his heart.

The only way for the army to break out is to concentrate all the cavalry, launch an attack, and fight with all their strength. Maybe there is still a chance, but when the elephant destroys the terrain, the soldiers can run, but it is impossible to form a charge. Losing speed means losing the possibility of breaking out.

Only victory can keep moving forward.

Fang Yun glanced ahead and saw that apart from the Elephant King who was constantly jumping and destroying the terrain, the other two Barbarian Kings were motionless, as if they were just spectators.

Fang Yun has seen two barbarian kings, namely Xiongbei and Langdan.

"There are only three Barbarian Kings here. Where are the other three Barbarian Kings in Lianshan Pass? Especially the mysterious but cunning Barbarian King Hu Mu. Is he hiding here or somewhere else?"

Fang Yun swept the barbarian army. Except for a few fox barbarians who used crude illusions, the rest of the barbarians did not use any illusions because no illusions could hide from Fang Yun's eyes.

"Could it be that they use their powerful Qi and blood to shrink their bodies like the previous wolf orders? This possibility is very small. They have used it once and will not use it a second time."

Fang Yun was just thinking about it when Lu Menhou suddenly took a deep breath, and his tongue burst into a sound like spring thunder, the sound of which could be heard for hundreds of miles.

"Soldiers of Zhucheng, listen to my orders. I and my army are blocked by the barbarians more than 200 miles outside Zhucheng. Immediately ask for help from the Qishan Army and the imperial court."

Afterwards, the Hanlin General who was in charge of guarding Zhucheng burst into laughter and said, "What else do you want to tell me, sir?"

"Save your talent. Also, don't reveal the whereabouts of the reinforcements!" Lu Menhou said only four words. As a university scholar, his voice could be transmitted over a hundred miles without consuming too much talent. But facing the three barbarian kings, no matter how frugal he was, it would not be too much.

"Yes, sir!" responded the Hanlin general guarding the city.

Hearing the word reinforcements, Fang Yun vaguely guessed a possibility, but thought it was very unlikely, so he secretly sent a message to Zhang Qingfeng, asking Zhang Qingfeng to find a way to tell Lumen Hou. Fang Yun knew that if he told Lumen Hou, the other party would not only not believe him, but would think he had ulterior motives.

"What on earth did Zhang Wankong do to make the King of Chu, Marquis Lumen and others firmly believe that he is a traitor? However, it doesn't seem to be important now. What's important is that I might die here."

Fang Yun's thoughts were in turmoil. It was a well-known fact that humans were good at defense, while monsters were good at attack. The only way humans could fight against monsters was heavy cavalry charge, but now the cavalry was useless, and the army had no choice but to passively defend.

Once a head-on attack with the barbarians takes place and the barbarians rush into the army, the human race will undoubtedly lose.

"So, the battle will inevitably turn into a situation where the barbarians attack and the humans defend. The barbarians here are different from those in Shengyuan Continent. They don't have the mentality of dying together, so they will try to reduce casualties as much as possible, which means that the intensity of the battle will not be too high. If 400,000 troops defend, these 100,000 barbarians may not be able to break through within two or three days. Lumen Hou doesn't let me participate in the battle, and I can't waste time in vain."

Fang Yun thought about it, then dismounted, sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, and tried to multitask, reciting the saints' scriptures with his body and mind at the same time.

Fang Yun recited silently in his heart, while his mind was reciting aloud the holy scriptures in the Wen Palace, starting with the "Book of Changes", the source of all scriptures, without missing a word, one book after another.

The classics of the saints possessed immense power. Every time Fang Yun uttered a word, the entire Wen Palace would vibrate imperceptibly. And after each vibration, the invisible pressure created by the destiny of the Chu State would be alleviated a little.

As the pressure on Chu's national destiny was reduced, Fang Yun's energy and the speed at which the smoke column turned into cloud increased.

In addition, every word in the classics of the saints is like cleansing the entire palace of literature. The walls of the palace of literature, the lights of the literary mind, the literary courage, the stars of the palace of literature, the statues of the palace of literature, the talents and everything else are all baptized by the power of the classics of the saints.

Reciting the scriptures of the saints is the most basic way of practice for the human race.

People around him suddenly noticed that Fang Yun's temperament had changed. He became solemn, tall and straight, which made people admire him and dare not approach him.

The experienced Su Lun immediately knew that Fang Yun was practicing and trying his best to break through. He was about to have his men surround Fang Yun, but then he changed his mind and called for a carriage and had the soldiers carry Fang Yun into the carriage.

Having lost the possibility of a charge, Lu Menhou made a prompt decision and ordered the soldiers to form a defensive formation. He also ordered Wei Changxian to use his tongue to cheer up the army.

Wei Changxian was an excellent eloquent man, and with just a few words he gave the soldiers hope, and they began to hold their ground and wait for rescue.

As time passed slowly, everyone discovered that the barbarian king, the elephant tyrant, was jumping all over the ground like a ball, then ran back to the barbarian camp covered in sweat and fell asleep. Many elephant barbarians surrounded it and fanned it with their huge ears.

The Barbarian King Xiong Bei and Lang Dan sat in front of the barbarian army, drinking and eating the braised meat prepared for them by the human captives.

The barbarian army had no intention of attacking.

After eating and drinking his fill, Langdan shouted with a smile, "Where is my brother Zhang? Still being bullied by Marquis Lumen? I think you are a talented person, why don't you join my barbarian tribe with your father?"

A Xiong Manhou nearby asked in a low voice, "Did Zhujiang Hou really surrender to us?"

In the hearts of most barbarians, only Zhang Wankong is the Marquis of Zhujiang.

Langdan rolled his eyes at the bear barbarian and said, "Of course, I can testify!"

Wei Changxian wished that what Langdan said was the truth, but he could only tell the whole army with his eloquence that this was a trick of the barbarians to alienate the human race.

Langdan immediately seized this loophole and shouted, "If what I said was false, how could Lumenhou suppress Brother Zhang? Of course, there is another possibility. Lumenhou is suspected of treason and he is framing Zhang Longxiang. Brother Lu, Zhang Longxiang is not a traitor, but you are. Come and fight for the barbarians with us!"

Marquis Lu Men said with a swift tongue: "There is no point in talking any more. I think it would be better if the two of us, the Grand Secretaries, could fight against your three barbarian kings."
