The Path of the Sage

Chapter 1562: Barbarian King Attacks the City!

Views:

There are hundreds of barbarian kings in the preparation area of the demon camp.

"The whole army is on alert, the Barbarian King may go into battle!" Fang Yun spoke with thunderous eloquence. At the same time, the ministers of other armies warned their subordinates one after another.

Everyone's mind was shocked, and some people even showed horror.

There have been Demon Kings and Great Demon Kings attacking cities before, but they were all sudden attacks with no signs at all. But now the Barbarian King is slowly gathering in the war preparation area and making adequate preparations, which has a clearly different meaning.

A university scholar had long speculated that the next time the Demon King or the Barbarian King attacked the city would be the time to decide the outcome of the Battle of Bi Can.

At the same time, urgent letters were sent to the official seals of all scholars in Liangjie Mountain. Later, the Holy Academy and various ancient places also received the news.

All the forces of Liangjie Mountain were fully mobilized, and tens of millions of troops began to march towards the city walls of Liangjie Mountain. All scholars who were resting had their vacations cancelled.

Great scholars who had been practicing in seclusion in various places came out one after another and headed to the Holy Academy as quickly as possible.

Occasionally, there are loud thunder or strange lights in the sky above the Holy Temple. This is the phenomenon of the semi-saint will descending upon the Holy Temple.

Not only Liangjie Mountain, but the entire human race started moving like a huge mechanism because of the appearance of these barbarian kings.

The workers began to work overtime, the doctors waited for the call, the farmers prepared to quickly ripen the grain, and the rest of the families also prepared to enter Liangjie Mountain.

After hearing the news, some candidates were even ready to give up the Jinshi examination on December 15th.

Looking from the sky, Liangjie Mountain was separated by many peaks, but people in every place became busy, coming and going in a hurry, and a large number of people gathered in the direction of the Liangjie Mountain wall.

Outside the Liangjie Mountain, three hundred barbarian kings stood upright and floated in the air two hundred feet high, slowly flying towards the Liangjie Mountain.

Under the feet of these barbarian kings, the number of barbarians participating in the siege is more than five times that of usual days, and the proportion of barbarians and demon lords and commanders is even greater.

Seeing this scene, Fang Yun kept issuing orders to boost the morale of the troops, because this was a sign that the monsters were about to begin a large-scale siege on the city.

The status of the barbarians is slightly lower, so at the beginning they will send the Barbarian King to test the human race and consume the human race, but later, according to the human race's reaction, they will send the Demon King and the Barbarian King, abandon all tricks, and confront the human race head-on with absolute strength. The attack will be one wave after another until one side shows signs of defeat.

Three hundred barbarian kings were flying slowly in the sky, like three hundred mountains slowly pressing down. Before they got close, everyone could feel the momentum that was more terrifying than a hurricane.

"Ahh..."

A large number of monsters howled wildly, their blood-red eyes showing their murderous intent, and they rushed towards the wall of the boundary mountain like crazy.

While Fang Yun was issuing military orders and preparing, his spiritual consciousness also entered the conference hall to listen to what the other great scholars or university officials were saying.

But the scholars in the council hall did not discuss specific tactics.

"Three hundred barbarian kings have begun to attack the city. This is an important signal. The following demon kings and barbarian kings will not launch a surprise attack, but will attack continuously like waves."

"If the demons and barbarians are unable to hold out in the end, they will definitely end the Battle of Bi Can. When they have accumulated enough strength, they will directly send out the Demon Saint to start the Second Battle of the Two Worlds Mountain. However, if our army can no longer hold out and is forced to send out the Great Confucian Scholars, then they will immediately send out the Great Demon King and the Great Barbarian King to directly start the Second Battle of the Two Worlds Mountain! Of course, this is all my personal speculation."

"Some signs are already very obvious. We have all heard about some of the actions of the demon world. They are constantly mobilizing their troops. These days, the number of tents outside the demon city is increasing by as much as one million every day. If the saints do not come out, sooner or later all the human soldiers will be exhausted."

"Fortunately, the number of scholars in the human race has increased dramatically due to the changes in the Wenqu Star. Otherwise, the Battle of Bi Can would have been fought here, and we would have had no choice but to carry out the final forced conscription. Back then..."

The meeting hall suddenly became quiet. Except for Fang Yun, everyone here was over thirty years old. They could already remember the first battle between the Two Realms Mountains and what the scene was like back then.

Fang Yun did not experience it personally, but he had read in books that although the Shengyuan Continent was not so empty that nine out of ten houses were empty, half of the city was empty. A large number of men were forcibly conscripted to Liangjie Mountain, and the blood of hundreds of millions of men was shed on the two city walls.

After the war, widows with red eyes were everywhere in the human race, and the gender ratio of the human race is still extremely unbalanced.

After the Battle of Liangjie Mountain, the human birth rate skyrocketed. Some people speculated that the saints had used some means to make it easier for women to become pregnant.

More than twenty years have passed since the first battle of Liangjie Mountain. The children of that time have finally grown up and become the main force in the battle now.

In the past, the demon kings and barbarian kings would attack the city at the fastest speed, but these barbarian kings would hover in the air after flying a mile away, and when a large number of demons and barbarians began to climb the city walls, they used magic together.

"Cunning monster!" The human race cursed.

In order to target the demon kings, humans invented a large number of powerful mechanisms such as thunder iron poison arrows, but no matter how powerful these mechanisms are, their power will weaken as the distance increases.

These barbarian kings are located one mile away and can completely avoid attacks from any mechanism.

There are fifty armies on the city walls, which means that each army faces an average of six barbarian kings' witchcraft attacks.

Large-scale sorcery flew towards the armies on the walls of Jieshan City. There were all kinds of magic, including black fog with a fishy smell, huge bear claws, wolf heads hundreds of feet high, pitch-black tornadoes, and large rains of fire. There were all kinds of magic, covering the sky and the earth.

Almost all the soldiers were frightened by the powerful sorcery. It was like a huge dark cloud pressing down on them, and the human race seemed to have no power to fight back at all.

However, many university scholars and imperial scholars took action, and the power of splendid war poems rose, colliding with the witchcraft outside the city wall. Those witchcraft instantly became scattered, while the war poems of the human race continued to attack forward.

Many Barbarian Kings had to defend themselves or expend extra energy to break those war poems.

Many soldiers breathed a sigh of relief.

The real strength of the barbarian monsters lies in their talents and melee strength. The power of the barbarian king's magic is generally equivalent to 80% of the war poems of ordinary university scholars. Moreover, no matter whether it is the weakest new barbarian king or the strongest peak barbarian king, the power of the magic they use is almost the same, and it is difficult to enhance it.

On the human side, the Grand Secretaries present all have literary treasures and a relatively high level of calligraphy. They can even use the war poems of the Grand Secretaries of the Second Level, which are enhanced by various precious lights and are often several times or even dozens of times more powerful than the Barbarian King's magic.

However, many soldiers were nervous again, because although the magic of these barbarian kings was not strong, the speed of release was too fast. It could often take only one breath to complete the magic, and it was continuous without any rest.

Only by mastering the art of writing quickly can humans complete a poem in one breath.

As a result, some Hanlin scholars and university scholars had to use verbal sparring to break the sorcery.

Each army had to endure the magic of the six barbarian kings, and at the same time had to deal with more barbarians attacking the city, and casualties increased again.

Fang Yun did not take any action for the time being, and watched quietly as Zhang Qingfeng led the Pearl River Army to fight against the monsters.

Fang Yun originally reserved strength for the Barbarian Kings to climb the city wall. However, until the Qishan Army came to relieve the defense, those Barbarian Kings did not rush to the city wall, but retreated instead, and were replaced by the second batch of 300 Barbarian Kings.
