The Path of the Sage

Chapter 1978: Holy Blood Fountain

Views:

"Use the whipping!" The Barbarian King Lang Yuan gave the order, and then two demon kings flew high into the sky with whips in their hands and continuously whipped Zhang Poyue.

When the people who had just arrived at the Sanlian Battle Fort saw this scene, they immediately knew why Zhang Poyue's clothes were so tattered.

Zhang Poyue gritted his teeth so hard that the corners of his mouth even bled, but he never shouted or asked for help. He just closed his eyes.

After a few breaths, Fang Yun took a deep breath, took a deep look at the barbarian camp in front of him, and turned and left.

Everyone left immediately.

Zhang Poyue didn't want them to watch, and they didn't want to watch either.

Everyone went down the city wall and arrived at the meeting hall of the battle fortress.

Fang Yun sat in the main seat and remained silent for a long time.

After a long while, Liu Hongcai said: "After the meeting, please ask Fang Xusheng to stay and let the three of us learn the song "Man Jiang Hong"."

Fang Yun nodded and said, "General Liu, you know the barbarians better than I do. Tell me what the barbarians will do next."

Liu Hong pondered for a moment and said, "The Barbarian King knows that it is difficult to stop you with the current military strength. Instead of scaring you into retreating early, it is better to keep everything as it is and use General Zhang as bait to make you hesitate whether to save him or not. Within three days, once the Wolf Saint Army arrives, they will launch a general attack. By then, you can either defend the three battle forts or escape alone, because no army can escape the siege of the Wolf Saint Army. The Wolf Saint Army has been dispatched three times in history and has never been defeated. Its reputation is no less than that of the Kong Family Army."

"We will be evacuating tomorrow morning, and we need to travel light. What methods will the barbarians use?" Fang Yun asked.

Liu Hong said without hesitation: "There are now more than 1.2 million soldiers and civilians in the three battle forts. Even if they travel light, they cannot shake off the barbarians. After all, the barbarians can directly absorb the vitality of heaven and earth. Even if it makes their bodies weak, they are stronger than humans on average, so they will definitely charge at full strength without any tricks."

Fang Yun said: "What if I can make a million people reach the level of demon soldiers and keep running all the way?"

Liu Hong and the other soldiers' eyes lit up, and then said: "If so, as long as we can continue to stop the barbarians, we can escape successfully. But... are you really willing to give up the Holy Blood and Holy Pages?"

"Even if it is a divine object, it is ultimately something outside of my body, so I will naturally be willing to give it up." Fang Yun said.

"Fang Xusheng is a true gentleman!" Liu Hong praised, and all the generals nodded in admiration.

Holy blood is an extremely important divine object in all realms. It is consumed more than replenished from generation to generation, and even the holy families will eventually run out of it.

There are only two ways to obtain holy blood. The first is from the saints, or the saints themselves give it, or kill the saints to obtain it. For example, when Fu Yue killed three demon clan semi-saints, he was willing to give away his broken wolf saint fangs and broken wolf saint eyes, but he was reluctant to give away his holy blood because holy blood can be quickly converted into power, while other parts cannot.

Most of Fang Yun's holy blood was donated by various families when he was crowned as a virtual saint, but most of it had to be returned as gifts one after another and could not be used indiscriminately.

The second way is to go to strange ancient places, dangerous places or secret places. However, the holy blood in many ancient places is left by the saints and the quantity is small. Only the Holy Burial Valley is different.

No one knows the origin of the Holy Burial Valley, but it has a unique holy blood spring.

The Holy Blood Spring can absorb the power between heaven and earth, and under the power of the thoughts of the saints in the Holy Burial Valley, it is gradually transformed into holy blood. However, this kind of holy blood only has power, without semi-holy consciousness. The disadvantage is that the power is small, but the advantage is that the saints can directly inject their thoughts into it to completely replace their own holy blood, and the power consumed is negligible.

Holy blood has always been a sought-after item in all realms, and can almost be considered as currency among the saints.

Among the human race, only the Kong family and the Holy Academy possess a large amount of holy blood, because Saint Kong killed too many saints from all walks of life in the past.

"However, the other party has the Burning Heaven Furnace, and even the water tribe is helpless against it. How can we restrain them?" Chen Youdao asked.

Zhang He said: "The Burning Heaven Furnace is a semi-saint treasure after all. If only one Great Barbarian King activates it, its power is limited. If it wants to stop our entire army, it may require multiple Great Barbarian Kings to activate it, or the Barbarian Emperor himself to take action. In other words, as long as we can hold back the Burning Heaven Furnace, it is equivalent to holding back half of the high-level forces of the Barbarians."

Everyone nodded slightly, including Fang Yun, because when he tested the power of the Burning Heaven Furnace before, he had already sensed that the Burning Heaven Furnace would require at least thirty Great Barbarian Kings to exert its basic function. Otherwise, it would be nothing more than a stronger Confucian scholar's treasure.

However, once the Burning Heaven Furnace can play its basic role, its power will be incredibly strong. Its overall strength is even stronger than many semi-saint treasures. After all, most of the semi-saint treasures of the human race are not mainly used for killing.

"Fang Xusheng, if you can solve the Burning Heaven Furnace, the retreat will be half successful." Liu Hong looked at Fang Yun.

Everyone also looked at Fang Yun.

Fang Yun thought for a moment and said, "I am 80% sure that I can greatly weaken the Burning Heaven Furnace, or force them to pay a huge price and make it difficult for them to pursue us."

Everyone's eyes were filled with joy.

"That's great!" Liu Hong was delighted.

"But... how to save General Po Yue?" Chen Youdao asked.

The meeting room fell silent again.

Zhang Poyue is a very sensitive topic. Zhang Poyue himself is a genius of Jing State and a good friend of Fang Yun. No one dares to say that they will not save him, but if they do, it is very likely that the price will be paid for by many university scholars, and at least half of the people present will die.

Liu Hong and the others looked at each other. Everyone knew that the Holy Academy was secretly protecting Fang Yun, but it was only protecting Fang Yun. It was impossible for them to help Fang Yun save Zhang Poyue. Moreover, the barbarians were backed by the demon world, and they were likely to have methods against the Holy Academy. As long as they created a few breaths of time to prevent the Holy Academy from taking action, the barbarians could kill Fang Yun.

"The people who are going to rescue Zhang Poyue are on the way here. When the opportunity comes tomorrow, they will take action." Fang Yun said.

"oh?"

The generals immediately started talking, and Fang Yun fell into deep thought.

"Could it be the literary giant Yi Zhishi? Apart from him, it seems that no one among the human race can rescue General Po Yue single-handedly. After all, his opponent is the Barbarian Emperor, and only Mr. Yi can be compared with him."

"It should be the new Dragon King Princess Yuwei of the Dragon Clan. As long as she comes, saving Zhang Poyue will be easy. As far as I know, Princess Yuwei is now no less powerful than the Demon King. Although Lang Yuan is strong, he may not last more than a hundred breaths in front of Princess Yuwei."

"It is also possible that someone from an aristocratic family brought along a semi-saint robe and crown and joined forces to help."

"Yes, I feel it should be the human race, most likely the Kong family. If the Kong family takes action, even the demon saint will retreat to show respect."

"You guys are so confused. Didn't Fang Xusheng bring a semi-saint ancient demon with him a few days ago? It must be him!"

"No, according to the information I got, the reason why the barbarians suddenly took action was because they knew that the ancient demon could not come."

"After talking for so long, no one can guess it. Let's ask Fang Xusheng."

Everyone looked at Fang Yun.

Fang Yun raised his head and said, "We will know the answer tomorrow."

The generals almost rolled their eyes.

In the meeting room, everyone continued to discuss the affairs of the Sanlian War Fortress. The beggar uncle Zhao Jingkong never showed up, like a hands-off boss.

After the meeting, the three battle fortresses began to operate like a huge machine, preparing for tomorrow's big retreat.
