Only then did Chen Hai know that Li Yongchang was the deacon elder of the Cangling Taoist Temple of the Zixu Sect and had a high status in Cangling City.
When Zhao Xuanming abandoned Jiuyuan Fortress, Li Yongchang also served as the commander of the outpost camp of the Canngling City defenders. He was also the first person to engage the Canngling City defenders in battle with the demon advance scouts. Before entering the city, he suffered heavy losses and fled back to Canngling City.
Zhou Wenwei and Chen Zhengqing were guarding the border at Jiuyuan Fortress and experienced many bitter battles, but none of them was so shocking.
Seeing that Chen Hai refused to give in, the Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen did not want to die with him, so he had no choice but to retreat. At the same time, he also ordered the demon soldiers and generals to retreat slowly, ending the first wave of strong attacks!
Chen Hai believed that people like them could possibly organize a maximum of 50,000 to 60,000 defenders within an hour; and after withstanding the first wave of offensive, he would still have to rely on people like Li Yongchang to continue to mobilize all the ordinary people in the city. Those brave people who dared to fight were organized and sent to the battlefield.
Although Li Yongchang is not the commander-in-chief of the garrison, he is the highest-ranking general of the garrison currently staying in the city. As the commander of the garrison outpost camp, he can still stay in the city at this time. Although he has no delusions of saving the entire city's soldiers and civilians, he still has the courage to do so. It's admirable - almost half of the other dozen or so spiritual realms are serving in the military. Like Li Yongchang, they all come from poor families, so that in the end they didn't even have the spirit bird warriors to escape with their closest relatives.
It was already approaching dusk at this time, and under the shining of the setting sun, the entire city of Canngling shone with a strange light—according to normal times, smoke would be curling up from cooking stoves and the city would be prosperous, but at this moment it was facing the disaster of being overturned at any time.
Wu Zhen made two wrong cuts, creating a fifty- to sixty-meter-wide gap in the nearly thirty-meter city wall and the north tower. The demon princes in the array of demon soldiers also took action with their weapons to continue to open the gap, and finally Forming a thousand-step offensive gap.
Thick clouds rolled in, and the sky thundered like rain.
The Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen finally recognized Chen Hai at this moment, but he did not expect that Chen Hai, who had only entered the heavenly realm thirty or forty days ago on the bank of the Taoyuan River, actually had the physical indestructibility that theoretically only the third heavenly realm could possess. He had bad magical powers, and he never thought that Chen Hai could control such terrifying power.
After destroying the North Tower, the Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen was quite surprised to see that the various soldiers in the city were organized so quickly. His hideous and ugly blue face only twitched slightly, showing no intention of flinching. , waving the front finger of the blood-bone demon sword, the demon soldiers and demon generals suddenly accelerated, crossing the gap and killing forward.
The defense line composed of ordinary generals did not collapse, and the speed of the demon soldiers advancing forward was suddenly suppressed. Although the protective formation of tens of thousands of demon soldiers was powerful, it could not withstand the swords and weapons of thousands of elite warriors. Continuous killing.
At this moment, Zhou Wenwei felt how terrifying the consequences of Chen Hai and the Great Demon Lord Wuzhen's attack were.
Chen Hai vomited a mouthful of blood, but without hesitation, he condensed the ten-foot purple gold giant sword again.
When Chen Hai was in the Tao Embryo Realm, he could slash out a sword at will with the Sword Intent of Heaven, Earth, Mountains and Rivers, which would consume almost half of his spiritual energy, and would also cause his acupoints to be unable to withstand the backlash and suffer heavy damage.
The solution to the two contradictions is to use the ordinary generals and the able-bodied ordinary people as human shields, and push them forward in a steady stream, regardless of the number of casualties, so that the Tianhe Sect's bird-controlling disciples can attack within three to five thousand steps. Use external swords or weapons to kill demon soldiers and generals, or organize a small-scale counterattack...
However, although Li Yongchang was seriously injured, he still risked his life and sneaked back into Canngling City with his two disciples afterwards, hoping to find an opportunity to rescue his family.
The Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen didn't know that Chen Hai dragged the Great Demon Lord Yan Xun, who was transformed into a giant beast of flesh and blood, into the thunder tribulation. The power of the first and second wave of thunder tribulations increased by thirty to forty times, and Chen Hai carried After living in the tribulation, how could the benefits that Chen Hai could get from overcoming the tribulation not be correspondingly improved
The Heaven, Earth, Mountain and River Sword that Chen Hai has comprehended can be said to be one of the most domineering Xuan Gong methods in the Xingheng Region so far. It is extremely powerful when used, and its backlash is extremely terrifying.
The ten-foot-long purple-gold giant sword is still condensing the earth's spiritual energy, which makes the great devil Wu Zhen feel dumbfounded. It can clearly sense the terrifying power condensed by the ten-foot-foot purple gold giant sword, which even exceeds the limit it can control. At this time, Chen Hai seemed to be quite at ease.
The Dao Dan Realm Tianhe Sect disciples also took action together at this time, dozens of miles apart, using the spiritual sword magic weapon to strangle the winged demons who wanted to fly over the north city wall and attack the city.
The pressure on Qin Hushan's side was already great enough. They lacked the war cavalry spirit birds and could not move in quickly. Chen Hai could not expect Qin Hushan to send troops and horses from 10,000 to 20,000 miles away to reinforce Cangling City at this time. In fact, whether they can delay the main force of the demon soldiers on the eastern front from escaping westward and buy time for the hundreds of millions of civilians in Beiting to retreat westward depends on the contest between him and Wuzhen's demon soldiers.
When the demon soldiers approached, the vast majority of the defending generals and clan mystical cultivators finally chose to give up and escape. The tribesmen who could not wield swords or fly with air, and did not have spirit bird warriors to escape, Li Yongchang was forced by the situation and had no choice but to He watched helplessly as his uncultivated family members were treated like animals and driven back to Canling City.
Stepping into the third realm of heaven is just one of the benefits.
An hour passed quickly. Chen Hai did not directly guard the Beicheng Tower, but retreated to the open space south of the Beicheng Tower to form a formation.
Although the demon soldiers are still advancing slowly, their speed has slowed down - but no matter how slow the demon soldiers are, it only takes an hour to reach the city at a distance of less than thirty miles.
Even if Jiang Yin's disciples have inherited the secret method of Liuyang Palace, they don't know if they have taken the elixir passed down from Liuyang Palace since ancient times and tempered it. It is definitely not comparable to ordinary human sect disciples, so they can step into it in one fell swoop. The physical body is not bad, but it shouldn't be able to control such a terrifying power without suffering backlash.
However, as they marched eastward, they have only encountered a large number of elite demon soldiers along the way, and at this time, they have been confirmed to be Wu Zhen, one of the four demon kings of the third and middle realms of Xuanyin Valley who came from the gap of Jiuyuan. It can be sure that Qin Hushan and the others have not collapsed yet, and they have blocked the three to four million demon soldiers on the eastern front, unable to let them out of Weishan.
The formula of Tiandao Jiling Pill is almost the same as ordinary Jiling Pill. That is, when refining a furnace of Jiling Pill, a true dragon saliva breath pill will be added. These dozen people take Tiandao Jiling Pill. As long as he can survive this battle, Gen Gu can at least improve to a higher level than before.
You must know that the strongest attack that any mysterious cultivator can perform is related to his own endurance limit.
At this time, there were more than a dozen Xuanxiu disciples in the city who were in the spirit realm and rushed to Beicheng Tower to meet Chen Hai.
To put it bluntly, Chen Hai will use the flesh and blood of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of ordinary people as shields in this battle to create a safe distance between the bird-control disciples of the Tianhe Sect and the demon soldiers and demon generals. Blocking demon soldiers and demon generals will enter the city, and they must avoid close combat between the two sides.
As for the other dozen or so spiritual cultivators, some of whom were even disciples of the Tianhe Sect's outer sect, they stayed in Cangling City mainly because they were reluctant to give up their family members who could not escape...
Such an exchange ratio was definitely not what the Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen wanted to see. He roared angrily and led the six-headed demonic dragon directly into the front line.
After the war started, the vitality of the world was in chaos. The wind was howling and the thunder was crashing. It was raining heavily and the water was rolling on the Cangling Lake. However, at this moment, Cangling Lake gave people a feeling of being alive. The spiritual veins extending for hundreds of miles under the city resonated with the ten-foot-long purple gold sword condensed in front of Chen Hai!
Chen Hai didn't have time to send people to contact Qin Hushan and Wu Zhidong, but he could imagine that there must be a large group of winged demons, magic dragons, and demon lords gathering at the western foot of Shiwei Mountain, and it would be difficult for ordinary scouts to penetrate them.
The Great Demon King Wu Zhen has a four-armed demon body, more than thirty meters tall, holding the Demon Emperor Halberd and the Blood and Bone Demon Sword. He is among the array of demon soldiers, like a moving castle. Every step he takes makes the earth tremble. The purple scales all over his body exuded an eerie luster under the last rays of the setting sun.
More than a hundred demon generals and eight demon princes were all powerful. They and some elite demon schools stood up to withstand most of the offensive. However, the entire front line could not move forward and tear apart the flesh-and-blood defense line composed of tens of thousands of miscellaneous soldiers. Unable to fight in close combat with the elite disciples of the Tianhe Sect, the demon soldiers are always at a disadvantage in long-range attacks.
Another advantage is that Chen Hai's physical body itself has a strong foundation that cannot be improved with real ambergris breath. This time, it has been most thoroughly tempered by the original power of the avenue.
And once he uses the Heaven, Earth, Mountains and Rivers Sword, Chen Hai must immediately decide the winner against a powerful enemy, because he will no longer have any fighting power in the future - this was the case when Xin Yancheng killed Demon Lord Shu Yue.
"Li Yongchang, the deacon of the Cangling Lake Taoist Academy of the Zixu Sect, paid homage to the True Lord. I don't know where the True Lord is practicing in the fairy mountain, but he was entrusted by the True Lord, the leader of the Zixu Sect, to come here specifically to rescue Cangling City?" Middle-aged? The man was seriously injured, his face was pale, and he felt a little helpless when he stood at the foot of the North Tower. Just now he just barely managed to fly with his sword, looking at the demon soldiers slowly approaching outside the city, but he showed no fear and said to Chen Hai.
We only need to kill these miscellaneous soldiers. If the human race's elite bird-controllers do not retreat, they will only die in close combat with them. If the human race's elite bird-controllers want to distance themselves and circle around Canngling City, they only need to control them. A certain number of ordinary people can set up the blood refining magic array. By then, let alone Canngling City, the mountains, lakes and rivers with a radius of four to five hundred miles with Canngling City as the center are all within their attack range. Worried about what these clowns might do
"Heaven, Earth, Mountains and Rivers Sword! You are Chen Hai, the disciple of Golden Sword Immortal Jiang Yin!"
In fact, the human race has mainly used this tactic to fight against the demons for a long time, but they did not expect that the human shield used in this way would be so weak.
The organization speed of these miscellaneous soldiers was beyond its imagination, but the Great Demon Lord Wu really did not believe that these miscellaneous soldiers, who were not much stronger than ants, could really withstand the rampage of his blue-scaled demon guards.
At this moment, the blue-scaled demon guards were fierce, and the rising blood evil stirred up the vitality of the world into chaos. However, the body of Cang Yiji who had passed through the tribulation was one of the seven divine guard puppets inherited from Liuyang Palace. He forcibly took Qin Chuan's immortal spirit blood and the quenched body of the True Ambergris Breath Pill, and entered the realm of heaven. His strength was so strong that it could not be compared to the strong men of the human race who were in the first realm of the heaven. However, more than thirty people were able to do so in such a short period of time. The Flame Crane and Thunder Vulture, who have successfully understood the Nine-Yuan Return to God Mantra, can be said to be the most intelligent among the thousands of spiritual birds raised by Tianhe Sect, one of the four sects in Beiting. They can be said to be the majestic essence of spiritual energy. Chun, they formed the Nine-Yuan Guishen Formation, joined forces with Cang Yi, and instantly struck like a waterfall of thunder, instantly blasting dozens of demon soldiers charging forward into charcoal!
However, this is the case. The generals who can only be called miscellaneous soldiers from now on are still like ants. With the encouragement of Li Yongchang and others, they continue to fill in the gaps that were crushed by the demons, like a blood twister.
Every moment like this, although hundreds of ordinary generals died, there were also dozens or twenty blue-scaled demon guards or winged demons killed by the spirit sword magic weapon or flame flow thunder.
Chen Hai left Li Yongchang alone and told him the truth: "We are not here just to save a dozen of your children from the tiger's mouth, but more importantly, we hope to cooperate with Yuanyang Sect's leader Qin Hushan and Supreme Elder Wu Zhidong After the rendezvous, we can support the eastern front for more time, so that the soldiers and civilians in Canngling and other cities can have the opportunity to withdraw to the west. That is to say, our best efforts can only provide you with a first-line opportunity, and the east of Canngling City The most optimistic estimate of how many soldiers and civilians will be able to escape in the end may not exceed one-fourth or five-fifths, but even for this one-fourth-fifth chance, you must fight for it with your lives... "
He knew that Chen Hai and his group of more than a thousand people were no match for the tens of thousands of demon soldiers outside the city. What's more, the gap in Jiuyuan had been opened, and although the main force of the demon soldiers on the eastern front was blocked, a large number of wing demons and other flying demon soldiers were still there. We can still cross Shiwei Mountain quickly. As the war continues, the demon soldiers will only get stronger and stronger.
If he can severely damage Wu Zhen and make it difficult for the four to five million demon soldiers attacking from the Jiuyuan Gap to threaten Qin Hushan and their retreat, then they can take advantage of the steep terrain of Shiwei Mountain to delay for a longer period of time - and If the main force of the eastern front demon soldiers wants to avoid Suolongxing and take a detour from other places to enter the eastern region of Beiting, it will take at least three to five months.
At this moment, where Chen Hai was standing, green spiritual energy poured into the purple-gold giant sword like a torrent. In an instant, the purple-gold giant sword turned from virtual to real, condensing into a terrifying power that even the Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen could not imagine!
The Great Demon King Wu Zhen didn't know how strong the fighting spirit of ordinary generals was after experiencing hellish despair and being ignited by the fire of hope from the dead. Moreover, most people saw with their own eyes that the demon soldiers and demon generals broke in and devoured them. Living people, they have the courage to pick up the shield and halberd at this moment, and they have the consciousness in their hearts that they would rather die in battle than to be eaten alive by these monsters.
Therefore, Chen Hai cannot easily use the Heaven, Earth, Mountains and Rivers Sword unless he has to.
The Great Demon King Wu Zhen lowered his head and glanced at the demon body. It withstood most of the attack power of the ten-foot-long purple gold giant sword, but the scattered sword energy tore open dozens of horrific wounds on its body - such injuries have no impact on its self-healing ability. For Wu Zhen, the great demon who was so powerful that he almost possessed the magical power of physical indestructibility, it was nothing. He just didn't expect that Jiang Yin's disciples could barely equal him.
Chen Hai ordered the spirit birds who had successfully comprehended the Nine Yuan Return to God Curse to form a team with Cang Yi to be used by the central army. Except for Zhou Wenwei, Chen Zhengqing and ten battalion lieutenants, the other thirty-one who had temporarily lost their spirit birds were The disciples of the famous Tianhe Sect were all temporarily organized into his guard camp. The remaining more than 900 elite imperial guards were divided into ten teams, led by Zhou Wenwei and Chen Zhengqing respectively. They were scattered on the two wings of the North Tower and were on standby to keep an eye on the demons. Every move of the soldiers.
Chen Hai took out a dozen Tiandao Lingling Pills from his arms and asked Li Yongchang and the others to take them. After that, he left Li Yongchang alone and asked the others to gather the scattered soldiers in the city to the north city as quickly as possible.
What's more, eight or nine hundred flame cranes and thunder eagles can all cast their innate spells nearby. The flames and thunder and the spiritual sword magic treasures are intertwined with each other like wind and rain, and the bloody evil in the protective formation can be torn apart in three to five breaths.
Cang Yi laid a thunder net in front of Chen Hai, as if the thunder net was torn apart instantly. Chen Hai was naturally not afraid of such an impact. He even formed a seal to release a protective mysterious light in an instant, and more than thirty Tianhe Sect guards behind Chen Hai. Wei also launched more than 30 protective formations, but there were dozens of generals outside, who were directly crushed into pulp by the unimaginable horrific impact...
"You spread the word that I will stay here during this battle and not take a step back, and all the generals who have been on the battlefield and are lucky enough to survive and follow me back to Beiling can join me to practice under the sect of my Beiling Marquis Chen Hai..." Chen Hai He spoke to Li Yongchang word for word.
Chen Hai stared at the giant tower-like figure of the Great Demon King Wu Zhen. The Yuan Fei in the ancestral aperture between his eyebrows had already exploded. Billions of purple-gold rays of light bloomed from his body, condensing into a ten-foot giant in front of him. Sword, the sky shook at this moment...
Yes, these generals can only be called scattered soldiers. Any blue-scaled demon guard wielding a mace or a hammer weighing hundreds of kilograms or even hundreds of kilograms can easily kill them. One or two people were beaten to a pulp. Zhou Wenwei was in mid-air. He could even see that at the moment when the two sides fought, his own formation was being crushed by the demon soldiers like an avalanche, like a giant piece of meat. The regiment was constantly being eaten away from the edges to the center by the demonic soldiers. Almost every breath, hundreds or even hundreds of people were killed, their limbs were broken, their heads were separated, or they were directly smashed into meat paste, and some were even killed. More than half of the people were directly shocked to death by the impact of Qi Jin...
Although Cang Yi lost the Thunder Bead, and although it had only been more than a month since he obtained the Sky-Destroying Thunder Seal, he borrowed the Nine-Yuan Return to God Formation and became one with the spirit of the Flame Crane and Thunder Vulture that had cultivated thirty or forty demon pills...
Li Yongchang couldn't think of a way to deal with it, so he just faced Chen Hai's gaze firmly, determined to risk his life and obey the orders.
Xuan Xiu sacrifices the magic weapon of the Spirit Sword three to five thousand steps away. After all, he is much more flexible than Wu Xiu in close combat. On the one hand, he can concentrate on attacking one demon, and on the other hand, he can avoid strong demons and attack weak demons...
And these three to five months mean that they can evacuate 3.5 billion ordinary people to the west of Zibai Mountain.
The defense line of Jiuyuan Fortress collapsed, and the attacking demon soldiers from the south were so powerful that the weak Cangling City could not be defended. The defenders and generals did not have the early cultivation level. When he and his clans fled from Cangling City in a hurry, Li Yongchang also He took his disciples to escort his family out of the city and fled south.
To be honest, if the Great Demon King Wu Zhen did not absorb the flesh and blood essence of ordinary people and fought purely with his physical body, Chen Hai would have the confidence to fight with it by relying on his physical body's indestructible magical power.
Although Li Yongchang cannot understand how powerful Chen Hai's level of cultivation and strength is, as an inner disciple of Zixu Sect, he has served as a deacon in the county Taoist academy for many years, and also served as a general in the garrison, so his knowledge is extraordinary. Compared with the people.
At this time, there were two young men at the Spiritual Realm, protecting a middle-aged man at the late stage of the Mingqiao Realm, and their swords were flying precariously towards this side.
Not to mention ordinary people, even elite generals with a foundation in Tongxuan Realm are pitifully weak in front of those blue-scaled demon guards who are comparable to those in the middle and late stages of the Spiritual Realm. Chen Hai has to give it no matter what. Only their slim hopes can inspire them to fight to the death one after another.
The ten thousand blue-scaled demon guards under the great demon king Wu Zhen are too strong. The existences of demon lords and demon generals are no less powerful than their Dao Dan realm. This means that once the demon soldiers get close, Tianhe will Zong Qianyu's imperial disciples would definitely not be able to hold on for long before they would be killed one after another, but they had to guard the front line of the city wall and not allow the demonic soldiers to enter the city.
For example, Cang Yi can release all the demonic energy in his body in a very short time, and may not even be able to catch a few powerful attacks from the great demon king Wu Zhen, but the consequence is that his Yuan Fei and all the orifices in his body will be destroyed. Those who cannot withstand the horrific backlash will be completely destroyed.
"I am Chen Hai, the Marquis of Beiling. I met with your master Zong Xi at Zibai Mountain and agreed that the Beiling Army and the Seven Sects would jointly control the demons. I led an elite team here to see how the demonic calamity is spreading here. Unexpectedly, all the demons have been There is such a powerful demon king who has led his troops to Cangling City." Chen Hai smeared the situation in Cangling City and wanted to evacuate the 50,000 to 60,000 defenders with the main generals and military attachés fleeing in just one hour. It is almost an impossible task to organize them all. Li Yongchang is still in the city. Seeing that he is courageous, it can be said that there is no end to the road. At present, he will simply follow the situation on his side and follow it briefly. Li Yongchang made an introduction.
Fortunately, the more than a thousand Tianhe Sect disciples finally had some fighting spirit, and some of the shattered defenders in the city also picked up their shields and halberds one after another at this time, and gathered towards the north city like a trickle; Not all those with cultivation in the city abandoned their clansmen and fled.
At this time, there is no protective formation in Canngling City. No matter how high or thick the city wall is, let alone the Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen, those few demon lord-level beings can knock down a gap in the city wall in just a few clicks. Come, so relying on the city to defend it is simply unrealistic.
"We may not have no chance of winning, and the three million ordinary people may not have no way of survival, but this opportunity and this way of life must be snatched from the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood." Chen Hai sighed and summoned Zhou Wenwei, Chen Zhengqing and ten battalion schools. Call over and explain the next war arrangements.
The demon soldiers suffered some losses and knew that if they wanted to rush for success, they would only suffer greater losses. At this time, they were forced to shrink their formation at the foot of the mountain and began to condense the blood demon seal to block the thunder. The more than a thousand winged demons did not move forward. They clashed in the city, then quickly retreated, searching the two wings of the North Mountain, trying to drive away the scattered civilians in the mountains and fields outside the city so that the witches and demons in the army could reluctantly set up the blood-refining magic array to reduce the pressure of the frontal conflict.
Compared with the Jiling Pill that can restore spiritual energy, there are only two more words, but there is a huge difference.
Seeing the ten-foot-long purple-gold giant sword coming, the four huge arms of the Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen glowed with a faint black brilliance, lingering like thick fog. The Demon King's Halberd and the Blood-Bone Demon Sword cut each other, and at that moment At that moment, Zhou Wenwei almost saw a crack in the black wall of space. A thin swirling black storm slashed out like a magic blade, directly and neatly cutting a nearby magic dragon in half before disappearing.
The most urgent task is to tear apart the defense line composed of human soldiers.
Once the demon soldiers are allowed to enter the city, not to mention the witches and demons under the great demon lord Wu Zhen, they will have the opportunity to borrow the flesh and blood of the mortals in the city to build a blood refining magic array. How many casualties would it take for them to survive the demonic slash just now? How many Taoist weapons and magic weapons did Chen Hai have in his hand that he could use up
The strong wind howls and the brilliance surges.
It ignored the magic swords and magic weapons flying around above its head. Those demon generals and demon lords were responsible for resisting it. Even if ten or eight of the human clan's Dao Dan Sword Master's spiritual swords slipped through the net and came towards it, there were not hundreds or even thousands of them. How much of a threat can the torrent of spiritual swords be
