Chapter 329 The Prophecy of Darkness and Dawn
The attack was sudden.
The Noxian army was so well prepared in advance that it was not until the soldiers with swords approached the outer edge of the village less than a hundred paces away that a villager who wanted to go out discovered this group of people wearing red and black armor.
The "uninvited guest" of clothes.
The suddenness of the war gave him only time to scream before he was shot through the throat by a long arrow and nailed to the door frame.
But his scream also attracted the attention of the villagers in Wuji Village.
Many people ran out of the house and saw the silent villagers and the menacing Noxian soldiers who rushed into the village entrance.
Immediately afterwards, a killing began.
Thousands of years of seclusion have left the villagers in Wuji Village unprepared for sudden changes.
There are no high walls, no pits, no traps, and no defenses.
In the eyes of the ferocious-looking Noxian soldiers, these people were like harmless lambs who were scattered when charged by a group of military formations.
Crying and howling, he was chopped down one by one with swords.
In less than five minutes, hundreds of people were massacred.
At this time, many villagers living in the back of the village still looked confused.
But soon, someone woke up first. While shouting loudly to wake up the dazed people, they rushed home and picked up their swords, then rushed out of the house again to face the Noxians.
Due to the Wuji Sword Sect, the people in this village have been good at iron and forging for thousands of years, and they all have more or less martial arts and sword skills from the Wuji Sect.
Although compared to the Wuji Sword Sect's extensive and profound swordsmanship, it is like cloud mud, but it is enough to deal with some poisonous snakes and beasts in the mountains.
However, the swordsmanship that they usually relied on was completely worthless in front of the Noxians who had a well-organized army and a reasonable division of labor.
Several villagers rushed over with long swords and howling, trying to use their crude swordsmanship to deal with a three-man Noxian team.
However, the long swords they swung were blocked by the strong shields, and their bodies that tried to dodge were chopped and knocked over by the following long swords, causing blood to splash.
Countless villagers and farmers were cut down in this way, while the slightly stronger hunters and blacksmiths were eliminated one by one by the soldiers of Julian's centurion.
In just a quarter of an hour, the village road was covered with blood.
The Noxian soldiers who received the order showed no mercy at all. They lit up flames and threw the destructive and scorching rocket torches onto the houses, sheds, and railings along the road.
It's windy on the top of the mountain.
The fire that rose up in the smoke spread quickly under the influence of the wind. The huge fire was like a roaring fire dragon, ravaging the vegetation of these houses that were hundreds of years old.
It was only then that someone woke up:
These invaders came with the intention of complete destruction!
They didn't want to leave anyone alive!
It was only then that someone, under the loud shouts of his companions, turned and ran towards the center of the village.
At this point, only by inviting swordsmen from the Wuji Sect can we fight against these evil demons.
The rising smoke clouds danced and swirled wildly in the sky. The fire engulfed several houses in an instant and spread at an extremely fast speed.
Such a scene can be clearly seen by ordinary people even thousands of meters away, let alone a swordsman who practices swordsmanship.
In fact, when the Noxians rushed into the village, they were startled by the loud shouts of killing.
Although Yi went down the mountain and took away most of the swordsmen, there are still many swordsmen left in the sword sect. More importantly,
Among them were three sword masters including Yifa, Yi's master.
This is also the hope of the villagers at this time.
"Those sword masters who are like gods will definitely be able to kill these demons that invade the village!"
In front of the Wuji Sword Sect's high tower.
The swordsmen of the Reushou Sword Sect had all gathered in the open space in front of the pagoda.
The clouds of smoke flying in the sky can't hide it from anyone, and the smell of blood has already blown with the wind into the hearts of these swordsmen who are usually taught not to be stained by blood and not see the troubled world.
Those cries and painful pleas suddenly made these swordsmen angry.
They put on their weapons and battle clothes and gathered in front of the tower, waiting for the instructions from the Sword Master Ifa.
...
"Brother, give the order." Two men who could be called sword masters stood by the window in front of the tower, looking into the distance.
The blood that filled the air, the killing intent that filled the sky, and the thoughts full of resentment all fell into their eyes and hearts.
One of the sword masters named Sauron spoke.
Another sword master named Mulan did not say anything, but also looked at Yifa who was still sitting in the middle of the hall with his eyes closed and meditating.
It seems like there are two worlds inside and outside the hall
The sky outside the palace was stained with blood, and the sound of Sanskrit could be heard in the palace.
For a long time, Ifa stopped reciting Sanskrit silently, slowly opened his eyes, and the long sword suspended in front of him slowly fell to his knees. A flash of light flashed in Ifa's eyes, and he looked at the two junior brothers quietly.
"The founder of the sect, the founder of the Wuji sect, the Patriarch Wuji said that the swordsmanship of all members of the Wuji sect should not see the troubled world, should not be stained by blood, and should be isolated from the world in order to cultivate the supreme swordsmanship."
"If that's the case, why leave another sentence?"
"When the land filled with magical energy undergoes changes, it falls into darkness, or embraces dawn."
"Does it mean now?"
In the past, Yifa didn't understand, but when the war spread to this quiet village, he vaguely understood.
After a long silence, Yifa spoke softly.
"You two junior brothers can go on your own."
Then he closed his eyes and said nothing.
The two sword masters looked at each other, raised their hands and waved, two long swords flew out from the high platform and landed firmly in the palms of the sword masters.
Pushing open the large window at the top of the tower, let the howling wind blow into the hall, causing the candlelight in the hall to sway and the sleeves to roll up.
Sauron and Mulan looked at dozens of pairs of war-filled eyes below. Their figures floated in the air, fell from the high tower, and walked in the air, as if they were banished immortals.
"Disciples of the Wuji Sword Sect listen to the order, pick up the sword in their hands, use all their knowledge to defend our homeland, and never lose their passion."
"Yes!" Following the loud words of the two sword masters, all the disciples of the Wuji Sword Sect drew out their long swords. At the same time, in the temples around the pagoda, some disciples pushed the wooden stakes hard and rang the big bell.
.
The bell rang nine times in a row, the sound soaring into the sky,
With the sound of bells that shook the valley, the swordsmen walked out of the high wall, rushed into the red and black ocean, and fought with the invading Noxian soldiers.
The sword clanked, the clothes were stained with blood,
With the anger in their hearts, they used all they had learned in their lives,
Chapter completed!
