Liang Yan did not put on any airs, got out of the Luan car, and bowed to Tang Qian and Fang Duhai each.
The three of them were all in the Tribulation Realm. Although there was a huge difference in strength, they were still regarded as Taoist friends. Liang Yan's sincere attitude and pleasantries with the two of them made the last worries in Tang Qian and Fang Duhai's hearts disappear.
"Zongzhu Liang looks up to the mountain, he is admirable!" Fang Duhai said sincerely.
Tang Qian also smiled and said: "If Sect Master Liang joins the Xuanxin Palace during this trip, our army can be dispatched by Sect Master Liang from now on."
"Easy to say, easy to say." Liang Yan smiled slightly.
This is the result he wants.
In fact, with his strength, both the "Xuanhuang Mote Formation" and the "Spring Mud Edgeless Formation" can be easily broken. However, in this way, he fell into the trick of Lord Tianxie.
This person is sowing discord and tempting these generals who are guarding the gate to make things difficult for him. If he has no real skills and suffers a small loss on the road, his face will naturally be disgraced when the alliance comes. How can he have the nerve to say anything about joining the Xuanxin Palace?
But if you rely on your magical power to fight all the way through the pass, although you will be happy, you will inevitably get a reputation of "wanton behavior", and you will also have enemies with these generals who are guarding the pass. Even if you enter the Xuanxin Palace, you may not have much military morale.
Troops obey their own orders.
This is half a conspiracy. No matter whether you pass the test or fail, you have fallen into the evil scheme of Lord Tianxie.
Liang Yan had a clear mind, how could he not know the power of it? Therefore, he did not act recklessly, but persuaded Fang Duhai to call the door for him, which would save him a lot of trouble.
This move is also to establish one's own image.
Although Nanxuan's army is said to be tens of millions, there are probably only 20,000 or 30,000 monks who truly belong to the Seven Mountains and Twelve Cities. The rest are loose cultivators from various places or monks from other sects. These monks are also waiting and watching after joining Nanxuan's army.
Which mountain or city is more worthy of belonging?
Although Liang Yan is not good at fighting for power, it does not mean that he is not proficient in this way. His heart has nine orifices, and everything is shapeless. The power of it can be known at a glance.
"Here we go to Nanxuan Camp. There are eight or nine city gates. Many of the generals are my friends. Brother Fang can hold my token and they will be released at that time." Tang Qian said, taking out one from his sleeve.
The seal was handed into Fang Duhai's hands.
Fang Duhai was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Brother Tang is very popular. With this general seal, I will be more confident about opening the city gate."
Tang Qian smiled slightly, bowed to Liang Yan again and said, "I am the only one guarding Yunmengguan. I really can't escape and cannot accompany Sect Master Liang. Please forgive me."
"It doesn't matter."
Liang Yan waved his hand and said, "Fellow Taoist is willing to lend the general's seal, which has already done Liang a great favor. Moreover, I have Fang Duhai accompanying me, so I believe the journey will be smooth. The general should guard Yunmeng Pass. This is a top priority and cannot be neglected."
.”
"That's natural." Tang Qian smiled.
The three of them talked and laughed for a while, but without further delay, Tang Qian opened the city gate and led Liang Yan and the girls from Yuzhu Mountain through.
After passing Yunmeng Pass, the mountain became even steeper, but due to the suppression of the "Huntian Ridge" formation, everyone was unable to fly high and could only move forward along the steep mountain.
In this way, we traveled another 890,000 miles of mountain roads, passing five city passes along the way.
Sure enough, they were all acquaintances of Tang Qian. With Tang Qian holding the seal in his hand, and Duhai Xiaozhi being rational and emotional, Liang Yan passed through the five passes without losing any blood and headed straight for the Nanxuan camp.
In the early morning of that day, Liang Yan was meditating with his eyes closed in the car when he suddenly felt something and summoned Fang Duhai to ask questions.
"How many miles is there to go from here to Nanxuan Camp?"
Fang Duhai thought for a while and replied: "There are still about 620,000 miles left. If everything goes well and at the current marching speed, there are still about ten days."
"Are there ten days left?" Liang Yan pondered for a moment, and then asked again: "What city gate is ahead?"
This time Fang Duhai was in trouble. He shook his head and sighed: "I don't know. Fang is in charge of Fulong Pass and is responsible for logistics. He has never been called to the front line, so he is not familiar with the nearby city gates."
"In other words, we have reached the front line now?"
"It can be said that this place is close to Nanxuan Camp. Although it is not the main battlefield for fighting, it may also be attacked by sneak attacks." Fang Duhai pondered.
"No wonder!" Liang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly.
"What's the wonder?" Fang Duhai felt confused and asked subconsciously.
Liang Yan pointed his hand in the car and said in a deep voice: "There is a smell of blood in the northwest. There should be a battle. According to what you said, it is very likely that the Bei Ming Army will come to attack."
"ah?"
Fang Duhai was startled, and hurriedly ran his skills, focusing on the direction Liang Yan said, but he didn't notice anything unusual.
"Why don't I feel anything?"
Just as he was wondering, a fragrant wind suddenly hit him not far away. It was Nan Youyue who rode Qingluan, landed in front of the car, and said softly: "There seems to be something strange in the northwest. Do you want to send someone to check it out?"
Liang Yan pondered for a moment and said slowly: "We are both Nanxuan and allies. Since we are passing by, we still have to help."
"That's fine."
Nan Youyue got Liang Yan's order and immediately sent an order to the rear. All the female cultivators in Yuzhu Mountain turned around and flew to the northwest with Liang Yan's Luan chariot.
In just a moment, we passed the five hundred miles of mountain road.
I saw a poisonous cloud in the distance, as vast as the sea, covering the sky and the sun, covering a hundred miles in radius.
Under the cloud of poisonous clouds, one can see a city gate, towering and majestic, lying on the top of more than a dozen peaks. There are three big characters on the city gate, which is: "Jinling Pass".
In front of Jinling Pass, the fighting is going on!
I saw the poisonous cloud rolling, and countless figures rushing out, but they were all headless and broken bodies, with dark green bodies, strangely long arms, and pustules on their bodies.
There were monks who had already rushed out of Jinling Pass and fought against these headless monsters. Various magic weapons and magical powers emerged in an endless stream, repelling the waves of attacks.
Liang Yan saw this scene from a distance, and couldn't help but feel moved in his heart, thinking to himself: "He is indeed a poisonous person!"
It turns out that this is not the first time we have seen these headless monsters. We had fought against each other in Juntian City back then, but the ones that appeared that time were red poisonous people, whose rank was much higher than the dark green poisonous people.
The combat power of this kind of poisonous man is average, but the victory is in large numbers. The monks guarding the city in front of Jinlingguan have just killed hundreds of them. The poisonous cloud is rolling behind them, and a thousand more appear in just a moment. They can't kill them all!
"It seems to be a sneak attack by the Bei Ming Army."
Before Liang Yan could ask, Fang Duhai explained outside the Luan chariot: "Nan Xuan and Bei Ming were confronting each other in Huntian Ridge. Both sides had set up large formations, and every city gate was a hub. In addition to frontal fighting, there were also
There are often such sneak attacks, but such sneak attacks are difficult to win. Reinforcements from nearby will arrive soon, so it is usually a test to see where the opponent's main force is."
"That's it." Liang Yan nodded, his face noncommittal.
In the battlefield below, the shouts of death shook the sky, and endless poisonous people came like a tide. However, they were blocked by more than 3,000 monks outside the city gate, creating a stalemate.
In the poisonous mist that fills the sky, there are all kinds of precious lights and supernatural powers, killing people with venom flying everywhere and dripping with blood.
There is a sword light in the middle that is particularly brilliant. It looks like a green dragon. The sword energy roars and flies up and down. Every time it rolls into the battle formation, dozens of poisonous people are killed, leaving no bones and turning into ashes.
"It's really amazing!" When Nan Youyue, Hongyun and others saw this scene, they couldn't help but nodded slightly and praised.
Liang Yan in the carriage smiled and said nothing.
This sword light was all too familiar to him, it was the "Green Chi Sword"!
I saw a beautiful figure in the crowd, wearing a blue Taoist robe, with her hair tied high back, and a red lotus between her eyebrows. She was dancing with a sword in the poisonous tide. Who else could it be if it wasn't Li Xiran?
This is Liang Yan's second disciple, and she is also the daughter of the lord of White Jade City. The two have a very good relationship.
When he left Wushuang City and went to the Suixu Mountain for the appointment, Li Xiran was already in the late stage of Jindan. Now, he has not seen her for more than 150 years. This woman has also successfully broken through the bottleneck and reached the early stage of Tongxuan.
Although she was in the early stage of Tongxuan, she was taught the secrets of swordsmanship by Liang Yan. After more than a hundred years of tempering, she finally refined the Gang into pills. Her magical power was far beyond that of ordinary Tongxuan Zhenjun.
"Not bad." Liang Yan's eyes showed a hint of relief.
In addition to Li Xiran, there are many acquaintances under the city wall.
One of them, with a square face and purple clothes, offered a gold mountain as a sacrifice. The poisonous people around him kept attacking, but they could not break his defense. The other person, with a dog's head and a body, held three long knives. He only attacked but not defended. He cooperated with the man in purple and killed him.
The poisonous people were surrounded by corpses all over the place.
"Fang Li and Buwen are also here."
Liang Yan smiled slightly, but these two people were familiar with each other. When he was still in Nanchui, these two people joined forces to fight against the Nine Nether Alliance and destroyed the Nine Nether Alliance's plan.
Back then, they were at the pinnacle of the Golden Core, dominating the world in the south, chatting, laughing and killing people, but they were stuck in this realm for many years. Looking back after hundreds of years, they finally broke through and killed Zhenjun Tongxuan.
"Sect Master, do you want to send someone over to help?" Nan Youyue asked in a low voice beside the car.
"Not urgent."
Liang Yan smiled and had no intention of going down to help.
It turned out that he had already seen that although these poisonous people were huge in number, they would not be able to do anything to the monks at Jinling Pass for a while. In fact, the reason why they came out to kill the enemy was mostly for training. Otherwise, they would just stay behind closed doors and use the city wall to restrict them.
As a cover, these poisonous people are here to die.
This can be seen from the fact that Jinlingguan only sent seven True Lords of Tongxuan to lead the troops, and none of the ancestors of Huajie showed up. I am afraid that these True Lords of Tongxuan came out to practice and accumulate military exploits.
"Li Xiran's swordsmanship is much more sophisticated than before. It should be the result of her experience during this period. I don't have to rush to take action. It's better to let her take this opportunity to practice." Liang Yan thought to himself.
In front of Jinling Pass, the two sides fought fiercely.
Although there are many poisonous people, their attack is haphazard. There are only three thousand monks in Jinling Pass. However, under the leadership of seven Tongxuan Zhenjun, they advance and retreat in a controlled manner. The formation has not been chaotic until now, so there are very few casualties.
At this moment, a strange laughter suddenly came from the poisonous cloud, and then the void split open, and a piece of silk flew out, covering the sky above the battlefield.
The silk was very strange. It was originally blank, but after absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy in mid-air, it actually appeared one after another with evil eyes. As the eyes opened and closed, a monk on the battlefield burst into pieces and turned into blood.
fog!
"not good!"
Li Xiran was so aware that he hurriedly held down the light of his sword, and without looking at each other, he and Fang Liren led their troops and horses to retreat towards the gate of Jinlingguan.
"Hey, since you're here, you might as well become my blood food, why bother struggling?" Jie Jie's strange smile came from the poisonous cloud, and after a moment, the void opened, and a big withered hand stretched out from it, grabbing the people in front of the city gate.
"Monsters should stop being so arrogant!"
There was a loud shout in Jinling Pass, and two escaping lights appeared at the same time.
One of them stepped on the lotus, and the whole city was filled with fragrance. He was Xia Zhirong, the master of Linglong Palace! The other one was wearing a nine-gong Taoist robe and carrying a mahogany sword. He looked a little old and unruly, but he was Feng Xuanzi of Yunjin Palace.
.
Facing this big withered hand, the two of them took action almost at the same time.
I saw Xia Zhirong pinching her magic skills quickly, and countless petals flew out around her, condensing a big hand of hundreds of flowers in mid-air, and faced the monk hiding in the poisonous cloud. Feng Xuanzi took the opportunity to use the "Qiankun One Qi Hand" to shuttle through the void.
, to catch the real body in the poisonous cloud.
"The pearls of rice also emit brilliance?"
Amidst the laughter, the withered big hand suddenly emitted green light, poking thousands of holes into Xia Zhirong's flower palm, and then a huge force surged in. There was an explosion of "Bang!", the flowers withered, and the magical power dissipated.
"Well"
Xia Zhirong snorted and took two steps back involuntarily, obviously suffering a secret loss.
At the same time, another golden diamond shot out of the poisonous cloud at a strange angle and at an extremely fast speed. It suddenly penetrated the "Qiankun Yiqi Hand" and suddenly shrunk hundreds of times like a deflated ball!
"ah!"
Feng Xuanzi screamed and hurriedly withdrew his arm from the void. His palm returned to its original size, but there was a blackened hole in the palm of his hand, and black blood surged like a stream!
"Cruciatus, a poisonous magic weapon!"
Feng Xuanzi's face was gloomy, and his Taoist mystical skills were running, using all his strength to force out the poisonous blood from his body.
"Hahaha, are you two the only ones guarding Jinling Pass? It seems that I can break through it today and destroy a hub for Beiming!"
Amidst the laughter, three escaping lights appeared from the poisonous cloud at the same time.
The leader was a gray-haired old man, followed by a man and a woman. The man was handsome and the woman was charming. They walked side by side and looked like a Taoist couple.
"Tang Ji in Huangyunge, Bai Feng in Liangyi City, Lan Xiangying!"
Both parties were acquaintances, and Feng Xuanzi recognized the other party's identity at a glance.
"It's difficult to handle." Feng Xuanzi frowned and secretly said: "It's easy to deal with Bai Feng and Lan Xiangying, but Tang Ji is a master. Even if we join forces, we may not have an advantage. Now with two pairs
Three, how can we have any chance of winning?"
Xia Zhirong was still calm, with a calm face, and secretly transmitted a message: "This is not the first time Jinling Pass has encountered this kind of danger. We don't have to fight hard. We only need to stop the old thief Tang Ji and send the following juniors into the city.
Just stay in seclusion and wait for help."
"That makes sense!"
Feng Xuanzi nodded slightly, then raised his hand and patted the door. Three rays of rays of light appeared behind his head, divided into three colors: green, gold, and silver. They were his "three rays of divine light"!
