After a long time, Xu Qing will look at the human defense line on the battlefield where he is.
A large golden net connecting heaven and earth cut across the battlefield like a giant screen.
Regardless of the sky or the earth, all the means of the Shenglan tribe are blocked by the golden net from the fourth line of defense of the human race.
This golden giant screen is so vast that it not only connects the sky and the earth up and down, but also extends to the left and right to an endless range.
If one has a pair of eyes that can see the entire boundary of Fenghai County, then one can see how large the area is. It connects the northern battlefield and also covers the entire border area between Fenghai County and the Shenglan Tribe.
And here, within the golden net, on the fourth line of defense gully opened by the human race early, countless defensive positions were built, and a large number of marching tents were spread here.
Countless human monks, each with a deep sense of fatigue on their bodies, are constantly building and maintaining it here.
Rows of war weapons, like sharp thorns, stood up endlessly on the edge of the ravine, pointing in the direction of the Shenglan tribe.
There are hundreds of thousands of them, and they are all shining now, causing the void in front of them to distort, and even space cracks appear, and there is a deafening roar that keeps echoing.
This is not an explosive sound, but a gathering sound.
Their bursts are not spells visible to the naked eye, but are specifically designed to counteract the power of musical notes formed by the black snow.
Once it is fully activated, the black snow of the Shenglan tribe can be lost to the greatest extent possible and melted in advance.
And this ubiquitous roar has become the norm on the front line.
In the giant golden screen, there are hundreds of Guixu sitting cross-legged. They are the controllers of the forbidden magic weapon. They will use the power of the taboo to form interference and targeted confrontation with the diamond-shaped magic weapon of the Shenglan tribe.
At the same time, it also has the task of marking the reapers and sending monks to kill them.
In addition, you can also see extremely tall war puppets on the ground.
These puppets bear the characteristics of the human race. Each one is like a mountain. They stand in formations everywhere. The driving of each one requires a large number of monks to work together, so the power is naturally impressive.
And the most thrilling thing is the nine huge imperial swords!
Nine huge swords that are as high as the sky and stand between heaven and earth.
While they exuded supreme majesty, they also erupted with thrilling intimidation. If you look carefully, you can see that these nine emperor swords are made up of countless emperor swords.
They can be used as a total deterrent, or they can be dispersed. They are the heavy spear of the human race in this war.
There is also a huge Taoist bell in the sky.
This bell is the moment when Fenghai County's Zhijian Palace was built, and was given by the Imperial Capital's Zhijian Headquarters.
It was originally hung in the Sword Holding Palace, but now it is placed on the battlefield, because it... is the treasure of the Sword Holding Palace in Fenghai County. It was originally the foundation power of the Sword Holding Palace along with the Prison Department.
Its effect is not only external, but also internal.
When the bell rings externally, it can kill in all directions, but internally it wakes up.
Looking from a distance, one can see that there are hundreds of thousands of bronze coffins surrounding this huge Taoist bell, with layers of seals painted on each coffin.
The person lying inside is not a dead person.
It's a living person!
There are men and women among them, old and young. They are the sword-raisers who have been specially prepared for war by the Sword-bearing Palace for too many years!
Most of them have lived in relative peace for a long time, so they have not cut off their swords when the oil is exhausted, so they petition to sleep with secret methods and integrate the Imperial Sword into their lives.
Just waiting for the moment of awakening to cut off the sword that links his life.
Others know that their cultivation has reached the end, so they are willing to sleep for Fenghai County and merge into life to raise their swords.
Each of them knows that the moment they wake up must be the most critical moment for Fenghai County.
Now, among the hundreds of thousands of coffins, 30% are empty.
The man holding the sword inside had been awakened in the previous battle, and without any hesitation, he struck out the last sword that his life had transformed into.
At this moment, after all this was reflected in Xu Qing's eyes, dozens of figures flew out of Fenghai County's fourth wave of defense line, heading straight for the army where Xu Qing and his party were.
It didn't take long for the visitor to approach, and the person in charge was the deputy palace master of the Sword Holding Palace.
He came here personally to greet me and made his attitude clear.
His tired expression was laced with excitement. This kind of mood swing was rare for an overhaul at his level.
Kong Xianglong was also in the crowd. He was injured and in a very depressed mood. He could only smile when he saw Xu Qing.
Seeing this scene, Xu Qing's heart sank, and he had a bad feeling.
But this was not the time to inquire. The Deputy Palace Master of the Sword Holding Palace quickly approached and his voice echoed.
"Brother Mingyi, brother Gongze!"
The sword-wielding elders from Yinghuangzhou and Quzhaozhou also walked out quickly and bowed to the deputy palace master.
"You came in time, very timely!" The deputy palace master took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and spoke immediately.
"The palace master has an order!"
"All Guixu and the heads of various sects in Qu Zhaozhou and Yinghuangzhou will go to the big tent immediately. The palace master will summon them!"
"The rest of the group will camp on the spot and wait for the next step."
"please!"
The deputy palace master bowed to the two states' human race with clasped fists, and then his eyes fell on Xu Qing, with a strange light and deep appreciation on his expression.
"Xu Shuling, you also come with me."
Xu Qing solemnly said yes.
The group of people wasted no time and immediately left with the deputy palace master.
Before leaving, Xu Qing looked back at the captain.
The captain has now grown to the size of a seven or eight-year-old child. Standing next to a spiritual treasure deacon in the sword-holding court, he looks like a boy.
After noticing Xu Qing's gaze, he waved to Xu Qing and signaled to come to Xu Qing later.
Xu Qing nodded, quickly followed the others, and soon arrived at Fenghai County's defense line.
As Xu Qing walked into this place, he saw countless injured human monks.
The soldiers on the front line were obviously aware of the arrival of reinforcements from the two states, so almost the moment Xu Qing and his party entered the defense area, countless human monks walked out of their tents, looking at Xu Qing with excitement in their eyes.
et al.
There were disciples from various sects here, including casual cultivators and sword holders. Their injuries ranged from minor to serious, but when they saw them, they all bowed to Xu Qing and the others with clasped fists.
Since the war, their misery, their bitterness, and their exhaustion have become extremely intense, but there is still no despair, they are just eager to see hope.
At this moment, hope appears!
From the eyes of these human monks, Xu Qing felt their emotions, and as he continued to move forward, he saw more frontline warriors.
At first, some of these people were silent, some were cold, some were bitter, and some had red murderous intent in their eyes, but after noticing them, they all turned into excitement and excitement.
There are also some who are the sword bearers of the Sword Holding Palace, including Chen Tinghao and his Taoist couple.
Their injuries were serious. After seeing Xu Qing, Chen Tinghao smiled. His Taoist companion was gently bandaging his wounds. After noticing Xu Qing, he smiled slightly.
But no words came out of their mouths, because the closer they got to the defense line, the roaring here became louder and louder. The sound wave power from the countless sharp thorn magic weapons filled all directions and was deafening.
Xu Qing nodded. He felt a little relieved when he saw that although Chen Tinghao was seriously injured, he was still recovering.
Xu Qing had a good impression of these two men because when he first came to the county capital, they not only enthusiastically informed him of a lot of information, but also stood up for him in Silu Palace.
So Xu Qing looked at it a few more times before looking away.
As they moved forward, the group of them, led by the deputy palace master, soon arrived at the handsome tent located on the edge of the ravine.
This is the frontline headquarters.
While hundreds of personal guards were guarding the place, there were also civilian sword-holders waiting solemnly. Whenever a decree came from the commander's tent, they would immediately obey the order, arrange records and supervise the execution.
"Let the Seventh Army go to the front line immediately and keep an eye on any changes in the Shenglan tribe's behavior!"
"Arrange the Ninth Army to break it into parts, try to enter the battlefield area, and collect data on the changes in the black snow!"
"Let the Prison Department arrange a team to go out and kill the black-clad guards who sneaked into the rear. The construction of the fifth line of defense must not be destroyed!"
The serious voice of the palace master in the handsome tent was heard continuously. After receiving the order, everyone outside the tent immediately began to execute it.
With scrutiny in his eyes, Xu Qing instinctively scanned these civilian sword holders.
The civilian sword holders here also noticed Xu Qing. They were stunned for a moment, and then their eyes showed respect. When they received the decree to carry out the decree, they would bend slightly towards Xu Qing when they passed by him.
Due to their status, responsibilities, and efficiency, they do not need to do this in most areas on the front line.
But when facing Xu Qing, this must be the case.
Because they were all members of the Shuling Division, they were the first batch of subordinates recruited by Xu Qing after he established the Shuling Division during the preparations for the war.
Although Xu Qing did not come to the battlefield at the beginning, most of the people he sent to the commander's office were with the army.
Xu Qing nodded slightly and signaled them to go to work quickly. After these Shuling Division disciples left one after another, the deputy palace master quickly stepped forward and spoke respectfully outside the tent.
"Palace Master, all Guixu from Yinghuang Province and Quzhao Province, as well as their respective responsible persons, have arrived."
"Come in!" The palace master's majestic voice came from the big tent.
There was a crowd of people outside the tent, all with solemn expressions, walking towards the tent and entering one after another.
Soon, apart from the personal guards guarding the place, only Xu Qing, Kong Xianglong and others were left outside the big tent.
While waiting, Xu Qing looked at Kong Xianglong, who looked haggard and somewhat absent-minded.
"Brother Kong, what happened?" Xu Qing asked softly.
"Ye Ling... is dead." Kong Xianglong spoke in a low voice, with sadness and bitterness in his voice, and his haggard face lost its luster.
Xu Qing was shocked, he knew that Ye Ling liked Kong Xianglong.
"Before she died, she told me that she liked me..."
Kong Xianglong's body was trembling a little, and he grabbed Xu Qing's shoulders. His eyes were red and his hands were trembling.
"Xu Qing, I feel so uncomfortable."
Kong Xianglong said, his eyes became redder, and finally he closed his eyes.
Xu Qing remained silent and let Kong Xianglong hold his shoulders.
He has experienced separation between life and death more than once, so he can understand this feeling. It is an unreal feeling that cannot be used to or get used to.
All he could do was stand beside Kong Xianglong and hand him a bottle of wine when Kong Xianglong was trembling.
Kong Xianglong took the wine bottle, took a big sip, and murmured.
"It turns out that wine sometimes loses its taste."
Kong Xianglong released his grip on Xu Qing's shoulder, patted her gently, turned around and left.
He came here because he felt depressed. He heard that Xu Qing was coming, so he came to take a look.
Xu Qing was silent.
The scene when he saw Ye Ling for the first time in the Sword Holding Palace appeared before his eyes.
The girl who ate flesh and blood melon seeds, the girl who told him that he could go to the Taixu Demon Transformation Sect to learn the art of demon transformation, the girl who only had Kong Xianglong in her eyes and heart at all times.
For a long time, Xu Qing sighed softly.
"This world is a cannibal." Xu Qing murmured, with mixed emotions.
After a while, as Guixu walked out of the tent one after another, and when Xue Lianzi and the two great elders of the sword-holding court were ordered to leave one after another, the palace master's voice came from the tent.
"Xu Qing, come in."
Xu Qing cheered up, walked over, and stepped into the tent.
The moment he walked in, he saw the palace master sitting directly in front of him, and also saw a huge sand table formed by magic in the tent.
This sand table map outlines the entire western front line very completely. From the inside, you can see the Tianlan Mountains, which is only a part of this defense line.
Its undulating direction spreads across the entire west, connecting with the northern front line, and its scope is extremely large.
This is inevitable, after all, this is a large-scale war.
Although this place is only a part of the overall defense line, the Palace Master chose to have his headquarters here, so it is conceivable that this is the core of the defense line.
Xu Qing took a deep breath, looked away from the sand table, and looked at the palace master.
The palace master was obviously more haggard than before, his eyes were bloodshot, and his body was injured. The armor he wore for him was still on him, as if he had never taken it off.
The evil spirit is even stronger than before.
As he sat there at the moment, Xu Qing felt like a peerless ferocious beast, gathering the momentum of the entire army into one body, always choosing people to devour, making people instinctively tremble with fear.
"Greetings to the Palace Master." Xu Qing looked solemn and bowed with clasped fists.
"Xu Qing, I have received the supplies you sent before."
The palace master stared at Xu Qing, and the evil aura on his body seemed to want to be restrained, but the gathering luck of the army prevented him from easily dissipating the evil spirit, so he tried hard to make his expression gentler, with deep appreciation in his eyes.
.
"I also know the reason for the gathering of troops from the two states. This time, you have made a great contribution!"
Xu Qing lowered his head and spoke calmly.
"This is what you should do in your humble position. Besides, at Chaoxia Mountain, I..."
Xu Qing had just finished speaking, but before he could finish, the color of the sky outside suddenly changed, as if the stars were changing, and the earth was murderous. It trembled violently, as if a dragon and a snake were rising from the land.
There were even bursts of whistling sounds from the monks of the Shenglan tribe, and the heaven and earth reverberated.
The war broke out again after a short break!
Murderous intent was like a strong wind, blowing from the direction of the Tianlan Mountains and bombarding Fenghai County's taboo net.
The golden net trembled instantly, emitting a dazzling light.
The violent force contained in this wind swept across the gully defense line and roared past the tents of the Fenghai County human race, causing countless marching tents to shake violently.
It also landed outside the palace owner's big tent, blowing the tent cloth with a whisper, and the door cloth quickly lifted inward, revealing the sky filled with black clouds outside and countless lightnings streaking across the sky.
boom!
Loud noises were heard from the earth and sky at the same time.
Xu Qing's long hair rose with the wind, and her mind and hair were in sync, with violent waves.
The roaring sound is like the roar of countless giant beasts, surpassing the thunder of the sky on the battlefield, and resounding in all directions like a roaring bell.
The palace master's face was expressionless, but the evil aura on his body became even more intense at this moment. When the color of the world changed, he stood up, threw a jade slip to Xu Qing, and walked out of the tent.
"This jade slip contains some information on the Shenglan tribe's battlefield. Xu Qing, please step back and study it first. I will give you a day to familiarize yourself with the battlefield as soon as possible."
"This is just a regular battle, far from the level of a war. How to get familiar with it and how to measure it is up to you."
"Anyway, starting tomorrow, you will return to your duties and take over the responsibility of writing orders!"
After hearing the palace lord's words, Xu Qing immediately said yes.
The palace master nodded and walked out of the big tent. Outside the tent, all the disciples of the Shuling Division had returned and stood solemnly, waiting for the order to be delivered.
Xu Qing stood behind the palace master and looked at the battlefield in the distance. In addition to countless strange changes in the sky, he saw monks from the Shenglan clan roaring towards him like a sea between heaven and earth.
Some of these monks were flying in the sky, and some were galloping on the earth. They were all wearing armor and had strong murderous intent on their bodies.
And their lineup is centered on the giant severed hands that have been activated, divided into several formations, overwhelming,
Soon, decree after decree came out from the mouth of the palace master, and the human army of Fenghai County, like a ferocious beast awakening from a slumber, opened its eyes at this moment and began to fight back.
Xu Qing also clasped his fists and left at this moment. He knew very well that for him who had just arrived on the battlefield, he did not understand the rhythm of the war and the advantages and disadvantages of each legion.
The position of Shuling is not that simple and can be controlled casually. After all, in addition to passing orders, it is also necessary to monitor the degree of completion and analyze and summarize in advance.
This requires a detailed grasp of the details of the battlefield.
One day is actually not enough.
Even if the jade slips given by the palace master recorded information about the battlefield of the Shenglan tribe, it was still not enough.
Therefore, in order to familiarize himself with it as quickly as possible, he had to find a position with enough overlooking the battlefield to view the war at a macro level. At the same time, this position should also allow him to step directly onto the battlefield at all times and experience the details of both the human race and the Shenglan tribe in a microscopic way.
Although staying with the palace lord meets the first condition, the palace lord is in a core area and is not suitable for entering the battlefield immediately. Even if you want to go, you need to ask for permission, which is too passive.
So in the roaring of the world and the earth-shattering outbreak of war, Xu Qing looked in all directions, looking for a position that met the conditions, and finally his eyes fell on the huge mountains of abandoned puppets near the front line.
Each of Fenghai County's war puppets is driven by a large number of monks. They usually exist in formations arranged on the ground to keep them in peak condition at all times.
But more of them have been scrapped and cannot be repaired. They can only be piled together and used as accessories to repair other puppets, and can also be used as part of a bunker.
In addition, at critical moments, it can also be thrown out and exploded as a source of pollution.
Looking at the mountain formed by the accumulation of discarded puppets, Xu Qing quickly approached.
During the current battle, not many people were guarding the place. There was only a lame old man sitting there, looking at the battlefield with a numb expression.
Although Xu Qing's arrival attracted his attention, he just glanced at it blankly and ignored it.
Xu Qing didn't say much. After arriving, he jumped up, stepped on the scrapped objects, and reached the top directly.
Standing there, he took out the jade slip given by the palace master and looked at the battlefield while inspecting it.
This position is a relatively commanding height, allowing Xu Qing to see the entire battlefield more clearly.
Outside the golden net, the battlefield was roaring.
On the sky, the huge rhombus-shaped magic weapon from the Shenglan tribe continuously emitted a deafening buzzing sound, echoing in all directions. When the void was distorted, lightning bolts wandered inside, sometimes falling to the ground, roaring everything.
Even more coercion emanated from the blood-colored eyes of those diamond-shaped magic weapons, descending on the battlefield, blessing the monks of the Shenglan tribe, and at the same time forming an attack on the human army.
Through the jade slip, Xu Qing knew what this diamond-shaped magic weapon was. At this moment, what he looked at was that many human monks were covered in blood. Some of it came from the enemy, and the other part was the pollution reaction of their own heterogeneity and richness.
These diamond-shaped magic weapons from the Black Sky Clan are strangely powerful and frighten everyone.
But the human race also had a way to target it. As the golden net formed by the taboo in the county capital shone, Xu Qing saw that hundreds of powerful Guixu warriors who were sitting cross-legged and responsible for the operation of the formation seemed to have turned into source points, spreading out.
All cultivation levels are integrated into the golden net.
Suddenly, huge golden faces protruded from the golden net, roared silently, rushed out, and crashed towards the diamond-shaped magic weapon in the sky.
Under the loud noise from heaven and earth, those rhombus-shaped instruments were finally affected and began to check and balance each other.
But the black snow that filled the battlefield was pervasive and difficult to contain. It was falling continuously at this moment.
Sometimes they turned into a line of magic to bombard the human monks, and sometimes they gathered together in large groups, transformed into human and animal forms, and rushed into the army with roars.
Some of them fell in front of the monks of the Shenglan tribe and formed weapons, which were manipulated by their secrets and increased in power.
There was even more black snow falling on the human monks. Even though the monks from Fenghai County tried their best to avoid it, the black snow here was too dense and too dense.
The bodies of those monks who were infected instantly trembled, and the black snow turned into a poison, causing the heterogeneity in their bodies to directly exceed the critical point. For a moment, the sound of wailing and miserableness spread all over the place, and many of them were directly alienated and roared wildly.
There is no distinction between friend and foe.
Extremely tragic.
But the human race and the Shenglan tribe have been at war so far, so they naturally have ways to deal with it.
Soon, Xu Qing's mind was shaken, and a huge roar came from the gully of the defense line. Astonishing magic thorns rose up one after another, with their tips pointed at the battlefield. Under the deafening and astonishing sound, violent sound waves were emitted towards the battlefield.
Wherever this sound wave passed, the black snow between the sky and the earth quickly trembled and melted. It turned into black water and quickly evaporated before it hit the ground. Finally, it turned into black mist and was dispersed.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Fenghai County human race on the battlefield had time to breathe. The legions that went out to fight quickly retreated, and other legions that had been preparing for the battle for a long time quickly stepped forward.
