It’s November 20th, the 379th year of the Great Xuan Calendar.
Densely packed flying boats flew out of the Celestial City. In this war, 150,000 regular troops were dispatched in the Celestial City, all of which were the most elite armored soldiers. This army will be commanded by the general Luan Bing.
Hong Yuanqiu, the director of the department, sits at the rear and is responsible for overall planning and handling everything.
Although Tiancheng only had 50,000 troops left as a result, with Dai Xuanzun sitting behind and a large formation protecting it, it was still very stable. Only the Earth Star was slightly empty.
However, considering that Chentian will not give up so easily in this battle, and will definitely concentrate its efforts on defense, Kuisu is actually more stable than usual.
This time, under the main army, there are also garrisons, conscripts and mercenary troops recruited from various places. The total number is more than 500,000.
These armies will attack the Earth Stars that serve as formation aircraft from all directions, occupy or destroy these places, and create opportunities for the main army to attack the central formation hub.
In addition, the Military Affairs Administration also recruited a large number of monks from Kuisu and surrounding places to accompany the army. Among them, the number of middle-level monks reached more than a thousand, and the number of lower-level monks who accompanied them reached tens of thousands. Most of them were Xuanxiu.
Zhang Yu was currently standing in a very ordinary-looking flying boat. This was because his white boat was so conspicuous that any interested person would know it was his vehicle, so he used it to cover it up.
This time he was not in charge of military strategy, so he did not know the specific arrangements for the entire army.
But this military operation is actually relatively simple, because the target is right there and there is no way to avoid it. The distance looks far away, but it is only more than ten days away.
What they faced was not an army, but a loose group of monks. These people might have the advantage in small-scale battles, but once they formed a grand formation, they would be short-changed.
Since it was not yet time for the monk to show up, he did not pay too much attention to the outside world. Instead, he was thinking about Hong Yuanqiu and his method of harvesting the Three Treasures.
He had seen this thing before in the jade slip given by Xuan Ting. However, it was used as a negative example, saying that it was a method of doing things from below, because this method was completely borrowing from outside.
Even if you can achieve success by integrating the power you received into your own body, don't even think about how many magical powers you can have.
The "human treasure" is said to rely on essence, but in fact it is the same as sacrificing blood essence, and it is not an exaggeration to say it is an evil method.
But no matter how vicious this method is, if any monk succeeds through it, it will be Master Xuan, so he will definitely try to stop it.
At this moment, at the other end of the fleet, Liang Yi looked at the densely packed, seemingly endless airships outside the cabin. He felt endless emotions in his heart. With so many airships and so many armored sergeants, before a monk reaches a certain level, his personal power lies here.
The army is insignificant.
He sighed: "In Tianxia's future world, creation will be the mainstream."
"I disagree with what Fellow Daoist Liang said!"
Liang Yi looked back and saw a young Taoist standing there with eyes looking forward to the light. He said: "It turns out to be Taoist Friend Wu."
Wu Daoren came up and said: "These things are just for showing off their power in our generation. If they reach the upper realm, they can be wiped away with the wave of their hands. How can they be compared with Taoism?"
Liang Yi did not argue with him, but looked forward and said: "Friend Wu, you know, I originally wanted to discuss the law with you, but unfortunately I just missed this military recruitment."
Wu Daoren said: "It's a pity. We will discuss it after the war."
Liang Yi said: "Actually, if fellow Taoists don't object, then we can discuss the law now."
Taoist Wu raised his eyebrows and said: "Fellow Taoist Liang, I know you have been saying everywhere these days that the 'observer' is beneficial to my mystical cultivation. However, the way to practice lies in oneself. To play with these external objects is to miss the fundamental point."
.”
Liang Yi said: "What is the foundation? It's just the heart of the Dao. If the heart of the Dao is unwavering, how can we lose the foundation? Blindly resisting is just fear. It seems that this generation can't keep a righteous heart."
Wu Daoren was not angry at all, and said: "Right heart? Haha, it makes sense. Well, Fellow Daoist Liang, after this battle, I can agree to have a discussion with you, but what are the conditions..." He said slightly jokingly: "You
If I lose, I will use something else."
Liang Yi looked at him and said solemnly: "Okay!"
Since their departure, Kuisu's army has been advancing very smoothly. According to the military affairs administration's previous plan, they occupied the desolate stars with large formations one by one, destroyed the formations above, and finally surrounded them from all directions and surrounded the formation hub.
The Guo stars were surrounded by clusters of stars.
At this moment, there are only twelve days until the army is dispatched.
Coach Luan Bing looked at the earth star wrapped in white air outside the cabin.
This star is only about one-half the size of Kuisu, but even so, it is definitely not possible for ordinary people to push it in from outside Kuisu. It is most likely the hand of Xuan Zun's incarnation.
He sighed in his heart: "Shangjing monks really have unpredictable powers."
He knew very well that the previous Earth Stars were not so much captured by them as they were deliberately given up by the other side, but what they were facing now was the real hard nut to crack.
He said: "Prepare to release the mysterious weapons."
He gave the order, and the rapid light immediately passed through a messenger ship, from the center to the surrounding areas, and spread throughout the entire fleet in a short period of time.
About ten thousand fighting flying boats flew out from inside, their cannon muzzles all opened, aiming at the cloudy earth stars below.
As the next order came, bursts of brilliant light flashed from the muzzle, and more than ten thousand powerful mysterious weapons rushed towards the earth star!
Since there is no turbid tide in the outer layer, these mysterious soldiers are extremely stable. All the soldiers watched the crystal-colored rays of light streaking through the void like meteors, heading towards the target. However, the moment they encountered the clouds, they seemed to explode.
The grand fireworks exploded in advance one by one.
More than that, as if something had been touched, the clouds rolled outwards and quickly approached the flying boats.
Luan Bing had already known that things were not that simple. As soon as he saw the changes below, he immediately issued an order: "Retreat."
Although his order was issued promptly, more than ten airships still failed to escape and disappeared silently into the clouds and mist.
Luan Bing turned around, looked at an old Taoist standing there, and said, "Wen Taoist, what do you think?"
Taoist surnamed Wen looked at it for a moment and said in a plain tone: "General Luan, don't forget that those are just some clouds, but they are as solid as an iron wall under the movement of the array machine. You have to withstand enough collision force to get in."
In the array.
In my opinion, only a few flying boats can withstand this force. The best way is to select elite soldiers and monks with excellent skills to rush in and destroy the center of the formation. However, based on the information obtained previously, this move must also be done by the opponent.
Expected."
Luan Bing thought for a while, turned around, and said to the row of counselors standing behind him: "Let's discuss it."
The counselors discussed softly, and then someone came out and suggested: "General, since these formations cannot be broken with Xuanbing, then letting our soldiers rush in will only be a useless sacrifice. The efforts of the monks will be taken care of."
His opinion represents the majority of people. Most of the counselors believe that in a place full of changes in formations, it is more safe and appropriate to leave it to the monks rather than to the military.
This is not because they consider their own position, but they really think so.
The outer layer is different from the inner layer. The monks and military agencies often cooperate and can recognize each other's strengths and weaknesses.
Luan Bing looked at Taoist Wen again and said, "What do you think, Taoist Wen?"
Taoist surnamed Wen said: "If the general asks me, then my advice is to try to get more people to rush into it, because the more people inside, the more dispersed the formation will be, and the more opportunities to enter."
Luan Bing thought carefully and said: "Go and tell those Taoist cultivators. I hope they will come forward and lead the monks to destroy the formation hub below. I will also send 20,000 elite regular troops to accompany them. Also, tell Zhang
Call the patrol officer. I hope he can also help."
As the fleet's decision was issued, Zhang Yu quickly saw the messenger here. He nodded and said: "Go back and tell General Luan that I understand."
After sitting in silence for a moment, he stood up, held the long sword and walked out step by step.
The spaceship he was riding in moved slowly at this time, facing the Guo star. As the hatch opened, the white Earth star in the void appeared in front of his eyes.
The light on his body soared like fire, the sleeves of his cloak fluttered in the wind, and his face under the hood could not be seen clearly.
He leaned forward, and with a loud bang, he turned into a rainbow of light wrapped in jade mist and rushed downwards!
On the other side, Liang Yi was also speeding towards the white mist at this moment. He was the first to jump out of the airship after receiving the request from the military department, so he rushed to the front.
Behind him, there were tens of thousands of spiritual light flames, mixed with streaks of rainbow-like escaping light, like bright meteors streaking through the void.
Liang Yi looked at the clouds. He knew that under the agitation of the formation, no matter how strong his mental strength was, he could not withstand it, so he had to go through it as quickly as possible without giving the formation a chance to oppress him.
.
Seeing that the distance was getting closer and closer, he thought, and the visualization picture emerged, faintly wrapping himself. The next moment, he rushed up with him, and suddenly a big hole was opened in the clouds. Immediately, some monks also
Follow the passages he opened and rush in one by one.
As for the monks who broke through from other directions, they could only rely on their own strength. Some people made it through successfully like him, and some people did not make it safely.
It can be seen that due to lack of strength, many people were unable to penetrate the clouds and mist, but bumped into it. The powerful force immediately caused them to explode into a ball of blood mist, and their essence and blood were immediately collected by the formation.
Although some people took a trick at the beginning and followed the path opened by the comrades in front of them, their speed was not fast enough during the crossing. They were gradually trapped by the closing clouds and mist, and their speed became slower and slower, and then they were crushed to death.
Inside, all the essence, blood, and energy are absorbed.
When Zhang Yu saw this scene, his eyes flashed, and his speed suddenly increased. He jumped in front of the crowd, and his heart suddenly brightened. As he continued to increase his speed, it was as if there were more dazzling meteors in the void.
.
And as he rushed to the top of the layer of mist, a huge force also pressed up. The surface layer of clouds collapsed, and then an unprecedented huge hole appeared in front of everyone.
