Chapter Forty-Eight: Bite the Bullet
"Maybe they have a shortcut, and the retreat just now is just a pretense. Xu Yongyun thought for a long time and said in a deep voice.
When Shen Ye heard this, his forehead jumped, "These lowly children of the Zhang family dare to play such a trick, sooner or later they will be killed!"
They took great pains to set up a mirage at the turning point of the place where they had to pass, in order to annihilate the elite of the Zhang family who came to support in one fell swoop, in order to sprinkle a handful of salt on the wounds of the Zhang family who were still breathing.
But what I didn't expect was that the mirage array laid out had no effect, and people didn't get fooled at all and turned around and ran, originally thinking that it was a retreat and choosing to completely abandon the medicinal plantation, but I didn't expect it to be a shortcut to arrive first.
On the contrary, his side has become the party that has been fooled, and for the Xu and Shen families, who have always been used to being powerful and blessed over the years, the behavior of the Zhang family is simply a silent slap on their cheeks.
"We ...... Do you still want to go up......" One of the elders from the Xu family said in a low voice with an uncertain tone.
As soon as these words came out, Xu Yongyun glared at him fiercely, and said in a cold voice: "Nonsense! Could it be that we still have to retreat! Then what is the purpose of this operation? You will be responsible after you go back?"
Feeling the intense murderous intent emanating from the man's body, the elder's heart trembled in fright, and he closed his mouth firmly.
Shen Ye laughed a few times, the scimitar in his hand flickered in the sunlight, "If you dare to play us like this, you will break this city today!" Kill them all, cut off their heads and send them to Zhang's house." ”
These foundation-building monks looked at the fortress in front of them with cold eyes, and the mana in their bodies was galloping quickly like a wild horse on the loose.
Feeling that the elders led by him were ready to attack, the group of monks behind him had fierce expressions, staring at the Zhang family members on the city wall without squinting, and the magic weapon in their hands was gradually filled with terrifying might.
A gust of wind blew and rolled up the dead branches and leaves on the ground, revealing the meaning of slaughter.
A solemn look flashed in Zhang Shaotian's eyes, "It seems that I am going to do it." ”
Zhang Fengjiu, who was floating in mid-air, looked at the scene below and said softly: "It must be a fierce attack, otherwise it will be difficult to explain if you go back like this." ”
Many of the clansmen held their breath and prepared for battle, and as soon as the enemy broke through the defenses and approached, they would cast a spell attack and smash it through.
"Now that this situation has arrived, the remaining incense value can't help much, and I can only hope that the formation I laid back then can resist the enemy's attack. ”
Zhang Fengjiu thought in his heart.
As soon as he thought of how arrogant Xu and the Shen family were now, he couldn't help but get annoyed.
Back then, his cultivation reached the peak level of perfection in the later stage of foundation building, who dared to blatantly provoke in the entire Anyang County?
"Kill my people and rob my property, this revenge is bound to be avenged!" Zhang Fengjiu glared angrily at the Wuyang crowd in front of him, and said hatefully.
The killing intent brewed to the extreme, Shen Ye's eyes bloomed with cold light, he raised the scimitar in his hand high, and shouted angrily: "Kill me!"
Xu Yongyun also ordered the clansmen under his command to charge, and the crystal clear long sword waves flowed, rippling with strong mana fluctuations.
"Kill!"
The shouting of killing was earth-shattering, and the ground under his feet seemed to tremble.
Seeing that the enemy was attacking, Zhang Shaotian said solemnly: "The formation is up! Everyone is ready to attack!"
The children of the Zhang clan standing on the city wall had a grim expression, and they looked at the menacing enemy, and they were all secretly preparing.
Several clansmen who controlled the formation waved apricot yellow flags, and bubbling mana was injected into the formation one after another.
Rumble......
A violent tremor sounded in the hearts of everyone, and the bright and brilliant aura of the formation suddenly rose, blooming with a bright light like dawn, and for a while, even the sun hanging in the sky was eclipsed.
Seeing that the formation was activated, the enemies rushed away with a fierce momentum, urging the magic weapons in their hands to meet them.
In the several rising formations, there were strong terrifying fluctuations, and layers of hard light shields spread out violently, followed by countless energy spears rushing towards the enemy team.
Many people pinched and cast spells, and dozens of fiery fire snakes flew towards the formation quickly, and they carried a fierce wind and crashed headlong.
The light mask was extremely hard, and the fire snake bombardment on it only set off ripples, but not to show the appearance of shattering.
And the countless spears that flew out of it in a hurry whizzed incessantly, and thrust at the incoming enemy like a dense rain.
The face of the enemy who rushed to the front changed, and he hurriedly controlled the magic weapon to parry in embarrassment, and the spears condensed by countless points of light were extremely sharp, piercing the bodies of several monks in an instant.
There were some Qi cultivators who were proficient in the low-level thunder method, and they pinched the trick and instantly shot out a ball of dazzling thunder, colliding with those spears.
The sound of popping echoed in the air.
Shen Ye held the scimitar in his hand, and fiercely slashed out the spear that flew in, and then shouted angrily, and slashed away a four-zhang sword-like sword with his backhand.
The sword was surging, annihilating the Dao spear all the way, and directly hit the light mask.
Xu Yongyun's expression was cold, his body was as agile as the wind, he could still dodge with ease under the overwhelming spear, and from time to time he also picked up a sword and stabbed, and the attack of the formation had no effect on him.
The same is true of the other four early foundation monks.
"Ahhh......h
From time to time, there were screams from the crowd, and one of the strong men couldn't resist it, and was directly pierced by a spear, his eyes widened, and his body slowly fell to the ground.
Others were pierced through their heads by the oncoming spears while dodging an energy spear, and blood sprayed down, terrifying.
Corpses fell to the ground, scarlet blood dripping from the ground.
Shen Ye glared angrily, he swung out several swords, and slashed at the light mask one after another, and several other people also cast spells and smashed them all at once.
The sword light was swallowed, Xu Yongyuan's face was cold, he extinguished several attacking spears, and slashed his head, the brilliant sword Hua suddenly rose, and hit the light mask in an instant.
The sound of the explosion echoed in the air, mixed with the screams and wails of the family monks behind them.
After all, it was several foundation building monks who joined forces to attack, and the originally hard light mask began to blur, and even small cracks appeared everywhere.
"It looks like it's going to run out of water. Zhang Fengjiu said when he saw this.
At this time, Zhang Shaotian was like a general on the battlefield, his handsome face showed a solemn aura, he knew that the light mask would not last long under the joint attack of many foundation building monks.
His eyes were sharp, the mana in his body was flowing like a stream, and the folding fan in his hand was flowing with a layer of silver light, mixed with a few flashing rays of thunder and lightning.
Rumble......
Under the fierce attack of the enemy, the light mask gradually became like an eggshell full of cracks, and dense spell attacks bombarded it, faintly with a tendency to completely shatter.
Xu Yongyuan shouted, the long sword in his hand was as fast as the wind, and he flew straight away.
A bright sword light swam from the air, extremely dazzling, and the next moment it slammed into the light mask.
Bang!
The shattered mask was dealt with by the final blow, and the fragments dissipated into small pieces.
When the enemies saw that this layer of defense had finally been broken, they shouted fiercely to kill.
On the city wall, the hearts of several clansmen who controlled the formation sank, and they adjusted their mana to inject into other formations, and the apricot yellow flag in their hands pointed forward suddenly.
After the last wave of the countless energy spears was annihilated, rings of purple light shot out one after another, rushing away with a bitter strong wind, setting off bursts of tearing sounds.
Xu Yongyun's face was cold, and the long sword in his hand slashed out unpredictably.
The rings of purple light were extremely sharp, and when they collided with his long sword, they rang out with a sonorous sound.
Shen Ye's scimitar was uncertain, and the awe-inspiring sword intent rose everywhere, annihilating all these rapid rings of purple light.
Several foundation building monks took the lead, fiercely responding to the attack of this formation, but even so, there were still some purple light rings with a fierce wind, shooting towards the dense group of enemies.
Because the speed was too fast, there was no time to pinch the trick and cast the spell, these people could only fight in a hurry, and the magic weapon in their hands was shaken violently, and even the pace of movement was messy.
Puff puff......
Several Qi cultivators fell to the ground, blood gushing from their wounds, their hearts filled with despair.
As soon as a monk dispersed a ring of purple light, he heard a sharp whistle in his ears, his face changed greatly, and he turned around to block it.
The purple light ring was as thin as a cicada's feather, and in an instant, half of the man's head was cut off, and a mixture of red and white poured out, emitting a fishy smell.
Zhang Shaotian's eyes were cold, and the folding fan in his hand was a little far ahead.
Several blue thunderbolts struck at an elder who was in the early stage of foundation building with a terrifying force.
The man was dressed in a loose robe, with a good appearance, and held a whip two meters long.
This is a second-grade mid-level magic weapon, a curved leaf whip.
The whip he wielded was like a poisonous snake that devoured people, dancing violently and violently, scattering and destroying several rings of purple light.
At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the incoming thunder, and with an alarm, this person turned around and threw out a sharp curved leaf whip casually.
The long whip was infused with mana, and it was fiercely pumped at several blue thunderbolts.
Rumble!
Wisps of lightning splashed around, the man's face changed, his arm was numb and painful, and his sleeve robe was suddenly scorched by the remaining electricity.
"Damn!"
The man cursed and glared at the handsome man standing on the city wall.
