Thick clouds rolled, and the sky thundered like rain.

Although Cang Yi lost the Thunder Mangzhu, and although he had only been able to get the Heavenly Thunder Seal for more than a month, he borrowed the Nine Yuan Returning Divine Array and merged with the Thirty or Forty Flame Crane Thunder Vulture Divine Souls that had cultivated into the Demon Pill......

At this moment, the green scale demon guards were fierce, and the rushing blood stirred up the heaven and earth vitality into chaos, but the body of the Cang's relics was one of the seven divine guard puppets inherited from the Liuyang Palace, and forcibly took Qin Chuan's immortal spirit blood and the true dragon saliva pill quenching body, and stepped into the heavenly realm, the strength is so strong that the human race powerhouses in the initial realm of the heavenly rank can be compared, and more than 30 Yanhe Thunder Vultures, who have comprehended the Nine Yuan Returning God Mantra in such a short period of time, can be said to be one of the four sects of the Northern Court, the Heavenly Crane Sect has raised the most intelligent handful of thousands of spirit birds, it can be said that the spirit yuan is majestic and pure, they formed a nine-yuan return to the god array, and joined forces with Cangyi, and thundered like a waterfall for a while, and immediately blasted dozens of demon soldiers who were rampage forward into charcoal!

The disciples of the Heavenly Crane Sect of the Dao Dan Realm also shot together at this time, dozens of miles apart, destroying the spirit sword magic weapon and strangling the winged demons who wanted to fly over the northern city wall and slaughter the city.

At this time, at the foot of the mountain, they were forced to shrink the formation, and began to condense the bloody formation to block the thunder, and more than a thousand winged demons did not rush to the city again, and then quickly retreated, searching on both wings of the north mountain, thinking of driving the scattered mortals in the mountains and fields outside the city, so that the witches in the army could reluctantly lay down the blood refining demon array and reduce the pressure of the frontal rush.

Although the demon soldiers were still slowly advancing, their speed slowed down - but no matter how slow the demon soldiers were, they could reach the city in less than thirty miles, and they could only reach the city in an hour.

At this time, the sky was close to dusk, and under the light of the setting sun, the whole city of Cangling City flashed with a strange light - according to the usual, it should be curling smoke at this time, and the city was prosperous, but at this moment, it was facing the disaster of overturning at any time.

Chen Hai hadn't had time to send someone to contact Qin Hushan and Wu Zhidong, but he could imagine that there must be a large group of Winged Demons, Demon Jiao, and Demon Owls gathered at the western foot of Murowei Mountain, and it would be difficult for ordinary scouts to infiltrate them.

However, they have only encountered this large-scale elite demon soldier all the way east, and at this time, it has been confirmed that Wu Zhen, one of the four middle and three realm demon lords of Xuanyin Valley, who has been killed from the gap in the Nine Plains, then it can be sure that Qin Hushan and they have not collapsed, and they have also blocked the three or four million demon soldiers on the eastern front, and they have not been able to let them out of the Murwei Mountain.

The pressure on Qin Hushan's side is already great enough, lacking war horses and spirit birds, and they can't move in quickly, Chen Hai can't expect Qin Hushan to transfer troops and horses from one or two thousand miles away to reinforce Cangling City at this time, and in fact, whether they can delay the pace of the main force of the demon soldiers fleeing west on the eastern front and buy time for the hundreds of millions of ordinary people in the Northern Court to retreat westward, the key still depends on the contest between him and Wu Zhen's demon soldiers.

If he could inflict heavy damage on Wu Zhen and make it difficult for the four or five hundred thousand demon soldiers attacking south from the gap in the Nine Plains to threaten Qin Hu Mountain's back route, then they would be able to take advantage of the steep terrain of Murowei Mountain and delay for a longer time—and the main force of the demon soldiers on the eastern front would have to be delayed for at least three or five months if they wanted to avoid Suolong Cheng and make a detour from other places into the eastern region of Beiting.

And these three to five months mean that they can evacuate an additional 3.5 billion ordinary people to the west of Zibai Mountain.

In addition to Zhou Wenwei, Chen Zhengqing and ten battalion captains, the other thirty-one disciples of the Heavenly Crane Sect who temporarily lost the spirit birds were temporarily organized into his guard battalion, and the remaining more than 900 elite birds were still divided into ten teams, led by Zhou Wenwei and Chen Zhengqing respectively, scattered on the two wings of the Beicheng Tower, keeping an eye on every move of the demon soldiers.

At this time, there is no protective array in the Fallen Tomb City, no matter how high and thick the city wall is, not to mention the great demon lord Wu Zhen, the existence of those few bottles of demon marquis, three or two times can collapse the city wall out of a gap, so it is not realistic to defend the city at all.

However, fortunately, the disciples of the Thousand Heavenly Crane Sect finally had some fighting spirit, and once the defenders in the city had collapsed, they also picked up their shield halberd armor one after another at this time, and gathered together on the north side of the city like a trickle;

At this time, there were two young people from the Spirit Clearing Realm, supporting a middle-aged man in the late stage of the Enlightenment Realm, and the sword flew precariously towards this side.

"Li Yongchang, the deacon of the Cangling Lake Daoist Academy of the Purple Void Sect, visited the true monarch, I don't know where the true monarch is practicing in the immortal mountain, but he was entrusted by my Purple Void Sect to teach the true monarch, and he specially came to rescue Cangling City?" The middle-aged man was seriously injured, his face was pale, and he was a little vain when he stood at the foot of the North City Tower, and just now he was just barely flying with the sword, looking at the demon soldiers who were slowly approaching outside the city, but he was not afraid, and said to Chen Hai.

"I am Chen Hai, the Marquis of Beiling, and I met with your Zong Xi Zhenren in Zibai Mountain, and agreed that the Beiling Army and the Seven Sects would jointly resist the demons, and I specially led an elite to come over, looking at the spread of the demon tribulation here, I didn't expect that there would already be such a powerful Great Demon Lord leading his troops to Cangling City. Chen Hai was dark about the situation in Cangling City, and wanted to organize the fifty or sixty thousand defenders who had fled from the main generals and military attaches in just one hour, which was almost an impossible task.

At this time, there were more than a dozen Xuan Cultivation disciples in the city who had opened the Spirit Realm, and they rushed to the North City Tower to meet Chen Hai.

Only then did Chen Hai know that Li Yongchang was the deacon elder of the Cangling Daoist Academy of the Purple Void Sect, and his status in Cangling City was quite high.

When Zhao Xuanming abandoned and fled to Jiuyuansai, Li Yongchang also served as the commander of the outpost camp of the defenders of Cangling City, and he was also the first person in the defenders of Cangling City to engage with the advance scouts of the demon clan.

The defense line of Jiuyuan Fortress collapsed, and the southern attack demon soldiers were so strong, the weak Cangling City could never be defended, and the generals of the defending army were not able to cultivate in the early stage, and when the large and small clans fled from Cangling City in a hurry, Li Yongchang also took his disciples to escort his family out of the city and fled south.

When the demon soldiers approached, the vast majority of the defending generals and clan Xuan Xiu finally chose to give up the clansmen who could not fly with the sword or the qi, and there was no spirit bird war horse to escape.

However, although Li Yongchang was seriously injured, he still took two disciples to sneak back to Cangling City with his two disciples afterwards, trying to find an opportunity to rescue his family.

As for the other more than ten spiritual realm cultivators, some of them were even disciples of the outer sect of the Heavenly Crane Sect, and they were mainly because they were reluctant to give up those family members who could not escape and stayed in Cangling City......

Although Li Yongchang is not the chief general of the defenders, he is the highest-ranking general of the defenders who are currently left in the city, and as the commander of the garrison outpost camp, he can still stay in the city at this time, although he does not have the delusion of saving the soldiers and civilians of the city, but his courage is admirable enough - almost half of the other dozen spirit realms are in the army, and they are all from a poor family like Li Yongchang, so that in the end, they don't even have the spirit bird war horses that escaped with their closest relatives.

Chen Hai believed that people like them could organize the maximum of 50,000 or 60,000 defenders in an hour, and after carrying the first wave of offensives, he would have to rely on people like Li Yongchang to constantly organize and send the brave men in the city who dared to fight and send them to the battlefield.

Chen Hai took out more than a dozen Heavenly Dao Spirit Extraction Pills from his arms and asked Li Yongchang to take them, and then left Li Yongchang alone, and let the others gather the scattered soldiers in the city to the north city as quickly as possible.

Compared with the Heavenly Dao Spirit Pill and the Spirit Pill that can restore the mana of the Spirit Yuan, there are two more words, but there is a difference between the clouds and the soil.

The pill recipe of the Heavenly Dao Spiritual Pill is almost the same as the ordinary Heavenly Spiritual Pill, that is, when refining a furnace of the Heavenly Spiritual Pill, a true dragon saliva pill will be added, and these dozens of people can survive this battle as long as they can survive this battle, the root bone can at least be upgraded by one level than before.

Chen Hai stayed alone in Li Yongchang and told him the truth: "We didn't come here just to save your families and children from escaping from the tiger's mouth, but also to hope that we would join forces with Qin Hushan, the head of the Yuanyang Sect, and Yu Cang, the Taishang Elder of the Yuanyang Sect, to support more time on the eastern front, so that the soldiers and civilians of Cangling and other cities could have the opportunity to retreat west- That is to say, we can only provide you with a glimmer of opportunity with our best efforts, and how many soldiers and civilians east of Cangling City can escape in the end, the most optimistic estimate may not exceed one in four, but it is this one-in-five chance, and you must fight for it with your life, and ...... fight."

Although Li Yongchang couldn't understand how strong Chen Hai's cultivation and strength were, as an inner disciple of the Purple Void Sect, he had served as a deacon in the county government and Taoist Academy for many years, and he had served as a general in the garrison, and his knowledge was far compared to that of ordinary people.

He knew that Chen Hai and the more than 1,000 of them were really not the opponents of the more than 10,000 demon soldiers outside the city, not to mention that the gap in Jiuyuan had been opened, and although the main force of the demon soldiers on the eastern front was blocked, a large number of flying demon species such as winged demons could still quickly cross the Murowei Mountain, and if the battle continued, the demon soldiers would only fight stronger and stronger.

Li Yongchang couldn't think of a way to deal with it, but he firmly faced Chen Hai's gaze and was determined to sacrifice his life to obey the dispatch.

"We may not have no chance to win, and the three million mortals may not have no way to live, but this opportunity, this way of life, must be taken from the sea of corpses and blood. Chen Hai sighed and called Zhou Wenwei, Chen Zhengqing, and the ten battalion schools over to explain the next battle arrangements.

The ten thousand green scale demon guards under the command of the Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen are too strong, and the existence of the demon marquis and the demon general-level is not less than their Dao Dan realm powerhouses, which means that once they are close to the demon soldiers, the more than 1,000 imperial bird disciples of the Heavenly Crane Sect will definitely not be able to support it for long, and they will be killed one after another, but they must guard the first line of the city wall, and they must not let the demon soldiers kill into the city.

Once the demon soldiers are allowed to enter the city, not to mention the witches under the Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen, they will have the opportunity to borrow the flesh and blood of the mortals in the city to set up a blood refining demon array, and the Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen will use the magic trick to absorb the essence of the flesh and blood of the mortals, and then kill the demon slash just now, how many casualties will they have on their side before they can bear it, and how many magic weapons can Chen Hai have in his hand to fight and consume?

The solution to the contradiction is to use those ordinary generals and the strength of the mortal people as meat shields, and constantly push forward with a steady stream of deaths and injuries, so that the disciples of the Heavenly Crane Sect can kill the demon soldiers and demon generals with swords or imperial weapons at a distance of three or five thousand steps, or organize a small-scale counterattack......

To put it bluntly, Chen Hai will use tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of mortal flesh and blood as shields in this battle, pulling out a safe distance between the disciples of the Heavenly Crane Sect and the demon soldiers and demon generals, not only to block the demon soldiers and demon generals from entering the city, but also to avoid hand-to-hand combat between the two sides.

In fact, the human race has been fighting against the demons for a long time, mainly such a tactic, but I didn't expect that the meat shield to be used in this way would be so weak.

"You spread the word, I will stay here in this battle and not take a step back, and all the generals who have been on the battlefield and can survive and return to Beiling with me can enter my Beiling Marquis Chen Hai to ......practice," Chen Hai said to Li Yongchang word by word.

Not to mention the ordinary people, even the elite generals who have the foundation of the Xuan Realm are really weak in front of those Blue Scale Demon Guards who can compete with the middle and late stage martial cultivators of the Spirit Clearing Realm, and Chen Hai has to give them some slim hope in order to inspire them to fight to the death one after another.

An hour passed quickly, and Chen Hai did not directly defend the North City Tower, but retreated to the empty space south of the North City Tower to form a formation.

The Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen's four-armed demon body, more than thirty meters high, holding the Demon Emperor Halberd and the Blood Bone Demon Knife, is in the array of demon soldiers, like a moving castle, every step falls, the earth trembles, and the purple scales all over the body exude a strange luster under the last afterglow of the sunset.

Wu Zhen's two wrong slashes, the nearly thirty-meter city wall, together with the North City Tower, cut a fifty or sixty-meter-wide gap, and the demon marquis in the demon array also took action one after another, and continued to open the gap, and finally formed a thousand-step square attack gap.

After destroying the North City Tower, the Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen was quite surprised to see that the miscellaneous soldiers in the city were organized so quickly, his hideous and ugly cyan face only twitched slightly, and he had no intention of retreating, waving the forward finger of the Blood Bone Demon Knife, and the Demon Soldier Demon General accelerated violently, crossing the gap and killing forward.

The speed of these miscellaneous soldiers was beyond its imagination, but the Great Demon Lord Wu really didn't believe that these miscellaneous soldiers, who were not much stronger than ants, could really withstand the rampage of the Green Scale Demon guards under him.

Only need to defeat these miscellaneous soldiers, if the Terran elite birds do not retreat, there is only a dead end to them in close combat, if the Terran elites want to distance themselves around Cangling City, they only need to control a certain number of mortals to be able to set up a blood refining demon array, not to mention Cangling City at that time, with Cangling City as the center, the mountains, lakes and rivers with a radius of four or five hundred miles are all within their attack range, and it is also worried about what these jumping clowns can do?

The Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen didn't know how strong the fighting intent of ordinary soldiers was after experiencing hellish despair, and being ignited by the flame of hope from the dead, and most people saw the demon soldiers and demon generals break in and devour the living with their own eyes, they had the courage to pick up the shield at this moment, and they had the consciousness in their hearts that they would rather die in battle than be devoured alive by these monsters 10,000 times better.

Yes, these generals can only be called miscellaneous soldiers, any green scale demon guard, wielding a mace, wielding a hammer weighing hundreds or even hundreds of pounds, can easily beat one or two people into meat sauce, Zhou Wenwei is in mid-air, and can even see that at the moment when the two sides are engaged, their own formation is like an avalanche that is constantly crushed by the demon soldiers, like a large piece of giant meat, constantly gnawed by the demon soldiers from the edge to the center, almost every breath, there are hundreds or even hundreds of people who are killed to the point of broken bones, The body was separated, or directly smashed into meat sauce, and even more than half of the people were directly shocked to death by the strong impact......

Zhou Wenwei and Chen Zhengqing also experienced a lot of hard battles in Jiuyuan, but none of them were so shocking.

However, even so, the generals who can only be called miscellaneous soldiers in the back are still like ants, and with the encouragement of Li Yongchang and others, they continue to fill in the gaps that have been killed by the demons and collapsed, like a blood grinder.

The defense line composed of ordinary generals did not collapse, and the speed at which the demon soldiers advanced forward was suddenly suppressed, and although the blood of the protective array condensed by tens of thousands of demon soldiers was powerful, it could not withstand the uninterrupted slashing of thousands of elite warriors and imperial weapons.

What's more, eight or nine hundred flame cranes and thunder vultures can all cast talent spells nearby, and the flame falling thunder and the spirit sword magic weapon are intertwined like wind and rain, and the blood of the protective array will be torn apart in three or five breaths.

More than 100 demon generals and eight demon marquis are all strong, and some elite demon schools stand up to withstand most of the attacks at this time, but the entire front line cannot move forward, cannot tear apart the flesh and blood defense line composed of tens of thousands of miscellaneous soldiers, and cannot fight with the elite disciples of the Heavenly Crane Sect in close combat, and the demon soldiers are always at a disadvantage in long-range attacks.

Xuan Xiu sacrificed the magic weapon of the Imperial Spirit Sword three or five thousand steps away, in the end, it was much more flexible than martial arts cultivation in close combat, on the one hand, he could concentrate to attack a demon, and on the other hand, he could avoid the attack of a strong demon and kill a weak demon......

In this way, every moment that passed, although hundreds of ordinary generals died, there were also more than ten or twenty green scale demon guards or winged demons who were killed by the spirit sword magic weapon or the flame falling thunder.

This kind of exchange ratio is definitely not what the Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen is willing to see, roared angrily, took the six-headed demon Jiao, and directly entered the front battle.

It didn't pay attention to the spirit sword magic weapons flying overhead, those who had their own demon generals and demons were responsible for resisting, even if there were ten spirit swords controlled by the eight-handled Terran Dao Dan Sword Cultivator who slipped through the net and killed it, and it was not a torrent composed of hundreds or thousands of spirit swords, how much of a threat could it be?

The top priority is to tear apart the defense line composed of Terran miscellaneous soldiers.

Chen Hai stared at the Great Demon Monarch Wu Zhen's figure like a giant tower, the Yuan Fetus in his eyebrows had already burst out, and hundreds of millions of purple gold rays bloomed out of his body, condensing into a ten-zhang giant sword in front of him, and at this moment, the sky roared......

The wind is howling, and the brilliance is surging.

After the start of the war, the vitality of heaven and earth was chaotic, the wind and earth were roaring, the sky was thundering wildly, and the Cangling Lake was also pouring heavy rain and churning waves, but at this moment, Cangling Lake gave people the feeling of coming to life, together with the spiritual veins that extended hundreds of miles under Cangling City, they resonated with the ten-zhang purple gold giant sword condensed in front of Chen Hai!

At this moment, seeing the place where Chen Li was standing, the green aura poured into the purple gold giant sword like a torrent, and in an extremely instant, the purple gold giant sword turned from virtual to real, condensing into a terrifying power unimaginable to the Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen!

"Heaven and Earth, Mountains and Rivers Sword!You are Chen Hai, the disciple of the Golden Sword Immortal Jiang Yin!"

The Great Demon Monarch Wu Zhen finally recognized Chen Hai at this moment, but he didn't expect that Chen Hai, who had only stepped into the Heavenly Realm on the banks of the Taoyuan River thirty or forty days ago, already possessed a physical body that could theoretically only be possessed by the Third Heavenly Realm, let alone that Chen Hai could control such a terrifying power.

You must know that the strongest attack that any Xuan Xiu can kill is related to his own endurance limit.

For example, Cang Yi can release his whole body demon yuan in a very short time, and he may not even be able to catch a few strong attacks of the Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen, but the consequence is that his yuan fetus and the knots of his whole body will not be able to withstand the terrifying backlash and will be completely destroyed.

The Heaven and Earth Mountains and Rivers Sword that Chen Hai had comprehended could be said to be one of the most domineering Xuangong True Methods in the Xingheng Domain so far, and when it was powerful, the backlash was also extremely terrifying.

When Chen Hai was in the Dao Fetal Realm, he slashed out a sword at random with the sword intent of heaven, earth, mountains and rivers, which would consume almost half of his spirit yuan mana, and it would also make his knots unable to withstand the backlash and suffer heavy damage.

Therefore, Chen Hai could not easily use the Heaven and Earth Mountains and Rivers Sword until he had no choice but to do so.

And once he used the Heaven and Earth Mountains and Rivers Sword, Chen Hai had to immediately separate the victory from the strong enemy, because he had no combat power to speak of in the future—this was the case with the killing of the Yue Demon Lord in Xinyan City.

The ten-zhang purple gold giant sword was still condensing the earth's leyline aura, which made the Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen feel dumbfounded, it could clearly sense the terrifying power condensed by the ten-zhang purple gold giant sword, and even exceeded the limit of what it could control, but at this time, Chen Hai seemed to be quite at ease.

Even if Jiang Yin's disciples have the secret method inheritance of Liuyang Palace, they don't know that taking the elixir that has been passed down from Liuyang Palace since ancient times is by no means comparable to ordinary Terran sect disciples, so they can step into the physical realm in one fell swoop, but they should also be able to control such a terrifying power without being counterattacked.

The Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen didn't know that Chen Hai dragged the Great Demon Lord Wu Xuan, who turned into a flesh and blood beast, into the thunder tribulation, and the power of the first and second waves of thunder tribulation increased by thirty or forty times.

Stepping into the third realm of the Heavenly Rank is only one of the benefits.

Another advantage is that Chen Hai's physical body itself has a strong foundation that can no longer be improved with true dragon saliva, and this time he has been most thoroughly tempered by the power of the Great Dao Origin.

To tell the truth, if the Great Demon Lord Wu really didn't absorb the essence of the flesh and blood of the mortals, and fought purely with his physical body in close quarters, Chen Hai relied on his physical body to not break his magical powers, and he would have the confidence to fight with it at this time.

Seeing the ten-zhang purple gold giant sword slashing, the four huge arms of the Great Demon Lord of Wu Zhen glowed with a faint black brilliance, like a thick fog, the Demon Emperor Halberd and the Blood Bone Demon Knife slashed each other, at that moment, Zhou Wenwei almost saw a flaw in the space wall, and a thin black storm slashed out like a magic blade, directly and neatly cut a nearby demon Jiao into two halves, and then disappeared.

At this moment, Zhou Wenwei felt how terrifying the consequences of Chen Hai and Wu Zhen Great Demon Lord's blow were.

Cang Yi laid a thunder net in front of Chen Hai, as if the thunder net was torn apart in an instant, Chen Hai was naturally not afraid of such an impact, and even released a protective Xuanguang in an instant, and more than 30 Heavenly Crane Sect guards behind Chen Hai also sacrificed more than 30 protective magic arrays, but there were dozens of generals on the outside, and they were directly crushed into meat sauce by the unimaginable terrifying impact......

Chen Hai spat out a mouthful of blood, but did not hesitate to condense the Ten Zhangs Purple Gold Giant Sword again.

The Great Demon Monarch Wu Zhen looked down and glanced at the demon body, it could withstand most of the attack power of the Ten Zhangs Purple Gold Giant Sword, but the scattered sword qi on its body was torn open by more than a dozen terrifying wounds - such an injury was not counted for the Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen, who was so strong in self-healing ability that he almost had the magic power of not being damaged in the flesh, it just didn't expect that Jiang Yin's disciple could barely be equal to it.

Seeing that Chen Hai didn't give an inch, the Great Demon Lord Wu Zhen didn't want to die with him, so he could only choose to retreat, and at the same time, the demon soldiers and demon generals also slowly retreated, ending the first wave of strong attacks!
