Chapter 68: Cruelty
Hiiragi Castle is 5,500 miles away from Shangling City. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The sky above the city was covered with dark clouds and was very depressing. The people of the city had long since dispersed, and only the soldiers of the river were coming and going.
The distant mountains are slightly dark, there are blue birds chirping, purple light is rolling wildly, and the atmosphere is solemn to the extreme.
Qi Zhen stood at the head of the city, wrapped in silver-white battle armor, his body was long, his eyes stared into the distance, and his eyes were full of melancholy.
It's been three days since I came here, and Dongchen's army is outside, eyeing it.
The gap between Nanguo and Dongchen is not big, but in terms of top cultivators, it is not as good as Dongchen. And the top cultivators are the key to deciding a war.
In many cases, a battle that could not be fought with the lives of countless soldiers only required a spell from a high-ranking monk. This is an absolute kill, so when the two countries are at war, there will be a confrontation between the cultivators of both sides.
Qi Zhen's predecessor, a general who had been immersed in the army for many years, once took him with him, died here, and Qi Zhen was urgently transferred.
Qi Zhen exhaled a breath of white air, this place is not like Shangling City, it is very cold here, so cold that people's hearts and livers are trembling. The slightly cold air rushed towards Qi Zhen, wanting to squeeze into his body and freeze his hot blood.
The wails of the wounded soldiers in the city kept coming, Qi Zhen closed his eyes, his handsome face was a little hideous, and the silver-white armor seemed to be glowing with blood.
The casualties were so serious, so serious that even Qi Zhen, who had been in battle for a long time, couldn't bear it and didn't dare to look at it.
"Report! The enemy had been standing at the col fifty miles ahead for three days, and we had never been able to find out what they were doing! Behind him, a spy was half-kneeling to report the military situation.
"What the hell are they trying to do? Obviously, they had the ability to take Hiiragi City a few days ago, but they didn't do it, what are they plotting? The one who spoke was a woman, wrapped in black and delicate, but on the left side of her face, there was a shocking wound, like the hand of hell caressing her.
Her name is Xin Qiannan, and she is the only third realm cultivator in Hiiragi City at this moment.
Qi Zhen turned sideways, his face was soft, pinched Xin Qiannan's face, and said, "Prepare a team of twenty people, I'll take a look." ”
"No way!" Xin Qiannan frowned, "You're the boss!" I'll go! ”
With that, she went down to the city without the slightest hesitation.
Qi Zhen shook his head, knowing that there was no way to stop her, standing on the city wall, watching Xin Qiannan go with a team of men and horses, and stabbed into the gloomy front.
Now there are less than 10,000 soldiers in the city, and the other side has at least five times the number of troops. But they kept moving, which made Qi Zhen very confused and didn't know what the other party was paying attention to.
Qi Zhen really wanted to lead his troops out to attack and kill the other party, but he knew that it was impossible.
This is not a simple era of cold weapons, this is a war with the participation of cultivators, and many times, apart from hand-to-hand combat, it is difficult to have any intrigues and tricks, because it is too easy for cultivators to discover.
As night fell, Qi Zhen had been standing at the head of the city, his brows furrowing more and more.
Suddenly, his tense face finally relaxed, Xin Qiannan came back, and she was the only one who came back.
"It's still four or five miles away from their camp, but there's a strong smell of blood everywhere, and it's very infiltrating." Xin Qiannan had a few more wounds on her body, but she didn't care about it, and told her what she had detected as soon as possible.
Qi Zhen carefully wiped Xin Qiannan's cheeks, listening to her words, and chuckled in his heart.
"That's not right! Problematic! Qi Zhen stood up and saw that there was an old crow hovering in the sky above the other party's location, and there seemed to be a blood ray locked underneath, difficult to see.
"Are they refining some formation?" Xin Qiannan was skeptical.
"Quite possibly, someone is coming......"
Qi Zhen's pupils jumped, and just as he was about to speak, a monstrous blood light suddenly rose from the ground, and a shocking roar swept in an instant.
Thundered!
The earth trembled, and a huge blood arrow, a blood arrow entwined with endless souls, pierced through the entire Hiiragi City with a bang, heading straight for the depths of the southern country.
……
Above the main hall, everyone looked at Qi Le in amazement.
"Heavenly ...... Heavenly Departure Order...... How is this possible? How is this possible? Bu Juncheng was speechless, feeling his teeth fighting with his lips, his body trembled a little, and he shook his head fiercely, unable to believe what he was seeing.
The words that exuded divine light slowly rotated, and they all melted into a palm order, Qi Le held it, and saw that on the palm order, the word Tianli was written, and his heart moved, this should have been given to him by Si Kouyun, but this movement was ...... Let's make it a little too big.
"Is that really the Heavenly Departure Order? How is this possible? How could he be a mere son of the southern kingdom to get the Heavenly Separation Order, this is absolutely impossible!? ”
"This Tianli Order was issued by the Tianli Sect, a giant cultivator in the Tang Dynasty, and there are only ninety-nine of them every two years, facing the entire Hanging Sword, and it is issued to those absolute Tianjiao, who can directly participate in the Tianli Sect's Immortal Ascension Meeting, and do not need to participate in the primary election."
"The entire continent, with a population of 100 million trillions, only ninety-nine Heavenly Separation Orders? This ......" Everyone gasped, and their eyes suddenly changed when they looked at Qi Le.
Tianli Sect is not Shangling Academy, the two are not comparable, the most powerful Dean Sima of Shangling Academy is rumored to be only the peak cultivation of the third realm, and Tianli Sect ...... Just look at Si Kouyun.
And Si Kouyun is only one of the sword swords of the Tianli Sect, and he belongs to one of the nine swords of Tianli.
The reason why Sheng Tang was able to become the top of the pyramid of the Xiuzhen Kingdom in this world was that it was backed by the Tianli Sect and relied on its continuous output of cultivators, and the Sheng Tang Dynasty continued to consolidate and expand its territory.
The mind of the Tianli Sect is absolutely broad, as long as you have the strength and enough talent to be able to pass its Ascension Society, then no matter which country you are, even if you are an opponent, you can also worship the Tianli Sect to practice.
Bu Juncheng's face turned pale, and Qi Le, who had received the Tianli Order, was no longer the Qi Le he used to be. Being able to get the Tianli Order is enough to show that the Tianli Sect attaches great importance to Qi Le.
Qi Jin laughed heartily, and the loud laughter pierced the ears of Bu Juncheng and the others, and their faces were blue and red.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it seems that your vision is not good, other people's saints can see Qi Le's talent at a glance, why can't you?" Li Zongren sat on the seat, took a sip of tea, and was in a good mood.
Bu Juncheng and the others are not going to go at this moment, nor are they leaving, and at this embarrassing time, an urgent report suddenly came from outside the hall.
On the fifth day of the sixth month of the nineteenth year of Tianfu in the south, the Dongchen Empire sacrificed the blood array with the lives of 150,000 soldiers, and pushed all the way sideways, connecting the thirteen cities of the southern country, and penetrated the southern country for a thousand miles overnight, and the general Qi Zhen and his wife Xin Qiannan were martyred.
