Chapter Eighty-Nine: Fame and Fortune?
In the 100th year of the Emperor's calendar, the month of the soldiers, April 2.
After the strange calm of yesterday, the month of the soldier finally ushered in the second day worthy of the name of the 'soldier'!
The morning of this day was still as flat as yesterday, and it was frightening, but by noon, the major forces had received the expected but slightly surprising news through their own channels:
Early this morning, the Soldier Academy Palace fought a bloody battle with the Ruthless Dao in the Daicheng on the border of Yan and Zhao!
As time passed, more detailed battle reports were placed on the desks of the top brass of the major powers:
The Zhao State Righteous Dao Alliance, which is mainly composed of disciples of the Military Academy, supplemented by the disciples of the Wangwu Sect and the Wutai Sect, and the Demon Gate Coalition Army, which is mainly composed of Ruthless Dao disciples and supplemented by the Taibai Sword Sect and the Desire Demon Dao disciples, began to fight to the death in Daicheng early this morning!
It is said that at that time, the great masters of the Faxiang Realm on both sides had a tacit understanding and did not make a move, but sat and watched the disciples fight.
This battle began at dawn and lasted for two hours, until both sides used up the elixir talismans, squeezed out the last trace of internal force before retreating, it is said that after the battle, the scene was a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and the blood flowed like a river around the broken city wall, and only the broken walls were left in the entire city, and the city no longer existed.
According to statistics, after this battle, one of the strong grandmasters on both sides did not die, but several people were seriously injured.
And the martial artists who practice the Qi Realm and the Xuan Xiu who are in the foundation building period, it is said that the proportion of casualties on both sides is half, and the number of dead and injured is a total of thousands!
In this battle between Zhao Guozhengdao and some Yan Kingdom Demon Sects, which broke out suddenly in Daicheng, there was no winner in the end, and both sides lost in the end!
And this battle with nearly 1,000 casualties was the largest number of casualties in the conflict between the two realms since the Terran issued the Righteous Demon Alliance Order in the 52nd year of the Human Emperor, and this number was more than double the number of people who died in the conflict on both sides in the forty-eight years before that!
Subsequently, the main initiators of this local decisive battle, the Bingjia Xuegong and the Ruthless Dao, obviously realized that if the two sides continued to fight so hard, the final result would be unbearable for both sides, and when it was close to evening, the two sides actually issued a statement at the same time, announcing a one-month truce between the two sides, and invited the high-level leaders of the two sides of the Righteous Path and the Demon Dao to hold another collective high-level meeting on the original site of the Daicheng 20 days later.
With the news of this, the disciples of the Bingjia Academy Palace who remained in the capital of the Six Kingdoms immediately presented the invitation letters written in the name of the current sacrificial wine of the Bingjia Academy Palace, 'Thunder Spirit Dementor' Su Shot, to the high-ranking leaders of the major forces.
For a time, the situation in the world was turbulent......
............
In the lush forest,
"Linzi City is in front, let's take a rest here. After the silver light flashed, Yan Shuangdao, who was revealing his figure, stared at the majestic giant city looming in front of him, and groaned slightly.
"Master, aren't we going into the city?" Xiao Mo's eyes flashed with a hint of doubt.
"Confucianism, I am only familiar with Lao Xun, and I don't deal well with the current Confucian sacrificial wine," Yan Shuangdao shook his head slightly, "The stakes are very high, my current strength is not in its heyday, if there is really an accident, only relying on the 'soldier and god speed', may not be able to leave safely under the suppression of the Confucian palace weapon." ”
"What is the palace vessel of the Confucian Academy, so powerful?" Xiao Mo nodded, and then looked curious.
"The name of the Confucianism Palace is 'Shengwang Xi', which is known as the 'Sacred King's Seal', which is known to be able to suppress all things, and its own level is at least a high-grade spiritual weapon, which can suppress any treasure of the upper grade and below, including the 'Soldier Guishen Speed' that should barely be regarded as a high-grade spiritual weapon in your hand. ’”
"I see," Xiao Mo nodded, "I don't know what will happen to this 'Saint King Seal' when he meets Brother Ding." ”
Thinking of Brother Ding, Xiao Mo, who had relaxed at this time because he had gotten rid of the pursuit, suddenly moved in his heart, "By the way, Master, my spirit weapon was seriously damaged in the battle with the Dark Emperor before, I wonder if Master knows where the 'Soul Nourishing Wood Marrow' is for sale?"
"The 'soul-nourishing wood marrow' that makes Xuan Xiu rush to it? Yan Shuangdao raised his eyebrows, "I don't have it in the 'Ink Dao Gate', but there are a lot of Xuan Xiu in the 'Taimur School' in South Korea that are side by side with my 'Ink Dao Gate', maybe someone will prepare this thing for themselves," Yan Shuangdao paused, "And then there are the two major sects of Chu led by Xuandao monks, 'Heavenly Master Dao' and 'Yunmeng Dao', there may be this thing hidden in the door, and I will repair a book after I go back, and ask the old friends of 'Yunmeng Dao'." ”
"Thank you, Master!" Xiao Mo was overjoyed in his heart, "I see that there are a lot of good things in the Dark Emperor's storage bag, and I think it should be worth the value of the 'Soul Nourishing Wood Marrow'." ”
"Silly apprentice, if you kill the Dark Emperor, you only need to hand over your puppet to any royal family in the Six Kingdoms, and you can set up a 'Demon Slaying Prince' according to the 'Demon Slaying Order' and reward 50,000 spirit stones. Yan Shuangdao stroked his beard and smiled.
"Huh?" Xiao Mo raised his eyebrows and turned his head to look at Ming and Yue.
"It's true, it's just that for as long as I can remember, no one in the Six Kingdoms has been rewarded with a demon slayer, and I've almost forgotten that there is such a thing. "Ming and Yue suddenly.
"Not only these years, but since the Terran Righteous Demon Society Alliance, no one has been rewarded for slaying demons for more than forty years. Yan Shuangdao sighed with emotion, and then the big handprint slapped heavily on Xiao Mo's body again, "Haha, but now my apprentice actually killed the Dark Emperor, one of the four emperors of the demon clan, it really has the demeanor of my youth!"
Looking at the big handprint that slammed on Xiao Mo's shoulder, Ming and Yue seemed to feel that their shoulders trembled slightly, and then looked at Xiao Mo who was grinning with sympathy.
"Master, did you receive a reward for slaying demons when you were young?" After Yan Shuangdao withdrew his big handprint, Xiao Mo smiled bitterly and rubbed his sour shoulders.
"Back then, it was true that you followed your ancestor and uncle to go deep into the demon clan region. Yan Shuangdao's face showed a hint of reminiscence.
"What is the Demon Domain like?" Xiao Moming and Yue both showed curiosity on their faces, and Xiao Mo and Yan Shuangdao also described the forest when they first arrived in this realm and met Tan Zhen.
"Oh, you've been to the buffer zone?" Yan Shuangdao raised an eyebrow.
"Buffer belt?" Xiao Mo's eyes were confused.
"The countless demon slaying fiefdoms on the border of the Seven Kingdoms of Shenzhou are further outward, there is a no-man's land about 10,000 miles wide that surrounds the Seven Kingdoms of Shenzhou, as a buffer zone separated from the Demon Domain, which is called the buffer zone by the world, and from the perspective of the environment you were in at the time, it should be within the buffer zone. Yan Shuangdao stroked the beard and explained.
"It turns out that Brother Tan had already escaped all the way out of the demon domain and fled to the buffer zone, and he was almost able to return to Shenzhou alive, hey......" Xiao Mo's expression darkened slightly.
"What's wrong?" Yan Shuangdao saw that Xiao Mo's mood was a little low, and a trace of concern flashed in his eyes.
"Nothing, just thinking about some of the experiences I had in the buffer zone at the time. Xiao Mo shook his head and calmed down.
Yan Shuangdao glanced at Xiao Mo deeply, and didn't ask much, and was about to continue to tell the two about the Demon Domain, when suddenly, he frowned, raised his head violently, and looked at the small black dot in the sky that was rapidly approaching the three of them in the far distance, and his face was slightly condensed.
