Chapter 19: Penance
In the wilderness frontier, nine lonely cities stand, with the Luoshen Mountain Range as the tail, separated by thousands of miles, and go deep into the wild desert in turn.
"Woo Woo ......"
At this time, hundreds of strong men in gorgeous costumes flew past in the void, carrying a gorgeous sedan chair in the center, and hundreds of people were scattered around, obviously to protect the people in the sedan chair.
Although these people are dressed nobly, they are all wearing masks and have a restrained atmosphere, obviously not wanting to reveal their identities.
This group of mysterious people was extremely fast, and soon descended to the nearest city to the Falling God Mountains.
This city is called Hancheng, which is the main city of nine protector cities, the largest and strongest defense, and was originally garrisoned by Luoshen.
In front of the defending city, there were eight other cities in turn, which were guarded by the eight sons of Luoshen.
Nine cities are on the front line, increasing troops and reinforcing each other, attacking and retreating, and defending, which can be described as flawless.
It was such a perfect defense that stopped the offensive of the O-European Empire for hundreds of years, but four months ago, it was completely captured by Oykais in just one month......
"A few people went to the eight cities in front to inspect the situation, cough cough cough. On the city wall, in the palanquin, a majestic voice came.
His voice was slightly weak, and he couldn't help but cough a few times as soon as he finished speaking.
"Yes......" Eight Mysteries hurriedly knelt down and answered, then got up and turned into eight phantoms and disappeared in place in an instant.
As soon as the eight people left, the silk curtain of the sedan chair was lifted, and a man slowly walked out of it.
This person is also wearing a mask, but he is wearing a dragon robe, and although his aura is restrained, the domineering aura that belongs to the superior is difficult to hide.
The man in the dragon robe stood on the city wall and walked out, and a rickety old man carrying a sedan chair beside him hurriedly stepped forward and respectfully supported the man with both hands.
Overlooking everything in the ruined city, the dragon-robed man's thoughts spread, instantly covering the entire city, and soon spread thousands of miles away from the city.
Under the cover of thoughts, corpses were everywhere, and there was a scene of ruin and tragedy.
The corpse is full
They are all soldiers of the Luojun Dynasty, because there is no one to collect the corpses, the wind blows the sun in this bloody sand, and finally can only be reduced to wind bones.
The others were also scattered, and beneath the masks were solemn faces.
"Ahem, cough, ahem......" The man in the dragon robe coughed suddenly, his breath fluctuated a little, and his body was a little shaky.
"Your Majesty. ”
"Your Majesty. ”
"Your Majesty. ”
......
Several people suddenly stepped forward to help.
The man in the dragon robe raised his hand on the rickety old man's body, and gestured slightly, and everyone stopped their steps.
If you look closely, you will find that its slightly raised palm is not as white as a human hand.
"Please hold the dragon body of our emperor, the Luojun Dynasty cannot be left without an owner. At this time, the rickety old man also opened his mouth to admonish.
At this time, the eight people who had set off before had also returned, and they all knelt in front of the man in the dragon robe and said: "Back to the emperor, no one was found alive, and the bodies of General Luo Shen and the nine major generals were not found. ”
Hearing the news brought back by the eight people, the man in the dragon robe, his hands trembled slightly, and he was silent.
The air froze instantly, and no one dared to say a word.
After a long time, the man in the dragon robe finally spoke, "Collect all the corpses of these soldiers who died for the country, and bring them back to the court to be buried in the military grave." ”
"Remember, no one is missing, ahem, ahem. ”
In the previous sentence, the man's tone implied sadness, but in the latter sentence, it revealed unquestionable majesty.
"Yes, yes, yes......" Hundreds of people suddenly got up and gathered to all corners of the Nine Cities, not daring to slack off in the slightest.
At this time, there was only a rickety old man and an extremely burly man left beside the dragon-robed man.
The burly man was extremely tall, more than three meters tall, with a pair of horns on his head, and although he was wearing a mask, he looked extremely intimidating.
"Brute. ”
"The minister is here. ”
The momentum of the dragon robe man changed, and he suddenly spoke majestically, and the burly man hurriedly knelt on the ground.
"I have appointed you as the commander of the three armies, in charge of the three armies. ”
"From now on, you are limited to three months to recruit new soldiers, there is no upper limit. ”
"The treasury resources are still at your disposal, and I want you to train five million soldiers within half a year. ”
"Within a year, I will personally go out to crusade against the Ou Empire. ”
The dragon-robed man's voice was not loud, but it revealed an irreversible majesty, and at the same time, a dragon talisman flew towards the man.
In the Luojun Dynasty, there is a dragon and phoenix talisman, the one who holds the dragon talisman is the commander, and the one who holds the phoenix talisman is the king.
Those who wield the dragon talisman can mobilize the three armies and exercise military power.
And the holder of the phoenix talisman controls only one person, and that is the holder of the dragon talisman.
"Minister, Commander. The brute held the dragon talisman in both hands, and his head slammed deep on the ground.
"Your Majesty, now that the wilderness is in turmoil, the princes are rising, the dynasty is embattled, and it is precarious, it is not appropriate to send troops, I hope my emperor will think twice. At this time, the rickety old man knelt down and admonished.
"In the battle of the trapped beasts, if you don't take the initiative to attack, you will only die. Looking down at the old man, the dragon-robed man spoke unquestionably.
......
Shura Purgatory, the hundredth floor, inside the main hall.
Half a month passed in a flash.
In the illusion, the two figures kept fighting, and the sword shadows filled the sky.
"Huh~"
Luo Yan's footsteps were magical, one leaned back, flew out upside down, and the water man stabbed the air with a sword.
Luo Yan's figure moved, the speed was extremely fast, and the next moment he appeared directly behind the water man, and a sword stabbed out, directly approaching the water man's head.
The black sword in Luo Yan's hand flashed with black light, and the speed of the sword was extremely fast, which was not at all above the same level as Luo Yan for half a month.
The water man seemed to be prepared, his body spun back, and the sword in his hand stabbed directly backwards.
"Bell~"
Beautifully turned around and shot back, instantly defusing Luo Yan's attack.
Half a month ago, Luo Yan could only be forced to defend, and he was extremely embarrassed, but now he has changed his defense to offense, and he has completely understood the magic of the real sword of the Seven Hearts Sword Technique and the Spirit Step of the Thousand Shadows Empty Step.
In just half a month, Luo Yan has been able to tie with the water man who is at the peak of both the real sword and the spirit step, which completely exceeds Mo Shang's lonely expectations.
Of course, this is not only a problem of Luo Yan's talent, but also the result of Luo Yan's perseverance.
In the past half a month, Luo Yan has hardly rested, and he is immersed in the battle of the water people every moment.
Among them, I don't know how many times he was killed by the water man, and the mental pain caused by each death made Luo Yan faint several times, but Luo Yan persevered.
......
"This guy, his mental power is so tenacious?" Outside, the poisonous old ghost frowned slightly, and his heart was slightly shocked.
Several other old men also stared at Luo Yan silently, who had been holding out for half a month, and their hearts moved slightly.
This little guy is so crazy about cultivating, doesn't he need to rest?
Compared with the shock of the six people to Luo Yan's spiritual power, Mo Shang stared at Luo Yan in the illusion alone but quietly, and stared at the black sword in Luo Yan's hand with sword eyes.
In the illusion.
"Come again. The corners of Luo Yan's mouth raised slightly, grasped the advantage, turned the black sword in his hand, and continued to kill the water man.
Not to be outdone, the water man also took out his sword to kill Luo Yan.
"Bell Bell Bell ......"
The sword shadow filled the sky, and the two of them took out their swords dozens of times in a single breath, and at the same time, they both released their unique sword momentum.
The swords of the two of them became faster and faster, and countless sword shadows slashed between the two of them, but none of them touched the two of them.
"You're at your limit, but alas, I haven't. The corners of Luo Yan's mouth raised slightly, and he smiled confidently, "In this case, you can lose." ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw that the speed balance between the two people who were originally evenly matched was suddenly broken, and I saw that the sword in Luo Yan's hand was getting faster and faster, and the sword momentum suddenly exploded, and the sword became more and more brilliant.
Luo Yan kept approaching, and the water man was constantly forced to retreat, and the sword could no longer keep up with Luo Yan's rhythm, and gradually revealed defeat.
Luo Yan's eyes froze, his eyes were as sharp as a sword, and he didn't dare to be careless.
In the duel between swordsmen, the victory or defeat is often between thoughts, so the success or failure is uncertain, how dare Luo Yan have the slightest slackness.
Constantly forcing back the water man, Luo Yan shook his sword, and the water man hurriedly dodged.
"This is the moment. ”
"Sting~"
Taking this opportunity, Luo Yan's sword turned and a sword slashed through the neck of the water man.
The water man instantly stopped the sword in his hand, his eyes stared at Luo Yan, it seemed to be a little complicated, and the next moment, he directly turned into a puddle of white water and melted into the sea.
"Won. Luo Yan was happy in his heart, and the next moment, a flower appeared in front of him, the illusion was shattered, and the picture in front of him turned around, and it had appeared in the center of the main hall.
"Half a month, you have a talent in kendo. On the column, Mo Shang's lonely and cold voice came.
"It's all taught by the teacher. Luo Yan dared to ask for credit, and hurriedly said modestly.
"It took me ten years to sharpen my sword to reach this point, and now that you can defeat me at the beginning, it proves that your mastery of the real sword has reached my original level, and in this case, you can try to cultivate the second sword next. ”
"But the sharpening of the real sword is not overnight, it will be tempered in the process of using the Seven Hearts Sword Technique in the future, until you give up this exercise. ”
Ignoring Luo Yan's sycophancy, Mo Shang Lonely slowly spoke.
"The disciple understands that the disciple will definitely live up to this exercise. Luo Yan spoke sincerely.
Of course, he knew the reason why he entered so quickly, on the one hand, because of his talent and hard work, and on the other hand, because of the experience and conditions that Moshang Lonely gave him.
After cultivating the Seven Hearts Sword Technique, Luo Yan knew what was terrifying about it, and this first sword alone was all-encompassing and jaw-dropping.
Without any more nonsense, Luo Yan sat cross-legged and began to cultivate the second sword.
Now that he has cultivated the real sword of the Seven Heart Sword Technique and the spiritual step of the Thousand Shadow Empty Step to the fullest, he will try the Void Sword and the Xuanbu next.
"The second sword of the Seven Hearts Sword Technique, the Void Sword, condenses the sword with aura, and uses the sword of thought. ”
"The virtual sword is condensed, the real is the virtual, the virtual is the real, and the square is the sword of the virtual reality. ”
......
Luo Yan closed his eyes, released the aura all over his body, and slowly condensed the second sword in front of Luo Yan's chest.
Slowly, a slender and sharp long sword slowly condensed, becoming more and more condensed.
His eyes opened suddenly, and the condensed void sword in front of his chest made a clanging sound.
Looking at the void sword in front of him, Luo Yan frowned slightly, hurry, too fast, he only took half a burnt incense before and after condensing this void sword, right?
And that succeeded?
"Don't be surprised, the Sword of Void and Reality was originally the prototype of this seven-heart sword technique. ”
"The virtual and the real depend on each other, the real sword has been sharpened and matured, and the virtual sword will naturally come into being. ”
"It's just that the five swords I took were created by my own hands, and it is no longer so easy to cultivate. ”
Seeing Luo Yan's doubts, Mo Shang explained alone.
Luo Yan was relieved.
