Chapter 612: The Palace Guard
Qin Yun looked at the palace that was gradually 'filled' by the army, and his expression condensed slightly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, it had been nearly half an hour since the complete destruction of the Imperial Forest Army, and his Anemo Marksman had almost completely occupied the entire palace. However, there was still no movement from the Emperor, and even he and Daji were nowhere to be found, let alone the mysterious palace guard.
"Could it be that he has already escaped from the palace?" Qin Yun thought with some doubts in his heart.
But when he thought of the conceited and arrogant disposition of the king of Esu, he couldn't help but shake his head, thinking that it was unlikely. The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change, and the king is not a person who is so easy to change.
At this moment, a rush of footsteps sounded in a hurry.
"My lord, my lord, the palace has been arranged. No one can leave the palace until the formation is broken. A young man who was different from the Shenwu Army's uniform walked over and saluted Qin Yun and Xiao Rou. What he held in his hand was the proud magic weapon of the true monarch of pure morality - mixed yuan flag, which was brilliant and very mysterious.
There were more than a dozen people who came with the young people, all dressed in different military dresses, or chic, or Taoist costumes, or ordinary, and they were the cultivators under Qin Yun's command. The young man holding the mixed yuan banner was called Wang Zhai, and he was the leader of a group of cultivators, and his cultivation had already reached the realm of the Golden Immortal.
Qin Yun is not a cultivator, he is just a general in the mortal world, so there are only some scattered cultivators who are attracted by wealth and nobility who come to him, most of them are in the realm of scattered immortals to the realm of heavenly immortals, there are very few in the realm of true immortals, and there is only one golden immortal, Wang Zhai. This is still because Wang Zhai was rescued by Qin Yun by coincidence and owed a lot of karma, so he defected to repay the cause and effect.
I have to say that with Qin Yun's previous identity, it really didn't have much attraction for these cultivators.
Qin Yun nodded at Wang Zhai and turned his gaze back to the palace. Soon, there was an imperceptible fluctuation in the palace, which quickly spread in the palace.
Qin Yun asked Wang Zhai to use the Mixed Yuan Banner to set up a position at this time, not only to prevent King Xuan and Daji from leaving the palace, but also to beware of the extremely mysterious palace guards. The strange calm in this palace made Qin Yun feel a sense of psychological foreboding.
"Yes...... Yes! ”
Sure enough, as Qin Yun expected, not long after, a rapid scream sounded. When the large army arrived, it was discovered that before he knew it, there were already more than 100 Fengshen marksmen who had been killed, and nearly ten teams of 12 people had been wiped out. It was still the last squad leader who cultivated to a high level of profundity, and his body was alert, and the warning signal sent out when he was dying made Qin Yun and the others react in time.
Before this, neither Xiao Rou, who had cultivated to the peak of the Golden Immortal, nor Wang Zhai, who was holding the Mixed Yuan Banner, felt the slightest movement.
Xiao Rou's face was pale, and in addition to making her heart ache, the killing of her subordinates also surged up with a huge anger. With a 'brush', Xiao Rou completely relied on her senses, and the bow in her hand had already 'buzzed', and a sharp arrow shot towards the northeast corner at a speed exceeding the speed of light.
A black shadow flashed out of thin air, and the sharp arrow hit the black shadow's heart, and immediately fell down without a snort.
"Palace Guard!" The pupils in Qin Yun's eyes shrank, and he frowned.
He didn't expect that the palace guards would be even more difficult and powerful than he imagined. Even though he had already laid out a large array, he still used magic weapons such as the Mixed Yuan Banner as the center of the formation, and he still couldn't detect the traces of the palace guards.
When the palace guards found out that they were exposed, they didn't keep their hands at the moment, and they showed up one after another, killing wantonly. For a while, black shadows flashed in every corner, and countless Fengshen archers were suddenly murdered, and the screams were endless.
The figures of these palace guards were like ghosts, and they could not be traced by their eyes alone. Even the great masters of the Golden Immortal Realm like Xiao Rou and Wang Zhai couldn't find out how many people there were in these palace secret guards, but they just felt that everywhere they looked was full of enemy shadows.
"Whoosh" "Whoosh" "Whoosh" "Whoosh" "Whoosh" ......
Not to be outdone, the Anemo Marksman began to fight back, countless sharp arrows crisscrossing each other in a small space, shooting towards the black shadow, but not affecting their nearby companions in the slightest. This kind of archery has reached an almost unbelievable level.
The most terrifying thing is that this kind of archery is not a few people, but the skills of five thousand wind god marksmen. Back then, the Wind God Marksman was all over the world, and it was not unreasonable for Hou Yi to capture the Great Xia King with only three thousand Wind God Marksmen in one fell swoop, and it was no wonder that Han Xun was so jealous of the poor people back then.
Think about it, just having the ability of the Wind God Marksman who had the seven leaders of the poor tribe back then had such a ability, then how terrifying the three thousand Wind God Marksmen formed with the poor people back then.
Qin Yun looked at the skills of the Wind God Archer and felt that he was a little arrogant. The hidden potential of the Wind God Marksman has not yet been fully tapped, and this is a powerful army that will never be inferior to any top cultivator in the world.
However, although the Anemo Marksman is powerful, the palace guards seem to be superior. Their figures seemed illusory, and sharp arrows passed through their figures unhindered, as if through air.
In particular, in an environment like the Imperial Palace, the palace guards were fully able to exert their full skills, and suppressed the restricted Fengshen Marksman very badly.
When many Aeolian archers saw this, their faces immediately changed. How to fight this, you only have to be beaten, and the opponent is completely unharmed. Even a hundred battle elites like the Aeolus Marksman, after discovering this situation, their morale couldn't help but drop.
Xiao Rou found this problem, her eyes closed slightly, and she decisively shot another arrow by feeling, and immediately another hidden palace guard was killed by her arrow and fell out.
"Don't be fooled by their tricks, watch out." Xiao Rou shouted loudly.
With Xiao Rou's moves, the declining morale of the Anemo Archer has recovered. But the palace guards are worthy of being palace guards, except for Xiao Rou's occasional gains, other people, including Wang Zhai, who presided over the big array, can't find any trace of the palace guards.
And when the palace guards were on guard, Xiao Rou couldn't shoot as well as before, and it became more and more difficult to grasp the traces of the palace guards. On the contrary, on the side of the Anemo Marksman, the casualties became more and more heavy, and the Anemo Archer continued to fall.
These palace guards are like emotionless robots, just killing mechanically, without any mood swings. Even, from beginning to end, there was no sound coming out, and it was calm and terrifying.
