Chapter One Thousand and Twenty-Two: Pill Grandmaster
On the way back to Yunhuan Lake, Xia Fan took a look at his brothers who were leading their troops towards the capital.
Of course, Xia Fan didn't have direct contact with them, but after looking at the situation of the battle condescendingly, he was probably able to guess their current situation.
It was obvious that after the initial overwhelming attack, the soldiers and horses under the command of these Xia Fan brothers began to encounter stubborn resistance, and as they gradually moved deeper into the hinterland of the Han Dynasty, the resistance, resistance, and even siege they had to face became more and more fierce.
In fact, this is a very normal thing.
The current Han Dynasty may not be able to take care of the strong control of the remote areas, but the control of the hinterland is absolutely unprecedentedly powerful, otherwise someone can attack the capital casually, then how can the Han Dynasty exist for so long, I am afraid that it has been destroyed early.
The timing of Xia Hu and the others' troops was relatively coincidental, just in time for Ying Potian to lead his troops to attack the Han Dynasty, which to a certain extent was equivalent to helping Xia Fan and others distract the attention of the Han Dynasty, making the attack they faced much weaker than under normal circumstances.
At the same time, although the eight tigers of the Xia family led by Xia Hu were divided into three factions, and they had not yet completely competed for the final winner, they were the sons of the town king Xiahou after all, so they would naturally attract the allegiance of those who originally served Xiahou, which meant that they got the resources left by Xiahou.
It has not been a day or two since the town king Xiahou wanted to rebel, and he has also made quite long and meticulous preparations for this, which undoubtedly provides some convenience for Xia Hu and the others.
So in the beginning, their attack was relatively smooth. It's just that this kind of convenience can't last forever after all.
Especially the closer to the hinterland, the stronger the actual control of the Han Dynasty, and some of the soldiers who had originally taken refuge in the town king Xiahou had already been purged or transferred, so the convenience that could be provided to Xia Hu and others naturally became less and less.
Moreover, when they raised troops outside before, the Han Dynasty did not care too much, but regarded it as a disease of ringworm, and most of them would not do their best to encircle and suppress it.
But when they drove straight into the hinterland and got closer and closer, it would become a big trouble for the Han Dynasty, and of course it would be impossible to be careless and slack, and they would definitely mobilize a large army to strangle them.
Even if the Han Dynasty is now suffering from internal and external troubles, and there are troubles everywhere, but it has been able to establish a country for so many years, and the background is still quite deep, as the so-called broken ship and three catties of nails, and now the Han Dynasty is not completely rotten to the point of hopelessness, so when it is running, the power that erupts is still quite powerful.
If the Eight Tigers of the Xia Family can work together and rely on the soldiers and horses in their hands to fight against the army of the Han Dynasty, then there must still be a great opportunity. After all, the elites of the Han Dynasty are now on the front line of fighting against the Eagle Breaking Army, and now the ones who are sent to suppress the rebellion are not very strong troops.
But now the Eight Tigers of the Xia family are fighting for dominance, so they have been divided into three factions first, which has undoubtedly weakened their strength. This gave the Han Dynasty a chance to divide and eliminate.
In addition, if the Eight Tigers of the Xia Family want to attack the capital, then they will inevitably have to take the big road, and of course they will have to face one city after another. This is also eating down their fighting spirit and strength.
From this, you can imagine what the current situation of the Eight Tigers of the Xia Family will be. It's not great, but it's not terrible.
"A good handful of cards have been played like this, and it seems that they are capable of this. Xia Fan glanced at it a few times and shook his head in disappointment, and then left directly.
Xia Fan didn't go directly to Yunhuan Lake, but planned to go to Yong'an County first.
I don't want to be just when Xia Fan just entered the Treasure Cang Province, but he was stopped by three cultivators in the early stage of the Grandmaster Realm, and they were all from the Offering Courtyard.
"Xia Fan, you have no way to escape, quickly tie your hands and go back with us to die. One of them stared at Xia Fandao with cold eyes.
It's just that before his words fell, a ray of light had already burst out, and it was Xia Fan's Heaven Locking Tribulation.
This person wanted to dodge, but his body suddenly froze, because an incomparably powerful pressure pressed on his body like Mount Tai was overwhelming, so that even if he had the strength of the early stage of the Grandmaster Realm, it was greatly affected.
In the battle of the strong, many times life and death are only in an instant, especially in the battle of the strong in the Grandmaster Realm.
At this time, although this person's body was only a little slower for a moment, he was already completely shrouded by the Heaven Lock Tribulation, and he was directly locked up in it.
Of course, this person was unwilling to be imprisoned, and suddenly burst out with all his strength, and even sacrificed a magic weapon to bombard the cage, trying to escape from it, but the shackles in the cage seemed to come to life at this time, and the dragon circled and danced, blocking its magic weapon, and at the same time the formation in the Heavenly Tribulation operated, and under strong suppression, this person was quickly bound by the shackles and completely became a prisoner in the cage.
He was definitely not the only one who was unlucky, because when this person was imprisoned, the Heavenly Tribulation flew towards the person on the left again.
Xia Fan flashed in front of the person on the right, and raised his hand to slap it with one palm. The palm power is like a tide, surging and agitating, overwhelming.
The worship of "Bang ......" was obviously quite confident in his own strength, and when he saw Xia Fan attacking, he actually sneered and waved his hand to greet him.
When the two palms collided, the shock wave exploded like thunder, and at the same time, a figure had already flown out upside down, blood spurted wildly from the mouth, and the whole arm had fallen softly, obviously the bones in it had been shattered, and even the sleeves had been shattered by the qi, the skin and flesh were cracked, and the blood was dripping, which looked miserable.
"It's just the strength of the Grandmaster Realm that has been improved by relying on the elixir, where did you get the courage to dare to come and make an enemy of me?!" When a somewhat mocking voice came, Xia Fan had already appeared behind this person, and he grabbed the back of his neck without allowing him to resist, picked it up like a toy, and threw it into the Sky Swallowing Pocket casually.
But anyone who was thrown into the Sky Swallowing Pocket by Xia Fan, whether it was Shen Yunda before or the current person, had no way to survive at all. It will be directly devoured by the formation in the Sky Devouring Pocket, and then transformed into a shattered divine light.
Xia Fan is not an evil demon after all, it is impossible to kill innocents indiscriminately in order to increase the number of broken divine lights, but if it is an enemy, it doesn't matter, it should be waste.
"You ........." The rest of them didn't expect Xia Fan to be so powerful, it was just a face, one of his two companions was imprisoned, and the other was somewhere he went, and he didn't know where he was alive or dead.
Under the fright, his face turned pale, and he had no intention of resisting in the face of the Heavenly Tribulation flying towards him, and he jumped and set up a sword light to escape.
It's just that he has already been locked by Xia Fan's divine thoughts now, and the Heaven Lock Tribulation is an extremely powerful magic weapon, how can he escape.
I saw the light flickering on the Lock Heaven Tribulation, and the chains that were originally hanging in it shook and shook, constantly extending out, like a dragon passing through the sky, directly entangled it, and dragged it into the Lock Heaven Tribulation.
"You people, originally only the ninth level of the Divine Spirit Realm, barely reached the early stage of the Grandmaster Realm with the help of pills, and you dare to come out with your teeth and claws when there are many people, do you really think that you are invincible in the world?!" Xia Fan took the Locking Heaven Tribulation in his hand, glanced at the two people who were locked in the Locking Heaven Tribulation, and said contemptuously.
From the moment he saw these three people, Xia Fan could tell at a glance that their strength was vain, and it was not really a grandmaster realm that had broken through through to accumulation and epiphany, but had been improved by relying on pills. Such strength naturally cannot be compared with him.
In the process of cultivation, cultivators must be inseparable from all kinds of pills, but sometimes they can use them, and sometimes they can never use them. It's like breaking through the bottleneck, breaking through with pills and relying on your own strength to break through the results seem to be the same, but in fact they are too much worse.
The former is like a castle in the air, good-looking, but really meeting a strong person is definitely the result of being beaten. There will be no such problem with the latter.
Xia Fan also often used pills, but he knew when to use them and when not to use them. Even if he was occasionally forced to take pills to break through because of the situation, he always had a way to make up for it, so along the way, the foundation was quite solid.
That's why he's always able to challenge his enemies and win them.
Not to mention that at this time, the three people in front of them relied on pills to have the strength of the early stage of the Grandmaster Realm, even if they were real powerhouses in the early stage of the Grandmaster Realm, Xia Fan was not afraid at all when facing them.
Even if Xia Fan only had seventy or eighty percent of his peak strength now, with his mid-stage Grandmaster Realm realm, it was enough to crush them.
"How many people are there like you?" Xia Fan asked, looking at the two of them.
"I don't know. The one who was originally captured by Xia Fan said coldly.
"The answer is incorrect. Xia Fan sneered, and as soon as his mind moved, the Heaven Lock Tribulation suddenly opened, and the person was released, but before he could react to what Xia Fan wanted to do, he was swallowed by the Sky Swallowing Pocket, and then he was killed by the swarming Broken Divine Light, and even the flesh and blood were swallowed by the formation in the bag.
"Now it's your turn. Xia Fan looked at the rest of the people.
"I said, I said. The man hurriedly said, "There are seven in all." Because the pill is really quite domineering, so when taking the pill to improve the strength, it is also a life of nine deaths, at the beginning, a total of thirteen of us took the pill, but only ten people survived, and the other three although they did not die, but they also cultivated to the end. ”
"Where did you get this elixir from?" Xia Fan asked again.
"I don't know. The man shook his head and said, "It was given to us by the dean, saying that it could break through the bottleneck for us and become a strong person in the Grandmaster Realm, and he asked us if we would like to give it a go." We don't have much to live for, so of course we want to fight for it. My luck is better, I didn't die and I still have the strength of the early stage of the Grandmaster Realm. ”
"Then who is your dean?" Xia Fan remembered the extremely powerful sword light, and couldn't help but have a murderous surge in his heart, and asked in a deep voice.
"I don't know, I really don't know, we just call him the dean, but we rarely see him. The man replied.
"Who is this?!" Xia Fan secretly guessed in his heart, and casually asked a few more questions about this worship named Gong Jingxiao. After listening to his answers one by one, he said: "I won't kill you first, but I won't let you go, whether you can survive depends on your luck in the future." ”
Gong Jingxiao was quite happy when he heard Xia Fan say not to kill him, but then he became frightened again, but he also knew that begging for mercy was useless, so he finally sighed, lowered his head and stopped talking.
