Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Fish and Turtle in the Urn
"What's the situation?" asked Long Haotian and Yan Meng after converging.
"Chi Xingwen ran away, we lost three brothers, and Hou Jiang was also injured!" Yan Meng's face showed a little displeasure, because all this could have been avoided.
"Fourth son, how about taking Chiyan Villa in one go?" Wu Yang said.
"Brothers!" Yan Meng said in a loud voice, "Are you willing to follow me to the Chiyan Villa!"
"I'll follow you to the death!" everyone shouted in unison, and their morale was extremely high.
Long Haotian was also moved by this iron-blooded qi for a while. In the previous life, he also led his subordinates to fight in the south and the north like this, and he also encouraged his subordinates like Yan Meng. Of course, at that time, the people he led were all Venerable-level powerhouses, and every battle would raze thousands of mountains to the ground, and the power was far beyond the comparison of these soldiers. However, this feeling of enthusiasm deeply infected his heart.
"Very good!" Yan Meng nodded and said to Hou Jiang, "Hou Jiang, doesn't your injury matter?"
"Back to the fourth prince, it's just that the arm is not very strong, and it's not a big problem!" Hou Jiang said angrily, "The fourth prince wants to set foot in Chiyan Villa, please take Hou Jiang with you!"
In fact, he was seriously injured, his left arm was broken, and he couldn't lift it at all. But as a battle-hardened warrior and a deputy commander, he must not show any expression of flinching at this moment.
Yan Meng stared at Hou Jiang's firm eyes, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Very good! It is worthy of my Yan Meng's lieutenant general! But I want you to do something more important now!"
"Do you want to go back to Dragon Bird City and ask for reinforcements?" asked Hou Jiang.
"That's good!" Yan Meng nodded, and then said to Wu Yang: "Wu Yang, you stay here, I will send you another brother, and the aftermath of the three dead brothers will be handed over to you." As a warrior, you should have the consciousness of burying your bones in a foreign land, so bury them on the spot!"
"Obey!" Wu Yang received the order, and Hou Jiang also rode his horse towards Longque City.
"Let's go, brothers!" Yan Meng rode his horse and whipped his whip, and the battle lance pointed straight to the south, "Follow me to level the Chiyan Villa!"
On the other side, Chixingwen was panicked like a lost dog, and rushed towards the villa like crazy. Eventually, he fell heavily in front of the lodge. His mount was struck by four arrows and died halfway through. He endured the pain and ran all the way back, and he was exhausted at the moment.
The guards at the gate of the villa saw 1,300 people set off in a mighty manner, but only the owner of the village returned covered in blood, and they couldn't help but be stunned.
"Quick! Open the Guardian Array!"
Red Xingwen roared hoarsely with all his last strength.
When each city builds its walls, it will also place a set of magic circles. Of course, those big cities with prominent status have more than one guardian array. The most common is the outer city and the inner city, and then there will be corresponding circles outside the walls of the royal palace and the princely mansion.
The strength of the circle has nothing to do with the size, a powerful princely family, even a house of the magic circle may be stronger than the guardian circle of an ordinary small city.
The first factor that determines the strength of a circle is its own rank, and the strength of an equal circle depends on the quality of the resources that support its operation. This resource is the spiritual ore.
The spirit ore under Chiyan Mountain Villa was originally very rich, but it was almost squeezed dry by Long Haotian a few hours ago. This seems a bit unbelievable: since these spirit ores are enough to support the operation of the guardian array, can't they withstand the absorption of a martial artist?
In fact, there is an essential difference between the power of the spiritual ore absorbed by the martial artist and the absorption of the magic circle: that is, the former cannot absorb 100% of the energy, while the latter can do it.
Just like a person who eats a pound of meat will never immediately grow a pound of meat, it is very good that a martial artist can absorb about five percent. In addition, what Long Haotian had smelted was itself a tenth-order high-grade star seed, and the cost was even greater. This led to the entire vein being completely drained.
It can also be seen from this that a family really needs to cultivate a heroic hero for the terrible resources it takes. You must know that after squeezing out a spirit mine, Long Haotian has only just refined the third level of the Star Realm.
Fortunately, before this, under the foundation of the guardian circle, enough spiritual ore had been put into it, which was enough to support the opening of the circle.
In an instant, a flaming red light rose from the hundreds of watchtowers on the wall of the villa. Then the light rose into the sky and converged in mid-air. After that, a huge red-billed crowned eagle appeared in the sky above the Chiyan Villa.
This red-billed crested eagle is also an extremely large bird of prey, comparable to the dragon sparrow.
At this moment, the big bird spread its huge wings, completely enveloping the Chiyan Mountain Villa. Right now, it was the darkest hour before dawn, and there was not a single starlight in the dark sky, but this divine sparrow illuminated half of the sky.
"Damn! it's too late!" Yan Meng saw the red-billed crown eagle half-hanging in the air from a distance, and he hated it so much that he stuck the war lance on the ground, "With this big bird guarding, it is impossible for a few of us to take Chiyan Villa!"
At this moment, I heard Chi Xingwen's mournful roar coming from the city tower: "Yan Dog! The Great Guardian Array has been opened, do you want to taste it? Hahahaha! Come on! Let them taste the power of this red-beaked crown carving array!"
The mountain was shaken, and the magic circle master immediately urged the runes on the platform. The red-beaked crown eagle that was half-suspended in the air seemed to be quiet at first, but suddenly it became violent.
Just watch its wings flapp, and suddenly a rain of fire and fire sprayed down on the fierce troops.
"Stand back!"
Yan Meng's troops were well-trained, and their horses were all one-in-a-million divine horses, and they were not afraid of fire attacks, and they dodged this first round of attacks in a blink of an eye. It's just that where they are, they have taken a full hundred steps back. The earth in front of him turned into a sea of fire.
"Fourth Prince, let me try the power of this magic circle!" A soldier rode out of the crossbow camp and skillfully raised the bowstring.
Although he knew that this must be an egg hitting a stone, Yan Meng did not want to suppress the enthusiasm of this soldier. He nodded and said, "Go ahead! Do what you can, don't be brutal!"
"Yes!" the soldier rode his horse and whipped his whip, and rushed straight in the direction of the city wall, and when he came to the sea of fire, he raised his crossbow and "swished" and fired three arrows in succession.
I heard three loud bangs, and three sharp arrows were blown to pieces.
"Ignorant child!" Chi Xingwen pointed at his finger and scolded, "Do you think that you can break through my guardian array with your bow and arrows?" Tell you! This is a third-order brute beast formation, even if your Yanxiong old dog comes here in person, it will be in vain!"
The third-order brute beast array can easily kill the ninth-level powerhouse of the Flame Heaven Realm, even if it is a powerhouse in the middle of the Demon Tribulation Realm, it will be extremely difficult to easily break it.
Suddenly, Long Haotian seemed to sense something, and he turned over and dismounted, pressing his ears to the ground.
"Blind!" Chi Xingwen immediately shouted when he saw Long Haotian's move, "Your ears are really good, you heard it right!" At this moment, the Red Leaf Village and the Flying Bear Castle, as well as the troops of the other eight major families, are rushing here. In a short time, you will be fish and turtles in the urn, wait for death!"
It's the weekend, I hope you have a lot of support after resting!
