Chapter 898: Yan Hongzheng left the scene gloomily
In the lightning and thunder, everyone dispersed, and even Yan Hongzheng and Cao Yucang had already stopped fighting.
After the thunder and lightning, it began to rain heavily, and many people tried to resist it, intending to prevent the rain from spilling on their bodies.
If in normal times, many people can do it, and when the aura is released, an invisible protective circle will be formed around their body, and the rain will not be able to drench themselves at all.
Instead, tonight's rain is different from usual.
Everyone in the rain curtain failed to avoid the rain that fell on their bodies, and even Yan Hongzheng and Cao Yucang, who had the highest cultivation on the field, were drenched in soup by the rain.
It rained strangely, and both sides reflexively retreated in the direction of their own camp, and they were divided into two camps in an instant.
Suddenly, another flash of lightning swept through the night sky, as if God was angry and wanted to tear the sky apart, and that lightning instantly passed through the sky and struck the earth, in the direction of this battlefield.
The lightning seemed to have come to consciousness, and it hit the camp of the Zhou Shan monks' army.
"Ahh
In an instant, there were bursts of terrible screams from that camp.
"Boom—"
The deafening thunder came just in time, muffling out the screams.
The sound of the wind, the sound of the rain, the screams, and the thunder are intertwined, rendering this rainy night extremely tragic and tragic.
Before the thunder had yet to dissipate, a second flash of lightning flashed, and the target was still the same place.
Some of the people in Zhou Shan's army used their fastest moves, intending to pass through this rain curtain and escape from this earthly purgatory.
However, as soon as they got up, they were immediately struck by lightning, and no one was able to escape, and in that flash of light, many people saw the scene of those people being struck by lightning, and they were immediately burned to black coals without even making a scream, and then fell to the ground, splashing on the ground that was already half a foot deep.
Yan Hongzheng was mentally prepared, he didn't choose to flee, and when he saw that someone was killed by lightning because he wanted to escape, he immediately shouted:
"Sit down cross-legged, don't think about escaping, you have to restrain your mind, use your strength to resist, just like crossing the thunderstorm, if you can withstand it, you will survive, if you can't withstand it, it will be fate!"
Seeing that someone was killed by lightning, and now hearing Yan Hongzheng's words, everyone immediately gathered their minds, sat cross-legged on the ground full of stagnant water, and began to use their skills to resist.
One after another, lightning pierced the sky.
"Boom—"
The thunder exploded one after another, and before the aftermath was gone, new thunder continued to sound, appearing very dense.
The lightning continued, the thunder kept going, one lightning after another, and the thunder one after another hit the place where the army of Zhou Shan monks was located.
In the lightning and thunder, there were screams from time to time, and every scream meant that someone had fallen.
These are all masters above the tribulation period, and many of them are also approaching the time of the tribulation, and this thunder tribulation has just arrived in advance.
However, such a thunderstorm has already surpassed the thunder and lightning of the normal tribulation, and the intensity is more than ten times that of the normal tribulation.
Not to mention that those monks in the tribulation period can't stand it, even those who have already successfully crossed the tribulation can't bear it.
In the thunder and lightning strikes, people kept falling, one by one, and one by one......
Usually, in this land outside the sky, the people who can reach the Tribulation Period are all top masters, and they are rarely seen, but in this land now, there are so many masters above the Tribulation Period at once, and they are all dying one by one, which makes people feel extremely unreal.
The army of monks of Wanxiu Mountain, who were watching from a distance, were all palpitating, although the thunder and lightning did not hit their camp, but the lightning and thunder seemed to hit their hearts, and they all involuntarily showed expressions of fear.
They also wondered if they would have survived such thunder and lightning.
The answer was by no means optimistic, especially those who only had the cultivation of the Tribulation Period, and almost all of them felt hopeless.
It wasn't until the thirty-sixth thunderbolt was over that the sky finally returned to calm.
The lightning was gone, and the thunder had stopped, but the downpour had not yet ended, and the black clouds in the sky were still overwhelming.
After a quarter of an hour, the rain gradually lightened, and the dark clouds in the sky gradually dispersed.
After a stick of incense, the rain stopped completely, the dark clouds in the sky completely dispersed, the rain passed and the sky cleared, bright stars twinkled in the night sky, and a waning moon also hung in the sky.
The water that was more than a foot deep on the ground was also falling little by little, and everything was calm again.
However, looking at the place where the army of Zhoushan monks is located, it is extremely miserable, they have already killed more than 2,000 people, and in this thunderstorm, they have suffered about 3,000 casualties.
Of the 6,000-strong monk army, there were only seven or eight hundred left.
On the other side, the army of monks in Wanxiu Mountain, in addition to those killed in battle, still had about 1,500 people left.
The army of monks in Zhoushan includes some monks from Longxiao Kingdom itself, and there are also masters who have successfully crossed the tribulation, and none of the seven or eight hundred people who survived were in the tribulation period, and almost all of them were masters above the realm of the earth immortals.
Although they survived, but now their cultivation has been greatly affected, it can be said that in order to resist this thunder tribulation, they have all paid a lot of price, and everyone's foundation is less than a little influence, and it will even limit their future achievements.
Now they don't have much combat effectiveness.
Resisting this thunderstorm is more expensive than the previous big battle.
Yan Hongzheng stood up listlessly, it seemed that his situation was probably better, after all, he was the highest cultivator in the army of Zhoushan monks, after he glanced around the scene, he saw charred corpses one by one, including Long Chengyuan, who had been following him.
This ambitious generation of emperors fell in such a way and ended there, presumably before he died, he must have had a deep unwillingness in his heart.
He hadn't seen the Long Xiao Kingdom dominate the outer heavens yet, why did he die like this?
However, Yan Hongzheng couldn't have the slightest pity for him in his heart, because all this was brought about by his decision.
Compared with Long Chengyuan's death, Yan Hongzheng's heart is more sad about his own army, this is the team he has led for many years, in Jiuxian Mountain, they also have a brilliant record, on the battlefield over there, they did not die in battle, but they did not expect to die here in the end.
A sad expression appeared on his face.
The army of monks of Wanxiu Mountain, who were standing not far away, had been watching silently, and their faces did not show smug or gloating expressions, on the contrary, they all had solemn faces.
Cao Yucang seemed to be thinking about something, the expression on his face was very solemn, and there was a struggle in his eyes.
Ye Wuyue, who had been following him, asked softly:
"Can we go with the flow?"
In Ye Wuyue's view, this is the best opportunity to destroy the enemy, take advantage of his illness and ask for his life, the current army of Zhoushan monks is the weakest, if they launch a fierce attack now, they may be able to achieve a great victory, thus establishing the dominance of the demon world in the outer heavens.
Cao Yucang did not immediately answer his words, nor did he give the order to attack.
On the side of the army of Zhoushan monks, as Yan Hongzheng stood up, the people who really survived also stood up slowly one by one, the expressions on their faces were ugly, but they basically remained calm and did not show much anger.
From the moment they set out on the expedition, they had already expected this catastrophe, and they were mentally prepared in advance, the only surprise was that this curse seemed to come a little earlier than they expected.
They originally planned to quickly eliminate the Xiyu Kingdom after this war, and at that time, even if they suffered a catastrophe, it would be worth dying.
I didn't expect that God didn't give them such a chance.
died before leaving the school, and the hope of Longxiao Kingdom to dominate the world was dashed.
Yan Hongzheng turned his eyes to look at Cao Yucang, did not speak, and waited quietly.
He no longer has the vigor he had when he started it, and now that the initiative in the war is no longer in his hands, it is impossible for him to give the order to attack at this time.
Cao Yucang's face showed a tangled expression, he was hesitating and thinking, wondering whether to give the order to attack.
In fact, Cao Yucang also weighed in his heart that when he gave the order to attack at this time, how much hope he could have to win, that was the most important thing.
In terms of numbers, the army of monks in Wanxiu Mountain has an absolute advantage.
Morale and spirit, they also have the upper hand, the key is whether to continue to fight, the initiative is in his hands.
Feeling Yan Hongzheng's eyes looking at him, Cao Yucang also looked back, he was estimating how much combat power the other party had left.
After a while, Cao Yucang said slowly:
"Commander Yan, what are your plans next?"
Yan Hongzheng turned his eyes to look at his remnants, and after a moment of thought, he replied:
"Commander Cao, the initiative is in your hands, you decide whether to continue fighting or not."
The voice was calm, the tone was indifferent, and there was no sign of fear.
Cao Yucang thought for a while and said:
"I hope you can return to Zhoushan and no longer participate in any of the next battles in Longxiao Kingdom!"
This is the condition, he can let them go, but he will never return to the mountains, if they are going to participate in the next battle for supremacy, it is better to get rid of them all now.
Of course, he actually understood in his heart that although there were very few people left on the other side, these people who could survive were all extremely profound cultivators.
Eliminating them is not that easy, and it will come at a heavy cost.
It's just that if they are unwilling to quit, such an opportunity now is indeed the best, and it is much better than meeting in the future.
After thinking about it for a while, Yan Hongzheng decided:
"With Long Chengyuan's death, even if our mission is over, we naturally have to go back."
This is Yan Hongzheng's choice, he has lost the interest to continue the remnants of this battle for world domination.
After saying that, he took the people who survived them and left gloomily.
