Chapter Thirty-Four: Life is Impermanent, War is Impermanent
When Zhang Qiuxuan raised his head to look at the sky, Li Zhenshi lowered his head.
At this moment, he remembered many things.
He thought that when he was young, after becoming a cultivator, he walked into Zhongzhou City with the idea that a good man would achieve a career.
In Zhongzhou City, he met a young man who was the same age as himself and had a similar cultivation, and then they joined a gang in Zhongzhou City together, fought a lot together, became friends, and then a lot of things happened, and finally entered the palace alone, became the prince's teacher, and later became the teacher of Emperor Yunqin.
And he followed the eldest brother of the first gang... The big brother of the gang sat behind the curtain, but he gradually distanced himself from the young man who had fought with him back then.
The young man back then was Zhang Qiuxuan in front of him now.
When Li Zhenshi lowered his head and recalled the moment of the past, he seemed to have returned to the past, back to the time when Yunqin was not established, Zhongzhou City was only a fraction of the size of the present, but it was even more mixed than now, he followed his eldest brother and rushed to kill other powerful gangs in the long alley.
He remembered that it was a tragic one, and in the end only four of them survived.
Li Zhenshi smiled, laughing at the impermanence of life. He laughed at himself... laughing at the time when the cultivation was very low, very ordinary in Zhongzhou City, often standing under the eaves of the porch with a coarse porcelain bowl to eat noodles, peeking at the handsome woman in the past, the third-rate figure in Zhongzhou City, will eventually become the pillar of Yun Qin with the eldest brother he followed, and become one of the people who established the huge empire and governed the huge empire.
He laughed at Zhang Qiuxuan, who was also one of the four people who survived under countless swords and axes in the long alley, but at this moment, he became an opponent in the long alley.
He smiled, his nose smelling the blood in the alley.
The long green grass that grew from the cracks in the stones around him was like a hard sword, directly broken, and sharpened outward, and the yellow sand and dust on the ground and in the cracks of the stones formed a shrinking tide at a speed that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, and expanded sharply outward.
His beard and hair were all open, his clothes were flying outward, and he exuded a domineering aura of killing gods and ghosts, as if he was going to crush the entire Prajna corridor!
Zhang Qiuxuan just sat on the horse, motionless, and the breath on his body did not change in the slightest.
At the top of the Prajna corridor, in some heavily weathered caves, there was a sound of wind gushing out.
In an ordinary canyon, any cultivator and army must always worry about ambushes from both sides of the canyon, but this corridor is extremely wide, large rolling logs and rocks cannot be smashed in the middle, and there are many caves on both sides to dodge, so at this moment, although most of the people on the Jiang family's side have raised their heads vigilantly to look at the cliffs on both sides, even those ordinary elite soldiers are not very worried.
These ordinary elite sergeants also knew very well that no matter which of the two parties represented Yun Qin at the moment, it was obvious that if Zhang Qiuxuan's side won, Zhang Qiuxuan would definitely not leave them alive. Naturally, they have no choice but to fight to the death.
......
Ordinary sergeants were ready to dodge arrows and crossbow arrows and other ordnance, but the scattered Jiang family cultivators behind Li Zhenshi were just waiting coldly, they were not ordinary powerhouses, so naturally they didn't need to be afraid of ordinary ordnance, but in less than a breath, most of their pupils contracted violently.
No arrows or crossbow arrows fell.
What fell was just a cold metal figure... This is a cultivator who wears the heavy armor of a soul soldier.
The heavy armor of the soul soldiers is extremely heavy, and jumping from a high place, the cultivators inside can't withstand their own impact at all... Even if the armor is lined with elastic steel, at the moment it hits the ground, some of the elastic steel that supports it will break, and then the bones of the cultivators inside will break, and the flesh and skin will be torn. Yun Qin didn't have any kind of soul soldier heavy armor that could make people jump off the city wall and smash directly into the enemy's army.
However, at this moment, what these cultivators were wearing was not any kind of heavy armor from Yun Qin, what they were wearing was armor full of muscle and bone texture, with a royal blue brilliance flowing like blood on the black and gold surface.
This armor is completely closed, and even the eyes are sealed with two transparent white crystals, which are also shining with white light at the moment.
Arms, elbows, knees, legs... All of them have wing-shaped blades, the back of their helmets, and their hair is braided, all of which are royal blue blades.
The most important thing is that this heavy armor has a long, black and dark gold metal cloak on its body, and the runes on it are all shining.
This is the Heavenly Demon Heavy Armor!
The strongest heavy armor of Da Mang so far, a killing weapon that only cultivators above the national rank can make envoys!
Xu Tianwang's face was still cold, but the shock in his eyes was a little thicker.
The Jiang family's intelligence is far more informed and accurate than the other old men behind the curtain, originally Yun Qin's intelligence agency, most of it was in the hands of the Jiang family, long before Mu Shenyun met Lin Xi, the Jiang family had already found out that the emperor's people were engaged in some shady arms transactions with Da Mang, including the Heavenly Demon Heavy Armor.
However, the Heavenly Demon Heavy Armor is extremely rare even in the entire Damang, firstly, because of the scarcity of materials and the difficulty of production, there are not many Infernal Mountains delivered to the Damang military, and the other reason is that cultivators above the rank of national scholar are very rare everywhere.
Since the Southern Expedition, in the entire course of the war, there have not been more than twenty generals in the Da Mang army wearing the heavy armor of the Heavenly Demons.
In the Jiang family's speculation, the number of Heavenly Demon Heavy Armor that the emperor possessed would not be too much.
However, at this moment, the metal figures swept down from the sky were more than forty!
......
An official wearing the official robe of the Zhengwu Division's Military Intelligence Department, with a red jade belt at his waist, stretched out his hand and pulled out a long knife with a jasper color, and in the face of a Heavenly Demon Heavy Armor that was sharply swept towards him, his instinct was to slash it with a knife.
Because he is a cultivator of the Great Power Master level.
The cultivators of the Great Power Master Rank are already extremely powerful existences in this world, and characters like the painters have made Yun Qin's Criminal Division and the military very helpless in the past many years, and even at the request of Wenren Cangyue, the entire Great Mang Dynasty will kill Lin Xi, and among the hundreds of Great Mang cultivators who besieged and killed Lin Xi, there are not many cultivators of the Great Country Master Rank.
Strong strength will naturally create strong confidence, so generally speaking, cultivators who have cultivated to the level of a great master will naturally have a kind of great grandmaster-like bearing.
It's like a person who has been in a high position for a long time will naturally have a majestic bearing.
The first instinctive reaction of this MI officer stemmed from the confidence that his own cultivation had cultivated over a long period of time.
However, before he could slash his sword, his faith was in vain.
The Heavenly Demon Heavy Armor carried not only the opponent's own strength, but also the opponent's momentum flying down from a high place.
In an instant, just the oncoming wind blew him with a feeling of unstable footing.
So he didn't dare to use the knife, and dodged in horror.
He dodged the sharp blades on the hands and feet of the oncoming Heavenly Demon Heavy Armor, but the edge of the cloak behind this Heavenly Demon Heavy Armor cut through his body.
The metal cloak made of Daredevil gold is also like an extremely thin, extremely sharp soul soldier.
This Yun Qin's Zheng Sanpin master, his whole body suddenly separated from his waist, he screamed in horror, the jasper long knife fell from his hand, his hands wanted to grab his body, but no matter how he grabbed it, the lower half of his body was still separated from his body.
At this moment, this frightened member of the Military Intelligence Department was the third rank of the department, and he suddenly reacted to many things...... Originally, in the eyes of him and many people, Emperor Yunqin's eldest grandson Jinse was a ridiculous emperor, like a child who couldn't get candy and would only be useless and angry. But at this moment, he knew that it was himself who was ridiculous.
Heavenly Demon Heavy Armor is rare... Moreover, not all cultivators can wear it, more than forty cultivators above the rank of national scholars, placed in any place, are terrifying forces, and what is even more terrifying is that this power is still invisible, or undiscovered by the emperor, not a power on the surface.
That emperor, who is an idiot and ridiculous in the eyes of many people, has secretly accumulated such a powerful force over the years!
......
A metal heavenly demon with a cloak ploughed through the Jiang family array, plowing out deep waves of blood.
Among all the cultivators and sergeants facing these Heavenly Demon Heavy Armor, only two of them were able to stop the assassination of the Heavenly Demon Heavy Armor that rushed down from the sky.
Li Zhenshi raised his head, and his right hand moved slightly, as if waving his sleeve.
In the sleeves of his coat, it was as if countless clouds rushed out.
A handleless, very short, but unusually thick black flying sword appeared between heaven and earth.
I only heard a crackling sound.
The metal cloak behind the Heavenly Demon Heavy Armor that rushed towards him was sliced open by this flying sword, and the thick flying sword continued to sweep and slapped on the back of this Heavenly Demon Heavy Armor.
There was a loud bang.
The heavy metal body suddenly flew higher, flying high above his head and falling heavily to the ground.
At the same time, Xu Tianwang snatched a crimson python-patterned steel whip from one of the people beside him.
The crimson steel whip instantly shook straight under the majestic force, like a burning spear, and slammed into the chest of the Heavenly Demon Heavy Armor that was rushing down against him.
The heavy armor of the soul soldier made a loud sound, like a boulder thrown by a catapult, flying sideways for an unknown number of steps, crashing into a cave, crashing into one of the half-weathered stone Buddha statues, countless gravel smashed out, and was embedded in it. (To be continued)
