Emperor Tianxing dispatched troops in Luojing, and Zhao Yan was also waiting in Liangzhou City.

When the Great Qi monks gathered on a large scale in the Northwest Frontier, she strictly followed Gu Xu's instructions and did not attack rashly, but opened a large array, contracted the defensive line, and tried to delay time.

She knew that in this world of extraordinary power, the outcome of the war was often decided by the top few cultivators.

The strong saints can usually only be checked and balanced by the strong saints, and when they face the ordinary monks and mortal armies, they are often one-sided slaughter.

Of course, ordinary armies are not useless.

Just like modern warfare, although it has missiles and nuclear weapons, it also needs to rely on the army to complete the occupation of the region.

Conquer the city, maintain the large protective array, and supply logistics...... It also needs to be done by a large number of low- and middle-level monks and ordinary people.

Especially when the saints on both sides did not make a move, the cultivators of the middle and low realms played a decisive role.

Zhao Yan has been trained in the border army of the Great Qi Dynasty for many years, and has led the team into the wasteland many times, and has fiercely clashed with the northwest barbarians, and has made a lot of military achievements, and has rich experience in commanding operations.

Under her command, the monks quickly formed a queue, and the true elements gathered together, like a trickle, into a surging river, and then poured into the large moat array.

Liangzhou, Linqiang, Zhaowu, Zhangye...... There is a pillar of light above each of the six cities in the northwest that rises to the sky, penetrating into the sky, and then spreads out like a quadrangle, merging into an overwhelming golden light curtain, enveloping the six cities in the northwest like a bubble, like a round of golden sun floating on the surface.

The troops sent by the Great Qi Dynasty were kept out.

But they weren't surprised. In their daily training, they have rehearsed this siege situation countless times.

I saw that the Qi army also lined up, and the true elements of the monks, the power of the blood and blood of the mortal soldiers, gathered together in the air, turned into a golden dragon with teeth and claws, unfolded its magnificent posture, and violently slammed towards the golden light shield of the six cities in the northwest.

The six cities in the northwest have just risen, and their heritage is far inferior to that of Daqi. Although there was more than one saint and a true monarch powerhouse, the number of middle and low-level monks and armies was far inferior to that of Great Qi.

Normally, this protective array would definitely not be able to withstand the full force of the siege array.

But the strange thing is that today, the five-clawed golden dragon phantom slammed into the city protection array several times in a row, and the city protection array only became slightly dim, and did not collapse instantly as expected.

"There is something wrong with the rebels' formation," a young man in a brocade robe in the Great Qi army frowned slightly and spoke, "It must be Gu Yi who has made some unreasonable changes to it."

This young man is Xiao Shangyuan, the eldest prince of the Great Qi Dynasty. In this campaign against the rebels in the northwest, he took the initiative to ask Ying to serve as the commander of the vanguard army of the Great Qi.

A few months ago, when the Luoshui Conference had just ended, Gu Xu went from the leader of the much-anticipated conference to a traitorous traitor wanted by the whole country. At that time, Xiao Shangyuan was ordered to go to Qingyao Mountain to arrest Gu Xu.

He originally thought that it would be a sure thing for himself in the fifth realm, with Fan Cheng in the sixth realm, to arrest a Gu Xu in the fourth realm.

Unexpectedly, the monks wearing opera masks of the "Qing Ming" organization suddenly appeared and rescued Gu Xu.

The prey in his hands slipped away from under his nose.

Xiao Shangyuan was worried about this.

Now that his father is out of the customs and the whole country is rebelling, he desperately hopes to seize this opportunity to prove his ability in front of his father and "Tai Ah Jian" and become the successor to the throne.

"Your Highness, Gu Yi has used some cunning tricks to link this Great Array of City Protection with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and we are now commanding the army to attack the Great Array, which is almost equivalent to confronting the Dao of Heaven."

Hearing Xiao Shangyuan's words, the white-haired old man Fan Cheng opened his mouth to explain.

"Connecting with the Heavenly Dao?" Xiao Shangyuan looked a little surprised, "He, a Sixth Realm cultivator, actually has such great ability?"

In Xiao Shangyuan's cognition, the power that ordinary monks can use is often limited to themselves; Even if it's a Sixth Realm monk, it's only

can indirectly pass through the law phase and use the power of the Great Dao in a limited way; Only when you reach the realm of a saint or above can you truly use the power of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth for your own use. This is also the reason why a strong saint can usually crush a Sixth Realm cultivator with ease.

"If it weren't for the fact that he could do something that ordinary people couldn't," Fan Cheng sighed, "his subordinates wouldn't have touted him as a reincarnated immortal every day."

In the recent period, in order to prevent people's hearts from being shaken, the Daqi Imperial Court has repeatedly issued official documents to "refute rumors", claiming that "Gu Xu is the reincarnation of Emperor Ziwei" is nonsense of the thieves, and the remarks that "Taishang Haotian and Emperor Ziwei are a pair of mortal enemies" are even more nonsense and nonsense.

Qi Ting repeatedly emphasized that since the beginning of heaven and earth and the beginning of Qiankun, Taishang Haotian and Emperor Ziwei have always been two sides as one and an inseparable whole, representing day and night, and are high above and untouchable to mortals.

How is it possible to incarnate as a mortal and be born in a turbid world?

Those thieves are blasphemy!

As the most trusted confidant by the eldest prince's side, Fan Cheng naturally firmly believed in the imperial court's statement.

It's just that when he flipped through the official documents and saw all kinds of unreasonable things that frequently happened to Gu Xu, his belief would always be faintly shaken unconsciously, and he would always be unable to help but guess whether Gu Xu would really have anything to do with Emperor Ziwei.

Especially after the identity of Luo Chuan, the head of the exorcism department, was revealed.

After all, Luo Chuan has mastered the art of heavenly deduction, known as "knowing the world and penetrating the past and the present", people will always wonder if the reason why he chose to follow Gu Xu is because he really knows some unknown secrets.

"Is there a solution for Mr. Fan?" Xiao Shangyuan asked again.

Fan Cheng narrowed his eyes and stared at the formation for a while, then shook his head and said, "The True Yuan Flow of this formation is very complicated, beyond my comprehension. We can only choose violent methods and forcibly destroy it with several times the force. Well, or you can choose another way—"

"—how?" Xiao Shangyuan asked urgently.

"Ask the national teacher to help." Fan Cheng replied.

At this moment, Wang Jian, the national teacher of Great Qi, is also in the army.

Three of the five saints of Great Qi followed Gu Xu, and it was naturally impossible for the Great Qi Imperial Court not to send their own saints to contend with them.

It's just that now the two sides are in the stage of testing each other.

The sage powerhouse of the rebel army did not make a move for the time being, and the Great Qi National Teacher naturally did not act rashly.

If the true essence of a saint on one side is consumed in a large number of city protection arrays and army battle arrays, then the saints on the opposite side must be happy in their hearts.
