Chapter Ninety-Five: Eight Golden Locks
readx;
"Everyone, obey General Yao Bai's orders, don't act rashly!" it was Zou Junhao who shouted. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info he has the highest status among the children of these families, this move is to restrain these children, and the second is to take the opportunity to show his majesty.
This officer's name is Yao Kai, and he is a hundred generals in the border army of Yan State, commanding a hundred elites, so he is also called a centurion. Because all the soldiers in the border army are one out of ten, although he is nominally a hundred generals, his actual status is no different from that of a thousand commanders.
Yao Kai is a Five Realms cultivator, although he can only exert the cultivation of the Three Realms in the ruins, but because he is practicing the tactics of the army, he is practical, so his combat power is by no means comparable to that of ordinary Three Realms cultivators.
At this time, there were a total of twelve soldiers and eight children of the family on the Yan army's side, plus Yao Kai, who was the commander, and Li Qingchen, who joined halfway, a total of twenty-two. In terms of combat strength, these people are definitely not weak, the twelve soldiers are all elite and well-trained in the border army, and most of these children are from a family background, and their cultivation is not bad.
Moreover, in actual combat, it is by no means that the more people there are, the stronger they are, and factors such as cooperation in battle, psychological quality, and favorable time and place may affect the outcome of the battle. At this point, all the cultivators were suppressed to the Three Realms, and these Yan Army soldiers had a greater advantage over the cultivators.
"Friends in front of you, let's show up. Yao Kai held the iron knife at his waist with his right hand and looked at the dark shadow in the depths of the tree realm.
In the shadows of the trees, a group of black-clothed people gradually appeared in everyone's field of vision. Yao Kai roughly swept it and found that these black-clothed people were all dressed in black and black scarves, and they couldn't see their faces clearly, some were half-squatting on trees, some were hiding in the shadows, and some stood up. Although the positions were different, these twelve black-clothed people faintly formed a certain formation, which looked full of flaws, but it seemed that there was no leakage.
Yao Kai couldn't see the subtlety of this, but his long-term intuition told him that these people were by no means simple, and if they attacked rashly, they would definitely suffer a big loss.
"Which path are you on, friends, and I don't know what your intentions are?" asked Yao Kai.
The black-clothed man in the shadow in front of Yao Kai's right coughed twice, and said hoarsely: "Nameless, not enough to worry about." I just want you to take a break here. ”
Yao Kai's brows furrowed slightly, these people neither revealed their true identities nor launched a surprise attack, obviously instructed by some people to drag Yan Jun and his party back. Although they don't know their true purpose, they are openly enemies of the Yan Kingdom, and their intentions are definitely not small.
On the other side, Su Qi and his party were also paying close attention to their every move ahead.
"The situation of the Yan army is not good. Wang Li frowned and said.
"What do you say?" asked Zhao Ying.
"It's not clear where these people came from, but it's clear that they're prepared. If I'm not mistaken, they are now setting up a set of formations, the purpose of which is to stop the Yan army and prevent them from continuing to go deeper. Wang Li said.
"Formation?" Su Qi was a little surprised.
"Hmm. Wang Li nodded, picked up a few stones and branches on the ground, and posed for a simple gossip pattern.
"There are twelve in the light, and there should be four more in the dark. In teams of two, six bright and two dark. Wang Li explained.
"Eight Golden Locks?" Su Qi was very surprised.
In this era, although the eight golden locks are relatively simple and do not have so many changes, they are very tricky once encountered. Although cultivators were prevalent in this era, the formation method had always been a field that very few top cultivators could dabble in. Moreover, gossip belongs to the Taoist lineage, belongs to the side door, and there are very few people who can get the inheritance. What's more, if you want to exert the power of the formation, you must go through decades of repeated practice, and you can't make mistakes in any link.
Because the conditions are harsh, they are scarce, and because they are scarce, people who know how to break the formation are even rarer. Yao Kai has been in the army all the year round, and it is impossible for him to come into contact with this kind of formation that Wen Xiu has not necessarily heard of.
"Is this Eight Gates Golden Lock Array very powerful?" asked Zhu Xiao.
"It's hard to say. Wang Li frowned and said, "The power of the formation depends on the cultivator under command, the more proficient the cultivator is and the closer the formation is coordinated, the more powerful the formation will be." The terrifying thing about the formation is that there is no upper limit to its power. Moreover, these eight golden locks are originally partial door formations, and since King Wen played Zhou Yi, only Taoism is left in the in-depth study of gossip. ”
"So, is there a way to crack it?" Zhu Xiao asked.
Wang Li shook his head: "I'm not a Taoist, and I've only seen this Eight Gates Golden Lock Array in the teacher's book, so I can talk about it, but if I really want to break the formation, I can't do anything." ”
"In that case, we will not move. Zhao Ying said, "Although I don't know what the other party's plans are, most of them are coming for the Yan army, and we don't need to wade into this troubled water now, let's wait and see what happens." ”
"The Yan army will inevitably rush into battle, and when the time comes, when they fight to defeat both, we will reap the benefits. Zhu Xiao said.
"Well, that's all there is to it. Wang Li nodded.
At this moment, Su Qi shook his head: "No, we must rush immediately." ”
"Why?" Zhao Ying said in surprise, "Isn't it self-exposing to rush into battle now?"
Su Qi shook his head slightly: "You don't know." The Eight Gates Golden Lock is definitely not a formation that can be broken by brute force. Now that everyone's cultivation is suppressed in the Three Realms, the effectiveness of the formation will be infinitely magnified. If you want to break the formation, you must at least attack with two troops, one positive and one strange, and it is absolutely impossible for one team to break through the array. It is impossible for us to break the formation alone, and we must borrow the opportunity of the Yan army to charge the formation. ”
"Do you know this formation?" Zhao Ying said in surprise. Among the group, Wang Li was the most knowledgeable, and even he had only heard of this formation, how could Su Qi understand the method of breaking the formation?
What everyone doesn't know is that Su Qi is a Confucian and Taoist cultivator, and he has been inherited by Zhuang Zhou, so he is familiar with Taoist doctrine. What's more, he is a rune master, so it is not surprising that his understanding of the formation is beyond that of ordinary people.
"However, even if we break this formation with Yan Jun, what good will it do us?" asked Zhu Xiao.
"If we sit idly by, we can save ourselves. But if you can't break it, it means we can't move on. These people are scheming and must have a big plan, which shows that there must be some very rare treasures in the ruins. Will you be willing?" asked Su Qi.
At this question, several people groaned. After all, they entered the ruins to obtain the inheritance, and they were all cultivators, if they retreated in the face of difficulties, they would not dare to take any risks, and what would they say about breaking the realm?
"I'm going anyway, so if you want to go, come along. Su Qi's tone seemed to be indifferent, but everyone read it with an extremely resolute meaning.
"Okay! Then it's decided, let's rush together!" Zhao Ying gritted his teeth and said.
