Chapter 184: Breaking Through the Formation, Refining Qi at the Ninth Layer!
The million-strong army marched out of Yongcheng and quickly marched westward.
Everywhere he passed, the entire Guannan Province had already learned the news that Fan Zongzhang was killed by the emperor in Guannan Jiedu, and immediately looked at the wind.
What surprised the Western Expedition army even more was that some of the pass towns they passed through had been destroyed at this time.
Several Xiongguan, which was originally famous all over the world, turned into a dead city that was either covered with forests and white bones, or covered with blood-colored vermilions!
Obviously, this is all the handiwork of those extraterrestrial demons.
Most of the surviving people were terrified, and they had been frightened by the cruel methods of the demons.
After hearing that the emperor had personally used his body as bait to fight against those demons alone, these survivors immediately kowtowed in the direction of the capital, begging the emperor who had never met to avenge them.
It's just that this kind of destroyed town is still a minority after all, and a few days later, the million-strong army has left Guannan Road and entered the Longyou Road next to it, and encountered a hard bone - Licheng, where the Licheng Wang clan, one of the nine surnames and ten clans, is located!
Millions of troops arrived under Licheng one after another, and people neighed and horses roared, and there was a commotion.
Ji Yunpeng squinted his eyes and looked at the tall city walls of Licheng in front of him, and saw that the scale and defense of Licheng were only slightly weaker than the capital.
Among the nine surnames and ten clans, there are two branches of the Wang surname, Licheng Wang and Nanling Wang, of which the Licheng Wang is the most powerful.
This Licheng has been operated by the Licheng Wang family for at least 400 years, and it can be called an impregnable wall.
Even in the former Lingdi Rebellion, Longyou Dao Licheng was a rare place of peace.
It shows the means of the Licheng Wang clan.
For the arrival of this million western expeditionary troops, the Licheng Wang clan has long been prepared.
After all, the army of millions is moving forward, no matter how fast you think about it, it won't go anywhere, if the nine surnames and ten clans and the Tianxia Domain have not reacted so far, it would be strange.
At this time, hundreds of thousands of troops supported by various feudal towns had been gathered, and there were 50,000 elite soldiers in each of the three Wubao walled cities not far away, with a total of 800,000 elite soldiers.
The three Wubao walled cities not far from Licheng, the stars and the moon, and the Licheng are horns between each other, which is also the reason why Licheng can stand for hundreds of years and has never been breached.
Once a great enemy comes to attack Licheng, the reinforcements in the three Wu fort walled cities can immediately go out of the city to rescue and attack the enemy's flank.
After the enemy army is attracted, the main force in the city can directly go out of the city to cover and kill, and the enemy army will inevitably be defeated.
On the city wall, Wang Anye, the envoy of Longyou Dao and the current head of the Licheng Wang family, looked at the millions of troops gradually gathering below, and his face was awe-inspiring.
The three martial saints led a million coalition troops to the east to conquer Emperor Shunlong's puppet court, and the millions of coalition troops surrendered, followed by the loss of Yongcheng, he already knew all these things.
Even the Emperor Shunlong was chased and killed by the Outer Heaven Immortals a few days ago and fled into the air, he already knew about it.
Facing the million-dollar army of the Western Expedition commanded by Ji Yunpeng and others in front of him, he did not have the slightest panic in his heart.
These chaotic armies can only rely on Emperor Shunlong, and now that the puppet emperor Li Yun has been hunted down and killed by a group of immortals, life and death are unpredictable, and this so-called million-dollar army of the Western Expedition is naturally not a climate.
And as far as he knew, the nine surnames and ten families in the Xijing Imperial Court, including their Licheng royal family, had already sent their own immortals to worship and contact those immortals who came down from the heavens outside the territory.
These offerings are also legendary immortal cultivators, and many of them are known as half-immortals, and their means are indeed clever.
When they get in touch with those immortals who descended from the sky, then everyone will be a family, and under the same hatred, the puppet emperor Li Yun will only have a dead end.
Anyway, the nine surnames and ten clans have always cooperated with the strong and the immortals descended from the sky, wouldn't that be better?
As for the million Western Expeditionary Army below, if they want to break through Licheng, it is impossible for them to do so in ten or eight years.
For hundreds of years, I don't know how many enemy troops have returned under the city, not less than the so-called Western Expeditionary Army.
"City Lord, this puppet emperor Li Yun is really ridiculous, he is already unable to protect himself, and he dares to carry out any expedition to the west, these soldiers under him are a little stupid and loyal."
One of the strategists next to him shook the feather fan in his hand and said with a smile.
Another strategist looked mocking and said:
"The guards are just going to the army, but most of his so-called Western Expeditionary Army are the 36th Route Alliance Army of the Eastern Expedition a few days ago, and I don't know what kind of demon method Li Yun used, and he actually recruited these soldiers to be safe, which is really hateful."
Wang Anye said indifferently:
"These people who betray the Lord and seek glory, when the rebel army is defeated, they will all be killed, so as not to insult my name of nine surnames and ten clans."
In his opinion, without Li Yun's control, this so-called Western Expeditionary Army will definitely be defeated under Licheng!
It's just a matter of time.
After a pause, Wang Anye continued:
"Deliver the news to the three Wu forts, hold the city gate tightly, hold out for a month, exhaust the sharp energy of the western expeditionary army, and let the soldiers defending the city prepare the wooden rolling stones and gold juice, as long as this thief army dares to attack the city, they must let them fill it with their lives."
The surrounding generals immediately responded in unison.
The corners of Wang Anye's mouth raised slightly, glanced at the people around him, and said:
"I'm going to listen to the music, ordinary military affairs, don't bother me."
In his opinion, it was simply impossible for the so-called Western Expeditionary Army to break through the impregnable Licheng.
At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the movements of Ji Yunpeng and the others below, and couldn't help but be curious:
"What's that? Siege wood? ”
I saw that in the military array below, Ji Yunpeng and other generals had a cannon in their hands, and their fronts were indifferently lined up under the walls of this city.
Behind them, dozens of artillery pieces had lost their cannons and were aimed at Licheng in front of them.
The skilled craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry in the capital worked overtime every day to develop artillery according to the emperor's ideas, and at this time it was already the second generation of artillery equipped with rifling and flowering shells.
Then, under Wang Anye's puzzled gaze, the people below lit the fuse of the cannon.
……
"Catch him!"
"Don't let him escape!"
"Bone Forest Secret Technique!"
"Blood Spirit Carry!"
"Yin Thunder Lotus Blossom Technique!"
To the north of the Martial Kingdom, in a desert, dozens of streamers were like the same meteors, constantly speeding through mid-air, and occasionally some brilliant magic lights shone brightly.
It was the dozens of Immortal Cultivators of the Chaotic Sword Immortal Alliance who came to the Great Wilderness to hunt Li Yun.
And at the front of this hunting team, that bright white figure is Li Yun who is stepping on a flying sword!
It has been a few days since he left Yongcheng, and he has been fleeing everywhere, occasionally turning back to fight with his pursuers and casting a few spells.
It's just that there are too many people on the other side, and many of them have the inheritance hole cards of the seniors in the door, and they have the killing moves of the foundation building period and the Jindan period, so that although Li Yun often injures the pursuers behind him, it is difficult to completely kill them.
On the contrary, because he himself fought against the pursuers, he fell into the attack several times and suffered a lot of injuries.
But what made these chasing soldiers led by Yue Han angry was that this Li Yun was obviously in the great wilderness where his spiritual energy was exhausted, and he was constantly being hunted down, and the spiritual power in his body had not been exhausted, but gradually became more and more powerful!
At this time, they had been introduced into the desert by Li Yun for a full day, and at the beginning, they could still find some villages, suck some raw blood to temporarily restore their spiritual power, and after entering the depths of this desert, there was not even a ghost shadow within a radius of a hundred miles, and the spiritual power in the bodies of these pursuers was also declining rapidly.
And this Li Yun is obviously taking them in circles!
Fortunately, everyone is considered an elite disciple among the six great immortal sects, and they have quickly found a way to defeat the enemy.
Give somebody a taste of his own medicine!
Li Yun's sword light fled, skimming over a withered poplar forest that had passed yesterday.
At this moment, the dead trees in the poplar forest suddenly turned into pieces of white bones, becoming a gloomy bone forest, releasing a violent suction, sucking Li Yun's figure suddenly.
Now is the time!
Yue Han's face was hideous, the blood sword in his hand was waved, in front of him, Bai Sheng of the Bone Forest Immortal Sect had already taken the lead in rushing in front of Li Yun, the spiritual power of the ninth layer of qi refining surged, and he carried a white bone sword in each hand, slashing towards Li Yun!
At the same time, seven or eight rays of light appeared on Li Yun's side, either blades, or yin poison spells, or strange spells, attacking him from all directions!
Finally caught this big fish!
Everyone's faces were full of ecstasy, and Yue Han, who was far away, was anxious in his eyes at this time, could he miss this opportunity and cheapen the people in the outer door?
Suddenly, he saw Li Yun grinning in the encirclement, and the spiritual power in his body suddenly skyrocketed, forming a shock wave that blasted in all directions, blocking one attack after another, leaving everyone around him stunned.
Breakthrough in the formation, ninth layer of qi refining!?
