Zhou Yang stayed in the mountains for a while, and practiced martial arts on weekdays, and sometimes talked with Mao Huai and Mao Liang. In his free time, he also sees how Mao Liang trains his subordinates.

A hundred guards of the black iron broadsword, sharpening their swords and refining their edges. Everyone's spirit and momentum have accumulated and gradually improved in the past few days of hard training, and it has reached the best time.

In the team of thousands of people, it is also the most eye-catching existence, and people's eyes can be seen with a sweep of the obvious difference. Knowing that this is the elite of the elite of Zhenlu Castle. It is also a team that relies on them to prop up the façade.

In fact, the guards of the Black Iron Broadsword also put the most effort. To fight with such a heavy weapon, the daily consumption of body nutrition must be met with meat. Otherwise, you won't be able to keep up with this training intensity.

As the saying goes, as long as it is related to martial arts, the consumption cannot be saved. Even if you don't go to the mainstream cultivation path, if you want to make these people's bodies a little stronger, you can't eat green vegetables and white rice. The weapons related to it, all kinds of things, and there will be more costs in the future.

Wielding a black iron broadsword, dozens of pounds of things, hundreds or thousands of times, people are tired, and it is not so easy for ordinary people.

Elite soldiers are not easy to train.

Eating meat is very rare here. In order to ensure that the materials were sufficient, Maohuai had to arrange for people to cultivate the narrow terraces on the mountain, and there was still a shortage of food, not to mention meat. This part is not a small expense. It can be said that the life is tight, and it is just enough to maintain. After all, there are more than 5,000 people in Zhenlu Fort, up and down, not to mention fighting, first of all, to ensure that people eat and chew.

But finally trained a decent team, and it was not in vain.

That riding shooting, Zhou Yang has tried it himself, people on horseback, as if they are treading waves, with Zhou Yang's strength, it is not affected by bumps.

The time is approaching, and the atmosphere in the entire town of Heron Fort is becoming more and more solemn and tense, and those cavalry, infantry, big bows, and third-level magic arrow teams are all gearing up.

It can be said that the family of Zhenlubao has moved out to prepare for the war.

These people are not the same as the ordinary bandits who occupy the mountains as kings, they all have great ambitions. It is completely on par with army building. Compared with the legionnaires of the Xuanling Country, it is actually not much worse, and what is missing may be a flag to correct the name.

There are tens of thousands of such manpower. The town of Heron Fort is just one of them.

Maohuai re-armed, and added manpower to the key trails in the mountains. The people in the fort put down the farming and production in their hands for the time being, turned over their horses, put on armor and soldiers, became combatable people, and all of them were in operation.

At this time, it is full of the meaning that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings.

Zhou Yang could see on the mountain that in a slightly farther place, a team of people, like a thin line of black insects, jumped around on the ground, moving back and forth, beginning to spread out and close, clean up and search, and stake the ground. The two camps, each with more than 1,000 people, were at the foot of the mountain, and they had fallen down and entrenched.

Those who are the people of Chihong Fort and Beipan Fort are here, preparing in advance.

At a moment like this, it is the forces that negotiate, and it is the business of the entire force to send troops and money and people, and they can be regarded as having a huge momentum, and they dare not be shabby and embarrassed.

With more than 2,000 elite soldiers from the other side, Mao Huai also had to think more, beware of bad things, and don't be attacked by betrayal of Xinyi, so he strengthened his defense.

Before the official blood alliance, they were all opponents, not allies. There is no morality to speak of.

Zhou Yang walked into the hall and saw the little kid castle owner playing on the side, all kinds of toys, the ground was full of strange objects, playing happily, not affected by the atmosphere at all, and someone took care of him, he was completely a wealthy son of a big family. It can be seen that Mao Huai dotes on him on weekdays.

Mao Liang had a map in front of him, which was indicated by a small flag. Now that the two parties have come to the foot of the mountain, they have to report to him if there is a little trouble, especially since the other party cannot raise the flag and go up the mountain. This kind of superficial mistake, he must be careful not to make.

"Great Dharma Protector! I see that the camps of the people of the two forts have been set up! The time to discuss the alliance is almost here!" Zhou Yang said more casually.

Mao Huai put the things in his hand down: "That's right, when I went to invite them, both sides raised the matter of martial arts. I happened to be short of people here, and I wanted Mao Liang to go there, but I was lucky to meet Brother Zhou Yang. In terms of the combat strength of the warriors, there are only five cities that are not lacking, and the people who are looking for them are coming! In our mountainous lands, even the supplies are in short supply, and there are no warriors left, this time you can promise to help, I am really grateful!"

Martial arts cultivation, qi and blood resources are scarce, and powerful martial arts cheats and skills are also needed. A hilltop fort that is really unattractive. If you want to be a guest, you have to go to the city, a place where there are many people and great power. The rivers and lakes are so big, there are countless masters, but they have not reached a place where there are warriors everywhere.

Zhenlu Fort just wants to worship warriors to be guests, and there are no attractive things, gold and silver treasures, which are completely useless.

Zhou Yang said: "It's all fate! I'm also having a good time here! I learned about the actual situation here. If the Three Banners Alliance is formed, will it be able to pull people over to the Xianqian Palace and fight with all forces?"

The purpose of the battle is to decide the overlord and get the opportunity to enter the Xianqian Palace, but what he actually thinks about is the illusory glimmer of hope and find the treasure house of Xianqian. It's not just symbolic.

The main family controls the first palace, with a high degree of centralization of power and wealth. Basically, it is only in and out, it is all accumulation, and I am afraid that the treasury of the four countries does not have such a huge collection.

A small family, whose house was raided, was searched for an astonishing amount of things, just gold and silver currency, tens of millions at every turn, and a few percent of the national treasury. As long as there is a treasure trove of legends, this thought will not be extinguished.

The treasure house, the power, the construction of the palace, thinking about the thousands of generations, the difference is that the temple recognizes, the emperor edict, can establish the country's legal system.

The power of building the palace is more than the battle between the sects and the Taoist system, because the ambition is extremely cruel and far-reaching.

"Those two forces, each with a new warrior. I haven't figured out the details yet, but it seems to be all sword cultivation!" Mao Huai said the information. "There should be more warriors going to the Five Cities, all of whom want to fish in troubled waters. It's also generally much stronger, and it won't settle down casually, and it's hard to recruit! I don't know who chooses Chihong Fort and Beipan Fort! Don't be a powerful person with a separate plan!"

"Sword cultivation?" Zhou Yang said in a deep voice: "Whether it is a loose cultivator, or a disciple of a family or sect, as long as it is a sword cultivator. More or less all of them are affected by those sword factions! Whether there are sword factions or not, the Burning Sun Sword Sect is one of the best. There are several other sword sects, all of which have different paths. As long as you are a sword cultivator, you are good at killing! I like actual combat kung fu the most! This is interesting!"

When Zhou Yang heard the news of his opponent, he was very interested, because he had very few opportunities to fight with Jian Xiu.

The rules of the rivers and lakes, there are contradictions, and major matters are all set in the ring for competition. Now the three hilltop forts are also preparing to use this scheme.

Under the watchful eye of the public, the competition between the two sides, as long as there is a result, it is determined.

This approach is recognized by various sects, families, and local local gangs.

If one person is strong, it can completely determine the development of major events. After all, like Qi Dou, he came directly and made a thousand holes, and he would do it desperately and completely tear his face.

To this extent, the remedy cannot be remedied, it is to block the road, and there is no important force interest, so they will fight to the death and will not stop.

In this case, the maximum number of people who die in the single digits of the competition is a world of difference. There is also a great opportunity to compromise and back down and turn the situation back in the future. Typical use of small efforts to do big things.

The various rules in the rivers and lakes are also full of wisdom.

As for those sheng flags waving and hunting smoke and dust, it is a bluff. No matter how many people come, they are just scared and will not really do it.

Those who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes, but those who wear shoes are afraid of being barefoot. A martial artist like Zhou Yang has a headache. Alone, without a trace, some of them have some headless public cases, and there are no clues, which shows that it is difficult. Those who are bold and reckless, break into big households, steal treasure troves, do whatever they want, and if they don't take care of it, the restraint will be small. Whether you abide by the rules and conventions of the rivers and lakes also depends on your character.

Zhou Yang is not competing for himself this time, but with Mao Huai, and the meaning is different.

At that moment, the two made an appointment with each other, and Zhou Yang stopped bothering Mao Huai and walked out.

Back in the room, Zhou Yang took out the strange mirror from the storage bracelet. In contrast, as soon as the power of qi and blood in the whole body swam, a vague figure in the mirror began to become transparent, little by little, like paper dyed with ink, and the bones of each piece slowly emerged from the inside of the body.

Looking at it this way, the humanoid skeleton, which is basically formed, is only a small mass, which has not yet been illuminated. There are about two or three bones in the shadow area.

Strange mirror comparison, the condensation of two hundred bones in the whole body, where there is a lack of it, where it is not practiced, Zhou Yang can see it!

If the two hundred bones are condensed and perfect, it will be the perfect point in the record. With this kind of inner condensation depth, only a few of a hundred martial artists can practice! Reaching the bottleneck of the realm, the peak of the second layer of the Qi and Blood Realm!

If you want to break through again, the sun and the moon will fluctuate, and the understanding of the four seasons of qi and blood will not be enough. But in the realm of the third layer, there is only a direction and no clue, and it is still confused, like seeing flowers in the fog, vague.

At present, Zhou Yang is concentrating on overcoming the last difficulty, and it is important to complete the cultivation and build a solid foundation. At the peak of his inner strength, his strength exploded, and his long endurance in battle will undoubtedly improve a little more. On the eve of the competition with those two sword cultivators, there was a little progress, and it was all good.

Seeing the scene in the mirror, Zhou Yang could only sigh: "This mirror is amazing!

He thought about it, took out the half-demon bones again, and checked them in front of the mirror, and what was reflected inside was the complete shape, and it didn't need the power of qi and blood to stimulate it. This half-demon skeleton has long been trained thoroughly, and the grade is even higher than half a layer.

In the magical mirror, Zhou Yang's scene is a faint fog like an ink painting. This half-demon bone is the concrete of a light sketch. This mirror can be traded, and the previous owner naturally looked at it in various attempts. At present, Zhou Yang can only compare with each other, and he also does not know other roles.
