Chapter 45: The Battle of the Breakout (I)
"Yang'er, it seems that Fang City can't hold it here, if the big array is broken, we will immediately disperse and yearn for a breakthrough, if you can escape one by one, if you escape with your life, find a place to hide in the oasis, wait until grandpa and they come back, and then go to his old man's house, don't go to White Camel Ridge alone!"
On Jinxia Mountain, when Zhou Yangzheng, like everyone else, was shocked and lost his mind because of the news revealed by the leader of the sand bandits, the sound of his stepmother Zhou Xuanyu's divine consciousness suddenly sounded in his ears.
When he heard the rumors, he was shocked, and instantly recovered from his state of trance.
After he came back to his senses, he glanced at his stepmother Zhou Xuanyu slightly, and also quietly replied: "Godmother, since we have decided to break through and escape, I suggest that we find a place to bury the excess storage bags, so as not to be targeted as a fat sheep when we escape!"
"Okay, just do as you say. ”
Zhou Xuanyu's beautiful eyes lit up, and without any reluctance, he immediately agreed to Zhou Yang's suggestion.
Compared with their lives, money is really something outside the body, not to mention that if they really die in the hands of the bandits, the contents of the storage bag will still not be brought back to the family.
However, in order not to attract the attention of the three foundation building monks of the Chen family, these things could only be carried out quietly in secret, and they did not dare to expose their true intentions.
After confronting each other for more than half a day, one by one, the sand bandits in the Qi training period, who were also black-robed and masked, finally surrounded them from all sides of Jinxia Mountain, along with the four sand bandits of the foundation building period who flew with the sword.
So far, the number of sand bandits in the foundation building period besieging Jinxia Mountain alone has reached as many as fourteen, and the number of sand bandits in the qi training period is ten times that.
Zhou Yang noticed that almost all of these new sand bandits had multiple storage bags hanging from their waists, and some of the storage bags were stained with undried blood, apparently not long after they were taken off the dead people.
This made his heart sink, knowing that the prophecy of his stepmother Zhou Xuanyu had come true, and those scattered cultivators who went down the mountain first and thought they could escape the catastrophe were afraid that most of them died in the hands of these prepared sand bandits.
"Sure enough, the sand bandits are the sand bandits, with their greedy character of squeezing out the oil from the stones, how can they easily let go of those scattered cultivators who scattered and fled?"
Zhou Yang's heart was awe-inspiring, and he once again deeply felt the evil of the group of sand bandits.
In addition to the difference in the cultivation of these people, their actions are no different from the legendary demon monks, and it cannot be said that they are demon cultivators.
"Give it to me, use your most powerful spells, the most powerful magic weapons, all of them to greet me on that turtle shell, I want to see how long this turtle shell can last!"
Thundered!
With the order of the leader of the sand bandits on the ninth floor of the foundation building, all the sand bandits, including those in the foundation building period, all released magic weapons and spells and blasted towards the formation shield guarding Jinxia Mountain.
The colorful magic aura instantly dyed the sky above the entire Jinxia Mountain into a beautiful rainbow color.
However, this beautiful scenery is extremely deadly and dangerous in the eyes of the monks defending in Jinxia Mountain.
Because under the concentrated fire attack of many sand bandits, the formation shield guarding Jinxia Mountain had begun to shake slightly, although the shaking was not large.
But everyone knows that once the formation shield shakes, it means that the attack of the sand bandits outside has indeed had an effect, as long as this attack continues, when the spiritual veins and aura that maintain the formation shield cannot keep up with the supply, the formation will be broken.
"Kill, while the formation can still hold on, what means do you have to use them, even if you use them, you can kill one one, kill one is enough, and kill two and you will earn!"
On Jinxia Mountain, the three Chen Family Zhuji monks let out a low cry with gloomy faces, and they all released their flying swords to kill the sand bandits attacking from outside.
For high-level formations like the "Heavenly Earth Dragon Formation", the defensive shield is basically not inside the outside, and the monks outside the formation need to break the formation shield to hurt the people in the formation, but the attacks of the people in the formation can easily attack the enemy outside the formation through the shield.
Therefore, unless it is an absolute advantage in strength, immortal cultivators will never attack the enemy mountain gate or fang market that is guarded by high-level formations.
Now the sand bandits have an absolute advantage in strength, and their total number is much smaller than that of the people in Fang City, but the number of monks in the foundation building period is four or five times more than that of Fang City.
As soon as the three foundation-building monks of the Chen family released their flying swords and killed a few sand bandits in the Qi cultivation period, they were immediately blocked by the flying swords of the three foundation-building sand bandits.
On the contrary, because Zhou Yang and other ninth-level Qi cultivation cultivators were too numerous and their attacks were very scattered, even if those foundation building period sand bandits intercepted them, they could not intercept them all, but let them take the opportunity to kill and injure some Qi cultivation stage sand bandits.
Seeing this, the leader of the sand bandits who had built the ninth layer of the foundation immediately issued another order for the sand bandits in the Qi training period to retreat dozens of meters, withdraw from the attack range of the magic weapons of the Qi training period monks in the formation, and then use spells to bombard them from a distance.
The monks in Xia Fang City are uncomfortable, basically the attack range of the monk's magic weapon during the Qi training period is the range of divine consciousness release, once the magic weapon flies out of this distance, it can no longer be controlled by divine consciousness, and when the magic weapon is released, it can't be recovered, isn't it cheap for nothing?
And the spell does not have this problem, although the spell also requires the divine sense of the immortal cultivator to lock on to the target in order to launch a precise strike on the enemy, but now the formation shield outside Jinxia Mountain is as big as the target, even if the spell is released hundreds of meters away with his eyes closed, there is no possibility of not being hit.
Of course, Zhou Yang and the others could also release spells to attack the sand bandits from a distance, but when their spells were locked on without divine sense, it was impossible for them to have any effect on the agile immortal cultivators, unless it was a third-order or even fourth-order spell with a great coverage.
Not to mention that it is impossible for them to release such a high-level spell, even if someone is willing to consume the incomparably precious third-order spirit rune release spell, will the sand bandits outside in the foundation building period just watch it?
At this time, Zhou Yang only understood why the Chen family foundation building monks were willing to let those loose cultivators leave knowing that a large number of sand bandits were coming.
This is expected that even if those people stay, they will not be of much help, but will offend the scattered cultivation of the entire Fang City and bring infamy to the Chen family.
But now, no one who knows the inside story will say that the Chen family is wrong, only that those loose cultivators are short-sighted, and if they stay in Fang City, they may be able to save their lives.
Time passed slowly, and the sand bandit attacks outside Jinxia Mountain never stopped, and many sand bandits were holding spirit stones in their hands to absorb spiritual energy to replenish mana, while continuing to cast spells to attack the formation shield.
And after these people continued to attack for several hours, the layer of earthy yellow formation shield guarding Jinxia Mountain had become much thinner, and the shaking of the shield was several times stronger than before, obviously the defensive power was not as good as before.
Seeing this, the three Chen Family Foundation Cultivators on Jinxia Mountain had to order Zhou Yang and other Qi cultivation period monks to input their mana to maintain the operation of the formation.
Seeing that the Guardian Array was broken, it was already a matter of time, and non-Chen family cultivators like Zhou Yang were secretly thinking about the question of retreat, how could they be willing to contribute their mana wholeheartedly.
On the surface, they all held the spirit stone in one hand to absorb spiritual power to replenish their own mana, and put the other hand on the base of the "Heavenly Earth Dragon Array" to input mana, and they all seemed to be following orders.
But in fact, the situation is that everyone has reservations and only inputs a few points of mana into the formation, and they all want to keep their mana and use it to break through.
In this case, the formation shield was not much strengthened by the mana provided by the monk, at most, it could be delayed for a while longer.
The sand bandits outside Jinxia Mountain obviously also discovered this situation, so the attack intensified a little.
"These bastards!"
When the three Chen family foundation monks on Jinxia Mountain saw this scene, they were really shocked and angry, and they were so angry that they couldn't do it.
But they were angry, but they were very wise, or helpless, and did not expose the matter, let alone punish anyone.
As the saying goes: the law does not hold the public accountable.
When one person or a few people do this, they can still decisively kill these people to make an example.
But when everyone did this, if they dared to use violent means, they would only force those people to give up all of them to provide mana for the formation, so that the sand bandits outside would take advantage of it for nothing.
"Yang'er, I've arranged everything, and when it's time to act, you don't have to worry about anyone, just run for your life. ”
"Remember, you are the hope of our Zhou family's rise, your life alone is more precious than our people here, only if you live, grandpa's hard work will not be in vain, as long as you can build a successful foundation, all of us are dead, and it is worth it!"
At the formation node where the monks of the Zhou family were stationed, Zhou Yang was holding the Xuantie formation base with his hand to input mana into the formation, and the voice of his stepmother Zhou Xuanyu sounded in his ears again.
After hearing the transmission, he swept his eyes around, and found that Zhou Yu, Zhou Xiong, Zhou Yuanchun, Zhou Yuanzhen and other brothers and sisters of the same clan were all looking at him with or without him, and the expressions in his eyes were indescribably complicated.
Obviously, these people have also been transmitted by Zhou Xuanyu, maybe Zhou Xuanyu also specially explained that they let them cover his escape.
"I ...... I understand. He nodded with a heavy face, panicking in his heart.
First the old man Zhou Quan and other old people with the word "light", and now these brothers and sisters of the same age, these people have paid too much for the Zhou family to have one more monk in the foundation building period, and for him Zhou Yang to be able to build the foundation!
He is going to live, he must be alive!
Only alive, alive to build the foundation, alive to open up the Purple Mansion...... Only by leading the Zhou family to become a strong and powerful immortal cultivation family can he be worthy of the efforts of these people and those who have high hopes for him.
And at this moment, the white-haired old monk among the three Chen family foundation building monks suddenly moved his lips, and secretly said to Zhou Yang and Zhou Xuanyu: "The two Taoist friends of the Zhou family, in half an hour, we will join forces to urge the [Heavenly Earth Dragon Array] to fight back, if you want to break through, you have to seize the opportunity." ”
"Thank you for your kindness. ”
Zhou Yang and Zhou Xuanyu glanced at each other, and they both saw a strong joy in each other's eyes.
Just the words of the Chen family Zhuji monk increased their chances of escaping successfully by more than half.
It seems that their previous choice to abide by the covenant was correct, the three foundation building monks of the Chen family did not say anything on the surface, but secretly saw everything in their eyes, which is why they will have the secret reminder now.
