Letting the strong wind blow his clothes, Zhao Zhengke stood at the bow of the flying boat, his eyes looking at the Jade Smoky Mountain surrounded by the mountain protection array in front of him.

This scene is somewhat familiar, more than thirty years ago, when they last hit the Jade Smoke Mountain, it was like this. The monks of the Zhao family took a flying boat, drove to the Yuyan Mountain, broke through the mountain protection array, and then rushed in to burn and loot.

This time, it might even be a little easier.

Although, the Lu family now has one more Qiming monk Lu Chaoxi, but he is just a person in the Qiming period, and Zhao Zhengke doesn't pay attention to it at all. He is a monk of the sixth layer of Qiming, and he can completely crush with hard power. Moreover, back then, the Lu family's Jade Smoke Mountain was still a fourth-order spiritual vein, and the mountain protection array was also at the level of the fourth order. If it weren't for the fact that the Lu family only had a few foundation building cultivators back then, and they couldn't exert the full power of the Great Array at all, it would have been really difficult for them to attack it. Even so, more than thirty years ago, in order to enter the Jade Smoke Mountain, they also grinded at the bottom of the mountain for a year and a half, and finally boiled the Lu family monks inside until their spiritual power was exhausted, and then a fourth-order spell given by Zhao Laozu broke the big array with one final blow.

Now, the Jade Smoke Mountain is only a second-order spiritual vein, and the mountain protection array is also a second-order level that was rebuilt later, even if there is a Qiming monk in charge, it is much easier to break than back then.

Zhao's flying boat, thousands of meters away in front of the mountain protection array, slowly stopped and lowered its altitude.

Zhao Zhengke raised his hand, summoned a white crane, rode it up, and when he arrived in front of the mountain protection array, he mobilized his spiritual power and shouted to the Yuyan Mountain:

"Lu Chaoxi!

Voices echoed through the mountains, but there was no response.

After waiting for a while, he shouted again: "Are you ready to be a turtle?!" I'll give you a fair chance to fight, just you and me, if you win, my Zhao family will retreat, do you dare to come out?"

Lu Chaoxi, who heard this sentence in the mountains, really hesitated.

Lu Mingchao, who was next to him, saw the mentality of the old brother, and hurriedly persuaded him: "Don't fall for the trick, don't ignore the difference in strength between the two of you, you will definitely not be able to win;

"Well, I'm not going to be confused. Lu Chaoxi calmed down, he was a little angry just now, even if his sister didn't remind him, he couldn't really jump out to find death.

Zhao Zhengke, who was outside, saw that he couldn't deceive anyone, and he was not too disappointed. Originally, he tried it, and he didn't think Lu Chaoxi was really that stupid.

The following day, Zhao's offensive gradually began.

Three guns, like artillery, were erected. This thing is called 'Breaking Array Cannon', and it actually looks quite similar to the cannon before Lu Qing crossed - anyway, it is a long and thick cannon barrel.

This is a kind of artifact created by the joint efforts of alchemists and array mages, which is quite expensive, cumbersome, and difficult to handle. Although the power is not bad, it is only for the formation, and it is completely impractical to use it in the battle between monks, not to mention that it is very inconvenient to wear, and it is much weaker than some ordinary magic weapons of the same level when it hits people.

However, when playing formations, especially large formations such as the Mountain Guarding Array, the 'Breaking Array Cannon' is much better.

High-level refiners and array mages have to put a lot of effort into creating this special magic weapon. The refiner is responsible for the construction of the cannon body and the gun carriage that carries the formation, while the formation mage needs to implement the technology of reverse destruction of the formation on the formation breaking cannon.

The barrel was inscribed with formations and god patterns and was placed on a square gun mount. The barrel isn't really that important, and the gun carriage below is the real body. The spirit stone is reprinted inside, and it also extends several connections constructed with special mana threads, which need to be directly controlled by the monk.

Three array-breaking cannons, one large and one small, the big one is a third-order array-breaking cannon, this cannon is worth 30,000 spirit stones, and if one cannon is fired, hundreds of thousands of spirit stones will be burned down, and the two small ones are second-order array-breaking cannons, and the cost is tens of thousands.

The two foundation building monks each controlled a second-order formation breaking cannon, and there were many qi cultivators next to them to assist, and Zhao Zhengke himself personally controlled the third-order one.

With Zhao Zhengke's order, the cannon roared, and the three groups of spiritual power light burst out on the mountain protection array of the Jade Smoky Mountain.

The white clouds and mist that protected the Jade Smoky Mountain, there was a violent surge, and the place that was hit by the third-order breaking array was even pierced, and the scene on the Jade Smoky Mountain behind could be faintly seen.

Lu Chaoxi and the others, who were presiding over the formation on the mountain, hurriedly urged the formation, and the aura in the spiritual veins was mobilized, quickly filling the gap.

But after half a quarter of an hour of silence, three more cannon shots rang out, and under a salvo, the mountain protection array fluctuated violently.

"Go on with that...... Even if we tried our best to resist, we would only be able to hold on for three days at most. ”

Lu Chaohe himself is a formation mage, and he usually maintains the mountain protection needles on Yuyan Mountain, so he will naturally know more about the situation of this formation.

"Then carry it. Lu Chaoxi said, "The consumption of their Formation Breaking Cannon is definitely greater than the consumption we use to rely on the Spirit Vein to urge the formation." ”

This is true, if you really want to fire the cannon for three days in a row, the Zhao clan will have at least three or four foundation building monks who have exhausted their spiritual power, and they will definitely not be able to recover if they don't replenish it in a few days. On his own side, the main energy source of the mountain protection array is provided by the spiritual vein, even if the formation is forced, the preservation of his own combat power is definitely better than that of the other party.

In the follow-up decisive battle, the other party will have three or four less foundation building monks, which is quite critical.

It's just that this battle is still not easy to fight.

Lu Chaoxi looked at his younger brother, sister, and the faces of many family juniors, all with a resolute expression.

But his own mentality is relatively not so nervous.

Of course he knew that this was a life-and-death battle for the family, and he himself was not Zhao Zhengke's opponent, after all, he had just entered Qiming, and he had been in the Qiming period for decades.

But......

Thinking of his father's transmission before, he felt relieved.

What can Zhao Zidan do when he comes?

Just as he was thinking this, his father's voice arrived again.

"Let go of the big formation. ”

He immediately said, "Let go of the Great Array!"

"Huh?" The family monks present were all stunned, thinking that there was something wrong with their ears, whether they had heard it wrong, so that no one did what Lu Chaoxi said.

Didn't you just say that it would take three days to consume the mana of the three or four foundation-building monks of the Zhao family?

What does it mean to let go?

Lu Chaoxi first withdrew the mana, summoned the 'Flashing' flying sword, and then said: "Let go of the magic circle, this is what my father meant." ”

"Father?" Ming Chao was the first to react, and she asked excitedly, "Dad can get out?"

"Hmm. Lu Chaoxi said with a smile.

Everyone else reacted at this time.

The Jindan ancestor of the family...... Really not dead, and can make a shot?

......

Outside the mountain gate, the monks of the Zhao family all saw the white clouds and mist around the Jade Smoky Mountain, which suddenly became much thinner and completely disappeared in a short period of time.

"Huh?" Zhao Zhengke was a little stunned.

The Great Mountain Protection Array of Jade Smoky Mountain has been breached?So fast?Although he has a third-order Breaking Formation Cannon, the other party's Mountain Protection Formation is only a second-order, but after all, there is Lu Chaoxi, an enlightened monk on Jade Smoky Mountain, who is presiding over the Great Array, even if it is to be broken, it shouldn't be so fast, right?

According to his estimates, it will take at least three days to get started.

So what is the situation? There is infighting on the Jade Smoky Mountain? They themselves took the initiative to remove the mountain protection array?

For the sake of caution, afraid that there would be something greasy in this, Zhao Zhengke did not give any orders at the first time, but summoned the white crane and flew to a higher position, wanting to see more clearly.

He saw that on the Jade Smoke Mountain, the light of the six flying swords lit up, and the one with lightning at the head was naturally Lu Chaoxi, and the back five should be the five foundation-building monks of the Lu clan. And below them, more than forty Qi cultivators of the Lu family also formed a formation, and under the leadership of the six senior monks of the family, they walked down the mountain.

There is no infighting, it seems that he just wants to take the initiative.

The seven foundation building monks that the Zhao family had gathered here now also flew up one by one, and one of them couldn't help but sneer: "Are these Lu family monks dying?"

"How dare you take the initiative?"

"It's good that way, it saves me a lot of effort. ”

Between the words, the atmosphere of everyone became more and more relaxed.

Without the Great Array of Mountain Guards, the battle between the two sides is purely a hard power between the monks.

But how could the Zhao family be afraid of the Lu family?

From a distance, the appearance of them coming down from the mountain is menacing, but what is that? The Zhao clan has more than 100 lineage monks here, and there are two more Zhuji than the other party, and if the Qiming monks are concerned, Zhao Zhengke has a clear advantage.

"Patriarch, give the order, today is the time for me to avenge Pingliang!"

Zhao Zhengke frowned, looking at the appearance of the Lu family coming in the distance, but there was always a worry in his heart.

Is the Lu family so bold? Could it be that Lu Qing really ......

At this time, Zhao Zidan's words sounded in his ears: "Lu Qing is not here, kill." ”

This sentence immediately put down all his worries.

Jindan Ancestor's judgment, can it still be wrong?

"Then fight! Zhao's son, all rush with me!"

After speaking, he made the white crane and rushed forward, aiming directly at Lu Chaoxi!

In mid-air, he had already begun to prepare the spell. He is not the most common sword cultivator in Feiyun Prefecture, he is sparse and ordinary in this regard, and he is not very good at urging magic swords to cut people, he is better at responding to the enemy with spells.

A lake-blue rosary appeared in his hand, and with the urging of spiritual power, behind him, a cloud with a little blue light suddenly generated, condensed, and became a dragon. The fog dragon was a hundred feet long, and it let out an angry roar like a living creature, passing him and his white crane, and surging towards Lu Chaoxi.

Lu Chaoxi didn't hesitate, and the black current on the 'Ulei' also increased countless times in an instant, slashing towards the fog dragon.

The two collided...... Ouray flew out.

"Have you never fought a duel between Qiming monks?" Zhao Zhengke's cheerful voice came, and the fog dragon trend continued to rush sideways.

The feeling of the magic sword being blown away was uncomfortable, and Lu Chaoxi was somewhat impacted.

really let Zhao Zhengke say it accurately, after Lu Chaoxi enlightened, the strongest opponent he has ever fought is the White Ghost King. The feeling of fighting against such a huge monster is completely different from that of a real Enlightenment monk.

The lack of experience, coupled with the crushing of hard power, made him make a wrong judgment.

At this moment, he didn't have time to re-control 'Ulei', Zhao Zhengke's fog dragon was much stronger than he imagined.

He could only use all his strength to activate the two defensive magic weapons, the 'Qiankun Naling Diagram' and the 'Guardian Spirit Golden Armor', hoping to block this spell.

However, the expected impact did not come. The mighty shape of the fog dragon quickly disintegrated and dissipated in mid-air.

And through the disintegrating fog dragon, Lu Chaoxi saw Zhao Zhengke riding a white crane behind him, covered by a cloud of crimson fire, and his terrible screams were also heard.

The moment the fire burned himself, Zhao Zhengke felt that something was wrong.

As an old rival, he immediately recognized that this was the famous spell from the 'Ember Fire Immeasurable Technique', 'Ember Fire Extinguished'.

He not only recognized this trick, but even suffered it himself.

That was more than thirty years ago, when the Zhao family attacked Yuyan Mountain last time. It was Lu Chaoxi who made the shot, and he activated a third-order fire talisman left by Lu Laozu and hit him.

At that time, he was only a second-layer of Qiming, and the taste of being hit by a third-order fire talisman was really uncomfortable. The 'Ember Fire Extinguished' characteristic of not giving up without burning anything clean was quite frightening, and he wasted a lot of effort at that time to solve the problem. If he hadn't been hit by the fire talisman, he would have killed Lu Chaoxi directly, and it would not have been possible to delay the arrival of the sect monks and stop the war between the two sides.

However, having said that, when he was hit by the 'Ember Fire Extinguishing Talisman', he only felt trouble, but now he is stronger, and he has experience after suffering losses, and he has prepared in advance, so he will not take the charm in his eyes.

When the crimson flame burned on his body, he planned to use his spiritual power to isolate the crimson flame of destruction according to his previous plan, and then find a way to get rid of it.

However, when his spiritual power came into contact with this flame, he immediately felt that something was wrong: why was it so powerful?

Before this bad feeling could arise, he felt that the spiritual power he had exerted on his body and used to protect it was instantly burned through, and the flames directly touched his body.

It's definitely not a spell! This is a direct attack from the Fire Cultivator of the Jindan Period!

As soon as this thought arose, the intense pain of his body and even his soul being burned together instantly overwhelmed his perception, causing him to unconsciously let out a terrible scream.

A clear green light fell from the sky, this was Zhao Zidan on the flying boat, and he made a move after feeling wrong.

He tried to use a wooden spell to purify the crimson flames.

However, it was too late.

The crane under Zhao Zhengke's body had already been burned to death first, his body on fire fell down from mid-air, and the purification technique and body did eliminate the 'Ember Fire Extinguishment', but Zhao Zhengke, who was originally wrapped in flames, had been burned black in this extremely short period of time, not to mention that his body was destroyed, and his soul was also refined and destroyed.

"Lu Qing!"

Zhao Zidan's roar came, and his figure rose from the flying boat, with a colorful lotus flower under his feet.

And in the direction of his gaze, a huge crimson fire dragon soared up, raising its head and spewing out a thick flame, reflecting half of the sky red.

Above the dragon's head, there stood a young man with flying beard, looking at Zhao Zidan with scarlet eyes.

"I'm Yuyan Lu Qing!"

"Old thief Zhao, don't come to die quickly!"
