Ye Guan had been worried before, the people behind Shen Tuyan cultivated death qi, and the real thing between the East Wangfu and the enclave was provoked by the people behind him. And now that the troops have arrived near Qiuchang City, the battle has begun, and there are mutual injuries, if the person behind it really retracts the dead air, there will definitely be clues, and he took Xu Bao with him, mainly because Xu Bao is rough in the formation, although he is not proficient, but there is no problem in finding some clues in the formation.

Ye Guan's eyes narrowed slightly, looked at Xu Bao, and asked softly, "Xu Bao, you may arrange a formation to monitor the energy fluctuations around you?"

Suddenly hearing Ye Guan's question, Xu Bao, who was already a little nervous in his heart, was taken aback, and seeing that it was Ye Guan asking, he hurriedly said respectfully: "Back to my lord, my subordinates can arrange it." ”

"Good. Hearing this, Ye Guan nodded lightly and said, "You go to the front army, arrange the formation, monitor the energy fluctuations of the battlefield, and if there is anything abnormal, come and report to me immediately." ”

"Honorable Order!" Xu Bao's spirit was shocked, and he immediately moved forward and went straight to the front army.

Xu Baoqi has joined the Dongwangfu for many years, but he has not really been on the battlefield, and now it is the first time, it is inevitable that he is a little nervous in his heart, but he also understands that if he needs a sergeant who goes to the front line to kill the enemy, there are many in the Dongwangfu army;

Xu Bao's feelings for Dongwangfu are a little complicated. He was originally the eyeliner of the Northern Emperor Zhengzheng who was installed in Dongxuancheng, Dongwangfu, and he had been lurking for many years and achieved the position of centurion. Over the years, he has a strong sense of attachment to the East Palace, but he has to carry out the orders of the North Palace. Until his detailed identity was exposed, he knew in his heart that what he had done to the East Wangfu was very bad, and he was sent to the enclave this time, originally with the determination to die, if he died on the battlefield, he would have an explanation for the East Wangfu and the North Wangfu.

But Ye Guan chose to keep himself by his side, knowing his identity as a fine worker, but still trusting himself and him, such a feeling he had never felt before, which made him struggle even more.

But in the end, he still chose to stand on the side of the East Wangfu and serve Ye Guan. Also because of the turmoil in the Qitian Empire, the Northern Wangfu was involved in the war, and the Eastern Wangfu was marching into the enclave. Since the last time the Dongxuancheng formation happened, there has been no order from the Beiwang Mansion, as if he had forgotten his chess piece.

Xu Bao decided that under Ye Guan's command, after solving the matter of the enclave, if he still had his life, he would go back to the Beiwang Mansion alone and exchange his life for the safety of his relatives.

came to the front army, explained the intention to Ding Jiang, the commander of the front army, and after getting the approval of the other party, Xu Bao immediately began to arrange.

The arrangement of the formation to detect the energy fluctuations of the surrounding environment is not cumbersome, but the larger the monitoring range, the greater the energy required for the arranged formation. With Xu Bao's ability, it is not difficult to arrange a formation with a radius of about one mile, and at this moment, the front army is at most about a mile away from the wooden city wall, and with his ability, he can completely set up a formation and monitor the energy fluctuations of the entire battlefield.

Spells quickly appeared on the ground, flashing yellow fluorescent, and it didn't take long for a circle to form. Xu Bao stood on it, chanting words in his mouth, carved a spell in the air again, and suddenly pressed on the formation, a burst of light stirred, and the formation under Xu Bao's feet began to rotate slowly.

After the formation was set, Xu Bao immediately sat down cross-legged, sitting in the formation, his eyes slightly closed, and in his mind, a picture appeared, this is an ancient well without waves, and Xu Bao is sitting in the center of this water.

The range of the water surface is one mile square, and if there is any fighting spirit or formation fluctuation within this range, it will cause the water surface to fluctuate.

At the same time as Xu Bao arranged the formation, the battle ahead entered a white-hot stage.

In the air, the sound of boulders breaking through the air came from time to time, and huge stones flew towards the wooden city wall, leaving huge depressions on the city wall every time, at this time, the city had been smashed by the boulders, and there was a tendency to collapse.

Frontally, the crossbowmen kept firing arrows at the city walls, hundreds of crossbowmen, each time the arrows were fired, several enemy soldiers fell to the ground, and in front of them, more sergeants held large shields in their hands, blocking the entire crossbowmen army behind them to resist the crossbow attacks from the city walls.

At the city gate, the siege vehicle had advanced to the city gate, and the huge rushing cone was pushed by several sergeants and smashed towards the city gate.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

As the storming vehicles attacked from time to time, the entire wooden city wall was crumbling.

The commander of the city was already exhausted, and in this situation, he had no way to organize the Dongwangfu army to break through the city gate, and immediately ordered all the soldiers to immediately withdraw from the city wall.

The city was crowded with people, and under the order of the commander, immediately retreated to the rear, and in the process, the crossbowmen under the city fired another salvo of arrows and crossbows, taking several lives.

As the enclave retreated, the battle of the wooden walls was no longer in suspense, and a moment later, with the last sound of the rushing carts hitting the city gates, the entire wooden wall broke in the middle and collapsed, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Behind the city walls, there was a wider road, and on both sides of the road, improvised camps had been built, and at this moment, the enclave sergeants had withdrawn far away, and went straight inward along the path.

Seeing this, Ding Jiang ordered his subordinates to clean up the battlefield and not to pursue.

The first head-on contact between the Ye Guan Department of the Dongwang Mansion and the Shen Tu Yan troops of Qiu Changcheng ended like this.

A simple siege battle, with damage on both sides, but it ended in the victory of the Eastern Palace.

The news immediately reached Ye Guan's ears, Ye Guan was still unwavering, such a battle was easy for the Tiger and Wolf Division of the East Prince's Mansion, and it did not attract his attention. What he was more concerned about at the moment was the news of Xu Bao's monitoring of energy fluctuations.

At this moment, Xu Bao was still sitting cross-legged in the formation, the water surface in his mind had been unwavering, no matter how he fought on the battlefield, there was no sign of fluctuation, until the end of the battle, his own sergeants had begun to clean up the battlefield, and the water surface had not changed at all.

Just as Xu Bao was about to revoke the formation and go back to Ye Guan to return to his life, a powerful wave came, forming a stormy wave above the water surface, and this energy formed a deep black wind in Xu Bao's mind, wisps of it, actually condensed in the air, forming a huge black sphere. The water in my mind was turbulent, and the energy fluctuations came from the battlefield in front of me, and the momentum was huge.

As the black spheres in the air grew larger, the water surface fluctuated more and more violently.

"Click!"

With a crisp sound, the water surface in Xu Bao's mind suddenly exploded and shattered directly, Xu Bao was devoured by this powerful energy, and immediately spit blood, and the formation on the ground suddenly shattered, turning into fluorescent ones and dissipating in the air.

"Wow......" At the moment when the formation was shattered, Xu Bao was once again hit by the power of counterattack, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, staining the ground in front of him red, and the sergeants guarding around him were immediately shocked when they saw this, and they stepped forward one after another, helped Xu Bao up, and carried him to the rear.

The battle was over, and there was a special place for the wounded and sick in the former army, which was rudimentary, but could also be bandaged.

A group of sergeants carried Xu Bao over, and then put him on a couch, Xu Bao's face was like gold paper at the moment, the corners of his mouth were bleeding, he only felt that he had a splitting headache, and his steel teeth were clenched, so that the power of the counterattack could be directly poured into his body through the formation, and the meridians of his whole body were injured.

"Ahem...... cough ......" Xu Bao coughed violently a few times, grabbed the military doctor who was going to treat him, and said in a low voice: "...... me Things, informed...... The consul general ...... "Speaking of this, he only felt that his eyes were dark and he fainted.

Xu Bao's matter was reported to Ye Guan as soon as possible, and Ye Guan's heart tightened when he heard this, and he immediately came to the former military camp.

Seeing Xu Bao lying on the couch like gold paper, Ye Guan frowned, stretched out a single hand, and hit Xu Bao's wrist, and wisps of pure fighting energy slowly flowed into Xu Bao's body and entered his meridians.

Xu Bao's meridians were injured in many places, causing breath to leak out, and the injury was quite serious, Ye Guan injected a fighting qi into Xu Bao's body, making it run slowly in his meridians, which could play a role in alleviating it. It is extremely difficult to recover from the injuries of the meridians, and it is impossible to recover without a long period of rest. Ye Guan himself was seriously injured in the meridians, and at this moment there was still that person's fighting spirit in his body, and from time to time he rushed left and right in the meridians, Ye Guan had to use half of his fighting energy to form a protective layer in the meridians, so he investigated and suppressed the injury.

After punching into a fighting aura, Ye Guan withdrew his arm and frowned.

You don't have to look at him to know that his previous guess is probably correct.

The battlefield has been cleared, in this battle, the own side suffered one hundred and six casualties, the enemy suffered one hundred and thirty casualties, the city wall has been pushed to the ground, and the East Wangfu occupies the entire area.

Immediately, Ye Guan ordered to camp on the spot, doubled the patrol team, and sent several teams of scouts to follow the path ahead and inquire about the news ahead.

The sergeants immediately began to get busy, and all the generals ordered their subordinates to start camping. Ye Guan sat on the stone beside him, his brows furrowed.

"There are only more than two hundred casualties on both sides, but the accumulated energy can turn the formation magicians who monitor the formation into serious ......injuries," Ye Guan carefully analyzed in his heart: "Xu Bao's cultivation is probably a high-level monk, so if his cultivation is reversed like this, how terrible is the energy accumulated by this person." ”

Thinking of the previous battle between Yu Sheng and Shen Tuyan, the battle of Changxiang City killed and injured tens of thousands of people, the energy gathered was dozens of times greater than now, if such a huge amount of energy really gathered into the human body......

"Although I haven't reached the Venerable level, I can probably guess that the total amount of energy that the Venerable level can withstand is about ten to twenty times that of mine. Ye Guan's mind was racing rapidly: "And between me and the senior monk, the difference in the total amount and strength of the fighting qi is about ten to fifteen times. ”

Ye Guan cultivates a special fighting qi, his fighting qi density is different from that of ordinary martial arts, he is also a martial artist senior, and his combat power is several times that of an ordinary martial artist senior monk. At this moment, Ye Guan used his own fighting qi as a measuring stick to get this number, but for ordinary monks, there was not such a big gap.

Ye Guan frowned, he suddenly discovered that through Xu Bao's monitoring today, the death qi energy generated by the death of two hundred sergeants could burst the meridians of a high-ranking monk. That's 20,000 people......

Such a huge amount of energy, if it was really used for the cultivation of the person behind Shen Tu Yan, then this person's cultivation was likely to reach the level of Venerable or above. But if you really cultivated to the legendary level, why did you use this way to accumulate death qi?

Through simple calculations, if it is a battlefield with 20,000 dead and wounded, the accumulated death qi energy is enough for a monk to cultivate a Dao Venerable from the most elementary level, and such a huge amount of energy is categorically impossible to directly merge into the monk's body, even if this monk is cultivating death qi, it is impossible.

"That's not right...... There must be something else behind this!" Thinking of this, Ye Guan's eyes suddenly brightened.
