Chapter 19: Sword Marks

The color in Wei Wuji's pupils quickly dimmed.

He looked at Concubine Zhao Xiang, and just responded softly before he died: "Originally, I only admired one woman, and now you are the second." ”

Zhao Xiangfei nodded, retracted her fists, and let his body slide off her arm and fall to the ground.

There is no doubt that her adventure has succeeded, but she also knows very well that the final victory depends on the Yin Mountain area.

When she turned around and looked in the direction of Yinshan, in the territory of Yinshan, most of the Qin army had been assembled, and the Qin army besieging Apocalypse City was about to start a new round of attack.

Because Sima Cuo regarded the besieged isolated city of the Chu army as the key to victory in the decisive battle, and issued an order to capture this city before dark, and then quickly deploy defenses to snipe the main force of the Chu army here, so this attack was different from any previous one, and it was no longer possible to take into account casualties and the loss of ordnance.

Countless arrows rained down on the city, the arrows of these arrows were made of phosphorite, and after violent friction with the air, they burned vigorously, turning into fireballs.

The archers of the Qin army pulled the bowstring, and this expensive arrow was used by them like a dead branch without money in their hands at this time, because of the pursuit of extreme speed, the fingers of these archers began to bleed, and their arms began to tremble.

Most of the talismans had been depleted in the first round of bombardment, and at this time, most of the lonely city, which was under siege by the Qin army, had already burned, and there were columns of smoke everywhere, and the air smelled of all kinds of burning.

A heavily armored cavalry of the Qin army had begun to charge towards a breach in the wall, heavy iron hooves bombarding the ground, making the gravel on the wall throb.

At this moment, a terrible sound of breaking the air overtook all the sounds, and in the next moment, the Qin army let out a cheer that shook the ground and the mountains.

It turned out that at this time, a group of heavy crossbow machines in the Qin army had also moved here, and hundreds of heavy crossbow arrows as thick as a baby's arm fell fiercely into the fracture of the city wall, and then another round, a total of three rounds were fired in an instant, and thousands of heavy crossbow arrows nailed the surrounding area of the city wall into a forest, and the terrifying power stirred up pieces of dust waves to spread outward.

However, in the midst of the cheers that shook the ground, in the dust and nitrate splashed by the crossbow arrows into the walls and the mud inside, and in front of the impact of the heavily armored cavalry, a figure appeared at the mouth of the broken wall.

The moment this figure appeared, a terrifying heat appeared in the dust mist, and then even the diffuse dust seemed to burn up, turning into countless sparks flying outward.

The figure in the fluttering sparks was a tall man, his long black hair untied, flying wantonly in the sparks, but when all these Qin army sergeants saw his figure clearly, a more dazzling fire had already appeared in his hands.

He raised his sword and swung the flame.

The sword of heaven and earth exploded.

It was like a huge flood furnace smashed down, and then turned into a sword intent, cutting horizontally.

Puff puff puff...

The front of this frantically charging heavy armored cavalry fell in a fiery red, and these hundreds of heavy armored cavalry soldiers collided with this fiery red one after another, and their entire bodies exploded like a burst of fire, and countless heavy metal armor pieces splashed out.

Time also seems to freeze in this moment.

Many people swallow a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, but still can't breathe smoothly.

Where the fiery red fell, a deep sword mark that was more than a hundred zhang long, more than a zhang wide, appeared.

The severed limbs of those heavily armored cavalry soldiers were sprinkled in the sword marks, burning.

The remaining dozens of horsemen could not advance, and those war horses whose eyes were already blindfolded sensed great fear, and even the cavalry envoys above could not control them, and they spun wildly in place.

The most shocking thing was the several cultivators in the Qin army, and some memories that had been buried for many years in their hearts began to awaken, such a picture seemed familiar.

Many years ago, when the army of the Great Qin Dynasty broke through the city of the Zhao Dynasty, there was an iron shop in one of the cities.

There was a grandmaster in the blacksmith's shop, and then he carried his sword to the gate of the city and slashed his sword in the face of the Qin army coming like a tide.

A long sword mark appeared in front of the city.

Then the grandmaster just said, whoever passes this sword mark will die.

And then that whole army was gone.

The world knew that there was a Zhao Jian furnace in that city.

"Whoever passes this sword mark will die. ”

In the firelight, Zhao Ce's long black hair also turned crimson, like countless tiny flames dancing wildly. He was ordered by his master to follow Tang Yu and left Zhao Di for many years, and many memories of Zhao Di are also fading, but he is the one who experienced the battle back then, and he and the few cultivators of Zhao Jian Furnace were standing in the city watching his master Shi Jian back then.

Today, looking at the sword he cast himself, looking at this sword mark, the sword of his master in his memory became clearer, and gradually coincided with the light and shadow in front of him.

It was only at this time that he truly realized the many meanings in the sword of his master back then.

He said this.

Listening to his voice burning in the flames, he felt that he was a few points closer to his former master, and he felt that he was a few points stronger.

It's a good feeling.

Several terrible military orders sounded, and the several armies that had been rushing here with heavy cavalry suddenly began to retreat.

"Back then, you Qin people didn't dare to face our Zhao Jianlu's sword, don't be many years later, there is still no one who dares to come out. ”

Zhao Ce looked coldly at the Qin army in front of him and said, "If you talk about invincibility, who was really invincible back then?"

When he said this, a strange sound suddenly sounded in the sky where the clouds were flying.

The sound was like the chirping of a crane, but it had a very eerie smell.

Everyone unconsciously looked up at the sky at this moment.

A thick black cloud continued to roll in shape, flying in the sky.

There seemed to be a crane in the clouds, but there was no flesh or feathers, it was all skeleton, but there was a black flame stream burning on the skeleton, beyond the scope of the world's imagination.

"There are some things you don't understand. ”

A ghostly voice fell from the air.

As soon as the black clouds closed, the black bone crane also disappeared into invisibility.

Not far behind the sword mark, there was already a cultivator with a deep ghostly aura.

This cultivator was wearing a dark robe with an extremely high collar, and when he looked up at Zhao Ce as he spoke, the black qi around his body continued to shine, naturally condensing into black plum blossoms, and then quickly disappearing.

"Wang Jingmeng once agreed with your master to fight the war, but your emperor of Great Zhao is too stupid, just because of some rumors, he is afraid that your master will take his throne. Set up a bureau to kill your master first. ”

The cultivator said faintly, "Although Wang Jingmeng and I are mortal enemies, we can't lose the name of all Qin people because of this. ”
