Chapter 600: Trapped in Tongguan
Chapter 600: Trapped in Tongguan (8K, supplement 39)
Whoosh!
Jiang He stepped on the ground and it cracked like a net.
He went straight to the side of the Taoist's head who was a hundred meters away and kicked out. His huge body, like a mountain, had no power to resist in front of the tiny figure. It immediately rose from the ground and slammed towards Hangu Pass.
The majestic fortress collapsed here.
The sub-hero guards were too late to rescue Yelu Zhuguo and could only carry Murong Lan away. The emperor was killing people on the battlefield, and even standing behind them could not guarantee their safety.
Whoosh whoosh!
Faced with the mud-armored soldiers who were coming like a tide, the evil god guards formed a formation and fired rapidly, with thousands of arrows released at once. When the powerful arrows were used up, the barbs on the heavy thorn shields were inexhaustible.
The whistling sound of countless arrows tore through the air, and the black rain of arrows covered the sky. When the mud-armored soldiers in the front row raised their heads, thorn arrows had already pierced their visors, and scarlet blood dripped from the tails of the arrows. The second wave of arrow rain followed, nailing people to the ground again.
A centurion at the peak gold level had a broken arrow stuck in his throat, but he was still roaring. The blood oozing from between his fingers flowed along the arrow shaft into a stream. A soldier in the rear line stepped on the corpse of his companion and advanced. In an instant, a thorn arrow pierced through the back of his neck and pierced the chest armor of his colleague behind him, tying the two of them together like a bloody candied haws.
shhhhhh!
Broken arrows were like reeds, densely stuck in the bloody body. The mountain wind swept across the battlefield, and the smell of blood with a taste of rust kept echoing.
Being a sub-hero level master means having stronger archery endurance. After dozens of rounds of volleys, corpses were strewn all over the area in front of Hangu Pass.
There was a sea of fire coming from the front.
Murong Lan commanded the actors' army with a crazy look on his face, as if he was clinging to the last hope.
Jiang He ignored the sea of fire in front of him, and a pitch-black longbow appeared. When the bowstring trembled, the arrow disappeared, and Murong Lan's body exploded, and the powerful force engulfed the sub-hero guard next to him.
With a point of his finger, the flames swept across.
The sea of fire quickly turned black, the Yanggang stilts were damaged, and the actors fell one after another, accompanied by howls of pain, and turned into ashes in the final flames.
Jiang He kept pulling the bow.
Explosions rose up on the ground again and again. The fearless mud-armored soldiers decreased at an incredible speed, and the ground in front of Hangu Pass was riddled with holes.
A quarter of an hour of unilateral slaughter.
The war is over.
Si Ning came to Jiang He and took out a large sword box from the storage bag. Seventy large silver swords were neatly stacked inside. All the gains from his relentless pursuit of the aristocratic families were here.
"Just pick one."
Jiang He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is there a difference?"
"Of course not." Si Ning picked up a silver sword and pretended to push the hilt with his thumb, as if he was holding a syringe.
"But I have to take care of the patient's emotions."
puff!
Si Ning grinned evilly and stabbed the silver sword into Jiang He's lower back.
The originally dried up energy was completely restored in the blink of an eye, and the Greedy Candidate's ability in auxiliary aspects was extremely outstanding.
Jiang He clearly felt refreshed, and his "worn" vitality was also nourished.
Si Ning packed up his sword box and said seriously, "The final time ring is indeed powerful, but the power of force seems to be causing physical damage all the time. Your capacity is fine, but without the body of a legend or a hero, I think it's still a little early to bear the power of power."
The authority of power and the "weight" of various powers in the mysterious realm are enough to crush ordinary heroes to death. Even the Angry Immortal, in the sub-hero state, mainly uses the authority of the scales, and the seven powers are separated, which is actually to reduce the burden on himself.
"Let's talk about it later." Jiang He said perfunctorily.
Create a battlefield, collect corpses, and train divine guards.
The evil guards have already mastered the process for this.
The loss of war and materials, offset by relatively high-level materials, brought the number of Evil Guards to 4000.
Jiang He summoned the phantom of an ancient barbarian dragon with four heads and an eight-cornered shape.
"Fourth level of Savage Dragon power."
Precisely because of the sudden increase in power, the pressure has become so great that even Si Ning cannot ignore it. This is not a power that a golden creature should master at all.
The evil guards continued to move forward. The little girl in white came over and sat on the gray warhorse. She was holding a thorn in her hand with six sub-hero heads on it. She was responsible for dealing with the high-level combat power.
"Big snake."
Zhuang Ya's little face was pressed against someone's back. She could smell something bad as her strange heartbeat like a drum kept beating.
"Small problem." Jiang He answered casually. As long as he could advance to the Heroic Era in the next real-world mission, everything would be solved naturally. With the time ring, it would be difficult for him to die.
……
Tongguan.
This is the last barrier to entering the Guanzhong area.
One hundred thousand elite soldiers from the Northern Wei clan and the Western Barbarian tribe were stationed here. These soldiers were all at the peak of gold level, equivalent to the private armies of the Southern Liang family. In addition, tens of thousands of martial arts masters also came, and the leader of the martial arts world came in person, taking charge as a dignified land immortal.
In the Tongguan city tower.
The Northern Wei Dynasty's current top general, Great Pillar Murong An, sat opposite the leader of the Wulin Alliance, accompanied by the deputy leader Dongfang Xianxian and the deputy leader of the Jiuliu Sect. The atmosphere at the banquet was extremely solemn.
"We took three cities in half a day and buried a million soldiers."
The deputy leader sighed and said, "The emperor is already invincible. Our plan to rely on the army to wear down that person has completely failed. To be honest, the plans we prepared were all for a large-scale battle. The emperor personally led the imperial guards to raid, which was completely unexpected."
"Master, don't be upset." Murong An said solemnly, "Not being afraid of the military formation is a rare story throughout the ages. What's more, the emperor has a guard composed of 3,000 fourth-level masters. It is unimaginable for anyone to do this."
"No matter what, we must save the prince."
Dongfang Xianxian was dressed in a snowy outfit, looking cold and unparalleled, with an extremely beautiful appearance. Her snowy peaks were hanging on the table, a magnificent sight. She looked to be only in her twenties, but her cultivation had already reached the level of a sub-hero, with two swords on her waist, ranking first among the ten candidates. Murong An's eyes flashed with greed. The most beautiful woman on the Rouge List was the best in the world in terms of both appearance and figure. Dongfang was a famous martial arts family, so Dongfang Xianxian had hundreds of family members serving as expert guards.
"Miss Dongfang." Murong An sighed and said, "I also want to save the prince, but you should also know that my legitimate son Murong Lan has died in the battle. Anger cannot dominate the battle. Moreover, the prince has already become a useless person after being placed under the banner of the Divine Guard Army."
"You don't have to worry about that." Dongfang Xianxian said without any shyness: "I have the body of Taiyin. When I have intercourse with the prince, I will be able to come back to life. As long as I save the prince, the Dongfang family will reward me handsomely."
When Murong An heard this, greed in his eyes reached its peak.
The Taiyin body, like the Dragon-Elephant body of the second son of King Pingxi, is a top-notch physique, and it is twice as easy to practice with half the effort. If he can use this to be promoted to a sub-hero, his qi and blood will increase, and perhaps he can live for another ten years.
Dongfang Xianxian vaguely sensed Murong An's desire, and a hint of disgust appeared in her eyes.
Seeing that the atmosphere was about to get awkward, Ah Da, the leader of the Wulin Alliance, said, "The Divine Guards have already left Hangu Pass. Our scouts are no match for the Divine Guards. Since we are not sure when the enemy will attack, why not let the Wulin Alliance take charge tonight?"
The vigilance and perception of martial arts masters are naturally greater than those of ordinary elites.
The three people present nodded. This was the best choice. It was no longer a secret that the Evil Guards had defeated the Lin'an regime.
……
It was late at night and the darkness was like a curtain.
The troops in Tongguan were in neat order. The soldiers slept in their clothes, with their swords and bows and arrows at their sides.
The Emperor of Southern Liang conquered three cities in half a day and destroyed a million-strong army, which put tremendous pressure on every soldier. The atmosphere in the military camp was heavy. Some generals gathered together and even sent out scouts secretly to guard against possible attacks at night.
Tongguan city wall.
Ah Da waved away his attendants and his face became honest.
At some point, a dragon robe appeared. Jiang He looked into the city, his sight penetrating the thick night.
"Close the city gates tightly, don't let anyone escape."
Ah Da clasped his fists and said, "I understand."
A quarter of an hour later, the order was passed down, and hundreds of martial arts masters pushed barricades and iron barrels and piled up in front of the four city gates. Murong An and others did not sleep at all, not because they doubted the leader of the martial arts world, but according to the speed of the Divine Guards' advancement, it was normal to attack Tongguan tonight.
On the top of the city wall, Jiang He raised his arms, a deep black light lingered between his eyes, and the power of destiny was activated. He saw countless silk threads entangled in Tongguan, weaving into a dense spider's nest.
In countless destinies.
Jiang He found the thread of fate called "enemy".
It comes from the cause and effect between him and all the living beings in the city.
Following this thread of fate, a drop of extremely dark blood seeped out from Jiang He's fingertips.
The black blood spread at an unimaginable speed.
Next to the stable, a soldier was feeding his warhorse night rations. Before he knew it, lumps appeared on his abdomen and black rashes spread all over his body. In the blink of an eye, the soldier's eyeballs fell out and foul-smelling blood overflowed from his cracked skin. However, he was completely unaware and continued to feed the horse rations until his whole body turned into pus.
In the central army tent, Murong An raised his glass again and again to dispel the burning desire in his heart. The precious wine flowed out of his empty abdomen, mixed with blood and flesh to form a turbid liquid, and flowed all over the ground.
In a separate military camp, the newly promoted seventh candidate for the world's top rank, the deputy leader of Jiuliu Sect, was wiping a zither case. Slowly, his movements became slower and slower, until the rotten blood corroded the ancient zither. He suddenly woke up and wanted to reach out for help, but his arm suddenly fell to the ground.
The whole city was dead silent.
The Tongguan garrison was heading towards its irreversible death.
Foul-smelling black blood gathered into streams crisscrossing the city. Eyeballs, hearts, and heads rose and fell in it, and then gradually sank. When the members of the Martial Alliance walked out of the tent, their faces turned pale, as if they had seen hell.
On the top of the city wall, Jiang He stopped.
The Black Death of Hell was originally a world-destroying force, but in the world of Zhulu, because of the world energy level and the core of the sun, it could only kill a mere 100,000 elite soldiers.
"You can control the Martial Alliance." Jiang He said.
Not a question, but an order.
Ah Da bowed his head and said, "Boss, there are many remnants of the Wu League that were wiped out by Wu Zong. If you torture them to find out their skills, it may be troublesome and it will take some time."
Jiang He nodded and said, "Then you come and call the roll."
"clear."
Ah Da recalled: "The deputy leader of Baibing Sect, Baizhang Spear, wore a blue robe today."
Jiang He opened his Demonic Eye and chaotic energy gushed out. Nine blue-robed martial arts masters in the city died, and the chaotic energy instantly annihilated their bodies.
"Tian Zen Temple, Pelican Monk, with two strings of prayer beads around his neck."
Jiang He tilted his head slightly. The Pelican Monk was looking at the ground in horror at this moment. A gray energy attacked him, annihilating his waist and abdomen, and then expanded to his entire body.
General A read out the characteristics of the remnants that he had written down one by one, just like the King of Hell calling out his names, and the corresponding masters were killed one by one.
The people of the Martial Alliance in the city realized something was wrong and began to flee in all directions, but the evil guards had already blocked the city gates and captured and imprisoned all of them.
Overnight, all the defenders of Tongguan were killed.
Jiang He rubbed his brows. The Hell Black Death was extremely efficient, but it only counted as killing. It was difficult to use it directly to create evil soldiers, unless he was willing to spend time and energy to eliminate them. Otherwise, it would be faster to use the Black Death to break into Guanzhong from the beginning.
"Go into the city and rest."
"Here."
