Chapter 971: War of Destroying the Nation
The ancient ship sailed over Zhongzhou, and could clearly see the scene below.
There are places with beautiful mountains and clear waters, where the aura is as thick as mist, gushing and surging, and there are also places with all kinds of evil spirits, where ghosts cry and wolves howl at night.
In the incomparably vast area of Zhongzhou, there are countless dynasties, sects and aristocratic families, occupying countless lands.
But despite this, there are still a large number of Jedi secrets, mountains and rivers in the entire Zhongzhou, which have never been set foot by monks. They are either full of opportunities or full of murderous opportunities.
Next, during the few days of sailing in Zhongzhou, in addition to comprehending the Six Paths of Reincarnation Fist, Qin Feng just signed in every day, and the rewards were very generous.
One day at noon, the ancient ship was sailing, but suddenly heard a deafening sound ahead, like ten thousand horses galloping.
Faintly, there were screams and roars.
"There's a big battle there!" Chu Xianxian exclaimed.
The place she was pointing at was an ancient and majestic city, with faint patterns of light shining on the walls, boosting the city's defense.
But despite this, there are still a lot of cracks in this city, which are covered with scarlet blood and bone-deep corpses.
There are a large number of monks wearing different costumes, carrying various treasures, and are constantly bombarding the city.
And the soldiers rushing out of the city, riding ferocious beasts, kept charging, trying to repel a large number of monks outside. Every time they charged, a large number of people were beheaded, and the ground was already bleeding into rivers.
It's a pity that there are too many monks besieging the city. Even though they killed countless enemies, they still couldn't repel them.
"This is a war of extermination."
Tang Rui looked over and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this city should be the imperial city of the Western Shu Dynasty. Their battles with the hostile dynasties resulted in successive defeats and they were captured and plundered. Now only the imperial city."
"The imperial city of the Western Shu Dynasty?"
Chu Xianxian had never heard of this dynasty before, and then asked in confusion: "But why do the people who attacked the city look like monks from different forces! They don't seem to be from the same dynasty."
"Different from other domains, even though the dynasties in Zhongzhou are not strong now, many of them have actually been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years. They have experienced countless times of rise and fall. The defense of the imperial city is amazing, and it is often the most difficult to capture. of.
If you want to take it by force, you will pay an extremely painful price. "
Tang Rui explained: "So, when a dynasty has only one imperial city left, their rival dynasty will issue a reward.
Any monk, at any time, as long as he can break through the imperial city, he can get extremely generous rewards. "
After a pause, he continued: "After the reward is announced, there will be a large number of monks who are interested in the reward, and they will rush to find a way to seize the imperial city after hearing the news.
Because there is no time limit for rewards, this kind of siege can take as short as a few years or as long as a hundred years. It can be launched at any time and retreat at any time. It is even used as a training ground for some sect disciples until the people in the imperial city are completely exhausted Continue to resist. "
This method of siege is almost unique to Zhongzhou.
Because the dynasties in other domains are difficult to have inheritances of tens of thousands of years like the dynasties of Zhongzhou, the defense of the imperial city is simply not the same.
"The people who guard the city must be so desperate." Chu Xianxian couldn't help but said.
"The world of cultivation is just like this." Tang Rui shook his head helplessly.
He controlled the ancient ship and wanted to bypass the battlefield ahead.
And at this moment, the sound of fighting ahead became more intense.
"Boom!"
In the sky, dozens of treasures slammed into the city wall of the Western Shu Imperial City at the same time, shaking it violently, and the cracks in the city wall that had already appeared in the first place became even bigger.
"The city is about to be broken. If we continue to attack the city, we must capture Hua Ruoli alive, and we must not let her escape."
"Haha... One of the top ten beauties in the Southern Region of Zhongzhou, if you can let her serve for one night, the reward for breaking the imperial city is not worth it."
“…”
Excited voices came and went.
The monks who attacked the city worked harder and harder to bombard the city.
Although the soldiers guarding the city were loyal, they were still terrified when they saw this scene.
Once the city is broken, they will be beaten to pieces by the monks who rush in, and their family, relatives and friends in the imperial city will also suffer disaster.
"Wow!"
However, at this moment, above the imperial city, a radiant divine light suddenly erupted, containing endless vitality, which turned into ten thousand rays of light and sprinkled everywhere in the imperial city.
For a while, the soldiers who were touched by these brilliance began to recover quickly from their injuries.
Even the defensive formation of the city wall has been strengthened to a certain extent under this brilliance.
"How is this going?"
The monks who attacked the city were all startled, with a dazed look on their faces.
Tang Rui, who was controlling the ancient ship to circle around, was also very surprised, not knowing what happened.
And at this moment, the radiant aura above the imperial city dissipated, and a girl with black hair like a cloud appeared in everyone's eyes. She had bright eyes and white teeth. Although her face was pale and she looked weak, she still couldn't hide it. Absolute beauty.
Impressively, she is one of the top ten beauties in the Southern Region of Zhongzhou, Hua Ruoli!
"Shh!"
Her robe fluttered, as if she was Ling Bo's banished fairy, falling from the sky onto the city wall.
Seeing this, the generals defending the city hurried forward.
"Princess, you should use that power to escape when the city is broken, not to help defend the city!" He said very sadly.
Because in his opinion, the destruction of the city is inevitable.
Even if it can be delayed for a while, it cannot be delayed for a lifetime.
No one can save the Western Shu Dynasty.
If Hua Ruoli used this power to defend the city, he would completely lose the chance of escaping alive, and he might suffer all kinds of humiliation.
"The soldiers in the city have defended the imperial city for ten years like a day. As a princess of the dynasty, how can I always think of lingering and fleeing when the city is destroyed." Hua Ruoli said.
During the several battles with the hostile dynasties, with the loss of important cities one after another, her father and several royal brothers have all died in battle.
She is the only one who can stand out among the royal family. At this time, she is unwilling to retreat.
"But..." The city guard wanted to say something else.
"Don't talk about it, let the soldiers take a good rest. In a short time, these people should not attack again." Hua Ruoli said.
"Okay." The city guard could only say.
The monks outside the city saw that the defensive formation was strengthened again, and howled all over the field. For more than ten years, I don’t know how many monks have attacked this city. Now they think that they will be able to break through the city today, and they can receive a lot of rewards after searching. .
But I didn't expect that Hua Ruoli still had a hole card, and he showed it at this time.
"The next time I come and attack the city, Hua Ruoli will not be able to survive or die!" A monk said angrily, his only taboo spiritual weapon was sacrificed just now.
Not being able to break through the imperial city today is simply a blood loss for him.
The other monks were all threatening angrily and preparing to leave. Now their condition could no longer sustain the siege.
"Boom!"
However, at this moment, a dazzling Buddha's light suddenly appeared here.
