Chapter 43
The Golden Scale Guard is one of the famous monk legions in Tianhe City. They are all composed of physical trainers and have unimaginable field combat capabilities.
This is an iron guard specially established by the human race for the second war between Dao and Demon, and it is one of the human race's war heritage.
The threshold to enter the Golden Scale Guard is the eighth realm.
That is to say, these dozens of Golden Scale Guards are a dozen or so eight-level monks, and they are also a dozen or so eight-level monks who are extremely good at field combat and cooperate with each other tacitly.
This is an extremely terrifying force, and it is not easy to mobilize it usually.
Because, in order to form such an army of monks, the resources consumed are too staggering, and they cannot afford to lose it.
You must know that monks are rebellious and unrestrained.
This is especially true for monks who can cultivate to the Tribulation Transcendence Realm.
You put them against the demons, they won't say anything.
But if you want to formulate various rules and regulations to restrict him, that is simply a dream.
However, the formed monk corps will indeed exert a stronger combat power.
Just like in the ordinary world, a well-coordinated, well-trained, and disciplined army, as long as ten people, is enough to kill a hundred stragglers.
The same goes for monks.
The strength of the human race is obviously weaker than that of the demon race, so it needs to make up for it in other aspects. Forming a monk army is undoubtedly a very suitable direction.
Under such considerations, Tianhe City made a decision.
Since it is not realistic for the Eighth Realm cultivators to change their nature, then they can simply cultivate the Eighth Realm cultivators themselves!
Therefore, after the deliberation, the chief monks in Tianhe City began to issue recruitment orders for all the monks in the four and five realms, enlisting them to join the army with generous conditions.
Compared with the cultivators of Transcending Tribulation Realm whose personality has solidified, those cultivators of Nascent Soul Realm and Void Refining Realm naturally have more room for correction.
But the biggest problem is that eight-level monks can't be cultivated only by resources and training, and more depends on the monk's own talent and character.
so,
Even when enlisting in the army, Tianhe City has already conducted strict screening, and the selected young monks are all young monks with strong talents and excellent temperaments that they are optimistic about. They are staffed with powerful monks to teach.
But in the end, the probability of these people getting out of the eighth realm monks is still less than half.
With such a huge ratio of effort to output, in today's world, apart from Tianhe City, there is no longer any sect or force capable of forming an army of monks with the eighth realm monk as the entry threshold.
As the saying goes, good steel should be used on the blade, and the Golden Scale Guard is so difficult to form, so it has always adhered to the principle of raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a while.
Normally, the Golden Scale Guard is Tianhe City's absolute treasure, and if it is not forced to, it will never be easily dispatched.
This time, the reason why a dozen or so Golden Scale Guards left Tianhe City and hid in Heiyun Mountain was all led by Shuiyue Guanzhu.
Seeing that the frontier war is urgent, but the traitor inside the Huanling Sect has not been caught for a long time, the determination of Shuiyue Guanzhu has become more and more firm, and he must seize this opportunity to succeed in one fell swoop.
After all, if there is an accident this time, if you want to find out so many clues next time, you don't know when you will have to wait.
Besides, in this situation, she really doesn't have the heart to play the game of hiding and looking for and playing small fights with Huan Lingzong.
Therefore, Shuiyue Guanzhu directly asked Tianhe City for help.
It is true that the Golden Scale Guards are difficult to mobilize, but the chief monk in Tianhe City is Tianhe Sword Immortal Chu Mushen, and below them is the master of their Tianji Temple, Qi Butian.
For the master of Tianji, mobilizing a few Golden Scale Guards is really not a big deal.
Therefore, Shuiyue Guanzhu quietly borrowed these dozens of Golden Scale Guards very smoothly.
Whether it is from a strategic point of view or from a specific action response point of view, Shuiyue Guanzhu has been extremely rigorous.
If everything went according to normal conditions, Taoist Yunxuan who came here with the purpose of attacking the mountain and destroying the cross-domain teleportation circle, and the Huanlingzong monks led by him, would be executed immediately and be eliminated by the human race in the name of Annei.
…………
The sound of the bombardment of spells resounded through the sky and the earth, and the light curtain of the Heiyunshan Mountain Protection Formation rippled in circles.
A dozen Jinlinwei monks looked up at the Huanlingzong monks who were attacking outside Heiyun Mountain, with calm expressions and full of fighting spirit.
The tall and thin Taoist in the lead ordered softly: "Shoot!"
boom! boom! boom! boom! boom!
Outside Heiyun Mountain, the Huanlingzong monks led by Taoist Yunxuan and the huge team of monsters all unleashed their accumulated attacks.
The color of the sky and the earth changed for a moment, and countless rays of light shone, condensing into waves of heart-pounding fluctuations, and then bombarded on the large formation protecting the mountain of Heiyun Mountain.
"This formation can't last too long!" Taoist Yunxuan couldn't help becoming more complacent when he saw the mountain protection formation showing a precarious posture amidst their continuous attacks.
Suddenly, dozens of dazzling golden lights came into his eyes.
Before Taoist Yunxuan realized what was going on, dozens of terrifying breath waves descended instantly.
"Tianhe City Golden Scale Guard!" After he realized what the golden light was, the attack came.
Those dozens of Golden Scale Guard cultivators formed a battle formation, condensed their own power into a ball, turned into a beam of light, and blasted directly at him like a crushing one.
"Not good!" Facing this terrifying attack, Taoist Yunxuan immediately cast his evasion technique, and with a swoosh, he avoided the beam of light dangerously.
But he escaped, and the Huanlingzong monks around him were not so lucky.
boom!
The thick beam of light swept across, and immediately the body of a Huanlingzong cultivator in the first calamity state was directly smashed by it, turning into a blood mist and blasting away.
"Phew, what a powerful attack!" Taoist Yunxuan, who barely escaped the attack, looked at his companion's miserable situation, took a deep breath with lingering fear, and a trace of shock and anger flashed in his eyes.
If he reacted a little slower and forcibly endured this attack, even if he didn't die, he would lose a layer of skin.
In mid-air, a dozen or so Golden Scale Guard cultivators who had just appeared stood in the air, forming a battle formation, and a terrifying aura spread.
At this time, none of them spoke, and they all silently looked at a tall and thin Taoist ahead.
The temple is a Taoist.
Commander in chief of their operation.
"Yunxuan, you are actually the inner ghost of Huanlingzong..." Taoist Diancai looked at Taoist Yunxuan from afar and said coldly.
At this time, Heiyun Mountain had not received the news of the fall of Longchengguan, and the intelligence of Taoist Diancai still remained at the point where there were several high-level monks in the Huanlingzong who had fornicated the demons.
He didn't know that Huanlingzong had already changed from Daozong to Mozong.
And Taoist Yunxuan is the elder of Huanlingzong, a monk of the Four Tribulations Realm, and he can be regarded as a famous figure in Huanlingzong, so Taoist Diancai can naturally recognize him.
"Diancai, why did you and Brother Jinlinwei appear here?" Taoist Yunxuan also looked at Taoist Diancai, his original complacent expression had long since disappeared, and it became gloomy.
"Naturally, it is to deal with you." Taoist Diancai said coldly: "Shuiyue told me that there is an inner ghost in Huanlingzong. I didn't expect you, Yunxuan, to be one of the inner ghosts."
"Shuiyue?" Taoist Yunxuan quickly regained his composure after being shocked at the beginning, and sneered, "It's amazing, she has found out so many things in such a short time after taking over Zhishoulou ?"
At this moment, he couldn't help feeling a little scared.
It has only been half a year since Shuiyue Guanzhu served as the owner of Zhishou Building and visited Zhonglingyu in person, but she even knew the news that her side was planning to attack Heiyun Mountain.
If she was given more time, I really don't know how many things would have to be exposed.
Fortunately, they have officially launched the battle of seizing souls, and it doesn't matter whether these things are exposed or not.
Taoist Yunxuan took another look at Diancai and the dozen or so Golden Scaled Guards he led, and suddenly chuckled and said, "Is this the confidence you use to deal with me?"
"Unfortunately," he said with a sinister smile, "this is far from enough!"
Seeing Taoist Yunxuan's reaction, Taoist Diancai suddenly felt his heart skip a beat.
In fact, Taoist Yunxuan was only at the level of four kalpas, but he was at five kalpas, and the dozen or so Golden Scale Guard monks he brought, the lowest of which had two kalpas, formed a battle formation, which also had the combat power of four kalpas.
Coupled with the fact that there are still monks from the Temple of Heaven who were stationed at Heiyun Mountain, based on this comparison, it stands to reason that they should be absolutely sure in this battle.
But Taoist Yunxuan's strange behavior really gave Taoist Diancai a bad premonition.
"It seems that you still have some powerful killing moves that you haven't made yet." Taoist Diancai smiled lightly, and at the same time was testing.
"You'll know later." Taoist Yunxuan was still at ease, and even teased him.
An undisguised murderous intent flashed across Taoist Diancai's eyes, and he finally lost the patience to talk nonsense with Taoist Yunxuan.
"Start!" he shouted.
Immediately, hundreds of monks who had been preparing for a long time appeared all around, holding formation flags and waving vigorously.
The invisible secret pattern suddenly emerged and began to ripple in the surrounding space.
Under the influence of these secret lines, the fluctuations in the entire space seem to freeze and no longer flow.
"It's a space blockade, and the preparations are extremely complete." Taoist Yunxuan murmured, recognizing that it was a space blockade formation.
As for the purpose, it is obviously to catch the turtle in the urn and cut off their retreat.
"You can't escape!" Taoist Diancai yelled angrily, leading the Jinlinwei monks to charge forward, with a murderous intent.
"It's just... who told you that I'm going to run away..." There was a gleam of excitement in Taoist Yunxuan's eyes, sensing that the Jinlinwei monk was getting closer to him, he suddenly smiled Blooming, "Very good, very good, good time!"
The next moment, he patted the spirit animal bag with golden patterns embroidered on his waist.
With a buzzing sound, a ray of golden light shot up into the sky, filling the sky all of a sudden.
What followed was an overwhelming terrifying coercion, which made the space that had just frozen start to tremble.
It was a giant golden bird, spreading its wings soaring to the clouds. It was released by Taoist Yunxuan, and appeared in the sight of everyone, like a golden god, overlooking all the Golden Scaled Guard monks in front, and the golden feathers on its body shone brighter than the Taoist armor on them.
It squints in all directions, and its aura is terrifying.
"Ninth-rank...ninth-rank monster!" The moment the giant golden bird appeared, the figure of the talented Taoist stopped suddenly, his eyes filled with horror, "How is that possible?!"
It is impossible for a beast cultivator's beast pet to surpass the beast cultivator's own cultivation level in a big realm.
This is the iron rule of beast cultivators.
But the Taoist Yunxuan in front of him broke this iron rule, owning a ninth-rank animal pet with an eighth-level cultivation base.
This incident shocked the Taoist priest even more than the ninth-rank monster itself.
If the reasons for this can be replicated, it will bring an unprecedented revolution to the beast cultivator, which will give the beast cultivator a large level of improvement in combat power.
Daoist Diancai's heart immediately became hot - the strength of the beast cultivator is the strength of the human race!
Afterwards, he calmed down, with fear in his heart, and a chill came out.
Now is not the time to think about this, the problem now is, this is a ninth-rank monster, and there is not a ninth-level monk among them at this moment, how to fight? !
The giant golden bird raised its head to the sky without hesitation and let out a long howl, before swooping down towards Taoist Diancai and monk Jinlinwei.
Its body was full of divine fire, burning fiercely, and the golden light became even more dazzling.
The golden giant bird's wings spread across the sky, and it flapped forward. Suddenly, the fire surged down the sky, and the red waves submerged towards the Taoist priest.
"You all have to die." Taoist Yunxuan looked at each other coldly, very calm.
Indeed, it is impossible for a cultivator of the eighth realm to have a beast pet of the ninth rank.
The faction of human beast cultivators has been developing for so many years, and no one can break this iron rule, let alone their inner demons.
The reason why Taoist Yunxuan was able to summon a ninth-rank monster was because this giant golden bird was not actually his beast pet, but...
One of the three souls of his body!
Taoist Yunxuan's body is a ninth-grade heart demon.
It's just that for him, the cultivation system of the human race is indeed too obscure.
In addition, Taoist Yuan Yunxuan's aptitude is not very outstanding, so after he seized the spirit of Taoist Yunxuan and practiced to the Four Tribulations Realm, his cultivation stagnated.
Although his human soul split soul has only the cultivation base of the eighth realm, the cultivation bases of his other two souls are already equal to those of the main body, and both have reached the ninth rank realm.
This time he was ordered to conquer Heiyun Mountain, and in order to ensure nothing would go wrong, he specially brought his monster soul with him.
As a result, it really came in handy.
…………
Forming a battle formation, the Golden Scale Guard cultivator, who is brave and invincible, has encountered the most tyrannical opponent.
The breath between heaven and earth was suddenly turbulent.
The frozen void began to tremble.
From time to time, a Golden Scale Guard cultivator was knocked into the air, flying backwards, and scarlet blood flowed from the shining golden armor.
It was indeed an ambush.
But it was no longer the ambush by Jinlinwei monks against the ghosts in Huanlingzong.
It was an ambush against the Golden Scale Guard by a ninth-grade heart demon.
Golden Scale Guard, known as invincible in field battles.
But how can they be invincible in the face of a terrifying monster that is a level higher than them today?
The Taoist Diancai looked at the Tianjiguan monk who was falling down and the Jinlinwei monk who was getting more and more seriously injured, his voice was colder than the cold wind in the deep winter.
He said: "Golden Scale Guard, there is no retreat, there is death but no life."
Therefore, the Golden Scale Guard cultivator still charged forward fearlessly.
I don't know how long it has been.
The noisy voice stopped suddenly.
After a while, there was another loud bang.
A shocking explosion of light came out.
The sky is full of spiritual light.
Heiyun Mountain, the cross-domain teleportation circle of Tianji Temple was destroyed!
.........
There are layers of dark clouds in the sky, which are extremely thick, making the sky look like night.
Dozens of escaping lights appeared outside Heiyun Mountain.
Moments later, Duan Guang landed on Heiyun Mountain.
It can be seen that the Heiyun Mountain, which was prosperous in the past, is now full of potholes and messes, and there are traces of burnt black everywhere.
In the escaping light, the figure of Shuiyue Guanzhu emerged.
She stepped on the ground and looked around.
The ground was full of bloodstains that had become dark purple or even black due to drying up.
The corpses of hundreds of monks of Tianji Temple and dozens of Jinlinwei and Diancai Taoists fell in a pool of blood.
In addition, there are many monsters and the corpses of "Huan Lingzong monks" lying here and there, all missing arms and legs.
The Dao armor with layers of scales on the golden scale guard's body has become dilapidated, and the Dao pattern engraved on it has been destroyed.
The blood stained the golden scales red.
It is conceivable that what a thrilling and bloody battle has been experienced here before.
But no matter what, in the end, Huan Lingzong won and achieved his goal.
The Master Shuiyue looked at the scene in front of him, clenched his hands tightly, his knuckles turned slightly white.
A gust of cold wind blew by, bringing a bone-chilling chill.
But at this moment, what everyone felt was a chill in their hearts.
Stuffed with swallow fat and condensed night purple.
