Chapter 1631 Fighting
The moon was as round as ink, and the sky was full of stars. The Second Army set out from Yulin County, and the mighty team marched northward.
The war was as smooth as before. The troops led by the commander of the Second Army were unstoppable, and the victory reports came frequently. In just a few months, they took over most of Chengxuan County and surrounded Chengxuan County.
On the deck of the Leizi ship, Tang Ning, Zhu Zhiqing, and Feng Yuliang all stood at the bow. In the distance, a beam of light shot out and landed in front of the three people, revealing the figure of a middle-aged man, the deputy captain of the Second Army.
"Report to Senior Tang, Senior Zhu, and Senior Kong. Our headquarters has surrounded Chengxuan County, please give instructions."
"Don't hesitate, just attack the city!"
"Yes." The man responded and left.
Outside Chengxuan County, the coalition warships had surrounded it tightly, and the overwhelming warships slowly approached the city wall.
The sky-blackening artillery shells fell on the enemy camp, the air clouds rose up, and the space vibrated like ripples.
After the battle started, it soon entered a white-hot stage. Countless monsters in the city rushed out, crossed the city walls, and fought with the coalition forces.
Various magical skills covered the entire world. From afar, the colorful lights kept changing, with a gorgeous beauty.
However, when you look closely, it is indeed very cruel. The bloody rain and corpses are gurgling down, and the hissing, roaring and desperate wailing roars resound through the sky.
The Mubei coalition did not deploy a large formation outside the city walls, leaving only a defense team, and there are multiple camps and strongholds in the city.
From noon to dusk, the battle outside the city finally decided the winner, and the Mubei coalition troops fled. The second army followed into the city and began to capture various camps.
Tang Ning's direct team followed behind slowly. On the fourth day of entering the city, just as the Second Legion's various units were fighting in full swing to capture the city, a huge figure covered the sky and attacked everyone.
"Peacock King." Feng Yuliang's face changed drastically on the deck of Leizi's ship, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he blurted out.
"Isn't it in Pingyuan County? Why is it here?" Zhu Zhiqing's face suddenly became very ugly.
The two looked at Tang Ning at the same time, knowing that only he could fight against the Peacock King.
"Finally here." Tang Ning was calm. He had expected this in his heart. Since entering Pingyuan County, the progress along the way has been too smooth, especially when Peacock King Yunfei was personally in charge of Pingyuan County. The Mubei coalition showed no fighting spirit, which was not in line with common sense. It was obviously luring them to go deeper.
Knowing this, he still played the game, because he had made sufficient arrangements. No matter what ambush the other party had, with his current strength and Yan Jiuzheng, the bodyguard who was secretly guarding, he was enough to deal with any threat.
Tang Ning looked around and didn't see Yan Jiuzheng, but he believed that he must be hiding far away.
He didn't completely trust the returnees from the abandoned land of Tianyuan Realm. These people might betray him, but not now.
If he died here, the secret of the space channel connecting the fairyland would be buried, which was a result they could never accept.
"Leave this person to me." Before Tang Ning finished speaking, he had left the Leizi ship and headed towards the huge figure.
The Peacock King did not hide his figure, quietly approach and then attack everyone, but showed his true form, spread his huge wings, swept across the coalition forces on the front line, and came to the Leizi ship with extremely powerful power.
It was not its style to sneak around, and it didn't even bother to do so.
The huge golden wings sparkled under the bright sun, and the golden feather crown on the top of its head showed the king's aura, and the dark green pupils did not contain any emotional fluctuations.
The two gradually approached, and the Peacock King opened his huge mouth and let out a sharp long whistle.
In an instant, the sky collapsed and the earth split apart. Everything within a radius of hundreds of miles was turned into dust. Several warships that had not yet moved away were visibly turned into debris. The monks inside first bled from all seven orifices, and then their bodies broke apart inch by inch, turning into blood foam.
The surrounding mountains and hills all collapsed, and the ground broke apart from under its feet, spreading forward. The space collapsed on a large scale under its roar.
Visible ripples followed one after another, sweeping in like an ocean, tearing the space apart wherever they passed.
Tang Ning flew back, clasped his hands together, and muttered something. The whole person was surrounded by light, and he was elegant and ethereal.
At the same time, a large amount of spiritual power gathered from the heaven and earth. From all directions, the spiritual power of the heaven and earth within a radius of hundreds of miles poured into his sleeves like a tiger pouncing on its food.
As a large amount of spiritual power poured in, his sleeves gradually swelled up. When his sleeves were bulging with both arms, he put down his hands and waved his sleeves. In an instant, the whole world was dark, and yellow mist rolled out from his sleeves, immediately covering the world.
Without any sound of collision, the ruptured space caused by the roar of the Peacock King and the ripples that rolled in like rolling over the sky were all shrouded in the yellow mist.
The next moment, the yellow mist disappeared without a trace, leaving only Tang Ning standing alone.
At this time, Feng Yuliang and Zhu Zhiqing, who were in the direct escort team of the coalition forces, had left the warship and greeted the other two Mubei Mahayana monks.
The Peacock King did not come alone. Although he was the first to ride, he was followed by a group of Mubei elite monks, including the two Mahayana early monks.
While Tang Ning and the Peacock King were fighting, the two Mahayana monks had already passed by from the left and right sides and headed towards the direct escort warship.
They ignored Tang Ning, probably because they had discussed a countermeasure, or perhaps the Peacock King had told them not to get involved in the fight between the two.
With the character of the Peacock King, it is impossible for him to do such a thing as bullying the weak with the strong when facing a rising star whose cultivation is not as good as his. For example, to deal with a mid-stage Mahayana cultivator, he needs the help of others. This is an extreme humiliation for him and he cannot accept it.
The four of them started fighting in the blink of an eye. Feng Yuliang faced the white-faced Mahayana cultivator who attacked from the left, and Zhu Zhiqing faced the Mahayana demon cultivator who attacked from the right.
The white-faced Mahayana cultivator put his palms together and muttered something in his mouth. The light around him burst out, and a huge Buddha condensed behind him. As the Buddha turned from virtual to real and opened his eyes, two golden lights shot out from his eyes in an instant, and the space was slowly torn apart wherever he passed.
Feng Yuliang was not in a hurry. His palms turned into a circle, and a black round shield engraved with complicated runes emerged.
The golden light shot onto the black round shield, and the two colors of light intertwined and gradually merged into one. When the two golden lights disappeared, the runes on the black round shield surged, and two more golden lights were reflected to attack the pale man.
The man put his hands together, and stood still. The Buddha behind him was surrounded by golden light, condensing into a round shield to block the golden light.
On the other side, Zhu Zhiqing and the demon Mahayana had also fought.
The dark-faced Mahayana demon put his hands together, and the blood cloud in the sky surged, and his body disappeared into the blood cloud. The huge blood cloud covered the sky and the sun, covering Zhu Zhiqing, and golden thunder rolled inside.
Zhu Zhiqing was in the middle, holding a huge vermilion pen, and the tip of the pen was slightly pointed, and the golden thunder that shot down all stopped moving and froze in place.
The scene of the four people fighting was lively, but in fact, it was all thunder and rain, mostly tentative attacks and defenses, and no real action was taken.
Both sides were focused on Tang Ning and the Peacock King. They all knew that these two were the key figures in determining success or failure.
Tang Ning glanced around the battlefield. In less than a dozen breaths, his sleeves shrank visibly, and a large amount of spiritual energy poured out from inside.
Although the magical power in the sleeves was a unique skill of the Taixuan Sect, it was still not enough to face a fierce man like the Peacock King.
After the independent space was broken, the Peacock King had approached him. At this time, he had put away his true appearance and turned into a beautiful boy with red lips and white teeth.
His meat bun-sized fist hit him on the head, and Tang Ning met it with his palm. With a loud bang, the huge force of the two people's collision made the whole world shake continuously, and the space was torn apart instantly.
Tang Ning had two deep wounds on his arms, and his skin was torn. Although his body had been baptized by the blood of the Black Tortoise, it was still slightly inferior to the top demons like the Peacock King. In this head-on physical battle, no one could compare with such a big demon.
Only the top demon bloodline could compete. No matter how much the cultivators practiced their bodies, they could not reach this level.
The green spiritual power surged in his body, and the wounds on his arms were immediately restored.
The Peacock King would not give him a chance to breathe. There were only continuous rumbling sounds. The two people's fists were like a violent storm. Every blow shook the world and shattered the space.
Soon, the two had fought hundreds of times.
In the high-intensity physical confrontation, Tang Ning was already at a clear disadvantage. The bones in his body creaked and broke several times, but under the surge of green spiritual energy, they recovered very quickly and were not affected at all.
Seeing the Peacock King's punch coming again, he moved his mind and black spots in his body appeared in his palm.
In an instant, the world fell into darkness, covering the area of a thousand feet.
This was the strategy he had set from the beginning. He knew that he could not trap the Peacock King with the world in his sleeves, and his real purpose was to lure the other party into a close combat with him and kill this powerful enemy with the death field.
This was his most powerful magical power, and the range that could be deployed was only a thousand feet, so it must be used when the other party was close.
Before that, he had been fighting with the other party in the flesh, just to reduce the other party's vigilance, and unexpectedly, he used the death field to cover the other party.
The plan went smoothly as he thought, but the ending was not what he wanted.
The moment the black light spot floated on his palm, the Peacock King's pupils suddenly shrank, and the whole person disappeared in an instant. When the dead spirit field was deployed, it had retreated dozens of miles.
Seeing that the dark field submerged the original location, the Peacock King narrowed his eyes slightly, and the corners of his eyes twitched unconsciously a few times.
