Chapter 302: Siege
Ancient Beast Mountain Range.
In the first city.
Yan Yun has led the army to garrison here.
"What is the situation of the Star Dynasty now?"
He looked at a spy in front of him and asked.
The latter answered respectfully.
"General, the Star Dynasty is only 800 miles away and will arrive tomorrow!"
800 miles!
If it were a mortal army, it would be impossible to arrive so fast.
But as an empire, even ordinary soldiers have good cultivation, which means that many aspects must be taken into consideration when marching.
Otherwise.
Let alone a day.
Even if it is half a day.
It is estimated that the army of the Star Dynasty has already arrived at the city.
"Continue to explore, and report any news as soon as possible!"
Yan Yun waved his hand and asked the other party to retreat.
Then.
He ordered people to come and report the situation of the other eight cities.
The nine cities of Zhenxie are mutually supported. Although the first city is the main defense location, the importance of the other eight cities cannot be ignored.
After learning that the eight cities had made preparations for defense, Yan Yun's face did not look relaxed at all.
Because the Xingchen Dynasty was coming with great momentum, with tens of millions of troops and quasi-emperor soldiers in hand, it was clear that this battle would be extremely tragic.
Even if the Shenwu Dynasty could win, it would probably be a tragic victory.
However.
Yan Yun had no intention of retreating.
As a general of the dynasty, he should lead the troops.
Now that Gu Yang asked him to guard the nine cities of Zhenxie, Yan Yun would naturally not retreat a single step.
Either win!
Or die!
There is no third possibility!
At this moment.
A guard hurried in from outside.
"General, someone claiming to be from the Red Dust Immortal Sect is seeking to see you outside!"
"Red Dust Immortal Sect?"
Yan Yun looked puzzled.
Such a force in the Central Region was naturally a little unfamiliar to him.
However.
Yan Yun still decided to meet him.
——
Inside Gu Family Manor.
Gu Qingfeng finished a day of practice.
The Nirvana Dao Sutra has already broken through the threshold of the Divine Change Chapter and advanced to the Dao Palace Chapter.
However.
For his current ninth-level cultivation in the Saint Realm, the breakthrough of the Nirvana Dao Sutra does not increase much.
After all, the advancement from the Divine Change Realm to the Dao Palace Realm is nothing in the eyes of the Saint.
Not to mention just entering the first level of the Dao Palace Chapter, even if it breaks through to the ninth level of the Dao Palace Chapter, there will not be any big changes for Gu Qingfeng.
However.
This does not mean that there is no change at all.
Any technique can be superimposed because the cultivator has not really reached the limit in the current realm, and there is still room for improvement, so multiple techniques can be superimposed to make one's own strength and foundation become stronger.
If a cultivator really reaches the extreme in a certain realm, then even if he practices more techniques, it will be useless.
This point.
When Gu Qingfeng was at the level of body refining, this situation had already occurred.
Until now.
Gu Qingfeng felt that he had reached the limit at the level of the Divine Change Realm.
However, in terms of Dao Palace realm, there is still some room for improvement, but not too much.
No matter how much room there is for improvement, Gu Qingfeng wants to make himself reach the end at every level as much as possible.
Only in this way.
He can look down on his peers.
The half-saint suppresses the great saint.
It comes from this kind of confidence.
Of course.
This is also due to the ancient immortal body.
However.
In Gu Qingfeng's opinion.
If there is really a cultivator who can reach the true limit in every realm.
Then the opponent's combat power may not be half a point worse than the divine body of the same level.
If he still reaches the limit while possessing a divine body, then the combination of the two will make the combat power extremely terrifying.
"If I can push the Saint Realm to its limit, with my Saint Nineth Layer cultivation, even without using other means, I might be able to compete with the Saint King.
Even if I take a step back, I believe it will be no problem to be on par with the Great Saint Nineth Layer."
Like himself now, Gu Qingfeng estimated that if he did not use other trump cards, his strength would be equivalent to the Great Saint Sixth Layer at best.
If he activated the three major heavenly veins, he should be able to be on par with the Saint King.
If he used the Emperor's Weapon again, he could not be sure whether he could compete with the Quasi-Emperor, but he should not be afraid in the Saint King Realm.
But there is a premise here, that is, the Saint King does not have the Emperor's Weapon in his hand.
If there is an Emperor's Weapon, it is another matter.
After all, the stronger the cultivation, the more the power of the Emperor's Weapon can be exerted.
Like Gu Qingfeng now, with the Saint Nineth Layer cultivation, he cannot really fully exert the power of the Emperor's Weapon.
The current Evil-Slaying Knife.
The tremendous power contained in it made Gu Qingfeng a little frightened.
"My cultivation is not enough. If I were the emperor now, why would I have to be restrained in my actions!"
"Whether it is the Star Dynasty or the evil spirit, I will suppress it together!"
Gu Qingfeng stepped out of the Grinding Knife Hall and looked in the direction of the Ancient Beast Mountain Range. The Taoism appeared in his eyes, as if he could easily penetrate the void, and the murderous aura turned into a blood cloud.
The army has not arrived.
The murderous intention has arrived!
"It seems that the army of the Star Dynasty is about to arrive!"
Gu Qingfeng muttered to himself, and then took a step forward. The space shook, and his figure disappeared in Gujiazhuang in an instant.
Since entering the Saint Realm, Gu Qingfeng has been in harmony with the world, and his control over the power of space has become more and more proficient.
No matter how fast the ordinary escape technique is, it cannot compare to direct space transfer.
Gu Qingfeng only took a few steps to appear in the first city from the capital.
Now.
In the City Lord's Mansion.
Yan Yun and many powerful people are gathered together.
There are former military generals, as well as powerful people from various forces who came to help after hearing the news.
Hongchen Xianzong!
Taixu Holy Land!
Biyun Dao Sect, etc.
When Gu Qingfeng appeared, no one noticed any clues.
It was not until his figure fell into everyone's sight that others suddenly reacted.
"Who is this person!"
On the side of Hongchen Xianzong, Ke Ze and Jiang Yuan's faces changed.
With their cultivation in the semi-saint realm, they could not detect any clues at all.
More importantly.
The person in front of them gave the two people a feeling that was as unpredictable as a bottomless abyss. Even if they looked at him for a second longer, they might sink into it.
With this change, the two looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.
"Saint!!"
You know.
They are both half-saints.
If they were both half-saints, they would never give them such a feeling.
But to say that he is a saint is absolutely impossible.
After all, how can someone become a saint in the Dharma Ending Age.
Unless——
The other party is an ancient saint.
But the person who came did not have the vicissitudes and decay of the ancient saint.
Just when many cultivators were secretly shocked, Yan Yun had already stood up in a hurry and bowed to Gu Qingfeng.
"I greet the emperor!"
"My son greets his father!"
Gu Xuan also stood up in a hurry to salute.
Behind him.
The strong men of Taixu Holy Land also bowed politely.
For Gu Qingfeng.
They are naturally not unfamiliar.
Not to mention how many times Gu Qingfeng had been to Taixu Holy Land, Jiuzhou is close to the East Region, so the forces in the East Region naturally could not be unfamiliar with him.
At this time.
Others also reacted that the person in front of them was Gu Qingfeng, the head of the Gu family.
After all, there was only one person who could be called the emperor by Yan Yun from beginning to end.
Immediately.
Ke Ze and others bowed their hands to greet.
"It turned out that it was the head of the Gu family in person. We have heard of his reputation for a long time. Today, we know that the rumors are true after seeing him!"
"You are too polite."
Gu Qingfeng also responded with a smile.
Reading the error-free version! 6=9+Shu_Bar first published this novel.
At this time.
Yan Yun respectfully invited Gu Qingfeng to the main seat, and then stood aside to introduce the identities of everyone present to Gu Qingfeng.
The latter also understood this in his heart.
Gu Qingfeng had already known the information about these sects and forces, but now was the first time he met them.
At a glance.
There are seven or eight strong men in the semi-saint realm here.
There are no less than thirty Dao Palace realm cultivators.
As for those below the Dao Palace realm, to be honest, they are not qualified to sit here.
Such a force also made Gu Qingfeng's heart fluctuate a little.
Yan Yun and others may not know, and only think that these forces are simply coming to help.
But Gu Qingfeng understands that these are the forces that many dead men can mobilize.
This is just the beginning. After hundreds of years of precipitation, such a force will definitely grow to a sufficiently amazing level.
However.
It's too early to say these now.
Gu Qingfeng looked at everyone and smiled indifferently.
"With your help this time, I believe that the Star Dynasty is not a worry!"
"Master Gu is joking. With your strength, even if I can't wait, I believe that the Star Dynasty will not cause much trouble."
Someone smiled flatteringly, and the words had already brought them closer.
Before actually meeting Gu Qingfeng, many non-Eastern Region cultivators had some doubts about this legendary strongest man in the End of the Dharma Era.
But after actually meeting Gu Qingfeng, these doubts were completely dissipated.
Especially some semi-saint realm masters, they could feel Gu Qingfeng's fear.
In this regard.
They could only sigh and say that there is no false reputation under a great reputation.
However.
Some people also looked worried.
"I heard that the Star Emperor Dynasty brought the Quasi-Emperor Weapon this time. Jiang Chen alone can't make a fuss, but the Quasi-Emperor Weapon contains the power of the Quasi-Emperor, which may be a big trouble."
As soon as these words came out.
The smiles on the faces of others also gradually disappeared, and they were replaced by a solemn look.
Quasi-Emperor Weapon!
These three words made them feel great pressure.
"I have heard of the reputation of the Star Emperor Bell for a long time, but it is not enough to destroy my Shenwu Dynasty with a Quasi-Emperor Weapon."
Gu Qingfeng spoke slowly, breaking the dull atmosphere directly.
His words.
Everyone felt inexplicably relieved.
Since this person is so confident, he must have a way to counter the Star Emperor Bell.
At this moment.
Gu Qingfeng looked outside, and the blood cloud formed by the killing had already come into view.
Even.
A faint smell of blood was floating in the air.
"They are coming!"
——
Outside the Ancient Beast Mountain Range.
The army was integrated.
Tens of millions of troops lined up in a row, with a huge momentum, and the silent murderous aura suppressed the sky and the earth, which made many cultivators who secretly tried to watch the battle horrified.
Such a large and elite army made these people smell the breath of death.
"The Ancient Beast Mountain Range is ahead!"
Jiang Chen stood in the void with his hands behind his back, looking indifferently in the direction of the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, and the Nine Cities of Zhenxie came into view.
Nine cities.
The army was stationed.
The momentum was also not small.
However.
Jiang Chen had no fear at all, looking at the Nine Cities of Zhenxie, his face showed a cold and murderous intent.
This battle.
He not only wanted to break through the Nine Cities of Zhenxie, but also led his troops to kill into Jiuzhou and destroy the Shenwu Dynasty.
Even if the Shenwu Dynasty had a strong man who was comparable to the Great Saint Realm, Jiang Chen was not afraid at all.
And his confidence.
It was the Star Emperor Bell in his Dantian.
With this quasi-emperor weapon, the opponent would definitely not be able to cause any trouble.
"Gu Yan!"
"Anyou!"
As soon as Jiang Chen finished speaking, the two of them flew forward in the air.
"General, any orders!"
"You two each lead half of the Tianji Army, and you must take the other eight cities in the shortest time. As for this city in front of you, I will be responsible for it!"
Jiang Chen ordered calmly.
Although he divided the 50 million Tianji Army in one go, Jiang Chen had enough confidence with the elite of the Tanlang Army in his hands.
Three million Tanlang Army.
Enough to crush everything.
In the past, Jiang Chen once led three million Tanlang Army to crush a dynasty and destroy an enemy army that was ten times larger than his own.
It can be said that.
The reputation of the Tanlang Army was earned through real fighting and killing, and it was by no means a trivial matter.
In fact.
It is not just the Tanlang Army.
Each of the other elite armies of the Xingchen Empire has gone through blood baptism, and it is unknown how much killing has been done before they can become elite step by step.
After hearing this.
Gu Yan and the others naturally accepted the order.
Soon.
The Tianji Army was divided into several parts and directly attacked the other eight cities.
At the same time.
The generals of the eight cities that suppress evil were also prepared to resist the strong enemy.
When they saw the army coming, a rain of arrows covering the sky and the sun poured down.
For a while.
Countless blood flowers bloomed on the battlefield.
These arrows were not ordinary arrows, but arrows made of special minerals, which were enough to break the protective qi of the cultivators.
Even if the weakest of these soldiers in the army were cultivators who had completed the fifth level of body refining, they could not resist the sharpness of the arrows.
But soon.
The Xingchen Empire responded.
A large number of cultivators in the God Change Realm flew in the air, trying to climb the city wall first.
But at this moment.
There was a divine light rising in the ancient city, and a large formation exploded. The terrifying pressure fell, and all the cultivators in the God Change Realm who tried to climb the city wall exploded in an instant, turning into a blood mist that scattered all over the sky.
Seeing this scene.
Gu Yan and An You both changed their faces.
"Formation!"
They didn't expect that there was a formation guarding the Eight Cities.
And judging from the strength of this formation, it was able to instantly kill a group of Divine Transformation Realm cultivators. It was obviously not as simple as an ordinary formation.
However.
The two did not retreat.
"Continue to attack!"
"Any formation has its limits. As long as the formation is broken, with the strength of the Shenwu Dynasty, it will definitely not be able to stop the troops of our Xingchen Dynasty!"
Gu Yan gave a stern order. While speaking, he also attacked brazenly, and all his cultivation in the Semi-Saint Realm burst out, trying to break the formation first.
Boom!
Boom! !
The powerful sound and terrifying fluctuations burst out in the Ancient Beast Mountain Range, so mighty that many ferocious beasts fled in panic after sensing such movement. (End of this chapter)
