Chapter 4042: Divide the Troops
Things turned out just as Lu Xiaotian expected. As Lu Xiaotian escaped and showed his intention to escape, these demonic troops naturally pursued them relentlessly. After all, they came with a large number of troops, and the five The Heavenly Immortal-level Demonic Demons command an army of more than 30,000 Demonic Demons, which can be considered a relatively capable force. In fact, the Demonic Demonic Demon Army has a larger group on the side of the battle with the Jiuyang City Immortal Army, but they are more mobilized. If there are more, the speed will naturally be slower.
And it is relatively more difficult to command. Each of these five immortal-level demons can only lead a team of about 6,000. They are already one of the most capable forces under their command. They can move quickly and command easily.
The army mobilized people to come from afar. It is inevitable that if Lu Xiaotian is allowed to escape easily and fails to show Lu Xiaotian even a little bit of his power, wouldn’t he become the laughing stock of many demons in Luoyang Prison.
This situation is obviously unacceptable to these five leaders.
Just chasing Lu Xiaotian is not that easy. After all, the demon army comes from five relatively independent forces. The strength of each demon army is relatively close, and some are relatively inferior and slower in speed.
In this way, in the process of chasing Lu Xiaotian, the difference will naturally be revealed, and this difference will become bigger and bigger. It stands to reason that the strength and speed of ordinary immortals will decline to a considerable extent under the impact of the army's momentum, but Lu Xiaotian did not seem to be affected much. It still makes the demons feel very troublesome.
"Xiao Cha, Dongfang's speed is too fast. If we continue to pursue like this, we may not be able to catch up with each other for a while." Soon Wu Yan, who ranked second in strength, and the strongest one Shen Mu Ba Mo communicated.
“If we continue to procrastinate like this, the morale of our army will inevitably be affected.”
“Well, what do you think?” The leader, Shen Ming Mo Xiao Cha, asked.
"The only solution right now is to divide our forces and encircle them. Dongfang is too slippery and doesn't divide his forces. According to the current progress, I'm afraid we will never catch up with him." Wu Yan said.
"Forget it, let's temporarily divide the troops into two teams. You lead Wu Chi and Wu Jin together in three teams, and I will lead Xiao Hongwen's team. We will chase and intercept them first, and we will see if we need to divide them into three teams later. Team, pay attention to close contact with each other, If this guy Dongfang took advantage of him, he is really capable of escaping from the pursuit of the Honghao Heavenly Court and the Heavenly Punishment Palace." Xiaocha quickly agreed to the other party's suggestion, even if the other party didn't. Mention, Xiao Cha is also prepared to act in this way.
Seeing that the demon army began to divide its troops, Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Since he could divide his troops once, he would naturally divide his troops a second time. If the other party really wants to get together, Lu Xiaotian will be like a tortoise shell. Even if he has all kinds of means, he can't do anything with this tortoise shell.
In fact, just as Lu Xiaotian expected, after the demon army divided its forces once, it still failed to block Lu Xiaotian. It blocked Lu Xiaotian one after another, and it seemed that every time it was just a little short of blocking Lu Xiaotian. In the end, Lu Xiaotian always gets away.
After Xiaowen discussed with the remaining four immortal-level demons, they divided their forces for the second time not long after. The five teams adopted a two, two, one pattern to intercept Lu Xiaotian. In this way, the space for Lu Xiaotian to move will naturally be greatly reduced with the pressure of the opponent.
However, Lu Xiaotian was not in a hurry, and just led the opponent around until later. While Lu Xiaotian was wandering around here, he also had a certain understanding of the terrain here. Among the three groups with different numbers of people, Under the pursuit of the demon army, Lu Xiaotian slowed down in an area where the evil wind was howling.
Behind him are the most powerful Xiaowen and the nearly 6,000 demon troops he commands. As for the other two teams, they each have twice as many people, but there is still a certain distance between them.
This area where the evil wind breathes gives the Wind-Fixing Bead in Lu Xiaotian’s hand a use. Because the Wind-Fixing Bead is somewhat damaged, its power is not very stable, and it is even unreasonable. In this state, if there is nothing to target, it is very likely that the caster will be accidentally injured by the Wind-fixing Pearl. Previously, Old Man Goat Xu Mo and other immortal-level criminals kept a considerable distance from the Wind-fixing Pearl.
If your cultivation level has not reached a certain level, even an immortal will be sucked into the Wind-fixing Bead. As for escaping, it depends on your luck. Sometimes there are flaws in the trembling patterns on the Wind-fixing Bead. , it doesn’t take much effort to come out. Sometimes the magic pattern works relatively well. Even with Lu Xiaotian's current cultivation level, it takes a lot of effort to escape. In some specific situations, the Fixed Wind Bead is more domineering than the Magic Sound Stone, but it is not stable.
The demonic wind is roaring here right now, and even the demonic army needs to form an army formation to move forward, otherwise it will be affected, so it is a good place for the Wind-fixing Pearl.
Xiaowen, who was chasing after him with his army, also knew very well that Lu Xiaotian might not want to use this roundabout method to make them divide their troops, so as to find opportunities to break the formation. However, the three demon armies are not too far apart. Although Xiaowen and the other five Heavenly Immortal Level Demons knew that Lu Xiaotian was extremely powerful in the Heavenly Immortal Realm, otherwise they would not have been able to cause such heavy casualties to Honghao Heavenly Court one after another. But the information they got was naturally not that comprehensive. They lost a lot of important information on the way to intercept Lu Xiaotian. It can be said that their understanding of Lu Xiaotian was not that comprehensive.
Although Xiaowen and others know that their personal strength alone may not be Lu Xiaotian's opponent, they still have a large army to rely on. Even if they still cannot compete with the opponent, there is no way to hold the opponent back even at a certain cost. problematic. As long as Lu Xiaotian can be held back and several demon armies surround him, the opponent has not advanced to the Golden Fairyland after all, and it will be difficult to escape by then!
It’s just what I think, and there will always be some deviation from reality. And Lu Xiaotian's methods are very different from ordinary immortals, so the deviation is naturally even greater.
When it was discovered that Lu Xiaotian had stopped in this land where the evil wind was howling, Lu Xiaotian had actually hidden his body and approached the demon army led by Xiaowen. When he was hundreds of miles away from this demon army, he was affected by the formation of the opponent's demon army. There were some slight fluctuations in his hidden figure, and Xiaowen quickly noticed it.
However, this distance is no longer a problem for Lu Xiaotian. At the same time that Xiaowen looked at him, Lu Xiaotian started to move. Eighteen puppet war figurines were directly sacrificed.
The moment he saw these eighteen puppet war figurines, Xiaowen's originally calm heart suddenly rose to his throat, but no one had told him that Lu Xiaotian had such methods, and these puppets Together, they already gave him an overwhelming sense of suffocation.
