However, Tianxie Demon Lord and Tang Qianzhi led their troops and left respectively. Outside the Netherworld Valley, only 40,000 elite soldiers led by Liang Yan remained.
In the military camp, Wang Chonghua, Fu Kaishan, Venerable Fuhu and other masters were injured by the "Pure Yang Sky Mirror". The power of Pure Yang invaded their internal organs, burning their meridians and Dantian, and the injuries were serious. It's very serious and I can't fight with others for the time being.
Nowadays, there are only a few experts such as Hong Yun and Zhao Yi who can still be used by Liang Yan. It can be said that this is the weakest period since he commanded the army.
Fortunately, Wu Xin.
The witch's own strength is extraordinary. Coupled with the masters of insect control she brought, Nanxuan's overall strength is still higher than that of Beiming. Even if Wang Tianhe comes out, it won't be them. opponent.
What Liang Yan is most worried about now is not the defenders of Tianmu City, but "time".
Having been blocked by Huluguan and Tianmucheng for so long, Danyangsheng must have made some arrangements. Although Ning Bugui also led the army to exert pressure on the frontal battlefield, after all, with Luoshui blocking it, it would not be possible in a short time. Make meritorious deeds.
Once Danyang Sheng takes over and sends a sub-sage to support him, the situation in the Black Mountain Territory will not be good.
“This is a race against time.”
Liang Yan sighed.
Ever since Demon Lord Tianxie and Tang Qianzhi set out, he had been counting the time. Now Wang Tianhe stood still and could not take the initiative to attack. The situation gradually fell into a stalemate, and there was nothing he could do except wait.
This is contrary to Liang Yan's style of seeking initiative, but there is nothing he can do about it.
Just when he was worried, the tent was suddenly pushed open.
A fragrant breeze blew by, but he walked in unintentionally.
"You are sighing here again, it seems that you have not thought of a good countermeasure?" After the witch finished speaking, she sat down next to him.
Liang Yan looked solemn and sighed again: "Tianmu City has the 'Pure Sun Mirror' and the 'Nirvana Burning Formation', plus Wang Tianhe and other sixteen ancestors of the calamity, it is almost impossible to attack them by force. What can be accomplished now can only be pinned on Tianxie The situation for Demon Lord and Tang Qianzhi is too passive."
"Now that we know this, what is there to worry about? You and I can't see through the changes in the North-South struggle, so we just have to do our best. Just work hard." Wu Xin comforted.
After hearing this, Liang Yan forced a smile, but remained silent.
Wuxin suddenly came over, touched his cheek with his hand, and said with a smile: "Look at you, I can't let go. Aren't you asking for trouble by staying here? Why don't you go out with me to relax?"
"Relax?" Liang Yan was stunned for a moment.
The smile on Wu Xin's face became even brighter. She leaned into his ear and whispered softly: "Don't think I don't know. Before setting off, you also spent some time with your Yue'er. What's the matter? You can't do it with me?"
Liang Yan's face changed slightly, and when he looked at Wu Xin, who seemed to be smiling and angry, he immediately understood that the witch must have made inquiries in the military camp.
"That's because."
"Okay." Wuxin rested his head on Liang Yan's shoulder, "You don't need to explain, I know the reason, she saved you, this is you What I owe her is what I owe her, it’s nothing Easy to explain."
At this point, he suddenly smiled slyly and whispered in Liang Yan's ear: "I'm just curious and want to know how you 'accompanyed' her that day. Can you do it for me? Show the woman again?”
After hearing this, Liang Yan showed a look of helplessness on his face.
"Nan Youyue and I were just wandering around in Fallen Heaven Ridge. Now the war is tense, how can I be in the mood to do such a thing?"
Wuxin didn't feel a trace of anger after hearing this. Instead, he smiled and said: "In that case, let's go take a look around Tianmu City. Anyway, there are only two of us, so we can move forward and retreat freely."
"That's okay."
Liang Yan This time there was no objection.
Anyway, waiting is just waiting. Since Tianxie Demon Lord and Tang Qianzhi are not coming back so soon, it is better to take the initiative to investigate. If we can find other loopholes in Tianmu City, we can turn passivity into initiative.
And he is confident that with his own and unintentional means, he can retreat calmly even if he is discovered by the monks of Tianmu City.
"Then what are you waiting for?"
Wuxin smiled sweetly, took Liang Yan's arm, and with a flash of light on his body, he flew out of the camp in the blink of an eye.
Because of Liang Yan's status as the coach, he was not allowed to pass through all the checkpoints along the way. The two of them connected the escape light and gradually left the Nanxuan territory and approached Tianmu City.
About half an hour later, the two of them pressed the escape light and landed quietly in the gap in the cliff.
Ahead, a towering city stands in the clouds and mist.
This city is green all over, and its walls are made of fairy trees. They are about a thousand feet high and majestic! In particular, there is a scarlet mirror hanging above the city gate. The rays of light flowing in the mirror are the "Pure Sun Mirror"!
As they approached the enemy camp, Liang Yan and Wu Xin both cast spells to hide their auras to the extreme. It was impossible to see through them with Wang Tianhe's methods.
The two of them did not speak, but quietly looked at the city in the distance.
After a long time, Wuxin suddenly said: "Did you see it?"
This question was confusing, but Liang Yan took a deep breath, nodded slowly and said: "Yes. The fight was so hasty that I didn’t look at many things carefully. Only today did I discover that the entire Tianmu City was actually a formation. Eye!"
"Dan Yangsheng acted impeccably. Even if he withdraws his troops, he still leaves enough backup." Wu Xin said in a deep voice: "If I guessed correctly, he should use the Four Cities and Seven Passes as his base. On the one hand, a large formation was deployed throughout the Black Mountain Domain to stimulate the 'Pure Sun Sky Mirror' and provide spiritual power. , on the other hand, it is to cut off the luck and spiritual veins of all the foreign races in the Black Mountain Territory, thereby gradually eroding the cultivation resources of the Black Mountain Territory."
"Yes, he is retreating in order to advance!"
Liang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "The Northern Ming Alliance's previous offensive was too hasty, which resulted in all the attacks in the Black Mountain Territory. All the foreign races had to unite, which made it more difficult for Dan Yangsheng to suppress this place. He realized this and chose to withdraw from the Black Mountain Territory. He would only wait for the eight major divine races to have civil strife and kill each other, and then he would send his followers to deal with it. At the end of the game, the Black Mountain Territory can be suppressed without any effort.”
Wu Xin sighed and said: "This old fox secretly built this formation. He originally wanted it to be miraculous when the eight tribes were pacified later, but unexpectedly it was used on us in advance. Without this formation, there would not be enough energy. Spiritual power, the power of the 'Pure Yang Sky Mirror' can only be exerted by 30% at most, and it cannot threaten our army at all."
"Well, the old fox is cunning. He may have calculated it until today when he built this city. of The situation. I think the fairy wood on the city wall is extraordinary. Even if we work together, it will take a certain amount of time to destroy it, but Wang Tianhe will definitely not give us this chance."
"Then let's go around to the east of the city. Look? I don’t believe that Tianmucheng is perfect, not even a single flaw!”
Wu Xin said, turning her hands, and saw a small furry insect crawling out of her sleeves! back of right hand.
She lightly tapped the caterpillar's head with her fingertips and said with a smile: "Xiaoyan, Xiaoyan, I know you are the most capable, you can definitely find the loopholes in Tianmu City, right?"
The caterpillar chirped a few times, looking very happy.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Liang Yan wouldn't have believed that this holy insect of the Feather Tribe, the Sky-Swallowing Insect, one of the "Four Evils of Heaven and Earth", was so well-behaved and completely devoid of any evil aura!
Of course, this may be related to Wu Xin's bloodline. Only she can completely conquer the Sky-Swallowing Insect.
While thinking about it, the strange insect suddenly turned its head away and made a series of rapid and sharp screams.
“Squeak! Squeak!”
"What's wrong with it?"
Liang Yan was a little confused and looked at Wu Xin, but saw that the latter had a serious expression and winked at him.
In an instant, Liang Yan understood what the witch meant. "Is there anyone?"
"Yeah!"
The two looked at each other. They were quiet one moment, but suddenly became violent the next moment.
The sword energy and magic light simultaneously hit the location sensed by the sky-devouring insect just now.
Without any sound, the cliff opposite was flattened in an instant, and even the space was shattered, as if someone had wiped it away with an invisible hand.
The two of them did not hesitate. With a flash of light, they passed through the scattered smoke and dust, and soon arrived at the target location.
“There is indeed someone!”
Liang Yan discovered traces of spiritual power fluctuations, which did not belong to him or Wu Xin.
"It seems that he is a master who is good at hiding. Could he be one of the sixteen ancestors of the calamity in Tianmu City?" Wu Xin said in a deep voice.
"It's very possible!"
Liang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at it for a moment, and said: "It seems that we still underestimated Wang Tianhe, and he also expected that we would come to spy. Intelligence, so I have been prepared for it."
"What should we do now?" Wu Xin asked.
"Chase!"
Liang Yan said decisively and sneered: "As long as you leave the city, you will be a turtle without a shell! I want to see who this person is. If he is really the sixteenth version of Tianmu City One of the tribulations, if you capture him, I believe you can ask a lot of questions Valuable information."
"Well, leave it to me."
Wuxin pointed his hand and let the sky-devouring insect swallow up all the strange spiritual energy remaining in the surrounding space, and then continued. He pinched a spell and concentrated for a moment.
“Going to the southeast!”
"Okay!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them turned into escaping light at the same time and followed the direction sensed by the sky-devouring insect.
The remaining aura of this person is very weak. If it is there or not, it is difficult to capture it even with Liang Yan and Wu Xin’s spiritual consciousness. Fortunately, the sky-swallowing insect has devoured the other person’s spiritual power and has no idea about his escape direction. Always feeling something.
The two flew toward the southeast at an extremely fast speed, getting further and further away from Tianmu City. After chasing for about a quarter of an hour, a mountain stream appeared in front of them.
But I saw towering black rocks, shaded by green willows, and a majestic waterfall hanging down like the Milky Way. Water splashed three feet high on the boulder, and then dispersed into clouds and mist, lingering in the forest.
Liang Yan and Wu Xin pressed down the escape light at the same time, but said nothing.
In front of them, under a big tree ten feet away, sat a man in a bamboo hat sitting cross-legged.
This man was tall and thin, wearing shabby yellow cloth, with his back to the two of them. He had no breath at all, just like a woodcutter in the secular world, and he was inconspicuous at all.
"Is it him?"
"Yes." Wu Xin nodded.
"This person has no aura at all, and yet he appears here again. I actually feel that I can't see through him." Liang Yan said secretly with a solemn expression.
"Maybe he is a master, but he may also be pretending. The two of us went deep alone, and maybe we have been noticed by Wang Tianhe." Wu Xin analyzed.
Liang Yan nodded, secretly made a secret spell, and blended the invisible sword into the void.
“Be careful of fraud!”
“I understand, let me test it first.”
As Wu Xin spoke, she made a secret magic spell with her right hand. The purple demonic energy emerged behind her, transforming into a magic knife, and firmly locked the Qi machine of the man in the bamboo hat.
Just when she was about to take action, there was a sudden loud noise in the distance.
"Huh?"
Liang Yan and Wu Xin both showed a hint of surprise. They turned around and saw that the earth in the distance suddenly cracked open, and ninety-nine red rays of light shot into the sky. They rose up and quickly joined together in mid-air!
Looking from a distance, it looks like an upside-down alms bowl covering an area of a hundred miles.
"That's..." Wu Xin was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized.
“It’s where we were lurking just now.” Liang Yan said in a deep voice.
"Could it be."
Before the two of them could talk too much, they saw a figure appearing outside Tianmu City. Wang Tianhe, Venerable Poison Dragon, and Mo Wuqingbeiming's sixteen The Patriarch of Huajie appeared at the same time, plus the True Lord Tongxuan and the Golden Core Realm monks in the city, totaling tens of thousands of people.
“Where are the people?”
Wang Tianhe held a red orb in his hand, and his whole body was covered by the power of pure Yang, like a god of war.
Beside him was a skinny old man, with a vertical eye appearing on his forehead, emitting streams of light, and he was carefully searching every corner around him.
"Strange! I saw the enemy coach nearby just now, but why did he disappear in the blink of an eye?"
As the old man said, he pinched a spell in his hand, and his forehead was bleeding from the vertical eyes. Come, only to see the light shining everywhere, and the search area has more than doubled!
"They seem to be going southeast!" the old man said suddenly.
"Chase!"
A fierce look flashed in Wang Tianhe's eyes, and he said coldly: "The enemy coach is alone, this is a God-given opportunity! I have the 'Qianyang Pearl' given by Commander Dan, and then With the combined efforts of all fellow Taoists, I hope he won’t be able to escape!”
After hearing this, Mo Wuqing, Venerable Poison Dragon and others did not hesitate, and each led their elite troops to follow Wang Tianhe to Liang Yan’s location! The location was pursued.
A streak of escaping light streaked across the sky like a shooting star. Although the Golden Core monks could not escape in the Black Mountain Domain, they also rode in Beiming's special cloud chariot. The army stretched for several miles and looked mighty. Swing, unstoppable!
At this moment, Liang Yan was standing under the green old locust tree.
He looked up and looked at the streaks of light passing above his head, with a strange expression on his face.
"They don't seem to have noticed us?" Wu Xin asked softly.
"Yes."
Liang Yan nodded, gradually retracted his gaze, and looked at the man in a bamboo hat sitting under the tree.
This person’s cultivation is unfathomable!
He just sat here, but he didn't see any spells or any restrictions around him. The Beiming monks above his head didn't seem to notice this place and automatically ignored them.
"I am Wushuang. Cheng Liang Yan, I have met the senior!" Liang Yan said respectfully.
