"Report to General!"
"A spy came to report that the Shenwu Dynasty's army appeared five hundred miles outside Qingyun City and will arrive soon!"
In the yamen of Qingyun City in Yunxian Mansion, a spy reported back respectfully. When the middle-aged general in armor heard this, his expression suddenly became solemn.
"Shenwu Dynasty moves so fast!"
Lu Zhou felt a little heavy in his heart.
He already knew the news of the fall of Taiyang Mansion.
Yunxian Mansion, as a mansion next to Taiyang Mansion, is bound to become the next target of the Shenwu Dynasty.
However, in Lu Zhou's view, although the Shenwu Dynasty had captured Taiyang Mansion, it would at least take some time to stabilize the situation before they could continue to send troops.
But now.
From the fall of Taiyang Mansion to the dispatch of troops by the Shenwu Dynasty, it only took less than two days.
Lu Zhou was naturally shocked by such a swift method.
Obviously.
The methods of the generals of the Shenwu Dynasty were much more powerful than he imagined.
"Looking further, I want to know the number of the Shenwu Dynasty's army and who is leading the army!"
"Yes!"
The spy immediately retreated.
Subsequently.
Lu Zhoucai looked at the other person in the lobby. The other person was dressed in blue and had an elegant face, like a Confucian scholar who had no power to restrain a chicken.
However.
Facing this person, Lu Zhou looked somewhat respectful.
"The Shenwu Dynasty is approaching fiercely, and Taiyang Mansion has fallen. With the current defensive strength of Yunxian Mansion, it is difficult for it to be its opponent.
Next, I'm afraid I'll have to ask Mr. Nan for help. ”
Hear the words.
The Confucian scholar in blue smiled lightly: "You're welcome, Mr. Nan. The Xingchen Emperor and the Guiyuan Dynasty are on the same side. Now that the Shenwu Dynasty is attacking, I cannot sit idly by and watch.
I heard that the Shenwu Dynasty led troops quite well this time, and I just want to see it too! ”
"With Mr. Nan here, I believe that the Shenwu Dynasty will not be a problem!"
Lu Zhou's face relaxed, and then he smiled.
No wonder he has enough confidence in the scholar in blue in front of him. Although he looks elegant and easy-going, he is actually the ninth strongest among the thirty-six generals of the Star Empire.
With this person here, the Shenwu Dynasty will never be able to change the world.
Of course.
If the Supreme Emperor of the Shenwu Dynasty took action personally, that would be a different matter.
However, according to Lu Zhou's understanding, the Supreme Emperor rarely intervened in the world's situation and spent most of his time in self-isolation, so Lu Zhou did not have too many worries.
——
In Yunxian Mansion.
The army was temporarily stationed for rest.
When Shi Zhen listened to the report of his subordinates, his expression became much more solemn.
"Thirty-six kings!"
"Nanmo——"
Information about the other party emerged in Shi Zhen's mind.
The thirty-six generals of the Star Empire are the most core force in the empire. Nan Mo is ranked ninth, and his cultivation has reached the semi-saint realm.
What's more.
Since the other party became an official, he has fought in the north and south for the Star Emperor, rarely losing.
In addition, the Ninth King was so powerful that countless monks fell into his hands.
For such powerful people, Shi Zhen couldn't help but ignore them.
"A half-saint is indeed a big trouble!"
In the camp, the other generals also had serious faces, making the atmosphere in the air a bit dull.
After all, a strong man in the semi-sacred realm can be said to put a lot of pressure on them.
and.
The shadow of a famous tree.
Nan Mo is a general of the Star Emperor Dynasty. Whether it is his ability to lead troops or his own power, he cannot be underestimated.
at this time.
A general said: "If this person is in charge of Qingyun City, we will have to pay a heavy price if we want to take Qingyun City.
But if you bypass Qingyun City, you will easily be attacked from both sides.
This time, I'm afraid it's going to be a little tricky! ”
"That's right... In the opinion of my subordinates, this matter still needs to be discussed in the long term!"
Others also nodded.
A Half-Saint made them feel pressured. The morale that had been boosted by Taiyang Mansion's victory had now dropped a lot.
Shi Zhen looked sternly, looked at the people in the camp, and said in a deep voice: "One half-saint is not enough to deter my army."
"Half-saints are humans too, and they will die too!"
"Now that all my elite warriors are here, not to mention a ninth king general, even if thirty-six kings and generals come in person, a million cavalry will be enough to wipe them out!"
Just then.
A soldier came in from outside and bowed and saluted: "General, Sir Gu, Commander of the Imperial Guards, is asking to see you!"
"Please come quickly!"
Shi Zhen perked up and a smile appeared on his face.
After receiving the order, the soldier bowed and retreated. A moment later, he saw Gu Yi walking in slowly with a black box on his back.
"I've met Mr. Shi!"
"Master Gu, you're welcome!"
Shi Zhen also hurriedly returned the gift and was extremely polite to Gu Yi.
Although he was much higher than Gu Yi in terms of position, Shi Zhen knew very well that Jin Yiwei's existence could not be measured by his position.
The status of this institution is extremely special, and even Shizhen must take it seriously.
Of course.
There is another main reason for this.
That was Gu Yi in front of him, who was also a top expert at the ninth level of the Tao Palace Realm.
Shi Zhen was very clear about how he could break through the ninth level of Dao Palace. Now that Gu Yi was also at the ninth level of Dao Palace, some things were tacitly understood.
To know.
Not even the powerful people from Nanyue Mountain and the Suppressing Evil Division who are in charge of the Sky Patrol Guards can get such an honor.
Gu Yi was able to break through, which is enough to show how much the other party is valued by Gu Yang.
Subsequently.
Shi Zhen asked: "I wonder if Master Gu is here this time, but what are your orders?"
"Your Majesty learned that the Xingchen Emperor wanted to intervene in this matter, and he was worried that Lord Shi was no match for the Star Emperor, so he asked his subordinates to bring the treasure to help you!"
When he finished speaking, Gu Yi had already taken off the black box behind him and handed it directly to Shi Zhen.
The box was cold to the touch, but Shi Zhen could feel the terrifying aura contained in it. The moment he opened the box, he saw a murderous attack rising into the sky, and blood-red light shone out, filling the entire camp.
"This is——"
Shi Zhen looked at the God-killing Spear in front of him, and his pupils shrank suddenly. Although he could not see the origin of the God-killing Spear, the strange phenomenon that appeared in front of him was enough to explain the extraordinary nature of this divine weapon.
The other generals' eyes were now focused on the bronze war spear, with shock on their faces.
"This is the God-killing Spear, which was the great holy weapon of the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land in the past. Later, the Ancient Wasteland Holy Land was destroyed, and this treasure fell into the hands of the Supreme Emperor.
Later, His Majesty specially requested this treasure from the Supreme Emperor, and ordered his subordinates to bring it to you and deliver it to Your Majesty.
I believe that with the help of this precious treasure, the problems of the Star Empire will not be a concern! "Gu Yi said calmly.
His words made Shi Zhen's face full of surprise.
"Okay, Mr. Gu, please go back and tell your Majesty that with the help of this treasure, I will definitely take down the entire Guiyuan Dynasty!"
A mere ninth king is nothing, even if the opponent is a strong man in the semi-sacred realm. Now that he has the God-killing Spear in hand, Shi Zhen doesn't take the opponent seriously.
After all, the powerful Great Saint Soldier is definitely not something that the so-called Half-Saints can compete with.
Not to mention semi-saint.
Even if he is in front of a real saint, Shi Zhen now has the confidence to fight.
Even though Shi Zhen has not yet truly refined the God-killing Spear, when his divine thoughts fall here, he can clearly feel the terrifying power contained in it.
Such a treasure.
It can be described as shocking.
Subsequently.
Gu Yi cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I will definitely bring it to you. This matter is over. I still need to go back to resume my life, so I will take my leave first!"
"Lord Gu, walk slowly!"
Shi Zhen didn't try to keep the other person around, he sent Gu Yi out of the camp politely, and then turned around and came back.
He looked at the God-killing Spear in front of him, and then looked at the others.
"Pass my order to rest the army for three days, and then send out troops to attack Qingyun City in three days!"
"Yes!"
Now all the generals are very excited.
Originally, they had no confidence in fighting against the Star Empire, but now it is different.
The imperial court personally sent people to send the Great Holy Soldier to guard the army. With such a treasure in hand, the so-called Star Empire meant nothing.
Although it is true that the Xingchen Emperor Dynasty has a strong foundation, what the Shenwu Dynasty has to face now is not the entire Xingchen Emperor Dynasty, but just a semi-saint monk from the Xingchen Emperor Dynasty.
so.
They didn't feel much nervous.
As for Shi Zhen's purpose of letting the army rest for three days, they also had some guesses.
The other party just needs time to master the Great Holy Weapon.
After all, not everyone can use such treasures, and they need to be refined before they can truly exert their power.
Although Shi Zhen was not clear about the generals' speculations, in fact he had the same plan.
——
When the army of the Shenwu Dynasty was setting up camp, the news was quickly learned by spies from the Guiyuan Dynasty, and the time was immediately passed to Lu Zhou.
When the latter heard the news, he thought for a moment and concluded that the reason why the Shenwu Dynasty did not attack immediately but chose to set up camp was because they were afraid of the Xingchen Emperor.
After thinking about this, Lu Zhou was determined.
"A new dynasty is always a new dynasty. Even if there are some opportunities, the foundation is limited!"
Lu Zhou smiled slightly, and then ordered someone to tell Nan Mo the news.
When the powerful man from the Star Emperor Dynasty heard about this, his thoughts were the same as Lu Zhou's.
but.
Nan Mo didn't pay much attention.
After all, the purpose of his trip was just to help the Guiyuan Dynasty stabilize the situation. Now that the Shenwu Dynasty's army was encamped and there was no rash action for the time being, Nan Mo was too lazy to cause trouble for himself.
now.
While the Shenwu Dynasty's army was setting up camp, the Guiyuan Dynasty was unable to escape, and the two sides fell into a strange balance.
Time passes.
Three days flew by.
In the commander's tent, Shi Zhen was sitting cross-legged. The iron box that originally contained the God-killing Spear was empty. Looking at his Dantian Taoist Palace, a bronze war spear was already lying there quietly.
The war spear is stained with blood!
The killing is boiling!
When Shi Zhen Shen Nian fell into the bronze war spear and faintly evoked some power of this treasure, the Great Holy Soldier was seen trembling crazily, and the rolling murderous intent swept across all directions like a wave.
Next breath.
Shi Zhenshen thought, and the God-killing Spear fell into his hand. A weak and mysterious connection was generated between them, making him feel as if he could tear the world apart.
but.
Shi Zhen did not actually swing this blow, but instead incorporated the God-killing Spear into his dantian again.
"As expected of a great holy soldier, even with my current cultivation level, I can barely imprint a soul mark in three days. It will take quite a while to truly refine it completely!"
< br>
"But even this is enough. Three days of rest is almost enough. There is no need to delay it any longer."
Shi Zhen had no plans to continue refining the God-killing Spear, so adding a divine soul mark was enough for him to initially activate the power of this great holy weapon.
Notice.
The Great Holy Soldier is terrifying.
Even activating even a fraction of the power is enough to easily suppress any monk below the level of a saint.
In addition, the Shenwu Dynasty is now divided into three armies, and the other two armies are fighting. If the battle in Unxian Mansion drags on for too long, it will undoubtedly increase the pressure on the other two armies.
So no matter which aspect you look at it, three days of rest for the army is already the limit, and continuing to rest will outweigh the gains and losses.
Immediately.
When Shizhen came out of seclusion, he summoned all the generals and directly issued the order to attack.
In an instant.
The trumpet sounded.
After three days of rest, all the sergeants recovered to a great extent, and their morale reached a true peak.
In less than an hour, the army of millions was completely integrated.
"Let's go!"
"We will definitely capture Qingyun City today!"
Shi Zhen was riding on a tall horse, looking straight ahead with deep eyes, where an ancient city was looming.
That——
It’s Qingyun City!
Although they are hundreds of miles apart, this place is flat and smooth. In addition, the Dao Palace monks have amazing eyesight, so it is not difficult to discover the existence of Qingyun City.
As the army set out, all spies from the Guiyuan Dynasty were instantly alerted.
Less than an hour.
This news reached Lu Zhou's hands.
"What!? The Shenwu Dynasty's army has set off!!"
"Yes, millions of troops from the Shenwu Dynasty are heading towards Qingyun City now. I hope you can make a decision soon!"
"Let's talk and report later!"
Lu Zhou waved his hand to make people retreat, his eyes were gloomy, and his face had become extremely ugly.
I originally thought that the Shenwu Dynasty was afraid of the appearance of the Star Emperor Dynasty, so they did not dare to act rashly, but I did not expect that the other party would only cease fighting for three days and then go out again.
Nowadays, millions of troops are approaching fiercely, making Lu Zhou feel great pressure.
Just then.
Nan Mo walked in from outside.
"Lord Lu, I heard that the Shenwu Dynasty is going to attack Qingyun City?"
When entering the lobby, Nan Mo was the first to ask.
Lu Zhou glanced at the other party and put on an ugly smile: "Master Nan is very well-informed. I just got the news, and Master Nan already knows about it."
"Yes, the Shenwu Dynasty's millions of troops are already heading towards Qingyun City this time, and they will be approaching the city soon.
Once this battle breaks out, Qingyun City may not be able to withstand it, and it will have to rely on the talents of Nanda University! ”
The appearance of Nan Mo gradually calmed down Lu Zhou's anxious heart.
In his opinion.
It is true that the Shenwu Dynasty is coming with great force, but we have strong men from the Star Dynasty on our side. If the two sides really want to fight, it is still unclear who will win and who will lose. (End of chapter)
