Only then did Zhou Tong realize that Liang Yan's attack was fake, but his escape was real!
Although the invisible sword just now was powerful, Liang Yan had already prepared to fail the moment he took action. When the opponent used Huang Chen to defend himself, it was the best time for him to escape.
Zhou Tong really fell into the trap!
Liang Yan merged the three sword lights into one place, forcibly breaking through the opponent's rear area, and then escaped with a flash of light.
As soon as he appeared, he heard the sounds of chaotic fighting and fierce fighting.
Looking at it, we can see that the battle in Hulukou has reached a fierce stage. Both sides have suffered injuries, but in general, more monks have been killed on Nanxuan's side.
This was also helpless. Although the soldiers of the Bamboo Army had profound cultivation, Zhou Tong's subordinates were all blessed with the power of thunder. Ordinary magical powers could not break the thunder armor on their bodies, let alone hurt the opponent.
There was also Luo Xin, who was watching eagerly. The white jade pure vase in his hand was specially designed to collect magic weapons, but it was never returned. Tang Qianzhi, Wang Chonghua and other Nanxuan generals did not dare to offer any more magic weapons to prevent others from taking them away.
Under this situation, the Bamboo Army was gradually suppressed by the Huluguan garrison. Thousands of monks have been killed in the battle so far.
Liang Yan had a clear view of everything, made a decisive decision, and shouted loudly in the formation: "All the soldiers of the Bamboo Army listen to the order and withdraw from Hulukou! Wang Chonghua and Tang Qianzhi led their troops to the rear, and everyone else, please withdraw!"
"
When he was in charge of the Bamboo Army, he always followed orders and prohibited them, so no one dared to object once military orders were issued.
"withdraw!"
All the generals began to command their troops to retreat. Although they were retreating, they were not in chaos at all. They still followed the "three talents and nine unique" formation to prevent the Huluguan defenders from taking advantage of the chaos to cover up the enemy.
Wang Chonghua and Tang Qianzhi each led five thousand monks to seize the rear. Both of them had profound cultivation and supernatural powers that were unparalleled by ordinary monks. Therefore, they blocked the waves of attacks by the Huluguan defenders and successfully covered the army's retreat for more than two hundred miles.
Seeing the Zhu army coming out soon, Zhou Tong, Fei Dao, and Luo Xin all became a little anxious.
The three of them looked at each other and without any further hesitation, they each bit the tip of their tongues and poured their essence and blood into the magic weapon in front of them.
I saw three rays of light, divided into three colors: black, white, and yellow, brushing out from the three altars at the same time, merging in mid-air, and turning into a tall warrior.
This strong man is over a thousand feet tall, and his whole body is made of yellow sand. He holds a giant thunder ax in his left hand, and drags a white lotus in his right hand, falling from the sky.
boom!
A chilling air filled the air, instantly filling the entire gourd mouth, making everyone's hearts skip a beat!
Liang Yan's face also changed slightly, because he could vaguely feel that this Huang Shalishi had combined the spiritual energy of three magic weapons, and his strength might be comparable to that of the Ya Sheng!
Even if you are yourself, you can only defeat this yellow sand warrior if you use the "Reincarnation Realm".
But in full public view, Liang Yan would not use this trump card unless absolutely necessary.
While he was hesitating, the yellow sand warrior had already rushed over!
The giant thunder ax in his hand slashed down suddenly, piercing the void immediately. The powerful lightning condensed into a ball the size of an mu and exploded over the bamboo army!
Rumble!
Amidst the loud noise, the power of thunder surged crazily, covering most of the bamboo army.
This strike was so powerful that even if everyone worked together to resist it with formations, and several Tribulation Ancestors shot at the same time, they could not neutralize the power of the thunder.
In just an instant, hundreds of Nanxuan monks were buried in the lightning!
The Huluguan garrison was also chasing after them at this moment, cooperating with the power of the "Three Immortals Formation" in an attempt to block the Bamboo Army and prevent them from escaping from the formation.
Seeing that the situation was critical, Liang Yan could only raise his sword and fight with the huge yellow sand warrior in mid-air.
The two sides fought back and forth for dozens of rounds in mid-air.
Although Liang Yan's sword light was unparalleled, Huang Shalishi was born from the spiritual integration of three magic weapons. His strength was comparable to that of a saint, so he was not afraid of his sword light.
At the moment of anxiety, a patch of starlight suddenly appeared around him, and then quickly rotated to form a huge vortex of starlight, which enveloped the yellow sand warrior.
Liang Yan was stunned for a moment, then turned his eyes and landed on the bamboo army formation.
I saw only one person, sitting in a wheelchair, with his hands and fingers spread out, as if he was pulling some invisible thread, fiddling with it quickly.
At the same time, the starlight vortex in mid-air rotated rapidly, dragging Huang Shalishi into it, and soon disappeared.
"Let's go!"
The man in the wheelchair shouted, then his chest heaved and he coughed violently.
When Liang Yan saw this scene, he did not hesitate. He pinched the sword in his hand, and four sword lights flew out at the same time, drawing four deep ravines in the "Three Immortals Formation".
In the ravine, sword energy flew everywhere, and any Beiming monk who tried to pass through was chopped into ashes.
"let's go!"
Liang Yan also shouted loudly, and the army retreated like a tide, quickly leaving the range of the "Three Immortals Formation", and then exited the gourd mouth, and did not stop until five hundred miles away.
On the top of the Three Immortals Formation, on the top of the three Dharma Platforms, Zhou Tong, Fei Dao, and Luo Xin watched helplessly as the bamboo army withdrew from Hulukou, but they were helpless and looked at each other with worried looks on their faces.
"I didn't expect this Nanxuan army to be so powerful, but in the end I had them run away!" Fei Dao said bitterly.
Luo Xin frowned and whispered: "That person made an agreement with us in advance. This Nanxuan army must be completely wiped out. No one should be let go. Now that the task has not been completed, how should we explain to that person?
"
After hearing this, Zhou Tong's face became even more gloomy, and he thought for a while and said: "That man's cultivation is unfathomable, but for the time being, he doesn't mean any harm. Let me test his attitude and see what happens next."
.”
"Thank you, General Zhou."
But it was said that Liang Yan led the army and withdrew from Hulukou, and did not settle down until five hundred miles away.
After this battle, the Bamboo Army suffered many casualties, so the atmosphere was somewhat gloomy.
In the Chinese army's tent, Liang Yan summoned a group of Ancestors to discuss countermeasures.
Several generals also frowned, their faces solemn, and said nothing.
"Commander Qi, we have killed more than 3,600 people in total this time, including 3,500 Jindan monks and more than 100 Tongxuan Zhenjun. In addition, tens of thousands of people were injured. It can be said that
The most brutal battle in history."
Gui Wuqi reported the battle situation to Liang Yan. After hearing this, the rest of the people frowned even deeper.
"I didn't expect that a small Huluguan would actually hide a dragon and a crouching tiger. If I guessed correctly, there must be an expert helping me behind the scenes!" Wang Chonghua said solemnly.
"There's no need for you to fart!" Demon Lord Tian Xie snorted angrily and said coldly: "Everyone can see the trick behind Huluguan, but if we can't break the Three Immortals Formation, our army won't be able to get through.
It is a serious crime for us and others to delay the fighter plane!"
"Then you have said so much, what good ideas do you have? I don't think you, the leader of the four Nanxuan princes, are mediocre!" Wang Chonghua retorted sarcastically.
"How dare you, how can you slander the Demon Lord!" The four generals of the Ao family all jumped up.
"Shut up!"
Seeing everyone quarreling, Liang Yan shouted angrily, and a murderous aura filled the air, silencing everyone temporarily.
Liang Yan looked around at the crowd and said coldly: "Victory and defeat are commonplace. Our army has not yet reached the point of being exhausted. Instead of engaging in this quarrel, it is better to think about how to break through the 'Three Immortals Formation' and fight for it."
Revenge for the dead Nanxuan soldiers!"
After listening to his words, everyone fell into silence again.
After a long time, Tang Qianzhi stood up and said: "The reason why the Three Immortals Formation is so powerful is because there are three magic weapons holding the formation, especially the white jade purifying bottle.
The combat power is greatly reduced. So the key to breaking the formation is how to destroy the white jade purification bottle."
"What fellow Taoist said is true!" Everyone nodded.
"Then how to destroy it?" Liang Yan continued to ask.
Tang Qianzhi was speechless, silent for a moment, and slowly sat back to his seat.
Seeing that no one said a word, Liang Yan turned his eyes and fell on Wei Wuming, the disabled guest in Tianshui.
"The unknown Taoist friend has great magical powers. The move just now really impressed Liang. The escape this time was all thanks to the efforts of the Taoist friend." Liang Yan said calmly.
After Wei Wuming heard this, his face was calm and he chuckled: "That move is called 'Dou Zhuan Xing Shi', it's just a little trick. It can't kill the formation spirit of the 'Three Immortals Formation', it just banishes it to the void temporarily. After a while,
Will come back”
At this point, he suddenly coughed violently and couldn't help but cover his mouth with his hands, but he still saw blood flowing out from between his fingers.
Next to them, Gui Wuqi, Zhao Yi and others showed concerned looks.
"Fellow Taoist Wuming, are you okay?"
"It doesn't matter."
Wei Wuming shook his head, smiled bitterly and said: "It's an old problem, it's not a problem. Speaking of the 'Three Immortals Formation', when I used the 'Dou Zhuan Xing Shift' just now, I accidentally discovered that the yellow sand force seemed to have some flaws."
"Oh?" Liang Yan raised his eyebrows and immediately asked, "What's the flaw?"
"Logically speaking, this Huang Shalishi is the formation spirit of the 'Three Immortals Formation', and he should be able to control the power of the formation like an arm. But the strange thing is that when he was trapped by my 'Dou Zhuan Xing Shift' just now, he was
I find it a bit strange that I can't skillfully use the power of the formation to save the siege."
Liang Yanjing reminded him, recalled the scene at that time, nodded and said: "Yes, although the Huang Shalishi is terrifying in strength, he only relies on the spirituality of magic weapons and cannot control the power of the 'Three Immortals Formation'.
Otherwise we wouldn't be able to escape from the 'Three Immortals Formation' so easily."
"There is only one explanation."
Wei Wuming said slowly: "With the strength of Zhou Tong, Fei Dao and other three people, they are still unable to control the three magic weapons. They must use some kind of medium to forcefully activate them. This results in the formation spirit being unable to fit in with the formation itself.
With this flaw.”
"What the nameless fellow Taoist said is absolutely true!" Everyone nodded.
"Then, the crux of the question now is, what medium did they use to activate the three magic weapons?"
"It's the altar!"
Liang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and blurted out.
After hearing this, the ancestors of Zhonghuajie were slightly startled for a moment, and then they all showed a look of surprise.
Someone nodded and said: "Yes, I felt from the beginning that the three altars were not randomly built. The runes engraved on them and the materials used were unusual. Now it seems that there is indeed something fishy!"
"If the medium through which they control magic weapons is really the three magic platforms, then if we destroy the magic platforms, won't the 'Three Immortals Formation' be self-defeating?"
"Hmph, that's easy to say! Those three magic platforms are in the center of the formation and are protected by the power of the formation. We can't get close at all. How to destroy them?"
"You can try to use the secret technique of sealing to temporarily seal the altar. As long as you hold on for a moment, our army will be able to capture the three thieves alive!"
"No. The thunder power of the 'Three Immortals Formation' is too strong. Our magical powers and spells were scattered by the divine thunder before we even got close. And the white jade purifying bottle specializes in collecting magic weapons, so it can't be broken at all."
The generals discussed it one after another. Although they found the flaw in the formation, they still couldn't find a way to break it.
At this moment, Mo, who had been silent before, suddenly spoke.
"Gentlemen, I have a suggestion."
As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone looked over.
The reason why Yunya City was able to be conquered before was because of this person's advice. Although the process was somewhat dangerous, the mission was finally completed at the minimum cost.
Therefore, most people present were willing to listen to his proposal.
Liang Yan smiled slightly and said, "If you have any suggestions, it doesn't matter."
Mo Youyou said: "Among the eight major divine tribes in the Black Mountain Region, there is a tribe called the 'Insect Control Tribe', which may be able to help you."
"Insect control?"
Liang Yan raised his brows. He knew that although the eight major protoss were not high in cultivation, they each had their own methods and could use the special environment of the Black Mountain Territory to improve their strength.
Since Mo said so, then there must be something extraordinary about this insect-controlling tribe.
"Please elaborate." Liang Yan said with a smile.
Mo nodded and said slowly: "The Zerg Control Tribe is an alien species among our eight major divine races. They do not need to rely on the environment of the Black Mountain Territory to improve their strength. What they rely on are the various insects passed down from their ancestors. It is said that among them
There is a kind of insect called 'Invisible Insect', which is designed to break the restrictions of formations and can also eat magic weapons. If we can ask Taoist friends who control the insect tribe to come out to help, there may be a glimmer of hope to break the formation."
After listening to his introduction, everyone in the military tent had different expressions. Some people nodded secretly, while others looked hesitant and had doubts in their eyes.
Wang Chonghua said coldly: "I don't think it's appropriate. Every time this kid proposes, it's very dangerous. Last time, he asked our coach to go deep into Yunya City alone. This time, he asked the Zerg Control Tribe for help. As we all know, the eight major gods are at odds with outsiders like us.
No, the scene of being besieged by the Blood River Tribe is still vivid in your mind, right? If we ask the Zerg Control Tribe for help, isn’t this just drinking poison to quench our thirst?"
"Yes, what General Wang said is absolutely true! The Zerg Controllers are located in deep mountains and dense forests. If our army goes deep into it rashly, we may be ambushed and the situation will be even more difficult!"
"Seconded!"
More than half of the people in the military tent supported Wang Chonghua's view, believing that "people who are not of my race must have different hearts" and the eight major divine tribes in the Black Mountain Territory are not worthy of cooperation.
Liang Yan did not express his position immediately, but turned his eyes to Wei Wuming who was sitting in the wheelchair.
