Thunder and fire from heaven and earth emerged one after another and began to burn the soldiers on the ground bit by bit.
It's also at this moment.
"Drink!"
With Li Ji's roar, he exhausted all his strength and finally rushed out from under the pagoda.
In a daze, he looked at the Iron Pagoda with a hint of heart palpitations.
If he was still half as powerful as the God's Tower, he could conquer the Tower of Pagoda by himself.
But he was seriously injured, even if he burned his life force, he could only restore his strength to the middle level of Shenmen.
Want to use the strength of the middle realm of Shenmen to resist the pagoda iron tower of the half-step Shentai realm? That is really a fool's dream.
The golden dragon protecting the country of the Tang Dynasty sucked away the power of national destiny in this world, and the consequences are obvious.
Without the repulsion and suppression of the Tang Dynasty, the military souls of the Apocalypse Empire's army felt much better than before.
When all the major military souls are resisting the restrictions between heaven and earth, the restrictions between heaven and earth are no longer so strong!
"General Li Ji!"
But at this moment, a polite voice came from behind Li Ji.
When Li Ji turned around, he saw that Cheng Mu had been waiting here for a long time.
Chen Yang was defeated, so he, the general, had to take action personally.
The battle between the Pagoda Tower and the Xuanwu Army Soul, then let them go.
At this time, Cheng Mu only had Li Ji in mind.
"Haha, do you value me so much?"
Seeing Cheng Mu coming to pay his funeral in person, a sad smile suddenly appeared on Li Ji's face.
What is an emperor? He is always a high and noble existence.
Killing the enemy? That would completely dirty the emperor's hands.
But under such a situation, the emperor of the Apocalypse Empire actually appeared in front of him in person. It seemed that he wanted to see him off for the last time.
Moved?
Li Ji was a little moved. After all, he died in Cheng Mu's hands, so he could be regarded as a loyal martyr.
Even if someone talks freely in the future, they will praise him that Li Ji's death was extremely valuable.
I would like to ask, who in the world can be worthy of an emperor to bury him in person?
"Of course I value it."
Cheng Mu did not hide his murderous intention and love at all. These two emotions were originally extremely contradictory, but at this moment, Cheng Mu's face perfectly reflected the two.
Li Ji is a famous general after all, and I like him because he can bring benefits to the Apocalypse Empire.
Even if this is the icing on the cake, it is enough to enhance the strength of the Apocalypse Empire.
Why not?
But Cheng Mu doesn't like forcing others.
It was actually an honor for Li Ji to be favored by him. Let Cheng Mu ask for invitations again and again? No, no, no, Cheng Mu is no longer the village chief.
As the lord of an empire, not accepting the emperor's kindness is a capital crime!
Naturally, Cheng Mu's face showed two expressions of love and murderous intent.
If Li Ji reined in his horse and surrendered on his knees, then Cheng Mu could spare his life.
However, Li Ji's attitude at this time was extremely determined.
When he glanced at Li Jing who was still fighting, he made up his mind: "Brother Yao is still fighting, how can I give up?"
"Tyrant, die!"
While roaring, he actually rushed towards Cheng Mu.
When the life force in his body was completely burned, he seemed to have returned to the realm of the half-step divine platform, and even possessed the power of the divine platform.
"Dang!"
The sword struck down, and the sword energy vibrated.
Faced with such a sharp sword, Cheng Mu took the initiative to attack with the Han Chi Spear in his hand.
After absorbing so much of the power of the Tang Dynasty, the Han Chi Spear completely stimulated the spiritual intelligence.
In the face of powerful enemies, it can actively defend itself against enemies and protect its master!
"snort!"
The attack was frustrated, but Li Ji did not give up.
Immediately, his whole body turned into afterimages. The long sword in his hand was like a rainbow, and he was determined to kill Cheng Mu here.
Finally, Cheng Mu moved.
Seeing Li Ji's attack getting more and more fierce, he gently raised his hand and grabbed the Han Chi Spear surrounding his body.
It was also at this moment that his whole aura changed dramatically.
Boundless power flowed in his body, which was the majestic power from the Han Chi Spear.
"Hit the road!"
He stabbed it out.
Li Ji only felt a spear appearing in his eyes.
As his breathing became faster, the spears in his pupils became larger and brighter.
In just a blink of an eye, Han Chi's spear pierced his heart.
What is the great power of the Shentai realm?
All this was just Li Ji's fantasy before his death.
He was seriously injured by Guan Hai in Yuwucheng. He forced an arrow to kill Huang Zhong even though he was still seriously injured. He just used brute force to break through the suppression of the Pagoda Tower...
Although the dragon's breath of the Protector Golden Dragon gave Li Ji a chance to breathe, he was still burning his own life force from beginning to end.
When the power of life is burned out, the past scenes will appear in his mind.
This is a flashback.
Li Ji mistakenly thought that his return to the light was his return to the half-step altar!
"Forehead....."
The heartbreaking pain brought Li Ji back to reality from his fantasy.
He lowered his head and glanced at his chest. When he saw blood flowing out from the junction between his heart and the gun body, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"Finally...it's over!"
Although he wanted to protect the country until the end, he did his best in the end.
Dying here can be regarded as the last bit of blood he shed for the Tang Empire.
He was loyal to the Tang Dynasty, and he was loyal to Li Shimin. He, Li Ji, deserved his death!
"Mao Gong!"
Seeing Li Ji's body falling, a roar came from Li Jing in the distance.
At this time, his eyes were full of blood and tears, and his whole body was shaking.
They are not afraid of death, but when death really comes, who can be truly calm?
"Brother Maogong, I will come to accompany you later!"
Of course, the tremor in Li Jing's heart was not fear, but anger.
Boundless rage!
"Today, I want you to die!"
He risked his life and roared like crazy.
Facing the attacks of Zhao Yun and Zhang Wanlong, although he did not gain an absolute advantage, he was not retreating steadily.
Bang!
With one blow, Zhao Yun and Zhang Wanlong were instantly knocked away.
Li Jing, who was in a furious state, had truly recovered to half a level of strength.
The muscles all over his body bulged, and the dark meridians were engraved on his body like a horned dragon.
That majestic power made the incandescent sky dim again.
"Go to hell!"
After knocking Zhao Yun and Zhang Wanlong away with one blow, Li Jing turned around and rushed towards Cheng Mu.
Even if he were to die today, he would drag Cheng Mu along with him to be buried with him.
"You dare!"
But at this moment, Guan Hai flew from the sky.
"Dang!"
The long sword collided with the bloody knife, and the huge impact caused a strong wind.
As the strong wind roared, the entire battlefield was turned upside down!
"Military soul! Military soul!"
Seeing the battle between the strongest ones increasingly affecting the battlefield, the commanders of the armies on the battlefield all inspired their military souls.
In an instant, military spirits with different expressions appeared.
As the momentum of the various military souls collided with each other, they actually began to reduce the aftermath of the battle of the strongest men remaining in the world.
"roar!"
Boom! Boom!
In the next battlefield, the strongest fought, soldiers fought fiercely, and military souls fought in a melee.
At this time, there was nothing intact in this world.
The originally indestructible Anbei City was now reduced to ruins under the aftermath of the battles of many powerful men.
The land that was repaired by the Golden Dragon of the Tang Dynasty in the beginning became fragmented again.
When deserters begin to appear on the battlefield, the war has come to an end!
"Bang!"
Not long after, Li Jing's body fell violently from mid-air.
The huge force smashed a human-shaped depression into the ground.
"Cough cough... cough cough..."
In the depression, Li Jing vomited blood.
The bright red blood dyed his armor red, and the intermittent breath made it difficult for him to move.
Cheng Mu turned around and didn't look at his miserable appearance again.
Is it worth it for a famous general of a generation to die miserably here?
"I'm afraid Li Shimin doesn't know what you looked like before you died!"
Cheng Mu's faint voice came, and this became the last straw for Li Jing.
"You! Impossible!"
Facing Cheng Mu's questioning, Li Jing opened his eyes and glared.
He wanted to speak out to refute, but when he thought about it, he realized that he couldn't refute this sentence.
Yes, I died here. Apart from the stars in the sky, who could see the tragic situation before my death?
I'm afraid even if a history book were to be written, it would probably be mentioned in one sentence: Li Jing died in Anbeicheng.
For a moment, Li Jing felt deeply unwilling.
He is not afraid of death, but he is afraid that his death will be unknown and worthless. He is afraid that after he dies in battle, his body will not be able to be hidden in his homeland.
Under the influence of anger.
Phew~
He spurted out another mouthful of blood.
When Guan Hai came forward to check, Li Jing on the ground had already lost his breath.
But those wide eyes revealed how unwilling he was before he died!
A famous general of a generation died in this barbaric land after all!
"A grand burial!"
Cheng Mu already knew this outcome.
Although he personally sent the two famous generals on their way, he was not as happy as he imagined at this time.
So when he saw the enemy troops around him who were still resisting, he issued a killing order.
"Anyone who resists or escapes will be killed without mercy!"
Some reputations are forged from corpses. Cheng Mu's reputation must also be forged on the battlefield!
...
Tang Dynasty, Chang'an City.
Boundless black thunderclouds once again enveloped the entire city of Chang'an.
Facing the huge power exuded by the black cloud, the people of the entire Chang'an City were panicked.
When waves of black rain fell, people were already wailing and crying.
They were not originally sad, it was the sadness carried by the black rain that made them cry.
"Ahem! Ahem! Ahem! Ahem!"
In the Daming Palace, Li Shimin vomited blood.
Although he has condensed himself with the fate of the country, as an emperor, he still has to bear the backlash caused by the damage to the fate of the country.
When he learned that Xue Rengui had led the remaining troops to withdraw into the pass, he knew that the Anbei Protectorate could not be saved.
Although Li Jing and Li Ji are famous generals in the world.
But in the face of the Apocalypse Empire's overwhelming force, how could Li Ji and Li Jing be able to withstand it?
The wave after wave of backlash he suffered from the fate of the country must have happened to Li Jing and the others!
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Dark clouds are pressing down on the sky, and black rain is destroying the country!"
When the pitiful wails echoed throughout the Daming Palace, Li Shimin vomited blood even more violently.
He struggled to grab Li Chengqian's hand and roared: "You ascend the throne and become the king! Immediately ascend the throne and become the king!"
He couldn't wait any longer, he really couldn't hold on any longer.
Rather than have Cheng Mu reduce his strength bit by bit here and be played to death.
Then why not fight to the death?
While I still have a little bit of strength, while the foundation of the Tang Dynasty is still there.
If Anbeicheng is lost, it is lost.
As long as Cheng Mu is killed, everything will be fine!
