The royal city of Yunwu County has a total of three city walls, namely the main city wall, the inner city wall, and the palace wall.
In terms of defensive power, the main city wall is naturally the strongest. After hundreds of years of reinforcement, not only is the wall tall and the masonry thick, but the formation masters of the Inscription Guild were also invited to arrange more than a hundred protective formations and city protections.
Big array.
In addition to the main city wall, as the palace wall that protects the palace, although the wall is not very tall, it has more protective formations and attack formations than the main city wall.
In particular, the palace-protecting formation "Dragon Turtle Holy Armor Formation" is a fourth-level formation, with seven points of defense power and three points of attack power.
Once the formation is activated and covers the entire palace, it will be difficult for even a fish-dragon realm warrior to break through it.
On the top of the palace wall, among the six formation towers, sat a black market formation master. With their combined efforts, they finally activated the inscriptions of the palace protection formation.
"Wow!"
Each of the six formation towers shot out a white beam of light, rising hundreds of feet high, passing through the clouds and scattering all the clouds in the sky.
Then, arrays of formation patterns emerged on the four palace walls and eight palace doors, turning into a spider web-like mask of light, wrapping the royal city in the mask of light.
Looking down from the sky above the palace, I saw the large formation, which looked like a giant turtle lying on the ground. Around the neck of the giant turtle, it seemed like a big blue dragon was wrapped around it, with the dragon's head coiled around the giant turtle.
Protected by the palace formation, no matter how powerful Zhang Ruochen is, he can only retreat obediently.
If he dared to attack the palace protection formation, it would be best. Zhang Tiangui would take advantage of this opportunity and use the formation to kill him.
"Zhang Ruochen, I guess what can you do to get me now?" Zhang Tiangui smiled coldly, revealing two rows of snow-white teeth.
The palace's protective formation has always been firmly in the hands of the prince. If Zhang Tiangui hadn't brought the masters from the four counties into the palace and got rid of the palace's formation masters in advance, how could the palace have been destroyed so quickly?
Fall?
The defensive capability of a county, even if it is just the royal city of a lower-level county, is quite strong.
Prince Sifang fled outside the north gate of the palace, stared at Zhang Tiangui standing above the palace gate, and shouted from a distance: "Zhang Tiangui, open the formation quickly and let me in."
Zhang Tiangui's eyes were cold, with a look of disdain, and he said: "Elder Huo was once the third-ranked master in Sifang County. How come he can't even deal with Zhang Ruochen? If the young master knows, I'm afraid he will be very disappointed in you.
"
The name of the Sifang County Prince is Huo Tianshu. He holds a high position in the black market of Tianmo Ridge and is named an elder.
Hearing Zhang Tiangui's words, Prince Sifang's heart sank.
Prince Sifang has always disliked Zhang Tiangui because he felt that his cultivation level was far superior to Zhang Tiangui's, so why should he obey orders of a junior like him?
It is precisely because of this that the two of them are in harmony on the surface, but privately, they have already accumulated conflicts.
Prince Sifang did not expect that at such a critical moment, Zhang Tiangui would take revenge on him and leave him outside the palace protection formation.
Zhang Ruochen had also chased to the bottom of the palace gate and came behind Prince Sifang. Blood dripped from his sword and said, "Prince Sifang, where are you going to escape?"
Prince Sifang turned around and glanced at Zhang Ruochen. He was obviously just a young warrior under twenty years old, but at this moment, he felt like a god of death approaching him.
"Zhang Tiangui, you are deliberately hurting me!"
Prince Sifang gritted his teeth, glared coldly at Zhang Tiangui on the city gate, and said, "If the young master knows about this, I will never spare you."
Zhang Tiangui smiled sarcastically and thought to himself, what kind of person is Di Yi? You, Prince of Sifang County, may still be the number one person in Tianmo Ridge, but after leaving Tianmo Ridge, who do you think you are?
Zhang Tiangui firmly believed that even if Emperor Yi knew about this, he would never do anything to him. Because his value is much greater than that of the Sifang County Prince.
Zhang Tiangui said loudly: "Elder Huo, you are a famous martial arts master. How can a mere Zhang Ruochen be your opponent? You still have to show off your power and kill Zhang Ruochen. When the time comes, I will definitely come in front of the young master to take credit for you.
.”
Prince Sifang was so angry that his head was smoking. He was too lazy to pay attention to Zhang Tiangui and turned to stare at Zhang Ruochen.
Although Zhang Tiangui was an out-and-out sinister villain, what he just said made some sense. Prince Sifang thought that as long as he could kill Zhang Ruochen, it would be a great achievement.
He is a martial arts practitioner at the highest level of Tianji Realm. Zhang Ruochen has just entered Tianji Realm. If he is willing to fight hard, he may not have a chance to kill Zhang Ruochen.
As the belief in his heart gradually strengthened, the aura emanating from Prince Sifang became stronger and stronger. The bronze halberd on his back trembled violently, shattering the cloth and flying directly into his hand.
"Overlord Halberd!"
Prince Sifang held the halberd in both hands, spread his legs, and suddenly waved the halberd, stirring the aura of heaven and earth, as if the human halberd merged into one, forming a starting move.
"Bang!"
The tail of the Overlord's Halberd hit the ground, making a "pop" sound and cracking the ground.
That halberd was a ninth-level true weapon. It had been with the Sifang County Prince for decades and had killed many famous masters.
The Sifang County Prince's true energy was very deep, and he activated the "fire" inscriptions in the Overlord's Halberd. The halberd was immediately wrapped in flames, condensing into the phantom of a flame war king wearing armor.
"Flying birds flying in the clouds."
The martial skill displayed by the Sifang County Prince is called Fengyun Halberd Technique, which is a high-grade spiritual level martial skill.
This set of halberd techniques has a total of thirty-six moves. Once practiced to a great level, it can cut through mountains and rivers and penetrate the clouds. It is a secret martial art at the level of a town in the Sifang County.
However, Sifang County only recorded twenty-two moves in the Fengyun Halberd Technique. That martial arts secret book can only be regarded as a fragment, and it is difficult to truly practice the Halberd Technique to perfection.
Of course, even if it is just an incomplete set of halberd techniques, it is still incredibly powerful when used by a master of Sifang Commandery King's level.
The halberd was struck out and turned into a cloud of fire, pressing down from above.
A wave of heat hit my face.
Zhang Ruochen rushed forward without dodging.
Qingxu True Qi surged out of his body, forming a layer of body-protecting Tiangang. It passed through the fire cloud and slashed at the wrist of the Sifang Commandery Prince with a sword.
The Prince of Sifang did not expect that Zhang Ruochen's swordsmanship was so advanced. With just one ordinary sword strike, his high-grade spiritual-level halberd skill was broken.
This kind of swordsmanship can be said to turn decay into magic.
Prince Sifang immediately changed his moves, turned his arm, and thrust out the halberd again. Wisps of flames seemed to condense into a point and pierced Zhang Ruochen's chest.
Zhang Ruochen moved his steps and appeared on the left side of Prince Sifang, and struck Prince Sifang on the head with his palm.
The Prince of Sifang County felt the wind coming from his palm and blocked it with a horizontal movement of his halberd.
"Bang!"
Zhang Ruochen knocked the Sifang Commandery Prince back seven steps with one palm, and then faced him again, forming a finger sword with the thumb of his right hand and moving forward a little.
A blue cold sword wave flew out from the fingertips.
"Bang!"
The sword wave accurately hit Sifang Commandery Prince's body, but was blocked by Sifang Commandery Prince's body-protecting Tiangang.
Prince Sifang was not injured, but took a step back again.
Without giving Prince Sifang a chance to breathe, Zhang Ruochen's second sword wave struck out, finally breaking through Prince Sifang's protective Tiangang and hitting Prince Sifang's body.
Prince Sifang made a muffled sound, and the robe on his chest was torn to pieces by the sword energy. His body was severely injured, and his chest was a mess of blood and flesh, revealing the white bones of his ribs.
"Bang!"
Prince Sifang fell to the ground, but still refused to admit defeat. He knocked out the Overlord Halberd in his hand and flew towards Zhang Ruochen like a crossbow arrow.
At the same time, he immediately released his martial soul and began to mobilize the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, condensing a huge flame vortex above his head.
"Bang!"
Zhang Ruochen swung his sword and made the Overlord Halberd fly away.
He fired a sword wave again, turning into a sword-qi light beam as thick as a bowl, hitting the Sifang County Prince who was gathering strength.
The martial spirit of the Sifang Commandery King pushed forward with both hands, knocking out a huge whirlpool of flames.
In just an instant, Zhang Ruochen's sword wave was swallowed up by the whirlpool of flames.
As the flame vortex continued to rotate, it became larger and larger, reaching a diameter of more than 20 meters, flying up the stone slabs on the ground and melting them into magma.
The magma turned into a crimson river, and the whirlpool was flowing, making a "cracking" sound.
"Haha! Zhang Ruochen, now you know the difference between Tianji realm warriors who have cultivated martial souls and Tianji realm warriors who have not cultivated martial arts, right? I can mobilize the power of heaven and earth aura through martial arts. I am the martial arts myth. You
He's just a young boy. If you fight with me, you will die miserably."
The prince of Sifang County laughed loudly, thinking that he had already grasped the victory.
The power of the martial spirit cannot be resisted by those warriors who have not cultivated the martial spirit.
"You can use the power of martial arts, can't I?"
Zhang Ruochen also released his martial spirit, and a soul shadow floated above his head, and began to mobilize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Zhang Ruochen's martial spirit even plundered the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that had been controlled by the martial spirit of the Sifang County Prince.
The Sifang County Prince's expression changed drastically, and he was panicking, "How could this happen? No, you have just broken through the Tianji Realm, how can you also cultivate a martial spirit?"
The Prince of Sifang County practiced in the Tianji Realm for thirty years before he cultivated his martial soul. How long had it been since Zhang Ruochen reached the Tianji Realm? How could he have already cultivated his martial soul?
Moreover, Zhang Ruochen's martial spirit seemed to be more powerful than his.
Seeing Zhang Ruochen release his martial spirit, Zhang Tiangui, who was standing above the palace gate, was so jealous that he went mad, "Zhang Ruochen has already cultivated his martial spirit. How... is this possible? Is the gap between me and him so big?"
Zhang Tiangui has always been praised as the number one genius by people around him, so he has always been arrogant and does not take anyone seriously. Even warriors with higher cultivation levels than him seem to be inferior to him.
Until this moment, the confidence and pride in his heart were completely defeated by Zhang Ruochen.
With his talent, he was like a firefly compared to a star in front of Zhang Ruochen, and he was not even qualified to carry Zhang Ruochen's shoes.
