Beiyuan, the source of the North, the northernmost part of the world, is a busy grassland.
"The sky is blue, the fields are vast, and the wind blows and you can see cattle and sheep on the grass!"
Gu Zheng couldn't help but think of this poem about the earth. The grass here is so tall that it can completely cover the cattle and sheep. Without the strong wind bending the grass, you can't see the animals in the grass at all.
This grassland has also become a soil for monsters to survive.
There are no roads on the grassland, and it is difficult for Gu Zheng's RV to drive. However, this does not trouble Gu Zheng. There is no rubber in this world, but there is a kind of soft and elastic rubber powder. The price is very expensive. Gu Zheng bought a lot of it.
Made rubber tires.
The RV was also equipped with a weight-reducing formation so that some soft soil on the grassland could not sink in. Just like that, Gu Zheng's RV was speeding in Beiyuan while Gu Zheng walked out of the RV and stood outside looking at the distance.
The grassland is a different kind of scenery, and the scenery is good. Unfortunately, no one comes to graze in this grassland. There are too many monsters hidden in the grassland. Grazing here is purely to provide food for the monsters.
But even if no one is grazing, there is a lot of game here, and there are many wild animals in the grass.
Two people and a car were galloping on the grassland. It was so arrogant that it was difficult not to be noticed. Within the scope of Guzheng's exploration, more than a dozen groups of monsters had been discovered, but most of them were ordinary monsters. There was not a single one of the heaven-level, high-level warriors.
There are very few who are powerful.
These monsters followed him from a distance and did not take the initiative to attack.
Monsters are much more sensitive to danger than humans. Although there are not many people in this car, it always gives them a sense of danger, which prevents these monsters from acting rashly.
No one harassed him, and Gu Zheng didn't care about these monsters. It wasn't time for the tooth-beating ceremony yet, and by then, there would definitely be some unlucky ones among these monsters.
"The scenery of the grassland is indeed beautiful. Hou Ping, do you think the reason why the Suzaku Empire did not come to occupy the grassland is really just because of the monsters?"
Gu Zheng stood on the carriage and suddenly asked Hou Ping beside him. Hou Ping was stunned and then touched his head.
"Lord, I don't know about this either. It must be true. I've heard before that there are too many monsters in Beiyuan. Humans can only stick to the city and not have the ability to take the initiative to attack the monsters!"
"Otherwise, you underestimate the potential of human beings. If humans want to, there is nothing they can't do!"
Gu Zheng shook his head slightly.
Is it difficult to occupy Beiyuan Grassland? It's really not the case. If there are many monsters, kill them. Organize legions to kill them in batches. Normally, the monsters are very scattered. This time, the monsters took the initiative to attack the city because of the monsters.
A very smart being appeared inside and integrated these monsters together.
But even if the monsters and beasts are together, they are not as disciplined as humans, and they are still very scattered.
As for the quantity, are the number of monsters in the Stardust Sea small? Quite a few, no less than Beiyuan, and even more powerful than Beiyuan. Why can’t the monsters in the Stardust Sea riot? It’s because they were killed by Dawn before.
If you kill too many, you will be afraid of killing them. At the same time, you will also kill fewer high-level monsters.
What the Dawn can do, can the Suzaku Empire not be able to do?
The answer is obviously not. The main reason why the Suzaku Empire did not do it is because they looked down on Beiyuan and believed that Beiyuan had few resources. There was only grass here and could not be planted. If they wanted to graze, there would be harassment from monsters, so they never did it.
I thought about occupying Beiyuan.
But I never imagined how much territory, income, and cattle, sheep, and horses the Suzaku Empire would increase if they really made a big effort to capture Beiyuan.
"What a wonderful piece of land, so wasted!"
Gu Zheng shook his head gently. On earth, there was such an unclaimed land, which would have made his head bloom. Only here can the place exist safely.
In fact, the Suzaku Empire has also overlooked an issue, that is, by killing the monsters as hard as possible, they will not have to worry about Northern Xinjiang for many years, unlike now, when the monsters slaughtered an entire mansion.
It's a pity that Dawn didn't appear here. If it had been here, it would easily have become the Suzaku Empire instead of the Azure Dragon Empire.
Hou Ping said nothing. He didn't quite understand what Gu Zheng said. This was due to the limitations of his vision.
"Those two human boys, stop!"
Finally, they encountered their first monster interception. There were already more than twenty groups of monsters staring at them. The one that ran out this time was a wild boar monster. It was quite big and very powerful. It had a high level.
The power of the warrior.
"Go ahead, I'll stew wild boar for you today!"
Gu Zheng chuckled, this wild boar has a strength close to high-intermediate level, and its strength is higher than that of Hou Ping. However, at this time, Hou Ping has more than just the strength of a warrior. His soul cultivation has gradually become more and more successful, and he has already
He can borrow some of the soul's power.
Now Hou Ping can be regarded as a dual practitioner of Jingwu, but he only cultivates one soul, unlike the Kung Fu in this world, which cultivates so many souls.
"Yes, my lord!"
Hou Ping immediately took off his sword, jumped out, and fought with the wild boar monster. Although the wild boar was big, its body was very flexible, and it was as good as Hou Ping's in fighting.
Hou Ping is still not used to using Yuan Shen, and rarely uses it in fighting. Gu Zheng didn't bother to remind him that fighting requires training. There just happen to be many monsters here, so Hou Ping can practice well.
Seeing that the wild boar monster was entangled with this human being, the few waves of monster beasts that had been following began to have other thoughts. Three waves of monster beasts, eight in total, moved towards Gu Zheng, while the other monster beasts did not move for the time being.
Territory is very important among the monsters. When the wild boar monster fought Hou Ping again, none of the monster beasts came to help, in case the wild boar monster thought it was snatching prey, which would be troublesome.
Of course, those who are much stronger than the wild boar monster don't have to worry about this and just go to the wild boar monster without daring to say anything.
The world of monsters and beasts is originally a world of the weak and the strong.
Hou Ping's strength is not as strong as that of the wild boar, but he has black iron weapons and the movement skills of the ancient Zhengjiao. In addition, he uses the power of his soul from time to time. Gradually, he is able to suppress the monster.
This fight was the first time Hou Ping used the two powers of Jingwu together.
The cooperation of Jingwu is very important. Although Hou Ping is not a spiritual master, he directly practices the immortal arts, but in his heart, he still regards this immortal arts as the power of the spiritual master.
When the three waves of monsters approached Guzheng ten meters away, they all launched a sprint.
Gu Zheng didn't even move, but three waves of monsters suddenly started fighting on their own. They fought very ferociously, and their moves were all deadly. The other monsters around him looked incomprehensible.
No one knows what happened, but one of our own suddenly started fighting?
Only Hou Ping knew that these monsters were all possessed by illusions. Gu Zheng's spiritual master was much more powerful than him. If they entered the illusion created by Gu Zheng, it would be impossible for these monsters to die unless they died.
This is also true. In the illusion, the enemies they mostly target are their own companions. They don't know each other and they fight each other. They all think that the enemy is Gu Zheng.
In fact, it was very easy for Gu Zheng to kill them. There was no need for illusion at all. However, Hou Ping was still fighting. Gu Zheng simply regarded it as a show to see how these monsters fought on their own.
"kill!"
The battle on Hou Ping's side is about to decide the winner. Hou Ping's sword skills are becoming more and more proficient. He is practicing the very common Emei sword technique. Before practicing this sword technique, he had only practiced in this world.
The Overlord Sword.
The name of Overlord Sword sounds very domineering, but in fact it is not practical at all. The exercises and martial arts practiced in this world are combined, but their combination does not bring benefits to martial arts, but has many disadvantages, because it requires
Taking care of cultivation, many martial arts skills cannot be used.
The Emei sword technique used by Hou Ping now is very common in the Emei sect, but in this world, it is the top sword technique. After becoming proficient, the wild boar has gradually become invincible.
At this moment, the wild boar started to run away.
It's a pity that Hou Ping, who became more and more comfortable with fighting, could let such a good leveling opponent go. After becoming familiar with the Emei sword technique, he chopped off the wild boar's head with a strong sword blow.
On the Guzheng side, the eight monster beasts also had a winner. Five were killed and three were injured. One pair of monster beasts died together. Their fight was even more intense. Two monster beasts' bodies were broken. Such monsters
The beasts won't even fight for it, just leave it here and let other monsters and beasts of the same species eat it.
Hou Ping brought his trophies over, Gu Zheng also selected two clean monsters, and the two set off again.
Their fight was witnessed by all the monsters around them. After they left again, not many monsters followed them. There were only seven groups left, three of which were lone monsters.
Beiyuan, somewhere deep in a palace.
Yes, there is a palace deep in the North Source, and it is a human palace, very grand.
"Two people and a strange car entered Beiyuan and came here?"
In the palace, thirteen monsters sat around a big table. Yes, they were in front of the table, not casually hanging out with other monsters.
There was plenty of food on the table, but unfortunately their food was not wine, but human corpses.
Not all of the 680,000 people died. Some of the humans were kept in captivity by them just so that they could eat fresh human flesh all the time.
Thirteen people are the agents of the thirteen kings. The one sitting at the top is the only son of King Tianpeng. He is also the current unified leader of these monsters. He is currently the smartest monster in the land of Beiyuan. This time the monster
The siege was carried out under his planning.
The monsters are different from the human race. The monsters have many flying monsters. The Tianpeng tribe commands all the flying birds and can deliver messages very quickly.
It is not a big news that humans have entered Beiyuan Grassland. Before the war, humans often entered Beiyuan in search of some rare herbs. After the war, the human race sent many scouts into Beiyuan to explore their monsters.
The details of the beast army, these scouts are rare in Beiyuan, many of them can't escape after entering.
In the fight against these scouts, they had also lost monsters, so just two people coming over was nothing. Such news did not need to reach them at all. The key was the car.
That stunning horse-drawn RV.
King Tianpeng's only son is named Tian Weipeng, and his surname is Tian. His father gave it to himself because he thought he was of noble blood.
The reason why Tian Weipeng is known as the smartest monster is because it has read many human books, especially military books.
It knew the importance of intelligence very well, so before leading the monster beasts to attack the human race this time, it made a lot of preparations, including coercing and luring the human race's spies, including investigating the human race's military situation, etc.
That's why it was able to win the battle in the beginning, and even captured the great palace of mankind.
After capturing the palace, its prestige became the highest. Unfortunately, the human race's general general came. Although he cheated him once, after that, the general general stayed step by step and stopped making any moves. It never took advantage of it again, and gradually
, its control over the demon clan has also weakened somewhat.
Weakening does not mean that it is not there. Now Tian Weipeng is in urgent need of a big victory.
As for that carriage, it was a message sent to him by its spies currently hidden in the human race.
This spy is not low-level, but he only knows that the entire Suzaku Empire attaches great importance to the people in this carriage. As for why they attach great importance to it, it is not clear. When the carriage arrived at the capital, the prime minister personally greeted it, and the owner of the carriage only came out to take a look.
He took one look and left.
When they arrived at Dachang Mansion, they were greeted by the Grand Marshal himself, and the owner of the carriage didn't even show his face.
The spy was not high enough to know Gu Zheng's true identity, but the fact that everyone in the Suzaku Empire paid so much attention to a carriage was obviously very different. The spy finally shared his guess.
First of all, the first point is that the owner of the carriage is a peerless strong man, that is, a heaven-level man, but this possibility is not too high. There are countless peerless men in every country, and they will not randomly appear. Even if they do, it is impossible.
So flamboyant.
Second, this is a certain prince of the Qinglong Empire, maybe even a prince. It is possible that the Suzaku Empire has asked for help from the Qinglong Empire, so they sent an important person here, firstly to negotiate, and secondly to understand the actual situation on the battlefield, so that’s why
received the reception of the Prime Minister and the Grand Marshal.
But this is not very likely. It is really a mission, and it is impossible to just recruit such people.
The third point, which is what Tian Weipeng is most worried about, is that the other party is not from the Qinglong Empire at all. The so-called coming from the Qinglong Empire is just a cover to attract them. As long as they are fooled and want to catch these two people, they will
will fall into their trap.
In this case, the other party must have a clear goal, and that goal is himself.
This was Tian Weipeng's idea, not the spies' idea. Based on this idea, it extended several possibilities. The more I thought about it, the more I felt that my guess was correct.
First of all, the strength of these two people must not be low, otherwise they would not be able to serve as bait. They may be from a certain heaven level in the Suzaku Empire. Secondly, there must be other more powerful forces lying in ambush near them, waiting for him to appear.
Does the Suzaku Empire have heaven-level monsters? There is no doubt about this. It has known about it for a long time, but it usually doesn't use them. It's like they also have heaven-level monsters in Beiyuan, but they didn't use them this time.
If the Suzaku Empire uses the Heavenly Order first, it will most likely trigger a Heavenly Order war.
Will the Suzaku Empire do this?
In Tian Weipeng's view, it should be so. After all, its threat is greater than that of the Heavenly Order. A smart monster like it is a thorn in the side of the Suzaku Empire. In order to eliminate it, even if a Heavenly Order war breaks out, it will not hesitate.
The more he thought about it, Tian Weipeng felt that this was more likely. After all, it was the monster that the opponent wanted to kill the most.
At this time, Gu Zheng had already prepared a wild boar feast for Hou Ping. He had no idea what Tian Weipeng was thinking. If he did, he would only smile or say to him: You are too narcissistic.
Guzheng is just here for fun, there is no other purpose.
"Report, there is a person in the car who is a spiritual master, the lowest level, very powerful, he killed eight of our compatriots using only illusions!"
When the latest news reached Tian Weipeng, Tian Weipeng slapped the table. Sure enough, there was a spiritual master in the car and the driver was a high-level warrior. They were bait and traps, specially coming to catch him.
Tian Weipeng is a Tianpeng demon. He has not transformed, but his lower body has the appearance of a human. He has legs to walk, but his upper body looks like a sculpture.
Fortunately, Gu Zheng didn't see him, otherwise he would have compared it with Yang Guo's sculpture to see which one was uglier.
"Hmph, set a trap for me. If I don't fall for it, I will eat your bait!"
"Pass me an order to have the Colored Spider Clan harass the two of them and look for opportunities to kill them. At the same time, let the Coyotito, Sky Eagle, and Black Panther Clan hide nearby for hundreds of miles. If you find a lurking human race appearing, don't make a sound and report it immediately!"
Tian Weipeng gave an order. The Colored Spider Clan's mental power is very strong. They can see through ordinary illusions. The raccoon, Sky Eagle and Black Panther tribes all have strong hiding abilities. They are sent to watch everywhere and look for them.
The lurking human race is very suitable.
When it comes to troop formation, Tian Weipeng still has two skills. Unfortunately, his guess this time is completely different from the facts, and he is destined to have a tragic result.
After eating and drinking enough, Gu Zheng didn't leave. When it got dark, he just stayed here.
His RV is reinforced with formations, and he personally arranged the formations. Not to mention these monsters, even if the heavenly and holy levels come, they can't even think of breaking through.
No one in this world can break his formation.
After a night of silence, Gu Zheng discovered that there were many more demon clans around him, but he still didn't care about them and asked Hou Ping to drive and continue towards the depths of Beiyuan.
This journey lasted for five days. In five days, they had gone deep into Beiyuan. During these five days, Tian Weipeng had been paying attention to them. Tian Weipeng was very confused at this moment.
It has sent many people to explore everywhere, but it has not found the lurking human race at all. It believes that according to such a dragnet-like search, no one can escape from his search. No human race has ever appeared. Is it possible that it really is?
Just those two people?
If this is the case, it proves that his guess is wrong.
But if his guess is wrong, what is the purpose of these two people going to Beiyuan? And if they go so deep into Beiyuan, don't they know the danger of Beiyuan?
With just the two of them, do they really think they can escape under the siege of so many demon clans? Or maybe they can support them from the human clan who are further away?
This is impossible. Tian Weipeng does not believe that they have this ability, but if they do not have such ability, going so deep into Beiyuan is an act of seeking death.
For a high-level warrior and a high-level spiritual master to come to Beiyuan is to die. This is really contrary to common sense.
