Chapter 287: Defeat the ancient warriors and return in triumph
As a master of artistic conception, Gu Shi has reached the state where people are born with Qi and the body can move at will. Even though time was short and even though Mao Qi chose the moment when he was beyond his power, he still managed to condense the spiritual energy shield.
But with the support of Mao Qi's dantian realm energy, the huge yak behind him seemed to be alive. He roared from the ground and made an attack. Then, following the movement of Mao Qi's short sword, he rushed towards the ancient scholar.
Due to the close distance, the attack arrived in the blink of an eye. The powerful impact made Gu Shi's hands and feet numb and his internal organs boiling.
As for Mao Qi, as the attacking party, even though he had the upper hand, his mouth was still cracked by the backlash and his body was unstable.
But Mao Qi did not give up the attack, because he knew that there was only one chance like this, and it was too late to focus on the Demon Bull Slash to attack again, so he simply gave up using martial arts. Under the guidance of spiritual consciousness, he relied on the Huaxia clan's experience in martial arts.
Perception, coupled with the impact of the bull and abundant realm energy, continued to attack Gu Shi.
Although there is no guidance of martial arts, Mao Qi's attack power is continuous. Under its powerful attack, the surrounding spiritual energy storm surges, and both the elites of the ancient palace and the soldiers of the ancient mountain are further away.
While Gu Xiao was fighting, he was concerned about Mao Qi's battle. Seeing that Mao Qi had such a powerful attack power, he was amazed in his heart. At the same time, he also had a feeling that he could no longer withstand Mao Qi's current attack.
"The next life is to be feared."
Gu Shi was driven into a rage by Mao Qi's irregular attacks. He couldn't take advantage of his realm and didn't even have a chance to breathe. If it weren't for his body's strong defense, he would have been defeated long ago.
Array is coming.
"Let's see how long you can hold on." With advantages in realm and technique, Gu Shi didn't believe that an ant at the second level of the Tao realm could survive him.
But Gu Shi did underestimate the energy reserve of Mao Qi's realm. At this time, Mao Qi had dual channels of Niu Mo Xin Jue and Qi training state to replenish the realm energy, as well as the energy reserve of Dantian. The more he fought, the braver he became, and after adapting to the battle,
, Mao Qi's strong muscles and tough meridians make his attacks more coherent and tricky.
Although Mao Qi's attacks were not guided by martial arts, each attack was carried out without stingy realm energy. At this time, the spiritual energy storm surrounding the two people swept through the battle area between the two. Countless trees were uprooted, boulders shifted, and mountains
The hill disappears.
Gu Shi was also injured under Mao Qi's attack.
"This kid is still not a human after all." Seeing that the other party's realm energy seemed to be inexhaustible, and his body could support such an intense attack, Gu Shi's anger slowly turned into panic. Now he has not adjusted at all.
There was no chance, and as long as it took only half a beat, he would be injured again. What was most unacceptable to him was that the opponent actually swallowed the pill in front of him.
As for the 30,000 elite troops brought by Gu Shi, although they had a numerical advantage, due to the lack of unified command, it was difficult to form an effective attack and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.
After the early run-in, and with Gu Xiao as support, the Gushan Death Squadron became more courageous as they fought. Even though they were outnumbered, they still took the initiative on the battlefield.
Although the aggrieved Gu Shi has abundant realm energy, he cannot exert his due fighting power. If this kind of useless fighting continues, he may not even be able to save his life. This is the first time since Gu Shi became a master of artistic conception.
Feel threatened by death.
After another moment of stalemate, there was still no chance to counterattack, so Gu Shi had no choice but to save his life. But the price of saving his life was not small. In order to completely withdraw from Mao Qi's attack range, Gu Shi withstood Mao Qi's two attacks and exchanged his injuries for it.
When the opportunity came to use energy, he condensed his strongest defensive martial skill, the rock shield.
Rock Shield, a strange-level intermediate martial skill, can rebound 70% of attacks when it is first condensed. It is somewhat similar to Ma Zhao's Immortal Shield, but the rebound of the rock shield can only be achieved at the moment it is first condensed.
Seeing that the opponent gave up his defense at the risk of being injured, he instantly guessed the opponent's intention, because this was also his common method in battle, so after the attack was successful, he took the initiative to withdraw from the opponent's attack range, and then used it directly
The second layer of thunder clouds in the Heavenly Thunder Palm.
Mao Qi's shrewdness surprised Gu Shi. He originally planned to take advantage of the rebound of the rock shield to counterattack, but unexpectedly the opponent immediately evacuated. Gu Shi wanted to continue the attack, but found that his meridians were injured. If he continued to fight,
Even if he can kill the opponent, he will end up seriously injured. He will be injured on the battlefield. The variables are so big that Gu Shi has to worry. At the same time, seeing Mao Qi can still use the Thunder Palm shows that the realm energy can still support it, let alone dare not
Going to risk a fight. Gu Shi was shocked. He couldn't figure out why the opponent was still so full of energy after persisting for so long, and he wanted to quit.
"Ignorant boy, I will take your life next time." Having made up his mind, Gu Shi did not hesitate, said a harsh word, and actually turned around and ran away. His life was much more valuable than Mao Qi.
Seeing Gu Shi running away, Mao Qi smiled slightly, as if he had expected it and did not pursue him, because it was not the time to fight desperately yet, and this kind of deterrent effect was needed.
As for the 30,000 elite soldiers of the ancient palace who had not yet had time to escape, Mao Qi was not prepared to let go. With Mao Qi joining in, the Gushan Death Squadron launched a counterattack, and finally broke through the defense line of the elite soldiers of the ancient palace under an all-out attack.
The elite soldiers of the ancient palace panicked and were completely defeated.
On the frontal battlefield at this time, after the ancient palace team occupied the first defensive position, they immediately launched an attack on the second defensive position. However, to their surprise, they were attacked even more fiercely. In the strong arrow tower
Under the attack of the crossbow, even the powerful ones began to suffer casualties.
After two consecutive attacks, Gu Xun also gave up the plan of a quick victory and prepared to adjust his formation and launch the attack again. At this time, Gu Shi fled back to the ancient palace command post in embarrassment.
Seeing that Gu Shi was seriously injured, Gu Xun was shocked and speechless, and he also had a rough guess about the situation at the rear.
As for Gu Shi, he didn't bother to explain. He closed his eyes slightly and waited for Gu Xun to speak. However, the powerful figures present did not know Gu Shi's realm strength and ran away when they saw that he was injured. Moreover, their expressions were so arrogant that they all looked down upon him with contempt.
eyes.
"Elder Gu Shi, go heal your wounds first." After a moment of silence, Gu Xun took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and said with a solemn expression.
Initially, these powerful figures were unconvinced, but after hearing the name of the ancient saying, they quickly shut their mouths, because in the ancient palace tribe, the position of elder is not something that can be taken casually, and at the same time, they began to speculate about the rear.
battle situation.
Faintly, the shadow of failure shrouded Gu Xun's heart. The frontal battlefield encountered stubborn resistance from Gushan's team. To conquer the second line of defense, it would require heavy casualties, and it would take at least a day or two; while the small group at the rear
The Gushan team has become a serious problem because it has seriously threatened the safety of important equipment, food and other baggage.
Just when Gu Xun was in a dilemma, news came that the entire army of 30,000 elite soldiers had been wiped out during the Qing Dynasty.
When the news came, the entire command post exploded instantly. Worry, worry, panic, and various emotions and discussions were intertwined, constantly impacting the nerves of Gu Xun.
Gu Xun knew very well that if this expedition failed without success, he would not be able to explain it to the Gudian tribe, and for him, this would also be an unacceptable failure. He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. At the same time, he
Know that you have not lost yet, these are just twists and turns in the war. As long as you can achieve the final victory, all experiences and twists and turns will become the embellishment of victory.
After calming down, Gu Xun quickly came up with a countermeasure. He stopped the attack on the frontal battlefield, shrunk the team again, and at the same time summoned all the strong men above the level to form the tightest defense.
Although they suffered repeated defeats, the top power of the form and realm masters did not suffer much losses. At this time, Gu Xun still had nearly 200,000 elite soldiers, twenty-three form and realm masters, and two artistic conception masters, and their strength was still far away.
Above the ancient mountain tribe, as long as the troops are arranged properly and waiting for Gu Shi to recover from his injuries, the balance of victory will still be in his favor.
Mao Qi led the death squads to fight all the way, as if they were in an uninhabited land. However, he gradually discovered that although he encountered resistance at the beginning, he could only see the enemy fleeing later.
"Little friend Mao Qi, the other side seems to be shrinking its troops, should we still pursue it?" Seeing that the other side was only retreating and not resisting, based on Gu Xiao's experience, he guessed the other side's intention, so he reminded him.
"Chasing. Tell all the soldiers that if you persist all night, you will be able to join the army before dawn tomorrow." After Gu Xiao reminded him, Mao Qi also understood the other party's intentions. Moreover, the decisive battle was about to begin. The mission of the death squads had been completed, and they continued to stay.
There was no point in being in the rear, so we made a decisive decision to take advantage of the opponent's opportunity to shrink their formation and join up with the main force.
"March at night, the direction is not clear, I'm afraid there will be danger." Seeing Mao Qi preparing to march at night, Gu Xiao felt that the risk was extremely high, so he warned.
"Elder Gu Xiao, don't worry, I have my own solution." Mao Qi said confidently.
Seeing Mao Qi's confident look, Gu Xiao didn't ask any more questions.
Mao Qi asked the team to speed up, and at the same time sent out scouts to investigate the contraction of the team in the ancient palace and their garrison location. As for the problem of marching at night, as long as the Mist Spirit Insect Mother is there, everything will not be a problem.
In the evening, Mao Qi asked the soldiers of the Ancient Mountain Tribe to prepare torches and magic stone lanterns, then bypassed the camp of the Ancient Palace team and the first trap area set by the Ancient Mountain Tribe, and moved closer to the Mountain River Fortress.
As night fell, the second line of defense of the Gushan tribe fell into silence. In order to prevent the enemy from sneak attacks, Guli sent people to set up two traps and a number of withered grasses within the range of the arrow tower's crossbow, and at the same time arranged countless
The screech bird, once frightened, will neigh and make different sounds depending on the degree of fright.
When night came, the suicide squad led by Mao Qi held up torches and magic stone lamps, which were like twinkling stars in the dark night, making the soldiers of the ancient temple in the distance look fascinated. Gu Xun also knew that those stars were the soldiers of the ancient mountain returning home, but he did not
Then we sent out troops to encircle and suppress them, firstly because we were afraid of being deceived, and secondly because we felt it was unnecessary.
