Fighting on the battlefield and decisive battle in the arena are not the same concept.
When a super master faces ten or twenty great masters, even if he cannot defeat them, he can still escape. But once he is caught in a military battle surrounded from all sides, with countless spears, swords, and arrows raining down from the sky, the super master cannot stop him.
.
The principle is the same as facing the Celestial Puppet Army. The super master is stronger when he is strong, but he is not so strong that he can ignore the number of enemies.
If the masters from the Twelve Holy Lands and Zhang Jiaquan's millions of elite soldiers were to fight, the former would definitely die in the end, and it would be miserable.
Therefore, the words of the opponents soon aroused the silent agreement of other people, who nodded to varying degrees.
Meng Bang glanced sideways and looked at the opponent, who was wearing a brocade robe and a noble face. He was Dongfang Changsheng, the elder of the Dongfang family.
After several days of recuperation, and with the help of Dongfang Wudi, Dongfang Changsheng has recovered more than half of his injuries, and his face is rosy and full of vitality.
Meng Bang secretly hated him and said with a smile: "The Great Elder Dongfang himself said that if you mobilize your soldiers and horses in the Eastern Zhou military camp, there will be a lot of resistance. In other words, it is not impossible!
Now is the best time to seize the opportunity to pursue the victory and eliminate the Demon Sect. Great Elder, we must not have any selfish thoughts!"
This statement is quite sarcastic, thinking that Dongfang always wins just to preserve the strength of the Dongfang family and deliberately misses the great opportunity to defeat the Demon Sect.
Tuo Yezhen held back a breath of bad breath and raised the flames at the right time: "If the demon sect is not eliminated, the world will be unrest! The head of the Dongfang family and the great elder have good strategies, so they should cooperate!"
Others were cunningly silent.
If the Dongfang Family is willing to mobilize their soldiers and horses in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty to attack Wei Yudao Jiedu Envoy's Mansion, it will be a good strategy. Then all of them will be dispatched. As long as the masters of the Demon Sect dare to come, none of them will be spared!
If you think about it more deeply, it can also weaken the strength of the Dongfang Family, which is really killing two birds with one stone.
But Dongfang Wudi and Dongfang Changsheng are not fools, so how could they agree? If the other party doesn't agree, there is nothing anyone can do, so why bother to offend them.
As expected, Dongfang Changsheng looked directly at Tuo Yezhen: "If we launch troops rashly, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty will be in chaos. Who will be responsible for this? I, the Dongfang family, can't do it for a demon sect and make people miserable!"
After hearing this, everyone showed approval, but some people sneered secretly, just not wanting to expose Dongfang Changsheng's hypocrisy.
Mengbang and Toye had the ugliest expressions on their faces. If the Dongfang family didn't agree to this, there would be nothing they could do.
When they thought about the death of a super master in their family but could not take revenge, the two of them were so aggrieved that they burst into anger and simply stopped participating in the next topic.
In recent days, these twenty-six people who can dominate the Twelve Holy Lands have gathered here every night to discuss the following countermeasures based on the situation during the day, but they have never been able to decide on a charter.
In fact, it was not just Mengbang and Toyezhen. Everyone except Master Jingkong wanted to take revenge immediately. For more than three hundred years, the Twelve Holy Lands were accustomed to being aloof and had never been beaten so hard.
But after several nights in a row, it became clear to everyone that there was really nothing we could do at the moment.
If you can't catch the core masters of the Demon Sect originally, you can also start with the Demon Sect elites lurking in Gusu City.
However, long before they arrived and broke the formation covering Su Ancient City, those people had already fled in advance. Even if they caught some cats and dogs, they could not get any useful information at all.
At the same time, some of the main figures from the six sects who were previously responsible for arresting Jianghu warriors also disappeared. They were obviously guilty of committing crimes.
What is left to the Twelve Holy Lands now is the mess of Gusu City!
After the discussion was fruitless, everyone broke up unhappy again, realizing in their hearts that this matter would probably end there.
In addition to chasing down the masters of the Demon Sect, the Twelve Holy Lands sent out the remaining formation masters of each family as soon as the war ended, trying to study the holy energy of the Celestial Puppet and find a way to enter the underground.
It is obvious that the Twelve Holy Lands are still obsessed with the Demon Emperor Pearl and have illusions in their hearts.
The Holy Qi of the Heavenly Puppet is expanding outward every day, but the speed is slowing down day by day, from the initial several hundred meters per day, to one hundred meters, then to fifty meters, and now to less than ten meters per day.
According to the prediction of the formation master, the amount of Heavenly Puppet Holy Qi is limited, and with the adjustment of the internal formation, it will eventually stabilize within a certain range.
In contrast, the demonic Qi of the Heavenly Puppet is shrinking inward every day, as if being swallowed up by the Holy Qi of the Heavenly Puppet.
The eighth day after the end of the war.
The Holy Qi of the Heavenly Puppet finally stopped expanding. It was a silvery white area, covering a radius of dozens of miles like a mist. It could not be blown by the wind and looked like catkins. The windy and sunny weather actually reflected a circle.
The colorful halo looks extremely ethereal and dreamy from a distance.
But only those who have experienced it know how terrifying this beautiful thing is.
In the years since then, this area has become a world-famous restricted area, but due to its gorgeous and colorful scenery, it has also earned the nickname "Rainbow Hell".
Every year, a large number of warriors come from north and south of the Yangtze River just to stop and have a look. Later, it even became a must-visit place for literati, travelers, celebrities, and even young ladies, which I will not mention later.
All methods were exhausted, but the Twelve Holy Lands were unable to do anything against the Holy Qi of the Heavenly Puppet. Half a month after the war ended, each family had the intention of returning.
This time they came out in full force, and the defense of the base camp seemed very weak. Although it was protected by a large formation, it was not easy to stay outside for too long.
Of course, the research on the Holy Qi of the Heavenly Puppet cannot be stopped. After discussion, each family planned to find a way to gather all the well-known formation masters and even poison path masters in the world to overcome this problem together.
In a huge camp where the Dongfang Family is located.
"No news yet?" Dongfang Changsheng sat behind the desk, tapping his fingers on the tabletop, raising his cold eyes and looking at the Dongfang Jingting opposite.
Dongfang Jingting cupped his hands and said: "My subordinates have mobilized the intelligence power of the family to conduct a thorough investigation of all ships and passengers passing through the docks in the Sanjiang River Basin in the past month.
I have also ordered people to draw portraits and search for traces of that group of people in major cities. As long as those people don’t have wings, I believe they will be exposed sooner or later!”
Such aggressive use of intelligence power was rare in the history of the Dongfang family, but Dongfang Changsheng was still dissatisfied and said calmly: "Inform Dongfang Tao and ask his people to cooperate with the action!"
Dongfang Jingting was shocked when he heard that Dongfang Tao was now at the height of his power in the Dongfang family. As he exercised his supervisory duties, everyone except the head of the family and the elders were within his scope of supervision. His influence could be said to extend throughout the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
But because of this, under normal circumstances, even Dongfang Tao would not dare to use this power in a big way, lest he be feared by the head of the family and the great elder.
Unexpectedly, this time, in order to find people from the Sanjiang League and the Mozhu Gang, the First Elder actually took the initiative to speak.
However, Dongfang Jingting had an upright character and never talked nonsense. This was somewhat similar to Dongfang Tao, so he suppressed the shock in his heart, cupped his fists and said, "I obey," he took a few steps back, turned around and left the tent.
After Dongfang Jingting left, a voice sounded faintly: "Is it worth doing this?"
Dongfang Changsheng stood up and turned his head. Six feet to his right, a middle-aged man with a handsome face and dressed in green clothes appeared at some point six feet to his right. He held his hands behind his back and looked at him with a smile.
"I've met the Patriarch!" Dongfang Changsheng bowed slightly. In the whole world, the only person in the world who can make him so respectful is the Patriarch Dongfang Wudi.
Raising his head, Dongfang Changsheng regained his usual determination and replied: "To be honest with the family master, I have had people look for traces of Zhuo Mufeng since the first day of escape, but nothing has been found.
A few days ago, Fang learned from several Eastern Zhou warriors that he did not die underground. On the contrary, he not only lived well, but also saved those Eastern Zhou warriors. According to them, Zhuo Mufeng did not even die.
Injuried."
Dongfang Wudi's eyes moved slightly.
"The head of the family knows how fierce the battle was. In the entire underground, less than one percent of the people from each family escaped, but even those who were as powerful as Nangong Chi, Kang Du and others, according to eyewitnesses, were all seriously injured.
At that time, during the decisive battle at the entrance of the passage, I paid special attention and did not find Zhuo Mufeng, which proves that he was still deep in the depths at that time, but he was able to escape later and his condition was not affected. Family leader, don't you think there is something wrong inside?"
Speaking of this, there was even a slight tremor in Dongfang Changsheng's tone, which surprised Dongfang Wudi.
After getting along for decades, the old man in front of me has always been strategizing, keeping his emotions and anger in check, and nothing can make him lose his composure.
But just now, Dongfang Wudi discovered a hint of fear on Dongfang Changsheng's face. Although it was fleeting, he thought he could not misread it.
He didn't care about the family master's surprise, or that the person in front of him was trustworthy, so Dongfang Changsheng didn't hide it at all, and said calmly: "I once told the family master that I gave Zhuo Mufeng two drops of Heavenly Puppet Liquid, but
No effect."
Dongfang Wudi sighed: "It seems that this boy is indeed a rare talent in the world."
"No!" Dongfang Changsheng's turbid eyes suddenly shone with divine light, accompanied by strong murderous intent: "The prodigy is real, but I suspect another thing. The reason why those two drops of Celestial Puppet Liquid did not work is because
In addition to Zhuo Mufeng's own qualifications, perhaps it is also related to his physique."
"Physique?" Dongfang Wudi couldn't help but be startled, but if he could firmly hold the position of the head of the family, how could he be a fool? Relating to Dongfang Changsheng's previous words, he blurted out: "The great elder doubts that this boy can withstand poison?"
Dongfang Changsheng sneered: "The Holy Qi of the Heavenly Puppet, even super masters like us, can't avoid it, but in that environment, Zhuo Mufeng was still able to save his life, and recovered after that, and he was fine. In addition to the previous
Two drops of Heavenly Puppet Liquid. If you say that there is nothing wrong with him, I will kill you to believe it!
He is extremely talented, has unparalleled qualifications, is brave and resourceful, has a deep city, and now seems to be invulnerable to all kinds of poisons. Such a person is really terrible."
Dongfang Changsheng shook his head quietly, his old face full of solemnity and fear.
