Chapter two hundred and eighty seventh west frontier
At noon the next day, Prince Ning Qi put on his battle armor and led an army of 300,000 to join the masters of various sects.
Zhan Chen glanced at the two armies and saw the mighty and majestic momentum of the two armies. It reminded him of the battle of Moluo Sect again, and the generosity in his heart stirred up again.
Most of the soldiers in the army have cultivation levels between Martial Master and Martial Lord. Those who have the Martial King cultivation level can serve as centurions. There are less than thirty generals who actually have the Martial Emperor cultivation level.
Although their cultivation level is not high, they are more powerful because of their numbers. When gathered together, they can defeat any strong person below the Martial Saint.
Although the alliance armies of various sects are small in number, they are of high quality. There are more than 300 strong Emperor Wu alone, thousands of strong kings Wu, and hundreds of thousands of other strong masters Wu. Their combat effectiveness far exceeds that of the Daning team.
The two armies merged into one force, numbering as many as 400,000 people.
Ning Qi and Wu Zhihe stood side by side on the high platform. They were the two with the highest cultivation level in the army. Moreover, Wu Zhihe was also a very important figure in Xuan Dao Sect. He had been appointed by Ning Yu as deputy governor and entrusted with supervision.
With the right to act expediently at critical moments, his status is on par with Ning Qi's.
Looking at the majesty of Daning, Ning Qi was quite proud and asked Wu Zhihe: Elder Wu, what do you think of my Daning cavalry?
Wu Zhihe smiled slightly and said: It is indeed well-deserved.
How big is the gap compared to the masters of Guizong?
I haven't done any comparison below. Wu Zhihe didn't know how to answer, so he could only be so perfunctory.
Ning Qi continued: "I don't think this army can defeat anyone. Elder Wu, you sect masters can all take a rest. The western border area can be defended by my Daning cavalry."
Wu Zhihe said seriously: Your Highness, there are evil monsters and monsters attacking outside the Western Frontier, and there are rogue cultivators and bandits inside. In the past, it was Daning and our Righteous Alliance who cooperated sincerely and worked together to achieve peace.
Nowadays, the prosperity of the Western Frontier is no longer that of the Central Plains. If the two of us cannot work together, there may be another disturbance, and the situation will be difficult to deal with by then.
Okay, Elder Wu, it’s okay not to mention this matter. The most important thing now is to bring the troops to the west. Ning Qi didn’t agree with the conversation, so she found an excuse to change the topic.
Wu Zhihe also replied that what the prince said was very true.
So they conducted some more arrangement exercises, which took about an hour, and finally the team was able to reluctantly obey the arrangements, and then started on the road.
The army moved all the way west, stopping and moving at a very slow speed. It took more than three months to reach the western frontier.
Zhan Chen raised his eyes and felt that the scenery here was different from the places he had experienced before. This was a world composed of gray and yellow. The gray was the sky and the yellow was the earth.
, full of yellow dust, even the lone tree in the distance was dyed gray. The wind blew violently, and the sand fell like rain, making people have to squint their eyes and shut their mouths.
If you open your mouth even a little, you will be blown into a mouthful of sand.
The wind was so strong that Ning Qi had to ask the team to retreat and find a cliff with the wind to rest for a while. After waiting for about two hours, the wind and sand began to weaken, but the team took the time to set off on the road before the wind and sand stopped completely.
Because there is a proverb circulating in this vast desert: In the sky in the west, the girl's mood becomes so fast. If we encounter such horrible weather again in the middle of the desert, I am afraid that many low-level warriors will die.
Walking on the soft sand, it sank every step of the way, which made people feel uncomfortable, but there was nothing they could do about it. Fortunately, the wind and sand gradually subsided, and the bright sky also lifted the gray veil covering the face.
In the team, Zhan Chen felt that his vision suddenly became clearer, his breathing became much smoother, and his mood naturally became much happier. He began to look at this strange world with interest. The desert in the west was completely silent. In addition to sand dunes, there were only sand dunes in his eyes.
The wind brought waves of faint moans, like a desolate song, trying to ease their loneliness.
The only thing that stood out was the few mushroom rocks or cacti that popped up every once in a while, and the occasional insect or two that emerged from under their feet. Other than that, they were the only ones.
The wind and sand finally stopped, the blue sky became bluer, and the gentle sun began to become harsh. The scorching sunlight shone on the sand dunes, not only burning the soles and skin of everyone, but also stabbing everyone's eyes.
Even taking a breath of air makes people feel like their lungs are being cooked.
Everyone was a martial artist or above, and there was no shortage of drinking water, so they couldn't help but speed up their pace, hoping to escape from this sea of misery as soon as possible. However, by the time the sun went down, their wish could not be fulfilled.
It was getting dark and the people were exhausted, so Ning Qi had to order to set up camp and rest. They found a piece of flat land to set up tents, raised a bonfire, set up barbecues, and then took out wine jars. They gathered in twos and threes, drank and talked, and had a good time.
It's a different feeling. If you're drunk or sleepy, just take a nap in the tent, which is enough to relieve your worries and fatigue.
Early the next morning, Ning Qi gathered her troops and hit the road again. Fortunately, in the next ten days, the weather was clear and the journey was quiet, saving countless twists and turns. That day, at dusk again, an oasis finally popped up in the field of vision, making everyone
The people's spirits were lifted.
Ning Qi even shouted excitedly: Here we are, finally at Yue'er Bay. After passing Yue'er Bay, we are not far from our destination, the Genxi Mountains.
Yue'er Bay is a vast oasis. The Yue'er Lake in the center has hundreds of miles of blue waves and has never dried up for thousands of years. It nourishes the shady green trees and irrigates the vast farmland. The fruity fragrance is fragrant everywhere, and the fragrant grass exhales. Fruity fragrance
Among the fragrance of flowers, people's laughter lingered.
There are no towering cities here, only scattered towns and villages. There is neither the threat of demon cultivators nor the intrusion of monster beasts. It is like a fairyland on earth, better than a paradise on earth.
Even Ning Qi's army was entangled by the beautiful scenery here. They rested here for three days before embarking on the journey again. A few days later, they saw a broken river. Zhan Chen heard from others.
They knew that this river was the Xilan River marked on the map, which was located on the nine major rivers in the Genxi Mountains. Following this river straight up, they could reach their destination.
Sure enough, as the team headed west along the Xilan River, the greenery became thicker and thicker, and the crowds along the way became denser and denser. Finally, they saw several big cities, and they were spread out along the river. It is reported that Xilan alone
The river feeds as many as 20 million people
However, they did not stay long in these bustling cities, but continued to move forward. One day, the endless mountains appeared in their eyes, and the Genxi Mountains finally arrived.
During the five-month journey, we experienced many hardships and obstacles. When we saw the destination, everyone only felt relief.
So they hurried towards the mountains. The scenery above the Genxi Mountains was completely different from that at the bottom. The higher they went, the lower the temperature, and the trees grew taller and taller. When they reached the top of the mountain, a swath of spiritual trees actually appeared.
The richness of spiritual energy is not inferior to the main peaks of some medium-sized sects.
In the morning of Zhan, they climbed to the highest spiritual peak among them, called Qingxu Jade Peak, which was thousands of feet high. Looking up, they could clearly see that there was a huge city built on the top of the peak, called Qingxu Jade Peak.
Jade City can accommodate millions of people. To be more precise, it is a military fortress with strong walls and tight guards. Even low-level emperors cannot easily break through its walls.
If you stand on the watchtower in the city and use special equipment to look down, you can have a panoramic view of the surrounding area for thousands of miles. And this big city is the base camp of Daning.
Reaching the top of the mountain, Zhan Chen looked to the left and right, and saw mountains one after another with no end in sight; looking down again, he saw a big river rushing down from the snow peaks on the mountain, in front of Qingxu Jade Peak, rushing between the mountains.
An extremely wide river valley emerges. This river is called Xuyu River, and this river valley is called Xuyu River Valley.
The Xuyu Valley of the Xuyu River stretches forward until it reaches the misty place. There seems to be a huge black line looming, which is not clear. Zhan Chen stared at the black line for a long time, and suddenly had a guess in his heart: Could it be the place in the legend?
abyss pool
It's a pity that the hateful cloud and mist, like the green gauze covering the face of a stunning woman, covered everything up and aroused Zhan Chen's desire even more.
At this time, the large army had arrived at the gate of Qingxu Jade City. A general in armor led the crowd to welcome him out of the city. As soon as he met Ning Qi, he immediately knelt down on one knee, bowed his hands and said: "I will see Lin Qi, the last general."
His Highness the Prince
The general quickly asked Ning Qi to help him up.
Your Highness, the general has been waiting for you to come and take charge of the overall situation. Please follow me into the city quickly.
Ning Qi nodded and led the army into the city. After entering the city, Zhan Chen was arranged with the army in the base camp in the east of the city. Lin Qi led Ning Qi, Wu Zhihe and several other important commanders
Entered the city lord's mansion in the center of the city.
When they arrived at the living room, Lin Qi took the initiative to give up his position as commander-in-chief. Prince Ning Qi did not give in and sat directly on him. He said to Lin Qi: General Lin, we are new here. I hope you can tell us the details of the situation in the Western Frontier.
Say it again.
When Lin Qi heard this question, he looked embarrassed.
What's wrong, General Lin? Is there any problem? Ning Qi couldn't help but ask again.
