Yu Xian noticed that the formation was loose and immediately struggled to break free from Hulao Pass.
The remaining formations were activated quickly like a waking creature. The formations that were still intact stabilized the formation while squirming and spreading, trying to suppress Yu Xian again.
Yu Xian assessed the consumption just now.
Due to the limitations of his physical body, the loss of energy and spirit was not serious, and he seemed to be able to hit another blow.
Yu Xian did not hesitate.
He saw that the word "Taihang" was slightly dim, and knew that the magic weapon had just been restored and could not be used to catch all the benefits. He immediately turned around and smashed the end with the word "王屋" inscribed on it against another node on the city wall.
Because the city wall was damaged, this stick hit the remaining city gates, revealing even more astonishing destructive power.
A huge gap was opened in the thick city wall, and broken bricks and mud tiles poured down the gap.
Taoist Banshan, who was pulling the formation, felt as if he had been hit in the head with a stick. His vision went black and he spurted out a mouthful of blood again.
When he came back to his senses, this Qi practitioner, who had been practicing for many years, felt the taste of fear for the first time.
He tried his best to activate the formation and suppress Yu Xian again.
As Taoist Banshan drove the remaining formations, the land around Hulao Pass rolled, as if it came to life, slowly crawling to cover the damaged city wall.
Yu Xian watched helplessly as the broken wounds on the city wall were slowly being repaired. He held the wooden stick in his hand and hesitated for a moment.
One more blow and he might have to fight for his life.
If we don't fight and wait until all the formation patterns are restored, then tonight's efforts will be in vain.
This moment of hesitation quickly changed the outcome of the fight.
The surging fresh soil squirmed faster and faster, like a huge stomach, quickly wrapping up the ruins that Yu Xian smashed.
The formation's suppression, which was originally somewhat relaxed, became overbearing again.
Seeing this, Yu Xian could only temporarily rest his thoughts and find another way to break the formation.
In one thought, the shower stopped and the dark clouds dissipated.
As Yu Xian died down and withdrew from the battle, the fresh soil surrounding Hulao Pass slowly slowed down its creeping speed.
When the formation was completely penetrated, the fresh soil slowly wriggled away from the city wall.
The scene was like a monster spitting out a city from its mouth.
Yu Xian raised his eyes and looked up.
Half of the city wall that he had destroyed before had been completely restored to its original state, and even the towers on the city wall did not appear to have changed at all.
Dense soil fills every broken pore, making the city seem stronger than before.
Yu Xian was convinced after seeing it.
"As expected of a ruthless person who rebelled from Heming Mountain, what a good method!"
"It seems I made things simple."
At the same time, the Banshan Taoist outside Shouzhang City also stopped using his magic with lingering fear.
"Are all juniors so fierce nowadays?"
"Almost killed me!"
The disadvantages of fighting in the air are too great. If Taoist Banshan hadn't sensed Yu Xian's retreat just now, he might have had to cut off his tail to survive.
Taoist Banshan was depressed for a while, but he thought of something and felt better again.
He smiled.
"so what?"
…
From the time Yu Xian decided to break the formation to the moment Taoist Banshan counterattacked and suppressed him again, the time it took was only half a stick of incense.
However, during this half-stick of incense, the soldiers who were watching saw a scene they had never seen before in their lives.
A majestic pass was easily knocked down and then restored to its original state.
Then there was no response from one of the fighting parties, and the other party lay down and fell asleep.
Are these all people?
The soldiers who were watching all looked at each other wildly in disbelief.
The city guard was the first to react. He lowered his voice and said, "I'm going to see Colonel Cao right now. You guys stay here and don't let anyone get close."
He turned around, took two steps, and warned sternly, "Don't say nonsense that you shouldn't say."
The guards nodded quickly.
Cao Bao got the news from the defenders of the city, and then he knew what the thunderstorm was about in the middle of the night.
It turned out that under the cover of the strong wind and thunder, the demon trapped under Hulao Pass actually fought with a human.
After listening to the description of the city guard, Cao Bao became more and more frightened.
He was not a brave and resourceful person to begin with, but suppressing such a great god in the place where he was guarding made him even more uneasy.
"Perhaps if old Zhu Jun relents, he can leave here and return to Xuzhou."
Then another thought occurred.
"My girl is beautiful and fragrant, and it's time for her to get married. How about I use this excuse to ask for leave from Governor Tao and let someone else take my place."
After Cao Bao had this thought, he no longer planned to get involved in these things.
He told the soldiers in the camp, "If Mi Fang comes back tomorrow, just say that I have some military affairs to deal with and let him go on his own. Even if he invites any guests, there is no need to let me know."
Cao Bao wanted to leave, so he quickly went back to his account and wrote a letter, planning to send someone to Xuzhou at dawn.
As for the evil way suppressing the city, we can only let it go.
Fortunately, a few days later, good news came. Envoys from the Chang'an court would arrive at Hulao Pass in the near future.
In order to show that he attached great importance to this matter, Zhu Jun specially sent two civil servants from Zhongmu, one was Wang Lang, who was in charge of governance in Xuzhou, and the other was Zhao Yu, the prefect of Guangling.
Wang Lang is the legendary Wang Situ who was sprayed to death by Zhuge Liang. As for Zhao Yu, he is just mediocre.
Cao Bao briefly tested the two of them.
Both Wang Lang and Zhao Yu were optimistic about the arrival of the envoy. Judging from the occasional comments, even Zhu Jun was a little moved by the current situation.
Since Liu Bang established the Han Dynasty, there have been a total of twenty-four emperors.
Although there were some wise and powerful people among them, in fact, most emperors had powerful ministers in charge of the court when they were in power.
The newly promoted Marquis Dong Bai is just the most ordinary of the powerful officials in the past dynasties.
What's more, she rarely intervened in court matters publicly, and most of the administrative orders were executed by Wang Yun and Li Jue who stood in front of the stage.
This allowed Zhu Jun, who was waiting for a good opportunity in Zhongmou, to find a chance.
Rather than fighting a hopeless war militarily, it would be better to return to the court and fight Dong Bai in the field in which he is good.
Wang Yun, Yang Biao, Huangfu Song and others were staunch pro-Han faction before. Although the generals of the Guanzhong faction surrendered to Dong Bai again, they had already betrayed Dong Zhuo once, right?
If they can betray Dong Zhuo, they can naturally betray Dong Bai...
Not long after the two civil servants arrived at Hulao Pass, they received an urgent report from a fast horse. Taiwei Zhou Zhong and Shangshu Jia Xu had left Luoyang and would arrive at Hulao Pass soon.
