My Cultivation Starting from Archery-Chapter 851 - 254 Duel_3
Chapter 851: Chapter 254 Duel_3
Because they were too sharp, many people even found themselves still swinging their swords with only half their bodies left. It wasn’t until the pain and the blood spraying out hit them that they realized they were already dead.
The Golden Light Flying Knife was unstoppable all the way, about to directly sever Huang Laojiu’s head from his shoulders!
"Hey!"
Huang Laojiu was taken aback, hastily summoning a vine armor shield.
The shield successfully blocked the flying knife.
However, under the impact of mana, he himself was sent flying, crashing his old bones hard into the city wall, grimacing in pain.
The cultivator from Shengyun Sect didn’t give him any respite, seizing the rebounded golden curved blade and charging back into the fight.
As long as he killed this array master, he would claim the top merit for this attack. Not to mention the Foundation Establishment Pill, he wouldn’t need to worry about resources all the way until the middle-late stage of Foundation Establishment.
"Clang!"
A flying sword stabbed in from the flank.
Cui Zhichen from Seeking Immortal Tower intervened in time to block it, engaging in battle with the attacker.
After Qian Qiren and others freed themselves to help, they finally managed to kill this cultivator after a few rounds.
"Senior Huang."
Cui Zhichen stepped forward to help him up, "Are you alright?"
"How could I be alright? I nearly died!"
Huang Laojiu’s face, like tree bark, was full of agony, "At most, in a few more hours, the great formation will collapse. Where is Daoist Chen, hasn’t he returned yet?"
"..."
Seeing his condition, chased down by a cultivator inferior to himself, Cui Zhichen felt a chill in his heart.
It seemed, for this battle, they couldn’t rely on him and could only depend on... the White Robe.
But the problem was...
Where was he?!
Now, over a hundred thousand of them were trapped inside the Thick Earth Barrier, completely cut off from the outside world, unaware of the situation outside.
According to the originally agreed time.
The reinforcements from the White Robe should have appeared near Bagong Mountain by now, but why was there no movement?
Above them.
The Imperial Jade Seal began to seemingly transform into a living entity, continuously growing larger. With just a few breaths, it had expanded to over a zhang wide, its golden light shining and building pressure.
As one waxed, the other waned, the radiance of the Mysterious Armor Xunfeng Formation fading more and more.
"Suppress!!!"
The heavens and earth echoed with a majestic and deafening "suppress", and the Imperial Jade Seal, over a zhang wide, descended.
The barrier of the Mysterious Armor Xunfeng Formation, like an arc-shaped dome of glass covering the city, was at this moment filled with cracks...
Finally, it could no longer bear the weight, exploding with a roar.
"Boom!"
The entire Kunyang City swayed with a massive tilt, and then was completely exposed to the enemy army.
From this moment, no external force could stop the Imperial Army’s attack, as more and more enemy troops and cultivators surged onto the city walls.
"Brothers!"
"The Commander will be here soon to rescue us!"
"Hold on a little longer!"
"Whether we can win this battle depends entirely on us!"
"Kill for me—"
Wang Zhi shouted as he charged toward the parapet, wielding a Mo Blade.
The soldiers had no room to retreat, each gripping their weapons, fighting bloodily.
Outside the barrier.
After successfully breaking the great formation,
Emperor Longqing lightly raised his hand, retrieving the Imperial Jade Seal into his sleeve.
The Ling Family’s Ancestor, Ling Kui, did not attack the now unprotected Kunyang but instead stood with his sword in the air by the Emperor’s side.
The two stood ready for battle.
Because they could see that on the other side of the Luojian River, forces under the White Robe began forming ranks.
Kunyang City, surrounded by the Thick Earth Barrier, and with the loss of the Mysterious Armor Xunfeng Formation, left the defenders inside like prey in a trap, doomed to die. freēwēbnovel.com
In such a situation, Emperor Longqing and Cao Kai had to guard the Central Army to prevent the White Robe from suddenly launching an attack, causing chaos that could not be managed front and back.
In their view.
On the surface of the Luojian River appeared a small flat boat, carrying only a young man in a long robe without a single weapon, clearly a messenger.
In front of the armies of both sides, no envoy is to be harmed.
With Emperor Longqing’s tacit approval, Sima Chi gradually approached the shore.
"You little thief."
Ling Kui squinted his eyes, mocking, "Since that Chen fellow is here, why is he still sitting motionless? If he delays any longer, the people in Kunyang City will be completely dead."
Sima Chi did not step ashore, standing on the flat boat, calling out in a loud voice, "We have long intended to fight to the death, but as you all fear death, only then was I sent to deliver a challenge."
"Fear death?"
Prince Qin cursed angrily, "You child, do not speak nonsense!"
"Prince Qin, listen as I explain slowly."
Sima Chi leisurely said, "If you do not fear death, why form ranks on the riverbank and set up a barrier? Clearly too afraid to face our army in a frontal battle!
"My Commander sent me to relay a message to you all.
"If you truly wish for a decisive battle, move back twenty li to give our army space to land.
"Once our army has come ashore and formed ranks, then we will fight a decisive battle!
"Otherwise, we will just continue to waste time across the river, with a million strong army consuming resources, let’s see how long you can hold out!"
With those words, he rowed back, adjusting the boat’s head, and left slowly until disappearing on the opposite shore.
"This..."
After hearing the opposing words.
Many generals started discussing.
The current situation was indeed like this.
If they were to continue to stand off across the river, the court couldn’t afford the consumption.
"How about letting them come ashore!"
Prince Qin suggested, "Even if they have two hundred thousand troops, together with our central and rear armies, we have six hundred thousand!"
"Impossible."
Dan Liangcheng spoke up to veto it, lightly cupping his fists toward the Emperor: "Your Majesty, Chen Sansi is anxious.
"Now, Kunyang City’s city defense array has been broken, and before long it will fall. His wife and child are within and will definitely be captured alive by us. The White Robe understands this and yet has been unable to cross the river, which is why they sent someone here to provoke."
