Chapter 571: Immortal Land, Warring Countries, Frequent Battles (2)
There were many countries in the Immortal Land. Every country had built tall city walls on the borders.
These city walls were all set up with peerless array formations that were connected to the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. They also contained the strange power of the country seal. It was almost impossible to break through them head-on, let alone fly over them.
However, at the corners of the city wall, there would be a situation where the power of the seal was weak.
This was an extremely obvious breakthrough point.!!
Every country would build city passes at the corners of the city walls and set up even stronger array formations.
However, this was still not enough to make up for the weak defense of this area.
The city passes also needed to be guarded by experts and even after these experts fused their strength with the city pass array, it would only barely approach the defensive strength of the border city wall.
Therefore, the city pass was still the enemy’s first choice when attacking.
Every city pass was a key fortress for the country.
They were the most important strongholds!
The experts guarding the city pass had long bound themselves to the city pass.
They lived and died with the city pass.
… .
At the border of the Chen Kingdom, the army of the Liang Kingdom stood in formation outside Dacheng Pass.
Dacheng Pass was an extremely important city pass.
This was the core of the array formation of the six nearby city passes. If this city pass was breached, the defense of the other five city passes would plummet and become very easy to breach.
In this way, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the Liang Kingdom outside the city pass could march straight in and enter the hinterland of the Chen Kingdom.
Moreover, these soldiers were not ordinary people. Every one of them was very powerful. They cooperated with each other to form a large array formation and could even offset the power of the country’s seal.
The greatest reliance on the city pass’s defense was the power of the country’s seal and the city protection array.
Once the array was broken and the power of the country’s seal was weakened, the city pass would definitely be lost!
At that time, the entire Chen Kingdom would fall. The territory would be annexed by the Liang Kingdom, the country seal would be refined, and high-level martial artists would be killed.
Only ordinary people would be left behind, but they would also use all kinds of methods to make these people forget the existence of the Chen Kingdom and gradually integrate into the Liang Kingdom, becoming the people of the Liang Kingdom.
At that time, the Chen Kingdom would completely perish.
… .
Inside Dacheng Pass.
The general guarding the pass, Deng Huaiyi, walked down from the city wall with a dark expression. The subordinates waiting below hurriedly welcomed him.
“Great General, how is it? Who’s the commander of the Liang Kingdom’s attack this time? What are our chances of winning?”
Many generals could not help but step forward and ask anxiously.
In a siege battle, individual experts could not cause any damage to the power of the National Seal, so they were only in charge of attacking the array.
Only after breaking through the array could the soldiers work together to weaken the power of the National Seal.
Therefore, the commander of a siege was extremely important. As long as they could resist this commander’s destruction of the array, they could defend the city pass.
However, if the city protection array was broken through, they could only fight the soldiers to the death.
There were not many soldiers in Dacheng Pass, and resources were relatively scarce. They could not afford a war of attrition at all.
As long as they started a drawn out battle, Dacheng Pass would definitely be broken through in the end.
It was precisely for this reason that many generals were so concerned about who the commander of the Liang Kingdom’s army was.
“The commander-in-chief hasn’t appeared yet, but from the military appearance and flag, he should be Chu Feixiao’s subordinate.” Deng Huaiyi’s expression was incomparably solemn as he said this name word by word. It could be seen that he valued this person very much.
“Chu Feixiao! It’s actually him!”
“The Liang Kingdom’s General Family’s Chu Feixiao. I heard that he has long reached the Peak of the Sixth True World Realm.”
“That information is outdated. He has already broken through to the Seventh True World Realm a few years ago.”
“What?! It’s said that a long time ago, the Chu Family also produced a Seventh Realm expert, but he has long disappeared. I didn’t expect another one to appear.”
“We’re in danger this time. Although Dacheng Pass has resisted the attack of a Seventh Realm expert in history, but…”
… .
… .
“Shut up!” Deng Huaiyi finally could not take it anymore and shouted sternly. Then, his gaze swept across everyone and he said in a low voice, “Could it be that you want to abandon the city and escape, or open the city gates and surrender?”
“No, no, General. We don’t mean that at all.”
“General, you’ve misunderstood. The lives of the people guarding the city are already tied to the city pass. How can we escape?”
The generals shook their heads repeatedly.
“In that case, we have to think of a way to defend the city, not boost the reputation of others and destroy our own morale here.” Deng Huaiyi snorted and said, “A Seventh Realm expert is indeed troublesome, but we have the power of the city-protecting array and the National Seal. We might be able to defeat them.”
… .
Outside Dacheng Pass was a desolate land. Dense soldiers were lined up neatly.
Their heights were very uniform. They were all about 30 feet tall. They were dressed in thick pitch-black armor and held huge spears in their hands, as if they could pierce through the world.
They were all First True World Realm experts!
If they were in the starry skies of the outside world, each of them could become a mighty figure who ruled a galaxy. However, in this Immortal Land, they could only be soldiers who attacked the city.
They gathered together, causing the sky of the Immortal Land to become dark, blocking out the sunlight, as if there was darkness that stretched to the end of the sky, and dense killing intent surged.
Beside these soldiers were more than a thousand mixed-blood ferocious beasts of various types. They had already been domesticated and turned into pure war machines.
At this moment, be it the soldiers or the mixed-blood ferocious beasts, they were all looking at the sky, waiting for their commander to descend.
Boom!
At this moment, a loud bang suddenly came from the sky above. The dark sky suddenly lit up with golden light.
Nine huge dragon-shaped mixed-blood ferocious beasts appeared out of thin air and soared through the clouds.
Every one of them had strength equivalent to the Sixth True World Realm.
Golden ropes were wrapped around their bodies, connecting them to a huge war chariot behind them. It slowly drove over from the top of the sky.
The surroundings of the chariot emitted surging Chaotic Qi, and endless pressure descended. The chariot roared as it drove, as if it wanted to crush the world.
All the Liang Kingdom soldiers and generals present knelt on one knee and bowed and shouted at the sky extremely respectfully!
“Welcome, Divine General Feixiao!”
“Welcome, Divine General Feixiao!”
… .
… .
Their voices shook the sky, causing the ground to tremble.
The loud noise naturally spread to Dacheng Pass, causing countless commoners to panic and feel uneasy. The soldiers and generals guarding the city also became nervous.
At this moment, a young man who was eating breakfast on the street looked up at the sky outside with a faint smile.
