258 The collapse of the Western Army

They had shouted for them to retreat, but under such circumstances, how many of them could actually retreat?

In fact, even Kong Tong could not take care of most people.

Wang Bei also noticed the problem. He grabbed li Chengzong’s arm, and without even explaining anything, he immediately flew back.

At this moment, the rock and soil that sealed the tunnel quickly turned red, and a spider web-like crack appeared on it. Then, with a deafening boom, the rock and soil cracked, and the violent explosion brought with it a scorching wind. It mixed with the lava and Flint that were almost melted by the heat, and flew back.

If the number of human cultivators who died under the demonic flames was limited to those below the foundation building realm, then this wave had even affected initial enlightenment cultivators.

When li Chengzong was retreating under Wang Qian’s protection, he saw with his own eyes two initial enlightenment cultivators holding up their defensive magic tools, but they were still broken by the scorching hot rocks, and then their entire bodies disappeared.

With such intense flames, the one who had attacked was definitely the ‘heavenly spirit blood eagle’ Yin Liang.

He was most famous for his explosive heavenly demonic flame, which was extremely powerful. Moreover, the environment of the catacombs passageway was too suitable for him to fight. The surging demonic flames filled the entire passageway, making it impossible for him to hide. He could either fight it head-on or die.

However, who could be a match for a Great Demon King like Yin Liang, who was only a step away from a level five demon Emperor, if they were to face him head-on? Even a ninth-stage golden core realm cultivator like Kong Tong didn’t dare to fight Yin Liang head-on in such a narrow environment.

For now, the only way was to retreat from the catacombs environment first. Only then could he try to see if he could still fight.

But li Chengzong felt very pessimistic about this.

He turned around and saw a half-eagle, half-human figure chasing out of the flames like a Demon God. Following closely behind was a black shadow, which was probably another Demon King no less powerful than Yin Liang. Its original body was the Mantis demon lang Hua.

And following closely behind them were all sorts of monster soldiers with their morale greatly boosted. Other than the monster race from the mo Yue cave, there were some other types of monsters that seemed to be from the West of the North barren forest.

Obviously, these two big demon kings didn’t come alone. They might not be able to bring a large Army back from the Western battlefield, but they still brought a small elite team.

In the following period of time, the two Greater Demon monarchs personally led the demons to counterattack and completely defeat the West Army.

When they had received the news that the monster King was about to arrive, Kong Tong and Wang Bei had set up the corresponding formation at the West army camp. If the monster Kings had come before they attacked mo Yue catacombs, the two of them would enter the formation personally. At the same time, the human cultivators would provide them with power to fight the two peak-level monster Kings.

However, they didn’t expect the other party to be so cunning. They had arrived early and laid an ambush in mo Yue’s cave. They took advantage of the human cultivators “large-scale attack to suddenly attack, catching Kong Tong and Wang Yan completely off guard.

There was no point in thinking about how these two monster Kings managed to sneak into mo Yue cave when they were surrounded by their own forces.

Kong Tong and Wang Yan had a tacit understanding. After they exited the catacombs, the first thing they wanted to do was to return to the cultivator Army. As long as they worked together to activate the formation that they had prepared beforehand, they could still put up a fight.

He was definitely no match for the two demon kings. He could only rely on the array he had prepared in advance.

However, Yin Liang and lang Luan had gone to great lengths to create such an opportunity, so how could they give Kong Tong and Wang Xi the chance to escape and preside over the formation?

The two of them kept a close eye on Kong Tong and Wang Yan. After lang Yun left the environment of the catacombs ‘passageway, his speed of movement suddenly increased. The power he had seemed to be related to shadows. Then, he appeared not far from Wang Yan.

His overall appearance was like a combination of a human and a Mantis, and he was about two meters tall. His head and torso looked like a human’s, while his forelimbs were like a pair of enlarged Mantis blades, which looked very sharp. There were two pairs of insect wings on the back of his human body. They were obviously not decorations and could carry him to fly. historical

The insect’s wings trembled as he charged at Wang Yan.

Wang Jie raised his hand, and six black and white magic swords appeared in front of him. They formed a hexagonal sword formation and blocked lang Xi.

He was a swordsman.

After blocking the Mantis demon, Wang Qian didn’t forget to shout at li Chengzong behind him,”Your Highness, run!”

Li Chengzong was somewhat hesitant, but he knew that with his own strength, he definitely wouldn’t be able to interfere in a battle of this level. Staying here would only add to the chaos.

Gritting his teeth, li Chengzong activated a water escape technique he had mastered and left the battlefield.

Lang Luan did not chase after him. Of course, he knew that someone who could make a golden core cultivator value him so much must have an extraordinary identity. However, he still didn’t forget their mission: Here, he would take advantage of this great opportunity to kill Kong Tong and Wang Ben. Then, the situation in the eastern part of the North barren forest would be completely reversed.

Compared to the overall situation of the battle, the identity of the person who ran away was no longer important.

Even the Crown Prince of Great Yan was the same.

Even if the Crown Prince of Great Yan was captured alive, would the Yan Kingdom stand on the side of the North barren forest? That’s impossible. Great Yan would only choose a new crown Prince, and then put in more effort to beat them up.

When Wang Yun and lang Yun were facing each other, on the other side, Kong Tong was already engaged in battle with the heavenly spirit blood eagle.

Kong Tong originally had the hope of escaping. However, when he saw the heavenly spirit blood eagle continuously tossing out thick demonic flames while chasing after him and massacring the Qingfeng sect’s cultivators, he could no longer hold back.

Kong Tong’s fighting style was very varied. He wasn’t very talented, and his compatibility with the Qingfeng sect’s Supreme Sword Art, the ‘Green Phoenix sword Scripture’, wasn’t good. He could still use it, but it wasn’t his main technique. His main method was still to combine many Five Element spells together to form a battle style that matched his own characteristics.

This was the helplessness of cultivators who were not very talented.

However, in a certain sense, Kong Tong could be considered a special kind of genius for being able to reach his current level with only three spiritual roots and without any special fortuitous encounters.

He knew a lot of things, and he had studied all kinds of five elements cultivation techniques. Even if it was not within his three spirit roots, he would still learn it and find and extract the content that could strengthen himself. He was also very familiar with the usage and combinations of various spells. In addition to that, he had really lived up to the word ‘perseverance’ in his cultivation, which was why he was able to reach his current level.

In the blink of an eye, rock Spears, water chains, flame explosions, wood-attribute poisonous mist, and all sorts of other curses were unleashed, covering the bright cage and even suppressing the demonic flames.

Kong Tong’s hands were rapidly changing between different spells. Many magic tools that could enhance the effect and power of his spells rose from behind him and spun behind his head, increasing the power and speed of his spells.

He was experienced and skilled in casting spells, and the various curses complemented each other very well. Under the control of the water rope, the fire exploded and the rising steam was driven by the curse of wind. As the temperature continued to rise, it also covered the demonic Eagle. There were even some spells that were hidden to attack the soul and confuse the mind, which also interfered with the bright Kasaya.

Li Chengzong heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

In the past, he had always looked down on Kong Tong. He felt that this person’s talent wasn’t good enough, and that he hadn’t done well enough to become the sect leader of the Qingfeng sect. In a remote place like the Feiyun state, where there weren’t many strong people, he still couldn’t suppress the entire state. Instead, he was left in a terrible state by the internal affairs of the sect and the cultivation clans in the states and counties.

But today, it seemed that this person was still capable.

Just as he was thinking, two tier-three demonic beasts had their eyes on him.

Li Chengzong fought as he ran. If he turned around and fought now, he was confident that he could kill these two tier-three demonic beasts. However, he didn’t dare to do so. If he fought too conspicuously, he might attract the attention of the greater Demon King.

What’s more, the human cultivators were on the verge of collapse and couldn’t form an effective resistance at all. If the battle dragged on for a long time, he might be surrounded by a large number of monster beasts, and it would be difficult to escape at that time.

After paying a price, li Chengzong managed to escape.

In between, he had encountered danger a few times, even being targeted by a Mantis demon that had the strength of a peak 3rd rank and was on par with him.

This demon Mantis might be lang Yun’s relative. He had brought it from the Western Battlefront and was very powerful. Li Chengzong might not necessarily be unable to defeat them, but if they did, they would definitely be surrounded and attacked. Thus, he could only run.

This chase and escape took four hours. He had paid a heavy price to finally get rid of the pursuit.

The injured li Chengzong didn’t dare to show his face. He even knew that the Mantis demon leading the large group of demons was still chasing after him, so he didn’t dare to show his face.

...

After identifying the direction, he tried to escape to a place further away from the core battlefield.

He didn’t know what the situation was like now, so he was very pessimistic. Earlier, he had seen a large number of cultivators from the Qingfeng sect running all over the mountains and plains, without any organization. The cultivators who dared to organize a resistance against their fellow disciples would often be targeted very quickly. They would either die or be scattered again.

In addition, he was also very worried about the safety of his teacher, Wang Ben.

This was a person he had relied heavily on in the process of fighting for the throne. The cultivation of the Golden core stage was secondary. With his identity, it was not impossible to find a golden core to be his teacher or a guest. However, Wang Jie’s identity was special. He was one of the elders of Yunxiao sect, and Yunxiao sect’s support was decisive in his fight for the throne. Half of the support he obtained in Yunxiao sect actually came from Wang Jie’s network of connections.

In addition, Wang Lian had indeed taught him a lot over the years, and their personal relationship was also very good. They were both teacher and friend.

Wang Yan was indeed good to him. Otherwise, Wang Yan’s first reaction would not have been to drag him away when the Demon King attacked. To put it bluntly, what did he, a Yunxiao sect elder, care about the death of a Crown Prince? Being punished was one thing, but it wouldn’t have any substantial impact. At most, he wouldn’t be able to stay in Yan city in the future, and it would be quite enjoyable to return to his sect and live a carefree life.

If they didn’t have a good relationship and really treated li Chengzong as their own junior, how could they be like this?

Thus, no matter how one looked at it, li Chengzong did not wish for anything to happen to Wang Bei, even if this war completely fell apart.

However, things were unpredictable. Often, what one was most worried about would happen.

Six hours after the mo Yue cave’s defensive formation was broken, li Chengzong’s heart skipped a beat. A wave of frustration and sadness rose up.

At this moment, li Chengzong knew that Wang Bei was dead.

...

This wasn’t a premonition. There was a kind of soul spell linking him and Wang Yan. This spell could sense if the other party was in danger, and they could even sense each other’s location.

The original intention of the two of them arranging this spell was that if li Chengzong encountered any danger, Wang Bei would come to his rescue.

However, he never thought that after the battle in the North barren forest, the first time this spell technique was used, it would sound the death knell for his teacher, Wang qianming, in li Chengzong’s heart.

In that instant, he wanted to turn around and fight these demonic beasts to the death.

He used his rationality to suppress this impulse.

But at this moment, the aura leaked out and woke him up-this could be sensed!

As expected, he felt the auras of the demonic beasts around him start to move in his direction.

He spat and prepared to use all his spiritual power to escape. Suddenly, he sensed the appearance of another aura.

It shouldn’t be the aura of a demon, but of a human cultivator.

Then, the demonic beasts that might have sensed his aura leaking out earlier were killed one by one.

Li Chengzong raised his eyebrows in surprise.

These demonic beasts were not strong. If he were to make a move, he could easily kill them. However, these demonic beasts were all scattered in all directions, and each of them was not close to each other. Most importantly, the person who had attacked him was probably only at the initial stage of the initial stage of the initial enlightenment realm. However, even he, who was at the peak of the naming system, was unable to capture the trajectory of the other party’s movements.

He could sense that the person who had suddenly appeared was in the North for a moment. After killing a demon, he instantly appeared in another direction.

This movement technique was a little mystical. It should be some kind of escape technique that he had never seen before.

At this moment, li Chengzong was in no hurry to do anything.

If there was a good initial enlightenment cultivator who could travel with him, the journey would be much safer. At least, they could help each other.

After a while, he saw a woman in a purple Daoist robe walking out from the depths of the forest.

Seeing this person, li Chengzong was a little surprised.”You are Xuanji’s Lu mingchao?”

“It’s me, Your Highness.” The referee bowed to Bin Bin.

“What are you doing here? Could it be that your two armies have already arrived?” A ray of hope rose in li Chengzong’s heart.

Ming Chao poured the water on him. no, I’m the only one.

Even though he knew that it was unlikely, he could not hide his disappointment after hearing mingchao’s words.”Are you here to observe the battle on the front lines on behalf of the North and Northwest armies? there was no need to look anymore, everything had already collapsed. He had to quickly return and tell Li Yanling and hai Sande. We have to leave the North barren forest as soon as possible. I think Yin Liang and lang Luan will come after us. We have to be prepared for the battle with the monster race in the Feiyun state.”

Lu mingchao shook her head gently and said, ” “The North Army already knows about this. I’m still going to the central battlefield to take a look. Your Highness, you can go first.”

“Ha?” Li Chengzong didn’t understand what was going on. Did this female cultivator in front of him not understand what he had just said?

Ming Chao didn’t want to waste any more time.

To her, helping the Crown Prince solve a small problem was just something she did in passing.

She had more important things to do.

Lu Ming turned around and headed toward the center of the battlefield.

Over there, a few golden core cultivators and demons were fighting each other to the death. The explosive true core and demonic energy were even more obvious than the bright moon in the dark night. They couldn’t be looking in the wrong direction.
