Black air filled the air, and a huge skeleton rose from the ground. The sound was rumbling, as if a mountain was rising.
The head comes out first, followed by the neck, shoulder blades, spine, and ribs. By the time the upper body comes out of the soil, it has grown to an unreachable height.
This giant's head is several feet high, and its eye sockets are empty, and it's dark and bottomless when you look inside. There is a hollow on the top of the huge and protruding frontal bone, as if a third eye originally grew there.
This is by no means an imaginary phantom, nor is it a toy made of broken bones under the city tower, but a real skeleton of some kind of creature, but it is extremely huge and beyond human imagination. It is covered with mud and decaying grass blades, condensed with the dust of vicissitudes of life, and is already a relic that cannot be traced back to the past.
However, when Shangqing's illusory spirit passed through the skeleton and entered it, the skull and eye sockets became dim and bright, as if his soul had been injected into it.
Jiang Shenyi looked in the air, breathing a little quickly: "This is..."
"It's the skeleton of a demon." Feng Zhilie had more experience and immediately judged: "There are hundreds of demons in different shapes, and I can't recognize them all. It's probably the skeleton of a demon that invaded before, and he coiled it into a spiritual servant. This strength... …Can."
This skeleton is obviously a dead thing, but it still retains layers of power from when it was alive. When its skull is lit up, the momentum rises uncontrollably and almost condenses into a solid body.
That is different from the suppression of the soul, but the overflow of power. When the powerful power reaches a certain limit, it naturally forms an irresistible aura.
Jiang Shenyi also felt depressed at high altitude, and his posture involuntarily adjusted to defensive. Feng Zhilie suddenly smiled and said: "I don't think the problem is big."
Jiang Shenyi raised his eyebrows, Feng Zhilie held the bow with his backhand, and his figure continued to fade as before, saying: "No matter how powerful this devil is, he is dead now, so what are you afraid of? You and I work together, use the greatest strength, and shoot an arrow Wear it!”
Jiang Shenyi stared at the bow, and suddenly reached out to pull the girl in red, but she was already a shadow, and his hand could only pass through her figure to hold the bow. He easily pulled up the bow, hung it on his wings, and sneered: " Stop joking, are you looking down on me?"
The wings of the wind were like a dexterous hand, hanging the bow together with the girl's shadow like a decoration. Jiang Shenyi pulled it casually and pulled out a slender lightning bolt from the thunder wings. Several strands of lightning were twisted together to form a A trident boiling with thunder and lightning.
"Since when did I, Jiang Shenyi, have a bow and arrow? I should use thunder and spears to deal with the enemy. I will pierce such a despicable person with my own hands!"
Having said this, he smiled softly and said in a low voice: "Junior brother has been busy recently, and there have been more opportunities to fight. It feels really good. I haven't had a hearty battle for a long time, so it's my turn today, right?" "
As he spoke, the Gang Qi wrapped around Jiang Shenyi's body, and the sky thunder mixed into the Gang Qi, forming a bright blue sky. The Gang Qi wrapped around the Thunder Halberd. The Thunder Halberd suddenly stretched out, and the lightning became stronger. His body The form was wrapped in lightning, and it was no longer possible to tell which was the human form and which was the thunder and lightning.
Feng Zhilie had no choice but to withdraw from the bow, regained the spirit of the girl, and shouted: "Hey, what are you going to do? Don't mess around? The demon bone has been refined by him for many years, and it is no worse than the living demon. The defense is comprehensive It's even worse, why do young people love to be heroes so much? There is obviously a simple way."
"Have a rest, old man." Jiang Shenyi gritted his teeth and said with a smile, "It's no longer your time now. Just say a few words to recuperate your spirits. When I force out the secret of immortality from this thing, you might still be able to It can live a long life. Leave it to me here."
He raised his head and thrust his trident towards the sky, as if to attract thunder and lightning from the sky:
"One hundred thousand thunder!"
On the other side, the injured Highness walked quietly through the forest.
The arrow just shot not only destroyed the Bone Cart, but also grazed His Highness's body, causing him some injuries, but the injury was not serious and his spirit was completely preserved. As a spiritual officer with the inheritance of unique skills, he is actually capable of fighting. It is even said that he has quite strong power. If he fights side by side with Shang Qing, it will be enough to change the local balance of power.
But His Highness did not join the battle group, but immediately left the battlefield. This was not because he was timid, but because this was the arrangement.
Today's battlefield is not the raising of troops on a whim, but a planned military plan. Everyone performs his or her duties, and part of the deployment is when and how his forces will be deployed on the battlefield.
Yes, he not only has his own strength, he also holds a part of the new force in his hands. It is the strength he brought to Yunzhou from Kungang, and it is also the strength he transferred from their headquarters after experiencing failure in Kungang. Or is it? A black armor army.
It is precisely because of this Xuanjia army that Shangqing will more unscrupulously mobilize the cannon fodder under the ancient battlefield to siege the city, and throw the bones of these cannon fodder at will.
Because the Xuanjia Army is the most important reserve force, it is the force that can make the final decision in the later stages of the battle, and the skeletons on the battlefield in front are just consumables. And that Xuanjia Army was waiting in a valley in Lingzhou near Yunzhou, waiting for His Highness's remaining Xuanshui Order to move the world and move them to the battlefield.
At that time, their two deepest buried cards are revealed at the same time. One is the demon bone that is ten times stronger than the ferocious beast and can crush the city wall with its absolute power. The other is the Xuanjia army that then fully occupied the city and took over the city's affairs. Only with the cooperation of the two can this city be defeated.
But when Jiang Shenyi fell from the sky and shot through the Bone Chariot, and when the Bailing Cannon was destroyed by the sword light cannon on the city, the battle situation was completely different from what was planned before.
At that time, unlike Shangqing who was killed physically, His Highness had the opportunity to activate the Xuanshui Order and lead the Xuanjia Army to the battlefield. If the Xuanjia army appears out of thin air and can instantly counterattack with the help of Xuanjia's fighting spirit, even if they don't use the Demonic Bones, they will still be able to defeat one in a thousand. No matter how powerful Jiang Shenyi is, the most he can do is escape in embarrassment.
But the person who made the decision at that time was His Highness. At that moment, he had already realized:
Yes, but not necessary.
The city wall has not fallen down, and there are no flaws in the city's defense. With the formation suppressed by the sky above the city, no outside spiritual officials can enter the city. The Xuanjia Army can forcefully attack the city from the front, but it is impossible to win quickly and can only use traditional siege methods to advance.
However, do you have that much time?
Zhaocheng is not an isolated city, it just became an isolated city temporarily because of the arrival of the devil's cave. The city is the emptiest now, but as soon as the message is sent out, support from other places in Yunzhou will arrive immediately. Not to mention the army, as long as one or two patrol swordsmen come, the army will not be able to enter the city gate. When the time comes that Yunzhou is trapped and covered with land, and there are people from Marquis Gao Yuan in all directions, isn't it just a piece of cake?
Although they only planned to steal the city at the beginning, they did not plan to attack by force, and they had no intention of occupying the city for a long time. Instead, they wanted to take advantage of occupying the city to do a major event with far-reaching consequences and withdraw immediately. But the premise is to occupy the city stably for a period of time and truly hold the city in your hands.
But now, the plan has been thwarted again and again, and there is no hope anymore, so what are you going to do with all your might?
As a young man who has learned a lot from his mistakes, His Highness is no longer interested in making a comeback.
He almost immediately decided not to send the Xuanjia Army in, and he quickly left the battlefield.
As for Shang Qing - he is already dead, why do you care about him?
While fleeing in the forest, His Highness turned back and saw the demon skeleton rising from a distance, almost blocking the morning sun. He couldn't help but shook his head, feeling it was a waste, but then he was relieved - it was the spiritual servant that Shangqing had trained himself, and no one could control it except him, so there was no need to save it, let it be as beautiful as Shangqing. The curtain call.
As for His Highness himself, there is more to do. He also has a big plan in Yunzhou, which is related to the life and death of their great Wei Dynasty, so as not to waste too much time on a mere small battlefield.
After all, he was just passing through, wasn't he?
I ran for an unknown amount of time in one breath. When I returned to the capital, I couldn't see Zhaocheng anymore. I could only see the top of the skull's head, with lightning flashing around it. At first glance, it was all blue. It was obvious that the battle was very fierce.
It seems that the demon bone has contained the power of the surprise attack. He is safe here.
So……
"Xuan Shui Order!"
The space twisted, and the teleportation vortex reappeared.
However, this vortex is not big, only as high as a person, just big enough for him to get into. This is not the limit of Xuanshui Order, but the chosen code. If everything is in order, if he wants to pass the large army, he will open a larger and wider exit, and only open a small exit, which means that he does not want the army to come over, but he wants to pass by.
Now that he was defeated again, the route to Zhaocheng was cut off. It was impossible to go north alone from here. Instead, he had to join the Xuanjia Army and decide on the next plan.
"Um?"
Suddenly someone in the sky let out a soft cry.
His Highness turned around and saw a strange car rushing toward him in the direction of the rising sun. The early morning sun was already dazzling, and he couldn't see clearly what kind of car it was. He only felt that the car body was like a monster, and he could vaguely see someone in the car, as if he was coming covered with light.
"This vortex... looks a bit familiar."
The other person's voice sounded very young, and it was also a voice he had never heard before.
It stands to reason that there is no one in the wilderness here, and if others see the Xuanshui Order teleportation and expose his secret, they should kill him and silence him. Especially this is a young man. Although he comes from a strange place, his strength should not be too strong. Then Your Highness should be able to cut through the mess quickly by striking preemptively.
However……
For some reason, he panicked and felt something bad.
So he followed his inner feelings and did not take action. Instead, he ducked down and got into the vortex. The next moment, he only needed to put away the Xuanshui Order to break the connection with the space hundreds of miles away. He and the army were safe.
However, it's a little late.
"Ah, it's a turtle bandit!"
With a roll call, a sword appeared in the young man's hand, and his momentum changed.
This momentum seems familiar? !
Illusion?
"Swordsmanship - Comeback!"
Countless loess, like a torrent, followed the direction of the sword and rolled into the vortex!
His Highness turned around and saw the overwhelming earthy color——
That's it again!
"Brother Shen!"
"Um!"
When Shen Changqing walks on the road, whenever he meets someone he knows, he will say hello or nod to each other.
But no matter who it is.
There was no unnecessary expression on everyone's face, as if they were indifferent to everything.
To this.
Shen Changqing has become accustomed to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, an organization that maintains the stability of the Qin Dynasty. Its main responsibility is to kill monsters and monsters. Of course, there are also some other side jobs.
It can be said.
Everyone in the Demon Suppression Division has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is used to seeing life and death, he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but he got used to it over time.
The Demon-Suppressing Division is huge.
Those who can stay in the Demon Suppressing Division are all powerful masters, or those who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppressor Division is divided into two professions, one is the Guardian Envoy and the other is the Demon Slayer.
Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Department starts from the lowest level as a demon slayer.
Then he will be promoted step by step, and he is expected to eventually become a guardian envoy.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level among the demon slayers.
Possessing the memory of a previous life.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of a loft.
Unlike other places in the Demon Suppressing Division that were full of chills, the attic here seemed to stand out from the crowd, showing a different kind of tranquility in the bloody Demon Suppressing Division.
At this time, the attic door was open, and occasionally people came in and out.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment before stepping in.
Enter the attic.
The environment changes in vain.
The fragrance of ink mixed with the faint smell of blood hit his face, making him frown instinctively, but then relaxed it quickly.
There is almost no way to cleanse away the smell of blood on everyone in the Demon-Suppressing Division.
