"The enemy is outside the canyon, more than 500 steps away from us. No wonder we didn't discover it in advance."
Li Shu, who was walking in the air, blasted away two arrows with one palm, and fixed his eyes on the continuous fire in the distance. Such a large army made the elders of the Symphony Sect, who had experienced hundreds of battles, take a breath of cold air.
"Our whereabouts have been exposed. We should be in Metallurgical City. Is it the Blacksmith Guild? Impossible. This will not do them any good."
Xiao Momomaru's mind was racing, trying to find out which link had gone wrong, but the rain of arrows coming from the sky didn't even intend to give her time to think. The soft sword at her waist kept waving, blocking it again and again. attack.
"This is not an option. The terrain of the canyon is too narrow. We must break through, otherwise we will only be eaten alive."
Although the arrow rain cannot bring a substantial threat to the small team for the time being, the continuous attacks have shown that the opponent is well prepared. Even with Li Mu's strength, it is impossible for them to be invincible under such a dense offensive. Keep going without stopping.
"To be able to maintain such a high-intensity arrow array coverage at such a long distance, the enemy must be at least a complete legion, and it must have used siege equipment, and it is very likely that it is also equipped with energy stone technology."
Li Mu forced himself to calm down and quickly analyzed the battle situation. Now the team was blocked at the exit of the canyon and could not move.
Except for himself and Li Shu, the other three people did not have the ability to fly. If they wanted to rush out surrounded by an entire army, they could only use powerful long-distance attacks to force the enemy to stop the rain of arrows.
"And you can't use Xiaopi. This is a trump card that can only be revealed at the last moment of life and death. Once used, it means that your identity is completely exposed, and the latent mission is basically a failure."
The overwhelming rain of arrows showed no sign of stopping. The small team could not imagine what kind of army they were facing, with such a large reserve of weapons and manpower.
And Li Mu also saw for the first time how terrifying the Dong Penglai army fighting on the mainland was. During the defense battle of Qinglan City, he only faced the attack of the Penglai fleet.
Although it also has sharp weapons such as airborne tanks, after all, it is a battle across the ocean, and many large-scale weapons cannot be transported by warships, so they will not appear in the end.
But today's situation is completely different. Relying on the solid city, Dong Penglai's energy stone weapons will play a greater role. On the contrary, the Cangyun Empire's expeditionary force has become the one to land across the ocean. It is conceivable that this The civil war will be far more difficult than it was back then.
"Elder Li, it seems that the two of us need to attack with all our strength. We will open a gap in the air, cover the others' breakout, and then deal with the enemy to find an opportunity to escape."
The severe situation forced Li Mu to choose tactics that were not so safe. Being in the enemy's territory, the enemy was powerful, there was an extreme lack of intelligence, and his identity could not be revealed. Almost all the team faced were unfavorable conditions.
Under such circumstances, it would be a very unwise choice to confront a Dong Penglai army head-on. Breaking out and escaping would be the best option.
"I understand, that's all. I'll obey your command."
Li Shu agreed simply. Finally, at Xiao Taomaru's suggestion, the team decided to split into two groups, break through from the east side, quickly enter a vast forest, and then regroup at a waterfall thirty miles away.
Now that the battle plan was in place, everyone did not hesitate at all. They saw Li Mu and Li Shu rising into the sky. Their majestic power suddenly erupted, and the palm shadows and hot sword energy rushed towards the arrows.
"It's really a big fish. There are actually two monks in the Infinite Realm. They are assaulting the battalion and setting up energy artillery. Let me shoot these two people down."
There was an excited look on the face of the white-bearded general. Masters of the Infinite Realm were high-ranking beings everywhere. In Dong Penglai's military system, they were at the level of a general or a captain of a battleship.
An anonymous report actually allowed him to catch an enemy of this level and report him to Penglai City. It was a great achievement. It might even be publicized as a heroic deed, and it would also be a great achievement to be awarded an official title. Probabilistic event.
Under the command of the general, ten Dong Penglai soldiers walked out of the queue. They all carried a cylindrical weapon on their shoulders. As blue light emerged, their entire body was covered with complicated lines.
Targeting Li Mu and Li Shu who were showing off their skills in the air, ten blue energy light cannons were suddenly fired, lighting up half of the sky instantly.
"No, it's an energy cannon!"
Li Mu, who had participated in the defense battle of Qinglan City, was naturally familiar with this blue color. The Kongqi chariot fired similar energy shells to destroy the Cangyun Empire's defense line.
Although he was already a master of the Infinite Realm who could fly in the air, if he was hit in the front by such an energy shell, he would definitely be seriously injured. After warning his companions loudly, Li Mu turned his wrist and a fire phoenix appeared in the air.
Dragging its flaming tail feathers and letting out a loud cry, the dazzling phoenix swept past and directly detonated all eight energy shells. However, two of them passed through Li Mu's defense net and went straight to Li Shu, who was trying to resist the rain of arrows. .
As an elder of the Symphony Sect, Li Shu did not participate in the defense battle with the Penglai fleet. Although she later heard some information about energy stone technology, she did not pay enough attention to this blue artillery. .
Although Li Mu's reminder made her wary, but with her perfect cultivation of the Infinite Realm, she only used her mind to make a palm shadow at will, hoping to intercept the two cannonball attacks.
But the explosive energy emitted by the two immediately shocked her. Although the palm shadow detonated the energy shell in advance, because the distance was too close, the violent aftermath instantly knocked Li Shu upside down.
Without the main interception force in the air, Li Mu suddenly doubled his pressure. He kept swinging the Star Meteor Sword, expanding the defense radius to the extreme. At this time, the ground battle had also begun.
Soldiers wearing Dong Peng Lai armor swarmed in and surrounded Xiao Taomaru, Bai Jingting and others. Although there was a big gap in strength, there were so many people that it was difficult for the three of them to break through.
Among the three of them, only Bai Jingting had been on the battlefield seriously and could still exert his full strength in the face of the enemy. Xiao Tao Wan and Jin Ding were inevitably a little helpless when they saw such a battle.
The team's advance was slow, and Li Mu in the air felt that most of the pure Yang energy in his body had been consumed. He stuffed a large amount of pills into his mouth before barely regaining consciousness.
"Damn it, we're still a little short of that. Just go fifty steps further and you'll be able to enter the forest."
Seeing that his teammates were in trouble and Elder Li Shu was still uncertain about his life or death, a hint of cruelty flashed in Li Mu's eyes. He looked at the enemy formation in the distance and finally made up his mind.
