A river of blood flowed outside Prince Wu's Mansion, and corpses were piled randomly on the road.
Most of the people who were temporarily summoned by Chen Shenghai were ordinary people serving in corvee.
The remaining martial arts forces that were recruited initially thought it was just an ordinary operation, so the ones sent over were all martial artists with low levels of cultivation.
So much so that when such a team faced these Wei soldiers who were armed to the teeth, it was basically a one-sided massacre.
"Pfft!"
After cutting off the last head around him, Ma Chuanping and his brothers excitedly began to report their military merits.
When they, Wei soldiers, want to report military merit, they don't just need to hold the head, but they need proof from others.
And in order to avoid disputes, the head will be displayed to the public for three days. If no one raises any objection, the credit will be attributed to him.
If it is later discovered that he is falsely claiming military merit, the team or team he belongs to will be punished, and the person who reported it will also be rewarded.
In addition to these means, their Wei Wu soldiers also have a supervising team.
The people who become the supervising team are all highly cultivated, they have sharp ears and eyes, and have strong powers of observation.
When the battle begins, these supervising teams will hold pens to record. For example, during the battle, who is in which position, and who can obtain roughly what kind of military exploits. They will be recorded one by one for subsequent verification.
In addition to counting military merits, this supervising team will also kill deserters.
In addition to many positive incentives, the rules set by Wu Qi also set many strict punishments.
The most stringent one is that once the war begins, soldiers who desert or disobey orders will be killed without mercy.
Ma Chuanping noticed that this was their first real battle, and some people felt timid, which affected their formation and resulted in a rout.
These comrades were all ordered to "rectify the law on the spot" by the supervising team, and the rules set by Wu Qi were strictly implemented.
At this time, the battle was over, and everyone was immersed in the joy of sharing the victory.
No one has sympathy for these people.
At the entrance of Prince Wu's Mansion.
Wu Qi, who had won the first battle, led his men over from among the Wei soldiers with a happy face.
He saw that Zhao Hongming's exquisite armor was stained with blood, and the guards behind him were all holding bloody heads in their hands, and he probably guessed that Zhao Hongming had secretly eliminated Chen Shenghai and others.
However, His Highness's appearance showed no injuries, and he was suddenly shocked.
He had a vague guess in his mind that His Highness's martial arts cultivation had become more advanced.
Immediately Wu Qi put away his pride, walked up to Zhao Hongming, knelt down on one knee and said: "The end will come later, I hope His Highness will punish you."
Zhao Hongming stood under the war drum, glanced at him with lowered eyes and said: "General Wu has done a good job. With this mighty army, I will be able to stand upright in Ying County from now on, and I will no longer be like before." So tied up."
Wu Qi's eyelids twitched without trace.
'Your Highness, if your strength is revealed, who can be your opponent in this county? '
However, he also knows in his heart that our Highness is cautious and suspicious by nature and does not like to show off himself.
In addition, his status is relatively special, which easily attracts the attention of those top powerful figures.
As long as his cultivation level has not reached a high enough level, His Highness should not reveal his cultivation level to the world.
But can it really be done?
Wu Qi has been practicing for so many years, but he knows how difficult this martial arts training is.
Not to mention the Creation Realm, the Martial Dan Realm was somewhat beyond his reach.
His Highness could reach such a level at this age. To be honest, he still couldn't figure out how His Highness practiced.
Wu Qi calmed down and said, "Being humble and fearful is the result of His Highness King Wu's foresight."
Zhao Hongming smiled and said: "General Wu, there is no need to say this kind of politeness. Now that we have this Wei soldier in the world, the rules of the battlefield may change in the future. You are the one who deserves the most credit, so you should For the military strategist Wu Zi."
After a martial artist undergoes professional training, his killing efficiency is simply two-dimensional compared to that of those martial arts forces.
And this is just the beginning.
Zhao Hongming knew that this was not the upper limit of the number of people this Wei soldiers could kill.
If their cultivation level is further improved, or their number is expanded, their killing potential can be increased exponentially, instead of being as simple as one plus one equals two.
He even vaguely looked forward to what it would be like to form a Wei soldiers composed entirely of innate warriors in the future.
But that’s all for another day.
Zhao Hongming shouted: "Chang Wei!"
"The humble position is here!"
Chang Wubing, who was not far away, heard Zhao Hongming's call and hurried over.
After these days of hard training, he is now at the eighth level of Tongqiao, and is only one step away from the ninth level of Tongqiao.
Zhao Hongming threw a bronze medal and said: "Let the Mingjiao side also start taking action. I want to capture Chenjiazhuang today. In addition, there are more than fifty martial arts forces who have taken refuge in Chen Shenghai and those from the Wang family. You and General Wu should deal with it together in the next period of time. From now on, Ying County will only have the Mingjiao martial arts force."
Chang Wubing and Wu Qi looked at each other.
The formation of Wei Wuzu was secretly established with the help of the Mingjiao's cover-up.
The fact that 'Wei Wuji' belongs to King Wu's camp has long been tacitly understood in the hearts of the core members of the Mingjiao.
Now that Chen Shenghai and others have been taken down, His Highness King Wu is no longer planning to cover up this relationship.
The two people hurriedly clasped their hands and agreed in unison: "Yes."
Buzz!
At this moment, not far away from the Wang Family Courtyard, a light array shot into the sky.
Wu Qi and others could feel the ground shaking slightly while standing at the door of Prince Wu's Mansion.
There were some changes in the Wang family.
Zhao Hongming casually ordered: "All the personal guards will follow me."
After saying that, he couldn't wait to rush to the front.
Zhao Hongming felt that both the Wang family and the Shangxian sect were a little bit mysterious, and there seemed to be many secrets hidden in the dark, so it was time to go and investigate.
…
The Wang Family Courtyard.
The old Taoist from the Shangxian Sect stood in the courtyard of the Wang family, quite anxious: "Why is Chen Shenghai not recovered yet? Forget it, let's set up the Heaven Transformation Formation in the Wang family first. Otherwise, the beings inside may be completely alive. ”
Just now, he saw the ragged 'mummy' meditating and adjusting his breath.
Now the existence no longer looked like a mummy, but rather looked like a human being. The skin was no longer dark blue, but had become bulging again.
The nose, which was left with only two hollow holes due to decay, also had a high bulge of tissue, as if it would be reshaped at any time.
The old Taoist dare not wait any longer.
It's so terrible before recovery. If it is fully recovered, is it still possible?
Without further ado, the old Taoist directly activated the Heaven Transformation Formation.
In their previous assumptions, this Heaven Transformation Formation should cover the entire Luling City and even the entire Ying County, creating another fairyland.
But now Chen Shenghai didn't know what was going on, and he couldn't make an accurate judgment on whether it had cut off Wei's national destiny here.
We can only confine the scope of the Heaven Transformation Formation to the Wang Family Courtyard.
The old Taoist who went to the Immortal Sect bit the tip of his tongue, spit out a mouthful of blood essence in the void, and then quickly made a seal with his hands.
The essence and blood quickly outlined a mysterious and complex pattern in the void, and shouted: "Array, start!"
The ground shook slightly.
The pebble particles scattered on the ground began to beat continuously.
There was a crisp buzzing sound.
It's like some kind of precise instrument, suddenly rotating in this world.
A golden curtain of light mixed with blood suddenly rose from the four corners of the Wang Family Courtyard, forming an upside-down bowl shape, trapping the Wang Family Courtyard within it.
"ah!"
Some disciples did not have time to leave and were enveloped by the Heaven Transformation Formation. His body quickly aged, withered, and carbonized, turning into soot and disappearing into the air, which was extremely strange.
When the other disciples saw this scene, they all looked horrified.
The face of the Taoist from the Shangxian Sect was as calm as water: "If you go with it, you will be ordinary, if you go against it, you will be immortal, just invert it in the middle. The great formation of transforming the sky is divided into yin and yang, the yin is death, the yang is life, and if you reverse yin and yang, you will open the immortal heaven."
"You all secretly use the Taoist mental skills taught to you by your master, and follow your master into the battle."
After speaking, the old Taoist from the Shangxian Sect lightly stomped his feet and walked into the Heaven Transformation Formation first.
As soon as he entered the formation, he couldn't help but show his joy.
He found in the formation that the spiritual energy in the void was much richer than outside, and the magic arts in his body were running more smoothly.
The originally pale beard and hair turned into jet black at this moment, and he was in better condition than ever.
The Taoist who went to the Immortal Sect made a move with his bare hands, and a rainbow light flew out from his back and landed steadily in front of him.
"disease!"
The old Taoist master of Shangxian Sect made a sword secret with his hand, and the long sword in front of him swiveled, and a rainbow light burst out to surround him, and then his whole body turned into a flying rainbow and flashed past, flying into the depths of the Wang family compound.
But this process did not last long. After a few breaths, the rainbow light dissipated.
"Is this the power of the Immortal Dao?" The old Taoist from the Shangxian Sect showed an intoxicated look: "The range of this formation is too small, and the amount of Immortal Dao power that can be refined is limited. To meet our expectations, it is still the territory of a county. That’s all.”
The old man held his sword and walked towards the "mummy" man not far away.
At this time, the "mummy" man in the formation showed a puzzled expression: "What's going on? The life I stole..."
Waves of brilliance were emitting from his body, and the swollen skin shrank.
The "mummy" man looked up at the Taoist from the Shangxian Sect: "Is that you?"
The face of the Taoist who went to the Immortal Sect was stagnant. He did not expect that the "mummy" man in front of him could actually be rational.
The old Taoist asked in a deep voice: "Who are you?"
The mummy man looked over expressionlessly, his shrunken gums were only open and closed with purple-black gums: "I am the emperor of the Yin Kingdom, Xin."
The eyes of the old Taoist who went to the Immortal Sect suddenly widened: "It's impossible. It's been three thousand years since Emperor Xin of the Yin Kingdom died. You can't be him."
"Three thousand years have passed?!"
The "mummy" man seemed to be deep in thought, and there was a vague light flickering in his empty eyes: "Then who am I?"
With the "mummy" man as the center, a white cold air spread out to all sides.
Click click click.
There was the sound of the ice breaking.
The old Taoist from Shangxianmen discovered white frost appearing on the ground.
He took a few steps back, and his face suddenly turned gloomy: "No matter who you are, if you fall into the Heaven Transformation Formation, you will become the spiritual essence of this formation. Kill!"
A rainbow flashed.
The old Taoist from Shangxian Sect urged the long sword in his hand, and slashed the neck of the "mummy" man with one sword.
Dang!
The sound of cutting steel came out.
Under the blessing of the Transformation Formation, the "immortal sword" that could cut through fine steel did not cut off the head of the "mummy" man, and did not even leave a trace.
White frosty air surged out from the body of the "mummy" man, covering him up.
An armor made of frost covered the body of the "mummy" man.
"Roar!"
The "mummy" man grabbed an ice pick with his hand and stabbed it towards the chest of the old Taoist at Shangxianmen.
The old Taoist from the Shangxian Sect did not panic at all and pulled off the Taoist robe on his body.
The formation pattern engraved on the Taoist robe emerged and turned into a large golden shield to block the ice pick.
Click!
The ice pick broke inch by inch.
Seeing that he could not break through the golden shield of the Taoist priest at Shangxianmen, the "mummy" man changed his moves and suddenly turned his stabs into fists.
boom!
In a deafening roar, the old Taoist from the Shangxian Sect was blown away.
"Not enough, not enough!"
The man who was "mummy" in the refining formation murmured.
He found that he was in the formation, and his vitality was constantly passing away. If it goes on for a long time, he will inevitably decline until he is defeated.
The "mummy" man's empty eyes stared at the old man of Shangxian Sect, and his expression became serious.
He drew his hand in the air, and an ice hammer appeared out of thin air in his hand.
boom!
The air wave exploded.
The "mummy" man rose into the air and smashed down the hammer from mid-air.
The old Taoist from the Shangxian Sect took out his Taoist robe and held it up with both hands.
A loud bang.
The ground paved with bluestone slabs kept making cracking sounds, and countless slabs shattered and flew apart.
The ground suddenly collapsed ten inches downward, making the old Taoist unsteady.
The "mummy" man in front of him obviously lived in an era when immortality was prosperous and knew many immortal arts.
This Heaven Transformation Formation increased the concentration of spiritual energy in the air, which undoubtedly added a lot of convenience to him.
That being the case.
The old Taoist from the Shangxian Sect made a secret with one hand, and all the ice elephants on the "mummy" man's body cracked.
"What's going on? I can't feel the aura."
The old Taoist didn't talk nonsense to him, and his hands turned into a phantom, constantly changing the spells.
"All the combatants are arrayed in front! Photograph! Refining!"
"ah!"
The "mummy" man let out a shrill scream.
Seeing this, the old Taoist from the Immortal Sect showed a bit of pride, and was about to increase the intensity of refining.
Suddenly, the "mummy" man's chest suddenly cracked open, black light spurted out, and a powerful suction force came from it.
The old Taoist from Shangxian Sect felt that the energy and blood all over his body couldn't help boiling, constantly leaking out from the body surface, being absorbed and swallowed by the black light.
At the same time, his body kept moving towards the "mummy" man.
"you dare!"
The old Taoist rose into the air, and a Bagua Tai Chi pattern condensed out behind him, spinning continuously and glowing with blue-white light.
He made a fist with his hands, leaving behind a series of afterimages.
Then the old man suddenly heard the gesture and patted forward.
The Tai Chi Bagua pattern quickly moved forward, pressing on the "mummy" man.
The "mummy" man was not afraid, he raised his hand and punched him.
boom!
The arm of the "mummy" man was broken inch by inch.
At this moment, a large square seal appeared in his chest, shooting out and hitting the Bagua pattern.
"National destiny?!"
After the appearance of this four-sided seal, the Heaven Transformation Formation suddenly became chaotic, and the figure of the veteran also became unstable.
