South of the Seventh Mountain City.
Each of the thirty-six front mountains has a high platform to cast formations to observe the southern mountains and send messages with beacon smoke.
The first beast wave destroyed three front mountains.
Now there are twelve more places where beacon smoke is rising.
This is also where the smoke of war breaks out.
The front mountain has fallen, the formation has been washed away, and the high platform has been destroyed. Only some people who stayed behind are still struggling to hold on.
The team that followed the soldiers of the Seventh Army and came here was the first in the sequence and was named "Zi Mo".
The leader is the contemporary head of the Qujiang Luo family.
The remaining ten people are all members of the Luo family.
At this moment, they were following the defenders originally stationed in the high platform formation on the front mountain, retreating quickly with extremely fast steps.
The "Zi Mo" team doesn't seem to have a well-organized lineup.
Although they all wore the military's standard armor, most of them used swords instead of the military's standard long knives, and they couldn't keep up in the military formation.
The White Ape is also in this team, but it is covered with Fuhu Vajra Armor, which makes it even more out of place.
But Fuhu Vajra Armor is the masterpiece of Qujiang Luo's skill in weapon refining.
With Bai Yuan's current level of cultivation, it would be difficult to break through anything below the level of a cast tripod.
This is much stronger than the armor of ordinary soldiers.
"The armor in this army is also quite impressive."
The Luo family's majors were relatively high in cultivation, and they still had some strength left during the retreat.
He lowered his head and glanced at the armor he was wearing, and thought to himself: "Although the weapon refining technique is rough, the weapon refining method is extremely novel."
This is the standard armor in the army. In this seventh mountain alone, there are more than 12,000 people, which means more than 12,000 sets of armor.
The Twenty-Four Mountain Defense Line currently gathers at least 400,000 troops.
In particular, the number one mountain where King Zhenyang is personally in charge currently has more than 100,000 people.
The Daqian Dynasty had a vast territory and was guarded by armies from all sides. The soldiers and horses were strong and a large amount of armor was produced every year.
This method of armor manufacturing has a huge output, so it is inevitably rough.
But the manufacturing method of the armor, the operation of the formation, the carving of the patterns, and the forging of the materials are all excellent.
Even with Qujiang Luo's weapon refining methods, it would be difficult to create such armor.
Of course, what's more important is that the materials for making this armor are strictly controlled by the Daqian court.
"Much more useful than my robe."
The head of the Luo family was thinking this way, and at this moment he was also wearing military armor.
But he couldn't help but glance at Bai You, whose armor style was completely different and incompatible with the military officers.
In terms of armor in the entire Qujiang Luo clan, the most outstanding one is the Fuhu Vajra Armor.
However, the number of Fuhu Vajra Armor is very small.
When placed in the army, it is better than ordinary armor.
But compared to the armor worn by the deputy commander, it was slightly taller.
As for the armor of Commander Yuan Li, it belongs to the upper-class magical weapon level.
This set of armor is composed of a total of thirteen parts. Each part is a high-quality magic weapon. The runes in it interact with each other to generate formations.
The head of the Luo family is thinking that even if he does get the casting materials, he may not be able to make a set even if he spends all the Qujiang Luo family at present!
As he thought about it, he glanced back. Looking at the mountain peak, ferocious birds and beasts gradually appeared, and he couldn't help but look solemnly.
There are still thirty elite soldiers left there for the rearguard!
Now that the monster has climbed this mountain, it symbolizes that the first line of defense has been completely lost!
Not only that, but on the left and right sides, beacon smoke ignited and its colors changed, making it clear that it could no longer be defended.
"Speed up the pace!"
The leader of this group of people is named Chu Hao. He is about forty years old and is on the fourth level of Taoism.
He himself built the Lower Dantian Taoist platform and the Middle Dantian Taoist platform.
Relying on years of accumulation of military achievements, in exchange for treasures, the Golden Spirit Taoist Platform and the Wood Spirit Taoist Platform were cast.
Logically speaking, the Five Elements Taoist Platform can be piled up using spiritual objects in the world.
However, he came from a humble background and had no backing, so he was unable to complete the fifth Taoist platform.
But having guarded the border for many years, he was obviously very experienced.
Therefore, this group of people, led by him, evacuated backwards.
According to the normal method, they should evacuate immediately to both sides to jointly guard the other "front mountain high platforms".
But the formations on the two high platforms on the left and right have been lost.
Therefore, they could only retreat along the way they came, and return to the Seventh Mountain City before the beast tide approached.
"The tide of beasts is coming very fast, and the thirty brothers responsible for cutting off the rear cannot stop it for even a quarter of an hour."
Chu Hao looked solemn and said: "Abandon the heavy objects and march lightly. We can't delay it any longer."
The so-called defeat is like falling like a mountain. If they all evacuate, they will be gradually swallowed up by the tide of beasts behind them.
So someone needs to take the lead.
The soldiers who are cut off from the rear are in a certain death situation.
He looked at Xuantian Guan's group and sighed in his heart, thinking that Xuantian Guan's reinforcements could relieve the pressure.
Unexpectedly, only this small group of people came.
And none of them had experienced battle, so he could only save these twelve people.
"Are all the twelve people who were traveling with me this morning dead?" At this moment, Right Envoy Bai asked in a low voice.
"should be."
The head of the Luo family looked strange when he said this.
The twelve soldiers accompanying them were not as kind as Feng Cheng's group.
There was almost a conflict and a fight on the road.
Fortunately, he, a practitioner at the seventh level of Daoji Realm, calmed the situation.
But these soldiers who almost took action this morning chose to cut off the rear and are now buried in the beast wave, leaving them with a chance to evacuate.
The head of the Luo family glanced around and found that the ten clansmen beside him all had complicated expressions.
"You came with Old Zhou and took on this round of duty. You were supposed to stay with Old Zhou." At this moment, a young soldier sneered and said, "Master Chu, I miss you guys who have just arrived and are mysterious." The people from Tianguan brought you out to save your lives."
"Shut up!"
Chu Hao shouted: "If you have the time to spare, save some energy, and hurry up! There are more than thirty brothers who are here to cut off the queen for us. We are not letting you talk nonsense..."
Everyone quickly retreated, and during the process they met some soldiers who were also retreating towards the Seventh Mountain City.
But there were already some scattered birds and beasts, and they were also catching up.
The soldiers in the rear were probably all destroyed at this moment, and they were the first to block the beast tide.
But some of the scattered monsters who escaped from the beast tide were good at running and flying.
For example, falcons, cheetahs, etc. gradually appeared behind them.
"Um?"
The head of the Luo family suddenly paused and looked to the left.
Although the man was wearing military armor, the sword in his hand bore the mark of the Yan family, and the token hanging on his waist was Xuantian Guan's token.
This is a member of the Yan family!
I glanced over again, but there were only three or two people there.
There are twelve people in the complete team. Where are the others?
He stepped forward, quickly came to the man's side, and shouted: "Where are the others?"
The man was startled and turned around, only to realize that it was the head of the Luo family in Qujiang. He immediately stopped and bowed: "Master Luo, we have already dispersed."
"Which team are you on?"
"Team 9, Shenhou."
"The team led by Yan Jing?"
"Exactly."
"Where are the others?"
"The high platform in front of the mountain where we are waiting has been destroyed in the first wave of beasts, so there is no protection. We can only observe the movements of Nanshan from the nearest hillside."
This man spoke very quickly and said quickly: "I originally wanted to withdraw to the high platform on the right and guard together, but saw that Fengyan was lost, so I retreated... but I was caught up."
The head of the Luo family immediately understood.
Where they went, there was a high platform formation on the front mountain, and there were more than a hundred people guarding it.
Now they are fleeing for their lives and retreating, but more than thirty people are still left behind.
But the "Shen Monkey Team" only has about twenty people in total.
Logically speaking, one can only retreat as hard as possible.
But I heard this man whisper: "My uncle Yan Jing has left Duan Hou, as well as Feng Cheng, Li Qi, Yan Jiu and others, a total of nine people..."
"oh?"
The head of the Luo family frowned slightly.
Chu Hao, who was in the front, seemed to notice that someone was falling behind, turned around and shouted: "What are you doing? You're not retreating?"
But at this moment, I saw a cheetah running behind me.
Behind the cheetah, smoke and dust were also billowing.
Further away, there are many shadows of birds and animals.
"Walk!"
The head of the Luo family carried the Yan family member and shouted: "Go back to the Seventh Mountain City."
When he said this, he found Bai Youshi roaring angrily, wearing Fuhu Diamond Armor, and ran towards the cheetah.
"Damn it! There's just such a little monster chasing after me. If I don't kill you, I can't swallow this breath!"
The white ape instantly grew in size and was three to five feet tall. It was wearing heavy armor and was extremely powerful. He was caught immediately.
The cheetah was crushed into pulp by its palm.
But I saw birds in the sky, and they were killed.
When the white ape strangled the bird to death, he discovered that more monsters and monsters had been killed.
It seemed to be red-eyed, and instead of trying to escape, it killed the dozen or so evil beasts in the lead.
But after such a delay, they were already surrounded by a tide of beasts.
"..."
The head of the Luo family twitched at the corner of his eye and said secretly: "This is not Bai Youshi's style..."
Sure enough, the next moment, the voice of the white ape was heard.
"Lao Luo! Save me!"
"..."
The head of the Luo family reached out and took out the formation flag.
Then the Luo family members also looked solemn and followed the Luo family leader to rescue the white ape.
But the tide of beasts is rolling, and there are still a large number of people coming from behind.
They walked in the opposite direction, and seemed to be submerged in the billowing dust and smoke.
"oops?"
The Yan family member showed a look of horror and shouted loudly: "Go and save them!"
"Asshole!"
Chu Hao gritted his teeth and immediately shouted: "All retreat! Anyone who dares to leave will be punished for disobeying military orders!"
He immediately walked forward and couldn't help but sigh.
He was quite angry at first, feeling that Xuantian Guan and his group were completely irrational and were dying in vain. This was really a waste of the life that more than thirty of his brothers had sacrificed for their lives.
But the next moment, he vaguely understood something, and thought to himself: "Xuan Tian Guan and this group of people are also trying to cut us off."
With this thought in mind, he directly picked up a Xuantian Temple disciple who could barely run and moved forward with all his strength.
In the past, he would have looked down upon this kind of "trash" at all.
But now, his mood is a little complicated.
——
at the same time.
Lu Wan was wearing armor and holding the Dust-breaking Sword.
Everything on his body is a top-notch magic weapon!
Commander Yuan Li, on the other hand, put on the armor of a deputy commander, carrying a long sword at his waist and holding a long halberd.
"Set off!"
Both of them headed south.
But one turned to the left and the other to the right, each going in one direction, searching for traces of the great Zhuding Demon.
Lu Wan picked an imaginary flower and walked south very fast, as if he was galloping.
The direction he was going was to the head of the Luo family in Qujiang.
After running for a long time, a group of broken troops came forward.
Only when they got closer did someone recognize it.
"Venerable Lu!"
The man shouted loudly, and looked at Lu Wan, who was wearing high-quality magical weapons and armor, and cried with joy.
Chu Haoben stepped forward and shouted: "Are you desperate? There is a tide of beasts behind you, go back quickly!"
But when he saw Lu Wan wearing the armor of a great commander, he couldn't help but be stunned.
But Lu Wan didn't look at him. His eyes fell on the Yan family members and asked, "What's going on?"
The disciple quickly recounted all the previous events.
Chu Hao said anxiously: "Get back quickly, what are you talking about standing here?"
"..."
Lu Wan frowned, looked at him, and asked, "So, the Zishu team followed you to withdraw?"
Hearing the accusation in Lu Wan's voice, a soldier immediately shouted loudly: "That white ape suddenly went crazy, was moved by the demonic energy, and rushed into the beast... They are asking for their own death! "
"Shut up!"
Chu Hao took a deep breath and said: "The head of the Luo family led ten Luo family members to go to the rescue, but together with the white ape, they were involved in the tide of beasts and were killed."
Lu Wanping said calmly: "You just look at it like this?"
Chu Hao didn't speak, but he heard the soldier say angrily: "They really want to die, do we have to die together?"
Bang!
Chu Hao kicked him over, and then said to Lu Wan: "We should withdraw. This is a military order."
"In normal times, even if they come back, they are disobeying military orders and should be beheaded to establish military discipline!"
"Now that they are dying in the beast tide, they are still serving Daqian. We are not embarrassed. I just say that they followed my order to carry out the task of cutting off the queen, fought bravely and died in the beast tide."
He paused and whispered: "In this case, at least I can still give you a pension."
It could be heard that there was no sarcasm in Chu Hao's voice, only a little sadness.
"knew."
Lu Wan moved forward.
"What are you going to do?"
Chu Hao shouted loudly.
He already knew that this young man was the person in charge of Xuantianguan's reinforcements.
Although his cultivation level is not high, his status is obviously noble.
Lu Wan here is equivalent to Xuantian Temple!
He couldn't watch Lu Wan die, so he immediately took action to capture him.
But the next moment, he saw Lu Wan's energy flowing out of him.
Chu Hao groaned and fell two steps.
The rest of the soldiers faced each other with swords and glared angrily.
"I'm here to stop you this time, you go back to the Seventh Mountain City first!"
"With your level of Daoji, how can you cut off the rear in the face of the beast tide? Don't think too highly of yourself. You are the envoy of Xuantian Temple. Even if the Seventh Mountain City is destroyed, the general will protect your life. You have a great future. Don't think too hard... …”
"The department you belong to, the deputy commander is Chu Zhou?"
Lu Wan suddenly spoke, laughed, and said, "That guy is pretty good, and the soldiers he brought out are also pretty good! Just retreat!"
Chu Hao wanted to persuade him, but his soldiers picked him up and started dragging him away.
"Survive first, don't worry about anything else." The soldier said angrily: "I'm going to die, brother, why are you stopping me?"
"In this situation, even if Xuantian Guan comes to punish us, it's none of our business!" Another soldier said again.
"Let's go! The beast tide is coming!"
"..."
Chu Hao's expression changed, and he finally turned around and looked at the three disciples surnamed Yan.
The three people were frightened and their faces were pale, but after glancing around, they remembered the previous warning of the family leader.
Taking a deep breath, all three of them saluted Chu Hao.
"Thank you Master Chu for escorting me all the way. My three brothers will be your guardians!"
"No need!"
Lu Wan's voice came, saying: "Go back to the Seventh Mountain City, notify Yan Zhen, and prepare to treat the wounded soldiers..."
When his voice came, it attracted everyone's attention.
But he was shocked to find that Lu Wan's figure was already a thousand steps away.
But the sound is in my ears.
Thousands of steps away, a large number of ferocious birds and beasts were approaching. The first to come were at least over a hundred.
But he saw Lu Wan raise his sword!
There are hundreds of monsters, and more than six are in the Taoist realm.
There will be an endless stream of beasts that follow, driving a rolling wave.
Even if Daoji is at its peak, he cannot withstand it and can only retreat. Only by casting a tripod can he retreat safely.
Seeing that the tide of beasts was about to drown Lu Wan, Chu Hao could only curse in his heart and leave.
But before he could look away, he was completely stunned.
I saw Venerable Lu from Xuantian Temple sweeping across with one sword!
This sword is sharp and sharp!
The sword energy was flowing freely and flew away in an instant!
However, as soon as the sword energy was released, it suddenly dispersed.
A condensed sword energy turned into more than a hundred light spots.
In an instant, the stars were dazzling, even brighter than the setting sun!
Even monsters comparable to Daoji were instantly penetrated by the sword energy!
With just one sword, he killed hundreds of monsters in the lead!
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
There was a look of disbelief in Chu Hao's eyes, and he felt a little dry.
However, the next moment, he heard the sound of swallowing from beside him.
"I heard that this person just built a Taoist platform?"
"Master Chu, aren't you also in the Taoist realm? And you have more than one Taoist platform?"
"..."
The corners of Chu Hao's eyes twitched, and he thought to himself: "Is this the fucking Dao Ji Realm?"
His original sense of nervousness and urgency was now relieved.
This Venerable Lu was so powerful that he could kill hundreds of monsters with just one person and one sword.
This first wave of beasts came so fast that it surpassed other birds and beasts, and was considered an elite.
Even the peak Daoji may not be able to withstand it!
It is indeed the true biography of Xuantian Temple!
After he broke it off, I couldn't help but feel a little more relaxed.
Even Chu Hao began to hesitate, should he step forward to help?
But the next moment, the voice of Venerable Lu was heard from the front.
"What are you doing standing still? Withdraw to the Seventh Mountain City and prepare to meet the following soldiers..."
"yes!"
Chu Hao responded loudly and led everyone to retreat.
But this time, the three Yan clan members did not say much and followed Chu Hao and fled quickly.
Only Lu Wan was left, one man and one sword, looking at the many ferocious birds and beasts rolling in front of him, his eyes slightly focused.
"There's something wrong with the number of beasts."
Grandma Sanzu said: "You kill along the left side first!"
