Zhou Yanyu set up camp in the crater, protected by Yamazaki. Her soul left her body and walked down the crater, using the high temperature to hone her water soul.
However, Yamazaki's peaceful days did not last long. After the New Year of the 128th year of the Linghai Kingdom, the Great Zhou Imperial Prefect's Office came looking for Yamazaki.
Yamazaki was speechless, he was not afraid of them, and they were no match for him.
But when a fight breaks out, the Eight Immortals will intervene.
Lu Chunyang, Cao Jingxiu, and He Xiangu had been nearby for a long time, but since the cause and effect didn't come, they couldn't take action, so they could only wait patiently.
I heard that these guys were trying to get into trouble, but I didn't know what they were thinking, and they actually came to trouble him.
…
"People in the mountains, I think you have contributed to the war, so you can just go and capture me."
"Master Imperial Master, I don't want to fight with you. If you must fight, please wait for some time until the princess's soul is condensed. It won't be too late for us to fight again."
"No, who knows what tricks you are using."
Grand Master Zhou waved his hand, and hundreds of Yuanshen masters stood in their respective positions and set up a large array of five elements and four elephants.
The number of five elements is used as a small array, the number of five and five is used as a large array, and then the four-image array is formed.
If one small formation cannot kill Yamazaki, use five small formations to stack them.
In order to prevent Yamazaki from escaping, the four-image array was used to rotate the trap, while focusing on one attribute to increase its power.
The four elephants are just right, wood, fire, metal, and water. The four-elephant array is like a huge lid covering the earth.
The earth is soil, and the four images and the earth form a five elements, which forms the power of sealing the sky and locking the earth.
It's hard to escape even if you fly to the sky or escape from the earth.
Coupled with the endless rotation of the formation, it is difficult to escape from being trapped in the formation.
In a group of five, the coordination is simple and difficult to break.
If you want to escape, you can only fight head-on and defeat five five-element formations at once, which is the mana of 25 soul masters after the formations are superimposed.
At the same time, the four elephants are mythical beasts that can destroy evil spirits.
This is aimed at the magic sword in Yamazaki's hand, and Yamazaki, a ghost man.
In addition, these four images also mean the rotation of the four seasons.
This place is also a volcano, and the fire is strong. When the summer is hot, the formation will be most powerful.
Immortals can be burned to death, and ordinary golden immortals have to run away.
…
Yamazaki assessed the situation and helplessly took the hut and sank into the ground.
They couldn't escape, but they could still hide. No matter how powerful this array was, they didn't dare to refine the volcano. The evil karma was enough to kill them with thunder from the sky.
Yamazaki's move made everyone in the formation depressed. It was okay to come out and fight, so why hide.
Although they are Yuanshen masters and do not need to eat or drink, who can stand the sun and rain in the sky for such a long time!
…
For seven days, Yamazaki didn't come out.
The Imperial Master of the Great Zhou Dynasty had no choice but to build a manor nearby, and let people come up to replace him, and the replacement people came down to rest.
This is also a relatively common position for the Five Elements Formation, everyone knows it, and there are enough manpower.
…
They've been wasting their time here, and it's Lu Chunyang's turn to be unhappy. If this continues, how long will it take?
He Xiangu couldn't help but call the mountain god of Liuhuoshan and asked him to report the situation.
The mountain god told the story honestly. Zhou Yanyu was condensing his soul below, while Yamazaki was protecting the law and guiding Gu Ling'er's practice.
Cao Jingxiu asked: "Condensing the soul? How long do you think it will take?"
"This little god doesn't know. I heard that it can take as little as three to five years, and as many as eighty or ninety years."
The three golden immortals were speechless when they heard this, please withdraw.
Sure enough, the doom has not yet come, even if you want to eliminate the demon, it will be difficult to do so.
…
the other side.
The king of Zhou sat in the middle of the army and led troops to sweep through all directions, conquering the cities in the central and eastern parts that did not surrender, and occupying the rich lands with many fields and vast soldiers.
They only sent their generals to lead their troops south, but six ghosts of Da Zhao led their troops to intercept them, blocking the way of the Zhou army's southward march.
The Zhou generals were unable to defeat them and were unable to advance, and many of them were captured.
The King of Zhao sent word that Zhou should release the families of Zhao officers and soldiers.
This made the originally unstable military morale of the Zhao officers and soldiers become entangled again.
They originally wanted to run away, but now they don't have to run away.
King Zhou did not reply and led his army southward to confront Zhao in the Shanghe City area.
When the two kings met, each sent their masters to battle.
There are many masters of Great Zhou Yuanshen, but in one-on-one situations, none of them can be an opponent of one of the six ghosts.
The king of Zhou felt embarrassed and sent more men. The more people bullied the fewer people. He forced the six ghosts back, pushed the battle line across the river, and occupied the ruins of Nanzhao City.
But after that, there was nothing he could do about Da Zhao's method of avoiding reality and making up for it.
Zhao kills and runs away. If you don't chase, I will continue. If you chase, I will lead you and run. Then I will use a trap to trap the master for a moment and a half, then turn around and go back to kill the soldiers.
For ghosts and monsters, those living soldiers are an excellent tonic.
…
Before October, the situation changed from offense to defense, and the war situation became deadlocked again.
The Zhao Dynasty asked for prisoner exchanges every day, and the King of Zhou knew that he could not give them, but the Zhao Dynasty spread rumors and accused the King of Zhou of being unkind and not a wise king.
It just so happened that the Zhou soldiers were not very convinced of King Zhou, because they all knew that King Zhou should have abdicated long ago and had the Ji family under house arrest.
There were countless people named Ji among the Zhou army. The King of Zhou could appoint a few of his cronies as generals, but there was nothing he could do next.
His support could only kill a few hundred men. He was a mediocre man, and if he was any less skilled in martial arts, it would be like being thrown into the sea, and he would disappear in an instant.
Rumors spread, and the army became unstable. When King Zhou found out, he had to grit his teeth and agree to replace him.
However, King Zhou also played a trick. Instead of changing them all at once, he started with Xiaobing's family members and slowly changed them.
Moreover, he cleans himself and leaves the house, leaving Da Zhao with a headache.
Their fields and properties were purchased and occupied by the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty, or used as fiefs to reward meritorious officials.
…
This can be regarded as benefiting all the people of Zhou Dynasty, but it makes many people secretly despise him.
The king of Zhou once said that all people in the world were Zhou's subjects, and he used this to target the mountain people who killed millions of enemies.
Now, why does the King of Zhou regard these Zhao people? Chess piece? Or is it a tool to attack Da Zhao?
The king of Zhou went back on his word, was unkind to the people, and was unjust to the heroes, and the reputation spread like wildfire.
…
The two sides replaced each other, and the fighting stopped completely.
While the people of Da Zhou were overjoyed at the benefits, the people of Da Zhao in the past hated Da Zhou deeply.
Not only were they mentally humiliated, but they were also physically tortured, and some even died of illness on the road.
Even Zhao Jun was inspired, and the soldiers and civilians vowed to take revenge.
At the same time, the six demons were also dissatisfied with King Zhao because without war, they would not have the blood to practice.
In the end, he couldn't help but vent his anger on the slaves. The slaves were all originally from Da Wu.
Coupled with the instigation and spreading of rumors by people in Wu, the reputation of King Zhao for conniving demons to harm the people of Wu also spread.
Although it hasn't happened for a while, Da Zhao is now on the land of Da Wu.
…
With the personnel exchange ended, nearly ten years have passed.
Hundreds of millions of people in the Great Zhou Dynasty have settled down in Dongsheng Shenzhou, but Great Zhao has been preparing for revenge.
King Zhou knew it, but he didn't think he would lose because he had also been training his army.
Even more so because he firmly believed that he was destined by destiny.
