Jiang Shuo was startled, and turned around to look again. Several Maoshan Taoist priests had already stabbed or chopped, and injured several Yiluohe warriors. If Wei Jingzhao killed one person with one sword, it was because of his strong martial arts, then the other Maoshan Taoist priests They all had the upper hand, but it was all due to the power of the sword formation.
The Yiluohe warriors were very fierce. Although one of them died and several others were injured in the first fight, they still had high morale. A Yiluohe warrior replaced the dead warrior and formed a complete formation of thirty people. Ordinarily, Even if there were casualties between the two sides in the battle, they could not make up for it, but the Taoist priest from Maoshan showed no dissatisfaction at all. He still retreated while fighting, and continued to injure his opponent while retreating.
Within ten seconds, another Yiluohe warrior was stabbed to death. Jiang Shuo recognized that the Taoist priest who had done the trick was Wei Jingzhao's younger brother, Wei Qumo. However, within a few seconds, another Maoshan Taoist stabbed to death. This time it was Wei Jingzhao who performed the feat. Jing Zhao's junior brother Meng Zhanran, it seems that Maoshan is really full of elites. Among the twenty-nine Taoist priests, there are five or six masters of Wei Jingzhao's generation. Compared with the opponent Xuanji Formation, which only has two masters Li Guiren and Yin Ziqi, obviously Maoshan faction has the advantage in most positions.
Jiang Shuo had already seen some clues at this time. The method of fighting in the Xuan Ni Sword Formation was to use the strategy of defending and retreating when encountering an enemy who was attacking fiercely to avoid their sharp edges. The Taoist priests were looking for them while retreating. The weakness is not the enemy in front of you, but another person beside you who is fighting with your comrades!
The Yiluohe warriors moved according to the formation, and were covered by their comrades on the left and right wings. Therefore, they could attack the enemy in front of them with all their heart. Nine out of ten moves were offensive, but they could not have imagined that the Maoshan Taoist priest's seemingly haphazard retreat strategy , in fact, they tore the enemy formation apart. They patiently pulled the enemy formation apart, and as soon as a slight gap was exposed, they immediately attacked the enemy on the flanks.
When Yiluohe was training the Xuanji Formation, the first priority was to give up the instinct to defend his side and completely entrust his side to his colleagues. With years of training, this awareness has almost been engraved in his bones, and Maoshan Taoist Priest The attack was on the side and rear where the other warriors in the formation should be guarding, so almost every attack was sure to hit, and every attack was successful.
Once Jiang Shuo understood the truth, he no longer needed Wei Jingzhao to point him to the location. He did not use force to attack quickly. Instead, he followed the sword array forward and retreat, waiting for opportunities to strike from left to right. His martial arts skills were higher than those of the Maoshan Taoist priests, and his strike range was higher. He was farther, faster, and the angle of the sword was more tricky. He only jumped in front of and behind Li Guiren repeatedly. He didn't have a few fights with Li Guiren, but he had already stabbed down several warriors around him. .
Wei Jingzhao saw that Jiang Shuo had understood the beauty of the Xuan Ni Sword Formation so quickly, and couldn't help but nod in approval. He no longer cared about his side, and he and his brother Wei Qumo fought around Yin Ziqi. Although the two seemed to be blocking In front of Yin Ziqi, but in fact he had been looking for an opportunity to assassinate the warriors around Yin Ziqi. After fighting for a while, other Maoshan Taoist priests also made gains. Although the Yiluohe warriors continued to replace their positions, a large number of warriors lay on the ground, but the Maoshan Taoist priests did not. The first is injured, and the second formation is judged.
Dugu Xiang stroked his palm outside and said: "Mr. Yin, how did the old Beiming disciple teach you such a useless disciple? No wonder he had to expel you from the disciples early. If you were still under the Beiming disciple, you would have fought with Maoshan today. Such a huge defeat will make him angry to death." He then said: "Li Guiren, are you still shameless? Look how many people are lying on the ground? It was agreed that thirty people will fight thirty people. There are no less than a hundred people filling the Yiluo River front and back. Even if you are so shameless, you still can’t defeat Daoist Wei. I’m ashamed of you..."
In fact, Yiluohe only filled up a total of twenty or thirty people, far less than a hundred people. However, it was also true that the performance of the Xuanji Formation was far inferior to that of the Xuan Ni Sword Formation. How could Yin Ziqi and Li Guiren maintain their own identities and compete with them? A little girl in Duguxiang quarrels? However, the Maoshan Sword Formation looks weak and scattered, but no matter how hard you attack and charge, the opponent will not confront you head-on, but will succeed in sneak attacks many times. How can you not be angry? The two of them were so angry that they gritted their teeth, their facial features moved, but they were unable to do anything. .
Li Guiren suddenly shouted: "Stop rotating the formation, enter the wall, and force them into the blind corner of the wall. Let me see if the Maoshan Taoist priests really know how to penetrate the wall!"
Maoshan Taoism has been passed down in the world as a miraculous thing. Not to mention the magical magic that summons gods and exorcises ghosts, and raises the flesh and bones of the dead. There are also magical legends about moving mountains and unloading mountains, transplanting flowers and trees, and shadow shields passing through walls. Of course, these are not. It may be true, such as the wall-penetration technique, or it may be that Ge Ruliang has left a secret door in Xixi Villa in advance, or it may be that the Qinggong leap is too fast to make people misunderstand.
I thought it was passing through the wall, but how could there be any reason to pass through the wall without breaking through the wall? Li Guiren asked the warriors to force the Maoshan Taoist priests to the wall. In this way, the Maoshan Taoist priests had no room to move, so they could only fight hard and could not use yin to cure yang.
The Ye Luohe warriors shouted together and retracted their formation. The Big Dipper Formation was naturally not a straight line, but shaped like a spoon handle. After the formation stopped rotating, it was like spreading wings and pushing them sideways.
When Wei Jingzhao saw this, he immediately changed his formation and shouted: "Change to the long snake formation and connect the tail to the right!"
Jiang Shuo felt strange in his heart, thinking, didn't the long snake formation turn into a head-on confrontation with the opponent? It seems inconsistent with the theme of the Xuan Ni Sword Formation of "the weak prevails over the strong". But when he saw the Maoshan Taoist priest starting to leap in one direction, he had no choice but to start running too. As he ran, he realized that the "long snake" was not straight, but was still bending and circling, constantly avoiding the attacks of the Yiluohe warriors, and heading towards the right wing of the Xuanji Formation. Jiang Shuo bit the tail of the formation, and Jiang Shuo felt funny in his heart. Didn't he think wrong? If it was straight, wouldn't it become a dead snake? The long snake formation should naturally be able to bend freely.
The Xuanmen Kung Fu practiced by Maoshan Taoist priests is an internal Kung Fu that focuses on practicing Qi first, working from the inside out. Their internal Kung Fu skills are very good, so they can lift their Qi and jump very fast. The Xuanji Formation can only hold fifteen people on each side. In the small formation, the Maoshan Taoist priest soon passed by Li Guiren's left wing, rushed through the tail of Yin Ziqi's right wing, and rolled back towards the back of the Yiluohe warrior.
Although Li Guiren ordered all the warriors to press forward and not to turn, the Taoist priests in front of him all ran to Yin Ziqi's half. He could only lead his troops to turn to the right to pursue, but Yin Ziqi's right formation was bypassed by the Maoshan Taoist priests and attacked the back. We can only turn around to guard, but wouldn't this mean that we are spinning again unconsciously?
The long snake formation was like a snake holding its tail, firmly holding the tail of the Xuanji formation, and constantly swiping at the back of the Xuanji formation. Now the warriors in the formation were spinning faster and faster in order not to be attacked. Jiang Shuo suddenly realized that the way the Long Snake Formation attacked the Xuanji Formation was just like the "Spiritual Snake Encircling the Turtle" in the North Xuanwu in the Star Step? It seems that it is indeed as Taoist Master Wei Jingzhao said, Xuanmen Kung Fu is from the same lineage, whether it is martial arts or formations, it cannot be separated from its sect.
At this moment, the entwining shape of the long snake became more and more clear. It was difficult for the Yiluohe warriors to attack forward. In order to cover the flanks, they could only keep shrinking their formation. Although Li Guiren and Yin Ziqi's kung fu were outstanding, in order to stabilize the formation, they had to slow down and press. Holding their position, the Maoshan Taoist priests just passed by the two of them and never entangled them. The two wanted to pursue them, but they immediately exposed the warriors beside them to the other Maoshan Taoist priests. At this moment, the two of them seemed to be trapped by their own people. If you live there, you won't be able to use your martial arts skills.
After the Yiluohe warriors in the Xuanji Formation huddled together, the gap became smaller, and the Maoshan Taoist priests were less likely to hurt the enemy, so everyone saw a strange sight - the attacker with sharp moves was trapped in the core, leaping lightly The defenders come and go freely on the periphery.
The number of Yiluohe warriors far exceeds that of Maoshan Taoist priests. If they swarm up and several Xuanji formations are connected with each other, it is possible to trap Maoshan Taoist priests. But at this moment, the number of both sides is equal. Maoshan Taoist priests not only have better light skills, but also have more flexible formations. Under no circumstances can the Xuanji Formation trap them.
In the past, all those who faced the Xuanji Formation, no matter how many in number, rushed straight to the center of the formation. However, they were constantly attacked by the ever-changing Beidou Formation on both sides, inevitably falling into a bitter battle. However, Wei Jingzhao's Xuan Ni Sword Formation went in the opposite direction. In practice, it seems that they are constantly showing weakness, but in fact they are attacking its weak side. In this way, the strongest person in the central formation is useless. After a long battle, the outer Beidou formation continues to lose men, and the Xuanji formation will collapse without attacking.
Li Guiren couldn't help but regret fighting Wei Jingzhao. Although the Yiluohe warriors could continue to replenish their numbers, such a pit-filling style of play could not reverse the current unfavorable situation. In his mind, he blamed these Xi tribe warriors for being muddy and confused, and only hoped that They swarmed up and trapped the twenty-nine Maoshan Taoist priests and Jiang Shuo. Even if they didn't do anything, they just compressed their leaping space and they could break them. However, these Xi people were very stupid and just stood there. While waiting and watching, occasionally one person stepped forward to fill the vacancy of his injured comrade who fell to the ground, but he did not know that they all stepped forward to fight.
I just scolded Li Guiren or Yin Ziqi in my heart, but there was no way I could say something so ruthless as "Brothers, come together".
Seeing that if the fight continues like this, Yiluohe will only increase casualties, and the Maoshan faction is already in an invincible position. Yan Zhuang has also seen that Yin and Li are concerned about their face and are unwilling to rely on more to win.
, and immediately shouted to Cui Qianyou and Tian Qianzhen, the second envoys of Manichaeism: "You two, today various factions in the Central Plains are besieging the main altar. The religion has reached a critical moment of life and death. Are you just standing here and watching Captain Li and Mr. Yin? Are two outsiders standing up for you?"
Tian Qian was really simple-minded and couldn't understand Yan Zhuang's words, so he thought to himself: Didn't Li Guiren himself say that he wanted to fight? At this moment, the outcome has not yet been determined, and it is already a shame to keep filling in people in the Yiluo River. Do we need the two of us to fill in the numbers? Cui Qianyou, however, was quite scheming and had already heard the hidden meaning behind Yan Zhuang's words, and said loudly: "Yan Sheng is right! The moment of life and death for our teaching is not a martial arts competition, so there is no need to talk about the rules of the world!"
The Miaofengtang who guarded the main altar and the believers brought back by the second envoy were all captured by the Minglitang believers of Ruixi using tunnel traps, but after Yiluohe killed them, they were all liberated. Instead, they captured many believers from Minglitang. At this moment, the Manichaeans had also returned to the main altar, and many people had gathered around them. Cui Ganyou turned to these believers and shouted: "Brothers, follow me. Go ahead! Drive out these evildoers who broke into the main altar and defiled the holy fire!"
