This was the first time he saw a practitioner in the Lingzhao realm.
In fact, according to what Li Ding said, the Wujing Mountain King was also in the Spiritual Illumination Realm. But compared with the spiritual illumination of human beings, the spiritual illumination of Tiger Lord, He Bo, Earth Master, etc. is like one having an army of a thousand men, and the other having a combat power equal to that of an army of a thousand men.
The power of those terrestrial spiritual gods comes from the mountains, rivers, land and rivers under their jurisdiction. The beasts and spirits among them can also be regarded as part of their bodies. If they are taken out separately, their strength will be greatly reduced.
So when Li Boxen saw this person, he immediately swept back, used iron ropes to collect some of the ghost spirits, and then ran back to his physical body.
It took about two-quarters of an hour from the time he left the body to the time he returned. When he opened his eyes, he saw that people were still around him, and four or five monster corpses were piled nearby.
Chang Qiuwu opened his eyes when he saw him, and said hurriedly: "Junhou, it seems that we can't seize the car tonight. Then Zhu Hou will not be Wei Zongshan's opponent. You have caused the two armies to fight and made the Sui army lie down." With nearly a hundred people, Zhu Hou is about to be defeated. It’s considered a big victory for us, so let’s leave quickly!”
At this time, Li Boxen still felt a little dizzy, his body was sore and he even felt a little exhausted of his spiritual energy. The Yin spirit leaving the body has no physical body to protect it, so it is naturally much more fragile. He received another spell from a Lingzhao Realm practitioner, which seemed to have almost damaged his true essence.
But Li Bochen didn't care about the exhaustion of spiritual power. He cursed in his mind, and after a moment he stood up energetically and said, "There's no rush. You can still take a look."
Chang Qiuwu still wanted to speak, but Fang Yu said in a deep voice: "Mr. Chang, the Lord has given an order. If you are afraid, sir, please go back first."
Chang Qiuwu opened his mouth, but had no choice but to press the hilt of his sword and keep silent.
At this time, Wei Zongshan led hundreds of people to form a formation outside the camp. Zhu Hou was shocked when he saw his ability. Taking this opportunity, the Sui army trapped in the melee broke out and joined forces with Wei Zongshan's people. . But the hundred-man team, which was originally a devastated army, now only has fifty or sixty remnants left.
Perhaps because he saw the carvings on the big stone before, Zhu Hou is very tough now. He laughed loudly and shouted: "Come on, the general will be named! Zhu will not kill the unknown people with his sword!"
The bandit soldiers under him obviously didn't know how powerful Wei Zongshan was, so they started shouting loudly, taking advantage of Yu Yong who had won a battle.
Wei Zongshan's face was as sinking as water, he snorted coldly and said: "I am Wei Zongshan!"
Zhu Hou raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "What is the name of a bird? I have never heard of it!"
He pointed his gun at him again and said: "Wei, you look like a dog, do you dare to fight with me? If I lose, retreat immediately. If you lose, give me the old camp!" "
When Chang Qiuwu heard this, he couldn't help but whispered: "Zhu Hou is seeking death! He can't even move away!"
But Li Boxen thought to himself, I'm afraid that might not be the case.
He always thought Zhu Hou was weird, but he never found anything wrong. Not only did this man change his temper and improve by leaps and bounds, he was also indifferent to the death of his son Zhu Yi. No matter how you looked at it, he was a completely different person. Li Boxen always felt that there was something hidden in him. If he really faced off against Wei Zongshan, he might be able to force those things out at the critical moment of life and death.
After Wei Zongshan heard Zhu Hou's words, he remained silent for a moment with a straight face, then suddenly laughed and shouted: "Okay, come!"
As soon as he hit the horse, he rushed to the front of the formation. Zhu Houyi clamped his legs on the horse's belly and charged forward with a big gun.
There was about fifty or sixty steps between the two military formations, and the two horses crossed each other in the blink of an eye. Just hearing a bang, a big gun buzzed into the sky.
When both of them turned their horses' heads, they saw that Wei Zongshan was as stable as a mountain, but Zhu Hou was empty-handed. His body swayed on the horse, and he finally managed to sit firmly, and immediately shouted: "Damn it, you are bullying me with one arm, how can you be a hero!? If you have the guts, you can only use one hand!"
Wei Zongshan showed a smile on his face and said: "Okay. Come again!"
After he said this, the horse rushed towards Zhu Hou again. Li Bochen had seen him agree to fight Zhu Hou alone in front of the battle, and felt that this man was quite brave. But at this time, Zhu Hou's big gun fell out of his hand. Wei Zongshan only said hello but did not allow him to pick up the gun, which was obviously his intention to play with it.
If this person, like Zhu Hou, was a Qi-nourishing person, or even in the Dragon-Tiger realm, Li Boxen might be forgiven for feeling that the battle formation was not a place to show mercy. But he was already a spiritual warrior, and even with his bare hands, it was easy to kill Zhu Hou. Now that this has happened, it is really despicable.
When Zhu Hou saw him responding, he rushed over and immediately ran away. He only had one arm, and when fighting with a gun before, he only relied on the strength of his legs to hold the horse's belly. Now that there is no gun, I use my hands to pull the reins. But even so, the horse only ran a few steps before he fell off the horse.
Li Bochen thought to himself, it seemed that he had only received one blow from Wei Zongshan and was seriously injured. In the past, when he was in the spiritual enlightenment realm, Li Ding once said that his strength was comparable to that of the dragon and tiger realm. Now that I am at the pinnacle of Qi-nurturing realm, I wonder how it compares to Wei Zongshan's strength?
Zhu Hou fell to the ground, but Wei Zongshan's smile grew stronger. He rode his horse over and stabbed him with his halberd. Zhu Hou rolled on the ground and avoided it. He shouted: "Brothers, come together! We have the blessing of the true king!"
Wei Zongshan laughed loudly when he heard this, then stabbed the ground playfully and said, "True King? I'm afraid it's an evil spirit!"
Then he shouted: "The whole army attacks!"
Listening to the orders of their respective commanders, hundreds of people immediately strangled together again. But this time there was no help from Li Boxen's secret soldiers. Wei Zongshan knocked Zhu Hou off his horse again, and the morale of the Sui army was high. As soon as the two waves of people collided, the bandit army was immediately at a disadvantage. Although they still had some courage, they were just relying on their blood and energy, and did not know how to coordinate their advance and retreat. In the blink of an eye, they were rushed into the formation by the Sui army and were gradually separated.
Seeing this scene, Chang Qiuwu hurriedly said: "Junhou, if you really want to seize the car, do it now!"
Li Bochen knew that Zhu Hou's words were true. At this time, most of the Sui troops in the camp had gone to war, and looking at the imminent victory, they might relax their vigilance. Zhu Hou's soldiers and horses can hold out for at least another quarter of an hour, and then they will be defeated. At this time, it is very safe to seize the chariot.
But when he saw Zhu Hou dodge left and right in the chaotic army, and Wei Zongshan rode his horse and halved one person at a leisurely pace, approaching slowly, his heart moved again. He really couldn't describe how he felt, but he just felt that the time had not come yet.
But he also knew that making decisions based on "feeling" was a taboo on the battlefield. He took a breath and was about to speak, but saw Wei Zongshan approaching Zhu Hou. Zhu Hou was shouting, but the sound of killing in the wilderness was so loud that Li Boxen couldn't hear him clearly. But I think he might have shouted something like "True Lord, save me".
Wei Zongshan smiled slightly and pierced Zhu Hou's belly with a halberd, nailing him to the ground. Zhu Hou was in pain. He raised his hands and his fingertips glowed with white light, as if he had used a spell. But the white light shot under Wei Zongshan's armor and immediately dispersed.
Wei Zongshan twisted the spurge again. Zhu Hou's eyes widened and he stopped moving. Wei Zongshan stared at him and then knocked away a bandit soldier beside him. He raised his halberd and sighed. He seemed to be bored for a moment and ignored the Sui and bandit soldiers who were standing around. He dragged the big halberd with him. Then he walked towards the camp.
But he only took four or five steps when he seemed to feel something. He suddenly stopped, turned around and looked behind him——
Zhu Hou stood up again.
There was a huge gaping hole in his stomach, and half of his intestines were leaking out. But now his eyes were completely red and his body was as straight as a big gun. It was not only him who stood up, but also the corpses on the battle formation. But at this time, the two sides were fighting in a melee, and the living people's bodies were covered with flesh and blood. If Li Boxen hadn't been watching, it would have been difficult to notice anything unusual.
Immediately afterwards, a scalp-numbing roar suddenly sounded from the surrounding darkness. Li Boxen knew as soon as he heard it that it belonged to those monsters before. More than half of the two to three hundred monsters were dead. They were all scattered like birds and beasts. But now they were reunited, and in the blink of an eye they jumped out of the grass and rushed towards the battle group.
These monsters used to act solely on instinct, but now they seem to have unified command and know how to coordinate their advance and retreat. Those big demons were surrounded by smaller demons. The stronger ones ran in front, while the lighter and more agile ones were hidden behind. Once they entered the crowd, they did not fight indiscriminately, but only attacked the Sui army.
Suddenly, the Sui army was in disarray. When he discovered that his fallen comrade had also come back from the dead, wielding a knife at him, he became even more panicked.
Wei Zongshan strode up to Zhu Hou, raised his halberd and stabbed him, but Zhu Hou was as nimble as a monkey at this time. He jumped back and jumped into the crowd. With Wei Zongshan's cultivation level, it is actually no problem to deal with these monsters and dead people. However, he did not kill all the enemies. He only pushed back the monsters around him while shouting loudly, as if giving an order to withdraw his troops.
After a while, he puffed up his chest again, white light emitted from the tip of the halberd, and his voice was like thunder: "The spirit god here! Do you really want to interfere in the affairs of strangers!? Aren't you afraid of God's death!?"
Listening to his shout, Li Bochen suddenly felt his mind clearing up, and he immediately wanted to understand what was strange about Zhu Hou——
It's a tiger!
He immediately left his body and looked at the corpses. All the Yin spirits wandering on the battlefield were gone, but every corpse was glowing with a faint green light, indicating that Yin spirits must be attached to them.
The one who can command these monsters and ghosts is naturally the tiger here!
But Li Boxen also knew that the tiger was a spiritual god on earth and could only take care of matters within his jurisdiction and could not easily interfere with strangers. If there is any violation, it is said that like Zhang Shanjun, he will be punished by thunder and heaven. But why does the "spiritual god of this place" in Wei Zong Pass dare to do this?
I'm afraid it's because of Zhu Hou!
He had seen a "tiger" in the mountains before. But it seems that the ghost spirit of the monster named Foot Toad has merged with the empty luck in the mountains here, and it has not yet mastered any magical powers. At that time, he was thinking, where has the original tiger gone?
It's impossible for a foot toad to kill it!
Now he finally had an inference - I'm afraid that the original tiger was like Tiger Zhang, who had given up his luck.
Zhangshanjun gave up his luck and was immediately punished by thunder. But the tiger here has given up his luck - he, Beichen, is still unable to manage, and the world is completely empty, and no one will punish him.
Well, I'm afraid that Zhu Hou's discovery of the secret realm of Thunder Cloud Cave was not by accident. Maybe the tiger who gave up his luck used some trick to possess Zhu Hou and asked him to open the secret realm. Zhu Hou's temperament changed drastically and his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds because of this!
But today’s Zhu Hou, is he Zhu Hou or a tiger? Or is he “Zhu Hou and a tiger”?
But at this time, Li Boxen had no time to think about this. He stood up suddenly and shouted: "Listen to the order!"
When people around him saw what happened in the distance, they were also in a daze. Hearing his voice, I was immediately startled.
Li Bochen shouted again: "Come here, follow me to seize the car - the rest of us are still here to take care of you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, before Fang Yu could say "I have the order", he had already rushed towards the Sui army camp in the distance. Chang Qiuwu was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly pressed the hilt of his sword to follow.
At this time, Wei Zongshan drank what he said and led his troops to retreat. But the monsters and dead people seemed unwilling to let them go, attacking them one after another. Wei Zongshan didn't know what he was thinking. Seeing that the "spiritual god of this place" didn't answer him, he stopped taking action and only ordered the remaining soldiers to form a group to defend. He looked at the distant mountains with a gloomy face, and then turned to Searching among monsters and dead people, it seems that he wants to see where Zhu Hou is.
Li Bochen took advantage of this moment to rush to the other side of the wall of the Sui army's camp. He saw that the defenders on the wall were much sparse, and almost all of them were looking towards the battlefield to the west, with a look of worry on their faces. Chang Qiuwu followed, and the two of them quickly ran to the pile of corpses under the village wall. Chang Qiuwu said, "Junhou, what do you want me to do?"
Li Boxen said: "Listen carefully, you stay here - this is a military order!"
Chang Qiuwu was stunned for a moment, and Li Bochen said again: "I am asking you to support me here. Otherwise, something will happen to both of us inside, and we will be in trouble."
Chang Qiuwu nodded.
Li Bochen slapped Yaohou on his waist, and the Yin soldiers immediately rushed to the top of the city, making several defenders dizzy and in a trance. He took the opportunity to jump up and landed next to them under the cover of night. Before these soldiers could notice, they jumped again and fell into the camp.
It was his luck that this was the south gate of the camp, and the Sui army seemed to have stored all their weapons and supplies here. He was falling behind a pile of sacks covered with canvas. There were several soldiers a dozen steps in front of him. But at this time they were talking, and one of them walked a little further away, went to ask the other person something, and then came back.
Li Bochen held his breath and concentrated, and heard the man who came back whisper: "It's terrible, do you listen? The living spirit god... Oh my god, has General Wei seen the tiger here?"
Another said: "How is that possible?!"
The man from before said: "How is that possible? Qian Xuzhong just came back from the medical camp and said that General Wei had sent an order, maybe using armored vehicles - the person who sent the order said that all the dead were standing up!"
Several others were startled by the news. After waiting for a while, someone cursed: "Damn it, grandma, why don't we stay in Xuantu City and come here to die! Wasn't Wei Zongshan very proud when he brought people here two days ago? We'll all suffer. , why can’t you be strong now!? Damn, he is a traitor after all!”
Another person scolded: "Keep your voice down, you are risking your life!"
When Li Bochen heard this, he immediately stood up and walked out from behind the sack, walked around behind these soldiers, and shouted: "What a brave bitch! Say what you said again!"
Those people felt as if they had been bitten by his drink. They almost jumped up and turned to look at him. Seeing that he was dressed in black armor and had a sinister look on his face, they all lowered their heads and said: "General, general..."
The Sui army had standard armor. However, generals with a little financial resources will also spend a lot of money to buy high-quality armor - some armors have various talismans and small formations engraved on them. Although they are extremely valuable, they will spend a lot of money to buy them to save their lives. For example, Wei Zongshan's armor is not made of armor.
These people said that Wei Zongshan had only brought people here two days ago, so Li Bochen deceived them. Judging from their current reactions, they must have regarded themselves as one of Wei Zongshan's personal generals.
Li Bochen didn't wait for them to speak again, and cursed again: "My generals are fighting bloody battles on the battlefield, and you bastards are talking here! Do you want to receive twenty army sticks? Or do you want to hang your head on the camp gate? !”
According to the military regulations of the Sui army, it was arbitrarily suggested that the leader of the army on the top of the mountain should have twenty sticks. If rumors confuse the public and shake the morale of the army, they will be beheaded and hung on the camp gate for public display. After he told these two things, no one dared to doubt his origins. Several soldiers were so frightened that they fell to their knees with a thud and shouted, "General, have mercy."
When they shouted, several defenders on the wall also turned and looked this way. Li Bochen immediately stared back and shouted: "What are you looking at?!"
The defenders trembled and quickly turned away. There were several people a dozen steps away, but they also stayed away.
According to the military regulations of the Sui army, the drums in the camp cannot stop when there is a war. Li Bochen watched them kneeling on the ground, and asked the military drum to beat in their hearts for a while, and then shouted: "Stand up! Let me ask you, where are the commanders and mechanics of the armored vehicles? Why can't I find them?"
An armored vehicle carries a total of ten people, and the commander is the ten generals. There are about 500 people in this battalion, and there are only more than 40 generals among the ten generals. The commander of the car is different from the ordinary ten generals, and ordinary soldiers should also know this.
These soldiers were afraid that Li Boxen would pursue what they had just heard, so one of them hurriedly said: "General, I just saw the commander of the carriage. He said he was going to inspect the carriage, and he just passed by!"
Li Bochen scolded: "What the hell! I haven't found anyone at all! It has delayed the military situation and you don't have enough brains!"
Then he pointed at the person who was speaking: "Take me over now and let me see if he is there!"
The man stood up tremblingly and said: "General, I really saw it -"
Li Bochen kicked him behind and shouted: "Let's go!"
The man didn't dare to speak anymore and trotted forward. Li Bochen immediately pressed the handle of the knife to follow.
There were not many people left in the camp at this time. Most of the people I saw along the way were transporting wounded soldiers, and they all looked in a hurry and had no time to pay attention to them. The camp of these five hundred people was neither small nor large. Not long after, he saw a large flat-roofed wooden house, and an armored vehicle was parked in front of the wooden house. The armor shimmered in the night. There were three other people busy beside the car, seemingly inspecting the car.
The soldier leading the way pointed his finger and said: "General, look, isn't that Commander Fang?"
Li Boxen said: "What do you want me to say? Do you think I don't have eyes? Go back!"
As if he had been granted amnesty, the man turned around and left without saying a word.
Li Bochen paused for a moment, looked around, and vaguely saw six people carrying iron arrows in the wooden house. They should be soldiers in the convoy. Then he strode over with the hilt of the knife, without looking at the three people beside the car, and just shouted into the house: "Stop, stop! Who told you to move these?"
The people in the room were stunned, and the three people around him were also stunned, and they all came to see him.
Li Bochen then turned around and said, "What did the person who came just now tell you? What are you doing carrying iron arrows? Can you still put things in the car?"
After a while, someone said: "General, you are——"
Li Bochen didn't wait for him to finish speaking, then said: "Hurry up and check the car. Only the commander and the mechanic are on board. It has delayed General Wei's affairs, and none of you will get anything good! What are you doing standing still? Hurry up!"
The three people beside the car looked at each other again, and the person who spoke said: "General, Jun Feng down below is the commander of this car - what do you mean by what the general said?"
Li Bochen stared: "Didn't the person who came just tell you!?"
The commander of the car was stunned and said: "Back to the general, General Liu came just now and asked us to inspect the car - he said that we would drive out of the camp in a while, and he said nothing else."
Li Bochen sighed: "Damn it, this one's surname is Liu!"
Then he said: "Are you the commander? Come here."
He pulled the man away two steps and lowered his voice: "Didn't he say he would drive out from the south gate in a while? Didn't he say he asked you to transport General Wei's things?"
Commander Fang frowned: "No? Transporting something? What kind of thing?"
Li Bochen said: "Ask me, who the hell am I asking? Remove me from the formation and do this stupid thing!"
When he said this, another wave of killing sounds suddenly started in the distance. When Commander Fang heard this, he couldn't help but turn his face, looking very worried.
Li Bochen immediately said: "Don't ask any more questions, hurry up - can this car be used now? If it can be used, use it. If it is a little later, General Wei will have already arrived at the south gate!"
Fang Junfeng finally came back to his senses, thought for a while, and said: "It's possible, but it really doesn't carry iron arrows? There is only a crossbow in the car!"
Li Bochen sneered: "I'm afraid General Wei hopes that there won't even be a crossbow!"
Fang Junfeng then said: "Okay..."
Then he turned to look at the other person and whispered: "Lao Xie, get in the car with me."
The man said: "Oh, I'll call them."
Fang Junfeng said: "No need, it's just the two of us - where are you, General?"
Li Boxen said: "How do you know where to go if I don't get in the car?"
Fang Junfeng walked away a few steps and said something to the other person. The man glanced at Li Bochen and walked quickly to the house to speak to the six or seven people, and they put down the iron arrows they were moving.
Fang Junfeng jumped onto the car tracks and opened the door. Just as he was about to get in, he said: "General, please go first."
Li Bochen's heart skipped a beat, he didn't expect this person to come like this. Because the armored vehicle requires a bed crossbow on the top of the vehicle, the entrance is not straight up and down, but has to be tilted to get in. If you don’t know this car well, you might just jump off it, or you might hit your head.
Fang Junfeng told him to go forward. Was he doubting his identity? At this time, the drums were rumbling in the camp and the shouts of killing outside the camp were filling the sky. It really surprised Li Boxen that this man could be so vigilant.
But when he was in Wuliang City, he not only entered an armored vehicle, but also drove one. So without saying much, he jumped on the roof of the car, held the knife in one hand, hooked the edge with the other, and got in diagonally.
The interior of the car is also quite spacious, allowing a person to stand tall. He landed on the ground, surrounded by darkness. Suddenly, I was shocked—could this Fang Junfeng lock him in? ?
But another sound was heard, Fang Junfeng also got in, and then turned on the talisman lamp. Then the mechanic named Xie also entered the car and locked the door.
The job is half done. Li Boxen walked to the car and sat down, saying: "Captain Fang, let's go."
Fang Junfeng responded and sat on the front left, while Lao Xie sat at the back of the car.
Fang Junfeng pulled a few iron rods and heard a buzzing sound inside the car, followed by the rolling sound of machinery running. It takes five or six minutes for the armored vehicle to start moving and actually move. Li Bochen held the handle of the knife, his face was as usual, but in his heart he just said, hurry up, hurry up - if Wei Zongshan sent someone to rush the car at this time, he might have to kill the two people in the car and try to drive out by himself. .
The three of them were silent for a moment in the car, and then Fang Junfeng said, "General, what do you call me?"
Li Boxen said: "The surname is Li."
Fang Junfeng nodded and said: "The man behind is Lao Xie, his name is Xie Yusheng."
Li Bochen responded: "Oh."
Fang Junfeng said again: "General Li, I heard that there seems to be a tiger outside? There are also monsters and dead people? Is it true or false? Is it difficult to deal with?"
Li Bochen said: "It's hard to say. In fact, I don't know whether it is the tiger or not, but General Wei is afraid that he will really anger the spirits of the place, so it is hard to take action."
When he said this, he realized that the tone he was talking about belonged to "Li Boxen", but not to "General Li" tonight, so he said again: "But what the heck. General Wei will also be killed. It's natural to see that the situation is not good." If you want to retreat, I think it won’t be a big deal for us.”
Fang Junfeng nodded and said again: "General Li, how many did you kill outside?"
About four minutes have passed. Li Bochen heard the rolling sound getting louder and louder, and the vibration of the car became more and more severe. He knew that he could start moving immediately, so he casually said: "Not many, maybe seven or eight."
Fang Junfeng said nothing. After a while, he whispered: "What's going on? General Li, what do you think is going on?!"
Damn it, nothing can go wrong! ?
Li Bochen immediately stood up and walked to Fang Junfeng's side. Just as he was about to ask "What's wrong?", his heart suddenly jumped——
Why did he just ask how many people he had killed?
Another thought flashed in my mind - my armor is clean, and there is no bloody smell on my body!
It was too late to say it, but it was too soon. As soon as this thought passed through his mind, he saw a cold light flash from Fang Junfeng's palm, stabbing directly towards his neck. Fortunately, Li Boxen was prepared, raised his hand and pressed Fang Junfeng's wrist on the roof of the car. He opened his mouth to scream, but Li Bochen struck his head with a palm, knocking him out.
At this time, Xie Yusheng, the man behind the car, said: "...What's wrong?"
Li Bochen lifted Jun Feng's helmet from below and threw him back, knocking him out as well.
It was easy to deal with these two people. But at this moment, Li Boxen felt like he was breaking out in a cold sweat and was a little scared. Who the hell is this Fang Junfeng? Why does his mind spin so fast?
At this time, the body of the armored vehicle shook violently, and Li Bochen knew that it was ready to start. Then he moved Fang Junfeng aside, sat on it, and pulled the lever.
With a rumble, the cart drove forward.
