Li Bochen was completely relieved. Even when the shock wave arrived, there was no spiritual power. Because he knew that if this was the result of the "real power" he used, the result would not cause any harm to him.
As he expected - a huge stone slab lifted up by the shock wave hit him hard, but the impact on the huge tree behind him instead built a shelter for him. The force of the shock wave acted on the stone slab and destroyed the giant tree behind it, causing the latter to collapse and rest on the Lanjiang River.
Li Bochen did not rush to escape from this place, but turned sideways to look at the area where the Xumi people were just now.
The ground seemed to turn into waves, and countless branches and buds were like sea snakes in the waves, darting back and forth among the sand and flames. Li Bochen knew that this was not a sign of vitality, but that it meant that the Xumi priests were continuing to suffer heavy losses at this moment - there was high temperature below the soil layer, and hot wind and flames above the soil layer. No matter where it was hidden, it could only be felt. Pain and destruction, one has to struggle to escape. However, the mountains in this area are so big that it takes a long time to get away from the danger zone. In the face of the mighty power of nature, magical power seemed weak and powerless for a while.
Li Bochen laughed twice and said loudly: "Hey!"
"How about this follow-up move?!"
After a moment, several clusters of thin vines suddenly jumped towards him, but at the same time, a ball of magma also roared down. The sky shook and the earth shook, sand flew and rocks flew, fire splashed everywhere, and the thin vines were instantly wiped out.
Li Bochen laughed again and said, "Is this the only method left now? Do you have any backup plans?"
There was no response this time. The branches and buds that stirred the soil seemed to have finally exhausted their strength, withering and burning while sinking into the ground.
So Li Bochen slowly stood up and stepped onto the giant tree calmly, walking towards the other side of the Lanjiang River. Nothing - not even a stone - could hurt him. , when he felt tired, there was even a shock wave from just the right distance to give him a gentle push.
But others are not so lucky. Countless fireballs fell on the fighting Rakshasa and monsters on the north bank of the Lanjiang River, causing a devastating blow. When Li Boxen reached the other side of the river, the surviving monsters and Rakshasa regained their sanity in the face of the natural disaster, began to disengage and retreat. At this time, Li Boxen's footsteps became heavier and heavier, and the side effects of the spiritual possession gradually appeared. He felt that he might not be able to rely on his own strength to pass through this battlefield full of enemies, corpses, and flames.
Then several bolides hit the ground one after another, and the air waves also threw him high one after another. He fell into the center of the battlefield, on top of a bloat. This monster was disemboweled by Rakshasa, and a large number of soft internal organs provided a buffer. Li Bochen did not get up in a hurry, but lay among the corpses and took out Yaohou and cut some tender livers to eat.
This was the center of the battlefield, but both sides were scrambling to escape, so no one noticed him. So he escaped into that realm again and adjusted his breath for half an hour, letting his spiritual power fill his body, and then escaped out. He didn't dare to do anything else there for the time being, because he didn't know whether the fluctuations in luck caused by the power of the spiritual god had completely disappeared, or it might have some other impact.
But he knew something had changed about him. He felt that he would still be as hesitant and anxious as he had been for many years, but his heart was calmer and no longer troubled by so many worries and distracting thoughts.
The arrival of the Fearless Lord in this body changed everything. Although he knew it might be a long time before he could again use the true power that caused the Scourge, he knew he had it. This also gives him the capital to choose to be calm when facing many things.
After a quarter of an hour, he had regained some strength and the place had become slightly empty, so he jumped off the body and continued to move north.
When he was fighting the Xumi people just now, he knew through the spiritual sense that dozens of prisoners had crossed the Lanjiang River, including Ding Min and Gao Haohe. The cultivation of these people is not weak, and some of them will be able to bring the news back alive.
Everything that happens here tonight will trigger various associations among many high-ranking people. Xiaoman and the life in her belly will no longer have any safety risks in a short time. So Li Bochen was no longer eager to return to the Six Kingdoms to prove anything, but chose to go north to see whether the power or something that Aslan said pushed the monsters, Rakshasa, and Sumeru to the south was true. The presence.
About half an hour later, he finally left the battlefield. Both the east camp and the west camp of the Demon Army were on fire, and their backs almost became a sea of fire. Further north from here, you can only see scattered corpses, including those of humans and monsters, indicating that this is the direction Ge Xuanbai and the others are retreating.
Li Boxen crossed a slope. The volcano was still erupting and the night was turning into dusk, so he saw people behind the slope - about a hundred people standing there looking south. As soon as they saw him reaching the top of the slope, these people immediately became restless. He is tall and wears a helmet, and he looks a bit like a Rakshasa. But when Li Bochen lifted his visor, one of them immediately exclaimed: "General Li!"
Li Bochen followed the sound and saw it was Ge Xuanbai. He was being supported by someone, and his left arm was wrapped in torn clothing. I don’t know what he said to these people before. When they heard him call out the three words "General Li", those people were shocked at first, then whispered, and some even took a few steps back and knelt down in panic. . A few people led the rest of the people, and after a while, more than a hundred people fell to their knees.
Li Bochen was a little confused when he saw this scene, and Ge Xuanbai's face was also a little confused, and those who knelt and those who didn't seemed to be even more confused - they seemed not to know what to do if they didn't do this.
Li Bochen quickly realized that these people must have seen his golden body appearing in the camp before, or heard it from others. In the past, he would have felt a little proud to accept such sincere and fearful worship. And now, although he doesn't hate this feeling, he has another emotion in his heart - for the powerful power I have shown before, they really don't know what to do except worship me.
He himself was startled by this thought. This condescending attitude does not seem to have jumped out of his head. It seems that the impact of the arrival of the Fearless Lord has not completely faded away. When I adjusted my breath in that world just now, the Fearless True Monarch had become an illusion with empty outlines. It seemed that it would take a long time to become what it was before. Then I should be cautious about the omnipotence and contempt for everything before. The feeling - pride and arrogance, are two completely different things.
Thinking of this, he walked quickly down the hillside. Before more people bowed their knees, he said loudly: "Everyone, please stand up. This is the work of the ghost spirits, gods, demons, and demons to eliminate evil, and it is not my alone. It is your own destiny to get here."
Some people got up, some were still in a daze. Ge Xuanbai leaned on a gun and said: "Stand up. If you really want to repay your kindness, you can follow General Li to kill the enemy and make meritorious service."
The rest of the people got up. Ge Xuanbai said a few words to the soldier who was supporting him, and the soldier quickly walked into the crowd, seemed to give orders to several officers, and then told them to form a team.
Ge Xuanbai walked up to Li Bochen, bowed first, and called "General Li".
After a while, he said: "It's great that you can survive."
Although those people were arranging their formations under the orders of the officers, most of their eyes still did not leave Li Boxen, as if they must see something unique in him, or they felt that he would turn into a spiritual god again in the next moment.
Li Bochen quickly accepted this gaze. He held Ge Xuanbai's arm, patted his shoulder and smiled: "Those beasts are not worthy of Li's life."
Then he asked, "Are these the only ones left?"
Ge Xuanbai sighed: "There was a windshield when we were in the cellar, but there is no one here. Many people died during the breakout, and many froze to death afterwards. There should be a few more teams, but I don't know where they went. There’s only so much I can bring out.”
Li Bochen thought for a while, then turned to look at the volcano to the south. The mountain is extremely high, and they are not too far away now, so the mountaintop, which is almost covered with magma, still seems to occupy half of the sky, as if the sky is burning. But other than that, there is no other vision - this refers to the incarnation of the demon god that took possession of Ruzhiya's ghost after his death.
Unexpectedly, such power could not kill the Sumeru priest. But it must have been severely damaged - he would no longer be able to build a huge bridge capable of transporting hundreds of thousands of troops in a short period of time.
This is also a good thing. Li Bochen thought to himself, if another incarnation of the demon god like Zhiyasi appeared, I'm afraid none of these people would be able to leave tonight.
He turned around again and said: "I told you to go north because the road to the south was guarded by demonic troops. There should be no obstacles there now. General Ge, please try to take people back."
Ge Xuanbai was stunned: "What about you?"
"I want to go north." Li Boxen said, "The devil seems to be going south for some other reason in the north. I want to try and see if I can find out."
Ge Xuanbai blurted out almost immediately: "Then we will follow you."
Li Bochen was about to speak, but Ge Xuanbai said again: "Going south, I'm afraid half of these people will die again - going south has to climb mountains, hundreds of miles of ice and snow, and I don't know if there will be demon soldiers. Go north , when we get to the bunker you mentioned, take shelter from the wind and snow, at least you can breathe a little easier."
Li Bochen turned to look at the soldiers, knowing that Ge Xuanbai was telling the truth. These people must have practiced basic mental skills in the military, and their physiques are stronger than ordinary people, but they cannot last long in such a temperature.
And when he looked at them, once someone met his gaze, he would be startled for a moment, then lower his eyes in awe, or turn away, or show a very careful smile. They seemed to regard themselves as people who could be worshiped or relied on - Li Bochen did not feel that he could not leave a group of people with such vision and let them fend for themselves. Moreover, in a sense, these people have also become followers of the Fearless True King.
He said: "Okay. I will take you to the bunker first. Then you can decide whether to go north or south."
Ge Xuanbai immediately turned around and announced this, and the crowd let out a low cheer. Li Boxen took another look at the volcano and sea of fire in the distance, and his mood was completely different from that of a dozen days ago.
Now I have a sharp edge. So this was an expedition, he thought, not an expulsion.
