Nezha's departure was just a small episode. No one knew what surprising results he could achieve in Ziwei Palace, or whether he would come back in despair.
Qi Zhen originally thought about asking one or two people from the team to help him to do things together, but after a flash of thought, he gave up the idea. Firstly, Nezha turned around and left without giving him a chance to propose. Secondly, the army at this time Obviously, the help of everyone in the team is more needed than Nezha's side.
Qi Zhen has not been able to judge whether Nezha's trip is a seemingly useless idle stroke, or whether it can determine the outcome of the entire war. However, in short, with his powerful combat power not inferior to Yang Jian, it may be more difficult to achieve success. , but there is always no problem in escaping with your life intact.
Moreover, Nezha, as the former great god of the Three Altar Sea Club, has been an immortal for countless years. He is no longer the impulsive kid who doesn't care about anything. I think he should have some sense of control.
This battle is far from over. Apart from those immortals who are still excited about the victory and sad about the death of their comrades, these people in the command center must hide those complicated emotions in their hearts. Start making arrangements for the next battle.
There is no doubt that they will move into the palace complex where the Lingxiao Palace is located next. Except for Li Jing, this place was quite unfamiliar to everyone. Only after the war ended, everyone had the energy to observe this majestic city in front of them.
If it weren't for the arrival of the Sanxian army, Lingxiao Palace would probably always look like this Jingyue. The four words "Yuan Ting Yue Zhi" are the most suitable to describe this place.
After the cheers and celebrations gradually subsided, Zhen Yuanzi began to arrange the marching and coordination of the battle formation. Only then did everyone truly feel the silent oppression of Lingxiao Palace.
This is a bit like ordinary people walking into the Forbidden City, or like tourists stepping into a towering church. The oncoming solemnity makes people feel awe-inspiring.
Time passed bit by bit, and the work of lightening casualties and treating and recovering were also carried out in an orderly manner.
As expected, more than half of the Sanxian died. Including those who were seriously injured and lost combat effectiveness, the number of people who lost combat effectiveness exceeded 80,000. Among them, there were more serious injuries and fewer minor injuries. This was mainly because the war mode of both sides was to kill. However, there are only a few people who can rely on their own abilities to avoid harm in an instant. From this point of view, such a war is much more tragic than the battle in the world.
Zhang Chi was extremely busy, but it was impossible to restore thousands of people to their peak condition at the same time. The most he could do was to keep the living immortals alive and not die immediately.
As for healing, it still requires the cooperation of others and the injured person's own recovery ability. There are indeed many miraculous elixirs that can be exchanged in the preparation hall, but those are obviously much more effective for mortals than these loose immortals, not to mention that death is expensive, and Zhang Chi is not much.
Who would have thought that one day he would work as a medical support officer for the Sanxian army? At this time, Li Jing finally highlighted his strong psychological quality and commanding style as a marshal.
Even though the Lingxiao Palace was close at hand, he still chose to let all the armies rest in place in an orderly manner, never proceed to the next step rashly, and steadily advance his arrangements step by step, to eliminate all possible accidents to the greatest extent possible. In the bud.
If one goes by the thoughts of the six Meishan brothers or everyone in the team, Li Jing's actions may seem a bit dull and slow, but there is no doubt that it is the best choice to preserve all living forces.
Anyone else would have rushed in long ago. In fact, in the eyes of many people, the reason why Deputy Commander Tianyou and Emperor Zhenwu chose to have a decisive battle outside the Lingxiao Palace was because they did not want to destroy the buildings inside the Lingxiao Palace, and they would inevitably come out in full force.
It is hard to imagine that they would still ambush a reserve team in the palace complex under such circumstances. After all, it was the countless thunders above the nine heavens that ultimately played the decisive role, not the heavenly soldiers battle formation itself.
But everyone had no objection to Li Jing's arrangement. Li Jing's caution may cause them to miss the opportunity to expand their victory, but it will never put them in danger of defeat.
This is the right way to march and form a formation. Just as the army had arranged before, since the opponent did not want to take advantage of the geographical advantages of Nantianmen and Lingxiao Palace to deploy multi-layered defensive formations, then don't blame them for occupying the magpie's nest and doing the opposite.
After a long period of adjustment and recovery, the army finally looked like it had a tidy appearance. Even though the number of the army was too small at this time.
After all, it is different from war on earth. In human wars, if more than one-third of the sergeants are killed or injured, unrest will occur within the army. If more than half of the soldiers are killed or injured, there will be a risk of internal mutiny. If the number of casualties exceeds two-thirds, then there will be An irreversible defeat will occur.
I don’t know whether it’s because the temptation to enter the heaven is too great, or maybe the way the gods calculate battle losses is different from that of mortals. At this time, the army of loose immortals is still orderly. If you look carefully, everyone’s face still has a hint of victory. It's really strange that he was so excited and didn't hurt his comrades' dead objects at all.

"You don't have to be curious. Most of these loose immortals are not cultivated by ordinary people, and most of them are mountain spirits and ghosts. Therefore, what they fear or worry about is different from ordinary people." Zhenyuan Zi set up the formation and returned, properly explaining to the team why the army was like this.
"It's not just that." Li Jing took over the conversation,
"Most mortals do not end up with the complete destruction of war troops, but in heaven it is commonplace."
"Why is this?" Qi Zhen asked.
"Although there is also the theory of reincarnation in the mortal world, after all, mortals' understanding of the underworld only remains at the level of imagination. The so-called life is worse than death. Cherishing life or being greedy for life are the characteristics of mortals." Li Jing explained,
"Immortals are different. We definitely know the existence of the underworld, and naturally understand the operating mechanism of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, so we are not afraid of death. Instead, we know very well that death is not the end, but the next beginning, so we naturally do not hesitate to die. "Everyone in the team nodded.
A bright light suddenly flashed across Qi Zhen's heart, and a message seemed to flash through his mind.
However, when he thought about it again, he couldn't remember what the thought was in his mind, so he could only give up.
"Okay, let's gather our troops and prepare to march into the Lingxiao Palace." Li Jing said. Everyone should do this, each commanding the Sanxian of each tribe, and gathering to count the number of people.
There are only 70,000 combatable soldiers left, and only 2,000 Caotou Gods are left. The impact on the entire army is undoubtedly huge.
Fortunately among the misfortunes, absolute power played a decisive role in this war. Therefore, those who survived at this time were precisely the strong ones among the Sanxian.
Among them, the loose immortals after the second disaster accounted for the vast majority and became the most important combat force in the army.
At this time, every thirty-five Sanxian formed a small battle formation, commanded by a grass-headed god. However, there were only four of the six Meishan brothers left, plus the five Li Jings, each commanding a scale of about 10,000 people. Li Jing, as The deputy commander, on the other hand, has more mobile troops at his disposal.
There are less than 20,000 people left, and they are completely handed over to the unified leadership of the team of eight. These scattered immortals are composed of the original exploration force and the medical logistics force.
Through this war, Li Jing probably understood that these people in the squad are not actually suitable to be commanders of formations. On the one hand, they have strong combat power, and it would be unqualified to focus most of their energy on commanding formations. On the other hand, they are not suitable for commanding formations. On the other hand, they are afraid that they also want to fight more, and leading an army will hinder them from using their strengths.
This judgment clearly hits the mark. Everyone in the team, especially the two girls and Zhang Qi Zhangchi who had never commanded an army in battle, felt a little grateful to Li Jing.
The division of labor within the team is also very clear. Due to Zhaka's previous serious injury, he is mainly responsible for commanding and leading the vanguard force used for exploration, while Zhang Chi is responsible for leading the medical logistics force.
The two armies were led by Lao Wangtou. In addition to having the right to make decisions and suggestions within the entire army led by Li Jing, the remaining team members are just ordinary top soldiers here.
War is changing rapidly, and the management and adjustment of war personnel will naturally change accordingly. This is a commendable way to use troops.
After all, the army marched towards Lingxiao Palace in an orderly manner. As the distance got closer and closer, the majesty and heaviness of the palace complex also hit our faces.
It is indeed worthy of being the center of the entire heaven. Not to mention the army of loose immortals looking around curiously at the beautiful scenery, even the small team couldn't help but look around, sighing at the magic of nature.
The most calm people here are Li Jing and Nuo Lan. Needless to say, Li Jing has been numb to the scenery here for countless years.
Nuo Lan was killed by Yang Jian last time with Lin Biao.
I "invited" myself to the Lingxiao Palace once, and the scenery here was no longer as impactful as the first time.
"King Li Tian, is Lingxiao Palace always so quiet?" Qi Zhen asked next to Li Jing.
"Yeah." Li Jing nodded,
"Usually, the gods practice in their own fairy mansions. This is the place where the Jade Emperor meets and receives his ministers. There are not many people, not to mention that Taoist gods like to be clean, so this place has always been like this."
"If you ask me, it's just flashy and pretending to be pure." Wang Jianguo seemed to have no good words to say as soon as he opened his mouth.
"You can't be wrong in saying that." Li Jing said warmly. After experiencing so many things, his sense of heaven has changed too much.
"Where are we going next?" Qi Zhen asked.
"The army will first find a place to station itself and continue to rest and recuperate. In order to prevent Emperor Ziwei from invading, we must step up our efforts to build a defensive formation." Li Jing said.
