Chapter 322
322 Chapter 322 the twelve underworld emissaries
Based on the distance between tai Mountain City and the other cities.
At most, it would take less than four hours.
The other cities would definitely receive the news.
In ju Dongyi’s view, the rebels would have to retreat in less than half a day.
Otherwise …
When the reinforcements arrived, the defenders of tai Mountain City would charge out. Under a pincer attack, the enemy would definitely lose.
However …
However, ju Dongyi did not relax at all.
In his opinion.
If the rebels attacked the city now, they definitely had great confidence. In this situation, they had no hope of breaking through.
The result of this …
The only difference was that the enemy had lost a large number of soldiers.
After all …
The number of casualties in a siege was always more serious than in a defense.
Ju Dongyi was very clear.
As the Marquis of thousand mountains, Gu Changqing would never make such a foolish decision.
Since the other party had already done so …
There was definitely something he didn’t know about.
Thinking of this …
Ju Dongyi immediately turned to the Deputy general beside him and said, “”Immediately head to the other three city walls and tell the generals to be on guard against enemy attacks. In addition, no one is allowed to leave the city without my orders. Anyone who disobeys will be killed without mercy!”
“Your humble servant will obey!”
Yes, sir! the Deputy general acknowledged the order respectfully and immediately turned around to rush toward the other three walls.
Seeing this.
Ju Dongyi turned his attention to the enemy in front of him, his brows still tightly furrowed.
What was his backup plan?
At this moment.
In Marquis Qian Shan’s camp.
At the back of the attacking Army, three people sat on the backs of demonic beasts, coldly watching the scene in front of them.
“I didn’t think that a small mountain City would have such a strong defense!”
The one who spoke was a man on the left who was wearing a black robe and a hood. His face could not be seen clearly. His calm voice came from the man, and his specific emotions could not be heard for a moment.
previously, tai Mountain City was indeed nothing much, but now that it is the border point between the great Zhao and our side, the strength of the defense is naturally much stronger. If we can take down tai Mountain City, it will be enough for Yan caizhe, that old thing, to feel heartache for a long time.
Guo Tong, a middle-aged general in the middle, sneered.
He was one of Marquis Qian Shan’s great generals.
When the other party still belonged to the Imperial court, he had already been highly regarded.
Now, with Marquis Qian Shan’s rebellion.
Guo Tong also followed unwaveringly.
according to my estimation, we only have eight hours. If we delay any longer, Yan caizhe would definitely send troops over to help! Guo Tong continued.
This was also thanks to the fact that tai Mountain City was only a mid-sized city.
There was no teleportation gate in the city.
Later on, this place became the front line, making the importance of tai Mountain City suddenly stand out.
However, there was something to be glad about.
At that time, Mingjing Shan had been injured and had been fully focused on recovering from his injuries. He had not had the chance to go to Taishan City to open the teleportation gate. Otherwise, they would have needed to spend a lot of effort to attack the city.
Of course-
It was also because tai Mountain City didn’t have a teleportation gate that they chose it as one of the targets.
“Eight hours?” The man on the right, who was also wearing a black robe and a hood, said, “”The limit of the formation’s power can’t exceed the divine martial realm, so it’ll be easy to break through.
Qing, do you want to do it or should I do it myself?”
The green that he was talking about.
It was the person on the left.
Upon hearing this.
“It doesn’t matter who makes the move,” Qing said indifferently.”If you want to make a move, I’ll let you have it.”
“If that’s the case, then I won’t be polite!”
The man laughed and immediately flew from the back of the demonic beast to Tai Mountain City.
“Can the black nether emissary break the formation?” Guo Tong asked in a deep voice as he watched the man leave.
don’t worry. The twelve underworld envoys are not as weak as you think. Black alone is enough to break the formation.
“Then I’ll wait and see.”
Guo Tong smiled, but his heart also became heavy.
The twelve underworld envoys!
He didn’t know where these people had come from. He only knew that they were sent by Marquis Qian Shan to follow the Army and attack tai Mountain City.
As for the strength of these two …
Guo Tong wasn’t too sure either.
Even with his divine martial realm cultivation, he could not tell how strong these two were.
However …
The green nether emissary made a solemn vow, and seeing the confident look on the black nether emissary’s face, Guo Tong temporarily suppressed the doubts in his heart.
At the same time.
The black nether emissary had already arrived in front of the formation.
At this moment, there were still many people who continued to attack, trying to break the formation with force. However, no matter how fierce their attacks were, they could not break the formation.
On the city wall.
Ju Dongyi looked at the approaching black-robed man, and a hint of uncertainty flashed through his eyes.
In his opinion.
The other party should also be one of the enemy powerhouses who had come to break the formation.
However, the previous attacks of the experts had not been able to shake the formation. The possibility of one more person breaking the formation was next to nothing.
However-
The other party’s mysterious outfit made ju Dongyi pay attention to this person.
But even so …
He also did not leave the city to fight.
After all, ju Dongyi couldn’t be sure if there were any other ambushes outside the city. Right now, relying on the city to defend was the most secure way.
As long as they could defend the city.
Then, everything would be fine.
If the city was lost, it would be the end of his position as the city Lord.
Outside the formation, the black nether emissary stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the formation in front of him.
In the next instant!
The void trembled and collapsed.
A terrifying power erupted from his body.
Immediately.
The black nether emissary’s palm landed on the formation.
A terrifying power was unleashed, and it was as if the entire city was trembling. All the experts who felt this power looked up at the black nether emissary outside the array with horror in their eyes.
Under everyone’s gaze.
With the black nether emissary’s palm as the center, one, two, three, and countless cracks rapidly appeared on the barrier, then spread in all directions.
A few seconds passed.
The entire protective shield had already turned into an egg shell filled with cracks, as if it would break at any moment.
“Can’t even withstand a single blow!” A disdainful sneer came from the black nether emissary’s hood. His palm exerted force again, and the entire formation shattered under ju Dongyi’s shocked gaze.
The formation was broken!
It meant that tai Mountain City had lost its greatest protective barrier.
And …
Even a peak divine martial realm expert might not be able to destroy a formation with one strike.
so,
When he saw the figure in the air, a thought that even he couldn’t believe came to ju Dongyi’s mind.
A heavenly being!
Could it be that in order to attack tai Mountain City this time, the rebels had even sent out heaven-level cultivators?
Moreover …
Besides Gu Changqing, there should not be a second celestial in the rebel forces.
As for whether the black-hooded expert in the sky was Gu Changqing himself, ju Dongyi was very clear that the other party was definitely not the former Marquis of thousand mountains.
Before he could be too shocked.
The moment the shield was broken, the rebels, who were in the airborne realm and above, directly crossed over the city wall and entered the city.
Suddenly-
An intense battle broke out in the city.
Seeing this, ju Dongyi’s heart had already turned cold, but he still didn’t give up. Instead, he directly ordered, “”All cultivators in the airborne realm and above, kill the enemy powerhouses in the city with all your might.
The rest of you, defend the city wall and stop the enemy. Don’t let anyone in.”
“Today, as long as the city stands, we will live. If the city falls, we will die!”
“As long as we can stop the enemy’s attack and wait for the Imperial court’s Army to come to help, everyone will be rewarded. Those with outstanding achievements will be promoted to noble titles and bring glory to their families!”
Ju Dongyi’s words were directly transmitted through divine sense, and in an instant, it spread throughout the entire tai Mountain City.
The morale of the defending Army had fallen because of the broken formation.
After hearing these words, the conviction in their hearts recovered by quite a bit. There was even someone who shouted at the top of his voice, “”As long as the city exists, we live. If the city dies, we die!”
“As long as the city exists, we live. If the city dies, we die!”
“Kill!”
The majority of the People’s emotions were stirred up at this moment.
To them …
Joining the Imperial court as a soldier was for the sake of killing the enemy and making contributions. They would have the opportunity to be promoted to a noble and glorify their family. At that time, they would naturally enjoy a life of glory, splendor, and wealth.
As for the possibility of losing his life.
In their opinion, this was no longer the most important thing.
After all …
If he was afraid of death, he wouldn’t have joined the Army.
Hence, when the formation was broken, not only did the defense of tai Mountain City not weaken, but it became even stronger.
As for the black nether emissary, he didn’t attack again.
With his experience.
Naturally, it could be seen that with the strength of the current tai Mountain City, it could not resist the attack of the Army.
It was just the experts who had charged into the city.
It would be enough to become the last force to crush tai Mountain City.
As for the process …
Whether more people would die or not, that had nothing to do with him.
In the eyes of the dark nether emissary …
Whether it was the people of tai Mountain City or the people on his side, whether they lived or died, it had nothing to do with him. If he had not cooperated with Marquis Qian Shan, he felt that it would be better if both sides died.
so,
After destroying the formation, the black nether emissary immediately turned around and headed back.
Ju Dongyi, who had always been on guard against the black nether envoy’s attacks and didn’t dare to relax, also relaxed when he saw this. The huge pressure on his body disappeared.
He had no choice.
An expert who seemed to be a Deva-level great cultivator was standing there, giving off a strong sense of oppression.
If the other party really made a move …
In terms of experts, no one in tai Mountain City was his match.
Unless they mobilized a large Army and formed an army formation, they might have the strength to fight.
But in the current situation …
It wasn’t an easy task to assemble an Army.
Although ju Dongyi didn’t know why the other party wanted to leave, he couldn’t care so much.
Without the pressure from the dark nether emissary.
He immediately turned his gaze to Taishan City. In the next second, he left the city walls and charged toward a divine martial realm enemy expert.
They had to defend tai Mountain City.
Other than stopping the rebel Army’s attack, they had to deal with the enemy experts in the city.
Otherwise …
If they allowed the enemy to continue killing, it wouldn’t be long before the defense system of tai Mountain City was completely broken.
At that time.
There was no turning back.
