Chapter 670: Dragon Pass Breaks
"Quick, return to defense, Dragon Coil!"
Long Ying said hurriedly.
The huge dragon formation suddenly turned and coiled like a giant python. Duan Yuan and others took action, twisting the dragon's belly and coiling the dragon's tail where Li Hao was in the deepest part.
After the previous battle, Li Hao's performance has been fully recognized by them, and now they all choose to defend Li Hao first.
Li Hao's face changed when he saw the Ghost Plot Formation charging towards him. He could feel an aura that was much stronger than the Hell Ghost Formation. He felt a chill piercing his back, as if he was shrouded in the haze of death.
Life and death were at stake in the blink of an eye. Li Hao had no time to think. Just as he was about to burn the True God Blood, Shi Miao's voice suddenly entered his mind:
"I'll do it."
Suddenly, a terrifying force of time acted on the dragon formation. Then, Shi Miao, who was at the dragon's claws, burst into a colorful divine light.
The giant dragon waved its sharp claws as if tearing through time and space, blocking the void battlefield where the ghost witch formation was rushing towards it, leaving a trail of ruins in time and space.
The ghost witch's formation crashed into the void of space and time, and her figure stagnated, as if frozen inside.
But this stagnation was extremely short. Shi Miao raised his hand again, and a colorful spiral divine light appeared in the void. Like a sharp arrow, it instantly shot towards the ghost witch formation and pierced through one of its arms. Many ancient demons fell out and their bodies exploded.
The ghost witch lost an arm and became more and more crazy. She roared and rushed forward at an even faster speed.
Long Ying and the others had not yet recovered from their shock. They had not expected that Shi Miao could actually counterattack and injure the ghost formation.
Bang!
Suddenly, a dragon roar was sounded. The giant dragon of the Earth Armor Tribe that was chasing behind the Ghost Formation caught up with Shi Miao at the moment of his blocking, and bit the Ghost Formation's back, and the two sides started fighting.
"Quick, retreat to another place."
Long Ying said hurriedly.
The nine people cooperated with the two armies and retreated quickly, away from the battlefield here. The aftermath of the battle in the ghost formation would cause damage to them.
Fortunately, they retreated safely from the side. The ghost witch formation was entangled by the giant dragon of the Earth Armor Tribe and could not escape. Moreover, because of a broken arm, it quickly fell into a disadvantage.
When Long Ying and the others saw this, they were all shocked. They thought Li Hao's performance was amazing enough, but they didn't expect Shi Miao to actually use the Liuhe Dragon Scale Formation to injure the Ghost Po Formation. This was no less than an Immortal King crossing two realms to severely injure the opponent.
I thought these two people coming to the seventh floor of Dragon Shield would be a burden to them, but now it seems that they are a blessing to them.
Before they could catch their breath, the Yan Gui formation came to attack from the side, and many of them were caught in the fight again.
The situation on the battlefield was also undergoing tremendous changes. Fights were taking place everywhere, and in the foreign land where the two quasi-emperors were fighting, countless destructive forces were filling the air. Along with the dragon's roar, a huge body of an ancestral dragon withdrew from it, and another ancient demon figure, as hideous as a black giant ghost, with black mist all over its body, turned back to the group of ancient demons.
At the back of the battlefield, Qing Xuan hurriedly met the returning City Lord Long Potian. When he saw his disordered aura, his expression changed slightly and he said:
"City Lord, are you okay?"
"It's okay, that guy was hurt more seriously than me!"
Long Potian grinned slightly, but glanced sinisterly at the group of ancient demons. Then he looked around and saw that although the battlefield was in a stalemate, the situation was still stable and they were in an advantageous position.
He glanced towards the teleportation array and saw that the Tianjia troops deployed there in advance had already appeared and killed all seven or eight ghost witches who tried to destroy the teleportation array. Two of the ghost witches were also entangled and unable to escape.
He was determined in his heart, and roared to the sky like a dragon:
"kill!"
The voice of the Ancestral Dragon spread throughout the battlefield. For the various tribes in the Eastern Region, it had an exciting force that could inspire their blood.
Many military formations burst out with even more terrifying momentum and charged towards the ancient demon formation.
Li Hao and Shi Miao also felt that the morale of Long Ying and others had doubled, and the power within the dragon formation had increased by 10%, so they charged forward and killed.
When Li Haoji's Dao Fa was about to decline, he planned to burn the blood of the True God to continue to maintain his strength, but he found that the Yan Gui formation around him was retreating rapidly, and one black giant ghost after another was fleeing on the battlefield.
"They're trying to escape, kill them!"
Long Ying growled.
They chased out, and these demon ghosts turned their backs on them and were soon hit hard.
But the dragon shadow did not pursue further, and stopped at the end of the land outside the city. In the void, the ancient demon army was still filled with black air, and it was impossible to tell how many there were. It was a huge crowd, carrying an extremely strong oppressive feeling.
"Hold it!"
“We won!”
Looking at the large number of ancient demon soldiers fleeing, cheers broke out from all over the battlefield.
Li Hao followed in the army formation, but his mind became extremely calm. He glanced around and saw countless blood of ancient demons all over the battlefield, among which were the corpses of many soldiers of various races.
With the sound of the horn, many military formations retreated one after another without further pursuit. In the void on the side of the ancient demon group, the black fog gradually moved away and disappeared, and the starry sky regained its brightness.
“We won!”
Long Ying finally relaxed at this time, a smile appeared on his face. In this battle, there were no casualties among the nine of them. Although the belly of the army formation was damaged and some soldiers were injured, the army formation was not broken. The damage was relatively minor, which was an excellent result.
"Luckily you stopped that witch formation, otherwise we would all be doomed."
Long Ying looked at Shi Miao the first time and said with relief.
He had a vague feeling that if this girl challenged him for the position of building owner, she would probably succeed, and he couldn't help but feel respect for her.
After hearing Long Ying's words, Duan Yuan and others couldn't help but look at Shi Miao with joy and gratitude in their eyes.
Shi Miao saw their expressions, and her frown relaxed slightly. She nodded calmly. Although she had been a little bothered by them before, she let it go now. She moved quickly to Li Hao's side and asked, "Are you okay?"
"fine."
Li Hao shook his head and smiled.
After the initial victory, he also felt the horror of this top battlefield on the border.
Even if he becomes an Immortal King now, there is still the danger of perishing in an instant.
Shi Miao gave him a reproachful look and said in a voice transmission, "There's no need to do that. Don't burn the True God Blood. Although it's your trump card, it's not easy to cultivate back the burned True God Blood."
Although Li Hao can extract the blood of the true god by eating the flesh and blood of the ancient demon, he still needs to eat a lot before he can get the blood back. Compared with ordinary people, this is an extremely abnormal way of cultivation, but it is ultimately a loss to himself.
Li Hao knew that she felt sorry for him and nodded: "Until the real moment comes, I won't use it easily."
Shi Miao nodded. She also knew that the situation was critical and there was no better choice. However, Li Hao didn't have one, but she did.
"Brother Haotian, we underestimated you before. We didn't expect that your performance would be just as good as ours."
Gui Xuanbing of the ghost clan said to Li Hao.
Everyone else's eyes also fell on Li Hao. Except for Shi Miao, Li Hao's performance was also surprising. Not only did he not lag behind, but his previous burst of momentum and his quick counterattack against the Yan Gui Formation were stronger than most of them.
Duan Yuan's eyes changed, and soon he showed a solemn expression, and said to Li Hao:
"I was rude earlier. I was short-sighted. I hope you can forgive me."
Li Hao knew what he was referring to. He shook his head and smiled, saying, "That was all a few years ago. Since we're all comrades fighting side by side in battle, there's no need to say that."
Seeing Li Hao's carefree look, Duan Yuan was slightly stunned. He thought Li Hao would use this as an irony, or act cold like Shi Miao, but he didn't expect that the other party didn't seem to care about what happened before at all.
He suddenly felt a warm current surge in his heart. He admired Li Hao's open-minded character. He clasped his fists towards Li Hao again and said nothing more.
Seeing this, the others also smiled and the atmosphere became joyful.
Across the battlefield, the cheers of the army rang out at this moment, like a tidal wave, carrying with it an inspiring force.
Inside the city, dragon drums roared, announcing the withdrawal of troops.
Long Ying and others also withdrew their dragon formation. Both armies thanked the nine people in unison and then returned to the city together.
"This time, we killed five members of the Yama Ghost Formation. In terms of immortal power, it is the most we have achieved in the past thousand years."
On the top floor of Dragon Shield's seventh floor, Long Ying looked at everyone and said, "According to the old rules, rewards are given according to merit. This immortal power will be distributed according to everyone's unanimous agreement. I propose that the first merit go to Shi Miao. Who objects?"
Duan Yuan and the others all looked at Shi Miao. If Shi Miao had not blocked the ghost formation before, they would have been finished. Naturally, no one objected at this moment.
Long Ying nodded. "Since there are no objections, the first place merit goes to Shi Miao. For the first-class merit, I nominate two people: Duan Yuan and Hao Tian. Does anyone object?"
Everyone looked at each other, but still no one spoke.
Duan Yuan was the second only to Long Ying, and his previous performance was extremely hard-working. Li Hao's performance was also surprising. Although he was at the tail of the dragon, he cooperated with the two armies to block the Yan Gui formation, quickly killed one, and helped others to severely damage another, making a huge contribution.
Shi Miao and Li Hao looked at each other without saying a word. They didn't have any ideas about the immortal skills, but they didn't refuse either.
"I think that when we next clash, we can let Haotian take charge of the dragon's body."
Liuli said.
"Yes, I also think that Haotian has this ability."
The others nodded as well.
"Brother Haotian, are you at the first or second level of the Immortal King Realm? Judging from your aura, you've declined to the first level again. Did you take some kind of magical medicine before?"
Gui Xuanbing asked curiously.
Li Hao knew that carving was difficult to explain, so he nodded.
“Are there any side effects?”
Gui Xuanbing couldn't help but ask.
The others also stared at Li Hao. Anything that could temporarily improve their cultivation, like the elixir that Long Ying wanted to give Li Hao before, would have huge side effects.
If Li Hao damaged his foundation because of this, it would be too much of a loss for them.
"It just shortens some of your lifespan."
Li Hao didn't elaborate, he could afford a lifespan of 500 years.
Although Li Hao said it lightly, everyone's expression changed slightly. They said nothing, knowing that Li Hao's contribution was definitely not low.
This person is the Immortal Emperor's personal disciple, and his status is extremely noble. Yet he is willing to sacrifice his life to fight.
"In that case, next time, Brother Haotian should be in charge of the dragon's tail, and the others can help out."
Long Ying said.
The others nodded. They had wanted to take care of Li Hao before because they wanted to double his immortal power, but now, they were somewhat proactive in wanting to take care of this extremely talented young man.
They truly saw some hope in each other, hope for the future!
After the distribution of immortal skills was completed, Long Ying asked everyone to go and rest.
Li Hao and Shi Miao also returned to their respective floors.
After the Jidao method ended, Li Hao's whole body was sore and weak, and he had no strength. He soaked in the mountain spring, silently recovering himself, feeling the divine blood in his immortal body being warmed and nourished.
The fatigue caused by overdrawing my foundation is also slowly recovering.
The scenes from the previous battlefield surfaced in Li Hao's mind. This great battle left a deep impression on him, whether it was the battle between the city lord's quasi-emperor realm, the charge of the various armies, or the shadow of death from the ghost witch formation...
"The war a hundred thousand years ago must have been hundreds or even thousands of times more intense than this..."
Li Hao's thoughts drifted far away. The highest combat power of both sides in this battle was the Quasi-Emperor Realm. The war a hundred thousand years ago affected the entire Realm. The Great Emperor fell, and countless Quasi-Emperors were sacrificed. It was hard to imagine how devastating it would be!
"My strength is still too weak... I must forge my own path to becoming an emperor. Only then will I have the strength to survive such a great war in the future."
Li Hao thought to himself.
The melody emerged in his mind, and the countless fierce roars on the battlefield before touched his heart.
Especially the city lord's shout of "Zulong Fighting" aroused the blood and morale of many soldiers in the army.
Everything in the world has its own sound...
Li Hao slowly closed his eyes, as if he was sleeping in the mountain spring.
After Shi Miao finished recuperating on his own floor, he immediately went to the first floor of Longdun Building. He wanted to see Li Hao, but he saw Li Hao soaking in the mountain spring, as if sleeping, surrounded by a strange Taoist rhyme, and the laws of thousands of ways flowed, surrounding him like a cocoon.
She was slightly stunned, and immediately realized that Li Hao was in some state of enlightenment. She immediately stood by quietly without disturbing him.
Time passes.
The immortal power was reported, approved, and distributed. Long Ying came to notify Shi Miao, who took the initiative to meet him and did not let him enter the floor to disturb Li Hao's practice.
The entire Longmen City, every building and every place, was also recuperating after the war.
In the city lord's mansion.
Qingxuan, Long Potian, and the four great commanders were in the conference hall, discussing the casualties and the purpose of the ancient demon's attack.
"Sure enough, they're heading for the teleportation array. It seems the purpose of the previous trace is very obvious."
"In this situation, we must seek help from Jianlong Pass. Otherwise, if the ancient demon army comes next time, we may not be able to hold on alone."
"This offensive was already very strong, but we were prepared and they were not aggressive and chose to retreat temporarily."
Several commanders spoke one after another.
"Our Longmen City is one of the hundred cities in the second line of defense. Nothing must happen to it." A commander said in a low voice.
Long Potian nodded slightly, then frowned and said, "But Jianlong Pass is the first line of defense, and the manpower is also tight. Instead of asking them for help, it is better to ask for help from other hundred cities. Jianlong Pass cannot be in trouble."
"That's true."
Qingxuan nodded, agreeing with the city lord's words.
They continued to discuss in low voices.
In the blink of an eye, another three years passed.
In the first ten years of Li Hao's arrival in the Eastern Region, he opened his eyes in the mountain spring at the top of the mountain.
At the same time, a secret report of dragon blood was urgently sent to the City Lord's Mansion in Longmen City.
The secret report was shattered, and a dragon roar leaped out from it, revealing a terrifying news:
Jianlong Pass was breached!
