Chapter 639: Thirty Years Like a Dream (VII)
The crescent moon cast its clear light, reflecting the outline of the person coming in the surprised and panicked eyes of Yan Huanwen and others.
It was Wei Changtian and his group who "left and came back" or never left at all, and Su Xiu who bit her lips tightly with an extremely sad look in her eyes.
There is no doubt that Wei Changtian had no intention of giving up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Whether Yan Huanwen was killed directly or taken back to Liangzhou, it would have a huge impact on the war.
So there is no way he would let the former go.
Since he couldn't get anything out of Su Xiu, he might as well put on such a show.
He even deliberately left this line of words just to make Yan Huanwen believe that they had really returned to Liangzhou.
In fact, Yan Huanwen was already very cautious and did not show up until some reinforcements arrived at Bailing Mountain.
However, he still did not expect that Wei Changtian would choose to strike back under such circumstances.
“.”
"Protect the Emperor!!"
A cold wind suddenly blew up, and the leading man in black shouted loudly, and the internal energy in his body surged violently.
Wei Zhaohai and the other three did the same. In a flash, they rushed forward with murderous intent.
Neither side said a word, and they fought each other as soon as they met.
Especially on Wei Changtian's side, knowing that the other side had reinforcements, he must fight quickly and decisively, so all those who could fight immediately joined the battle. Only Yang Liushi hid in the back to guard Su Xiu who was unable to move.
"Bang!!"
“BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!”
"ah!!"
“.”
Dazzling lights of various colors instantly illuminated the surroundings, loud noises were heard one after another, and even the ground was shaking slightly.
Together with Wei Changtian, it was equivalent to five second-grade masters attacking at the same time, and the power was enormous.
The fact that the group of men in black were able to fight with them showed that they were not weak either.
Two are of the second grade, six are of the third grade, and more than ten are of the middle third grade.
As part of the reinforcements, this configuration is sufficient.
What's more, Yan Huanwen himself is also a third-rank official and is not without the ability to protect himself.
For a moment, one could see figures flashing in the air, swords flashing and sabers flying everywhere, and the collision of moves was like a rainstorm hitting pear blossoms, chaotic and spectacular.
Although the two sides were temporarily deadlocked for a moment, facing the fierce attack of five second-grade warriors from Wei Changtian's side, the black-clothed men, whose overall combat power was much weaker, soon showed signs of being defeated.
“Plop!”
A human head fell to the ground, splashing up a cloud of dust.
This was the last third-level warrior among the men in black, and he died on the spot after fighting for more than ten breaths.
With his death, the combat power comparison between the two sides became "five second-grade" versus "two second-grade and seven third-grade".
In the battle with Xiao Feng at Yanyun Mountain, Wei Changtian used five third-grade masters including Liang Zhen to stop a second-grade master.
Calculated in this way, he is now one and a half levels ahead in combat power.
This gap is undoubtedly huge, otherwise Wei Changtian would not have shown up just now.
However, even though victory is only a matter of time, it is not easy to resolve the battle quickly.
After all, in order to protect Yan Huanwen, the other party will never escape and will fight to the death.
Although there is only one letter difference between "defeat" and "kill", the difficulty level is undoubtedly very different.
What's more, Yan Huanwen is the Great Awakening Emperor, and this team of men in black are his confidants. How could he not have some other means?
"Set up the formation!!!"
A loud shout suddenly rang out, and the leader of the men in black repelled Yu Qi with one move, then suddenly took out a piece of black jade from his arms and crushed it into powder.
After hearing this, the other men in black didn't care about their opponents. They also took out a piece of black jade and flashed back to Yan Huanwen, forming a strange formation.
“Bang, bang, bang!!!”
There was an immediate sound of jade breaking. Apart from two third-rank men in black who were caught in loopholes in the process and killed on the spot, the other seven were injured to varying degrees, but in the end they all managed to stand on the formation and crush the black jade.
Then “Hoo!!”
As a biting cold wind blew up, wisps of black fog spread at an extremely fast speed, and in less than a breath, they enveloped Yan Huanwen and a group of men in black, and also blocked out all light, sound, and breath in the fog.
“Swoosh!!”
“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!!”
Faced with such a strange black fog, Wei Changtian and others naturally could not be so careless as to not have the slightest fear, so they quickly retreated out of the formation before the black fog closed in.
All five of them stood in mid-air, looked at each other first, and then Wei Zhaohai swung out a palm print, directly hitting the black fog.
“.”
There was no sound at all, even the whistling wind from the palm disappeared the moment the palm print touched the black fog.
More importantly, this palm print did not come out from the other side of the black fog, as if it had fallen into a swamp and left nothing behind.
Hmm? Frowning, Wei Changtian stretched out his hand and controlled a long sword to shoot towards the black fog again.
The next moment, the connection between the long sword and the mind established through "Wanren Yin" suddenly disappeared, and he could no longer sense anything.
This was the first time Wei Changtian encountered such a situation.
He was stunned for a moment, then shook his head gently at the other four people and did not try again.
Because the current situation is already very obvious.
This black fog is not only a defensive formation, but also much more difficult to deal with than they imagined.
At the last moment when the goal was about to be achieved, the situation suddenly changed.
Wei Changtian and others were actually not surprised by this.
After all, the whole country of Dajue follows the path of witchcraft practice, which is completely different from Taoism.
Although they already knew what "witchcraft" was good at and what it was proficient in, they only knew the basics and certainly had not been exposed to too many advanced magical powers.
What's more, this formation was created by the Dajue royal family, so it is normal that it cannot be broken for the time being.
It would be strange if Yan Huanwen, as the king of a country, had no ability.
“.”
"Changtian, since we have never seen this formation before, we cannot break it from the outside."
"Yan Huanwen's reinforcements will probably arrive soon, so we can't waste too much time here."
In the air, Wei Zhaohai came to Wei Changtian's side, frowned and analyzed: "If you want to break the formation quickly, now you have no choice but to enter the formation."
"Otherwise you'll have to leave as soon as possible."
“.”
The bright moon shines thousands of miles away, but it cannot penetrate the black fog at all.
Wei Changtian lowered his head and didn't speak immediately, the corners of his clothes rustling in the wind.
Wei Zhaohai is right.
Knowing nothing about this formation, they now have only two options.
Or enter the formation and see if you can find a way to break it.
Or leave early.
Obviously, the former is undoubtedly extremely risky. After all, no one knows what is happening inside the black fog.
Although the latter did not involve any risk, it meant that they had been busy for half a day but still failed to kill Yan Huanwen.
So. "Grandpa, I'll go in first."
After a few breaths, Wei Changtian quickly made a decision.
Seeing that Wei Zhaohai seemed to want to say something, he took the lead and said with a smile: "Grandpa, you don't need to persuade me."
"Didn't I tell you before I came here that if we really encounter danger, I must be the first one to go."
"Besides, this formation isn't necessarily that powerful."
"this"
Wei Zhaohai hesitated for a moment, but finally responded helplessly:
"Okay, then we'll follow you. I think even if we can't break the formation, we won't be in too much danger."
"Um."
Wei Changtian nodded slightly, and without further delay, he quickly walked to the edge of the black fog.
Wei Zhaohai and four others followed behind him.
The five men drew their weapons, prepared themselves, took a deep breath and stepped into the black fog.
Then "Hmm?"
After more than ten breaths, Wei Changtian, who had walked out from the other side of the black fog, looked confused.
After entering the formation, he was surrounded by fog and could hardly see anything, so he could only keep moving forward.
And then he came out like this? ?
Where are Yan Huanwen and the group of men in black???
Looking back at Wei Zhaohai and others who had also walked out of the black fog, Wei Changtian frowned, and then entered the black fog for the second time.
Then the third, fourth, and fifth times After crossing the black fog five times from all directions but still failing to meet Yan Huanwen, the five people finally figured out one thing.
This formation is probably an extremely rare illusion formation.
After all, Yan Huanwen and others must be in the fog, but they couldn't meet them, which means that the roads they had taken before were "fake".
As for where the "true path" is, perhaps only those who are extremely proficient in battle formations can see the clue.
And none of the five of them knew the formation, so... "Alas."
With a sigh, Wei Changtian searched the system for a long time but couldn't find any "formation-breaking props", so he had to prepare to go home.
But just as he was about to speak, a faint voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Earth, Earth, Fire, Mingyi, dark and bright."
"Gen represents mountain, movement and stillness are at the right time"
"Standing at thirty-six hexagram positions and facing fifty-two hexagram positions, the formation can be broken."
