Chapter 538: Ten Miles of Burning Forest

Two countries, front-line camp.

A military meeting is going on.

"Everyone, this is the current situation." A Jindan-level general had just finished his speech.

The rest of the people started discussing.

"Ever since our military camp was established, there have been thieves who have been sneaking in to pick up spoils. Previously, we killed a lot of people because of the power of our weapons, but I didn't expect that there are still people who are still willing to do this."

"If I were the enemy and found the Glazed Heart Blood, Ginseng Root Wall Soil, and Dragon Pattern Talismans here, I would also be tempted and take risks."

"I am so ashamed. The enemy discovered these three treasures before us, but we were late to realize it."

"The two ghosts of heaven and earth were the ones who discovered these three treasures. Not only are they from the Soul Devouring Sect, but their combined magical power is terrifying and extraordinary. It's not surprising that they were the first to discover them."

"Humph! The Soul Devouring Sect is too bold. Our country is fighting against injustice, and they actually dare to interfere in our affairs. They deserve to be punished!"

All the soldiers were very dissatisfied with the Soul Devouring Sect.

After cursing and complaining, don't mention it again.

Because everyone knows that Liangzhu Country is not a big country, and the Soul Devouring Sect's base is far away from Liangzhu Country. Faced with such a super sect, Liangzhu Country finally just held them accountable.

"If we can collect the heart blood and wall soil, perhaps they can serve as clues to calculate the location of the Shenxu Dragon King."

"It can also be used as a curse material."

"It's better than nothing. We don't have such a skilled person in our army right now."

Everyone was silent for a moment.

An old general said, "These two treasures are not critical. Even if they are obtained by the enemy, it will not harm the overall situation. What is really important is the dragon-shaped talisman, which cannot be destroyed. The longer we stay here on this battlefield, the better it will be for our army."

"agree!"

“I agree.”

"Indeed."

The generals nodded one after another.

There are many gods, big and small, in the Thousand Peaks Forest, so it has a powerful geographical advantage.

Once the dragon-shaped talisman is integrated into the earth veins, it will reduce the enemy's geographical advantage.

All the generals agreed that they would first arrange troops and strong men to guard the giant dragon-shaped talisman. Then, when the troops had enough strength, they could lay various defense facilities deep underground.

"Among all the armies now, the three generals' battalions have recovered the fastest and are in the best condition. It is most appropriate to let them guard the dragon-shaped talisman."

"That's right."

"agree!"

The generals reached a consensus again.

However, the next moment, Zhao Xi, who had been silent all this time, chuckled.

He looked around, his eyes full of ridicule and disdain.

"It's too late." He said softly, "I issued the order to march long before this meeting."

"At this point in time, they must have officially left the camp."

"What?!" The generals were surprised.

The old general frowned and said, "Master Zhao, guarding the dragon-shaped talisman is a very important matter."

Zhao Xi sneered again: "So, your army can do this."

The old general spread his hands and said, "But our army has not yet fully rested and is not strong enough to fight, Lord Zhao."

Zhao Xi narrowed his eyes and stared at the old general: "So, you want to apologize to me. You are indeed guilty. Why is your army still resting until now? And the army of the Three Generals' Camp is much earlier than you? Have you been too lazy?"

The veteran's expression changed, he immediately stood up, clasped his fists, and explained in a serious manner.

No one agreed with him because the armies these generals belonged to were also in a state of rest.

Military Supervisor Zhao Xi took a look around and said, "Our army is stationed in the center of the Thousand Peaks Forest, surrounded by enemies on all sides. It is better to attack than to defend. The three battalions have performed well and should take on the responsibility of attacking. If anyone has any objections, they can replace them with their own troops."

The room was silent.

Zhao Xi laughed three times, slowly stood up, glanced coldly, put his hands behind his back, and walked away.

Although Du Tiechuan was in seclusion, his confidants and close associates were dissatisfied with Zhao Xi's seizure of power, so it was natural for them to take action against the three generals' camps.

But Zhao Xi was also deeply involved in officialdom and had made arrangements in advance.

"After all, the foundation of this main force is still a new army, which gives me room to intervene."

"Otherwise, with Du Tiechuan's ability, he can build his subordinates into a close-knit group in just one or two months."

"Three Generals Camp, Ning Zhuo, please don't let me down..."

Zhao Xi was secretly worried.

To some extent, he and the Three Generals' Camp are tied together, and they rise and fall together.

Battle formation - a long snake formation.

The three generals' battalions left the front-line camp and marched quickly according to this battle formation.

Their speed is more than four times faster than before.

The training level of the soldiers has improved, but that is not the main reason.

During this march, the entire army of the Three Generals' Camp used marching talismans, wind talismans and other blessings, and the speed of each soldier increased a lot.

They left the camp in the morning and marched all the way, and arrived at the Shili Fenlin in the evening.

The result of the previous military meeting is here.

The elixirs stored in the Qiugen Baicao Cave are too easy to be damaged, so the profits are difficult to guarantee.

Yunjian's visit to Longtai had the greatest prospect, but to build a camp would definitely cost a lot of money. Only Ning Zhuo could afford it, as Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei did not have the financial resources.

Even if there is sufficient funding, there must still be sufficient materials and ample manpower to carry out a major transformation of this Feilai Peak.

The transformation will take a long time, but the battlefield is changing rapidly.

The final choices were only Qianteng Futianlang and Shili Fenlin.

In terms of value, Qianteng Futianlang is undoubtedly higher, and there are more than tens of millions of talismans hidden in it. But because of this, the difficulty of attacking it is dozens of times that of Shili Fenlin.

"In my opinion, this battle should not only consider the benefits, but also the safety!"

"After all, we are the first army to set out to conquer the stronghold, and the risks are difficult to estimate."

"Not only our current situation, but also Zhao Xi's side needs a victory, not a defeat."

Ning Zhuo's words prompted the three generals to finally choose Shili Fenlin.

As the newcomers, the Three Generals Camp has become very popular. I wonder how many people are jealous and envious of them behind their backs.

Too many people are hoping that they will fail, and then they will have a legitimate reason to suppress them. Then, they will further implicate Zhao Xi and squeeze out the newly established military supervisor! Therefore, this first battle is very critical, and we must win and succeed!

As dusk fell, flames from the burning forest shot up into the sky.

Thousands of mountain ridges turned into the spine of a red dragon, and flames like molten gold flowed between the rugged ravines.

The peaks and valleys seemed like open furnaces, with gushing orange-yellow flames licking the sky and roasting the clouds into billowing caramel-colored silk.

Looking closely, the continuously burning trees are all in the shape of glass, like billions of crystal pillars that contain raging fire.

The entire forest was covered in scorched earth and filled with flames, which danced an eerie dance on the cracked rock walls.

Bang.

From time to time, a tree in the burning forest would burn to its limit and suddenly explode and disintegrate, making a muffled sound.

At this moment, the flames burst out, forming a tongue of fire ten feet high, rushing straight into the sky and disappearing in an instant.

Waves of heat came towards them, and the firelight reflected on the faces of all the soldiers in the Third General Battalion.

Everyone was stunned and speechless.

"This is the Ten Mile Burning Forest." Liu Er sighed.

Guan Hong stroked his beard and said, "How magnificent."

Zhang Hei: “Great place!”

Ning Zhuo reminded: "In order to avoid more trouble, we should immediately organize the army and prepare for the attack."

Liu Er readily followed the advice and immediately ordered the entire army to rest.

The soldiers had clear division of labor. Some were on guard outside, while others were eating and drinking inside, sitting on the ground to relieve fatigue, wipe their weapons, and maintain their spirits.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

This scene was seen by Luo Chen and others.

Luo Chen is a Nascent Soul cultivator and the forest chief of the Ten-Li Burning Forest. He frowned at this moment: "Although the Three Generals' Battalion is a newly-established army, after a few battles, it has lost almost all of its immaturity."

One of his Jindan deputies, Fairy Yanliu, sighed, "Who could have thought that the two Zhu countries would suddenly send a team specifically to our place."

"what to do?"

"In a hurry, I could only gather some treasures that were easy to carry and leave."

Luo Chen looked at another Jindan deputy: "The Fire Crown Divine Cedar cannot be moved, and the Vermillion Bird Incense Burner is the core of the formation, so we have to take the Wood Fire."

"Yan Jin, have you found it?"

The old man shook his head and said with his spiritual sense: "Sir, the fire in the wood has been wandering in the Ten Mile Burning Forest. In a short period of time, unless you are extremely lucky, you will encounter it. Otherwise, you have to activate the formation and eliminate and search it inch by inch."

Fairy Yanliu looked grim: "Sir, have you sent a letter for help?"

Luo Chen nodded, then shook his head: "According to the current situation, reinforcements are hard to come by."

Fairy Yanliu looked at Yan Jin and said, "If the three of us evacuate directly, we will not be able to explain to the Dragon King Temple and other forces!"

"But if we can leave with the legitimate reason of protecting the fire in the wood and preventing the enemy from snatching the fire, we will have a good life."

"So, we must find the fire in the wood!"

Yan Jin nodded, gritted his teeth, and said solemnly: "I will try my best."

Luo Chen comforted him, "Relax a little."

"My ten-mile burning forest's heavy defenses are enough to hold off the enemy for ten days or half a month."

"The highest level of cultivation of the generals in the three camps is only the Golden Core."

"Of course, the sooner we find the Wood Fire, the safer it will be for us to leave."

At this time, Liu, Guan, Zhang and Ning also talked about the fire in the wood.

"The Thousand Peaks Forest is all giant tree mountains, and there are no fire veins. The Ten Mile Burning Forest is a place for refining weapons created by the Dragon King Temple and surrounding forces at a huge cost."

"Because it is led by the Dragon King, we use human fire, which is the fire of wood. This fire is one of the three samadhis and is very precious."

"If we obtain it, we can combine it with the fire in the stone and the fire in the sky in the future, and then we can condense the Samadhi True Fire!"

"The fire is good, but I'm afraid it's too late for us."

"No. According to the structure of the Ten Mile Burning Forest, the fire in the wood must be left in the blazing flames, following the power of human heart changes and the way of incense and gods."

"So, it's not easy to find a tiny spark in the vast sea of ​​fire! But there is still hope."

The four of them discussed this and became even more excited.

Although Ning Zhuo has obtained the ten-thousand-year-old fire essence, there is an essential difference between the fire essence and the fire seed.

He just lacked a kind of fire that could be used to refine instruments and elixirs. This would be of great convenience to him in refining mechanical objects in the future.

When the three generals saw that the soldiers had finished resting, they immediately reorganized their troops and launched a direct attack on Shili Fenlin.

The defensive formation of Fen Lin had already been activated. At this moment, the flames were raging, and melting gold and forging iron was no problem at all.

In the past, the three generals could only sigh in despair. But now, they are different from the past, with sufficient financial resources and Zhao Xi's background, and the soldiers are fully equipped.

They all took pills and applied frost talismans.

The entire army of more than 600 people (including many remnants) were suddenly covered in armor and became white.

"March!" Liu Er organized a triangular arrow formation and led the army into the sea of ​​fire.

Endless tongues of fire entangled the soldiers, but they could only lick the ice and frost and would not endanger their lives in a short period of time.

Squeak, squeak, squeak…

The army advanced a mile when swarms of rats came from all directions.

Fire velvet rat! Ning Zhuo was very familiar with this monster, because there were a large number of fire velvet rats breeding in Huoshi Mountain.

The fire mice in Huoshi Mountain are often very large, can swim in the magma, and prey on birds. The fire mice in Shili Fenlin are smaller in size, but there are many of them.

It was the first time that Ning Zhuo saw such a large group of rats.

Dense and stacked rats, like a surging tide, attacked the three generals' camp.

All the soldiers were already ready for battle.

Out of caution, Liu Er raised the Xuanhuang Sword in his hand and activated the military tactics contained in the sword to defend the territory and provide protection for the entire army.

Guan Hong is better at dealing with individual strong men, while Zhang Hei's military tactics are more suitable for dealing with the current situation.

Art of War - The army is approaching! The strength of the three generals' camps was suddenly reduced by 40%, and they were transformed into black water soldiers.

The soldiers remained silent, raised their weapons which were also condensed from black water, and charged back towards the rats.

Ning Zhuo's eyes moved slightly, and he keenly discovered that the weapons held by the Black Water soldiers this time were no longer the unified spears as before, but included common weapons such as axes, hooks, spears, swords, etc.

Ning Zhuo thought: "It seems that Zhang Hei has experienced many battles and has a lot of understanding of the way of the military."

The Blackwater soldiers were in large numbers and collided directly with the scarlet rat group.

The soldiers were like rocks, standing still.

The losses among rats are also increasing.

Although the number of Black Water soldiers had been reduced, they were obviously more resilient than the rat group. Each Black Water soldier could kill at least hundreds of Fire Rats before his demise.

Fairy Yanliu hid behind the scenes, using the formation in the Burning Forest to control the rat swarm.

Seeing that the Black Water soldiers were showing signs of counterattacking, she took decisive action and dispatched other monsters.

Then they saw countless red mayflies mixed in the flames, like bright stars, shining black and red, covering the Black Water soldiers.

The Black Water soldiers were attacked from both sides by a swarm of rats and a swarm of red mayflies, and they were immediately exhausted, with the rate of casualties increasing rapidly.

The troops were gradually pushed forward. Zhang Hei took a deep breath and used his military tactics again to lead the army forward.

The military strength that had just been restored was severely depleted again and transformed into new strength and injected into the front line.

The effect was immediate, and the troops were quickly pushed back! Seeing this, Fairy Liu Yan took the initiative to withdraw her troops.
