Chapter 539: Heavenly Forging Music
Thousand Peaks Forest.
Edge of the battlefield.
In an uninhabited valley, there is a hidden thatched cottage.
Lin Bufan was sitting on a stool made of wooden stakes in the open space in front of the thatched cottage, sipping tea leisurely and looking at the distant mountains under the clear sky.
There was a ripple in the air, and then Zhu Xuanji's figure penetrated the illusion formation and appeared in front of Lin Bufan.
Lin Bufan was slightly stunned, then put down the cup.
Ever since he was "conscripted" by Zhu Xuanji and brought to the latter's side, the two of them secretly set up several camps.
Here is just one of them.
Lin Bufan likes the scenery here, so he often lives here.
As for Zhu Xuanji, he is like a dragon that is hard to find and rarely stays in these secret camps.
Lin Bufan knew it well: according to the national conditions of the two countries, the South Bean Kingdom must have a close connection with the Qianfeng Forest. Zhu Xuanji was sent here to closely contact the pro-South Bean Kingdom forces in the Qianfeng Forest. In fact, there were people and forces planted by the South Bean Kingdom in the Qianfeng Forest.
The matter of Liangzhu Kingdom building a new army, dispatching Du Tiechuan, and conquering Qianfeng Forest was not a matter of Liangzhu Kingdom from the very beginning, but involved other countries.
When Lin Bufan saw Zhu Xuanji coming to find him, he understood that there was something important and he needed to take care of it.
Sure enough, Zhu Xuanji threw a jade slip to him.
Control objects with spiritual consciousness.
The jade slip floated in front of Lin Bufan and slowly fell into the latter's outstretched palm.
Lin Bufan scanned the area with his spiritual sense, and suddenly revealed a strange look: "I didn't expect that the first thing I would do would be related to this kid Ning Zhuo."
The latest information in the jade slip recorded that Ning Zhuo was leading the army to attack Shili Fenlin.
Zhu Xuanji said: "Ning Zhuo's safety is related to the ownership of Huoshi Xiancheng, so it is of great concern and cannot be lost."
"Fellow Daoist Lin, you may go ahead and provide secret protection. The three general camps are not important. We only need to ensure Ning Zhuo's life and freedom."
Lin Bufan shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This kid doesn't know yet that he has been targeted by the old monster in the stone and the two ghosts of heaven and earth."
"The old monster in the stone is suspected to be at the God-transforming level. He is extremely cunning and his whereabouts are extremely mysterious."
"The Twin Ghosts of Heaven and Earth are powerful warriors of the Soul Devouring Sect, and their reputation spreads far and wide, and they are well-known in all countries. According to Ning Zhuo's current combat power, even with the help of the mechanical army, he will definitely die against the Twin Ghosts of Heaven and Earth!"
"If I were him, I would hide in the front camp obediently."
Having said that, Lin Bufan picked up the cup, took a sip of tea, and sighed, "Alas, this task is not easy to handle."
Zhu Xuanji smiled and said, "The cooperation between the Ning family and your Wanyao Sect is also very close, and I also heard that Miss Lin of your sect has a very close relationship with Ning Zhuo."
"Maybe in the future, you two will still be a family."
Lin Bufan glared at him: "Don't say that!"
"Ning Zhuo is a married man, and he married the heir to a general's mansion. Tsk tsk..."
Lin Bufan looked at Zhu Xuanji and said with a hint of sarcasm: "Come to think of it, ever since Ning Zhuo appeared in Canglin Immortal City, he has repeatedly stated in public that he has an engagement with your Zhu family. Now that he has done this, don't you have any statement from your Zhu family?"
"This kid..." Zhu Xuanji shook his head and laughed.
He did not expose Ning Zhuo's rumors and was not even angry.
This is because he had deeply appreciated Ning Zhuo's forbearance, cunning and ability of disguise in Huoshi Fairy City.
Seeing that he could not get any information, Lin Bufan drank the tea in his cup and stood up: "Let me be frank, no matter if it is the twin ghosts of heaven and earth or the old monster in the stone, I cannot defeat them."
"When necessary, I will give up Ning Zhuo and save myself."
Zhu Xuanji nodded: "Of course."
"If Ning Zhuo dies here, it will be his fate."
"You put your own protection first."
"As for the reward for your action this time and any future actions, just ask Ning Zhuo for it. This guy is now able to support the Three Generals Camp and the Red Flower Camp, and he is extremely rich."
Lin Bufan nodded, immediately stood up, left the secret camp, and rushed to Shili Fenlin.
He disappeared into obscurity, flying at a low altitude, but was trying to figure out every word Zhu Xuanji said, as well as the changes in his expression.
"I thought before that Ning Zhu's marriage to the Zhu family was just his boasting. But Zhu Xuanji didn't deny it just now."
"Also, although Zhu Xuanji said that 'it is destined to end', it makes me feel that he has great confidence in Ning Zhuo!"
"eccentric."
"Although Ning Zhuo is highly talented and has great potential, why does Zhu Xuanji still have so much confidence in him in this situation?"
Near the front-line camp of the two countries.
The two ghosts of heaven and earth lurk in dark corners, as quiet as rocks.
From time to time, the ghosts would return to the two of them and give detailed reports.
"Hmm?" Suddenly, the white-clothed ghost cultivator Tianshuang slightly raised his eyebrows, and immediately sent a telepathic message to the black-clothed ghost cultivator Dihui beside him, "I got the news from the alliance. The three generals suddenly left the camp and went to conquer the Ten Mile Burning Forest."
Di Hui immediately reacted: "Is Ning Zhuo also among them?"
Tian Shuang: "There is no explanation in the intelligence."
When the two ghosts of heaven and earth returned to the front battlefield, they just missed the departure of the three generals' camps.
After all, they were outsiders, and apart from their own personal detection results, the intelligence they obtained was basically second-hand from the alliance. Therefore, there was a delay in time.
Di Hui thought for a moment and said, "If Ning Zhuo stays in the camp, we will have no way to deal with him."
“Now is a good opportunity!”
"Whether he went with the army or not, this opportunity is enough for us to set off and go find out."
Tian Shuang: "I think so too."
"The only concern is that if Ning Zhuo stays in the camp, he will go out alone to harvest ginseng dragon whiskers after we leave. Wouldn't we miss an opportunity?"
Di Hui thought about it and immediately shook his head: "There is a God-level combat force hidden in the Thousand Peaks Forest. The two of us must not be separated at will. Then choose one. I suggest leaving here and heading to the Ten Mile Burning Forest."
"Even if we come up empty-handed, we can still wipe out the three general camps and destroy most of the forces around Ning Zhuo."
But Tian Shuang shook his head: "Not appropriate."
"Ning Zhuo is a very capable guy. He hooked up with Mulan and they became husband and wife."
"If the Three Generals Camp is destroyed by us, Ning Zhuo will most likely join the Red Flower Camp. The Red Flower Camp can form a battle formation, which is much more difficult to deal with than the Three Generals Camp."
Di Hui was stunned for a moment, then reacted: "That's right. What should we do next..."
Before Dihui could finish his words, a message came over.
The two ghosts of heaven and earth noticed it immediately and quickly accepted the message.
"Oh? Someone is interested in the triple treasure we showed you, and wants to join forces to get it!"
"I didn't expect there would be three Nascent Soul cultivators, one of whom is the Red Sleeve Fairy."
The two ghosts of heaven and earth also attach great importance to this female cultivator who possesses the ability to move mountains.
As a result, the balance in their hearts immediately tilted heavily, leaning towards staying here.
After all, if they stayed here, they would have a chance to collect three valuable treasures. Even if they failed to collect the valuable treasures and were expelled by the main forces of the two countries, they would still have a chance to obtain the souls of their companions to create ghosts.
In comparison, Ning Zhuo was only at the foundation-building stage. Even if he had the combat power of a golden elixir and even mastered some strange techniques, he was nothing to worry about in the eyes of the two ghosts of heaven and earth.
The reason why they accepted this sect's mission was that they just happened to be in Qianfeng Forest and it was just a matter of convenience.
Ten miles of burning forest.
The soldiers of the three general camps cheered in unison, and their morale rose by 10%.
The swarms of rats and mayflies retreated voluntarily, allowing them to win the first contact battle and become more confident.
Liu, Guan, Zhang and Ning did not show any sign of complacency.
They were well aware of the intelligence: the groups of fire mice and red mayflies in the Ten-Li Burning Forest were specially raised, but they were not used for defensive operations, but to assist in refining equipment.
Fire rats are scavengers with a wide range of diet. They can not only eat exploded tree bark and roots, but also swallow the debris left over from large-scale refining.
After they die, the indigestible debris remaining in their bodies can be further refined and often produce valuable materials.
When cultivators are refining weapons, they need to carve array patterns or talismans, and they will summon a group of mayflies. Through the control of spiritual consciousness, the mayflies fall on the magic tools or magic treasures and arrange themselves into the shape of talismans or arrays. By sacrificing mayflies one by one, the marks are branded, and the talismans and arrays are quickly formed.
"This is just a test from the enemy. All troops, listen up and keep moving forward!" Liu Er waited until the whole army cheered for a while before he shouted loudly to stop the enemy.
The entire army continued to move forward.
After walking another two miles, the soldiers had to stop.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
The raging flames all around suddenly changed drastically, transforming into walls of fire that surrounded the entire army.
Afterwards, these walls of fire burned higher and higher, connecting the sky and the earth, forming a sky curtain, like a giant red bowl turned upside down, covering the three generals' camps in the bowl.
The soldiers were in a panic and commotion, but they quickly recovered when they saw that Liu, Guan and Zhang were all calm.
Fairy Liu Yan, who was presiding over the magic formation, stood in front of the Suzaku incense burner, and was doing her best to mobilize the power of the formation.
Immediately, a huge pattern of Suzaku appeared on the sky.
The surrounding air temperature rises rapidly.
Waves of flames attacked the three generals' camp, and the ground became hot and countless flames appeared.
The flames quickly grew and turned into a field of fire.
All the members of the three generals' camps were surrounded by a sea of fire, and the frost-white talismans on their bodies were quickly consumed.
Seeing this, Liu Er immediately ordered: "Change to the iron bucket formation!"
Guan Hong and Zhang Hei immediately cooperated and both used their military skills.
Speed is of the essence in war! The soldiers moved very quickly, generally remained calm, and few made mistakes.
Soon, the iron bucket formation was successfully established.
As soon as the battle formation was formed, it immediately provided strong protection to the entire army. The soldiers immediately felt the temperature drop a lot, and the speed at which the frost on their bodies was consumed also slowed down a lot.
Morale was restored.
However, the soldiers could still feel that the temperature around them was still rising slowly, and their protective frost-white talismans were still being consumed, but the speed was more than three times slower than before.
Liu, Guan, Zhang and Ning immediately realized that if they defended for too long, they would lose.
Zhang Hei was impatient in temperament, so he took the initiative to attack, swung the Black Snake Spear again, and used his military tactics to lead his army towards the border.
The Black Water soldiers appeared again, but before they could reach the Red Fire Sky Curtain, they were burned and melted halfway.
Guan Hong waved the Blood Dragon Sword in his hand, releasing a huge sword light, slashing at the sky.
The sky swayed for a while, then quickly stabilized.
Liu Er held the Xuanhuang Sword but did not make any move.
The three generals have their own focus, Guan Hong's attack methods are often restrained and the most concentrated. The current situation is just right for breaking through the surface with a single point.
In comparison, even if Liu Er took action, it might not be so effective. Military strength is precious, and although it can be restored quickly, it consumes the soldiers' combat power, physical strength, etc.
Guan Hong continued to attack, slashing three times in a row, leaving a huge gap in the sky.
Seeing this, Liu Er took advantage of Guan Hong's chance to catch his breath and struck him with another sword.
This sword was just right, breaking through the limit of the sky's endurance and splitting it in half.
The sky immediately disintegrated.
The soldiers cheered again and were able to continue their march.
There is a reason why the Ten-Li Burning Forest is named this way. Its front and back distance is about ten miles.
But the three generals' camps did not need to walk ten miles. They only needed to march five miles to break through to the center area and see the Fire Crown Sacred Cedar.
This sacred tree is the king of trees in the Ten-Li Burning Forest and an iconic giant tree.
The three generals' camps had already traveled three miles, with only the last two miles left.
However, the next journey became much more difficult.
Curtains of fire appeared one after another, covering the three generals' camps and making their movements extremely difficult.
Although Guan Hong was able to cut through the curtain of fire, such frequent attacks also took a huge toll on him.
He was at the Jindan level and was already feeling exhausted, and the rest of the soldiers were even more so.
The closer to the center of the burning forest, the more intense the flames became, the higher the temperature became, and the consumption of the Three Generals' Camp increased rapidly.
Each person replenished their talismans more and more frequently, and most of the soldiers' physical strength was consumed. Even though they had eaten some elixirs and military rations in the middle, their physical strength was still not enough.
When we were almost four miles away, a loud bell rang out suddenly.
The bells vibrated, stirring up a raging flame.
The soldiers' armor, talismans and even weapons all developed cracks and quickly disintegrated.
The situation was critical, and Liu Er quickly used his military tactics to defend the territory and gain crucial time.
Taking advantage of this time, the soldiers hurriedly replenished their talismans, and Ning Zhuo also cast a spell to try to alleviate the predicament.
While resisting the sound of the bell, Ning Zhuo's thoughts raced, a flash of inspiration flashed across his mind like lightning, and he exclaimed, "Could it be the Heavenly Forging Music Score?!"
Zhang Hei: “What?”
Guan Hong also looked confused.
Liu Er's eyes lit up: "Yes, this is the method."
Yan Jin, who specialized in Tiangong Forging Sound Spectrum, was the chief craftsman of Shili Fenlin. At this moment, he stood in front of a huge bronze bell, and every time he swung his fist, he slapped the bronze bell hard, stimulating a mighty sound.
The sound of the bell can forge iron and steel, and the three generals' camps are treated as ore for smelting! The three generals' camps are in trouble, and Liu, Guan, and Zhang are helpless.
Because the sound of the bell was difficult to defend against, no matter how they tried, they could not change the situation of being passive and being beaten.
"Use layers of fire curtains to delay our advance. Then use the sound of bells to kill us." Ning Zhuo looked around and saw that many soldiers were bleeding from their mouths and noses.
This is because their internal organs cannot withstand the sound of the bell and are bleeding heavily.
"The Heavenly Crafts Forging Sound Chart is a weapon refining method that uses the big bell to amplify power. As long as the big bell is destroyed, this move should be able to be resolved."
"According to the intelligence, the forest ranger of the Ten-Li Burning Forest is Nascent Soul cultivator Luo Chen. He has not appeared yet."
"The three general camps march slowly and need to rely on the iron barrel formation to support their defense. Using other battle formations would be tantamount to suicide. Liu, Guan, and Zhang are all only at the Jindan level. Once they leave the iron barrel formation and go to destroy the bell, they will inevitably be attacked by Luo Chen."
"It's time for me to go out."
Ning Zhuo thought of this and turned the mechanism ring.
The ring didn't respond.
He immediately probed his spiritual sense into the storage belt and took out the mechanical dolls one by one.
The machine army is here!
