Chapter 628: Enemy at the Gate
Amidst the dense and snow-like and feathery rice ears, a brilliant sword light flew past Li Weiyi and headed straight towards Chu Yutian.
"Bang!"
Li Weiyi pressed his palm down and slapped the tip of the spear to the ground.
Then, a green smoke cloud bridge appeared under his feet, and he retreated more than twenty feet away.
The Purple Sky Thunder Seal and the Golden Sky Thunder Seal flew out from the ancestral field at the same time, circling around his body in the formation of 108 thunder strikes.
The sound of thunder shook the earth, and purple and golden electric earthworms crawled all over the ground.
Chu Yutian had no way to chase Li Weiyi, so he raised his left arm, and a seven-layered circular shield emerged from the Laogong point on his palm, blocking the sword energy flying from afar.
“Boom!”
The phoenix cried and the sound of wheels could be heard.
A gorgeous silver carriage, with surging magical energy, rushed out from the darkness of the ruins and stopped opposite Chu Yutian.
The entire ground was crushed by the frame, leaving many cracks.
Li Weiyi stood in the center of the 108 lightning pillars and saw that the person driving the car behind the phoenix was Zhuang Yue, whom he had not seen for a long time. He didn't know who had swung the sword at Chu Yutian at the most critical moment.
With this sword, Li Weiyi will be more determined in his previous decision.
Chu Yutian still held the nine-foot-long spear in his hand. He looked at Li Weiyi, who was in the center of the lightning, and said, "At that moment just now, your magic energy, strength, and speed increased significantly. Otherwise, even if she attacked you through the air, you would definitely not be able to block or avoid it."
Li Weiyi was seriously injured and held on tightly, "If I were you, I would regret it terribly. You are too confident. If you had used your own most powerful weapon instead of Huangfu Song's spear, I might not have had the chance to break through to that level in my cultivation."
"Do you think I'll regret this and become impatient, giving you an opportunity to take advantage of me?"
Chu Yutian pointed out Li Weiyi's intention and looked at the Luanniao carriage opposite: "Are you going to make an enemy of me?"
"Chu Zhenchuan is too ignorant. She doesn't want to be your enemy, but comes here specially to help me kill you. Because she is my confidante." Li Weiyi introduced in a very formal tone.
Inside the silver carriage, the voice of Daogong Zhenchuan rang out: "You can shut up first! Chu Yutian is in opposition between living beings and undead beings. This is the greatest contradiction in Yingzhou. Daogong will not be like the Demon Kingdom who cannot distinguish between the important and the urgent."
Zhuang Yue was very cold and didn't even look at Li Weiyi.
Wenren Tinghai, Huo Tingye, and several powerful border troops appeared nearby and stood in the distance.
At the top of the city wall, a masked figure in a black robe, with a Yin-Yang Gong suspended above his head, stood proudly and said in a deep voice: "Chu Yutian's life is mine."
Everyone's eyes looked upwards.
Earlier, Jingzhen tried to capture Nangong, but was attacked by Yin Yang Luo and was repelled.
Chu Yutian laughed and said, "Lao Mo, you are the most powerful young master in the Holy Capital. Why are you hiding your head and showing your tail like a virgin? Are you so ashamed to see people?"
The two-meter-tall black-robed figure took off his mask, revealing Mo Duanfeng's thick eyebrows and tiger eyes. His face was resolute, but his eyes were full of bitterness. "I just find it hard to face Nangong and Li Weiyi, and even harder to face Baichuan's body."
"I pride myself on my unparalleled intelligence and exceptional martial arts talent, and the ability to face the Taiyin Cult and the Realm of the Dead. However, upon entering the ancient nation of Suiyuexu, I nearly died at your hands. I lost both my whistle and my sword, and only managed to survive by relying on life-saving methods."
"I was planning to plot against you, and I thought everything was going according to plan. Unexpectedly, my stubbornness led to a split within the Shaoyang Division, giving Jing Zhen an opportunity to exploit, and nearly putting everyone in ruin."
"After I recovered from my injuries, I rushed back to Fanye Valley. Seeing the devastated battlefield and the fallen Shaoyang Guards, I was devastated. Fortunately, the worst outcome wasn't the worst, and most of you managed to break out. Otherwise, I can't imagine whether I could have rekindled my fighting spirit. I might have given up and killed myself!"
Naturally, he was telling these words to Nangong and Li Weiyi, and had nothing to do with anyone else.
The reason why Mo Duanfeng felt such intense pain and guilt was that Taixu Camp was responsible for monitoring the Taiyin Realm, had the most dealings with the Taiyin Sect, and knew the most about Chu Yutian.
Moreover, before setting off, he had the highest cultivation and combat power, and was the de facto leader of the Shaoyang Guard. At that time, Tang Wanzhou had only the second level of cultivation.
He also made the plan.
How could he not bear the greatest responsibility?
Nangong appeared below the battlement where Mo Duanfeng was standing. Her face was pale, yet she remained stunningly beautiful. “I am also responsible. The fault is not solely yours.”
Mo Duanfeng took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, and looked solemnly: "I swore that I would never take off my mask until I killed you. Now that I have taken it off, you will not live to see tomorrow. Chu Yutian, do you dare to fight me to the death?"
"What are the benefits?" Chu Yutian asked.
Mo Duanfeng raised his arm, and the Yin-Yang Gong fell, hovering in his palm: "Don't you want to take this Wan Zi Qi back?"
"Excuse me for being blunt, but with the Ju Gang Dao in hand, you have a 30-40% chance of winning. While the Yin Yang Gong is a Wan Zi weapon and more powerful, your chances of winning against me with it are... at most 20%." Chu Yutian said, "You have to understand that, although we're both at the peak of the Third Realm, my combat power has also improved compared to when I first entered the Ancient Country of Sui Yue Xu."
For those who practice swordsmanship, momentum is the most important thing.
The greater the momentum, the stronger the combat power.
Chu Yutian was definitely wary of Mo Duanfeng's desperate, desperate mentality. At this moment, he wanted to undermine Mo Duanfeng's confidence and make him doubt his own strength.
"There's a problem with Chu Zhen Chuan's algorithm! Don't you see that the situation has quietly changed? You've been surrounded by the Sentinel Army, Daogong, and the Demon Kingdom. This isn't a one-on-one fight, but a group of us fighting you alone. Right, Brother Wenren?"
After Li Weiyi finished speaking, he looked at Wenren Tinghai.
Wenren Tinghai certainly saw that this was a great opportunity to kill Chu Yutian, and with Mo Duanfeng leading the charge, he could definitely take some of the credit and fame.
On the contrary, if he were to take action against Li Weiyi first at this time, Mo Duanfeng would definitely return to Shengjing to spread the news in the future, and the Holy Dynasty would then send diplomatic envoys to put pressure on the Demon Kingdom, and his life as a disciple of the Emperor would be over!
Thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind, and Wenren Tinghai said righteously, "The Taiyin Sect is punishable by all rights, so personal grudges must be put aside."
Chu Yutian laughed out loud, "Wenren Tinghai, if you don't kill Li Weiyi today, you will surely die at his hands. I rarely speak so highly of someone after only meeting him once. That's all I have to say. Everyone, I'll take my leave first!"
Chu Yutian flew into the direction of Wenren Tinghai.
Wenren Tinghai never thought that Chu Yutian would not fight Mo Duanfeng or kill Li Weiyi, but would come towards him. He was extremely speechless and had no choice but to use the Shenyu Furnace.
At the top of the city wall, Mo Duanfeng struck the Yin-Yang Gong and chased down like a shadow.
"Take the knife!"
Li Weiyi threw out the blood pool and Yinhai.
Mo Duanfeng caught the flying silver sword in mid-air. Although it didn't have the sense of blood connection that the Gan Gang sword gave him, it also had the aura of an emperor, and was definitely not an ordinary person. "Thank you."
Chu Yutian was extremely capable, and faced with the original power of the two Wan Zi weapons in front and behind him, he took it as a trivial matter.
He swung out a nine-foot-long spear, pulled out the Shenyu furnace, and caused all kinds of scriptures to explode and force Wenren Tinghai to retreat.
At the same time, soul mist gushed out from the central spring on his back, condensing into a humanoid figure, seemingly transformed into a double-headed, four-armed figure. The figure drew a circle with its hands, forming a Taiyin Seal, which deflected the incoming Yin-Yang Gong and sent it crashing down towards Wenren Tinghai.
"boom!"
“Boom!”
The two instruments, the Chenyu Furnace and the Yin-Yang Gong, fell to the ground in front of Wenren Tinghai one after another.
Flames exploded in all directions and the sound of gongs was deafening.
Wenren Tinghai repeatedly stumbled back and forth, his face covered in dust and dirt, and he felt that he was being beaten by a group of people.
Li Weiyi failed to intercept Chu Yutian because he had already reached his limit.
Seeing Wenren Tinghai being dragged into the trap and Chu Yutian being frightened away, he could no longer suppress the mouthful of blood and spat it into his sleeve. He quickly put away the two purple gold seals and the 108-ray thunder array, and circulated the liquid mana in his divine palace to heal his injuries.
"Turns out he was bluffing."
Still frame standing in the shadows, he went back and forth, flew to the top of the city wall, and attacked Nangong again.
The reason why he chose Nangong instead of the weaker-looking Li Weiyi was because he couldn't judge what the attitude of the Inamiya master was.
"Jing Zheng, you really don't know how to live or die."
Li Weiyi had an idea, and the sound of ice crystals shattering was heard on the top of the city wall.
The four war corpse puppets that absorbed Li Weiyi's blood opened their eyes, turned into awakened corpses, and used the magic energy in their bodies to circulate, breaking through the ice.
They all looked like mummies, with disheveled hair, holding magical weapons, and attacked Jingzhuang together.
Li Weiyi noticed that several powerful soldiers from the Demon Kingdom's border army were surrounding him cautiously. After protecting his injuries with liquid magic power, he shouted loudly, used the Yellow Dragon to ascend to the sky, flew onto the city wall, and killed Jing Zhen.
Zhuang Yue, who was sitting on the Luanniao carriage, snorted, obviously extremely dissatisfied with Li Weiyi for going to rescue Nangong despite being seriously injured.
As soon as Jing Zhen came into contact with the four war corpse puppets, he realized how powerful they were.
The four corpses seemed to have been born with intelligence and had independent fighting will.
“Wow! Wow…”
Li Weiyi also released seven Phoenix-winged Moth Kings, as if they were going to surround and kill Jing Bing.
Jingzhen sent out two long rivers of sword energy, repelling the two war corpse puppets, then quickly jumped off the city wall and fled out of the city.
"Don't chase."
Li Weiyi stopped Nangong who was about to chase him and pointed to the end of the sky: "Look!"
The entire horizon was shrouded in dark clouds and ghostly fog, sweeping across the sky and the earth.
Some of the huge figures were rushing towards Chuncheng at a rapid speed.
The rumbling of iron hooves made the city walls tremble slightly. The roars of the Undead Army's mounts rose one after another, and the loud horns echoed across hundreds of miles of ruins.
The army of the dead is marching towards Chuncheng and is about to arrive at the city gate.
"Jingzhen has rushed over. Will Mo Duanfeng fall into Chu Yutian's trap again? Chu Yutian is a man of insidiousness, even better than his martial arts." Nangong felt that it was difficult to maintain his usual wisdom in such an extreme situation. He looked at Li Weiyi and asked him to make the decision.
"Since the Undead Army has already arrived outside the city, Tang Wanzhou and the others must have returned first."
Li Weiyi looked down at the city wall outside and quickly said to the group of border army masters gathered by the Great Immortal of the Demon Kingdom: "Let's go! In our current state, we will have to fight a fierce battle after entering the city."
Under the city walls, on both sides of the water area that is more than ten miles wide, a large number of dead marquises, led by the four-eared ghost monkey marquis and the golden giant skeleton, gathered, forming a picture of various undead marquises reflected on the water and the shore.
