One month after Wen Zhenru came to the Zhutian World, Tota Heavenly King did not waste any more effort and marched to Yidingzhou, but hundreds of thousands of heavenly soldiers were blocked outside Yidingzhou.
In an extremely short period of time, Yudou Heavenly Court arranged a 'Ring Yidingzhou' defense circle. All the large formations within this defense circle were blessed by destiny, and the heavenly soldiers tried many methods but could not break the defense of the formation.
The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King led the heavenly generals around the defensive circle, then took out his own sword of destiny and tried to slash at the defensive formation of the Jade Dou Heavenly Court.
The result was obvious. The Heavenly King Tota's Sword of Destiny was shaken back, while the defensive formation of Yudou Heavenly Court remained motionless.
After catching the repulsed Heavenly Sword, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King's expression was slightly serious. He said to those around him, "The Heavenly Sword of the Jade Dou False Court has a very strong destiny. It is dozens of times stronger than my own Heavenly Sword. It seems that it will be difficult to break through the Jade Dou False Court."
General Gu Yuanwu asked, "Heavenly King, do you want to ask for help from Heaven?"
The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King glanced at Gu Yuanwu and said, "Let's go back and discuss it first. It's just that the Heavenly Court may not be able to send many reinforcements."
Having said that, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King asked Gu Yuanwu, "How many heavenly soldiers have you gathered since we entered Beishubu Continent?"
Gu Yuanwu looked a little strange when he heard this, and replied, "There are only a little over 50,000 of us. In the previous battle at Feishiyuan, over 10,000 of our Heavenly Soldiers died. This time, including the Heavenly Soldiers newly gathered from Beishu Continent, there are a total of 350,000."
The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King frowned and said, "Only 50,000 people? Isn't that a bit off?"
Gu Yuanwu said, "Beishubu Continent previously had over 200,000 Heavenly Soldiers. After the Yudou Fake Court rebelled, over 30,000 of them died in battle against them, and another 70,000 to 80,000 fled to Xishubu Continent and Dongshubu Continent. Of the 80,000 to 90,000 remaining in Beishubu Continent, over 30,000 are continuing to fight the Yudou Fake Court, while the remaining 50,000 or so are hiding in Beishubu Continent, waiting for an opportunity to strike. The three people, Yuan Bihai, Sun Zhenqing, and Huan Xi, who shouted 'Our army is defeated' in Di Ming's army last time, were undercover agents sent into the Yudou Fake Court by a Jiedushi who continued to fight the Yudou Fake Court."
The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King nodded and said, "Then the 50,000 people we have newly gathered are the former Heavenly Army Jiedushi who are hiding in various places in Beishubu Continent. And those missing people are the Jiedushi and the Heavenly Army they led who have been continuously fighting against the Yudou Fake Court?"
"Yes." Gu Yuanwu nodded and said, "They all sent messengers here, saying they would obey your orders, Heavenly King. However, their current circumstances are special and they cannot be integrated into the Heavenly Army led by you in a short period of time."
The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King frowned slightly, "Special situation? What special situation?"
Gu Yuan Wudao: "Actually, Heavenly King, I think it's better to let these Jiedushi stay outside. After we came to the Zhutian World, we integrated so many Heavenly Soldiers and Jiedushi, and then there were so many more Heavenly Generals. These Jiedushi are all above the third rank, and can no longer be regarded as ordinary Heavenly Soldiers. The number of Heavenly Generals among our 300,000 Heavenly Soldiers has far exceeded the demand and regulations. It's better to say that we need soldiers rather than generals."
"Moreover, placing these military governors outside is also a way to restrain the enemy's strength and expand the power of the Heavenly Court," said Gu Yuanwu.
The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King nodded and said to Gu Yuanwu, "You are quite right. Let's do this. Have the messengers go back and tell the Jiedushi to send 500 heavenly soldiers to my side to supplement the main army. This way, I won't force them to join the main army."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuanwu immediately bowed and said, "I will obey your orders."
Another month later, the heavenly soldiers sent by the military governors of various places in Beishu Continent arrived. In this way, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King received another 20,000 heavenly soldiers, and the total number of his army reached 370,000.
Then the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King made a decision. Since he could not break through the Heavenly Defense Circle of the Jade Dou Pseudo Court, he would surround them and trap them to death.
The Yudou Pseudo Court was trapped in "Yiding State". The resources produced by a small state could not meet the needs of all the cultivators in the entire Yudou Pseudo Court, so the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King decided to focus on the siege.
The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King ordered the heavenly soldiers to first cut off all the earth veins leading into Yidingzhou from other states on the periphery of Yidingzhou, and gather these earth veins in the four directions of Yidingzhou: east, south, west, and north. Then, three major formations were set up in these four directions relying on the earth veins.
The first major formation is the one closest to Yidingzhou, named "Dutian Shensha Formation". This formation is a killing formation, designed specifically for killing.
However, no heavenly soldiers were dispatched to set up this formation, so it was necessary to construct a formation base and an altar. The four directions would be four great formations of the gods and demons of heaven. The resources consumed in setting up one great formation of the gods and demons of heaven would be more than 20 billion in terms of robbery jades. Four great formations of the gods and demons of heaven in four directions would cost 80 billion robbery jades.
The second largest formation behind the Dutian Shensha Formation is the Thick Earth and Rock Formation. Although the Thick Earth and Rock Formation is a defensive formation, its killing power is not as strong as the Dutian Shensha Formation.
However, the Thick Earth and Rock Array has a special function, which is to sort out the earth's veins and circulate the earth's energy.
Therefore, the Thick Earth and Rock Array was placed behind the Dutian Shensha Array in order to circulate the earth veins, sort out the earth energy, and then continuously supply and protect the power of the Dutian Shensha Array.
Behind the Thick Earth and Rock Formation is the third major formation. This formation is not a complete killing formation, nor is it a complete defensive formation. Instead, it is a highly comprehensive formation named the 'Three Lights and Three Talents Sumeru Formation'. It is an acquired formation with extremely strong power.
However, the more powerful the formation, the more resources and treasures it consumes when setting it up. A Three Lights and Three Talents Sumeru formation can only consume all the resources and robbery jades stored by the Zhutian Heavenly Realm and the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King.
