Just when Fang Jian arrived at Xingping Pass, the heavenly general Mao Yin stationed at Xingping Pass immediately reported the victory to Fang Jian. The Queen Mother of the West led her army into Shangyuan Prefecture and won consecutive battles within a month. Now they were at the gates of Shangyuan City.
Upon hearing the news, Fang Jian immediately set out for Shangyuan City, but as he entered Shangyuan Prefecture on his Uncut Jade Crane, he heard a clear cry from the Uncut Jade Crane beneath him, and then it quickly descended towards the land.
"Boom!" The Unpolished Jade Crane landed heavily on the ground, with a large number of feathers scattered from its body and flying all over the sky. Fang Jian reacted in time and flew down to avoid falling to the ground with the Unpolished Jade Crane.
Fang Jian took a look at himself and found that his 'Haotian Jinque Jiuxia Fairy Clothes' had a few more scratches on it, but it was not cracked. It should be because he had regular Xuanqi protecting his body.
But the unpolished Jade Crane was in a miserable state. Most of its beautiful feathers were cut off, but fortunately they did not fall off completely, but were cut off in the middle.
Fang Jian looked up and saw that the sky was clear and there was no sign of danger.
But in fact, the moment they entered Shangyuanzhou, countless wind blades in the sky came towards Pu Yu Tianhe and Fang Jian. Pu Yu Tianhe was worthy of being an innate spiritual species, and his reaction was not slow at all.
If it were any other mount, it wouldn't be as simple as just having some feathers shaved off.
At this moment, the unpolished jade crane stood up from the ground. It took a look at its originally beautiful feathers which had now become horrible, and immediately let out a long cry of grief and anger.
At this time, Fang Jian released a divine thought, and with the blessing of a thousand dust forces, sent it into the sky to investigate.
Suddenly, several bright wind blades appeared in the sky, and then the Xuanchen Immortal Light blessed by Fang Jian's spiritual thoughts only lasted for ten breaths before being shattered.
But this was enough. Fang Jian withdrew his divine consciousness and said, "It is the Five Spirits Mysterious Wind."
After saying that, Fang Jian directly summoned the mighty power of 'Dao·Space' and shot out a 'Space Mysterious Qi'. The Space Mysterious Qi went straight up into the sky and then spread out rapidly, covering the entire airspace of more than 100 feet over the land of Shangyuanzhou in an instant.
Then there was a loud bang in the airspace, and then the great power of the mysterious energy of space burst out in an instant. A brief period of "darkness" appeared in the sky a hundred feet above the land of Shangyuanzhou. It was a strange phenomenon that this part of the space was shattered.
After a brief period of darkness, the shattered part of the space was quickly repaired by the power of heaven and earth, but the Five Spirits Mysterious Wind had also disappeared along with the shattered part of the space.
The unpolished jade crane below let out another long cry when it saw this scene, but this time it was no longer filled with anger and sorrow, but with a sense of protest and pleasure.
Fang Jian then flew back onto the Jade Crane's back, patted its head and said, "Let's go."
The unpolished Jade Crane let out a clear cry, then flapped its wings again and soared into the sky, flying thousands of feet high and continuing to fly towards Uehara City.
However, because most of its feathers were cut off by the Five Spirits Mysterious Wind, the speed of the Uncut Jade Sky Crane slowed down a lot, and it took a full three hours to fly to the outside of the Heavenly Army camp, fifty miles east of Shangyuan City.
"Meet the Regent!"
After Fang Jian landed outside the camp, he rode the unpolished jade crane straight into the camp. He took the initiative to show his token, the 'Divine Blue Jade Ruyi', to the heavenly general on duty.
After the heavenly general inspected him, he immediately bowed and paid homage, then welcomed Fang Jian into the camp.
After Fang Jian entered the camp, he saw several huge corpses placed on the training ground. Those corpses were not made of ordinary flesh and blood, but more like solidified earth and rocks.
"What is this?" Fang Jian asked the heavenly general behind him.
Upon hearing this, the general immediately stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Regent, these are 'mountain puppets,' created by the dead energy within the mountains and rivers. As soon as our army entered Shangyuan Prefecture, these mountain puppets attacked the Heavenly Army in droves. But under the command of Jiutian Daojun, we easily killed them."
Fang Jian said, "Mountain puppets have no spirituality and only seek blood and energy to attack living beings. However, after you entered Shangyuan Prefecture, they attacked in groups. This is enough to prove that these mountain puppets were not naturally generated in the mountains and rivers, but were created by someone who used great power to forcibly condense the dead energy."
The Heavenly General said, "The Regent is wise. The Nine Heavens Dao Lord also said so. The Nine Heavens Dao Lord speculates that these mountain puppets must have been created by the great power of the four kings."
Fang Jian nodded, and then he walked all the way to the central military tent of the Queen Mother of the West. The Queen Mother of the West sat high up, discussing the attack on Shangyuan City with the three spiritual officials Yan'an, Zhu Yun and Luan Xiao below.
When Fang Jian entered the tent, Yan An, Zhu Yun, and Luan Xiao immediately stood up and bowed to Fang Jian, saying, "Greetings to the Regent."
Fang Jian smiled and nodded, then stepped forward and walked to the left of the Queen Mother of the West at the top, where he sat cross-legged. There was a bamboo mat on the ground, and it was quite cool to sit on.
At this time, the celestial general took his leave and left. Fang Jian asked the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens, "When will we attack the city?"
Jiu Tian Xuan Nu said, "After we entered Shangyuan Prefecture, apart from dealing with those mountain puppets, only a small number of troops from the Four Nations coalition engaged us. Their main forces were all stationed in Shangyuan City, so a frontal attack on the city would be difficult."
Fang Jian smiled and said, "I'm here to help you attack the city. Tomorrow, you and I will join forces to attack Shangyuan City. As long as the rulers of the four countries dare to fight, I will be able to capture them alive."
When Jiu Tian Xuan Nu heard this, she was surprised to find that Fang Jian's aura seemed different. "You...you have achieved the Tao fruit of the Pure Realm?"
"Not bad." Fang Jian nodded and smiled.
There was a glint of light in the phoenix eyes of the Queen Mother of the West, and her eyes and face were filled with unconcealable joy.
