Chapter 253: Breaking the Formation
At about noon on that day, the sun had just risen and the morning mist had not yet dissipated, but in Sishui Pass, there were already bursts of orders and shouts of killing that shook the sky.
More than 200,000 troops from the Eight Major Camps and 150,000 troops from the Green Lotus Sect trained together. The scene was truly spectacular.
At this time, Chen Jiu also spread his golden wings and turned into a giant bird and flew over.
He originally wanted to flash over, but Biyun Tianzun and her three sisters said they wanted to see the scenery along the way. He had no choice but to fly with them.
In order to hide their identities, Chen Jiu asked them to put away even those True Lord-level divine birds. Every day they hung out with Luo Li and the others, talking and laughing like sisters. If one did not use divine sense to carefully investigate, one would never be able to tell that they were Heavenly Lords.
At this moment they are chattering non-stop. The new area in the morning is so beautiful, and there are their favorite little animals everywhere. They are so happy.
Sishui Pass is a completely different scene. This majestic pass with a radius of hundreds of miles, plus the hundreds of thousands of troops inside, gives people a feeling of grandeur and majesty.
Yunxiao Tianzun couldn't help but be surprised and said: "Ajiu, your territory is so big, are these all your men? You have so many men!"
My territory is not very small, you have only seen a small piece of it.
In fact, the divine kingdom of Tianzun is extremely large, but it is impossible for it to be filled with people, birds and beasts like the mortal world. It looks a bit monotonous and does not seem very big.
The Sishui Pass is different. Although it is only a hundred miles in radius, there are nearly 400,000 troops stationed inside, and 500,000 to 600,000 civilians. It looks even more spectacular than the fairyland thousands of miles away.
Chen Jiu smiled slightly and said, "These are basically mortals, they are nothing, not as good as the hundreds of demon gods and thousands of demon fairies in Jiuling Mountain ."
Caiyun Tianzun couldn't help but exclaimed: "An army of hundreds of thousands of mortals is also incredible. I heard that most of the True Lords and Tianzun's divine kingdoms thousands of miles away who like to support mortals only have hundreds of thousands of people."
The mortal world is indeed densely populated. In fact, the two capitals and thirteen provinces of the entire Ming Dynasty are only equivalent to a few thousands of miles of divine kingdoms. However, there are hundreds of millions of mortals on this land, so the divine kingdoms of the True Lord and the Heavenly Lord naturally cannot be compared.
Chen Jiu looked at the increasingly crowded streets below and said simply, "Ah Jiao, Qian Qian, Yan Ran, why don't you take Yun Xiao and the others for a walk on the street first, while Ah Li and I go take care of some things."
Upon hearing this , Yunxiao Tianzun immediately clapped his hands and said, "Great, great, we love shopping in the market the most, but unfortunately we have to practice in the God Realm and don't have much time. Now that we are in this mortal world, we must have a good time shopping."
There is no woman who doesn’t like shopping.
Upon hearing this, Chen Jiu directly gave them a box of silver, put them on the street, and then took Luo Li to the large parade ground where the eight battalions were training.
When Yu Dayou and the others saw the master coming, they hurriedly came forward and bowed, saying, "Greetings to the master, greetings to the mistress."
Chen Jiu nodded slightly, and then asked: "Dayou, how is the training going? If the imperial army attacks, will you be able to hold out for a day or two?"
Well, how do I put it?
Yu Dayou thought about it carefully, and then said carefully: "Master, if it is just the imperial army, it should not be a problem for us to defend Sishui Pass, because our number of earthly immortals is almost the same as theirs, and there are also the two young leaders of the Qinglian Sect here, and we have one more true god than them.
However, if the Heavenly Lord and the True Lord you mentioned take action, we can use the magic array and the Ten Thousand Immortals array in the city to resist two or three True Lords, which would be good enough, but we definitely cannot resist the Heavenly Lord."
This is indeed a problem. If Chi Lian Tianzun takes action, the current defenders of Sishui Pass will definitely not be able to withstand it. Even if someone sends a dozen True Lords to attack them, they still won't be able to withstand it.
What should I do?
Jiuling Mountain has to concentrate all its efforts on dealing with Jade Ding Tianzun, Daoxing Tianzun and the seventeen True Lords. In the first one or even two days, Biyun Tianzun and Wuyun True Lord certainly cannot be sent to help. However, Luo Menghong and Hongyun Patriarch can be sent over.
Because True Lord Wuyun and his men were protecting Zhang Wanxia in the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, Luo Menghong and Patriarch Hongyun didn't have to stay there. They could form a Bagua Formation or a Jiugong Formation, and there would be no problem holding off a few True Lords. The only thing to be worried about was Heavenly Lord Chilian taking action.
Chi Lian Tianzun is even a Tianzun who has defeated several masters. Although he relies on supreme treasures, even innate supreme treasures, he has a lot of supreme treasures. What can you do ?
It seems that we have to bluff Chi Lian Tian Zun. As long as Chi Lian Tian Zun doesn't take action in the first two days, that will be enough.
Chen Jiu frowned and pondered for a while, then nodded slightly and said, "Okay, I will ask the leader of the Qinglian Sect and the old ancestor Hongyun to come and take charge. As for the Red Snake Heavenly Venerable, I will come and bluff her first, hoping to make her suspicious."
They were preparing for a great battle, but the imperial army was still moving slowly, as if they were in no hurry at all.
However, no matter how slowly the imperial army advances, it will eventually reach Sishui Pass.
About half a month later, the dark imperial army finally arrived at the plain northwest of Sishui Pass.
Chen Jiu had been waiting on the city wall for a long time. As soon as the imperial court stopped, he extended his spiritual sense and scanned over.
The True Lords around the palace still frowned slightly and said nothing. This time, the Crown Prince Zhu Yijun and Chilian Tianzun quickly appeared on the attic of the palace.
When he saw the two of them hugging each other, he was stunned.
The Crown Prince Zhu Yijun is really ruthless. He is an old monster who is tens of thousands of years old!
Chi Lian Tian Zun couldn't help but snorted coldly: "It's you again, you coward, who are you?"
There was no way. She had just used her spiritual sense to investigate, but her spiritual sense could not reach anything on the city wall. It was obvious that someone had engraved a formation on the city wall to block out spiritual sense.
Chen Jiu still retorted in an old voice: "Chi Lian, I told you not to just talk big. If you have the guts, come into the city and try. I 'll smash your mouth!"
This guy is trying to trick me into coming into the city?
There must be an ambush in the city!
I won't be fooled.
Chi Lian Tian Zun said coldly: "You coward, come out if you have the guts. I will stuff the Qian Kun Circle into your mouth. If I don't burst your mouth, I will consider you a tough guy."
Okay, I'm waiting for you to curse.
Chen Jiu pretended to be angry, raised his palm which was more than ten miles wide, and slapped the imperial army.
Chi Lian Tianzun had no choice but to raise the Eight Treasures Lotus Platform, float into the air, and raise his hand to pat it upwards.
There was no way. The True Lord would definitely not be able to withstand the power of this palm. If she asked her subordinate True Lord to take action, he would probably be slapped and bleed.
With a loud "bang", the energy spread out in all directions, and the troops of the Shenwu Camp were blown down in a circle. Chilian Tianzun was slapped so hard that he fell into the palace with his lotus platform, and a big hole was directly smashed in the roof of the palace.
Upon seeing this, Crown Prince Zhu Yijun quickly rushed into the palace, helped Chi Lian Tianzun up and asked with concern, "Master, are you okay?"
This was when Chen Jiu only used half of his strength, because even if he used all his strength to slap Chi Lian Tian Zun, he could not kill him, and instead it would make people notice something strange. Tong Tian Sect did not have a Tian Zun with such great strength as him, so he had to make Chi Lian Tian Zun think that he was one of the most powerful Tian Zuns in Tong Tian Sect.
Sure enough, Chi Lian Tianzun said solemnly: "This guy is either Duobao Tianzun or Da Chi Jin Peng who has cultivated to Tianzun. He is just a little stronger. It's no big deal. I'm fine."
She said so, but after flying to the attic, she gave an order: "Junior Brother Huofu, take your seven True Lords with you to explore in the next few days to see what's so strange about Sishui Pass."
Okay, the old woman was scared.
Upon seeing this, Chen Jiu quickly flashed back to Jiuling Mountain.
With seven or eight True Lords, Luo Menghong, Yu Dayou and others should be able to hold on with the help of the formation in the city.
Next we have to deal with Jade Ding Tianzun and Daoxing Tianzun first.
At this time, Jiuling Mountain had disguised everything, and even hundreds of monkey demon gods had shrunk back to a height of more than ten feet, pretending to be demon gods.
When Jade Ding Tianzun and Daoxing Tianzun came over, they could see the seven people including Wuyun Zhenjun, and the others seemed to pose no threat.
If they wanted to launch two attacks at the same time, as soon as the imperial army arrived at Sishui Pass, Yuding Tianzun and Daoxing Tianzun should have led the seventeen True Lords to attack.
Sure enough, not long after, a bat soldier flew over and said loudly: "Report, Your Majesty, the twenty or so true gods from the capital are coming here on auspicious clouds."
Okay, I'm waiting for you.
Chen Jiu didn't even send out his spiritual sense, and just let the bat soldiers report along the way.
These guys were really slow. He waited for more than an hour before the huge auspicious cloud floated outside Jiuling Mountain City.
At this time, all the mortals in Jiuling Mountain City were taken in by the old fox fairy into the Wood God Kingdom. The city was empty, without a single person. Only the Jiuling Mountain in the inner city was densely populated with demons and fairies.
Jade Ding Tianzun and Daoxing Tianzun used their spiritual sense to investigate carefully and found seven old acquaintances including Wuyun Zhenjun, but not a single Tianzun from the other Tongtian Sect.
What is going on here?
Jade Ding Tianzun couldn't help but ask, "Wuyun, your Tongtian Sect has sent several Tianzuns to come. Don't hide them. Let them come out."
True Lord Wuyun mocked him, "Don't think we don't know that Heavenly Lord Chi Lian has led his men to attack Sishui Pass, hoping to trick our men back and seize the opportunity to take over Sishui Pass. You must be dreaming."
Did the Tianzun of Tongtian Sect go to resist the eldest senior sister?
Jade Ding Tianzun was still worried, so he quickly released his avatar and rushed to the outside of Sishui Pass. He found Chi Lian Tianzun and asked anxiously, "Big Sister, is the Tianzun of Tongtian Sect at Sishui Pass?"
Chi Lian Tian Zun said unhappily, "Yeah, that guy just slapped me and made my hand swollen. Why don't you break the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation and come to help? It's been more than an hour, what are you doing?"
It turns out he is with Senior Sister, that’s great!
Jade Ding Tianzun immediately retracted his primordial spirit incarnation and said majestically: "Junior Brother Mufu, you take them first to see what's so strange about this Ten Thousand Immortals Formation. Junior Brother Daoxing and I will help you to clear the formation."
Why don’t you go up!
Mufu Zhenjun muttered to himself, then waved his hand and said loudly: "Quickly arrange the Nine Palaces Formation and the Eight Diagrams Formation, follow me."
Soon, the seventeen True Lords formed a Nine Palaces Formation and a Eight Diagrams Formation, and rushed towards the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation one after another.
True Lord Wuyun and others immediately pretended to be slightly panicked and arranged the Seven Star Formation, protecting Zhang Wanxia, who was in charge of the formation, in the middle.
Chen Jiu stood behind Zhang Wanxia without saying a word, his consciousness disguised as that of a first-level True God, just like a rookie.
If Yuding Tianzun and Daoxing Tianzun took a look into his demonic power space, they would definitely be shocked, because at that time there was a soul body more than ten miles tall standing in his demonic power space.
The soul body formed by the entire spiritual consciousness of an ordinary True Lord is at most one or two miles high, while the soul body of a Heavenly Venerable is at most five or six miles high. His spiritual consciousness is more than twice as strong as that of a Heavenly Venerable!
This is also a trick to hide spiritual consciousness. It was taught to him by True Lord Wuyun and others specifically for camouflage. As long as most of the spiritual consciousness is transformed into the body of the soul and hidden in his own kingdom of the gods or demonic power space, no matter how people scan with their spiritual sense, they will think that he has only left that little spiritual consciousness outside.
The spiritual consciousness he left outside was just that of an ordinary first-level True God.
Jade Ding Zhenjun and Daoxing Tianzun had no idea that the seemingly young Little Zhenren was their biggest threat. Right now their attention was focused on Wuyun Zhenjun and his companions and Zhang Wanxia who was in charge of the formation.
