Shinto rewards

Chapter 548
When a warrior's cultivation reaches the innate level, it is often difficult to judge his true age from his appearance.

Especially after the strength reaches the spiritual state, the lifespan can reach 300 years, but the real age of such a strong person is not calculated according to the proportion of ordinary people's age at all.It involves the martial artist's own preferences, as well as many factors such as psychological age.

Although Ning Zifeng looks only in his 50s, his real age is already 120 years old!

At this age, he basically belongs to the type whose talent has been exhausted, and without other opportunities, it will be difficult to make progress throughout his life.

Seeing an opportunity to advance to the middle stage of Kailing is in front of him, how can Ning Zifeng not be tempted?

What's more, now that the defeat is certain, if they don't surrender, the fate of these remaining troops can only be death, and it will be the kind of annihilation of the entire army!
Therefore, Ning Zifeng insisted that he chose to surrender under the general trend, and made a difficult choice in order to protect the lives of tens of thousands of brothers, not for the opportunity to break through the middle stage of Kailing.

Absolutely so! ……I guess so.

………………

After more than half a month of continuous offensive and defensive battles, both inside and outside of Baishi City were exhausted.

At the very beginning, Baishi City suffered major changes, the city lord practiced martial arts and became obsessed, and the guard was assassinated to death.At this time, the Qiongshan Army seemed to have made an appointment in advance, and sent troops to attack Baishi City.

Baishi City resisted in a hurry, which can be said to be a mess. Fortunately, the instructors of Baishi College took action in time. With the advantage of masters, they barely repelled the first attack of the poor mountain army.

However, even so, the city defense army suffered heavy losses and suffered a great loss in combat effectiveness.

In order to resist the threat from outside the city, several deputy generals of the city defense army have been voting, requesting that Ling Xingcheng, the number one master in the city, be temporarily the supreme commander of this defensive battle, and at the same time send people to ask for help.

They recommended Ling Xingcheng as the commander-in-chief, not to say how much they trust Ling Xingcheng, an academic classroom, but as the number one expert in Baishi City, only Lingxing City can stop Ji Congliang!
As the instructor of Baishi Academy, Ling Xingcheng is not obliged to participate in the city defense battle.Once they feel that the city may not be able to hold, all the tutors of Baishi College can pat their butts and leave, and no one can say anything about others.

But as city defenders, they can't do it!

There are only two paths in front of them, either to live and die with Baishi City, or to be chased to death as a deserter, or even harm their family members, so choose for yourself.

Therefore, they chose Ling Xingcheng as the commander-in-chief. In fact, they just wanted to use this position to trap him and prevent him from leaving easily.

The deputy general of the city defense army was not convinced by Lingxing City, and the reinforcements from Wangcheng and Suzaku Army on the other side had not arrived for a long time, and there was no news that the other side sent reinforcements at all!

It is conceivable how hard this battle was fought.

When the relationship between Lingxing City and these lieutenants is almost perfect, and the entire city defense army can be united as one, there are only less than 10,000 left in the [-]+ army!

If things go on like this, no matter how persistent the city defense army is, Baishi City will undoubtedly be destroyed within ten days.

These are the differences in strength between the two sides, as well as the disadvantages that quickly accumulated in the chaotic situation at the beginning of the war. Unless external forces intervene, it is only a dream to reverse the situation.

Standing on the tower, Ling Xingcheng held on to the dilapidated wall, looking at the tide-like poor mountain army, a flash of determination finally flashed in his eyes, and at the next moment, he suddenly said in a deep voice: "Ji Congliang, you are an open spirit!" The mid-term powerhouses don't feel ashamed to hide in the army formation, but dare to come out and fight my life and death with Lingxing City!?"

Under the urging of the true essence, the voice quickly spread to the entire battlefield in cooperation with the natural force between the heaven and the earth, quickly suppressing the shouts of the soldiers on both sides, and clearly spread it within a radius of ten miles. In one's ear.

As soon as Ling Xingcheng said this, he undoubtedly defeated Ji Congliang's army. No matter what Ji Congliang chose, the situation would be more beneficial to Baishi City.

If he agrees, then the offensive and defensive battle of Baishi City will turn into a life-and-death confrontation between him and Lingxing City.If he wins, Baishi City will no longer have the power to resist, and it will not take ten days, and the city may be destroyed in a short time.If he is defeated, although his Qiongshan army will not be completely wiped out, there is no need to talk about siege without a leader, and the siege of Baishi will be resolved by itself.

If he doesn't agree, it will appear that Ji Congliang is afraid of Lingxing City, which will have an impact on the morale of the two armies. If one goes up and down, it can also prolong the time of defending the city.

As soon as Ling Xingcheng's voice fell, the entire battlefield fell silent at this moment, and the soldiers on both sides were waiting for Ji Congliang's answer.

"Haha..., with just one sentence, you want me to give up my great advantage and fight to the death with you?" After a burst of wild laughter, Ji Congliang's disdainful voice also spread throughout the battlefield.

Ji Congliang refused to fight, which is not surprising at all.Even Ling Xingcheng, who was rejected, was disappointed, and even felt a faint sense of relief.

Facing Ji Congliang, a strong man with the sixth level of spiritual enlightenment, even though Lingxing City had some advantages, it could not be said that it would definitely win.

Before this, the two had had some sporadic fights, and each had a general understanding of each other's strength. If they really put out all means to give it a go, Ling Xingcheng asked himself that he had a [-]% chance of winning.

In the final analysis, Ling Xingcheng and Ji Congliang basically belong to the same level of masters. If they really start fighting, any uncertain factor can directly affect the outcome between them, and even life and death.

Now that the duel is unsuccessful, it would be good to hit the opponent's momentum and improve one's own momentum by the way!
However, what Ling Xingcheng didn't expect was that after Ji Congliang rejected his challenge, he immediately broke out a super shocking news: "Let's forget about the decisive battle. In addition, I am not afraid to tell you, you are looking forward to it." Our reinforcements will never appear!"

"The reason why the city lord of Baishi City went mad, the reason why the commander who defended the city wrongly was assassinated and killed, and the reason why Ji Congliang and my poor mountain army appeared here is actually a conspiracy against Li Chou by the Tianyuan Empire. That's all."

"And your entire Baishi City, and everyone in Baishi City, is just a pawn, a fish in this conspiracy."

"You have been abandoned by the Tianyuan Empire!"

Hearing Ji Congliang's words, Baishicheng was silent for a while, and even Lingxingcheng's hand on the wall uncontrollably added some force, crushing a bluestone brick directly.
