Chronicles of Celestial Origins
Chapter 1661 Ambush
As expected, after the Demon Army captured Ning'an County, they stopped for only a few days before heading towards Weiping County.
After so many years of construction, Weiping County has long been built into layers of iron barrel-like defense positions. Each city and even every pavilion city has corresponding defense fortifications, and each magic circle is connected horizontally.
In addition, Weiping County also has many soldiers and generals at this moment.
All the coalition forces in Ning'an County have retreated here. The entire Weiping County has nearly eight legions, and basically every city has a legion garrisoned.
Daily battle reports flew into Tang Ning's hands like snow flakes. The demon clan has been struggling since they invaded Weiping County. Their total strength is not as large as that of the coalition forces. In addition, they do not understand the formation method. Every time they capture a building, In Tingcheng, the number of casualties far exceeded that of the coalition forces.
After several months of stalemate, the Demon Army failed to capture even the outermost city of Weiping County. At this time, the senior officials of the Demon Army seemed to be angry, and they no longer acted step by step.
The main force of the Chinese army stationed at the rear was dispatched, with a large number of elites as vanguards, and even Mahayana monks taking action personally.
Although the cities in Weiping County were tightly deployed, with defense lines interconnected by magic formations, they could not withstand the offensive of the Mahayana monks.
The demonic army advanced with overwhelming force, and in less than a year, they had already conquered the three surrounding cities.
………
Weiping County, Tianhuo City, in the main hall, Kong Ruiduan was sitting inside, listening to the battle report from the front line.
"The vanguard of the Demon Army has captured the city's second line of defense and is heading towards the city. It is expected that in a month, it will capture the third line of defense and attack the city."
"The commander of the Sixth Army, Jiang Jian, sent someone to report that when the demon army was attacking the second line of defense, some Mahayana monks from the demon army entered the formation. They asked the coalition to send Mahayana monks for reinforcements, otherwise the large formation they currently occupy would not be able to stop them. Live in the vanguard of the Demon Army.”
"The remnants of the second line of defense have merged with the Seventh Army. The number of casualties is not yet known. Inspector Xu Hui of the Seventh Army requests immediate support from the coalition forces."
In the hall, messengers and messengers were constantly coming and going, always reporting on the battle situation on the front line and the movements of the demon army.
At this moment, several figures strode in from outside. The leader was Tang Ning, followed by a group of Mahayana monks.
"Fellow Taoist Tang, why are you here?" Kong Rui was overjoyed when he saw everyone arriving and quickly stood up to greet them.
"I heard that the demonic army has stepped up its offensive and has already rushed to the gates of Tianhuo City. I was worried that you and Daoist friend Zhu would not be able to defeat the demonic army, so I led all my fellow Taoists to help in the battle." After Tangning said that, he waved his hand: "Fellow Taoists, Please take a seat, everyone!”
Everyone took their seats, and Kong Rui just sat down nearby and gave up the seat of honor to Tang Ning.
"Great, I'm about to send someone to report to fellow Taoists. The demon army's offensive is very fierce. Without support, I'm afraid we won't be able to defend this city."
Kong Rui's previously frowning brows had now relaxed. He was so worried that he didn't know what to do. He was already prepared in his heart. If Tang Ning didn't send reinforcements, he would abandon the city and return to Weiping County when the demonic army reached the city. .
"Where is Fellow Daoist Zhu? Where are you now?"
"The demon army will attack this city soon. He went to the city to monitor the deployment of the defense team."
"The demon army is eager to advance, so we decided to catch them off guard in Tianhuo City. The goal is to annihilate the two Mahayana demons in the vanguard of the demon army and give them a heavy blow."
"Okay. It should have been like this a long time ago." Kong Rui slapped the table and said: "The demons are too arrogant. They regard the coalition forces as nothing. The two Mahayana monsters who lead the vanguard of the demon army are doing whatever they want. Our first and second lines of defense It’s all because he personally entered the battle, so he couldn’t resist.”
"Where is the vanguard of the Demon Army now?"
"We are close to the city's third line of defense, heading towards the original Qingting."
"Now that we are here, we don't have to wait for the demons to attack Tianhuo City. We will go to the original Qingting and kill the Mahayana demons who are leading the elite vanguard of the demon army there."
"It's better this way. If the demon army approaches the city, they may still be wary of the city wall covered by this high-level formation, and dare not attack by force, or seek support from the rear. If we go to Yuan Qingting to ambush, they will definitely not expect it, and they will definitely be able to kill They were caught off guard." Kong Rui immediately agreed and looked at Feng Jingxing and Gan Yuan: "Aren't the two Taoists stationed in Huaxing City? Why are they here? Is Huaxing City already lost?"
Feng Jingxing replied: "We received a message from fellow Taoist Tang, asking us to leave Huaxing City alone for the time being and come here to help you defend Tianhuo City."
"The war in Huaxing City is not serious. There are no Mahayana-level monsters personally entering the battle to attack the city. The troops stationed by the coalition forces are enough to resist. I speculate that the demon army should mainly attack Tianhuo City, so Daoyou Feng and Daoyou Gan Called to defend this city." Tangning explained that he had learned the specific plan of the demon army through the capture of a fusion-level monster, so he made such an arrangement.
………
In the original Qingting, a huge defensive light curtain enveloped the area thousands of miles in radius.
In the distance, groups of demonic armies were approaching. Following the leader's order, groups of demonic armies surrounded the entire light curtain.
All kinds of spells bloomed like a hundred flowers. The demon army surrounding the formation used their magical powers to attack the defensive light curtain. Although they did not understand the mystery of the formation, they could defeat the formation with ten skills at once and with brute force. At most it just takes a little more time.
This has always been the case, and this time is no exception.
As time went by, the runes on the defensive light curtain shattered one by one. Under the attacks of many high-level demon monks, the light curtain gradually twisted and deformed, and finally shattered like a water curtain.
As soon as the light curtain disappeared, gray smoke billowed out from inside, covering the whole world in an instant.
The demon army had been attacking cities and strongholds all the way, and this was expected.
After breaking through the outer defensive light curtain, everyone retreated to the original team.
The next moment, the two leading Mahayana monsters led a group of combined monsters and went straight into the gray smoke.
In the hall of the light curtain, Tang Ning and others had observed all this through the formation. Seeing that the two Mahayana monsters led a dozen combined monsters into the formation, he stood up suddenly: "Everyone, the opportunity cannot be missed, let's enter the formation together."
Everyone stood up, left the hall, came to the formation, passed through a huge light gate, and entered the internal space of the formation.
At that time, the two Mahayana monsters led a dozen combined monsters to attack randomly without any rules. The entire internal space of the formation was shaking violently under their headless fly-like attacks, and it seemed that it would break at any time.
The two Mahayana monsters, one was more than ten feet tall, with muscles all over his body, and looked similar to humans, with dark red pupils and protruding huge teeth, looking very ferocious.
The other one was the same size as an ordinary human cultivator, with purple-red skin, two extremely pointed ears, and a mouse-like appearance, with red eyes.
Both were in the early Mahayana stage. Tang Ning entered the magic circle and took the lead, rushing straight to the Mahayana monster that looked like a mouse.
Seeing a late Mahayana cultivator coming like a tiger, the monsters all changed their expressions, and more than a dozen combined monsters scattered.
Tang Ning's figure flashed, and soon he arrived in front of the rat-brained monster.
The monster let out a long roar, and two red blood-red lights stared in his eyes.
Tang Ning put his hands together, and countless black lights escaped from his body, forming a huge bell-like shape, and the dazzling black light covered the entire space.
The giant bell turned from virtual to real, and the moment it solidified, the entire space was immediately frozen.
The two red rays of light shot out from the eyes of the rat-headed Mahayana monster were frozen in place, like a mural.
With a light click, the black pointer on the giant bell began to jump, turning clockwise from twelve o'clock. The hour hand ticked, jumping from twelve o'clock to one o'clock.
When the pointer turned a circle, it returned to twelve o'clock.
The entire space collapsed, and the two red rays of light shattered like ice sculptures.
The rat-headed monster had a horrified look on his face and his eyes were full of fear. At the moment when the two rays of light shot out of his eyes shattered, a crack appeared in his eye sockets, and then cracks appeared all over his body.
Countless black rays of light shot out from his body, and the rat-headed man opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to roar or howl, but he couldn't make any sound.
The next moment, his body broke into pieces, and fell down into many pieces of flesh and blood.
The fight between the two, especially the magical power used by Tang Ning, caused the already shaky space inside the formation to collapse immediately.
It was like a huge curtain was cut open, revealing the true face behind the curtain.
The formation was shattered, the formation flags standing around were broken, and even the formation altar had countless cracks.
The independent space of the formation no longer existed, and the barrier inside and outside the formation was lost. The gray mist covering the sky and the earth dissipated at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Tang Ning flashed and came to the body of the rat-headed monster, and took out the glittering magic crystal in its skull. With his current strength, killing a Mahayana early stage monster cannot be said to be effortless, but at least it is easy.
In front of him, this Mahayana early stage monster had no power to resist at all.
At this time, another Mahayana monster and more than a dozen combined monsters had already fled, and Yao Yuanqing and others also chased them.
Tang Ning quickly put away the magic crystal and chased after the monster. His figure flashed and soon he caught up with Yao Yuanqing and others.
At this moment, several figures rushed over from a distance. When they looked closely, their faces changed drastically.
The figures that rushed over were none other than other Mahayana monsters. The leader was more than ten feet tall, with a blood-red complexion, a red face and fangs, and a long white horn in front of his forehead. He was a late Mahayana cultivator.
"It's a Mahayana cultivator from the demon army. They had already calculated that we would design an ambush and deliberately lured us to leave the Weiping County formation and fight with them in the field." Yao Yuanqing looked ugly and his voice was dull.
