Chapter 699 The Second Line of Defense (2)

Yuan You pondered: "How big is the scale of that formation?"

The man replied: "In terms of scale, it is no smaller than the outside of the city. It is about ten thousand miles in length and width, and covers more than a thousand miles in front and back."

"Fellow Taoists, let me go and take a look!" Yuan You said, and several people left the warship in a flash of light, and not long after, they arrived at the frontline command camp of the Third Army.

The army of demonic beasts stood in front of them in neat formations.

Warships and chariots, large and small, were spread out in formation, spanning more than a thousand miles, surrounding the huge thunder-arc-flashing thunder-travel ship.

Several people arrived at the thundering catamaran commanded by the front line. As soon as the light disappeared, two men came towards them. One had a big face and big ears, and the other had a tiger body and a wolf waist. Both of them were high-ranking officials of the Third Army of Mubei Allied Forces.

"Fellow Daoist Yuanyou, you are here." The big-eared man on the other side said: "Xuanmen has set up a defensive formation here, and the monks who fled have entered the restricted area. We chased here and did not dare to easily Enter the formation.”

Yuanyou stood on the bow of the ship, looking at the four clouds of gray fog in front of him, covering a thousand miles in radius. However, the sky where everyone was standing was clear and the sun was shining brightly. Compared with the area covered by the formation, the difference was clear and clear.

He frowned slightly: "Friend Chisong, can you tell what formation this is?"

"You can't see it yet, let me try it first." Chisong said, and in a flash, he came to the first formation.

He flipped his hand, took out a green and red ring, and threw it upwards. The ring swelled in the wind and became a thousand feet in size. There was only a flash of red light, and the ring shot out a huge red cylinder of light that disappeared into the gray. In the mist.

Wherever the light of the red cylinder passed, the smoke was instantly washed away, and the gray smoke in a radius of thousands of miles surged like boiling water.

The ring burst into light, trembling slightly, and the crimson light pillar turned into a huge pillar of fire in a blink of an eye.

Instead of dispersing, the gray mist became thicker and thicker. Together with the surrounding gray mist, it surged towards the area illuminated by the red light. As the gray mist surged, it seemed to be chewing and devouring the red pillar of fire.

Not long after, the red fire pillar that shot into the gray mist disappeared, as if it had been swallowed by the gray mist.

Chisong frowned slightly, and looked away from the ring. The ring turned in a circle, and the cyan light flashed, and a huge cyan cylinder of light shot out from the inside and disappeared into the gray smoke.

The cyan light turned into ice crystals, and the gray mist swallowed them up.

Chi Song made a move with his hand, and the ring shot back, he put it away, his body flashed, and he returned to the Lei Zi boat.

"How is it? Can you tell what kind of formation this is?" Yuan You asked.

Chisong said: "As I expected, this should be the Yin-Yang inverted water-moon formation, which is a great illusion formation. Xuanmen also deployed such formations during the time of Mu Bei. This formation can absorb all forms of spiritual energy. For his own use, and then backfires on the monks."

"If the formation breaker sticks to his true intentions and is not fooled by illusions, he will not be attacked. All his attack methods are derived from the spells performed by the monks themselves."

"If people who are not familiar with this formation rush in and are deceived by illusions, they will inevitably kill each other. The more people there are, the more chaotic it will be. In the former case, we cannot understand this formation, so we will suffer a big loss."

Yuan You nodded and said: "Since Fellow Taoist Chisong understands this formation, I think he will be able to break it!"

Chisong said: "It is not difficult to break this formation, but there must be at least eight people, and people must know the formation method, otherwise it will become more and more chaotic."

Yuan You said: "This is simple. You can choose from all the monks in the entire legion. You can always find eight people who are proficient in formations."

"In addition, I hope that someone can help us and protect the Dharma for us. I predict that Xuanmen will attack us when we break the formation. If there is no one to protect us, we may be in danger. The Dharma protector does not need too much If there are too many, there will be chaos, but it must be cultivated to a high level.”

"Okay, please help all fellow Taoists to protect the formation-breaking monks from Xuanmen attacks."

"Yes." Several people responded one after another.

"Fellow Taoist Chisong, do you have any other requests?"

Chisong shook his head.

"Pass me an order to have all the monks above the column manager who are well versed in formations gather here."

"Yes." A man took the order and fled into the light.

Not long after, more than ten rays of light came to Lei Zi's boat one after another.

Chisong casually asked everyone about the formation, which was considered a test, and then selected eight people among a dozen people.

Including the monks who were protecting the law, a total of twenty people escaped into the gray fog in the sky.

A few people were out of sight, and suddenly the sound of ghosts crying and wolf howling became louder, and they saw dozens of huge ghosts with struggling faces attacking everyone around them.

"Don't do anything." Chisong shouted softly, and saw a huge crimson round shield condensed, wrapping everyone inside.

The ghosts and monsters surging around screamed and attacked. As soon as they touched the red shield, they immediately shattered and turned into gray mist and disappeared.

"Fellow Taoists, please listen to me. No matter what situation you encounter, do not attack rashly. If there is an emergency, just protect yourself." Chisong said, turning his hands and taking out a glazed jade bottle. Throw it upward.

The jade bottle swelled in the wind, emitting a light blue light, spinning in mid-air, and slowly moving forward.

After walking for about dozens of miles, there was a sudden loud bang, and an arrow bursting with red light shot out and hit the glazed jade bottle that was rotating and detected.

In an instant, the glass bottle cracked and fell into pieces.

"Friend Chisong, what's going on? Didn't you say that this formation does not have the means to attack? Why was your glazed jade cup shattered? Where did this arrow come from? Is there an ambush?" One or two The man with gray hair on his temples asked in confusion when he saw this.

Chisong looked a little ugly and explained: "This formation does not have any attack methods, but as I said before, it can absorb all forms of spiritual power and turn it into its own use."

"Xuanmen must have left enough attack methods in the formation before, such as the attributes of talismans and magical powers. The formation has absorbed the methods left behind and turned them into its own use. Naturally, it can be controlled and displayed."

"If Xuanmen sends people to attack us, how should we respond? Should we fight back or should we just defend without attacking?"

"Of course you have to fight back."

"If we fight back, won't our spiritual power be absorbed by the formation? Will it come back to bite us in the future?"

"The formation can only absorb a part of the spiritual power and has a saturation limit. With our cultivation level, we don't have to pay too much attention to its attack methods. We just need to be careful not to be fooled by the illusory formation and attack ourselves." Chisong said, turning another page in his hand. A blood-colored jade bead appeared, emitting red light and rotating around the circumference.

"I would like to ask all fellow Taoists to protect me, with me as the center, occupying eight positions within a radius of ten miles, to prevent the Xuanmen monks from launching an array attack to destroy my Blood Soul Pearl."

Several people flashed and took up the surrounding position. Chisong muttered words. The blood beads swelled bigger and bigger, and there was a surge inside, as if something was about to break out of the beads.

He just heard him give a soft drink and pointed at the blood bead. Inside, a round and huddled baby squeezed out the blood bead, as if it was curiously born from the mother's womb.

The blood baby slowly stretched out his arms, opened his blood-red eyes, and saw that he opened his mouth and shot out hundreds of dense blood-colored threads, flying and circling in the air.

The blood baby rose into the air, spitting out many blood-colored threads flying from his mouth, and everyone surrounded him and moved with him.

Half an hour later, the blood-colored threads spitting out of the blood baby's mouth suddenly stopped and then shot out towards a certain space. There was only a crisp sound, like the sound of the ground cracking.

The bloody thread crazily drilled into that space, and a black hole the size of a pinhole appeared. Blood threads passed through the black hole and squeezed to both sides. The black hole was stretched bigger and bigger. As time went by, a black hole the size of a millstone floated in In front of everyone.

Chisong took out a formation flag in his hand and inserted it under the black hole.

"Fellow Taoist Chisong, is this black hole the passage connecting their formation altar?" asked one or two gray-haired men.

"Yes, but I guess this is just the passage for one of the positions."

"Then can we pass through this passage to reach their camp and destroy their formation?"

Chisong shook his head and said: "This kind of space channel is very unstable. As soon as outsiders attack, it will collapse immediately, which will cause a large area of ​​space to be annihilated."

The blood baby spat out flying blood-red threads and continued to move forward, while everyone slowly walked around it.

………………

Above the valley, many warships and chariots were displayed in the sky. Duan Zhenyu stood on the bow of the majestic Lei Zi ship, looking at the billowing gray fog and frowning.

A ray of light shot out from a distance, and a man with a swallow's chin and a tiger's beard appeared. The ray of light fell in front of Duan Zhenyu, and he bowed and said, "Uncle Master, there are twenty high-level monks in Mubei Demon." Enter the ban and break the formation."

Duan Zhenyu nodded slightly: "You go first!"

"Yes." The man responded and left.

"The demons of Mubei are pressing forward step by step. I don't know how long it will take for reinforcements from other islands to arrive. Now the entire island is occupied by demons, and we have become a trapped beast. For now, the only way is to wait for reinforcements. Fellow Taoists, it's worth it. This is a life-or-death plan, if we don't fight to the death, both you and I will die here," Duan Zhenyu said, looking back at the people behind him.

"Everything depends on the orders of fellow Taoist Duan."

"Since Duan Daoyou is the head coach of our headquarters, no one dares to disobey orders."

Several people expressed their opinions one after another.

"Since all fellow Taoists have this determination, follow me into the formation and fight the demons to the death. There is no other way. Pass my order and summon all the column managers here."

"Yes." A man responded, turning into light and disappearing.

About a quarter of an hour later, dozens of figures gathered on the deck of the Leizi ship.

Duan Zhenyu stood in front of everyone, pointed to the gray smoke in front of him and said: "You have all seen that the demon army has surrounded the entire island and wants to eat us in one go. After they broke through the city wall, they did not rush to pursue it. Instead, we are advancing step by step, with the purpose of completely annihilating the army stationed on the island, leaving no one alive."

"Now the demon has attacked the formation. If the formation is broken and the jade and stone are all destroyed, you and I will die without a burial place. All you can do is kill the enemy with all your strength and fight to the death, and wait for the reinforcements to arrive before you can have a chance of survival. ”

"Now the demon has entered the battle. At this critical moment of life and death, we all need to work together. If you are willing to follow me into the battle to kill the enemy, please raise your left arm."

When everyone heard this, they all raised their left arms high.

"Since you all are willing to join me in the battle to slay demons, you must do your best to fight the enemy to the last breath. Anyone who flees without being defeated and disrupts the morale of our army, I swear on my personal honor, no matter how high the person is. No matter how powerful the person behind him is, Duan will definitely take his head and hang it on the flagpole of this ship as a warning. "

Duan Zhenyu shouted loudly, his sharp eyes scanning every face.

Everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to look directly, and praised: "I will obey the order of my uncle (senior).

"In this battle with the enemy, either the enemy will die or I will die. Anyone who retreats without my orders without my orders will be killed without mercy."

Everyone's hearts trembled and they said yes.

As soon as he finished speaking, gray mist surged, and a huge black hole appeared in the air.

Duan Zhenyu said: "The demon has found one of our formation passages, and may break out of the formation at any time. Without further ado, you can return to the headquarters as soon as possible, gather all the men, and join the transfer ship with me to enter the formation and kill the demon. "

"Yes." Everyone responded, and everyone turned into light and left.

………………

Tang Ning was sitting cross-legged, refining his qi and recovering his depleted spiritual energy, when he suddenly heard loud rumblings all around him. He opened his eyes and saw many warships and chariots rising into the sky.

The two Heavenly Spirit Ships in the fifth column burst into light and headed straight towards the north. Everyone on the deck looked at each other, not knowing why, and looking at each other.

Tang Ning stood up unconsciously. She was very confused as she watched the two Heavenly Spirit Ships getting further and further away.

Now that the enemy is facing the enemy, what does it mean that these two Tianling ships carrying the senior leaders of the column suddenly abandon everyone and go north? Do you want to escape alone?

It's not that he is paranoid. In this situation, everyone is trapped. When life and death are at stake, anything can happen.

To put it bluntly, these cannon fodder with low cultivation levels have now become a burden to the entire team.

If the higher-ups want to break out of the encirclement, they can only do so by abandoning them. If they lead them to break out, they will inevitably be chased and surrounded by monsters.

Therefore, the movement of the Heavenly Spirit Ship immediately attracted everyone's attention.

While everyone was in doubt, the cabin door opened, and dozens of figures walked out, led by a man with gray hair on his temples, big ears, and was dressed in Taixuanzong costume.

"Fellow Taoists, please gather here." A burly man behind him said with a thunderous voice.

Hearing this, everyone flashed and gathered in front of him.

Due to the pursuit of Mubei demons, the Xuanmen team organization was scattered and appeared chaotic.

"You don't need to worry. The reason why the senior members of our column left on the Heavenly Spirit Ship was because they received orders from the legion. They were going there to fight to the death with the demons that broke the formation in Mubei in order to protect the safety of our troops." The leader has gray hair on his temples. , The big-eared man seemed to be aware of everyone's doubts and explained.

"Today, Mubei demon soldiers are outside the battle. Once the formation is broken, we will be destroyed. None of you and I will be spared. For now, we can only stand firm in this formation and wait for reinforcements. Only then can we have a chance of survival. At this time of life and death, you can only Only by working together can we protect ourselves, otherwise we will die without a burial place and a mouth in the belly of the demon. "

"Although there are some fellow Taoists present who are not monks in this department, at this critical moment, how can we differentiate between you and me?"

"In order to facilitate unified command and enhance the combat effectiveness of the headquarters, the team is now being reorganized."

"Li Xiaoyuan, Zhang Yu, Huang Yuan."

As soon as he finished speaking, four men walked out of the team behind him, bowed and said, "Disciple is here."

"You each select new monks who join the headquarters and incorporate them into your team."

"Yes." The three of them responded in unison.

The man said a few words of encouragement, and the group of people filed into the cabin, leaving only Li Xiaoyuan and three other people outside to pick out the monks who had escaped.
