Guarding the border: I am sanctified in the flesh

Chapter 148 The final battle, the contest between top experts

Not long after.

There was a noisy sound, accompanied by bursts of talking and laughing.

The door curtain was lifted, and Liu Mei was the first to enter the tent, followed by a group of young people, filing in one after another.

There were about twenty people, both men and women, but there were slightly more men.

Lu Fan got up to greet him, "Why are you here?"

"Come on, let me introduce you."

Liu Mei pointed her finger at Lu Fan, looked back at everyone, and said with a smile, "This is the Lu Fan you all want to see."

"They are the core disciples of various sects and families."

Then Liu Mei introduced the people behind him, "This is Song Yi, from the Taoist sect."

"Su Li, from the Palace of Eternal Life."

"Happy School, Lin Lang."

"Xing Yunzong, Zhou Xiao."

"Fengyun Pavilion, Gu Feng."

"Qin Qing, from the Qin family."

"Meng Chang, from the Meng family."

"The Cheng family, Cheng Huai."

"Geng family, Geng Yong."

"The Xiao family, Xiaozhu."

……

Liu Mei patiently introduced everyone to Lu Fan.

Hearing these names, Lu Fan felt a little familiar. He remembered that he had heard the names of these people before.

They are all young talents who have emerged in Dazhou in recent years.

As early as a few years ago, he was already a master of the first rank.

It must be stronger now.

Unexpectedly, Liu Mei was able to bring these people together, it was really not easy.

"Maybe you've heard of them before."

Liu Mei said: "Before you, they were the most outstanding geniuses in Dazhou, like Song Yi, Su Li, and Qin Qing. The three of them have successfully advanced to the Xiantian realm."

"The strength of other people is at least a first-rank high-level."

"There are still a few people who have reached the peak of the first rank, and are only one step away from the Xiantian realm."

"The reason why we got together is to deal with the invading enemy troops."

Speaking of this, Liu Mei smiled, "Okay, let's get to know each other."

"Meet General Lu!"

Everyone clasped their fists together to salute Lu Fan.

"You are welcome."

Lu Fan clasped his fists in return, "I didn't expect you all to get together and fight against foreign enemies together."

"It was Liu Mei who convinced us one by one."

Song Yi said with a smile: "Of course, the most important reason is you, General Lu. It is you who charged into the battle, won consecutive battles, and saved the people of Dazhou from fire and water again and again, which inspired us."

"Yes."

Su Li continued: "General Lu's martial arts are world-class and unparalleled in the world. He is truly a genius born in my Great Zhou. It is because of your appearance that we see hope, so we join in and contribute a little to the people of Great Zhou. .”

"exactly."

Lin Lang sighed: "Even if it's not for the imperial court, but for the people of Dazhou, we can't stand by and watch."

"General Lu is extraordinary in martial arts and strategy. He is a natural commander. I have admired him for a long time. When I saw him today, I really deserved his reputation."

"Especially the last two wars, it's really fun!"

"We all admire General Lu very much."

Everyone was full of praise for Lu Fan.

"Okay, everyone, stop praising me."

Lu Fan shook his head lightly, "I'm really ashamed, I can't afford it."

"The general need not be too modest."

"No amount of praise is enough to highlight General Lu's achievements."

Everyone praised a few more words before giving up.

"By the way, let me tell you something serious."

Liu Mei suddenly took out a token and handed it to Lu Fan, "Look at this."

"Ok?"

Lu Fan took the token and looked at it, only to see the two big characters "Da Qin" engraved on it.

Looking at the back, there are also several large characters engraved: Commander-in-Chief of the Three Armies, Xue Ren.

"Is this the token of Qin?"

Lu Fan guessed: "Qin State Commander Xue Ren was killed by you?"

"Yes."

Liu Mei smiled and said, "We not only killed Xue Ren, but also handed over the remnants of Qin and Qi, and didn't let them escape alive."

"really?"

Lu Fan was overjoyed, "You really brought me a big gift!"

"Actually, it's not just us."

Song Yi explained: "Only our team has more than 500 people. We are afraid that too many people will disturb you, so more than 20 of us came to see you."

"And it's not just our team."

Liu Mei continued: "Like my younger brother Liu Zhi, he gathered disciples from aristocratic families and sects near the capital, almost 500 people, and they also participated in our battle to clear the enemy army."

"That's right, apart from us and Liu Zhi's team, there are dozens of other teams."

Su Li said: "There are aristocratic families and sect children from various states, as well as several major gangs from the Zhou Dynasty, as well as King Qin's army from various prefectures and prefectures, etc. Many forces are gathered near the capital, waiting for opportunities."

"Once we have the opportunity, we will take the shot without hesitation."

Lin Lang interjected: "Otherwise we will hide in the mountains and erase all traces so that the enemy can't find us."

"it is good!"

Lu Fan praised: "You guys did a great job!"

"Having so many forces like you to restrain the enemy will put a lot of pressure on the enemy and make them distracted from dealing with you."

"At the same time, it will also reduce the pressure on the defenders in the capital."

"Just a little."

"I heard that top players from the enemy country are on their way to Da Zhou."

Lu Fan reminded: "You have to be careful, don't run into them, so as not to fall into danger."

"It's okay."

Song Yi didn't care, "To tell you the truth, we practiced a sword formation together when we were free and the power was not bad."

"Oh?"

Lu Fan could guess without even thinking about it, the power of the sword array must be extraordinary.

One must know that a battle formation composed of five hundred soldiers is quite powerful.

A sword formation composed of five hundred first-rank masters, how good is that?
Not to mention, there are still several Innate Realm powerhouses in the sword array.

As long as the sword array is in motion, even he dare not fight head-on.

"I can rest assured that."

Lu Fan was really relieved that these people gathered together were as powerful as those who were born in the nine realms.

At least in Dazhou territory, no one can threaten them.

"We're here to find you, and there's one more thing."

Liu Mei said: "Next time we want to cooperate with you to send troops together. When the time comes when you break the formation, we will clear up the remnants."

"Okay."

Lu Fan thought for a while and said, "Well, you should pay attention to my fireworks signal. When I launch a general attack, I will release the firework signal. Some of you should have seen the signal of the Dragon Shadow Guard?"

"Well, I've seen it before."

Liu Mei nodded, "After receiving the signal, we will unite with other forces to attack together."

"That would be great."

Lu Fan smiled and said, "That's it."

"Row."

Everyone agreed at the same time, and clasped their fists at Lu Fan, "General Lu, we won't bother you, you should practice hard."

"Let's go after dinner."

Lu Fan stayed and said: "Although it is difficult here, we can still afford food."

"After the war is over, we'll have a few drinks with you."

Song Yi smiled and said, "At that time, even if you want to refuse, you won't be able to."

"Then it's a word."

Lu Fan also laughed, "At that time, I will be the host, please come to my house to get together."

"it is good."

"Farewell!"

Everyone turned and left.

Lu Fan sent them out of the tent and watched them go down the mountain before returning to the tent.

Keep practicing!

……

……

ten days later.

night.

Lu Fan meditated and practiced in the tent.

After the Dao Jing was upgraded, his cultivation speed increased a lot.

In addition, he has no distractions these days and concentrates on practicing Taoism, so he enters the realm very quickly.

I don't know how long it took, he opened it, stood up suddenly, and shouted: "Ye Wuchen!"

His senses were sharp now, especially for impending danger.

Coupled with his powerful mental power, even if the danger is several miles away, he cannot be hidden from him.

"coming."

Ye Wuchen instantly appeared in the tent.

"A strong enemy is coming, and I suspect it is the top expert of the enemy country."

While speaking, Lu Fan had already put on his armor, bow and arrow on his back, a waist knife, and a cold iron gun.

"I'll go down the mountain to intercept them. You arrange a battle formation on the mountain and defend with all your strength. Without my order, no one is allowed to go down the mountain."

"Yes."

Without any doubt, Ye Wuchen disappeared in the next moment.

Lu Fan left the camp and rushed down the mountain as fast as he could.

He had already thought before that the masters of the enemy country would come to sneak attack, and he had already prepared for it.

Inspired by Liu Mei, he formed three battle formations from the three Dragon Shadow Guards, and together with the masters selected from other armies, he formed ten battle formations in total, just to defend against the sneak attacks of those masters.

Moreover, these ten battle formations will cooperate with each other, learn from each other's strengths, and make up for their weaknesses as much as possible.

Although the effect is poor when used for offense, the effect is excellent if used for defense.

Especially like tonight, the enemy is unaware, and it may have a miraculous effect.

Of course, the premise is that Lu Fan intercepts some enemies first, so as to reduce the pressure on the battle formation.

Otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible to hold on to those ten battle formations alone.

At the foot of the mountain, Lu Fan didn't stop, but continued to move forward.

He wanted to stay as far away from the camp as possible and intercept the enemy at the forefront.

"call!"

The wind rang, and the enemy was very close.

Lu Fan calculated in his mind that sixteen people actually came.

Everyone's strength is incomparable.

According to his estimation, at least the innate six-level cultivation base.

What a great handwriting.

Lu Fan had the experience of fighting eight against one. Although there were eight more people this time, it made almost no difference to him.

No matter how many people there are, there is no way to combine all the forces together.

Especially among masters, it is even more difficult to communicate.

As long as the strongest person can't defeat him, he can defeat them one by one.

When he came to an open space, Lu Fan stopped and put away the cold iron gun.

The next moment, he was holding a bow in his hand.

"Shhhhhh!"

A series of arrows shot out.

He wants to strike first.

"what?"

There was a whisper in the distance.

The one rushing to the front was a middle-aged man. He felt that the danger was approaching, so he reached out and grabbed the hilt of his sword.

"Shh!"

The sword light flashed, instantly illuminating the night.

Then a powerful sword was cut out.

"boom!"

The first arrow was chopped to pieces.

But there is still a violent force coming along the blade.

The middle-aged man only felt his tiger's mouth go numb, and the long sword was almost thrown out of his hand.

At the same time, his qi and blood continued to surge, and even the spiritual power in his body was blocked.

What kind of archery is this?
He was horrified.

Without allowing him to think too much, the second arrow arrived again.

He could only swing the sword again.

"boom!"

The sharp arrow was chopped into pieces again, but he was hit even harder.

His arms were numb, his Qi and blood stagnated, and even his breathing became difficult.

What made him even more desperate was that there was a series of arrows behind him.

Is he going to die here tonight?
How can it be?

"what!"

He shouted loudly, tried his best, and slashed out with a sword.

The third arrow was also chopped into pieces.

But he was impacted by the force, and his body retreated again and again.

After finally stabilizing his body, he could no longer restrain the surging blood in his body, and spurted out a mouthful of blood.

The fourth arrow has arrived again.

He could barely swing his sword out.

With a clang, his sword slashed hard.

The violent power erupted instantly, and the long sword came out of his hand.

The arrow pierced into his shoulder, sending him flying backwards.

"puff!"

The fifth arrow pierced fiercely into his heart, and the powerful force exploded in his body.

He didn't even have time to let out a scream before he fell heavily to the ground.

Killed on the spot.

"what?"

"what happened?"

Exclamations sounded.

The people behind him just arrived, and they were stunned when they saw him lying on the ground with two arrows stuck in his body.

Even the other party didn't see it, and you lost a general?
This is an innate six-level powerhouse?

Shot to death by the opponent with just a few arrows?
How strong is that person?
Lu Fan?

Even stronger than the legend?
Judging by the power of these arrows, they are at least at the eighth realm of innate strength, and even reached the strength of the ninth realm of innate strength.

It's also horrible.

At only 19 years old, he has already become one of the top fighters.

How about that in the future?

They didn't allow them to think too much at all, and the powerful sound of breaking through the air sounded again.

"Shhhhhh!"

The arrows in Lu Fan's hand kept shooting out in succession.

He wants to take the initiative as much as possible, and it is best to shoot and kill a few more people when the enemy is unprepared.

In this way, the advantage can be gained as soon as possible.

After all, there are many people on the other side, so it would be okay if they all came for him.

Even if half of the people rushed to the mountain, the ten battle formations might not be able to withstand it.

"Shh!"

The dazzling sword light lit up at the same time, illuminating the entire sky like daytime.

A series of powerful swords followed, rushing out like huge waves.

"boom!"

Continuous bang.

The violent air waves soared into the sky, forming bursts of storms, sweeping away in all directions.

Flying sand and rocks, countless branches and leaves were rolled up to the sky, dancing with the wind.

Even the moonlight was blocked, and the whole sky became gray.

A series of arrows were all chopped into pieces, turned into powder, and scattered in all directions.

"Shhhhhh!"

Lu Fan's arrows kept shooting out continuously.

He brought enough arrows today to consume his opponent to his heart's content.

"Follow me."

A tall, middle-aged man saw something was wrong and knew that this was not going to work, he was too passive.

With a leap, his body soared into the air, and he rushed towards Lu Fan first.

In the air, the sword in his hand chopped down continuously.

The rest of the people followed closely behind, jumped up high, divided into several directions, and rushed towards Lu Fan.

The sword momentum followed.

"boom!"

All the arrows were ruthlessly chopped into pieces.

Seeing the enemy approaching, Lu Fan vacated instantly and flew straight into the sky.

Arrows rained down.

He relied on his agility to wrestle with his opponent, trying not to let the opponent form an encirclement.

Unlike the last time he played against the eight innate powerhouses, this time he was taking the initiative.

Even if the opponent has many people, he can mobilize the opponent.

Moreover, he was more fully prepared than last time.

"boom!"

Another continuous bang.

The rain of arrows all over the sky turned into nothingness.

The dozen or so people twisted their bodies, pulled up again, and flew towards Lu Fan.

Although a few of them were already surging with energy and blood, and their spiritual power was not flowing smoothly, they still gritted their teeth and rushed towards Lu Fan.

They both know that when someone loses steam, it is targeted as a weakness.

At that time, I'm afraid it will end miserably, just like the person who died just now.

After all, Lu Fan's current arrows are very scattered. If they shoot at the same person continuously, few people can stop them.

"Shhhhhh!"

Lu Fan's body flickered in the air, keeping distance from his opponent, and the arrows in his hand kept shooting.

He was trying to test the opponent's strength.

As long as he tries to find out who is the weakest, he will use all his strength to target this person.

From weak to strong, break through each.

This is his strategy.

The purpose is naturally to wipe out the enemy.

"boom!"

After the continuous bang, three of them sank and began to fall downward.

Lu Fan finally found his chance, and shot a series of arrows at the three people respectively.

"Bang bang bang!"

The first few arrows were intercepted by other people, but six arrows still flew towards the three people.

Those three people had nothing to borrow in the air, so they could only barely swing their swords.

"boom!"

After the loud noise, the three of them fell down like meteors as if they were hit.

At the same time, each person is followed by an arrow, like a shadow.

faster than they can fall.

Before they hit the ground, the arrows had arrived.

They exhausted all their strength and slashed down fiercely.

With a clang, the long swords were released from their hands at the same time, and the sharp arrows penetrated their bodies, falling to the ground together with them.

"puff!"

The three of them were nailed to the ground at the same time, and the screams were heard at the same time.

Without giving them any time to react, Lu Fan shot at the three of them as fast as an arrow.

"what!"

There was fear in their eyes.

As top powerhouses, they have always been respected by others, how have they ever suffered such humiliation?
What's more, now their lives are in danger.

A little regret suddenly surged in my heart.

Isn't it good to practice well?Why come to this muddy water?
Just for those few heavenly exercises?

does it worth?
"Oh!"

A rain of arrows fell, instantly drowning the three of them.

The rest of the people were dumbfounded.

In the blink of an eye, four people had been shot dead by Lu Fan.

And they were all consumed by several rounds of arrow rain, more or less affected.

On the other hand, Lu Fan was still calm.

Obviously, Lu Fan's strength has surpassed any of them.

Innate Nine Realms!

At this time, they were completely sure of Lu Fan's strength.

Is that human being?
In just a few short years, he grew from a small soldier to the top powerhouse in the Great Zhou.

How did you do it?
With fear in their hearts, the remaining 12 people landed one after another.

Lu Fan also landed not far from them.

Did not continue to shoot.

Even Lu Fan, after the consumption just now, had to slow down a bit.

Others even took the opportunity to adjust their breath.

"You are Lu Fan?"

Everyone looked at the young man in front of them, only to see that he was wearing black armor, with a stern face and a chill in his eyes.

It seems to choose someone to eat.

The person who asked the question was named Shi Lin, who was from the state of Qi and was a congenital eight-level powerhouse.

This time, all the masters from Qi and Qin came out, a total of 16 people came, among them were two from the eighth realm of innateness, five from the seventh realm of innateness, and the remaining nine were all from the sixth realm of innateness.

They thought it would be easy to kill Lu Fan, and they could even slaughter Lu Fan's elite as much as they wanted.

Unexpectedly, within a few minutes of meeting each other, four people were shot dead by Lu Fan.

At this moment, they saw Lu Fan's face clearly.

He was answered by a rain of arrows.

Lu Fan only needs to slow down a little bit, and he can return to his original state.

This is his advantage, so he naturally doesn't want to give the other party time to adjust his breath.

"Shhhhhh!"

Exactly twelve arrows were shot at twelve people.

Shi Lin cursed inwardly: What a cunning boy!
He originally wanted to delay for a while, so that everyone could breathe a sigh of relief.

Unexpectedly, the other party didn't give a chance at all.

kill!

Shi Lin was furious, and was the first to rush towards Lu Fan.

The rest of the people also held the same idea, and while running towards Lu Fan, they swung their swords and slashed out.

"boom!"

More than a dozen sharp arrows were chopped into pieces.

Before Lu Fan could shoot out the second round of arrow rain, Shi Lin had rushed in front of Lu Fan and swung his sword continuously.

The others followed closely behind, swinging their swords at Lu Fan from different directions.

Lu Fan seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and his body flew into the air again, narrowly dodging the opponent's attack.

However, the other party followed him like a shadow, soaring into the air with him, slashing at him with sword momentum.

Don't give him another chance to shoot arrows.

While dodging in the air, Lu Fan put away his bow and arrow.

The next moment, he had an extra chess piece in his hand.

I saw him flicking his hands.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Hundreds of chess pieces fell from the sky like meteors.

Colliding with more than a dozen powerful swords, there were bursts of bangs.

The front chess piece was chopped into pieces in an instant, turned into powder, and dissipated with the wind.

But there are still many chess pieces that passed through the blockade of the sword and fell to the top of the crowd.

And, more and more.

Everyone could only keep swinging their swords, but they were secretly cursing in their hearts, what kind of innate strong man is this?It's nothing more than using a bow and arrow, but even using hidden weapons?
It's all about it.

"Dang bang file!"

When the chess piece met the sword, there was a crisp sound.

Every chess piece contains powerful power, which explodes in an instant, constantly impacting everyone.

The continuous consumption made several of them feel powerless.

Their hearts are even more uneasy.

Seems wrong today?
At this moment, a complete chill hit.

Ok?
They were all in a daze for a moment, with their cultivation base, how could they feel cold?

Immediately afterwards, they saw clouds of ice fog falling from the sky.

It was like a thick fog, without any gaps.

Make it impossible to hide.

The breeze blew, and snowflakes floated in the sky, accompanied by ice fog, overwhelming the sky.

An endless chill permeated the surroundings, as if even the air was frozen, and countless ice flowers appeared.

These ice flakes were small at first, but gradually grew larger.

With the wind, it blows to everyone.

It's like a flower bud, slowly blooming and blooming.

Before they had time to think about it, everyone swung their swords almost at the same time, and slashed at the flying ice flower.

"boom!"

With a loud noise, countless ice flowers exploded at the same time.

The violent power raged out, engulfing everyone in an instant.

"puff!"

A muffled groan sounded, and several people spat out a mouthful of blood at the same time, their faces pale.

injured.

And it hurt badly.

At the same time, snowflakes all over the sky fell together with ice fog, enveloping everyone.

Layers of ice mist covered the sword, forming a layer of frost in an instant.

The ice fog continued to spread.

"Crack, click!"

Someone's hands were frozen, their arms were frozen, their bodies were frozen.

Immediately afterwards, he could not hear, see, or even feel.

Even thinking froze.

Only one thought left, broken!

I'm afraid I'm going to die here today.
