Chapter 413 Breaking the Formation
Almost gritting their teeth, the remaining 8,000 demon soldiers waved their simple daggers and attacked towards the top of the city with roars.

The Demon King could no longer bear it. A green light flashed, and the big mouth that occupied his face slowly disappeared, and two hateful eyes appeared on his face.

He looked towards the city wall, and saw a ray of light filled with white aura floating above the ground in front of him.

"The Confucian and Taoist formation!! Wu Zhaoyun!!"

When the Demon King saw the mighty formation, he gritted his teeth.

"Didn't they say that the Confucian formation had not been repaired for a long time and was already in a state of disrepair?!"

There was an incomparable rage in the Demon King's voice:

"How is this going?!!"

All the demon leaders around kept silent, and no one dared to speak up at this time.

wheeeeeeeeeeeee...

The Demon King panted, closed his eyes, and replaced his eyes with a big mouth. His mouthful of teeth rubbed against each other fiercely, making a "cracking" sound.

In his sight, the eight thousand demon soldiers who had just been waving their weapons and roaring forward all began to look painful after entering that mighty energy.

"what!!!!"

The screams made people feel nervous.

"Master Demon King, we can't take it down! The Confucian and Taoist formation is still there. If we go forward, we will die!"

Finally, one of the demon leaders couldn't bear it any longer. He came back and knelt on the ground with a plop, and said miserably to the Demon King.

After hearing this, the Demon King exuded an aura that was so frightening that it made people feel extremely frightened.

"waste!!!"

He cursed and slapped the leader in the face, sending him flying several feet away.

"Everyone, get out of my way!!!"

The Demon King's voice instantly spread throughout the three armies.

The demon tribe members who heard his words, whether they were the tribal leaders or the demon soldiers holding weapons, all looked at him eagerly.

"Teng!!!"

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the Demon King's entire body instantly rose from the ground!

Suspended in the air, it slowly floated towards the top of the city wall of the small town.

The Demon King sensed the top of the city, and with a flash of green light, he transformed into a human form, who looked like a young man in his twenties.

Then his eyes flashed, and he stared at the wall on the top of the city.

"Border Defense Confucian Formation..."

His voice was extremely cold. After taking a deep breath, he stretched out his hand.

The next moment, a green light flashed in his hand, and a petite figure appeared. It was a red "little fire phoenix."

"Daddy!!"

The little fire phoenix was obviously very happy after seeing the Demon King.

It flapped its wings, but its face was full of grievance:

"Hungry~"

The Demon King laughed and said, "I'm not hungry anymore. I won't be hungry soon."

As he said this, he slowly put it into his mouth under the blank gaze of the little fire phoenix...

"Click."

As soon as the Demon King made a move, blood gushed out of his mouth, but he didn't care at all and continued chewing, swallowing even the fiery feathers and small bones into his stomach.

A heat wave is coming.

After swallowing the little fire phoenix, the Demon King only felt his stomach warm.

"Look at how I break the formation! My men! Retreat five miles!"

After swallowing the little fire phoenix, the Demon King's eyes flashed with brilliance, and his whole body was as if painted, with a red glow on his face.

……

"He swallowed it!!"

On top of the Wangyou Mountains, Ji Xuan, who was playing chess with Weiwu Hou, suddenly felt his hand tremble.

Blood was oozing from the corner of his mouth.

Seeing this, the Weiwuhou sitting opposite him calmly handed him a handkerchief to wipe the blood, with a serious look on his face:

"really?"

"My feeling is correct. Someone must have swallowed the Blue-Eyed Golden Eagle. Otherwise, my Qi and blood wouldn't be so disordered."

Ji Xuan coughed, and another mouthful of blood spilled out of his mouth, but he didn't care about the blood at all, and a meaningful smile appeared on his face:
"It was swallowed by the Demon King. The legendary 'Fire Phoenix Egg' of the demon clan can stabilize the foundation and make up for the shortage. He couldn't have resisted swallowing it. Brother Wu, we will win this battle."

As he spoke, he dropped another chess piece, as if the person bleeding from the mouth just now was not him.

"Haha, it's a pity that I can't see it."

A smile also appeared on Weiwu Hou's face, but it was a smile with a hint of regret. He placed a white chess piece in a listless manner.

"Haha, I can't hold out for long either, maybe a year at most."

Ji Xuan's eyes were filled with loneliness, but he smiled with a gloating look:
"But I can still see that boy give birth to a child, but you can't even hold a grandson."

"ordinary man."

Wu Zhaoyun looked at him with disdain, saying that he didn't care, and dropped another chess piece...

"hehe."

Ji Xuan just smiled faintly, and slowly glanced at a figure who was training soldiers on the mountainside. He said with a touch of satisfaction in his eyes:

"The forward is quite talented."

After hearing his words, Wu Zhaoyun's gaze also followed him and looked towards the mountainside.

On the mountainside, the middle-level officer who was practicing the Mandarin Duck Formation, Wu Qianfeng, stared coldly at the 50,000 troops under his command, and said in a cold voice:
"The demon army will arrive soon. Look at the results of your training. They are like a pile of shit. They stink!!!"

"Practice! Keep practicing for me!"

"If I don't train you well, I will be unworthy of Master Lu's appreciation!!"

"........."

The sound came through the mountains and forests and reached the mountain.

"This boy."

There was a flash of relief in Wu Zhaoyun's eyes. He smiled and cursed, then retracted his gaze and continued to move the chess piece in his hand.

Ji Xuan looked at him with a smile, and the two continued playing chess.

……

"Report! The demon army has already reached less than three miles outside Chongbei County."

At the Xuzhou County camp, Lu Yuanzhi reviewed the three armies as usual, and then led the generals back to the commander-in-chief's tent.

The voice of the messenger came in.

"understood."

Lu Yuanzhi's voice was steady.

Then, he withdrew his gaze and slowly looked at the generals.

There were still seventeen generals in the tent at this time. All of them tensed up and looked nervously at Lu Yuanzhi who was sitting in the commander's seat.

"Here they come. The demon army is now at the gates of the city. Everyone, do you have any good plans?"

There was a hint of calmness in Lu Yuanzhi's voice as he slowly glanced at the generals.

"Report to Commander Lu."

At this time, Aunt Lengdan slowly stood up.

"explain."

After hearing Aunt Leng's voice, Lu Yuanzhi's expression relaxed a little, but he still maintained his dignity.

Among the three armies and in front of all the generals, Lu Yuanzhi must have power, otherwise he will not be able to shock them.

"Now the Demon King's army is being blocked outside Chongbei City by the defensive Confucian formation. The day the formation is broken, it will be the time for them to divide their forces and attack the city."

Aunt Leng's voice was calm. She analyzed slowly:
"If I were the commander-in-chief of the demon tribe, I would divide the demons into three groups. The three groups would have different qualities. I would lead the main force myself, and the remaining two groups would not seek to break the city but only to suppress it, so that the three cities on the border of Dayong would not dare to act rashly or to reinforce each other."

"Ah."

Lu Yuanzhi nodded after listening to the question, motioning her to continue.

"So what we need to do is to know in advance, or to plan ahead, which army the Demon King will lead and which city he will attack?"

Aunt Lengdan said with a calm look in her eyes: "This city must be guarded by the commander himself." "That's true."

Lu Yuanzhi nodded slowly. He looked at Aunt Leng calmly and asked:

"Which city is best for me to hold the line?"

"Xuzhou City."

Aunt Lengdan raised her head slowly, her voice still steady as she looked at Lu Yuanzhi and said:

"The Demon King is an ambitious and arrogant person. We just need to spread the news that the commander-in-chief of the three armies is in Xuzhou City. He will definitely lead the army straight to us."

Lu Yuanzhi slowly closed his eyes and thought.

Everyone was looking at him nervously.

After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes:

"Then do it, but be prepared for both situations and have the scouts watch carefully. If something unexpected really happens, we must get the news in advance."

Aunt Leng Dan bowed and said:

"Yes, but please rest assured, General Lu. Outside Xuzhou City is Wangyou Mountain. Beyond this mountain is an endless plain. The entire territory of Dayong can be seen at a glance. If I were the commander-in-chief, I would definitely focus on breaking Xuzhou City. As long as Xuzhou City is broken and the army is led out of Wangyou Mountain, the territory of Dayong will not be a concern."

"hehe."

This idea coincides with Lu Yuanzhi's.

Lu Yuanzhi also felt that if he were the commander-in-chief, he would definitely focus on Xuzhou City. If Xuzhou City was captured and the three armies passed through Wangyou Mountain, then the entire Dayong would be under his attack. The Demon King would not fail to think of this.

But there is one thing he thinks: the Demon King would not be so foolish as to spare no manpower to break into the city of Xuzhou.

"There is one more thing we must guard against."

Lu Yuanzhi's voice slowly sounded in the big tent.

Everyone was stunned for a moment and looked towards him.

"Come in separate forces?"

On Wangyou Mountain, Ji Xuan and Weiwu Hou were discussing something.

At this moment, Weiwu Hou looked at Ji Xuan with a hint of realization in his eyes:

"You mean..."

"Yes."

Ji Xuan's voice was steady, and his eyes slowly focused on the chessboard under his feet:

“Although the demon king is arrogant, he suffered such a great loss at the hands of us twenty years ago, so it is impossible that he will not remember it. He is very likely to divide his troops into four groups, three of which will besiege the city to block reinforcements, and one group will go to the mountains. As long as we pass this mountain, Xuzhou’s natural barrier will no longer be a natural barrier…”

"hehe."

After hearing this, Weiwu Hou said in a cold voice:
"We have been preparing this Confucian and Taoist formation in the mountains for two years. We are prepared for him. We are not afraid that he will not come."

"I'm afraid he won't come in person."

Ji Xuan slowly raised his head, looked into the distance, and said in a deep voice:

"If he only sends one army, will you open the Confucian and Taoist formation?"

After hearing this, Weiwu Hou slowly fell silent.

"kill!!!"

"kill!!!"

At this time, the sounds of military training and killing on the mountainside were deafening.

Weiwu Hou took a deep breath and looked at Wu Qianfeng who was training his troops.

His voice sank, and he tightly grasped the chess piece in his hand, wishing he could crush it, with a flash of pain in his eyes:
"not open."

When Ji Xuan saw him like this, his pale lips moved twice, and he just sighed softly:

"Ugh."

……

Outside Chongbei County.

The Demon King's body was already suspended in mid-air, his eyes silently looking at the formation under his feet.

After taking a deep breath, he slowly stretched out his right hand under the gaze of hundreds of thousands of soldiers in front of the three armies.

"Border defense Confucian formation, right? Break it for me!!!"

The next moment, an extremely dazzling green light suddenly flashed on the Demon King's right hand.

The three armies below looked up expectantly. The light in the Demon King's hand gradually magnified to its limit and looked as dazzling as a second sun in the sky.

"boom!!"

The green light attacked Chongbei City under the feet of the Demon King.

The sound was so mighty, like a sea with rising waves, and the roar of mountains and seas dazzled the eyes of all the demon soldiers and leaders of the various demon tribes.

"Bang!!!"

An extremely deafening sound.

The green halo suddenly hit the white aura of the Chongbei Border Defense Confucian Formation.

"Boom!!"

An extremely harsh sound was heard.

The white aura dimmed a little.

Seeing this, a smile slowly formed on the corner of the Demon King's mouth. He slowly moved his hands together, and two green halos that were even bigger than before emanated from his hands.

"go!!"

“Bang bang!!”

The white aura becomes dimmer each time.

He was already dying under his attack.

The next moment, the face of the Demon King floating in the air suddenly turned pale, and his body staggered a little.

"Master Demon King!!!"

Seeing this scene, all the demon soldiers from the three armies were stunned.

The leaders' faces changed drastically.

"No problem!!"

The Demon King gritted his teeth and steadied his body. He slowly closed his eyes and felt the collision of the breath in his body.

A hint of doubt flashed through my mind.

"Could it be that the Fire Phoenix's aura and this emperor's aura have not yet merged?"

It was just a thought that flashed through his mind, but the Demon King did not take it seriously. It took him only a moment to adjust the Demon King power in his body. He still looked indifferently at the increasingly dim defensive formation.

Without hesitation, he slowly raised his hands, and a more dazzling green light slowly appeared in his hands. In just a moment, the light emitted by the green sphere had surpassed the sun.

The Demon King gritted his teeth and looked at the dim formation under his feet. His eyes turned cold:
"go!!"

The next moment, the big green ball held in both hands fell towards the earth like a meteorite.

"Boom!!!"

The heaven and earth shook in an instant.

All the demon soldiers of the three armies felt the ground shaking beneath their feet, and their bodies were somewhat unsteady.

The gray smoke dispersed.

Everyone looked towards the Demon King's feet.

I saw a huge deep pit appear there.

The deep pit is as vast as a dried-up lake.

"The Demon King is mighty!!!"

"The Demon King is mighty!!!"

"The Demon King is mighty!!!"

Without hesitation, all the demon soldiers, led by their leader, shouted enthusiastically.

The Demon King's face was pale at this time, and a drop of sweat slid down his face, but after seeing the huge deep pit, a smile slowly appeared on his face.

With a sigh of relief, his body slowly flew downwards.

After flying into his coach's seat, he waved his hand:
“March!!”
