Patrol Captain

At this moment, Chen Yuan's eyes were extremely bright, and he carefully rubbed the object in his hand. Although this stone ball was only the size of a basketball, it felt as heavy as a mountain in his hand. The rich essence filled in it slightly aroused his nerves.

It comes from the spiritual roots of luck and belongs to the earth.

It’s really a timely help!

He suddenly wanted to laugh. He realized the benefits of the sacred tree in Yinshan Mountain. He had thought about it in his mind, but his strength did not allow it. He did not expect that the enemy would send him a sacred treasure.

Dragon Tiger Fragment +1
Now, he couldn't help but feel a little hot in his heart. Any increase in strength now was particularly important to him and would have a key impact on the current battle situation.

After he refined the third divine treasure, his strength reached that of a half-step dragon and tiger. With the Qiankun Secret Realm, he could contend against the Dragon-Tiger Demon.

If this stone ball is refined into the fourth divine treasure, to what extent will the strength increase?
He couldn't help but look forward to it, his eyes were as golden and shining!
Time, he needs time.

But now the army has started killing, the arrows are on the string, and I am in a passive position.

"General Chen!"

A voice brought Chen Yuan back to his senses. He closed his hand and the stone ball disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, the wind around them blew and two figures quickly stepped into the air.

Chen Yuan turned around and saw Ling Yunzi and his senior brother Yangshan.

Ling Yunzi, dressed in linen clothes, with messy white hair, holding a long sword, and with bloodstains on the corners of his mouth, looked at Chen Yuan with surprise, looking him up and down.

"General Chen, what is going on?"

At this moment, he had a lot of questions in his mind.

Next to him, Yangshan, holding a jade ruyi, no longer had the imposing aura of the past. In his eyes, which had just emitted true fire, there was madness and surprise.

He saw the Ninth Mountain General mentioned by his junior brother suddenly appear, and actually used the Creation Universe that was unique to dragons and tigers, and killed the powerful demon general who had stepped into the half-step dragon and tiger stage.

But he soon felt something was strange, something was wrong.

"Fellow Daoist Ling, Chen has only left a clone of the spirit ahead of time as a backup." Chen Yuan spoke quickly and explained the reason. He then turned his head and looked respectfully.

"I think this person must be Fellow Daoist Yangshan!"

"I will repay you two for your generosity someday, but time is a bit tight right now. I think you two also know that Chen's real body is still trapped in Yinshan Mountain."

At this point, Chen Yuan frowned, "My previous plan was to blend in with the supporting demon soldiers and teleport outside the mountain through Yinshan Mountain, and then join forces with our mountain-conquering soldiers to fight a closing battle, destroy the demon's teleportation array in one fell swoop, advance the front line a little, and ease the tense situation on the front line."

This was indeed his previous plan. If everything went well, he and the five great Musashi would hide among the demon soldiers who were teleported outside the mountain. Once they were teleported out, they would immediately destroy the teleportation array, cut off the connection between this prefecture and Yinshan Mountain, and then they could kill the demons in Zhennan Prefecture in one fell swoop.

If he was more radical, he could lead his troops to launch a surprise attack on the two nearby prefectures before the news got through, thereby expanding his military exploits.

This was a plan he had made before coming to Yinshan. He mobilized his troops in advance and prepared to make a big move.

Unexpectedly, the first ninety-nine steps went extremely smoothly, but at the critical moment, the last step, something went wrong. The plan could not keep up with the changes, his whereabouts were exposed, and he was targeted by the Dragon-Tiger Demon. He still doesn't understand which step went wrong that put him in this passive situation.

But it is no use to worry about these things anymore. Now every step is a chess game and every step is extremely dangerous. We need to be extremely cautious.

His tone became serious.
"But plans cannot keep up with changes. Now Chen has been targeted by the two great demons in Yinshan Mountain. It is difficult to escape and he is in a passive position. The only way to break the situation is to rely on this dispatch of troops to play a game with the two great demons in Yinshan Mountain."

"Just now, that old devil and I were playing a game!"

As he said this, Chen Yuan sneered.

The old demon in Yinshan sent a powerful demon general out of the mountain, bringing with him a rare treasure from the root of luck and destiny. He thought it was foolproof, but he didn't expect that Chen Yuan had a backup plan.

It's cheaper for him.

Yangshan and Ling Yunzi were shocked when they heard that the two dragon and tiger demons were targeting the General.

"What does Chen Zhonglang want to do next?" Shanren Yangshan spoke quickly and asked directly about the next plan.

"I tortured some information out of the big monster in their tribe. Every teleportation in Yinshan depends on the sacred tree of their tribe, which is a spiritual root of luck. Each teleportation consumes a large amount of essence of this sacred tree, so it is impossible to teleport twice in a short period of time. Instead, it needs to wait until midnight every day, when yin and yang alternate and the yin energy is at its strongest, to start once." Chen Yuan said in a faint voice.

This was the information he extracted bit by bit from the Tengu's mouth while he was locked in the Demon-Suppressing Tower and tortured him while the Tengu was screaming and losing consciousness. More importantly, this guy still gritted his teeth and refused to reveal anything, so this would take some time.

"So, what we have to do next is to kill them. We will frighten the demons in the city and make them flee back to the formation. This will make the old demon in Yinshan anxious and try to find ways to divert their attention from us, so as to buy some time for Chen."

"Haha, the demon general they sent out just now died. I guess the old beast in Yinshan will be very angry if he knows about this, but he can't figure out our plan."

"In order to prevent the old demon from going down the mountain in desperation, Chen needs to send someone to disguise themselves as a demon and sneak into the group of demons while the enemy and us are in chaos. If anything goes wrong, immediately destroy the teleportation array."

After hearing this last sentence, Ling Yunzi, who was more familiar with Chen Yuan, couldn't help but frown.

"What about you, General Chen? Once the teleportation array is destroyed, won't you be trapped in the demon cave?"

Chen Yuan shook his head at the other party's worry. "Chen is talking about an emergency. If it really comes to this, and those old beasts really come out, the teleportation array must be destroyed in time. There is no need to hesitate. I can't ignore the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers. And..."

At this point, Chen Yuan's tone was filled with murderous intent, "If that time really comes, I will fight to the death in Yinshan and have to pull out two teeth."

Ling Yunzi and his fellow apprentice were a little shocked when they heard the ruthlessness and determination in the tone of the General.

Yangshan suddenly spoke at this time and expressed his doubts.

"I have a question. Since Chen Zhonglang has thought of all this, he must have made a careful plan. If we encounter this worst-case scenario, how should we judge it? By the time we sense something is wrong, the demon has already teleported here, and it will be too late."

And what he asked was also the link that Chen Yuan's words led to.

Chen Yuan smiled for the first time and shouted towards the forest in the northeast.
"Mr. Gongsun, why don't you come and meet the two Taoist friends!"

As soon as he finished speaking, seven or eight miles away, from the white mountains and dark forests below where the wind was howling and snow was blowing, a streak of light shot up into the sky, followed by a dozen flashes, and came to the side of Chen Yuan and the other two.

Gongsun Yang appeared, wearing black armor, with gray hair and a goatee!

Gongsun Yang, with a frosted face, bowed to Chen Yuan, then clasped his fists towards Ling Yunzi and his fellow apprentice.

"Sir!" "Gong Sun Yang greets the two seniors!"

The brothers Yangshan and Ling Yunzi couldn't help but look at the old general. After a look, they couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. To be addressed as "Sir" by the General of the Household, he must be an extraordinary person.

But apart from the aura of the other party's Tianguan Dao seed, they didn't see anything special. However, the two of them didn't express it and nodded at him.

"Who is this?" Ling Yunzi's nose moved slightly, as if he smelled the scent of ink.

The scent seems familiar, but I can't remember where it came from for a while.

"This is the backup plan that Chen has been keeping in Chuanzhong Pass, the storyteller Mr. Gongsun!"

Chen Yuan introduced the origin of Gongsun Yang to the two brothers.

"Storyteller?"

"This lineage of novelists!"

When Chen Yuan mentioned this name, Ling Yunzi's mind suddenly flashed with lightening. Many doubts were connected together and answered at this moment.

He remembered that he met Chen Yuan more than a year ago because of a book called "Qingshan Exorcism Record". He recognized that the book was written by a storyteller, so one night, he "helped" the storyteller and as a result, he triggered the projection of incense, allowing the people of Jincheng to witness the scene of Jiu Zhonglang leading his troops to kill six tribes at Weiyuan Pass, fight a big monster, and break Musashi. Later, he got to know Chen Yuan because of this.

He guessed at the time that there was a storyteller around the General, who compiled Chen Yuan's story into a book and circulated it widely.

Now, I finally see the real person!

It turns out to be this person!
This explained everything. He knew something about the storyteller, or more strictly speaking, the novelist's lineage of cultivation, because he had come into contact with practitioners of this school before, so he recognized the storyteller's handwriting at that time. This lineage focused on identifying people and predicting fate, and borrowing the fortune of the protagonist in the book to bless oneself. In the eyes of the hundreds of orthodox practitioners, this lineage was a side door, and was at the bottom of the hundreds of schools. There were very few people who could really cultivate to a great degree, so they almost disappeared in the world, and those storytellers in the market were just storytellers.

But the magical powers of this lineage are somewhat peculiar. They can borrow the incense and luck of others, and use the magical powers of the characters in the book to fight the enemy.

No wonder Chen Zhonglang could be thousands of miles away and still be able to deliver orders.

The senior brother next to him, Yangshan, seemed to have some understanding of this lineage and looked clear.

Chen Yuan spoke at the right time, "That's right, I met Mr. Gongsun in Qingshan County. He followed me all the way through the battles, and his magical powers made great achievements. After returning from the battle of Weiyuan Pass, I left Mr. Gongsun at Chuanzhong Pass as a backup to keep an eye on the front line. But just in case, I asked him to keep his identity strictly confidential. Even you don't know it. After all, the more people know Mr. Gongsun's identity, the more dangerous it is. I hope you two fellow Taoists will not blame me!"

Chen Yuan apologized.

"It's not your fault. The general shoulders a heavy responsibility and acts cautiously and carefully. I can only respect him. If it were me, I would definitely not think as far-sightedly as the general." Yang Shan was straightforward, his eyes full of admiration.

"Okay, Chen will ask Mr. Gongsun to come out and meet you two. For the next plan, Mr. Gongsun will be the middleman between me and you two."

"Let's work together inside and outside, adapt to the situation, and fight against the beasts in Yinshan!" Chen Yuan's eyes were shining.

"I understand! I will be the one to sneak into the formation, not anyone else. The teleportation formation is of great importance, and there is a powerful monster guarding it. Not to mention whether it will be easy to be discovered, even if we have to destroy it at the critical moment, no one else will have a chance!" Ling Yunzi straightened his face and took the initiative to take on the task.

"Are there still a few big monsters in there now?" Chen Yuan's eyes suddenly narrowed.

"Three."

"Then let's see if we can trick him out and kill him!"

"How to lie?"

Chen Yuan shifted his gaze downwards, looking at the devastated forest below that had almost become a wasteland, his eyes flickering.

There was a big pit there, with a huge headless demon corpse lying inside. The silver light was dim and blood was flowing. It was the Tengu demon general who had been killed just now.

In the center of the city, there was a large black light formation. The three great demons guarding the formation were staring at the dark night in the east.

Tianlang chased the two human Musashi and fought them outside the city. They saw from a distance an extremely bright "moon" rising in the sky, and then the starry sky broke through the night. There was a huge noise that could be heard from dozens of miles away, which made them all feel frightened.

That must be the work and magical power of Tianlang!
Those two human Musashi are dead!

The three-headed monster was delighted. They all knew the name of this Heavenly Wolf. He was the number one demon general under the Great Demon in the Xiaotian Clan and his strength was extremely powerful.

But after a while, the moon disappeared.

"Has the Heavenly Wolf been solved?"

"Did you hear any screams just now?" The Heavenly Dog demon guarding the teleportation array moved its pointed ears, frowned at the other two demons and spoke with a look of doubt in its dark green pupils.
The remaining two big monsters are one from the Miemeng Bird tribe and the other from the Jiaoduan tribe.

One of the two demons shook his head, and the other smiled grimly.
"I didn't hear clearly. Those damned mountain-cutting troops seem to have rushed into the city. They are making so much noise!"

"It should be the screams of those human Musashi. In that case, let's go out and harvest blood food and kill those humans!"

"Yes, those damned human soldiers dared to do this. The last revenge has not been avenged yet."

"The guy who was blocking the formation in the north just now was the Daoguo who sneaked into the formation and escaped last time. He just disappeared. I want to find him and eat him."

The two demons' eyes were ferocious and they were ready to make a move, thinking that Tianlang had sent out to kill the two human Musashi, and the rest would be theirs to reap.

The remaining Tengu demon general who was guarding the formation seemed to be moved and was about to speak when suddenly a sharp whistling sound came from the east.

The three demons could not help but look closely, and saw a silver light suddenly appear in the dark night and snow in the distance. Then they saw the silver light getting bigger and bigger, and a hideous demon shadow appeared.

Suddenly, the Tianlang who had chased out just now had the silver light dimmed, his head half collapsed, and his demon body full of hideous flesh and blood. Behind him, the human Musashi who had transformed into the Three Pure Ones in One Qi chased back, and sacrificed a huge jade ruyi, blasting towards Tianlang.

"boom"

Tianlang roared and blocked with his arms, but was bombarded.

The three demons' faces changed and they rushed up to rescue.

One of the demons rushed forward first and blocked Yu Ruyi.

Just the next second, a ferocious arm pierced its chest directly! (End of this chapter)
