The Heavens Start to Reverse Fate from Martial Arts

Chapter 289: Seeing the Purpose, the Surprising Heavenly Monument
Amid this tense situation, the atmosphere in the four border fortresses became increasingly solemn.

Li Jing's warning was quickly conveyed to Song Que, Yuwen Chengdu and Bai Qi. The three of them were startled and paid more attention to the movements of the enemy outside the city.

On Qinglong City.

Song Que narrowed his eyes slightly and scanned the demon army outside the city with a gaze like a knife.

Those strange-looking monsters still exude a ferocious aura.

But there was a hint of impatience in the eyes of those demon generals, they seemed... very anxious.

Li Jing is indeed a rare military talent. If he hadn't paid special attention, it would have been difficult for him to notice this slight abnormality.

"General, how long do we have to wait?" the deputy general asked in a low voice.

Song Que was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Wait for further news from General Li Jing. It is not appropriate to act rashly now."

He was well aware of the importance of this war. Any mistake might bring a huge disaster to Yiwu City. It was a matter of great importance and he had to try his best to be stable.

This is the disadvantage of having a too weak base. If you occupy a certain area, you will have a broad strategic depth. Even if you lose one or two battles, it is within the tolerable range and there are more options left.

……

In Suzaku City.

Yuwen Chengdu held a phoenix-wing gilded halberd in his hand, with fighting spirit surging in his eyes. He looked coldly at the barbarian army outside the city. His eyes moved over the bodies of many barbarian generals, quietly sizing up their expressions.

"General, the barbarian army seems to be becoming more and more restless." The deputy general frowned and said in a low voice.

The barbarian army outside the city looked restless, as if ready to launch a general attack at any time, and the beasts under them began to become restless, which was a precursor to a surprise attack.

Yuwen Chengdu nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "It is indeed very restless. Wait for General Li Jing's signal. We must ensure that the Immortal Cannon is launched at the best time to deal a fatal blow to the armies of the three tribes."

……

On White Tiger City.

Bai Qi quietly wiped the Qin sword in his hand, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him. However, the murderous intent emanating from him made the deputy general and the soldiers behind him feel a chill to the bone.

Among the demon army outside the city, some beasts began to roar uneasily, as if they were aware of the upcoming battle.

"General, the demon army seems to be taking action. The demon vanguard has begun to move forward. The demons are planning to launch a general attack." The deputy general reported in a cold tone.

Bai Qi slowly raised his head and glanced at the demon army outside the city. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a cold smile: "Let them come. If they come, they will never leave alive..."

……

In Xuanwu City.

Li Jing stared at the ghost camp outside the city, and his uneasiness became stronger and stronger. He knew that the three tribes' armies must be planning something, and it was a plan that could threaten the safety of Yiwuwang City.

At this moment, ripples appeared in the void, and Yan Chixia, with a beard, walked over with an embroidered spring sword at his waist.

He was wearing a Feiyu suit and came to Li Jing with a solemn face. They looked at the ghost army outside the city together. His thick eyebrows raised slightly and there was a murderous intent in his eyes.

Li Jing tilted his head to look at Yan Chixia, and said solemnly: "Your Highness, do you have anything to say?"

Yan Chixia retracted his gaze and said sternly: "The prince said, you guys can fight as much as you want. With him here, this world will never change."

"The prince has come out of retreat?" Li Jing's face lit up with joy, and the heavy stone in his heart instantly fell to the ground. Those who were reincarnated into the vast continent deeply understood who the backbone of Yiwu Wangcheng was.

As long as Taoist Taiyi is still here, the Yiwu Palace will not collapse, and the sky will not fall.

"These words came from the prince's mouth." Yan Chixia nodded slightly, looked at the strange movements of the ghost army outside the city, and said in a deep voice: "I have conveyed my message, I will not interfere with the general's command of the army to fight." After that, he turned around and walked into the void and disappeared.

"General, should we convey this message to the three generals?" Li Can asked with a slightly relieved expression and clasped his fists.

Li Jing nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "Send it as soon as possible, and let the three generals act according to the original plan. This time, we must make sure that the invading enemy will not return! Also inform the entire army to prepare for the battle!"

"I will obey your command!" Li Can turned around and sped away.

……

Yuwen Chengdu, Bai Qi and Song Que received the news one after another, and they issued the order to fight without hesitation.

Soon, the soldiers at the four border fortresses immediately entered combat status.

Archers nocked their arrows and aimed at the enemy outside the city. Infantrymen held their crossbows tightly, ready to meet the enemy's charge. Cavalrymen mounted their horses, ready to attack at any time.

The vast bloody clouds of murderous energy were surging, the golden runes in the sky were rolling like waves, and the terrifying murderous energy filled the world.

At this moment, the millions of troops of the three tribes outside the city suddenly launched a general attack.

The armies of the three tribes outside the four-sided border fortress rushed in like a tide. Their eyes were bloodshot, as if they had lost their minds. They used their flesh and blood to attack the city defense formation, charging forward as if they were risking their lives.

In just a moment, hundreds of thousands of low-level monsters, wild beasts, and barbarian soldiers turned into blood mist and died, dyeing thousands of miles of land red.

The magic circle's light shield caused ripples, countless runes flowed like waterfalls, and the endless power of heaven and earth gathered together, like an unbreakable barrier, keeping millions of monsters out.

On Qinglong City.

Song Que's eyes narrowed, and he instantly understood the intention of the demon army outside the city. They were planning to break the formation by means of blood sacrifice.

As I realized it, I felt a chill in my heart.

The people of the three tribes are truly beasts. They actually want to break the formation at the cost of hundreds of millions of their own lives. This act of slaughtering their own soldiers is truly chilling.

He took a deep breath, suddenly drew out the Narcissus Knife from his waist, and shouted: "Shoot! Stop the enemy's suicide charge!"

In an instant, countless sharp arrows shot towards the demon army like raindrops. As soon as one round of arrows landed on the ground, another round of arrows took off.

The soldiers in the city were arranged in neat rows, using a stepped shooting method, firing one round every three rows, like the rising and falling waves, repeating over and over again.

When a monster is hit by a sharp arrow, brilliant golden light will burst out from its body, and then it will explode on the spot, killing all the monsters within a hundred meters.

With each round of rune arrow rain, tens of thousands of monsters died, but they were quickly replaced by the tide of monsters behind them, making it seem like a drop in the bucket.

Song Que drew out the Narcissus Sword, the sword intent soared into the sky, and with cold eyes he slashed towards the outside of the city from a distance.

The thousand-meter-long blade light was dazzling and slashed directly at the place where the monsters were most concentrated. With one strike of the blade, all the monsters died. The terrifying blade energy hit like a wave, piercing through the bodies of countless monsters.

"Marquis Tiandao, you've passed!" The thousand-meter-tall ancient giant ape roared, stepped outside the formation, raised a mountain-like mace, and shattered the second dazzling sword light with one blow.

"Well-timed! Nine Heavenly Sword Slashes, Heaven's Will Slash!"

Song Que took a step forward, and the 100,000 soldiers behind him instantly formed a formation, connecting with his aura. His momentum suddenly increased tenfold, and the Narcissus Knife slashed from top to bottom. The Sky Knife in the sea of ​​murderous clouds moved with the knife's momentum, piercing through the void in an instant and slashing towards the ancient giant ape.

"Roar! Damn it! It's the same move again!" A trace of fear flashed across the ancient giant ape's eyes. He roared and swung the mace in his hand with all his strength to fight back. Swish!

The illusory and brilliant sword light hesitated for a moment, and then cut off the shining mace, cutting the terrified ancient giant ape's body and soul into two halves.

The bright red demon fairy flowed on the earth, forming a thousand-meter-long blood river. The strange fragrance filled the sky and the earth. The grass grew wildly, the flowers bloomed, and countless precious medicines took shape in an instant.

"Damn it! Attack together!"

"Humans, die!"

"Marquis Tiandao, if you have the guts, come out and fight!"

One after another, the demon generals with terrifying auras came to the front of the formation with roars, and fought against Song Que across the formation. For a moment, the roaring sound continued, and the terrifying ripples collapsed the mountains and cracked the earth.

Song Que's eyes were solemn and he expressionlessly fought against the demon generals outside the city from a distance. He had no intention of going out to fight the enemy.

Although he had reached the highest level of human immortal, facing the siege of dozens of powerful demons of the same level, his only outcome was death.

As a commander, how can you take risks easily?
……

In Suzaku City.

Yuwen Chengdu brandished the phoenix-wing gilded halberd and fought with dozens of barbarian warriors across the formation at a height of one hundred meters.

A golden phoenix flew across the sky, its cries continued, the clanging sounds never ceased, its roars were like thunder, and the tide of destruction surged, affecting countless barbarian soldiers and beasts.

The Tuman army below, each man holding a crossbow, used a stepped shooting method to block the wild beasts that were rushing in like a tide from outside the city.

Both the demons and the barbarians chose to charge with miscellaneous soldiers, which reduced losses while consuming the defensive equipment of the defenders of the four cities.

This was an open conspiracy, because Song Que and his men did not dare to let the armies of the three tribes directly attack the city defense formation.

Such a large-scale and uninterrupted attack would cause too much damage to the city defense formation. If another strong man were to attack with a valuable treasure, there is a great possibility that the formation would be destroyed.

The consequences are too serious, concerning the survival of hundreds of millions of people, and no one dares to take the risk.

……

On the White Tiger City, Bai Qi held the Qin Sword in his hand and waved it casually. A long river of blood-colored sword energy condensed by murderous intent crossed the sky. Wherever it passed, countless monsters turned into blood mist.

His swordsmanship was extremely sharp, and each of his swords could kill a monster. The White Tiger Army behind him followed closely behind him and started a bloody battle with the monster army.

Some powerful demons tried to stop the attack, but facing the onslaught of the long river of sword energy, they could only passively defend and were unable to take any substantial action.

……

In Xuanwu City.

Will-o'-the-wisp flickered across the battlefield, and the sounds of ghosts wailing and wolves howling were creepy.

Li Jing calmly commanded the soldiers in the city, using formations and extremely yang magic weapons to defend and attack the ghost army.

Just as they stabilized their position, countless demons and monsters came rushing in from all directions, and the earth was rumbling continuously, seemingly without end.

"General! The demon tribe reinforcements have arrived!" Li Can reported loudly with a serious expression. He looked at the distant sky, his expression becoming more serious.

In the distant sky, dense black dots came like a tide. After approaching Yiwuwang City a thousand miles away, they turned into four torrents and rushed towards the important border cities in all directions.

The surging evil clouds are so murderous that it makes people tremble with fear.

Li Jing's eyes narrowed: "This is the demon tribe from the nearby state capital! It seems that the three tribes intend to break through Yiwu King City before the auction begins, so as to get what they want."

Li Can said anxiously: "General, what should we do now? If we allow the armies of the three tribes to continue to attack like this, once the number of dead creatures of the three tribes reaches the blood sacrifice requirement, the protective formation will be in danger."

Li Jing closed his eyes slightly, his brain working rapidly, all kinds of information flashed through his mind, and after a while, he suddenly opened his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Wait! The three tribes have not used their trump cards yet, this is not the time to use the Immortal Killing Cannon. Send an order, let the soldiers go out of the city and press forward to compress the enemy's charge line!"

"Yes..." Li Can took a deep breath and quickly conveyed Li Jing's order.

As the city gates opened, 500,000 Black Armored Soldiers marched in neat steps toward the border defense line. As they marched, the bows and crossbows in their hands kept trembling, and the rain of arrows never stopped.

At the same time, Song Que and others made the same decision. They all went out of the city and pressed forward to compress the enemy's front line and block the charge of the three tribes' armies.

As time went on, the two sides began to engage in hand-to-hand combat, and in an instant, the brutality of the war escalated several levels.

On the battlefield, blood dyed the earth red, corpses piled up like mountains, and the killing ratio between the two sides reached a terrifying twenty to one. For every human soldier who died, twenty or even more creatures of the three tribes would die.

Even with such a horrific casualty ratio, the armies of the three tribes still showed no signs of retreat and continued to launch a desperate charge frantically.

……

The rear base of the three tribes’ armies.

Lu Qiong was dressed in golden clothes, with his hands behind his back, looking at the entire battlefield indifferently. His eyes were shining with golden light, quietly observing all kinds of filthy auras between heaven and earth.

Man Ba ​​frowned and said, "Sixth Prince, how long will this suicidal charge continue?"

He felt a little distressed. Although the demon tribe was responsible for the main attack, tens of thousands of barbarians died every moment. If this continued, the elders of the tribe would definitely blame them, and a lot of trouble would be inevitable.

The barbarians do not have the deep foundation like the five major tribes of gods, demons, monsters, ghosts and humans. Excessive casualties can easily shake the tribe's fortune. The consequences are too serious, and his identity as the eldest son of the Barbarian King cannot suppress them.

Gui Qian said indifferently: "Why are you panicking? The number of deaths in my ghost tribe is no less than that of your barbarians. If you want to break the defense formation of Yiwu King City by blood sacrifice, it will not be possible without the death of millions of lives."

Lu Qiong retracted his gaze, looked at Gui Gan and Man Ba, and asked: "When will Shenqiong and Motian arrive? Don't think of taking advantage of them at this time, otherwise... someone will die."

Manba shook his head and said, "I don't know. After that separation, I haven't seen them again, nor have I received any messages from them. I don't know what they are planning."

Gui Qian said calmly: "Don't worry, with the calamity of all races approaching, they dare not play tricks. Even if they do, the elders of the clan will go and ask for an explanation."

They are not independent cultivators, but the descendants of major ethnic groups. There are some things they can do, but there are some things they absolutely cannot do.

Lu Qiong nodded slightly, turned his head and looked at the formation shield that was upside down on the ground, and sighed: "This King Yiwu is really good at this. This city protection formation is not much inferior to the defense formation of the Li Kingdom's imperial city..."

Taotie, who had been silent the whole time, said quietly, "Using the innate treasure as the formation base, the power of the formation is naturally beyond words..."

"An innate treasure?" Lu Qiong turned around in surprise and asked curiously, "Senior Taotie, do you know which innate treasure the other party is in control of?"

There are a number of innate treasures in the world and they all have owners. If you know which innate treasure the other party controls, you can use it to infer the background and identity of King Yiwu.

"The Five Great Heavenly Steles!" Taotie spoke word by word. He could not be wrong, that was indeed the aura of the Five Great Heavenly Steles, otherwise with his personality, he would not be so cautious.

"Five Taitian Stele? Are you sure, senior?" Ripples appeared in the void, and Shenqiong and Motian walked out with solemn expressions.

"Those crazy people of the Fifth Emperor?" Lu Qiong frowned upon hearing this.
