Daqin Zhentiansi

Chapter 276: Two Grandmasters, Blocking the -Man Army from Advancing

Unconsciously, the name Zhang Yuan had become like a demon in Ouyang Ming's mind.

Zhang Yuan's image of strength was refreshed again and again in his mind.

The soldier who had just entered the Xiantian realm back then has actually become a master!
"boom--"

The sword flashed again, and the evil spirit in the army formation in front was shaken, as if it could not hold on and was torn open.

This was not the first time that Zhang Yuan had combined his own cultivation and martial arts power with the power of the Great Dao to attack.

But this is indeed the first time that such a reckless move has been made.

He condensed his own qi, blood, and true essence, and the evil spirit, drew the power of heaven upon his body, and then displayed his own swordsmanship.

The feeling of the power of the Great Dao pouring into his body caused the jade bones and golden body in his body to be constantly tempered, and one jade bone after another emerged.

Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible to have such an opportunity to fully display the skills and martial arts.

There are only a few masters in the world. It has been decades since such a scene has happened that two masters join forces to suppress an army of 30,000.

Without a Grandmaster to suppress him, Zhang Yuan did not dare to act recklessly.

Actual combat is always the most profound practice.

The power of the Dao on Zhang Yuan's blade became purer and the strength on the blade became stronger.

Du Chongjiu, who was standing aside, had a calm expression, but he was filled with emotion in his heart.

Zhang Yuan's talent in martial arts was truly the strongest he had ever seen.

Just the control and refinement of this kind of great power can lead to visible improvement in a moment.

"This kid is probably very close to the Dragon Elephant Realm."

Du Chongjiu held two swords in his hands and whispered softly.

"I've never seen such a strong body of his in all my years of traveling." Huang Laoliu, who was invisible not far away, spoke.

"Om-"

The light on Zhang Yuan's blade was so bright that it was dazzling. As the jade bones condensed, the 34th war elephant took shape.

With a physical strength of 700,000 jin, the bonus of Qi, blood and true essence, and the improvement of martial arts skills, a faint dragon shadow appeared from the golden body behind Zhang Yuan.

The power of a dragon!
With one slash of the sword, the evil spirit above the army formation could no longer be stopped and was shattered.

Thousands of soldiers fell back with blood gushing from their mouths.

"Form a formation, form a formation——"

"Hold your ground—"

Shouts rang out among the soldiers.

Thirty thousand soldiers retreated, forming an iron barrel-like formation.

Zhang Yuan slowly put away his sword, and the aura on his body continued to gather, as if the next time he swung the sword, it would be a sky-high blow.

With the two masters in the front, the 30,000-strong army defended in layers and did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

Zhang Yuan did not attack again.

He was floating in the air, holding a knife in one hand, his eyes slightly narrowed, gathering the power of the Tao, feeling the power of the Tao, and tempering his golden body and jade bones.

With the help of the murderous pressure of 30,000 troops, the speed of tempering the jade bones in his body increased by more than ten times.

The two masters stood side by side until an hour later, when they moved and the power of the Tao dissipated.

When all the Zhenxi Army soldiers looked up to search, the Grandmaster was nowhere to be seen.

This is the martial arts master, coming and going without a trace.

Without the suppression of the two masters, all the soldiers' blood and energy were scattered, and they all fell to the ground, gasping for breath.

Aftermath.

Even Ouyang Ming and several leading generals around him breathed a sigh of relief, their hands trembling uncontrollably.

"Grandmaster..."

The middle-aged general standing in front of Ouyang Ming wiped the sweat from his palms and rubbed the handle of the spear in his hand.

Everyone felt that this was a journey between life and death.

"Let's rest here," Ouyang Ming looked forward and shook his head. "Brothers, we have enough to be proud of ourselves for being able to hold off two Grandmasters."

After an hour, those who should leave have already left. I can’t catch up with them anyway, so I’ll just walk slowly.

------------------

Zhang Yuan and Du Chongjiu caught up with Xiao Lou and the others 150 miles away. Han Xiao had already left with a team of guards and headed towards Feiying Pass.

However, at this time their team not only did not have fewer people, but had more than 200 more people, bringing the total team to nearly 500 people.

"Commander-in-Chief." The tall Duan Ta and He Jinquan, who was wearing a black martial robe, bowed and saluted.

They had been staying outside Xichang City, and now they were quietly rushing to reunite according to the secret instructions left by Zhang Yuan.

On the way, they unexpectedly encountered a group of only seven or eight people left, heading to Yulin City to assassinate the Princess of Northern Yan. When Zhang Yuan and Du Chongjiu saw Qian Sen, the worshiper of the Hall of Worship, and the exhausted masters of the Hall of Worship, Prince Zhao and Xiao Lou, who were standing nearby, had gloomy expressions.

Although they already knew that the marriage between the Zhenxi Marquisate and the Northern Yan royal family was a setup, they never imagined that this setup would be so big.

There was no princess in the wedding procession, but the one who came was the Northern Yan Emperor Murong Zhao.

"Murong Zhao was the Marquis of Yanbei in the Great Qin Dynasty. He was at the Grandmaster level three hundred years ago."

"The maximum lifespan of a Vajra Realm Grandmaster is two hundred years, and that of a Dragon Elephant Realm Grandmaster is over three hundred years. Murong Zhao practices demonic magic, so his lifespan cannot be treated like that of an ordinary person."

"His cultivation and combat power are not that of an ordinary dragon or elephant."

Du Chongjiu's voice was solemn.

The Dragon Elephant Grandmaster is from the Dragon Elephant Realm that has been famous for three hundred years. Anyone who faces such a person will not be able to remain calm.

"Master Yu risked his life to cover our retreat, I'm afraid he has already..." Qian Sen's face was gloomy and he spoke in a low voice.

Wen Gezheng died, and other powerful people in the Worship Hall fell. Yu Kuizhen personally left to cover the retreat, and his life was uncertain.

This time, the team that assassinated the Princess of Northern Yan suffered heavy losses.

But there is no way around it. Facing the number one person in Northern Yan, even if a master takes action, he will most likely not be able to come back.

"Why did Murong Zhao come here in person?" King Zhao frowned and said in a low voice.

The Emperor of Northern Yan did not lead the army in person, but instead came in secret. What was his purpose?
"Zhenxi Army, Ouyang Shucai." Xiao Lou narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "The Zhenxi Army was almost instigated by the Qin Dynasty to rebel. Murong Zhao has long understood Ouyang Shucai's intentions."

"In the current situation, what Ouyang Shucai wants is to gather his own forces and let Ouyang Xu and Ouyang Ming gain a foothold in Daqin and Beiyan respectively, thus hedging his bets."

"But Murong Zhao is a great hero of his time, there's no way he would let Ouyang Shucai take advantage of him like this."

The Qin Dynasty has already instigated the Zhenbei Army to rebel, and the Zhenxi Army is just following orders and not obeying orders. The Northern Yan court cannot tolerate this.

But I didn't expect that Murong Zhao would come in person.

"Capture Ouyang Shucai and lead the Zhenxi Army to Gubei City. With Murong Zhao's methods, 300,000 troops are enough to sweep across our northern border." Xiao Lou said with a serious face.

In such a situation, the 300,000-strong Northern Yan army, led by its emperor, Dragon Elephant Master Murong Zhao, could not defend Gubei City.

They went to Gubei City to die.

"What if the Zhenxi Army doesn't go to Gubei City?" King Zhao said softly from the side.

Xiao Lou looked up.

"Ouyang Shucai is not stupid. If he knew Murong Zhao was coming, he would definitely understand his fate." King Zhao looked away and whispered, "As long as Ouyang Shucai is told that Murong Zhao is coming, the Zhenxi Army will never go to Gubei City again."

The Zhenxi Army retreated to Xichang City, and it was impossible for Murong Zhao to go to Xichang City in person to kill Ouyang Shucai.

The Zhenxi Army and Ouyang Shucai are a whole.

Killing Ouyang Shucai in Xichang City, not to mention the support of 200,000 troops, is impossible. Even if he is killed, the Zhenxi Army will be dispersed.

It would take at least ten years to rebuild the Zhenxi Army.

"I go--"

Xiao Lou just opened his mouth when King Zhao raised his hand to stop him.

"If we are going to see Ouyang Shucai, it should be me." King Zhao shook his head slightly with a smile on his face.

"I came to Yandi and should have met him."

Go see Ouyang Shucai.

Although it seems that Ouyang Shucai will not take action against King Zhao and the Qin people, the situation is changing rapidly now. Going to see Ouyang Shucai is really putting life and death aside.

Everyone was silent for a moment.

"Master Yu is back!"

There were exclamations from outside the camp.

Everyone turned around and saw Yu Kuizhen on the top of the mountain, with one hand on his waist, his figure as light as the wind, walking quickly towards him.

Xiao Lou showed surprise on his face.

Zhang Yuan frowned.

Du Chongjiu moved and stood in front of King Zhao.

Yu Kuizhen flew over and arrived at the camp. When he saw Xiao Lou and others, he walked over with a pale face.

"Boss Yu!" Qian Sen and others exclaimed in surprise when they saw Yu Kuizhen.

Yu Kuizhen covered their retreat, so of course they were grateful.

Yu Kuizhen waved his hand and walked quickly across the camp. He glanced over and saw Du Chongjiu.

A golden light flashed in his eyes.

"He has been controlled by evil magic!" Du Chongjiu's face changed, he shouted in a low voice, raised his hand and drew his sword, the Chixiao Sword was blazing, and he slashed out with one sword.
