Man covers the sky and conquers all worlds

Chapter 117: Sword Light Spanning Twenty Feet
In the endless snowy plains, Hu Yanzhuo rode on a black nightmare horse with black armor covering his body, holding a black iron lance, looking at the mountains in the distance.
"It's just a small Erlong Mountain. Why bother the envoy to do it personally?"

Before him, there was a man riding a dragon horse, wearing snow-white silver armor, with a face that showed neither joy nor sorrow.

"Prime Minister Cai has sent me here this time to wipe out all the bandits in Qingzhou in one fell swoop. Erlong Mountain... is just the beginning!"

But having said that, Wang Huan, the governor of Henan and Hebei, was still somewhat unhappy.

Although after the Song Dynasty, the Jiedushi no longer had the same power as during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, they were still quite good.

But he was dispatched to suppress the bandits!

It's simply an insult to his abilities!
Even if there is a suspected second-grade grandmaster on this mountain, so what?

He is also a grandmaster who has cultivated the second-grade true energy!
Even if it was because of the influence of their fathers, they were able to force their way in with the peerless spiritual objects passed down from generation to generation.

But... behind him, there are 5,000 of the most elite Iron Pagodas of the Song Dynasty!
These five thousand soldiers practiced the same martial arts, and under the aura of the battle formation, they could even connect everyone's blood and energy for a short period of time!
Burst out with power far beyond usual!

Moreover, once the blood and energy of this battle formation erupts, even a second-grade grandmaster who steps into it will be suppressed to some extent, as if his hands and feet are tied.

What's more, among these five thousand people, everyone is a master of the fifth rank or above, with a strength of at least two thousand pounds, wearing heavy black iron armor and riding a big horse!

Under the iron chains, it is extremely powerful!
During the heyday of Emperor Taizu Gao, the five thousand Iron Pagodas even had the record of killing more than one second-rank grandmaster!
The warlords at the end of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period were all extremely terrified.

Even the former Liao Kingdom had to retreat before the attack of this cavalry.

It is the heavy cavalry in the entire Song Dynasty, second only to the Jingsai Iron Cavalry.

Unfortunately, after Emperor Taizong ascended the throne, a series of wrong military deployments led to the gradual demise of the Jingsai Cavalry that once intimidated the entire Liao Kingdom.

On the contrary, this Iron Pagoda was fortunately preserved.

Rumble!
The black-armored iron pagoda connected by iron chains walked across the earth, as if countless thunders were rolling on the ground.

The strong blood and murderous energy blended together and rushed into the sky, and the falling snow above the sky was all blown away and melted.

The evil spirit rolled in like a tide, almost causing the wall that was dozens of feet high and several feet wide to collapse.

boom!
When they were about to reach the range of the crossbows, this iron army stopped in unison, and all the sounds between heaven and earth suddenly stopped.

At this time, the two sides were only a few thousand feet apart. Those who were quite strong could already see the faces of the people opposite them with their amazing eyesight.

The flags fluttered in the wind like flames, and the Erlongshan warriors on the high wall looked pale.

In the past, all they did was to besiege the farms of some landlords and local tyrants at the foot of the mountain.

At most, we can just take advantage of the situation to attack the county town with internal and external support!

We have never faced such an elite regular army!
Can they...really withstand the fierce attack of such terrifying cavalry?
"Open the city gate!"

Just as they were feeling panic and anxiety, a low, metallic sound like the hum of a knife was heard.

The warriors from Erlong Mountain looked in the direction of the voice and saw Yang Zhi, wearing a black robe and with a stern face, standing behind the gate with his sword in hand.

"It's the Third Master!"

The warriors exclaimed and hurriedly opened the small door on the side, letting Yang Zhi step out from behind the door.

Crunch!

Yang Zhi stepped lightly on the snow-covered ground. After walking forward for only ten feet, he could feel the overwhelming and terrifying evil spirit coming towards him.

If it was two months ago, when I had not yet followed Li Ming to practice.

Faced with such a terrifying aura, he could only exert six points out of ten of his strength.

But now, under Dawn's guidance and sparring, he has experienced Dawn's more brutal and domineering fighting style and oppression.

And now, facing such a terrifying aura, even though he still had one last step to go before reaching the Second Stage, he could still exert at least 90% of his strength! In front of the Iron Buddha's battle formation, Hu Yanzhuo, holding a two-foot-long spear in his hand, raised his eyebrows, pointing the icy spear tip at a distance.

"Who are you? I... never kill nameless people!"

As a top-level third-grade cultivator who is about to comprehend divine will and enter the second-grade realm, Hu Yanzhuo's perception is incredibly sharp.

Within his perception range, the person walking slowly towards him was like a sharp blade buried in a scabbard.

The terrifying sharpness of his body had long been concealed by the divine will he had condensed.

Unfortunately, this person's cultivation has not yet reached the highest level, and he cannot completely conceal his edge.

There was still a hint of sharpness, which was caught by Hu Yanzhuo.

However, this does not mean that he is weak.

Because... once he completely submerges all his sharp edge with his divine will.

This means that he has completely stepped into the second-grade Zhengang realm.

He can be the great master of the time!

"I am Yang Zhi, just an unknown swordsman!"

Yang Zhi's voice came from afar, as cold as the north wind that swept across the sky.

"My Lord, let me go down and fight him!"

Hu Yanzhuo's fighting spirit was like a volcano erupting, and the robe covered under the black armor was fluttering violently.

Wang Huan lowered his eyes and quietly stroked the horizontal bow.
"Can!"

"drive!"

After getting the commander's consent, Hu Yanzhuo suddenly pulled the reins.

The limbs under the crotch are strong and the muscles are well-defined. The black nightmare horse, which looks like it is made of steel, steps on the ground with its four hooves, like a black dragon descending on the land, and creates a dark ravine on the snowy field.

Clang!
Hu Yanzhuo was worthy of being a descendant of a military family. He swept the ink-black lance across the sky, causing a roar of thunder and a sudden surge of air currents.

This is the aura of a third-grade grandmaster!
Even fine iron can be easily chopped into pieces by the strong energy.

It can be launched into the air ten feet away!

But now, when Hu Yanzhuo Changshuo swept across, his energy rolled like a long dragon, at least nearly twenty feet long!

From this, it can be seen that his realm is indeed about to reach the threshold of the second level!
Whoosh!

Although the罡气 had not yet touched his body, the turbulent airflow he created had already lifted Yang Zhi's long hair high.

Yang Zhi stood in the center of the increasingly violent airflow, suddenly stopped, straightened his back suddenly, and gripped the hilt of the knife with five fingers.

Zheng!
The moment the blade was revealed an inch, a violent explosion suddenly sounded in the air, and the rolling air wave raised by Hu Yanzhuo was instantly shattered.

The next moment, the blade as white as the cold moon was completely revealed.

A magnificent sword light rose into the sky like a raging sea wave.

With one slash of the sword, the hidden edge of Yang Zhi was completely revealed.

The terrifyingly sharp sword energy stretched across the sky, also reaching a distance of twenty feet!
