Chapter 1175: Sword Unrivaled
If he could really escape from Bai Qi with his swordsmanship.
He absolutely deserves the name of "Unparalleled in Swordsmanship".
Ji Qianling didn't know these three names.
Pig Girl didn't know these three names.
But Lin Su knew it, he knew one!
It is enough to know just one.
"Brother Jian, we have already had the tea. Would you like to try the wine from my hometown?" Lin Su said.
"Hometown wine?"
"Exactly!"
Lin Su raised his hands and four silver pots flew out at the same time.
Jian Wushuang has a pot, Lin Su has a pot, Ji Qianling has a pot, and Zhuer also has a pot.
As soon as Jian Wushuang got the exquisite wine pot, his eyes lit up, because there was a poem engraved on the silver wine pot...
"The autumn waters of South Lake are smokeless at night, but I can ride the current straight up to the sky, borrow the moonlight from heaven, and buy wine from the white clouds!" Jian Wushuang slammed the table and stood up: "Wonderful! Absolutely wonderful!"
As the wine jug was opened, a strong aroma of wine came out, making Jian Wushuang's eyes brighter.
He took a drink from the pot, and then his whole body froze in mid-air...
After a long while, Jian Wushuang let out a long sigh: "I have been wandering in the rivers and lakes for forty years, with fine wine as my bones and sword as my boat. Now I finally get the taste of this, but I laugh at the foolish boy with half white hair!"
As soon as the voice fell, waves of heavenly law spread.
They are two waves of heavenly virtues.
One is a seven-color wave, and the other is a five-color wave.
The colorful Wenbo was obtained by "Nanhu Qiu Shui" - but it was not the first time it appeared, so there was only Wenbo but no Wenqi reward.
However, the five-colored Wenbo transformed into a five-colored phoenix and merged into the center of Jian Wushuang's eyebrows.
What does this show?
This poem was first created by Jian Wushuang at this time!
He is actually a scholar who can write colorful poems.
Two people, two pots of wine, two poems, and an accidental encounter seemed to shrink the vast world in an instant, allowing the two to glimpse something called a confidant.
Lin Su felt that Jian Wushuang was very similar to him.
And Jian Wushuang also felt that this third-rank inspector of the fairyland, who had impressed him so much upon their first meeting, was very much like himself.
The two hit it off right away, drank together, talked about the world, and were in high spirits.
On the other side, Ji Qianling received Zhu'er's exclamation through his consciousness, which was both surprising and joyful...
"Miss, I...I found that I have grown up!"
Ji Qianling's first reaction was to look at her breasts. What does growth mean? Her breasts are getting bigger?
It hasn’t gotten bigger. What has grown?
Zhuer explained: "In the past, when I saw handsome guys like Jian Wushuang, I always felt like I was being scratched by a cat. To put it simply, I felt like I was no longer good enough... Now I suddenly realize that he seems to be quite ordinary. I can treat him with a normal heart!... My mother said that if you can remain normal when you see a particularly good-looking man, that means you have grown up."
Ji Qianling rolled her eyes...
If you can remain calm when you see a particularly handsome man, it means you have grown.
This is the truth, but it is hard to explain when it comes from your mother's mouth.
What about your mother herself?
Has she grown up?
She still looks like a crazy fan until now...
Forget it. Anyone with a sound mind should refrain from talking about her mother behind her back. This is the unspoken rule of Luotian Sect.
I won't talk about your mother, I will talk about you: "So, how are you in front of your brother Lin? Can you keep a normal mind?"
"Why should I keep a normal heart in front of him? He is extraordinary in every way. He is the light that my mother said we can see in the martial arts world..."
My goodness!
Ji Qianling stroked his forehead...
The next three days were relaxing and enjoyable.
Lin Su and Jian Wushuang, who came from the Ling Dynasty in the Western Regions, toured all over Xihe City.
Go boating on the Xihe River and watch the fishermen singing in the evening.
Sit down in the brothel and enjoy the music and the beautiful woman.
When I have nothing to do, I discuss anecdotes and funny stories from the martial arts world.
Jian Wushuang is very talkative, and the customs of the Western Regions are revealed through his mouth.
Jian Wushuang's position was also very high-end, and he described the Western Region dynasty structure, sect power, and strange skills one by one.
Lin Su also inquired about his identity, and he only said that he was a casual cultivator.
Ji Qianling and Zhuer also accompanied them.
Not much talk, not much talk...
However, on the fourth day after they entered Xihe City, Ji Qianling passed a message to Lin Su.
Lin Su held the teacup, and the smile on his face froze for a moment under the setting sun...
"Seven days later?"
"Yes! The Baiyujing team will arrive in seven days, and the Xiandu team will also arrive in seven days. The team leader is our former teammate, Du Dongliu." Ji Qianling said: "It's quite interesting, isn't it? This event was proposed by our three-person team, and in the subsequent promotion process, it will still be promoted by the three of us."
She was talking about the Magpie Bridge Meeting.
The Magpie Bridge Meeting is officially held during the Mid-Autumn Festival in August.
The preliminary preparations must naturally be carried out in full swing.
The person in charge of the preparations on the Eastern Region Immortal Dynasty's side was Du Dongliu, one of their three major envoys at the time.
"This is a reasonable choice!" Lin Su said, "After all, there are only three of us who are familiar with Bai Yujing in the court of the Eastern Region Immortal Dynasty."
"It's not difficult to choose a venue and set up an organization."
"Of course it's not difficult."
Ji Qianling raised his eyes and said, "But the way I look at you is a little strange. Why?"
"The effective time window is only seven days. When will they launch the attack?" Lin Su slowly raised his eyes.
Zhu'er next to them was a little confused by the conversation between the two. She could basically determine that the young lady was talking to him, but the two were talking through telepathy and she couldn't hear it.
As for Jian Wushuang, he is not here at the moment. This guy seems to be the same type as Lin Su. In the whole Xihe City, there are probably only two people he is willing to have sex with, one is Lin Su, and the other is Zui Gu from Zuiyuan.
At this moment, he went to Zuigu to feel the drunkenness of a man.
Ji Qianling groaned for a while and said, "There is no sign of the enemy at the beacon tower thousands of miles away. Your judgment may be inaccurate."
"The beacon tower is just a routine military setting. It may not be able to accurately capture every unusual movement of the army."
Ji Qianling said: "Even if the enemy really has a brilliant military strategy and hides it from the beacon tower, it will still be difficult to succeed, because Xihe City also has an indestructible ancient formation. Once it is activated, even if the enemy is led by Wanxiang, it will definitely not be possible to break through the formation and enter the city in a short time."
"It is precisely this great formation that makes me more convinced that the Purple Qi Wen Dynasty army will attack!"
"Oh? Why is that?" Ji Qianling didn't understand.
There was a mysterious light in Lin Su's eyes: "Because once they occupy Xihe City, they can rely on this ancient formation to defend Xihe City. Even if our Eastern Region Immortal Dynasty's support army rushes to help quickly, it will be difficult to recapture Xihe City in a short time. Their army can seize this opportunity and continuously cross Muyang Mountain to truly control this area under the banner of Ziqi Wen Dynasty!"
This is what makes Xihe City special.
Xihe City currently belongs to the Eastern Region Immortal Dynasty.
There are foreigners on all sides.
A tail behind it connects to the heartland of the Eastern Region Immortal Dynasty.
Objectively speaking, it would be very difficult for the Ziqiwen Dynasty to cross the border and take over Xihe City.
If you want to accomplish something, you have to resort to unexpected means.
With lightning speed, they captured Xihe City.
But even if it really succeeds, how to maintain it is still a big problem.
Once the army of the Eastern Region Immortal Dynasty surrounded Tang Yuan, this special force would capture him. Who would dare to use such a strategy to wipe out the entire family?
However, Xihe City has an ancient strange formation that provides room for this unconventional battle.
As long as this army that crosses the border can capture Xihe City in the first place, this formation can be activated. Even if the Eastern Domain Immortal Dynasty gathers thousands of troops, they will not be able to swallow them up in a short time.
With this indestructible fortress, the reinforcements of the Ziqiwen Dynasty would be able to arrive and a real confrontation would be formed.
Although Ji Qianling was not proficient in military tactics, he was also proficient in wisdom and grasped the key point at once: "You mean, this formation actually has a chance to break through?"
"There is no perfect person in the world, and there is no perfect formation in the world." Lin Su said: "Even if the formation itself is perfect, it is still controlled by people. Humans are the most complicated creatures in the world..."
His voice suddenly stopped.
His eyes suddenly shot towards the horizon.
On the distant Muyang Mountain, battle flags are fluttering. That is the Xihe Army defending Xihe. With a total number of one million people, they build a solid barrier between the two regions in the eyes of the 3 million people in Xihe State.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred.
Countless warships seemed to appear out of thin air.
Densely packed across the western sky.
On the top of Muyang Mountain, all the battle flags seemed to be touched at the same time...
hum...
The battlefield horn blows...
The long horn, distant and desolate, resounded throughout Xihe City at the first moment.
"Enemy attack!" Everyone in the city was shocked.
"The enemy is outside the city, why haven't the beacons been lit yet?" a careful man shouted.
"Don't worry, there is an ancient formation in Xihe City. Once the formation is activated, even if Wanxiang is the commander, he cannot enter!" Someone also comforted everyone.
In the City Lord's Mansion, He Paiyun stood up, his expression suddenly changed: "What's going on?"
With a loud bang, the earth shook...
On Muyang Mountain, within a thousand miles, a war broke out...
In an instant, battle flags fluttered, horns sounded like dragons, the air was torn apart, and the heaven and earth seemed to be completely overturned at this moment.
Lin Su stood up suddenly and looked into the sky, with a gleam in his eyes.
In the fairyland world, it was the first time that he saw the brutality of the battle between two armies.
It’s really fierce.
The power of each warship is comparable to that of millions of naval forces gathered in the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea.
Every soldier who breaks through the air is above the Dao Fruit level.
The team leader is a Dharmakāya, and with Saint-level power, he is probably only at the middle level. Once the military formation that integrates Saint-level power plus countless Dharmakāyas and Dao-fruits is released, its power will directly break through the level above Saints.
After just one encounter, a huge hole appeared on Muyang Mountain, and the thousand-foot-high mountain turned into nothingness.
Behind the huge gap, the warship blossomed like a huge flower, and countless war beasts and warriors stepped out of it. The floating clouds in the sky were swept away, and replaced by battle flags like clouds and soldiers like tides...
The wind was blowing violently, and the cry of killing was deafening, like the Milky Way pouring down from the sky towards Xihe City.
The troops haven't stopped yet, but the city is moving first.
The whole city is like a lone boat stepping into the vast ocean.
"You were right!" Ji Qianling's face turned pale at this moment.
Although she was a genius in wisdom and Taoism, she had never seen a real army attacking a city.
The battles involving millions of soldiers on the battlefield were earth-shaking. No matter what level of cultivation one had, facing such a powerful army, everyone felt like an ant.
Lin Su's eyes were fixed on a tall tower in Xihe City.
There is the formation platform of the large formation.
The army of the Ziqiwen Dynasty crossed the thousand-mile beacon zone without any warning, broke through the Muyang Mountain defense line at lightning speed, and was about to capture the city.
It’s time to start the great formation!
With a slight buzzing sound, the whole world seemed to move suddenly.
Nine golden lights rose from the tower and transformed into boundless ripples of the sky.
It was like a nine-petal golden lotus blooming in the void.
Countless war beasts swooped over and crashed into the Heavenly Dao Formation.
Dozens of warships also crashed into the Heavenly Dao Formation.
Silently, the war beasts turned into blood mist, the warships were torn apart, and the people inside also turned into blood mist.
The colors of these blood mists are all kinds of strange, some are red, some are white, some are black, and some are silver, like an overturned kaleidoscope.
Ji Qianling let out a long breath: "The formation has been activated! It is indeed powerful!"
"Something is wrong!" Lin Su said.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud bang and the Xihe formation platform shattered into pieces!
The formation platform cracked, and the ancient formation that had just been formed, the formation patterns were like flowers in late autumn, withering piece by piece.
"Kill!" In the air outside the formation, a huge purple flag seemed to pierce through the sky and earth. With a loud roar, the Xihe River stopped flowing for a moment.
"The formation is broken! What happened?" Ji Qianling's face, which had just had some color, turned pale.
At the highest point of the City Lord's Mansion, He Paiyun stumbled and almost fell off the platform. His eyes were cast in the direction of the formation platform, and his face was pale.
The war broke out so suddenly, without any sign at all.
This was the worst of the war.
He could hardly imagine anything worse.
And now, he knows.
What’s worse is that the enemy is at the gate of the city and the ancient formation is suddenly destroyed!
The ancient formation is Xihe City’s last and strongest line of defense.
Once the great formation was destroyed, Xihe was defenseless against the powerful enemy.
With a swish, a figure flew down from the air and landed next to He Paiyun. It was Lin Su.
"Lord He, the military situation is urgent. Let me command this battle!" Lin Su's eyes were fixed on Muyang Mountain.
The war in Muyang Mountain has reached a fever pitch.
Although the Muyang defenders had a million people, they were caught in a huge hole by the enemy's sudden sneak attack. During the emergency resistance, it was difficult for the troops to form a formation and they suffered heavy losses.
What's even more terrifying is that the central part has been breached, and millions of war beasts have flooded out like a tide, turning into a raging flood from this gap, carrying hundreds of warships, and are less than a hundred miles away from Xihe City.
A distance of a hundred miles, with the super maneuverability of warships and war beasts, it will only take five minutes at most!
"Lord Lin!" He Paikong said, "You have never been exposed to the art of war, how can you command an army? You should contact His Majesty immediately. Our state predicts that this battle will be extremely difficult and dangerous..."
"Who said that I have never been exposed to the way of war?" Lin Su suddenly took a step forward and came to the top of the west city gate.
His hand suddenly stretched out...
"Both trees and grass are soldiers!"
As soon as these four words came out, a ray of light from between his eyebrows shot straight into the sky.
The sky suddenly changed, as if it had changed its appearance.
The next moment, a strange scene occurred on the battlefield below.
The jungle outside Xihe suddenly came alive. The big trees swayed and hit a low-flying warship, causing it to disintegrate.
Countless plants turned into tentacles, hugging the war beasts that were flying across the grass. Once they hugged, the war beasts could not break free.
For a moment, the army on the battlefield, which was about to flood into the Xijiang River like a broken dam, seemed to have become millions of insects on a web, and when they were only ten miles away from Xihe City, they could hardly move forward even a single step.
The tens of thousands of soldiers on the city wall were all stunned.
The city defense general's eyes widened: "Art of War?!"
This army, the army defending Xihe City, although not on the front line of Muyang, its combat power is even stronger than that of the Muyang defenders, because they are also responsible for intimidating the various alien races, and the combat power of each person is above Daoguo.
The leading city defense general Lu Tiangao, whose cultivation reached the level of a saint, was only one step away from Wanxiang.
Even though Lu Tiangao had fought on the battlefield for half his life, he had never seen such a strange tactic of war. With one move of military tactics, he blocked the battlefield a hundred miles outside the city. On the battlefield, all the grass and trees became soldiers.
At the most critical moment, it provided the most precious time for Xihe City to concentrate its troops.
With a swish, a large group of officials appeared on the top of the city wall. They were the Xihe official team headed by the prefect and city lord He Paiyun.
He Paiyun opened his eyes wide: "Is this a military strategy?"
Lin Su said: "Yes! My military skills are enough to resolve this crisis, Master He, do you believe me?"
He Paiyun's face was full of changes. "According to the laws of the Immortal Dynasty, military power is granted to Your Majesty and cannot be transferred privately. However, facing the crisis in Xihe, I will bear all the blame alone! Lord Lin, accept the order!"
He raised his hand!
A small flag appeared in his palm.
This flag has a black background with a tiger on it.
It is the symbol of military power: the tiger flag!
Lin Su stretched out his hand to take it. As soon as he received it in his hand, the tiger flag suddenly enlarged a hundred times and became the largest military flag on the entire battlefield.
On the military flag, the black tiger roared towards the sky, shaking the heavens and the earth.
The 100,000 soldiers below suddenly felt a strange connection with this flag.
"The Ziqi Wen Dynasty's army launched a surprise attack. Xihe is facing life and death!" Lin Su's flag pointed directly to the northwest: "I am Lin Su, the envoy, take the military flag and be the commander of this battle!"
"Follow the commander-in-chief's orders!" The hundred thousand troops below roared in unison.
"Form a formation and kill the enemy!" As soon as Lin Su uttered these four words, the military flag pointed directly to the sky outside the city.
This finger was like a sword that split the sky!
This sword!
Combine the fighting power of a hundred thousand troops.
Under the sword, the thirteen warships that had just passed the Baili Bingfa Dojo were completely disintegrated...
This shocking scene made the bloody battlefield seem to be silent for a moment...
In the distant sky, on a warship, a commander in golden armor suddenly stood up. His eyes penetrated the distant space and locked onto the city wall to the west of Xihe City.
"Art of War?" The two words were spoken in a low voice.
"No matter what military tactics we use, they can't reverse the situation!" A military advisor nearby said, "General, time is running out, we need to fight quickly and make a quick decision!"
This is the key point of attacking Xihe.
We cannot fight a conventional battle, we must fight a quick and decisive battle.
They seized the time window of the destruction of the Xihe formation so that they could quickly destroy Xihe City. Once Xihe City was given time to react and the formation was restarted, this lightning sneak attack would fail, and there would be endless variables.
"All troops attack!" The commander raised his hands and issued a military order.
boom!
In the northwest sky, warships suddenly poured down from the gap like a tide.
Commander Muyangshan's heartbeat quickened: "Not good, intercept!"
Although he issued an order to intercept, his troops were still fighting a bloody battle with the enemy. How could he spare more troops to intercept?
The three 10,000-man teams on the flanks rushed to intercept, but they were unable to stop the purple army that was roaring like a raging tide.
In an instant, all three teams of 10,000 people were defeated.
Thousands of warships crossed the huge gap almost at the same time and rushed towards Xihe City again.
If each warship had thousands of soldiers, this wave of attack would be a desperate gamble by a million-strong army.
When He Paiyun saw this scene, his heart sank...
Finished!
It's too late!
Even if we are connected with His Majesty at this moment, even if the reinforcements from the Eastern Region arrive in the fastest flying boat, it will still take ten hours to arrive, and a battle like this can only be sustained in a quarter of an hour.
At this moment, Lin Su shouted: "Master He, go and repair the formation immediately!"
"How can we repair the formation? The formation master has just sent a message that the main base has been destroyed. It will take at least five hours..."
"It's okay! I'll give you five hours!" Lin Su said.
He Paiyun stared at him intently: "Really?"
"Don't worry, it's totally possible!"
Cranes soar into the sky...
The wind moved around Lin Su, and Ji Qianling appeared.
The next moment, another figure appeared, it was Jian Wushuang.
His eyes were fixed on the rolling torrent a hundred miles away, and he shook his head gently: "Brother Lin, we can't stop it! Not even for half a minute! Not to mention five hours..."
"Really?" Lin Su raised his hand suddenly...
On his spiritual platform, the Thirty-Six Strategies of War suddenly lit up...
With a wave of the big flag, hundreds of warships suddenly appeared in front of the thousands of warships in the west, and on the warships were flying the battle flags of the Eastern Region Immortal Dynasty.
"Reinforcements!" Ji Qianling shouted loudly, with endless joy.
"This is not reinforcements, this is military tactics!"
The art of war comes out of nothing!
The most bizarre of the Thirty-Six Stratagems.
The void interprets a large army to attract the firepower of the opposing army.
At this moment, how could the thousands of warships have time to judge whether the other party was real or fake? Their mission was to capture Xihe City as quickly as possible.
As soon as they saw the enemy warship.
"kill!"
This kill was done with full firepower.
However, no one realized that the sky was in chaos.
In the midst of chaos, Lin Su came up with his second, third, and fourth plan...
Comes into being.
Li Daitao is stiff!
The East Region warship that appeared out of thin air was replaced by the real Purple Air warship.
The original air-to-air tactics turned into a real combat at this moment.
The fratricide began.
The battleships in the sky were damaged, and the soldiers continued to fight. Blood rained in the sky and human lives were worthless.
Ji Qianling was confused.
Jian Wushuang was dumbfounded.
Zhu'er's pair of peach blossom eyes could no longer see the battlefield scene, and could only see half of Lin Su's profile.
Lin Su is also enduring a difficult test that he has never experienced before...
Outside the city, there are thousands of warships and millions of troops, covering a battlefield of hundreds of miles. The scope is shocking and the combat power is unprecedented.
Even though the essence of the art of war is to connect with the Way of Heaven and borrow the power of Heaven to kill the enemy, this borrowing process is also an all-round challenge to the operator's attainments in literature, military, mental strength, and spirit.
Lin Su accepted the challenge.
His two souls merged into one, and his interpretation of the Thirty-Six Stratagems surpassed the limit...
Even so, there were still a small number of warships that escaped the control of the military tactics, and they were heading directly for the top of the city where Lin Su was.
