Chapter 263 Randomly Find an Unlucky Guy (Subscribe)
In the end, no one stood up.

Although the one who died was a third-rank demon general from the Demon Court, the situation at Beixiong Pass became even more tense at this moment.

Even the victory of "Yue Longmen" which just repelled 50,000 little demons could not make the Taishan soldiers happy.

"Who the hell is this blind idiot? Why did he come to kill that demon general for no reason?"

"Hey... that's right. If we want to kill the demon general, we can just wait until it returns to the Shiwan Mountains."

"The battle between the two armies has just ended. Killing it will definitely cause dissatisfaction in the Demon Court."

"Is it really as the Captain said..."

"what?"

"That demon general was killed by the great demon kings of the Demon Court. Their purpose was to find an excuse to march south and seize the pass!"

"..."

Chen Yi sat among a group of axe and shield men, and the discussions on Beixiong Pass came into his ears from time to time.

He just realized that the "Leaping over the Dragon Gate" of the Demon Court was already commonplace for the soldiers stationed at Beixiong Pass.

Even if the number of demons that attacked this time reached 50,000, it could still only be considered as the "Leaping over the Dragon Gate" category of the Demon Court, which was only to select the talented demons that they believed could be cultivated.

But the meaning of killing the leading demon general is different - from the perspective of the demons, this is a provocation to them!

From the perspective of the demon kings and great demon kings in the Demon Court, it is indeed difficult for them to capture Beixiong Pass, but their own strength is definitely at an advantage.

Therefore, their act of "leaping over the Dragon Gate" and using Beixiong Pass as a touchstone shows their respect for the soldiers guarding the border.

If during the "Jumping over the Dragon Gate", the generals at Beixiong Pass use tricks to kill the demon generals leading their troops, they will face more severe revenge from the Demon Court.

In the worst case, a great demon king would personally supervise the battle with the goal of capturing Beixiong Pass.

“It turns out there is such a tacit understanding.”

Chen Yi curled his lips secretly, this was just like how Yuhua Xianmen had always coveted Taixu Daozong's position as the second most powerful Taoist sect.

The two sides were in constant friction in Jeju Prefecture, Gangnam Prefecture, Dongshan Prefecture and other places, competing with each other for the mission of catching monsters within the three prefectures.

However, such frictions and collisions are usually carried out in secret, and the casualties are tacitly limited to a range that will not cause a quarrel, in order to maintain the superficial good relations between the two major Taoist sects.

However, this is due to the fact that Taixu Taoist Sect and Yuhua Immortal Sect are of similar strength.

If one party's strength increases suddenly, like Chen Yi, then in the subsequent competition, the other party will have to bow down.

This is also the reason why the Yuhua Immortal Sect has retreated and shrunk in the past six months - just like the soldiers at Beixiong Pass at this moment.

After figuring this out, Chen Yi no longer cared about it.

Since he was the one who caused the trouble, he would take action to resolve it no matter how the Demon Court reacted.

However, he believed that if the Demon Court knew that he had sneaked into the Shiwan Mountains, their feelings would probably be as complicated as those of Taishan Hou and others who were worried that the Demon Court would move south to block the pass.

"Who is it?!"

"If we kill that demon general at this critical moment, wouldn't that be an excuse for the Demon Court to take action?"

"My Lord, I think it must have been done by those beasts in the Demon Court!"

"Think about it. My Wei Dynasty is preparing to hold a grand gathering of geniuses. The winners will be able to appear in the selection on the Tianyuan Continent and have a better chance of fighting with the younger generation of demons in the Demon Court!"

"At this time, they are very likely to go south and seize the pass to distract the court!"

Several armored generals were discussing, but Wang Xidu, Marquis of Taishan, remained silent.

In fact, he received the secret letter earlier than these generals, which was sent privately by Wu'an Marquis Chen Taiping.

There is not much content in the letter, only two lines of words - the Demon Court will go south to block the pass during the grand event. The source of this information is reliable, and I hope my brother will be more cautious!
Ever since receiving this secret letter, Wang Xidu's heart has been tense and he dared not relax at all.

Although he was not clear about the source of what Chen Taiping said, based on his understanding of Chen Taiping, he knew that the other party was not someone who made a random statement.

Therefore, during this period of time, every time the Demon Court "leaped over the Dragon Gate", he would climb up to the city gate to investigate the surroundings, for he was afraid that the Demon Court would sneak in under the pretext of "leaping over the Dragon Gate" but actually really attack them by surprise.

At the same time, Wang Xidu also ordered his men to secretly sneak into the Shiwanda Mountains to check the situation, hoping to find clues that the Demon Court was dispatching a group of demons.

"My Lord, what do you think was the intention of the person who killed the wolf demon?"

At this time, a middle-aged general looked at Wang Xidu and asked, "He didn't make a move earlier or later, but chose to make a move when the demons were retreating. The timing was too deliberate..."

Wang Xidu glanced at him, then glanced at the other people in the hall, and said thoughtfully:
"Maybe that person just passed by Beixiong Pass and didn't like the wolf demon..."

"How... could there be such a coincidence?" the middle-aged general said in astonishment.

"Old Niu, I think what the Marquis said makes sense. Maybe we are just overthinking it. There is actually no conspiracy."

"It's possible..."

Several others echoed.

Wang Xidu waved his hand and said with a serious look: "No matter what the purpose of the person who made the move is, we must not be careless from now on."

"Lao Niu, take your men out of the seclusion later and go to the Shiwan Mountains to explore the bottom of the demon court."

"Yes!"

"Remember to be careful. If the demon court is using a self-torture tactic, don't hesitate to light the signal and retreat."

"Don't worry, my lord. I understand."

After the middle-aged general left quickly, Wang Xidu asked about the casualties of the "Yue Longmen" and then relaxed.

"After three years of training, the soldiers of the Taishan Army have made great progress."

"The veterans haven't made much progress. Most of them are still around the seventh level. Only some elite soldiers have made breakthroughs with the help of formations, but they are only at the sixth level."

The sergeant in a scholar's robe unfolded the book, pinched his mustache and said, "The new soldiers' cultivation has increased rapidly. In three years, nearly 20,000 soldiers have raised their cultivation to the seventh level."

"It's just that... there are too few soldiers above the sixth level..."

Hearing this, Wang Xidu sighed inwardly, but he knew that this was already the best situation he had ever experienced while guarding the border.

In previous years, half of the 200,000 Taishan troops remained in the lower eighth level, and many of them had not made any progress in their cultivation.

Now they have nearly 10,000 sixth-rank soldiers, and together with the formation of Beixiong Pass, they are able to deal with the monsters below the sixth-rank on their own.

"While the demon court's 'Yuelongmen' hasn't arrived yet, send the people on duty back to the pass to rest. Don't be stingy with their food and drink, and give each of them a pill for their practice."

"Yes!"

Having just experienced a great battle, the soldiers' true energy is boiling. If they are well fed and well fed, perhaps their cultivation will improve.

It doesn't matter how many there are, even if there is only one more soldier at the fifth level of the Baodan realm, he can be included in the team that kills the demon general.

While Wang Xidu was making various arrangements, Chen Yi noticed the middle-aged general who was heading south, so he took advantage of the soldiers behind him not being prepared and quietly changed his identity and followed him.

It was not until this moment that he realized that the defenders at Beixiong Pass were not unable to go to the Shiwandashan Mountains to investigate, but that they needed special means and had to go there quietly through a secret passage inside the pass.

The entrance to the secret passage was set in a very inconspicuous sentry post inside the pass. Going down a hundred feet along the narrow secret passage, you can see the secret passage that is only one person tall. The entire secret passage is built of stone, wrapped in a special metal material, and the surface is engraved with talismans and characters.

As Chen Yi followed the team outside, he observed the talismans on the secret passage.

Even though he couldn't understand it, it didn't stop him from carefully investigating it with his sword intent.

After trying several times, he figured out the effect of these talismans and formations - they were powerful formations that could isolate auras, so powerful that even a divine being at the level of supernatural powers could not detect the location of this secret passage!
Similarly, the chain mail worn by the soldiers heading to the Shiwan Mountains was also specially made to prevent them from being discovered by demons after they got out.

"Be careful."

The middle-aged general was called Niu Dali. His ancestors had always been blacksmiths in Kyoto Prefecture, and it was not until his generation that they chose to join the army.

"Do you see the stepping stone ahead? Don't move when you walk up to it. There is a special formation here that will randomly teleport you to the outskirts of the Hundred Thousand Mountains."

Niu Dali whispered to everyone, "Remember, don't rush to check the surrounding situation after you go out. Wait until dark before taking action!"

Even though he was hiding in this secret passage, he didn't dare to make any loud noise, which showed how much pressure those demons put on him.

After more than a dozen scouts came forward one by one and were wrapped up and teleported out by the formation, Chen Yi was a little dazed.

Previously, he was thinking that this secret passage, even though it was protected by a formation, was not very safe. If there were demons at the exit, they would discover it directly.

Now he realized that the problem he had thought of was also thought of and solved by the people who built this secret passage - that is, to use formations to randomly teleport scouts.

So, how do they come back?
"After dark, I will come to find you and bring you back to the interior of the country!"

When Chen Yi suddenly realized it, he stepped on the stone wrapped by the formation.

Then he felt a pulling sensation under his feet, and in the blink of an eye he disappeared into the secret passage.

"what?"

Chen Yi felt a flash before his eyes, and found that he was already in a huge stone formation covered with ice and snow.

There are huge rocks more than ten feet high all around, covered with ice and snow on the top, with ice spikes hanging down.

Chen Yi took a look and secretly thought that it was the divine power of the Qimen lineage. Then he released a wisp of murderous sword intent to explore the surroundings.

In an instant.

He knew where he was - in a mountain range a thousand miles north of Beixiong Pass.

"Qianli?"

Chen Yi looked towards the south thoughtfully. They had only walked in the secret passage for half an hour, a distance of more than ten miles.

But now he is thousands of miles away.

"After all, there are too few powerful people in the Wei Dynasty. Otherwise, if there were such a formation, it would have invaded the heart of the Demon Court long ago."

Thinking of this, Chen Yi shook his head secretly, and then focused his attention on the monsters around him.

In his perception, there are not many demons here. Within a thousand miles, there are tens of thousands of demons wandering around.

However, on each mountain, there is at least one demon general with a cultivation level of the fourth rank, just like the leader of a mountain stronghold in the Wei Dynasty, who is responsible for commanding the demons on the mountain.

There were only three demon generals with cultivation at the third level within a thousand miles, and the others were demons similar to the village chief that he had discovered before.

However, because the cultivation levels of these demons were low, he could not detect the meaning from their roars.

After investigating for a while, Chen Yi frowned slightly.

"There is only half a month left until the Wei Dynasty's grand event. Logically speaking, the Demon Court should be heading south to seize the pass, so it is time for them to take action."

"Could it be that what the half-demon princess said before... was wrong?"

Chen Yi had no idea, but judging from the monsters within a radius of nearly a thousand miles, there was no sign of them heading south to attack the pass.

At the same time, Chen Yi also discovered several other Taishan Army scouts who were relatively close, most of whom were scattered within a hundred miles around.

As for the middle-aged general Niu Dali, there was no trace of him. It was probably because of the chain mail they were wearing.

The reason why he was able to detect those scouts was because they were moving around, revealing their different body shapes from the monsters.

Chen Yi thought for a moment, then took a step forward and came to the side of a third-grade demon general.

There is no other reason, this demon general is the closest.

"The death of Snow Wolf was beyond my expectation."

"Could it be that the commander of Beixiong Pass has noticed your majesty's plan? That shouldn't be possible... How could those idiots know your majesty's plan?"

This demon general was a five-meter-tall bear demon. At the moment, he was lying lazily in the cave, holding a piece of barbecue in his hand, which was not sure whether it belonged to the Wei people or the demon.

While eating, it also muttered "quietly": "The bastard Snow Wolf disobeyed the orders of the adults and drove so many little guys forward without authorization. He deserves to die!"

"Unlike me, I do whatever Lord Dihu says."

“Although the Wei people in Beixiongguan are all idiots, some of them are still very powerful. I can’t rush to the front…”

While listening to its chatter, Chen Yi carefully observed its body, movements and even breath.

After a while.

Chen Yi wiped the mask on his face, and a ray of his mind penetrated into the mask. Then his body instantly swelled up like a balloon.

In the blink of an eye, Chen Yi had become exactly the same as the bear demon.

He looked down at his body, then at his clothes, and after making sure there was nothing wrong with his appearance, he walked up and patted the bear demon.

"Roar?"

"Who is so blind as to disturb the old bear from eating meat?!"

The bear demon looked back impatiently, and a trace of confusion appeared on his round face, which was about ten feet long.

It looked at Chen Yi, then looked down at itself.

He looked at Chen Yi's clothes again, and then looked at his own clothes.

After repeating this several times, the bear demon finally asked in a muffled voice: "Which tribe are you from? Why do you dress like me, Old Bear?"

In its eyes, the third-grade bear demons all looked similar, with the only difference being the clothes and weapons they wore.

Just like the mace it uses, it is a magic weapon bestowed upon it by the Emperor Tiger Demon King.

But the mace...the bear demon in front of us also has it!

Chen Yi grinned, his four sharp teeth, each more than three feet long, flashing coldly under the illumination of the ice and snow:

"No, you are dressing like me!"

Before he finished speaking, he swung the mace in his hand, which had been transformed from a long sword, and smashed it at the bear demon's head.

It's your bad luck, die!
"Hey—you, why are you—"
