Invincible from the martial arts

Chapter 155 Royal City
"call out!"

In the void, twenty-three Yuandan cultivators were flying towards the capital of the Great Shang Dynasty.

The atmosphere in the field seemed very depressing.

Even though the magnificent and glorious city of the royal capital with tall buildings was right before their eyes, no one in the team spoke.

It was not until they flew to a towering tower nearly a thousand meters high standing on the edge of the city and two people flew out of it that a Jindan master asked for instructions: "Zhou Zhenchuan, we..."

"Everyone, take your positions and make preparations to fully activate the formation."

Zhou Wuqiu ordered.

The Jindan master was slightly startled. "True disciple, do you think... Bai Fei and Zhan Wuji can't do anything to that traitor? Moreover, after defeating Bai Fei and his men, will that traitor still have the energy to come to our capital headquarters and run wild?"

Zhou Wujiu glanced at him and said, "It's always better to be cautious."

He did not say what was on his mind.

Although this Jindan is his confidant, but...

Those in a high position must avoid showing their emotions on their faces, so that their true thoughts are not guessed by those below them.

He also believed that even if Taixu Sword Sect really released a genius like Li Chunjun, he would definitely have a lot of life-saving items on him.

In this situation, even if Bai Fei and the others trapped Li Chunjun, Li Chunjun would have plenty of ways to fight his way out by relying on talismans and magic weapons.

This is also the reason why he insisted on not joining Bai Fei and others to surround and kill Li Chunjun.

What we really need to consider next is the losses of Bai Fei and others.

If they defeated Li Chunjun with only minor losses, it would undoubtedly be a huge blow to his reputation as a true disciple.

If Bai Fei's side suffered heavy losses before they were able to repel this traitor...

This undoubtedly proves that his choice to defend the capital was a mature move.

And he himself...

Prefer the latter.

Li Chunjun, or Taixu Sword Sect, is not a fool.

If Li Chunjun didn't have certainty, how could he continue to chase to the vicinity of the Shang Dynasty capital after gaining a lot of benefits?
So, it’s never too late to be careful.

If things go as he expected...

From now on, Bai Fei and Zhan Wuji will no longer be able to threaten his identity as a true disciple.

As for the Yuan Dan elders who will inevitably die during this period...

Some sacrifices are inevitable.

Who made them believe Bai Fei instead of him? Dying in battle was their own choice.

"Zhou Zhenzhuan!"

"It looks like that traitor has been provoked and has gone berserk! Next, we'll make a scene with that woman. This will definitely make him so angry that he'll force his way through the formation!"

Bai Yang and Tian Jian were both filled with joy that their plan had succeeded.

"Although the possibility of irritating Li Chunjun to the point of losing his mind and breaking through the formation is not high, as long as we have arranged it well, there may be hope."

Zhou Wujiu said, looking at Tianjian: "Is the formation adjusted?"

“It has been adjusted.”

Tian Jian said solemnly: "There are three batches of formations. The first batch of formations is displayed in the open, consisting of three fourth-level formations, one defense formation, one killing formation, and one trapping formation. The second batch of formations are hidden in the dark and can be activated in a breath at most. One is a sky-locking formation and one is a confusing spirit formation, both of which are fourth-level!"

He paused, his eyes gleaming, "The third batch of formations is a large formation that provides an overview of the overall situation. Once activated, it can link all the fourth-level formations together to form a fifth-level formation! Under the fifth-level formation, even if the traitor has more fourth-level talismans, or even a Nascent Soul-level combat puppet in secret, he will not be able to escape!"

"it is good."

Zhou Wuqiu smiled and nodded.

Bai Yang said, "Three fourth-tier formations in plain sight... aren't they a bit too many? What if the traitor sees that our formation is too powerful and is frightened and dares not enter the formation? Wouldn't it be a waste of all these preparations?"

"Only if the formation is strong can it dispel his doubts. If the formation is weak, he will see that there is a trick and will not dare to enter the formation easily."

Zhou Wujiu said calmly: "His biggest confidence must be the small teleportation talisman! Although our three formations are extremely powerful, as long as we don't expose the Sky Locking Formation, he will still be able to break into the formation and kill people!"

After listening to this, Bai Yang thought about it and realized that this was indeed the truth.

At this time, a Jindan cultivator suddenly stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Zhou Zhenchuan, Bai Fei, Zhan Wuji and others met the traitor, and...failed!"

"Failed?"

Zhou Wujiu's expression did not change much: "It is normal to fail. The traitor is so talented, if he is not confident, how could he be willing to take risks?"

After that, he continued, "Let the other Yuan Dan cultivators retreat towards us at full speed. The Royal City formation will protect their safety."

Finally, he asked, "How many people are there around that traitor? Can you tell me the exact number?"

The Jindan cultivator who reported the incident had an unpleasant look on his face: "It's one person."

"Eleven?"

Zhou Wuqiu frowned.

This is a considerable number.

With so many people invading their Da Shang territory, why didn't any news come from the local garrisons?

"The true teaching is not eleven, but one person!"

The Jindan cultivator quickly added: "It's Li Chunjun!"

As soon as these words were spoken, not only Zhou Wujiu, but also the Jindan people beside him, as well as Bai Yang and Tian Jian, all changed their expressions suddenly.

"Li Chunjun alone? Defeated Bai Fei, Zhan Wuji and dozens of other Yuandan!?"

"This is impossible!"

"I'm afraid that even the Yanhuang Sword Master back then couldn't achieve this level on his own! Unless he sacrificed his own flying sword and was seriously injured!"

Several people couldn't help but lose their voice.

"Huan Lie!"

Zhou Wujiu also emphasized: "Are you telling the truth?"

The Jindan cultivator named Huan Lie directly handed the jade talisman to Zhou Wujiu, and said with a heavy face: "According to what this surviving Junior Brother Hao said, Li Chunjun has become the second Yanhuang Sword Master!"

Yanhuang Swordsman! ?
"He has become the Flame Phoenix Sword Master?" "Didn't the news not long ago still have the style of the Flame Phoenix Sword Master? How come he has become the second Flame Phoenix Sword Master so soon?"

"If I remember correctly, that traitor has not yet cultivated to the Golden Core Realm!?"

If one can be called the second Yanhuang Sword Master without having cultivated to the Golden Core Realm, then how strong will his true combat power be if he cultivates further and reaches the Golden Core Realm! ?

Compared to the previous Yanhuang Sword Master Jiang Lingyun...

Stronger! ?
At this moment, another Yuan Dan cultivator suddenly said, "Zhou Zhenchuan, the Xu City Garrison just received a message that a distress signal from an elder was detected. He is being hunted by another Taixu Sword Sect cultivator... The pursuer is suspected to be Li Chunjun..."

"Tsuki City!?"

As the true successor of Da Shang, Zhou Wujiu also has some understanding of Da Shang.

He immediately determined that this city was only 130 miles away from the capital of the Shang Dynasty!

For a sword cultivator who can fly faster, it only takes one or two minutes to cross this distance.

Considering that the message transmission may have a delay of more than ten seconds, or even dozens of seconds...

"Quick! Formation, enter the formation!"

Zhou Wuqiu shouted loudly.

He didn't need to speak, all the monks turned into streams of light and shot into the city.

Bai Yang, Tian Jian and others are no exception.

As the formation had already been in a semi-open state, in just a dozen seconds, rays of light had shot up into the sky from a dozen high towers, forming a huge transparent light curtain that enveloped the capital of the Great Shang Dynasty.

Almost at the same time as this light curtain appeared, a sword light emerged at the end of the sky.

"It's Elder Cao!"

Someone immediately recognized the identity of the sword light.

"Behind him is the traitor Li Chunjun!"

Then someone pointed behind "Elder Cao".

"Save me! Zhou Zhenchuan, save me quickly!"

Elder Cao immediately activated his spiritual consciousness and sent it to the Great Shang City to ask for help.

For a moment, several Yuandan cultivators could not sit still and were about to take off into the air.

"No!"

Zhou Wujiu shouted and warned: "It's too late! Even if we leave the city now, we won't be able to save Elder Cao. Instead, we will fall into the trap of the traitor and be defeated one by one! Listen to my orders, hold the city!"

The Yuandan cultivator who was stopped by him froze in his tracks.

Everyone's face was filled with resentment.

but……

Considering the terrible record of Li Chunjun's battle, if only three or five people really rushed out of the city, what difference would that make between that and committing suicide?
For a moment, they had to stop and watch Elder Cao, who was using secret techniques to unleash his potential, running at full speed, while constantly cheering him on in their hearts.

Thirty miles, twenty-five miles, twenty miles...

But the more I looked, the more resentment grew in everyone's eyes.

fast!
too fast!
Li Chunjun's pursuit speed was so fast that he almost caught up with Elder Cao at a distance of ten miles.

Elder Cao fell into unprecedented despair when he saw that all the elders, including Zhou Wuqiu, were indifferent.

"No! No! No! Zhou Zhenchuan! Save me!"

he shouted.

The powerful divine consciousness swept through the void.

Hearing this cry for help, Zhou Wuqiu, Bai Yang, Tian Jian and others turned pale.

But they didn't dare to take any action.

at last……

Just when Elder Cao was still fifteen miles away from the royal city formation, Li Chunjun caught up with him.

The flying sword shot out with a sharp whistle and a torrent that tore through the void, and in an instant it crossed the distance between the two.

"Elder Cao, be careful!"

Some Yuan Dan shouted.

But more Yuandan monks couldn't bear it and turned their heads away.

"call out!"

The sword energy is whistling!

The Jindan elder, who had exhausted all his secret techniques, was simply unable to block the sharp edge of the Chixiao Sword and was pierced through by the sword in an instant.

Blood spilled into the sky!
The despair on his face turned into blood mist as his body was torn apart, and solidified in everyone's eyes.

"Bastard!"

"Li Chunjun!"

"This traitor!"

At this moment, in the royal city formation, countless Yuandan realm elders cursed angrily.

Even Zhou Wuqiu, the true disciple, is no exception.

The Golden Core Realm elder of the Chiyang Sword Sect was actually killed by Li Chunjun in front of him. How could he save his face? How could he, a true disciple, have any prestige?

Yes, face and prestige!
What really bothered him was not the murder of his own elders, but the negative impact this incident would have on him.

But then Zhou Wujiu thought of something else.

Take advantage of the situation!

After all, it is not very honorable to threaten the mortal family members of the monks. However, if you do something irrational under such a situation of common hatred and a common enemy, it is completely understandable.

Zhou Wujiu immediately gave an "angry" order: "Go, bring his mother up here! I will chop that bitch into pieces in front of him! Let's see if he is so heartless that he can watch this happen!"
