Bearing the blue sky

Chapter 114 The Chase

The three realms of Confucianism and Taoism: the realm of the scholar!

Zhu Ge had once heard a saying: "A scholar's spirit is boundless, and he speaks freely about the world!"

At this moment, the phantom of the scholar-realm elder from Jianshui City traversed the heavens and earth, colliding with the giant mantis.

The mantis brandished its two arm axes, as if trying to capture the illusory figure.

"boom!!"

The two collided, and waves of air and shockwaves swept across the sky and earth.

The next second, an old man from Jianshui City stepped out of the air, holding a scroll made of bamboo slips, and soared into the sky.

The mantis followed closely behind, soaring into the sky.

Without much talk or action, the two immediately engaged in a fierce battle in mid-air.

And flying high in the sky, they naturally cannot affect the battlefield below.

"kill!!!"

Squads of armored soldiers emerged from the spout of Jianshui City, their bodies radiating a thick aura of blood.

Soldiers who specialize in martial arts, specifically in the art of warfare known as the Way of the Soldier!

These soldiers are only at the first realm, but their qi and blood are connected and combined in the formation of the army, so each of them can exert the power of about the second realm.

Soldiers were at the head of the line, followed by a densely packed mass of earth, stones, grass, wood, and metal.

puppet!

Jianshui City is famous for its purple pottery, which is naturally made by artisans who are also excellent Mohist mechanics.

Therefore, most of the puppets that appeared looked like purple pottery, and were indeed purple pottery puppets.

These purple clay puppets are extremely numerous, and like Russian nesting dolls, one after another, more nesting dolls are separated from the body.

However, these purple clay puppets do not seem to have any power fluctuations; they are just ordinary puppets.

Unlike the second-realm mechanic in Menglapo Third Village who created puppets equivalent to first-realm strength.

"So spectacular!"

Looking back, Zhu Ge felt a pang of emotion, but quickened her pace.

Because at this time, many demons, ghosts, monsters and gods also emerged from the dense forest.

There are many demons, followed by ghosts, few spirits, and no gods.

Logically speaking, the birth of ghosts should be as rare as that of gods.

But judging from the current situation, perhaps because too many living beings have died, many ghosts have been born by chance.

The trees of spirits are mostly tree spirits and stone monsters, each with a clumsy body.

Although it has some combat ability, it is not particularly strong.

The main force is still these tens of thousands of demons.

Groups of spirit beasts and transformed beasts charged toward the soldiers.

"Eat, eat, eat! Eat human flesh!"

"If we break through these iron lumps today, the entire population of Jianshui will become our food tomorrow!"

"I want to devour many people! I want to become a demon of the Three Realms!"

Countless demons howled and charged toward the soldiers.

The soldiers all had resolute expressions and did not react much to these monsters. Instead, they formed square formations under the command of several second-realm commanders.

"boom!!!"

Blood energy and demonic energy collided, and the army faced off against the demon race.

The great battle has begun!

"A single-line formation!"

"Long Snake Formation!"

"Back up! Back up! Raise your spears!"

"Scatter! Surround and kill!"

Under the moonlight, the commanders' voices echoed throughout the scene.

Many formations had vacancies, or were filled with slightly weaker soldiers.

Presumably, the war came too quickly, too suddenly, and too fiercely, leaving little time to replenish the ranks with new soldiers.

When Zhu Ge saw the still-wet blood on the soldiers, he knew that the war here was much more intense than he had imagined.

It is estimated that there will be a battle every ten or twenty minutes.

Moreover, it was initiated by the human race.

Zhu Ge didn't know what the city lord was thinking, or why he was being so radical.

But he didn't have time to think about it anymore.

With countless demonic beasts swarming out, naturally some of them discovered him.

"There are humans over there!"

"Hahaha, I'll go kill them, I'll go kill them!"

"Leave it to me! I'll go after them, you guys continue fighting the people of Jianshui City!"

"You go! I'm not going! I'm going to hunt down that fleeing human!"

Many monsters get excited as soon as they see Zhu Ge.

Who would want to go and fight a lump of iron from Jianshui City?

In comparison, a lone human warrior from the first realm is naturally more desirable.

"You sons of bitches!"

The giant praying mantis in the sky saw this and was so angry that it cursed out loud.

The old man from Jianshui City looked at Zhu Ge, who had lured away most of the demons, with a puzzled expression.

The blessing song attracted a small portion of the demons on the battlefield, numbering in the tens of thousands.

There are countless demons, ghosts, monsters and gods on the battlefield, so how could there be a lack of demons?

However, there are quite a few people on the human side.

Therefore, even though it was only a small part, it was enough to tilt the balance of the entire battlefield in favor of Jianshui City.

However, Zhu Ge was completely oblivious to the situation in Jianshui City at this moment.

There were many demons behind him, but Zhu Ge still had a way to escape.

"Swift Fist!"

"The Incense-Lighting Movement Technique!"

Zhu Ge's body moved at lightning speed.

Liu Jianjian transformed into a hedgehog, shrunk in size, and was held in Zhu Ge's arms.

The swordsman was simply retracted into his spikes by Liu Jianjian.

"call out!!!"

With the three streams of blood energy circulating repeatedly, Zhu Ge's speed soared, instantly leaving a large gap between himself and the many first and second realm cultivators behind him.

But he could roughly understand the situation behind him, especially the situation in Jianshui City.

Why not lend a hand to Jianshui City? — Zhu Ge glanced back at the many demonic beasts and a thought struck her.

Therefore, he deliberately kept his speed at a certain level.

The goal was to prevent the demons behind from catching up, while also preventing them from completely losing track of the others.

"It's just ahead! Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"Don't try to steal the credit from me!"

"He's mine! Delicious human flesh!"

The demons didn't find anything wrong with it and were eagerly chasing after Zhu Ge.

In most people's hearts, they were at this moment relieved to have escaped the great battle with Jianshui City.

Jianshui City launches attacks every now and then; who can withstand that?

Many demons have already decided to slow down their pursuit and let the human boy run a little longer.

However, half an hour later, some of the demons realized something was wrong.

"How long have we been chasing them?" a wolf asked a wild dog beside it.

Before the stray dog ​​could answer, an eagle in the sky chimed in: "Stupid dog, we've been chasing them—my goodness, we've been chasing them for half an hour?!"

Their conversation was overheard by many demons.

"Oh no! This martial artist is also trying to fool us!"

"No, I can go back a little later, but I can't be that stupid. I'll get eaten by the giant mantis!"

"Speed ​​up! Speed ​​up!"

Some of the second-stage transformed demonic beasts immediately increased their speed.

But as they sped up, Zhu Ge also sped up.

And so, a chase began on the vast and boundless land.

Yunnan is mountainous with many valleys and few flat areas. It is humid and the temperature is not low.

Therefore, there are many snakes, insects, rats, and ants, as well as various kinds of monsters.

Some time ago, the Plague God Sparrow and the Red River Dragon Python gathered almost all the demons, ghosts, monsters, and gods in the entire Red River Prefecture.

After the battle with Yuanyang City, most of the demons, ghosts, spirits, and gods returned to the mountains and forests.

This has led to an abundance of demons, ghosts, monsters, and spirits in the mountains and forests!
