Chapter 679: Trouble Arises Again

The Guanzhong court, in preparation for this military campaign, made the following deployments:

The southern army was led by Li Baichen, and the main force of the army was also here, originally stationed at Tong Pass, and now having captured Luoyang.

The northern army was commanded by Ma Lin, serving as a flanking force; the plan was to pass through Zhi Pass and seize the three cities of Heyang, but at this moment they were still stationed in Puzhou.

The northern army had to follow Li Baichen's orders, and the two armies were originally set to join forces at Luoyang.

The logistics base was set in Huayin County, at a distance from Tong Pass and

Three squads made one battalion, three battalions made one regiment, three regiments made one brigade, and three brigades plus one guard battalion made one division, totaling ten thousand and eighty-odd men.

In a haze, Han Bing felt the space around him instantly sealed, his body pulled by a suction force, not knowing where he was headed.

If before coming in, the title of master was something he had forcibly placed on Xu Chuan's head, now he fully deserved the title of master.

Seeing that ball of true fire blazing in Xu Chuan's hand, Cao Guangfa, lying on the ground, turned ashen-faced; he knew very well that in a fight, he would only be destroyed, and that kick just now had most likely been pulled.

Three knocks on the door immediately put an end to the whole family's program of domestic bliss. Li Fengqin went to open the door and welcomed in an old acquaintance; Sun Houzi hurried forward to shake hands and exchange pleasantries as soon as he saw him.

But there was one problem: these people had all been hypnotized, and many questions lay dormant with no answers forthcoming, yet no one had found a solution so far, and now they could only place their hopes on Qiao Jiayue.

"I know this may be sudden, but I don't want to leave this world with regrets." Seeing him say nothing, Chuxin continued softly.

Jun Xi still could not help turning back, watching the coffin being buried bit by bit under the earth, his hand clenching tightly into a fist, tears silently falling once more.

"This... he was imprisoned by that dog emperor inside Mingyu Tower." Concubine Die looked hesitantly at Jun Jie, not knowing what he intended to do.

"Besides, this is a clue left behind at the cost of life after the main body died — it absolutely cannot be wrong!" Shi Tian's clone said firmly.

This kind of divine object was born with innate spirituality; within the sea of consciousness, it could be nourished, and at the same time it could also increase its compatibility with the master of the sea of consciousness.

At the moment of collision, a substantive flame spread from where the two types of true essence met; almost instantly, a sea of fire filled the entire arena.

The arena was full of a sea of fire, and many dog demons ceaselessly tore at and devoured the heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals around them, their battle cries so heart-rending; Zui Xiaoyao employed the Drunken Heart Art, his dreamlike and illusory footwork already conjuring four figures around Huodou, each wielding a Soul-Capturing Iron Fan, attacking Huodou from all sides.

Lingying snorted coldly and said, "Hmph! Just you!" Lingying slashed out a sharp steel claw, grabbing at Yin Xie, but Yin Xie's arm clamped down like a pincer, seizing Lingying's arm and making it impossible for Lingying to move an inch.

"I also believe that with the Old Dowager here, absolutely no one can harm my family. Since I entered the palace, I no longer have the energy to attend to many matters, but whenever I find out who is scheming behind my back, I will certainly not let them off lightly!" Consort Dou said coldly. She was already cold and alluring by nature, and these words made the Old Dowager break out in a cold sweat all over.

As a pale blue ray swept across the sea, the surging ocean instantly turned to solid ice; then a blue silhouette traced an arc and flew toward the sky, as rays of pale blue light shot out in all directions, instantly turning everything around into ice sculptures.

"What fierce fire — the pollen falls into its flames but evaporates, unable to penetrate its body." Yue Jirou looked in astonishment at the man of fire at the epicenter; a scorching heat made the four demons unbearably hot, sweat pouring off them like rain.

"There seems to be the aura of someone fighting a magical beast not far away." Hong Ling suddenly spoke up, then pointed in the direction indicated.

The current Nangong Rou, even before joining the sect, was already practicing two heaven-grade cultivation arts and one heaven-grade martial technique; if the reward from this martial competition were added on top of that, it was believed that before long, when her cultivation advanced further, ascending to the top hundred of the Mountain and River Ranking would also be highly possible.
