Chapter 946

This was Long City Pass, which had never been the main passage for the Northern Barbarians to enter the pass—unless it was a surprise attack, they generally didn't walk here. Even if a Celestial expert led a small number of elite soldiers—usually this number generally did not exceed five thousand—to forcibly fly over this pass, it was also very easy to be attacked from both sides. Long City, where Bai Lang was located, was fifty miles south of the pass. It was quite good as a route for small troops to go out of the pass.

In fact, going out from here, one could directly bypass the back of the Tatar army attacking the majestic pass where the Xuanwu Army was located. After a round of cavalry surprise attacks, one could prepare to take heads. Bai Lang had indeed received a letter—it was a paper crane. After flying over, it turned into a letter with a "poof." "I knew it was written by this old rascal, asking me to get a few Celestials to fill the quota. Saying it so lightly!" Bai Lang hummed a few times, but still set off with the Yeluohe cavalry.

He didn't need to consume true essence to fly the Yeluohe cavalry over. They walked slowly and unhurriedly through the passage of Long City Pass. This time, they also brought thousands of auxiliary soldiers, driving four-wheeled carts with suspensions behind them. As long as these box carts pulled up the boards and unloaded the horses, connecting them head to tail could form a simple cart-fortress defense line. It wasn't prepared for the Yeluohe cavalry, but simply to protect these auxiliary soldiers and supplies.

These large carts carried the grain and horse feed needed by the Yeluohe cavalry, human armor and horse armor placed during the march, spare arrows and bowstrings, tents and sleeping bags for camping, and even the cooking stove carts that accompanied them and the carts for craftsmen to forge ironware. Of course, they also brought a lot of coal and iron materials, ready to repair at any time.

This was prepared for a long journey. If one relied purely on robbery to maintain, one could do without it. "Sigh, at least be a bit regular." Bai Lang said.

The Yeluohe cavalry didn't need a second or third horse because their warhorses were already spirit beasts. Their true Qi was connected to them, their endurance was extremely exaggerated, and their load-bearing capacity was also very large. Bai Lang rode the green horse in the first place, or rather, it should have been a green horse and a white horse. However, after being infused and super-lifted by his Three Fires Returning to Origin Skill true essence, fire scales grew on this horse, growing on the ribs, chest, both sides of the neck, and the rear hips. The red scale armor was like a gem, and because of this, flames would often roll up on this horse.

The mane and tail had turned into long hair like flames, and the whole horse looked very heroic—it matched Bai Lang, who was wearing sable fur—this guy still coughed a few times every day, and he didn't look strong, still looking like a consumptive ghost. Two iron halberds were hung by the saddle. As for long weapons? No need, because Bai Lang decided to turn Qi into weapons. Under the gathering of fire-attribute true essence of his Three Fires Returning to Origin Skill, he could naturally turn into various long weapons.

Bai Lang didn't need to rely on other weapons to take shape; his cultivation had already arrived.

The 1,800 Yeluohe and the matching 3,000-plus auxiliary soldiers were passing through the pass rapidly. Less than an hour after setting off, these people had already stepped onto the wilderness outside the pass. Bai Lang didn't think there would be such a thing as a surprise attack—if everyone didn't have Celestials, then such a thing could happen. However, if everyone had Celestials, sensing hundreds of miles away, with hearts and minds a thousand miles away, where was there any room for a surprise attack?

It was estimated that it had to be a Celestial of the Taoist or Buddhist sect, using talismans made of precious materials or other things to be able to shield the exploration of Celestials of the same level for a short time. The Celestials of the Confucian sect couldn't do this.

Even if a martial arts Celestial practiced the assassin's way of hiding breath, he probably couldn't completely sneak into a Celestial's "absolute defense circle." He could only launch a powerful long-range attack after getting extremely close, causing the opponent to be caught off guard and hit.

The Northern Barbarians were now approaching the majestic pass, and the four Celestials gathered together. Their troops also gathered in one place—this made the supply pressure very great. Hundreds of thousands of cavalry gathered together, and in a few days, a large area of grassland would become wasteland, because they certainly had to bring hundreds of thousands or millions of sheep, otherwise there would not be enough food. And the two Great Wu Celestials in the local area also quickly gathered together. If they were separated and killed, it would be a joke.

Even so, the pressure on the two of them was also very great. If there were no accidents, after a great battle, the two of them would likely lead their troops to defeat and retreat, and the pass would be broken. After the Northern Barbarians died thirty or forty thousand cavalry, they would kill their way into the pass. If they were unlucky, these two generals might even be killed, and the troops under their command would be wiped out—historically, there was no such disadvantage. Generally, it was three to two or four to three. Now it was two to one. These two great generals were afraid they couldn't hold on.

Fortunately, Bai Lang was approaching. This point could be sensed by the six Celestials at the majestic pass. The fire clouds were constantly approaching. Ordinary people, even Grandmasters, couldn't sense it, but Celestials could feel the scorching heat coming from the air—this was a feeling, and also a friction between divine senses. "Everyone, why stop here? Being hesitant is not satisfying! Since everyone has soldiers and generals, then simply have a good fight! Either I kill you all, or you kill me! How about it?"

Bai Lang hadn't arrived, but the long roar had already arrived, and the endless fighting spirit in his words was soaring—this person was indeed very eager to fight.

When the Northern Barbarian Celestials heard this, they all laughed loudly, "Exactly! Why be hesitant! Come and fight!" They drove their respective troops, and strange phenomena appeared in the sky. The Qi of the Azure Wolf and White Deer gathered and directly manifested. And the two Great Wu generals also used the power of the majestic pass and the military formation to show the Xuanwu of the turtle and snake, looking like they were ready to be beaten.

Fire clouds rolled in the sky, and a crimson fire dragon rolled and twisted in the clouds. This was Bai Lang arriving. The Three Fires Returning to Origin Skill plus the Yeluohe military formation turned into a fire dragon baring its fangs and brandishing its claws. Bai Lang didn't say much, directly gathering the Qi of the military formation from dozens of miles away. As his palms crossed and flames swallowed and spat, it turned into a large saber. Bai Lang used a simple "Force Splitting Mount Hua" move. The saber light and fire force stretched for a hundred miles, and the world was all red.

The fire dragon's scales and mane bristled. Amidst the long dragon roar, it killed its way along the saber light and fire force. The opposite side also roared continuously like a blue wolf under the moon. The silver giant wolf combined with the giant deer with gorgeous horns and the eight-legged heavenly horse and directly collided with the fire dragon that came to conflict. The four giant beasts strangled each other endlessly in the sky, and Bai Lang's saber force was also forcibly restrained by the spears and lances swung by the two Celestials. At this time, Bai Lang had already broken into within a few miles. With a spin of his hands, a sixteen-foot-long fire-red burning horse spear appeared in his palm.

Bai Lang urged his horse to rush forward, directly raising his horse spear and killing his way over. This strike directly enveloped all four Northern Barbarian Celestials. This was Bai Lang's intention to start a decisive battle. ===== CHAPTER 947 =====
