"Junior brother has great skills!"

The Third Shixiong looked up at the tornado and couldn't help but say.

"Not just that!"

Lin Jue said, and shouted again:

"Pour the blades!"

Wan Xinrong immediately conveyed the order.

Then soldiers brought over the blades that had been prepared, basket by basket, and poured them down along the city wall.

These blades were not made with care, just made thin and sharp, and there were no requirements for the shape; after they were poured down the city wall, Lin Jue immediately controlled the tornado to move slowly over, swept them up, and then controlled it to keep a certain distance from the city wall, wandering in the yaoguai's formation.

At this time, the tornado, in addition to sweeping up sand, stones, grass, and trees, sweeping up yaoguai and armor and weapons, and sweeping up many sparks, also swept up many bright blades, becoming a meat grinder that pierced through heaven and earth.

One could see its top touching the dark clouds and thunder and rain, and its bottom connecting to the earth; although it was large at the top and small at the bottom, even the bottom end that touched the ground, the tip of the ram's horn, was as big as a courtyard, and it was even harder to imagine how huge its top that touched the clouds was.

The wind was violent! The whistling was harsh!

"Crack!"

The flagpole broke and was swept away by the wind.

The flames of the torches in the soldiers' hands could no longer be seen clearly.

The fire oil in the barrels seemed to be sucked up by a dragon, swept into the sky.

The next moment, the wooden barrels also flew into the sky.

Yaoguai with smaller bodies were almost instantly swept into the sky, spinning and dancing in the sky, and a chorus of miserable screams came.

There were also yaoguai that crouched low, lying on the ground, their claws deeply embedded in the mud, their whole bodies already pulled until they were suspended in the air, and constantly shaking; even with such effort, they could not escape the fate of being swept into the sky.

Only those huge yaoguai could resist the gale.

And as long as they were swept into the sky, they were placed in the gale, sparks, and blades, unable to help themselves; either they constantly collided with other yaoguai, or they were constantly burned by sparks, or they were constantly cut by blades, and finally they were flung out in the high altitude; the miserable screams in the sky mixed into the sound of the wind, as if even the sound of the wind had changed.

Thousands of eyes on the city wall stared blankly.

Everyone's hair and cloaks were frantically whipping their own faces.

Even though they were at a distance, a hurricane also came from the city wall, making people have to try hard to open their eyes and hold onto the wall to stand steady.

In the increasingly dim sky, countless scarlet sparks flickered in the tornado; sometimes thunder descended, outlining its silhouette; sometimes fire oil exploded, adding to its majesty; and the yaoguai and all kinds of miscellaneous objects spinning inside seemed to have become its decoration...

It was both spectacular and shocking, and awe-inspiring!

This was the great power of heaven and earth!

It was also the Daoist's skill!

On the city wall, many generals and soldiers, as well as strange people and talented scholars, and even Lin Jue's own senior brother, were deeply shocked by this force.

Compared with it, those stone giants several zhang tall, the huge black bear, or the giant tiger that could jump onto the city wall at once, and the towering tree with facial features walking, were nothing.

As for that giant snake like a dragon? In front of this tornado that pierced through heaven and earth, what could it count for?

For a moment, they only felt that this was not power that a human could possess.

Corresponding to this was the growth of confidence.

Only Lin Jue looked down, eating small Yuan pills to replenish his magic power while frowning—

Although the tornado was powerful, its range was limited after all, and these yaoguai were brave and not afraid of death; if the tornado was on the left, they would attack from the right; if the tornado moved to the right, they would climb the city from the left; if the tornado was wreaking havoc in the middle, they would attack from both sides.

Moreover, there were those huge pigs, oxen, horses, elephants, yakshas, bears, and tigers; this tornado still couldn't shake them.

However, these were all secondary.

The most important thing was that Lin Jue saw the Wang Mu of the West's determination among these yaoguai, in their numbers, in the attacks from all four sides at the same time, and in their fighting spirit.

The Wang Mu of the West vowed to destroy the four surrounding cities!

Such a yaoguai king who had achieved the Dao and had been dormant for a long time, the power sent out must definitely exceed the power in Ziyun City.

Just at this moment, someone came to report:

"Lin Zhenren! Grass and trees in the city are suddenly growing wildly! This scene! It is exactly the same as Yunmeng County at the beginning of the year!"

The sound of the wind was too loud, and one had to shout to be heard.

Has it come?

Lin Jue thought in his heart.

"That is the Sun-Swallowing Great Array, which must be set up in advance to take effect; you quickly take people to go and cut down all these grass and trees!" Lin Jue said, and then said to his own fox, "There is yin energy attacking from underground; you go underground and burn it, and be sure to be careful!"

"Yes!"

The man shouted and went to carry out the order.

The fox jumped backward, jumped off the city, and happened to fall into a family's courtyard, went deep underground, and disappeared.

Just as this change subsided, shouting came from that side:

"Lin Zhenren!"

The defending general was fighting a wolf yaoguai while pulling out his sword, and signaled downward with his eyes.

Lin Jue looked back—

At this time, yaoguai were still constantly climbing onto the city wall by various means, fighting with the soldiers and bean soldiers on the city wall; the six stone giants were also still fighting fiercely with those huge yaoguai; and below, in addition to those huge ox, horse, pig, and elephant yaoguai, more great yaoguai had appeared.

Two stone giants, fully six zhang tall, were twice as tall as those summoned by him and his junior sister, and almost the same as the one that came to probe last time.

A dragon, a real dragon with horns, as thick as a small house, slithered over, just like a black river.

A gray rhinoceros five zhang tall.

And a fierce tiger riding the wind.

These were existences that the tornado could not shake.

They were also existences that the city wall could not block.

Lin Jue's expression also became solemn.

He took out another bottle of small Yuan pills refined by the Second Shixiong, counted a few and stuffed them into his mouth to restore magic power, reached into his bosom and touched, and pulled out a bean pill about the size of a pigeon egg.

Yes, this was actually a "bean".

The next moment, the bean pill flew out.

Not only did it fly out of the city wall, but it flew higher and higher.

After it flew dozens of zhang away and twenty zhang high, it was actually invisible to the naked eye, but the next moment, it grew rapidly, appearing in front of everyone in an extremely shocking posture—

That was a huge shadow, as if a mountain had been added to the sky, falling rapidly.

At this time, Long Bo was like the god carrying the mountain in the legend, twelve zhang tall in total, broad-shouldered and round-waisted, with angry eyes wide open, his face painted with bright red colors, his whole body covered in armor, holding a golden iron hard whip in his hand; not only was he taller than what he saw that night, but with a physical body and armor, he was also much more shocking than the semi-illusory remnant soul that night.

Such a giant fell to the ground with a bang!

Kneeling to unload the force, he raised the golden whip.

In an instant, the entire battlefield was looking at him.

How tall is twelve zhang?

The yaksha ghost Lin Jue first encountered was less than one zhang tall, but it could be described as big as an ox; the black bear spirit that intercepted him outside Shu Village, the stone giant summoned by the rat yaoguai, and the rhinoceros general under the Tuo Dragon King were all only a little over one zhang tall, but they had extremely strong pressure.

The stone giants summoned by his junior sister and Lin Jue just now were three zhang tall, which could already be considered behemoths.

At this time, this Ziyun City below, because it had the role of defending against the enemy for the capital, the city wall was four zhang high, which was already enough to fall people to death.

Those two huge stone giants were six zhang tall, which already made the soldiers in the city terrified and desperate, shouting that the city wall could not be defended.

This Long Bo bean soldier was twelve zhang tall!

Although it did not match the thirty-zhang-tall Long Bo in stories and rumors, looking at it with the naked eye now, it was like being level with the mountain and shoulder to shoulder with the clouds, making people feel that the giant gods above the nine heavens were nothing more than this.

"Boom!!"

Lightning exploded behind him, and the original astonishing thunder and lightning seemed to have become a bit delicate.

Such a giant slowly turned his head and looked at the city wall.

He even had to lower his head slightly.

The Daoist on the city wall looked up and met his eyes:

"This is a yaoguai general under the Wang Mu of the West, the yaoguai king in the northeast region of Qinzhou; please help me eliminate the yaoguai!"

The giant still slowly withdrew his gaze.

The next moment, under the gaze of thousands of eyes, this huge and terrifying giant god had already begun to lift his feet.

"Rumble..."

Thunder accompanied the sound of footsteps, heavy rain poured down, and the giant god's armor shone brand new in the rainwater, reflecting the lightning.

And he slowly stepped forward, walking into the yaoguai army formation.

Without the Daoist's command, he looked at the most conspicuous and huge yaoguai in the yaoguai army formation by himself.

After having a physical body, his strength was much stronger than the state of the remnant soul before; he didn't even look at the wolf yaoguai, tigers, leopards, giant bears, and yakshas below, and stepped over them directly.

It looked slow, but it was actually just because his body was too big, which was an illusion caused to people.

Just look at how many yaoguai he stepped over with each step, and you will know; even if his strength was not enough now, and his movements could not be called flexible and agile, they could definitely not be called slow.

Several zhang per step, and he reached the depths of the army formation in a few steps.

The opponent was unstoppable, and he was also like thunder.

The dragon swam halfway, suddenly raised its head and rushed up, opened its bloody mouth, and bit toward Long Bo, but was directly grabbed by the Long Bo giant god, and lifted up as if lifting a big snake.

Those two six-zhang-tall stone giants rushed over from left and right, but he held the dragon in his hand, swung his fist backhanded, and in the earth-shattering loud noise, directly smashed one stone giant; then his right hand held the golden whip and turned to swing, and in the thunder, the other stone giant's head was directly smashed to pieces, and even the splashed "broken stones" didn't know how many yaoguai were smashed to death.

Even a "broken stone" flew over and smashed onto the city wall, which was also as big as a washbasin; the stone was smashed to pieces, and the city wall also broke a hole.

The giant rhinoceros charged over, and he leaned over to wrestle with the giant rhinoceros horn.

The fierce tiger rode the wind and drove the clouds, and he raised his hand and pulled it out of the clouds.

The yaoguai spat out clouds, which only reached his waist; the great yaoguai used water and fire, but were directly rushed and shattered by him.

Now his strength was still not enough, and he could only barely drive this body, resulting in movements that were not smooth enough, and reactions that were slow, and he could only do some simple actions, but even so, he still captured dragons and beat tigers.

The tornado had no effect on him; the heavy rain that descended seemed only to cleanse his body; the dark clouds were his canopy, and the thunder was his cloak.

The generals and soldiers in the city, as well as the strange people and talented scholars, had never thought before today that the yaoguai under the Wang Mu of the West would be so powerful, and that this war and magic battle would be like this.

Not to mention others, even Lin Jue felt amazed.
