Chapter 698
Occupying the two military fortresses, Wei Yuan released many reconnaissance teams to explore the layout of the enemy troops around.
These reconnaissance teams were centered on an eight-drive chariot, supplemented by more than a dozen cavalry. Although the chariot speed was not fast and could not run faster than the Liao iron cavalry, the firepower defense during movement far exceeded the cavalry, and it was a mobile life harvester.
These reconnaissance teams had just been sent out when one was surrounded by hundreds of Liao cavalry.
But the Azure Void army was not afraid at all, relying on the chariot, defending while retreating. The chariot's artillery fire and flying sword guns were simply the nightmare of the Liao cavalry, and their heavy arrows could not penetrate the chariot armor at all.
In the end, five hundred Liao cavalry paid the price of a hundred corpses, but still failed to eat this small team of more than a dozen people, letting it kill out of the encirclement and go away.
The reconnaissance team was just a tool Wei Yuan used to attract Northern Liao's attention. The real reconnaissance was actually completed by various Dharma Forms.
On the desolate earth, a small flying mouse was running, avoiding the pursuit of a fox behind it. They ran and stopped, and a strange tree suddenly appeared in their field of vision.
The tree was no more than a zhang high, sparse and without many leaves, but it was covered with fruits the size of watermelons. Each fruit was dark green, with different shades.
I don't know why, the surroundings of that tree were exceptionally desolate, almost no grass grew. Within a few miles, it was dusty yellow, and only this tree was green.
The flying mouse found a hole under a stone and drilled into it immediately. Then it poked its head out of the hole again, observing the situation around, mainly whether the fox had followed.
But what appeared in front of it was a strange, rough, and somewhat peculiarly handsome face. The Liao youth grinned and smiled at the palm-sized flying mouse: "Hello, dinner!"
A cold light flashed, and this Liao person held a heavy arrow and stabbed at the flying mouse!
This arrow moved the spiritual energy within a hundred zhang, and this Liao person was surprisingly a top powerhouse among the Dharma Forms!
The flying mouse screamed and turned around, wanting to escape back into the hole, but it immediately found that its body was firmly bound by the other party's magic power, and it flew towards the arrow tip against its will.
In a hurry, it grabbed the arrow edge with one claw!
This arrow, which was enough to pierce most defensive magic treasures, was actually blocked by its claw!
The little flying mouse then let out a roar like a dragon's chant, which actually made the Liao person feel a slight dizziness in his brain. By the time he came back to his senses, the little flying mouse had already revealed its original body, turned into a flying mink, summoned a void ripple in front of it, and jumped into it.
This Liao person opened his bow and arrow like lightning, shot an arrow into the ripple, faintly heard a whimper coming from the ripple, and then the void ripple disappeared.
He soared into the sky and searched everywhere, but did not find the trace of the flying mink, so he knew that the distance the little guy traveled in the void exceeded his perception range.
"Pity..." He shook his head, returned to the tree and sat down, his eyes lowered, and began to doze off.
Wei Yuan was adjusting the models of the two Liao war fortresses in the Military Secret Hall. To move the cannons to the city wall, it was necessary to make certain modifications to the military fortresses. The modification plan had been optimized by the Human World Renjian Yanhuo. At this moment, the construction was carried out first, waiting for the artillery to be transported from the rear.
Just at this time, Wei Yuan suddenly felt something in his heart, and a void ripple appeared in front of him, and the flying mink jumped out from it. But there was a huge wound on the back of its body, and judging by the shape, it should be an arrow wound.
Seeing the flying mink seriously injured, Wei Yuan was shocked and hurriedly summoned True Person Chuhe and Sun Yu to diagnose and treat the flying mink. The two had their own division of labor, Sun Yu was responsible for treating the injury, and the old Daoist was responsible for soothing emotions.
During the treatment, the flying mink embodied everything that had just happened.
Although it was only an image embodied by the flying mink, when seeing the eyes of that Liao person, Sun Yu and Chuhe subconsciously increased their Dao power in an instant, and Wei Yuan's heart also tightened.
The flying mink had already begun to travel through the void, and he could still shoot and chase, seriously injuring the flying mink. This Liao person's cultivation and archery were extremely terrifying, and his strength was far above Sun Yu's. I don't know how he compared to Feng Chutang and Feng Tingyu, but in terms of cultivation realm, this Liao person also surpassed the two.
The strange tree discovered by the flying mink was about 1,200 miles away from the town city where Wei Yuan was currently located, which could be considered deep behind enemy lines. I don't know why, Wei Yuan, who had always loved spirit plants, felt very uncomfortable and even somewhat disgusted when he saw this tree.
Wei Yuan thought for a moment, then touched the flying mink's head and said: "Don't be afraid, I will avenge you."
At this time, He Fang received the summons and had just arrived. Wei Yuan pointed to the tree and asked: "Do you recognize this tree?"
He Fang's face changed and he said: "This is a Red Earth Tree! They planted it here?"
Afterwards, He Fang explained in detail. The Red Earth Tree looks like a tree, but it is actually a life between a monster and a spirit plant. Its tree body exposed to the ground does not look big, but in fact, the underground roots can extend to tens of miles away.
If there is enough time, the entire range of tens of miles underground and more than ten miles deep will be its roots.
It only takes two or three years for this tree to be planted to suck up all the spiritual energy and vitality within a range of nearly a hundred miles, turning this place into a dead land of absolute domain, and it will not be restored for a hundred years under natural conditions.
The fruits formed after the Red Earth Tree absorbs vitality are highly poisonous. As long as the human race smells a little bit of breath, they will be poisoned and die. The Liao race is the same.
It can be said that this tree is a tumor between heaven and earth, and apart from destruction, it has no use at all.
The Liao race originally planted Red Earth Trees along the border of the northern mountain gate to prevent the expansion of the northern mountain gate's territory. And after they occupied the land of the northern mountain gate in recent years, they would also plant Red Earth Trees to completely destroy the vitality of this area and dig the foundation of the northern mountain gate.
According to He Fang, the Red Earth Tree seen by the flying mink should have been planted for only more than a month, but it has already made no grass grow within a few miles, and the roots have probably gone more than a hundred zhang deep.
And Wei Yuan sees more. This Liao person specifically sits and guards under the Red Earth Tree, which should have nothing to do with cultivation, but is waiting for himself.
Although from the perspective of time, it is unlikely that this Liao person knows that Wei Yuan is here. He specifically waits here, and what he is waiting for should be other high-level cultivators of the young generation of the Grand Void Palace, to temper himself with life-and-death battles and turn the blood and flesh of his opponents into the foundation on the road forward.
But Wei Yuan automatically ignored the possibility that he was waiting for someone else. Just now, through the flying mink's memory and eyes, Wei Yuan felt that the Liao person glanced at himself!
Wei Yuan's nameless fire rose instantly, feeling offended!
Since this person wants to invite high-level cultivators to fight, Wei Yuan feels that he should not be humble.
However, to prevent the enemy from cheating, Wei Yuan said to He Fang: "Notify the mountain gate, ask the True Lord on duty to press the formation for me, check the heaven and earth there with the mountain gate array, to prevent the enemy from ambushing Master Yu Jing. I will go and meet that kid."
Although far away from the Azure Void, Wei Yuan cannot get the blessing of the Azure Void realm power, nor can he use the causal attack of the Peerless Dao Domain.
But Wei Yuan's luck is sufficient at this moment. In the Human World Renjian Yanhuo, the Dragon Eagle, the Wenwu Guards, six Dharma Forms, and hundreds of Dao Foundations are all waiting for the enemy, and the most important thing is that the girl Yin Yang still has the power of a complete blow.
Therefore, in terms of fighting alone, Wei Yuan has not been afraid of anyone.
However, he thought carefully and felt that he should exclude the eldest senior sister, and the teacher who will become a Dharma Form in the future should also be put outside. As for Bao Yun, her Dharma Form can block the realm power and block the Human World Renjian Yanhuo, plus the Heavenly Demon Wonderful Dance that may exist... so another person was added to this list.
