Chapter 474

Leizhou, Chen Guo Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao and Lord Tianyang Zhuang Zhen were confronting each other from afar, their Star-Plucking Tokens constantly flashing.

If someone who didn't know saw it, they would think the two were chatting.

At this very moment, most of the messages received in Lord Tianyang Zhuang Zhen's Star-Plucking Token were good news.

There were two messages that, although not bad news, couldn't be considered absolutely good news either.

In this rescue battle, the Tianyang Star Palace, including Lord Tianyang, and also ordering one patron from the Da Hong Imperial Court, dispatched a total of nine Eighth-Tier experts.

Among the nine Eighth-Tier experts, Lord Tianyang was already in Leizhou, and eight remained.

Previous reconnaissance revealed that Chen Guo's other two Eighth-Tier experts appeared in Songzhou and Danzhou respectively.

Therefore, Lord Tianyang specifically sent more manpower to these two prefectures.

Especially Songzhou, where three Eighth-Tier experts were sent directly.

The goal was very simple: to kill Peng Tiesheng, Cheng Yuexiao's right-hand man and most trusted Eighth-Tier expert.

In this way, they could severely injure Chen Guo and severely injure Cheng Yuexiao.

This was also the most important plan on the Tianyang Star Palace's side.

Therefore, Songzhou was led by First Elder Wang Kan, who had quite strong combat power within the Tianyang Star Palace.

Equipped with extremely strong combat power.

One Eighth-Tier late stage, one Eighth-Tier mid stage, and one Eighth-Tier early stage, three people besieging one Eighth-Tier early stage Peng Tiesheng; killing him should be very easy.

But unexpectedly, in the latest intelligence, it was this battle result that was supposed to be in the bag that had the first accident.

Peng Tiesheng was unexpectedly powerful.

In just one encounter, he severely injured the Eighth-Tier mid-stage Fourth Elder.

Subsequently, he severely injured an elder of the Eighth-Tier early stage.

Even more unexpectedly, the Sixth-Tier Dong Zhao successively severely injured two Seventh-Tier experts; if it weren't for Eighth-Tier experts meeting them, these two Seventh-Tier experts in Songzhou would have fallen.

Under the current circumstances, Songzhou, which was originally a sure thing, was not taken.

Eighth-Tier early stage Peng Tiesheng was also unexpectedly powerful, actually being able to fight First Elder Wang Kan to a draw, with Dong Zhao's help.

Currently, it seemed that the goal of the Songzhou battle situation could no longer be achieved.

This was considered bad news.

In Danzhou, two Eighth-Tier experts were sent, and the battle goal was to rescue the elites stationed in Chen Guo and at the same time contain Chen Guo's other Eighth-Tier expert Pei Ze.

The latest intelligence obtained was that the preliminary goal of the battle situation had been achieved.

Chen Guo's forces attacking the various branch palaces and academies in Danzhou had already begun to shrink.

The surviving parts of the forces of the various branch palaces and academies had already begun to organize a retreat.

All the news coming from other prefectures was good news.

Yanzhou, Jingzhou, and Xihai Prefecture each sent one Eighth-Tier and two Seventh-Tier experts to rescue, and at the same time, gave an eye for an eye to Chen Guo, who was attacking the Tianyang Star Palace.

Currently, the Eighth-Tier and Seventh-Tier experts in these three prefectures had already arrived and had already begun to act.

According to the requirements, they had to report the latest battle situation to Lord Tianyang every hundred breaths.

It could be said that except for Songzhou, it was all good news!

But Peng Tiesheng's strength made Lord Tianyang a bit worried.

When this Peng Tiesheng was Seventh-Tier, his combat power was average, just an average level.

This breakthrough to Eighth-Tier had a breakthrough improvement in combat power.

If he were allowed to grow, this person might be the main force sitting in Chen Guo in the future, and Cheng Yuexiao could free up his hands.

If there was an opportunity, they still had to find a way to eliminate the Eighth-Tier Peng Tiesheng.

Letting him grow further would be a disaster.

Compared to Lord Tianyang Zhuang Zhen's relaxation, Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao's expression was a bit solemn.

The disadvantage of insufficient Eighth-Tier experts was fully reflected at this moment.

Manpower was stretched thin.

But there was no way; Eighth-Tier experts were not like Fifth-Tier or Sixth-Tier experts, and they couldn't be piled up in a short time.

And this battle was imperative.

Under the current circumstances, battle damage would inevitably appear.

In war, how could there be no deaths!

But in the end, it depended on which side had greater losses, and it depended on whether the strategic goals could be achieved!

At least from now on, Chen Guo's strategic goals had been preliminarily achieved.

The Tianyang Star Palace's branch palaces and academies stationed in Chen Guo would inevitably be completely uprooted after today.

Suddenly, Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao's Star-Plucking Token received several more starlight messages in succession.

The content of the starlight messages was about the same.

Eighth-Tier experts of the Tianyang Star Palace had been discovered within Danzhou, Jingzhou, Xihai Prefecture, and Songzhou.

Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao was not worried about Danzhou and Songzhou.

In Jingzhou, firstly, Director Ji Bang was there, and secondly, Meng Yanhui, who was mainly attacking Leizhou, had also rushed over; these two, although their cultivation was both Eighth-Tier early stage, joining forces to deal with one Eighth-Tier early stage expert was not a problem.

Besides, during this period, they had also accumulated a bit of special power; erupting, they could injure the enemy, and besides that, Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao had other arrangements.

So Jingzhou was not a problem.

Now, what Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao was worried about was Yanzhou and Xihai Prefecture.

These two prefectures were actually Xu Jin's responsibility.

Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao had high hopes for Xu Jin, and Xu Jin's strength was also supported by battle results, but Xu Jin's cultivation was there.

Saying he wasn't worried would be a lie!

Especially since he hadn't received any battle reports from Yanzhou all this time.

Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao was a bit anxious.

If an accident happened in these two prefectures, Chen Guo's battle damage this time would be very large.

Although the academy-protecting arrays of the branch academies in these two prefectures had already been raised, it was okay to block Seventh-Tier experts for a while, but they definitely couldn't block Eighth-Tier experts.

This was Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao's worry.

Just as he was worried, Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao's Star-Plucking Token lit up again, and after just one glance, the worry in his eyes dissipated by more than half.

【Grand Master, one Eighth-Tier early stage and two Seventh-Tier experts invaded Yanzhou, and they have been completely wiped out; for the next step, please arrange, Grand Master.】

The moment he finished reading the starlight message, Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao's breathing became much lighter.

Wiped out!

Xu Jin actually killed the invading Eighth-Tier and Seventh-Tier experts.

This strength also proved that Cheng Yuexiao's worry was superfluous.

At the same time, it also completely locked the victory for Cheng Yuexiao's action this time!

In a battle, you don't need to bloom everywhere and win big everywhere.

You only need one big victory, and that's enough.

Cheng Yuexiao glanced at the confident Lord Tianyang; it seemed he hadn't received the battle report that the Yanzhou reinforcements of the Tianyang Star Palace had been wiped out.

Thinking about it, it was natural; since they were wiped out, naturally they couldn't send a battle report.

【Xu Jin, order the relevant combat personnel in Yanzhou, after cleaning the battlefield, return to the branch academy at the fastest speed, hold the academy-protecting array, and wait for the end of the big battle.

If you are uninjured, hurry to Xihai Prefecture.

Xihai Prefecture has an Eighth-Tier expert arriving, and currently, no one is containing them.】

【Understood, I will rush over immediately.】

Yanzhou, the moment he received Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao's starlight message, Xu Jin had just pulled out the Sumeru space of the Eighth-Tier expert Luo Yi he had killed.

After just one glance, Xu Jin had little interest.

This was a poor Eighth-Tier expert.

Of course, it was just a poor person in Xu Jin's eyes.

Ordinary wealth, such as Fifth-Tier and Sixth-Tier star jade tablets, including elixirs, were quite a lot.

But the Fifth-Tier or even Sixth-Tier heavenly materials and earthly treasures that Xu Jin wanted were not there at all. Thinking about it, it should have been used up by Luo Yi to break through to Eighth-Tier.

As for the Sumeru spaces of the other two Seventh-Tier experts, Xu Jin pulled one out.

In this Seventh-Tier expert's Sumeru space, there were six Fifth-Tier spiritual herbs and one Fifth-Tier divine soul-type spiritual herb, which was a much bigger harvest than the one on the Eighth-Tier expert.

As for the other one, Xu Jin didn't move.

He took the majority of these spoils of war, which was what he deserved.

That share had to be divided by Teacher Liu Qingzhu and that Dean Cao.

"Teacher Liu, I need to patrol other places. The Grand Master ordered that after you finish cleaning the battlefield, return to the branch academy quickly and hold the academy-protecting array."

"Understood, you be careful."

The next instant, the thunder wings behind Xu Jin shook, and he flew to the Yanzhou Star-Plucking Tower branch building.

Jingzhou Prefecture City.

An Eighth-Tier expert of the Tianyang Star Palace was leading two Seventh-Tier experts, frantically bombarding the academy-protecting array of the Jingzhou branch academy.

Director Ji Bang and Meng Yanhui, whose cultivation were both Seventh-Tier, were struggling to resist the bombardment of one Eighth-Tier and two Seventh-Tier experts of the Tianyang Star Palace under the amplification of the array.

However, the two were not just holding on.

During this period, both of them had accumulated a portion of special power.

Director Ji Bang, with Xu Jin's help, had realized the Earth Lei Lei Xiangxing Pattern to Eighth-Tier, and Meng Yanhui, also with Xu Jin's help, had realized the Gold Lei Lei Xiangxing Pattern to Eighth-Tier, and had also accumulated quite a lot of Earth Heart Earth Rhyme and Sharp Gold Rhyme.

While the two were struggling to resist the Eighth-Tier expert's attack, they had already secretly discussed choosing the right moment to erupt simultaneously.

Even if they couldn't kill this Eighth-Tier expert, they could severely injure this Eighth-Tier expert.

Relieving the crisis in Jingzhou.

Luoshui Hou Song Shoujie, who was hidden in the dark, was also waiting for the opportunity to make a move.

The Eighth-Tier experts of the Star River Battlefield couldn't be mobilized, so he, a Seventh-Tier mid-stage expert, was transferred over by the Grand Master.

After returning from the Seven Kills Secret Realm, Luoshui Hou Song Shoujie's cultivation had made another breakthrough, about to reach Seventh-Tier late stage.

With his combat power, erupting, and with the array's cooperation, he might be able to severely injure an Eighth-Tier expert.

At worst, he could repel them.

But he was not in a hurry to make a move; the Grand Master ordered him to make a move at the most critical moment in Jingzhou.

That way, the probability of success would be the greatest.

Because the most critical moment in Jingzhou was also the moment the enemy was about to succeed, and also the moment they were most careless.

Luoshui Hou Song Shoujie had already established contact with Director Ji Bang and Meng Yanhui, and the three discussed choosing the right moment to join forces.

But just at this moment, suddenly, outside the Jingzhou branch academy, three rays of starlight aura suddenly rose into the sky, with an incomparably majestic aura.

All were Eighth-Tier auras.

Especially one of the Eighth-Tier auras, which was so powerful that it made people terrified.

The speed was also fast to the extreme.

The next instant, the Eighth-Tier mid-stage elder Xiang Zhen of the Tianyang Star Palace also discovered these three auras and instantly turned around with a change in expression.

But as he turned around, the aura of that extremely terrifying Eighth-Tier expert had already rushed behind him.

With just one slash, amidst the brilliant starlight, he slashed this Eighth-Tier mid-stage expert from the high sky, who fell while spraying blood from his mouth.

This terrifying Eighth-Tier expert instantly caught up, and with the second slash, the physical body of the Tianyang Star Palace's Eighth-Tier mid-stage elder Xiang Zhen was torn apart!

The primordial spirit escaped, and the third slash had already been slashed down!

Primordial spirit annihilated!

At the same time, the other two Eighth-Tier experts had already severely injured their respective Seventh-Tier targets, one of whom was about to be killed.

This Eighth-Tier expert, who was outrageously strong, swung the fourth slash and killed this Seventh-Tier expert casually.

The next instant, this Eighth-Tier expert, who was outrageously strong and shrouded in mysterious starlight, suddenly turned his head and looked at the many experts of the Jingzhou branch academy.

Starlight flashed, and he killed his way toward the Jingzhou branch academy with a saber!

Director Ji Bang, Meng Yanhui, and Song Shoujie were all shocked.

In the next instant, the saber light had already come across the sky, and countless starlight in the world gathered into a giant starlight blade, directly turning toward the many experts of the Jingzhou branch academy!

"This is."

Director Ji Bang was astonished, and for a moment, he hadn't reacted.

But Meng Yanhui reacted at the first opportunity, and also understood who this person was!

This was wanting to take advantage of the situation!

"Quickly notify the Grand Master!" Meng Yanhui roared angrily.

Luoshui Hou Song Shoujie, who had just appeared, was stunned; to ask the Grand Master, shouldn't he send a starlight message?

Why roar?

But in an instant, he understood.

"I have already notified, the Grand Master will arrive immediately!" Song Shoujie mobilized the power of the academy-protecting array to resist this slash with all his might, and also roared out.

At the same time, Director Ji Bang suddenly rushed into the sky, the earth-yellow starlight condensed into a long spear, all the Earth Heart Earth Rhyme was injected at this moment, and he bombarded with a spear, facing this slash!

Boom!

The spear light shattered, Director Ji Bang vomited blood and flew back, Meng Yanhui's strike injected with Sharp Gold Rhyme also instantly supplemented, and Song Shoujie also attacked with all his might!

Joining forces, the three barely caught this mysterious expert's full-strength blow.

"Eh? Not bad!"

Amidst the light laughter, this mysterious expert's second slash slashed over again!

Since he had already made a move, he was bound to take a few people away.

Whoosh!

The second slash slashed down.

Director Ji Bang, Meng Yanhui, and Song Shoujie mobilized the power of the academy-protecting array to take it head-on again, all vomiting blood and falling back, all severely injured.

The star jade tablets on the academy-protecting array were all shattered, and it collapsed on the spot!

"A bit of ability!"

In a flash, the third slash slashed down on the three simultaneously.

But just at this moment, the Jingzhou Star-Plucking Tower branch building suddenly shone brightly, and a ray of starlight as thick as a bowl bombarded toward the saber light, directly scattering half of the saber light.

But the saber light still slashed down!

In an instant, Director Ji Bang bore the brunt, and his physical body was slashed into pieces.

Primordial spirit emerged!

"Damn! Lord Cangming, you are too shameless!"

Director Ji Bang roared, and after sending the last starlight message, layers of flames suddenly emerged on his primordial spirit, and he burned his primordial spirit and rushed toward Lord Cangming.

At the same instant, Director Ji Bang's voice transmission appeared in the minds of Meng Yanhui and Song Shoujie, "You run, their goal is you!"

Whether it was Meng Yanhui or Song Shoujie, neither was a hesitant person.

Seeing Director Ji Bang burning his primordial spirit, they each used their means to escape for their lives without hesitation.

Song Shoujie directly used the Seven Kills Escape Dragon Stake that had been prepared long ago, and while escaping far away in an instant, he crushed the spatial shifting emblem again and disappeared again.

While Meng Yanhui continuously crushed two spatial emblems and escaped far away and disappeared in an instant.

Boom!

The saber light slashed down!

Under the huge gap in strength, even if Director Ji Bang burned his primordial spirit, he was slashed into nothingness by Lord Cangming with one saber!

However, it also won extremely precious escape time for Meng Yanhui and Song Shoujie.

Looking at Meng Yanhui and Song Shoujie who had already disappeared in the distance, Lord Cangming, who had just killed Director Ji Bang, was a bit depressed.

These were all future experts of Chen Guo, and he hadn't achieved full success!

The next instant, in his anger, Lord Cangming slashed toward the Star-Plucking Tower branch building and the academy-protecting array that had just stopped him.

Boom!

Amidst the starlight explosion, the dean of the Chen Guo National Dao Academy Jingzhou branch academy, who was presiding over the Star-Plucking Tower branch building, vomited blood and fainted, and more than a dozen Fifth-Tier and four Sixth-Tier experts died on the spot!

Hundreds of Fourth-Tier and another dozen Fifth-Tier experts, life or death unknown, fainted on the spot!

At this point, Lord Cangming glanced at the Chen Guo National Dao Academy Jingzhou branch academy and nodded with satisfaction!

The goal was achieved!

The Tianyang Star Palace's strength was weakened.

Chen Guo National Dao Academy's strength was also weakened by him, it was just that he hadn't achieved full success!

As for being called out by name?

It didn't matter!

As long as there was no evidence and his face was passable, it was fine.

The next instant, Lord Cangming waved his hand, and the two Eighth-Tier experts who rushed over with him escaped far away and disappeared!

This team he led personally succeeded; I wonder if the team in Xihai Prefecture succeeded?
