The northern entrance of Hongya Cave.
There were hundreds of demon corpses lying on the ground, including a wildebeest who showed its true form after death, which was two feet long!
Although the Jindan stage demon general here is blessed by the same clan, he still failed without any surprise when facing the three late-stage Jindan masters of the Yang family.
The three of them were cleaning up the fragments of this demon.
"Do it quickly. We must first step into the stalactite forest to explore. The earlier we go, the more hope we can find it. While the door holes on both sides of the east and west have not been broken."
"I heard that there seems to be a demon king in the Nascent Soul Stage in Hongya Cave. I don't know if the source of the information is reliable?"
"No matter what, as long as you go in and drill into the stone forest and the underground river, the demon king of the Nascent Soul stage may not be able to find us."
"That's true. I also heard that the two demon kings on the south side seem to be in a duel in the camp, and I think I have no time to take care of the rear..."
...
While the three brothers chatted, they quickly handled the scene and disappeared calmly at the entrance and rushed inside.
In the outside world, in the few days after coming here, many Jindan stage monks gradually heard some of the movements here. The truth and falsehood of many information obtained from exchanges are unknown, but they can provide some references more or less.
You can occasionally encounter some levels along the way, and there are some demon soldiers patrolling.
In order to be fast, the three brothers directly killed all the thunderous momentum, trying not to leave a living mouth.
However, after all, the demon clan is not short of talents. There are always some special races that have the talent to save lives, so they still convey the news that human monks have entered.
...
The battle between the two armies ended again today.
The Yuanlu Deer Demon King returned to his nest and sat quietly on the top. Below was the man who had just returned from his army and looked tired. It had been in high intensity for many days and consumed a lot of energy.
Controlling the eight-god golden lock formation changes and operates at all times, it requires a high level of operational ability for the coach, and every moment of continuous calculation is very brain-burning.
It also has a huge burden on the demon soldiers below, and it needs to keep running around and change formations. Fortunately, the herbivorous monsters are still in a good endurance, so it will be no problem to hold on for a whole day.
But the news from behind made them not happy.
A hole was broken in the north of Hongya Cave.
Three late-stage human golden elixir cultivators broke in!
Even though the Yuanlu Demon King urgently sent troops to block the entrance, the three of them had already lurked in and hid in the dense and deep and vast stalactite forest and the river below. At this critical moment, it had no time to search for the carpet-style.
Moreover, the gatekeepers on both sides of the east and west have also begun to ask for help frequently, claiming that there are more and more human Jindan stage monks. Today, they have sneaked out several waves during the day, and they are almost unable to hold on.
At this time, the Yuanlu Demon King felt very difficult. But when he was restrained by the Kuihu Demon King, these humans came to make trouble for him. This was really a disaster.
However, I did not have more troops to guard against them, which led to the phenomenon of losing sight of one thing and the other.
As for the demands of these humans -
Reed jade stalactite.
The Yuanlu Demon King originally got two copies, and he gave them to Dai Budong and Zhu Duyou. As for the rest, he didn't know where to hide it.
I can’t even have time to fight with the Kuihu Demon King all day, so how can I find such a fourth-level spiritual creature?
Even if there are really, is there enough people outside?
People are worried about the lack of people but not the equality. If others have nothing to do with themselves, they will definitely not give up and will continue to want to come in and look for it in person.
Hongya Cave is the home of the Yuanlu Demon King. How could others let their own home come in and out at will?
It was on the front line with the Kuihu Demon King Hu, and its home was turned upside down by a group of aliens?
Who can tolerate this?
"Three military advisors, I want to transfer some of the troops back to the Xuanwu area where the corpse is rejected. Come back to defend Hongya Cave. What do you think?"
The Yuanlu Demon King was speechless and could only find a way to move his troops, but he still planned to seek the opinions of the military division.
Mr. Huo nodded helplessly: "I have to do this."
Dai Budong and Zhu Duyou had no objection. There was really no way to do it now, so they could only temporarily demolish the east wall and repair the west wall.
Fortunately, the place where Xuanwu rejects corpses is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it should not be a big deal to draw some troops.
Of course, you must never give up.
If that place is thrown away, the Yuanlu Demon King will completely give up the southern plains and give up his position of hegemony. He will be blocked in Hongya Cave and cannot get out again. All his efforts will be done to the east.
Therefore, the nail must be kept, and only some of the troops can be brought back in moderation.
As for who to choose to bring back reinforcements...
First of all, Mr. Huo must not leave. It must stay and preside over the Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation. It cannot be done without it.
The Yuanlu Demon King cannot leave himself. It must keep a close eye on the Kuihu Demon King at all times. It cannot let it take action against the Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation, nor can it go back to deal with the reinforcements that Xuanwu refused the corpse. The two of them restrain each other and no one can act rashly.
In addition to being unwieldy and afraid of overturning the car in the middle, the group of demon generals under his command also had to defend various key roads here to resist the harassment and temptation of human monks outside.
Therefore, it is most suitable for Dai Budong and Zhu Duyou to request and bring back reinforcements this time.
Because their cultivation level is not yet in the Golden Pill stage, for safety reasons, the Yuanlu Demon King still arranged a Golden Pill stage demon general, plus a team of elite demon soldiers from the direct line to escort them to help them break through the blockade.
"Military Dai and Military Commander Zhu, this trip to Xuanwu's place to stop corpses is tight, so it's all up to you!"
The Yuanlu Deer Demon King stood up and bowed a long time.
The two of them dared not neglect to bow down and bowed down with a sonorous tone.
"I will definitely do my best and I will not dare to let the king down!"
"I have my token and handwritten here. When I see the guards there, Qingniu and Ziyang, and I will tell you."
Not long after, the demon soldiers and demon generals were in place. The Yuanlu Demon King poured wine and practiced it, watching the group of people disappear into the night.
...
late at night.
The enemy camp was lit up and the surroundings were pitch black.
Dai Budong, Zhu Duiyou led his team to hide and hide, carefully observing the rules of enemy patrols, and taking advantage of loopholes to smuggle levels one by one.
Fortunately, the Kuihu Demon King has high strength but not much strength, so the patrol force is indeed relatively sparse, which really makes them wander through the road and move forward in the dark.
But there are unexpected situations in the world.
Just as they were about to leave the radiation range of the two armies and fly far away.
They happened to meet a team of people here, and they were shocked when they met.
It turned out that the person who came was not someone else, but was the reinforcements transferred from the rear by the Kuihu Demon King. Xingye had just arrived at the front line and was escorted by two demon generals, with a number of just over a thousand.
Because of the recent tortuous wars and serious losses in force, the Kuihu Demon King was at a loss. In addition, he hit the gate of Hongya Cave, which was the closest to success, so he planned to increase his bargaining chips and gritted his teeth and ordered people to return to the rear to continue to mobilize troops to reinforce.
Although it has a small population, the old overlord has a strong foundation and it is not its full strength now that it is fighting outside.
You should know that no matter what is in this world, it is like cleavage, and there will always be a squeeze, and soldiers are no exception.
The two demon generals were ordered to go back, and they rushed back to the territory and showed the demon king's handwriting. The big mountain tops gathered together the little demon. Even though the strength numbers were uneven, they still fought a thousand people to help the front line.
It happened to happen that I met Dai Budang and Zhu Duyou who were smuggling through the night!
Taking advantage of the moment when both sides were stunned, Dai Buddhi was bold and careful and directly led the elite team of Yuanlu Demon King, a team of elite troops in the team to rush to kill. The other party was caught off guard and was stunned.
After a while of melee, the two led the team to break through successfully.
The camp gate of the Kuihu Demon King was wide open. General Xiong led his troops out to check what happened. He encountered two demon generals who were dizzy on the spot.
Looking at the reinforcements that were washed away, the ground was tilted and roared, and they couldn't help but roar, scaring the two demon generals to tremble.
...
In the tent of the king.
Looking at the two demons kneeling on the ground to apologize, the Demon King Kuihu cursed in front of the map.
"Bare! Thousands of reinforcements were actually dispersed by a few demons and they were asked to escape. What are you doing for?"
All the demon generals lowered their heads and did not dare to look directly at the demon king's gaze, which also embarrassed the two demons.
Lin Shan and the other two were very excited when they saw reinforcements coming. They knew that the current battle situation was anxious and it was not appropriate to damage oneself and internally, so they all spoke to comfort them.
"King, there is no need to blame the two generals for this matter. They are overworked when they arrive here day and night, and it is unexpected that they are not aware of being attacked for a moment."
"And these thousands of reinforcements are complex in composition, and they are all collected by the cave owners from various hills. They are a bunch of miscellaneous mobs, without strict training, and the formation is scattered and the military discipline is not strict."
"The corpses left behind by the enemy who broke through tonight seemed to be from the personal guard of the Yuanlu Demon King. It seems that they are escorting someone. The two generals accidentally broke through the conspiracy and it is a demerit. We should pay attention to what their purpose is first."
...
Although the two demon generals were not very smart, they still understood that someone pleaded for him and couldn't help but look grateful.
The Demon King Kuihu also reacted at this time, and did not worry about the embarrassing deeds of the two demons anymore. He began to think about what the small troops that attacked tonight were intended.
This is not difficult to guess.
Recently, scouts of the two armies were exploring the battlefield, and they also found many human monks passing by in a hurry.
Although the news of the fire in the rear of the Yuanlu Demon King, although the Kuihu Demon King is not very familiar with the specific strictness or seriousness, he has heard of it more or less.
Lin Shan and the other two realized that this might have been done by the major Jindan stage monks of Lu State who broke into the cliff forbidden area together, and they could not help but feel mixed.
What’s good is that they are now blocked from the door. This group of people is coming at the right time. They can involve part of the mind of the Yuanlu Demon King and make it lose sight of one thing.
What I worry about is that they originally came directly from the south, but the speed should be the fastest, but after the time delay, they were on the same starting line as everyone.
What’s even more depressing is that they fought against the Yuanlu Demon King on the front, and the old guys stole peaches from behind, which made people feel urgency.
The number of stalactites in Reiyu is limited!
Although there are vast underground stone forests with a radius of thousands of miles, the truly essence of the reed jade stalactites can only be called five at most!
First come first served, fast hands and slow hands!
Tonight, these enemy troops who broke through the siege can even think of it with their butts. The Yuanlu Demon King must be in a tight position, so he planned to send someone to the place where Xuanwu refused to corpse and dispatch troops to the rescue.
Once these people really bring their troops back, then the Yuanlu Demon King will send troops to help.
After the two met, their strength increased greatly and they were more than enough to defend Hongya Cave. Not only did the Kuihu Demon King have no choice but to deal with him, Lin Shan and others would not even think about going in to find the treasure.
Therefore, we must never let reinforcements come back easily!
You have to try every means to intercept and block them halfway, or just make them out!
"King, the Yuanlu Demon King this time attracted support from Xuanwu's place of refusing corpse, which shows that it is now in a state of panic and surrounded by enemies. This is our opportunity!"
The Demon King Kuihu nodded and waved his hand.
"It just so happened that reinforcements arrived tonight, and the King of Japan led the four thousand Erlang under his command to force the formation to kill it, which was a huge upside down!"
Although the Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation is powerful, it can trap seven teams and ten teams, and can it trap all the four thousand troops and eat them? The Demon King Kuihu decided to put all the bets on this time, and took advantage of the difficulty in taking care of the head and tail of the Demon King Yuanlu, and put on strong medicine.
Lin Shan and the other two hurriedly dissuaded them. It was not that they felt sorry for the family for the Kuihu Demon King, and that they didn't care if they didn't die anyway.
The key is that they put pressure on this side with strength. If the Yuanlu Demon King can't bear it and draw the other cave troops to resist, wouldn't it let the Jindan stage monks of Lu take advantage of the opportunity to enter and take the lead?
Three young people would never do this kind of thankless business and do wedding dresses for others.
"Otherwise, the king must not act voluntarily. Although this can be tried, but the loss is too great will damage the foundation."
Then, in order to consider the position of Kuihu Demon King, the three of them proposed to cut off the reinforcements in the place where Xuanwu refused to corpse.
Anyway, the Yuanlu Demon King could hold on for a while. Let the Jindan stage monks of Lu Kingdom harass and relieve the pressure. When they attract more attention and strength of the Yuanlu Demon King, the southern entrance will launch a general attack when the time is almost right.
They have the final say in their own hands, whether to fight or not, how to fight is the final decision, and there is no need to take the lead.
The characteristic of the Kuihu Demon King is to listen to advice. As long as these three people speak reasonably and are beneficial to it, they will most likely adopt it.
"So, according to the three military advisors, how about I send General Xiong to intercept reinforcements?"
"King, what's the use of dividing troops to block the rear? It will weaken our strength on the front line. It's better to set up an ambush in the middle and eat the reinforcements in one breath, completely burying the Yuanlu Demon King's thoughts, leaving them isolated and desperate! At that time, will it increase the chances of victory be greatly increased?"
The three of them walked to the front of the map in the tent, and under the eyes of the demon generals, they began to think about how to set up an ambush.
"From Xuanwu's Corpse Rejection Land to Hongya Cave, there are three routes to choose from!"
"The first one is a straight line, which is also the fastest and shortest line. The place you must pass through is Jingqi Forest."
"The second one is a little longer, but it has to pass through the swamp grassland halfway, so the army can easily fall into the quagmire, which not only seriously drags down the speed of the march, but also may also seriously reduce the number of troops."
"The third route is a big bend. If you walk from that road, you must bypass a meteorite basin. You will experience dense forests, canyons, hills and other places one after another. It is extremely steep and twists and turns, but it is better to have hidden roads..."
...
The three of them finished placing on the map and began to measure and make a decision.
The Kuihu Demon King and a group of demon generals looked at them with a rust mind than lazy to think about it because they knew they did not have many ideas for these three people.
After a while, the Demon King Kuihu still couldn't wait.
"Three military advisors, from what you see, which route will the enemy reinforcements turn back?"
Lin Shan touched his chin and pointed at the first road.
"When the Yuanlu Demon King led his troops back to Hongya Cave, he fell into a big fall in Jingqi Forest, and suffered heavy losses and lost strategic initiative. This road seems to be the fastest, most convenient and the most dangerous road. Most people will not make the same mistake twice, and most of the other party dare not take the risk and choose this road again."
Young Master Jiuyou shook his folding fan and continued to say.
"The second way is to pass through the swamp grassland. Unless the flying demon clan is able to move, the army will be inconvenient to move, and it will be slow to move. In addition, the road is full of plains, so it is easy to expose its whereabouts. If I were the leader, I would not choose this road!"
Zhong Shenxiu smiled and pointed to the third road.
"Since the two brothers have ruled out the first two, then the third route is the last choice for each other. This route is not only suitable for hiding around, but also forks, which makes people unable to predict in advance. It is most suitable for marching on the ground!"
The Demon King Kuihu nodded repeatedly, immediately pulled out an arrow token from the bamboo tube in front of the case and distributed it to the hands of the three.
Count it carefully and each person has seven arrow orders in his hand, which is equivalent to seven soldiers and horses.
Total total, there are 2,000!
"Three military advisors, I will stay here to restrain the Yuanlu Demon King, and the reinforcements from Xuanwu who came back from the place where the corpse-rejected area will be handed over to three!"
Lin Shan and the other two were overjoyed. This was the first time they had so many demon soldiers in their hands. You should know that there were only 200 soldiers in one cave. Now each of them has three cave soldiers in their hands.
In other words, each person can mobilize three demon generals and cave masters of the Golden Pill Stage, as well as seven hundred demon soldiers!
The first time the Kuihu Demon King delegated so many military powers to them and was assigned to them alone was a sign of enough trust!
Once this battle is fought, not only will it make great contributions, but it will also be able to seize how much spoils can it be seized? Lin Shan was worried that he would not be able to cultivate evil spirits. Isn’t this opportunity here?
However, there is a saying that the more soldiers are the better.
"King, the ones who stayed behind the place where Xuanwu refused the corpse are all elite troops of the Yuanlu Demon King. We apply to bring General Xiong and Flying Tiger Army with us, and strive to ensure that this battle is foolproof!"
The Demon King Kuihu was very generous and waved his hand.
Chapter completed!
