Chapter 494 Going deep behind enemy lines (2)

Although Ji Zhan and Yi Qing are called seniors, in terms of cultivation aura, Ji Zhan and Yi Qing are almost the same as Yan Zhuyin. They are both soul emperors.

But there is no doubt that their aura is much stronger than that of the Shi family brothers.

After all, the Shi brothers have just broken through to the Soul King level.

But originally Xuanwu Marquis Shishan sent the Shi brothers to lead the troops this time because they and Lu Yuan were once teammates and their relationship was closer.

Otherwise, the Xuanwu Army should also send a Soul Emperor general to lead the troops.

"We are the generals of the Xuanwu Army, Shi Mo, Shi Mo." Shi Mo Shi Mo said immediately.

Yan Zhuyin also introduced himself seemingly calmly, "Commander of the Fire Army, Yan Zhuyin."

Ji Zhan and Yi Qing both smiled and nodded.

Yi Qing said with a smile, "Our five legions all have personal relationships, and we are all fighting partners this time. There is no need to address me so politely, just call me by my name."

Ji Zhan also nodded and said with a smile, "That's right. It's too strange to call us seniors. We are all colleagues on the battlefield. If we can't follow the seniority, you can just call us uncle."

Yi Qing and Ji Zhan were indeed of the same generation as Yan Zhuyin's father, Yan Xian, and the fathers of the Shi brothers. However, although they were contemporaries of the same generation, there was still a gap in talent between them.

They are just ordinary people from their respective families, so they only achieved Soul Emperor cultivation in their sixties.

However, since they have the talent to practice and have the chance to become the Soul Emperor, they are already much better than most people.

After all, some people can only be great soul masters in their entire lives. Not to mention soul emperors, not even soul masters can break through.

Therefore, although their cultivation levels are different, they are indeed of the same age.

So there is no problem for Ji Zhan to say this.

"In this case, let's call the two seniors uncle." Shi Mo said with a smile that was very understanding of the world.

Yan Zhuyin nodded. She didn't know much about the ways of the world, so Ji Zhan just agreed to whatever she said.

"I didn't expect that people from our four legions would arrive first this time..." Yi Qing said curiously, "General Tianying...did he forget about this?"

The men and horses of their four major legions have all arrived at the meeting place, but why not only did they not see anyone, but not even a human figure appeared.

"Yeah... Why hasn't the boss come yet..." Shi Mo was immediately curious and whispered.

But just when they were doubting...

In front of them, there suddenly appeared a sound like a piece of cloth being cut with a sharp weapon, and then they saw a sharp point blooming in the air, and then a crack suddenly appeared in the space.

Only then did they see clearly what that sharp edge came from.

It is a huge scythe in three colors: blue, purple and gold, with invisible fluctuations on the edge of the scythe.

"What is this?" Everyone was stunned.

but……

The Shi brothers and Yan Zhuyin both recognized that this was Lu Yuan's number one spirit, the Death Star Demon Scythe, so they all regained their composure and knew that this was Lu Yuan's ability.

When they were in the underground abyss before, they were brought out by Lu Yuan using Source Control. Naturally, as soon as they saw the Death Star Demon Scythe, they understood that this was Lu Yuan's use of space ability.

Both Yi Qing and Ji Zhan later recognized the Death Star Scythe. After all, Lu Yuan was now famous. As Lu Yuan's most iconic martial spirit, the Death Star Scythe was already known by many people in terms of its name and appearance.

Some people even think that the Death Star Scythe will become a powerful inherited martial spirit similar to the Clear Sky Hammer, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tower, and the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus Rex.

After Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong give birth to offspring in the future, the Death Star Demon Scythe will become the second powerful inherited martial spirit of the Qibao Glazed Sect besides the Qibao Glazed Pagoda.

This also makes up for the regret that the two great martial arts spirits, Seven Kills Sword and Bone Dragon, cannot be passed down.

Even the Death Star Scythe is more powerful.

Soon, a huge crack in space appeared in front of everyone, and in the dark void material, the roar of war horses and the sound of iron hooves hitting the ground came.

Immediately afterwards, a team of about five to six hundred people rushed out of the crack in the space.

The two leaders were Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong!

Behind them were the 300 Sky Shadow Army led by Lu Po and the 300 Sky Dou Royal Knights led by Gao Kai, Cheng Qixiao and Russell.

Like the 400 elites sent by the four major legions, the 600 people Lu Yuan brought this time were also soul masters.

"Everyone, I'm sorry for being late." Lu Yuan held the Death Star Scythe and said with a slight smile.

"The last general Ji Zhan (Yi Qing) has met General Tianying!" At this time, both Ji Zhan and Yi Qing hurriedly stepped forward and cupped their hands and said, "I have met the master Ning Shao."

"No courtesy." Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong were accustomed to their high status at this time and waved their hands.

"Thank you, General, and thank you, Young Master Ning." Ji Zhan and Yi Qing then stood up.

"Boss! Rongrong!" At this time, the Shi brothers did not salute like Ji Zhan and Yi Qing, but directly greeted them with a smile.

Lu Yuan was not surprised at all. When Marquis Xuanwu said that he would send troops to support his mission, he had already guessed that it would be the Shi brothers.

He smiled and nodded and said, "Today is the time for us to fight side by side again."

"Yes, after the competition, the six members of our Tiandou team will fight side by side again." Ning Rongrong said with a smile.

Yan Zhuyin did not dare to look at Lu Yuan, but at this moment...

"You think so? Zhu Yin?" Ning Rongrong took her hand affectionately at this time.

"Yes... we haven't fought side by side for a long time..." Yan Zhuyin said softly at this time.

"What a pity. Yan Yan is no longer in the army, so we are still missing one person." Shi Mo said with some pity.

"Senior Sister has such a temper, and even if Senior Sister wants to come, the teacher won't allow it." Lu Yuan shook his head helplessly and said.

Yi Qing and Ji Zhan were immediately envious. They envied Yan Zhuyin and the Shi brothers for having such a close relationship with Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong.

But there is nothing to be done about envy. Their age is destined to make it impossible for them to become teammates with Lu Yuan.

They could only obey the family's orders and try their best to be on good terms with Lu Yuan.

After the brief reminiscing about old times was over, it was time to get down to business.

"Okay, without further ado, the scout said that four days ago, a supply force from the Star Luo Empire passed through the Principality of Hel and was transporting it along the Lima Plain to the Star Luo Empire army in front of Jialing Pass." Lu Yuan said.

"According to the time, we should have arrived near King Barak City today. We should set off now to intercept the enemy's supply army."

"Follow the general's orders!" Yi Qing and Ji Zhan said immediately.

Lu Yuan nodded, and then said, "Everyone, be careful not to get entangled with the army. The main purpose is to burn the food and grass. This mission is to ensure that not a single grain of food and grass is left to the other side. By the way, check the firepower you carry." Oil……"

Suddenly, the faces of Yi Qing, Ji Zhan, Yan Zhuyin and the Shi brothers all became visibly embarrassed.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan understood. They probably didn't prepare kerosene, but it didn't matter.

His right hand passed by the star eclipse on his left wrist, and he threw out hundreds of bags of kerosene prepared in advance.

"This is the kerosene I prepared. Please bring two bags each of you." Lu Yuan said.

Anyway, Star Eclipse's current storage space is very large, and he can't hold so many personal items. The extra space is used to store luggage, food, and various items that may be used.

This is used to meet the needs of different situations.

"Yes!" Yi Qing immediately shouted, "Everyone come up and get the kerosene in order, and remember what the general said!"

Ji Zhan, the Shi brothers and Yan Zhuyin all gave orders to the soldiers behind them.

"Yes!" The four hundred soldiers of the four legions stepped forward one by one to get the kerosene and carry it with them.

"Remember, after the battle begins, follow my orders and don't be reluctant to fight." Lu Yuan said.

"Okay, that's all I have to say, now we have to go on a mission." His face became extremely serious.

"Okay, let's set off now!" Ji Zhan said immediately, and he immediately took out a map and said, "General, if our current destination is King Barak City, the shortest route is to bypass this forest. Luck If it’s good, we can get there in two and a half hours and see the opponent’s supply troops.”

"Two and a half hours?" Lu Yuan looked strange.

"Yes, if you take into account the marching speed and the physical strength and morale of our soldiers, two and a half hours is the best." Ji Zhan thought Lu Yuan was dissatisfied that the marching speed was too slow, so he immediately explained.

This speed is actually the average marching speed of this assault team, not the full marching speed.

If the whole army marched at full speed, the speed could indeed be increased by at least half, but even the soul master and the hybrid soul beast war horse might be half dead from exhaustion when they reach their destination.

At that time, let alone a surprise attack on the enemy, they might even be surrounded and defeated by the enemy.

So Ji Zhan suggested not to march too fast.

"No, no, no, I mean, there's no need to be so troublesome." Lu Yuan said with a chuckle, "To reach the vicinity of King Balak City, actually... it doesn't take that long, and of course, it doesn't require us to be tired from running."

At this moment, he raised the Death Star Scythe in his hand, with a sharp look in his eyes, "The structure of the space is overturned, broken, and the blood is flowing!"

"Fifth Soul Skill! Source Control!" The soul ring belonging to the Dark Devilgod Tiger shone with black light, and then Lu Yuan wielded the Death Star Scythe and opened the space rift again in front of everyone!

This time, the space crack completely opened a door, and in front of them was the colorful black void matter.

Lu Yuan smiled slightly and said, "It only takes four to five trips and we should reach our destination."

Yi Qing and Ji Zhan couldn't help but slowly opened their mouths.

…

Half an hour later...

In a primitive jungle, there were rustling sounds.

"General, we saw the opponent's supply troops." Yi Qing looked at a team that seemed to be transporting a huge amount of food and grass on the plain outside the jungle, coming from their side, and he suddenly said to Lu Yuan.

Yes, this is the raiding team of the Tiandou Empire this time.

It took less than an hour for a thousand people to cross thousands of miles and arrive at the plain area near King Barak City.

This is also the power of Lu Yuan's fifth soul skill Source Control.

After all, Lu Yuan could even move the people of the Principality of Hel to the Kingdom of Barak temporarily, which covered a distance of thousands of miles.

Not to mention that the distance from Jialing Pass to King Balak City is actually less than 400 miles.

However, Lu Yuan did not start the space teleportation instantly during these four hundred miles and arrived all at once.

Instead, it was divided four times, which was also Lu Yuan's current limit, opening a portal across a hundred miles of space.

Fortunately, opening the portal does not matter the number of people. After all, a space portal can last for a period of time. As long as people pass through the portal, they can reach the next location.

If you want to teleport a thousand people, you just need to keep maintaining the space door. If you want to be more efficient, you just need to open the space door wider, that's all.

Of course, only Lu Yuan can do this, such as opening a larger space door and enabling long-distance teleportation.

Not even Bone Douluo can do this.

Thanks to the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's original bead ability and the secondary enhancement of arcane energy, Lu Yuan had this extraordinary spatial ability that transcended common sense.

However, there is still a limit to his space teleportation, which can only span a distance of a hundred miles at a time.

Therefore, Lu Yuan and others also passed through four space teleportations and arrived at the location of King Balak's capital.

This immediately made Yi Qing, Ji Zhan and others shocked by Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan is probably the only one in the entire continent who can do this method of opening a portal.

Lu Yuan ignored these things. He looked in the direction outside the jungle and saw a long team walking on the flat plain.

The main body of this team is all men wearing cool earth-colored linen clothes. They are all bare-shouldered, but their thin arms are pushing the single or double wheels in front of them that are filled with linen bags and yellow straw. Cart.

Although there were many animals pulling carts in the team, generally speaking, there were more skinny men and constituted the main body of the team.

On both sides of the team were soldiers wearing armor and holding weapons. Behind the team, there were more than a dozen knights on horses, slowly following the team.

It's just that... there were very few military escorts next to the supply troops, which made Lu Yuan frown a little.

He felt something was wrong. Did the other party not know that they might come to rob food and grass?

Or do you think you can't guard against him and just break the jar?

But at this time, Lu Yuan could no longer think too much. He directly ordered, "Everyone listen to the order! Prepare for a surprise attack!"

"Yes!" Immediately, a team of thousands of people in the jungle responded immediately.

"The feast... begins!" Lu Yuan shouted, the Death Star Scythe appeared in his hand, and then his eyes were filled with murderous intent, "Kill!"

"Kill!" Immediately, the thousand-man squad moved directly, sprang out from the jungle, and rushed towards the Star Luo Empire's supply army!

The iron hooves of the war horse and the violent leap of the powerful soul master directly kicked up smoke and dust. The powerful force directly brought up a green wave in the woods where they were hiding, and leaves flew on their blades.

The silver light-armored cavalry broke out of the green waves and gathered into a wild storm that undulated along the blades of grass.

"Enemy - attack -" The Star Luo Empire soldier who was escorting the baggage just shouted, but the next moment...

He covered his bleeding neck and fell there in disbelief.

The killing begins.
