Chapter 167: The Unstoppable Mass Charge, the High Priest Shi An Who Died with His Eyes Open

The military killing formation presided over by Li Dingguo showed its power immediately after its first appearance.

Hongmei, who was several miles away from him and moving forward at the same pace as him, was naturally not idle either.

She led the two thousand warrior cavalrymen of the Qinglong Camp into this battle, and presided over the military killing formation, which was launched at the same time as Li Dingguo.

Different from the dark yellow giant bell phantom that Li Dingguo showed, the military killing formation presided over by Hongmei, the martial arts form manifested by the formation’s magical power was the phantom of a mythical beast, Vermillion Bird, that was nearly a hundred feet in size.

As the two thousand cavalrymen who formed the military killing formation were enveloped by the blood and smoke of the killing formation, after the killing formation’s magical power was activated for the first time, the figures of these soldiers also disappeared instantly!

The only thing left on the spot was the shadow of the mythical beast Vermillion Bird, which was a circle smaller than the dark yellow bell not far away.

Just like the military killing formation that Li Dingguo is currently presiding over, the two men now each lead two thousand elite cavalry soldiers to form a formation and charge. Compared with the military killing formation that the Eighth King Zhang Xianzhong had activated at that time, it is five or six times larger in both scale and size!
The terrifying power displayed by these two large military killing formations is far beyond what Zhang Xianzhong and Zhang Kewang could achieve during the battle of Tianjiazhuang!
“Chirp…”

The fiery red phantom of the divine beast, the Vermilion Bird, raised its head and chirped a few times. It then flapped its huge pair of wings gently and immediately soared nine feet into the air, like a red lightning bolt, shooting towards the Jiehu soldiers in the front.

“Woooo…”

Its pair of huge fiery red wings flapped gently, and countless flames like stars, flashing dazzling red light, appeared in an instant.

These flames were like the twinkling stars in the sky, floating in the air, seemingly slow but actually fast. The flames, which looked slow and were only the size of a fist, fell on all the enemies within a three-mile radius along the way as soon as they appeared.

The landing points of these flames were very precise. No white Hu people in the area were missed, and no cattle, sheep or other living creatures were harmed!

Those white barbarians who were set on fire let out sharp screams one after another, but after just a few breaths, they were burned to ashes by the inextinguishable hot flames on their bodies!

The miraculous thing is that except for their bodies and souls, which were burned by the flames emitted by the phantom of the mythical beast Suzaku, the various items they carried were still preserved intact.

The military killing formation presided over by Li Dingguo, after launching the killing formation magical power for the first time, transformed into a huge phantom of the Xuanhuang Chaos Bell, flying forward at a rapid speed.

With Li Dingguo’s current spiritual power, the power of the formation can last for about an incense stick of time.

All the white barbarians within a three-mile radius along the way had their souls shattered by the continuous sound waves emitted by the Xuanhuang Chaos Bell phantom, and died silently, leaving only a large number of corpses lying on the ground, lifeless.

The military killing formation presided over by Hongmei activated the killing formation’s magical power and transformed into a huge Vermillion Bird, which swept along the way. All the white, Hu, and Jie soldiers and civilians within a three-mile radius along the way had their bodies and souls all burned to ashes!
This is not because the military killing formation presided over by Hongmei is more powerful than the military killing formation presided over by Li Dingguo.

In fact, the killing power unleashed by the military killing formation presided over by Li Dingguo was much more powerful than that of Hongmei, in terms of killing range, lethality, and speed of killing the enemy.

It’s just that the image of the mythical beast, Vermillion Bird, emitted flames that were too strange, which created this illusion.

A few miles to the right of Li Dingguo, Xiao Douya, who was in charge of leading the two thousand soldiers of the Xuanwu Camp of the navy and launching a surprise attack in the military killing formation, appeared much more violent after the killing formation’s magical power was activated!
This military killing formation, composed of two thousand soldiers from the Xuanwu Camp, was transformed into a mythical beast, a white tiger, nearly a hundred feet in size, after the killing formation magic power was activated by Xiao Douya, the leader of the formation!
As soon as the big white tiger took shape, it leaped up, roared, and leaped forward.

Whenever it encountered a large number of white Hu soldiers and civilians in front of it, it would open its mouth wide, and a golden light would spurt out from its bloody mouth, instantly turning into a dozen golden swords.

These golden swords, like huge guillotines, flew around and accurately chopped off the heads of the white barbarians they met along the way, leaving no one behind!

This is the attack steps that Xiao Douya, Hongmei and Li Dingguo discussed together after the formulation of this round of attack plan: At the beginning of the war with the remnants of the Jiehu, the Fuxing Army immediately launched the magical attack of the military killing array to conduct actual combat tests.

Although the magical attacks launched by the military killing array have one major drawback: they cannot last long.

In every war, the killing array magic can only be used once or twice in a day, and no more than three times at most.

Otherwise, the blood and energy of the soldiers forming the military killing formation would be exhausted, causing the killing formation to disintegrate on its own, and the soldiers, exhausted of their physical strength and blood and energy, would collapse to the ground, and would not be able to think about continuing to fight.

As for the most powerful trump card of the Fuxing Army, Li Dingguo, Hongmei and Xiao Douya must find out as soon as possible how powerful the killing array’s magical attack is in actual combat so that they can have a clear idea of ​​it.

In the future, if we encounter powerful enemies like the Later Jin Tartars or the Jin merchants, and if a fifth-level martial arts master appears on the other side, will we be able to rely on the military killing formation to contend with him or even defeat him?

These questions need to be answered as soon as possible.

Now the conclusion has been reached: Li Dingguo, Hongmei and Xiao Douya, together with their elite warriors, form a military killing formation that is capable of confronting some great masters of the fifth level of martial arts.

The prerequisite is that this great master did not lead a large army to form a military killing formation to attack.

“No!”

“Ah…”

Shi An had just rushed out of the tribal temple. Seeing such a tragic and one-sided battle, he was immediately furious and roared in anger!

“Don’t panic!”

“My fellow warriors! Gather towards me and form a formation to meet the enemy!”

“The enemy is only composed of three generals at the fourth level of martial arts, who have formed a military killing formation with their soldiers. Our Jie warriors are more than capable of handling them!”

With the various inheritances left by his ancestors, Shi An certainly knew the power of the military killing formation.

The Jie tribe has been escaping far outside the Great Wall and has survived to this day, and they still have inherited two sets of powerful military killing formations.

His own tribe had thousands of soldiers and generals, who, together with himself and the patriarch of this Jie tribe, had already trained the military killing formation to mastery.

If the tribe’s warriors gather quickly enough, they can quickly form two military killing formations, with themselves and the tribal chief each leading a team of tribe soldiers to fight against these mysterious enemies.

“Quick! Run towards the high priest!”

“With the High Priest here, we will definitely be able to launch a counterattack and defeat the attacking enemy!”…

Hearing the loud call of the tribe’s high priest, countless warriors and soldiers in the originally chaotic Jie tribe instantly felt a backbone.

Their figures flashed one by one, and they flew towards where Shi An was at a very fast speed.

The battle has just begun, and the number of tribesmen killed by the enemy is less than 30% of the total number.

As long as everyone acts quickly enough and completes the formation of the military killing formation before the enemy reaches the core area of ​​the Jie tribe’s base, they can immediately launch a major counterattack.

“Ha ha……”

“Want to form a formation and counterattack?”

“I’m afraid you’re thinking too much!”

Li Dingguo, who led a military killing formation composed of two thousand soldiers from the Suzaku Camp and quickly rushed into the core area of ​​the Jiehu tribe, immediately discovered the unusual movements of these white Hu people and sneered.

Now, the deadline for Li Dingguo to activate the military killing formation and use the formation’s magical power to attack for the first time is almost over.

In order to prevent the soldiers from consuming too much energy and blood, and to allow them to retain enough physical strength and energy for fighting, before the military killing array was forced to be lifted, Li Dingguo could manipulate the killing array and launch a wave of magical attacks.

Realizing that the enemy was planning to organize a counterattack, Li Dingguo immediately used all his strength to activate the magical power of the military killing formation!
All of a sudden, the dark yellow bell made a loud bang, and its already extremely fast speed soared again in an instant!
This huge phantom of the dark yellow Chaos Bell, carrying bursts of explosive sounds, rushed straight towards the Jie tribe’s high priest Shi An like a huge dark yellow lightning!
“No!”

The shadow of the Xuanhuang Chaos Bell was as real as a real thing, coming too fast and with too much force, and Shi An had no time to avoid it!

After letting out a shrill cry, he had no choice but to leap forward and stabbed the top-grade spiritual spear in his hand with all his might towards the dark yellow bell that was attacking him rapidly. Along the way, it even knocked away hundreds of tribesmen and warriors who had gathered together, and destroyed their souls!
“Oh!”

After a dull sound, Shi An was immediately hit by the dark yellow phantom of the bell and flew high backwards!

He could not withstand the concentrated fire attack from Li Dingguo and two thousand warriors and soldiers!
Not to mention that he couldn’t do it, even if he was a great master who had reached the initial fifth level of martial arts, he would still be no match for the concentrated fire attack launched by Li Dingguo and two thousand elite soldiers!
The phantom of the big bell, after launching its last magical attack using the formation, suddenly dissipated!
The figures of Li Dingguo and two thousand soldiers of the Suzaku Camp then appeared on the ground and returned to their normal formation.

Shi An was knocked into the air by the Xuanhuang Bell. As his body flew backwards, he vomited mouthfuls of blood that turned into blood mist that floated all over the sky. He had suffered extremely serious injuries!

“Die!”

“Thunder!”

How could Li Dingguo not see such a good opportunity?

The moment the military killing formation was lifted, he shouted loudly and activated the perfect level of Yunlong Nine Turns Technique with all his strength!

His figure turned into a wisp of erratic smoke, and after just a few flashes, he caught up with Shi An’s figure that was still flying backwards. He shook the top-grade spiritual spear in his hand, and three huge spear flowers instantly emerged!

“Pfft!”

“puff!”……

After three consecutive almost inaudible sounds, the spiritual spear in Li Dingguo’s hand pierced through Shi An’s brow, throat, and heart, who was unable to dodge in time, creating a large hole that was clear from front to back!

“you……”

Before he completely lost his vitality, Shi An, who had just fallen to the ground, turned his head reluctantly and looked at Li Dingguo, uttered a word, and lost all his vitality.

His eyes were still wide open, looking at Li Dingguo, as if he would die with his eyes open.

“Humph!”

“It’s too easy for you, a beast, to die so quickly!”

“Pooh!”

After killing the powerful enemy with one strike when he was off guard, Li Dingguo, in his joy, cursed loudly at the opponent’s body lying on the ground.

There is no need to guess, this enemy who is at the peak of the early fourth level of the Qi Refining Realm martial arts is either the patriarch of the remnants of the Jiehu tribe or Shi An, the high priest of these white Hu people.

“This guy who deserved to die actually holds a top-grade spiritual weapon in his hand?”

“The foundation of this Jiehu remnant is so powerful?”

What is the concept of a top-grade spiritual weapon?
So far, Li Dingguo knew that Cao Bianjiao and Lu Xiangsheng each had one.

I heard that the royal family has two of them, which are used to suppress the country’s destiny and are placed in the palace all year round.

As for other forces or masters, whether they have top-grade spiritual weapons in their hands, Li Dingguo has never heard of it, and no one in the entire Fuxing Army has heard of it either.

This Jiehu Qi Refining Realm leader actually has a top-grade spiritual weapon in his hand!
“Although the Jiehu tribe has been extinct for ten thousand years, they once occupied most of the Central Plains. It is normal for them to be able to rob some treasures.”

Li Dingguo was shocked for a moment, but after thinking about it for a while, he felt relieved.

God knows how many treasures of the Chinese nation were looted by these man-eating demons during the Five Barbarians’ Invasion.

With the long history of the Chinese nation, there must be no shortage of various treasures.

“Since I broke through to the Qi Refining Stage, I feel that this top-grade spiritual weapon spear is becoming less and less convenient to use.”

“Now I have obtained a top-grade spiritual weapon, a spear at that, which is perfect for changing my clothes.”

“The legendary top-grade spiritual weapons are at least ten times more powerful than top-grade spiritual weapons. This will increase my combat power significantly.”

He bent down and picked up this top-grade spiritual spear, sighed with satisfaction, then regained his composure and looked around the battlefield.

The military killing formation that he had previously presided over was forced to be lifted because the soldiers’ blood and energy were too exhausted.

Now, the two thousand cavalrymen of the Suzaku Camp, under the leadership of the three deputy commanders Wei Jinfan, Chang Liyun and Wu Hongai, formed three special cavalry five-element formations and began a horizontal siege and massacre of the remaining Jiehu remnants!

The military killing formation led by Hongmei and Xiaodouya was forced to disband in order to avoid excessive consumption of the soldiers’ energy and blood.

The two of them were personally leading their cavalry soldiers to continue their group charge against the enemy, slaughtering the fleeing enemies in large numbers!
“wrong!”

Li Dingguo immediately discovered an unusual situation. “Right in front of the Red Plum Cavalry Formation, there is a fourth-level Jiehu martial arts master, fleeing for his life!”

“He didn’t run outside the tribe, but ran towards the very tall temple building not far away. Could it be…”

Li Dingguo immediately thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he flew to his nearby dragon-scale horse, holding a spiritual spear in one hand.

“Dahei, catch up with the Qi Refining Realm barbarian in front as soon as possible!”

“I want to see what he wants to do.”

In this situation, this white Hu man who was in the early fourth level of martial arts did not want to run away immediately, but ran towards the towering temple. There must be something in the temple building that he could not give up.

“Wheeze…”

This high-quality dragon-scale horse with extremely high intelligence was obtained from Yan Zha, the Niulu Zhangjing of the Later Jin Tartars. It is also a big black horse.

In order to commemorate the big black horse that had accompanied Li Dingguo for a long time and was lost in Dingbian City, Li Dingguo also named it Dahei.

As for the top-quality dragon-scale horse that he had reserved, the black foal, Li Dingguo named it Xiao Hei.

Hearing his master’s order, Dahei raised his head and neighed, then he sped up like a black lightning and galloped towards the Jiehu leader who was at the early fourth level of martial arts that Li Dingguo pointed at…
