Ji Tianxing led the Hidden Dragon Tribe and the Kui Tribe to the south gate of Youdu City after sealing the nine regions in the inner circle.
However, the three divine warships stopped two hundred thousand miles away from the southern city gate, resting and waiting quietly.
Youdu City wasn't big, but it was surrounded by the river of black water. It was also surrounded by poisonous fog.
Over the past half a year, Commander Minghe and the Blood Hell Marshal had thought of all sorts of ways to strengthen the defenses of Youdu City.
On top of the Black River and poisonous fog, Commander Minghe had also mobilized tens of thousands of soldiers to set up six layers of formations and thousands of traps outside the city.
The city walls of Youdu City, which were 1,000 feet tall, had also closed all the entrances and exits. They were heavily guarded, and there was a sentry every five and ten steps.
The city-protecting formation and the six layers of Heaven and Earth Formation outside the city were constantly in operation, and huge amounts of cultivation resources were expended every day.
However, Commander Minghe had been in charge of Reincarnation Island for close to 1,000 years, and he had plundered countless cultivation resources.
No matter how much energy was expended to maintain the defenses of Youdu City, the cultivation resources stored in the treasury were enough to last for more than 100 years!
When the news of the Domain Lord Manor of the 18 regions being attacked and sealed by the Rebel Alliance reached Youdu City, Commander Minghe knew that the time to decide his fate had arrived.
He gathered the 18 Domain Lords, generals, and God Kings for a meeting in the middle of the night. He told everyone to be on their guard and be prepared for battle.
Even though the Domain Lords, generals, and God Kings were terrified, and the morale of the tens of thousands of soldiers was low.
However, they knew that the Kenshin and the Rebel Alliance wouldn't let them off just because of their passive attitude.
When the Kenshin led the Rebel Alliance to attack Youdu City, they would be the first to be killed.
Therefore, the Domain Lords, generals, and God Kings pulled themselves together and showed their most resolute determination to command the soldiers to resist to the end.
Two hours later, Commander Minghe's decree was passed to the army, and tens of thousands of soldiers knew about it.
No matter how lazy and passive the 50,000 soldiers were, they had to pull themselves together and be on full alert in order to protect their lives.
The tens of thousands of soldiers were tense, and they unleashed the defenses of Youdu City to the extreme.
However, after waiting for two whole days, there was still no sign of the Kenshin and Rebel Alliance's army. They immediately felt a strong sense of defeat.
For two consecutive days, their nerves were stretched taut and they were highly focused. This caused the soldiers to feel mentally exhausted.
As for the Kenshin and the Rebel Alliance's army, there was still no news. They did not know how long they would have to wait.
The soldiers could not hold on any longer and complained to their generals.
The generals couldn't do anything about it. They couldn't make a decision on their own. They could only report to General Minghe.
Actually, Commander Minghe was also very puzzled. He had clearly received reports from various scouts that confirmed that the Kenshin was leading the Rebel Alliance army toward Youdu City.
According to the estimation of time and distance, the army under Kenshin should have long reached Youdu City.
Why did Kenshin and his army not show up even after two whole days?
Of course, Commander Minghe had thought about it before. The Kenshin only brought 5,000 soldiers, so they definitely didn't have the confidence to take down Youdu City.
Therefore, the Kenshin was most likely waiting for the army led by Patriarch Song He.
After the two armies converged, the Kenshin would then launch their attack.
However, the problem was that the Kenshin and their 5,000 soldiers were just outside Youdu City. No one knew where they were hiding!
As long as this problem was not solved, Commander Minghe would not be at ease.
He even suspected that Sword God might have used some scheme to bring the army of five thousand to infiltrate Youdu City.
Furthermore, would the Kenshin sneak into the Netherworld God Palace and launch an attack at the crucial moment to assassinate him?
The Blood Hell Marshal had already been killed, and he could not do anything alone.
If the Kenshin assassinated him, Youdu City would be leaderless and would collapse immediately!
When he thought of this problem, Commander Minghe felt a chill run down his spine. He was very worried and anxious.
Now, the various generals came to report the situation again. They said that the soldiers were unable to maintain their vigilance for long periods of time.
Helplessly, Commander Minghe could only comfort the generals and allow the 50,000 soldiers to temporarily relax their vigilance and return to their normal alert state.
However, Commander Minghe emphasized again and again that the soldiers could not let down their guard and had to remain vigilant at all times.
In addition, he ordered the generals to send out more scouts and spies to search for the whereabouts of the Kenshin and the Rebel Alliance army.
No matter what, they had to confirm the Kenshin's whereabouts before they could deduce the Kenshin's attack route and plan.
This battle was not only a battle of tens of thousands of soldiers, but it was also a battle of wits and courage between Commander Minghe and the Kenshin.
…
In reality, Commander Minghe's guesses and suspicions were very reasonable.
Ji Tianxing brought the 5,000 soldiers of the Hidden Dragon Tribe and the Kui Tribe to hide in a mountain range 200,000 miles away from Youdu City. He was indeed waiting for the other army to converge.
Of course, while he was waiting for Patriarch Song He's army, he could not reveal his tracks.
Otherwise, if Commander Minghe knew of his tracks, he would definitely strengthen the defenses in certain areas.
He was not afraid, but the soldiers under him would definitely be affected.
In addition, Ji Tianxing's plan also included assassinating Commander Minghe.
He had considered many times sneaking into Youdu City and trying to enter the Netherworld Divine Palace to kill Commander Minghe.
Once Youdu City lost its leader, it would fall into chaos and their morale would collapse.
At that time, he could cooperate with the army under him and easily take down Youdu City.
This was also the most labor-saving method to reduce the number of casualties.
Of course, he also guessed that Commander Minghe was very cautious and shrewd. He would definitely guard against this move of his.
Therefore, he did not treat this assassination plan as his first choice.
Time passed day after day.
The people of Reincarnation Island and the various factions were all paying attention to Youdu City's movements.
Countless people were looking forward to Kenshin leading the army to take down Youdu City as soon as possible.
However, countless people and factions waited for a few days and did not hear any relevant news.
Youdu City was still as calm as ever. Under the heavy and oppressive atmosphere, people maintained their vigilance and vigilance.
However, Kenshin and his army seemed to have evaporated into thin air. There was no more news.
This made many factions and people start to discuss and speculate what was going on.
Of course, no one felt that Kenshin was afraid of Commander Minghe and his army, so he did not dare to show himself.
Everyone felt that Kenshin's sudden disappearance was definitely a conspiracy.
It was estimated that there would be shocking news coming out soon.
This speculation won the approval of countless people and also aroused everyone's expectations.
Almost the entire Reincarnation Island focused their attention on Youdu City, waiting for the final battle and the result.
