Carrying two swords on his back, Gao Zhengyang strode forward towards the flames. Although he was calm, he naturally displayed a fearless fighting spirit.
The hundreds of fully-armed men were stunned as they watched Gao Zhengyang walk towards them alone.
No matter how strong a swordsman was, he was still made of flesh and blood. Teamwork was key in military battles. With a dozen ordinary soldiers attacking from all directions, there was no room for a swordsman to unleash his sword skills.
Furthermore, there were many soldiers in the army and they were fully armored, giving them a huge advantage over an unarmored swordsman. Even a Sword Dao Grandmaster would have to avoid an organized army of hundreds of people.
Although they did not wear the same military uniform, they were all equipped with bows, shields, spears, and all sorts of weapons. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that this was definitely a well-trained elite army. They were completely different from ordinary bandits and bandits.
Tian Hongyi, who was in charge of this ambush, was also very surprised. He had thought that he would encounter Xu Minghao and the others from the Lightning Sword Sect. To think that he would be greeted by an unfamiliar swordsman.
From the looks of it, he should be the number one swordsman of the Black Heaven Sect, Gao Zhengyang.
Tian Hongyi was puzzled. Where did Xu Minghao and the others go? According to the plan, both sides would work together to kidnap Princess Qingling.
However, Xu Minghao and the others did not make a move even after they charged in. What was going on? Did they escape after seeing that the situation was bad?
Tian Hongyi did not think that Xu Minghao would dare to do that! While the Lightning Sword Sect was famous, its roots were in the Kingdom of Qi. If the Emperor was angered, he could uproot the Lightning Sword Sect with a single order.
If a sect could not be used by the Imperial Court, it would be worthless!
Xu Minghao was experienced and sly. Even if he did not succeed, he would have to give him an explanation. There was no way he would run away without saying a word.
Looking at Gao Zhengyang's stalwart figure, Tian Hongyi could not help but have a shocking thought – perhaps Xu Minghao and the others had already been killed.
That was undoubtedly the most logical explanation for the current situation!
Tian Hongyi was also a decisive person and knew that he could not hesitate at a time like this. He shouted in a deep voice, "Archers, get ready to shoot this man."
More than twenty archers strode forward and lined up in a row. At the same time, they drew their bows and aimed at the figure with the two swords on his back.
Someone shouted, "Shoot!"
Many of the archers were elites. Although they couldn't be said to be able to shoot accurately, they definitely wouldn't miss their target if they were only a few dozen steps away. Moreover, everyone had the experience of working together to kill a swordsman. The archers on both sides would deliberately fire slightly to seal off the two sides.
There were also a few Godly Archers who drew their bows and waited to shoot.
These were truly powerful bows that could pierce through heavy armor within a few dozen steps. By the time the bowstring was released, the triangular arrow was already in front of Gao Zhengyang.
Gao Zhengyang unsheathed his two swords at the same time and slashed nine times in a row. After slashing away all the arrows that were flying towards him, he suddenly exerted his strength and rushed forward.
With the support of his powerful inner force, Gao Zhengyang instantly turned into a shadow, moving as fast as the wind.
A few sharpshooters hurriedly drew their bows and released their arrows. No matter how fast Gao Zhengyang's movements were, he could not outrun the arrows.
But the two swords in his hands were a bit faster than the arrows. The snow-white sword light flashed continuously in the darkness. A few arrows that were accurately aimed at Gao Zhengyang's vital points were cut off and sent flying.
It was only then that the sharp whistling sound of the arrows piercing through the air rippled in the air.
Seeing how accurate and swift Gao Zhengyang's swordsmanship was, many of the archers' expressions also changed. Without waiting for anyone's orders, they continuously drew their bows and shot arrows, trying to kill Gao Zhengyang outside.
But just as the second wave of arrows was released, Gao Zhengyang had already rushed to the front of the battle formation.
The sword-and-shield bearers who were already prepared raised their round shields and rushed forward together, leaving the archers behind.
Once the distance was closed, the archers were no longer much of a threat. A qualified archer was extremely difficult to train. Unless it was absolutely necessary, archers would not participate in close combat.
The sword-and-shield bearers were all holding vine shields that weighed more than ten kilograms. The special vines that were soaked in oil were extremely flexible and hard to break. They were also wrapped in a layer of iron to prevent arrows from hitting them. Although they were not heavy, they could block strong arrows.
A round shield could block most of one's body by raising it. When a swordsman was surrounded, no matter how his swordsmanship changed, he only needed to move the shield slightly to protect himself.
There were also long gunners following behind, holding their guns and stabbing randomly through the gaps. No matter how good a swordsman's swordsmanship was, being surrounded by an army would only lead to death.
Therefore, a swordsman could only compete in the martial arts world. There wasn't a single sect that could go against the imperial court's army.
The round shields were connected together and pushed forward like a wall. It had a suffocating sturdiness.
For any swordsman, this was an enemy of nightmares.
But Gao Zhengyang did not care. With a horizontal slash of his sword, the thick and sturdy round shield was broken along with the man's arm. Before the man had time to scream, Gao Zhengyang raised the sword in his left hand, and the blade cut through the man's neck. It also completely muffled his scream.
The big man who staggered backward also created an obvious gap in the shield formation.
Gao Zhengyang's figure flashed, and he cut through the gap. Without waiting for the sword and shield soldiers to attack, he had already raised his two swords and rushed in.
Be it shields, heavy armor, or weapons, they were like paper before the indestructible Tian Xing Sword. Wherever the sword passed, everything was cut.
Gao Zhengyang's swordsmanship was also very simple. It was just slash, slash, slash!
Every time he attacked, the enemy's shield would be broken, their weapons would be broken, and they would die.
Gao Zhengyang did not advance very quickly, but he did not stop for a single step. He moved against the flow of the surging crowd. Everywhere he passed, he left behind blood and broken weapons.
One man with two swords, it looked like he was about to kill his way through the battle formation formed by hundreds of elite soldiers.
Tian Hongyi was also shocked. He had seen many swordsmen, but he had never seen such a ferocious and powerful expert.
Moreover, Gao Zhengyang's target was very clear, and it was coming straight for him. He hurriedly shouted, "Anyone who dares to take a step back will be killed. Kill this person and you will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold and promoted by three ranks. "
At this time, Tian Hongyi no longer had the mood to hide their background. If he did not kill Gao Zhengyang now, he was afraid that he would die here.
Many of the soldiers were slightly afraid of Gao Zhengyang's massacre, but Tian Hongyi's words ignited their fighting spirit. Since they were going to die either way, they might as well fight.
For a moment, everyone's eyes turned red as they rushed towards Gao Zhengyang, shouting loudly and letting out earth-shattering battle cries.
The side that launched the sneak attack immediately became more imposing.
Gao Zhengyang was not affected at all, his two swords continuously slashed, like the waves of the sea, one wave after another. Although the changes were simple, the sword force was surging and continuous, and the follow-up force was endless.
Facing the seven or eight spears that were thrusting towards him, Gao Zhengyang slashed horizontally, and three spears were broken soundlessly. He leaned his body to the side and followed the headless spear, and with a turn of the sword, the head of the person flew into the sky with a face full of fear.
Wherever the sword passed, everything was smooth and smooth, without any obstruction. That kind of delightful slashing was even more satisfying than chopping melons with a sharp knife.
After Gao Zhengyang killed that person, he very calmly exhaled, and adjusted his muscles and internal energy. Then he took a step forward, and with a swing of his two swords, the dense human wall was slashed by the sword, leaving two blood red marks.
The soldiers who were hit by the sword, but did not die, let out extremely tragic cries.
Suddenly, a spear pierced out from the crowd, and went straight for Gao Zhengyang's throat. This spear was straight, without any fancy moves, but it was accurate, ruthless, and fast.
Seeing that Gao Zhengyang was about to break out of the encirclement, the expert that followed Tian Hongyi finally made his move. This person's attainments in spear techniques were extremely profound, and his internal energy was also thick and powerful.
The spear pierced out, and before the sound was heard, the blade was already there. It could be said that the lifetime cultivation of a spear expert, was all condensed into this spear.
Gao Zhengyang also felt a chill at his throat, the killing intent of the spear had already pierced through his flesh.
"He's an expert."
Gao Zhengyang felt that, although this person was not as good as Xu Minghao's sword qi release, it was not too far off. Especially this kind of military spear technique, it was able to fully display its power in a battle formation. Even with his ability, he could not be careless.
The opponent was using a pure steel spear, the body of the spear was as thick as a walnut. Although the Heaven Punishment Sword in Gao Zhengyang's hand was fast, it would be very difficult to cut it in one strike. Moreover, the opponent was a first-class expert, and would not give him the chance to easily exert his strength.
If there was no one around, Gao Zhengyang would be interested to see the opponent's spear technique. But once he was entangled in a battle formation, it would be too dangerous. He had to get rid of the opponent as soon as possible.
Gao Zhengyang circulated his internal energy, activating the power of his muscles, bones, skin, and flesh, combining them as one, and fiercely slashed at the opponent's spear.
The Heaven Punishment Sword also weighed more than 15 kilograms, and under Gao Zhengyang's full power, the instantaneous explosive power was also extremely terrifying.
The sword and spear clashed, and sparks flew everywhere, giving off a low but powerful sound of metal clashing.
The opponent's spear, which contained the power of thousands of kilograms, was forcibly deflected by Gao Zhengyang. The expert spear felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his hands went numb, and he lost all feeling. The blood and Qi in his body were boiling, and his whole body was so weak that he could not exert any strength.
He realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly circulated his energy to adjust himself, but two snow-white sword lights suddenly rushed into his eyes.
The expert spear was shocked, but his whole body was as soft as noodles, and there was no way he could dodge.
Gao Zhengyang crisscrossed his two swords and twisted, and the expert spear was cut into two pieces. His whole body rushed through the body of the expert spear.
What welcomed Gao Zhengyang was a dense rain of crossbow arrows. Gao Zhengyang did not have time to dodge, and both swords slashed continuously, the snow-white sword lights were like a curtain of light in the night sky, cutting all the crossbow arrows that were shooting at him.
The sound of the crossbow arrows cutting through the air quickly stopped, and Gao Zhengyang, who was standing in his original position, was unharmed, but his breathing was a little more rapid.
Killing a strong enemy, and then being ambushed by crossbow arrows, he had also used his full strength.
Even though he saw Tian Hongyi giving orders, he still had to first adjust his breathing.
Tian Hongyi felt that Gao Zhengyang should have reached his limit, and his eyes revealed a fierce look. He pulled out his sword and pointed it at Gao Zhengyang, shouting: "Kill!"
Saying this, he was the first to rush forward. Tian Hongyi's personal guards naturally could not let their master charge at the front. They all pulled out their swords, and dozens of people rushed forward.
The cold glint of the swords, and the fierce shouts of despair, made this group of personal guards seem abnormally fierce.
Gao Zhengyang let out a light breath, and raised his sword to meet them.
The incomparably sharp snow-white sword light gradually suppressed all the shouts and counterattacks.
After a moment, Gao Zhengyang put away his sword, and Tian Hongyi, who was in front of him, opened his mouth, but in the end, before he could say anything, he fell to the ground.
In the distance, the light from the fire shone over, and the battlefield was littered with corpses and broken swords. Only Gao Zhengyang stood there holding his sword.
Princess Qing Ling slowly walked to Gao Zhengyang's side, and her gaze swept across the bloody battlefield, and her beautiful jade face had a complicated expression. He seemed to be in awe, admiration, and a bit of awe.
One person with two swords, killing a thousand soldiers. If someone said this in the past, Princess Qing Ling would definitely feel that it was absurd. But today, she had personally witnessed the godly power of Dual Swords Destroying the Army.
Only now did she understand that there was actually such a peerless swordsman in this world!
She was silent for a while, and then gave a deep bow, saying: "Tonight, it is all thanks to Dao Zhang's godly power that Qing Ling was able to preserve her body. Dao Zhang's kindness will never be forgotten. "
