This was the eye of the formation, and also the core of the entire battle formation.
There was only one way to break the formation, and that was to kill their way to this core position. If they could not reach it, they would be buried in the battle formation, and there would be no chance of survival. Apart from here, there was no other way to leave, unless the battle formation was removed. In a situation of life and death, how could they remove the battle formation so easily?
In the eyes of Dou Li and the others, they were walking on different paths.
In reality, in the eyes of Yi Tianxing and the others, what they saw were huge golden locks.
The eight golden locks formed eight paths.
They crisscrossed, ran in all directions, and covered the eight doors.
However, what was strange was that only one of the eight golden locks was directly connected to the core area where Yi Tianxing and the others were. The other seven were all broken at the end of the path. Even if they reached the end, they could only see a fog, and could not reach the core of the formation.
And at the end of the path, there was a door. An array door that could lead to any golden lock path.
If one was lucky, they could enter the only golden lock path that led to the core of the formation. If they were unlucky, they would enter another dead end. Even if they reached the end, they would have to start a new cycle, step through the array door again, and randomly enter another golden lock path. Among the eight golden locks paths, one had to be lucky to find the only correct path. The probability of that happening was obvious.
It was not an ordinary low probability.
It was fine if the probability was low, but none of the golden locks were absolutely safe. Even if it was the only correct path, it was still filled with danger. Whether or not they could reach it in the end was still a question in front of them.
"Opening the door is auspicious, the door of scenery is strange, the door of pain is bloody."
"Stopping door is weak, the door of alarm is horrifying, the door of rest is like firewood."
"Life door cries, the door of death smiles, the door of ghost cries rather than the door of laughter."
"Eight golden locks suppress the eight directions, locking the ghosts and gods, the door of heaven and earth."
Yi Tian Xing looked at the dog-headed man who was moving through the eight golden chains. He saw with his own eyes that Wang Da Hu was leading his soldiers on both sides of the golden chains, constantly changing their positions. Golden chains continuously condensed, and on those golden chains, mysterious ancient seals such as wind, lightning, water, and fire flashed, emitting different auras.
It quickly swept through the eight golden paths, continuously pulling Kobolds into the fog and killing them. With every breath, a large number of Kobolds fell and died. He died on the spot.
Gou Buli's scythe had indeed injured a soldier. Fortunately, he did not die on the spot. He had only suffered a gash on his body and lost an arm. However, it was not so easy to say that anyone could harm the soldiers in a battle formation.
That was the maxim of the Eight Gates Metal Lock Formation. This was also the terrifying aspect of this battle formation. Once they were trapped, they would most likely die if they wanted to escape.
"There's no need to hold back. Divine Strategy Battalion, attack! I want everyone who enters the array to die in it. Leave no one alive. "
Yi Tian Xing took a deep breath and let out a shout.
"Yes, Master."
Yang Yanping quickly answered.
Then, he issued orders to the entire Divine Strategy Battalion, "All soldiers, heed my orders. The target is the golden path. Leave no one alive. Fire freely. Use the most effective method to kill the enemy."
Yang Yanping's orders echoed throughout the entire army. "Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! "
With the order, the entire Divine Strategy Battalion erupted. This time, they did not need to form the Three-Colored Arrow Formation. They could attack as they pleased, having complete freedom. Ballista bolts shot out at lightning speed.
"What is that?"
"It's ballista bolts! Damn it! It's those archers!"
"Quickly dodge! Scatter!"
Just as he was dodging the golden chains and moving forward, he suddenly heard the sound of something breaking through the air. Taking a closer look, he immediately felt his hair stand on end. Crossbow bolts were shooting out from the fog, covering the sky and covering the earth as they shot toward everyone. It was as if a storm was raging in the sky. It was extremely shocking.
Pfft! Pfft!
Arrows rained down.
When they landed, corpses littered the ground.
In an instant, tens of thousands of Dog-Headed Men died to the arrows.
The Divine Strategy Battalion was about to face the attacks of the golden chains in the fog. Now that the arrows rained down, it was easy to imagine how immense and horrifying the pressure was. Furthermore, this arrow rain came from the fog. The Dog-Headed Men could not see where the arrows came from, nor could they find their opponents. By the time they appeared, the ballista bolts were already before them. The path was also not wide. There was nowhere to dodge.
Naturally, the casualties were even more severe.
It was like cutting grass. "Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! "
The arrow rain surged over like a strong wind.
The Divine Strategy Battalion did not care how ferocious the Dog-Headed Men were. They only had one action: shoot. Shoot. Shoot. Shoot. Shoot. Shoot. Shoot. The arrows shot out wildly.
The Divine Strategy Battalion frantically killed all the enemies in front of them.
Killing the enemy was their mission.
"Damn it! How despicable! Human, Yi Tian Xing, come out if you have the guts. Let's fight one on one. What kind of expert are you if you hide in the dark and launch sneak attacks and sneak attacks? "
When Gou Bu Li saw this, his nose nearly crooked in anger. Unexpectedly, not only did he have to deal with the surrounding golden chains, but he also had to deal with the dense arrow rain. Gou Bu Li could block them, but the Dog-Headed Men soldiers he brought might not.
As Gou Bu Li watched wave after wave of Dog-Headed Men fall, he felt his heart bleed.
His eyes looked like they were about to bleed. Then, he immediately reared his head back and roared.
His roar contained rage and mockery.
"There's no need to care. Continue firing."
When Yi Tianxing heard that, he only smiled coldly. This was war, not children playing house. On the battlefield, no one would challenge you to a one-on-one fight. Killing your opponent was the greatest goal. It did not matter even if one gained a dishonorable reputation for doing so.
On the battlefield, there was only one goal.
That was to live.
Under such circumstances, even with the battle formations laid out, Gou Bu Li still wanted to fight one-on-one with Gou Bu Li to determine a victor. How stupid would Gou Bu Li be to agree?
War was never child's play.
The Divine Strategy Battalion would not stop, either. They fired the crossbow bolts without pause.
The crossbow bolts moved extremely fast.
"Clan Head, save me!"
"It's over. It's really over for us this time. We can't even find an opponent here. We'll die in the battle formations. I can't accept this. "
"Clan Head, I can't accept this. I'll die a wronged death."
The many Dog-Headed Men let out furious and dissatisfied roars.
Some charged into the fog, and some were killed by the crossbow bolts.
However, regardless of which one it was, the final outcome was still death. Both of them would perish. Corpses covered the eight golden chains. It would not be an exaggeration to say that corpses littered the land.
This Eight Gates Metal Lock Formation was practically an unbreakable formation. It was too ferocious. Once one entered, one would die for sure unless one could clear the checkpoints along the way and charge to the core of the formation.
However, whether one could break the formation's core was another matter entirely.
Pfft! Pfft!
Soon, hundreds of thousands of Dog-Headed Men died easily in the battle formations. In the end, only Gou Buli remained.
As Gou Buli faced the dense arrow rain, he swung his scythe, appearing extremely brutal. As Gou Buli swung his scythe, a saber light flashed. His battle Qi infused into the scythe, and countless scarlet saber lights ferociously shattered the large number of crossbow bolts in front of him.
However, no matter how tyrannical he was, he would still fall under the relentless barrage of arrows. No matter who it was, they could not continuously face the dense arrow rain. There were bound to be openings. Furthermore, these crossbow bolts were no ordinary crossbow bolts. While destroying the crossbow bolts, Gou Buli exhausted a significant amount of energy.
Soon, Gou Buli revealed an opening.
Some crossbow bolts broke through his defense and stabbed into his chest.
Following that, sharp ripping sounds rang out. The dense barrage of crossbow bolts completely covered Gou Buli's body. Gou Buli's entire body instantly turned into a porcupine. His chest and limbs were all pierced with crossbow bolts. Blood flowed continuously.
Gou Buli looked like a bloody person.
"I can't accept this!"
Gou Buli reared his head back and roared furiously.
Gou Buli's face filled with dissatisfaction. He had never expected to die in such a situation, to be blocked by a group of weak soldiers with crossbow bolts and turned into a porcupine.
Even if he were to die, he still hoped that there would be someone who could fight him fair and square. Only one of them would die. He would not end up like this, lying on the ground sullenly.
Even in death, Gou Buli died in such a sullen manner.
"What a powerful Kobold Chieftain. To think that he could last fifteen minutes against the crossbow bolts of the entire Divine Strategy Battalion. Before the astral energy on his body shattered, even the crossbow bolts could not pierce through it. He is definitely an expert who broke through to the Life Aperture Realm. With the treasures in his hands, it might not be difficult to defeat him in a head-on fight. However, killing such an expert is very difficult! "
Jia Xu sighed as he looked at Gou Buli, who was lying on the ground.
It would be extremely difficult to stop such an expert if he wanted to flee. Furthermore, he was not in a battle formation.
However, such an expert would still die before a dense rain of crossbow bolts.
Back in the days of the Eight-Nation Alliance, there was a martial arts grandmaster who could fight against a hundred enemies alone. That was definitely not a joke. In an open area, even firearms could not kill them. Back then, firearms were not automatic. A martial arts grandmaster was definitely an incomparably powerful existence.
However, if such a martial arts grandmaster fought alone in a city and faced a small group of enemies, he would definitely have astonishing destructive power. However, if he faced a large group of enemies, he would still suffer greatly.
Back then, there was a legend that when foreigners faced a martial arts grandmaster, they would send a large group of gunmen to block the other party in an alley and open fire. Even if they could dodge one or block two, they would not be able to escape death when facing a dense rain of crossbow bolts.
The number of martial arts experts killed by crossbow bolts was definitely not small.
That kind of tragedy was the portrayal of Gou Buli now.
No matter how strong one was, one would still die when facing a dense rain of crossbow bolts.
"This is a battlefield, not a wrestling ring. There is no justice to speak of. If you are an enemy, then you have to fight to the death, regardless of the means. "
