At the entrance of the valley.
Some of the soldiers who were about to enter were at a loss when they saw the sudden change.
No one had expected that something like this would happen.
At this moment.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
A dense rain of arrows shot from the surrounding forest.
Ah! Ah!
Many soldiers who were not in range were attacked by the arrows and screamed in pain.
"There's a sneak attack. Find cover!"
"Archers, counterattack!"
A general panicked and immediately gave the order.
Suddenly.
The soldiers who reacted looked for cover or raised their shields to block the arrows.
As for the archers.
They drew their bows and shot toward the dense forest in all directions.
Even if they did not see the enemy, they did not need to look for the enemy.
As long as the arrows came from any direction, they would shoot back.
The arrows entered the forest.
Screams were heard.
The rain of arrows in the dense forest seemed to have weakened a lot.
At this moment.
Shouts of killing were heard from all directions.
A large number of rebel soldiers came out of the forest.
"Gather the troops and fight!"
At this moment, the army was much calmer.
Looking at the rebel soldiers who were rushing toward them from all directions, the remaining soldiers gathered the scattered formation under the command of the general and rushed toward the rebel soldiers.
Boom!!
An expert from a sect directly came out of the crowd and slapped the air. The illusory palm print exploded with terrifying power.
At the same time.
There were also experts among the rebel soldiers.
The long saber was fierce and directly scattered the palm print.
In the blink of an eye.
The two sides fought together.
The movement at the entrance of the valley naturally could not be hidden from Hong Bin and the others.
However —
The falling stones had divided the valley into two.
It wouldn't be easy for them to turn back and provide support before clearing the rubble.
Therefore —
When Cao Ke's face was pale, Hong Bin made a decision and said fiercely, "Everyone, follow me and rush out!"
Since there was no turning back —
Then there was no turning back.
In an instant.
Everyone rushed toward the exit of the valley under Hong Bin's command.
However —
When they were about to come out of the valley —
Sharp arrows were shot like dense raindrops.
When they rushed out first —
Within a breath's time, he had become a hedgehog.
Seeing this, Hong Bin was much calmer this time. There were ambushes in the middle of the valley and at the entrance, so it was natural that there would be an ambush at the exit as well.
"Shieldbearers, open up a path!" He immediately gave the order. Then, he turned to Fu Gang and the others and said, "Everyone, please lend us a hand!"
"Of course!"
Fu Gang nodded with a solemn expression.
It was also at this moment.
The shieldbearers walked step by step towards the exit. Although the arrows were fierce, most of them were blocked by the shields. Only a few arrows that passed through the gaps could cause damage.
Look at this.
Fu Gang and the others exchanged glances before following the Shieldbearers out of the canyon.
When their field of vision widened, they saw a large number of rebel archers forming into a formation.
Immediately!
Everyone unleashed their strongest strength, withstanding the oncoming rain of arrows, and charged forward.
Although the arrows were powerful.
Unless the arrow was made of fine iron or the archer was an expert who could break through the defense of copper skin and iron bones, the rest of the arrows would not pose any threat to an expert of the tenth stage of the Basic Realm.
It only took a few seconds.
Fu Gang and the others had already charged through the rain of arrows.
It was as if they felt threatened.
The rain of arrows from the rebel camp suddenly weakened a lot.
However.
There were experts on the imperial court's side, but there were also experts on the rebel camp's side.
When Fu Gang and the others charged in.
Immediately, the rebel army's experts appeared and intercepted them.
At this moment.
While the arrows were slowing down, the army also charged out of the valley. Hong Bin took the lead and directly knocked away the oncoming arrows. His accumulated anger finally erupted as he charged towards the rebel camp.
At the same time.
A burly figure rushed out from the rebel camp, and a fierce cold light burst out in an instant.
In the blink of an eye.
Spear light flashed and the cold light was embellished.
In less than two breaths of time.
Hong Bin's warhorse's knees suddenly went soft. He immediately became alert and got off the horse's back. He floated back more than ten feet and stood firmly on the ground.
Behind him.
There were less than eight thousand remnants of the army.
"Lin Shixiong!!"
"Hong Bin, long time no see!"
Lin Shixiong waved his spear, a carefree smile on his face. He said in a heroic voice, "But seeing you today, you are still in such a sorry state. There are no capable people in the Great Zhao Empire!"
"Impudent, you, a rebel general, have the right to talk nonsense about the imperial court!" Hong Bin was furious, but he did not immediately attack.
In the exchange just now.
In fact, he had already been defeated.
If he had not retreated quickly enough, he would have been injured.
However.
There was a large army behind him and experts from various sects helping him. Hong Bin was not afraid of the other side.
How many people could the rebel army have?
At most five thousand, and they had split off a portion to deal with the army that had not entered the valley.
This way.
To be able to stand here.
According to Hong Bin's estimates, there would not be more than three thousand.
Lin Shixiong was not angry. He said, "You didn't even see my face and already lost thousands of soldiers. If the Great Zhao Empire is filled with people like you, it is no wonder it has reached its current state."
"Lin Shixiong, that rebel Marquis Yifeng is already dead. You still dare to be so rampant. This day next year will be the day you die!"
"Is trash like you worthy of being called a king?"
"What kind of king is Marquis Yifeng? He is just a traitor who betrayed the Great Zhao Empire. Now, his entire family has been destroyed. If you are smart and hand over the bastard child of Marquis Yifeng, I can still leave your corpse intact!"
"I want to see who will live and who will die today!"
Lin Shixiong laughed in anger. He pointed with his spear and shouted, "I am the General of Great Feng, Lin Shixiong. Who dares to come forward and fight!"
"Who dares to fight!"
"Who dares to fight!"
Behind him, the rebel army camp let out a strong voice.
Fu Gang and the others who had been fighting with the experts of the rebel army temporarily split up and returned to their own camps.
Cao Ke laughed coldly, "Why would I not dare — —"
But just as he finished speaking, he saw Hong Bin wave his hand to stop him.
The other looked at the imposing Lin Shixiong and sneered, "Right now, I am stronger than you in both numbers and experts. What do you think I have to fight you alone?"
Immediately after.
His expression turned solemn.
"Everyone, listen to my orders. Kill all the rebels. After this, I will naturally reward everyone. The chance to be promoted and become rich is right in front of you!"
"Kill!"
"Kill! Kill! "
The army immediately rushed forward like thunder.
A trace of regret flashed across Lin Shixiong's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant. He also commanded his men to kill.
Subsequently.
He suddenly burst out from his original position. His spear pierced through the air and was already charging toward Hong Bin.
This spear.
The murderous aura was intimidating.
Hong Bin's expression changed, but he did not retreat. He immediately raised his spear to meet the attack.
Bang!
The two spears collided. Hong Bin was shaken and retreated.
Lin Shixiong's spear danced. In an instant, eighteen spear flowers bloomed. His killing intent had already emerged.
"Commander Hong, let me help you!"
Cao Ke immediately stepped forward. The long saber at his waist was unsheathed and slashed out with a fierce wind.
The moment the long saber slashed, a spear accurately pierced the blade. The violent wind spread and Cao Ke's hand, which was holding the saber, was suddenly shattered.
On the other side.
Hong Bin had already charged over.
Lin Shixiong with a spear in his hand was like the reincarnation of the God of War. In less than ten moves, he forced the two of them to retreat again and again. They only had the ability to parry.
"I'll help you!"
The sharp saber light slashed out. Ceng Hong directly charged into the battle circle. He was at Lv 1 of the Genuine Martial Realm, but now he could only exert the power of Lv 10 of the Martial Realm.
"You're overestimating yourself!"
Lin Shixiong was not afraid. The spear in his hand was superb. Every move was a killing means. Even if he was fighting against three people, he still had the upper hand.
In this regard.
Hong Bin's face was also very ugly.
He knew that Lin Shixiong, as the general of Marquis Yifeng, was an expert above Lv 7 of the Genuine Martial Realm.
If it was outside the Ordinary Realm.
He would definitely run as far as he could when he saw him.
But this was the Ordinary Realm!
Experts above Lv 7 of the Genuine Martial Realm were only at Lv 10 of the Basic Martial Realm.
But even so.
Lin Shixiong's strength was still shocking.
Not only Hong Bin.
Even Ceng Hong was quite shocked in his heart.
Since he broke through to the Genuine Martial Realm, this was the first time he fought with someone in the Ordinary Realm. He thought that there were not many people who could be his opponent. But in the first encounter, he encountered such a strong enemy.
On the battlefield.
All sides were fighting non-stop.
The players in the three camps were also trying their best to kill the enemy.
At this time.
The players of Yuan Sect had already tangled with a centurion of the rebel army.
Lv 10 of the Basic Martial Realm.
It was equivalent to a Boss at this stage.
"A Boss of Lv 10 of the Basic Martial Realm. According to the mission, killing it will definitely give us a lot of contribution points!" Liu Dazhong's face was full of excitement as he kept attacking the centurion.
At the same time.
There were still more than ten players who were launching fierce attacks.
Although at this stage the players who had changed their cultivation method stopped at Lv 5 of the Basic Martial Realm, the three additional characteristics of Yuan Dian made their strength surge.
Although they were only at Lv 5 of the Basic Martial Realm.
But if they really counted, their combined strength was definitely at Lv 6 of the Basic Martial Realm.
Even compared to Lv 7, there was not much difference.
This kind of strength.
Breaking the defense was no longer a problem.
For the players, as long as they could break the defense, there was no Boss that they could not defeat.
Of course.
Not all players aimed at such a Boss to attack.
There were other players who chose to attack those small soldiers.
The two-foot-long short sword stabbed out. A rebel soldier was caught off guard and his throat was directly pierced. He fell to the ground powerlessly.
"Two!"
Liu Bi silently counted a number in his heart and then continued to move towards the next target.
He was lucky enough to obtain a high grade footwork technique and even raised it to a relatively high level.
This allowed him to have a speed that far exceeded those of the same level.
In addition, he only attacked the rebel soldiers who were fighting with the large army of the Imperial Court and exposed the openings behind them. Naturally, he was able to find them accurately.
