Thousand Realms of Dharma … Thunder Dragon! " Zhuang Shiheng quickly made a hand seal, and the air became restless. First, raindrops and flames intertwined with each other, and then a thunder reaction occurred. By the time they struck the infantry, they had already formed a thirty-foot long thunder dragon.
With a shout, the armored infantry in the back jumped up and stepped on the shoulder of the one in front. Then, they did the same, quickly forming a huge shield wall with seven rows.
Boom!
The thunder dragon crashed into the shield wall, and all the heavy shields shattered. Forty-nine infantry screamed and flew out, crashing into their comrades. Another seventeen or eighteen were sent flying, each with different degrees of injuries.
Although they had achieved excellent results, Zhuang Shiheng's mood became even heavier. This ultimate skill was what he was best at, but it could only destroy their heavy shields and not kill them completely. There were at least thousands of such enemies around him. How could he deal with them? Not to mention that there were thousands of archers eyeing them.
His despair was right. Those heavy shields were not ordinary items. They were the Dry Bone Shields that Lu Bai Chuan had brought back from Lihen Heaven. The Dry Bone Shields were made from the bones of ancient wild beasts. They contained extremely strong defensive power, and were also engraved with defensive runes. Whoever had this shield could create an invincible iron army.
"Civilians are innocent. They should not be involved in this war!" Zhuang Shiheng shouted to the disciples of the Guard Group with a solemn voice. "We must never forget our pride as descendants of the Five Elements and the dignity of Confucian orthodoxy. It doesn't matter what the future generations think of us. What matters is that we have made the right choice! I, Zhuang Shiheng, am honored to fight side by side with all of you. Let us protect the glory of the Five Elements Court together! "
For someone like him to say such words, every word was from the bottom of his heart.
"Protect the glory of the Five Elements Court!" The disciples felt their blood boiling, and they no longer felt afraid of the enemy.
Linglong Heaven, however, had a way to release the projection of the water mirror, which caused the crowd to be angry. In addition, when Swallow Fort came, they seemed to be killing people as if they were harvesting weeds. The Five Elements Court changed from the position of persecutor to the position of victim.
Some people could do whatever they wanted as long as they hid in the light. Some people yearned for the light, but could only struggle in the darkness. In this world, there is never justice and evil, light and darkness.
There was a clear distinction between them. There was me in you and you in me.
The stubborn resistance of hundreds of disciples of the Five Elements Court also aroused the will of the people to live. They temporarily forgot about their fear, and some of them even took advantage of their familiarity with the terrain to bring a lot of trouble to Ji Qing Hou, making it impossible for him to complete his plan within the time it took for two incense sticks to burn.
Just for the sake of the phrase "protect the glory of the Five Elements Court", the infantry had suffered heavy casualties, and over a thousand Skeleton Shields had been destroyed. After hundreds of disciples of the Five Elements Court, led by Zhuang Shiheng, had died in battle, and thousands of civilians had died, Ji Qing Hou was finally able to drive the surviving civilians into the magic circle.
Before the projection of the water mirror was released, the people of the Five Elements Court were more or less restrained, thinking that they were the ones who wanted to kill someone else's leader. After the projection was released, the people of the Five Elements Court only had one belief: "Carry on Elder Zhuang's unfulfilled wish!" Because of this belief, they changed their previous cowardice and became very brave. When Ji Qing Hou drove the civilians away and forced the disciples of the Earth Word Court to withdraw the magic circle, the disciples of the Earth Word Court had completely suppressed the Dark Night Trident under the leadership of Zhang Zongxi, and the disciples of the Earth Word Court were ready to face the 4,500 cavalries led by Li Kuofu.
Although the three knight regiments were brave, their enemy was the Confucian Orthodoxy. After two attacks on the Jingyuan Palace, they suffered heavy casualties and were separated by the magic circle. The 4,500 cavalries were forced to scatter. Once the cavalries could not regroup, they were no longer a threat and could only run away. The audience outside the water mirror all clapped their hands and cheered.
The other four armies were also in a similar situation as Li Kuofu, struggling with the help of the Evil God.
Wu Zuan, the first disciple of the Earth Word Court, did not feel happy about this great victory and gained a lot of fame. He only looked at his respected master silently.
Zhang Zongxi stood at the gate of the Jingyuan Palace with his hands behind his back. There would be no more changes to the war situation in this city, so he could stop and take a breath. Facing his beloved disciple's stare, he frowned, "Why are you looking at me like this?"
Wu Zuan lowered his head and said stiffly, "I think Elder Zhuang should not have died. The Chief Monk knew him well, so he ordered him to protect the enemy so that the enemy could find an opening. The enemy took the bait. Elder Zhuang's death greatly boosted the morale of the sect, but I think this method was not honorable! Elder Zhuang should not have died like that! "
Zhang Zongxi's old face trembled slightly. He sighed deeply and said angrily, "Even if Elder Zhuang knew, he would not blame us.
"Even if Elder Zhuang knew about it, he wouldn't blame us. He was already prepared to sacrifice himself for the Five Elements Courtyard."
"But disciple …" Wu Zuan wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Zhang Zongxi.
"This is the secret decree of the Headmaster," Zhang Zongxi said.
Wu Zuan was stunned. His original stubbornness disappeared, and he became powerless. After a long time, he murmured, "Master, what are we protecting …"
Zhang Zongxi patted Wu Zuan's shoulder and said sincerely, "The winner is the righteous one."
At the same time, there was an army stationed a hundred miles away from Thunder Mountain. They used the ships built by Swallow Dock to follow the army of Swallow Dock and came here quietly. Until now, no one had discovered their existence.
In the commander's tent, Ji Hyun-woon was drinking alone, with the father and son of the Bai family on either side of him.
"Report!" A rough voice came from outside the tent.
"Come in!" Ji Hyun-woon put down his wine glass and looked up.
A strong man dressed as a scout hurried two steps forward, kneeled on one knee, and cupped his fists, saying, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid the five armies of Swallow Dock can't hold on for long!"
"Oh?" Ji Hyun-woon said.
The strong scout then described in detail what he saw from the projection of the water mirror.
Ji Hyun-woon slammed the table, his eyes wide in anger, but he didn't know what to say. Call them treacherous? On the battlefield, swords had no eyes. They naturally couldn't be merciful to the enemy.
Bai Xiaoshan reminded, "Your Majesty, that Li Ku's physical body is at the foot of the mountain. With Young Master Yan here, the army of Swallow Dock won't be defeated so easily. Why don't we take revenge for the late king first?"
Ji Hyun-woon gritted his teeth and cursed, "Bastard! When Father was still alive, he had repeatedly admonished that a drop of kindness must be repaid with a spring of gratitude! Yan Li saved Parting Hatred Palace from disaster. If we attack Li Ku now, we will be harming him. Are you trying to frame me for being unjust? "
"I dare not!" Bai Xiaoshan's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly knelt down.
"Rise!" Ji Hyun-woon said coldly, "I don't need you to kneel at any time. What I want is your loyalty and righteousness. Say no more. Follow this Prince's arrangements and prepare to support Swallow Fort! "
