"This is truly an impregnable fortress. A battlefield like this, a clash of two civilizations, after experiencing it once, my life has not been in vain. The heavens have given me an experience like this. This is more shocking than reading thousands of books. "
The setting sun was like blood. Hong Yi held onto his sword as he climbed up to the top of the fortress. Looking at the scene before him, he felt his soul shaking.
The city tower of Sand Continent's impregnable pass, rather than saying it was a city tower, it would be better to say it was a huge street, a meandering city.
This Sand Continent was 300 to 400 feet tall, like a star observatory. It was two to three miles thick and extended like a mountain on the border of the Sand Continent. It was boundless, like a huge yellowish-gray dragon that stretched for thousands of miles.
Many beacon towers were built on the tall city walls and roads, as well as huge fortresses. The soldiers who had been guarding the border of the Sand Continent for generations lived on the city walls of this long border, guarding the node where the two civilizations collided.
"Legend has it that thousands of years ago, the last Saint Emperor, 'Yu', led an army and fought against Great Emperor Mo Luo who ruled the Western Region. The two of them led an army of a million to fight in this vast desert. In the end, 'Yu' heavily injured Great Emperor Mo Luo, but he managed to escape back to the Western Region. Later on, 'Yu' used his divine power to build the Great Wall of the Sand Continent's border. This is an ancient legend recorded in the history books. Hong Yi looked at the scene in front of him as he stood side by side with the Mighty God King Yang Tuo. He pointed at the endless desert in front of them.
"This thirty thousand miles long fortress has been repaired by generations of dynasties. It is now impregnable and indestructible. As for what it originally looked like, nobody knows. But this is one of the miracles of Tianzhou. Even if he was immeasurably powerful, he couldn't have built a fortress like this. "
Mighty God King Yang Tuo said as he pointed into the distance, "Humph! The vanguard of the 300,000 strong army really did reach the desert. Look, there were definitely not this many tents on the desert a few days ago! Hmmph, the number of Sky Huts increased by so much! A Sky Hut is a tent that can hold thousands of people. Only the Duke and above can have one. "
Hearing the God Might King's explanation, Hong Yi also cast his gaze over.
From the top of the city gate tower, one could see a boundless desert stretching for thousands of miles.
This vast expanse of yellow sand was the famous "Vast Desert", the biggest barrier between the Western Regions and the Tianzhou Civilization.
Thousands and tens of thousands of miles away from the Gobi Desert of Immensity, there was a vague shadow of a huge snow-capped mountain towering over the horizon, mysterious and unpredictable. Under those snowy mountains were the encampments of the Western Regions countries.
However, to pass through this Vast Desert, one would have to pay a heavy price of many deaths. This was also the reason why the caravans that sold silk and porcelain could sell their goods in the Western Regions at a price equal to gold.
Originally, this boundless Vast Desert of Immensity was desolate and uninhabited. There were many desert bandits, fierce robbers, poisonous snakes, poisonous scorpions, and other poisonous desert creatures.
But now, on the distant Vast Desert of Immensity, in one day, countless huge tents were erected. Camels, sand carts, and banners were everywhere, densely arranged. Countless people were walking around like ants. Many vital energies, demonic energies, and dignified auras condensed in the sky and did not disperse. Not even ghosts and gods could get close!
From this aura, one could tell that there were many strange people hidden here. They were people with powerful martial arts and supernatural powers.
Under such a situation, even Human Immortals and Thunder Tribulations Masters would not dare to enter recklessly.
Hong Yi thought to himself, faced with such a situation, even he would not dare to enter recklessly. He could only wait for the right moment when the two armies were engaged in battle.
…
Wu wu wu, wu wu wu …
A bugle horn sounded from the other side. It sounded like the roar of a God of War, or the wrath of a Demon God, causing one's heart to race.
Hong Yi knew that the countless tents stationed in the Vast Desert of Immensity were the allied forces of the hundred countries of the Western Regions that had launched the 'Holy War'.
Tens of thousands of huge tents were erected in a continuous line. Some of the tents were dozens of feet high, standing upright like mountains. They were even bigger than castles. The luxurious patterns on the tents and the exotic drawings were clearly transmitted into Hong Yi's eyes.
These tents were decorated with exotic paintings. There were devils, generals, fierce warriors, and fierce beasts. It was a ghastly sight.
These tents that were dozens of feet high and full of drawings were the 'Sky Huts' mentioned by the Mighty God King, Yang Tuo. These tents could accommodate a thousand people!
Amidst the sound of the bugle horn, Hong Yi saw a large tent in the distance. Countless muscular men dressed in iron armor rushed out in an orderly fashion. Following that, the military flags fluttered in the wind. These muscular men roared ferociously and in unison, they pulled out snowflake-like giant machetes and brandished them.
These scimitars reflected the sunlight from afar. In the eyes of Hong Yi and the Mighty God King, Yang Tuo, it was a vast expanse of whiteness.
"This is only a thousand-man team practicing saber techniques. The stronger ones are all hidden in the tents. There are also many priests and priests from the Essence Temple."
The Mighty God King stared at the scimitars. From the corner of his eyes, he saw the aristocratic families' disciples scattered around the city walls.
When these aristocratic families' disciples saw the scene of the enemy, their expressions changed slightly. They were deep in thought and no longer had the arrogance they had when they first arrived.
They were not fools. After observing the situation of the Huo Luo army, it would be arrogant of them to say that they could defeat the enemy.
Some of the aristocratic families' disciples had also secretly practiced very advanced Dao techniques. They had hoped to use Dao techniques to launch sneak attacks and show off their power. But now, it seemed that if they were on the real battlefield, they would be lucky if they could protect their lives. Even a Ghost Immortal would find it hard to protect himself from harm. After all, even a Ghost Immortal would not be able to cultivate in the Sutra of the Past like Hong Yi. Almost every Ghost Immortal would be able to revive on the spot after being shattered.
If ghost immortals were slightly injured, their cultivation would be hindered.
An army of hundreds of thousands was densely packed. The army camp stretched for hundreds of miles. It was unfathomable. Who would dare to move rashly? Experts who had cultivated to the ghost immortal realm had transcended life and death. They were already superior people. They would not rashly enter the camp and take risks. Immortals who had transcended life and death would cherish their lives even more. Even if they did not die, they would suffer irreparable damage to their soul.
What was more impressive was that there were also unfathomable Dao technique experts hidden in the enemy army. There were also rumors that there were divine weapons.
…
"This is just the vanguard army? If the regular army came, how majestic would it be? " Hong Yi observed the situation of the enemy army. "This vanguard army has a total of 300,000. Including the slaves, servants, coachmen, maids, I'm afraid there are more than 500,000 to 600,000. Wang Ye, look, these tents stretch for hundreds of miles. I'm afraid there are more people. This Gobi Desert is very far from the Western Region. It lacks water and supplies. With this army stationed here, I'm afraid we can't afford the daily consumption. But I can see that they are calm and fearless. I can't even smell the stench. It seems like they take a bath every day. What's going on? "
Hong Yi's eyes were sharp. He was meticulous and nimble. He immediately grasped the crux of the problem.
300,000 soldiers, including the slaves in the army, the maids and servants of Wang Ye's aristocratic commanders, totaled to more than 500,000 to 600,000. There were also horses, camels, and rations. Not to mention the daily consumption of food and water, just the daily excrement and urine was enough to form a mountain of excrement and a sea of urine! The stench was so bad that it caused plagues and diseases.
But now, these problems seemed to be gone.
Hong Yi saw the soldiers in the camp in the distance. Each of them was strong and did not smell. Obviously, they were very diligent in bathing. Each of them was physically and mentally clean and full of energy. They could exert their greatest combat effectiveness.
"The Essence Temple has stood in the west of the city for five to six thousand years. There are many masters here. This time, they have put in a lot of effort to launch the holy war! Divine artifacts like the Cosmos Sack of the Daizen Temple and the Creation Gourd of the Creation Taoism are not non-existent. It is said that this time, the Essence Qi Evil God of the Essence Temple even spat out a divine artifact called the 'Ancient Luosheng Gate'. Behind the gate of this magical artifact, there is a vast and boundless world! There is a continuous flow of resources from it. "
Shen Wei King Yang Tuo said.
"Ancient Luosheng Gate!" Although Hong Yi was calm, he was still shocked after hearing this. This' Ancient Luosheng Gate 'was a mysterious magical artifact. According to the records of the Daizen Temple, it was far more powerful than the Cosmos Sack of the Cosmos Sack. It was almost like a medium-class world formed by a Yang Spirit master.
However, Hong Yi did not know what it was exactly. In the records of the Daizen Temple, there was only one name. As for the shape of this magical artifact, he did not know what it looked like.
The meaning of the term 'Luosheng Gate' was that everyone made up their own lies for their own benefit, so that the truth would not be known.
Just like the meaning of the name, no one knew the truth behind the gate of this mysterious magical artifact, the 'Ancient Luosheng Gate', and what kind of world it was.
"The most vicious way to use an army is to cut off supplies and food! Don't be fooled by the fact that the army is fierce and has many masters. As long as we can find an entry point, they will immediately collapse! This army has lived in the Gobi Desert of the Vast Sea for so long, but they do not lack food at all. Obviously, they really have the support of the 'Ancient Luosheng Gate'. I wonder where this divine artifact is? If we can get our hands on this divine artifact, the army of the Western Regions will collapse by itself. If we can capture all of them and turn them into slaves, I wonder how much can we increase the strength of the country? "
Hong Yi's eyes flickered.
"I also know about this. I once sent people to investigate secretly, but I did not know the whereabouts of this divine artifact, nor did I know who has it. There are crouching tigers and hidden dragons in this Gobi Desert of the Vast Sea. A few masters from the Assassin Dao Alliance went in to investigate, but their whereabouts were unknown, and they never came back. "
The Mighty God Monarch shook his head.
"This time, the Essence Temple has launched a holy war. It seems like they have made up their mind. It is said that the Western Regions has a population of six to seven hundred million. If they were to mobilize such a huge army, I'm afraid that they can really make the Sand Continent's impregnable pass collapse! Once the Sand Continent's impregnable pass collapses, these barbarians will invade the interior, and the people will immediately be plunged into misery and suffering. "
As Hong Yi spoke, his eyes emitted a faint light.
Seeing the formation of the Western Regions army, Hong Yi also understood the huge determination of the entire Western Regions civilization! If the army really broke through the impregnable pass, then he would definitely be chased by the masters from the Essence Temple again. He would have no time to care about them, and the army would then march straight in.
These people from the Western Regions were very cruel and ruthless. It was not hard to imagine what kind of damage they would cause.
However, now that the Mighty God Monarch had no way of knowing the location of the legendary "Ancient Rashomon" that supported the Western Regions army's rations and water supply, Hong Yi could not act rashly.
Although Hong Yi's magic power was strong and powerful, the other party was a civilization with countless masters. He could not fight them alone, so he could only look for opportunities to change in the confrontation.
If his side worked together, Hong Yi could charge in alone. But now that Da Qian's side also had many masters hidden, waiting for him to be ambushed and then take advantage of it, how could Hong Yi act rashly?
…
Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong!
Just as Hong Yi, the Mighty God Monarch, and the group of aristocratic families were scattered on the high city wall and observing, suddenly, the dull sound of drums rang out from the camp of the allied forces of the Western Regions in the distance!
The sound of the drums was so loud that it was like an earthquake, causing the ground to tremble.
The fiery clouds floating in the extremely high sky were shaken by the sound of the drums!
The mighty and majestic sound of the drums rippled between heaven and earth, shaking Hong Yi's soul slightly.
In the majestic sound of the drums, a group of armored soldiers rushed out from the camp.
This was a real army of armored soldiers, all wearing iron armor, holding huge spears in their hands! There were scimitars on their waists, and their whole bodies were wrapped in fine steel, like a torrent of steel.
The most valiant cavalry of the Western Regions began to move, marching down the city!
"Using cavalry to attack the city? Are they stupid? Even if this army is all Wu Sheng, facing such a tall and thick mountain wall, I'm afraid it's useless! "A young man from an aristocratic family couldn't help but say when he saw this scene.
Yang Tuo's face was extremely serious, and he just waved his hand!
"Pass down my order, Fang Xiandao's Iron-armored Thunder, get ready!"
