Taking out a map from the scout's bag, Yi Tian scanned it with his divine sense and frowned. The map was quite detailed, but there was a big red cross on the area where Yu Yaoqing's army was stationed.
Yi Tian couldn't guess what this meant, but it didn't seem to be anything good. Could it be that there was another trial at the end? Thinking back to the previous trials, there were bound to be some twists and turns, and now it seemed that there was no exception. It was just that he couldn't use his magic, so who knew how to deal with it?
Riding on horseback, it didn't take long for him to enter the last part of the forest. Looking around, it seemed that he was the first scout to arrive, and there were no signs of fighting.
After riding for a short while, he heard the sounds of fighting from the depths of the forest. Yi Tian raised his eyebrows. Wasn't this a clear opportunity for him? He could take advantage of the chaos to enter the camp and complete the task the Red Team's commander had entrusted him with.
After slowing down, he quietly climbed up the hill and looked down. His face was immediately filled with shock. At this moment, the Red Team's camp, which originally stretched for several kilometers, was being attacked from the front and back by the Black Team's army. In the middle of the Red Team's army camp, there was a five meter tall flag with the word "Yu" on it that was slowly fluttering in the wind.
Sitting under the flagpole was a young Confucian general in his thirties. His hands were furiously writing down orders, and there were many messengers waiting respectfully on both sides. After receiving the token, they hurriedly ran to the front and back of the barracks to pass down the orders of the general.
In the ten or so barracks near the camp, groups of soldiers were pouring out in a line, as if there was no end to them.
Yi Tian saw this and had an idea. The large formation must have been designed to have an endless supply of soldiers, so Yu Yaoqing was able to hold on.
When he looked back at the route he had taken, his face twitched. After leaving the forest, there was no place to hide. He would have to charge into the front line in one go.
After thinking about it, Yi Tian muttered to Yu Yaoqing. He had already come this far, so if he didn't take the risk, would he really continue to do well?
After thinking about it, Xiao Chen clenched his teeth and patted the Scarlet Flame Stallion beneath him. He said, "Let's go. We will directly charge into the formation. However, this stage is impossible."
"I've already prepared them. I also want to see how powerful these formation puppets are," said the Scarlet Flame Stallion disdainfully.
"The formation laid down by the previous head of the Artifact Pavilion is definitely not to be underestimated. Let's take it easy," Yi Tian said earnestly.
A moment later, a fiery red whirlwind rushed down from the hillside. After ten breaths, it broke through the back of the black army and went around the edge of the battlefield where the two armies were fighting.
This operation quickly attracted the attention of the soldiers who were fighting on the battlefield. Soon, they saw the black army send out a group of cavalry to intercept Yi Tian.
Yi Tian watched as the ten men on black puppet horses spread out in all directions to surround him. He tightened his legs on the horse's belly and pulled on the reins, controlling the Scarlet Flame Stallion to escape through the gaps.
A few horses seemed to want to catch up. Yi Tian took out a handful of Ghost Face Flower seeds and injected his spirit force into them before shooting them out.
This large formation restricted the use of his spells, but it was still somewhat effective to borrow spiritual power from external objects. Coincidentally, the Ghost Face Flower seed was flicked into the bodies of the black army puppets and slipped into the gaps between the puppets.
The divine sense attached to the seeds lost its target. However, Yi Tian didn't care about that. No matter how bad the trick was, it was fine as long as it worked.
Sure enough, after ten breaths of time, the three puppet horses behind him slowed down. Some small shoots slowly grew out from the joints of the puppets, restricting the movements of the entire puppet.
Seeing that his method was effective, Yi Tian didn't hesitate to use the same method to deal with the many pursuers behind him. After clearing them all, the path in front of him was cleared. Now, all he had to do was to charge into the Red Team's front line and complete the mission.
Just as he was thinking, the Scarlet Flame Stallion suddenly felt the ground beneath its feet shake. It immediately stopped and prepared to run to the side. Suddenly, a black figure emerged from the mud.
Yi Tian focused his eyes and knew that things weren't good. In front of him was a huge black puppet that was more than ten feet tall. It held a six-foot-long steel sword in its hands and blocked his path.
At this point, Yi Tian finally understood that this guy was the final guardian he had to face. Forgive me for not seeing that when it appeared, the black army didn't chase after it. The soldiers on both sides also tacitly held their positions. Wei and Jin clearly didn't want to take half a step into the enemy's territory.
On the huge battlefield, the sounds of fighting in other places were actually just for show. Only the flash of light on the blade of the steel sword in the puppet's hand clearly indicated that this was not a joke. What was about to happen next was real.
After Yi Tian dismounted, he called the Scarlet Flame Stallion back into his beast bag. Then, he took out the Taiyuan Sword and held it in front of him. In his left hand, he held a few Ghost Face Flower seeds and secretly injected spiritual energy to prepare for the second plan.
Suddenly, the puppet moved. After it took a big step, its body made a series of "ka ka" sounds. However, its movements weren't vague at all. It sprinted forward and suddenly raised the steel sword in its hands and slashed at Yi Tian.
He gathered his spiritual power on his feet. Although he couldn't use an escape technique, he could still jump with his feet. Yi Tian hadn't fought in close quarters for over four hundred years. However, as his cultivation continued to increase, his body had undergone considerable training in all aspects.
In addition, when he was in the White Horse Gang, he relied on his own skills to make a living. Even after he started cultivating, he didn't forget these moves. He would still practice them from time to time.
After he steadied his feet, he held the sword in front of him with both hands. With a "dang" sound, he felt his feet sink into the ground. He was actually at a disadvantage after one attack.
He slowly used the Golden Sun Movement Technique. At this moment, his skin faintly glowed with a golden halo. He used all his strength to parry the opponent's steel sword. With a powerful kick, he dodged away.
After coming back to his senses, Yi Tian hurriedly extended his left hand and flicked the Ghost Face Flower seeds toward the puppet. The seeds seemed to have taken root. They plunged into the puppet's body and disappeared.
However, this time, the situation wasn't as easy as he thought. He saw the puppet's hands tighten and once again charge forward with its sword. This time, its momentum was even fiercer. There wasn't anything out of the ordinary.
After being stunned for a moment, Yi Tian could only brace himself and raise his sword to meet the puppet's attack. However, there was a change in his moves. He no longer met force with force. Instead, he repeatedly used moves like the "Retreat Drum", "Wind Break", "Deflating Force", and "Borrowing Force to Counterattack".
The black puppet had an energy core to support its kinetic energy. He didn't want to compete with an inanimate object. After ten moves, the puppet's moves began to slow down. Its movements were no longer as smooth as before. He secretly praised himself. It seemed that the Ghost Face Flower seeds had taken effect. This way, as long as he spent a bit more time, he could win without a fight.
Just as he was thinking, a red light suddenly appeared in the puppet's eyes. Then, there was a creaking sound. Yi Tian suddenly had a bad premonition. He saw the puppet's spirit energy explode. It swung the steel sword in its hand and randomly chopped down.
