Qing Yangzi sighed when he saw the Buddhist Sect's sudden increase in offensive power! The Perfected Cultivator beside him also noticed something.
"The Buddhist Sect is running? Senior Brother, we … "
Qing Yangzi smiled bitterly. "There are experts in the Buddhist Sect! It's just the right time to leave now! If we delay any longer, we will be able to hold them back! There's no point in doing so!
This isn't running, it's a strategic retreat! Because they've already achieved their goal, using their small fries to exhaust our elite forces …
Can we chase after them? Can we? Are we going to leave the foundation of the Three Pure Ones here? "
Everyone was silent! One had to pay a huge price to delay the enemy. The universe was vast and there were countless directions. One couldn't cut off the enemy's path of retreat just by occupying one or two mountains. One had to go up and entangle the enemy. This was also the most difficult tactical move to execute in a battle between cultivators!
If the Three Pure Ones dared to do so, the Buddhist Sect wouldn't mind taking this opportunity to wipe them out here!
Therefore, they could only watch as the Buddhist Sect made careful arrangements and retreated in an orderly manner!
Qing Yangzi sighed again. "Fighting halfway through a war is like excreting only half of a pile of shit. Don't you think it's uncomfortable?"
…
While Qing Yangzi was feeling melancholy, the planet belt was cleaning up the battlefield!
Of the eleven thousand Winged Men that came here, nearly a thousand of them lost their lives in the Fifth Ring. In the years of stalemate, two to three thousand of them died. Then, they were besieged by the sword range and lost another three to four thousand. In the end, only about four thousand of them managed to escape safely.
The Winged Ones didn't flee as an army. Instead, they were being chased by the allied forces of the Five Rings. There were hundreds of them in large groups and tens of them in small groups. Based on their understanding of the starry skies of the Origin World, once they were separated, they were destined to never be able to reunite!
In the future, how to exterminate these defeated Winged Men in this universe and the surrounding universes would be a very realistic problem. They could only rely on their own efforts, and there was no other good way.
Without any hesitation, everyone gathered together and began to advance towards the Traversing Star System. The group of nearly ten thousand cultivators moved out, blotting out the sky and covering the earth. Their aura was exuberant. No one would doubt their victory in the upcoming battle!
Strength lies in Daoism, luck lies in the Five Rings!
While running, Lou Xiaoyi felt that there was someone beside him. It was a kind-looking old Daoist priest. The old Daoist priest was very friendly and introduced himself.
"I'm Zhang Jin, and I'm here to thank you for saving the Fifth Ring! Xuanyuan is really talented! To be able to bring someone back from the distant Heaven's Choice, amazing! "
Looking at the Sword Soldier Army behind him, he was truly envious. Unfortunately, the orthodox Daoist could not do this, because there were very few realms that could have so many suppressed elites. Basically, it was the Daoist who suppressed other orthodoxies.
"If you have the chance, you can come and visit the Supreme Seat. Although our inheritances are different, if you really think about it, it wouldn't be a lie to say that we have the same origin! In the future, when we travel in the void, we can help each other and overcome difficulties together! "
Lou Xiaoyi thanked him politely. This was the first time the old Daoist priest had met him, so he didn't talk much, nor did he talk in depth. He had a good sense of propriety and was also a wise old man.
This time, the situation of the Winged Warriors was completely different from the battle against the swarm of insects. The Winged Warriors had no fighting spirit, so their losses were minimal. Everyone was looking forward to the final battle against the Buddhists to increase their glory. The morale of the army was high, and this was the best state an army could be in.
Lou Xiaoyi was summoned to a few Xuanyuan Yang Gods, who began to carefully ask him about what he had seen and heard in Zhou Xian and Heaven's Choice. Of course, they didn't ask him about how he had grown up or what adventures he had encountered. These things were personal secrets, and no one cared about them.
The Yang Gods were first concerned about the situation between Heaven's Choice and Zhou Xian, followed by some questions about the Sword Dao Stele, and finally, the origin and composition of this group of people under him. These things would affect the judgment of the higher-ups about the general trend of the universe.
"Do you think this will be a protracted battle?" Gong Yao asked.
Lou Xiaoyi nodded. "It should be, if the people of Zhou Xian don't make any big mistakes!"
"How long will it last?" Shang Ting was very interested, because they didn't know much about Zhou Xian's Heaven and Earth Chessboard, and they didn't have a clear understanding of the strength of Zhou Xian's cultivators.
Lou Xiaoyi thought for a moment. "I'm not sure, but I think it should be more than a hundred years!"
He Qu was obviously more concerned about something more personal. "Talk to us about the Sword Dao Stele! The old guys never talk about it, saying that only what we see is the real Sword Dao Stele! I don't believe in this. What's there to hide? Since Xiao Yi can go in … "
Without waiting for Lou Xiaoyi to answer, Guan Du stopped him first. "Xiao Yi, don't say it! There's no need! Lou Zu once said that if you go, you'll know. If you don't go, it's useless even if you know! It'll only increase your obsession! "
He Qu shrugged, seemingly dissatisfied, but since his senior brother had spoken, he had nothing to say. He just thought about how to find time to go to the Heaven's Choice Continent.
Even for Yang Spirit cultivators like them, a trip to the Heaven's Choice Continent was a long journey! Compared to a Yin Spirit like Lou Xiaoyi, they were limited. Because the distance was too far, in the Fifth Ring, the Heaven's Choice Continent was still at the level where only Half Immortals could come and go freely. They didn't know much about the changes in the Heaven's Choice Continent after the collapse of the Great Dao. They also didn't know that the current Heaven's Choice Continent had completely fallen to the point where even Yuanying cultivators could enter!
Right now, the biggest obstacle for them was time! Before the chaos, the sect wouldn't restrict them, and no one could restrict the movements of Yang Spirit cultivators like them. But now that the universe was in chaos, it was inevitable. Of course, as the main fighting force, they couldn't be allowed to be free. If they left for hundreds of years, what would happen to the sect?
That was the biggest problem!
Looking at Lou Xiaoyi with narrowed eyes, Lou Xiaoyi felt a chill in his heart. The narrowed eyes of an old monster who had lived for thousands of years meant that the hope of going to the Heaven's Choice Continent was on him. Moreover, Lou Xiaoyi was sure that among the ten Yang Spirits present, every one of them had this thought. It was just that He Qu was the most outwardly expressing it.
Guan Du coughed lightly. "In the next battle against the Buddhists, Xiaoyi, your subordinates will be arranged in the periphery or at the back. We Fifth Ring people never use others as cannon fodder, especially true friends. This has nothing to do with strength. You have to make it clear to them!"
Lou Xiaoyi nodded. "I understand! But they're not my troops. The reason why they're willing to come with me is because this is the orthodoxy of the Crow Ancestor, so they also treat Xuanyuan as their home!
As for the Outer Dao, they're friends and brothers. They can come and go freely, and I have no right to arrange their future. "
Guan Du nodded. "Very good! But I'm worried that this battle might not be able to happen! "
