Chapter 349

Boom——the spirit explosion suddenly exploded right between Tang Yin and the Piercing Cloud Sword, and the sound was so loud that it seemed that the ground was shaking.

Tang Yin was hit by it, and his body was ejected directly from the top of the city wall to the outside of the city wall. With a plop, he fell among the soldiers of the direct army. Looking at Tang Yin again at this time, the spirit armor on his chest and abdomen, as well as the spirit armor on his face, were all shattered, and his whole body was covered in blood. He lay on the ground motionless, just like a dead person.

The Piercing Cloud Sword, which was also hit by the explosion like him, was not much better. His body was ejected and hit the wall of the tower. Because the shock wave was too strong, he was already deeply trapped in the wall, and the spirit armor on his body was also broken into pieces. Blood kept flowing out of his head and body. He exhaled more than he inhaled, and it was obvious that he was dying.

Tang Yin was seriously injured and fell from the top of the city wall. His life or death was unknown. However, the soldiers around him and Wu Guang, Zhan Hu, and Shangguan brothers who were climbing up the city wall were frightened. People rushed up to Tang Yin and called out repeatedly: "Sir? Sir?"

The people around him shouted anxiously, but Tang Yin did not move and had no reaction.

Seeing this, Ye Cheng on the top of the city wall was so excited that he almost jumped up. He didn't care about Chuanyunjian's life or death. What he really cared about was Tang Yin. If Tang Yin died, the Tianyuan Army would be defeated without a fight, and his own merit would be great. He pointed at the unconscious Tang Yin outside the city and shouted to the soldiers on his left and right: "Shoot! Shoot him to death! Throw the pounding stone to smash Tang Yin to death!"

The soldiers of the Peng Army naturally would not miss this rare opportunity. People opened their eyes wide, twisted their bows and arrows, and shot at Tang Yin. Many people raised the pounding stone and smashed it down.

Zhan Hu, who was standing under the city, was so anxious that his eyes turned red. He suddenly shouted, "Get out of my way!" As he spoke, he waved his hands and pushed away all the soldiers of the direct army around Tang Yin. Then he pushed in front of Tang Yin and used his huge body to protect the unconscious Tang Yin.

Ding Ding Dang Dang!

The arrows shot from the top of the city did not hurt Tang Yin. They all hit Zhan Hu's back. The arrows hit the spiritual armor and made a clanging sound. Fortunately, the soldiers of the Peng Army had not received formal archery training, and the force of the arrows was limited. Otherwise, even if Zhan Hu had a high level of cultivation, he would be shot into a hedgehog by such a dense arrow formation.

Zhan Hu could block the arrows of the Peng Army, but he could not block the falling stones. Boom! The first pounding stone hit Zhan Hu's back, and his body was also shaken. Before he could react, the second pounding stone hit him again. He staggered forward, but he gritted his teeth and didn't fall. However, with the third and fourth pounding stones hitting him, Zhan Hu couldn't stand up and knelt on one knee with a plop. However, he didn't fall down. Even when he knelt on the ground, he still pressed the ground with both hands, gritted his teeth to support his body, and blocked Tang Yin's top to prevent him from being affected by the pounding stones.

As the saying goes, a friend in need is a friend indeed. Zhan Hu is not a good speaker, nor is he good at expressing his inner thoughts. However, Tang Yin brought him from Du Ji to Feng Country, and turned him from a slave and sand bandit who was not allowed to see the light into a dignified general who was watched by thousands of people. Zhan Hu was full of gratitude in his heart. He had already made up his mind to follow Tang Yin until his death. Now that Tang Yin was in danger, Zhan Hu risked his life to protect him, and would rather use his own life to keep Tang Yin alive.

The rolling logs and pounding stones kept hitting Zhan Hu's back and back of his head like raindrops, and blood dripped out from the gaps in his spiritual armor at his neck. It was the blood flowing from his mouth and nose.

At this time, Wu Guang and Shangguan brothers also rushed over. When they looked closely, the three of them were shocked. They saw Zhan Hu kneeling on Tang Yin, surrounded by scattered pounding stones, rolling logs and arrows. The spiritual armor behind him was full of cracks and could break at any time.

Wu Guang roared and said to Shangguan brothers anxiously: "You two, take the adults and Zhan Hu away!" After saying that, he dragged his sword to block Zhan Hu again, and used the spiritualized Yanyue Sword to knock down the rolling logs and pounding stones flying down from the city.

While Wu Guang was holding off the opponent's attack, Shangguan Yuanwu and Shangguan Yuanbiao carried Tang Yin and Zhan Hu on their backs respectively and ran quickly to the back of their own camp.

When they returned to their own camp, Qiu Zhen and others were all shocked when they saw Tang Yin's appearance at this time. Even the calm and mature Qiu Zhen was a little confused and felt that a disaster was imminent. Fortunately, he calmed down quickly. While he had someone carry Tang Yin back to his camp, he also had someone find military doctor Su Yelei to give Tang Yin first aid, and conveyed the general's order that the entire army temporarily stop attacking the city and return to the camp.

Qiu Zhen knew very well that Tang Yin's injury could not be concealed. Once the news spread, it would cause a great blow to the morale of his soldiers. Instead of increasing casualties, it would be better to withdraw the troops immediately and think of another strategy.

Under Qiu Zhen's order, the Tianyuan Army that attacked Yancheng retreated completely, and the battle of Yancheng, which had been fighting for nearly a day, finally came to an end.

In this battle, the Tianyuan Army and the defenders in Yancheng suffered heavy losses, but Ye Cheng was very excited and felt that the hope of defending Yancheng had greatly increased. Of course, Tang Yin's injury was the main source of his confidence. Although it is still unknown whether Tang Yin is dead or alive, according to the situation at the time, even if Tang Yin could save his life, he would be seriously injured and would not be able to recover in a short period of time. The Tianyuan Army would not be able to raise morale and launch a large-scale siege in the near future. This would give Wancheng enough time to gather troops, and once Zhong Tian's reinforcements fell, they would have nothing to worry about.

As for the Cloud-Piercing Sword, which promised to die together with Tang Yin, he really died. The explosion of the spiritual explosion shattered his internal organs on the spot, and he died before he could even receive first aid. Regarding the death of Cloud Chuanjian, Ye Cheng felt no sadness in his heart, but felt that he died well.

As Qiu Zhen expected, the news of Tang Yin's injury soon spread throughout the army. The officers and soldiers of the Tianyuan Army were all worried and panicked. They had no fighting spirit at all. People were afraid that if Tang Yin died unfortunately, their own army would become invincible. The scattered army of the Lord. With the soldiers' mentality, the Tianyuan Army was indeed unable to organize an effective attack.

Tianyuan army camp, Tang Yin camp.

The counselors headed by Qiu Zhen and the generals headed by Xiao Muqing gathered outside Tang Yin's tent. Everyone frowned and paced back and forth anxiously and worriedly at the door. From time to time they stopped to lift the curtain to see what was going on inside. But fearing that it would affect the first aid provided by Su Yelei and other military doctors, Qiu Zhen stretched out his hand several times, paused in the air, and finally took it back.

Zhan Hu was also standing among the crowd. In order to protect Tang Yin, he was also seriously injured. However, Zhan Hu was strong and had rough skin and thick flesh. He didn't care about some internal or external injuries. At this time, his heart was tied to Tang Yin's safety. He squatted On the side of the camp door, I grabbed my hair from time to time.

Seeing everyone's impetuous mood, Zong Yuan licked his dry lips and said softly: "Your Majesty's physique is different from ordinary people. He recovered quickly from such a severe burn last time. I believe you will be able to save the day this time." His words not only comforted others, but also comforted himself.

People's minds were like bright mirrors, and they understood that the situation this time was completely different from the last time. Last time, Tang Yin was burned, but the spiritual armor was still there, and his skin was not injured. He just fainted due to the thick smoke. This time, Tang Yin was burned. After being hit hard by the other party's spiritual force, all the spiritual armor on his body was shattered. The situation was extremely bleak.

No one answered. There were so many people gathered outside the tent, but the scene was eerily silent, except for the sound of rustling footsteps from time to time.

Uh-huh!

At this moment, the curtain of the tent was lifted, and a young guard walked out from inside, holding a basin filled with blood and water. When everyone saw this, they felt anxious and rushed forward, surrounded the guards, and asked anxiously: "How is your situation, sir?"

The young guard grinned and shook his head, whispering: "It's not clear yet, the medical officers are working on first aid."

"this……"

The guard's words did not make everyone feel relieved, but made them even more worried. Su Yelei and others had been giving first aid for almost an hour, but there was still no result, which showed how serious Tang Yin's injury was.

The young guard did not dare to stay any longer and walked away quickly with the basin in hand.

At this time, Cheng Jin suddenly said: "I have a way to save you!"

"What?" Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and looked at Cheng Jin strangely. Cheng Jin is just a dark spiritual cultivator and has never learned medical skills. How can he save people?

Seeing that everyone was looking at him and frowning, knowing that they didn't believe what he said, Cheng Jin said quietly: "I can save you with a death sacrifice!"

Death sacrifice is a unique dedication skill in dark spiritual martial arts, which can transfer all one's life, soul, and aura to the victim. Tang Yineng became a dark spiritual cultivator because he was subjected to a severe death sacrifice and became one with him. Now, seeing that Tang Yin was in critical condition, Cheng Jin thought of this skill that he could sacrifice himself to keep Tang Yin alive.

Many people had never heard of the Death Sacrifice skill, and their faces were filled with confusion. However, Jiang Mo and other secret arrow personnel beside Cheng Jin were also shocked, and only paused for a moment. Several people in the secret arrow had already stepped forward. , all bowed their hands to Cheng Jin and said: "General, I am willing to sacrifice!"

The feelings of the Dark Arrow personnel towards Tang Yin are different from those of others. In the eyes of others, Tang Yin is the hope of wiping out the national thieves and restoring the Feng Kingdom, but in the eyes of the Dark Arrow personnel, Tang Yin is still the hope of the Dark Element spiritual cultivators. As long as Tang Yin is around, the Dark Element can There will be great hope for Lingwu, and one day it will be spread openly and openly in the world.

Cheng Jin looked at the people under his command, smiled slightly, and said: "I proposed it, so naturally I will do it!" As he spoke, he looked at Jiang Mo and said sternly: "After I am gone, the hidden arrows cannot be dispersed. You must take care of it for me!" After saying that, without waiting for Jiang Mo to reply, he raised the curtain and walked directly into Tang Yin's tent.

"General..." Seeing Cheng Jin enter, the secret arrow personnel were anxious and wanted to follow him. At this time, Qiu Zhen hurriedly stepped forward and stopped everyone. He looked around at the hidden arrow personnel, sighed softly, and said: "If... sacrificing General Cheng alone can save your life, it is... worth it!"

Others may not know what death sacrifice is, but Qiu Zhen, who is well-informed, understands. He couldn't bear to see Cheng Jin die, but there was no other way and he could only take the risk.
