Chapter 823 Ten Directions Extermination Formation
Just as Li Mu and Xia Caiwei were talking, a battleship slowly caught up with them. On the deck of the battleship, Xiang Zu and Situ Meiren looked at each other coldly. Li Mu noticed the gaze and turned around, and his and Xiang Zu's eyes collided.
The two eyes collided, and sparks seemed to burst out in the void. The soldiers on the two battleships felt their whole bodies tremble, as if an electric current was flowing through them.
Many soldiers looked at Li Mu and Xiang Zu in confusion. Seeing their expressions, the soldiers felt a chill in their hearts. They lowered their heads quickly, not daring to look any further.
One of these two dared to go deep into the water demon army alone and forced the demon fairy-level demon to self-destruct in the water demon army, and the other was a real strong man in the Great Saint Realm. There was no one they could offend.
The two looked at each other and then looked away. This was not the place to do anything.
"Has the blood seed been planted yet?"
Xiang Zu withdrew his gaze and sent a message into the secret to ask Situ Meiren.
"Don't worry, it's already been planted. It's foolproof. That kid didn't notice it!" Situ Meiren also used Taoist voice transmission to say, "When are we going to deal with this kid? This kid is extremely talented and his combat power is not low. We need to deal with him as soon as possible." Only then can hidden dangers be eliminated!”
"This is not the place to do anything. Let's go back to the temporary headquarters first. Since that kid has been marked by blood, he can't escape!"
Xiang Zu said with a sneer.
The remaining forty or so warships quickly flew to the Academy's temporary headquarters. This was already the only territory in the Qinghu battlefield besides Qinghu Fortress that was still controlled by the alliance military and academic forces.
Before the Air and Space Army passed by, Mo Jiutian had already issued an order, ordering all students in the mountain city to gather at the temporary headquarters. Currently, there are about 300,000 students from major colleges and universities in the mountain city active on the eastern battlefield, but as the Air and Space Army The base has been lost and the Alliance military has been organized to evacuate. Now the situation on the eastern battlefield has also taken a turn for the worse and will soon become extremely dangerous.
After receiving the order from the Mountain City Alliance military, Mo Jiutian immediately discussed with other leaders of the Mountain City First Monastery College. Then, while issuing orders to the students of all colleges, he discussed with the Mountain City Alliance military to mobilize a large number of spiritual stone support from the mountain city. , all the monastic college students in the mountain city have begun to arrange large formations at the place selected by the temporary headquarters, preparing to build fortifications to resist the water demon army.
The temporary headquarters is preparing to build ten large formations to form a ten-party extermination formation and use the formations to fight.
The Shifang Extermination Formation is one of the top formations of the Dao Sect. The defensive capabilities of this formation are even stronger than the walls of the fortress. However, to operate the formation at full strength requires a large amount of spiritual stones, so generally unless it is an extremely wealthy castle , otherwise, deploying this large formation at all, and deploying this formation in a small area will not have much effect.
However, the current situation is special. The Mountain City Alliance military has supported a batch of spirit stones, and the major colleges have also used their own wealth to support the temporary headquarters.
The temporary headquarters now has hundreds of thousands of teachers and students from major schools, as well as 300,000 soldiers, as well as the air force. Neither the Mountain City Alliance military nor the major schools in the mountain city fortress can afford to lose. .
What the mountain city cannot afford to lose is losing control of the entire Qinghu area's war situation. The mountain city must defend the Qinghu Fortress. Once the Qinghu Fortress is lost, the mountain city will directly face a two-sided attack, which will be dangerous.
That's why there was this order to not give up an inch of territory. Now Shancheng can no longer afford to lose any territory.
Just before noon, more than 40 warships finally arrived at the temporary headquarters. The temporary headquarters was now set up on the edge of the eastern theater, only a few dozen miles away from the mountain gate where the incense was used to prove the Shinto.
Now the entire temporary command headquarters extends forward ten kilometers, and large formations are arranged on ten nearby mountains. Looking down from the sky, at least hundreds of thousands of people are setting up large formations and building fortifications. Thickly packed people are busy. It looks like a hard-working ant.
Ships fell one after another, the soldiers were briefly repaired, the injured soldiers were sent for treatment, and others immediately got into busy work.
The water demon army will definitely not let go of the mobile force of the Air Force, and they will work hard to exclude all human forces from the Qinghu area and create the most suitable situation for taking down the Qinghu Fortress. Therefore, the water demon army will definitely pursue Come here, this is not only Li Mu's judgment, but also Mo Jiutian and the Shancheng Alliance military side.
The fighting may break out again at any time, maybe today, maybe in a few days, but no matter when it is, this war will definitely break out.
What the temporary headquarters can do now is to step up the deployment of large formations, build fortifications, and gather all the academic forces scattered in the Qinghu War Zone.
Li Mu returned to the temporary headquarters. As expected, Nangong Mingyue and Tao Yuewei had also returned here. The temporary headquarters continued to send out tasks. Most of the tasks were to help build formations and fortifications, and some tasks were to respond to those who were coming. students from major universities.
The strength of students in major colleges varies. Some outer sects or loan students are average in strength. Once surrounded by water monsters, they often need other people to respond. Now the temporary base needs more manpower, the better, so there are often people in recent days. Similar tasks are issued.
Five days later, the entire temporary base was brightly lit. The formations on the ten mountains had been deployed two days ago, and strong men were even arranged to garrison them. Other fortifications were also built as much as possible.
In the past five days, basically all living humans in the entire Qinghu area, except Qinghu Fortress, have gathered around the temporary headquarters. The temporary headquarters has gathered 300,000 soldiers and more than 300,000 students from major universities. , but in addition to supporting various supplies and weapons, the Mountain City Alliance military did not arrive with reinforcements.
Even the armored ships of the Aerospace Forces were transferred back to the mountain fortress.
This information is confidential and has not been told to ordinary soldiers or students from major universities. However, Li Mu and Nangong Mingyue are well-informed. Nangong Mingyue has the Nangong family to constantly send news, while Li Mu has the Silver Ball to constantly investigate and take temporary command. He is very clear about the entry and exit of various personnel and materials in the department.
As soon as the information the two of them exchanged, they basically understood the current situation. Now the mountain city regards their place as a bait.
"In this current situation, Shancheng is ready to support Qinghu Fortress at all costs. The temporary headquarters is the bait. Once the water demon army and strong men attack, Shancheng's reinforcements will immediately rush to Qinghu Fortress and try their best to get into the city. Support, and even if the battle situation here is tense, I suspect that they may even join forces with the Qinghu Fortress to go out of the city to seek a decisive battle with the Qinghu Water Monster!"
This is not Li Mu's inference, but something that is really possible. Once the water demon army and strong men are dragged here, and they cannot quickly return to the aid of Chen Bing's water demons outside Qinghu Fortress, Qinghu Fortress may directly counterattack. , took the initiative to go out of the city to fight, trying to destroy the large water demon army first, and then rescue this area to completely stabilize the situation in Qinghu.
Once the Qinghu water demon is really severely damaged, there will probably be no more wars in the Qinghu area for at least ten years.
From a strategic level, a Qinghu Fortress is indeed far more important than the people gathered here at the temporary headquarters. If the people here can be sacrificed to save the Qinghu Fortress, it is completely acceptable to the mountain city.
This is true on a strategic level, but for people like Li Mu and others here, no one wants to be sacrificed, so they must defend this place.
"I wonder if the water demon army will come!" Nangong Mingyue also said worriedly.
Ever since she learned that the Air Force Base had been lost, Nangong Mingyue did not dare to be optimistic anymore. A base as big as the Air Force Base could be lost, and even the Demon Immortal Level Tribulation Overhaul could kill or injure her. Even if she had many cards, with Li Mu He was protected and did not dare to run around on the battlefield.
"The water demon army has arrived!"
As soon as Li Mu finished speaking, a piercing alarm sounded immediately. All the resting people jumped up and immediately entered the fighting position.
The ten mountains were densely packed with people moving quickly. Some were running wildly on the mountain roads, while others were flying in mid-air, quickly preparing for battle.
Soon the news that the water demon army had arrived nearby spread throughout the defensive position.
"Senior Brother Li, the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft ahead has discovered the water demon army. The number of the water demon army is estimated to exceed 2.5 million. Among them, there are more than 20 large demon-level demons suspected of being demons, and more than 2.5 million emperor-level demons. Five hundred, the water monster army may arrive here in two hours!"
Yun Feiyang said nervously.
Li Mu already knows this news, and what he knows is even more detailed than what the temporary command headquarters knows. After all, the silver ball can completely scan the energy response of a living body.
The number of the water demon army is indeed around 2.5 million, with an error of no more than 100,000, and there are a total of 23 demon-level demons.
Among them, there are three in the late stage of the Fairy Level, eight in the middle stage of the Fairy Level, and a total of twelve in the early stage of the Fairy Level.
"How is it possible? Isn't it possible that the total number of Qinghu Water Demon Emperor-level monsters is only about five hundred, and the total number of demon-level monsters is only a dozen or less than twenty? How is it possible that they are sent to the battlefield here alone? Five hundred emperor-level demons and twenty-three demon-level demons?”
Zhu Yihou asked with a look of disbelief.
Tao Yuewei and Luo Qingqing also had the same expression. Before coming to the Qinghu area to participate in the war, most people had a certain understanding of the overall strength of the Qinghu Water Monster. Now what Yun Feiyang said has exceeded their understanding of the Qinghu Water Monster. learn.
"Some sea monsters have already entered Qinghu Lake. These extra strong water monsters should all be sea monsters. This news is true!"
Li Mu said in a deep voice.
Li Mu's words made everyone's expressions become solemn. They had successfully deployed the Ten Directions Extermination Formation before. In the past few days, the students at the temporary headquarters had broken away from the atmosphere of the Air Force's fall and regained their confidence. But now it is enough. Twenty-three demon-level monsters came to kill them, and each of Tao Yuewei and the others felt their hearts heavy.
"Don't worry too much. Although there are more demon-level demons coming this time, the water demon army only has about 500 emperor-level demons. The strength of the emperor-level demons is equivalent to that of the minor saint, but There are at least 1,500 Little Saint Realm powerhouses here at the temporary headquarters, and we have an absolute advantage in terms of Little Saint Realm powerhouses!"
"In addition, there are more than 600,000 people gathered here at the temporary headquarters. Relying on the Ten Directions Extermination Formation, we are not necessarily weaker than the water demon army. In fact, the gap between the Great Saint Realm and the water demon army is not that big, let alone Mo Jiutian, Sun Biyuan and Mo Rulong, as well as other powerful people in the Great Sage Realm such as Xiangzu, Situ Meiren, and Xia Caiwei, who are undergoing major repairs in the Tribulation Period, and there are also some top geniuses from major colleges and universities in the Small Sage Realm. You can also fight against a demon-level demon!"
"If we defend them and attack them, the gap won't be that big!"
Li Mu analyzed directly.
Now at the temporary headquarters, there are two powerful people in the Great Sage Realm in the military. One is the commander-in-chief of the Air Force, Mo Rulong, and the other is the commander of the combat troops, Bai Zhen. The other powerful people in the Great Sage Realm are in the Tribulation Period. They are all academic people, including Shanwu representative Mo Jiutian, Shanwu core true disciple Xiang Wang, Shancheng No. 1 monastic academy dean Sun Biyuan, Shancheng No. 1 monastic college core true disciple Situ Meiren, core true disciple Xia Caiwei, and another one is Shancheng No. 1 monastic academy. The old principal of another martial arts university.
In the Great Sage Realm, there are a total of eight major cultivators in the Tribulation Stage. The gap between eight and twenty-three is not small. However, there are still some top academic geniuses in the headquarters, such as Li Mu. Even if they have not yet reached the Great Sage Realm, they can still do it. A battle with the demon fairy level monster, coupled with the nearly a thousand more small saint realm experts than the water demon army, can completely close this gap.
The biggest advantage of the water demon army is not the demon fairy level powerhouse, but the 2.5 million water demon army. The number of the water demon army is almost 200 more than the number of soldiers and students at the temporary headquarters. Thousands, this is where the real difference is the biggest.
"Then what should we do now?" Yun Feiyang said, "Senior Li, we will all listen to you this time!"
"If you don't want to take risks, then stay in the mountains farther back and guard the Ten Directions Extermination Formation. If you are not afraid of risks and want to get more merit, then follow me to the first peak!"
Li Mu thought about it and said.
The first peak is the first barrier of the Ten Directions Extermination Formation. Once the water demon army arrives, it will be the place where the most intense fighting will occur. But the place where the most intense fighting will take place means that it is the place where it is easiest to obtain meritorious service.
"If you want to go, go; if you don't want to go, stay!"
"I'll go. If one more of those water monsters dies, it will be good for the current situation, and you can also get merit. I want to kill more water monsters!" Yun Feiyang said after thinking for a while.
He is also stimulated by Li Mu now. How glorious Yun Feiyang was when he was in the outer courtyard of Shanwu. He was number one in the outer courtyard and everyone looked up to him. At that time, Li Mu had just entered Shanwu. But he didn't expect that a few years later, Li Mu would soar into the sky. He is already the number one in the Shanwu inner sect and a strong man of the third level of the Lesser Saint Realm, but he has not even touched the Lesser Saint Realm.
Yun Feiyang also wants to improve. He needs to get as many meritorious deeds as possible, exchange those meritorious deeds for more resources, and create better training conditions.
