The eight Demonic King s brought their Demonic Beast and slaughtered their way into the crowd. Flesh and blood splattered, and miserable screams continuously sounded. One Immortal soldier after another died. Roughly half an hour later, more than half of the 100,000 Immortal soldiers had died, and the rest of the Immortal weapons were heavily injured, losing their ability to fight. The battle was a one-sided battle and Murong Gang saw it all and felt pain in his heart.
When they came, Nine-wheel Immortal King had specifically said that if they met Han Yan's army, they must have the seven great immortal lords' men charge forward, while his people were at the back. No matter what happened, the huge army of 100,000 could not die more than half. At the moment, although only 50,000 people had died, at this rate, it wouldn't be long before all of the Immortal weapons were buried here.
As Murong Gang thought of this, under the rage that was attacking his heart, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face became even more pale.
Zhao Zhiruo sighed, supported Murong Gang and said helplessly: "Husband, why don't we run!"
In the surrounding mountains, Demonic Beast were everywhere. Murong Gang really did not know where to escape, so he said with a bitter smile: "Can we still escape?"
Zhao Zhiruo's eyes flashed. He pointed to a mountain in the southeast and said, "There are less Demonic Beast over there. I can bring ten thousand hunters to escort you …"
Murong Gang wished that he could leave now. Hearing Zhao Zhiruo's words, he did not even hesitate, and said: "Since that's the case, let's go first!"
Zhao Zhiruo nodded his head, and said: "We will leave everything behind, there's nothing to be afraid of."
Just like this, Murong Gang and Zhao Zhiruo, escorted by more than ten thousand hunters, flew towards the southeast direction. As they continued to kill, the Demonic Beast did not try to defend themselves as if they were afraid of something. Not long after, Murong Gang and the rest made it out of the encirclement, and flew straight towards the mountain range ahead.
Before leaving, Murong Gang stared at Han Yan, seeing that Han Yan was commanding the battle and did not realize he had already left, he hatefully said: "Han Yan, there will be a day when I will attack you and personally take your life."
Had Han Yan really not realized that Murong Gang had escaped? The answer was naturally no.
Han Yan had been observing the situation of the battle from the start, and no one's actions could escape his eyes, how could he not know that Murong Gang and the rest had left? Actually, he had intentionally let Murong Gang escape, because the hatred between him and Murong Gang could not just be let go like this. He wanted to let Murong Gang, after seeing hope, die in despair.
Everyone did not know what Han Yan was thinking. After the Earth Dragon discovered that Murong Gang had escaped, it flashed in front of him and asked unhappily, "Younger Brother Han, why did you let that fellow leave on purpose?" He had wanted to kill Murong Gang since a long time ago. If it wasn't for the fact that Han Yan and his kindness were still present, and if it was another person who let him go, he wouldn't have used such a tone to speak.
Han Yan smiled slightly, gave the Earth Dragon a gaze that told him not to worry, and said: "Draconis, do you trust me?"
Hearing that, the Earth Dragon frowned, and said puzzledly: "Of course I trust you, but what does this have to do with letting Murong Gang go?" His brain wasn't working, and even now, he still couldn't understand the meaning behind Han Yan's words.
Han Yan turned around to look in the direction that Murong Gang had left and sternly said, "Draconis, since Murong Gang has escaped, it is nothing more than to notify the rest of the Immortal weapons. But don't forget, I have set up a formation in the surrounding mountains, and the same is true for the ones they are fleeing from. "I've already activated the formation. They can only circle around the mountain, but not escape …"
Earth Dragon finally understood Han Yan's intention, but after thinking about it for a moment, he became confused again. He asked: "Younger Brother Han, why are you doing this? Wouldn't it be fine if we just kill that fellow? "
Han Yan waved his hand and said, "Kill him straight away. Although he can take revenge, I can't let him die in despair …" Saying this, he spoke out the thoughts in his heart.
The earth dragon was startled, then laughed innocently. It gave a thumbs up and said: "Younger Brother Han, you must have thought it through thoroughly. I feel ashamed of myself …"
The hundred thousand Immortal soldiers originally still had the strength to fight. Xiao Hui seized the opportunity and shouted loudly, "Immortal soldiers, your Marshal has already escaped. Now, you two only have two choices: to cripple your cultivation, or to be killed …"
When the immortal soldiers heard this, they no longer had any thoughts of fighting. Even the Grand Marshal ran away, what was the point of them continuing to fight? Besides, this was an unbeatable battle, he might as well surrender now! As a result, most of the immortal weapons abolished their cultivation and chose to surrender. The rest of them believed that even if they surrendered, they would still be killed by the Immortal Emperor in the future.
The thirty thousand Immortal soldiers that surrendered were arranged by Han Yan to go to the Heaven Decimating City to work hard to build a house. Although they had abolished their cultivation and were no different from mortals, they had all cultivated for so many years, and their strength was much greater than that of ordinary people, so they had more than enough strength to build houses.
Han Yan ordered a portion of the Demonic Beast to clear up the battlefield, and then led the land dragon and the others to chase after Murong Gang.
As for Murong Gang, after they flew out of the mountain, they secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Zhao Zhiruo looked ahead, and said in a deep voice, "Husband, we have two choices. One is to notify General Li and the others, and the other is to return to the Xianyi City right now."
Murong Yi thought for a moment and said: "Which one is less dangerous?"
Zhao Zhiruo analyzed: "If we go find General Li and the rest now, it is very likely that Han Yan is lying in ambush. If we really fall into Han Yan's trap, I'm afraid we will all die in battle." Speaking to here, she paused for a moment, and then continued, "If we leave now, Han Yan and the rest shouldn't chase after us, they have a better chance of escaping back to the Xianyi City."
After hearing everything, Murong Gang sighed, and laughed bitterly: "When I came, I brought a hundred thousand immortal weapons, and now all of them are dead, how am I supposed to go see the Immortal King? If we find General Zhao and the others right now and have them charge into the city, capture Han Yan and obtain the Jindan formula, the Immortal King not only won't blame me, he might even heavily reward me … "
Zhao Zhiruo did not want to find General Li and the others, she thought that even if the army were to go all out, they might not necessarily be able to kill Han Yan, so she said: "Husband, let's go back to Xianyi City quickly!"
Murong Gang was also a stubborn person. He shook his head and said: "No, we must go and find General Li and the others. The huge army of a hundred thousand cannot die just like this …."
Seeing that there was no hope for him to persuade her, Zhao Zhiruo took a deep breath and said: "Alright!"0
With over ten thousand hunters following behind him, Murong Gang rushed towards the west gate. In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the edge of the mountain range and a huge gate appeared in his line of sight. Murong Gang secretly heaved a sigh of relief and said: "I thought that Han Yan would really ambush us. I never thought that we would not even encounter a shadow."
Zhao Zhiruo frowned, and was a little puzzled: "That's not right! With Han Yan's intelligence, there must be a reason behind this ambush. "
Murong Gang did not think too much about it, coldly snorted, and said: "Who cares what the reason is, let's go find General Li and the others first!" After which, he had to walk to the front.
Zhao Zhiruo took a big stride and pulled him back, and said: "Husband, we should let the scouts scout the path ahead!"
Murong Gang thought for a moment, then nodded: "Alright!" As he spoke, he called for a scout and let him walk in front.
In front of him was the end of the mountain range. As long as they passed through this mountain peak, they would arrive at the plains below the west gate. However, they never would have thought that the mountain peak in front of them looked like it was only a hundred miles away. The distance between them was unimaginably long, as if there was no end to it.
After walking for about an hour, Murong Gang realized that something was amiss. He stopped and asked in confusion, "Zhiruo, why can't we climb this mountain?"
Zhao Zhiruo had already realized that something was amiss since he did not think of the reason why he did not say it. At this moment, hearing Murong Gang mention it, she laughed bitterly and said: "Husband, if I'm not wrong, the mountain peak is surrounded by an extremely powerful array, it is very likely to be a magic array that we do not know about. We are wandering around inside the formation, unable to get out no matter how hard we try. "
Hearing that, Murong Gang's face changed, and immediately said: "Then what should we do? We don't have anyone here who is proficient in formations. "
Zhao Zhiruo's eyes flashed, he had a plan in his heart, and said: "Husband, don't worry. As long as we madly attack the surrounding mountains, we can destroy the formation. "Once the formation disappears, we can reunite with General Li and the others …"
Murong Gang nodded his head and then gave the order for all the hunters to attack the surrounding mountains.
Hunter took out his bow and arrows and shot towards the surrounding mountains. The arrows were shot into the forest. Dingdang's sounds were heard. Afterwards, the arrows bounced back onto the ground as if they met something. Seeing this scene, Murong Gang laughed heartily and said, "Zhiruo, your guess is right. There are indeed no formations set up here …"
Arrows shot out one after another towards the forest ahead. Everyone's immortal strength was being depleted at an extremely fast rate. After approximately two hours, when only ten percent of the immortal strength had been consumed, with a bang, the sound of the array formation collapsing echoed throughout the valley.
Murong Gang's face was pale white. Clearly, he had exhausted a large amount of his immortal strength as well, but his eyes were filled with excitement as he said ecstatically: "The formation has finally collapsed …" After he finished speaking, he thought of something and said to Zhao Zhiruo who was beside him, "Zhiruo, I'm waiting for my immortal strength to be exhausted so much, why don't I recover first and then go find General Li and the others?"
Hearing this, Zhao Zhiruo's anger rose. She did not expect Murong Gang to be even stupider than she thought, and she quickly reminded: "Husband, don't forget, this formation was set up by Han Yan. Once it disappears, he will definitely find out. If we stay here and recover our immortal strength, aren't we waiting for him to capture us? "
Murong Gang slapped his head, and said: "Seeing my memory, how could I have forgotten such an important matter?" As he said that, he patted the storage bag at his waist and took out a few pieces of profound energy recovery pellets. He gave some to Zhao Zhiruo and swallowed them. After the Pill had eaten, the immortal strength in his body was quickly recovering. Murong Gang gave an order to quickly move forward, then brought everyone to rush to the mountain peak ahead.
Originally, Murong Gang thought that they would be able to meet General Li and the others after passing through the mountain peak, but to his astonishment, another mountain appeared. It was similar to the situation earlier, he was unable to leave the mountain peak no matter what. Murong Gang stood in place, his pupils enlarged, and said in disbelief: "How is this possible, could it be that there's another magic array?"
Zhao Zhiruo suddenly thought of something, his eyes widened and he cried out: "Could this be the legendary array formation?"
Murong Gang did not understand formations at all, and could not help but ask: "What is an array within it?"
Zhao Zhiruo took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in his heart, and said slowly, "Legend has it that there's a kind of magic array that can be continuously used to break the first formation, and an even more powerful one outside. This kind of formation is also known as the formation within a formation. Just now, we took two hours to break through the inner layer of the formation. The outer layer's defensive power is even stronger, and it will take at least six hours to break through it. "
As he spoke till here, Zhao Zhiruo changed the topic of his conversation: "I've consumed too much immortal strength, let me first recover my immortal strength!"
Just as everyone was about to sit cross-legged on the ground and recover their immortal strength, a voice suddenly sounded from the nearby forest, "You don't have to recover your immortal strength anymore …"
