Transmigration begins with archery training

This is not the true core of the formation!

For the first time, a hint of solemnity flashed across Sun Xiangzong's aged face.

"The one surnamed Sun!"

far away.

The leader of the Witch God Cult revealed a triumphant smile: "You've fallen for my trap!"

Sun Xiangzong took out the spirit pearl, sensed the distribution of this evil vein, and examined the array patterns left on the altar. He quickly figured out the operating principle of the so-called blood sacrifice array.

This place is the source of evil energy.

The true core of the formation should be at the end of the evil vein, which is the barbarian capital... Wolf Dwelling Mountain!

"Cao Kai, this place is yours!"

Without uttering a single wasted word, Sun Xiangzong was about to take off and leave Liangzhou. However, there was a barrier in the sky that blocked his way, and even he could not break through it.

Don't bother!

Master Deng sneered, "Since you're here, don't even think about leaving. From this moment on, no living thing in Liangzhou will be allowed to pass through!"

This was their open conspiracy from the start.

This blood sacrifice formation has a total of three array eyes, two main and one auxiliary, which correspond precisely to the three most important locations of the evil vein. They echo each other and can continuously draw energy from the evil vein to complete the blood sacrifice formation.

No matter how powerful Sun Xiangzong was, he could only destroy one place.

The other two key points can continue to function.

"Om-"

Cao Kai flew into the sky and slashed down with his sword, but it still couldn't budge the tree in the slightest.

He looked at the commander-in-chief: "What should we do?"

"The auxiliary formation's core is in the east, in the direction of Youzhou."

Sun Xiangzong squinted.

He did not personally participate in the battle, but used his last energy to deal with the strange phenomena in the Luotian Mountains. However, he did not completely ignore the intelligence from the front lines.

No wonder the barbarians are behaving strangely, mainly attacking Youzhou.

There.

It is an auxiliary formation point.

It is also the gate of life!

Destroying the auxiliary array's core will open a path to survival.

Everything has its weaknesses, and formations are no exception. This Gate of Life is one of the weaknesses of the Blood Sacrifice Formation.

As long as the barbarians firmly control the key points of the formation on the border of Youzhou, they can ensure that no one escapes alive.

Moreover, Sun Xiangzong speculated.

At this point in time...

Youzhou has fallen!

To be precise, it was torn open.

The barbarians' target was not Youzhou, but Zhutuo Pass on the border of Youzhou!

"Cough cough cough..."

Sun Xiangzong coughed a few times, then took a large amount of pills to maintain his condition. He then gave Emperor Longqing the best solution: "Either send someone to Zhutuo Pass to find the location of the gate of life, or go to Langjuxu Mountain and destroy the other main array eye."

The key point of the formation here has been destroyed.

If the two main array eyes can be destroyed, the array will no longer be able to operate with only the auxiliary array eye.

"Mount Langjuxu?"

Cao Kai's eyes twitched almost imperceptibly: "That is the capital of the barbarians, which is tens of thousands of miles away from here."

When he mobilized his troops for the northern expedition, he never intended to reach Yinshan. His greatest hope was to conquer the area around the Agate River and use it to train warhorses for the Great Sheng Dynasty.

Langjuxu Mountain...

That's a bit too far away.

"Take care of these people first!"

Enraged, Cao Kai drew his sword and prepared to kill the leader of the Witch God Cult and Master Deng.

"We dare to come here because we have something to rely on!"

Master Deng waved his hands, and array flags appeared in front of him, falling around the last few survivors, and then a barrier appeared to envelop them.

After several attempts.

Emperor Longqing then sensed that this barrier was faintly integrated with the blood-stained array in the sky.

"Don't waste your efforts!"

Master Deng sneered, "Unless the blood sacrifice formation is broken first, this barrier will not break!"

They directly borrowed the power of the ancestral vein of evil energy, which is far beyond the reach of low-level formations.

at the same time.

Above their heads.

Above the dome, the blood sacrifice formation condensed into a black and red vortex, from which billowing crimson blood mist drifted out. Ten thousand feet in the sky, the moment a strange beast eagle came into contact with the blood mist, its flesh and bones turned into blood, which was absorbed by the formation and then became nutrients for the revival of the evil veins.

After the blood mist descended from above, filling the heavens and the earth.

Within Liangzhou City, both people and livestock will be subjected to sacrificial rituals, resulting in widespread suffering and destruction!

"Cough cough cough..."

Sun Xiangzong's cough became increasingly severe, forcing him to sit cross-legged on the spot and practice internal energy cultivation to recuperate.

"The gate of life, the gate of life."

The Longqing Emperor muttered to himself, "I cannot die here, nor can I possibly die here. Since there is a way out, we will surely be able to open it and take Youzhou."

"Chirp—"

He summoned the gyrfalcon, took out paper and pen from his storage bag, and was about to give orders to the front.

See this.

The leader of the Witch God Cult, hiding inside the barrier, laughed: "Cao Kai! Are you confused?! The barrier is sealed off, how will your army get out?!"

This was precisely what Emperor Longqing was worried about.

According to the original plan, there were only eight hundred light cavalry outside at this time!

There simply wasn't enough time to transfer troops from other places to Youzhou.

"Haha~"

Faced with such a dire situation, Sun Xiangzong, who was recuperating cross-legged, actually sneered.

"Zizhan, why do you sneer?"

The Longqing Emperor said, "If we cannot leave this place, both you and I will die here."

"I'm laughing, laughing at that emperor who hides on the dragon throne in the capital, holding the life and death of others in his hands, for even he has moments of panic. Truly, he has brought this upon himself! How hateful..."

Sun Xiangzong suddenly raised his voice: "It's hateful that you alone are greedy for life and commit evil deeds, but you have dragged millions of people in Liangzhou down with you and made them die unjustly! Cao Kai, you will never be reincarnated!"

"The ten days in Yunzhou have nothing to do with me."

Emperor Longqing was not angry. After finishing the letter, he had Hai Dongqing take it away. Feeling the Longyuan Sword in his hand, his gaze gradually became deep.

The Dragon Abyss Sword still holds half a kingdom!

……

Inside Liangzhou City.

"Look!"

"Look, what's that in the sky?!"

"..."

Such a tremendous phenomenon was clearly visible not only in Liangzhou, but also in the surrounding prefectures.

Above the Luotian Mountains.

Amidst the dark clouds, a pitch-black vortex suddenly appeared, from which eerie, blood-red mist fell, obscuring the entire sky, like a blood-red bell trapping countless living beings within.

"what happened?!"

"..."

The edge of the Great Wall.

The sixth prince Cao Huan, Fang Qingyun, and several veteran generals personally came to see off the Xuanwu Camp and Baihu Camp as they set off for the expedition.

Shortly after the two battalions of soldiers left.

A blood-red wall of mist appeared between heaven and earth, its edge about two miles outside the Great Wall.

"This……"

"What kind of magic is this?!"

Cao Huan said somewhat nervously, "Quickly, go and take a look!"

A soldier rode up to the edge of the fog wall and, out of curiosity, reached out his arm to touch it.

"Bah!"

"what--"

In an instant.

The soldier's arm turned to blood, and he collapsed to the ground, howling and struggling.
