Transmigration begins with archery training

Upon arriving at Xingfeng Mountain, they discovered that the situation was indeed extremely serious.

After Xue Jingfeng was seriously injured, only two Golden Core cultivators remained to hold the fort, and the number of cultivators was reduced to just over 18,000.

Although one Golden Core cultivator was lost at the hands of Dugu Ao, the demonic army still maintained four Golden Core cultivators after reinforcements were sent, bringing the total number of cultivators to over 60,000, nearly four times that of the righteous path.

The protective array of Xingfeng Mountain has been severely damaged. If this continues, it can only hold out for a little over a month before the mountain is captured and everyone will have to retreat to Longxiang City.

If no reinforcements arrive by then, the entire Sese Road could very well fall.

“Mingquan Lake was part of Tianshui Island a long time ago.”

In a grove of trees, Lu Zhiyong sat on the ground, looking anxious, and said, "After the fall of Mingquan Lake, tens of thousands of cultivators became food for the demonic cultivators. Do you think this time, will it be a repeat of what happened at Mingquan Lake?"

"Yes, the mountain-protecting formation is about to collapse."

Someone chimed in, "It's said that the battle situation on the side of True Monarch Tiansha is also very tense, and they might really abandon Si Xue Dao..."

"Then what do we do?"

"..."

People were panicked for a while.

Chen Sanshi finally found the blind woman leaning on her sword by a stream and asked, "How are your injuries, Senior Sister?"

"Can't die."

Jiang Xiyue's calm tone conveyed a sense of aloofness.

Chen Sanshi was already used to the other party's temperament, so he didn't take it to heart. He simply said, "If Senior Sister's injuries can't hold up, perhaps she can apply for a mission to return to the sect to deliver a message."

"If he wants to escape, he can escape; I will never escape."

Jiang Xiyue immediately guessed what the other party meant and gave a firm answer. When she said the word "escape," a clear sense of disgust welled up in her heart.

Upon hearing this, Chen Sanshi knew that Lord Taishan must have secretly asked the blind woman to persuade the other party to escape.

Judging from the senior sister's attitude towards Lord Taishan, it's as if they were her father's killer.

If Mu Chutai really only wanted to impart supernatural powers to him, why would he go to such lengths?

There is probably a deeper connection between the two of them.

Now is not the time to pry. Chen Sanshi controlled his curiosity and advised, "Let's keep things separate. Senior Sister, please don't act rashly. If you really can't hold on, I'll find a way to send you away."

Through his Qi-observation technique, he clearly saw the faint, dark red light emanating from the dantian of the blind woman's body, which was very similar to the symptoms she had experienced at the bottom of Hundred Flowers Valley.

"Disciples of all sects, there is no need to be alarmed!"

A middle-aged man dressed in a blue robe with a gold medal hanging from his waist appeared in the sky and said in a loud voice: "The current predicament is only temporary. We only need to hold on for another ten days!"

"Ten days from now, His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty will lead the elite Imperial Guards to the Sishui Road for a personal expedition!"

"The problem will then be easily solved!"

"..."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately began to discuss it amongst themselves.

"The Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, the Imperial Guards?"

"But I heard that the Imperial Guard only has five thousand men?"

"..."

Emperor of the Song Dynasty?

Chen Sanshi didn't know much about this person, only that his reign title was Tianxi, so he could simply refer to him as the Tianxi Emperor.

Emperor Tianxi was publicly known to be at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm.

As for the Imperial Guard, it consisted of five thousand cultivators.

This was a restriction imposed on the Song Dynasty by Emperor Shengzong a long time ago: the number of cultivators directly under his command could not exceed five thousand.

Although the number of Demon Suppression Divisions scattered throughout Tianshui Continent is large, they cannot be gathered together according to the rules of the Holy Sect.

For example, members of the Demon Suppression Division of Beiyang Road are not allowed to gather with members of the Demon Suppression Division of the neighboring road unless under special circumstances.

Furthermore, each Demon Suppression Division must have a disciple of the Holy Sect serving as its deputy commander.

In addition, there are sects and immortal cultivation families in various places, so the power of the Demon Suppression Division is really not much. At most, it can only manage ordinary people.

Closer to home.

If the Song Dynasty can mobilize the Imperial Guards this time, although the number of five thousand men is not large, the number of Golden Core cultivators among them is quite significant.

If two or more Golden Core cultivators could arrive, the pressure on Si Xue Dao would be greatly reduced. With two more Golden Core cultivators, holding out would not be a problem at all.

Upon receiving the news, the disciples of each sect were greatly encouraged and worked even harder while guarding the mountain.

This is undoubtedly a good thing for Chen Sanshi.

Only if the situation in Si Xue Dao stabilizes can he find a way to continue striving for the only Creation Jade Dew.

Ten days is neither a short nor a long time, and the casualties among righteous cultivators are increasing almost every day.

Moreover, strange events began to occur in their rear, within the territory of Siseki Province.

The phenomenon of "dead villages" is becoming increasingly common!

At first, it was just a few scattered villages, then it spread to individual cities, and finally, it was a large-scale death, spreading like a plague throughout the entire Sishui Road.

Ahead lay a ferocious army of demonic cultivators, while behind them lay a mortal town piled high with corpses.

The monks' psychological pressure increased day by day.

But just when everything reached a critical point, the Song Dynasty's reinforcements finally arrived as scheduled.

and……

They are not five thousand people.

But...

fifty thousand!

This day.

With the protective array of Xingfeng Mountain completely destroyed, just as the righteous cultivators had nowhere to hide and were preparing for a desperate fight, the mountain's protective array was completely destroyed.

Above the Si Xue Road, one large warship after another suddenly appeared, with densely packed imperial guards arrayed in the dark clouds.

His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty stood before a vast army, wearing a crimson dragon robe and a black crown.

The situation turned around in an instant!

Under the leadership of that Song emperor, tens of thousands of soldiers descended from the sky, repelled the demon army near Xingfeng Mountain, and re-established the defensive line.

"Great!"

The righteous cultivators who survived and waited for reinforcements were all overjoyed.

"fifty thousand!"

"A full fifty thousand people!"

"Unexpectedly, Emperor Tianxi of the Great Song Dynasty actually transferred most of the Demon Suppression Division and Demon Suppression Guards from the entire Tianshui Continent to Sixue Road!"

"Stable!"

"..."

"However, if I remember correctly, the Holy Emperor stipulated that the Song Dynasty was not allowed to assemble such a large number of Demon Suppression Guards. Doesn't what they did constitute a violation of the law?"

"Isn't this a special case?"

"Right."

"..."

Compared to the issues they were discussing, Chen Sanshi felt that things were a bit strange.

To gather 50,000 Demon-Suppressing Guards, they would need to be mobilized from all over Tianshui Continent, which is simply impossible to complete in such a short time and then deploy to Sixue Road, unless...

The Song Dynasty was well prepared!

They had already sent out the transfer orders to various places at least a year ago, and after the incident in Seseol Road, they immediately rushed to this place from different areas to assemble.

of course……

This war between good and evil has been going on for many years, so it's not impossible that the Song Dynasty made preparations in advance.

However, there are still some parts that don't make sense.
