Chapter 638 A Glance at Ten Thousand Years

Chu Chouli and the others did not have a good way to go north.

Their vast and mighty nearly a thousand people had a huge target. Even though Song Yueming and the others who had been rescued by Xu Han had heard Xu Han say that Gui Puti had promised them that no one would make things difficult for them along the way, they could go north with peace of mind.

However, out of caution, they still chose to return from Jizhou, which was relatively safe, to the deer horn plains, and then to enter the Chen Kingdom from the deer horn plains, which was the border of the three kingdoms.

Although they had long anticipated the dangers of this turn of events, there were some things that they hadn't expected.

Ever since Emperor Chu ascended to the throne in Chang'an, many unpredictable changes had occurred within the Great Zhou. The land began to dry up and rot, and the vegetation began to wither in large patches. Animals inexplicably died, or even fled in large groups. Dark clouds enveloped the entire Great Zhou territory.

The army from Chang'an began to suppress the panicked people. The young children were forcibly brought to the Sacred Palace, and how could the people be sent to eat the so-called sacred medicine? These things happened one after another in Liangzhou, Chongzhou, You Zhou, Qing Zhou, and other places. Only Jizhou, where the imperial court's control was weak, and Xuzhou, where the Sword Immortal Yue was in charge, had not had time to start.

The more unknown the matter was, the more terrifying it was. This point could be said to be vividly displayed in the bodies of these ordinary people.

The crowd of people began to flee with their old and young in fear. In this way, the group of people who were originally heading north just happened to sneak into the crowd and head north together. The bad thing was that the number of people who wanted to flee was too large. The Chu Imperial Court naturally would not watch such a large number of people leave. Thus, before the people left, the army rushed to the Sword Dragon Pass and blocked the crowd inside the Sword Dragon Pass.

As a result, Chu Chouli and his group were trapped in the Jizhou Sword Dragon Pass like these fleeing civilians.

And then.

Before the Mu Clan Army Commander Mu Liang could be dismissed, he found Chu Chouli and his group. The two sides clapped and decided to charge through. For himself, and also for the tens of thousands of people behind him who were trying to flee Jizhou.

…

"When Qingshan left, I didn't have the heart to guard this Sword Dragon Pass anymore, so I dismissed my subordinates. Only two to three thousand trusted aides were unwilling to leave. The army of the Imperial Court attacked the Sword Dragon Pass for no reason. We were weak, so we could only retreat." Standing on the plain a few miles away from the Sword Dragon Pass, Mu Liang looked at the pass in the distance and said with a complicated expression.

This was a grand trial that the Mu Clan's generations and hundreds of thousands of Mu Clan soldiers had poured out with fresh blood, but now, it had fallen into the hands of others. This truly made Mu's conscience not gloomy.

"How many of them are there?" As the prince of Great Xia, Li Moding was still the most sensitive to this battle. He did not have the mood to listen to Mu Liang's sigh, but directly asked the crux of the matter.

"Fifty thousand. However, it is impossible to estimate how many Holy Son Holy Weapons there are." Mu Liang replied with a deep gaze.

After the Sword Dragon Pass changed hands, Mu Liang had gathered the old Mu Clan army that had not yet been completely demobilized. At this moment, he had 20,000 elites under him. With the Mu Clan army's combat strength, as long as they could lure these 50,000 people out of the city, it wasn't that they didn't have the strength to fight. However, they were only afraid that the other party wouldn't be able to gather in the city. Of course, the Saint Child Holy Weapons hidden within the 50,000 troops were also a variable.

"So the most important thing is to draw that army out of the pass and force them to fight us." Li Dingxian also took over the conversation at this time.

"Yes, not only must we force them, but we must also hurry. My scouts have brought news that the reinforcements of the Imperial Court are already on their way. If they continue to drag on, it will be detrimental to us." Mu Liang said again.

On the side, Chu Chouli listened to their lively conversation. At this moment, he finally found an opportunity and interrupted, "You guys have said so much, then how can we lure them out?"

The three of them, who had said so happily just now, immediately fell silent when they asked this question.

Everyone's expressions immediately became serious. After all, if the commander in chief of the Sword Dragon Pass had any brains, he wouldn't have let Xiong Guan go and fought them head-on.

"So all of you have said is useless nonsense?" How could Chu Chouli not be able to guess their predicament from their looks? He mumbled without a choice of words.

Although Li Moding and Mu Liang were still able to suppress their anger, Li Ding Xian's expression changed and he wanted to argue with Chu Chou Li immediately.

However, before he could say anything, a figure suddenly stepped out of the crowd.

"Huh?" Everyone was stunned and couldn't help but cast their gazes at the person who had stepped out.

"Lead the army and prepare to charge through." That person said this, and his pupils in the darkness emitted a gloomy and cold purple light.

"You have a way to lure them out?" Mu Liang was stunned for a long time before he regained his senses and asked hesitantly.

After all, he had followed several generations of the Mu King's army to battle for many years. Although he could not be considered a god-like soldier, he was also proficient in this path. He really couldn't think of any way to lure snakes out of the cave.

When he looked at Liu Sheng with such doubts and expectations, the youth shook his head.

"I have no choice." Liu Sheng said this with an extremely calm tone, as if he didn't realize the inconsistency in his words at all.

"Then…?" This made Mu Liang and the others even more puzzled.

"But I can take them" Liu Sheng seemed to feel the confusion of the crowd. At that time, the corner of his mouth suddenly hooked into a smile. As he said this, the aura around his body suddenly began to churn, "Smash it out!"

As soon as he finished speaking, The aura around him suddenly reached its peak. A purple light flashed in his eyes. His black clothes suddenly shattered, and a pair of giant bone wings extended from his back. His body also expanded. In the blink of an eye, his entire body was covered in purple scales. A terrifying aura poured out from his body like a tide.

Boom!

At that time, the bone wings behind him flapped and a loud boom rang out. Then, his enormous body moved at an astonishing speed towards the city wall of the Sword Dragon Pass a few miles away. Just as he said, he wanted to smash the defenders of the Sword Dragon Pass out alive!

It wasn't until Liu Sheng flew a few miles and arrived at the city wall of the Sword Dragon Pass that the surrounding people finally reacted.

Mu Liang hurriedly pulled out his sword from his waist and shouted, "Charge!"

At that time, the twenty thousand troops behind him let out an explosive shout as if they had received an edict, and then they rushed towards the pass in the distance. At that time, the people beside him also gathered all the internal energy in their bodies to quickly catch up. Only Chu Chouli, whose cultivation was still shallow, was stunned as he looked at the people who had left.

In the end, he could only shout loudly, "Wait for me!"

But the battle between the two armies was a matter of time, how could anyone still have the leisure to take care of him? In the end, Chu Chouli's call ended in nothing. He glared angrily at the group of soldiers who were flying away, but in the end, he still had to eat the dust raised by the crowd and quickly follow up.

…

Although the Sworddragon Guards had noticed the crowd crouching in the distance from the start, Liu Sheng didn't relax in the slightest, but he suddenly killed Liu Sheng too quickly. The three Saint Sons were sent to stop Liu Sheng, but none of the Saint Sons who were close to the half-step Immortal Realm before they were sanctified were Liu Sheng's enemies.

The bone wings on Liu Sheng's back suddenly stretched forward, and the sharp wings pierced through the heads of the two Saint Sons. Then, he waved his fist, and the last Saint Son turned into a rain of blood under the incomparably strong wind of the fist.

After that, Liu Sheng's body did not stop for a moment. He braved the rain of arrows pouring down from the Sword Dragon Pass and continued forward. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of the Sword Dragon Pass. Without the slightest hesitation, he punched out again amidst the shouts of the defenders.

Boom!

With a loud explosion, a hole of ten zhang in the towering city wall was suddenly blasted out by him.

The existence of the Sword Dragon Pass can be traced back to the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty. In order to guard the gate, the Great Zhou Great Ancestor spent a lot of money to build the Sword Dragon Pass. Not only was the city's deep wall high, but its entire body was made of incomparably solid Luo Tieshi. This item was extremely expensive, causing the Sword Dragon Pass to almost exhaust the Great Zhou's treasury.

Even though Liu Sheng's current cultivation was comparable to that of the Immortal, he had only managed to break through a hole with his full strength.

Of course, Liu Sheng was naturally not satisfied with this. After that punch, the aura around him surged, and then the punch wind poured down like a torrential rain on the city wall of the Sword Dragon Pass.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Rumbles echoed along with his fists like explosive pearls.

The city wall of the Sword Dragon Pass began to shake. After a brief moment of surprise, nearly a thousand figures jumped down from the city wall of the Sword Dragon Pass. As they jumped down, their bodies grew larger. Purple scales covered their entire bodies, and violent auras surged. Those nearly a thousand figures were all Saint Sons and Saint Weapons!

They attacked Liu Sheng who was tearing apart the Sword Dragon Pass as soon as they completed their sacrifice.

Liu Sheng naturally sensed this and his heart surged with killing intent. He knew that he had underestimated the strength of the Sword Dragon Guard. But now, he was already unable to ride a tiger, so he gritted his teeth and forcefully withstood the fierce attack of the group of more than twenty sainted sons who had rushed to the front.

Once the Saint Son's Sacred Cultivation base exceeded half a step into the Immortal Realm, even though he hadn't reached the Immortal Realm, the strength that the twenty of them unleashed when they attacked at the same time was no less than that of the Immortal Realm.

Liu Sheng's body trembled as he forcefully withstood this attack. His internal organs were almost completely damaged, but the powerful power of the divine seed instantly repaired such injuries. But at the same time, with this restoration, an indescribable hostility surged out of his body, almost devouring him.

His eyes were bloody red. He knew that he had to vent this hostility, so he clenched his fists again and ruthlessly rumbled the pass in front of him.

Boom! ! !

An incomparably loud explosion exploded. At that moment, the thick Sword Dragon Pass was pierced through by such a punch.

A cry of alarm sounded from the city wall. The several zhang wide city in front of Liu Sheng suddenly collapsed. Although it was not enough to endanger the entire Sword Dragon Pass, the opening of the gap meant that the people behind him had the conditions to charge into the Pass.

At the same time, when the Saint Sons and Saint Weapons saw this, they were even angrier. They let out a furious roar and attacked Liu Sheng again.

After experiencing what had just happened, Liu Sheng did not dare to resist the attacks of these monsters. The bone wings on his back suddenly spread out and turned in the air. His sharp wing bones waved like saber light, killing several Saint Weapons and forcing back the attacks of those Saint Sons.

At this time, Su Mu'an and the others finally arrived. Without the slightest hesitation, the saber light and sword shadows lit up at that time, attacking these monsters like waves of water. However, the twenty thousand Mu Clan soldiers that Mu Liang had attracted were stopped by the arrows on the city wall. They could only set up bows and arrows in the distance to support Liu Sheng and the others. However, in the face of a great battle of this level, all they had done had little effect.

Mu Liang looked at the shaking figure in front of the entrance with a calm expression. Feeling the violent winds stirred up by the violent forces, his expression gradually became bitter from shock. He suddenly understood why Mu Qingshan had let the Mu Clan army demobilize this world. Dead Chu had created a monster, and such a monster made an ordinary army look like ants in front of them.

Just like how the twenty thousand Mu Clan soldiers were helpless at this moment, even if there were ten times more of them, Mu Liang felt that the impact on this situation would be negligible. Moreover, what was happening in front of him was only the foreplay before the real battle.

…

The scale of victory gradually began to tilt.

After all, Liu Sheng and the others had misjudged the strength of the defenders on the city wall.

The huge number of Saint Sons and Saint Weapons had an almost crushing advantage. This advantage was not only in terms of quantity, but also in terms of quality.

If it weren't for the fact that there was still a Liu Sheng who was close to the Immortal Realm and was still struggling to hold on, everyone would have already lost, but even so, they were still fighting and retreating at this moment, and their decadence was self-evident.

"My lord, let me fight. Kill this group of fanatics and clear the way for His Majesty."

On the city of the Sword Dragon Pass, a girl who looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old had a look of fanaticism in her eyes. She looked at the green-clothed woman beside her and said this.

The azure-clothed woman who was watching the battle at the gates turned her head to look at the girl beside her and whispered, "You are no match for him."

The young girl was slightly stunned when she heard this, but she quickly reacted. She turned her gaze to the city wall and looked at Liu Sheng, who was fighting with many Holy Sons and was bathed in blood. She was puzzled, "Did Your Excellency say that Half Demon? Although his strength was indeed extraordinary, it seemed that he was at the end of his rope at this moment."

At that time, the green-clothed woman looked at the white-clothed girl beside her with pity. Then, she turned her gaze to the fighting Liu Sheng. One of his bone wings had been broken, and his eyes were bloodshot. An undetectable black gas surged around his body.

"The strength of a half-demon is far from what you can imagine. He is suppressing his own strength. If he is really willing, he can easily raze the entire Sword Dragon Pass to the ground in an instant."

The white-clothed girl was a little angry. She said unhappily, "Then why didn't he do this? Has Sir overestimated this fellow too much?"

The green-clothed woman chuckled and did not answer her.

The white-clothed girl seemed to realize that she had lost her composure just now. She quickly changed her attitude and asked respectfully, "Then what should we do next, Master?"

"Let go."

"Huh?" The white-clothed girl's expression changed, and she became even more puzzled. "Once the Lord Saint Son and Saint Weapon are sanctified, there is no turning back. Nearly a thousand Saint Son Saint Weapons are sanctified. If we do not obtain some results, how should we explain it to the Saint King?"

"Are you teaching me how to do things?" The green-clothed woman asked. Although her tone was still calm, it caused the white-clothed girl's heart to instantly turn cold.

She hurriedly lowered her head and knelt down on one knee. She said in fear, "This subordinate does not dare. I just want to share the worries for my lord."

The azure-clothed woman's lips curled into a cold smile when she heard this. "The puppet is worthy of my worries? I think you've forgotten your identity, right?"

The white-clothed girl did not dare to be dissatisfied with what the green-clothed woman said at this moment. She knelt on the ground and lowered her head firmly, "What Your Excellency said is very true. Please forgive me for being so reckless."

Seeing her like this, the green-clothed woman did not pursue the matter with her. She turned around and looked in the direction of the city gate as if she had lost interest in talking to her. Her gaze began to wander through the crowd below the city, and finally landed somewhere. The corner of her mouth curled into a smile, and a hand extended out at that moment.

She opened her fingers like white jade, and dark energy fluctuations gushed out from her sleeves, enveloping the entire Sword Dragon Pass.

Under that force, the many Saint Weapons and Saint Sons who were still vicious just now were like puppets that had lost their strings. They all stopped their movements and stood there in a daze.

Liu Sheng and the others were stunned for a moment, not understanding where this change had come from. For a moment, they looked at each other with puzzled gazes.

At this moment, a gentle voice suddenly sounded from the city wall.

"It's been many years since you and I have spoken properly."

"Come up and drink a Gu with me, and I'll let you pass."

"He Ru?"

Liu Sheng and the others were even more puzzled by these words. What they said was somewhat headless and even inexplicable.

"Alright!"

However, right at the entrance of the stall where everyone was puzzled, a rough voice suddenly sounded not far away.

Everyone looked over, only to see a fat middle-aged man with a beard standing behind the Mu Clan Army, panting heavily and sweating profusely.

His body was a little dusty and his expression was a little awkward, but at this moment, his gaze that looked up at the city wall was as bright as snow.

As a result, the green-clothed woman's extended hand suddenly clenched tightly at that moment.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Light sounds exploded around Liu Sheng. At that time, all the heads of those ferocious Saint Sons and Saint Weapons exploded, and their flesh and blood flew everywhere. In the end, they turned into a rain of blood. It was like a grand firework that rose up to welcome the arrival of something.

The green-clothed woman cast her gaze at the man at that time. The two of them were several miles apart, but the moment their gazes collided, they smiled at each other coincidentally.

It was as if the peach blossoms were beautiful when they first met that year.

Her green clothes were like spring water, and he was as elegant as a teenager.

It was just a glance at the water in the pond from a distance of three months…

That glance was ten thousand years old.
