Mortal: Reincarnated as Han Li's sister

Chapter 227 Prelude to the Great War
Half a month later,

The day of decisive battle has arrived in a blink of an eye!

Early in the morning that day, the monks patrolling the Tiannan front saw the glow of light flashing in the distant sky, and then the thunderous drums sounded, and groups of Mulan troops calmly flew out of the camp, driving Holding the magic weapon, he drove towards the center of the border, and the patrolling monks who had been prepared hurriedly sent back the transmission notes.

After a while,
In the Tiannan camp stationed on the front line, long bursts of bells were also heard. Then, many monks who had been recharging their strength for a long time came out of the camp and turned into countless startling rainbows rising into the sky, heading towards the same place. And go.

In an instant, all kinds of spiritual lights filled the sky, and clear chirps and long whistles came and went. Whether it was the army of magicians from the Mulan tribe or the army of monks from Tiannan, when they could vaguely see the distance between each other, they invariably appeared a few seconds apart. The light stopped ten miles away, and then looked at each other with hostility from afar.

The two sides haven't taken action yet, but the shocking murderous aura is spreading between the two formations. One side has no way out and must fight to the bitter end to find a way out for the whole clan. The other side has stayed in its homeland for a long time and does not allow foreign enemies to invade. The same morale is extremely high!
Luo Ningxin and Nangong Wanli stood in the void. Behind them was a queue of more than a thousand monks. This was the formation of the Hiding Moon Sect. Two groups of people came from them, and the other group was led by the great elder of the Hiding Moon Sect. Lead the team, not far away.

"Too many people…"

Nangong Wan couldn't help but sigh,
Luo Ningxin couldn't help but nodded. With such a scale, it was indeed the most massive scene she had ever seen.

At a glance,
Dozens of miles ahead, there are patches of glow from the Mulan camp. In each patch of glow, there are hundreds of Dharma gathered there. These glows remain at a convenient distance and are connected intermittently, stretching for more than hundreds of miles. far away.

Obviously both sides have used their main force. Although the specific number of people cannot be estimated, there are at least millions of monks gathered here!And high-level immortal cultivators, who are rare to see under normal circumstances, are now everywhere.

However, although the number of people is roughly the same, the similarities and differences between the two sides can still be seen.

Although the Mulan magicians have different costumes, the weapons of the lower-level magicians are all simple ones. They are either shiny round bowls or balls as big as fists, but the most common ones are sticks of various colors. Different magic flags and sword-like magic weapons.

As for the Tiannan monks, the magical weapons in the hands of the low-level monks can be said to be all kinds of, but they are mostly bells, tripods, towers, and flying swords. These magical weapons are shining brightly and full of spiritual energy. In terms of level, the equipment of Tiannan's low-level monks is slightly better than that of the Mulan tribe.

but,

Although Mulan's side was far inferior to the Tiannan army in terms of equipment, this group of monks from various tribes in the prairie fought in an orderly manner. Even if they were flying in the air, they still maintained a mysterious formation, each and every one of them. He remained silent and looked over with hostile eyes.

The Tiannan monks were obviously not trained enough. Although they barely maintained their formation, they were in a state of chaos and disorder. Not only were there constant whispers, but there were also people who left the formation from time to time to do other things, making the high-level monks in the alchemy stage above unable to do so. If you don't come down, give me a few words of scolding.

Luo Ningxin couldn't help but frown slightly when she saw this.

This is probably the difference between the advantages and disadvantages of the two sides. Although the Tiannan side is well equipped, their fighting skills are obviously not as good as the Mulan side. Just having these monks line up is a headache for those high-level monks.

The Mulan army on the opposite side is different. Although it is also composed of a coalition of many Mulan tribes, it is common for magicians from various tribes on their grasslands to form a coalition, and they will become well-trained after a little training.

These differences in advantages and disadvantages are naturally very clear to the senior officials in charge of the Tiannan monks, but they are also unable to do anything about it. Fortunately, the immortal cultivators are not a secular army. The key to determining victory or defeat is not the quality of these insignificant troops. So I can only turn a blind eye.

"Xiao Qing, you can hunt to your heart's content later..." Luo Ningxin touched Xiao Qing's beautiful feathers and said with a chuckle.

The most eye-catching thing on the opposite side is not Master Mulan, but the dozen or so huge and abnormal wild beasts in the army of magicians!They let out bursts of terrifying roars and stood tall in the ranks of Mu Lan's army. The tallest ones could reach nearly a thousand meters, and their shapes were like mountains, which was extremely eye-catching.

Many Tiannan monks have seen the power of these wild giant beasts, so they cast a lot of eyes on these giant beasts, with a hint of fear. However, in Xiao Qing's eyes, these are the best blood food. .

"If you see something is wrong later, use the Great Void Escape Talisman I gave you to escape. I will lend Xiao Qing to you then..." Luo Ningxin said to Nangong Wan.

She couldn't help but worry about her younger brother Han Li, after all, he would join the battle with her.

Han Li had already left his original seat and hid behind a group of monks. Obviously, before the gambling battle began, he did not want to be noticed by the high-level magicians on the opposite side. He was as steady as ever...

After arranging everything, Luo Ningxin couldn't help but look at another group of monks adjacent to the bottom. This group of monks had about a thousand people. In the middle were male and female monks wearing red and green clothes, sixteen each. Two huge coffins were carried, one black and one white, side by side.

The coffin was covered with various talismans, large and small, dozens of them, which looked a bit strange.

Luo Ningxin recognized these male and female monks as disciples of the devil's way. In addition to these two coffins, there were also some strange and eye-catching things appearing in the queue of other monks.

On the other side, monks from an orthodox sect surrounded a bronze platform about six or seven feet high, on which stood a huge copper gong with a diameter of about ten feet.

The surface of the gong was shining with golden light, and white runes appeared from time to time. Nearby, there was a shirtless, tall man sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.

There are more than a dozen bronze statues in the ranks further away. They are three to four feet high. They seem to be somewhat broken and lifelike. They are carried by some animal carts. It is unknown what their purpose is. As for the ranks of monks further away, there are also some strange ones. Weird things appear.

And in addition to these surface treasures, there are also countless things at the bottom of the box that have been put into storage bags by the monks of the sect and cannot be seen.

It seems that

The sects in Tiannan all knew that this battle was not a trivial matter, so they all took out some of the treasures from their bottom boxes, which could be said to be a huge investment.

the other side,
Looking at the Mu Lan army in front, Master Zhiyang pondered for a moment and then asked hesitantly: "Fellow Taoist Hehuan, the skills used by those men in black robes are also demonic skills. Fellow Taoist cannot accurately identify the origin of their skills. Really? The only thing we have to worry about now is the people in black robes and the gambling war..."

"Hmph! They practice demonic skills. I should know them by now? I have only heard others describe the characteristics of the black-robed men's skills and have not seen them with my own eyes. How can I make an accurate judgment? The only certainty is that, The magic skills of these people seem to be much more refined and ingenious than those of our Six Heavenly South Sects, and they are somewhat similar to the skills of the Ghost Spirit Sect lineage in the past..." Hehuan Laomo sneered.

"The exact number of these mysterious black-robed men is not known, but judging from the people who have appeared, there may be more than a dozen black-robed Nascent Soul monks who have appeared on the battlefield alone, and they are obviously from the same sect. Among the monks, the only sect that can have such a diverse range of infant demon cultivators is the Great Jin!" Wei Wuya said indifferently. "Hmph! What's wrong with the monks of the Great Jin Dynasty? Seeing this group of mysterious black-robed men hiding and looking so sneaky that they don't dare to see anyone, they must be just one of the demon sects of the Great Jin Dynasty who are meddling in the affairs of our Tiannan Immortal Realm. ! It’s even just the intention of some people in this demon sect. What’s there to be afraid of? Just treat them as Mulan people and pretend not to know!” The beautiful woman in red who had been silent suddenly spoke with a cold voice. , but crisp and pleasant.

"Madam is right. Even if a demon sect from the Great Jin Dynasty secretly supports the Mulan people, it is limited. The Great Jin Dynasty is too far away from Tiannan. Even if they want to intervene, they are probably out of reach!" Long Han naturally supported himself. The wife said in agreement.

"The words are so true, but these Dajin Demonic Cultivators should not be underestimated!" Wei Wuya said in a deep voice.

they just finished talking,
There was a commotion ahead, and among Mulan's army, a skinny old man, a scholar in silver robes, and a middle-aged man in animal clothing were seen flying from the sky. They were the three great masters of Mulan Grassland.

The three Tiannan cultivators looked at each other and flew out of the camp.

A total of six great monks in the late Nascent Soul stage, when they were several hundred feet away from each other, they all turned away and stopped.

"How about it! It's not too late for these fellow Taoists to regret it now. As long as they cede half of the land of Tiannan Continent to us, the Mulan people, we can stop fighting and turn enemies into friends! Otherwise, no matter you win or lose after this battle, you will be I’m afraid that the Southern Immortal Realm will be severely damaged!” Divine Master Zhong Mulan, who was dressed as a silver-robed Confucian scholar, looked at Wei Wuya and others opposite, and spoke coldly first.

"It's a joke! It's true that our Tiannan Immortal Society will be severely damaged, but if you Mulan people are defeated in this battle, you will be exterminated! I think it is you Mulan people who should be more cautious!" Master Zhiyang Leng Hum.

Confucian scholar surnamed Zhong and Master Mulan, surnamed Bi, could not help but look slightly cold when they heard what he said, but they did not take any action.

"Since talking is useless and there is no room for negotiation, we can only fight to the death. But before that, let's have a gambling battle. You and I will jointly send people to set up a ban! No matter how much we win or lose, once the gambling battle is over, the decisive battle will begin. , life or death is determined by fate!" The skinny old man said simply and directly.

"Of course you can have a gambling battle. Where is the prisoner you promised? If you don't see anyone, hehe..." Hehuan Old Demon stared at the old man and sneered.

Upon hearing what the other party said, the old man squinted his old eyes, thought for a moment, and then moved his lips slightly to transmit a few words to the back.

Suddenly,

The Mu Lan army behind them lined up neatly, and with a sudden surge, more than thousands of monks with bare hands and nothing but clothes were pushed out of the queue.

As soon as these monks arrived in front of the formation, they had different expressions. Some were blushing, while others were glaring angrily at the magicians.

There was also a slight commotion in the army of monks opposite. Naturally, many of the captured monks recognized them.

When Wei Wuya and others saw this, they looked at each other and then nodded with a slightly calm expression.

"How's it going? You've all seen these prisoners. It's time to feel at ease now. Let's start the gambling battle quickly!" The monk surnamed Bi among the Mulan masters became impatient.

"Why are you so impatient? Could it be that this gambling battle, what are you planning to do?" Wei Wuya said unexpectedly.

"If you don't dare to wager a war, we will use these monks' sacrificial flags first, and then start the war. I wonder what the three of you think?" Divine Master Bi sneered, and actually threatened.

"Your Excellency is threatening us!" Wei Wuya said sternly with a cold light in his eyes.

"There's no threat? But if we don't want to participate in the gambling war, it's useless for us to keep these prisoners. It's not impossible to use them to sacrifice flags to boost morale!" The skinny old man's expression remained unchanged, but his voice was a bit sinister. point.

"It's okay if we have a bet. If these prisoners are released first, we will agree to a bet!" Master Zhi Yang heard this, and after twitching his eyebrows a few times, he said slowly.

"Let go? Do you think we will do such a stupid thing?" Bi said rudely.

"But we can't trust you either! What if you don't keep your promise if the betting battle is over?" Wei Wuya said indifferently.

"Even so, we..."

"Okay, no need to say these useless words. Before the battle, we can release half of the prisoners. The rest depends on whether you win or lose. You don't have any objections? If it still doesn't work, you can just go back. , let’s start the war now!” The skinny old man said before he could say anything else from the divine master named Bi, with a fierce light in his eyes.

"Okay, let's do it like this! Release the people over there, and we'll start setting up the big formation here!" This time Master Zhiyang and the other two people communicated a few words, and then decisively agreed.

This kind of condition is the maximum concession that the other party can give. If they really negotiate the matter, they will not be able to explain it to the monks behind them. After negotiating the conditions, the six great monks in the late Nascent Soul stage also returned to their camps. Arrangements were made.

Some of the captives who were pushed out of Tiannan were released from the restraints on their bodies by the Mulan people, and then flew to the opposite side full of surprise.

Wei Wuya and the others had obviously made arrangements for this. Before they could wait for the captured Tiannan monks to fly into the army, hundreds of monks came out to greet them. They carefully inspected the rescued monks to confirm that there were no spies inside. , and only after no hands or feet were used on their bodies, they were allowed to enter the rear of the camp with confidence.

"These guys in Tiannan are really careful!" Master Bi saw this scene from a distance and snorted unwillingly. They had really planned to plant spies among the prisoners.

When the skinny old man heard this, his face showed no expression at all. He just touched his few goatees and looked at the army of monks opposite, his figure motionless.

"Fairy Luo, I'll leave it to you for the next big formation!" Wei Wuya and the others returned to the rear and solemnly spoke to Luo Ningxin.
