Chronicles of Celestial Origins

The Mubei Allied Forces pursued the rear, and many high-level monster clans harassed them from both sides. The Xuanmen people retreated while fighting, and fought outside the city walls until they met up with most of the Seventh Army. A big battle broke out between the two sides outside the city walls. .

This battle lasted from midday to the dawn of the next day, and both sides suffered heavy casualties.

Xuanmen had been withdrawing thousands of miles from the city wall, and then the Mubei coalition stopped their pursuit.

Tangning was lying on the deck of the warship, her body covered in blood and flesh, most of her body was dented, her right arm and left leg were missing, and half of her cheek was missing. She looked very horrifying.

But his consciousness has completely fallen into coma, the spiritual power in his body has been exhausted, and his whole life is like a thread, and he is dying.

The reason for this was that Gein was affected by the self-destruction of a fifth-level demonic beast and demonic elixir. At that time, the entire Xuanmen had withdrawn from the city walls. Because the warships had run out of shells, the Mubei demonic beast army was entangled, and everyone had no choice but to go out to meet the enemy. .

At that time, he was fighting with a third-level demonic beast. Unexpectedly, a seriously injured fifth-level demonic beast pounced on a high-level monk near the warship and resolutely exploded the demonic elixir.

Tang Ning was affected by this and was seriously injured. At that time, he was still conscious, and the green spiritual power surged in his body. He healed his injuries and fled to another warship.

However, the shock wave caused by the demon pill penetrated his whole body and remained in his body. It rushed left and right in his body like a sword blade, beating his body over and over again.

During his previous breakout, he fought with monsters and lost a lot of his spiritual energy.

Therefore, when the green spiritual power in the body circulates to recover from injuries, it quickly dries up.

He also fell into coma.

Blood was flowing all over the deck of the warship, and many monks were lying scattered about, many of whom were injured and mutilated.

Many monks came and went and gathered the monks lying on the deck to another Tianling ship.

A man with big ears came to Tang Ning's side. He took out a red pill that was as red as blood and put it into his mouth. Then, he was wrapped in the light and left the warship.

………

The silver fox shines on the majestic thunder carriage. Duan Zhenyu, commander of the Fourth Army, has eyes like lightning, his face is pale, his hair is messy, flying in the wind, and his body is covered with scarlet blood. He stands proudly on the bow of the ship, like a murderous god.

Two rays of light shot out from a distance, and two men appeared. They bowed and said in salute: "Uncle Duan, Uncle Jiang, please go to the warship of our headquarters to speak."

Duan Zhenyu nodded slightly and took a step forward. He suddenly disappeared and soon appeared on the deck of the seventh legion's thunder boat.

"Junior Brother Duan, are you okay with your injuries?" Jiang Daode led a group of senior officials from the Seventh Army to him and said in awe.

Duan Zhenyu returned the greeting: "It's a minor injury, nothing serious, I'll just rest for a few days. Thank you to Senior Brother Jiang for your timely help, otherwise I wouldn't have suffered at the hands of the evil demon today."

Jiang Daode smiled and said: "With Junior Brother Duan's ability, if you want to escape from the hands of these rats, you can only take a stroll! If you don't take care of the people in your army, you can come when you want and leave when you want. Who can stop you?"

"Senior Brother Jiang Miao Zan, don't people know it? There are many masters among the demons in Mubei. There is no place where you can come and go wherever you want. If you hadn't taken action in time this time, you could have restrained the high-level demons. Monk, I'm afraid my head is in a different place now."

"We haven't seen each other for so many years, and Junior Brother Duan is still as humble as ever! Your abilities are praised by Senior Uncle Ren. This time Mubei Demon led four legions to besiege Cangyun Island, and so far only your troops have broken out."

"I feel ashamed to say that I have suffered heavy casualties. I really have no shame in returning to life. I feel ashamed of the great trust I have placed in my sect. After I return, I will apologize to Master Ren in person."

"This matter is not your fault. If I want to let my uncle know the truth, I will not punish you."

The two chatted for a while, and then Jiang Daode turned to the topic: "Junior Brother Duan, how many troops under your command broke out? What is the current situation on the island?"

Duan Zhenyu replied: "There are six columns of the Fourth, Fifth and Fourteenth Legions stationed on this island, totaling twenty-six columns. We are divided into four walls for defense, and six columns are organized on each wall. strength, and the other two columns are distributed on the last two lines of defense to support the retreating teams and defend the main formation. "

"During the previous battle to guard the city wall, due to the fierce attack of the demons, I transferred the capable disciples from the southern city wall to rush into the formation and kill many high-level Mubei demons that broke through the formation."

"Although the offensive of Mubei's third army was alleviated, Mubei's second army was overwhelming and quickly broke through the large formation on the southern city wall. So I mobilized two more columns to support. As a result, there were only four troops left in the headquarters. Just column.”

"During the retreat, many teams were separated or killed by demons. Although the ones who finally broke through with me were still organized in four columns, their actual strength was only about two columns."

"In this breakout battle, Mubei demons chased and intercepted us. Two-thirds of our warships were destroyed and more than half of our personnel were injured. The number of casualties has not been reported yet, but I think the casualties must be quite large. Maybe they will be even higher than I expected." bigger."

"Of course, the Mubei Third Army's casualties are not few, but they are certainly not as big as ours."

Duan Zhenyu said this and sighed slightly: "It is my fault that the casualties in our headquarters are so large. I will apologize to the sect when I go back."

Jiang Daode comforted: "The terrain of this island is small and not suitable for us to set up defenses. In addition, there are many monsters and monsters, and you have few soldiers. It's just ordinary for anyone to come here. Junior brother Duan doesn't need to blame himself. What's the situation with the other three teams?" , do you know?”

Duan Zhenyu said: "We have a sound transmission array inside the defense line to pass messages to each other. Before the headquarters broke through, the other three defense lines had not been breached. These three areas are the most critical for the team led by Liu Daoyou of the headquarters."

"The Mubei Third Army and the Second Army have joined forces and have gathered many high-level demons. They are breaking the formation. Before we broke through, the Hunyuan Yiqi Bagua array they deployed had been occupied by demons in five positions."

"Liu Daoyou led his men into the battle and charged several times, but they all retreated in defeat. I guess the situation is not good."

Jiang Daode muttered: "If the formation is broken, the team led by Liu Daoyou will be in great danger. If they are annihilated and the demons merge into one place, the other two defense lines will not be able to hold for long."

Duan Zhenyu nodded and said: "That's right, that's why I was willing to take a risk and lead my team to break through after knowing that you had arrived. Otherwise, after the demons are defeated individually, once they join forces and surround the formation, if other reinforcements have not arrived yet, then It’s really a dead end.”

Jiang Daode frowned and said: "The Mubei demons have assembled a legion of troops outside the city. We are so anxious that we can't rush out of the demon defense line to support them. Our headquarters has charged twice and both retreated in defeat. There are no more casualties. ”

"You have witnessed with your own eyes just now that the Mubei Demon's combat effectiveness is indeed impressive. With the same strength, it is difficult for us to win, let alone break through the numerous defenses, invade the island for tens of thousands of miles, and rescue other besieged teams."

"If this is true, not only will the other teams not be able to be rescued, I'm afraid we will also be in danger."

Duan Zhenyu said: "I also know about this section, but I don't know what senior brother Jiang has in mind? What should be the next step?"

Jiang Daode thought for a while and said: "I think fighting head-on is definitely not an option. The casualties are too high and it won't help. I have organized a group of disciples with advanced cultivation as a vanguard team to adopt a harassment strategy and raid them from time to time. To contain the demon."

"As for when to attack, I want to wait until reinforcements from other islands arrive and attack the city together. What does Junior Brother Duan think?"

Duan Zhenyu frowned slightly: "I'm afraid the team in the city can't hold on for so long. If the garrisons from other islands arrive, the island's defense line will have been breached by the demons."

Jiang Daode was silent for a while: "Let's do this! I will organize another legion attack to see if I can break through the demon's defense line or contain more of its troops."

Duan Zhenyu nodded: "Then it's Senior Brother Lao Jiang."

"Junior Brother Duan, let's rest first! Take the time to recover from your injuries and spiritual power."

"By the way, one more thing. When our headquarters broke out, they were attacked by demons and suffered many injuries. They needed a heavenly spirit ship to escort them back to the rear to recuperate."

"Okay, I will make arrangements immediately. There are many disabled monks in our headquarters during these two battles. Let them go back together to recuperate!"

Duan Zhenyu nodded, and left the thunder boat in a flash.

"Pass my order, each team will renovate immediately and launch an attack on the island at noon tomorrow. Let the eighth, ninth, and tenth columns take the lead, and the other teams will attack in sequence."

"Yes." A man took the order and left.

Not long after, the entire team moved into action, with numerous warships interspersing among the arrays, and one of the Heavenly Spirit Ships, carrying many disabled monks, quickly sailed toward the rear.

…………

When Tang Ning woke up, she found herself lying on a jade bed, her whole body feeling warm.

What comes into view is the black stone wall, surrounded by curls of cigarette smoke, and the fragrance is astounding.

Why are you here?

This thought first flashed through his mind, and then fragments of memories came one after another, accompanied by a feeling of paralysis in his body.

He was about to get up, but found that he had no energy at all and his body was extremely weak. He turned around and saw a person lying on the jade stones on both sides.

Taking a closer look, there are ten jade beds lined up in the entire room, with a man lying on each jade bed.

The entire room is about two feet wide and ten feet long. It is made of black stone walls and has three-foot-long purple candles lit at the four corners.

Except for ten jade beds, the room is empty and very clean and bright.

"You're awake." A rough voice sounded from the left.

Tang Ning turned around and saw a tall, bearded man lying on the jade bed about ten feet away on the left. His upper body was dry and covered with white plaster, and his right arm was completely swollen. Broken, the broken arm is painted with red crystals.

He was Han Qian, a direct disciple of the Fourth Regiment, Third Column, and Seventh Regiment.

"Why is it you?" Tangning blurted out and immediately realized what she was saying.

He must have been sent to this place to recuperate due to injury, but before he could speak, another voice from the right came: "What's weird about this? These are all people from our team, they are brothers in need!"

The person who spoke was tall and straight, with regular features, but he looked miserable. There was a penetrating wound the size of a bowl between his chest and abdomen, which was smeared with purple powder. His left leg was broken at the wrist, and was smeared with red crystals. His eyes were closed, and his chin A piece was missing, revealing white bones wrapped in black forged cloth.

He is Yuan Ye, a direct disciple of the Fourth Army, Third Column, and Seventh Regiment.

"You say this is suffering. Maybe others will envy you! At least you saved your life."

"That's true. At least my life has been saved for the time being."

Several people spoke one after another, and Tangning realized that everyone here was a direct disciple of the Fourth Legion, the Third Column, and the Seventh Regiment. Their bodies were all injured and basically disabled, and his own injuries were no less serious than the others. .

The left leg and right arm are missing, covered with red crystals. The body is widely sunken from the chest, covered with white plaster, and half of the cheek is missing. It is wrapped in black forged cloth with purple powder rubbed inside. Everyone is naked. Naked, lying on the jade bed.

"Fellow Taoists, don't you know where this is?"

Han Qian replied: "This is Seven Star Island. We were all injured and sent here to recuperate."

Seven Star Island is already an island relatively close to the interior. For the frontline legions, it can be regarded as the rear area.

"How many days have I been in coma?"

"As far as I know, you have been lying here for almost a month. As for when you fell into coma, we don't know. You can calculate the date by yourself. It is also considered that you are blessed and can still wake up. There are people here who are still in a coma, I wonder if they can wake up?" Yuan Ye said.

Tangning followed his gaze and saw a man lying on the jade bed. His breath was weak, and most of his body was wrapped in black forged cloth. It seemed that he was seriously injured: "Which fellow Taoist is this?"

"Fang Yuanliang, who is directly under our third team, is the most seriously injured here. Not only his body has been severely damaged, but his consciousness has also been severely damaged. Whether he can wake up is still uncertain. There is no way he will lie like this for the rest of his life, like a living dead."

"A person like him should go back to the sect. What's the use of staying here? There is no good cure method, but it's just a waste of time. If the Mubei demon attacks, who can control him."

"To put it lightly, Fellow Daoist Fang is a disciple of the Tianxing Sect. He is located in the jurisdiction of Pingyuan County. He is hundreds of millions of miles away. Send him back!"

"The senior officials of the Tianxing Sect are all bastards. The disciples of the sect are so injured that they don't know how to send someone to take a look and send him back. How can a sect with such a dignified personality still not be able to squeeze out a warship? I have to stay here and suffer. In the final analysis, I just don’t pay attention to it.”

"Why did the Tianxing Sect get into trouble with you again? What does it have to do with you? If the senior officials of the Tianxing Sect heard about it, they would cause some trouble for you."

"Huang Daoyou, you don't understand what Xu Daoyou means. He is not complaining about Tianxing Sect. He wants to go back to the sect to recuperate. This is referring to Sang scolding Huai!"

"I didn't say that."

"But that's what you mean, it doesn't matter. Junior Brother Xu, don't talk about you anymore. I just want to curse a few words! We are all bleeding and injured for the sect, and we risk our lives for the sake of not being a sect." Now that he is injured, if he just leaves us here and ignores them, can the Canglang Sect not even send a warship? The Tianxing Sect is far away, but we are in Donglai County. What the sect is doing is chilling!”

"Who says it's not? Who doesn't want to go back to the sect? If we are like this, if the Mubei demon really comes to attack us, we will just have to wait to die."

Several people said one word at a time.
