Chapter 5: Both jade burning

March 19569, Ertinoli, Japan Kunlun Mountain

After losing his first battle with Hua Tianxie, Meilin and Hai Jiaxuan retreated to the abdomen of the mountain, closer to the second front at the Immortal Tree.

Hai Jiaxuan was defeated by the Destroyed Divine Art, and his essence was lost in large quantities, his expression was listless, and he didn't even have the strength to raise a little finger. He relied on Mei Lin's help to push the uterus and blood to recover his movements, but his hands were still sore and his feet were weak and he could not fight with others. It was estimated that it would be impossible to recover his combat power without more than ten days of rest.

Fortunately, Kublai Khan failed to plagiarize, and the magical art of extinction is essentially different from the magical art of heaven and demon art. If the internal energy is absorbed by the magical art of heaven and demon art, it will not be possible to recover after ten days of rest.

Just being frustrated in the hands of the younger generation, Hai Jiaxuan naturally would not be in a good mood, but it would not really cause trouble. He simply smiled and drove away this unpleasant mood.

You seem to be more open-minded than before?

As a person, you have to look forward. If you don’t look at it a little, you won’t be able to do it. If you lose to the younger generation, you have to draw your sword and commit suicide. It will be difficult for me to live in the future.

There was a hint of bitterness in Hai Jiaxuan's faint smile.

Although he has always occupied the throne of the world's most powerful man in the past two thousand years, he still has to face the wave of generational alternation, especially when one younger generation after another breaks through the wall of the heavenly throne that he has not been able to advance for two thousand years and climbs to the highest level of the Zhai Tiantai one by one. In Hai Jiaxuan's eyes, he is really sad.

However, Hua Tianxie is an exception. If he is based on his original qualifications and abilities, it is already the limit to reaching the strong heavenly level, and it is impossible to have the opportunity to enter the Zhai Tiantai level.

Meilin, who was always watching the battle coldly, was particularly touched by this, especially since Hua Tian Xie could use the magical power of extinction to such a state, even if the founder Kublai Khan was reborn, it might not be the case.

Such understanding and breakthrough, compared with Hua Tianxie in the past, is simply a miracle.

The one who created this miracle was undoubtedly Shiro Amakusa. This is well-known on the Fengzhi Continent, but there are unknown details behind it.

If you just pass on the power, you cannot reach this level. The souls of the two people must be surprisingly consistent, so you can fully inherit the understanding and cultivation of Amacao.

Meilin's words resonated with Hai Jiaxuan.

Siro Amakusa's arrogant personality, lifelong encounters, and wandering emotions are similar to Hua Tianxie. Therefore, Siro Amakusa's green eyes were particularly beautiful when he was alive and formed a friend of his age. Later, it must be the regrets and emotions of these two people that the overlapping of the feelings of these two people. Only then can Hua Tianxie perfectly absorb the things inherited by Siro Amakusa and produce the breakthrough today.

Well, as you said, the two people's persistence is very similar, emotionally... they may never be satisfied.

Hai Jiaxuan once heard Mei Lin mention Hua Tianxie's persistence in love with her life. When she thinks about it carefully, this is the most similar to Shiro Amakusa, and it can even be said to be overlapping. When the common regrets and persistence of the two lives are combined in the same soul, today's Hua Tianxie was born.

The closed disciples Shiro Amakusa educated with his life should be surpassing me, but this situation will not last for too long. The wall of the Heavenly Status must be unbreakable. He is just one step ahead of me.

Hai Jiaxuan's tone was full of confidence, and this confident expression appeared on a child's face, making Meilin smile and laugh.

Unfortunately, it is a pity that such talents cannot be used by the human camp, but have become hawks and dogs invaded by the demons. This is really a pity.

Compared to losing to a junior, this incident undoubtedly made Hai Jiaxuan even more regretful. Not only did he sigh that outstanding talents like Hua Tianxie were cast into the demon clan, but he also felt sorry for none of the disciples he cultivated could come in handy at this time.

The seven disciples of Lu You who were famous all over the world on that day did not count if Hai Jiaxuan himself was deducted. Wang Youjun and Quan Ying each took control of one side. Although they could still play a role in protecting the country and protecting the people, they were unable to affect the overall situation and were not strong enough to pose a threat to the demons.

Li Yu and Zhou Gongjin, who are the most powerful in martial arts, have already died in the battle with the demons. If one of them is still there, I don’t know how much help it will be to the current situation; but whether it is the Kunlun Mountain Front or the Jixia Front, it will definitely relieve a lot of pressure.

After the war in Zhongdu ended, Tao Yaning disappeared, and there was no news again. It seemed that she had no intention of participating in the battle between humans and demons. Hai Jiaxuan was not surprised because in his opinion, Yaning was wild and unruly and had no good impression of humans. There was no reason to fight on the side of humans. As long as she did not change to join the demon camp, she would be thankful.

But the most unexpected change was Hulagu.

He wasted his past and regarded him very deeply, thinking that he was both literary and martial, and was an excellent talent who was rare once a thousand years. He did not expect that he knew people but not his heart. His cultivation became the best evidence that he had no eyes. He did not see his true face, which made him suffer from raising a tiger.

Now he is the second person in the demon camp and a major concern in the human camp, all of which are his own fault.

In order to deal with the invasion of the demons, the personal disciples he cultivated for thousands of years are now dead, scattered, and rebellious. Otherwise, they are not useful. Seeing that the demons are coming in full force and the destruction of the human camp is right in front of him, Hai Jiaxuan was worried and sighed.

Then...we should have made a decision, right?

Feeling Hua Tianxiezheng approaching the highway here, Meilin woke up this point.

Even when facing the warriors of Zhai Tian, ​​they were not helpless. After all, there was a Hulagu among the enemy, and he might have attacked Kunlun Mountain. So they had made many arrangements before. When warriors of Zhai Tian Tian came, they could fight with these arrangements and tactics.

In fact, on the way to retreat here, Meilin had already activated some magic facilities to block Hua Tianxie from advancing, so he had not arrived for a long time.

Hai Jiaxuan was severely damaged by the magical power of extinction and could not fight for a while. This was an unexpected situation. However, he considered that someone would not lose control because he was too seriously injured.

So, the question now is whether to continue fighting?

Originally, when Hai Jiaxuan and Mei Lin first entered, they were determined to defend Kunlun Mountain with all their might and would never allow the demons to obtain the immortal tree. However, after Tianyuan Goro came that time, he put forward an opinion after observing the immortal tree, which gave the two people the room to retreat.

When it can still support it, it continues to fight against the demons, so that the demons can disperse their troops. However, when the real enemy comes, for example, when Yinzhen personally attacks Kunlun Mountain, there is no need to defend here, give up Kunlun Mountain, and concentrate human combat power in Jixia.

The combat power and wisdom of you two are very precious to all mankind, please do not underestimate yourself.Keeping a useful body is the most important thing. Never give your life to meaningless things.

Gengoro's expression was very serious at the time, and it could even be said to be a low-profile plea. In addition to strategic considerations, he was more unwilling to see his friends splashing blood on the battlefield and want to save them.

Gengoro's worried expression made Hai Jiaxuan and Meilin remember it deeply.

Xiaowu is actually a good person...

Hey, he's been like this since he used to be, not like a man...

Hai Jiaxuan laughed twice, and when he looked up at Meilin, Meilin knew that he had made a decision from the information leaked from his eyes.

Just give this to the demons.I want to bet on Amakusa Shiro's heir once to see what the result will be in this bet.

Hai Jiaxuan's decision was approved by Meilin. When Hua Tianxie finally broke here a quarter of an hour later, he could no longer find Hai Jiaxuan and Meilin.

Well, am I a step slower?

Hua Tianxie sensed that the boy and girl had left here, and even left Kunlun Mountain.

Although there is only one road from the underground lake to the Immortal Tree, as long as they use the magic of time and space transfer, they can jump and appear anywhere within hundreds of miles of Kunlun Mountain, and cooperate with their footwork. At this time, they have long known where to go and they can't catch up.

What a pity, but... well, if this battle turns into a death battle, it will be unpleasant.

Before Hua Tianxie sneaked into Kunlun Mountain, he had already planned to splash blood. He did not come for temptation. Since he entered Kunlun Mountain, whether he fell down or the enemy fell, the battle would end with a complete failure or victory. Now the enemy takes the initiative to retreat. Although this is unexpected, it is also the best ending. The next thing is to accept the Immortal Tree.

Reducing his fighting spirit and murderous aura, Hua Tianxie slowly walked towards the end of the walkway. He was also curious about the divine objects that the Queen Mother of the West had vowed to protect for thousands of years. Without waiting to inform Shi Chong and others, he explored the end of the walkway first.

From Dorgon's mouth, Hua Tianxie had heard several rumors about the Immortal Tree. It is said that the Immortal Tree is a divine object left by the Creator God during the period when the Creation World was created. It is protected by the Queen Mother of the West. It blooms every three thousand years and bears fruit every three thousand years. It takes another three thousand years to refine the fruit into medicine. Its magical medicine raises dead people, flesh and bones, and has the miraculous effect of reversing life and death. However, in several battles thousands of years ago, the Queen Mother of the West consumed all the magical medicines. Now, it is a matter of more than three thousand years later. It is really a myth...

More than three thousand years later... Haha, people nowadays don't know how many people can have the fate to see.

When Hua Tianxie sneered and stepped into the cave at the end of the walkway, he saw that it was a circular cave with a hole in the top rock wall. The clear sky was shining in from above and landing on an ancient tree in the center of the cave. In the faint white halo, the withered trees with mixed roots told the silent history and the changes of time.

The tree is only more than two feet high. Judging from its appearance alone, it is hard to imagine that it is the world-famous immortal tree. The bark is shriveled and leaves are without leaves. It seems that it has long lost its life. If it weren't for the vague pulse of energy, Hua Tianxie would not have believed that this was his goal.

The fruits that should not exist on the branches are expected. Since it is already the year of flowering and fruiting, the people in front must have picked the fruits. If they were not taken away by the Queen Mother of the West when they retreated, they would have fallen into Hai Jiaxuan's hands.

After occupying Kunlun Mountain for so many days, the immortal tree itself cannot be moved, but I am not so naive that I think the enemy will even stay with the immortal tree fruit.

However, when Hua Tianxie slowly walked to the Immortal Tree, he wanted to take a closer look at the strange tree that the demon clan was determined to win. The slight energy fluctuation captured by Tianxin's consciousness made his face change suddenly, and he immediately withdrew more than ten feet away, and used a cautious look to confirm the surrounding state again.

After a while, a loud laugh resounded in Kunlun Mountain, circling and shaking for a long time.

Hahahaha~~ It turns out that ginger is so spicy, I was put on a dish of Ah~~haha~

The offensive and defensive battle in Kunlun Mountain finally came to an unexpected end. When Hua Tianxie walked out of Kunlun Mountain, indicating that the enemy had retreated and the Immortal Tree had fallen into his own control, Shi Chong was happy.

Hua Tianxie went to fight after recovering from injury this time, Shi Chong did not expect him to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop. After all, Hai Jiaxuan alone is already difficult to deal with, let alone Mei Lin is surging the formation. If Mei Lin's Heavenly Demonic Art, Wuji Tianshi, and Hai Jiaxuan's Qimen Dunjia are all taken into consideration, there are many variables, and even if Hua Tianxie has the power of Zhai Tiantai, he may not be sure to win.

The ideal situation is to wait for Dorgon to return, join forces with Hua Tianxie, and cooperate with his own planning, then Kunlun Mountain will definitely be broken. However, before that, let Hua Tianxie enter the mountain to see the environment and try the enemy's strength. This will also be helpful. With his martial arts at this moment, he can escape unsuccessfully even if he cannot win. This is Shi Chong's original idea, but he did not know that Hua Tianxie was brave enough to take down Kunlun Mountain in just one battle.

In contrast, although Xulagu used his troops quickly, his front line was still far away from Jixia City, not to mention the difficulty of actually attacking Jixia. However, his side captured Kunlun Mountain at this time and obtained the Immortal Tree. At that time, in front of His Majesty Yinzhen's imperial court, he would undoubtedly win this competition.

Yeah?It seems that it is too early for Lord Shi Chong to be happy. It is just that he has obtained the immortal tree. There are still many problems in the future, and it is not yet time to be satisfied.

Hua Tianxie's words mean something else. Shi Chong noticed this and hurriedly led his people into Kunlun Mountain to confirm the condition of the Immortal Tree.

That night, an emergency military document from Japan was passed to Yinzhen in Zhongdu, indicating that he had captured Kunlun Mountain and obtained the Immortal Tree, but the enemy was very cunning and actually laid a large-scale barrier around the Immortal Tree in advance.

It was really a huge barrier of great scale, made of 9,999 small and medium-sized barriers with different fronts and reverses. The machine was hidden inside and changed externally. Even Shi Chong was stunned. He did not expect that the enemy occupied Kunlun Mountain for many days and actually used his time to set up such complex barriers.

Unlike ordinary defensive barriers, this barrier will not block or attack the invading foreign enemies. After all, warriors who can break through Hai Jiaxuan and Mei Lin must have a cultivation level above the Zhai Tian position, and it is unlikely that there will be any mechanism in the world that can threaten it.

Given blocking and attacking, all the energy in this barrier is used to do only one thing: detonate the Immortal Tree.

No matter who comes in, as long as someone tries to touch the Immortal Tree or uses any magic to the Immortal Tree, the barrier will be activated, blowing the Immortal Tree to pieces, and everyone will burn them all and scatter them.

This vicious trick made Shi Chong stunned, because the existence of the Immortal Tree is related to the energy operation of heaven and earth. If the Immortal Tree rashly destroys the Immortal Tree, no one can predict the consequences that may be caused. No matter how light it is, it is a large-scale disaster of Japan's land sinking level. Moreover, the scope of the disaster is not limited to Japan, and it is very likely to be widespread to the Wind Continent. At that time, under the chain effect, a series of heaven and earth disasters will crazily ravage every inch of land in the Wind Continent. Based on this seriousness, Shi Chong was originally fearless and thought that the enemy would not dare to do anything to the Immortal Tree. Unexpectedly, when he captured Kunlun Mountain and obtained the Immortal Tree, the enemy would still have an extremely sharp return gun.

...It's so vicious. These guys are all under the banner of justice, but they are much more cruel than the demons.

Shi Chong then understood why Meilin and Hai Jiaxuan chose to retreat when they could still fight, and it turned out that they had left a big bomb.

In this way, the capture of Kunlun Mountain is not only not the end, but the beginning of another war.

The elite magicians from the demon camp were immediately transferred and ordered to deal with this complex barrier and do the work of dismantling the bomb.

The magic level of the demon clan is far superior to that of humans. The mage group led by Jiumoshi quickly made an assessment and it is expected that this barrier can be safely lifted within three hundred years.

A more detailed statement is that it is 298 years, seven months, three days and eight hours.

Why did it take so long?

Nearly 100,000 barriers begin to react with each other after they are formed. Every two barriers react, the entire barrier magic array will change once; dismantling this large-scale magic array is like doing a huge mathematical problem. Before the emergence of newer technologies or tools, we can only gradually solve them, not to mention that there are many techniques of Eastern immortal arts hidden here, which belong to our unknown fields, and it will take more time to dismantle them... In short, if you do it according to the regular practice, it is impossible to dismantle the barrier under the premise of absolute safety without three hundred years.

How is this possible?Does it take three hundred years for those two thieves to dismantle?

No, if the two of them do not cooperate with the team, I believe three hundred years is definitely not enough, but... we don't think that the people who set up this barrier have plans to unravel the formation.

What?

Shi Chong was just confused because of his concern. When he was able to calm down a little, he immediately understood what Jiumoshi meant.

For humans, the immortal tree is something that cannot be touched and should not be touched. No one has ever used the immortal tree in previous history, and no one needs to use it to achieve ambitions in the future.

Since this is the case, not allowing anyone to get in touch with the Immortal Tree is the most in line with the interests of all mankind. When Hai Jiaxuan and Meilin were donating the barrier, they did not think of the solution at all, because... they were not needed.

Is there no other way?In three hundred years, I don’t know how many variables will happen, this is a risk that we cannot bear!

If you follow the regular practice, three hundred years are inevitable, but in addition to the regular solution, the barrier can be automatically lifted by killing the scorpion.

The magicians of the demon clan finally came to the conclusion that the nature of this magic barrier is very obvious. As long as the caster is killed, the barrier will be automatically lifted. Therefore, instead of spending three hundred years to slowly resolve and kill the caster directly, it is undoubtedly the most time-saving approach.

Therefore, Shi Chong's expedited document was sent to Yinzhen and asked His Majesty the Demon King to make a final decision.

Well, very interesting...

When Yinzhen read the message from Shi Chong, what he noticed was not the barrier of the immortal tree, but the enemy's technique.

It is useless to block our actions with seemingly burning methods, even if we seize the immortal tree, such a beautiful and ruthless plan is not like the wisdom and style of those two people. Someone should have planned it behind the scenes, right?

His Majesty’s questions need to be answered by a personal answer, and the person in charge of this job is that Xu Laigu, who is unwilling to be recalled to Zhongdu and is currently with his father.

There is a famous military advisor in Reins' camp who has lost a lot of losses. Although he has lost a lot of losses, he is still a military advisor. Perhaps it is his idea.

When Hulagu talked about the defeated military advisor, he did not mean any insults in his tone, but instead felt a little sympathy.

He did not think that Gengoro was a mediocre person, but being in an environment where all of them were abnormal people was just a sadness for a rationally thinking staff member; judging from the records of the sect in his hand, Hulagu felt that if he had been in a different place, he would probably have to be humiliated such as the noble son who had lost his place, so he felt very sympathetic to the staff member in the enemy formation.

That man?It is possible, but the information I got at hand is Reince's main think tank at present, a secretary next to the king, named Cang Yuecao's woman.Coincidentally, this is also the same name as the current chairman of the Magic Guild. Isn’t that interesting?

Yinzhen looked at the scroll on the table and smiled slightly. For many years, he had been watching all kinds of affairs in the human world. Some inconspicuous small things can often be seen after analysis.

During the Civil War of Reins, news of the Queen's appearance was heard, and it was later explained that it was a collective hallucination, but what if it wasn't?This is indeed very tricky, but there was a saying in the past that the former Queen Reins had a talented ability to remove all magic in operation. If she had such a ability, unblocking the barrier would only be a matter of a moment.

In fact, this is not just a rumor. The time when Shi Chong was severely injured by the grass in Siam City, Yinzhen once carefully asked about the whole story and inferred the true face of the enemy.

Reince and the demons have been in opposition for a long time. Yinzhen's father, grandfather, and even the Great Demon King who had been a long time ago, had all had the experience of hostility to Reince. Yinzhen dared not take this enemy who was always at a disadvantage but seemed to never be defeated.

Well, old man, you can't say that it's unreasonable, but as we all know, Queen Leah of Reince has no children. After her death, Reince Thiren's bloodline has been cut off. Where can there be a heir who can use the Queen's Holy Power?Unless... you wouldn't think Queen Riya is not dead, do you?

Hulagu was very suspicious of this conclusion because he was also a person who valued intelligence and verification. When Queen Lia passed away, he suddenly became suspicious and secretly investigated, gathering the intelligence system of the brothel alliance and the Medici family itself. After reading more than 100 reports, he still felt inadequate. He went to Jixia to investigate and confirmed that the crystal coffin was indeed Queen Lia, and he was indeed dead. This relieved his suspicion and believed that Queen Lia died in the battle with Shiro Amakusa.

Now Yinzhen said that Queen Liya may not have died, which is really hard for him to accept.

You don’t want to believe it because this matter is too incredible?Or is it because you are unwilling to accept failure?

Yinzhen's short sentence made Xulagu silent.

This sentence undoubtedly awakened him. No matter what the truth is, there is nothing more dangerous for a wise man who relies on his brain to make a living than a preset position; letting the mind affect the brain, these things are what the wise man does not do.

So...how to find out the truth?

After the speculation is completed, we have to finally find out the truth, not to mention that Hulagu is also concerned about one problem, that is, where Hai Jiaxuan and Meilin are going.

The Immortal Tree is something that the Demons are bound to win. Now that the Demons are restrained and influenced by magic, they must snipe these two people.

Only by killing them can the barrier of the Immortal Tree be unlocked. They must be very clear about this, so instead of continuing to be hostile to the demons, the best strategy must be to find a place to hide.

The Wind Continent is a vast land with too many places to hide.

If the two of them choose to hide in Jixia and join forces with other accomplices, it would be easy to deal with. As long as they are under heavy troops, they will be able to catch turtles in a jar. But if the two of them find some hidden mountains and ordinary towns and hide silently, they really don’t know how to find them.

Use magic to divine or search?Those two people are both extremely masters of world-class magic numbers and are definitely capable of interfering with magic searches.

Use the consciousness of the heavenly heart to find it?

This is probably difficult, because even Yinzhen cannot accurately grasp their position.

The distance is unclear and the direction is unclear. Under their deliberate concealment of their cooperation with magic, Yinzhen has been unable to accurately grasp their position since they left Kunlun Mountain.

As for other intelligence exploration, Meilin and Hai Jiaxuan are both old foxes over 2,000 years old. Ordinary intelligence spies are only worthy of being teased by them at will. They should expect intelligence spies from all over the world to find them. It would be better to expect that the demons will pick the moon tomorrow.

To put it to the extreme, as long as they buy a boat ticket and set out to hide in a different continent, we only have three options left: spend three hundred years to untie the barrier, spend more than three hundred years to find people in a different continent, and wait for them to die naturally... Among the three, it seems that the first one is the most time-saving.

Hulagu shrugged: So, our goal should not be to find them, but to try to let them come out on their own initiative.

Let them come out on their own initiative?You use the word let instead of using pussy, probably because you want me to avoid strong techniques, right?

Yes, I don't like the Holocaust.It’s just about finding someone. Is it necessary to make corpses flow all over the field and blood flowing into a river?

You may not like it, but you cannot deny that this method has always been very effective.

Yinzhen's words once again made Xu Lagu silent. According to his own assessment, he killed tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people and forced Hai Jiaxuan to come forward. This was quite risky, because Hai Jiaxuan must have expected this. For the long-term future of the human world, he would definitely ignore these sacrifices that had to happen. He wanted to rely on killing to force the enemy out. This method should be very unsatisfactory for the old foxes of Hai Jiaxuan.

The question is, to what extent can Hai Jiaxuan implement this decisive will?

Everyone has a bottom line to bear. If hundreds of thousands of people are killed, what if the number is changed to millions or tens of millions?

Can Hai Jiaxuan still implement this determination? In order not to let the immortal tree fall into the hands of the demons, he would rather sacrifice tens of millions of lives?

Hulagu didn't like this method. He always only made necessary attacks in the war, only caused necessary casualties, and never wasted resources on meaningless killing. This is the common style of the children of Bailu Cave. When Gongjin was still there, he always did this.

However, in this matter, he did not think that he could gain any dominance. When Yinzhen handed over the attack to Shi Chong, a large number of killings would occur. For the traditional factions of the demon clan, human lives have never been worthwhile. Instead of ruling humans, there have always been voices in the demon clan that kill all humans and directly rule the human world.

This job doesn't seem to be suitable for you. You have always liked to go and enjoy the cool air easily. This time is no exception, right?

As if seeing through what his son was thinking, Yinzhen said: Just leave the work to Shi Chong.In the past, he has formulated several strategies and has great experience in mass murdering humans. If he handed over this work to him, he should be able to see the results in the short term.

Does this make sense?My master used to be a cold-blooded old man, but now I heard that he is a cold-blooded little devil. When he is mentally prepared, even if you kill ten million people, it will only make his cold-blooded name come true. It may not be effective, right?

If it were my old friend, it would be possible, but what about the people around him?If those who he is concerned act as a result, will he really not be affected at all?Humans are very wonderful creatures, and groups will influence each other... In short, no matter how things evolve, they will ultimately lose no way to us.

Under Yinzhen's indictment, the order to attack Jixia was conveyed to all directions. Even several corps commanded by Shi Chong began to advance towards Jixia, carrying out large-scale extermination of humans along the way, allowing the most cruel scenes in this human-demon war to begin to take place.
