Chapter 267 Empress Duanmu became a martial saint (please subscribe)

On the vast plains.

Rumble!

The two teams, numbering tens of thousands of people, were fighting fiercely together.

Along with the shouts of killing, the billowing blood kept rising, almost dyeing the entire land red.

If a Dharma cultivator's soul leaves the body, he can see large groups of blood rolling over the battlefield, as if forming blood clouds!

This is the result of the concentration of evil spirit and murderous intent to the extreme.

Ordinary Dharma practitioners can't even get out of their bodies in such a battlefield!

Even if you are out of your body, you may be shaken by the shouts of death around you, and you may lose your mind.

Therefore, Fa Xiu is rarely seen on the battlefield.

The current war is not considered large-scale, it seems to be just a test between each other!

"Tuoba Lie, suffer death!"

A burly general wearing armor, more than two meters tall, holding a double axe, led the way, like a humanoid beast, cutting down the surrounding Turkic and Simon soldiers to the ground, and rushed forward, wearing hats and riding horses. A general with a bloody horse.

This horse's whole body exudes a kind of precious light, as bright as jade, and its body is one foot long, like a giant lion.

This is a Turkic specialty horse named Zhaoye Jade Lion!

It is not an ordinary beast, but a demonic beast. When it grows up, its strength can even be comparable to that of ordinary Grandmaster realm warriors.

When the Zhaoye Jade Lion saw the burly general rushing over, he roared, raised his front hooves suddenly, and stepped towards the general!

Its horse's hooves were like two javelins, making the air crackle with explosions!

but.

The general was happy and undaunted, and his blood boiled all over his body. He turned into a tiger and pounced on the Zhaoye Jade Lion.

The Jade Lion of Zhaoye neighed, and was frightened by the tiger, falling to the ground.

Sitting on the jade lion in Zhaoye, the Turkic general named Tuoba Lie snorted coldly, holding a machete, and fought with the generals of Daqian.

Both of them are master-level warriors, and they create violent energy and hurricanes.

The ax and machete collided, sending out dazzling sparks!

Every time there is a collision, the ground will collapse, and smoke and dust will completely spread.

Seeing the two of them fighting inextricably.

Tuoba Lie suddenly flipped his wrist, and a huge soul-calling flag suddenly flew out and hung in the air.

woohoo-

Gusts of dark wind suddenly blew out of the soul-calling flag, making people shudder.

Endless blood and whispers that seemed to come from the Nine Netherworld surged out along with waves of evil energy, covering the battlefield for miles around.

next moment.

The souls of all the soldiers suddenly moved, flying out of their bodies and flying towards the soul-calling flags in mid-air.

The soldier's body was stiff on the ground, making no sound.

Tuoba Lie sneered:

"Dianyuan, today is your death day!"

When the general named Dian Yuan saw this, his expression changed slightly:

"This is the divine weapon..."

Only divine weapons can possess such strange power.

Dian Yuan only felt that his soul was violently shaken. Although it was not sucked away like other soldiers, it still made him feel dizzy.

He roared angrily, braced himself, his blood boiled, and the ax in his hand slammed towards the soul-calling flag in mid-air!

Tuoba Lie snorted coldly, and immediately activated the divine weapon's soul summoning flag. The red light flashed, and Dian Yuan's ax was fixed in mid-air.

Followed by.

The machete in his hand set off a fierce wind, as if it was going to split the air in half, and hit Dianyuan directly!

Dianyuan's weapon was imprisoned by the divine weapon Soul-Calling Flag, and he himself was affected by the Soul-Calling Flag, which greatly reduced his strength.

He could only barely raise the other ax in his hand, and suddenly faced it.

Bang!

A violent explosion resounded loudly.

Dian Yuan was directly slashed and flew dozens of meters away, his armor was cut open by the sword, and a large gash was opened in his chest, with bones visible and blood gushing out crazily.

The bonus of the divine weapon to the master level is really too great.

It can almost directly affect the outcome!

"Haha, Dian Yuan, suffer death!"

Tuoba Lie gave a ferocious laugh, held the machete in his hand, moved his body, and slashed at Dian Yuan again!

Seeing Dian Yuan lying on the ground, unable to resist, he was about to be killed with a knife!

Zheng!

A sound like a dragon's roar resounded in the sky.

next moment.

The black light that covered the sky and the sun instantly shrouded the battlefield, making people feel as if they had suddenly fallen into darkness.

The blazing blade, like a strong wind, filled the space between heaven and earth!

then.

A divine dragon with purple thunder all over its body descended from the sky and struck the Soul-Calling Pan.

Almost instantly.

stab-

The soul-calling flag made a sound like tearing silk, and a hole was torn in the middle.

Wave after wave of souls surged out from it like a tide, and most of them returned to the bodies of each soldier.

After tearing apart the summoning banner.

The divine dragon, surrounded by purple thunder, continued to charge towards Tuoba Lie unabated.

This divine dragon was so fast that it arrived in front of Tuoba Lie almost instantly, and then appeared like a decapitation knife with dragon patterns all over the blade and a dragon head on the handle!

This beheading knife is extremely special. There is something that looks like a shape on the blade, which is controlling the trajectory and movement of the beheading knife.

It was as if the decapitating knife had become conscious.

"Ah, the divine weapon!"

Tuoba Lie roared wildly.

He wanted to make a move of resistance.

However, this decapitation sword magic weapon is so oppressive that it can almost surpass any great master who has exchanged blood seven times.

In fact, it is not on the same level as his divine weapon soul summoning flag.

He couldn't figure out why there were such powerful magic weapons in this world!

But, he couldn't think about it anymore.

When the decapitating knife approached him, the decapitating knife destroyed his defensive spirit treasure that automatically protected him, and then decapitated him with one strike!

The high head flew away, and blood spurted out from the neck like a column of blood.

"Tuoba Takhan (a general with outstanding military achievements in the Turks) is dead, run away!"

The Turkic soldiers on the side saw their leader beheaded with a knife, and their momentum suddenly weakened.

Followed by.

He actually threw away his helmet and armor, was so frightened that he fled away, and was completely defeated.

This pure black beheading knife covered with dragon patterns flew out automatically, frantically harvesting the lives of the fleeing Turks and Simon's soldiers!

Countless souls were incorporated into the blade of the decapitating knife, causing the pure black blade to shine with scarlet light.

"return."

A calm voice resounded.

This beheading knife seemed to really understand. The blade shook, and it flew directly into the sky with the broken divine weapon soul summoning flag wrapped around it!

Everyone looked up in the direction where the decapitating knife left, and saw a man and a woman descending from the sky in a flying boat, like immortals from the sky.

The beheading knife was in the hands of the man on the flying boat.

The summoning flag was put away by the man.

Not long after.

The flying boat landed and stopped beside Dian Yuan.

A large space was unconsciously vacated around him, and no one dared to approach.

It was as if the place where the flying boat was was a forbidden area.

Daqian general Dian Yuan also came to his senses at this moment, stood up immediately, looked at Li Xuan on the flying boat, cupped his hands and said:

"Thanks for the help."

There was a pause.

He did not speak directly, but said via voice:

"May I ask, are you Li Xuan?"

Li Xuan's eyes flashed, but he did not deny his identity:

"you know me?"

Dian Yuan continued to transmit the message:

"Of course, the imperial court printed a lot of your portraits and distributed them to various places. I think as long as you are an official in the imperial court or a member of the army, no one will know you."

Li Xuanpi said with a smile:

"Haha, I didn't expect that Yang Guan and Queen Mother Xia are quite persistent towards me. What is your attitude towards me?"

Dian Yuan immediately sent a message:

"We who serve in the military only want to guard the border and don't want to pay too much attention to the grievances between the court and the court. I also understand that Brother Li and the emperor are facing each other, but the two sides have different positions. Naturally, I have no objection to you. Besides, , you also saved my life. If it weren't for you this time, we would have suffered heavy losses in this war. I should entertain you well, both rationally and emotionally." "It's just that you are a member of the imperial court after all. Criminal, I can’t reveal your identity, it’s fine as long as everyone knows it.”

Li Xuan said calmly: "It doesn't matter. I came here just to do something. I wonder if Brother Dian can help me?"

Dian Yuan was very forthright: "Whatever Brother Li wants me to do, as long as it doesn't violate my principles, I can do it myself."

Li Xuan pointed to Empress Zhao on the side and said, "This is Zhao Feilong, the daughter of Marquis Zhao, Zhao Ying. She wants to bury Marquis Zhao's ashes here. I wonder if Brother Dian can help?"

Dianyuan's eyes suddenly condensed, he looked at Empress Zhao, he clasped his fists in fear and said:

"She turned out to be Marshal Zhao's daughter. I'm a villain but I don't recognize Mount Tai. Please forgive me."

It can be seen that Zhao Feilong's status in the army is still very high.

After all, Dian Yuan was neither humble nor arrogant towards the most powerful person in the world like Li Xuan.

When he heard that Empress Zhao was Zhao Feilong's daughter, her attitude immediately became respectful.

The person he was respectful to was naturally not Empress Zhao, but Empress Zhao’s father.

Empress Zhao pursed her red lips and said, "General Dian, I wonder if I can bury my father's ashes in the army?"

Dian Yuan immediately said: "Of course, the Marshal did a great job guarding the border back then. It's a pity that he was killed by a traitor. We tried to rescue him at first, but were strictly prohibited by the Marshal. He would rather die generously than watch. With the turmoil at the border, it is a great honor for us that the Marshal's ashes can now be buried in the military camp."

There was a pause.

He continued: "You two, when this war is over, why don't you follow me back to the camp and meet Marshal Ni?"

"Okay." Li Xuan nodded.

He also wanted to take a look at Ni Yuanan's attitude towards Yang Guan.

and.

This time, Li Xuan planned to go to Simon Country to help Empress Duanmu seize the throne, and he also needed to understand the situation in the Western Regions first.

Ni Yuanan has been guarding the border for many years, and no one understands the current situation in the Western Region better than him.

After Tuoba Lie was killed by Li Xuan.

The outcome of this battle has actually been decided.

All that's left is to clear away the miscellaneous soldiers and clean the battlefield.

Less than an hour.

This small and medium-sized war has come to an end.

All that's left is to count the battle achievements, number of people, etc.

Dianyuan made some arrangements, then took Li Xuan and the others straight to the military camp.

Not long after.

Li Xuan and Empress Zhao arrived in front of a military camp that occupied an extremely large area.

The military camp has a post every three steps and a sentry every five steps.

Flags were flying, and the sound of soldiers training was loud, giving off an atmosphere of desperation.

The continuous bastions and turrets are like a long dragon, stretching for hundreds of miles.

A cart and horses, loaded with vegetables, meat, elixirs and other things, entered the military camp.

Being able to manage such a large military camp in an orderly manner, the current marshal of the military camp is also a man of great ability.

Not long after.

Li Xuan and Zhao Niangniang followed Dian Yuan to a bastion in the center of the military camp.

"You two, wait a moment, I will go in and call the marshal." Dian Yuan said.

Li Xuan nodded slightly.

Dianyuan passed through the rows of sentries and quickly entered the bastion.

Not long after.

He walked out quickly: "Marshal invites you."

Li Xuan then followed him and walked slowly towards the bastion.

soon.

Li Xuan stepped into the bastion and saw a figure standing in front of a large map.

This figure is tall, wearing black armor, and has a beard, which makes him look very rugged.

However, his eyes were bright and shining.

obviously.

This is a rough and tumble person.

Needless to say, this person is the marshal who guards the border of the Western Region, Ni Yuanan.

Ni Yuanan looked at Li Xuan and Empress Zhao, and said: "Brother Li, I have admired your name for a long time, but I didn't expect you to be so young. It is true that a hero comes from a young age. I admire you."

"Excuse me." Li Xuan said lightly.

Ni Yuanan laughed and looked at Empress Zhao on the side: "Little girl Zhao, when I first met you, you were only one or two years old. I didn't expect you to be so old in a blink of an eye. Hey, time is not forgiving, wait. , I will arrange for someone to help Lao Zhao build a big tombstone."

Empress Zhao bowed politely: "Thank you very much, Uncle Ni."

Seeing that Ni Yuanan was so happy, Li Xuan didn't say more about Empress Zhao and asked the question he was concerned about:

"Marshal Ni, how's the fighting going on at the border now?"

Ni Yuanan sighed: "The war that Dian Yuan experienced just now was the third time this month. The Western Region is currently unstable and there are many border wars."

"What is the current situation in the Western Regions? Can Marshal Ni elaborate?" Li Xuan couldn't help but ask.

Ni Yuanan said: "It's very simple. Since Fan Ji, the leader of the Brahma Sect of the Simon Kingdom, left the border two months ago, he has united many countries in the Western Regions to attack the border passes. Therefore, the border passes now have to be attacked by the combined armies of the Western Regions from time to time. attack."

Li Xuan's eyes flashed slightly when he heard this.

No wonder he just saw the troops of Turk and Simon united together.

"This Brahma Ji has the ability to unite so many countries in the Western Region. Could it be that he has broken through to the limit-breaking realm?" Li Xuan couldn't help but ask.

Ni Yuanan shook his head: "Probably not, but his strength has definitely improved. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the number one in the Western Region."

Li Xuan said: "Speaking of which, I am planning to go to the Western Regions. Can Marshal Ni give me a map of the Western Regions?"

Ni Yuanan said: "Of course this is no problem, I just have a spare here."

With a flick of his wrist, he took out a map from the mustard stone and handed it to Li Xuan.

Li Xuan looked at it and found that the locations of the countries in the Western Region, various forces, etc. were marked on it in great detail.

"Thank you. In that case, I won't stay any longer."

Li Xuan looked at Empress Zhao on the side: "Empress, I still have things to deal with, so I'm going to leave first. I'll come back to you when I'm done."

He didn't plan to ask any more questions. The rest could be learned after he met Empress Duanmu.

Empress Zhao nodded: "Well, be careful."

Ni Yuanan said: "Brother Li, walk slowly. Don't worry. I, Lao Ni, will only guard the border. I won't pay too much attention to other matters."

This can be regarded as an indirect statement to Li Xuan that he will not support Yang Guan.

"Well, farewell."

Li Xuan stepped out of the military camp, and then, under the watch of Empress Zhao and others, he rose into the air and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

……

three days later.

Li Xuan fell onto the top of a mountain peak.

This mountain peak is located in the Kingdom of Simon. It looks like a goshawk and is also called Eagle Mountain.

Li Xuan sat cross-legged on the edge of the cliff and waited patiently.

About an hour later.

Two graceful female figures fell from the sky and landed in front of Li Xuan.

"Xiao Xuanzi, I kept you waiting for a long time." One of the women said.

She has an oval face, a high nose bridge, deep facial features, and a coldness in her green eyes.

It is Empress Duanmu.

Beside her, there was an equally beautiful woman, Shi Yu.

Li Xuan said: "It didn't take long. Speaking of which, I want to congratulate you for becoming a martial saint."
