Witch Wind - Chapter 344: The King of Thorns

Next, the Yaksha tribe stationed in various places and crowned kings mobilized their armies and swarmed in.

Each of them has a Tiger Guard Army with a varying number of troops, ranging from 10,000 to 20,000 to 30,000 to 50,000. They also have the Iron Wall Army to suppress the ethnic minorities in the border areas, with a number ranging from a few million to several million.

Only the hunting army, the main force for conquering the heavens, is directly under the jurisdiction of the Yaksha Palace and is only equipped in Yaksha City and Chujing.

The local garrisons and princes were unable to mobilize the hunting army, but the Tiger Guards and Iron Wall Army they gathered together were already an extremely terrifying number. Moreover, in the battles within the Yaksha world, in the eyes of these Yaksha high-level officials, the Kyushu Miao people who were restricted by heaven and earth and could not exert their combat effectiveness at all were not worth dispatching.

A brutal siege broke out.

The process was unremarkable and there was nothing much to say.

Anyway, Xing Tianli controlled the intensity of the abnormal gravity field outside the city wall and lowered the abnormal gravity multiplier, but the coverage range expanded from thirty-six miles outside the city wall to three hundred miles.

So, the elite Yaksha rushed over howling, and gradually walked slower and slower, until they were sweating profusely and standing there gasping for breath. Only a very few masters could still struggle to run forward.

Rays of high energy tore through the air.

Huge bombs shook the earth.

The advanced weapons from Maria's Mechanical Corps ravaged the battlefield, like cutting wheat, knocking down countless elite Yakshas in waves on the bloody battlefield.

Only those who guarded and crowned the kings, with their few generals, could touch the walls of Chujing. Even under the deliberate release of Xing Tianli, many of the guards and crowned the kings had torn the energy shield, set up the cloud ladder, and brazenly climbed up the walls of Chujing, killing all around among the "sacrificial naked people".

With this achievement, the prince boasted in front of Chi Guoguo for a long time. What he meant was, see, how powerful and awesome I am. Look, the throne of the next Yaksha King is almost certain to be won by me.

This guy was only concerned with showing off, just like the other garrisons and kings, and he didn't notice at all that the elite troops he had mobilized had been mostly killed, his own confidants had almost all been lost, and even most of his own children and grandchildren had been killed on the battlefield.

The Yakshas, ​​who were not very smart, simply failed to notice this.

They howled and launched wave after wave of attacks, creating a sea of ​​blood and corpses outside the city of Chujing.

The sea is the blood of Yaksha.

They charged forward in waves, completely tirelessly.

Many times, the number of these Yaksha people was too large and their formation was too dense. The 'Ji Luo people' deployed by Xing Tianli in Chujing and the weapons they controlled were no longer able to promptly and effectively clear out the densely packed Yaksha people who were swarming in like a tsunami outside the city.

So, Xing Tianli took action himself.

As the sword formation was activated, the Yaksha people within a radius of dozens of miles outside the four city walls suddenly stiffened. There was a tiny sword mark between their eyebrows and pierced through their heads. They fell down in an orderly manner like bamboo poles under a sickle, and then endless Yaksha people continued to surge up and trampled them under their feet without emotion.

Once the sword formation is activated, hundreds of thousands or even millions of Yaksha warriors will be strangled to death.

But such losses were not noticeable at all in such a chaotic battlefield covering thousands of miles - or, some high-ranking Yaksha officials noticed that large areas of dead zones appeared on the battlefield from time to time, but they were so overwhelmed by the will to fight that they didn't care about these.

In the sky, the vortex of Yin energy released by the Tongtian Yuling Banner was madly devouring the flying Yaksha spirits. There were also ghost kings with superb cultivation who set up a large formation underground, madly collecting and devouring the blood of the Yaksha elite.

The nourishing effect of these essences and blood on the ghost slaves is far greater than the mixed and turbid souls of the Yaksha people.

As the war continued, ghost lights kept shooting up into the sky from the Tongtian Yuling Banner. They were high-level armored warriors and evil ghosts who successfully made a breakthrough to their realms with the help of the endless Yaksha spirits and blood essence.

There were also armored soldiers and evil spirits who moved quietly, dragging the relatively intact bodies of the Yakshas into the ground one by one, and sending them to Chu Jing one by one, so that Xing Tianli could send them into the Tongtian Yuling Banner for careful processing.

One, ten, a hundred...

As time passed, the bodies of the Yaksha in the Tongtian Yuling Banner flashed with cold metallic light. Under the refining formation of Xingtianli, they had become extremely murderous, and their strength had increased by more than a hundred times than when they were alive.

In this way, half a month later, the Yaksha people's crazy offensive stopped.

Chi Guoguo, who had already withdrawn his camp 500 miles away and was 300 miles away from Xing Tianli's abnormal gravity field, also began to slap his big heads that were as heavy as a mountain: "What? Your army was wiped out? In just half a month?"

It’s all lit up, really all lit up.

Half a month of madness.

In the city of Chujing, the barrels of those high-energy cannons melted again and again, and some gun positions even exploded more than a dozen times due to overload.

With the strong bodies of those ghost slaves, they were all a little tired and out of breath.

Lighted up.

Chi Guoguo remained silent.

The guards and princes felt inexplicably cold all over. A suffocating chill seeped out from their bones little by little, freezing their bodies and their souls, making them want to just sneeze heartily.

"Ah, Ah!"

Many of the guards and princes began to sneeze violently and cough crazily. From their mouths and noses, glaring blue-red blood plasma kept gushing out, and in the blood plasma, there was also some inexplicable tissue that looked like fragments of mucous membranes in the body.

"Someone, take an inventory." Chi Guoguo gave the correct order.

The Jiuzhou Sima and Jiuzhou Zhubu who were accompanying the army came out tremblingly and began to count the troops under the command of 1,098 garrisons and 238 princes, as well as the garrisons and princes themselves.

An hour later, the inventory results came out.

Within half a month, these garrisons and princes left behind nearly 2 billion elite Yakshas outside the city of Chujing.

It was just that each garrison and prince lost an average of 30,000 to 50,000 Tiger Guards and nearly two million Iron Wall Army.

Yes, that's right, all the garrison troops under the command of the princes were killed.

However, there are still more than half of their Iron Wall Army left!Chi Guoguo and the guards and princes all turned pale. Two billion elite members of the tribe were lost in just half a month? When did the Yaksha people become the weak foreign races they had conquered in the past?

Only when conquering those alien races with weak bodies can the main army of the Yaksha tribe achieve such results!With the power of earthly immortals, heavenly immortals, and golden immortals, they crushed mortals, searched mountains and forests, went up to heaven and down to earth, and hunted those ants that had no power to resist... Two billion in half a month, when it was time to crush mortals, this number was reasonable. But now, the ones who lost in half a month were the Yaksha people.

"Your Majesty, it's not difficult to calculate!" The military commander looked at Chi Guoguo with trepidation. This guy had such a big mouth, and was still spewing saliva and blood foam. A pungent fishy smell hit his nose. The military commander even suspected that Chi Guoguo had gone to steal pig manure these days?"Each army and each battalion of your nobles' armies has a flag."

"Your Majesty has seen these days that the armies of the nobles have been charging forward with their flags, and they never turned back even if they were killed... We only need to count the total number of flags of the armies of 10,000, 100,000, and 1 million people that the princes brought, and how many are left now, and we can calculate their approximate casualties."

After a light cough, the military commander lowered his head and said, "Not only that, of the 1,098 garrison troops, only 730 are left, and of the princes, only 125 are left."

Chi Guoguo's body shook and her fingers loosened suddenly. The marching Sima fell from a height of several feet above the ground. He turned over very lightly and stood steadily on the ground.

“How is it possible?” Chi Guoguo and a group of guards and princes vomited blood, roared, and coughed violently. Some even sat down on the ground while coughing and panting. “Guards and princes, the weakest ones are all high-level Golden Immortals.”

The military commander remained silent.

As a Jiuzhou descendant who is trusted and valued in the Yaksha Palace, he certainly has other channels of information. He naturally knows that the person who set up the terrible killing plan in Chujing City is not a "Ji Luo People" at all, but a terrible cultivator from Jiuzhou's homeland.

Since they are monks from their homeland, isn't it natural that the Yaksha people suffered such terrible casualties?As for the descendants of Jiuzhou who were the most trusted by the Yaksha King, these military Sima and military chief clerks, after knowing that the enemy came from their homeland of Jiuzhou, they completely abandoned the Yaksha King's Palace.

In the past, when the Yaksha people were fighting in the heavens and conquering one weak civilization after another, these descendants of Jiuzhou were willing to give advice to the Yaksha people in order to demonstrate their own value and to trade for a more favorable environment for themselves and their people - or at least to ensure that their people would not become food for the Yaksha high-level officials.

But this time, during the half-month massacre, they did not offer any strategy. They did not even alert Chi Guoguo and many Yaksha leaders who had already gone crazy.

They watched with great delight as these Yaksha people launched a desperate charge, and then they really died.

It's really pleasing to the eyes.

The news they had received these days from many channels was that because many garrisons and princes had frantically mobilized their troops and their messengers had been constantly traveling back and forth, this terrible plague had spread to all the garrisons and princes' territories.

The longer the time goes, the more serious the epidemic will become.

While these garrisons and princes were still madly attacking Chujing and fighting for the throne of the next Yaksha King, they were completely unaware that their own territories and fiefdoms were already filled with coughing sounds, countless patients were vomiting blood, and countless patients were dying.

Of course, all those who died were Yakshas, ​​not a single one from the Miao ethnic group of Kyushu.

In these days, the fierce poison of the second formula has been multiplying and spreading wildly in their bodies. Even though many of them have already broken through the Taiyi realm, the prescription improved by the Black Sun Sect Leader and others is still eroding their strong bodies bit by bit, and breaking through their body's defenses bit by bit.

Vomiting blood, vomiting blood continuously.

Every time they spat out blood, their breath became weaker, their cultivation regressed, their body's resistance weakened, and the power of voodoo increased silently.

"How is this possible?" Chi Guoguo was so desperate that she almost cried.

It would be fine if they were just ordinary members of the tribe, but these 2 billion Yaksha people are all top elite troops like the Huben Army and the backbone of the Iron Wall Army. How could they be killed just like that outside the tiny city of Chujing, which is only 200 miles in radius?

All the Yaksha leaders’ minds went blank.

With their intelligence, they could not understand how big a number "two billion" was for a while. For these Yaksha high-level officials, the numbers they used most often were probably below five hundred.

For example, you have more than a dozen heads.

For example, you have dozens of children.

For example, one meal consisted of several roasted cows.

That's about it. In their daily lives, they don't need to use too big numbers. There are tens of millions of gold ingots in their storehouses, tens of millions of rolls of silk and satin in their warehouses, millions of acres of land in their names, and they have many wives, concubines, and slaves. All of these are managed for them by the accountants of the Miao people in Jiuzhou.

On weekdays, they even feel unfamiliar with the numbers of thousands or tens of thousands.

Fortunately, they had enough arms, enough slaps, enough fingers, and they could count with their fingers, one by one, 'huff, huff'.

Finally, even the most stupid prince, with the help of Jiuzhou's advisor, figured out how big the 2 billion was. Their faces turned pale, and some even cried.

Two billion... Since the Yaksha people usurped the Western Chu Empire, they have been waging foreign wars for more than ten thousand years. Their most devastating foreign war only resulted in only a few hundred thousand casualties.

Two billion……

At the rate at which the Yakshas reproduce, how many years will it take to make up for the two billion people?"Boom, boom, boom!"The sound of deep drums came from the distant horizon.

Three nine-headed war beasts flapped their wings slowly and flew towards us from a distance. The first generation of Yaksha King stood on the back of the first war beast, and on the two war beasts behind, Yaksha warriors carried big drums and beat them slowly with heavy bone hammers.

The drum beats shook the sky and the sound could be heard thousands of miles away.

Chi Guoguo and the others' faces changed again, and they knelt on the ground without saying a word.

Is the situation already that serious?

Chi Guoguo even cursed in a low voice, which bastard was so blind that he reported what happened here to the ancestors? Isn't it just a loss of 2 billion... cough cough, 2 billion... elites!

The war beasts flew over the hill, and the first generation of Yaksha King ignored these incompetent descendants.

He just squinted his eyes slightly and glanced at these bastards - the death of two billion elite tribesmen, haven't you found the problem yet? How could a mere Ji Luo people have such strength?"The heavens have been so cruel to my clan. Could it be that all the brains of my clan are only contained in my head?" The first Yaksha King felt a slight pain in his heart and coughed lightly a few times.

He was far, far stronger than these incompetent juniors, and the second poison prepared by the Black Sun Cult leader was still unable to do anything to him.

Three hundred miles away from Chujing, the first Yaksha King jumped off his war beast.

He took off his clothes, naked, and took a bunch of three-foot-thick thorns from the two accompanying strongmen, and put them on his back. He strode towards the wall of Chujing. The abnormal gravity field set up by Xing Tianli had no effect on him.

He walked straight to the city gate where Xing Tianli was. There were still ten miles away from the city gate. He knelt heavily on the ground with a bang.
