Chapter 237: Surprise Attack on the Merchant Camp, Li Xingba Dies!

The next day.

Jiang Ziya selected his troops to go to battle, looking very high-spirited.

Under his arrangement, Yang Jian soared into the air, flew out of the army formation, and stood in front of the two armies to challenge.

"I am Yang Jian, a third-generation disciple of the Chan Sect. Who dares to fight me?"

[I hope readers will remember our domain name Taiwan Novel Network →𝒕𝒘𝒌𝒂𝒏.𝒄𝒐𝒎]

Yang Jian held a three-pointed double-edged sword, wore a black gauze scarf, and wore a light yellow robe with armor. He had majestic phoenix eyes, a heroic and handsome appearance, a majestic demeanor, a slender and powerful figure, and a spine as straight as a pine tree.

With the cultivation of Taiyi Jinxian Realm, his appearance was excellent and no one dared to underestimate him.

In the Great Shang Army, the Four Saints of Jiulong Island looked at each other, soared into the air, flew out of the camp, and stood opposite Yang Jian.

The pressure of Taiyi Jinxian Realm was also undisguised, sweeping across the battlefield.

"What an ignorant kid, do you really think you can show off here just because you have some skills?"

"Today, I, the Four Saints of Jiulong Island, will teach you a lesson on behalf of your master, so that you know that there are always people above you and there are always heavens above you!"

Although the Four Saints of Jiulong Island said this, they were not careless at all.

They lived longer than Yang Jian and knew the way to survive better.

They did not come up with any stupid idea of ​​one-on-one. The opponents they were good at were originally four people fighting together. How could they lower their combat power?

Even if it was four to one, they did not underestimate the enemy.

Throughout the ages, there are countless examples of people who fell because of carelessness and underestimated the enemy. They did not want to lose the big picture because of the small.

Moreover, the overall arrangement of the army of attacking Zhou by Emperor Xin, the Lord of the Shang Dynasty, also made the Four Saints of Jiulong Island more deeply aware of the truth that a lion fights a rabbit with all its strength.

So, after speaking harshly to each other, the Four Saints of Jiulong Island immediately went all out.

The eldest brother, Wang Mo, wears a one-character scarf, a water-reincarnation suit, has a face like a full moon, and holds the Lishui Sword, a post-natal top-grade spiritual treasure.

He is a master of swordsmanship and the great way of water. He is the strongest among the four and has perfected the cultivation of Taiyi Jinxian.

He took the lead in attacking, and with a sword, the sword light turned into an endless ocean, sweeping towards Yang Jian.

The second brother, Yang Sen, wears a black suit, has a face like the bottom of a pot, a beard like cinnabar, and two yellow eyebrows.

He holds the Kaitianzhu, a first-grade spiritual treasure, and the moment he throws it, it emits dazzling starlight, like a star, flying towards Yang Jian.

The third brother, Gao Yougan, has two solitary buns, wears a bright red suit, has a face like indigo, and hair like cinnabar.

He raises his hand to sacrifice the Hunyuanzhu, a first-grade spiritual treasure. Wherever he passes, the vitality of heaven and earth is in chaos, and it is difficult to distinguish up and down, and he does not know where he is.

The fourth brother, Li Xingba, wears a fishtail gold crown, wears a light yellow suit, has a face like a red date, and a long beard.

He also offered a lower-grade innate spiritual treasure, the Earth-Splitting Bead, and hit Yang Jian. The earth roared, as if Mount Tai was pressing down on him, and his movements were restricted.

The three beads of Kaitian, Pidi, and Hunyuan are a set. Together, they have the power of an innate upper-grade spiritual treasure, combining confusion, restraint, and skills.

Under the control of the Three Saints of Jiulong Island, the three beads not only greatly restricted Yang Jian.

The Kaitian Bead locked on to Yang Jian from a distance, waiting for Yang Jian to reveal a flaw and deal him a heavy blow.

In fact, there should be four innate beads in this set, namely Kaitian, Pidi, Hunyuan, and Zaohua.

It was when the world was first created, the innate qi absorbed a wisp of the origin of earth, wind, water, and fire.

It represents four different true meanings and contains the meaning of earth, wind, water, and fire.

If the four beads can be gathered together, the power of the best innate spiritual treasure can be exerted.

Unfortunately, the Four Saints of Jiulong Island were not blessed enough, and they have not been able to find the whereabouts of the Creation Orb for so many years.

In desperation, the old demon king could only practice the Great Way of Water and refine a water-attributed acquired spiritual treasure of the highest grade.

Boom!

Facing the ruthless Four Saints of Jiulong Island, Yang Jian did not dare to be careless.

Ten thousand years of practice have made him get rid of his impetuousness and never dare to be careless when fighting with others.

He operated the mysterious skills, and his magic power and strong blood surged, and he displayed the magical power of three heads and six arms.

He held a three-pointed two-edged sword in one hand, a golden bow and silver bullet in the other, a demon-slaying sword in one hand, and a white jade axe in the other.

Although they are all acquired spiritual treasures, they are all above the upper grade. Even if the three-pointed two-edged sword is placed among the best acquired spiritual treasures, it is among the best.

He fought one against four, and was not at all inferior. He danced the three-pointed two-edged sword with great vigor, splitting all kinds of magic and magical powers with horizontal and vertical slashes, showing a style of breaking all laws with force.

Coupled with the strong physical body provided by the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Art, the Four Saints of Jiulong Island were actually helpless for a while.

Although the Four Saints of Jiulong Island have practiced for a long time, they have more experience and cooperate more tacitly.

But Yang Jin's ten thousand years were not in vain. He often killed strong people with heavy karma.

Many immortals, demons, gods and demons fell under the three-pointed two-edged sword. It can be said that he has been through hundreds of battles and has rich experience.

Because of this, seeing that four against one could not take down Yang Jian, the Four Saints of Jiulong Island were furious. After looking at each other, they used their killer moves.

The four of them stepped on the Tiangang and stood in four directions with mysterious steps.

Then they each offered the spiritual treasure in their hands, and four terrifying visions of the earth, the strong wind, the ocean and the sea of ​​fire appeared behind them.

The power of earth, wind, water and fire surged out, gradually forming a large formation - the inverted four-elephant formation.

Ever since Jiejiao was defeated by the Guixu lineage, and suffered a series of defeats in the Xuanmen Conference.

Jiejiao immortals knew shame and then became brave, and tried their best to strengthen their strength.

In particular, the Guixu lineage stimulated them the most. They were all in the East China Sea, but the Guixu lineage had a high level of cultivation.

On the other hand, there were not many Jiejiao immortals who could show off.

The Jiejiao immortals also knew that in terms of qualifications and roots, they were not as good as the Chanjiao, let alone the Guixu.

So in addition to practicing, they put more energy on the way of formation.

Now looking at the entire prehistoric world, most of the disciples of Jiejiao can be regarded as experts in terms of the understanding of the way of formation.

Although the cultivation of the Four Saints of Jiulong Island is not high, their attainments in the way of formation are also among the best in Jiejiao.

This inverted four-image formation contains the power of the four elements of earth, wind, water and fire. It is powerful and unpredictable. No one below the Golden Immortal can break it.

The Four Saints of Jiulong Island planned to use this inverted four-image formation to suppress Yang Jian.

Yang Jian was also a veteran, and he immediately had a bad premonition.

His eye between his eyebrows opened, emitting a dazzling golden light, which had the magical effect of destroying all laws.

With the help of the golden light, Yang Jian broke through a hole before the formation was fully formed and escaped from it.

Jiang Ziya sighed helplessly and could only call off the battle and fight again the next day.

The Four Saints of Jiulong Island did not dare to continue chasing. The reason why they were able to force Yang Jian back was because of the formation.

If they removed the formation to chase Yang Jian, they would eventually fall into a stalemate.

More importantly, Xiqi had the support of the Chan Sect behind it. If they pursued rashly, they might be in danger.

You know, Yang Jian was just a third-generation disciple of the Chan Sect, but he could fight them back and forth, forcing them to take out the formation at the bottom of the box.

If there were one or two of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect in the Xiqi camp, wouldn’t they chase after them and never return?

Just when the Xiqi side was defeated, Shen Gongbao came to Chaoge City.

He was a smart person who was good at making friends with everyone. He soon got in touch with the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb and met the emperor of the Shang Dynasty through their introduction.

Shen Gongbao did have some skills, but for the current Shang Dynasty, he was not a very outstanding talent.

Therefore, Emperor Xin did not grant Shen Gongbao the position of state teacher as the time traveler remembered. 　　　　Instead, he appointed him as the Minister of Foreign Affairs, specifically responsible for dealing with other races, which was considered to be making the best use of his talents.

On the other side, Xiqi.

After two consecutive initial disadvantages, the top leaders of Xiqi and the three generations of disciples of the Chanjiao were all dejected.

It was thought that Yang Jian would personally take action this time to reverse the decline, kill the immortals of the Great Zhou, and boost morale.

Unexpectedly, the Four Saints of Jiulong Island would be in the Shang Dynasty barracks.

Even more unexpectedly, the Four Saints of Jiulong Island actually arranged such a brilliant formation.

In the end, Yang Jian not only fled in panic, but was almost trapped in the formation.

If he had not been experienced in battle and had the divine power of the Sky Eye, even if he would not fall for a while, he would probably be captured alive by the other side.

"I didn't expect that the inverted four-elephant formation was so dangerous. The four saints of Jiulong Island are indeed disciples of Jiejiao. They are quite capable."

After listening to Yang Jian's story, Jiang Ziya shook his head helplessly, sighed, and was very depressed.

He was appointed as the marshal by Zhou Wang Bo Yikao, in charge of the military power of the Great Zhou, and entrusted with important tasks.

I thought that from then on, I would turn into a dragon, and the army of the Great Zhou would be invincible and overthrow the rule of the Great Shang with the support of him and the Chanjiao.

However, reality gave him two hard slaps.

Before the main force of the Great Shang came, Xiqi suffered a series of defeats. First, Nezha was captured, and then Yang Jian was defeated.

Not only did the Chanjiao's reputation suffer, but it also caused his prestige to plummet, and the morale of Xiqi was low.

After thinking hard, Jiang Ziya finally thought of a feasible solution.

"Since we can't attack by force, then we should use our wits to defeat them one by one!"

After making the decision, Jiang Ziya ordered Yang Jian and Tu Xingsun to sneak into the Great Shang army camp tonight.

One used the immortal rope to capture the Great Shang Xuanxian general and used the earth escape technique to return to the Great Zhou army camp.

The other used the transformation technique to find the residence of the Four Saints of Jiulong Island and wait for an opportunity to kill one of them.

At the same time.

In the Great Shang army camp.

Lu Xiong and other senior officials and the immortals of Jiejiao were also holding a meeting. They didn't think that Xiqi would give up so easily and would definitely respond.

Because of Deng Jiugong, and Deng Chanyu was a second-generation disciple of Guixu, with Xuanxian cultivation.

In the Great Shang army, there was also a place and participated in this meeting.

"Generals, seniors, I have heard the master mention this matter about the third-generation disciples of the Chanjiao."

Hearing this, everyone sat up straight, even the Four Saints of Jiulong Island and Lu Yue were no exception, all with serious faces and listened attentively.

Deng Chanyu's ancestor is the Yellow Dragon Saint, the most famous saint in the prehistoric world.

His words represent authority no matter where they are, and no one will doubt what he says.

"Among the three generations of disciples of the Chan Sect, Yang Jian has the most profound cultivation. The Nine Revolutions Mysterious Art he practices is a simplified version of the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Art of his master."

"Not only is his body strong, he is also proficient in the art of transformation and has strong combat power. It is difficult to find an opponent among the same level."

"In addition to Yang Jian, there is another person among the three generations of disciples of the Chan Sect who must be guarded against."

"He is a disciple of Sun Zhenren, who was detained in Jialong Mountain. His name is Wuxing Sun. Although he is not good at fighting, he is very proficient in earth escape and hiding."

"He also possesses the top-grade innate spiritual treasure Immortal Binding Rope. If he sneaks into the army when we are careless and relaxed."

"Even if his cultivation is one realm higher than his, he will be bound by him if he is not careful for a while!"

"If he also comes to Xiqi this time to help Jiang Ziya, we must be more careful to avoid falling."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces suddenly became solemn.

It is said that it is easy to dodge a spear, but it is difficult to guard against a hidden arrow.

They are not afraid of Yang Jian's direct attack, but if someone can sneak into the military camp at any time, they have to guard against it.

At night.

Two figures appeared silently in the Dashang military camp, and they were Tuxingsun and Yang Jian.

One of them moved forward by burrowing into the earth, and the other turned into a flying insect, shuttling between the tents, looking for a suitable target.

With Deng Xiongyu's reminder, the Four Saints of Jiulong Island did not take it lightly and stayed in a tent all the time.

During the catastrophe, although they were affected by the catastrophe and it was difficult to comprehend the great way, they still did not slack off.

Yang Jian wandered outside the tent for a long time, but he never found an opportunity. In desperation, he could only look for Tuxingsun and ask him to stop temporarily and go back first.

In the Xiqi military camp.

Tuxingsun was full of dissatisfaction with Yang Jian.

He also went around in circles before finding a suitable target.

That was a heroic female fairy, and she was the daughter of Deng Jiugong.

If he captured her, he could not only threaten Deng Jiugong, but also get the beauty.

As a result, he was pulled back by Yang Jian just as he was about to take action.

In order to appease the resentful Tu Xingsun and to give Jiang Ziya an explanation, Yang Jian explained:

"Uncle Master, the atmosphere in the Shang camp is not right. They are too vigilant. I suspect they have guessed our actions."

"If we alert the snake, not only will the plan be exposed, but we will also find it difficult to escape."

"I thought, wait for a while, wait for the Shang Dynasty to relax, and Tu Xingsun and I will sneak into the barracks and kill two birds with one stone!"

Jiang Ziya stroked his beard and thought for a moment, and felt that Yang Jian's method was more reliable. He looked at the latter with admiration.

Although Tu Xingsun was unhappy, he saw that Jiang Ziya agreed, so he couldn't say anything.

Before going down the mountain, his master had solemnly warned him that after he came to Xiqi, everything should be arranged by Jiang Ziya.

Since his uncle agreed, no matter how he didn't count, he had to hold it in.

As time went by, after being alert for half a month, the Shang side gradually relaxed their vigilance after finding that Xiqi had no movement.

They thought that they were making a fuss and being suspicious, and Xiqi didn't have the courage to sneak into the Shang camp.

Especially the Four Saints of Jiulong Island and Lu Yue, they felt that what Xiqi should do now should be to find ways to ask for external help, instead of thinking about sneaking here.

At the beginning, Yang Jian forced out their bottom-box formation. If a few more Xianjiao immortals came, they would probably be defeated.

So, they asked for help from their familiar fellow disciples, hoping to invite a few Daluo Jinxian.

After doing all this, the Four Saints of Jiulong Island and Lu Yue relaxed a lot, and their vigilance was greatly reduced, which gave Xiqi an opportunity.

During this period, Yang Jian would come to the Shang army camp every few days to investigate. Seeing this scene, he was overjoyed.

But for the sake of safety, half a month later, Yang Jian and Tu Xingsun sneaked into the Shang camp again.

This time, Yang Jian found an opportunity and acted quickly. The three-pointed double-edged sword burst out with dazzling light, and in a flash, he killed Li Xingba, the fourth of the Four Saints of Jiulong Island.

After doing all this, Yang Jian did not leave rashly.

He knew that if he left at this time, he would be caught by the Shang.

So, he did the opposite, used his magical powers to hide in Li Xingba's body.

At the same time, Tu Xingsun on the other side also found Deng Chanyu, but his situation was not so smooth...
