Chapter 201 Armistice and messengers
Faced with Xu Jin's attack, the general of Qi was not showing any weakness. He waved his weapon and stabbed a blue light. The blue light collided with the blood-colored sword light. The two attacks stalemate in the void for a moment, making a harsh friction sound, and then exploded with a bang.
After the two attacks collided and exploded, the blood-colored sword light turned into a sharp blood light and continued to sweep forward. Seeing this, the general of Qi quickly retracted the weapon in his hand and blocked it, and activated the magic power in his body, causing the blue gem at the front of the weapon to emit a dazzling light, protecting him firmly.
When the blood-colored light was blocked by the light emitted by the blue gem, the other party suddenly waved his arm forward, and the dazzling blue light curled up the blood light that had not yet dissipated, and rolled back together, attacking Xu Jin again.
The attack of returning back was blocked by the defense of the Blood Pagoda as soon as it arrived in front of Xu Jin. Xu Jin, who did not need to make other defenses at all, had already swung the short sword in his hand again. At the moment when the attack of returning back back was blocked, another blood-colored sword light took advantage of this opportunity to arrive in front of the generals of Qi.
Faced with Xu Jin's attack, the general of Qi in front of him could no longer react in time, but at this critical moment, the illusory ghost behind the other party once again penetrated into his body. Then, the general's body faded again, avoiding Xu Jin's wonderful knife at this time.
The Taoist soldiers behind him also entered a state of virtualization at this moment. After entering a state of virtualization, everyone suddenly opened their mouths wide, as if they were roaring, but no sound sounded.
But at this moment, a shrill howling suddenly sounded in Xu Jin's mind, the sound was like a ghostly roar, with a force that seemed to shatter people's souls.
Faced with such a roar, Xu Jin instantly felt that his consciousness was hit, and the operation of magic power in his body was affected. Not only him, but also the Taoist soldiers under him also heard such a sound at this time, and naturally they were also affected.
In an instant, the blood-colored pagoda above everyone's heads trembled violently, becoming very unstable, as if it was going to dissipate in the next moment. At this moment, the Heaven-Booding Soldier in Xu Jin's sea of consciousness suddenly shone brightly. Under the illumination of the five-color light, Xu Jin instantly broke free from the influence of the roar on him, and fought back with the situation!
The Taoist soldiers who were making silent roars suddenly saw a giant beast in their minds that looked like a monkey, with white heads and red feet. They raised their heads and let out a fierce roar with endless killing intentions.
"roar!"
With the roar of the giant beast, the roar heard in the minds of Xu Jin and his Taoist soldiers suddenly disappeared. In contrast to them, the Taoist soldiers who had originally made silent roars trembled violently and directly retreated from the state of emptiness. Then blood oozed out of the seven orifices, and the aura on their bodies plummeted, as if they had lost their combat power at once.
Only the general of Qi State was in a better state at this time, but the other party's eyes looked at Xu Jin obviously became even more serious. With a wave of the weapon in his hand, he immediately distanced himself from Xu Jin.
Xu Jin, who had an advantage in an instant, could he stop easily at this time? As the magic power in his body was activated, the blood-colored pagoda above his head stabilized again. Xu Jin held a short sword in his hand and suddenly slashed forward, swinging a sharp sword light, and then followed closely behind, leading the Taoist soldiers under his command and continued to rush forward.
At this time, the Taoist soldiers who had retreated to both sides were driven to block the front. A blood-colored sword light passed by, and the bodies of the Taoist soldiers were cut in half, causing a piece of Qi's camp in front to be vacant.
Just after this moment of kung fu, another practitioner from the Qi country took action. As several green lights lit up, countless leaves emitting green light flew. After colliding with the defense beside Xu Jin, a series of sounds of gold and iron clashing sounds were heard.
Xu Jin continued to rush forward with this series of attacks, but at this time, a large area of thorns emerged from the ground in front, preventing him from continuing to move forward. At the same time, the Qi army quickly retreated, obviously no longer preparing to continue fighting.
Seeing that the other party was about to retreat, Xu Jin thought about it, and the six blood-colored pagoda above his head began to rotate, and the blood-colored light around his body compressed and condensed.
"burst!"
With a huge roar, the blood-colored pagoda compressed to a certain extent exploded, and the blood-colored light swept across the surroundings. The thorns blocking ahead were instantly destroyed, and the void was twisted under this powerful force.
Some of the retreating Qi army were also shrouded in this bloody light. Fortunately, the Qi army also rose in the Qi army at the same time, protecting the Qi army as much as possible, so as not to wipe out the entire Qi army that was in the attack range.
When the bloody light dissipated, Xu Jin stood there, within more than two or three miles around, there was no grass growing on the ground. After paying a certain price, the remaining people had already retreated.
"What a pity!"
Looking at the Qi army that was moving away, Xu Jin said in his heart that it was a pity that he had launched the attack just now, otherwise the power of the attack would not be that much. There would be even fewer people who could retreat at this time.
The other party has retreated now, and Xu Jin has no intention of continuing to pursue. Although the battle just now did not last long, Qi Guo showed quite strong strength, so Xu Jin and his Taoist soldiers also consumed a lot of magic power.
Moreover, the fighting style of Qi Kingdom is obviously a relatively stable type. If you continue to catch up, you may encounter some methods that the other party can make in advance.
With his Taoist soldiers under his command, Xu Jin also retreated a little, and then began to restore the lost mana in his body. After Xu Jin recovered the mana in his body, the Qi priest who came with him told him that the Qi army stopped after retreating for more than 30 miles and set up camp there, without any intention of leaving.
After learning the news, Xu Jin was not surprised. The Qi army was not weak. Although he had taken some advantage in the battle just now, the Qi army did not actually lose much power.
The masters of Jiming realm did not lose any of them in the previous battle, and even except for that general, the methods of others were not fully revealed. Moreover, among the Qi Dao soldiers who were killed by Xu Jin, most of them were Dao soldiers who originally belonged to Jingguo.
Under such circumstances, the Qi army still maintained considerable combat effectiveness, so it was naturally impossible to withdraw so easily.
Qi seemed to be ready for a protracted war, and Xu Jin began to think about what he should do next, whether to continue leading people to attack, or turn around and return to Gujiu first, and wait for Qi to take action next time, and then he will take action again.
Among these two choices, Xu Jin was more inclined to the former. After all, he didn't have much power to use, and he had basically brought it all out. It was actually a bit unfavorable for him to be in a long-term stalemate with Qi.
Just as Xu Jin was thinking about whether to continue attacking the Qi army next, a stream of light suddenly flew from afar. After approaching Xu Jin and others, the speed of the stream of light slowed down. Seeing this, the worshiper named Qi next to him immediately waved at the stream of light and quickly captured the stream of light.
Xu Jin looked closely and saw a jade plate on his hand of the worshiper Qi. When he saw Xu Jin coming, the worshiper Qi did not look at the content of the jade plate first, but handed it to Xu Jin directly.
After taking the jade plate from the other party's hand, Xu Jin injected mana into it, and then saw the contents of it.
After seeing the contents, Xu Jin handed the jade plate again to the worshiper Qi next to him. After the other party took it, he quickly browsed the contents and frowned.
The jade plate was sent by the Qi State, and the content was very simple. The first is that the Qi State hoped that Xu Jin would stop temporarily. The second is that the Qi State decided to send an envoy to contact Xu Jin tomorrow, hoping to get Xu Jin's reception.
"Master Xu Bingzhu, Qi's move is probably delaying time. After today's battle, they will report the results. By tomorrow, Qi's side will inevitably send more power!" The consecrated consecrated head up and said to Xu Jin.
When Xu Jin heard this, he nodded slightly, but in his heart, he felt that Qi Guo’s plan should be more than that.
Strictly speaking, Qi State did not do its best in the battle just now, and of course, Xu Jin did not use his full strength. Now that the battle has just ended, Qi State sent news that it would send envoys to meet Japan, and I am afraid that Qi State had already made some plans for this trip to Gujiu.
Since Qi State had already planned, at this time, even if Xu Jin wanted to continue attacking, there would probably be no result. It was just that he continued to move forward and Qi State retreated with the flow. Moreover, Xu Jin could not be too far away from Gujiu, so it would be easy for someone to steal the family. Even if there is a Jiming realm master in Gujiu now, you can't be too careless.
After thinking about this in his heart, Xu Jin realized that the messenger of Qi State might have to meet him, but he still asked the envoy of Qi next to him.
"What the predecessor said is very likely. In the view of the predecessor, do we need to meet the messenger of Qi?"
Hearing Xu Jin's question, the consort surnamed Qi thought for a moment, and then replied to Xu Jin.
"Since Qi State sends an envoy, it should be seen whether it is reasonable or reasonable. We will win the battle first, and I am afraid that if we want to take advantage of the victory, Qi State will not fight with us again!"
"So, let's see you. We will set up camp again today. We will also ask our seniors to arrange some warning measures to prevent Qi from using secret tricks!" Xu Jin nodded and said when he heard this.
“This is natural!”
The consort surnamed Qi also nodded and agreed.
Next, everyone camped and set up camps on the spot. The envoys of Qi set up some magic warnings around them. Wang An also led the Blood Owl Taoist soldiers to undertake the task of night warnings.
At night, Xu Jin floated above the camp and looked at the camp of Qi from afar. With his eyesight, he could clearly see the location of Qi's camp. However, when he looked at Qi's camp, the scene he saw was blurred. It was because of magic. Now the same is true for their camp.
Looking at the camp of Qi State, Xu Jin did not feel a very strong murderous intent from it. He didn't know whether it was covered up by Qi State's means, or whether after today's battle, the other party did not have such a great murderous intent to them for the time being.
Just as Xu Jin was looking at the Qi State camp, someone seemed to notice Xu Jin's gaze there, and a gaze also fell on Xu Jin. Then, a figure wearing armor slowly floated into the air. It was the Qi State general who fought with Xu Jin during the day.
With more than thirty miles apart, the two of them looked at each other in the night sky, and they both revealed a sense of fighting spirit. Through the daytime battle, both of them understood their respective strength. Although Xu Jin's cultivation level was one level lower, with the blessing of the Taoist soldiers under his command, the combat power burst out must be above the other party, so that the other party can face it.
"I am the general of Qi and Bai Li. I hope there will be another chance to fight in the future!"
After the other person's figure floated into the air, after about three or four breaths, a voice came into Xu Jin's ears. Only then did Xu Jin realize the name of the general of Qi.
What is more embarrassing is that Xu Jin did not have the other party's means to quickly deliver his voice to the other party's ears, so he could only nod to the other party, signal that he would remember the name, and then turn around and fall back to the camp.
After Xu Jin fell back to the camp, Bai Li's figure did not stop and fell back into the camp of Qi. His purpose seemed to be just to say hello to Xu Jin and formally introduce himself.
The night passed calmly. At noon the next day, a group of people left the camp at Qi State camp and came towards Xu Jin. The leader was a master of Jiming realm who appeared yesterday, and should be the messenger sent by Qi State to contact.
There were about twenty people following this Jiming realm master. Each of them held a wooden box with runes burned on the surface. There was no breath in it, and they didn't know what was inside. However, judging from this posture, the group of people looked like they were here to give gifts.
The speed of a group of people was neither fast nor slow. After about a quarter of an hour, they arrived at the camp of Xu Jin and others.
"The envoy of Qi State, come to pay homage to the Soldier Lord Xu Jin!"
Before coming to the camp, the people of Qi stopped and the master of Jiming who was walking in front of the crowd spoke loudly.
The entourage of Qi had already been waiting in front of the camp. After the other party finished speaking, they came up immediately. Both sides saluted each other. Then the entourage of Qi turned around and waved his hand behind him. The Xuefutu Taoist soldiers in front of the camp gate immediately turned to the left and right sides, and then retreated five steps in unison to make way.
"The Soldier Lord is waiting for the Qi envoy to come, please!"
