Disaster Strikes

After returning to Jinyang City, Ling Xiaotian looked at the dozen Nanhai Sword Sect disciples in front of him.

These disciples are only members of the Sihai Hall. Although their strength is not bad in the Jinyang Kingdom, they are only low-level inner disciples of the Nanhai Sword Sect. It is really difficult to entrust them with big responsibilities.

But when he looked at Chen Mo again, he couldn't help but feel shocked.

A swordsman who had followed himself and his father all the way to this world and struggled in despair after being separated, waiting for rescue. He had let him down, the Sword Forging Villa had let him down, and the Nanhai Sword Sect had also let him down. .

Immediately, an indelible fighting spirit gradually emerged in his deep eyes.

"Nie Yuanfeng."

"The disciple is here!"

Ling Tianxiao said in a low voice: "You ride on my Blue Eyes Controlling Thunder Beast and rush to the Yu Kingdom as quickly as possible to ask for an audience with the Plain Sword Sect. Tell them that I will resist the vanguard of the monster army in Jinyang City, and delay it for at least... a month!"

After Nie Yuanfeng was stunned for a moment, he saw Ling Tianxiao's determined eyes.

"yes!"

Immediately, a loud thunderstorm broke out, and the blue-eyed thunder beast rose into the sky, carrying Nie Yuanfeng away quickly.

"The rest of you will follow me."

"yes……"

More than ten people followed the Blue Eyes Thunder Beast and walked towards the palace of Jinyang City.

After seeing everyone's Nanhai Sword Sect costumes, the guards retreated away. After Ling Tianxiao led everyone into the palace, they learned that the king of this mini country had already fled to the nearby Lan Kingdom with many concubines, ministers, and confidants. .

The reason why Jinyang Kingdom has not fallen into chaos now is because of Prince Gong's hard support.

At this moment, the number of high-level swordsmen in Jinyang City is less than one-third of the previous number. The three great swordsman generals have been transferred by the king, and there are still more than a dozen second-level secret swordsman commanders who are all in disarray. If Prince Gong hadn’t continued to boost morale, , Jin Yangguo is afraid that it has already fallen into chaos.

Many Nanhai Sword Sect disciples secretly looked at Ling Tianxiao.

Almost everyone could see the haze and frost on his face.

After taking a deep breath, Ling Tianxiao said in a low voice: "Since there is no king, from now on, the Nanhai Sword Sect will take over this place."

When Prince Gong heard this, his face showed great joy.

"This is really great!"

Immediately under the order of Prince Gong, these secret swordsman commanders quickly gathered from all over Jinyang City, followed Ling Tianxiao's arrangements, and guarded Jinyang City.

"yes!"

Many of these commanders had already asked their families to leave Jinyang Country, and they themselves were preparing to run away at any time. Now Ling Tianxiao's sudden appearance made everyone confused.

But in front of this great swordsman, these commanders did not dare to say anything, and they all followed his orders to carry out their tasks.

Ling Tianxiao knew that he had to find a way to stabilize people's hearts as soon as possible.

"You guys."

Ling Tianxiao pointed at nine Nanhai Sword Sect disciples at random, including Lan Bao and Zhang Cuicui, and said calmly: "Responsible for guiding those in the city who plan to leave the people and go to Yue Kingdom."

"Elder, why don't you go to Yu Country?"

"It's too late."

Ling Tianxiao waved his hand and said: "Go and make arrangements quickly. In about three days at most, the vanguard of the monster army will surround this place. By then, it will be impossible to leave. You have to race against time."

"yes!"

The nine Nanhai Sword Sect disciples left one after another.

Ling Tianxiao said resolutely: "Take me to the central control area of ​​Jinyang City."

"yes."

Prince Gong continued to introduce the situation in the city. Ling Tianxiao listened quietly. As the group arrived at the central control area deep underground, the four formation masters who were controlling the formation disks all looked over.

Prince Gong said: "This is Elder Ling of the Nanhai Sword Sect. Quickly introduce to Elder Ling the Four Yang Vajra Formation in Jinyang City!"

"yes."

One of the oldest female formation masters said slowly: "The Four Yang Vajra Formation was built under the order of King Tianyou himself when the Jinyang Kingdom was established. The formation has a total of 360 formation base nodes, distributed in Jinyang. Everywhere in the city, combined with countless traps created by civil engineering master Zhang Zhiyi, formed Jinyang City’s impregnable defense.”

"It's actually a complete formation?"

Not only Ling Tianxiao, but Chen Mo was also shocked!

Ling Tianxiao, who originally had a serious face, now looked angry and said: "Why haven't I heard that there is a complete formation here before?"

When the four formation masters heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other.

"This...according to regulations, in order to save the cost of spiritual stones, Jinyang City usually only activates 72 formation bases, which can activate about one-tenth of the power of the large formation. However, the current King of Jinyang has not allocated funds for many years. "Yes, the basic supplies we get from the treasury can only barely activate the formation and prevent Xiaoxiao from destroying it at will."

Generally speaking.

As long as it is a complete formation, even if the power of the formation is weak, it can still hinder and threaten level four creatures and play an important role in large-scale wars. Not only Ling Tianxiao did not expect it, but also the Nanhai Sword Sect did not expect that such a A small country actually arranged a complete formation!

Three hundred and sixty formation bases are more than a thousand high-quality swords.

"This idiot!"

After Ling Tianxiao scolded angrily, he looked at Prince Gong and said, "Immediately allocate funds to activate the Jinyang City Formation."

"this……"

Prince Gong looked troubled and said, "I've already seen it, and all the money in the treasury has been taken away."

Ling Tianxiao heard this and looked at Chen Mo and Zhao Miner and said, "You two take the soldiers of the Jiazi Camp and go to the mansions of nobles and wealthy merchants everywhere. Collect spiritual stones by any means. Make sure to collect 5,000 spiritual stones before dark and transport them here."

"Yes!"

"Yes."

Chen Mo was excited. He never dreamed that such a good thing would fall on his head.

Ling Tianxiao said vigorously, "Take me to the armory."

"Yes."

Not to mention Ling Tianxiao's reaction after entering the armory and seeing hundreds of thunder sacrifice mechanical men piled up in the corner covered with dust, Chen Mo and Zhao Miner came to the Jiazi Camp with tokens in hand, each of them transferred fifty soldiers and looked at the defense map of Jinyang City in the camp.

"We have more than four hours, not too much, not too little, we need to collect 5,000 spirit stones, which is not a small amount, especially when those nobles and merchants have already fled Jinyang City, we must use some means."

Jinyang City is just a small country capital, this task is quite difficult.

"What do you plan to do? I'll listen to you."

Zhao Min'er now trusts Chen Mo 100%.

"I took a look. The nobles are all concentrated in the East City, and the merchants are all concentrated in the South City. We have limited manpower, but fortunately, there are only a few nobles and merchants left in the city. We will split our troops into two groups. The first step is to seize all the property of the nobles and merchants who are still moving the subsequent property. Those who resist will be killed without mercy. Some goods that cannot be cashed will be distributed to the people in the city on the street to gain their support. Then, using the power of the people in the city, we will invite the small nobles and merchants who are still stranded in the city to come to the military camp. If we are quick, two hours should be enough."

"Okay!"

These days, Zhao Min'er has seen countless people starving and destitute. She has long hated the rulers here, but she cannot interfere in worldly affairs due to the rules of the sect.

Now that she has the opportunity, she will naturally not be soft-hearted.

Chen Mo's plan went smoothly.

Just two hours later, countless people gathered in front of the military camp and sent hundreds of merchants and nobles who had not yet escaped to the military camp. Zhao Min'er counted the goods of the nobles that were seized. There were only more than a thousand spot spirit stones and some high-value hard currency, but it was far from the target of 5,000 spirit stones.

"Damn it!"

Zhao Min'er said coldly: "Most of the finances were taken away by those guys."

"There is no way. Extraordinary times require extraordinary measures."

Chen Mo commanded two soldiers and said: "Bring the two bodies here."

"Yes."

The soldiers brought the bodies to the place where the nobles and merchants were detained. As the two soldiers threw the bodies into the crowd, these nobles and merchants suddenly showed horror on their faces and retreated.

Chen Mo scolded: "In accordance with the order of Prince Gong, from now on, the whole city will be under martial law to implement the joint anti-demon plan. People in the city will contribute money and strength."

Zhao Min'er began to distribute paper to everyone present.

"All of you here are nobles and merchants in the city. You are all people of status. It is naturally impossible for you to go up to the city wall to help. Then you can donate money. I won't make it difficult for you. Everyone write a number and convert it into spirit stones. I will send someone to your home to get it later. You can write as much as you want. I will never force you."

Everyone looked at each other. Some of them tried to please each other. Just as they were about to write, Chen Mo coughed again.

"Ahem, but I would like to remind everyone here that you should think clearly before filling in the form, because I will select a few people who donated the least amount of money as a bad example of not being willing to carry out the joint anti-demon plan and not being willing to pay, and send them to the death squad on the city wall to help!"

Everyone's face changed drastically.

Before night fell, Chen Mo and Zhao Min'er delivered 5,000 spirit stones to the underground central control room on time. As for how much Chen Mo embezzled during this process, outsiders did not know.

Rumble, rumble!

As the formation was fully opened, a huge light shield gradually appeared in the sky above Jinyang City, with ripples flashing and a terrifying energy aura spreading, echoing with the sunset in the sky.

"Well done."

Ling Tianxiao nodded and praised, then looked at the hundreds of Thunder Festival mechanical men neatly arranged in the palace.

These Thunder Festival mechanical men were forged with the Thunder Festival refining technique, with different human and animal shapes, and their whole bodies showed a simple beauty, with the characteristics of absorbing lightning and exerting stronger power.

"Really Lei Wu's nemesis."

Chen Mo couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Ling Tianxiao seemed to be quite interested in these specialties of the Golden Essence World.

That's right, he is from the Sword Casting Villa after all, and his refining skills are probably not inferior to Chen Mo.

"What a pity! If it were during the thunder season, the strength of these mechanical men would have greatly increased. That foolish king actually let them gather dust in the armory and refused to use them for battle."

"Elder, those formation masters said that after the formation is activated, more than 36 great swordsmen are needed to match them to increase the power of the formation to the strongest. At the very least, 12 great swordsmen are needed to exert the power of the formation. I'm afraid we can't even exert half of the power of the formation now..."

Zhao Min'er stuttered after taking a peek at Ling Tianxiao.

"It's not used to fight the Blood Moon Demon King, it's enough."

Ling Tianxiao looked up at the sky, at the gradually clear blood-red full moon, feeling the increasingly strong evil, brutality, and ominous aura in the sky, with a hint of disgust and solemnity in his eyes.

This desperate war plan is not only for this traveler, but also for himself!
