Chapter 57 Continue the Attack

After recovering from his injuries, Emperor Qin regained his former fighting spirit and ordered an attack on the Heavenly Fire Territory. Millions of troops were like a rainbow, and they broke through the border of the Holy Fire Sect in one fell swoop. Rivers of blood flowed wherever they passed.

The soldiers of the Holy Fire Priest, whose morale was low, were beaten back and forth, and countless soldiers and armor were abandoned.

Within a week, Great Qin occupied one-fifth of the Heavenly Fire Territory, mobilized five million troops, and besieged Shenhuo Town, the important southeastern town of the Holy Fire Cult!

The Shenhuo Town here is not an ordinary town, but an important military location. It governs thousands of cities in the southeast of the Holy Fire Sect. It is extremely magnificent. The city is hundreds of feet high and dozens of miles long, and can garrison tens of millions of troops.

The Tsing Yi Legion, one of the ten sacred legions, is stationed here.

"General, the enemy will attack soon, what should we do?"

On the city wall, the green flag was fluttering, and a Holy Fire priest asked in a trembling voice.

During this period, they often heard the news of defeat, and they were frightened to death. If not for years of training and loyalty to the Holy Fire Cult, they would have fled without a trace.

"wait!"

Wan Yunhu held his sword in his hand and said calmly.

He is the Bishop of the Tsing Yi Legion and the backbone of the army. He must not show cowardice at any time to avoid disrupting the morale of the army.

In fact, he has no choice. Although there are millions of troops in the city, relying on the advantage of defending the city, but there is no strong man who has reached the holy realm to sit down, everything is empty talk.

The Great Qin Empire only needs to send one warrior who has entered the holy realm to destroy the city.

"Pass my order to attack the city!"

Below the city, Emperor Qin and his army rested, pulled out the emperor's sword, and gave a loud order.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

The army began to attack the city with a sound like thunder.

The evil spirit condensed, like a sea of ​​blood, surging into Shenhuo Town.

"cut!"

Bai Qi flew high into the sky, like a magic sword, with sharp edges and evil energy filling the sky, trying to kill all the enemies in the city.

The void began to tremble, and a thousand-foot-long sword energy appeared. It was blood red and revealed endless murderous intent. It slashed towards Shenhuo Town. The terrifying power left a sword energy gap in the sky.

boom!

With a huge sound, the city wall of Shenhuo Town, which had stood for tens of thousands of years, collapsed.

Countless Holy Fire priests died tragically under the sword's energy and were buried under the collapsed city wall. Their blood flowed and stained the broken bricks and tiles red.

Afterwards, densely packed Da Qin soldiers rushed into Shenhuo Town and killed a large number of enemies.

The next day, Shenhuo Town fell. The ruined city was filled with the corpses of Holy Fire priests. Blood mist floated and transformed into various shapes in the void, just like demons plundering.

In the city lord's palace, Wan Yunhu was sitting on a handsome chair, wearing a blue robe, and he drew his sword and committed suicide.

The banner of the Qin Empire was placed on the city wall to declare its sovereignty.

"Everyone, the Qin Dynasty is pressing forward step by step. Do you have any good strategies to retreat from the enemy?"

In the Holy City, Duan Yonghui was wearing a red royal robe, sitting on the throne of power, looking at the information about the fall of Shenhuo Town, his eyes full of sinister birds of prey, and he asked angrily.

After escaping from the battlefield, he immediately returned to the Holy City and became the new pope with the support of the gray-robed bishop Duan Shouming.

Although he became the new ruler of the Holy Fire Religion, his foundation was not stable. The local powerful forces began to make moves, and there were vague signs of breaking away from the control of the church.

In addition, the failure of the invasion of Great Qin destroyed the elite forces of the Red Legion, Purple Legion, and Yellow Legion. In addition, the Tsing Yi Legion stationed in Shenhuo Town sacrificed four legions in total.

There were also the Army in Green and the Army in Blue also suffered heavy losses.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Holy Fire Sect has reached the edge of a cliff, and if they take another step forward, they will fall into an endless abyss.

The bishops, priests, and deacons standing below all lowered their heads and looked sad, and no one dared to speak.

"Back to the Pope, now that the situation has come to an end, all we can do is ask for foreign aid!"

After a moment of silence, the leader in black, Han Yuquan, stood up and bowed respectfully.

Ask for foreign aid!

Everyone in the hall was silent.

Duan Yonghui was silent.

Everyone's expressions were extremely complicated, and for a moment, there was silence.

"From whom to ask for assistance?"

Finally, Duan Yonghui asked, the only forces that are close to the Heavenly Fire Domain are the Wuchang Mansion, the Sword Sect and the Dao Mansion in the Wuling Domain!

"Impermanence Mansion!"

Han Yuquan took a deep breath and spoke word by word with a solemn expression.

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions kept changing. Can you ask Wuchang Mansion for help? Even if you ask for help, how much will it cost?

The most critical point is that they are afraid of attracting wolves into the house. It is easy to invite gods but difficult to send them away. Don't drive away the Qin Empire and create another impermanent mansion.

Duan Yonghui closed his eyes slightly, covering the humiliation in his eyes. Asking for help from outside is a shame for any force.

But now, what can be done?

"Bishop in black, it was you who proposed the opinion, so it is up to you to go to Wuchang Mansion to ask for assistance!"

Duan Yonghui ordered solemnly.

"As you command!"

After Han Yuquan saluted, he exited the hall. As he left the door of the hall, a glimmer of light flashed deep in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, feeling very proud.

In addition to holding the position of Black Bishop of the Holy Fire Cult, he also has another identity.

"Pope, my subordinates suggest mobilizing heavy troops to defend the 'Demon Fire City', block the Qin Empire's attack, and protect the Holy City!"

After Han Yuquan left, Duan Shouming stepped forward and admonished him.

Demon Fire City is the last barrier of the Holy City. Once it is lost, it will completely shake the foundation of the Holy Fire Sect.

"allow!"

Duan Yonghui's majestic eyes looked around the hall, and finally his eyes fell on Duan Shouming: "Send the order, the gray-clothed bishop Duan Shouming will command the gray-clothed legion and the white-clothed legion to garrison the 'Magic Fire City'!"

Now the Holy Fire Church is panicking, and the only person he can trust is his clan member Duan Shouming.

"As you command!"

Duan Shouming did not refuse this dangerous mission. After all, the Holy Fire Sect belonged to the Duan family. As a clan member, his fortune and destiny had long been closely linked to the Holy Fire Sect.

Others can refuse, but he cannot avoid it.

That afternoon, the Holy City sent out two teams, one heading north with heavy gifts, and the other heading south with endless troops.

"The Heavenly Fire Domain belongs to the Holy Fire Sect, and no one can take it away!"

In the splendid palace, Duan Yonghui stood by the window, clenching his fists and swearing secretly.

"It's just my father's revenge, I can't avenge it for the time being!"

"However, please rest assured, father, I will definitely try my best to destroy the Qin Empire so that you can rest in peace."

Outside Zhanlin Shenhuo Town, the Qin army did not enter the city, but stationed outside the city. After all, there were too many corpses in the city, and it was not safe to live there, and it was easy to contract the plague.

In the vast open space, there are continuous large camps, with flags fluttering, and you can't see the edge at a glance.

Countless soldiers were wearing armor and patrolling back and forth in the camp, with their backs straight and their spears pointing to the sky, their sharp edges shining and their morale high.

Unparalleled evil spirits gathered in the sky above the camp, merging with each other to form a bloody wolf smoke that reached the top of Zi Ming.

It was as if there was a pillar of blood supporting the heaven and earth, which was very spectacular.
