King of the Fairy City

"Not good"

Looking at the huge crossbow arrows shooting at him, Ye Mo only had time to think of this.

The light crossbows, heavy crossbows, and giant siege crossbows of ordinary people are not very powerful in the eyes of immortal cultivators.

The giant crossbows suddenly displayed by this flying warship are obviously different. The siege crossbow arrows that are thousands of feet long are extremely fast and hit the array shield in an instant.

The first to be torn was the khaki shield blessed by many powerful gods.

Although it can block the wind and weaken the ice spirit, its defense ability is not strong and it was broken in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, the crossbow arrows continued to impact, and the translucent tenth-level array shook violently, and endless spiritual energy was continuously poured into it to maintain the stability of the shield.

However, this giant crossbow arrow seemed to have a special power that continuously disintegrated the power and spiritual energy of the array.

In the end, the crossbow arrow cut off the infusion of spiritual energy, and the array trembled a few times, then collapsed on the spot and continued to impact and fall.

A loud noise was heard, and Ye Mo stretched out his hand like a dragon, forcibly grabbed the spear-like crossbow arrow, stopped the momentum of the crossbow arrow, and caught it in his hand.

Other places were not so lucky, because all the ancestors gathered around Ye Mo, and no one could intercept the crossbow arrow.

After the remaining six giant crossbow arrows tore through the array shield, they continued to move forward and nailed down on the streets and buildings of the fairy city, instantly tearing through the fragile defense array inside, nailing and shocking more than a hundred people.

Such power stunned Ye Mo and others.

As strong as the tenth-level defense array, it couldn't stop this giant crossbow arrow at all, and even had the spare power to break some of the internal defenses.

Other fairy cities were also shocked and speechless. No one thought that there was such a siege weapon in the demon puppet army of the demon head, which easily broke through the fairy city, and before that, no one had heard of it.

"This"

Seeing the power of these crossbow arrows, Ye Mo and others turned their eyes to the crossbow arrows in Ye Mo's hand.

The crossbow arrow was as big as a spear, and the whole body was as black as ink, only the arrowhead was silver, and it always emitted a faint edge, so sharp that it could cut hair.

At first glance, it was no different from an ordinary giant crossbow arrow.

As long as you look carefully, you can see the subtle lines on it, which seemed to be a formation, and also like characters, faintly emitting evil power.

Ye Mo and others frowned and said nothing, while Wang Hu looked at the crossbow arrow eagerly, as if he saw a fairy weapon.

"City Lord, can you give this crossbow arrow to our formation hall? In the future, when we fight with other fairy cities, we will not worry about not having magic weapons to break the formation." Wang Hu finally couldn't help asking.

"Don't dream"

Ye Mo hadn't spoken yet, but he heard a scolding.

Everyone looked over and saw that it was Venerable Qianyuan who spoke.

Venerable Qianyuan said: "Even if this crossbow arrow is given to you, you can't study it, and it is even more impossible to exert the power of the magic puppet."

"Why is this?" Wang Hu was anxious.

Ever since knowing that Ye's Immortal City could participate in the Immortal City War, the Weapon Refining Hall has begun to study various magical instruments to attack other immortal cities.

Unfortunately, there has been no major progress.

Now seeing the power of this crossbow, Wang Hu is naturally eager.

Venerable Qianyuan shook his head and said, "You can't use it. I can even say that no one in our Immortal City Alliance can use this method."

As he spoke, he actually revealed a bit of sadness.

"What method?" Everyone was even more confused.

"This arrow is attached to the souls of ten thousand people"

Venerable Qianyuan's words were shocking.

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked and fell silent.

One arrow has ten thousand souls, and a hundred flying warships are a hundred arrows, which means a million souls.

Venerable Qianyuan sighed, "These souls are specially refined, with ordinary souls as raw materials, and after being refined by evil methods, they are extremely evil ghosts."

"Seal these ghosts in the crossbow arrows, and then use magic spells to make this kind of crossbow arrow that specifically breaks the spiritual energy formation."

After listening to Venerable Qianyuan's words, everyone felt a cold wind blowing behind their heads, and their bodies couldn't help but tremble.

It's too terrible, too crazy.

Just a few breaths just now, millions of souls evaporated directly, that is to say, millions of lives can't reincarnate, and they just disappear into thin air

"This demon is crazy..."

Wang Hu, Yang You and others are all mortals. At this moment, they are furious and hateful.

"Let's retreat."

At this time, Ye Mo suddenly said something incomprehensible.

Wang Hu and others were puzzled: "City Lord, what are you talking about? Why retreat?"

"Retreat, make way, and let the demon city pass." Ye Mo repeated word by word.

"Don't be confused, Ye boy. You must not retreat. What's the difference between doing so and betraying the human race?" Dongfang Nulei was also anxious and advised.

"Yes, City Lord, you can't retreat. We will go to shoot down the flying battleship in a while. We won't lose."

Du Qin and others also advised.

Everyone present, except for Venerable Qianyuan, has their fate tied to Ye's Immortal City. Naturally, they don't want Ye's Immortal City to betray the human race and be hunted down by the entire human race.

"Time is tight. I don't have time to explain more. Just do what I say, otherwise Ye's Immortal City will be in danger." Ye Mo's face was serious, and there was no sign of joking.

"Gao Jian, ring the Shocking Soul Seed and let our immortal soldiers withdraw immediately." Ye Mo turned his head and ordered Gao Jian.

"This..." Gao Jian hesitated.

Whatever Ye Mo asked him to do, he always executed it immediately, never hesitated or disobeyed.

But Ye Mo's order today was so absurd that he couldn't help but hesitate.

At this time, Venerable Qianyuan spoke again: "Young man Ye, have you thought it through?"

"Senior, I have thought it through very clearly, but I am not confused at all." Ye Mo was very determined.

Venerable Qianyuan just nodded slightly and said no more. This made Ye Mo more determined to retreat.

"Gao Jian, go and withdraw all the immortal soldiers. We believe he is the one."

At this time, Huangfu Yan also spoke.

Gao Jian opened his mouth wide and looked at Huangfu Yan in disbelief. He almost went crazy on the spot.

Ye Mo was confused and issued orders at random, but why did Huangfu Yan follow suit? Is this Ye's Immortal City still going to exist?

"Alas"

Gao Jian looked at Ye Mo, then at Huangfu Yan, and finally sighed heavily in resignation, turned around and left, and asked the immortal soldiers to retreat.

Soon, the soul-stirring bell of Ye's Immortal City rang loudly, and the sound was deafening and spread throughout the immortal city.

The immortal soldiers outside the immortal city thought that there was something wrong with their ears when they heard the sound of the Soul-Stirring Bell.

But the sound of the bell continued, and it clearly conveyed a message to them: retreat immediately.

The Soul-Stirring Bell is not only used to summon immortals and immortal soldiers, but also to recall immortal soldiers who are fighting at a very long distance, but it requires a special frequency to express the information.

The immortal soldiers of Ye's Immortal City who heard the bell were stunned for a moment, and then they turned around and ran away, ignoring the immortal soldiers of other immortal cities.

Seeing this situation, the immortal soldiers of the other fourteen immortal cities were dumbfounded, and they all looked towards their own immortal cities, hoping to hear the bell ring, even once.

Unfortunately, their hopes were doomed to fail.

Under the iron law of the Immortal City Alliance, no one, let alone any immortal city, dared to openly withdraw from the battlefield.

The actions of Ye's Immortal City caused other immortal cities to boil, and the noise kept echoing over the immortal city.

In Chen's Immortal City, which is far away from Ye's Immortal City.

The immortals and the immortal soldiers of lower realms were all stunned when they saw the immortal soldiers of Ye's Immortal City retreating, and then they started to discuss loudly.

Moreover, there were very few people who hoped that Chen's Immortal City would also retreat.

Isn't it just to make way for the devil? Just let it go.

On the top of the city, a group of young men and women lined up on the top of the city, looking at the retreating Ye's Immortal City with doubtful eyes.

"This... Is there really someone who dares to retreat? Are they going to give up their rights?"

The young man in golden armor was stunned.

The young man in white also showed doubts, then he chuckled and shook his head and said: "Retreat if you want to, you are just cowardly rats. If we get through the difficulties, the lost resources will be found from this Ye's Immortal City."

"The immortal city that betrayed the human race, I think other immortal cities will also be very interested. I didn't expect that there would be one less competitor before the Immortal City War officially started."

At this time, in Tan's Immortal City.

Since the ancestors of the Ye family immortal city destroyed the Tan family immortal city, the people of the Tan family immortal city have been almost scattered. They finally gathered a little, but now they see the withdrawal of the Ye family immortal city, and they began to disperse again.

Everyone is afraid of death, and only with courage can one face death calmly.

The immortal soldiers of the Ye family immortal city are obviously very courageous, which is why the cohesion is strong enough, while the Tan family immortal city is obviously not as good in this regard.

Under the fear of death, a mutiny occurred in the Tan family immortal city.

Tan Xiyou could only cast a spell to cut off the waves of sound, and looked at the Ye family immortal city with resentful eyes: "Ye Mo, it's you again..."

After hundreds of flying warships broke through the defense of the immortal city, they did not reason with the immortal cities at all. The huge warships directly advanced into the immortal city, opened gaps on the ship, and flew out one by one, rushing towards the immortals and low-level immortal soldiers in the immortal city.

As a last resort, the battlefield of both sides moved to the sky between the immortal cities and outside the immortal cities.

Countless demon puppets drove warships to charge around, and magic lights shot out one after another. The immortal cities had never experienced such a war and had no experience. For a moment, the immortal cities were in chaos and the flames of war spread everywhere in the city.

Because Ye's Immortal City retreated early, it left when the flying warship was about to enter the immortal city, and the flying warship did not entangle, so it was not invaded.

The seven flying warships that originally surrounded Ye's Immortal City immediately joined the other batches of flying warships to bombard and kill each immortal city crazily.

"City Lord, if we retreat directly like this, will this make the Venerable dissatisfied?"

Wang Hu, Yang You, Liu Shiyuan and others were worried again.

Huangfu Yan looked at the departing flying warship, then looked at Ye Mo, lowered his eyes and thought.

Ye Mo laughed loudly, turned to look at Venerable Qian Yuan, and said, "Venerable, we should understand the situation and take the initiative to retreat. Is this also a test for us from the Immortal Alliance?"

Venerable Qian Yuan smiled but said nothing, but this look clearly indicated his acquiescence.

Ye Mo stopped smiling and sighed with a wry smile, "It seems that this war is entirely up to us to decide on our own."

When Venerable Qian Yuan said that the Immortal City Alliance Headquarters ordered fifteen immortal cities to intercept the demon, Ye Mo had already become suspicious.

No matter how incompetent the Immortal City Alliance Headquarters was, it was a situation where the aristocratic families and the sects were in power, and no one could cover the sky with one hand.

Since the Alliance Headquarters was not crazy, then there must be other purposes for doing so.

Until Ye Mo heard what Venerable Qian Yuan said, he had some guesses in his heart.

The Flying Demon City was so terrifying that fifteen immortal cities could not resist it at all, even if there was no demon directly participating in the battle.

This would create an irreconcilable contradiction with the alliance's orders, which was no different from forcing fifteen immortal cities to die.

At this moment, Ye Mo thought of the words of Venerable Qian Yuan again, and began to speculate on the real intentions of the Immortal Alliance's top leaders.

They couldn't force fifteen immortal cities, so many younger disciples to die, and force fifteen immortal cities to fight against the demon's Feitian Demon City.

After thinking about it, the only way Ye Mo could think of was Venerable Qian Yuan's words.

"The immortal city has a high degree of autonomy. If it retreats, it is also okay?"

Ye Mo couldn't help but think so.

Under normal circumstances, retreating on the battlefield without orders is a great sin of betraying the human race.

Venerable Qian Yuan said that the alliance headquarters ordered the immortal cities to intercept the demon's army. If they defected, it would be a great sin of betraying the human race, and they would be severely punished after the war.

But this time, in order to test the fifteen immortal cities, the Immortal City Alliance issued an unimaginable challenging task.

It is true that the alliance headquarters ordered the immortal cities to intercept the demon army, but it is obviously not a suicide mission. It is meaningless to do so.

When necessary, you can take the initiative to retreat strategically and avoid... and finally achieve the purpose of delaying and wearing down the demon army. It is not a treason.

As we all know, the demon went to the South Demon to develop power and restore the Heavenly Demon Alliance.

The purpose of the immortal city interception is to make this plan fail.

Even if you take the initiative to retreat and then send a small group of immortal soldiers to harass the demon puppet army and hinder their development, you can still achieve the purpose of restricting the demon.

Thinking of this, Ye Mo is already fully confident that the intention of the alliance leaders is not to die now. It is to test the ability of the city lords.

What do the immortal alliance leaders want to test and see?

Wisdom, scheming, and extraordinary overall view

After all, the human race is the enemy of the entire demon race. It is obviously not enough to just have the strength of cultivation and fight hard.

The leaders created this dilemma to test the overall view, strategy, and scheming of the leaders of the immortal cities. In an extremely unfavorable situation, think about how to deal with the devil and the top leaders.

Under such a situation, the immortal cities are obviously not opponents. They can retreat temporarily and then deal with the devil to make up for their mistakes.

After guessing the intentions of those old foxes in the upper echelons, Ye Mo couldn't help sweating and asked: "Senior Qianyuan, what if the immortal cities did not retreat and fought the devil to the death?"

Venerable Qianyuan responded lightly and said: "The Immortal City Alliance Headquarters will grant you the title of demon-killing warriors for future generations to admire and worship."

Ye Mo rolled his eyes and wanted to shout to those old foxes: I, Ye's Immortal City, will admire you for the rest of my life.

Seeing that Gao Jian, Du Qin and others still didn't understand, Ye Mo sighed and slowly told the intentions of the upper echelons, which made a group of people stunned.

Wang Hu directly cursed.

Everyone was in a state of confusion when they heard Wang Hu's curse. If Ye Mo hadn't seen through the intentions of the higher-ups, they would have perished this time.

"Don't they feel bad that all fifteen immortal cities are destroyed?" Ye Mo asked with a wry smile.

Venerable Qian Yuan said, "It's not a pity for a brave but incompetent person to die. Do you think the strongest immortal city is simply determined by who has the strongest power? This is impossible. The immortal city war is all about winning, and no matter what means are used."

"During the immortal city war, you can do whatever you want, as long as you can strengthen your strength and win the 'strongest immortal city'. This competition is not only about strength, but also about many other things, and there are countless dangers in the dark."

"If you don't have enough strategy, scheming, and overall view, it's better to die here and create advantages for other immortal cities to contain the devil."

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other and was speechless.

The idea of ​​the higher-ups was certainly correct, but it was still difficult for everyone to accept it, especially Wang Hu, Yang You and others who followed Ye Mo all the way.

Previously, everyone was gloating over the misfortunes of the other fourteen immortal cities, but after hearing what Venerable Qianyuan said, everyone couldn't help but feel a little sympathy.
