Sunset and dusk, Zhensha Pass.

The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the majestic wall, and the black rock bricks glow with a metallic luster. True Script Runes engraved on the surface quietly emerges, looking extremely mysterious.

The heavily armed Battle Cultivator patrolled back and forth on the wide city wall, watching Gobi Desert in front of him with vigilance.

"What's that?"

Suddenly, a Battle Cultivator stopped and focused his eyes on the end of the horizon.

I saw that the line connecting the sky and the desert seemed to be ignited with blazing flames, and large swaths of fire clouds rose into the air, emitting thousands of rays of light.

There were more and more burning clouds, occupying a large area of the sky in the blink of an eye.

And quickly approaching Zhensha Pass!

Such a strange scene naturally attracted the attention of the Battle Cultivators guarding the wall.

Everyone instinctively felt the danger, and the runes on the surface of the city wall lit up one by one.

This is the characteristic of opening the city protection circle.

Under normal circumstances, in order to reduce the consumption of spiritual veins and spiritual stones, the core of the protective array arranged underground in Daying City is in a dormant state, and only part of the auxiliary array maintains low-level operation.

However, once danger occurs or is attacked, this large and powerful magic circle will automatically open.

This highly spiritual defense mechanism is composed of the magic circle Array Spirit and the Battle Cultivator who guard Zhensha Pass.

That is to say, when a large number of Battle Cultivator are aware of the danger, without the permission of Grand Commander or Grand Protector Heavenly Master, the city protection array will enter the defensive state by itself.

And the intensity of the threat increases simultaneously!

The one who truly masters this magic circle is actually Array Spirit!

As soon as the magic circle was opened, Battle Cultivators felt safe, and everyone performed their duties and maintained their positions.

Be ready to fight at any time.

But the expected attack did not appear. The fire clouds in the sky spread hundreds of miles before stopping, and golden Udumbara flowers fell one after another.

These Udumbara flower do not really exist, but are manifested by magic power.

They fell silently on the barren and arid land, disappeared into the sand in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, large expanses of green grass and wild flowers sprouted.

Due to the extremely large number of Udumbara flower, large areas of green space have been formed.

The Gobi, which originally had little life, turned into a grassland!

At the same time, bursts of Sanskrit singing floated in the ears of all Battle Cultivators!

Tranquility, serenity, compassion, compassion...

The power contained in this voice makes people want to put down their weapons and kneel on the ground to worship.

"Bald thief!"

Some Battle Cultivator with strong willpower spit out a few mouthfuls of phlegm with disdain, going in the left ear and out the right ear, without any effect.

But there were also a few Battle Cultivator who showed signs of struggle, with a little cold sweat breaking out on their foreheads.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At this moment, a deep and powerful drum sound suddenly sounded from behind the city wall.

The sound of drums is majestic and upright, which makes people feel passionate.

Easily overpowering Tianwai Fan Sing!

Many Battle Cultivator who were almost bewitched suddenly woke up.

Grand Commander Kou Shihai appeared on the city wall.

As soon as he received the news, he rushed over and observed the strange phenomena in the western sky under the protection of dozens of monks.

The scene in front of him made the eighth layer of Purple Mansion great monk frown.

There is no doubt that only Western Regions Buddhist sect can do such a trick to Evil Spirits, Sand People does not have this ability.

The problem is that Western Regions Buddhist sect has always claimed to be aloof from the world. On the surface, it never participated in the war between the Sand Tribe and Daying City, and always showed a compassionate face.

Although everyone knows Buddhist Sect's virtue, Kou Shihai can't figure out why the other party puts on such a useless posture. Could it be that he has eaten too much sand melon?

Despite this, Kou Shihai still ordered all personnel to be on alert and urgently dispatched an elite group of Daoist soldiers to the city wall.

Daoist soldiers are the Daoist protectors of the Daoist sect. They are usually carefully selected from Battle Cultivator, practice battle formations and secret techniques, and are equipped with high-end weapons Law Artifact, specially used for combat.

If compared with the ordinary Battle Cultivator, then a Daoist soldier can defeat three or four times the Battle Cultivator of the same level.

The Daoist soldiers formed a battle formation and could even cross the border to kill the enemy!

Just as Kou Shihai was dispatching his troops, a golden Udumbara flower slowly floated down towards the city wall.

It was actually not blocked by the magic barrier of the city protection circle.

Kou Shihai's eyes were focused, and he reached out and took the Udumbara flower into his palm.

The moment I picked it up, this epiphyllum turned into a thin piece of gold paper, with two vermilion seal characters of "life and death" imprinted on it, as well as the stamp of ""!

Kou Shihai squinted his eyes, Divine Sense scanned the golden paper and immediately knew the contents.

At this moment, the fire clouds that covered the sky quickly receded, and the green grass and wild flowers on the Gobi ground withered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The wind blew and turned it into ashes.

The Sanskrit sounds and Udumbara flower falling from the sky all disappeared.

Kou Shihai waved his hand to signal everyone to stay vigilant, and at the same time communicated to Array Spirit that the alert level had been lowered.

Daying City's city protection array is activated once, even if it is a medium or low-level defense, a large amount of spiritual stones will be consumed.

Once the danger is over, there is no need to waste it anymore.

The next moment, Grand Commander rose into the air and turned into a stream of light flying towards the Seven Star Pavilion.

On top of the Seven Star Pavilion, Kou Shihai met Wang Chen.

When the city protection array was activated just now, Wang Chen was practicing in the quiet room.

Sensing the warning signal from Array Spirit, he immediately stopped practicing and rushed to the top of the Seven Star Pavilion to take charge.

As a result, the enemy didn't come, but Kou Shihai came.

"Junior Brother Wang..."

Kou Shihai didn't talk nonsense and directly handed Wang Chen a golden note and said with a smile, "You made those sand-eating guys anxious."

Wang Chen took the golden note and read the contents, then realized what was going on!

During the recent period, he was in charge of the Seven Star Pavilion, practicing Thunderclap Sword Technique day and night.

Thunderclap Sword Technique had actually been promoted to the level of Great Perfection level by Wang Chen, but now he was using the power of the magic circle and the power of Upper Clarity Qiankun Mirror to show terrifying lethality with this low-level swordsmanship.

Those Sand People who have entered the hundred-mile range of Zhensha Pass, as long as they are targeted by Wang Chen, they will all be killed instantly with one sword.

And as his mastery of the power of the magic circle and the treasure mirror deepened, the range of the flying sword attack became wider and wider.

One hundred miles, one hundred and fifty miles, two hundred miles...

It caused panic among several Sand People tribes, and they all wanted to abandon their homes and migrate away!

The arrival of this golden letter, or the invitation to challenge, shows that Sand People's top management can no longer sit still and wants to deal with this scourge of him.

A life and death duel?

Wang Chen smiled, "Senior Brother Kou, can I refuse?"

Kou Shihai hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Of course!"

Wang Chen was keenly aware of his reaction and couldn't help but ask, "Is there any problem?"

Kou Shihai smiled bitterly, "It's true."
