Chapter 1021 Offensive and Defensive Battle (Thank you for the Black Eyes rewarding leader~)
The next day, the sword contest between Taixu Sect and Tianjian Sect began.
There are still crowds of people in the Daoshan Outdoor Field, but there are fewer monks watching the battle than before.
They felt bored.
The strongest team of Taixu Sect lost one after another in the competition of the local bureau, performed extremely poorly, and had almost no outstanding achievements.
Many people no longer have expectations.
What''s more, this sword competition is an offensive and defensive battle, and it is against the top sword cultivation sect - the Tianjian Sect.
The ancient Tianjian Sect inherits the Tianjian Sect’s ancient Tianjian Skills.
This Tian Jian Art is also one of the best sword art techniques in Gan Xuezhou’s territory, and its power is quite terrifying.
Let the Tianjian Sect lead the attack and let its sword energy kill. Looking at the entire Ganxuezhou community, even the Dragon Ding Sect of the four major sects and the Vajra Sect of the eight major sects, these two body refining sects that are famous for their defense may not be able to bear it.
Not to mention the mere Taixu Sect.
There is no truly top physical cultivation in Taixu Sect.
In addition, there is also an ink painting that "breaks at the touch".
In the minds of most monks, this is a sword competition with almost no chance of winning or no highlights.
Taixu Sect has a disadvantage in the game, and if you have worse or worse, you will definitely lose.
Of course, there are still some of the audience who are looking forward to it.
But their expectation was that they hoped that the Tianjian Sect could capture the flaws of ink painting. In this sword contest, one sword would kill ink painting.
This is a simple expectation.
"I want to see the ink painting with my own eyes and die once."
From the Xuan character game, no, and even from the preliminary round of the Huang character game, this has become an obsession in the hearts of many monks who watch the game.
Their other things are not asking for, just because they are hung up by this anger, so they can come to see Mo Hua for the sword.
There is no way, this brat Mo Hua has done so many evil deeds and is too annoying.
If you don’t die once, it’s hard to make people understand their thoughts.
…
On the high platform of Shangguan’s family.
Yu''er also lowered her head, occasionally reluctant to raise her head and glanced at Fang Tian''s painting.
He was a little afraid to watch.
In the Xuanzi Bureau’s sword debate, Brother Mo made a group of "big idiots" play around with him, and he was very happy to watch.
But Brother Mo has been losing in the swordsmanship of Dizi Bureau.
He was feeling uncomfortable when he watched it, and he really didn''t want to continue watching it.
But this is Brother Mo''s game, and he is reluctant to watch it.
What if I can win?
If he doesn''t look at it, wouldn''t it be a pity?
Yu''er frowned, grabbed the corner of her clothes, and had her little face tense, forcing herself to see Fang Tian''s painting.
In addition to Yu''er, Wen Renwan, Gu Changhuai, Zhang Lan, Murong Caiyun, Hua Qianqian and other "relatives and friends" of ink paintings, they have a little calmer mentality.
At the beginning, it was a bit heartbreaking, but as I lost, I got used to it.
Victory and defeat are common in military affairs.
Although they hope that ink paintings will win, they also know that manpower is sometimes exhausted, and some things are impossible.
After all, this is a swordsmanship conference, and there are countless geniuses.
It is already very amazing that ink painting can reach this point.
Therefore, they came to see it just to support ink painting.
What''s more, they can see more or less clearly the situation of this sword contest, so they are mentally prepared and do not have too much expectations.
The situation quickly verified most people''s conjectures.
As soon as Taixu Sect opened, it was defeated step by step again.
This is an offensive and defensive battle, in the form of reference, which is the "siege war" and "defense war" in the Taoist war.
Tianjian Sect attacked the city, and Taixu Gate defended the city.
Of course, the form has been "simplified".
After all, there are only five people in the sword competition. Unlike the grand offensive and defensive battles that involve thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of monks in the real Taoist war, it is just a simple "preface" that allows disciples to compete and practice through sword competition.
There is no real "city".
Only in the swordsmanship field, a "city camp" was built, separated by the city walls, and a "city lord" statue was built in the inner city.
To attack one side of the city, you must break the outer city, enter the inner city, and eventually destroy the statue of the city lord.
To defend the city, you need to guard the statue.
Siege battles have time limits.
Within two hours, the city was captured and the siege won. Keep the city and win if you defend the city.
And Taixu Sect needs to defend for two hours under the sword energy of the Tianjian Sect.
This is not that simple yet.
The so-called guarding the outer city, simply put, is to guard the "city gate".
There are two gates in the outer city, and people must be guarded by them.
There is a city gate in the inner city, and people must be kept to guard.
In this way, the manpower is scattered, which is even more fatal for a team like Taixu Sect that is "incomplete" in teams.
The key is ink painting.
This situation further exposes the disadvantages of Mo Hua as a "spiritual cultivation".
Before the sword contest began, someone saw this: "In this kind of situation, this ink painting is useless."
"I can''t imagine what he can do..."
"Siege battle, confrontation head-on, there is no room for opportunity..."
"No matter how good his concealment skills are, others ignore him at all."
"No matter how good his body skills are, he can only escape, but this is defending the city. Where can he escape?"
"The low-end five-element spell cannot resist the sword energy of the Tianjian Sect."
"Even if he goes to block his little crisp body, it''s just a matter of a sword..."
"It''s useless to both sides. I think he might as well squat in the inner city as soon as the battle starts, and rely on his teammates to delay time..."
"Anyway, he won or lost, nothing happened..."
Someone joked.
When the debate begins, the images on Fang Tian’s paintings appear.
Everyone found that Mo Hua was really as they said, and she ignored everything. She squatted behind the wall of the inner city, carrying everyone on her back, and sneaked in. She didn''t know what she was doing, but she looked a little "despicable"...
This has aroused public anger again.
"No... I was just talking and having fun. Did he really squat in the inner city?"
"My teammates are fighting hard, is he hiding his life?"
"At least you can throw a few fireballs out. What should you do if you hide here and do something secretly?"
"Are you greedy for life and fear of death?"
…
As the discussion was full of discussion, several sharp-eyed and careful monks said:
"Is this ink painting a formation set up, right?"
Someone sneered: "How much can it cost to set up a formation?"
“It’s all ready.”
"The formations for the sword contest are all drawn in advance, reviewed by the elders, and then brought in. Just set them up when the battle is about to be put. As for letting him squat there and fiddle for a long time..."
The formation is powerful, but the preparation time is too long.
In history, when monks fight, formations must be prepared in advance and laid out in advance.
Otherwise, if you prepare the formation before the battle, the daylily will be cold.
The Sword Contest is no exception.
Mo Hua squatted there, "fixing" for a long time, saying that it was a formation, but when others looked at it, this was a "mixing craftsman", and it was a complete "mixing".
"He is so passive and lazy, and Taixu Sect really doesn''t care about it?"
"Can Taixu Sect endure this?"
"I think he is not the illegitimate son of the head, but the illegitimate son of his illegitimate son, otherwise he would not have spoiled him like this..."
…
The sword debate continues.
Taixu Sect is originally at a disadvantage in its strength.
The competition system is also a disadvantage.
In the situation where inferiority is worse, there is also a certain "princeling" who is "passive and lazy in the battle".
The battle situation is naturally self-evident.
The sword energy of the Tianjian Sect was like a rainbow and had a power that broke through the two city gates one after another, passed through the outer city, and rushed towards the inner city.
This process is simple and easy and natural.
Linghu laughed and others, trying their best to resist.
But their efforts, except for delaying for some time, did not cause any turmoil.
Soon, they fell down step by step and were forced to retreat to the inner city.
Five disciples of Tianjian Sect gathered outside the inner city gate.
This is the last defense.
As long as you break through the city gate in front of you, attack the inner city, enter the hall, kill all the disciples of the Taixu Sect who are blocking the road, and then cut off the statue of the city lord, you will take down this sword contest.
The Tianjian Sect won another game and took another step towards the position of the leader of the swordsmanship, one of the four major sects.
This is another crushing victory.
"Taixu Sect, I''m going to lose again..."
This idea also emerged in the minds of most monks outside the field.
And it is becoming more and more natural to lose.
There was no ups and downs.
Some monks outside the field sighed and began to feel bored.
"This kind of sword contest looks really a waste of time..."
"I can guess what''s next with my eyes closed..."
"It''s nothing more than that the disciples of the Tianjian Sect broke through the city gate and rushed in. After a fierce battle, they killed Linghu Xiao and others..."
"That boy from Mo Hua pinched the jade again and ran away."
"Then the Tianjian Sect cut off the statue of the city lord and it was over..."
"The gap between the four major sects and the Taixu Sect is still too big, and it is impossible for the Taixu Sect to win..."
Shangguan family’s observation platform.
Yu''er was dejected and her little face was full of loss.
Wen Renwan touched Yu''er''s head and comforted him in a low voice.
Zhang Lan and others also looked a little sad.
The atmosphere was a little low for a moment.
In the sword field, the disciples of the Tianjian Sect had already activated the Tianxing Sword, and the pure white sword energy slashed towards the city gate with amazing force.
Cheng Mo, Situ Jian and Ouyang Xuan took action to stop them.
Linghu Xiao also activated Chongxu''s sword energy, which offset the sword energy of the disciple of Tianjian Sect.
But the sword energy of the Tianjian Sect was too heavy to kill. The five people joined forces, and the sword energy inherited the heavenly energy, which was mighty and could not resist the front.
Cheng Mo and others retreated one after another.
Linghu laughed alone and couldn''t roar.
The pure white Tianxing sword energy slashed on the city gate one by one, as if it was slashing on the hearts of the monks related to the Taixu Sect.
Every sword makes my heart tremble.
Once the city gate is broken, the game will be over.
Everything that follows is meaningless.
Many people do not want this city gate to be broken, nor do they want the Taixu Gate to lose. But more people wait for the city gate to be broken.
The one who was waiting for was the disciples of Taixu Sect, who were cut down under the sword one by one.
Time passes by little by little in this tense entanglement.
The disciples of the Tianjian Sect are still using their sword energy to constantly chop the sect.
The city gate is still supporting it with "hard work".
But after a long time, the city gate still did not break...
On the watch stage, everyone began to look at each other, feeling something was wrong.
After a while, the disciples of the Tianjian Sect were still chopping the sect.
The city gate, which silently endured all the sword energy of the Tianxing, seemed to be about to be divided into pieces in the next moment, but after a long time, there was still no movement.
This city gate is like "iron".
Now everyone''s faces changed.
“What’s the thing…”
"Isn''t something wrong with this city gate?"
"It''s not that something is wrong with the city gate, it''s the formation on the gate... It seems something is wrong?"
There were foreign monks who were proficient in formations or formation elders of some sects who carefully looked at the city gate, and the formation light that was hidden under the dense sword energy.
After looking closely, someone looked shocked and suddenly stood up and said:
"High-level formation!"
"When Taixu Sect discussing swords, are you using high-level formations?!"
The scene was quiet for a moment, and then a sensation broke out.
It stirs up a thousand waves like a stone.
The crowd was completely noisy.
"Second-grade high-level formation?!"
"What a joke?"
"Isn''t the limited formation of sword-making only a second-grade mid-level?"
"This is not in line with the rules..."
"Cheating?"
"Taixu Sect cheats?"
“Outstanding…”
Some people questioned one after another, "When did he bring in this formation?"
"The rules for the discussion of swordsmanship are strict. If you bring something into the market, the elders will personally check it. It is impossible to allow any favoritism and fraud."
"Taixu Sect... bribed Elder Ludao Mountain?"
"Taixu Sect is so capable?"
…
And the one who can''t sit still than the monks who can''t sit still on the outside is the elders of Lundao Mountain.
Those who can be elders in Lundao Mountain are generally older, experienced, prestige, and fair behavior.
This job is both decent and leisurely.
Originally, they were sitting and drinking tea, watching the sword contest leisurely.
As a result, as soon as the high-level formation appeared, some elders were really shocked and the cups in their hands were crushed.
“What happened!”
"It''s over, why did you let this kid bring the high-level formation in?"
"Ancestor''s rules are broken..."
"Who checked him?"
"I''m so confused..."
An elder stubbornly said, "Don''t talk nonsense. When he entered the field, I searched clearly, and there was no high-level formation."
"Then where did his formation come from?"
"Quick, check..."
So someone began to rewind Fang Tian’s paintings, starting from the sword contest, one after another, to see what Ink Painting did.
In order to avoid suspicion and ensure fairness and selflessness, there are no understatement operations.
This inverted picture can also be seen by monks who are watching the battle outside the field.
A small screen popped up on Fang Tian’s painting, and the ink painting began to enter the scene, and all the movements were played back.
Everyone stopped watching the sword discussion, stared at the big eyes and concentrated on watching the "replay" of ink painting.
The picture quickly flowed, and soon it was frozen in the most "suspicious" scene.
Mo Hua squatted in the corner of the wall, facing away from everyone, secretly touching her, not knowing what she was fiddling with.
"Hurry, change the angle." Elder Lundaoshan ordered.
So the picture turned and the front face of the ink painting was shown.
What he was doing was also clearly seen.
Everyone in Lundaoshan was suffocated.
Then there was an uproar in an instant.
At this moment, they finally clearly saw what Mo Hua was doing in a squatting in the corner of the wall, secretly stumbled...
He is indeed "fixing" the formation.
But it is not a formation.
Instead, you are drawing a formation!
In the sword contest, when the geniuses between the two sides confronted each other, they personally drew the formation!
Sword Contest, no second-grade advanced formations are allowed.
Then he did it himself and drew a high-level formation on the spot!
Everyone was speechless for a moment and didn''t know what to say.
After a moment of silence, some people were puzzled: "No... He drew a second-grade high-level formation, where did the formation media come from?"
Someone saw it: "It was temporarily removed from the other formations he brought in."
“…”
"What about his pen?"
"Sword discussions allow for carrying spiritual weapons. He did not bring weapons, so he only brought a pattern pen."
"The array pen is the weapon of the formation division..."
"Where is Ling Mo? Where did he get the Mo?"
"have no idea…"
Someone shook his head, and most monks were also confused.
But some monks who participated in the sword contest and had a more detailed study of the rules explained:
"Sword Disciples, you can choose some ''miscellaneous things'' and bring them in. Lingmo is the one in the miscellaneous things."
"No..." Someone puzzled, "Why should I put spiritual ink in the miscellaneous things? How can spiritual ink be considered miscellaneous things? Which **** set the rules? Do you have some common sense?"
“On Daoshan Ancestor…”
The monk slapped his mouth before: "I''m sorry, I''m so mean. The ancestor did the right thing... Ling Mo should put it in the miscellaneous things."
Someone concluded: "So... Mo Hua, this guy, took out the array media, brought his own array pen, and then used the spiritual ink in the miscellaneous objects to do it himself, drew a second-grade high-level formation and laid it on the city gate?"
"Can you still play like this?"
“Is this reasonable?”
"How did this kid''s head grow? Can he exploit the loopholes to this point?"
"This is not a loophole, it is clearly a cheating?"
"In the sword contest, how can we play with high-level formations? What''s not cheating?"
“You and I don’t count.”
“At least, it is indeed in compliance with the rules.”
"Let''s talk about it later. Now we''ll look at the sword contest... Although the high-level formation is powerful, we are facing the five geniuses of the Tianjian Sect. A high-level formation. When facing the five geniuses, who will win or lose, it''s not certain?"
"Don''t take advantage of the loopholes. If you use high-level formations and lose in the end, that''s embarrassing..." Someone sneered.
Some people were dissatisfied, "You underestimate high-level formations too much. That is a high-level formation, and it is from the hands of Mo Hua. It must be the top nineteen-patterned formation. Are you kidding about this level of formation?"
…
As everyone was talking.
In the sword discussion field, the disciples of the Tianjian Sect also realized something was wrong.
"High-level formation?"
The leading genius of Tianjian Sect, who was tall and tall, frowned, and then said in a deep voice, "So what about the high-level formation? I want to see today whether your formation is strong or the sword energy of my Tianjian Sect is sharp?"
"kill!"
The other four people also responded, "Kill!"
The five people no longer had any worries and no longer had any reservations. As the spiritual power surged, they urged their sword energy to the extreme.
The more sharp aura of the heavenly sword slashed on the city gate.
Even with the blessing of high-level formations, cracks appeared in the city gate, which were shaking and sand and dust fell down.
But ink painting is not in a hurry.
Linghu Xiao and the others just followed Mo Hua''s instructions and went out to harass him from time to time.
Before, they wanted to resist the disciples of the Tianjian Sect and protect the city gate.
But now, with the blessing of high-level formations, the city gate can resist the disciples of the Tianjian Sect by themselves. They just need to harass them from time to time and relieve the pressure on the city gate.
This is much easier.
As the two sides were entangled, a series of sword energy in the sky still slashed on the city gate one after another, and was then absorbed by the high-level golden stone formation.
Although the high-level golden and stone formation is strong in defense, it is impossible for it to be attacked by the geniuses of the four major sects to last for too long.
The disciples of Tianjian Sect, the sword energy was slashed down with unremitting sword energy.
The cracks in the formation are gradually increasing.
The city gate also feels quite shaky.
Seeing that the formation was about to break, the disciples of the Tianjian Sect were very excited, "Hurry up, make a big splash, break the formation and break the city gate!"
"yes!"
They worked together to inspire the sword energy and continue to break through the city gate.
And the emperor will live up to those who work hard.
After a series of attacks on the sword energy, the light on the city gate was dim and the formation patterns were broken.
The high-level golden stone formation was indeed broken by the disciples of the Tianjian Sect.
The disciples of Tianjian Sect were delighted.
Seeing this, the monks watching the battle nodded and exclaimed:
"I am worthy of being the genius of the Tianjian Sect. It is impossible for them to be able to do with a high-level formation..."
But as the formation on the city gate faded and was about to disappear, Mo Hua was slow and reached out to pat the wall.
In an instant, the light shone brightly.
Another brand new high-level golden stone formation was activated.
The shaking city gate, with the blessing of the formation, instantly became "indestructible" again.
The audience who had just praised the disciples of the Tianjian Sect felt that they were blocking their chests in one breath.
The geniuses of the Tianjian Sect’s geniuses were completely wiped out.
Looking at the "city gate" flowing in front of them, their faces turned pale and their mouths were bitter.
A high-level formation did not stop them.
What about those two pairs?
Are there really only two pairs?
