Chapter 172 is heating up!

Jiangxi Chief Minister's Office, the mountains where the 721 mineral deposits are located.

After the bombing of the previous catastrophe, the entire mountain range had been almost flattened, and the vegetation was burned away by fire and thunder.

However, at this time, this desolate land suddenly began to sprout in large numbers again, growing crazily at an astonishing speed.

Vibrant to the extreme!

Xiao San, Shi Hao and Tang Yi were meditating on the edge of the mountain range.

They all took a long breath, the breath on their bodies changed, and their faces had a look of joy.

Just by obtaining such a ray of world spirit origin, in this short period of time, the strength of the three of them has all broken through Kaiyuan, reached the realm of God Transformation, and has risen all the way to the peak of God Transformation.

If you go one step further, you can reach the realm of refining the void.

Moreover, this is only a little refined.

With their current strength, they cannot complete the refining process at once.

The rest of the original power is all latent in their bodies, and can be slowly absorbed and refined in the future.

"Go to the north immediately."

The moment the three of them opened their eyes, Zhu Xiongying's voice sounded in their ears.

After receiving the message from His Majesty the Emperor, the three of them immediately stood up.

Subconsciously looking towards the center of the mountain range, they found that His Majesty the Emperor, who was originally cultivating in the hidden mineral deposits, was already above the mountain range. The three of them were even more shocked by the vitality of the wilderness.

It was obvious that before they closed their eyes, this place had been completely burned to the ground.

"According to the order!"

Don't hesitate at all.

Xiao San quickly accepted the order and saluted.

Then he took Shi Hao and Tang Yi and left without looking back.

'Try it.'

Completely out of an attempt, the long sword on Xiao San's waist came out of its sheath with a clang, hovered in the air, suddenly grew several times larger, and was suddenly suspended in the air.

Xiao San's eyes suddenly lit up, he jumped up and stepped directly on the sword.

A ‘whoosh’ sound.

The sword rises through the wind.

If you break through Kaiyuan, you will be able to fly with weapons.

When Shi Hao and Tang Yi saw Xiao San's imperial weapon flying, their eyes showed eagerness to try it.

Xiao San turned around in mid-air and returned to the two of them.

"Whatever you do in a daze, come up."

Xiao San glanced at these two little brats and naturally knew what they were thinking.

"My weapon control skills were personally taught by His Majesty. I will teach you when I have time in the future."

As soon as the words came out, their eyes lit up and they jumped on Xiao San's sword one after another.

Over the center of the mountain range.

Zhu Xiongying opened his eyes slightly, looked at the three people leaving with his sword, and closed his eyes again.

"The Five Elements are the foundation of heaven and earth. All things in life are derived from the Five Elements. Four elements have been completed, and the last one is still missing."

The closer the small world in his body came to perfection, the more concentrated Zhu Xiongying became, to the point where he couldn't even escape his spiritual consciousness and had to concentrate it all in the sea of ​​consciousness to construct the core of the laws of the small world.

"At the peak of transformation, it should be helpful for the three of them to go to the north."

What Zhu Xiongying can do now is to let Xiao San and others go to the northern border. Their cultivation at the peak of divine transformation can already influence the situation on the battlefield to a certain extent.

What he has to do is to seize the time and complete the last remaining line.

The inability to dissipate his spiritual consciousness means that he cannot know the current situation of the Ming Dynasty. This is an intolerable thing for Zhu Xiongying.

……………………

Yingtian Mansion, Zhengyang Gate of the inner city.

Xu Huizu and Tie Xuan stared forward.

A quarter of an hour ago, Zhu Quan's follow-up army finally arrived, and all the hundreds of thousands of troops were concentrated at Zhengyang Gate.

This means that Zhu Quan's attack direction is Zhengyangmen.

From an offensive and defensive perspective, Zhengyang Gate is not the best position to attack, but Zhengyang Gate is the main entrance to the imperial city and the most symbolic gate. As long as Zhengyang Gate is broken, the army can kill it in a quarter of an hour.

Under the imperial city.

"He wanted to show off his strength."

There was anger in Xu Huizu's voice. When Zhu Quan attacked Zhengyang Gate, he obviously didn't take him seriously as the city's defender.

"here we go."

Tie Xuan whispered quietly.

Sure enough, hundreds of thousands of troops gathered outside the city and began to launch a fierce attack on Zhengyang Gate.

Xu Huizu remained silent and pulled out the long knife from his waist.

In the battle to guard the capital, he has no intention of retreating. Even if he dies on Zhengyang Gate, he will not take a step back!

At this time, inside the Forbidden City.

Lao Zhu and A Biao, father and son, stood in the wide courtyard outside Fengtian Hall.

"Father, Old Seventeen is already attacking the inner city."

Abiao said in a solemn voice.

"We must kill this traitor with our own hands!"

Lao Zhu's eyes were filled with murderous intent. He probably regretted why the thief didn't give this unfortunate thing to Biao Qiang.

"There are only untrained new troops in the city. My father, my son, I want you to..."

Before A Biao finished speaking, Lao Zhu raised his hand to stop him.

He wanted Lao Zhu to run away.

"If I give him ten more courage, he wouldn't dare to do anything to us."

On this point, Lao Zhu is extremely confident.

"On the other hand, Xiongying didn't tell me how long he would have to leave."

Lao Zhu frowned.

In fact, Lao Zhu and A Biao knew it in their hearts.

With the current city defense of Yingtian relying solely on a group of new troops who had never been on the battlefield and had not even received much training, even under the command of Xu Huizu, it was impossible to stop the onslaught of Zhu Quan's desperate army.

It’s just a matter of being able to persist for a long time.

In Lao Zhu's view, as long as he can wait until Xiongying's eldest grandson comes back, everything can be solved easily.

"I guess it will be soon."

Abiao took a deep breath.

And in the harem, by the Taiye Pool.

Under the quiet moonlight, there is a figure sitting quietly by the pool.

Exactly, Prajna.

The news that Zhu Quan's army was storming the inner city had naturally reached the harem, and all the eunuchs and maids in the palace were in panic.

After all, throughout the dynasties, whenever rebels invaded the palace, a large part of their group of eunuchs and maidens in the harem would be massacred.

Prajna frowned tightly, and after being silent for a long time, he stood up resolutely.

She understands Zhu Quan better than anyone else. He is an insidious man who will never give up until he achieves his goal and will use any means necessary.

Two hours later, outside Zhengyang Gate.

Zhu Quan grinned, as if he was going crazy.

"Kill! Kill them all!"

As he rode his horse back and forth in the army, Zhu Quan looked at the fierce flames burning on the Zhengyang Gate, and his inverted pupils became more and more excited.

Based on the current battle situation, Zhengyang Gate will be breached in another hour at most.

It wasn't that Xu Huizu's defensive strategy was not good, but that these untrained new troops were too inefficient at the execution level, and their fear of war was extremely widespread.

On top of the city wall.

Xu Huizu covered his left shoulder, and the arrow penetrated his left shoulder.

Xu Huizu, who has experienced many battles, can clearly see the current situation at a glance.

However, he had no intention of retreating.
