The troops in the four camps are all the same, each with 10,000 ordinary soldiers and 2,000 warriors of each level. Most of the survivors who have not been infected with corpse poison at this time are warriors guarding the Northern Pass. They all have spiritual cultivation and have stronger combat power than ordinary soldiers. The most important thing is that spiritual cultivation brings them night vision ability, so that they can clearly see their opponents on dark nights.

Ordinary soldiers are not as lucky as warriors. They do not have night vision ability and cannot effectively dodge and counterattack in the chaos. In addition, the enemies are all transformed by their own soldiers, and their clothes are exactly the same as theirs, which also increases the difficulty for them to identify their opponents and respond effectively.

Since Xuanwu had already buried in the sky, his defensive front moved forward as a whole towards the barrier, and a large number of Tiangang crossbows and Earth Demon bows were arranged around the barrier. In addition, there were many catapults that threw huge stones and gunpowder. At this time, the battle was mainly concentrated around these large weapons.

The changes that occurred in the Northern Army camp were naturally done by the heretics. The purpose was undoubtedly to disrupt the defenders' positions and cooperate with the subsequent loosening of barriers, creating an opportunity for the remnants of the demon clan sealed in another world. The Northern Passage General undoubtedly guessed this, so he ordered the rest of the people to stay around large weapons such as the Tiangang Crossbow and the Earth Demon Bow to ensure that once the barrier is loose, it can be blocked as soon as possible.

From a tactical point of view alone, this approach is very correct, but this move also brought serious consequences, that is, soldiers and warriors who were not infected with corpse poison were limited in their movements and could not effectively avoid and defend, which indirectly aggravated their own casualties.

Just as Wu Zhongyuan was eager to observe the situation in the field, Li Tai shouted again, "All corpses will behead you, and you must not hesitate."

While shouting the order, Li Tai activated the Qinglong Armor to fly out of the ground and fly westward.

After Li Tai took off, he found Wu Zhongyuan in person and turned around in the air. He came close to Wu Zhongyuan. "I have seen the emperor, and the enemy is prepared. There are probably ambushes hidden in the forest in the distance. His subordinates are about to go patrol and inspect."

Wu Zhongyuan did not answer the conversation, but just nodded.

Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan had no further instructions, Li Bie bowed to Wu Zhongyuan and then activated the Qinglong Armor to fly westward.

Although Wu Zhongyuan's expression was as usual and seemed very calm, in fact, only he knew that he was not as calm as he showed. This was the first time he had seen such a fierce and strange melee battle. It was beyond his previous understanding of war. He did not expect that the enemy would really do everything he could to use, and even use corpse poison. You must know that corpse poison is a more despicable means than biological and chemical weapons. The enemy's actions have exceeded the scope of war and turned into a racial massacre.

After anxious pondering, Wu Zhongyuan calmed down and sensed and summoned Qiongqi. Xuanwu's Futian's defense was weak, and Qiongqi was not afraid of all poisons. At this moment, Xuanwu, who could temporarily defend Beiguan on behalf of Futian's Futian.

After sending out his thoughts, Wu Zhongyuan teleported and disappeared and appeared in Xiguan.

The situation in Xiguan is very similar to that in Beiguan. There are also a large number of soldiers who have undergone corpses. However, compared with the chaos in Beiguan, the situation in Xiguan is slightly better. The warriors and soldiers who have not been infected with corpses have withdrawn from the camp. Relying on the horse-rejecting fence outside the barracks, the corpses have been blocked in the barracks. However, the soldiers and warriors who have safely withdrawn from the camps are less than 50% of the total number. The Taurus Warriors led by Jiang Nan have participated in the battle and have all entered the camps where all of them are corpses. The defenders of Xiguan are all from the bull tribe. In order to eliminate hidden dangers, a group of Taurus Warriors had to endure the grief in their hearts, slashing their swords, and slaughtered each other.

Since the corpse changes occurred in the camp of the defenders, the barrier area was not affected. It has not been seen for several months. The already old white tiger has become more and more aging and thin, and has been skinny. The white tiger has not participated in the incident that occurred in Xiguan. It still lay on the huge bluestone, lowering its eyebrows and closing its eyes, and not moving.

Two goats tied to the right of the bluestone, and two wooden barrels were placed on the left of the bluestone. The bean juice and pig blood that could replenish gold energy, but the two wooden barrels were full. Looking at the place where the sheep were tied, there were many sheep dung balls, all of which mean that the white tiger hadn't eaten for a long time.

Shortly after Wu Zhongyuan appeared, a figure flew from the west and rushed over Dexi Pass to shout urgently, "The big thing is not good, there are all demon ambushers a hundred miles away."

The person who issued the warning was not someone else, but Prince Jiang Zhen. He and Jiang Dahua cooperated with Jiang Dahua to defend Xiguan. Jiang Dahua had not arrived yet.

Just this warning voice reveals Jiang Zhen’s courage but not strategy. Such words like a big deal should not be said, and it is easy to aggravate the tension and panic of the Xiguan defenders.

Jiang Zhen did not notice Wu Zhongyuan. After shouting, he rushed into the battle group. Wu Zhongyuan's long sword was in his hand but did not participate in the battle. He held the long sword to supplement the loss of spiritual energy caused by previous large-scale teleportation. Now it is just a prelude to the war. The real bloody battle has not yet begun, and it is not time for him to take action.

After a moment of stay, Wu Zhongyuan teleported to Nanguan, and there was also serious corpse transformation in Nanguan. Zhu Qianwei, Wu Qin and Wu Di were all here. Gao Zhan also led the wolf army to rush over, and all three thousand elite troops were dispatched. However, they did not participate in the battle, but were stranded on the edge of the jungle northwest of Nanguan. The rapidly rising and falling abdomen and long tongues showed that they had just arrived and had not yet received rest or breathing.

Gao Zhan seemed to have never come back to his senses, and was still confused at this moment. He stood in front of the wolf pack holding a dragon stick in his hand and looked around. Seeing Wu Zhongyuan appear, he hurriedly came in, "Sir, what's going on?"

"The enemy casts corpse poison, and the four camps suffer heavy losses," Wu Zhongyuan said in a deep voice. After saying that, he raised his anger and spoke out, "The corpse poison comes from zombies, and zombies are governed by the ghost clan. This time, the attack on the ghost clan is the culprit. There must be ambushes on the periphery. Today, there will be bloody battles. I will be guarded to death and I will never let the ghost king escape!"

Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's shout, everyone below was shocked.

Compared with the other three passes, our side has invested the most troops in Nanguan, not only a hundred purple wizards, but also four assistant princes and three thousand elite soldiers of the wolf clan. Moreover, the Zhuque is still there. The war begins later, and Nanguan does not need him to be distracted.

When everyone shouted, Wu Zhongyuan teleported again and appeared in Dongguan.

The reason why he finally arrived at Dongguan was because in his opinion, the situation in Dongguan should be better than the other three passes, because the gods' eyes are higher than the top and their relationship with the other roads is not good. It is impossible to join forces with the demons and ghosts to attack. Even if the defenders undergo corpses, it is a way for the enemy to disperse the human forces.

But the facts were very different from what he imagined. The war situation in Dongguan was the most severe among the passes. The entire camp was full of corpses, and tens of thousands of soldiers were almost wiped out. At present, the warriors wearing various cloaks were still alive. The firearm guards led by Wang Xinran had already met with the living defenders, but they were not in a hurry to use firearms, but each held a sword and slashed in close proximity.

After a brief observation, Wu Zhongyuan flew west quickly, found two hundred miles before diverting to the north, and then returned to Dongguan from the dense forest to the north.

While he was patrolling the northwest, Zhulang and Yu Qingdu also arrived quickly from their respective cities.

Seeing the two, Wu Zhongyuan shouted, "Two princes, can you see ambushing troops on the way?"

"No." The two of them spoke in unison.

After hearing the two of them, Wu Zhongyuan knew it in his mind. The gods did not join forces with the demons and ghosts. The corpse transformation that happened here was just the other three deliberately doing it to disperse the human army.

Just as he was trying to teleport away, a yellow light suddenly appeared in the Dongguan barrier. Seeing that the barrier was loose, Wu Zhongyuan hurriedly stabilized his body and watched intently.

At the moment when the barrier loosened, waves of water appeared in the dormant pool of Qinglong. At the same time, a spiritual barrier emerged out of thin air, covering the area where the barrier was located.

The loosening and opening of the barrier is not achieved overnight, but a process that is repeatedly between opening and closing, much like the flashing and darkness of an incandescent light bulb before it breaks. The whole process lasts about thirty seconds, and then the barrier is fully opened.

However, after the barrier was opened, the gods did not try to conflict. Not to mention the gods' army, even a rat ran out.

After observing for a while, the gods took the opportunity to break through. The soldiers who had seen the corpse were about to be removed. Wu Zhongyuan did not continue to stay from the East Pass. When he left Beiguan, Li Tai was patrolling everywhere. He teleported away without waiting for Li Tai to return. Therefore, he was not sure whether Beiguan was like Nanguan and Xiguan, with ambushing troops lurking outside.

After appearing in Beiguan, he found that the barrier of Beiguan had also loosened. Qiongqi had already been called in at this time. He should have noticed a potential danger and was arching his back and strengthening his body.

The defenders who had not been infected with corpse poison and the Golden Crow Warriors were still chopping and slaying soldiers who had transformed into corpses. Due to the addition of the Golden Crow Warriors, the defenders gradually reversed their disadvantages and stabilized their positions at this time.

Li Tai and Li Wanzi, who arrived later, did not participate in the war, but hovered in the air and had an urgent conversation.

Wu Zhongyuan moved out of thin air, and before the two of them lived, "Can there be ambushes on the outside?"

"Yes," Li Tai replied seriously, "A hundred miles away, within three hundred miles, there are all aliens of the demon race, with a variety of auras and many species."

After Li Tai said that, Li Wanzi said, "The mountains are high and dense, so you cannot enter the killing. You can only defend the Northern Pass and wait for them to attack on the initiative."

"The enemy is bound to win." Wu Zhongyuan said in a deep voice.

The two of them focused their heads, then turned to look at Wu Zhongyuan and waited for him to issue an order.

Wu Zhongyuan did not speak immediately. It was early December, and there were twenty days left before the Divine Beast Funeral Heaven. No one would have thought that the enemy would choose this opportunity to break through. According to ordinary people's thinking, it would be easier to break through after the Divine Beast Funeral Heaven, but the enemy did the opposite, which caught them off guard.
