Sect Master’s Immortal Journey Chapter 1353: Defeat
The army of human monks paid a huge price and finally managed to break out of the encirclement.
But this is just the beginning, not the end.
The almost endless army of monsters is still coming from all directions, constantly chasing after the human monks.
The True Lords of the Yuanshen protected the army of human monks, fighting and retreating, trying to slowly break away from the monster army.
The most terrifying thing about the monster army is that there are too many of them.
Whether the human monks release machine puppets or various talismans, they can only have a temporary effect, and they will soon be overwhelmed by the monster army again.
Before setting off, this army of monks made full preparations.
Meng Zhang was not stingy with all kinds of war supplies and was really arming this army with all his heart.
But there are too many monsters, and all kinds of materials are consumed too quickly.
Not long after the breakout, most of the war supplies were consumed.
At this time, not only were a massive army of monsters chasing from behind, but also some faster monsters were outflanking them, trying to surround the army of human monks again.
The army of human monks is not without advantages. They are organized and can form formations to give full play to their own strength.
They also have a large number of machine puppets as cannon fodder, countless talismans, sufficient magical weapons, etc.
But all these advantages are offset by the absolute numerical advantage of monsters.
And the most disgusting thing about monsters is their demonizing ability.
The greater the number of monsters and the higher their level, the stronger their demonizing ability.
If faced with the siege of massive monsters for a long time, even a determined cultivator will slowly become demonized.
Although every cultivator has exorcism talismans and elixirs, when these consumables are exhausted, it will be difficult to resist the power of demonization.
Maybe it was because he saw the army of human monks breaking out and turning into the huge meat ball towards South China that he suddenly became furious.
His attacks were more ferocious and violent, making it very difficult for Meng Zhang and Nanzhu Zhenjun to parry.
To be honest, before setting off, Meng Zhang had speculated that his family might encounter Xiang Huanan.
But after demonizing this guy Xiang Huanan, although he became inhuman and ghost, his strength improved so much. It was really beyond Meng Zhang's expectation.
I am afraid that at this level of late Yuan Shen, there are not many human monks who can beat Xiang Huanan.
Meng Zhang and Nanzhu Zhenjun can only barely protect themselves if they join forces.
If you want to defeat this guy? Unless the Yang Shen monk takes action, or multiple Yuanshen True Lords participate in the siege.
Under the current situation? Meng Zhang and Nanzhu Zhenjun can only support with all their strength.
If the two of them cannot stop this terrifying monster and let it rush into the army of human monks? It will definitely be a horrific massacre.
As a superior, Meng Zhang is a responsibility that he cannot escape.
Fortunately, Nanzhu Zhenjun is still powerful enough. He did not flinch when he encountered a strong enemy, and still actively cooperated with Meng Zhang in fighting.
After so many years in the late stage of Meng Zhang's advancement to Yuanshen, his cultivation has not improved much. However, after many trainings, he has accumulated rich combat experience and mastered many magical powers and secrets.
When he actually moves his hands, his combat effectiveness is not weak.
The magical powers recorded on the Demon-Conquering Treasure Mirror, such as the golden light that subdues demons, the clear light that exorcises demons, etc.? Meng Zhang also practiced hard.
Although he did not use the magic mirror, he was still able to exert the power of these demon-killing magical powers, posing a huge threat to the monsters transformed into Xiang Huanan.
Meng Zhang's strength may be slightly inferior to that of Nanzhu Zhenjun, but when it comes to fighting against monsters, he can play a greater role even without the magic mirror.
When Meng Zhang and Nanzhu Zhenjun were unable to escape? The army of human monks below was also slowly retreating.
Despite paying a huge price, we were not surrounded again.
Especially the group of Yin and Yang Dao soldiers? At the critical moment, they stopped the pursuit of the monsters at the cost of self-destruction.
It is not easy to maintain this group of Yin and Yang Dao soldiers, and they need to consume a lot of precious materials.
They all lost their lives here. Although it made Meng Zhang feel heartache, it still played a huge role.
Of course, the army of human monks has not yet completely gotten rid of the army of monsters.
The human monks kept retreating, with an army of monsters chasing after them.
From time to time, many faster monsters would rush in front of the human formation and engage in fierce battles with the human monks.
Seeing that the army of monks below began to retreat, Meng Zhang and Nanzhu Zhenjun also fought and retreated, instead of fighting on the spot.
The retreat direction of the human monk army was carefully chosen.
Ten days later, the army of human monks entered an area covered with dense water networks.
Before setting off, Meng Zhang also considered how to retreat his army of monks if the situation was unfavorable.
He specifically contacted the Shui Tribe and the Gray Peng King.
Although Shui Tribe and Meng Zhang can't deal with each other, they can still cooperate when facing the monster army.
As for the Gray Peng King, although it is not possible for the army of monsters sent to directly cooperate with the human monks to fight, they can control the route of the army of monsters. Let it attract the attention of the monster army at critical moments.
According to the information disclosed by Shui Tribe in advance, this area with dense water network is the only place they must pass on their route.
Sure enough, less than two days after the army of human monks retreated into this area, the army of the Shui tribe appeared from a large river.
Facing the huge army of monsters, the water tribe army directly jumped into the battle without saying a word.
The eldest son and the eldest concubine of the Mermaid King took the lead, charging forward and blocking the strongest among the monsters.
The participation of the Shui Tribe army in the battle finally made this defeated human tribe heave a sigh of relief.
After these days of fierce fighting, most of the human monks suffered casualties, and almost all of the remaining monks were injured and their vitality was severely damaged.
In addition to the annihilation of all the Yin and Yang Dao soldiers under Meng Zhang, there were also three Yuanshen True Lords who died in the battle on the human side.
Before departure, this army of monks numbered more than 5,000 people, almost 6,000 people.
But after all this, it is estimated that there are not even a thousand people left.
If it were an ordinary human army, facing such heavy casualties, it would probably have completely collapsed.
But monks are far tougher than ordinary people in terms of mentality, and everyone knows what kind of terrible end they will encounter if they lose in the face of monsters.
Moreover, the leading Yuanshen Lords commanded effectively and carefully supervised and urged everyone to fight.
Therefore, almost everyone in this army of monks sacrificed their lives and fought with all their strength.
During the war, many monks were seriously injured and died, and the desperate monks took the initiative to self-destruct in order to fight for a chance of survival for their companions.
Such a scene is difficult to see in a battle between human monks.
