Chapter 847 The skill of burning life!
"Ding! Li Cunxiao's dual skills are activated!
Currently, Li Cunxiao's double skill effect 4 is activated, and the force value is additionally +1.
Li Cunxiao's current force value has risen to 142! "
The two forces collided wildly on the city wall, and every confrontation caused the wall to tremble and debris to fly everywhere.
Nangong Tianxia's blue-black qi was mixed with blood-red light, intertwined with Li Cunxiao's white-gray qi, and his figure appeared and disappeared in the ocean of qi.
However, although the Life-Burning Technique is powerful, the price is also extremely heavy.
At this moment, every time Nangong Tianxia fired a shot, he felt his vitality slipping away madly. His body began to become tired, but his eyes became more and more determined.
At this moment he could not retreat or fall down, otherwise once Qianyuan City fell, Qianzhou located behind it would be doomed to fall under the iron hoof of the Yellow Turban Army of Luzhou!
Li Cunxiao on the opposite side also felt Nangong Tianxia's tenacity, and felt a sense of respect in his heart.
Even though they were enemies, he had to admire Nangong Tianxia's perseverance.
However, there is no room for mercy on the battlefield. Li Cunxiao's attack is still fierce. Every time he swings the Yuwang Spear, it carries a force that is enough to shake the mountains.
The two fought fiercely on the city wall for hundreds of rounds, but it was still difficult to determine the winner. Even Li Cunxiao, who was stronger, was almost suppressed by the desperate Nangong Tianxia for a short period of time.
Seeing this, the Yellow Turban strongmen under the city wall also quickened their climbing speed.
They knew that as long as they could climb up the city wall and cooperate with Li Cunxiao from inside and outside, Qianyuan City would surely fall into their hands.
However, the Lei Ze Dragon Riders on the city wall also fought desperately, guarding the city with their flesh and blood.
At this moment, the city wall has become a hell on earth.
The fierce battle between Li Cunxiao and Nangong Tianxia filled the surrounding air with a murderous atmosphere.
Every time there was such a clash, the city walls would tremble and the defenders would be terrified.
As time went by, Nangong Tianxia's physical strength began to gradually fail, and the backlash of his Life-Burning Skill also began to show.
His body began to shake, and the blood-red light in the blue-black energy gradually dimmed, but he still gritted his teeth and persisted in fighting Li Cunxiao.
Li Cunxiao also felt Nangong Tianxia's fatigue, and the murderous intent in his heart gradually dissipated.
He looked at the many Yellow Turban soldiers who followed him up the city wall and were slain by the desperate counterattack of the Lei Ze Dragon Riders.
And the Lei Ze Dragon Riders, who had already withdrawn some of their men, had already formed a formation and were about to rush towards him.
Then he looked at Nangong Tianxia in front of him, who was already beginning to look weak and whose strength in his hands was gradually decreasing.
Li Cunxiao hesitated for a while, and finally decided to go down the city wall first.
Although he felt that if he could hold on a little longer, he might be able to hold on until the duration of Nangong Tianxia's life-burning skill expired.
But now that Nangong Tianxia has used the Burning Life Skill, the power he suddenly bursts out has already slightly exceeded his usual normal combat power, coupled with an original Taoist soldier - the Lei Ze Dragon Rider.
In fact, Li Cunxiao himself was not sure whether he could stay on the city wall alone and kill Nangong Tianxia with the cooperation of the two.
Therefore, Li Cunxiao thought for a moment, and then shouted loudly, and the Yuwang Spear drew a perfect arc in the air, sweeping towards the surrounding Lei Ze Dragon Riders with a force that could destroy the world. The Lei Ze Dragon Riders only felt a flash before their eyes, and then an irresistible force came, and they flew backwards one after another.
Li Cunxiao took the opportunity to break out of the siege and ran to the edge of the city wall.
If he wanted to climb the wall, Li Cunxiao could do so at any time with his own martial arts skills.
Moreover, according to Li Cunxiao's observation, the Life-Burning Skill that Nangong Tianxia displayed this time could increase his strength so much at one time, and the cost must be huge.
Therefore, the next time Li Cunxiao comes up again, Nangong Tianxia may not be able to use the Burning Life Skill to stop him again.
So, in the final analysis, although he does have a chance if he resists now, Li Cunxiao still chooses to wait for the next time when Nangong Tianxia is weak, and then kill him in the battle in full view of everyone!
But Li Cunxiao wanted to run, and Nangong Tianxia, who had already used the Burning Life Skill and was surrounded by the Lei Ze Dragon Riders, was not going to let him escape easily.
He endured the severe pain in his body, swung the Heaven-Splitting Spear again, and chased after Li Cunxiao.
Li Cunxiao felt the pursuit from behind, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, he turned around and waved the Yuwang Spear, confronting Nangong Tianxia again.
The two men's weapons collided in the air, making a deafening noise.
However, at this moment, Li Cunxiao suddenly exerted force, pushing Nangong Tianxia back several steps. Then he took the opportunity to rush to the edge of the city wall and slid down directly along the ladder.
Seeing Li Cunxiao escape, Nangong Tianxia endured the severe pain in his body, stood up again and looked at the battlefield under the city wall.
On the battlefield, giant catapults continued to fire stone bombs, and heavy siege equipment such as battering rams and digging hammers also took turns to be used. The entire battlefield was like a purgatory.
The shouts, screams, and the clanging of metal intertwined together, forming an extremely tragic scene of attack and defense.
After Li Cunxiao slid down the ladder, he once again integrated into the Yellow Turban Army. He looked back at Nangong Tianxia on the city wall, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
Although this battle failed to capture Qianyuan City for the time being, the morale of the Yellow Turban Army was even higher.
The next time will be when Nangong Tianxia dies at his hands!
Soon, the sound of the Yellow Turban Army's war drums gradually died down, and was replaced by the crisp sound of gongs, which was the signal to retreat.
Although the many Yellow Turban troops that were still rushing towards Qianyuan City had only run halfway, military orders were as firm as a mountain. After being roughly trained by Meng Zhang, they still began to retreat quickly and orderly, leaving the blood and smoke of the battlefield temporarily to the land stained with blood.
Li Cunxiao did not stay for long. He walked through the bustling Yellow Turban army and headed straight for the commander's tent in the center of the camp.
Inside the commander's tent, the lights were on brightly. Meng Zhang was sitting at his desk, reviewing battle reports, his expression revealing a man who was in control of a strategic plan.
Li Cunxiao stepped into the general's tent with steady steps, but a barely perceptible hint of apology flashed in his eyes.
"General, Cunxiao failed to live up to your trust. We still failed to capture Nangong Tianxia in one fell swoop this time, and he escaped with his life."
He walked up to Meng Zhang, knelt on one knee and bowed.
Although Li Cunxiao's voice was low, it could not hide the self-blame in his heart.
God knows why these bastards all have an explosive secret technique, and there’s nothing he can do about it!
If Si Yan was let go because Li Cunxiao was careless that time, then this time Nangong Tianxia, after unleashing his Burning Life skill, indeed had the ability to confront Li Cunxiao head-on.
