Chapter 249: Half of them will die if they come, and those who escape are lucky
The golden eagle was extremely fast. After rushing out of the island protection formation, its figure flashed for a moment before it rushed in front of a Saker Falcon that was losing control and flying around, spilling blood.
The Great Jin Dynasty had previously received instructions from Li Dingguo, and the first target it chose to deal with was the two Saker Falcons.
To it and Li Dingguo, these two Saker Falcons were much more dangerous than the two powerful Tatar warriors who attacked.
As long as these two Saker Falcons are killed successfully, the remaining two enemies will find it difficult to escape without their flying mounts.
"Dong dong..."
Before Li Dingguo's men arrived, the Xuanhuang Chaos Bell, a martial arts Dharma image, appeared. The bell, which was specifically designed to kill the souls of practitioners, kept ringing.
As he broke through to the fifth level of martial arts, the killing range of his martial arts form also increased dramatically, and the area within a hundred feet radius was covered by the sound of the bell.
"Chirp!"
This Saker Falcon, which has no natal magic weapon to protect its soul, even if it has the cultivation level of the peak level five, is seriously injured and has not had time to recover its protective qi. How can it possibly withstand the fierce attack on its soul launched by the sound waves of the Xuanhuang Chaos Bell?
It suddenly felt a splitting headache and screamed in extreme pain!
"Die!"
When the Saker Falcon's breath was confused by Li Dingguo's martial arts and it had basically lost its fighting ability, Li Dingguo smiled coldly and jumped up from the back of the golden eagle in an instant!
"Pfft!"
His body flashed in the sky and he had already arrived beside the Saker Falcon. He shook the magical spear in his hand and several gun flowers flashed!
The next moment, a bloody hole was pierced through the head, neck, and heart of the huge Saker Falcon!
After suffering such fatal injuries, no matter how strong the vitality of this Saker Falcon, which had reached the peak of level five cultivation, was, it lost its breath in an instant, and its huge body fell toward the sea below!
"Chirp..."
Something Li Dingguo could not have imagined happened: he saw another Saker Falcon a hundred feet away. After seeing its partner being killed, it let out a sharp cry and actually burned all three drops of its own blood essence, temporarily restoring its combat power to its peak state. It screamed in grief and anger and quickly pounced towards Li Dingguo!
Although Li Dingguo had long known that if a pair of eagles' partner died, nine out of ten would choose to commit suicide without hesitation, he was still shocked when he saw this scene with his own eyes!
There is no doubt that if the vital blood in its body is burned out, it will die in about a quarter of an hour even if Li Dingguo does not take action.
To be honest, Li Dingguo is no match for this level 5 peak Saker Falcon that is fighting with all its might.
Even if he used all his trump cards, it would be the same.
Unless the battle was on the ground, Li Dingguo could not contend with them unless he led a thousand elite soldiers to form a military killing formation to fight.
"Chirp..."
How could the golden eagle just sit there and watch when it saw its master in danger?
It let out a sharp cry, and its figure flashed in the sky. It was closer to Li Dingguo, and it flew under its master in time and caught him steadily.
Then, the golden eagle turned back in the sky and headed straight towards the Saker Falcon that wanted to die with it!
As a top-level spiritual bird also at level five, the golden eagle would naturally not be afraid of the other party.
It’s a one-on-one situation now. The opponent is already seriously injured. He wants to fight to the death by burning his own life essence and blood?
What a beautiful thought!
"Woooo..."
At this moment, a scene that neither Li Dingguo nor the golden eagle had expected happened: the Saker Falcon, which was determined to die together with the enemy, opened its mouth wide, and a bluish-white stream of light spurted out of its mouth, which then turned into countless extremely sharp wind blades, covering the golden eagle and Li Dingguo!
"Fuck!"
"This is my innate magical power attack!"
Li Dingguo was startled for a moment, but fortunately he reacted very quickly and his mind moved immediately!
"Human Emperor Cauldron, come out!"
As he thought about it, his innate divine weapon, the Human Emperor Cauldron, instantly flashed out and quickly transformed into a dark yellow cauldron that was nine feet square, blocking Li Dingguo and the golden eagle in front of him, completely hiding the man and the bird.
"Dangdang..."
Those densely packed wind blades that arrived immediately afterwards were extremely lethal, and when they struck the Human Emperor Cauldron, they made continuous and crisp sounds like hammering iron!
The huge divine cauldron was hit and made a loud bang, but it remained standing tall and motionless, blocking all of the opponent's extremely lethal attacks from his innate magical powers.
It’s not that the Human Emperor Cauldron is not powerful, but Li Dingguo’s current cultivation is too poor, and he can’t even exert one billionth of its power.
But how could the top-level innate divine weapon be broken by the innate magical attack of a level five spirit bird?
Can't even get it to move.
"Dajin, let's go!"
Li Dingguo changed his mind again, and instantly took the Human Emperor Cauldron back into the Sea of Gods. He shouted to the big golden eagle, "This Saker Falcon just used its innate magical power, and the internal energy and blood power are almost exhausted!"
"Kill it while it's sick!"
"It is impossible for it to use its innate magical power to attack again. Now its aura has plummeted. If we work together, we will be able to kill it quickly!"
How rich is Li Dingguo's combat experience?
After this Saker Falcon launched its innate magical power to attack, the divine sense sensed that its breath dropped sharply. It was obviously at the end of its strength. How could it not seize the opportunity?
"Chirp..."
The big golden eagle was also frightened by the opponent just now, and was thinking of using his innate magical power to fight against the opponent.
As a result, the master's innate magical weapon blocked the opponent's innate magical attack first. Now that he heard the master's order, how could he not know to seize the opportunity and kill the opponent as soon as possible?
Its body accelerated to the extreme in an instant, and it flashed in front of the Saker Falcon. Its pair of sharp claws flashed with two meters-long rays of energy, and it attacked the opponent's head!
"Dong dong..."
Li Dingguo was certainly not idle. He used his spiritual power to manipulate his martial arts form, the Xuanhuang Chaos Bell, and continuously launched attacks on the soul of the Saker Falcon.
At the same time, he took off the third-grade bow and arrow that he was carrying on his back, and locked his mind on the figure of the Saker Falcon.
After it collided with the golden eagle and was knocked back, a magic arrow flew out and took advantage of the opportunity to shoot into the eye socket of the Saker Falcon.
This was a third-grade magic arrow of the highest quality, and its armor-piercing ability was extraordinary. It blatantly broke through the already shaky protective aura of the Saker Falcon and shot through its head immediately!
"Dong dong..."
At this time, the sonic attack emitted by the martial arts Dharma directly impacted the opponent's sea of consciousness, shattering the Saker Falcon's soul immediately!
"Chirp..."
This poor Saker Falcon, very unwillingly, turned its head to look at the body of its partner which had fallen into the sea just before it lost its breath. It let out a mournful cry with difficulty and then died completely, falling headfirst towards the sea below.
"Hey!"
"What a loving couple."
Li Dingguo looked at the Saker Falcon couple and their undying love for each other, and couldn't help but sigh.
Unfortunately, the other party is his mortal enemy and it is impossible for them to coexist peacefully, so he has to be killed.
"what?"
After successfully killing the two powerful enemies, the Saker Falcons, which posed the greatest threat to him and the soldiers of the Fuxing Army, Li Dingguo immediately looked around the sea below, only to find that the two Later Jin Tartars who had attacked on Saker Falcons had disappeared without a trace!
"Dajin, let's fly around this sea area immediately and look carefully to see if we can find any trace of those two top Tartar warriors!" His face changed slightly and his eyes became grim.
Although he knew that the two seriously injured Tatar masters had not lost the ability to move, and must have practiced the skills to hide their own breath or hold their breath underwater.
Even without practicing this kind of special auxiliary skills, a practitioner of the fifth level of martial arts can hold his breath for several hours without breathing through his mouth or nose.
After all, all practitioners rely on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to maintain their own energy consumption, not air.
Li Dingguo had even read in an ancient book that after a practitioner reached the realm of spiritual refinement, he no longer needed to breathe air to sustain life.
If a practitioner absorbs too much ordinary air, it will be harmful to his body.
In their daily lives, strong people in the Spirit Refining Realm will greatly reduce the frequency of breathing through the mouth and nose, and try to minimize the intake of ordinary air, so that their physical fitness can be continuously improved and transformed.
This is the biggest difference between practitioners and ordinary people.
Li Dingguo also knew something: most of the diseases that occur in ordinary people's bodies are closely related to the oxygen concentration in the air.
All viruses rely on an environment rich in oxygen to proliferate and multiply. The more oxygen the human body absorbs, the greater the chance of getting sick, and the more difficult it is to recover from the disease.
He had tried it many times in his previous life: as long as he calmed down, tried to be calm, and tried to lower his breathing frequency, preferably holding his breath for a few minutes, the symptoms of headaches, palpitations, internal heat, insomnia and other illnesses would quickly be alleviated and then slowly disappear. There was no need to go to the hospital for injections or medication.
Li Dingguo gathered his mind, sat on the back of the golden eagle, and searched carefully as it flew around the sea.
However, apart from the two dead bodies of Saker Falcons floating on the sea, there was no human figure in sight!
"These two Tartar masters are surprisingly so lucky. In this situation, they wouldn't have escaped anyway, right?"
His face was somewhat gloomy, and he said to the Golden Eagle, "Dajin, first capture the bodies of the pair of Saker Falcons and put them back on the small rock on the island, then come back and join me to search for the enemy together."
"With my current cultivation level, even if I walk on the water for a quarter of an hour, I won't use up all my energy. You don't have to worry about anything."
The big golden eagle nodded immediately. After Li Dingguo jumped off its back and stood on the sea, its body flashed a few times quickly, and it used its sharp claws to grab the two dead Saker Falcons from the sea and returned to the protective formation of Lingshan Island.
Li Dingguo had left the mark of the island protection formation on the body of the golden eagle, so it could enter and exit Lingshan Island freely without being restricted by the formation.
Li Dingguo had just searched on the sea for a while when the golden eagle returned to his side.
As the master leaped again and sat on its back, it flew around the sea, searching carefully for the traces of the two Later Jin Tartars.
An hour later, the man and the eagle had searched the entire sea area of hundreds of miles, but still found nothing.
"never mind."
Li Dingguo gave up searching for the enemy and said to the golden eagle, "These two Tartar masters are lucky. They were able to escape by diving into the sea after being seriously injured."
"However, I believe they were hit by the concentrated fire of the psychic cannons, and the injuries they suffered are not light. It is hard to say whether they can recover in the future."
"I hope they will die from their injuries like Nurhaci did."
"Let's go back. There's no need to look for it anymore. I think it would be a waste of time if we continue looking."
Li Dingguo knew very well that since such a fifth-level martial arts master had already dived into the sea and escaped, after such a long time, he must have dived far away from Lingshan Bay. God knows where he escaped to in this vast ocean.
Finding them is as difficult as looking for a needle in a haystack, and there is basically no hope.
If the other party is unlucky and encounters a powerful sea beast, it would be tragic.
This possibility is not impossible, but the probability is very high.
Those powerful sea beasts have extremely sensitive perception and sense of smell in sea water, far exceeding that of humans.
"Chirp..."
The big golden eagle nodded its big head and soared into the sky with Li Dingguo. After a while, it entered Lingshan Island and landed on the big pier.
At this time, Xiao Shitou and three hundred soldiers from the artillery battalion had returned to the big dock.
They surrounded the two huge Saker Falcons, marveling at them and talking about them.
"Commander-in-chief, you're back!"
When Little Stone saw Li Dingguo coming back, he ran over with a happy face and said, "This time it was really fun. I didn't expect the psychic cannon's concentrated fire attack to be so powerful. In just one round of attack, the enemy was severely injured and sent flying!"
"These two eagles, which are different in color from the big gold, are also level five spiritual birds, right?"
"Such a powerful spiritual bird was severely injured by our bombardment, and then killed by you, the commander-in-chief, and the golden eagle. This is simply too good!"
"I will train this artillery battalion to be the kind of artillerymen who can hit the target every time. We will kill as many enemies as dare to attack us."
Obviously, this psychic cannon salvo attack made Xiao Shitou extremely interested in this extremely powerful attack mode.
"small stone."
Li Dingguo said to him, "The 300 artillery battalion soldiers here are just some backbone seedlings."
"We have so many treasure ships, how can we have enough gunners?"
"I plan to expand the artillery battalion soon. We must train a 3,000-man artillery team as soon as possible to fully unleash the combat effectiveness of these treasure ships."
"By the way, go inform your sister Liang Liping that we can officially start the work of forming our navy."
"This round of soldier selection will be completed in two days. We will first form a navy of 10,000 people. Once the framework is built, we will start training immediately!"
"We are helpless in a situation like today where we are passively beaten. We must make changes as soon as possible and turn defense into offense in the future."
The tactic that Li Dingguo disliked the most was defensive warfare. Taking the initiative was the future war development model of the Fuxing Army.
"Yes! Commander-in-Chief!"
Upon hearing that the commander-in-chief had decided to form a large-scale artillery battalion and navy, Xiao Shitou was overjoyed. He quickly saluted him, turned around hurriedly, and flew towards Lingshan City to convey the latest orders to his sister Liang Liping.
To be honest, all the soldiers of the Fuxing Army on Lingshan Island are now looking at the huge treasure ships anchored in Lingshan Bay with envy.
Everyone wishes they could drive them and travel around the sea. How exciting that would be!
The formal establishment of the navy will inevitably attract soldiers to sign up enthusiastically and participate in this round of naval officer selection.
