One-key direct reach to the Chinese realm.

All say the Fierce Slaughter, with his soldier’s edge, is unmatched. Yet, within the battle of Qi Yang, he also displayed extraordinary patience, advancing camp by camp, step by step, forcing Yang Jian De into a final gamble rather than a decisive battle outside the city walls.

All say Cao All employs soldiers with utmost steadiness. But on this Sword Edge Mountain, the moment he saw Yu Li Yang, he immediately placed a heavy wager without hesitation!

No waiting, no probing, not even a single word of dialogue.

Just continuous advancement, pressing forward, relentlessly.

As if treating the Sword Edge Mountain before him as though fighting within the Noble City itself!

How could a force as crucial as the Autumn Kill Army, an absolute main force, be unleashed so easily on Sword Edge Mountain?

Gathering the power of the army array, utilizing army array killing methods, these are typically means for deciding victory.

Soldiers’ vital energy and Dao Yuan are all limited.

Dao Yuan can be replenished through Dao Yuan Stones, and vital energy can be restored with vital energy pills… these are merely resources. But when soldiers’ spiritual will is consumed, leaving behind fatigue, it is not so easily remedied.

Even the Autumn Kill Army, a force renowned throughout the world, cannot sustain the power of the army array for prolonged periods. After gathering their forces for this powerful assault on Sword Edge Mountain, they will surely need to rest.

Xia Country’s territory is vast, encompassing twenty-one prefectures. To expend such a trump card of the Autumn Kill Army, a main force, merely for the perilous pass of Feng Jie Prefecture – was it truly worth it?

How would they then fight in the remaining twenty prefectures?

Is the initial stage of war not a time for mutual probing, understanding, and establishing a shared battlefield perception?

In a war of this magnitude, the mere act of securing victory or defeat should be approached with a search for the path to defeat!

According to normal warfare, a pass like Sword Edge Mountain should only be manned by county soldiers or conscripted armies from the various states in the East Domain.

If they failed to conquer it, having explored the defense system, then and only then would they mobilize elite forces for a fierce assault – this is the standard choice in warfare!

The so-called “normal” signifies not making mistakes, signifies placing everything in the world with accuracy, it is the kingly path.

Thus, the high echelons of Xia Country determined that merely stationing one True Person here would be sufficient to delay the Qi Army for half a month.

The personal arrival of Min King Yu Li Yang was more about ensuring the steady defense of Sword Edge Mountain while simultaneously maintaining ample room for advance and retreat. The Xia Country side simply wanted to use the smallest price to delay the Qi Army for the longest time.

But Cao All is too strong and unyielding!

The Qi Army’s understanding of the Sword Edge Mountain defense line also surpassed the imagination of the Xia Country garrison. They attacked as if looking at a defense map!

Withstanding the pressure of True Monarch Yu Li Yang personally guarding it, they came in with trump cards right from the start, directly targeting the vital points of the Sword Edge Mountain defense line.

The Autumn Kill Army’s soldier array killing method, the Break Mountain Eight Slash Knife, had at this moment already reached the seventh slash.

The soldier evil battle general holding the knife at this moment was already fifty *zhang* tall.

Majestic, like an ancient giant walking forth.

Even before the towering Sword Edge Mountain, its existence was absolutely not something one could ignore.

Not to mention that single knife, gathered with the power of the army’s momentum, directly aimed at the array node of the second segment of the mountain – clearly, the key node had already been temporarily shifted three times, yet it was still precisely located!

The amount of time the entire Fa Xia Army headquarters spent calculating the landing point of each slash of this Break Mountain Eight Slash Knife is beyond words.

The duration of the research into the so-called five-segment style Thick Virtue Carry Thing Array, the work done by the Qi Country intelligence system… the same need not be described.

That silent, perilous confrontation, all the sweat, sacrifice, and accumulation behind the scenes…

One only needs to look at each slash of the Autumn Kill Army array, like a butcher dissecting a cow!

Within the vast army array, Jiang Wang’s feelings at this moment were completely different.

He felt his power… things like Dao Yuan and vital energy, rapidly leaving him, converging towards a common will.

In the Victory Camp, this gathered power was led by Heavy Profound Win. But within the entire ten-thousand-man army, the power of these different parts gathered again towards grander parts, ultimately led by the main general of the Autumn Kill Army.

The ten-thousand-man army array possessed an externally concentrated will, with the army array diagram as its fundamental reliance. Under the guidance of the main general, soldier evil was gathered.

Although the individual strength of this army’s main general was not as high as his own.

But at this moment, Jiang Wang felt that this surge of power was immense and fierce, far beyond his own reach!

The soldiers of the entire Victory Camp, under the command of Heavy Profound Win, strictly followed their usual training to move into position, stepping according to the array diagram, following an inherent rhythm, stirring up Dao Yuan and vital energy, delivering their own power to the “collective array diagram will.”

Jiang Wang could feel that his own power was surging, and under the influence of the soldier array, it was rapidly transforming into the same quality Autumn Kill soldier evil power, merging with the whole. And this power, controlled by the array diagram, was under the control of the army’s main general… even the power of this army of ten thousand men simultaneously obeyed a higher-level will.

In ancient times, the human race gathered the power of their weak brethren in this manner, uniting all the extraordinary and non-extraordinary clan people, to defeat opponents one by one.

This continuous surge of one knife after another was Heavy Profound Chu Liang, remotely controlling the army’s momentum. While slashing at the great protective array of Sword Edge Mountain, he was also accumulating his own momentum, his gaze fixed on Yu Li Yang.

Facing the slash of this towering soldier evil battle general, the garrison of the second segment of the mountain was almost in despair.

The protective array of Sword Edge Mountain was far from its peak state.

Under the situation where the first segment of the mountain was almost shattered by the hundred thorn boats, the power of the earth veins surged up, and they were again facing a world-renowned force like the Autumn Kill Army.

They were desperately fighting for their lives, snatching back lost ground, one team of garrison soldiers after another rushing down to supplement positions, barely maintaining the momentum of the array in the second segment of the mountain. But the great array’s absorption of earth vein power was temporarily unable to increase further.

They were already on the verge of collapse, and the massive soldier evil ghost-headed knife was again slashing down—

“Roar!”

Suddenly, there was the roar of a dragon!

A huge green dragon formed from soldier evil, complete with scales and claws, its momentum grand. At this critical moment, it soared out, biting onto the edge of the knife with one mouth!

Its tail coiled around Sword Edge Mountain, steaming with cloudy energy. Its dragon mouth held the blade, shining with treasure light. Its dragon eyes revealed its might, and it struck the towering soldier evil battle general, causing it to stagger back and lean.

Great Xia’s Marquis of Jing An, Hua Hong Zhao!

He seized the crucial moment. Just as the last knife of the Break Mountain Eight Slash Knife was about to be unleashed, he boldly formed a ten-thousand-man army array. With the support of the five-segment style Thick Virtue Carry Thing great array, the soldier evil turned into a dragon, charging out of Sword Edge Mountain!

This was a near-perfect strike.

Whether in terms of seizing the timing, or in condensing the soldier’s momentum and mobilizing the soldiers, it was all so.

With soldiers far less powerful than the Autumn Kill Army, to boldly intercept the Autumn Kill Army’s flowing offensive with a formed array, how can one not say “perfect”?

But…

But whom was he facing? Where was there only this one towering soldier evil battle general? Where was there only this one knife?

Fortunate that he revealed himself at this moment.

Unfortunate that he was facing the Great Qi’s Marquis of Ding Yuan, known as the Fierce Slaughter, Heavy Profound Chu Liang!

The soldier evil green dragon held the blade and resisted, but the knife within its mouth suddenly collapsed and scattered. Right in front of it, the fifty *zhang* tall soldier evil battle general instantly collapsed, like an avalanche!

Pound after pound of soldier evil poured out like a sea, collapsing between heaven and earth, and a single knife swept across.

The arc of this knife was extremely high, and its handle was slightly curved. It came without sound and swept without intent. As it passed, it wiped out all the surging soldier evil!

The hundred-thousand-man Autumn Kill Army was already completely integrated.

The will of a hundred thousand people condensed like steel, the vital energy and Dao Yuan of a hundred thousand people, all mixed into the Autumn Kill soldier evil.

Jiang Wang, within it, felt himself like a drop of water in an ocean, with countless trickles together, gathering into surging waves. For the first time in his life, he felt the “soul” of an army.

He felt that such an army was “alive,” possessing a certain life force!

This feeling was very strange.

A hundred thousand people breathing together, sharing a common fate, their vital energy surging together, their souls roaming together.

It was as if he had a “body outside his body,” gazing at the “building outside the building” of collective power.

He felt that immense power, and he personally participated in it.

And Heavy Profound Chu Liang simply brought this immense army power, soaring up, stepping directly onto the head of the soldier evil green dragon – stepping on it until it exploded!

Stepping on it caused the Xia Army soldiers to scatter like falling rain, stepping on it caused the Marquis of Jing An of Xia Country to spit blood and fly.

And the corpses of those Xia Army soldiers completely turned into daggers and spears. As they fell, the wind howled, striking either the garrison on the mountain or the array eyes of the protective formation.

Heavy Profound Chu Liang himself continued to rise, directly facing the Great Xia’s Min King Yu Li Yang at the mountain peak.

Controlling a soldier array in battle is not simply stacking the power of a large number of soldiers. It is not like Jiang Wang’s initial descent onto the Star Moon Plain, simply enveloping immense power.

That kind of power was completely a gift from the Jade Balance Star Monarch; the army array was still a gathering of trickles of power.

Commanding an army array requires concrete penetration to every charging soldier, grasping their state, maintaining the array type at all times, stabilizing the array diagram, integrating drops into a surging tide…

The more soldiers there are, the harder it is to integrate them. The stronger the array diagram, the harder it is to master.

A hundred-thousand-strong army forming an array.

Only a master of the art of warfare can bear this responsibility!

And thus, it possesses great power that can surpass the extraordinary level.

Of course, an army array is like the exquisite mechanisms of the Mo Family, a chain-like warfare method. It goes from soldiers, team leaders, to district commanders, then to the main general, and finally to the commander… every step must fit tightly, without causing too much power waste. If any link has a problem, it will affect the whole.

The more powerful the soldier array diagram, the higher the requirements for the soldiers.

Without day after day of drill, engraving the soldier array positions into instinct, it is impossible to cope with truly high-intensity warfare!

The Autumn Kill Army is of course a world-renowned force. The soldier array displayed by the Autumn Kill Army at this moment is naturally one of the most top-tier kinds in contemporary times.

With the immense power added, Heavy Profound Chu Liang easily stepped on the soldier evil green dragon formed by Hua Hong Zhao’s array until it exploded, and continued to attack upwards.

As for Heavy Profound Chu Liang, he was not the main commander of Fa Xia, he did not need to consider the overall situation, he did not think about whether the Autumn Kill Army’s strong attack on Sword Edge Mountain was cost-effective. Cao All wanted him to put pressure on Yu Li Yang, so he just put pressure on Yu Li Yang, that’s all.

So, at this moment.

Leap high over Sword Edge Mountain.

Knife chop the Min King!

The hundred thousand Autumn Kill Army soldiers are united in momentum, the soldier evil condenses, operating the world’s most top-tier Autumn Kill array diagram – what level of power is this?

People saw Heavy Profound Chu Liang soar into the air, that world-famous Cut Life Knife in his hand seemed to have already separated heaven and earth.

This person, this knife, infinitely spread within their vision.

That dangerous Sword Edge Mountain, over three hundred *zhang* high, was actually like a mud pellet!

At this time.

That Yu Li Yang, standing on the mountaintop, with his long eyebrows and eyes flowing in the wind, looked down.

In the vast and endless conscious realm, he had already engaged Yan Ping in several rounds of pursuit. A collision at the Dao principle level would soon truly happen.

And in this real, undisputed world, Heavy Profound Chu Liang, driving his knife with the immense army array, his edge had also already made him perceive it.

The Fierce Slaughter holding the Cut Life Knife is also considered Dao.

Because this Dao is too strong, its killing power too terrifyingly overwhelming, it is difficult to grasp its truth in heaven and earth, and he has sat in the first position of God Arrival in the East Domain for several decades.

This person… is good at killing people’s lives!

Driving a hundred thousand strong army, making the Autumn Kill soldiers’ intent and life unite, controlling the war situation, this knife wants to cut down the life of a True Monarch!!

This place cannot be stayed in.

Yu Li Yang’s heart held an absurd feeling—

He, the dignified Min King of Great Xia, a True Monarch strong, personally guarding Sword Edge Mountain, with a bare minimum goal of holding it for half a month, was actually unable to achieve even that?

If this spread out, what kind of shame would it be?

But indeed, he could not stay.

If he were to completely display his True Monarch dignity at this moment, Wu King Si Jiao would also only be able to rush over and participate in the battle.

That is to say, a great decisive battle would occur right here.

Xia Country had the advantage of terrain, the strategic depth of twenty-one prefectures, the layered defenses built within the ten thousand *li* territory over these thirty-two years… facing the powerful Qi Army, how could he abandon these for the sake of his own honor and shame?

Not only could he not stay, he could not even leave slowly.

Because Yan Ping was already very clearly trying to lock onto him. If he delayed any longer, escaping without paying a certain price would be impossible.

Cao All, upon seeing Yu Li Yang, immediately pressed forward with his great army, his decisiveness, his spirit, truly not a disgrace to his commander, Jiang Shu!

This single step was a grand and upright momentum, simply using force against force, simply using momentum to压制 people.

He either provoked a decisive battle or retreated; there was no third choice!

That’s fine too.

The sigh of a strong expert who had derived his Dao, letting the ten thousand *li* sky all turn gloomy.

Yu Li Yang took a step forward, avoiding the edge of the Cut Life Knife and walking, landing beside Marquis of Jing An Hua Hong Zhao at the mountainside. With one hand raised, he instantly pulled up the power of the earth veins within a radius of three hundred *li*, as if pulling an invisible momentum dragon from the ground! He poured it into the protective array of the mountain!

Boom boom boom boom!

The second segment of the mountain, the third segment of the mountain, the fourth segment of the mountain, the fifth segment of the mountain…

The entire Sword Edge Mountain was connected as one, the power of the earth veins surging up into the sky.

The five-segment style Thick Virtue Carry Thing great array completely exploded.

Three hundred *li* of earth vein power increased layer by layer, the clouds in the nine heavens surged.

Amidst the rumbling.

A single particle of meteorite, over ten *zhang* square, seemed to probe out from the gap in the cloud layer. Coarse, heavy, fiercely stubborn.

Smashed in the air, igniting red flames, its whole body flowing with fire.

One, two, three…

In an instant, countless meteorites smashed down from the sky dome… it was a sky-covering, day-hiding rain of meteorites!

It seemed as if the nine heavenly divine mountain had exploded, bringing calamity to the human world.

Just the splashing flow of flames burned the sky into a sea of fire.

While warding off the Fierce Slaughter Knife, it also boomed towards the vast, sea-like great army of Qi Country.

And Yu Li Yang stretched out a hand towards Hua Hong Zhao, intending to take him away.

Hua Hong Zhao’s body, however, suddenly evaded!

“I cannot leave!”

This old general’s entire body bloomed with dazzling glorious light.

He rushed alone towards the outside of the mountain.

“Hua Fang Yu died here too easily, his death is not a pity, but destroying Sword Edge Mountain, his evil is difficult to redeem!”

“Hua Fang Yu is the shame of the Hua Family for a hundred years. If I seek life now, I am the Hua Family’s dirt for a hundred generations.”

His voice fell behind Hua Hong Zhao; he did not turn back even once. His hair bun, he did not know when it had become messy, his slightly frosted long hair fluttered behind him.

His golden body and jade marrow had already begun to collapse.

“From ancient times, there has never been a general who did not die and lost land, yet the country was strong.”

“Min King, please leave first for the sake of the country, allow this old man… to die first for the country!”

Yu Li Yang’s raised hand finally did not reach out again; Hua Hong Zhao in this state, forcing him to leave would mean no road to life…

He, a dignified True Monarch strong expert, could not even spare another glance at the scene of the Marquis of Jing An’s final charge.

Before the meteorite rain that boomed down from the exploded great array of Sword Edge Mountain, his body blurred, scattering in the chaotic heaven and earth Yuan Qi—

He had already been seen too much by Yan Ping! For the fastest and most error-free updates, please visit the mobile version:
