“Why are they so huge…”
Ye Xun’s expression was gloomy as he looked at the huge shadows in front of him. A chill ran down his spine.
Ji Wujun, the Sword God, Huang Chuan, Ling Xiao, and the others had ugly expressions. They could not calculate how huge the Qiangliang Race was, but they had never encountered such a huge creature.
How huge were they?
At that moment, the soldiers of Great Jing and the martial arts experts were all silent. In the face of the approaching enemy in the distance, they all felt an unprecedented surge of pressure. That pressure froze their blood.
The Qiangliang Race only said one sentence and did not say anything else. They just continued to approach Great Jing. They were not fast, and it was precisely because they were not fast that the soldiers of Great Jing were terrified. The slow approach of death was the most terrifying.
Right at this moment!
Boom!
A powerful aura burst out from Great Jing’s military camps. Soldiers surrounded a tower and formed a formation. In an instant, all the soldiers felt their luck being mobilized and integrated with a vast flow of luck.
The luck of Great Jing!
“This war is a war to protect our country. There is no way out. It is a war to avenge the shame of mankind and for the glory of Great Jing!”
A loud voice resounded in the hearts of all the people of Great Jing. It was Xu Tianji. He asked the soldiers and officers of the Luck Department to gather their luck and form a communication link so that his voice could be transmitted to everyone’s hearts. His tone was firm and reassuring.
“Countless years ago, humans were driven to the endless ocean by the
Qiangliang Race. Right now, Great Jing has been driven to the Great Wilderness by the demons from the endless ocean. The Qiangliang Race would not allow us to sit by and grow. If that is the case, where should we escape to?”
“There’s nowhere to run! Either fight until the enemy retreats, or accept death and humiliation. Think about your family, think about your reason for joining the army, think about your magnificent Great Jing!”
“Great Jing has been founded for 291 years. How many storms have we
experienced and how many dynasties have we absorbed? Now, we gathered to form you and I. This is no longer the battle for Great Jing, but the battle for the Human Race. This is because the Human Race in the endless ocean cannot withstand the demons that defeated the Sacred Dynasty. We are already staying away from the demons. If we cannot survive now, what hope do the
Human Race have?”
“Hold your weapons tightly and prepare to fight to the death. Today, either we win or I will die here with you. Kill!”
Xu Tianji’s words were like sharp blades stabbing into everyone’s hearts. His tone stirred up everyone’s emotions, especially in such a dangerous situation.
“Kill!”
In front of the Barren Province’s city, shouts of killing sounded in unison from hundreds of thousands of miles around. It was earth-shattering, and the dust storm in the distance dissipated a little.
Huang Chuan looked at the soldiers who were so excited that their eyes were bloodshot and sighed. “That old man is still so good at boosting morale.”
There was a reason why Xu Tianji was able to occupy the position of commander-in-chief of the entire army for several eras of the Jing Dynasty, and it was not because of his connections.
Boom! Boom! Boom…
Figures flew up one after another, all of them emitting powerful auras. All of them were in the Grotto-heaven realm. Even Guan Tongyou appeared. He took the lead and rushed to the front line. Seeing this, Ji Wujun did not say anything else and shot with the Dragon Soul Silver Spear.
Within the provincial minister’s mansion.
Jiang Han was also excited by Xu Tianji’s speech. He clapped his hands and said, “As expected of a general who could stay at the top for seven eras of the Jing Dynasty. Impressive. No matter what, we have to fight this war!”
Even though the officials at the side were still nervous, their eyes revealed anticipation.
The enemy was terrifying, but Great Jing was no longer the same as before!
Guan Tongyou flew over the heads of the soldiers at high speed, causing countless people to look up at him. Some recognized him, but there were many who did not know his identity. However, since he dared to take the lead and attack, it was enough to prove his strength and bring about a belief among the soldiers of Great Jing.
Great Jing did not lack top experts!
Guan Tongyou held a halberd in his hand and wore a white robe. He exuded the domineering aura of a Martial Dao master. His eyes were like an eagle as he stared at the Qiangliang Race in the distance. When he flew out of the Great Jing military camps, he did not slow down. Instead, he sped up.
Boom!
His true qi exploded, forming a spectacular flame visible to the naked eye that surrounded him. In an instant, a white flood dragon condensed and was ten thousand feet long as he charged forward.
“Formation, Dragon of Luck!”
Xu Tianji’s voice sounded again. All the soldiers of Great Jing mobilized their luck at the same time. The martial artists who were not soldiers could only look on. They saw the bodies of every soldier emitting a faint aura that condensed above the army. This scene was very spectacular.
Luck Battle Formation!
Any Sovereign Dynasty could grasp such a formation. A hundred years ago, Great Jing suffered a loss in front of the Luck Formation of Fengtian. After that, the emperors of each era of the Jing Dynasty placed the Luck Department in an important position and asked the Luck Department to join hands with the army to hone their Luck Formations.
Right now, Great Jing’s luck was so strong that all the soldiers formed a formation together. The dragon of luck that formed was similar to the longest river in the world as it occupied the sky above Great Jing’s military camps.
“You overestimate your abilities!”
The cold snort that came from the Qiangliang Race sounded like a heavy hammer that smashed into everyone’s hearts.
Boom—
The dust storm that covered the sky was swept away and a figure was the first to rush out. It was a living being with the head of a tiger and the body of a
human. It had slender limbs and dark red hair on the surface of its body. It was charging towards Guan Tongyou at an extremely fast speed!
Guan Tongyou stabbed with his halberd. The white dragon of true qi on his body transformed into a white light that streaked across the sky and collided with the Qiangliang warrior.
The Qiangliang warrior blocked with its arms. The white light beam struck its thousand-foot-tall body and split into strands of white airwaves. Even though the Qiangliang warrior was not killed in one blow, it was still pushed back.
That scene boosted the morale of the soldiers at the front line. “They don’t seem to be as strong as they look!”
“As expected, they are just deliberately mystifying things!”
“Even though they are still terrifyingly huge, at least they don’t look as invincible as before.”
“He’s Saint Guan? As expected of the ancestor of martial arts!”
Guan Tongyou founded the Heaven-Deriving Martial Law and promoted the development of Great Jing’s martial arts scene. He was respected as the Martial Ancestor by the younger generation and was almost as exalted as the Dao Ancestor.
However, the Qiangliang warrior who was repelled quickly stabilized its bodies. From the dust storm behind it, Qiangliang warriors surged out one after another. Most of them were thousands of feet tall, and all of them had the head of a tiger and the body of a human. It was as if mountains were crashing into the Great Jing’s military camps, setting off terrifying strong winds that shook the earth and scattered the sea of clouds along the way.
Guan Tongyou waved his halberd and killed his way into the group of Qiangliang warriors. His movement technique was extremely fast. He waved his halberd with one hand and executed martial arts techniques with the other. The martial arts techniques formed by the abilities of many ferocious beasts were casually executed.
In the face of the siege of the Qiangliang warriors, Guan Tongyou was like an ant fighting against a human army. The difference in physique was huge, but his momentum was not inferior to the enemy.
However, no matter how strong he was, he could not stop the entire Qiangliang Race. More and more Qiangliang warriors passed by him and attacked Great Jing’s armies.
At the end of the earth, there was still a terrifying figure that had yet to erupt from the dust. He walked very slowly, emitting an aura that made the world despair.
“Kill!”
Xu Tianji’s shout sounded. The Dragon of Luck condensed from hundreds of millions of soldiers roared and charged towards the Qiangliang warriors.
The Qiangliang warriors at the front opened their bloody mouths, and their tongues were like huge pythons. The huge pythons opened their mouths and spat out dark green poisonous arrows. It collided with the Dragon of Luck like a torrential rain, but it was instantly dispersed by the Dragon of Luck.
With a loud bang!
The Qiangliang warriors were scattered by the Dragon of Luck and turned into a bloody mist that exploded in the air. Flesh and blood sprinkled down like rain.
This scene surprised all the soldiers. As expected, the Qiangliang Race was not as powerful as they seemed.
“Hmph, is this what humans rely on?”
The cold voice sounded again. Just as it finished speaking, the dust storm that covered the sky was pierced. A huge bone spear flew out and flew tens of thousands of miles away at an extremely fast speed, scattering the Dragon of Luck!
The powerful Dragon of Luck had only just revealed its might before it was instantly dispersed!
The soldiers of Great Jing were tongue-tied, but when they heard the voice in their hearts, all of them became ferocious. Under the command of the various generals, millions of soldiers were dispatched.
The war had begun!
This time, it was not a war between the Luck Dynasty, but a war between races!
Within Longqi Mountain.
Jiang Changsheng was currently refining pills. His clone had already returned to the courtyard and handed over the Classic of Mountains and Seas and the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror before integrating into his body.
He began to flip through the pages of the Classic of Mountains and Seas. The number of pages in the Classic of Mountains and Seas had exceeded a thousand. He could sense the powerful power contained in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, which made him smile.
As for the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror, it needed to reflect everything in the world before it could control this martial arts world. Its growth speed was slower than the Classic of Mountains and Seas, but its upper limit was definitely higher.
Bai Qi laid beside him and asked, “Master, has the Barren Province gone to war?”
Even though she did not participate in the war, her heart had always been burdened by this war.
Jiang Tianming and Tai Xi also looked at Jiang Changsheng. Tai Wa was not in the courtyard and had gone to the Jade Bone Green Bamboo Forest to stare blankly. White Dragon was still sleeping soundly.
Jiang Changsheng calmly said, “Yes.”
When Bai Qi heard that, she immediately became nervous and asked, “Who has the upper hand?”
“Qiangliang Race.”
Even though Bai Qi had guessed that such a situation might happen, she was still surprised. After all, in his opinion, Great Jing was really strong. Jiang Tianming came over and asked, “Great-grandfather, can we win?”
Jiang Changsheng said, “Hard to say.”
After saying that, he stood up and began to stretch his muscles.
“Are you going to take action?” Bai Qi asked excitedly.
Jiang Changsheng said, “The current Human Race is indeed inferior to the Qiangliang Race. If they are evenly matched, I am naturally too lazy to interfere. However, that guy is about to lose his patience.”
“Who is that guy?”
“Take good care of the courtyard.”
After Jiang Changsheng said that, he burrowed underground and disappeared.
Jiang Tianming immediately laid down and carefully touched the ground, but he could not find a hole. He could not help but be curious. How did his great-grandfather travel underground?
The mountains and rivers were shattered, and the ground was stained with blood. Corpses were everywhere. Other than the corpses of humans, there were also the corpses of the Qiangliang Race, which were as big as mountains.
The battle between the two races had entered a stalemate. The soldiers of Great Jing were already on high alert. They couldn’t care less about their fear and were all fighting a bloody war.
Even though the Qiangliang Race was powerful, they were not invincible. Moreover, the Qiangliang Race only sent tens of thousands of warriors this time, allowing the Human Race to see hope.
Mu Lingluo’s white clothes were stained with blood. She held the Heaven Imprisoning Stone Sword and entered a state of battle intent. Her eyes were cold as she faced a Qiangliang warrior alone without falling into a disadvantage.
Golden Crow circled in the sky with flames burning on its body. Its body quickly expanded and its wingspan was a thousand feet wide. It was extremely eye-catching as it spat fire at the Qiangliang warriors on the battlefield..
