Chapter 178: All of them are cunning old bitches, all coming out to harm people!
At this moment, a soldier hurriedly ran to the front of Duke Wuxi to report the situation.
On the side of the Dayue Dynasty, the situation was the same.
After hearing this, Duke Wuxi’s expression became solemn, and he shouted at the opposite person, “Let’s temporarily stop the war and not let others take advantage! Let’s use this place as the boundary, and each of us will search for the treasure without stepping into the other’s territory!”
“Duke’s Wuxi words are agreeable to me!” The general on the opposite side nodded.
With that, the battle was temporarily halted.
However, both sides sent reinforcements to guard the area, forming a clear boundary.
At this time, the experts had already broken into the Qinglong Mountain Range.
However, the Qinglong Mountain Range is vast, and even if the treasure points to the head of the dragon in the mountain range and even marks the four steep cliffs, it is still quite difficult to find the treasure in this area.
However, they were all experienced experts, and they knew what to do with just a turn of their minds – follow the army of Duke Wuxi.
Duke Wuxi had a large force and was also a local hunter, so it would certainly be easier for him to find the treasure than them.
Once the treasure appeared, they would make a move and seize it, simple and convenient.
Therefore, they all took turns squatting near the army of Duke Wuxi, waiting to take advantage.
Duke Wuxi looked up and saw this group of experts lurking around, feeling extremely angry and frustrated.
Because these people were useless against ordinary soldiers.
To deal with them, only the experts of the same level were capable.
However, there were too many experts on the other side, making it impossible to fight against them.
Even if they could engage in battle, once they hid deep within the mountains, it would be difficult to catch up with them, especially troublesome.
“My lord, what do we do now?” the strategist, Mr. Fengchu, asked cautiously.
“Let’s not worry about them for now!” Duke Wuxi waved his hand in annoyance.
“But below the mountains, there is also a group of warriors squatting, numbering over 3,000!” Mr. Fengchu asked again.
“Block them, don’t let them come up! If we can’t handle the experts, can’t we handle them?” Duke Wuxi said angrily.
“Yes, my lord!” Mr. Fengchu smiled bitterly, feeling very pessimistic.
Blocking them temporarily was possible, but blocking them forever was impossible!
There were only over 3,000 people below, but their numbers would continue to increase.
When the number reached tens of thousands, or even 20,000, could their forces still hold them back?
By that time, it would inevitably result in significant casualties.
The cost would be too great!
However, letting them in would be even more dangerous, with even greater casualties.
Because in the wild jungle, these warriors can make use of their advantages, using their light skills to move around and launch sneak attacks and assassinations. Meanwhile, their soldiers are at a disadvantage with their limited mobility and become easy targets.
Therefore, they can only keep them blocked outside and suppress them with the advantage of their larger army.
After two days, just as Mr. Fengchu had anticipated, more and more warriors gathered and finally exceeded tens of thousands.
They united and attempted two surprise attacks, but were repelled.
However, the situation was becoming more and more dire for Duke Wuxi.
At this time, the experts from the Six Doors had arrived.
They looked at the current situation and analyzed the pros and cons.
“When we came here, the Chief had already given orders. This operation is secondary to obtaining the treasure; our main goal is to severely injure Duke Wuxi’s military strength. Now we have a great opportunity ~!”
The expert in charge of leading the team of the Six Doors, named Wuqing, smiled and said, “Look here, currently both sides are in a standoff, like fire and water! We can lead this group of warriors to break through the blockade, which will definitely heavily weaken Duke Wuxi’s army!”
“Master Wuqing is absolutely right, but what should we do next?” Everyone nodded.
“Let’s wait for two more days until there are more warriors, and then we will take action! Additionally, this operation will be more covert. Thousand-Faced Langjun, you put on make-up for everyone!”
“Alright, boss!” A young man with an ordinary appearance nodded.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and the number of warriors gathered here has increased rapidly, reaching an astonishing .
The pressure on Duke Wuxi was growing, forcing him to dispatch an additional 100,000 troops.
A total of 400,000 troops were firmly guarding the Qinglong Mountain Range.
The Six Doors felt it was time to act.
So, disguised as ordinary martial artists, they stepped forward.
“Fellow heroes, I believe we can’t wait any longer!” Wuqing shouted loud, “Duke Wuxi’s army is guarding all major passages and not allowing us in! The experts can come and go as they please, entering the Qinglong Mountain Range one step ahead! The other end of the Qinglong Mountain Range is probably the same! Sooner or later, the Slanted Moon Treasure will fall into their hands. Are you all willing to accept that? Did we come here just to watch others get the treasure while we return empty-handed?”
“We are unwilling, but what can we do? Duke Wuxi has heavily guarded the area, and our strength is weak. We simply cannot break through!”
“Without the power of the innate force, we’ll be pierced like hedgehogs with their arrows as soon as we get close!”
“The treasure is important, but our lives are even more important!”
“We have no other choice!”
…
Everyone complained one after another.
“Fellow heroes, I understand everyone’s difficulties, so why not take a gamble! We have innate powerhouses here, so let our pre-celestial powerhouses lead the way and break through, paving the way for you all to follow. This way, we can enter the Qinglong Mountain Range!” Wuqing exclaimed loudly, revealing his cultivation level.
“You’re a innate powerhouse!” everyone exclaimed in shock.
Then, four more people stood beside Wuqing, displaying their own cultivation levels.
“They’re all innate powerhouses! Five pre-celestial powerhouses!” everyone was shocked.
“Fellow heroes, let us lead the way and guide you all into the Qinglong Mountain Range!” Wuqing said with righteousness, “I plan to divide our forces into five groups, each led by a pre-celestial powerhouse. This way, we can break through Duke Wuxi’s army!”
By dividing their forces, instead of concentrating them, they could cause significant damage to Duke Wuxi’s army.
The warriors at the scene looked at each other, some tempted by the idea.
This was indeed a good plan, although they knew the Six Doors had ulterior motives, they were willing to be used.
“Alright! I agree!”
“Only in this way do we have a chance to enter the Qinglong Mountain Range and obtain the treasure!”
“Thank you to the five heroes!”
…
Everyone responded one after another.
The Six Doors and others exchanged glances, revealing a hint of satisfaction.
“Wait!” an ordinary-looking old man raised his hand and stepped forward.
The Six Doors and others froze as Wuqing’s gaze flickered. He smiled and asked, “Hero, do you have a different opinion?”
“We only have five pre-celestial powerhouses, is that enough?” the old man chuckled, “Duke Wuxi’s army already has five innate powerhouses. If they take action, they can definitely stop you all!”
“So, what does the senior suggest…”
“Actually, I am also a innate powerhouse. I can open another path for us! With that, we will have six forces, and they will have to divide their attention!” the old man said confidently, releasing his powerful aura.
“Another innate powerhouse!” someone exclaimed.
Ruthless’s face lit up with a happy smile, “That would be much appreciated, senior!”
“Wait a minute!” someone else called out.
Everyone turned their heads to see an ordinary middle-aged man. Wuqing asked, “What can I do for you, hero?”
“How can I miss out on such a good opportunity?” the man walked out, carrying an axe and smiling, “Actually, I am also a innate powerhouse! Let me open another path!”
A strong innate force followed his words!
“Another innate powerhouse!” someone exclaimed.
Wuqing and the others’ smiles grew brighter, “Of course, you’re most welcome!”
“Wait a minute! I also want to join!” another innate stepped forward, releasing a powerful aura.
“I can contribute with my limited power!” The fourth innate appeared.
“I can’t stand Duke Wuxi, so count me in on this good opportunity!” The fifth innate appeared.
Then came the sixth, seventh, eighth…
One after another, more innate powerhouses emerged.
Everyone was stunned!
Even the members of the Six Doors were dumbfounded!
Wow!
A total of fifteen innate powerhouses!
Adding the five innate powerhouses from the Six Doors, that made twenty!
No one could have imagined that among this group of cultivators, there were so many innate experts!
Each of them was cunning, waiting for this moment to harm others!
Many people trembled in fear!
They were so powerful and yet so devious, making it increasingly difficult to survive in the martial world!
After some brief calculation, it was decided that the five strongest pre-celestial powerhouses would infiltrate Duke Wuxi’s army, attracting their innate experts and holding them back.
Then, the other fifteen innate powerhouses would lead their own forces to attack Duke Wuxi’s army.
In this way, they could not only break through the army but also cause significant losses to the enemy.
After discussing the plan, everyone decided to take immediate action.
The five most powerful innate powerhouses swiftly charged into the army.
With a single palm strike, they took the lives of tens of people.
“These are pre-celestial powerhouses! Quickly, call the five reinforcements!”
Out from the military camp came five pre-celestial powerhouses.
“Using strength to bully the weak, how shameless!”
“Let me handle you!”
…
One against one, it was an evenly matched battle.
At this moment, the other fifteen pre-celestial powerhouses also made their move.
“Swoosh” “Swoosh”…
Like sharp swords, they pierced through Duke Wuxi’s army, causing chaos and clearing a bloody path.
Seeing this, other post-celestial cultivators followed through the path, howling as they charged forward.
It was a brutal and blood-soaked journey, with rivers of blood flowing!
However, there were no more pre-celestial experts on Duke Wuxi’s side, so they could only watch helplessly as the intruders broke through.
“Today’s killings are truly satisfying! We have finally vented our frustrations from these past days!”
“Duke Wuxi, you have met your match!”
“Qinglong Mountain Range, here I come! Haha!”
“The Slanted Moon Treasure will be mine!”
…
They entered the Qinglong Mountain Range and disappeared.
All that remained were bodies scattered on the ground and a land stained with blood.
That night, the group of martial artists not only broke through Duke Wuxi’s defensive line but also annihilated 100,000 soldiers, causing heavy casualties for Duke Wuxi!
When Duke Wuxi received this devastating news, his face turned black, almost spitting out blood in anger.
“Very well! I have been tricked!”
“Damn it!”
“All of you, you all deserve to die!”
That night, Duke Wuxi flew into a rage, smashing everything inside his tent.
On the other side of the Qinglong Mountain Range, within the territory of the Dayue Dynasty, a similar scene was unfolding.
Innate experts from the former Slanted Moon Dynasty, disguised as experts from other countries, led an uprising and broke through the defensive line of the Dayue Dynasty’s army, charging into the Qinglong Mountain Range.
The Dayue Dynasty suffered heavy losses, with more than 80,000 casualties!
