nChapter 550: The Spirit of the Army (2)

nTranslator: 54Y6YU33Y

nIt was like a meat grinder on the battlefield.

nThese Ki Refiners would usually be invited to set the rules and not personally break the rules.

nBut now, the gate of Dragon Crouching Pass had suddenly lost control. Naturally, one of the three elite troops had encountered a problem.

nTo be able to kill all eight Qi Practitioners at the True Form Realm without a sound, without even letting out a sound, it was obviously impossible for the opponent to be at the Void Refinement Realm.

nIn other words, the enemy had dispatched at least one cultivator of the Returning Origin Stage.

nAfter sensing the sudden movement, the Guiyuan realm cultivators guarding the Dragon Crouching Pass also approached the city gate as quickly as possible. They wanted to close the inner gate of the city wall before the unknown army outside broke into the city wall.

nHowever, he had just left the house.

nHe saw a figure covered in a black robe.

nThe cultivator guarding the Dragon Crouching Pass sensed a powerful aura from the other party and could not help but narrow his eyes. “Who are you? Why did he attack for no reason? Aren’t you afraid of the endless pursuit of our Great Zhou?”

nThe black-robed figure did not speak.

nHe only showed the weapon in his hand.

nOn the other side.

nAfter the thick city wall was opened, it was not long before it was closed by the guards who regained control of the gate.

nHowever, in just a few minutes, more than half of the Star Moon Army had already rushed into the Dragon Crouching Pass.

nInstantly, the entire Dragon Conqueror Pass was in an uproar.

nThe panicked soldiers raised their weapons, but they did not dare to go down and fight the Star Moon Army.

nNormally, this would not have happened.

nAfter all, regardless of whether it was Dragon Subdue Pass, Tiger Subdue Pass, or Futian Pass, the troops stationed there were all the most elite troops from various places.

nBut now, under the Emperor’s order, all the elite soldiers in the front lines of Dragon Subdue Pass, Tiger Subdue Pass, and Futian Pass had been transferred out. Those who stayed were either new recruits who had just passed the conscription order, or the old, weak, sick, and disabled who did not have much combat strength.

nFurthermore, 80% of the troops stationed in these three cities had followed the army to the east to attack North Ice River Town. The remaining three cities only had 300,000 soldiers.

nIn fact, these three passes were so powerful that one man could block ten thousand men.

nEven if each city only had an average of 100,000 men left, without an army of 400,000 to 500,000 men, it would be impossible for them to reach the city walls.

nNow, in the entire northwest, without the help of the Qin army, other than the Star Moon Army, there was no one who could break through the defense of the Great Zhou.

nHowever, the main force of the Starmoon Troop was still in the Northeast Wing City. Moreover, the commander’s life and death were unknown. How could they possibly gather hundreds of thousands of troops?

nTherefore, this arrangement was very reasonable.

nHowever, he did not expect that the Star-Moon Army would not care about martial ethics either. They actually directly brought out a powerful Qi Refiner of the Returning to the Origin realm to pull the rug out of Futian Pass.

nLi Ruxing had just turned one year old and was still crying for milk. One night, the nanny who was feeding her suddenly found a mysterious token in her hand.

nThe nanny did not dare to delay and told Li Nanfeng the news.

nEveryone in the Li family was alarmed.

nHowever, when they saw the design of the token, everyone was shocked.

nThat was because the token was left behind by Li Tianyou, the ancestor of the Li family, to control the Seven Kill Token of the hidden guards.

nWith the Seven Kill Token, one could mobilize the most mysterious and powerful secret guards of the Li family.

nSuch an important thing had appeared in Li Ruxing’s hands.

nThe Li family was both happy and worried about this.

nHe was happy that the old ancestor had not passed away. This Seven Kill Order had disappeared for hundreds of years. Now that it could appear in Li Ruxing’s hands, it was the best proof.

nWhat was worrying was that this token was of great importance to the Li family, but it had appeared in the hands of a child who was crying pitifully.

nHowever, this was the will of their ancestor after all. The Li family did not dare to disobey. They could only choose to accept it and secretly strengthen the cultivation of Li Ruxing.

nLater on, as Li Ruxing grew up.

nShe began to show all kinds of extraordinary talents.

nOrdinary people might have to read it dozens of times to remember the general ancient books, but she only needed to read it once to remember them completely. She could also understand the meaning and make answers or modifications.

nEver since she realized that her talent was different from ordinary people, she began to hide it in front of everyone.

nEspecially after Li Yueming grew up, he became more and more sharp.

nShe became even more lazy and low-key.

nThe Great Zhou might allow the Li family to have a disciple who showed off his abilities, but they would definitely not allow the Li family to have two all-rounder geniuses with heaven-defying talent.

nAs the heir of the Li family, Li Yueming had too many eyes on him. He definitely couldn’t keep a low profile.

nTherefore, Li Ruxing took the initiative to hide his sharp side.

nHe only relied on his own judgment of the situation and secretly used the power of the secret guards to set up a backup plan.

nEver since he heard that Li Yueming had gone to the Northern Lands to become a general, he had been very excited.

nLi Ruxing quickly guessed Li Yueming’s next intention and immediately set up many backup plans in the northwest.

nThe Great Zhou would probably never have imagined that the Li family’s secret guards would sneak into the key troops of the Dragon Subdue Pass and Tiger Subdue Pass, which would even have their ancestral graves dug up and investigated.

nDecades ago, Li Ruxing had planted many seeds.

nNow, these seeds had germinated and grown into a big tree.

nUnder the situation where the natural barrier city was broken.

nA group of new recruits and the old, weak, and sick were fighting against the furious Star Moon Army.

nOne could imagine the outcome of the battle.

nAfter Li Ruxing entered the city, he did not lead his troops to attack the Great Zhou soldiers on the city wall. After all, although the Great Zhou soldiers on the city wall were old, weak, sick, and disabled, even rabbits would bite when they were cornered, not to mention that the Star Moon Army did not have an absolute advantage.

n‘l’neretore, Ll Ruxlng sent people to Pile up tall naystacKs under tne City wall, preparing to burn the city wall and the entire city.

nThick smoke filled the northwest. The Great Zhou soldiers guarding the city walls were devoured by the poisonous smoke and flames, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers were killed.

nLi Ruxing was the only one who didn’t feel satisfied.

nHe ordered his men to move out all the gunpowder and siege equipment in the city. After smashing a huge hole dozens of meters wide in Dragon Crouching

nPass, he left with the Stars and Moon Troop who had eaten and drunk their fill.

nDragon Crouching Pass was flanked by tall mountains, so even if the entire city was set on fire, it would not spread far.

nSome people in other towns in the southeast might have noticed the abnormality here, but it took time to transmit information. Under the leadership of Li Ruxing, the Star Moon Army was like a bird with wings.

nNo matter what kind of mountains and rivers they encountered, Li Ruxing could identify them in the shortest time possible.

nSince she was young, she had liked to read all kinds of provincial and county annals. Combining the records of mountains and rivers on them, she compared them with the corresponding geomancy maps to determine the geographical situation of the Great Zhou and several other countries.

nAt this moment, her photographic memory was like a cheat.

nNo matter where she went, she would never get lost and would always be on the best route.

nUnder normal circumstances, it would take at least a month for a cavalry to rush from Futian Pass to Tiger Subdue Pass.

nHowever, under the leadership of Li Ruxing, the Star Moon Troop only took thirteen days to arrive.

nBy the time the Star-Moon Troop arrived at Tiger Subdue Pass, only two-thirds of the scouts who had delivered the news of the fall of Dragon Subdue Pass had left.

nAfter resting on the spot for a day, he ate his fill and slept soundly.

nUnder the incredulous gazes of all the soldiers of the Star Moon Army…Li Ruxing waved his hand, and the sturdy gate that could withstand the onslaught of a million soldiers for dozens of days was opened with a loud bang!!!

nLi Ruxing’s hair was casually scattered on his shoulders. His originally handsome face was now filled with a murderous aura. The armor forged from refined iron was covered in specks of blood.

nShe clamped the horse’s belly with her legs, and the scarlet spiritual horse took the lead and headed towards the city gate like a bolt of lightning.

nBehind her.

nThe Starmoon Troop dived toward the city wall in silence as usual.

nNo one spoke.

nOne had to know that this was an army of hundreds of thousands of people!!!

nNow, other than the sound of breathing and the rapid galloping of horses, there was actually no extra sound!

nAt this moment.

nThe killing intent of the soldiers of the Star Moon Army was mixed with incomparable anger, so dense that it was almost tangible!

nHe looked at the wolf-like and tiger-like troops under his feet.

nAll the soldiers in the Tiger Subdue Pass were shocked!!!

nThe general who had just received the news and had yet to react exclaimed,”How is that possible? Where did nearly 100,000 soldiers with military souls come from in this bitterly cold land of the northwest?”

n
