Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme-Chapter 949 - 587

Chapter 949: 587 Chapter 949: 587 “Hm!?”

Seeing the enemy charging toward his gate alone, the defensive commander on top of the high wall frowned and immediately retreated to the cover of his trusted aides.

Without flying troops or siege machinery, a Low-Order Lord attacking a city would, no matter what, find it impossible to bypass the wall.

But now the enemy, without constructing siege ladders or any other machinery, was charging toward the gate by himself.

What did this mean?

It meant the enemy was extremely confident, capable of slaying generals and capturing flags, even breaching the city single-handedly.

Such a person, if not a solo-act lord, would be a combat hero, with exceptional martial power.

To avoid being decapitated, the defensive general quickly retreated, and simultaneously shouted an order: “Release the arrows!”

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”

Upon the general’s command, ten thousand arrows were fired simultaneously, with hundreds of Jurchen soldiers releasing strong bows, the blanket of arrows chilling to the bone.

However, the incoming rider brandished his spear, and a fiery red fighting spirit erupted, not only increasing his speed dramatically but also fending off the arrows, turning thousands of them into mere sparks.

“As expected…”

Above the city wall, recognition tightened the defensive general’s gaze, already expecting this outcome.

He immediately shifted his attention to a Jurchen general clad in white armor beside him: “E Zhen!”

Upon this command, the Jurchen general understood at once and immediately drew her bow, locking onto the target and releasing a strong shot.

Heroic Skill: Dark Arrow (Fires a powerful arrow to strike the enemy, dealing damage equal to Physical Strength + Strong Bow level + 3 times weapon attack, with a 25% increase in power and a 50% increase in range when defending; cooldown time one hour)

…

A dark arrow hurts people, although not a high-level special skill, it is extremely practical, especially in defending a city, where it often can have a surprising effect.

Such an arrow, swooping through the air, perfectly intercepting the enemy’s trajectory, showcased the archer’s superb skill.

However…

“Clang!”

With a swing of the spear, sparks flew, and the arrow was deflected, posing no threat whatsoever.

With the Dark Arrow proving ineffective, the Jurchen general’s pupils contracted, and as she was about to draw her bow again for another shot, she saw the oncoming horseman raise his long spear and throw it fiercely.

“Whoosh!!!”

“Bang!!!”

Amidst the sounds of tearing air and heavy impact, the long spear hurled toward them and struck the wall with a crash, embedding itself into the stone, showcasing the incoming man’s Divine Power and valiance.

The Jurchen general’s pupils contracted, and she quickly came to a realization.

Looking at the long spear embedded in the wall and then at the opponent now close to the gate, she was overjoyed and immediately drew her bow.

Your spear is gone, let’s see how you block this!

The Jurchen general drew her bow, ready to shoot, but she did not expect that, astride his horse, Xu Yang had already fully drawn his bow.

Equipment Special Skill—Cloud Piercing.

With the Iron-Backed Bow and General Arrow, he pierced the clouds!

“Pfft!!!”

One arrow pierced the clouds, a flash of cold light, and a spray of blood burst forth violently.

Above the city wall, the Jurchen general fell to the ground, an arrow piercing through her right eye and exiting through her skull, dead beyond any doubt.

“E Zhen!!!”

The Jurchen defensive general cried out in shock, his eyes almost splitting and his heart chilled with fear.

However, below the city, Xu Yang paid no attention whatsoever, and continued to release several arrows, their cold light zooming out, not targeting the enemy’s heads but striking the wall, creating several footholds.

Following that, he spurred his horse forward, Xu Yang leapt into the air, stepping on a few arrows and shooting up the wall.

Without Martial Arts True Energy, Qinggong would be difficult to perform, but after a month of exploration, his Unrivaled Battle Energy could just barely be used as True Energy to execute some low-level Qinggong, like this light-body upward leap, “Sky-reaching Ladder!”

As for his horse…

Even if it was an Epic mount, without special skills, it couldn’t leap over a wall over ten zhang tall, and in the enemy’s territory, troops couldn’t be withdrawn and deployed at will, so it had to be left temporarily below the wall.

This was only to be expected.

If troop cards had no restrictions and could be deployed anytime and anywhere, what would be the point of a mass army besieging the city?

Just send a hero to fly over the wall, then release the troops from the space package, and taking over the city wall would be a breeze.

The Sky-reaching Tower wouldn’t leave such a loophole; there were restrictions on deploying and retracting troop cards, especially within enemy territory.

But this was not a significant impediment for Xu Yang, as he climbed onto the city wall in an instant using “Sky-reaching Ladder,” not only withdrawing the Reed Leaf Spear embedded in the wall but also drawing the Ancient ingot knife from his waist with a forward slash, sending a scarlet Sword Energy into the city wall, knocking down more than a dozen Jurchen archers.

“Not good!”

“Block him!”

“All men, charge up!”

Seeing this, the Jurchen commander defending the city changed his expression drastically and immediately ordered the Eight Banners Cavalry by his side to rush forward to fill the gap, while several nearby towers also turned their muzzles, firing powerful crossbow bolts.

However, with spear and sword in hand, Xu Yang immediately embarked on a bloody melee, causing a storm of blood and flesh, with no one able to match him.

The few threatening Arrow Tower Crossbows were either knocked aside by his long spear or blocked by flesh shields.

When there was nowhere to hide or block, he would ignite his Fighting Spirit, displaying the Unrivaled Secret Technique once more, with dragon shadows penetrating the formations, leaving corpses scattered about and chaos…

“My lord!”

In the rear formation, witnessing Xu Yang unleashing his Unrivaled might atop the city walls, Hua Mulan worried but couldn’t say much.

She could only order her soldiers to follow up, with a hundred Yellow Turban Foot Soldiers carrying the constructed Cloud Ladders charging toward the city wall, while Mulan archers followed closely, their arrows suppressing the Jurchen soldiers atop the wall.

And so, the battle went on…

“Quick, quick, quick!”

A flash of white light zipped by, and from the Jurchen camp, Jin Luo led a person out in a hurry, and then they saw that the city wall was engulfed in a flurry of war, with many of their own soldiers already dead or wounded, and the enemy’s forces ascending the wall, about to take over the gate.

Such a scene turned Jin Luo’s face pale, and he quickly shifted his gaze to the person beside him.

The people around him also frowned deeply, and with a wave of his hand, he immediately released more than thirty soldiers, most of whom were strangely-dressed magicians in black robes, accompanied by a few giant men with naked torsos and robust physiques.

“Hmm!?”

Xu Yang cast a glance and immediately furrowed his brow, swinging his ancient ingot knife to sever the head of the Jurchen guardian commander.

“You have killed the hero—Ke Xinga (Rare)”

“You have gained 30,000 Experience Points, 150 Reputation Points.”

“You have gained 10 Permanent Unrivaled Value, 100 temporary Unrivaled Value.”

“…”

The battle log refreshed extensively, but Xu Yang paid it no heed, lifting his bow to fire an arrow at the approaching black-robed magicians.

“Pfft!!!”

“You have killed a Black Lotus Sect Magician!”

“You have gained 3,000 Experience Points, 20 Reputation Points.”

“…”

“Black Lotus Sect Magician?”

“Mage troops!”

Xu Yang’s eyes narrowed with focus, immediately dropping the remnants of the defeated soldiers around him, raising his spear and leaping down from the city wall, charging straight towards the dark-faced magician.

Troop Introduction: Reincarnation without rest, the compassionate heart of the Bodhisattva!

It’s you again, you unlucky creature!

Looking at these Black Lotus disciples and recalling the related troop information, Xu Yang didn’t hesitate to unleash his Unrivaled power again, with Fierce Dragon Breaking Army rushing forward, denying these mage troops any chance to act.

However!

Seeing Xu Yang charging towards him furiously, the Black Lotus Lord brought by Jin Luo was also taken aback, and immediately commanded the Black Lotus magicians to act.

“Mercy of the Bodhisattva, infinite Boxun!”

The twenty or so Black Lotus magicians raised their wands, chanting spells, triggering a surge of dark currents that instantly obscured their formation.

With sounds of flesh bursting and various eerie noises, several giant silhouettes emerged, confronting the phantoms head-on.

Troop Introduction: Mercy of the Bodhisattva, salvation for all!

…

Several giant silhouettes stepped out from the dark currents, their upper bodies naked and not clothed at all, with the only weapon and equipment being the blood-red talismans covering their bodies—the Black Lotus Curse Clothing.

This is the Black Lotus Civilization, the scariest First-Order troop from the Great Black Buddha Mother Sect, a special existence that can only be created with the spellcasting of the Black Lotus magicians and the transformation of Black Lotus warriors— the Black Lotus Warrior (Blood Puppet).

Although it is a First-Order troop, with formidable Physical Attributes of thirty-eight points, sixty protection, forty magic damage, and perfect Black Lotus Curse Clothing without any flaws or vulnerabilities, as well as combat skills that are all on Second Order, its battle prowess could be considered extremely terrifying even amongst Second Order troops.

Furthermore, with the Special Skill “Blood Flesh Puppet” in effect, it is a flesh-and-blood constructed tank on the battlefield, charging and rampaging, totally unstoppable.

Even though there are only five such Blood Flesh Puppets, their combat capability is equivalent to or even surpasses that of hundreds of Heavy Infantry.

This is the strength of Magic clan troops!

Xu Yang charged forward, his person and spear merging as one, turning into a streak of cold light accompanied by a dragon’s enraged roar, brutally colliding into one of the Blood Flesh Puppets.

“Pfft!!!”

With a muffled sound, blood splattered as the cold spear broke through defenses, tearing apart the crimson talisman and piercing into the chest of the puppet.

If it were an ordinary troop, it would have been killed instantly, but the Blood Flesh Puppet merely quivered before swinging a mighty fist directly at Xu Yang.
