Shennong Dao Master-Chapter 1396 - 24: Absolute Heaven and Earth · Battle of Cultivators (Part 2)

In the dark night, a sword light illuminated Zang He's eyes.

"What, you—"

"Boom!"

Zang He immediately growled, throwing his trusted aide towards the sword light, and his blood surged as he charged towards the other side of the wall.

The embarrassing part for a martial artist is here; they cannot tunnel underground when fleeing, and until they reach the Heavenly Gang Realm, they cannot fly.

"Trying to run?! I've been camping out here for days, just waiting to devour this big piece of meat, where do you think you're going!"

Long Xiao is now seventh-grade, and Zang He is also seventh-grade, but although both are seventh-grade, they are not in the same league at all.

Long Xiao is the top sword cultivator in Pinghai State! Zang He's original realm wasn't even first-grade.

Blocking one sword without dying; that was Zang He erupting at the brink of death due to Long Xiao's prolonged battle before.

But he absolutely couldn't block the second sword.

"Splurt~"

Zang He's head flew up, and his body was dismembered in mid-air.

The last scene he saw was the City Lord Mansion burning in the night, a young man in Sinong Yunfu on a high platform looking at a token.

"I should've known better than to overexert myself last night, otherwise how could I not withstand even two swords, ah, women are a curse..."

Zang He felt endless regret as his consciousness was completely extinguished.

"Hmm?"

Zhao Xing suddenly noticed a glow appearing on his body, followed by a warm current washing over him.

"I've reached mid seventh-grade?"

"I obviously didn't kill anyone upon entering the city, but this 'power' keeps shifting towards me."

"Random probability events have become certain events."

Yan Jiu's fortune, across the Xuanhuang Realm, the only ones exceeding his are probably Wu Yue God and Emperor Wu.

Not playing the Fortune Dynasty game, Yan Jiu is the ultimate in ordinary cultivation.

Of course, Wu Yue God is rather exceptional and slightly higher than himself.

Such high-level fortune, leading to after entering the city, no matter who kills, most of it transfers to himself.

After Long Xiao chopped Zang He to death, he naturally restored himself to mid seventh-grade.

"Earthly Evil Realm, I can tunnel underground now, I finally feel the earth veins existing." Zhao Xing mused.

Before in eighth-grade and ninth-grade, he couldn't tunnel underground, as if there were no earth veins between heaven and earth.

Now it's different.

"This feeling is like being on another layer, only I can sense it, I can display Earthly Evil Realm strength, others are on another layer, those in the same layer as me, in the entire city, are probably only about twenty to thirty people." Zhao Xing thought to himself.

Whoosh~

He immediately left the city.

The effect of killing seventh-grade for ascending from seventh-grade to sixth-grade is the greatest; if killing eighth and ninth-grade, it requires merging tens of thousands to upgrade.

The effect transfer to those small soldiers should let the Ten Suns Army receive it best.

With more cultivators, his Ten Suns Army's mobility is stronger, and combat power also higher.

Long Xiao and others can even form a battle formation.

Outside the Wind Witch City, Zhao Xing looked at the bloodstained token, constantly trembling, then crushed it.

This was an alert token, unknown from where, but it's best not to respond.

"Mr. Zhao, you can come in now."

Before dawn, the battle was completely over.

Zhao Xing's men successfully occupied Wind Witch City.

Coming back to Wind Witch City again, Xia Jing sighed a lot, having never imagined returning, and so easily at that.

"Just Zang He's mere fifteen hundred people, it's impossible to defend such a big Wind Witch City."

"Plus, this city was already breached before, full of loopholes. Even if wanting to repair, there's not enough time or manpower."

"Many barbarian soldiers even died in their sleep, not knowing what happened." Xia Jing looked at the final battle report, "Fifteen hundred people, with a ninety percent casualty rate, only a few escaped."

"Our own cultivators' realms are still counting, but I reckon it's nearing two thousand." Xia Jing said.

"We've reclaimed a lot of supplies; hehe, this guy, though people are few, guarded a logistics city, now we're plump again!"

Zhao Xing smiled: "So I said, initially, nothing's worth bringing, neighbors hoard food, I hoard weapons, neighbors are my granary, as long as we maintain human combat power, these enemies are our provisions."

The battle result is nothing worth looking at; with Zang He's few guarding this broken city, anyone could achieve such results.

He didn't pay much attention to the battle results but quickly summoned Wang Ji.

"Present!" Wang Ji jumped off the roof, "Grand Minister of Agriculture, what are your orders?"

"Has there been any news from the court?"

Wang Ji said: "I got in touch with a Mechanical Master of the Wuyao Army, but communications lasted only twenty breaths, we're too far apart."

"Jiuyou God has started a grand sweep, the Wuyao Army is at least more than three thousand miles away from us, Wuliang Matrix cannot achieve such a distant communication yet."

"But within those twenty breaths, I relayed your messages out, and provided some troop deployment situations."

"The Wuyao Army also sent back some messages, providing us some crucial intelligence."

Zhao Xing asked: "What crucial intelligence?"

Wang Ji pointed at the map: "Including each leader and faction under Jiuyou God, their tribes and the leaders' command styles."

"Additionally, several sect locations in Lanhe Prefecture and Cangzhou Prefecture can provide assistance, as long as the secret code matches, and this set of secret codes, General Li has given me."

"Lastly, he asked me to inform you, the court is mobilizing a large army to rescue us, asking me to report locations constantly."
