Dongxuan's tactic was obvious; it was simple and direct, but it was effective. Qiu Jianhan had to die even if they had to sacrifice their lives!
They would not allow Qiu Jianhan, who had fallen to such a state, to have any chance of survival!
Great benefits, great reputation, great benefits, and great compensation!
As long as they died or were sacrificed in this battle, there would be endless benefits for their descendants to enjoy!
Who would not fight to the death?
What was more, the enforcement team's gleaming steel sabers were right behind them!
Death was inevitable if they went forward, but there was still a chance for them to make a great contribution. Even if they died, there would still be great benefits; it would be worth it no matter how one looked at it. On the other hand, if they hesitated and took half a step back, they would be charged with treason. Not only would they deserve to die, they would also go down in infamy.
Yun Yang set his target and howled again, "Those who stand in my way shall die!"
Like a mad tiger, he charged towards the densest group of people.
At this moment, the long saber that had already been curled up because of the continuous slashes moved again. It suddenly swung out a stream of blood beads, drawing a semicircle in the crowd. Bang, bang, bang …
Wherever the saber passed, countless experts of the Jianghu cried out in shock when they came into contact with this enormous power and were sent flying. Among them, there were even more people who were flying in the air when their bodies suddenly split into pieces and they died on the spot!
Yun Yang and his steed charged forward like a giant ship crossing the surface of the water, forcefully carving out a clear blood-colored dividing line.
Wherever he passed, there were corpses strewn all over the ground; there was no sign of life.
Along the way, there were millions of soldiers and countless experts, but none of them could stop him, not even for a blink of an eye.
Right now, Yun Yang was like a bolt of lightning, charging towards Qiu Jianhan's remaining troops who were surrounded by a dense crowd.
If Yun Yang had been anxious earlier, he had gone berserk now.
Not only did he know that Old Marshal Qiu, Bai Yixue, the four popinjays, Ji Lingxi, Yue Rulan, and Shangguan Lingxiu were there, as well as his nominal father, Marquis of Heavenly Clouds, Yun Xiaoyao. Not only did Yun Yang not want to lose Old Marshal Qiu, all of these people were his closest friends and family!
He could not lose them, he could not lose them!
Moreover, the other party's attacks were so crazy that the other side was like a small boat in a raging sea that could capsize at any time.
Therefore, Yun Yang's combat power was off the charts at this moment. He was like a god of death who had descended into the world, unrivaled!
On the other side, Zhan Ge, who was also commanding the battle from a high vantage point, naturally noticed the anomaly on the battlefield at the first instant. It was the terrifying figure that had split his army apart like a bolt of lightning.
Zhan Ge was Han Sanhe's disciple, the heir to his legacy. Naturally, he was well-versed in the art of war. He could sense that something was amiss at once.
He immediately issued an order, "Mutual Perishing Tactic! Broken Jade Tactic! Deal with the purple-clothed man with the same method you used against the white-clothed man! "
Yutang's Eastern Army had their own price tag; Qiu Jianhan was naturally at the top, followed by Fu Baoguo and Bai Yixue.
Initially, it was because of Bai Yixue's past. He was the culprit who had caused Han Sanhe to be pursued and obstructed during his return journey. Now that they had met again, Han Sanhe was more cautious and more intent to kill. However, when they actually met, Dongxuan's ace cultivators had swiftly reported that it was better not to provoke this person if possible. This person's ability had greatly exceeded their knowledge. Normal tactics were meaningless against him; they would only be sending their lives to their graves!
Han Sanhe had reevaluated Bai Yixue because of this, even ordering them to relax their attacks on this person. It was fine even if they let him escape unscathed. After all, Bai Yixue was not a high-ranking member of Yutang's military; it would be futile even if he was let go.
In spite of this, Bai Yixue had stayed by Qiu Jianhan's side to protect him, never leaving him, like a shadow. It could be said that to kill Qiu Jianhan, one had to kill Bai Yixue first. After a series of twists and turns, the final conclusion was that Bai Yixue had to be killed. No matter how difficult it was to kill him, he had to be killed!
In fact, if Old Marshal Qiu's remaining troops did not have Bai Yixue's support, they would have collapsed a long time ago. It was also because of this that Bai Yixue had attracted more than half of Dongxuan's ace combat power. Although he had killed countless men, he had also exhausted himself to the point of exhaustion. Right now, he could only maintain the combination of swords with Yun Xiaoyao to maintain the last line of defense!
Yun Yang's sudden emergence had replaced Bai Yixue and attracted Zhan Ge's attention. Zhan Ge was a famous general in the battlefield, but his knowledge of the differences between cultivation experts was limited. He had overestimated Yun Yang by placing him on the same level as Bai Yixue!
In spite of this, Yun Yang's ferocious demeanor of killing gods was much more ferocious than Bai Yixue!
At least, in terms of aura, Bai Yixue paled in comparison to this Young Master Yun!
In spite of this, this was indeed Zhan Ge's heartfelt wish. There must not be another white-clothed reaper, nor could he be allowed to meet with Qiu Jianhan's remaining troops. He must be killed before both parties converged!
"Push the war drums again, put in more effort! End this battle as soon as possible! I want to see Qiu Jianhan's head!"
Zhan Ge shouted excitedly.
He did not notice the strange expression that flitted across Han Sanhe's face, who was resting not far behind him.
It was as if he was sighing, as if he was lamenting.
Following Zhan Ge's command, all the bugles in Dongxuan's army rang loudly at the same time. It was only a moment's difference before all the war drums began to beat loudly as well.
It was rapid and relentless, as if they were going to keep blowing and beating like this!
At that moment, the entire battlefield was like a massive mythical beast that had been awakened by the series of noises. Its heart pounded violently, causing the blood in its body to burn fiercely.
The eyes of Dongxuan's troops were suddenly bloodshot.
"Perishing together! It's perishing together again! "
A Dongxuan general stood straight on the back of a galloping horse and howled into the sky, his voice shrill and heroic.
"Perishing together! Are they activating the perishing together again? "
Countless Dongxuan soldiers who had been enlightened seemed to have turned into frenzied beasts, unleashing their ferocity in unison.
At this moment, all thoughts of retreat, death, glory … everything was wiped away by the war drums. The deafening bugles were sounding the call of death, or perhaps it was the Grim Reaper's sonata!
This was Dongxuan's second perishing together. It was the same tactic that had previously restrained Bai Yixue's forceful breakout and limited him to the current dire situation. Now, it was being used for the second time, and it was targeted at Yun Yang!
Yun Yang felt the resistance of his advance increase abruptly, many times more!
Countless Dongxuan soldiers on the path ahead were pouncing towards him with no regard for their own lives. He was no longer using weapons, techniques, or the orthodox way of fighting on the battlefield to stop him. Instead, he was using his own body and his horse to ram into him, using his own life as an obstacle … That level of madness was truly disregarding life and death.
It was no longer sufficient to describe the current method as' disregarding life and death '.
This was because there was no longer any thought of life and death in the minds of those who tried to stop him; they only wanted to stop him!
The army on both sides of Yun Yang were gathering towards the center, or perhaps they were squeezed together. Those who were closer to the front would be pushed to Yun Yang by their comrades who were charging towards him, even if they did not charge forward themselves.
What kind of charge could continue in this world when faced with such a strong force and interception?
In the blink of an eye, Yun Yang's front, back, front, back, left, and right were filled with such a frenzied crowd. No matter which direction he looked in, there was an endless sea of people, a sea of human heads!
Under such a frenzied and extreme attack, the troops who were escorting Qiu Jianhan were actually stopped in their tracks and were even pushed back thousands of feet. Even when Bai Yixue tried his best to deal with them, he was still forced to retreat.
There was a limit to one's strength. Even the pinnacle experts of this world could only sigh helplessly when faced with such a human wave tactic and all-out attack!
Yun Yang finally understood Bai Yixue's helplessness. His saber was swung again and again, clearing the path ahead, but in the blink of an eye, the path ahead would be filled up again, making it impossible for him to move forward again.
Human wave tactic had always been the last resort to deal with superior experts.
At the same time, it was also the most effective method.
Even if one was amazing and capable, even if one could kill a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand people, he still had a hundred thousand people, a million people! Even if they stood there and let him kill them, he could still exhaust himself until he couldn't even lift his saber in the end!
Even if he was tired, he would die of exhaustion!
What was more, there were still quite a number of experts among those who had joined the battle. Even if these experts were far weaker than Yun Yang and could not afford to face him head-on, their combined strength would still be of some use!
Even if Yun Yang were to be sliced into pieces, if he were to slice through too many bones during the process – hard bones at that – it would exhaust him even more!
Just as Yun Yang was about to be engulfed by the swarm of soldiers, the saber in Yun Yang's hand left his grip and spun to form a glowing circle of light. It bloomed everywhere, slicing hundreds of people around Yun Yang in half at once. The impenetrable space cleared up abruptly. Almost at the same time, Yun Yang's right hand reached out and another gleaming saber appeared in his hand. The tossing and grabbing were done without pause, as smooth as flowing water.
Seeing that the pressure around it was gone, Reddie charged forward, its hind hooves landing on the heads of two enemy soldiers at the same time. As its feet landed, the brains of the two heads burst. Reddie, who had borrowed the momentum, had already leaped hundreds of feet away. When it landed, it continued its previous move, charging another hundred feet away. When it landed for the third time, it was unable to leap again, falling into another dense encirclement of the enemy soldiers!
Dongxuan's army was made up of veterans who were used to fighting. Even when Reddie had succeeded once or twice and escaped once or twice, how could they not make a move?
On the other side, Bai Yixue and the rest, seeing Yun Yang's rise, mustered their remaining strength and fought to their heart's content, charging over as fast as they could. It was obvious that they wanted to meet up with Yun Yang and work together to break out of the encirclement and break the stalemate.
Both sides were approaching each other swiftly!
It was at this delicate juncture that silhouettes flashed within Dongxuan's formation. Dozens of people dressed in hemp garments and tall crowns appeared abruptly, each of them holding a strangely shaped one-handed hook that gleamed with a cold gleam. The dozens of people moved together, swiftly forming an odd formation. It was only a short exchange, but they had already completely suppressed Bai Yixue and the rest's attack.
