In the past two days, when the army was attacking the grotto-heaven's entrance, these six thousand soldiers were resting in the divine warships and had no intention of asking for battle.
But now, the defensive formation at the grotto-heaven's entrance was about to be breached, and these six thousand soldiers were scrambling to ask for battle.
Their goal was very simple. They wanted to take advantage of the situation and get the credit.
Although the previous two days of attack and sacrifice were valuable, there was not much credit to speak of.
But being the first to enter Ancient Pine grotto-heaven and take the lead in killing the Pine Crane clan's disciples was a great merit!
Not to mention, only eight thousand of the nine thousand soldiers attacking the grotto-heaven's entrance were left.
Those eight thousand soldiers were already exhausted, but these six thousand elite soldiers were conserving their strength, ready to go.
They believed that the Blood Prison Marshal would agree to their request and send them as the vanguard to attack Ancient Pine grotto-heaven.
Sure enough.
The Blood Prison Marshal nodded in agreement after a little consideration.
He looked at the three captains, who were eager to give it a try, and said with a dignified tone, "The other captains have been fighting a bloody battle for two days, but you have been recuperating and building up your strength.
Benshuai hopes that you can understand that as the vanguard, you must show an indomitable spirit and determination that does not fear death!
After attacking Ancient Pine grotto-heaven, Benshuai will personally supervise the army. If anyone dares to take a step back, they will be executed without mercy! "
Clearly, the Blood Prison Marshal had expected that the bloody battle would only begin after attacking Ancient Pine grotto-heaven.
When the time came, the battle would be even crueler.
It would not be so easy for these six thousand soldiers to get credit!
The three generals understood the meaning of the Blood Prison Marshal's words. Their expressions turned cold, and they saluted solemnly, saying, "Please rest assured, Grand Marshal. We will not fail our mission!"
The Blood Prison Marshal nodded in satisfaction and motioned for the three generals to withdraw.
The three generals gathered their troops and got into a charging formation outside the grotto-heaven's entrance, ready to go.
Not long after, the defensive formation of Ancient Pine grotto-heaven emitted cracking sounds, and shards of divine light filled the sky.
Under everyone's gaze, the defensive formation could not bear the burden and finally shattered, collapsing on the spot.
The sky was filled with fragments of divine light, and a gap with a radius of more than ten miles appeared in the formation. The blurry scene inside the Ancient Pine Paradise could be vaguely seen.
Many soldiers could see that there were nearly three thousand disciples of the Pine Crane Clan in the cave. All of them looked haggard and disheveled, with frightened and panicked expressions on their faces.
"Hahahaha … We've finally breached it. Everyone, charge!"
"What are you waiting for? Charge in and kill all the Pine Crane bastards! "
"Ancient Pine Paradise is filled with traitors. Kill them all, leave no one alive!"
The soldiers under the command of the Blood Prison Marshal all cheered excitedly, shouting that they wanted to charge in.
In their eyes, once the defensive formation of the grotto-heaven was broken, the Pine Crane disciples would be like lambs waiting to be slaughtered. They could do whatever they wanted!
Although the eight thousand soldiers had been attacking continuously for two days, they had used up a lot of their divine power and felt very tired.
However, victory and merit were right in front of them. They all rushed forward without regard for their own safety, wanting to be the first to rush into Ancient Pine Paradise.
However, the six thousand soldiers who had been accumulating power and waiting were even faster than them.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! "
The six thousand soldiers were divided into three groups. They cut through the sky as fast as lightning, passing through the gap in the formation and taking the lead to rush into Ancient Pine Paradise.
They were silent and did not shout any slogans. However, they were all holding back a powerful burst of power. Their bodies were brimming with blazing killing intent.
These six thousand soldiers were not only powerful and majestic slaughterers, but they were also fast as lightning. They were the vanguard that launched a sudden attack.
The eight thousand soldiers were dumbfounded. When they came to their senses, they all showed angry and unconvinced expressions and secretly cursed.
"Damn it! We actually let those bastards get ahead of us! "
"Two days ago, when we attacked the grotto-heaven formation, they stayed in the divine warship to rest. Now, they want to take the lead and take the credit?"
"Hmph! We watered and fertilized, and they came to pick the fruit?
No, we have to get an explanation for this! "
"Everyone, don't be impulsive. Since they dared to do this, they must have been instructed by the Grand Marshal!"
"Don't just stand there. We can discuss this after the battle. We have to charge in too. We can't let them get ahead of us!"
There were finally some people among the soldiers who understood.
Now was not the time to bicker about the credit. The most important thing was to rush into Ancient Pine Paradise and kill the enemy. Only then could they obtain credit.
"Kill!"
"Charge! Don't let them get ahead of us! "
"It's our credit. We can't run away!"
"The Grand Marshal is watching us. Everyone, don't embarrass the General!"
The many soldiers shouted and waved their weapons. They charged into Ancient Pine Paradise without any regard for their own safety.
After a short while, all 14,000 soldiers had entered Ancient Pine Grotto.
At this moment, the Blood Prison Marshal led over twenty Godkings and generals through the gap at a moderate pace, entering Ancient Pine grotto-heaven.
There were no soldiers left to guard the gap in the formation. The Blood Hell Marshal felt that there was no need.
After all, a gap of several dozen miles could not be repaired in a short period of time.
… …
Long before the formation was breached, the Pine Crane disciples and the two thousand captives had already made preparations for battle.
The three thousand disciples who had cast spells to support the formation pretended to be panicked when they saw the formation being breached. However, they were actually very calm inside.
When they saw the six thousand fast and murderous vanguard army charging into Ancient Pine Paradise, they symbolically resisted for a moment before retreating in a 'sorry state'.
The six thousand vanguard army's murderous intent was too strong. They were also very anxious. They only wanted to kill all the Pine Crane disciples as soon as possible and take the credit.
When they saw the three thousand Pine Crane disciples fleeing in a sorry state, their morale was even higher. They chased even more ferociously.
However, they did not notice a detail.
The three thousand Pine Crane disciples and captives who seemed to be retreating in a panic were actually not in a mess. Instead, they were retreating into the trap formation in an orderly manner.
On the other side, the three thousand disciples who were meditating and recuperating in the trap formation had already made preparations and were ready to attack.
Even the Pine Crane Patriarch, a few elders, and the patriarchs of the four ancient clans had taken out their weapons and were ready for battle.
Finally, after more than three hundred of the three thousand Pine Crane disciples were killed, the remaining two thousand six hundred managed to escape into the range of the trap formation.
On the surface, it looked like they were flying over a grassland.
The six thousand vanguard army with murderous intent did not have any scruples or defenses. They surged forward like a torrent.
There was no doubt that they had also entered the grassland and stepped into the trap formation.
However, Ji Tianxing was not in a hurry to make a move.
He, the three thousand Pine Crane disciples, and the elders of the four ancient clans were under the cover of the formation. They were not discovered by the enemy.
The Pine Crane Patriarch and the elders' hearts were in their throats. They could not wait to activate the formation immediately and kill the six thousand vanguard army.
However, Ji Tianxing had to wait for the remaining eight thousand vanguard army to enter the trap before he could kill them all.
