Seven to eight days later, the Ying Division that Cheng Division had been waiting for arrived.
Although there were only around three thousand strong warriors in the Ying Clan, there were over eighty Maguspriests following them. Other than these Maguspriests, there were also three Qi trainers from the Ying Clan. More importantly, Bi Xing and the other Qi trainers had brought a lot of treasures that could be used to recruit cultivators.
Under normal circumstances, to transport these items, it would require hundreds of cows and horses. To transport them across the Wilderness, it was almost impossible. It was only because Yuanzhen gave them a Cosmos Sack that he made himself, that he could carry it with him Just Now.
The leader of the Ying Division was called Ying Guan. After some reorganization, he suggested to Cheng Liang that before the Yue Clan knew of their arrival and reacted, they should send their troops to attack as soon as possible. They might be able to catch them off guard. He was willing to lead the Ying Division's men and go first to open up the situation.
This suggestion was exactly what Cheng Liang wanted, and he immediately agreed. Therefore, the people of Ying Division went first, while the Cheng Division led the army and the messengers from other divisions and followed behind.
This time, the Ying Division was prepared. Every time they arrived at a city gate, they would first order the recruited cultivators to activate the formation. As soon as the Demon cultivators guarding the gate came out, they would immediately take out the golden chain that Yuanzhen gave them. Once this treasure was out, no matter who it was, as long as they were tied up, they would stop breathing and fall down, unable to move.
And once these Demon cultivators left, the mortal guards naturally had no one to rely on. They either scattered or knelt down and surrendered. The Ying Division did not care about them, only leaving a few people to guard the gate, they did not stop and went to the next gate.
When the Cheng Division's army arrived, they realized that they did not even need to fight, they could easily take the gate into their own hands.
In the following period of time, the Ying Division used the treasure in their hands to advance all the way to the east. Every attack was successful, it could be said that they were unstoppable.
But after thirty days, the army had already advanced to the Hao Gate.
This gate was built by King Zhao years ago. Seeing that Zhaoyuan was not safe to defend, he gathered over a thousand Maguspriests, moved mountains and earth, and built it. It could be said to be a strategic location. After passing through this gate, it would be a flat plain.
The one in charge of guarding this place was a demonic cultivator called Duan You.
Although the Yue Clan had invited many beast cultivators to help in the battle against the other tribes, these people were usually only at the Qi Refinement or Mystic Light Realm. Even Core Formation Realm cultivators rarely showed up. This was because when they cultivated to this level, they usually had disciples to help them. They didn't have to search for cultivation materials themselves.
The reason was different. It was originally a demon of the wasteland. Its original magical power was enough to surpass ordinary Core Formation cultivators. Later, it accidentally heard a superior scripture. Just Now, it knew the cultivation method.
There were many monsters in the Wilderness who had listened to the original preaching, but they all had different understandings of it. However, he was gifted with excellent comprehension, so he could be considered to have entered the door.
Even Jin Yuan noticed his potential. If it weren't for the fact that they'd agreed that disciples of the Connate Demon Sect weren't allowed to appear in the human path's territory, and that they still needed Ye Zichen's help here, he would've taken him in a long time ago.
Along the way, Ying Guan didn't meet a single opponent, so he was very arrogant. He intentionally showed himself before his troops. When the troops behind him arrived, he immediately called a Daoist cultivator to challenge him.
Not long after, a golden light flashed in the sky. A man in Daoist robes appeared. He had handsome eyebrows and bright eyes. His sleeves fluttered in the wind, and he had a sage-like appearance.
Ying Guan was a little surprised. Although all the beast cultivators he'd met in the past were also Transformation Stage, their divine qi was different from humans. Usually, their qi was very fierce. With one look, one could tell that they were of a different species. However, this person was different. He seemed to be a person with Dao.
However, he didn't take it to heart. Seeing him come out, he impatiently took out the golden chain.
Seeing the golden chain fly over, Duan You's eyes were filled with mockery. He already knew that the other had this treasure, so how could he not be prepared?
He immediately took out a seal and chanted scriptures. In an instant, his voice shook the plains. The golden chain fell down. Although it trapped him, it couldn't take him down because it was half a foot away.
Ying Guan's expression changed when he saw this. He knew that he'd encountered a tough opponent. Fortunately, he'd expected to encounter some difficult opponents before he came, so he wasn't without a plan. He shouted, "Everyone, please help me with all your strength."
The three Qi Practitioners that came with him heard this. They all formed hand seals and offered their qi and arcane energy to help.
But even so, it wasn't enough to fight against this monster cultivator. The golden chain only tightened a little, and like before, it couldn't be retracted no matter what.
Ying Guan couldn't help but break out in cold sweat. His cultivation level wasn't high, and now, he felt that he couldn't hold on anymore. The three Qi Practitioners were even worse off. Their faces gradually turned pale.
Above the city walls, as the chanting grew louder, the golden chain actually started to tremble. It looked like it was going to break free.
The expressions of the troops below all changed. The reason the army could reach here was because of this treasure. If they suffered a setback this time, it wouldn't be as simple as losing the battle. Not only would the territories they previously occupied be taken back by the Yue clan, they might not even be able to keep their lives.
Right at this moment, all of them didn't notice that a jade white lion had flown over from the sky. Chen Mang rode on the lion's back and looked down. He immediately recognized Duan You as a monster cultivator. At this moment, it was obvious that the tribes were at a disadvantage. They would probably lose soon.
He circled around twice. He wanted to help, but he didn't know where to start. After all, the difference in cultivation level between him and the monster cultivator was too big. At this moment, he suddenly thought of the incense burner and thought, "I can only try."
He took off the backpack on his back and took out the incense burner. He poured some inner Qi into it and chanted a few incantations. Then, he threw the incense burner down!
When the incense burner went down, it suddenly flipped over. The edge of the burner was instantly aimed downwards. A ray of fire shot out from inside and landed on Duan You's body. The latter's skin and flesh were instantly charred. His tendons and bones were exposed. He couldn't help but let out a cry of pain. The chanting of incantations was immediately cut off.
Ying Guan originally thought that he was going to lose this time. When he suddenly saw this chance, his spirit was lifted. He was overjoyed and immediately used all his strength to activate the golden chain. This time, there was no more obstruction. With a flash of light, Duan You was already tightly bound. In an instant, his Qi orifice was closed. He fell straight back and didn't move anymore.
Seeing this, Chen Mang waved his hand and kept the treasured incense burner. He patted the white lion lightly and landed on the ground.
Cheng Liang saw this mighty white jade flying lion and didn't dare to underestimate the newcomer. He walked forward and bowed. "Thank you, Immortal Elder, for saving me. May I ask how I should address you?"
Chen Mang flipped over and returned the greeting. "Master Cheng is too polite. Mang is not some Immortal Elder."
When Cheng Liang heard how he addressed him, he was stunned. He stared at him for a while and said in surprise, "Isn't this Young Master Ji?"
Chen Mang smiled bitterly. "Mang is now a cultivator. I only hope to kill my enemies as soon as possible. There's no need to mention my past identity."
In terms of identity, he was the younger brother of King Zhao, Zhu Chao. When the Yue clan rebelled, he happened to be out hunting and didn't return. That was why he managed to escape with his life. However, the Yue clan's soldiers kept searching for his whereabouts. If he didn't join Cen Xiao's sect, his ending would be obvious.
Cheng Liang laughed and took a few steps forward. He grabbed his arm and shook it a few times. He said happily, "Heaven's will, heaven's will. Young Master Ji came at the right time! Liang was originally worried about the Nation-Stabilizing Drum in the hands of the Yue clan. Young Master, you're the direct descendant of King Zhao. With you here, there's nothing to be afraid of. "
The Yue clan possessed the Nation-Stabilizing Drum that King Zhao built when he was conquering the tribes of the other races. Once it was struck on the battle formation, no matter what kind of supernatural power the enemy had, they would be unable to use it.
However, if there was a direct descendant of the Zhao clan in the enemy formation, then this miraculous effect wouldn't occur. Cheng Liang had always been worried about this in the past. Now that Chen Mang was here, he naturally didn't have to worry about this anymore.
When Ying Guan heard his identity, his heart jumped. The purpose of his trip was to help Young Master Suo Chong ascend to the throne and become the ruler of the Zhao nation. He didn't think that Zhu Chao still had a younger brother who hadn't died. It seemed that he had become the disciple of some cultivator.
His eyes flashed. He thought that if this person was after the throne, it could be a hindrance to the great plan that his clan leader had given him. In this instant, he had the thought of getting rid of this person.
Because Duan You had been captured, the soldiers guarding Hao Pass had no more morale. They were quickly taken down.
Once this pass was defeated, Wang Jing was right in front of them.
Cheng Liang thought that the time to conquer the world wasn't far. That night, he held a banquet with all the messengers and generals and suggested that Chen Mang be crowned King Zhao.
Chen Mang tried to refuse but to no avail. In the end, he could only agree. He said that he was only taking the throne temporarily. After the Yue Clan was destroyed, he could choose another disciple of the Zhao Clan to succeed him.
On the other side, Hao Pass was defeated. The Yue Clan was also unusually panicked. They gathered their clan members to discuss and decided to open up their treasury. They sent out an edict to invite all the demons and beasts in the world to help in battle. This caused the beasts and beasts to call for friends and continuously attract more of their own kind. For a moment, Wang Jing was filled with demonic energy. Black clouds covered the sky. It was a place that didn't belong to the human world.
But half a month later, Cheng Liang led his troops to Yu Jing. However, because the pass here was tall and sturdy, and there were shallow jinzhi that the Yue Clan had invited to set up, he wasn't in a hurry to attack the city. Instead, he set up camp outside and prepared to attack the city together when the armies of the other clans arrived.
In the Dayin Plains, inside the Tower of Ten Thousand Techniques, Jin Yu An wore a white robe. He held a jade chain in his hands and a rope on his feet. He sat on the stone lotus seat on the altar.
Behind him was a Luo Kong painting wall that was given by the two Celestial Lords. The scenery on the wall changed from time to time, showing the wonderful land of paradise.
At the bottom of the stairs, a divine light suddenly appeared. His junior apprentice-brother Di Quluo came to the front of the seat. He bowed and said, "Senior apprentice-brother, there's a letter from Zhaoyuan. The Yue Clan is already in danger. Should we lend a hand?"
Jin Yu An shook his head and said, "There's no need for that. Spreading the wonderful method to the east is to attract fated people to expand our sect. The killing in the human world isn't what I want. Now that the fated people of my sect have arrived, let the rest of the people do as they please."
He had long understood that if there were no accidents, the Ying tribe would be supported by the Heartless Sect.
And behind the various clans, one could vaguely see the four great people, Yuan Zun. Now that the Yue Clan was on the brink of destruction under the influence of the disciples of both sides, this chess piece could be abandoned.
And according to the calculations of the two Celestial Lords, they didn't have to do anything. They just had to sit and wait for the birth of the Primordial Jade. If this item didn't fall into the hands of the people, there might be a fight among the mighty people. But this wasn't something they could intervene in.
