Where there were people, there would be rivers and lakes. Where there were rivers and lakes, there would be grudges. The world was filled with endless wars and even in this vast Earth Immortal Realm, there was no exception.
As far as the eye could see, heaven and earth were connected. This was a boundless prairie that covered an area of over a hundred thousand miles, so it was called the Hundred Thousand Mile Boundless Prairie.
War drums were beating and wild winds were howling. Heaven shaking battle cries could be heard as weapons clashed and blood flew everywhere. Countless soldiers were bathed in blood as they fought in this boundless prairie.
Broken limbs and heads rolled. In this wild battle, it was unknown how many soldiers had died in this prairie. Only the battle did not end and became even more intense.
This was because the Hundred Thousand Mile Boundless Prairie had another name called the Ten Country Battlefield. Whenever a war began, all the grudges and battles would begin in this boundless prairie. This custom had already lasted for over ten thousand years.
Ao Lai, Che Chi Country, Yin Hou Country, Small Holy Country, Large Holy Country ….. War Hounds Country ….. In this one million mile area, there were a total of ten countries.
This was a war between countries and it was also a kind of world. As long as there were people, there would be no lack of fighting.
"Your highness, quickly leave!"
In the depths of the prairie, several thousand black armoured soldiers were bathed in blood. A young man wearing a black robe was holding a sharp sword as he led the charge to kill the War Hounds Country's soldiers. The aura around him was clearly very fierce.
Zhao Gou, the Small Holy Country's second prince. He was also a talented young man who excelled in both the pen and the sword. He was very famous in the Small Holy Country and was a strong candidate for the throne.
In order to increase his chances of succeeding the throne, when the Small Holy Country and the War Hounds Country began their war, Zhao Gou did not decline his responsibility and led a hundred thousand soldiers into battle.
This was a war without any suspense. The War Hounds Country only had thirty thousand soldiers, so they were not Zhao Gou's match at all. But when the war began, the War Hounds soldiers covered the sky as they surrounded him from all directions. There were several hundred thousand of them.
When he found the disparity between them and the enemy, Zhao Gou knew that he had fallen into a giant trap. His soldiers were bathed in blood as they fought against the War Hounds army of several hundred thousand, but in the end they were all killed, leaving him in a hopeless situation.
How could several thousand soldiers resist the several hundred thousand War Hounds army?
Zhao Gou knew that he could not escape and his heart was already filled with the desire to die. But even if he died, he would die in battle in this boundless prairie and would not become a captive of the War Hounds Country.
"Little brat Zhao Gou, why aren't you surrendering? Could it be that you want this general to kill you personally?"
In all directions, there was a sea of people. Several hundred thousand War Hounds soldiers surrounded Zhao Gou in the center. A War Hounds general came out on his horse, looking at Zhao Gou with a cruel look in his eyes.
"Ah Muta, if you want to kill me, then kill me. If you want to make this highness your prisoner, you're just dreaming." Zhao Gou pointed his sword at the War Hounds general, speaking in a low and cold voice.
"Zhao Gou, you really are pitiful. Could it be that you don't want to know how I found out about you appearing here?" The War Hounds general said with a cold laugh.
"Zhao Xun?" Zhao Gou's face flickered as he thought of something, and he clenched his teeth so hard that they threatened to shatter.
Zhao Xun, the small Holy Kingdom's crown prince, was also the heir to the throne. In order to fight for the throne, the two of them had already lost their brotherly feelings.
Today, he had personally led the army, so it must have been Zhao Xun who sold his information to the War Hounds Country, causing him to fall into this situation.
Although he understood everything, it was already too late. Zhao Gou knew that he was facing a dead end and a trace of despair flashed in his eyes.
"Zhao Gou, you can be considered an ambitious person, but it's a pity that you will die here today. You should end your own life here." The War Hounds general said in a low voice.
In this boundless world, soldiers dying in battle. Zhao Gou revealed a bitter smile. He knew that perhaps this was his best choice, it was much better than dying under the enemy's blade.
Zheng!
A sword was pulled out and placed across his throat. Since he had already reached this point, Zhao Gou really had no other choice.
"Your highness, you can't."
The soldiers all had bitter expressions. There was even someone who grabbed the sword in Zhao Gou's hand, clearly wanting to stop Zhao Gou from ending his own life here.
"This highness has let you all down. We will still be brothers in the underworld."
Zhao Gou slowly pushed aside the soldier in front of him. The sword in his hand had already pierced through his skin. As long as he used a bit of strength, he would be able to pierce his own throat and die here.
"This ….. Who is this person?"
Suddenly, a cry of surprise rang out, causing Zhao Gou's expression to slightly change as he looked towards the source of the sound.
A black-robed man covered in blood was crawling in a patch of weeds. A large amount of weeds covered him, making it impossible to see his face. However, the specks of demonic light surrounding him caused the void to distort slightly.
At the same time.
The dark prison was boundless.
When the final strand of demonic light entered Ye Xuan's soul, the dark prison began to collapse inch by inch. A tyrannical killing intent filled Ye Xuan's consciousness, causing his soul to become as black as ink.
"Roar!"
Like the roar of a ferocious beast, like the roar of an evil dragon, an inhuman voice came out from Ye Xuan's mouth. The dark prison finally collapsed without a trace, and his soul returned to his physical body.
When the soul and physical body combined into one, an extremely terrifying thing happened.
Suddenly, Ye Xuan opened his eyes. His pupils were pitch black and terrifying, and they were rumbling at this moment, as though they wanted to suck in the souls of all living beings. This caused Zhao Gou and the other soldiers to gasp in shock.
"This … this …" Zhao Gou was not stupid.
Zhao Gou wasn't stupid. Although he didn't know who Ye Xuan was, the black light surrounding him gave him the urge to kneel down and kowtow. Even his soul was trembling at this moment.
"Junior Zhao Gou is the second prince of a small Holy Kingdom. Today, I was ambushed by the War Hounds Country and my life is in danger. Please save this junior's life, senior. I will definitely not forget senior's kindness in the future."
Zhao Gou's eyes turned, and he directly knelt down and kowtowed to Ye Xuan, lowering his posture to an extremely low level.
Zhao Gou was not stupid. He was a Golden Core cultivator, but he could not sense Ye Xuan's cultivation level. Ye Xuan was at least at the Nascent Soul stage. Although his aura was not that of a righteous cultivator, he was now in a life and death crisis. Only this person who suddenly appeared in front of him could save his life.
Unfortunately, Ye Xuan was unmoved by Zhao Gou's pleas, because he was currently in an extremely tyrannical mood.
The dark prison was formed by the demonic power. Although he had escaped, he had also fused the demonic power into his soul. At this moment, his heart was filled with an extremely tyrannical mood, and he had the urge to slaughter the world.
However, Ye Xuan was forcefully restraining himself, hoping to suppress these negative emotions. If he were to really start a massacre, he'd probably turn into a killing machine as well.
"Where did this thief come from? Die!"
Suddenly, the War Hounds general slashed out with his blade, bringing a hundred meter long blade light towards Ye Xuan. Clearly, in his mind, Ye Xuan was one of Zhao Gou's people.
