Zhao Qiansun was an intermediate-stage Golden Core Realm cultivator, and he was only an ordinary outer court disciple in the sect he belonged to. This time, he was very 'lucky' to be selected to become a member of the army that would attack Silken City. However, he wasn't in charge of fighting, and he was in charge of cooking. The reason he was selected was because his culinary skills were superb, and he was highly praised by the big shots.
Logically speaking, these cultivators had already entered the realm of inedia, and they didn't need to eat every day. But when an army set out for battle, they needed to drink to their heart's content, so how could they not have food to go with it? So, Zhao Qiansun was summoned.
Zhao Qiansun's name was very interesting. It was said that his father's surname was Zhao, and his mother's surname was Qian. When he was young, he had a godfather surnamed Sun. So, not long after he was born, when he needed to be given a name, his father suddenly gave him such a name.
The sect that Zhao Qiansun belonged to was called the Nine Moons Sect. This name sounded slightly strange, and it was said that the founder of the sect was named Nine Moons.
At that time, the Nine Moons Sect was still a weak sect in the Radiant Realm. Until 300 years ago, the scale of the Nine Moons Sect in the entire Radiant Realm couldn't be considered large, and it had around 200,000 to 300,000 disciples. To the entire Radiant Realm, it was only a mid-tier sect.
But more than two hundred years ago, it suddenly exploded!
First, the number of cultivators that charged into the Nascent Soul Realm in the sect suddenly increased by a few hundred times!
After that, various geniuses continuously emerged, and in a short period of 200 years, it forcefully grew from a small and unknown sect into a true colossus.
Now, the Nine Moons Sect had a terrifying scale of over 1,000,000 inner court disciples, and over 2,000,000 outer court disciples.
Zhao Qiansun was one of those 2,000,000 outer court disciples. So, from the beginning, he was filled with pride and excitement about being selected to be a member of the army that attacked the city.
He who usually kept a low profile was in a slightly pretentious state when he was preparing to set out. He really hoped that others would look at him with envy.
As a matter of fact, everyone who knew him was looking at him with envy in their eyes.
Such an opportunity was simply hard to come by!
A battle that was bound to be a complete victory, and there was no way they would lose. If he followed along and cooked for the big shots, not only would he be able to obtain generous rewards from the sect, he might even be able to enter the eyes of some big shots. From now on, his future was limitless!
Such a good opportunity was as wonderful as a pie falling from the sky.
When Zhao Qiansun had just arrived at Silken City and saw the various armies of cultivators that were attacking Silken City, his heart surged with excitement. He was incomparably proud of himself for being able to participate in this great battle!
As for the resistance from Silken City … Zhao Qiansun didn't even think about it!
What kind of joke was this? A city that could barely be ranked as a third-tier city in the Spiritual Realm, let alone facing the allied forces of so many major forces, even the Nine Moons Sect could easily wipe out this city!
Now, almost all of the top sects in the Spirit Realm had gathered together!
With this kind of power … how could it not be able to conquer a small city?
If anyone dared to say something like that, they would definitely be treated as a lunatic or a fool.
Therefore, Zhao Qiansun's heart was filled with an indescribable excitement during the first few days. Even though he did not understand why they had to attack this city, the people above did not say anything, and the people below did not dare to ask. No one was spreading it.
After he arrived here and noticed so many people wanted to attack Silken City, Zhao Qiansun automatically made up a reason in his heart.
A great devil that's harmful to the entire Radiant Dimension has surely appeared in Silken City!
So many of us have come here for the sake of subduing this devil!
Otherwise, how could he draw the wrath of practically all the top sects and clans in the entire Radiant Dimension?
Starting from the sect he was from, the Nine Moons Sect, Inferno Sect, Dugu Mountain, Zhong Clan, Ping Clan, Hu Clan … Practically all of these top sects and clans of the Radiant Dimension had participated.
All of these sects and clans had a comparatively obvious characteristic that very few people noticed, or perhaps some people noticed it but didn't take it seriously.
That was, these sects and clans had experienced an enormous eruption in the last two to three hundred years!
Especially the Nine Moons Sect, it was utterly insignificant in the past, yet it had suddenly risen and erupted in the last two to three hundred years, and it was impossible to stop it from becoming a top sect.
Even though sects like the Inferno Sect and Dugu Mountain had always stood at the peak of the Radiant Dimension in the annals of history, and they were first-rate sects. But in the last two to three hundred years, all of them had their own new eruption points.
In their own words, they were standing on a solid foundation and radiating a strong second chance of survival!
It was the same for the Zhong Clan, Ping Clan, Hu Clan, and the other clans. They were once ancient clans and true wealthy clans, and in the last few hundred years, they had become even more brilliant and dazzling.
In fact, all of these sects and clans, without exception, had received great benefits from the Blood Demon Ancestor!
In their respective forbidden grounds, there was a statue of the Blood Demon Ancestor erected!
After the Blood Demon Ancestor gave the order, all of them turned out in full force. Because the Blood Demon Ancestor had already promised them that if they succeeded this time, he would once again bestow them with even better rewards!
Zhao Qiansun naturally didn't know about these things, but this didn't prevent him from looking forward to a beautiful future.
However, after coming to Silken City for a period of time and experiencing three wars, the initial excitement gradually disappeared.
Watching some of the great figures around him die caused his heart to tremble incessantly.
This was a war between cultivators!
An extremely cruel war!
As long as both sides fought, there might be people who would die at every moment. If they were lucky, their Nascent Souls would be able to escape alive, and if they were unlucky … they would be annihilated on the spot.
This caused Zhao Qiansun to be slightly dazed. He was unable to imagine how a tiny Silken City could possess such formidable strength. Was that terrifying pressure that enveloped the entire Silken City really the legendary dragon might?
Where did those two peak-stage Nascent Soul Realm great cultivators come from? Their strengths were extremely formidable, and they were already halfway into the Spirit Refinement Realm. Why did they defend Silken City to the death?
And that huge rooster, where did this monster come from? He'd never heard of such a terrifying living being in the Radiant Dimension.
A rooster was able to charge left and right while being besieged by over a hundred Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, and it was actually able to kill so many great cultivators while suffering light injuries …
All of this caused a nobody like Zhao Qiansun to have a feeling that this battle wasn't as easy to fight as he'd imagined! Moreover, during this recent period of time, more and more whispers had caused him to slightly come to an understanding that this battle wasn't as righteous as he'd imagined!
It was even to the extent that … this was a battle of aggression through and through!
Without any reason or justification, it was purely bullying!
How could it be like this?
Zhao Qiansun was a young man that had an extremely strong sense of justice in his heart. He'd always felt that no matter if it was an ordinary person or a cultivator, their hearts had to be filled with the strength of justice.
But reality seemed to be slightly different from what he'd imagined. From subduing demons and devils that were filled with justice to purely bullying others … This difference was slightly huge.
"Zhao Qiansun!" Meanwhile, someone suddenly shouted out loudly. "The Sect Master has given the order to prepare food and wine immediately. We're launching the fourth attack at midnight today! This time, we must flatten the entire Silken City! "
Zhao Qiansun replied, and then he was slightly dazed as he muttered. "The fourth … Are we going to flatten it?"
