Behind a barren hillside, hundreds of men in black suddenly appeared. They immediately formed a battle formation and guarded the surroundings. Their movements were quite well-trained, and their cooperation was quite tacit. Yue Qianchou was dressed in black, but he did not cover his face like the others. Only Guan Yu, who was sitting on the horse, was still dressed in a green robe.
The wind whistled! Yue Qianchou looked around. This was the location he had chosen when he was scouting. From a tactical point of view, this place was more suitable for gathering troops than the Spirit Stone Mine not far away. Moreover, it was the most suitable place for so many people to advance stealthily.
"Follow me in a row!" Yue Qianchou shouted softly. A flying sword gently lifted him up, and he flew along the undulating mountain range. A row of people followed closely behind, all of them moving forward while staying a little above the ground.
Guan Yu waved his hand, and the rest of the people quickly dispersed in groups. Only three company commanders were left by his side.
Yue Qianchou brought more than 30 people to a col and hid. Aung Kwang-tsung's Spirit Stone Mine was at the bottom of a slope in front of them. They could already hear the shouts of the people inside. If they showed their heads now, they would definitely be discovered by the people on the high ground. He needed to wait for the others to surround the Spirit Stone Mine within the stipulated time. Then, he would launch a sudden attack. At that time, even if the other party discovered them, it would not be much of a problem. It would be enough to catch them off guard.
There were no unusual movements in the surroundings. Obviously, the other people's encirclement had not been discovered by Aung Kwang-tsung's people. At this time, if someone looked down from the sky, they would see that there were hundreds of black shadows surrounding the Spirit Stone Mine. In fact, this method was not very safe. The safest way would be to suddenly appear in the Spirit Stone Mine and quickly launch a surprise attack.
But the key was that when Yue Qianchou came to investigate, there was no way to enter the mine. He could only secretly observe from the periphery. He could not run in and leave a positioning mark in a suitable place for everyone to appear instantly. Because Yue Qianchou had the Golden Pearl, if he controlled his breathing and remained motionless, it was estimated that no one would be able to discover him. However, if he were to sneak in, there would inevitably be some movement. With his cultivation, it would be very difficult to hide from the Nascent Soul experts inside.
Estimating that it was about time, Yue Qianchou made a ready gesture to everyone. One of his hands made a gesture of five, four, three, two, one. Everyone stared at the movements of his hands, and the flying sword in their hands was ready. When the last finger was flicked, Yue Qianchou took the lead and fiercely flew out of the col on his sword. The thirty or so people below him all flew out in a flash.
Yue Qianchou's mind moved. His fingers pointed to a tall wooden building in front of him. Hundreds of flying swords suddenly appeared around him. "Xiu Xiu …" They shot out like a storm. On the wooden building, there were two disciples of Foundation Establishment stage leaning on it and watching the scenery with boredom. Although their duty was to observe the surrounding situation and prevent sudden danger, no one would think that robbing the Spirit Stone Mine would happen easily. After all, Aung Kwang-tsung was not an ordinary sect. The Magic Illusion Palace was an example.
When they heard the sound and turned around to find the hundreds of cold lights, it was too late. The flying swords were as fast as lightning. The speed of the flying swords was Yue Qianchou's forte. It was suitable for a sneak attack. "Puff puff puff …" The hundreds of flying swords smashed the wooden building on the high road. A few puffs of blood exploded and limbs fell.
The hundreds of flying swords quickly returned to Yue Qianchou's side like locusts, protecting his body. More than thirty people quickly flew over the collapsed wooden building. Yue Qianchou pointed the sword in his hand at a cave. The information provided by the Enchantress of Hundred Charms proved that it was the place where the communication array was set up. The dozens of people shot over at their fastest speed. In the meantime, a few Aung Kwang-tsung disciples ran over. However, they were unable to block the fierce attack led by the Nascent Soul stage black-clothed members. With a single blow, several people were already dismembered.
Just as a few people stuck their heads out of the cave to see what was going on outside, dozens of people each took out a spirit talisman and threw it in. A series of loud crackling sounds came from inside, followed by miserable screams. Among the dozens of people, a few people immediately guarded the cave entrance. The rest all rushed in.
With the sound of movement, Guan Yu rode his horse to the top of a spirit stone mine. He stroked his long beard and pulled out a large flag from his storage pouch. "Hai!" With a sound, he inserted it into the mountain top. The "Hero" flag fluttered in the wind. This was the signal for an all-out attack.
"How dare you! Who dares to provoke me, Aung Kwang-tsung! " A figure flew out from a row of wooden houses in the mine. Then, as if a nest had exploded, all the disciples guarding the mine of Aung Kwang-tsung flew out. Looking around, a group of black-clothed people had already surrounded the mine in the mountain. From the stunned expressions of many people, it could be seen that they clearly had not reacted to what was happening.
A small black flag appeared in the hands of the Third Company's commander beside Guan Yu. He raised his hand and waved it. More than a hundred people belonging to the Third Company immediately shot into the crowd from all directions and attacked fiercely. Immediately, the scene of the Aung Kwang-tsung disciples surrounding the more than a hundred people of the Third Company appeared. For a moment, there was a flash of light, and the sounds of fighting could be heard incessantly. With a cold snort from Guan Yu, a small black flag also appeared in the hands of the Second Company's commander. He raised it and waved it left and right. The Aung Kwang-tsung disciples who were fighting the Third Company in the mine were immediately surrounded by more than a hundred people from the outside. A massacre had begun.
Aung Kwang-tsung was immediately attacked from all sides. He was in a precarious situation and could be annihilated at any time. This was a battle without any suspense. The people from Utopia were originally the elite disciples of the top three sects in the Orthodox and Devil Sects. They had been through a long period of killing in the Demon Ghost Region. In terms of fighting, they were top-notch experts among people of the same cultivation level. Half of them were at the Nascent Soul stage and half of them were at the Core Formation stage. After going through military training, they emphasized on mutual cooperation. If one person attacked, there would definitely be two to three people to help defend. As for Aung Kwang-tsung, most of them were at the Foundation Establishment stage. There was only one person who was at the late stage of the Nascent Soul stage. That person had long been entangled and beaten up by a few Nascent Soul stage cultivators.
The Company Commander raised his hand and clenched his fist. The remaining two platoons immediately narrowed the encirclement to prevent anyone from taking the opportunity to escape.
On the other side, after Yue Qianchou successfully destroyed the communication array in the cave with his men, he immediately ordered the platoon to ignore the other fights and split into groups of two to three to search for the miners in the various caves. The miners were disciples who did not have any artifacts, so they had to be captured alive. Those who could not be captured alive were to be killed on the spot.
The platoon immediately accepted the order and dispersed. Yue Qianchou flew to Guan Yu's side. It just so happened that the late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator from Aung Kwang-tsung saw that the situation was hopeless and tried to break through the encirclement to escape. Yue Qianchou coldly glanced at him and shouted in a deep voice, "Kill!" He did not have a good impression of these so-called elders from Aung Kwang-tsung.
The three late Nascent Soul stage company commanders beside Guan Yu flashed over at the same time, and with a joint attack in midair, they knocked the man down on the spot. The three Nascent Soul stage cultivators who were originally surrounding him also flew up from below, three on top, and three below. The six of them attacked in midair, and the late Nascent Soul stage cultivator from the Azure Light Sect let out a miserable scream, and turned into a rain of blood. The three Company Commanders flew back to Guan Yu's side as if nothing had happened.
The battle ended very quickly. From the start of the attack to the end, it only took a quarter of an hour. Yue Qianchou looked at his subordinates in the field. After the battle, not a single one of them died. Only a few of them were slightly injured. With such an absolute advantage, coupled with careful preparation and a surprise attack, they should be able to achieve such a result. Yue Qianchou nodded in satisfaction and shouted, "Don't hesitate, clean up the battlefield. Take everything you can, quickly!"
The remaining two platoons immediately rushed down. At the same time, more than ten Nascent Soul stage cultivators flew in all directions to help. The group of people immediately moved. Those Aung Kwang-tsung disciples who were lying on the ground and dying were immediately stabbed a few more times. There was no need to leave those who couldn't be saved alive. This was one of the subjects in the previous drill. Then, a large-scale sweep began. Storage bags and the like were directly pulled out from the corpses. Even a flying sword that had fallen to the ground was not spared.
The platoon that had been ordered by Yue Qianchou to capture the miners escorted a group of people out one after another. These miners were people who were not well-liked in Aung Kwang-tsung, and they had suffered a lot here. During the capture process, almost no one resisted. At this moment, when they saw the corpses of the Aung Kwang-tsung disciples on the ground, they did not have a trace of pity on their faces. Instead, when they faced the men in black around them, their expressions were filled with fear, not knowing what would happen to them.
The platoon leader came over and reported, "Leader, all the miners that can be captured are here." Yue Qianchou waved his hand to dismiss him. He leaped into the air and pressed down with his palm. His divine sense enveloped the trembling miners, and the platoon of people instantly entered Utopia. He then walked to the side of the Aung Kwang-tsung disciples who were injured but could still be healed. With a wave of his hand, he sent them back to Utopia.
After the entire Spirit Stone Mine was swept, everyone quickly gathered together. Guan Yu took out a small black flag with the word 'Hero' embroidered on it in gold. He waved his hand and shot it at a stone pillar. With a "ding", the black flag was inserted into it. Guan Yu returned to the team. Yue Qianchou waved his hands, and everyone disappeared. The Spirit Stone Mine of Aung Kwang-tsung, which had been bathed in blood, was dead silent. Only the shattered corpses on the ground could prove that a fierce battle had taken place here …
