"I have slain Wulan!" Ning Zhuo's spirit surged.He was merely at the Foundation Establishment stage, yet on the battlefield, he had forcefully killed a cultivator of the Golden Core level.In terms of actual combat prowess, Wulan was no ordinary Golden Core; he was definitely a strong figure among Golden Core cultivators. "Cultivation's myriad arts are like levers, capable of continuously amplifying the initial power.""Through mechanism arts and battle formations, I condense military might, augment myself, and slaying a Golden Core expert is not such a strange thing."Ning Zhuo quickly calmed down."How much military merit can one Golden Core expert account for?""It's nothing significant.""What I should be thinking about is how to slay more Golden Core cultivators, and even Nascent Soul level enemies!"Tu Ming, who was present just now, had already fled.This Great Priest of the Hundred Poisons Tribe, after escaping the ambush last time, actively ran away again this time."I wonder if Shen Qinghe can pursue him?""Shen Qinghe is a renowned Nascent Soul cultivator of the Brocade Flower Kingdom, specializing in the Azure Spirit Pure Poison Scripture, which specifically counters poison cultivators.""But Tu Ming is the local serpent here, familiar with the terrain, and it's not impossible for him to have set up teleportation formations in advance."Ning Zhuo thought for a moment, immediately withdrew his thoughts, and shifted his burning gaze towards the purplish-black poisonous mist.Desolate Wilderness felt a chill throughout his body within the poisonous mist!There were three of them on this trip in total. Now, the strongest, Tu Ming, had fled, and Wulan, who was of equal cultivation, had become a corpse, leaving only him.One person alone cannot stand!"Escape!" Desolate Wilderness shouted, frantically urging his magic power, condensing over a hundred poisonous mist clones, and fleeing in separate directions.These poisonous mist clones were purplish-black all over. To conceal himself, Desolate Wilderness also wrapped himself in a layer of purplish-black poisonous mist."Where do you think you're going!" Zhang Hei roared, swinging the Black Snake Spear in his hand, simultaneously channeling magic power and military force, once again employing the art of war—a massive army压境 (pressing down).A vast multitude of soldiers surged past, submerging more than half of the poisonous mist clones.Innate Talent—Purple Whisker Startling Rainbow!Guan Hong also used his innate talent to fix a small portion of the poisonous mist clones in place, followed by the blade light of the Blood Dragon Saber.Desolate Wilderness was hidden among them, and his purplish-black poisonous mist disguise was shattered.Liu Er, holding the Mysterious Yellow Sword, immediately charged over.Desolate Wilderness's eyes were wide with rage, his will to fight to the death completely ignited: "If you want my life, at least one of you must be buried with me!"Poison Technique—Netherworld Poison 同歸 (returning together, implying mutual destruction)!Desolate Wilderness's entire body turned purple, transforming into a purple poison person. He turned back and charged directly towards Liu Er.Liu Er was startled and quickly retreated.But Desolate Wilderness was incredibly fast, quickly closing the distance, and it looked like he was about to reach Liu Er.At the critical moment, Guan Hong arrived to support."Do not harm my brother!"Guan Hong extended his right arm and struck forcefully.Martial Art—Right Block.His right arm erupted with profound light, like a shield, blocking the desperate counterattack of Desolate Wilderness.The next moment, Desolate Wilderness exploded with a bang.In the explosion, purplish-black air currents swept in all directions. A poisonous spear, only the size of a palm but extraordinarily sharp, shot out from within, directly piercing through the profound light and into the arm bone of Guan Hong's right arm.Even a tough man like Guan Hong let out a low roar due to the intense pain."Second Brother!" Liu Er rushed over, casting a spell that landed on the wound of Guan Hong's right arm.In just a few breaths, the wound had already corroded the flesh, leaving only bone residue.Under Liu Er's spell, the bone was barely saved, not being corroded into two halves.Guan Hong put away the Blood Dragon Saber, grasped his right forearm with his left hand, and retreated back into the military formation.This caused Ning Zhuo's heart to leap."War is dangerous and unpredictable!""I still need to be cautious.""Even the formidable Guan Hong was injured by this. If I were in the same situation, my plight would be even more difficult.""After all, my body cultivation foundation is far inferior to the three generals Liu, Guan, and Zhang."Ning Zhuo also realized now that in such large-scale battles, if a cultivator possesses a certain body cultivation foundation, it is quite advantageous.According to the three supreme methods Ning Zhuo cultivated, there were no weaknesses.However, currently, Ning Zhuo was ultimately more proficient in magic arts.It wasn't that he was lazy in his cultivation or that his cultivation method was incomplete; it was simply that he had too little time for cultivation.Ning Zhuo was only sixteen years old now.Before, in Medicine King Valley, he greatly improved his close combat ability. But this improvement was only in comparison to himself previously. Compared to elite Golden Core cultivators like Liu, Guan, and Zhang, it was naturally far inferior.Cleaning up the battlefield was not difficult.Because this time, the opponents of the Three Generals Camp were only three people.Wulan's body was collected by Ning Zhuo, while Desolate Wilderness, due to self-detonation, even his Golden Core was gone, leaving no trace of his remains.The work of the Three Generals Camp in cleaning up the battlefield was mainly to collect the bodies of their own fallen comrades.This point alone was not something ordinary cultivators could accomplish.Because the remains after being poisoned, without proper and complete means, even approaching them posed a risk of poisoning.The foundation of the Three Generals Camp was shallow after all. After Ning Zhuo sacrificed more than a dozen mechanism puppets and Liu Er personally took action, they finally temporarily handled the bodies of their comrades properly and then collected them one by one.In the cultivation world, there are many demonic methods that are very skilled at utilizing these bodies.Therefore, bodies on the battlefield often need to be recovered.These bodies would be transported back to the kingdom, and most would be buried in the family's ancestral land.This was not only about returning to one's roots but also beneficial to their respective families, allowing the deceased family members to quickly reunite with their ancestors after descending to the netherworld, preventing them from becoming lonely souls and wandering ghosts.After being busy for more than an hour, the Three Generals Camp awaited Shen Qinghe.Shen Qinghe's robes were stained with much blood and poison, but her expression was still calm and indifferent.Liu Er's heart sank when he saw Shen Qinghe return empty-handed, and he bowed.Shen Qinghe's eyes were clear. As soon as Liu Er spoke, she saw through his true intention and interrupted directly: "Tu Ming fled."Liu, Guan, Zhang, Ning, and others sighed in their hearts almost simultaneously.As a Nascent Soul True Monarch and the Great Priest of the Hundred Poisons Tribe, Tu Ming's combat power and status were both extraordinary. If he could be captured, the military merit of the Three Generals Camp this time would be immense.But Shen Qinghe had gained nothing. The military merit on the Three Generals Camp's side was only the lives of Wulan and Desolate Wilderness, two Golden Core cultivators.Liu Er quickly offered words of comfort, expressing his concern for Elder Shen Qinghe and his deep gratitude for her timely arrival to assist in the battle.Shen Qinghe shook her head slightly: "It was Du Tiechuan's arrangement.""He dispatched four routes of troops and also estimated the response of the Thousand Peaks Forest.""Looking at it now, his estimation was quite accurate.""Alright, after this battle, you can return to the army."Liu, Guan, Zhang, and Ning were very surprised.Liu Er even doubted if he had heard correctly until Shen Qinghe took out a jade slip.The content of the jade slip was Du Tiechuan's new military order, and the seal he had affixed was quickly verified.Du Tiechuan ordered the Three Generals Camp to return, because probing the reality of the Thousand Peaks Forest had reached this point and had a clear result.He requested that the Three Generals Camp preferably speed up and rush to the corresponding location to participate in the great battle.Moreover, he warned in the letter that if the Three Generals Camp had any facts or tendencies of delaying, there would be a strict reckoning after the battle.Liu Er's expression was complex, and for a moment, he couldn't help but have a new understanding of Du Tiechuan. He sighed: "Commander Du... worthy of being the commander dispatched by the Two Zhu Kingdom."Ning Zhuo's thoughts, however, were not focused here.He was using his divine sense to communicate with Sun Lingtong, discussing: "Boss, from the looks of it, Du Tiechuan has also arranged reinforcements on the other three routes."Sun Lingtong strongly agreed with this guess: "Xiao Zhuo, that's what I think too. You have no opportunity to earn merit in the Three Generals Camp anymore. Why not go to the other routes and try your luck? Maybe you can gain more military merit!"Sun Lingtong truly deserved to be Ning Zhuo's best brother. Before Ning Zhuo's idea was spoken, he had already said it first.Ning Zhuo nodded: "In that case, I will go to the Red Flower Camp first."The other three routes were the Red Flower Camp, the Savage Demon Camp, and the Golden Halberd Army.Sun Gan of the Golden Halberd Army did not have a good relationship with Ning Zhuo, and the Golden Halberd Army, as one of the Imperial Guard units, had the most outstanding strength. Ning Zhuo felt that if he went there, he would likely be ostracized and seen as trying to snatch credit.Xu Dali of the Savage Demon Camp was also unfamiliar with Ning Zhuo. Furthermore, this person was stubborn and difficult to change, and Ning Zhuo felt that getting along with him would be troublesome.The real first choice was the Red Flower Camp. The commander of the Red Flower Camp, Mu Lan, and Ning Zhuo were old acquaintances, so old that they even had a husband-and-wife relationship.Moreover, the most crucial point was that Mu Lan had once given Ning Zhuo a talisman and instructed Ning Zhuo: In a crisis, he could crush and use it to teleport to the Red Flower Camp.If he was outside the teleportation range, it could also send him halfway to the correct location.Thinking of this, Ning Zhuo bid farewell to Liu, Guan, and Zhang.After hearing this, Zhang Hei immediately stood up: "Alright, Military Advisor, you want to go to the other side to earn merit, take me with you. Fighting these three poison users is not fun at all!"Guan Hong stroked his beard and also showed a look of interest. But the next moment, he frowned slightly, as the severe pain from his right arm injury reminded him that what he should be doing most was resting and recuperating.When Liu Er heard that Ning Zhuo wanted to leave and even wanted to meet up with the Red Flower Camp, he felt extremely disgusted and nauseated.He forcefully suppressed these negative emotions and expressed concern to Ning Zhuo: "How can this be?""Military Advisor, you have just experienced an intense battle, and your mechanism puppets have suffered heavy losses.""Moreover, you are only at the Foundation Establishment cultivation level, and you are now in enemy territory, full of dangers. Military Advisor, if you act away from the main army, the danger is too great."Hearing this, Ning Zhuo immediately let out a laugh: "General Liu is unaware, before leaving Wooden Wheel Town, General Mu Lan secretly gifted me a life-saving talisman..."Ning Zhuo briefly introduced the power of this talisman to everyone present.Even in severe pain, Guan Hong's expression remained unchanged, and he said calmly: "Military Advisor has such a method, it's really safe to eat and drink."Zhang Hei, however, lamented: "In this case, I cannot travel with you, Military Advisor."Saying this, he was still unwilling and looked at Liu Er: "Elder Brother, how about I act alone, let the Military Advisor go first, and I will catch up later to the Red Flower Camp to assist the friendly army!"Liu Er's eye twitched when he heard about the life-saving talisman. Hearing that Zhang Hei also wanted to follow Ning Zhuo, his heart was filled with displeasure.He glared at Zhang Hei: "Third Brother, stop being foolish!"He was about to continue persuading Ning Zhuo.As a result, how could Ning Zhuo be someone whose mind could be changed by a few words? He simply cupped his hands: "Three Generals, we will find an opportunity to meet up later. This humble one shall take his leave first and strive to return early."Ning Zhuo quickly left the Three Generals Camp and came to a wild area.He first dispatched a large number of mechanism puppets, actively destroying them and augmenting himself.He first augmented himself to the Golden Core level before taking out Mu Lan's talisman and decisively crushing it.The next moment, space produced ripples, forming intense fluctuations that swallowed Ning Zhuo within.Moon Hook Giant Wood Mountain.In the deep night, the crescent moon hanging high had already hooked the third red flower dharma appearance.The entire Red Flower Camp huddled together, struggling to defend.Their opponent was a rain of arrows descending from the sky.Each arrow was composed of moonlight, containing deadly killing intent within its brilliance.And Di Lu, as a Nascent Soul level savage cultivator, was skilled in close combat and was currently clashing with Mu Lan, neither gaining the upper hand for a while, and the battle became increasingly fierce."Damn it!""Without being able to form the Red Flower Dharma Appearance, our army is truly in a dangerous situation."The Red Flower Camp mainly cultivated the Red Flower Battle Formation.In this disadvantaged situation, only the Red Flower Battlefield could stabilize their position. Regarding this, Mu Lan had experienced hundreds of battles and knew it very well.Therefore, she did not hesitate to consume a large amount of military force and made a third attempt, but still failed to form the formation.Di Lu snorted coldly: "Mu Lan, don't try to struggle in vain. This is where you will be buried!"The scene of Mu Lan and the Red Flower Camp struggling bitterly fell into the eyes of a Nascent Soul cultivator.On the shoulder of the Nascent Soul cultivator stood a myna bird.The myna bird also possessed a Nascent Soul level aura, and at this moment, it transmitted a message with its divine sense: "Master, if we don't act now, this army will truly suffer heavy losses."The Nascent Soul cultivator nodded slightly: "The Red Flower Camp is indeed an elite force, and it would be a pity to lose it."But the order I received is exactly this: to deliberately delay time and sit by and watch the Red Flower Camp suffer huge losses, or even be wiped out, is acceptable.""As long as Mu Lan's life is ultimately preserved."The myna bird was startled: "Another instance of court infighting! Hmph, how disappointing."The person and the bird successively fell into silence, no longer speaking, just quietly watching the battle.If nothing unexpected happened, this battle situation would evolve according to their wishes.But the marvel of reality is that accidents always happen unexpectedly."Ning Zhuo used the life-saving talisman I gave him?" Mu Lan hesitated for a moment.With a bite of her lip, she didn't hesitate to consume a large amount of military force to pull Ning Zhuo in.The next moment, space shook, and a person appeared out of thin air in the center of the battlefield.This person was dressed in white, looked like a young man, and had a slightly large head.Who else could it be but Ning Zhuo?"Who is it?""Just Golden Core?""No, he's not even Golden Core, just a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator!"The Ancient God Cang Yue, who was presiding over the dojo, was first startled, then relaxed.But Di urged him with divine sense to be careful of Ning Zhuo, as Ning Zhuo had performed quite brilliantly in the previous ambush."Even if he is strong, he is only at the Golden Core level." Ancient God Cang Yue had been a deity, high above for too long, and still did not put Ning Zhuo in his eyes.Ning Zhuo quickly surveyed the battlefield, suppressing his surprise at the night, and said: "So it's a dojo again." "Heh heh, we have one too.""Old Ban, come out for me!""Yes, Master." The next moment, the Bone Devil God transformed into its original form and entered the stage with a roar.The Bone Dojo also immediately spread out, quickly eroding a space and competing with the Cang Yue Dojo.Ancient God Cang Yue's expression changed instantly, and he cried out in surprise: "Dice Bone Devil God! What's wrong with you?!"Bone Devil God: "Ancient God Cang Yue, it's not too late to abandon the dark and embrace the light now."Ancient God Cang Yue was instantly furious: "I... you..."
