The Temple Keeper still felt a bit wistful when it came to the title of King Chariot.

After all, considering the situation more than a thousand years ago, let alone having 500,000 heavy cavalry, even if one only had 50,000 heavy cavalry, one could say that fate changes, divine weapons change hands, and they belong to the virtuous; this is the natural order.

But who would have thought that the imperial court would say something like, "Netherworld Soldiers and Ghost Generals," implying that they wanted to establish Ghost Kingdom on earth.

This then attracted an attack from all the forces in the world.

Even cults got involved.

Five hundred thousand heavy cavalry, plus various auxiliary troops and Qi Qi, totaling at least one million six or seven hundred thousand, were thus fragmented into pieces.

They were gradually swallowed up by the imperial army.

The one who escaped here was one of the three vanguard generals under King Chariot.

This King Chariot had ten generals under his command, including one commander, two generals, three vanguards, four grain supervisors, and ten generals in total.

Apart from the commander-in-chief who leads 50,000 heavy cavalry, each of the other commanders leads 10,000 heavy cavalry, and the rest are personally led by the King Chariot.

This vanguard was chased all the way here, and was eventually Ambush from All Sides and wiped out by an army of fifty or sixty thousand.

At that time, more than ten generals of the imperial court, whose names were known, died in battle.

Just think about what the Great Feng Dynasty became after this battle.

Since then, all the major sects and Esteemed Family that were originally out of power have risen up in one fell swoop, obeying the royal family's orders. They are not allowed to leave the capital, let alone their own palaces.

In reality, the actual control of this area falls into the hands of the Daoist sect of Wen Shan Path.

The tiger was able to secure its position Mountain Deity by defeating the experts sent by the Wen Shan Path sect.

Now that Gu Xi has killed the tiger, as long as it doesn't incite widespread resentment, Wen Shan Path won't interfere.

After expressing his feelings, the Temple Keeper then recounted the story of the King Chariot.

This information completely silenced Gu Xi.

This King Chariot is truly formidable, commanding 500,000 heavy cavalry.

I don't know if this is a knight-level or Death Knight- level character.

But no matter what, with such a force, they can do whatever they want anywhere.

In the end, he was actually killed.

How frustrated he must have felt.

However, this also made Gu Xi realize that the world before him was quite complex.

Don't underestimate this Mountain Deity just because he's only level 10. Who knows which sect might have a level 20 expert backing him up?

Let's focus on our immediate goals first, and settle down here.

"Okay, you've explained it in great detail. Do you see those Skeleton Soldiers? They've already picked off most of the Chang Ghost in Chinese mythology). You take those Skeleton Soldiers and get to work."

"Let me be frank with you, I don't need food or anything like that, what I need are all kinds of minerals."

Upon hearing this, the Temple Keeper knew that Wang Lizheng had been kicked out.

Now, the only one who can compete with him for the position of Mountain Deity is Du Shusheng.

So he quickly went forward and beckoned to Gu Xi's Skeleton Soldier, leading him to a certain location.

"Start digging from here, there's definitely something down there."

Gu Xi glanced over here and then gave Shaya a wink.

Shaya quickly approached Gu Xi.

"Sir, let me go instead."

"No, the Mountain God Temple is related to whether we can establish ourselves here. I'll go and handle it."

"You stay here and keep watch. If the suppressing magic array here is destroyed and the ghost soldiers appear, don't stop them. We'll discuss everything when I get back."

Gu Xi originally intended to stay where he was, waiting for the suppression array to be removed so he could take those Netherworld Soldiers and Ghost Generals away.

However, the Mountain God Temple is the key to Gu Xi. Gu Xi cannot give up his foundation for a wave of the Undead Army.

Therefore, Gu Xi quickly made a decision: he would leave Shaya to keep watch here while he led a portion of his Gu Xi to the Mountain God Temple.

The souls of the hunters who escaped must be retrieved.

We can't let him get away like this.

After leaping onto the Evil Coffin, Gu Xi raised the Cold Wind Staff in his hand, and the Nether Soul Dragon appeared behind Gu Xi.

At the same time, half of the Undead Army forces automatically separated and followed Gu Xi under the leadership of the Undead Headman.

Seeing Gu Xi leave with his troops, the Temple Keeper and other Chang Ghost reacted in different ways, but they did not forget their duties and continued to work diligently.

After leaving the valley, Gu Xi discovered that the road there was quite difficult to travel.

Outside the valley, all you can see are mountains.

There's a reason why over ten thousand heavy cavalry were wiped out here.

The heavy cavalry's Group Charge was completely ineffective here, and sometimes the heavy cavalry even had to dismount to fight.

Moreover, the mountains here are layered upon layered, and a large army can be ambushed anywhere.

This kind of Ambush from All Sides Tactics is most suitable to be carried out in such a place.

Entering this mountain forest is like entering a net that stretches to the Heavenly Net; without some skill, it's impossible to escape.

Not long after Gu Xi entered the mountains, the Gargoyle that had been sent out returned, having already located the Mountain God Temple.

Judging from the Gargoyle's reaction, the Mountain God Temple is no longer heavily guarded, so Gu Xi can just go straight there.

However, Gu Xi was not careless. Although advancing with his troops was slower, it was safer. Gu Xi had just entered this world and did not yet understand the situation. Gu Xi did not want anything to happen in any corner.

They circled around several hills and finally appeared at the location of the Mountain God Temple.

As Gu Xi approached the mountain, he immediately had a strange feeling.

The mountain in front of us is clearly a picturesque landscape, with sunlight naturally filtering through the forest, creating a sense of natural beauty from afar.

But for some reason, Gu Xi felt that the mountain forest in front of him was gloomy, and when the mountain wind blew, a fishy smell that was completely different from the style of the mountain forest hit him.

"Is this the place?"

Gu Xi stood on the Evil Coffin and looked into the mountains and forests before finally asking that one question.

The Gargoyle nodded affirmatively; they had come here following the hunter's soul.

Gu Xi thought for a moment, then pointed towards the mountains and forests.

"Marching forward!"

Under Gu Xi's command, the Skeleton Soldier began to move forward. As the Skeleton Soldier led the way, Gu Xi discovered the reason for the anomaly in the forest: the tiger was not a human being at all.

He would spit out everything he ate and leave it in the forest.

It was fine if we didn't get close, but once we got close to the trees and bushes, we found nothing but dried-out corpses.

Even a necromancer like Gu Xi couldn't stand such an aura.

"Summoning Tower!"

After releasing the Summoning Tower, Gu Xi did not directly step into the area of Mountain God Temple. Instead, he stood on the Summoning Tower, raised the Cold Wind Staff, and pointed it at the mountain forest.

"Summoning!"
