The Earthly Deity lineage among Shamans was skilled at borrowing the force of mountain and river deities. With the protection of a corresponding deity, they could trigger localized earthquakes as early as the eighth rank, or make rivers change course.
The advantage such power brought in war was self-evident.
But it was not unbeatable.
Military School cultivators were also adept at exploiting favorable terrain, and could draw upon the harmony of the people.
Heavenly gods? Earthly deities?
How could they contend against the harmony of the people!
The Military School was one of the great branches of the Human Path.
The Human Path trusted heaven and earth least of all.
Man was destined to conquer heaven!
"Form the array! Raise the soldiers!" the officer shouted.
The others immediately raised their weapons, only to see a strange connection establish itself around them.
The blades and weapons of every soldier flared with red light.
Fire burned at their tips—this was Soldier's Qi.
Blood qi lay within the fire—this was Killing Intent!
Soldier's Qi and Killing Intent intertwined, manifesting a strange phenomenon above their heads.
Their aura linked together like melon vines, like men holding blades and shields, a sea of crimson, as red as blood.
Li Qi watched from beneath the water and immediately realized that this was a military formation similar to Shan Dazhuang's!
It was simply far stronger than Shan Dazhuang's formation had been.
Li Qi could see the vicious balefulness within it! Crimson as battle banners, soldiers beneath it, its momentum vast and immense—it was absolutely beyond anything he could contend with!
There were only nine of them, yet their might was this terrifying.
Fortunately, he was in the water. Everything was still proceeding according to plan.
Never had he been so grateful that he had practiced Wave-Pushing Strength.
