Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have picked up 15 points of Vitality! Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have picked up 20 points of Vitality! Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have picked up 10 points of Comprehension! Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have picked up the talent—Unyielding Resilience!

Ding Hao led the Elite Vanguard Camp soldiers onward, charging and slaughtering across the battlefield.

Clearly, many elite soldiers from Great Zhou and the Northern Barbarians had died here. The attribute points he picked up were far greater than before!

He had even unexpectedly picked up a new talent.

The talent Unyielding Resilience could make one's will unyielding and resilient, greatly immunizing one against negative sensations such as fatigue and pain.

As Unyielding Resilience fused with him, Ding Hao's entire body shuddered. The fatigue and pain suffusing him seemed to vanish by more than half.

"This talent's got kick. Kill!!"

With that, Ding Hao fought with even greater vigor. On top of that, his cultivation was still rapidly rising as he fused with vast amounts of Vitality attributes!

One man and one blade mowed down the Northern Barbarian soldiers before him like weeds!

Because of his ferocity and might, the five hundred remaining men of the Elite Vanguard Camp seemed to possess even thirty percent more combat power than when they had numbered over a thousand. The surrounding barbarian soldiers were slaughtered until they wailed for their fathers and mothers, fear sprouting in their hearts.

"Ah!"

"Are these still those lowly, weak Great Zhou monkeys?"

"These Great Zhou people are too strong! Our Northern Barbarian warriors can't stop them at all!"

On the battlefield, once fear emerged, it spread like contagion. Before long, the morale of the barbarian soldiers here had plummeted considerably!

"Damn it! Everyone, press forward! Press forward for this general!"

"It's merely the Elite Vanguard Camp! Even if we have to pile up corpses, we must bury them to death!"

At that moment, the Northern Barbarian commander roared, issuing a stern order to encircle and annihilate the Elite Vanguard Camp!

Otherwise—

Once the Elite Vanguard Camp built up its momentum, it would become difficult to slaughter the Great Zhou soldiers here. No, it should be said that it was already extremely difficult!

The Great Zhou Divine Phoenix Army soldiers here could be seen roaring as they counterattacked madly. The speed at which they were being wiped out by the barbarian soldiers had dropped drastically!

Thus, the Elite Vanguard Camp became the target of the barbarian soldiers' full-force annihilation!

If the Elite Vanguard Camp remained, morale remained!

If the Elite Vanguard Camp fell, morale fell!

It could be said—

This Elite Vanguard Camp had become the key to the barbarian army's plan to annihilate Luo Shenhuang!

Northern Barbarian soldiers surged toward the Elite Vanguard Camp like a tidal wave, launching a savage assault!

Even though the Elite Vanguard Camp soldiers were strong—the finest among elites—they still suffered massive casualties. Many Sixth-rank Martial Artists were hacked to death beneath a flurry of blades, and in the end, even their formation was completely smashed apart!

Among them, Ding Hao was also separated from the others.

At a glance, apart from himself, enemies seemed to fill every direction. Each one bared fangs and brandished claws, vicious as ghosts!

Fortunately—

Thanks to the talent Unyielding Resilience, Ding Hao did not panic. While picking up attributes, he slaughtered madly!

"Heavenly Tyrant Body!"

"Raging Storm!"

"Wind Treading Steps!"

"Golden Bell Shield!"

"Tyrant Blade Slash!!"

"..."

At this moment, Ding Hao unleashed nearly every ability he had, fighting with all his strength!

One barbarian soldier after another fell beneath his blade. The air was filled with the stench of blood, and a rain of gore splashed across his face.

But the barbarian soldiers surged like a raging tide. However many he killed, just as many rushed in a moment later, as though they could never be slaughtered clean, never be killed to the last!

And so—

Amid the chaotic battlefield, Ding Hao did not know whether the other members of the Elite Vanguard Camp were alive, nor did he know whether Luo Shenhuang and the others had been annihilated!

He only knew that if the barbarian soldiers who had died by his hand did not number a thousand, they numbered at least eight hundred!

A small mountain had gradually risen beneath his feet—a mountain of corpses piled from barbarian bodies. Around it, blood had long since flowed into a river!

"Roar!"

"You killed so many Northern Barbarian warriors! Die for this general!"

A furious roar suddenly rang out beside his ear. A hulking man nearly two meters tall swung a massive spear down at him with savage force!

He was a ninth-rank martial artist, a deputy general of the Northern Barbarian Army!

Clearly, Ding Hao's ferocity had made him a priority target for the Northern Barbarian Army's concentrated assault!

Blade and spear collided, erupting with a deafening metallic blast. Combined with the charge of the warhorse and Ding Hao's waning strength—

He was sent stumbling back more than a dozen steps. Even with the Heavenly Tyrant Body, his blood and qi churned violently, and he spat out blood on the spot.

Having landed a blow, the Northern Barbarian deputy general pressed his attack like a torrential downpour!

His massive spear spun up layer upon layer of afterimages, every strike heavy and crushing. Meanwhile, the barbarian soldiers around them continued harassing Ding Hao without pause.

For a moment, Ding Hao's situation became perilous in the extreme!!

"Primordial Barbarian Bloodline, explode for me!"

At that critical moment, Ding Hao decisively activated the wisp of Primordial Barbarian Bloodline he had picked up from Man Poqi, the former defender of Duan Yun Pass!

Though it was only a single wisp, the instant it was activated, all the blood in his body suddenly boiled. A terrifying force flooded through his limbs and bones, forcibly multiplying his strength severalfold!

"Tyrant Blade Slash!"

Ding Hao swung his blade, unleashing the Tyrant Blade Slash at the Northern Barbarian deputy general with overwhelming ferocity!

A clear look of disdain rose on the deputy general's face!

In his eyes, Ding Hao's attack was nothing more than the final struggle of a dying man. The massive spear in his hand continued smashing down as before!

But with another metallic explosion, the massive spear in the deputy general's hand was snapped in two by an overbearing force, and a surging impact crashed into him!

The Northern Barbarian deputy general let out a horrified scream. Before his terrified eyes, he was cleaved apart on the spot by that Tyrant Blade Slash!

As for the Northern Barbarian soldiers in every direction, they were stunned by the bloody scene. For a time, not a single one dared charge forward again!

After all, that was a ninth-rank martial artist, a deputy general of the Northern Barbarian Army—enough to be called a top-tier fierce warrior among the barbarian forces. Yet in a head-on clash, he had been cut down by Ding Hao in a single strike!

One could only imagine the tremendous shock it dealt to the surrounding barbarian soldiers!

But soon, the barbarian soldiers noticed that Ding Hao was panting heavily!

It turned out—

Although the Primordial Barbarian Bloodline could grant him the blessing of primordial barbarian strength—

Because he possessed only a single wisp, that primordial barbarian strength lasted for only an instant. Once used, his condition would decline even further!

"This guy can't hold on anymore!"

"Go, go, go! Kill him!"

"This man is ferocious, no weaker than a ninth-rank martial artist! Kill him, and we'll earn high-grade military merit!"

In an instant, the expressions of the Northern Barbarian soldiers in every direction changed.

Their fear and dread of Ding Hao turned entirely into greed and burning desire!

After all, the Northern Barbarians also placed enormous importance on military merit. What common soldier did not dream of becoming a general? Especially now that Ding Hao was plainly at the end of his tether—whoever killed him would earn a great merit!

"Kill!!"

In the end—

No one knew which barbarian soldier gave the battle cry, but the barbarians in every direction immediately roared and surged forward once more like a tide!

Seeing this, even Ding Hao, who possessed the talent of Unyielding Resilience

Felt a measure of despair in his heart!

No wonder, in both his past life and this one, people said that those who charged into enemy formations did so with the resolve to die, with no hope of living. Hardly anyone survived long enough to claim such military merit!

Just as Ding Hao was about to be swallowed by the tide of barbarian soldiers—

The battlefield suddenly descended into chaos, filled with the neighing of countless warhorses and cries of slaughter.

"Kill!"

"Save Army Lord Luo!"

"This is bad! Great Zhou's Army Breaker has arrived—Army Breaker is here!!"
