Northern Barbarian Royal Family!

With the somber beat of war drums and the blare of horns, Luo Shenhuang led the main force of over a hundred thousand Divine Phoenix Army soldiers into battle against the Northern Barbarian army once more!

Although the Death Row Camp hadn't been deployed, Mo Hao could imagine that this battle would be a fierce, earth-shattering clash, resulting in rivers of blood!

As expected, after half a day of fighting, the Northern Barbarians sounded the retreat. Mo Hao, following the Death Row Camp, stepped onto the battlefield to begin collecting the bodies!

At a glance, nearly ten thousand corpses littered the battlefield – one-third belonging to the Divine Phoenix Army and two-thirds to the Northern Barbarian army!

And this was after the Divine Phoenix Army, being the elite force of the Great Zhou Dynasty, had engaged. If it were any other army, the casualties would have been even higher!

"Sigh!"

"The battlefield is cruel. No matter which side's soldiers fall, they become worthless, and no one will remember them!"

"Except—me!!"

Mo Hao sighed at the battlefield's cruelty, then excitedly began to frantically collect the dense clusters of light orbs from the corpses!

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for collecting 5 points of Blood Essence!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for collecting 8 points of Blood Essence!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for collecting 10 points of Blood Essence!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for collecting 3 points of Spirit!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for collecting 5 points of Comprehension!]

[...]

As the prompts sounded in his ears, his various attribute values rapidly increased.

After sweeping the entire battlefield, he had accumulated over a thousand points of Blood Essence alone.

The only pity was.

As his realm grew higher, the Blood Essence required for advancement also increased. To reach Ninth-Rank, he needed at least eight thousand points of Blood Essence.

Even with the thousand-plus points he'd gained, he was still over six thousand points short!

"I'll just keep collecting slowly!"

"This war will go on for a while yet!"

Finally, Mo Hao returned to the Death Row Camp, his mindset completely at ease.

In his view.

This war was crucial, concerning the Great Zhou Empress's throne and the very existence of the Northern Barbarian tribes!

If the Divine Phoenix Army were defeated, the Great Zhou Empress Xia Weiyang's throne would surely become unstable!

If the Northern Barbarian army were annihilated, the Northern Barbarian tribes would undoubtedly be swept away by the Great Zhou!

Neither side would back down, and the war would continue until one side was defeated!

As expected.

The next day.

Luo Shenhuang once again beat the drums and blew the horns, leading her army to fight the Northern Barbarians!

Both sides fought for another half a day, leaving tens of thousands more corpses on the battlefield.

As the slightly victorious side, the Divine Phoenix Army still entered the field first to clean up.

For this.

Mo Hao was naturally delighted. After all, if the Northern Barbarian army had cleaned the battlefield first, he wouldn't have been able to collect so many barbarian soldier corpses.

Soon.

After finishing the second battlefield sweep, another thousand-plus points of Blood Essence were added to his account!

Following this, Luo Shenhuang engaged in several more battles with the Northern Barbarians, and Mo Hao, along with the Death Row Camp, went up to clean the battlefield several times!

In total, he had accumulated over eight thousand points of Blood Essence, while his Spirit and Comprehension values had each increased by two to three hundred points!

That night, in the Death Row Camp.

After returning from cleaning the battlefield, Mo Hao, unable to wait any longer, merged all the accumulated attribute values!

As all the accumulated attributes merged, a surging, majestic wave of Blood Essence violently impacted and raged within his body, causing his cultivation to skyrocket!

In addition, his Spirit and Comprehension attributes also saw a significant increase!

Finally.

When Mo Hao opened his character panel, he was overjoyed!

Ninth-Rank Martial Artist!

This realm was already the ceiling below the True Martial Realm!

In the army, it would at least earn him a Centurion position, or even a Vice-General!

It was a pity that as long as his identity as a death row inmate was not removed, no matter how strong his cultivation and strength were, he could not be promoted above his station!

This point was quite similar to his previous life.

People with criminal records couldn't take the imperial examinations or become officials. The only difference was that Hao's crime was entirely fabricated by the Empress!

And besides the realm attributes, there was a subtle yet significant change on the panel!

The Primordial Barbarian Bloodline had changed from one strand to three strands!

These two extra strands were picked up by Hao from the corpses of two Northern Barbarian generals who died on the battlefield, a pleasant surprise!

Since Hao had previously picked up one or two corpses of other Northern Barbarian generals but hadn't found the Primordial Barbarian Bloodline, he discreetly inquired with Hao Yishan this time.

Only then did he discover the commonality: these two Northern Barbarian generals were named Man Poshan and Man Pohai, and like the former Man Poqi, they both belonged to the bloodline of the Northern Barbarian Royal Family's Man Po clan!

"It seems only the Northern Barbarian Royal Family possesses this Primordial Barbarian Bloodline!"

"However, it's too diluted in these generals, making it useless!"

"Only by dropping out and being fused by me can it display its significant divine power!"

"In the future, if I want more Primordial Barbarian Bloodline, I can only pick up the corpses of people from the Northern Barbarian Royal Court!"

At the first opportunity, Hao formulated his priority targets in his mind!

After all, the Primordial Barbarian Bloodline greatly enhanced him, and it could even be said to be his greatest trump card so far!

Especially now that it had changed from one strand to three, not only was the Primordial Barbarian Strength it provided stronger, but even its side effects were greatly reduced!

If three strands were like this, what about ten strands? Or even a complete strand? How powerful would it be if he found the complete Primordial Barbarian Bloodline?

As for people with the Northern Barbarian Royal Court bloodline, they were also easy to identify!

They all took Man Po as their surname, such as the Northern Barbarian Commander-in-Chief—Man Potian!

Hao had reason to believe that as the Northern Barbarian Commander-in-Chief, the Primordial Barbarian Bloodline within him would definitely be much more abundant than that of ordinary generals!

However, how to turn Man Potian into a cold corpse and then have him pick up the corpse was clearly a super difficult problem!

Just as Hao thought that such a thing was unlikely to happen!

Hao Yishan took the initiative to find him. Upon meeting, he was shocked by Hao's realm, "My heavens, when did you become a Ninth-Rank Martial Artist? This is too exaggerated!"

One must know.

Half a month ago, when he first met Hao, Hao was only a Fourth-Rank Martial Artist. In less than half a month, he had advanced five ranks!

Even the legendary Celestial Beings probably couldn't do this!

Hao shrugged and tried to explain, "Uh, if I say I was originally a master, but I was severely injured and crippled before, and I'm gradually recovering now, would you believe me?"

"I believe you!"

He thought Hao Yishan wouldn't believe him.

To his surprise, the other party nodded heavily, seemingly convinced.

"It's good that you believe me!"

Hao breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, he couldn't think of any other explanation besides this reason. If he said he had an cheat, no one would understand what he meant.

However, to prevent Hao Yishan from prying further, he quickly changed the subject.

"General Hao, it's late at night, what brings you to find me?"

Hao Yishan's expression turned serious.

Finally, he said something that almost made Hao jump up!!
