Martial Dao True Meaning!

And the next moment, what made Man Potian even more anxious was that this group of Divine Phoenix Army cavalry was clearly coming for him and the military banner!

One must know that for an army, there are two pillars of morale!

One is the commander, and the other is the military banner!

If either of these two falls, the army's morale will instantly collapse by half, and if both are lost, the battle cannot be fought.

The army will become a scattered mess, destined to be defeated like a mountain collapsing!

"Flag Protection Camp!"

"Quick, protect the military banner!!"

At this moment, Man Potian roared to the sky, his anxiety evident.

However, before he could roar, a large number of barbarian soldiers had already surged out from around him.

It could be seen that these barbarian soldiers were different from the ordinary barbarian soldiers who were in a hurry and didn't even have time to put on their armor or grab their weapons. Each of them was fully armored, carrying sabers and arrows, and was extremely brave and calm!

And these barbarian soldiers were exactly what Man Potian called – the Flag Protection Camp!

As the name suggests, this was a camp of soldiers specifically tasked with protecting the military banner.

Due to the importance of the military banner, these soldiers would not even take off their armor when sleeping, all in order to protect the military banner at any time.

"Release the arrows!"

As soon as the Flag Protection Camp appeared, they nocked and drew their bows in unison, unleashing a volley of arrows at the rapidly approaching Divine Phoenix Army cavalry.

As the arrow rain descended, even though the Divine Phoenix Army cavalry were all armored, many still took arrows and fell from their horses with screams.

Even Ding Hao was not spared and was hit by numerous arrows.

Fortunately, he possessed the Heavenly Tyrant Body, coupled with the golden silk soft armor and the outer armor, these arrows posed no threat to him!

"Don't stop, keep charging!"

At this moment.

Luo Shenhuang shouted, knowing that they could not show any fear at this time, otherwise, once they stopped, they would be shot to death wave after wave by the arrow rain!

Thus, the Divine Phoenix Army cavalry endured two or three more volleys of arrows, suffering hundreds of casualties, before finally breaking through to the front of the Flag Protection Camp!

Although the Flag Protection Camp immediately took out heavy shields to resist the charge, they were still thrown into disarray by the onslaught of a large number of cavalry.

Pfft, pfft!

It could be seen that Luo Shenhuang, Ding Yishan, and the other commanding generals were constantly slashing their sabers while charging, killing the surrounding Flag Protection Camp soldiers!

Especially Ding Hao, who charged even more fiercely than Ding Yishan and the other True Martial generals, had already drawn his Mysterious Iron Saber and was slaughtering his way through the Flag Protection Camp!

While killing, he charged towards the towering Northern Barbarian Great Banner!

"Hmph!"

At the same time, not far away, another person followed closely behind Ding Hao, also charging towards the Northern Barbarian's military banner at extreme speed.

And this person was none other than – Zhang Dalong!!

In fact, for Zhang Dalong, the Divine Phoenix Army's foremost fierce general, capturing the banner was already a matter of little consequence!

After all, his status in the Divine Phoenix Army was second only to Luo Shenhuang. Even if he successfully captured the banner, he would not be promoted to commander!

At most, he would receive some common items like gold and cloth!

But he knew that Ding Hao, a death row prisoner, desperately needed the military merit from capturing the banner, and if Ding Hao wanted it, Zhang Dalong would snatch it away!

Afterward.

Even Luo Shenhuang would not be able to say anything and would have to praise Zhang Dalong for being the bravest in the army!

"What?"

"Zhang Dalong!!"

A moment later, Ding Hao clearly noticed Zhang Dalong, who was trying to snatch the military merit of capturing the banner from him. His eyes immediately turned sharp.

But he couldn't say anything more. After all, snatching merit was a matter of skill, and if he could compete for it, Zhang Dalong could naturally snatch it too!

What made him feel pressured was that with Zhang Dalong's strength as the foremost fierce general, he might indeed capture the banner before him!

"Kill!"

Without hesitation, Ding Hao went all out, charging with all his might!

His Mysterious Iron Saber danced wildly as he unleashed the "Slaying Man" stance from the Three Talents Saber Technique!

One saber strike killed one person, each saber aimed at taking a life, breaking through the blockade of the Flag Protection Camp soldiers at extreme speed and approaching the Northern Barbarian's military banner!

However, Zhang Dalong, not far away, was clearly not to be outdone!

He also rode his horse, wielding his saber, trampling over the corpses of many barbarian soldiers as he approached the Northern Barbarian's military banner, even faster than Ding Hao by a notch!

"Kill!"

"Stop them!"

However, just as both of them were determined to be the first to capture the banner...

A group of tall, powerfully built Northern Barbarian generals charged forward from their side, and as generals, they were naturally at least in the True Martial Realm!

Two True Martial generals immediately moved to intercept and kill Zhang Dalong.

It was clear they knew Zhang Dalong, the Divine Phoenix Army's fiercest general, was not to be trifled with!

"Damn it!"

Zhang Dalong cursed loudly, and his charging figure was forcibly stopped by the two Northern Barbarian generals!

However, Ding Hao did not laugh heartily at this scene!

Because at this moment, a Northern Barbarian general was also charging towards him!

Although the aura emanating from this barbarian general was clearly not as strong as the two who intercepted Zhang Dalong, he was also in the True Martial Realm!

Even if it was just the lowest layer of True Martial First Layer!

But one must understand, the True Martial Realm is different from the Martial Artist Realm!

What is True Martial?

This realm no longer solely pursues Vitality and physical strength; it requires comprehending the Martial Dao True Meaning. With the enhancement of this Martial Dao True Meaning, even a casual saber strike can possess immense power of tens of thousands of jin!

Since the opponent had reached the True Martial Realm, it was evident they had comprehended the Martial Dao True Meaning. Such a powerful individual could not be underestimated and required full effort!

"Hmph!"

"Die, you lowly, weak Great Zhou monkey!"

As expected, the Northern Barbarian general in True Martial First Layer charged in front of Ding Hao and roared, raising a great spear and smashing it down at Ding Hao!

With this smash, a mysterious artistic conception clearly coiled around it!

Under this artistic conception, the seemingly ordinary spear instantly surged with thousands of jin of immense power. The wind whistled, as if a single strike could shatter a massive boulder into dust!

Let alone flesh and blood, once struck, it would turn into a bloody pulp!

"Heavenly Tyrant Body!"

"Innate Barbarian Strength!"

"Man-Slaying Style!!"

Seeing this.

Ding Hao did not dare to be careless in the slightest. In an instant, he unleashed his full saber might!

Apart from not utilizing the Primordial Barbarian Bloodline for enhancement, he had fully mobilized all his possessed strength to its absolute peak!

Clang!!

Suddenly, the saber and spear clashed repeatedly in mid-air, emitting a metallic explosion loud enough to shatter eardrums!

"Ah! You..."

Abruptly, the Northern Barbarian general, who was grinning ferociously, let out a terrified scream!

He had originally thought that his spear strike, enhanced by the Martial Dao True Meaning, was enough to smash to death the Great Zhou person who was only at the ninth-grade realm. To his surprise, he found that it was nothing of the sort!

A terrifying, immense force emanated from the blade of the saber, a force he couldn't resist. His Martial Dao True Meaning was even shattered by it!

With a bang, the great spear broke, and the saber's edge, under the general's incomparably fearful and horrified gaze, cleaved directly down from in front of his eyes!!

Pfft!

Accompanied by a dull thud, the Northern Barbarian general, along with the warhorse beneath him, was split in two by Ding Hao's saber strike. Blood splattered everywhere!

"Huh?"

The remaining force caused Ding Hao to stagger on his horse!

His face was filled with bewilderment!

Wait a minute!

Was a barbarian general in True Martial First Layer this weak?

Or was his current combat strength—too formidable?
