Overlord Spear Technique Minor Accomplishment

Thousands of cavalry charged, their momentum immense, and were quickly discovered by the Xiongnu army.

"Enemy, Commander, there's an enemy."

"My eyes aren't blind." Helan Guanshan watched the Anning Iron Cavalry charging towards them, a smile playing on his lips.

"Heh, let me see who this esteemed person is, forcing me, a mere commander, to escort supplies."

Helan Guanshan was a commander in the Houtian mid-stage realm, with two thousand men under his command, equivalent to a Great Wei Colonel.

"Warriors, follow me and charge to kill!" Helan Guanshan drew his saber and shouted loudly.

"Charge!!"

Five hundred Xiongnu cavalry followed Helan Guanshan, charging towards the approaching enemy.

Sheng Huai'an's gaze was sharp, wielding an iron spear weighing over a hundred pounds. His blood churned, his true essence circulated, and all his strength converged on the iron spear.

His target was the leader of the Xiongnu army.

Helan Guanshan's target was also Sheng Huai'an.

As the two armies clashed, the cavalry charged, their magnificent and imposing aura pressing down like a mountain collapsing or a tsunami, enough to scare the faint-hearted to death.

"Rumble!"

The sound of hooves echoed like thunder drums across the grassland, even scaring the eagles in the sky to fly far away.

"Kill!"

Sheng Huai'an roared, and the long spear in his hand struck out like a pillar supporting the sky, the air itself exploding with a sonic boom.

Helan Guanshan also swung his saber, slashing forward with unparalleled ferocity.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, Helan Guanshan was shattered into pieces, along with his horse, by a single spear strike, blood splattering everywhere.

The scene Helan Guanshan had imagined, of him slicing the opponent's spear and taking the enemy general's head, did not materialize. Instead, he was smashed into a pulp by a single spear thrust.

The Xiongnu cavalry behind him were terrified when they saw their commander being split into a bloody mess, along with his horse, by the enemy general's spear.

Even Guo Xiaoping and Hu Bing, who were following Sheng Huai'an, were filled with shock.

That Xiongnu general was a Houtian realm Martial Practitioner, yet he was killed by Sheng Huai'an's spear.

What terrifying strength and power must that possess?!

It was a wise decision that they had firmly refused Sheng Huai'an's invitation to spar that morning.

"Kill!"

Sheng Huai'an led the charge, plunging into the Xiongnu cavalry formation. Wherever his spear passed, there were no complete corpses left.

Seeing Sheng Huai'an kill the Xiongnu general with a spear and charge into the Xiongnu cavalry, the other soldiers were filled with burning passion and high fighting spirit as they charged forward.

Warhorses neighed, sabers and spears clashed, and people fell continuously.

The cavalry charged, swift as the wind.

The Xiongnu cavalry, seeing their commander killed, lost all their momentum. With a single charge from the imposing Anning Iron Cavalry, they were all slaughtered.

On the ground, only corpses and ownerless horses remained.

It was important to note that besides Sheng Huai'an, their unit of iron cavalry also had Guo Xiaoping and Hu Bing, two Houtian realm Martial Practitioners. Facing the five hundred Xiongnu cavalry who had lost their leader, it was nothing short of a massacre.

The army's charge did not stop; it pressed forward relentlessly, heading towards the remaining Xiongnu forces.

"Defeated, the army is defeated!"

"This Wei iron cavalry is so strong..."

"The cavalry are all dead, run!"

Seeing the five hundred cavalry fall, the herders in the ranks were the first to buckle under the terrifying pressure of the iron cavalry's charge. They dropped their weapons and fled.

The remaining five hundred infantry soldiers, facing the fierce and imposing Anning Iron Cavalry, had no will to fight.

The iron cavalry charged past, leaving only corpses on the ground. Soon, this Xiongnu supply transport army was completely annihilated, and even the fleeing herders did not escape.

The iron cavalry halted their charge, their warhorses neighing. The warhorse beneath Sheng Huai'an reared its front legs high, as if celebrating victory.

Sheng Huai'an's battle robe fluttered, and the iron spear in his hand dripped blood.

After annihilating this Xiongnu supply transport army, Sheng Huai'an immediately ordered the battlefield to be cleared.

"Quickly clear the battlefield. Take what you can, and burn what you cannot."

"Treat the wounded soldiers, and take the bodies of our fallen comrades."

After taking down this Xiongnu supply transport army, the troops also suffered some casualties, though thankfully not significant, with only a dozen or so killed or injured.

With the strongest Xiongnu cavalry commander, Helan Guanshan, killed by Sheng Huai'an, the remaining Xiongnu cavalry inflicted much less damage on the Anning Iron Cavalry.

The soldiers quickly cleared the battlefield, burned the supplies they couldn't carry, and left swiftly.

By now, each soldier in this Anning Iron Cavalry unit had two warhorses, allowing them to travel at a rapid pace even during their charge.

Having destroyed this Xiongnu supply transport army, Sheng Huai'an continued to lead his cavalry in search of their next target.

In just one day, Sheng Huai'an led his cavalry and swept through over a dozen Xiongnu armies transporting supplies and grain, killing more than ten thousand Xiongnu and burning countless supplies.

When the Xiongnu Cavalry found the annihilated transport army, they saw piles of corpses and supplies burned to ashes.

"Damn it, damn it! Whoever you are, I will tear you to shreds!" Helan Guanshan roared.

"Chase them! Find these people at all costs!" Helan Guanshan shouted, spurring his horse in the direction Sheng Huai'an and his men had departed.

Behind him, two thousand elite Xiongnu cavalry, their armor clanking, galloped in pursuit.

Seeing their kin slaughtered, the other Xiongnu soldiers were also enraged. They had always been the ones to invade others; when had anyone dared to penetrate their grasslands and attack their people?

This was a provocation against their Xiongnu warriors!

As Xiongnu warriors, the eagles of these grasslands, they could not tolerate this.

As night fell, Sheng Huai'an led his troops to a halt to rest and have dinner.

They ate the captured food openly; Martial Practitioners had enormous appetites.

Sheng Huai'an alone ate a whole ox and felt only barely full.

The meat he consumed was converted into vital energy and stored within his body.

Today, combined with yesterday, their gains were exceptionally rich.

Not to mention anything else, they had acquired quite a few pills.

There were three Fourth-grade Breakthrough Pills!

Countless other pills for healing and cultivation were also obtained.

This was a considerable fortune; everyone who returned with the expedition would receive a good amount of silver.

It was a pity that there was no one at the Martial Master Great Perfection realm in their ranks, otherwise Sheng Huai'an wouldn't have kept the three Fourth-grade Breakthrough Pills.

Only by increasing one's strength was paramount; this was Sheng Huai'an's philosophy.

Although they had successfully attacked over a dozen Xiongnu supply armies today, more than thirty of the cavalrymen he had brought with him were permanently lost on these grasslands.

At night, Sheng Huai'an gazed at the stars in the sky, but he couldn't find any familiar constellations.

In the day's battles, he had killed seven Xiongnu Houtian Martial Practitioners and hundreds of ordinary soldiers, gaining more Slaughter Value than ever before.

Name: Sheng Huai'an

Race: Human

Realm: Houtian Early Stage (+)

Cultivation Techniques: [Great Sun Heart Sutra (Novice)] [Ferocious Ox Strength (Minor Accomplishment)] (+) [Blood Fiend Saber Technique (Mastered)] (Deduction) [Overlord Spear Technique (Novice)] (+)

Strength: 15,000 jin

Talent: Silver Archer (+)

Slaughter Value: 1132

Seeing his Slaughter Value exceed one thousand, Sheng Huai'an felt a little excited.

Looking at the cultivation realm that could be improved, Sheng Huai'an didn't immediately upgrade.

He had just broken through; if he leveled up again so soon, he'd attract attention and be seen as a monster.

The deduction option appearing after Blood Fiend Saber Technique surprised Sheng Huai'an; was this a new function of his golden finger?

The Great Sun Heart Sutra didn't have a plus sign, meaning it couldn't be upgraded. This made him feel a bit frustrated. The first upgrade cost two hundred points, and with over a thousand Slaughter Value, no plus sign had appeared. How much would it cost?

However, the Overlord Spear Technique did have a plus sign.

Sheng Huai'an first chose to upgrade the Overlord Spear Technique. For cavalry charges and mounted combat, using a spear to kill enemies was faster.

He directly added points to upgrade the Overlord Spear Technique.

Countless cultivation insights and experiences related to the Overlord Spear Technique flooded his mind, like a slideshow. He felt as if he had practiced the Overlord Spear Technique for ten to twenty years, bringing it to Minor Accomplishment.

Now, holding a spear, Sheng Huai'an felt incredibly familiar with it, as if he had practiced spearplay for over a decade. He couldn't help but raise his spear and begin practicing.

The Overlord Spear Technique was overbearing and fierce, each move powerful and valiant.

Guo Xiaoping and Hu Bing, not far away, watched Sheng Huai'an practice the Overlord Spear Technique, their hearts filled with trepidation.

This spear technique was too sharp and domineering. No wonder that Xiongnu Houtian Martial Practitioner had been split into a bloody pulp, along with his warhorse, by a single spear strike today.

"What a powerful spear technique."

"This is General Yang Ye's Overlord Spear Technique! How did he learn it?"

"What do you think? General Yang Ye must have taught him."

"But this level of proficiency... it looks like he's been practicing for over ten years."

"This guy, could he have started practicing in the womb?"

Guo Xiaoping and Hu Bing muttered to each other in hushed tones.

Sheng Huai'an practiced the Overlord Spear Technique, and now that it had reached minor accomplishment, his combat power had increased significantly.

With his strength improved, Sheng Huai'an was overjoyed.

But when he looked at his Slaughter Value, only six hundred and thirty-two points remained.

Seeing that the Overlord Spear Technique's advancement to minor accomplishment had consumed five hundred Slaughter Value points, Sheng Huai'an became uneasy.

Another big consumer of resources. How much Slaughter Value will it take to reach great accomplishment?!

Looking at the remaining six hundred and thirty-two Slaughter Value points, Sheng Huai'an suppressed the urge to deduce the Blood Fiend Saber Technique.

He had to keep a certain amount of Slaughter Value on hand for emergencies.
