Bang! Pfft...!

In the blink of an eye, a bullet struck Tuoba Ziying at an invisible speed, knocking him heavily to the ground.

" Cannon Squad! Spear Squad! Open fire!"

At Chen Mu's command, a barrage of artillery fire and gunfire erupted, hurtling towards the Flame Blessing Tribe.

"Kill them!!"

Chen Hongjie and Chen Zihu led two cavalry units and charged towards them.

After Chen Mu's Divine Soul broke through to the Third Layer of the Solid Realm, he was able to sense a range of three to four kilometers around him. He had already discovered that a tribe from the Flame Blessing Tribe was encircling him.

So he turned the tables on Tuoba Ziying, who wanted to stall for time, and they deliberately distracted Tuoba Ziying, thus launching a surprise attack.

However, with the two armies now locked in the Flame Blessing Tribe's army reacted quickly. Although the attacks from the Spear Squad and Cannon Squad were sudden, they did not inflict significant casualties on them.

During their first attack on Chen Village, the Chen Village Spear Squad and Artillery Squad killed many of their men, so they now have a better strategy and won't be as flustered as they were the first time.

"Everyone, keep at least two meters apart, and use a serpentine movement to rush forward, just like we've practiced before."

The squad leader in the Tuoba army shouted loudly to remind his men.

Soon, Chen Village's cavalry began close combat with the soldiers of the Flame Blessing Tribe, while the Spear Squad remained in place to continue providing long-range support with their Rune Gun.

The hand cannons of the Cannon Squad were no longer suitable for use under these circumstances, so they all carried their hand cannons on their backs and picked up their round shields to provide close protection for the Spear Squad.

Tuoba Ziying was not dead. He got up from the ground, suffering only minor injuries.

"Come quickly, we're at war!"

After sending the message to Mo Junnian, he took out a huge longbow from his storage ring and fired a series of sharp arrows to support the Tuoba army.

He felt a lingering fear in his heart. Fortunately, when Chen Mu caused a ruckus in the Flame Blessing Tribe, he had used the Rune Gun to force back the Tuoba Ancestor, which gave him time to prepare. Otherwise, he would have been in real danger this time.

Clang! Boom!

Bang...!

On the battlefield, shouts of battle, the clash of weapons, and gunfire mingled together, and the war gradually intensified.

Although Chen Village had a numerical advantage, the quality of its members was far inferior to that of the Yanzhu army. The Flame Blessing Tribe had more than a dozen people who had reached the True Spirit Realm, while Chen Village only had four or five.

"Activate all those with the Five Elements Pattern patterns! Take them down!"

Chen Hongjie knew that there was still one unit of the Flame Blessing Tribe that had not yet shown up, and he felt that they could not delay any longer.

With his command, the strength of the high-level cultivators in Chen Village immediately surged, making them capable of contending with the people of the Flame Blessing Tribe.

Bang! Bang bang!

Chen Mu fired wildly, and most of the cultivators present could not withstand a single shot from Chen Mu. In just a dozen breaths, he killed more than a dozen experts from the Flame Blessing Tribe.

The strength of Chen Village's army had increased so much in just half a month, which was something Tuoba Ziying could never have imagined. The balance of power on the battlefield was gradually tilting towards Chen Village.

"That bastard Yue Siqing, why hasn't he made a move yet? When I get back to the tribe, I'll make sure our ancestor settles the score with him!"

Tuoba Ziying cursed inwardly and fired several arrows at Chen Mu, but Chen Mu dodged them all.

He was very wary of Chen Mu's Rune Gun, so he gathered five or six experts in the mid-to-late stage of the True Spirit Realm to surround Chen Mu, but to no avail.

Every time he exhausted all his efforts to surround Chen Mu, Chen Mu always managed to escape easily at the last moment. Chen Mu was also able to launch a clever counterattack. After more than a dozen rounds of encirclement, they not only failed to harm Chen Mu, but also lost two people.

Just then, the Mo Lineage's army finally arrived and charged towards the two Rune Artifacts squads stationed in the rear.

Fortunately, during this time, a small portion of the Tuoba army had been killed, which eased the pressure on the front lines considerably. Chen Zihu immediately led over a hundred Chen family soldiers back to face the Mo Lineage Army.

"Cavalleria Third Squadron, use Ice Condensation Talisman!"

Now that Chen Mu has returned, there will naturally be plenty of talismans. However, the cost of spirit talismans is too high. The Earth Spirit Talisman currently being issued to the army are all made by automated printers, and their power is not as strong as the ones Chen Mu himself uses.

Hundreds of talismans were thrown out at the same time, instantly turning the area within a hundred meters of the Mo Lineage Army into a frozen wasteland, and the Mo Lineage Army ' movements became much stiffer.

"Kill!"

The use of the Ice Condensation Talisman this time was very clever, and it was clear that the Chen Village army had practiced it deliberately. They took advantage of the momentum of their charge to break into the Mo Lineage Army and killed more than a dozen of them in one fell swoop.

The battlefield gradually descended into chaos, with the two Rune Artifacts squads cooperating seamlessly, one defending and the other attacking. Meanwhile, the cavalry, led by Chen Hongjie and Chen Zihu, charged back and forth, achieving remarkable results.

Although the Chen Village villagers were individually weaker than their opponents, their troops coordinated well, and they also had unexpected methods such as talismans, Five Elements Pattern, and Rune Artifacts.

The Flame Blessing Tribe's army was wary and dared not advance rashly, resulting in a stalemate between the two sides.

However, Chen Mu became more and more courageous and excited as the battle progressed.

With the help of the Eye of the Seer, he was able to experiment with his moves without restraint. In addition, with Chen Haoran's insights into the Immovable King in his mind, his application of the Acala Heart Sutra became more and more skillful.

"All laws return to one, the Vajra rages, break!"

He formed a Buddhist mudra with his hands, his appearance solemn and dignified, with the swastika symbol faintly swirling around his body, as he repeatedly unleashed several palm strikes in all directions.

boom...!

With each palm strike, a swastika-shaped Buddhist seal flew out, sweeping away everything in its path with unparalleled dominance. The three experts who had surrounded him were all repelled by him.

One person, who was slightly weaker, was beaten so badly that he coughed up blood and flew backward.

Just now, relying on his enlightenment of the Acala Heart Sutra, Chen Mu's Spiritual Power cultivation broke through from the Early Stage of the True Spirit Realm to the middle stage. In addition, the Five Elements Pattern on his body also provided an auxiliary boost to his Spiritual Power, which is why his move was so powerful.

" Tuoba Ziying, prepare to die!"

Chen Mu activated his Instant Movement Talisman and instantly appeared beside Tuoba Ziying, throwing a punch at him.

" Star-Array Sword, Cosmic Cycle Sword Shield "

As a core member of the Tuoba Lineage, Tuoba Ziying enjoyed the best resources of the Tuoba Lineage, so his cultivation level was naturally not weak, reaching the peak of the Middle Stage of the True Spirit Realm.

His Cosmic Cycle Sword Shield was extremely resilient; Chen Mu's punch only forced him back a step.

"Protect the eldest son!"

Chen Mu's actions triggered a chain reaction. Tuoba Ziying held a very high position in the Tuoba Lineage, and immediately more than a dozen powerful figures rushed over to help Tuoba Ziying.

After such a long battle, Chen Mu's Spiritual Power was actually depleted by more than half. He coldly looked at the people blocking his way from all sides and weighed his options.

Do you need that?
