After the Five Elements Army stormed into the residential area, they specifically targeted and killed those with profound cultivation, and incidentally set fire to the surrounding buildings, causing chaos.
Not long after, cries of agony and screams filled the residential area as many high-ranking Jianglan Tribe perished under the swords of the Five Elements Army.
"Stop!!"
When Chen Rufeng broke into the third mansion, dozens of experts gathered together, forming a formidable force, and blocked his way.
The leader, dressed in a brocade robe, stood tall and exuded a powerful aura of authority.
"Haha! It's Jiang Kechang!"
Chen Rufeng had seen Jiang Kechang's portrait and immediately recognized that the leader of this group was Jiang Kechang.
He was overjoyed and was about to launch an attack on Jiang Kechang when he keenly sensed the deafening sound of marching troops coming from afar.
"All troops assemble!"
Without hesitation, he used a communication talisman to issue orders to his men, then led them back and rushed in the direction from which the sound came.
Boom boom boom...!
When Chen Rufeng and his men arrived on the main road, they immediately saw a torrent of steel rushing towards them.
"It's Jianglan Army!"
A Five Elements Guards led the group to meet Chen Rufeng, and exclaimed in surprise.
This Jianglan Army numbered approximately eight hundred men. Their arrival was quite sudden, and the Shadow Guards had no information about this army. It seems that this was a backup plan laid by the Jianglan Tribe.
" The Five Elements Army, form a defensive formation."
Chen Rufeng was not afraid; on the contrary, he was eager to try.
A month ago, the Five Elements Army's first battle was against the Blazing Flame Army. The result was that the Five Elements Army was only able to fight to a standstill due to their numerical advantage.
After a month of actual combat, the strength of all members of the Five Elements Army has improved significantly. Those who could not withstand the pressure were eliminated, and those who remained were all brave and fierce.
The Five Elements Army is now more than twice as strong as it was a month ago.
He had always been dissatisfied with the outcome of the Five Elements Army's first battle, and now was a great opportunity—a chance to avenge their defeat.
At this time, seven teams of the Five Elements Army had already joined up with Chen Rufeng, while the other two teams were too far away to join them in time.
"Fine, eight hundred against eight hundred, don't say I'm bullying you!"
Chen Rufeng's expression turned cold as he formed a hand seal and began to condense the Five Elements Ring.
In this world, power, if guided by the right medium, can often achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Using different hand gestures is a very effective way to guide someone.
The Five Elements Battle Formation and Five Elements Body Tempering Art created by Chen Mu are derived from the principles of the Five Elements. There are many hand gestures that are beneficial for guiding the Spiritual Power of heaven and earth. Therefore, all those who cultivate Chen Mu's lineage tend to use hand seals to enhance the power of their moves during battle.
As Chen Rufeng formed his hand seals, a huge Five Elements Ring pattern floated above the Five Elements Army.
"Earth element, Mountain Shield!"
The members of the Five Elements Army who are skilled in Earth stood at the forefront of the battlefield. The members of the other four elements behind them formed a cycle of their Spiritual Power in a mutually reinforcing order, and finally all of it converged on the Earth element member.
A huge, phantom mountain appeared ahead, firmly blocking Jianglan Army.
" Jianglan Destruction Strike, kill!"
Jianglan Army's soldiers, having witnessed the miserable state of the local residents along the way, were already filled with rage. Now, facing the Five Elements Army, they immediately unleashed their most powerful combined attack technique.
As Jianglan Army advanced, they were like a raging torrent, exuding an aura of destruction, crashing headlong into the illusory mountain peak.
boom!!!
With a deafening roar, the illusory mountain peak remained motionless, but the ocean waves shattered.
Jianglan Army's men were thrown into disarray as if they had run into an iron wall. Chen Rufeng seized the opportunity and launched an attack on the Jianglan Army!
" Five Elements Transformation, Water Dragon Strangulation!"
The members of the Five Elements Army immediately transformed into countless streams, infiltrating Jianglan Army like a ferocious swarm of sharks, tearing at the Jianglan Army.
" Jiang Lan's troops, retreat and reorganize your ranks!"
Jianglan Army remained calm under pressure and issued the most effective orders.
Unfortunately, the Five Elements Army is no longer the novice warriors they once were on the battlefield. Now, they are like a persistent, entangled foe, relentlessly clinging to the Jianglan Army.
Ta-da!
Jianglan Army's expression grew increasingly grim. The Five Elements Army was gradually expanding its advantage, and Jianglan Army was like someone stuck in a quagmire, with casualties constantly increasing.
"Is this the difference between a battle formation and a pseudo-battle formation?"
Having endured the ravages of war, the Five Elements Army finally revealed the fangs of a battle-ready legion.
"Go help them!"
Jiang Kechang was initially very confident, believing that with equal forces, Jianglan Army would surely defeat the Five Elements Army.
But reality slapped him in the face, leaving him no choice but to lead dozens of experts from the Jianglan Tribe to rush up and aid the Jianglan Army.
Boom! Clang clang clang!
" Jiang Lan belongs to me; she will travel through the past with me."
Jianglan Army was not incompetent. With the addition of a group of experts led by Jiang Kechang, he was able to catch his breath and immediately organized a portion of his forces to launch an attack on the Five Elements Army.
The sounds of battle cries, hoofbeats, screams, and the clanging of metal mingled together, blood splattered everywhere, and the entire battlefield was extremely brutal.
"This humble Han He that he has come to join us!"
"This humble general, Qin Yu, has come to join us!"
With two loud shouts, the two small squads of the Five Elements Army, which had been scattered, joined up with the central army and inserted themselves from the weak point behind the Jianglan Army.
With their strength further increased, the Five Elements Army swept through the enemy like a whirlwind, turning the scene into a one-sided massacre.
The most distinctive feature of a battle formation is its perfect unity, which can amplify the power of the group onto each soldier. Soldiers empowered by the battle formation are extremely difficult to kill unless the enemy is significantly stronger than them.
Although Jianglan Army's individual strength was slightly stronger than that of the Five Elements Army, apart from the few leaders who were at the Peak of the True Spirit Realm and could kill the Five Elements Army soldiers, the ordinary Jianglan Army soldiers could only struggle to hold on and were unable to effectively kill the Five Elements Army.
In the air, the battle between Chen Duo and Jiang Siqian also reached a fever pitch.
Although Chen Duo is still in the Late True Spirit Realm, she has obtained the insights of the " Acala Heart Sutra " left by Chen Haoran from Chen Mu, and has already cultivated the " Acala Heart Sutra " to the point of minor success.
Moreover, the body-tempering techniques she learned from the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion have been improved in the Rune Research Institute. Now, her physical defense is so strong that even if she stands still and lets Jiang Siqian attack her, it will be difficult to harm her.
Clap clap clap!
"Take this! Great Destruction Palm!"
Jiang Siqian was anxious because he couldn't do anything to Chen Duo, so he used his most powerful martial arts technique.
"The Bright King destroys the world, the Brahma Dharma Seal!"
Chen Duo formed a Buddhist mudra with her hands and threw a punch. The swastika-shaped Buddhist mudra swirled around her hand, colliding with Jiang Siqian's giant palm, which was filled with an aura of destruction.
With a loud bang, Jiang Siqian was forced back two steps, spitting out blood and suffering a serious injury.
"As long as the green hills remain, there's always firewood to burn! Let's go!"
Jiang Siqian was a decisive man. He had been watching the battle below closely and, knowing that there was no way to turn the tide, he turned and fled without hesitation.
