Battle at Liuyuan, the Flower Willow Courtyard!
Never mind.
"We must obey orders. As long as we have the advantage at the Dao Foundation Establishment level, our mid-level Qi Condensation combat power will be in an absolute superior position..."
"In addition, there are the Yangzhou Dao Soldiers, 100,000 Warrior, hundreds of Qi Condensation cultivators as the vanguard, and the battle groups under the Yan Miao Bai Clan..."
"There are at least five or six hundred cultivators gathered here, and at least a thousand cultivators throughout the entire Liuyuan Dao District."
"A million Warrior have gathered, and more than ten million ordinary people!"
"And the Flower Willow Courtyard... there's hardly anything left..."
"Millions versus millions, success is in the hands of fate, but the advantage is in my hands! I have nothing to worry about!"
Upon hearing the order, Qin Lu pondered for a moment, then commanded those below:
"Allied forces, the First and Second Armies, are advancing, forcing the gathered auxiliary troops to push forward, with commanders supervising and monitoring the battle..."
"Anyone who retreats will have their back row killed, and those in front will be executed!"
Upon hearing this—
Su Wanchang and Gan Ling stepped forward to receive the order, then gestured for the legion to advance, simultaneously forcing the incorporated auxiliary troops to the front lines...
At the same time, Qin Lu transmitted his Dao of Sound to Qin Wu:
"Wu'er, in this battle, you and Meng Yu will stay in the rear and direct the legions."
"With your father, Qiao Mei, Su Wanchang, and Gan Ling holding the line, you don't need to worry about me if things go wrong..."
"You don't need to worry about the legion; just run."
"Once we return to the clan, if Father's spirit tablet is broken, have your second brother intervene. He is now Alchemist and can ensure the clan's safety..."
"As long as the Huang and Zhang families still have interests involved, they won't necessarily turn against each other."
"If anyone intends to seize my Qin Clan's business, then go to Dao-Seeking Peak. I have left some trump cards on that mountain..."
"If all is over."
"Then let's ignite the subterranean fire on Dao-Seeking Peak, causing the Myriad Poisons Pool to erupt, which could drag the entire Longchuan region down with me!"
Qin Lu remained calm.
His words were filled with determination, clearly indicating that even Qin Lu could not guarantee his own safety in the face of such a large-scale battle.
Upon hearing this—
Qin Wu nodded slightly in acknowledgment, but remained silent.
That's how war is; there's nothing that can be absolutely certain. Qin Lu never considered himself to be one of those legendary Heavenly Fate ones...
Others will die, and so will he!
Especially in large-scale battles like this, the survival rate of Qi Condensation cultivators isn't necessarily high. Although cultivators transcend mortals...
But in the end, there will still be bleeding, and with bleeding comes death!
"Let's begin..."
As the words fell—
From all directions of the entire Flower Willow Courtyard, a dense, dark army began to advance towards it. As a result, the formation was activated, and one after another, wooden puppets stepped out of the formation!
They transformed into countless puppet armies, clashing with the Da Zhou army!
Even beast-shaped puppets at the Qi Condensation Realm continuously joined the battlefield, slaughtering one side's soldiers before they even got close to the magic array...
The offensive encountered resistance and immediately stalled!
"The Eighteen Heavenly Gang Beast Puppets, forged from the souls of eighteen beasts in fire, with the souls as their core, crafted by Old Ghost Liumu..."
"This old devil, after disappearing for so many years, still manages to cause me trouble. Send thirty Qi Condensation Middle Layers cultivators to deal with him."
"Let the Yangzhou Dao Soldiers go in, form a battle formation, and put pressure on the enemy!"
"Yes!"
soon--
The new instructions were relayed to all Qi Condensation Qi Condensation, and thirty of them were named, including Qin Lu!
Subsequently, thirty cultivators, including Qin Lu...
Then they were met with eighteen beast puppets!
On Qin Lu's side, there was clearly no one to help him, and he was facing a black bird puppet, which looked quite similar to the Xuan Bird.
Its aura remained at the Sixth Layer of Qi Condensation.
At a rough glance, its wingspan is a massive ten zhang (approximately 33 meters), and with each flap of its wings, it generates countless tiny vortices!
To a Qi Condensation cultivator, this might just be a larger cluster of wind-attribute Spiritual Qi...
But for ordinary people—
This is the bone-crushing, flesh-slicing wind; even the slightest touch from a mortal will dismember their flesh and bones...
"Break!"
See here--
Qin Lu let out a sharp shout, and Golden Light arrived in an instant!
The Jinyuan Needle, imbued with Law Technique, the Spirit-Breaking Needle, pierced through the black bird puppet's defenses and pierced its head with a single strike...
pity--
This is just a puppet; its head is damaged, but it's not affected in the slightest!
If it were a normal, flesh-and-blood creature, that blow would have been fatal, or at least severely maimed...
"This is getting complicated..."
Qin Lu shook his head, somewhat helplessly.
In a normal fight, once the Tai'e Sword is drawn, who would dare to challenge it?!
However, with so many people around and so many eyes on the matter, the value of a rudimentary Law Treasure is considerable. Qin Lu had to spend a huge amount of Second-Tier spiritual materials to refine this treasure.
Even with several hundred Spirit Stone as a safety net, this is still only in the nascent stage of Law Treasure...
A fairly common type!
Even so, revealing this treasure so hastily would still be too conspicuous...
"The Jinyuan Needle isn't very destructive. It seems we'll have to use this. But controlling the force will be difficult..."
Qin Lu summoned an iron rod—
It was left behind by the Immortal Ziyang back then, and Qin Lu kept it since no one wanted it.
I was thinking of selling it later to see if I could get a good price, but given the current situation, I'll just have to make do with it for now...
but.
Qin Lu didn't want to damage the Xuan Bird puppet. If he could bring it back intact, it might even become a trump card for the Qin Clan!
Even if it can't be used, being more complete is always better.
It allows us to reverse engineer the research to see if we can decipher some technologies, thereby learning from others' strengths and making up for our own weaknesses, and it also broadens the horizons of future generations...
Inheritance doesn't necessarily mean passing on wealth; it can also mean passing on experience and knowledge!
The next moment--
The black bird puppet rushed straight towards Qin Lu, its huge wings instantly creating a gust of wind. With a flap of its wings, countless feathers shot out!
"Good timing!"
Qin Lu shouted loudly, clad in a black robe, and brandished his staff...
He swung the iron rod in a wide arc and then lashed it out sharply!
A burst of energy exploded in the void, instantly dispersing the raging wind. Qin Lu then immediately formed Hand Seals, unleashing vines one by one...
Instantly, a network of vines was formed, blocking all of its feathers!
Subsequently--
Qin Lu simultaneously formed hand Hand Seals, controlled needles with a single thought, and wielded a staff with the other, multitasking without appearing out of place at all; on the contrary, it made him seem exceptionally fierce...
I must say, Qin Lu's staff technique is quite good too!
Although not as skilled in swordsmanship, he managed to overpower the black bird puppet by multitasking, but things weren't so good on other battlefields...
A cultivator at the Fifth Layer of Qi Condensation was actually smashed to pieces by a dragon puppet!
Despite being surrounded by three or four cultivators, the dragon was even gaining a slight advantage, its agility resembling that of a real dragon...
So powerful it's awe-inspiring!
