The imperial city of the Nanman Kingdom in the Southern Region.
The ancient and majestic city lay sprawling across the vast land, as magnificent as ever. In a corner of the city, stretching hundreds of zhang wide, a colossal sculpture of the Barbarian Emperor surveyed his domain.
Five li west of the western gate of the Barbarian capital, Gao Changgong and Xie Hui stood firm before the hundreds of thousands of Jinni Army soldiers. Dugu Xin, Hua Mulan, and Fei Yingdong followed closely, their gaze fixed on the imposing, ancient city on the horizon.
The Nanman Kingdom in the Southern Region, apart from Heyun City, was the oldest city and the gathering place for countless barbarian warriors. It was a symbol of supreme honor for the barbarians. On the city walls, Tianwu soldiers patrolled, their qi and blood surging, showcasing the formidable foundation of the barbarians!
To be on duty in the barbarian holy capital, one had to possess at least some cultivation talent and be a confident, powerful warrior. Countless barbarian soldiers exuded an untamed, rugged aura, their might spreading outwards, carrying a faint scent of blood!
"Military advisor, what is your assessment?"
At the forefront of the vast army, Gao Changgong tightened his grip on the reins, his eyes slightly narrowed. He projected his divine sense, surveying the defensive forces on the city walls.
Xie Hui scanned the horizon, gazing at the magnificent and tall city walls in the distance. He observed the untamed, bloodthirsty aura of the soldiers, and after a while, he couldn't help but frown.
"Strange. Although the barbarian capital is not a center of power, but merely built to display the supreme might of the Barbarian Emperor, it is still the grand capital of the barbarians. How is it that there isn't a single peak Venerable combatant!"
This was the capital city! Even if the Barbarian Emperor didn't attach much importance to it, it was adjacent to Heyun City. Where did this confidence come from? Without a peak Venerable stationed here, how could the capital resist powerful enemies!
"Man Wen, Man Ji, Man Yun, Man Jin, along with the Barbarian Emperor and the Great Shaman, six peak Venerables. This is almost the limit for the barbarians!"
"Judging from the situation on the Western Continent, the Demon Race, which has dominated an era, only has about eight peak Venerables. The barbarian race, which has only risen for a million years, can't possibly have more than these few." Hua Mulan gazed at the magnificent capital city and said in a deep voice, turning her gaze towards Gao Changgong and Xie Hui ahead.
"General Hua speaks wisely."
Gao Changgong turned his head, looking at Dugu Xin, Hua Mulan, and Fei Yingdong. Including himself, there were four peak Venerables under his command. Hua Mulan had also reached the sixth level of the Venerable realm. With hundreds of thousands of top-tier Tianwu soldiers, the army was vast and well-equipped. A barbarian capital without a peak Venerable stationed there could be conquered with a single hand.
The enemy is weak, we are strong. We must devour them!
Even if the Great Shaman and the Barbarian Emperor were present, the Jinni Army, with its four peak Venerables, was not an insurmountable foe!
The Barbarian Desolation, standing at the pinnacle of martial arts in the Cangyuan world, was a being revered alongside the current Demon Ancestor. Their strength was formidable, they were the darlings of this era, outstanding individuals whose strength could not be underestimated!
"Clang!"
Gao Changgong drew the long sword at his waist. His warhorse turned, and his eyes, filled with menace, swept over the hundreds of thousands of Jinni Army soldiers.
"All you soldiers, our Jinni Army and the Azure Dragon Army have been marching beyond our borders for over a month. The Emperor's decree has been issued, and the Azure Dragon Army has fiercely intercepted and blocked Man Wen and Man Ji's army of five hundred thousand, creating favorable conditions for us."
"Now, the Nanman capital lies behind us. It is the holy land of the barbarians, a place that showcases the supreme glory of the Barbarian Emperor. Behind this city is the heart of the Southern Continent, Heyun City. With the enemy before us, our army bears the sacred mission. What should we do?"
Gao Changgong held his three-foot azure sword, pointing it towards the heavens, and shouted!
"With the sacred mission in hand and the enemy before us, we shall crush the Nanman capital, conquer Heyun City, and unify the Southern Continent!"
The roar of hundreds of thousands of Jinni Army soldiers shook the void. Waves of blood-red aura spread for a thousand li, striking the magnificent city before the Jinni Army.
"What is that?"
On the western city wall, a barbarian Venerable general's face turned pale with shock. He hurried to the edge of the wall and looked at the distant horizon. Golden light permeated the void, and rolling killing intent vibrated in the nine heavens. Terrifying auras made his eyes bulge and his heart stop.
"Peak Venerables!!"
"They are peak Venerables! That is the powerful army of the Great Han Imperial Dynasty! That is the powerful army of the Great Han Imperial Dynasty!!"
The barbarian general's lips trembled. He muttered in a low, shaky voice, his eyes vacant, cold sweat streaming down his forehead.
"Jinni Army, receive my command!" Gao Changgong roared, his voice echoing in all directions.
*Boom!*
The Jinni Army banner in the void emanated golden light, obscuring the sky. Below, hundreds of thousands of Jinni Army soldiers knelt on one knee with a resounding thud.
"Roar!"
The golden Jinni in the void trampled through layers of golden light, surveying all directions. Streams of powerful blood qi collided and mingled in the air.
"Nanman capital, Heyun City. Today, this battle must be won! We shall sweep across the Southern Continent. Our army must seize the favorable opportunity created by the Azure Dragon Army to unify the Southern Continent!"
"Kill!"
His long sword pointed directly at the Nanman capital!
"Roar!"
The golden Jinni roared, its sound shaking a thousand li. Streams of golden light gradually advanced towards the capital!
"Crush the Nanman capital, conquer Heyun City, and unify the Southern Continent!"
"Crush the Nanman capital, conquer Heyun City, and unify the Southern Continent!"
The golden Jinni's four hooves shattered the nine heavens. On the ground, hundreds of thousands of Jinni soldiers shouted fiercely, their killing intent soaring into the sky, their furious roars agitating the golden sea of clouds!
......
"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, all the demon soldiers from the northern part of Mo Yun Palace have been apprehended. Neither the Demon Ancestor nor Demon Lord Tian Si were found, nor was there a single demon warrior at the Venerable realm!"
"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, all the demon soldiers from the western part of Mo Yun Palace have surrendered. Neither the Demon Ancestor nor Demon Lord Tian Si were found in the west!"
"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, all the demon soldiers from the eastern part of Mo Yun Palace have surrendered...!"
......
"Nothing?"
Yang Ye stood before the demon cave where the Demon Ancestor had been in seclusion, extending his palm to sense the fluctuations of primal energy. He frowned slightly. "It seems they have escaped."
"Han Shizhong, He Yuanqing, have you discovered anything?"
"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, within tens of li of Mo Yun Palace, no demon warrior at the Venerable realm has been found. Your subordinate suspects that the Demon Ancestor and Demon Lord Tian Si have abandoned the Western Continent. After all, the core seed of the Western Continent has already condensed, and the continent is now a burden with no other use." Su Dan Novel Net
Han Shizhong stepped forward and cupped his fist in salute.
"Since no findings have been made, first detain all the demon race of the orthodox bloodline of Mo Yun Palace, awaiting His Majesty's judgment."
"All generals, the Mo Yun Palace of the Western Continent's demon race has been destroyed. The various cities in the south, west, and east must be conquered at an accelerated pace. In addition, we must meticulously search for the whereabouts of the Demon Ancestor and Demon Lord Tian Si!"
"Effective immediately, the three armies of the White Tiger Legion will act freely. I have only one requirement: within three days, sweep across the Western Continent!"
"Your subordinate obeys!"
