Chapter 1292

Great Desolation New Calendar 13th year, God-Blesser 4th year, October, entering winter.

The first to mutiny was the Bi Fang Tribe.

The Great Elder of the Bi Fang Tribe first abandoned his faith in the Divine Lord, took half of the Bi Fang Tribe's high-level officials and one-third of the elite, and joined forces with the previously defected Young Master "Bi Zhou Jie," together defecting to the Witch Tribe.

The Bi Fang Tribe was already close to the Hua family, and they had made many deals with each other, with deep interests.

And the Bi Fang Tribe had had many grudges with the Shu Gu Tribe, with Lu Gu, and even with Mo Hua himself in the past.

As a God-Blesser, Mo Hua did not hold grudges against the Bi Fang Tribe for some of their past offenses.

But the Great Elder of the Bi Fang Tribe was afraid that Mo Hua would "hold a grudge," afraid that one day he would make a mistake, and the God-Blesser would be furious and bestow divine punishment, and he, this Great Elder, would not have a good outcome.

Therefore, he defected.

He defected to the side of the Young Master of the Witch-Eagle Tribe, who could contend with the God-Blesser, and whom even the God-Blesser himself could not do anything about.

In October of the 4th year of the Divine Lord, the Great Elder of the Bi Fang Tribe defected. Seven days later, in the name of the Great Elder, he supported Young Master "Bi Zhou Jie" as the new Great Chieftain of the Bi Fang Tribe, and at the same time announced that the Bi Fang Tribe had formed an alliance with the Witch Tribe, rebuking the so-called "God-Blesser" as a puppet of the Divine Dao, spreading evil words to confuse the public, and being a heretic of the Great Desolation.

This incident was extremely malicious and had a great impact.

The God-Blesser Army was in a panic for a time.

However, in less than a month, the defected Great Elder of the Bi Fang Tribe suddenly entered a dream at night and saw the God-Blesser personally arrive.

The God-Blesser's divine power was great, and under his accumulated might, the Great Elder of the Bi Fang Tribe could not help but kneel down.

Mo Hua pointed at his forehead and claimed to have bestowed "divine punishment" upon him.

The Great Elder of the Bi Fang Tribe woke up in a shock, only to feel his back soaked in cold sweat, his limbs weak and powerless, and his spiritual sense scattered and unable to concentrate.

A life-soul he had enshrined on the altar had been crushed by Mo Hua.

The Great Elder of the Bi Fang Tribe did not know this, but since then, he had suffered great damage to his vitality, had fallen gravely ill, was unable to handle affairs at all, often lay in bed, and was in a state of panic all day long.

Bi Zhou Jie, whom he had supported, took the opportunity to take sole control of power, oppose the God-Blesser, and at the same time marginalized the Great Elder of the Bi Fang Tribe.

In the same year, November.

The Great Chieftain of the Yan Yi Tribe mutinied.

The Great Chieftain of the Yan Yi Tribe was dissatisfied with Mo Hua's trust in the Dan Que Tribe and his heavy use of people like Dan Lie and Seeing Dan Zhu, and he had long been dissatisfied in his heart.

The Hua family sent people to approach the Great Chieftain of the Yan Yi Tribe, secretly giving him enough benefits, and even promised him the position of "Leader of the Zhu Que Tribe Alliance."

The Great Chieftain of the Yan Yi Tribe could not help but be tempted.

Therefore, he also echoed the Bi Fang Tribe's statement, calling Mo Hua, this God-Blesser, a "false name and false position."

The so-called Divine Lord was just an "illusion" created.

The war to unify the Wilderness was just an invasion wearing the coat of a "Divine War," a lie woven by ambition.

The God-Blesser camp was furious.

In December of the 4th year of the Divine Lord, Dan Lie, the Great Chieftain of the Dan Que Tribe, took the initiative to ask for orders to crusade against the mutinous Great Chieftain of the Yan Yi Tribe.

The two sides fought at the Witch-Eagle Peak, with more than twenty battles, and neither side could win.

Until one night, the Great Chieftain of the Yan Yi Tribe entered a dream, saw the God-Blesser, pointed at his forehead, and bestowed divine punishment; he was terrified in his heart and broke out in a cold sweat.

When he woke up, the shouts of killing outside the camp were loud, and the Great Chieftain of the Yan Yi Tribe went out of the tent to see that Dan Lie had already led his troops to kill.

The Great Chieftain of the Yan Yi Tribe fought with Dan Lie.

But his life-soul had already been pinched out by Mo Hua, his divine soul was severely injured, his head was splitting with pain, and after less than a hundred rounds, he was beheaded by Dan Lie.

Before dying, the Great Chieftain of the Yan Yi Tribe knelt toward the east, repenting in his mouth.

With this, the mutiny of the Yan Yi Tribe was quelled.

But at the end of December, the Dan Que Tribe itself also had a mutiny.

The Third Young Master Dan Bie, and some high-level officials of the Dan Que Tribe, chose to mutiny and defect to the Witch Tribe.

They mutinied because of Seeing Dan Zhu.

Mo Hua was a God-Blesser, with immense power, and Seeing Dan Zhu was the "disciple" Mo Hua trusted most, and would surely be the "appointed" Great Chieftain of the Dan Que Tribe in the future.

In this way, Dan Bie could not handle himself at all.

Moreover, he was not just a simple "Young Master."

The tribal interests were complex, and there was infighting; many high-level officials had placed their "bets" on him, this "Third Young Master."

He was carrying "debts" on his body; if he became the Great Chieftain, he could still repay these "debts," but if he couldn't, then his situation would be extremely difficult.

Therefore, he could only gamble and fight for his life.

He could never let Seeing Dan Zhu become this Great Chieftain.

That would mean that he, this "Third Young Master," would become a thorough loser and would also completely lose his identity as the Young Master of the Dan Que Tribe.

Therefore, he could only "rebel."

But Dan Bie's "defection" only lasted for more than a month.

Great Desolation New Calendar 13th year, God-Blesser 5th year spring, Mo Hua calculated Dan Bie's whereabouts, and after locking him with karma, Lu Gu personally took action, beheaded all the high-level officials of the Dan Que Tribe who supported Dan Bie, twisted Dan Bie's limbs, and brought Dan Bie back.

Dan Bie knelt before Mo Hua, willing to die to atone for his crimes.

His father Dan Lie was indifferent, only saying: "The rebellious son is guilty, his crime deserves death, and he cannot be indulged."

Seeing Dan Zhu instead knelt down to plead for his brother, hoping that Mo Hua would show mercy, and he was willing to take the blame for his brother.

Seeing Dan Zhu's words were earnest, Mo Hua agreed, so he stripped Dan Bie of his identity as Young Master, demoted him to a commoner, and spared his life.

Mo Hua also relieved Seeing Dan Zhu of some duties and stripped him of part of his military power as a punishment.

Seeing Dan Zhu was still incomparably grateful.

Dan Bie's mood was complex; he understood many things in his heart and knew that he was just a "pawn" in the hands of the God-Blesser, and could only be manipulated.

But no matter what, he had ultimately survived.

And without the identity of "Young Master," he instead felt relaxed and felt a trace of gratitude toward his younger brother Seeing Dan Zhu.

With this, the internal strife of the Dan Que Tribe was eliminated.

The price was the disappearance of Dan Bie's Young Master identity and the lives of some high-level officials.

Since then, the Gao Tu Tribe and the Ghost Cry Tribe had also had small-scale unrest.

In various tribes, some people with ulterior motives also jumped out.

From the beginning of autumn in the 4th year of the God-Blesser, all the way to the summer of the 5th year of the God-Blesser.

In nearly half a year, there were frequent mutinous hearts within the God-Blesser forces, and internal friction was constant.

These mutinies were all cleared by Mo Hua one by one.

All those who mutinied were killed if they should be killed, and punished if they should be punished.

External pressure would expose internal contradictions.

Leading troops to war, once encountering a strong enemy, mutiny would arise internally.

But only mutiny could test loyalty and temper faith.

Mo Hua used the Witch Young Master, this strong enemy who was a half-human, half-dragon Golden Core monster, and the Hua family's infiltration and enticement of the God-Blesser camp, to purge a large group of people with ambiguous stances and two-sided behavior.

It seemed that their strength was damaged, but those who could withstand the "test" and remain, their faith in the Divine Lord became even purer.

They were also increasingly loyal to Mo Hua, this God-Blesser.

So Mo Hua's forces instead became more refined.

And after half a year of fierce fighting, a large amount of "war data" had been recorded by Mo Hua into his sea of consciousness.

The complex terrain of the entire Witch-Eagle Mountain Realm, the veins of the mountains and rivers, the solar terms of the witch-winds.

As well as the habits of the various tribes of the Witch Alliance, the troop types they possessed, the tactics they were good at, the ambush processes — and so on, all became material for Mo Hua's karmic deduction.

Karmic deduction of war, combined with the many changes of heaven, earth, and man, was the most complex, profound, and changeable type of karmic art.

At the same time, this was also the way to best train people in karma.

Actual combat tempers people, and war tempers the perception of karma.

Coupled with the absolute cold rationality of divine nature, after such a long war, Mo Hua's understanding of karma had risen to another level.

The war in the Great Witch-Wind Mountain Realm also had a clear karmic framework in Mo Hua's mind.

He could finally see clearly the flow of victory and defeat.

Based on his judgment of karma, Mo Hua launched the most crucial battle for the conquest of the Great Witch-Wind Mountain Realm:

The Battle of Witch-Eagle Peak.

The Great Witch-Wind Mountain Realm, the outermost mountains, was the first gateway.

Hundreds of miles inward was Witch Peak, which was the second gateway.

The two gateways, plus the hundreds of miles of natural barriers in between, were the reason why the Great Witch-Wind Mountain Realm was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Now, after half a year of fighting, stumbling and bumping, the God-Blesser Army had approached Witch Peak.

As long as Witch Peak was broken, it was equivalent to breaking through the second gateway and rushing past the natural barriers of the Great Witch-Wind Mountain Realm.

After that, they could go straight into the hinterland of the Great Witch-Wind Mountain Realm and directly threaten the headquarters of the Witch-Eagle Tribe.

Therefore, whether Witch Peak could be broken, to a certain extent, determined the direction of this war.

Mo Hua squeezed all of his divine calculation power.

Heaven's Secret Deduction of Karma, and Cunning Way Branch-Line Troop Control were also used by Mo Hua to the extreme.

All the troops Mo Hua could mobilize were also invested in this battle.

This battle was almost Mo Hua's peak work of karmic deduction.

The troop movements of the Witch Tribe were almost all within Mo Hua's expectations.

The victory or defeat, advance or retreat, gathering or scattering of any troop line on both sides were all unable to escape Mo Hua's detailed and subtle deduction of the Cunning Way Branch-Line.

In this battle, the Witch-Eagle Tribe seemed to be truly fighting against a "god," hitting walls everywhere, and nothing could escape the calculations of the god.

At the same time, Mo Hua also did his best to "calculate" the Young Master of the Witch-Eagle Tribe to death in this battle.

He mobilized all the "experts" he could mobilize and all the "killing moves" he could use.

He also forced the "karma" of the Young Master of the Witch-Eagle Tribe into a dead end, making the Young Master of the Witch-Eagle Tribe fall into a desperate situation of being isolated and helpless, surrounded and killed by heavy forces.

But he still failed.

Under the heavy siege of many Great Chieftains and Great Generals, the Witch Young Master activated the Great Desolation Long Zhen, bore pitch-black dragon patterns, and relying on his dragon-like strong physical body, suppressed all living beings in the Wilderness, and killed his way out alive, like a true son of the black dragon, the Lord of the Wilderness.

All of Mo Hua's calculations fell through.

This just responded to that one sentence: in the face of true strength, all conspiracies and tricks are futile.

After merging with the dragon patterns, the physical strength of the Young Master of the Witch-Eagle Tribe had indeed reached an unimaginable level.

Even Mo Hua, despite exhausting all means, could do nothing to him.

And the Young Master of the Witch-Eagle Tribe, after killing his way out from the siege of the crowd, had his fighting spirit soar for a time, and even wanted to invade the rear of the God-Blesser alone and personally behead Mo Hua.

The Young Master of the Witch-Eagle Tribe knew better than anyone that this God-Blesser, who looked young, was the most core figure in the entire God-Blesser force.

Unique!

Even in a certain sense, this God-Blesser walking in the human world was even more important than that Divine Lord who was high above and didn't know if he truly existed.

Kill the God-Blesser, and the entire God-Blesser force would collapse, and the Witch Tribe would win without a fight.

Sensing the hostility of the Witch Young Master toward Mo Hua, the big tiger roared, and immediately pounced on him.

The third-grade glaring-eyed mysterious tiger also fought with the Young Master of the Witch-Eagle Tribe, who bore dragon patterns, in one place together with the big tiger.

The Taotie dead corpse, Shi Gu, also blocked in front of Mo Hua.

Lu Gu, Dan Lie, and a group of Great Generals and Great Chieftains also gathered around.

Holy Tiger, demon beasts, dead corpses, Golden Core late-stage Great Generals surrounded him.

The Young Master of the Witch-Eagle Tribe was trapped in a heavy siege and had experienced various fierce battles; although he would not be killed, he had no strength to kill Mo Hua again.

He could only look at Mo Hua, who was sitting high on the seat, with a calm expression, like a god in the world, from afar, and finally, his gaze was cold and fierce, and he turned and killed his way out of a bloody path and left.

Not long after, this battle was settled.

The Battle of Witch-Eagle Peak ultimately not only failed to kill the Young Master of the Witch-Eagle Tribe but instead achieved the prestige of the Young Master of the Witch-Eagle Tribe.

After this battle, the entire Wilderness almost knew of the "immortal and undefeated," "invincible in the Wilderness" Young Master of the Witch-Eagle Tribe, who was a descendant of the Dragon of the Great Desolation, whose divine might no one could block, and whose physical body was immortal.

But the Young Master of the Witch-Eagle Tribe was ultimately just one person; even if he was the number one hero of the Wilderness, he could not block a thousand troops and horses, and could not stop the advance of Mo Hua, this God-Blesser.

Finally, Witch-Eagle Peak was still broken by Mo Hua.

The God-Blesser's army killed their way into the hinterland of the Great Witch-Wind Mountain Realm.

In this battle, Mo Hua achieved a strategic victory.

And the Young Master of the Witch-Eagle Tribe established his bloodline and identity as the "Dragon Son of the Great Desolation."

Great Desolation New Calendar 13th year, God-Blesser 5th year autumn.

Since the Battle of Witch-Eagle Peak, a month had passed.

The God-Blesser Army killed their way into the hinterland of the Great Witch-Wind Mountain Realm and began to engage in a life-and-death battle with the Witch-Eagle Alliance to kill people and seize land.

The war entered a white-hot stage.

But at this time, Mo Hua, as the God-Blesser, did not command the overall situation, but instead appeared in a desolate mountain ridge north of Witch-Eagle Peak, accompanied by the big tiger.

——

This was a mountain range close to the headquarters of the Witch-Eagle Tribe.

It had also been under the rule of the Witch-Eagle Tribe until today, when Mo Hua ordered people to attack and capture this desolate mountain.

And at this time, twilight was approaching.

Mo Hua stood alone in the desolate mountain, watching the sunset fall on the horizon, with only the big tiger accompanying him.

I don't know how long it had been, when a figure appeared in the distance.

This figure was tall and thin, wearing a barbarian robe made of black feathers, and it looked like an elder of the Witch Tribe.

Mo Hua did nothing, just watched this person walk over with a calm expression.

When this person who looked like a "Witch-Eagle Elder" walked closer, took off his bamboo hat, and his face changed, he actually turned into the appearance of "Lu Gu," and bowed to Mo Hua: "God-Blesser."

Mo Hua nodded lightly.

"Lu Gu," wearing the Witch-Eagle barbarian robe, continued: "For more than half a year, I have been lurking in the Witch-Eagle Tribe, following your instructions, searching for the traces of the 'Great Desolation Chu Gou Life Art' ———"

Lu Gu turned his head and pointed to the desolate mountain in front of him, "This mountain is the clue ———"

Lu Gu sighed lightly: "I used the identity of an elder to lie dormant in the Witch-Eagle Tribe, and flipped through some classics written in ancient barbarian script by the Witch-Eagle Tribe — these characters are too old, even older than me, and there are probably not many people in the entire Witch-Eagle Tribe who can understand these characters ———"

"According to the ancient characters recorded in these classics, coupled with the old man's verification of the changes in mountain and river terrain over the past half year, I finally learned that this mountain is the Ancient Witch Forbidden Land. Hidden in the forbidden land are some ancient secrets ———"

"There is one more thing I found out ———"

Lu Gu said slowly: "It is said that the Young Master of the Witch-Eagle Tribe was here when he received the blessing of the Witch-Eagle Great God, learned of his destiny as a 'True Dragon,' and was destined to unify the Great Desolation in the future ———"

Hearing this, Mo Hua's heart moved slightly.

On the day of the battle, he saw it very clearly; the dragon patterns on the Young Master of the Witch-Eagle Tribe were a variant of the "Four Symbols Long Zhen."

And Mo Hua was also very familiar with this variant formation.

Even the appearance of the Young Master of the Witch-Eagle Tribe bearing dragon patterns was very similar to the Demon Sect Master of the Gan Xue Mountain Realm and the Ao Prince of the Great Desolation.

If his guess was correct, these two dragon arrays were likely both from the hands of one person ———

Mr. Tu.

The Dragon Map of the Young Master of the Witch-Eagle Tribe was Mr. Tu's work.

The Great Desolation Chu Gou Life Art was also very likely taken away by Mr. Tu.

These two clues, verified secretly by Lu Gu, that is, the ancestor of the Shu Gu Tribe, all converged in one place.

Mo Hua raised his gaze and looked at the desolate mountain in front of him.

He stood for a long time, and he could already faintly feel the aura of an "old friend" related to karma from the desolate mountain ———
