Chapter 23: The Great War Begins

Having obtained the Break-Zong Pill, after Yun Shan gave some instructions to Yun Leng, he went to the back mountain to go into seclusion to impact Dou Zong.

After a month of seclusion, Yun Shan, who had stayed at the Nine-Star Dou Huang realm for many years, finally broke through to Dou Zong with the help of the Break-Zong Pill.

Yun Shan did not choose to hide the news of his breakthrough to Dou Zong, so this matter soon spread in the Jia Ma Empire.

When Yao Ye learned that Yun Shan had really broken through to Dou Zong, she was indeed surprised.

She never expected that Yun Shan, who had stayed at the Nine-Star Dou Huang realm for many years like her great-grandfather, would break through to Dou Zong within a month after her great-grandfather's death!

Her mood was very complicated now, and she didn't know whether she should be happy or unhappy.

Happy because now that Yun Shan had broken through to Dou Zong, the strength of the alliance between the two sides had become stronger, and the battle with the Snake People Clan could be won faster, greatly reducing the casualties of soldiers.

Unhappy because Yun Shan had broken through to Dou Zong, and the Jia Ma Imperial Family Guardian Jia Xingtian had died. After this war, the threat of the Yunlan Sect to the Jia Ma Imperial Family would be even greater.

Yao Ye had always felt that their war with the Snake People Clan would definitely be won by them, even without the participation of the Yunlan Sect.

Since Yun Shan had broken through to Dou Zong, there was naturally no reason to delay any longer.

Yun Shan soon gathered the elders and disciples of the Yunlan Sect, preparing to go to war with the Snake People Clan.

Three days later, under the command of Yun Shan and Yao Ye, the army appeared majestically in the Taguer Desert, and stationed troops twenty miles outside the city walls of the Snake People Clan.

For this war, the Snake People Clan had long been preparing, and the leaders and strongmen of the various tribes of the Snake People Clan had already gathered in this city.

On the tall city walls, the elders of the Snake People Clan and the leaders of the eight major tribes, these strongmen above Dou Wang, were already standing here, looking at the allied army of the Yunlan Sect and the Imperial Family.

One of the tribal leaders looked at the garrison outside the city walls and said worriedly: "Great Elder, will the King Consort really take action?"

If the Queen were here, they might not be worried. Although Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing was the King Consort who was going to marry Mei Du Sha Queen, he was ultimately an outsider, and he felt a bit uneasy in his heart.

What's more, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing hadn't appeared until now.

"Yes, the King Consort promised me some time ago, and he will definitely not break his word."

The Great Elder had more contact with Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing and knew that Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing was not the kind of person who would easily break his word.

And the Great Elder knew about Lin Shan, this strongman who had just appeared by Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing's side some time ago.

Originally, it was Ji Feng who protected Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing, but ever since this person came, it became this person protecting Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing, plus Ji Feng's attitude towards this person, the Great Elder could be sure that this person's strength must be stronger than Ji Feng's.

With two Dou Zuns protecting him, Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing, who possessed such a powerful background, had no need to lie to them.

That's right, the Great Elder had already defined Lin Shan as a Dou Zun stronger than Ji Feng. In her view, Dou Zun was already the top part of the pyramid of the Dou Qi Continent, and she didn't even think about the realm above Dou Zun, or rather, didn't dare to think about it.

Hearing the Great Elder's affirmative answer, the leaders of the various tribes also breathed a sigh of relief. They naturally knew that this King Consort had a Dou Zun by his side. As long as the King Consort promised to take action, they didn't need to worry at all.

The next day, in the vast desert, yellow sand raged. After the allied army, which had been stationed outside the city for a day, heard a loud and urgent horn, the assembled army set out.

Originally, there should be negotiations before the two armies fought. If they could reach an agreement, they wouldn't need to meet with weapons.

If the Snake People Clan had only killed a few ordinary Dou Wangs, it might have been resolved through negotiations.

But this time, the Snake People Clan killed their Sect Leader and the Imperial Family Guardian, so this matter couldn't be negotiated at all.

Without any negotiations, the two armies directly met in the Taguer Desert.

The Snake People Dou Wangs and Dou Huang strongmen all used Dou Qi to transform wings and stayed above the city walls.

Counting carefully, there were as many as fifteen people flying in the sky.

The Snake People Clan had been able to survive in the Taguer Desert for so long without being destroyed by the Jia Ma Imperial Family, so their strength was naturally not to be underestimated.

The realm of the leaders of the eight major tribes was Dou Wang, plus Hua She'er of the temple and a potential Snake People Dou Wang strongman, plus the four Dou Huang elders of the Snake People Clan.

Although the three elders other than the Great Elder could not fight because their lifespan was about to end, they still had to come out to show their faces to boost morale.

And the last one was not using Dou Qi to transform wings, but stepping on the void and floating in the sky.

That's right, this person was Ji Feng.

Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing promised the Great Elder that he would let Ji Feng take action, but he hadn't fought for a long time, and he suddenly felt a bit itchy and wanted to go up and play.

Seeing Character: Character: Character: Jiang Xing stepping on the void, the Snake People on the city walls were naturally greatly boosted in morale.

The Snake People strongmen were all holding spears, waiting in full battle array on the city walls, just waiting for the allied army to approach and receive orders to launch an attack.

And on the side of the allied army, there were nineteen strongmen and a flood dragon flying in front of the army.

Among them, there were eighteen Dou Wang strongmen and one Dou Zong strongman.

And that flood dragon was the guardian beast of the Jia Ma Empire Imperial Family—the Youhai Flood Dragon.

The Youhai Flood Dragon is the guardian beast of the Jia Ma Empire Imperial Family. It comes from the Youhai, is a flood dragon, and has lived for hundreds of years. The strength of the Youhai Flood Dragon reached the cultivation of a Seven-Star Dou Huang. The Jia Ma Empire Imperial Family could stand for so many years without falling, not only because of Jia Xingtian, but also because of its presence.

The Youhai Flood Dragon began to follow Jia Xingtian to fight everywhere when it was young, and made great contributions to the Jia Ma Empire, but it also left serious hidden illnesses in the battles. Yao Ye originally didn't intend to let it come, but the Youhai Flood Dragon insisted on coming, saying it wanted to avenge Jia Xingtian.

At this time, the Great Elder in the sky saw the allied army approaching and immediately issued an order.

"Listen to my orders, spear throwers, prepare, throw!"

Following the Great Elder's order, the Snake People on the city walls quickly threw the poison-coated spears in their hands towards the allied army that was about to approach the city walls.

Thousands of spears were fired in unison, shooting towards the allied army below.

Even though the strongmen flying in front of the allied army used Battle Skills to block these spears one after another, some spears still passed through their defenses and shot and killed nearly a hundred allied soldiers behind.

As the defending side, the Snake People Clan had a great advantage, so they didn't go out of the city to meet the enemy, but were all on the city walls throwing spears, bows and arrows, or using long-range Battle Skills at the allied army that was about to approach the city walls.

After several rounds of spears, bows and arrows, and Battle Skill attacks, the allied army had already lost more than a thousand soldiers before reaching the bottom of the city walls.

Seeing their companions fall beside them, countless soldiers roared and rushed forward desperately.
