Chapter 456: Irreconcilable

Shuang Jing then used talismans, several different ones in a row, applying them to himself one after another.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

A series of Nascent Soul level talismans were consumed in succession, and his combat power soared to more than three times what it was before.

Lord Xiang had been beating the Jin Dan deputy commanders into a miserable state, and upon noticing Shuang Jing boosting himself, he didn't care at first, but soon his expression changed, and his gaze became extremely cold.

Shuang Jing's aura had risen too much, almost reaching the peak of the Nascent Soul stage!

Most of the treasures he used were unrecognizable to Lord Xiang, and the few he did recognize were so expensive that they secretly shocked him.

Lord Xiang roared to the sky; at first, it was a human voice, but it immediately transformed into a magnificent dragon's roar.

Divine Gift—Life Force Collapse!

The life force he had sucked from others was all transformed into violent life energy, erupting at this moment to boost his state in every aspect.

His height rose again, reaching one zhang and six feet. His physique was already burly, and now it was even more imposing. His upper body was like a city wall, and the martial pants of his outfit were stretched tight by his bulging leg muscles, looking as if they were about to tear.

"This old geezer can still get stronger?!"

"Bad, he sucked our life force, his aura has become mixed, and the battle formation's weakening effect on him has been greatly reduced."

"Not only that, even the national power is hesitant; it feels like he's one of our own!"

The Jin Dan deputy commanders saw the subtlety and all showed expressions of shock and fear.

The reason they were able to fight head-on was entirely due to the support of the battle formation, military strength, and national power. Conversely, Lord Xiang had been weakened and suppressed by multiple layers.

But now, Lord Xiang's own combat power had skyrocketed by a large margin. He had also reduced the reduction of national power, immediately breaking the stalemate that the Bai Yu Camp had barely maintained!

Which of the Jin Dan deputy commanders didn't have injuries on them?

Seeing Lord Xiang's wild and fierce posture at this moment, they all hesitated, only daring to surround him but not daring to attack!

Seeing this, Shuang Jing's heart jumped with fear.

If a commander retreats in the face of battle, it is bound to be a huge blow to the army's morale.

He hurriedly roared: "Change formation!"

The general's seal was on him, and the Jin Dan deputy commanders immediately received the order, letting out a long sigh of relief and retreating quickly.

The soldiers of the Bai Yu Camp moved quickly, changing the Seven-Star Gathering Force Formation into the Stars Arching the Moon Formation.

Starlight dotted the air; this time, it did not converge on the seven deputy commanders but formed a pillar-like flow of moonlight, all pouring onto Shuang Jing.

Shuang Jing's aura rose again, his combat power skyrocketing, skyrocketing!

Shuang Jing opened his mouth and spat out a sword qi.

The sword qi was just a ball of air at first, emitting a white-gold color.

Then it instantly sprayed out, turning into a rainbow of light, the brilliance of which was so strong that it made people unable to open their eyes.

Bai Hu Sky-Tearing Sword Qi!

This was one of the Four Symbols Sword Qi, famous throughout the world, and full of the intent of war and slaughter, complementing the battle formation and the battlefield perfectly.

This was Shuang Jing's strongest trump card.

★tTkдn★Co

The white-gold sword qi arrived in an instant, giving Lord Xiang no time or opportunity to dodge.

Boom!

The wild aura was like a hurricane sweeping the surroundings, and the blinding white-gold brilliance soared into the sky, forming a huge pillar of light that directly pierced through the clouds in the high sky.

Shuang Jing laughed loudly: "The Overlord's Pot-Breaking Elixir I took gives me the power of a hegemon for the time of an incense stick; one pill costs 380,000 mid-grade spirit stones."

"My Mayfly Shaking Tree Powder has the effect of the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Art but without any side effects; one bottle costs 420,000 mid-grade spirit stones."

"My Spirit-Ringing Talisman, Fierce Dragon Talisman, Wild Fury Talisman, Dragon-Tiger Body-Adding Talisman, etc., have a total value of over 1.6 million mid-grade spirit stones."

"To practice this Bai Hu Sky-Tearing Sword Qi, I used the bone marrow of a Nascent Soul level Bai Hu, absorbed the sword spirit of a Nascent Soul level magic sword, and consumed Heavenly Tears. Over sixty years, I killed thirteen White Tigers, destroyed seven Nascent Soul level magic swords, and used sixty-four drops of Heavenly Tears. The material cost alone reached 76 million mid-grade spirit stones."

"Old geezer, can you hold on? Can you take it? Hahaha!"

"Hmm?!"

Shuang Jing's expression changed slightly.

The white-gold brilliance was rapidly weakening, and a huge, pitch-black figure appeared so clearly in the pillar of light.

The brilliance quickly dissipated, and Lord Xiang was in a deep pit with a radius of one mu, his body like a mountain, standing tall and unmoving.

The translucent dragon scales on his body were tattered and broken, and there were many bloody wounds on his body, but his aura was still incomparably strong.

On his broad and thick shoulders sat a little boy with dragon horns.

The little boy had golden pupils and large red coral-like dragon horns, stuffing his thumb into his mouth and sucking with a sound.

Seeing Shuang Jing staring at him, a blush appeared on the little boy's cheeks, and he instantly transformed into his true form—a right shoulder armor.

The right shoulder armor was shaped like a dragon's head with its mouth open, wrapping around Lord Xiang's right shoulder.

It was entirely gold and red, its surface as smooth as a mirror, scattering a metallic luster. The dragon's eyes were like diamonds, as bright and dazzling as stars.

There were also fine cloud patterns on the shoulder armor. These cloud patterns flowed slowly, layer upon layer, changing infinitely.

"Spirit, spirit manifestation!" Shuang Jing and the others were dumbfounded.

Lord Xiang smiled proudly: "This move is indeed powerful."

"However, according to what you said, you spent so many spirit stones to forge such an offensive."

"Then, how much should this spirit treasure of mine be priced at?"

Shuang Jing's Adam's apple rolled, and he couldn't speak for a moment.

Lord Xiang lowered his head, and his figure suddenly disappeared from where he stood.

The next moment, he appeared in front of Shuang Jing as if teleporting, and his dragon palm pushed down fiercely.

Boom!

"Bad!!"

Shuang Jing couldn't dodge in time and hurriedly parried, only to be hit by the palm and sent three zhang deep into the ground.

"Commander!"

"Quick, go rescue Lord Shuang Jing."

The Bai Yu Camp was in chaos; the deputy commanders gritted their teeth and swarmed up to kill.

Boom, boom, boom!

The sound of dragon roars continued.

The soldiers of the Bai Yu Camp were hit into mid-air, flipped for a while, and then fell to the ground; many of them had no breath left.

"As expected of Lord Xiang!"

"Quick, let's follow and attack."

The Jin Dan cultivators of the Qianfeng Forest outside, seeing the opportunity, immediately took action.

The Bai Yu Camp suffered attacks from both inside and outside, making things worse, and casualties increased sharply.

The military situation of Lord Xiang of Qianfeng Forest wreaking havoc in the Bai Yu Camp and firmly occupying the upper hand was quickly transmitted to every battle group.

Inside the Light Mountain Heavy Mist Map.

Cave Master Mo Yuan smiled and passed the jade slip recording the latest military situation to the other three cultivators.

Mo Xin and the others were convinced: "Sure enough, everything is as you expected, Great Cave Master."

Cave Master Mo Yuan: "In this way, our side has already taken the initiative."

"Send this military situation to the opposite side as well."

Mo Xin and the others were stunned; what kind of operation was this?

Sun Gan of the Golden Halberd Army soon received this jade slip, and after confirming that there were no traps, he also learned the military situation in the jade slip, and his expression changed.

The request for help from the outside also flew over.

Lu Hongtu decisively loosened the formation map, revealing a gap, and let the flying letter in.

Sun Gan learned of it, and his face turned livid.

Just as Cave Master Mo Yuan, Mu Lan, and others expected, most of the soldiers in the Bai Yu Camp were well-connected and had close ties with the high-ranking nobles of the two kingdoms.

If Sun Gan ignored it, even if he won and returned to the court, it would be equivalent to offending most of the court, and he would definitely not have a good ending.

"Quick, the whole army attack!"

Sun Gan hurriedly roared.

The battle formation that the Golden Halberd Army had accumulated for a long time had not reached its peak, but it erupted with a dharma image.

The dharma image was like a battle halberd, golden and shining, incomparably huge, flying into the mountains and heavy mist, splitting mountains and cutting mist wherever it went, invincible.

Cave Master Mo Yuan and the other four had stern expressions, exerting all their strength to maintain this formation.

Barbarian Demon Camp.

"Advance, advance!!"

Xu Dali was covered in blood, leading the Iron Barrel battle formation, killing toward Gu Ya.

Wolf corpses were everywhere, and casualties were heavy.

And Di Lu had already gone to battle, fighting Xu Dali many times, but could not defeat him, retreating steadily, with more and more injuries on his body.

If it were a one-on-one fight, Xu Dali would still be far behind Di Lu. But after the multiple boosts of the battle formation, military strength, and national power, Xu Dali could fight two with one, putting the two Nascent Soul cultivators of the Cangyue tribe at a absolute disadvantage.

However, Xu Dali also paid a heavy price on his side.

Half of the elite soldiers and personal guards around him had already been lost!

This was not something that could be made up for by casual replenishment.

The request for help from the Bai Yu Camp was transmitted.

The deputy commander's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly raised the letter to persuade: "General! Our comrades are in crisis and are asking us for help! If we turn back to rescue them, we will definitely be able to destroy the enemy's plot."

Xu Dali, however, had already killed until his eyes were red, stiffening his neck and refusing without hesitation: "Not going!"

"Those young masters of the Bai Yu Camp are usually arrogant; let them suffer a bit."

"Besides, when we sent a request for help before, they didn't move at all. Now they want us to rescue them?"

"I want to kill these two barbarian beasts and avenge our soldiers!"

Xu Dali roared, charging up again.

The deputy commander sighed deeply, hurriedly commanding the remaining soldiers to piece together the Iron Barrel formation, following Xu Dali's charge.

The Bai Yu Camp's request for help was also transmitted to the Red Flower Camp.

Mu Lan received the letter, and her face turned pale.

The thing she was most worried about had happened!

"If the Bai Yu Camp is crushed, the Golden Halberd Army will inevitably be distracted and likely be taken advantage of by the enemy."

"The key is that we are traveling with them; if we don't rescue them, even if we win this time, the civil and military officials in the court will inevitably exclude my General Mu's mansion even more in the future."

"In such a situation, how can I revitalize the General's mansion?"

Mu Lan looked up at the sky.

The giant Pegasus transformed by Ma Feitui flapped its wings, blowing wind, its hooves as heavy as ten thousand jun, stepping down fiercely, pressing the Red Flower dharma image of the battle formation to tremble.

The soldiers formed a formation, running their magic power, running constantly, already panting.

Fortunately, the Red Flower Camp was equipped with a magic power pool, which could effectively assist, consuming the magic power within, greatly reducing the scale of magic power used by the soldiers.

"But if this continues, our army will be completely pinned down here."

"Damn it!"

"Although I have the means to defeat this demon cultivator, after using it, I will have little power to fight again."

"Not to mention leading the army to rescue the Bai Yu Camp."

"What should I do?"

Just as Mu Lan was hesitating, shouts of killing suddenly came from the east.

She turned her head abruptly and saw smoke rising in the east, the mountains and forests trembling, and birds flying in chaos.

Mu Lan was both surprised and happy: "Could it be the Three Generals Camp?"

Sure enough, a moment later, she could see the charge of the Three Generals Camp with her naked eye.

Liu Er, Guan Hong, and Zhang Hei were the sharpest arrowheads, two forming a formation, one charging, taking turns attacking, killing Chen Lingfeng, Wu Hen, and others until they retreated steadily, miserable.

The Three Generals Camp took the initiative, which gave Unlike Ning Zhuo plenty of time to calmly recover his magic power.

After his magic power recovered, he acted according to the situation, casting spells, not seeking to kill, but only to delay and contain.

The three of Liu, Guan, and Zhang, with his help, actually killed three Jin Dan cultivators in succession!

"The military advisor's methods are mysterious."

"Five-element spells are cast in turns; his methods seem endless!"

"Coming from a great clan is truly extraordinary; the military advisor is young, yet he has mastered so many spells, so he can easily take the most suitable ones, specifically targeting the enemy."

The three generals' evaluation of Unlike Ning Zhuo rose another level.

Unlike Ning Zhuo, however, was not very satisfied with himself.

"Although I received multiple boosts, my spell offensive has fully reached the Jin Dan level, but because of this, the magic power consumption has increased sharply; after casting two or three times, the magic power will bottom out, and I cannot fight for a long time!"

Mu Lan Camp.

"Great, the three generals Liu, Guan, and Zhang have killed their way over; we have strong reinforcements and can repel Ma Feitui." Zhang Zhongyi was overjoyed.

Seeing Unlike Ning Zhuo's stunning performance again, he said to Mu Lan: "Look, I said this child is capable; today's battle really bloomed with dazzling brilliance."

Mu Lan stared at the battle of the Three Generals Camp, her eyes flickering, and she pondered: "The three generals are also not ordinary Jin Dan cultivators, and their combat power is not bad."

"But even so, it will still take some time for our army to join forces with the Three Generals Camp to repel Ma Feitui."

"If this drags on, what will happen to the Bai Yu Camp?"

"The Bai Yu Camp is the key!"

Mu Lan saw the battle situation clearly and was worried about the overall situation.

Thinking of this, her face sank, and she made a decision.

The next moment, she waved the commander's flag, commanding a change in formation.

The Red Flower dharma image grew abruptly, including Ma Feitui in it, trapping him temporarily.

Ma Feitui had fought the Red Flower Camp many times and had already learned this move, so he was not panicked, while charging left and right, laughing: "Girl Mu, you've lost your mind; this move consumes a lot, but it can't trap your Grandpa Ma!"

Mu Lan's expression remained unchanged, and the commander's flag in her hand waved more urgently.

The Three Generals Camp approached the Red Flower Camp quickly; whether it was the three generals Liu, Guan, and Zhang, or Unlike Ning Zhuo, they all looked forward to fighting side by side with friendly forces.

"General Mu Lan, Lord Zhang Zhongyi, let's kill the enemy together!" Unlike Ning Zhuo was in the army formation, shouting loudly.

The soldiers of the Three Generals Camp saw that they had joined forces with friendly forces and cheered, although they were physically and mentally exhausted, their morale rose again.

But the next moment, the Red Flower dharma image spun and rose, trapping Ma Feitui, and fell onto the heads of all the soldiers of the Three Generals Camp.

Battle formation variation—Irreconcilable!

The marching speed of the Three Generals Camp plummeted, as if they were carrying a mountain.

Conversely, the Red Flower Camp was light and fast, leaving the battlefield.

"Don't go!" Ma Feitui roared in anger, struggling hard in the Red Flower dharma image.

The harder he struggled, the greater the pressure on the Three Generals Camp.

The faces of the three of Liu, Guan, and Zhang turned yellow, red, and black like the bottom of a pot. They wanted to fight side by side with Mu Lan, but the latter had thrown the Nascent Soul enemy to them!

Even Unlike Ning Zhuo's expression became very cold, his eyes staring gloomily at the Red Flower Camp moving away.

"Good, a good Red Flower Camp, a good Mu Lan!" ===== CHAPTER 457 =====
