Chapter 306: Mountain Moving
In these three months, the Fengyun Sect had witnessed the terrifying combat power of the Jiaolong Guard.
There were actually over a hundred Heaven-realm experts!
No matter how many Red Yi troops they faced, the Jiaolong Guard could easily crush them.
The valley in the Long'an Mountain Range had an extremely dangerous geographical location; it could not be ruled out that the Eastern Yi also realized the value of that valley, and it was possible that the Bai Yi had already sent troops to seize it.
Therefore, in order to complete the mission, an elite army must be dispatched.
"This general accepts the order!"
Zhang Shaokang and Ding Ce stood up, their voices clanging.
Yin Qi spread his palm, and a bronze-colored array disc appeared, covered with countless mysterious runes. He said: "Take this array disc; it can withstand the attacks of Earth Witches."
In this Primordial World, building a large pass is easy, but the difficulty lies in the pass-protection array.
Without the blessing of an array, no matter how magnificent the pass is, in front of cultivators, it is as if it were built of sand.
"Many thanks, Your Highness!"
Zhang Shaokang and Ding Ce were overjoyed and hurriedly took it.
With this array disc, they had even more confidence in seizing and holding the pass.
……
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, another three months had passed.
The Yin Shang allied forces, plus the various national armies that had later poured into the Taiyuan Mountain Domain, had completely occupied the Red Yi territory.
……
Zhenyi Pass.
Built at the narrowest point of the valley in the Long'an Mountain Range, it was only a little over a hundred meters wide, with towering mountains thousands of meters high on both sides. Although it could not restrict people from passing, it could restrict the passage of a large army.
Zhenyi Pass was too narrow; not only could the Eastern Yi allied forces not spread out, but the interior of the pass could not accommodate too many troops either.
At most, it could only accommodate ten thousand people.
But this kind of magnificent pass is truly one man guarding the pass, ten thousand cannot open it.
As long as the logistics are sufficient, with ten thousand people guarding it, even if a million people come to attack, they would be helpless.
However, in an Immortal-Demon world, marching and fighting cannot be completely bound by convention.
If the Eastern Yi possessed large troop-transport magic tools, they could completely fly over Zhenyi Pass and transport troops behind it. Therefore, to guard against such things happening, the main force of the army was stationed on the plains outside the Long'an Mountain Range.
The Eastern Yi allied forces arrived late, their war consciousness far more sluggish than Yin Qi had imagined.
He and the main force of the army led by the Fengyun Sect had been stationed on the spot for nearly half a month before the Eastern Yi allied forces arrived at the Long'an Mountain Range and discovered the newly built Zhenyi Pass.
……
Outside Zhenyi Pass.
The 1.4 million allied forces arrived in a hurry, banners fluttering.
Since the Great Priest Wu Yuan was with the army, he was naturally the undisputed Regional Commander.
Looking into the distance at the magnificent Zhenyi Pass, which was actually three hundred meters high, Wu Yuan's expression was somewhat gloomy, and a cold light flickered in his aged eyes.
"What is going on? Why is there a pass here?"
"Zhenyi Pass, was this built by the Yin Shang?"
"Damn it, the Yin Shang is too despicable. To actually build a pass here—could it be they want to occupy the Red Yi territory for a long time?"
"Great Priest, this pass is too steep. How are we to fight it?"
……
The seven tribal leaders were both shocked and angry, discussing it endlessly. They all couldn't help but look at Wu Yuan.
With the 'omnipotent' Great Priest present, they did not think that this mere pass could stop them; what they were angry about was the ulterior motive of the Yin Shang in building the pass.
The Taiyuan Mountain Domain had been theirs since ancient times.
Yet the Yin Shang actually built a pass here and even named it Zhenyi Pass—wasn't this clearly wanting to forcibly occupy the Red Yi territory?
They were used to bullying the various Eastern states, but now they were being attacked in their own lair; how could they accept this?
Wu Yuan's expression was cold and stern.
What the seven tribal leaders could think of, he naturally had thought of as well.
The Yin Shang allied forces must be driven out of the Taiyuan Mountain Domain.
He turned his head to look at the Fifth Priest and said: "You come from the Huang Yi; lead the Huang Yi tribesmen and carve out a marching road through these towering mountains."
The Huang Yi possessed the bloodline of Houtu and were naturally able to control earth.
Since the Yin Shang had secretly dispatched experts above the Immortal realm, there was naturally no need for him to cover things up.
The Fifth Priest nodded in agreement: "Yes."
Soon, twenty thousand warriors of the Huang Yi tribe arrived before the Long'an Mountain Range.
"Houtu!"
Following the Fifth Priest's loud shout, his aura surged, blooming with earth-yellow divine light.
The twenty thousand warriors of the Huang Yi tribe also urged their bloodline abilities; countless earth-yellow rays of light permeated the air, and under the control of the Fifth Priest, a Houtu Dharma Image one hundred zhang tall soon condensed above the army.
The Houtu Dharma Image had a majestic and heavy aura.
The Fifth Priest leaped up, merging into the center of the Houtu Dharma Image's brow, and then, manipulating the Houtu Dharma Image, he pointed a long arm, and instantly, the hills on the earth all 'came alive'.
It gave people the feeling that these countless hills were like bubbles on the earth, capable of sliding freely.
Taking the valley as the center line, countless hills slid away to both sides.
Hill after hill merged, forming even larger mountains.
Soon, the valley that was originally only a little over three hundred meters wide was expanded to tens of li, forming a broad thoroughfare, and this thoroughfare was still extending deeper.
Rumble!
The earth was trembling crazily, as if a magnitude ten earthquake had occurred.
Countless birds flew up in alarm, circling in the sky, and countless animals fled crazily.
They could not understand why, for no reason, the hills were moving.
West side of the Long'an Mountain Range, Yin Shang allied army camp.
Separated by over a hundred li, they could still feel the strong earthquake here, not to mention the terrifying fluctuations emitted by the Houtu Dharma Image, which alerted Yin Qi the very first moment.
He stood up abruptly and looked toward the east.
Although he was in the tent, his gaze seemed to be able to pierce through space, seeing the magnificent Houtu Dharma Image between heaven and earth, with terrifying Earth Laws fluctuating.
"Earth Witch, Houtu Dharma Image!"
Yin Qi's expression was heavy, and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.
He had not expected that the Eastern Yi would actually dispatch an Earth Witch; was this breaking the unspoken rules?
Although the Huang Yi possessed the bloodline of Houtu and were naturally able to control earth.
But without an Earth Witch leading, even if a million-strong army joined forces, it would be impossible to form such a large-scale mountain-moving movement.
To move hill after hill of hundreds of meters to tens of li away—what great power this was!
"Your Highness!"
The Fengyun Sect rushed in from outside, pale with shock: "Urgent report from the front line—the Huang Yi army has made a move and is moving mountains; they have already widened the valley by tens of li."
The valley being widened by tens of li meant that Zhenyi Pass had completely lost its meaning.
Yin Qi's expression remained unchanged, and he said calmly: "Order Zhang Shaokang and Ding Ce to lead the troops to withdraw from Zhenyi Pass. Pass the order down: the army is to be on alert, preparing to meet the Eastern Yi allied forces."
"Your Highness!"
The Fengyun Sect said urgently: "Your Highness, withdraw the troops; there is still time to leave now. Such a large-scale mountain moving must involve an Earth Witch making a move; perhaps even the Sacred Hall Great Priest has come. Since they have broken the unspoken rules, they surely will not hold back."
Although Yin Qi had three warships in his hands, they were not enough to look at when facing a Heaven Witch.
He also had not expected that the Eastern Yi Sacred Hall would be so shameless as to dispatch an Earth Witch, completely disregarding the rules. ===== CHAPTER 307 =====
