Reverse War Surpass Immortal

After Duan Gujin had everything prepared, he concentrated on waiting inside the Imperial Mausoleum, anticipating Xu Tianhuo to lead the army and break into this place.

"Success makes the king, failure makes the outlaw, it all comes down to this one move!"

A tense expression painted the Seventh Imperial Uncle's face.

"Seventh Imperial Uncle, please don't be nervous! The Illusionary Disappearance Array I've set up here is extremely powerful! What we need to do is just concentrate and wait for Xu Tianhuo to lead the army and attack here!"

Duan Gujin spoke calmly.

"It's not that I'm nervous, I'm excited!"

The Seventh Imperial Uncle quickly spoke up, masking the fear in his heart.

Duan Gujin let out a dry laugh, discerning from the Seventh Imperial Uncle's facial expressions that his heart was filled with fear.

After all, there was a clear difference between him and the Seventh Imperial Uncle.

The Seventh Imperial Uncle was a bona fide member of the Imperial Family; if he failed, he could only face Cao Dingtian's ruthless slaughter.

Duan Gujin could retreat for the moment, and he might even escape from Country Gulai.

But the Seventh Imperial Uncle had no way out.

In terms of mental state, the two were completely different.

In order to deceive Cao Dingtian, the Seventh Imperial Uncle even released information that there were a great deal of secret treasures of Country Gulai in the Imperial Mausoleum.

Soon after, Cao Dingtian's subordinates reported this information to him.

Upon receiving the news, he immediately sent people to investigate whether there were indeed secret treasures in the Imperial Mausoleum.

After an investigation by his subordinates, the information was quickly verified.

"I really didn't expect that there would actually be secret treasures in the Imperial Mausoleum of Country Gulai!"

Having confirmed the truth of the news, Cao Dingtian gasped in surprise.

A flicker in his eyes indicated that he knew he should decisively strike against the Seventh Imperial Uncle.

"If I don't act now, who knows if the Seventh Imperial Uncle might find some extremely powerful secret treasures in the Imperial Mausoleum!"

And so, he issued an urgent command overnight, telling Xu Tianhuo, who was rushing towards the Capital City, to swiftly head to this place.

After receiving Cao Dingtian's secret order, Xu Tianhuo gritted his teeth with hatred.

But at this point, he could not stop his troops from advancing relentlessly toward the Capital City.

Days passed by, one by one.

Soon, the army of 300,000 led by Xu Tianhuo sped to the Capital City.

After they entered the Capital City, Cao Dingtian allowed them to make some adjustments and rest.

On the third day, Cao Dingtian led Xu Tianhuo and his troops to attack the Imperial Mausoleum.

In less than an hour, they arrived at a place one kilometer away from the Imperial Mausoleum.

As they approached the Imperial Mausoleum, Xu Tianhuo suddenly felt a sense of danger flashing in his mind.

So, he hurriedly ordered the troops to stop.

This action by Xu Tianhuo puzzled Cao Dingtian, who was alongside him.

"Xu Tianhuo, why have you stopped?"

Xu Tianhuo furrowed his brows slightly, saying, "Prime Minister, I don't know why, but I suddenly have a dangerous premonition?"

"Can you figure out why you feel this premonition of danger?" asked Cao Dingtian.

"I can't! It's just a dangerous premonition, I really don't know what the actual danger is!"

Xu Tianhuo stated confidently.

"Perhaps you are too tired. In that case, I will let my 5,000 Imperial Guards rush in first, and then your soldiers can follow!"

Cao Dingtian said.

"Good!"

Xu Tianhuo quickly nodded in agreement.

Since Cao Dingtian allowed his men to take the lead and scout for him, why wouldn't he be willing?

At this moment, what they did not know was that their arrival had already been noted by Duan Gujin and the Seventh Imperial Uncle.

"They finally arrived!"

Duan Gujin took a deep breath of the murky air. Releasing his Divine Sense, he sensed a troop of about 5,000 soldiers moving toward the Imperial Mausoleum's location within a 500-meter radius, while more than 200,000 soldiers were resting at a place one kilometer away.

Over these days, the spies sent out by the Seventh Imperial Uncle had relayed all the information they gathered back to Duan Gujin and the Seventh Imperial Uncle.

Thus, Duan Gujin and the Seventh Imperial Uncle had a fairly thorough grasp on Cao Dingtian and his reinforcements.

"As expected, they first sent some soldiers to scout the way!"

Duan Gujin had anticipated this possibility early on and had made the corresponding preparations.

His figure flashed as he entered the Illusionary Disappearance Array ahead.

After entering, he started to control the Illusionary Disappearance Array.

In a moment, the Illusionary Disappearance Array began to envelop the nearby area of three kilometers.

When Xu Tianhuo and Cao Dingtian, about a kilometer away from the Imperial Mausoleum, suddenly felt as if they were enveloped by a powerful energy, their faces changed dramatically, and a sense of alarm surged in their hearts.

"It seems like something's wrong!"

Xu Tianhuo was a veteran with abundant combat experience. He had previously sensed the existence of danger, and now he truly felt that the danger was right beside him.

He realized suddenly, "We've been tricked!"

At this moment, astonishment and disbelief took over the faces of Cao Dingtian and the others.

"Could it be that we have entered an Illusion Array?"

Previously, he had only sensed an odd energy emanating from ahead, but he had not linked that strange energy to an Illusion Array.

It wasn't until that strange energy completely surrounded their vicinity that he realized they might have entered an Illusion Array.

Cao Dingtian immediately came to a realization, "We must have entered a very advanced Illusion Array!"

"Right!"

Everyone around him responded in unison.

"Everyone, pay attention, stay close to each other, don't wander around! We have now entered a Maze! Remember, do not wander around!"

Many present had previously ventured into Mazes, and they had a certain understanding of them.

In their hearts, the Maze set up by the Seventh Imperial Uncle here was similar to those they had encountered before, not much different.

They believed that they could possibly break through the current Illusion Array.

"The area of this Imperial Mausoleum isn't large; we can push through it by force!"

After a while, Xu Tianhuo said to Cao Dingtian.

"Alright! Then, we will bust through in a moment! We have enough soldiers; we can completely crush this Illusion Array!"

"Right! Right!"

Cao Dingtian nodded quickly in agreement, fully accepting Xu Tianhuo's suggestion.

They had been indecisive before, partly because they didn't know much about the Imperial Mausoleum, and also because Cao Dingtian didn't want his soldiers to suffer too many losses before.

But now, knowing they were trapped in an Illusion Array, he realized how difficult it would be to break through it.

Either way meant death; he felt that his side could rely on their superior numbers to forcefully break the Illusion Array.

After all, his 300,000-strong army was at his command, and he believed that they could completely overwhelm any opponent that appeared before them.

He knew he couldn't let his troops get trapped in the Illusion Array for too long; if they stayed there for an extended period, they would be affected by the Illusion Techniques released by the Illusion Array.

"It's time for a decisive battle!"

Xu Tianhuo thought to himself.
