Chapter 294: The Battle Begins
'Kong Xuankong is an old scoundrel, but not a fool. On the contrary, this kind of old hand in the worldly society might seem unreliable on the surface, but in reality, they are quite experienced. He probably exposes so many flaws just to let others see through them.'
Flying in the sky, Qing Yu thought a lot. He guessed that the Shadow King might have the same idea as he did.
Wherever one has passed, traces remain. The more things the Nine Heavens do, the more flaws they leave behind. Even if outsiders can't see through it, the people of the Nine Heavens can gradually sense each other's identities.
Instead of being discovered by others, it's better to find an identity and take the place directly.
This was Qing Yu's idea, and it should also be the Shadow King's idea.
Qing Yu chose his alias, Hidden Mirror Man, as one of the Nine Heavens, letting everyone focus on the Hidden Mirror Man. As for the Shadow King, he chose Kong Xuankong.
'Quite cunning, I just wonder if Zhu Tian also played this trick...'
Qing Yu subtly used his Divine Thought to observe Zhu Tian.
She seemed to sense something, her Divine Thought slightly fluctuated. But Qing Yu's action was too subtle, and even after Zhu Tian checked all around, she found nothing.
'Her Primordial Spirit Cultivation is also high.' Qing Yu silently noted this characteristic.
Qing Yu now possesses Three Souls, each soul's power is interconnected, and he possesses the Saint and Demon Primordial Embryo, with extremely high quality of Divine Thought. That Zhu Tian could sense Qing Yu's probing signifies her remarkable Primordial Spirit Cultivation.
After a little probing, the three of them focused on their journey, and in a moment, they approached the Divine Martial Army's encampment.
"Impressive, the heavy snow seals the plains, greatly affecting the army's morale. Even under such conditions, they still have such Soldier Evil Qi, the Divine Martial Army truly lives up to being one of the top three elite troops of Daqian."
Kong Xuankong gently held the handle of his sword at his waist, gazing at the stationed army in the distance, he marveled.
Perhaps because of the upcoming great battle, this old rogue of the worldly society collected his careless attitude, exhibiting the demeanor that the Universal Blade Lord should have.
"Duke Shenwu Luo Feng is a famous general in the world, known as the 'Daqian War God.' He can borrow the Evil Qi of the battle array within the army formation to enhance his own combat power. If we want to deal with him, we must first eliminate these thirty thousand elite soldiers." Zhu Tian also spoke with a solemn expression.
The thirty thousand Divine Martial Army, each one is an elite soldier of the first class, seasoned in battle formations. The lowest strength among them is above the Postnatal Fifth Realm, with centurions being Innate.
Perhaps individually they may not be notable, but if they form a battle array, they can still pose some influence on those in the Divinity Realm.
If Luo Feng borrows the momentum of the battle array, it would be difficult to defeat him, let alone kill him.
Moreover, Luo Feng's strength is not simple...
Qing Yu's eyes subtly glowed with divine light, gazing at the top of the military camp. In a view visible only to him, the dense Soldier Evil Qi condensed into the shape of a ferocious beast baring its fangs and claws.
It resembled a wolf, with a dragon horn on its head, its gaze showing viciousness. This is precisely the form of one of the nine sons of the dragon, the Yazi.
And on Yazi's back sat a black-armored deity, holding a long halberd, surrounded by endless fierce Evil Qi, with streaks of Death Qi encircling its armor, forming the wails of tortured souls.
Using the Heavenly Son's Qi Observation Skill to look, the murderous aura of Duke Shenwu was almost reaching the sky, with no fewer than tens of thousands of lives lost under his hand.
And moreover, it's highly possible they were directly killed by weapons or bare hands.
"If you two can hold him for an instant, I can slaughter all these thirty thousand elite soldiers." Qing Yu gazed at the military camp for a moment, then said.
"An instant," Zhu Tian chuckled softly, "then this little woman awaits Xuantian's martial prowess!"
"Cough cough, the fortuneteller said that this old man has incurred too much killing, not suitable to commit more murders, so I leave it to you, Xuantian." Kong Xuankong lightly coughed with his fist to his mouth.
"Then let's begin."
As soon as the words left his mouth, Kong Xuankong and Zhu Tian both let loose their aura, the matchless Sword Force and supreme oppression pressing down, causing turmoil below.
Kong Xuankong had no intention of hiding, and drew a jet-black blade light that slashed directly toward the central army camp, loudly shouting: "Luo Fengzi, this old man has come to settle the score with you!"
Before the blade light could reach the camp, it was blocked by the erupting murderous aura. Luo Feng, donned in Black Iron Ghost Mask and clad in pitch-black Ghost God Armor, stepped forward into the air, each step causing a violent tremor like a savage beast striding.
"Kong Xuankong, how dare you intrude on my camp; you are courting death."
As he finished speaking, Luo Feng had already ascended high into the sky, raising his hand to swing a halberd, a pitch-black blade force shooting straight at Kong Xuankong. Following that, Luo Feng charged straight up with a violent, domineering momentum, a clear rhythm of fighting to the death.
"Hmph, Luo Fengzi, that punch you gave this old man last time, I haven't forgotten it? We'll see who dies today!"
The Shattering Universe Saber was unsheathed, Kong Xuankong's blade raised a whirlwind, its matchless edge cutting through everything, even the air, meeting Luo Feng head-on without retreat.
Instantly, endless Qi Force surged and shot relentlessly in the sky, disturbing the heavens and earth.
At the same time, Zhu Tian also materialized at one side, lightly waving her delicate hands, her silver light beams filled with cold and remorseless killing intent shooting downward.
"Ming Jijiu, let us capture her together."
The Divine Captor called out to Ming Rui, and the two of them jointly launched an attack against Zhu Tian, completely disregarding the face of those in the Divinity Realm.
The two are pragmatists, Ming Rui's reputation was already ruined a few years ago in the Literary Arena, so naturally, there was no shame for him.
"The two of you aggressively cornering a weak woman, this little concubine is almost scared!"
Zhu Tian softly chuckled, the jade mask could not hide her tender charm of both anger and flirtation. Light and shadow flashed, four figures appeared in the sky in an instant, each dressed in elegant silver white attire, with a jade mask covering their face, making it impossible to distinguish the real from the fake.
Divine Captor and Ming Rui jointly attacked, the four figures interweaving in the air as if dancing, the cross-cutting Qi Force rendering Divine Captor and Ming Rui's attacks ineffective.
'Kong Xuankong's strength is indeed extraordinary, he was definitely holding back last time. And Zhu Tian, her background is always veiled in a layer of mist, like a flower yet not a flower, like a fog yet not a fog, seemingly possessing a treasure that conceals the Heavenly Mechanism and guards against probing.'
Indeed, those who dare to show themselves are fully prepared.'
Kong Xuankong, since he was meant to replace You Tian's name, naturally feared no exposure. Zhu Tian had a treasure that concealed the Heavenly Mechanism, also not fearing others from noting her true identity.
And Qing Yu, he inherently possessed the reliance of both, intending to pin Xuantian's identity on Hidden Mirror Man, and himself possessing the Nihility Magic Mirror to cover his own background, truly achieving the Great Success of both.
The first to reveal themselves among the Nine Heavens are perhaps those least afraid of exposure.'
'Next, it's my turn to appear.'
The right hand, which was resting on his back, gently lowered, and in Qing Yu's hand appeared an extremely ferocious, savagely wicked Evil Weapon.
Irrationally fierce curves emanated evil killing intent, the crimson blade embedded in the spine of the sword carrying a venomous hatred for cursing the deities and spirits of heaven and earth.
The Great Evil King, this supremely evil and savage weapon has been unleashed.
