Chapter 119 - Interference
Chapter 119 – Interference
After Sect Master Ren Liu sacrificed himself, Li Jun kept his promise and just subdued the disciples and elders of the Black Moon Sect.
After the sect had fallen, many other scholars and government officials quickly took over all the territories of the Black Moon Sect. A process that was remarkably fast and easy.
Unlike other other kingdoms and dynasties, the people living in those territories did not have any sense of belonging to the Black Moon Sect–especially given how this sect views ordinary people as nothing but labor farms that take care of their lands for them.
As such, when the common people heard that another powerful dynasty had conquered the tyrant known as the Black Moon Sect, they were more than happy to hand over the power to the Great Xia Dynasty.
Meanwhile, back in the Barbarian Wolf Kingdom, after a few days of constant attack and occupying many cities, the legion headed by General 2 was discovered.
The people of the Barbarian Wolf Kingdom used a bunch of highly trained flying demonic beasts to uncover the position of the Soaring Phoenix Constructs.
As such, all three Number Generals were then forced to fight the kingdom's army in a head on confrontation.
On a vast plain, Generals 2, 4 and 5 stood in front of an army of about 100,000 soldiers. Meanwhile, opposite them stood an army at least three times their size led by more than 5 generals wearing armor with a wolf design for helmet.
General 2 looked at the army preventing their advance, and he did not really care. What caught his attention was the more than 10,000 cavalry soldiers sitting on large wolves.
He had read about the famous Hunting Wolf Calvary of the Barbarian Wolf Kingdom. And personally, he was quite excited at the prospect of his army fighting head on with them.
However, he knew such a thing was impossible as that would cause too many casualties to his legion.
As such, he waved his hand, then a soldier stepped forward and handed General 2–who was sitting on a demonic horse–a small pill.
General 2 looked at the pill with a smile, then threw it into the air.
The commander of the Barbarian Wolf Kingdom noticed his enemy throwing something, so he ordered his men to take a defensive formation. However, to his surprise, he realized that the oncoming projectile was not directed at their army.
But to a few hundred meters outside of the battlefield. The commander had a puzzled look on his face until the pill hit the floor and an odd scent enveloped the entire.
Immediately afterwards, the Swift-Wolves under the Hunting Wolf Cavalry' soldiers became agitated and started acting up.
The soldiers were quite surprised as these wolves were properly trained for many years and have always been docile.
As such, they immediately used secret methods to calm them down and controlled them, however, it was to no avail.
On the contrary, the Swift-wolves became more agitated, then all their eyes turned red. The wolves started to collectively howl in the sky, then, without hesitation or care for their rider, they rushed in the direction that the pill landed.
With more than 10,000 wolves rushing together, the cavalry's formation was instantly destroyed. The majority of riders were thrown off the back of their companion, then trampled to death by the pack.
As the wolves rushed for that pill, they left a trail of blood and death behind them. The commander of the army tried to stop them by roaring out loud with his powerful oriqin qi, however, no one listened to him.
The wolves seemed to have all become mad at the exact same time. To be exact, they were overwhelmed by desires, greed especially.
The pill that General 2 threw over was actually specially made by both Wang Wei and Yan Liling to deal with the Hunting Wolf Cavalry.
They used Wang Wei's origin qi ability that allowed demonic beasts to break free from bloodline restrictions.
Yan Liling took a large amount of Wang Wei's origin qi, then mixed many spiritual materials that give off an intoxicating scent and refined it into a pill. Whenever this pill is used, it will drive all demonic beasts crazy; it will awaken in them the instinct or desire to evolve their own bloodlines.
After the wolves reached the place the pill landed, a killing feast instantly took place.
One wolf took the bite of another to prevent it from acquiring the pill, however, before the wolf could rejoice at its victory, someone from behind slashed him in his throat with a sharp claw.
And just like that, the Swift-wolves started killing each other without any impunity for their actions or any regards for the same race.
All these demonic beasts care about is killing one another until one person remains the victor.
All the soldiers in the plain looked in horror as these wolves brutally massacred one another. There was blood, limps, organs, and brain matter scattered everywhere.
After a few minutes, the bestial brawl was over. And as expected, there was no final winner. The majority of the wolves were dead, and the ones still remaining alive were in no shape to battle.
After seeing this, the morale of the Barbarian Wolf' soldiers was terribly low. The Hunting Wolf Cavalry has always been a symbol of might and invincibility throughout the kingdom.
And yet, they suffered such a terrible defeat. What's even worse, they were not defeated in battle and there was no glory in such a defeat. Because only a single pill took out such a prestigious legion.
The commander of the kingdom's army realized the situation of his men and was prepared to do something to raise morale.
Unfortunately, General 2 did not provide him with the opportunity. As soon as the wolves finished their slaughter, he ordered his army to march forward.
Under order, all the soldiers of the Great Xia Dynasty started moving forward. With each step they took, they would strike their spears into their shields, creating a clashing sound.
Clang!
Clang!
Clang!
The sound was very rhythmic as it echoed throughout the vast plain. As the dynasty' soldier approached their enemy, they had created a terrifying momentum for themselves.
The soldiers of the Barbarian Wolf Kingdom suddenly felt that someone was slowly squeezing their hearts, making their breathing unstable. If it was not due to the strict military discipline, many of them would have long run away as they watched the sound of death slowly approaching them.
As a matter of fact, many soldiers have already planned out their escape route even before the battle started.
As the two armies crashed, it was a one sided slaughter.
The Great Xia soldiers were faster, stronger, and had better armor than the Barbarian Wolf' soldiers. What's more, their troops' morale was at an all time high.
As such, the soldiers killed anything or anyone that stood in their way. With a shield in one hand and a spear in the other, they stabbed any person that was not wearing similar color armor as them.
With coldness and ruthlessness in their eyes, the Great Xia soldiers marched over their enemy's dead bodies, leaving a trail of carnage in their wake.
In fact, Generals 2, 4 and 5 were not surprised by this outcome. One of the benefits that Wang Wei has received in this world is the ability to train powerful armies quickly through martial arts.
In the Myriad Emperor World, most armies are made up of cultivators. Wang Wei is even aware of armies made up entirely of Supernatural Realm cultivators. And there might be even more powerful ones.
However, one of the downsides of cultivating such an army is that it takes too long to train. Even though the cultivation method used in the army sacrificed life spans in order to increase strength and speed of cultivating, it still takes a very long time to train.
However, the Martial Arts in this world is different. With a few changes of Wang Wei, he could quickly cultivate soldiers as powerful as the Divine Sea Realm as long as he had enough resources.
This is something not possible in the Myriad Emperor World. Although martial arts also existed there, but, it is only used by ordinary people who do not have [Leakless Bodies] to remain strong and healthy. Well, to be precise, it was used by nobles in Mortal Kingdoms and Dynasties.
With the help of martial arts, ordinary mortals can live up to 115 to 120 years, as long as they take good care of themselves.
In fact, Wang Wei wanted to use martial arts to train his soldiers to have the strength of Divine Altar Realm, However, only one person had reached such a strength through martial arts.
He is known in this world as the Martial Ancestor, the creator or inventor of Martial Arts in this world.
However, this person has been dead for countless years and there is no record of him leaving the method or technique to reach the strength of Divine Altar Realm through Martial Art.
Wang Wei has been searching for information about him throughout the world, hoping that he would find his legacy.
As for the reason he did not create the method himself, it is because it would take too much time and he deemed it not worth it as this martial art method would probably only help him a little in the early stage of his cultivation.
. . .
The battle between the Great Xia Dynasty and the Barbarian Wolf Kingdom was still ongoing.
After seeing the terrible defeat of his army, the Barbarian Wolf Commander ordered his other four generals to interfere in the battle. However, General 2, 4 and 5 intercepted these people and began a fierce fight with them.
Despite being outmatched 5 to 3, General 2, 4 and 5 still managed to easily kill their opponent as only 2 of them were in the Divine Altar Realm.
After this victory, General 2 led the Great Xia Army straight to the Barbarian Wolf's Capital.
Just like that, a month passed by.
Wang Wei was sitting on his Dragon Throne while having a meeting with a few officials when brand new information was sent from the frontlines.
"Are you saying that some outside force interfered in our conquest of the Barbarian Wolf Kingdom's Capital?" asked Wang Wei with a frown in his face.
"Yes, His Majesty," replied one of the Fate's Shadow under Grand Censorate Wang Ju's control.
"Who is it!" demanded Wang Wei.
"Well it's…"
