The First Order

Chapter 215: Spirit of Battle Saint Guan?

"What is the use of white diamond?" Lin Mu Yu asked in a surprised voice.

Da Niu narrowed his eyes and said, "You don't know? White diamond is very rare, but it's the favourite decoration of noble girls…..It's said that the white diamond itself can release light, so there are many noble girls who use white diamond to decorate their boudoirs. Usually, a girl that can have even a single piece of white diamond is envied by others."

Seeing the pieces of white diamond in the cliff, Lin Mu Yu knit his brows. This was a large amount, but he had no chance to take it since it'll soon enter Hu Tie Ning's bags.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Mu Yu used his spiritual sense to examine these white diamonds, but he found that there was spiritual energy inside the white diamonds resisting his spiritual sense. God…..Could it be that white diamonds were rich with heaven and earth spiritual energy!?

He carefully analyzed the white diamond with his spiritual sense and found that although this crystal was called a diamond, it was actually more like metal. Only it was a metal without a clear characteristic, at least it wasn't on the table of elements. The crystal form of the white diamond was made of tiny molecules and each one was placed in a similar structure to diamond, so it could be imagined how hard it was.

"It's said that white diamond has another use!" At this time, an old man who was around sixty years old said while stroking his beard.

"Oh? What use?" Lin Mu Yu and Da Niu asked together.

That old man said with a faint smile, "I've heard the older generation say that this white diamond is incomparably strong and it has a powerful destructive might towards battle qi, so…..The ancient craftsmen used this white diamond to form weapons and these weapons could easily destroy battle qi armour. This also means that even an expert in the Heavenly King level could have his defenses destroyed with a single hit from this white diamond weapon….."

Da Niu raised a brow and said, "Bullshit! The empire has quite a bit of white diamond within it, so why hasn't there been a weapon forged out of white diamond?"

"This is because there hasn't been a divine craftsmen in the later generation!"

The old man revealed a smile of contempt, "You kids, you wouldn't understand even if I told you, hei….."

White diamond could break battle armour!?

This was like a bolt of lightning falling down on Lin Mu Yu. How many Heavenly King and above experts relied on the powerful battle armour to run through armies? But if white diamond could be cast into a weapon, then it would become the mortal enemy of a Heavenly King expert! Moreover…..Lin Mu Yu could see a scene already. If the white diamond was formed into an arrowhead, couldn't it have the effect of instantly killing a Heavenly King expert?

If it was like this, perhaps people like Zeng Yi Fan and Xiang Yu wouldn't be as terrifying as one imagined. After all, faced with thousands of arrows…..That was not something anyone could resist.

Instantly Lin Mu Yu came to a decision. This white diamond couldn't be left to Hu Tie Ning at all, otherwise it would be a large problem!

"Aiyo……"

He suddenly twisted his body and Da Niu asked, "Little brother Lin Zhi, what is it?"

"My…..My stomach is hurting, I'm heading up first."

"Alright…..Alright, be careful!"

"Thank you big brother Da Niu……"

This Da Niu was very straightforward and honest, people liked that.

Quickly exiting the mine, Lin Mu Yu came to the northern cliff. He descended the mountain under the pretense of having diarrhea and directly charged into the Dragon Courage Camp's main tent. It was currently the middle of the night.

"Gather all the thousand man commanders and above." He said in a low voice.

Wei Chou immediately cupped his hands, "Yes!"

After a few minutes, several drowsy looking officers arrived in the tent. They all had surprised looks on their faces, "General, calling us in the middle of the night, are the Yun Zhong County troops attacking us?"

"Of course not."

Lin Mu Yu shook his head and said, "Gather the troops, we'll attack the mountain at night. We have to take Fire Axe Mountain before the sun rises. The Heaven Charging Army will bring up the rear while I'll personally lead the Dragon Courage Camp to attack the mountain, we'll break through in one strike."

"Yes!"

Luo Yu and Feng Xi cupped their hands and said, "The Dragon Courage Camp is waiting for sir's orders!"

They quickly took out torches and each Dragon Courage Camp mercenary had several water bottles on them, since it wouldn't be easy for them to descend after ascending the mountain. They had to prepare early, so they could avoid the fate Swordsmen Hall suffered on Fire Axe Mountain.

In the night, Lin Mu Yu led a thousand Dragon Courage Camp heavy cavalry to attack the mountain gate. In the distance, Wei Chou killed the Silver Ranger guarding the gates with one arrow.

"Be careful, those empire dogs are attacking us!" A warning sound came from the walls of the stone fortress.

Not being able to delay it, Lin Mu Yu quickly activated his martial spirit. The golden gourd covered him and his horse and he charged at the gate. Suddenly raising his right fist, the space twisted around it as he gathered his power. He used around 40% of his battle qi to send out a Fourth Luminary, God and Spirit's Cry!

The Fourth Luminary was a ranged attack, sending out the power of spirits and gods slamming into the gate like a shell, instantly shattering the iron gate into several pieces, even shattering parts of stone wall. The rangers on the wall gave out pitiful cries as they watched the Dragon Courage Camp soldiers under the flames charge up the mountain. Not a single one dared to block them as they shouted out in fear, "Aiya, damn, are they even still people…..Sir, show mercy, we're willing to join the royal army!"

Quickly breaking the gate, it was like Lin Mu Yu expected. There were still over two thousand rangers on the mountain, but at least half of them were guarding the mine, so there were less people outside on guard. It was most likely because the Swordsmen Hall people thought that Lin Mu Yu wouldn't dare attack with the Yun Zhong County army here, but they were wrong in the end. This was because the white diamond was just too enticing to Lin Mu Yu, he couldn't resist it at all!

The Dragon Courage Camp swept through them and killed their way up the mountain. They could move unimpeded with just over a thousand heavy cavalry.

Actually the main forces were the sixty Imperial Guards in front. The strength of the Imperial Guards was known to the entire world. With these sixty experts attacking the mountain, it would be a miracle for Swordsmen Hall to stop them.

"Be careful, their Great Envoy is coming!"

Xiahou Sang raised his spear and charged over. He said while laughing, "Leave this Great Envoy to this subordinate!"

That Great Envoy was a white haired old man, but the ending was not what Xiahou Sang expected. The battle qi swept out and Xiahou Sang was sent flying with his horse, not being the other side's match at all.

Lin Mu Yu narrowed his eyes. This Great Envoy had battle armour, it was a Heavenly King expert, but his aura was even stronger than his. The most important thing was that the Great Envoy's weapon was a spirit grade sword!

"With me, Guan Long Sheng here, who dares act audaciously!?"

The Great Envoy swept out his sword and had a fierce look on his face. The rangers behind him regained their morale as they revealed smiles, "Sir Great Envoy is truly unmatched, we will win!"

"Pa!"

Lin Mu Yu suddenly jumped off his horse as he quickly raised his battle qi. Holding the Dragon Spirit Sword, he dropped out of the sky with the sword being covered in the power of the Second Luminary. He shouted, "Who cares if you're a Great Envoy, take my, Lin Mu Yu's sword!"

"Un? Lin Mu Yu!"

The Great Envoy's eyes were stunned. He quickly raised his sword to block Lin Mu Yu powerful slash!

"Dang!"

Sparks flew out and small iron pieces flew off the sword's blade. It was clear that it was far weaker than the Dragon Spirit Sword, but the Great Envoy was not weak. He suddenly raised the sword and slashed out.

"Weng!"

The golden gourd wall was released and Lin Mu Yu barely resisted the other side's slash, causing his vital energy to swell. Damn, no one that could reach the Heavenly King Realm was weak, he had to rely on his advantages!

He used the force to move back before stepping on the ground and jumping out to send a strike. This time it was the power of the Third Luminary that filled his sword, with True Dragon Flames surrounding the blade to raise its might.

Guan Long Sheng quickly turned and the blade created sparks as it was dragged across the ground.

Dragging blade plan?

Lin Mu Yu was stunned. Was this Guan Long Sheng Battle God Guan's incarnation?!

[TL Note: Guan Yu's incarnation.]

But being in the air, he didn't want to throw his blade over. The blade dragging strategy was to have the enemy chase and turn to kill the enemy in one slash, but that was no match for the Imperial Sword Art.

"Weng!"

The Dragon Spirit Sword flew into the air and flames surrounded the blade as it charged out of Lin Mu Yu's palm.

Guan Long Sheng heard a sound coming from behind and quickly turned to block with his sword!

"Dang!"

This sound was even more clear as his blade was cleanly broken in half!

"This….."

Guan Long Sheng was stunned, but his face was covered in rage. He held the hilt in one hand and the broken blade in the other as he charged at Lin Mu Yu, sweeping out with his blade before Lin Mu Yu could fall down.

The sword fell onto the gourd wall and it sent him flying. Guan Long Sheng didn't let up and sent out slaps with his hands. How could Lin Mu Yu take this, especially when he was in front of all the mercenaries of Dragon Courage Camp?

His boots stabbed into the earth. After stabilizing his body, the Dragon Spirit Sword returned to his hand and he chopped down as fast as lightning!

"Peng!"

This fast as lightning slash fell onto Guan Long Sheng's shoulder, but his battle armour was still there. He reached out to grab the Dragon Spirit Sword and with a stubborn look, the broken blade in his hand stabbed down at Lin Mu Yu's chest.

Lin Mu Yu reacted quickly as he used his own battle armour to stop that fatal blow. His left hand quickly swung out and flames began to condense as it controlled Dragon Spirit Sword to start spinning.

"Ah, ah, ah……"

With pitiful screams, Guan Long Sheng's hand holding the sword was ripped to pieces. Even his blade couldn't resist the sharp edge of the Dragon Spirit Sword, how could he do the same with his body!

Lin Mu Yu was incredibly quick as he grabbed the collar of the Great Envoy armour Guan Long Sheng was wearing. His right hand held his hilt as he quickly stabbed out at his chest!

"Pu!"

Blood splashed in all directions. Guan Long Sheng, a generation's expert, the Great Envoy of the Cangnan Province's Swordsmen Hall headquarters had reached the sad ending to his life.
