Longevity: Starting from Refining Gu-Chapter 442 - 256: Return

Chapter 442 -256: Return

Da Feng felt as if he was being stared at by a ghostly deity at the moment he laid eyes on Chen Qing.

It was not the sensation of being watched by an Ancient Fierce Beast but rather, the gaze felt profoundly mysterious, as if a ghost or god had glanced his way.

Without any reason, Da Feng felt a wave of panic.

However, when he clearly saw Chen Qing’s military strength, he relaxed slightly.

“It turns out there are only about three hundred people. I scared myself.”

“This Lord Wen of Nanli seems mediocre at best. Three hundred people charging at my three thousand soldiers? What’s the difference from courting death?”

“Indeed, just as Her Highness said, all these Qingxu Jidang, they are merely empty reputations.”

“After fighting for over three years, how cowardly and fearful of death must they be?”

At this moment, he only saw Chen Qing raise his hand gently, and the renowned Dragon Cavalry began charging towards him.

Along their path, swinging their spears meant claiming a life—a charge by the three hundred Dragon Cavalry seemed utterly unstoppable!

Da Feng suddenly realized that although there were only three hundred soldiers, each one possessed the strength comparable to his top generals!

Every one of them was in the second realm of Martial Arts, the Dharma Eye Realm. The one riding the Three-eyed Thunder Dragon even surpassed his own martial arts realm!

These weren’t three hundred soldiers; they were three hundred generals!

Wherever the Dragon Cavalry went, the ground was left blood-soaked, their spear swings precise, each one snatching away a life.

That supposedly invincible Dragon Energy was as full of holes as a sieve before them, rendering it utterly ineffective.

The Dharma Eye Realm could see through flaws!

In just thirty breaths, the Dragon Cavalry had advanced a hundred yards, and under their long spears, over three hundred had fallen.

The Dragon Cavalry, like a scythe through wheat, left death in their wake wherever they went, eerily silent.

They even had spare moments to jest, “This seems like the Dragon Jade Lord Xuan Mang talked about. Here, take one, it might be useful!”

“I haven’t forgotten the activation method taught by Lord Thunder Dragon.”

“Though it’s not much use, it’s still a trophy of war.”

With three hundred Dragon Cavalry opening the path, Chen Qing rode the Green Bull among the troops, treating the soldiers of Da Yan as nothing.

As Chen Qing advanced further, Da Feng finally felt fear—the efficiency and ruthlessness of the Dragon Cavalry’s kills far exceeded his imagination.

On a battlefield of cultivators, how could such massive casualties be inflicted in an instant?

Where was the Protective Spirit Energy, the Escape Skill, the Dragon Jade? Were they all useless?

What he didn’t know was that in the clash with the divinely fast Shen Sha Army, the Dragon Cavalry at this moment seemed as if they were born for slaughter, able to seal off all escape routes for Da Yan’s soldiers.

Their coordination was flawless, relentlessly slaying countless enemies.

And this was merely the Dragon Cavalry; the leader of the Dragon Cavalry, that Lord Wen of Nanli, was merely riding a Green Bull at a normal pace towards him, not even lifting a hand!

The horrifying pressure brought by the three hundred instantly swept across the field, and when everyone looked back to see the ease of their allies’ deaths, fear inevitably rose in their hearts.

War, could it also be waged like this?

To kill a cultivator in the Ghost Face Realm, could it truly be this effortless, this clean?

As the Commander of the Three Armies, Da Feng froze for a moment, unsure of how to command.

It was only when the generals around him nudged him that he remembered his role, seeing Chen Qing approaching like death beckoning!

“Retreat!”

“Retreat!”

“Retreat quickly!”

“Back to the city, quickly back to the city!”

“Quick, escort me back to the city!”

At this moment, he felt only the fortified city behind him could save his life.

Lord Xuan Mang glanced with disdain and sneered, “What a bunch of cowards!”

“Dragon Cavalry, form the single-line serpent formation, block their escape route!”

The Dragon Cavalry instantly surged forward, forming a long line of three hundred blocking Da Feng’s route back to the city.

As cavalrymen, yet scattered and aligned in perfect order, the audacity chilled Da Feng’s spine.

How strong must they be to dare display such a stance on the battlefield?

But at this moment, he couldn’t worry about that, “Break through them, break out!”

“We must break through, back to the city!”

Da Feng, having just issued the order, suddenly felt embarrassed; his three thousand were seemingly surrounded by three hundred, an absurd scenario.

Yet the pressure from the enemy told him this was the reality.

Initially, when Wushang saw Chen Qing ordering the Dragon Cavalry to charge, he was puzzled. But now, he understood.

The Dragon Cavalry had reached a new pinnacle of strength, to say each could fight ten was no exaggeration.

Lu Shenglong exclaimed, “Lord Wen used just three hundred cavalry to encircle their three thousand?”

His gaze fell upon Lord Xuan Mang, suddenly very regretful. Why hadn’t he volunteered to follow Chen Qing that one battle years ago?

Otherwise, the position belonging to Lord Xuan Mang could have been his.

But now, there wasn’t much time to dwell on regrets, as Wushang had already ordered, “Open the city gates, all forces march, follow my elder brother and encircle the enemy!”

Lu Shenglong raised his spear, determined to claim many enemies in this battle. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

For he had a premonition that upon Lord Wen’s return, it wouldn’t be long before he would stabilize the realm, likely signaling a long period without battles, indicating no further military honors to be earned.

At this moment, Chen Qing remained silent, merely riding a scarred Green Bull.
