“Main General!”
“Quick, go rescue Lord Shuangjing.”
The White Jade Camp was in chaos; the Deputy Generals clenched their teeth and swarmed in to fight.
Boom boom boom!
The sound of a dragon’s roar was incessant.
Soldiers from the White Jade Camp were blasted into the mid-air, flipped around for a while, and then crashed down to the ground; many of them were breathless.
“Indeed, it’s Lord Long!”
“Quick, let’s join the offensive.”
The Golden Core Cultivators of Thousand Peak Forest, upon seeing the opportunity, immediately took action.
The White Jade Camp, attacked from both inside and out, quickly saw a surge in casualties amidst the worsening chaos.
The military situation, with Lord Long of the Thousand Peak Forest vastly dominating the White Jade Camp, was swiftly conveyed to all combat groups.
Inside the map of Light Mountain and Heavy Fog.
With a smile on his face, Mo Yuan Cave Master passed the Jade Slip containing the latest military situation to the other three Cultivators.
Demon Heart and others were obediently delighted: “Everything is as you have predicted, Great Cave Master.”
Mo Yuan Cave Master: “With this, we have taken the initiative.”
“Send this piece of military information to the other side as well.”
Demon Heart and others were puzzled; what kind of maneuver was this?
Sun Gan of the Golden Halberd Army soon received this Jade Slip and, after confirming that there were no traps, also learned of the military news within, his face turning pale.
The outside world’s rescue letters also flew over.
Lu Hongtu decisively released the grip on the Array Map, revealing a gap to let the Flying Message in.
Upon learning the news, Sun Gan’s face turned ashen.
As Mo Yuan Cave Master and General Mu Lan and others had predicted, most of the soldiers and subordinates in the White Jade Camp were connected to nobles and high-ranking families of Liangzhu Country.
If Sun Gan chose to ignore this, even if he were to return victorious to the Court, he would have offended most of the Court members, and there would be no good consequences.
“Quick, full army attack!”
Sun Gan urgently roared.
The battle formation of the Golden Halberd Army, having built up for a while but not yet at its peak, erupted with its Dharma Form.
The Dharma Form, resembling a battle spear shimmering with golden light, immense in size, shot toward the heavy mountains and fog, cleaving through mountains and slashing through mists, utterly unstoppable.
Mo Yuan Cave Master and the other four had grave expressions, exerting all their strength to maintain the Array.
In the Barbarian Demon Camp.
“Advance, advance!!”
Xu Dali, drenched in blood, led the Iron Bucket Formation and charged at Gu Ya.
The battlefield was strewn with wolf corpses, and the casualties were severe.
Di Lu had already been fighting, having engaged with Xu Dali several times, he was unable to resist and was being steadily driven back, accruing more and more wounds.
In a one-on-one match, Xu Dali was far below Di Lu. But with the amplifications from the battle formation, military power, and national power, Xu Dali could take on two enemies, putting the two Nascent Soul Cultivators of the Cangyue Tribe at a complete disadvantage.
However, Xu Dali had also paid a heavy price.
The elite soldiers and personal soldiers by his side had already suffered a fifty percent loss!
This was not something that could be easily replenished.
The rescue Flying Message from the White Jade Camp was delivered.
The Deputy General’s eyes lit up, hastily waving the message and urging: “General! Our fellow comrades are in crisis and are seeking our help! If we turn back to the rescue, we can thwart the enemy’s scheme.”
Yet, Xu Dali, with bloodshot eyes, refused without hesitation: “No go!”
“Let those spoiled brats from the White Jade Camp get a taste of hardship; they always act so high and mighty.”
“Besides, when we sent out rescue letters before, they didn’t budge. And now they want us to turn back and rescue them?”
“I must kill these two Barbarian Clan beasts to avenge our fallen soldiers!”
Xu Dali roared and charged forward once again.
The Deputy General sighed deeply and hastily commanded the remaining soldiers, lining up the Iron Bucket Formation to follow Xu Dali into the fray.
The rescue Flying Message from the White Jade Camp also reached the Red Flower Camp.
General Mu Lan’s face turned pale when she received it.
Her worst fear had come true!
“If the White Jade Camp collapses, the Golden Halberd Army will definitely be distracted and could easily fall prey to the enemy.”
“The key point is, since we are allies, if we do not rescue them, even if we win this time, the civic and military officials in the Court will surely isolate General Mu’s Mansion even more in the future.”
“How can I revitalize the General Mansion under such circumstances?”
Mu Lan looked up into the sky.
The gigantic Heavenly Steed that Ma Feitui transformed into was flapping its wings, generating gusts of wind. Its hooves, heavy as a thousand pounds, came crashing down hard, causing the Red Flower Dharma Image in the Battle Formation to tremble repeatedly.
The soldiers formed their Arrays, circulating their Mana, constantly moving about until they were all out of breath.
Fortunately, the Red Flower Camp was equipped with a Mana Pool, which effectively assisted and consumed the Mana used, greatly reducing the scale of Mana needed by the soldiers.
“But at this rate, our forces will be completely tied down here.”
“Damn it!”
“Although I have the means to defeat this Demon Cultivator, after using it, I will hardly have the strength to fight again.”
“Let alone lead the troops to reinforce the White Jade Camp.”
“What should I do?”
Just as Mu Lan hesitated, suddenly, a roar of battle cries came from the east.
She swiftly turned her head and saw smoke billowing from the east, the mountains trembling, birds scattering in the chaos.
Mu Lan was both shocked and elated: “Could it be the Three Generals Camp?”
Indeed, moments later, she could see with her own eyes the charge of the Three Generals Camp.
Liu Er, Guan Hong, and Zhang Hei, as the sharpest tip of the arrowhead, took turns in formation and charged, their relentless attacks pushed Chen Lingfeng, Wu Hen and the others into retreating step by step, suffering indescribably.
With the Three Generals Camp taking the initiative, Ning Zhuo had ample time to calmly recover his Mana.
After recovering his Mana, he acted opportunistically, casting Spells not to kill, but to delay and contain.
With his assistance, Liu, Guan, and Zhang managed to kill three Golden Core Cultivators in succession!
“The Strategist’s methods are profound.”
“The Five Elements Magic cast in succession, his means seem inexhaustible!”
“Born from a noble family, truly exceptional, the Strategist at such a young age has mastered so many Spells, thus being able to easily choose the most suitable ones, specifically targeting the enemy.”
The three Generals’ esteem for Ning Zhuo rose another level.
Yet Ning Zhuo was not so satisfied with himself.
“Although with multiple amplifications my magic offensive has fully reached the Golden Core Level, it also caused my Mana consumption to surge. After casting it two or three times, my Mana would be nearly depleted, completely unable to sustain long-term combat!”
Mulan Camp.
“Great, Generals Liu, Guan, and Zhang have killed their way here; we have strong reinforcements and can now repel Ma Feitui,” Zhang Zhongyi exclaimed joyfully.
Upon seeing Ning Zhuo’s stunning performance, he said to Mu Lan: “Look, didn’t I say this lad is exceptional? In today’s battle, he truly shone brilliantly.”
Mu Lan, however, was focusing on the Three Generals Camp’s combat, her eyes flashing, she pondered: “The three Generals are not ordinary Golden Core Cultivators; their combat power is remarkable.”
“But even so, for our forces combined with the Three Generals Camp to repel Ma Feitui would still require some time.”
“If this drags on, what about White Jade Camp?”
“White Jade Camp is the key!”
Mu Lan keenly analyzed the battle situation, her heart weighed down by the overall situation.
Thinking this, her expression darkened as she made a decision.
The next moment, she waved the command flag, directing a change in formation.
The Red Flower Dharma Image suddenly grew, enveloping Ma Feitui within, and temporarily trapping him.
Ma Feitui, having clashed with the Red Flower Camp numerous times, had already learned of this tactic, so he remained calm, laughing as he struggled: “Mu girl, you’ve grown muddleheaded, this move consumes much yet can’t trap your grandfather Ma!”
Mu Lan’s expression unchanged, her command flag waved even faster.
The Three Generals Camp quickly approached Red Flower Camp; whether it was Generals Liu, Guan, and Zhang, or Ning Zhuo, all were looking forward to fighting side by side with their allies.
“General Mu Lan, Lord Zhang Zhongyi, let’s fight the enemy together!” Ning Zhuo, within the ranks, shouted loudly.
The soldiers of the Three Generals Camp, seeing they were joining forces with allies, also cheered. Though worn out, their morale soared even higher.
But in the next moment, the Red Flower Dharma Image spun up, trapping Ma Feitui, and fell right on top of all the soldiers of the Three Generals Camp.
The Battle Formation transitioned—Not Sharing Flowers!
The movement speed of the entire Three Generals Camp plummeted as if they were carrying a range of mountains.
In contrast, Red Flower Camp moved light-footedly, astonishingly fast, withdrawing from the battlefield.
“Don’t go!” Ma Feitui, infuriated, roared as he forcefully struggled within the Red Flower Dharma Image.
The fiercer he struggled, the greater the pressure on the Three Generals Camp.
Liu, Guan, and Zhang’s faces turned one yellow with anger, another nearly dripping blood with redness, and one black as the bottom of a pot. They had wanted to fight side by side with Mu Lan, but she had thrown the Nascent Soul enemy onto them!
Even Ning Zhuo’s expression became extremely grim, his gaze fixed on the departing Red Flower Camp.
“Good, good Red Flower Camp, good Mu Lan!”
