Seeing that the black evil turtle covered with a rocky shell was unable to withstand the penetration of these inscribed rockets and was roasted to death from the inside, Loran Hill finally understood why the Undead Sequence could unify the world and establish the Mercury Dynasty in the Western Continent, but the same was not true in the Eastern Continent.

However, the dragon veins on this land gave the Dragon Sequence too many advantages, forcing the Undead Sequence to bow down.

After an incense stick of time, the fire cart was fired, and the wilderness was littered with the charred and roasted corpses of demons, with long metal arrows stuck in them, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of gunpowder.

A large number of demons died, and a small number of demons, seeing the bad situation, fled in fear and scattered far away. However, there were not many of these demons left, so they could not cause any trouble for the time being.

After the battle, the number of deaths on the border army side did not exceed one hand, and even the number of injured was less than 20, most of whom were accidentally injured by the rockets from the fire wagons.

After the battle, Tu Haoyang asked some soldiers to stay behind to clean up the battlefield, eliminate the demons that were not yet dead, and collect some recyclable materials. Then he led tens of thousands of troops to continue northward, heading towards the valley dozens of miles away.

"Tu Haoyang is willing to give it up." Bu Moyin and Luo Lanxier rode together, following behind the main camp.

"Lord Jialan may not know that although these fire carriages are powerful, they burn a lot of money. Most governors use them sparingly. But Tu Haoyang went the extra mile and directly launched over 30 of them. You should know that each of the rockets on them is a silver-level creation with inscribed patterns. After launching one carriage, 60 golden dishes are launched. In this case, 2,000 golden dishes were launched at once."

"The situation is urgent now, so it won't be excessive to waste a little. After all, military funds are meant to be burned." Loran Hill looked at it and shook his head slightly.

"But you, weren't you very worried about the Youchi clan before? Why are you worried about their money now?"

"Because... I've seen too many people lose their lives for a few silver rings." Bu Moyin sighed.

Although she grew up in Luojing, her frequent travels gave her a deep understanding of life in various parts of the empire. While things were relatively easy in the more prosperous areas, in the more remote areas, many villagers were forced to take risks, sometimes even risking their lives, just to earn a few silver rings.

"I did a rough estimate in the valley the other day. Even if we bought all the goods in the valley, we would only have about 200 gold dishes. This is what nearly 300,000 people produce in a year."

"In other words, this rocket firework destroyed nearly 10 years of accumulation of the Youchi clan." Bu Moyin couldn't help but sigh at such a huge gap, although she knew in her heart that Tu Haoyang was not wrong to do so, and it was even very right.

"It will get better slowly." Loran Hill held her hand to comfort her for a while, and then the two of them gradually approached the valley that had separated them for several days.

————————

In the Valley Shrine, Granny Gro was sitting quietly in the main hall, closing her eyes and carefully sensing the situation of the dragon vein beneath her.

Nearly half an hour later, she slowly opened her tired eyes.

"How is it, Lord Gro?"

Besides Granny Gro, there was only the witch Qingling in the hall. Seeing that Granny Gro looked unhappy, she felt worried.

Granny Grove shook her head before she spoke.

"It still doesn't work. Now that the Nine Netherworld Qi has erupted within the Sunset Mountains, the several dragon veins that were originally cleansed have also been polluted and are gradually losing their sensitivity."

"If this continues, without the guidance of these dragon veins, the Nine Netherworld Qi will only accumulate deeper and deeper, and I'm afraid it will breed more and more powerful demons."

"Is there no solution?" Qing Ling was a little anxious.

"Perhaps this won't end peacefully. If the dark energy of the entire Sunset Mountains erupts, we'll probably have to mobilize armies from several nearby continents and unite with nearly five families to attack it. Only then can we slowly eliminate it, finally re-seal it, and restore the previous balance."

"Now, these broken cracks in the cave are like a hole in a paper window, and the wind blows faster and faster, and the hole becomes bigger and bigger, and it can no longer be repaired." As she spoke, the old witch seemed to have aged a little.

"Lord Jialan has already persuaded the governor to send troops. Later, the Xiangyu Sect and Zhaoye Palace will probably send reinforcements. Even so, can't the problem be solved?" Qingling seemed to be looking for some comfort.

"If they can arrive in a short time, maybe..." Granny Gro was not too sure whether the current Shangmen Sect was as powerful as before. After all, everything had changed so much.

The sun was high in the sky. After defeating the monsters in the wilderness, these elite border troops finally arrived outside the valley.

“Attack!”

The few demons entrenched outside the valley retreated upon seeing the continuous army approach. However, now that the border troops had reached their destination and were no longer in a hurry, they changed their previous laissez-faire attitude and began to dispatch troops to pursue and kill.

The ones who took on this task were none other than Tu Haoyang's direct subordinates, the 'Black Leopard Cavalry'. These cavalrymen, dressed in dark yellow armor, holding long spears, covered with black and yellow cloaks on their backs, and with apricot-yellow feathers on their helmets, were recklessly hunting down these lone demons in the wilderness.

The long spear was swung down from the horse moving at high speed, bringing up a streak of blood, and directly picked off the head of a ghost ape, which rolled to the ground. Then the headless corpse slowly fell down.

On the other side, a slow-running nightmare tapir was also surrounded and killed by a dozen "Black Leopard Riders". They charged one after another, driving it away continuously, and then inserted their long spears directly into its body, until the man-eating nightmare tapir finally fell down exhausted and was cut into several pieces by the blades.
