Three years ago, a group of mysterious people annihilated the Ye family. He survived by luck but was thrown into prison, where by chance, he became the disciple of five masters...
Three years...
However, Ye Feng was not worried about starting an unquenchable wildfire, because the Death Mountains were shrouded in dense fog all year round. This fog was very special; it was not only extremely damp, which could suppress the flames, but it could also block the spiritual senses of martial artists.
Therefore, the fire here will definitely not be able to spread to other places.
"Awoooooo..."
"Roar roar roar..."
One after another, the red-tailed beasts roared angrily and charged towards the infantry legion without fear of death.
However, most of the Crimson-Tailed Beasts had already fallen to the ground before they even reached the infantry legion's defensive line, riddled with sieves by one blast after another of explosive fire bullets!
Suddenly, a loud boom echoed through the mountains and forests.
A burst of fire erupted, and in an instant, four Crimson-Tailed Beasts were blasted into pieces!
It was obvious that the flash and shockwave were not from the explosion of the Explosive Bullet, but from the explosion of the Spirit Stone Grenade.
The explosive power of a Spirit Stone Grenade is far more terrifying than that of a Flame Bullet!
You should know that when Luo Qing first started researching artificial spirit stones, she was seriously injured by a spirit stone grenade when she was not careful. If Ye Feng hadn't immediately taken action to treat her, Luo Qing would probably have become crippled.
Luo Qing is a martial artist at the peak of the Separation and Union Realm!
Most importantly, the current spirit stone grenades are far more powerful than the artificial spirit stone explosions that Luo Qing researched back then!
These crimson-tailed beasts, which were only of the fourth or fifth rank, naturally could not withstand such a terrifying explosion!
Rumble!
One spirit stone grenade after another was thrown out, landing among the Crimson Tail Beasts and exploding.
The ground was battling, the air was trembling, and scorching waves of air rolled in from afar, but the night wind not only didn't feel uncomfortable, but instead showed a very satisfied smile.
"This is terrifying! I never imagined that ordinary soldiers could become so powerful after mastering the Flame Rifle and Spirit Stone Grenades!" Rowling exclaimed.
"This is the combat power of the new legion. Otherwise, why would I have put so much effort into building it?" Ye Feng said with a smile.
Chen He scratched his head and said, "I thought we'd have to fight here too, but it turns out we've just been watching the show the whole time."
"Isn't it because those Crimson-Tailed Beasts aren't strong enough? They can't even get close to our infantry legions, so naturally we warriors don't need to lift a finger," Jiang Wei said with a shrug.
"If things continue like this, martial artists will soon have to withdraw from the grand stage of war," Chen He lamented.
"yes."
Rowling nodded in agreement and continued, "An ordinary person with cultivation talent will need about a year to reach the peak of the Body Tempering Realm after becoming a martial artist, a year and a half to reach the peak of the Wheel Opening Realm, and two years to reach the peak of the Qi Movement Realm... This is basically the case for most martial artists. It takes a full four and a half years to go from an ordinary person to the peak of the Qi Movement Realm."
"But we can produce a fully automatic explosive rifle in just two hours, and those two hours aren't just for one rifle, but for a batch, at least dozens!"
"We can produce spirit stone grenades faster than we can produce blasting rifles, after all, spirit stone grenades have a simpler structure!"
"Based on this calculation, martial artists simply cannot compare!"
Ye Feng chuckled and said, "It's just that lower-level martial artists will be replaced; the status of higher-level martial artists will not be shaken by the emergence of new weapons."
“That’s true,” Rowling agreed.
Low-level martial artists have almost no power to resist the attacks of the new-style legions.
However, it's different for high-level martial artists, especially those who have cultivated to the Divine Travel Realm.
A martial artist in the Divine Realm can withstand attacks from spirit stone grenades and fully automatic explosive rifles, and even if they really can't withstand the attacks or win, they can run away!
A martial artist at the Divine Travel Realm can teleport, instantly moving tens of miles away with a thought. Although this new legion is very strong, its marching speed is very poor.
Their idea of catching up with a Divine Realm martial artist who can teleport by relying on their own two legs or flattery is nothing short of a pipe dream!
Not to mention, martial artists at the Divine Realm or even higher can carry out decapitation strikes, something that regular soldiers cannot do.
Therefore, even if the new weapons are very powerful and the new legions are very powerful, they can only replace warriors in the Body Tempering Realm, Wheel Opening Realm, Qi Movement Realm, and Separation and Union Realm. It is already difficult to replace warriors in the True Essence Realm, let alone warriors in the Divine Travel Realm.
Thinking of this, Chen He, Jiang Wei, and Luo Lin all breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, they are not old yet, and with their talent, the possibility of them cultivating to the Divine Travel Realm is quite high.
The two civilians were utterly shocked.
They felt a chill run down their spines, yet they were also incredibly excited.
"This is the new-style army of our Silla City? Amazing, incredibly amazing!"
"Those red-tailed beasts simply can't break through!"
"Yes, over eight hundred Crimson-Tailed Beasts couldn't defeat a legion of two hundred men. Who would believe that if they heard that!"
"Your Lordship is wise, and the new legion is valiant!"
The two civilians were shouting and yelling, but no one was paying any attention to them.
After all, every soldier in the new legion was in high spirits and had no time to waste words with them.
Half an hour passed before we knew it.
The gunfire gradually subsided, and the explosions grew quieter.
When the last red-tailed beast was riddled with bullets, all the soldiers put down their weapons.
"Thank you all for your hard work," Ye Feng said with a smile.
The sound of the night wind contained true energy, so although his voice was not loud, it clearly reached the ears of every soldier.
"Serving the city lord is no hardship at all!"
"We haven't killed enough yet!"
"These red-tailed beasts are too weak!"
The young soldiers shouted excitedly, and the scene suddenly became very noisy.
Rowling immediately shouted, "Don't be arrogant! You're only strong because you're equipped with new weapons. Do you really think you can fight the Crimson-Tailed Beast one-on-one? The Crimson-Tailed Beast is a demon beast, don't you understand?!"
Rowling's reprimand finally calmed the soldiers' excited emotions a little.
Night Wind waved his hand and said, "We won such a brilliant victory, but our losses were negligible, so let's not be so harsh on them."
“I’m just afraid they’ll become arrogant and complacent, looking down on everyone,” Rowling quickly said.
Ye Feng nodded and said loudly to the soldiers on the scene, "You have done a good job. I have seen all your efforts. However, I must correct you. Although you serve me, you are not fighting for me! You are fighting for Silla City, for the people living in Silla City, and for your relatives and friends!"
