"die!"
Between each level of the Divine Platform, the difference is enormous, not to mention the Divine Platform Perfection level versus the early Divine Platform level.
General Wei, burning his vital energy and soul, caught up with a rogue third-level Divine Platform cultivator in the blink of an eye. He swung his halberd, about to kill him.
With a loud bang.
This person suddenly exploded without warning, making General Wei's face turn very ugly.
On the other side, Kong Hao was equally impressive.
He quickly caught up with a defector from the first level of the altar, but did not kill him. "I will not kill you."
Kong Hao unleashed the full power of the seventh level of the Divine Platform, aiming to capture this person alive.
However, what angered him was that this person also self-destructed.
And so it went, a chase ensuing.
The generals of the Great Gan Kingdom killed all the Grandmasters of the Ancient Barbarian Kingdom and nearly ten Divine Platforms. They pursued them for two hundred miles and arrived at the border in the blink of an eye.
There is also a city on the border of Dagan.
However, there were no ordinary people in this city, only a large garrison.
The city had already collapsed after the previous battle and was reduced to ruins.
Inside, there were countless skeletons.
In collapsed houses, in military camps, beneath city walls...
Corpses were everywhere.
Almost all of them were soldiers from the Great Gan Kingdom.
Many people even die in their beds, in the places where they are resting.
Many people still had a blank look on their faces, as if they didn't know what had happened and died inexplicably.
Lu Tao didn't have time to sigh.
Seeing that the ancient barbarian gods and the four traitors were about to cross the border and enter the ancient barbarian territory, Lu Tao decisively made his move, his bow instantly reaching its full length.
"The Moon Piercing Arrow Technique (Perfected)".
Lu Tao used a perfected mid-grade Earth-rank archery technique to shoot an arrow at one of the injured early-stage Divine Platform cultivators.
call out……
"not good!"
The early-stage Divine Platform Soul issued a warning, instantly detecting the arrow Lu Tao had shot, which was more than ten times more powerful than the previous one.
This person used his movement skills to the fullest extent in an attempt to avoid the arrow.
puff.
However, he was disappointed.
The arrow still struck his shoulder; he couldn't dodge it completely, and his protective aura was shattered.
His entire left arm was shot off, severed cleanly at the shoulder.
"Help me!"
The man was terrified.
This already involves burning one's vital energy and soul, and the longer it goes on, the greater the consumption will be. At this moment, he is also seriously injured, and if he is left behind, he will surely die.
But nobody paid him any attention.
Even Shen Tu Nan didn't give him a second glance and continued to flee.
At this moment, his own life was the most important thing, and he wouldn't waste time on others.
even.
Shen Tu Nan then commanded with his divine soul: "Explode."
In the next instant, the severed-armed altar flew desperately toward Kong Hao and General Wei, and amidst the complex expressions on their faces, it self-destructed and died.
Self-destruction, yet another self-destruction.
This scene has occurred far too many times during this attack and riot.
Each time, they could see resentment and regret in the expressions and eyes of these people.
But we had no choice but to do it.
It seemed as if it were out of control, or perhaps its consciousness and soul were being controlled by someone, causing it to self-destruct involuntarily.
The Great Gan Kingdom also possesses, and even has many, secret methods for controlling the consciousness and soul of others, controlling their death, and taking them as slaves.
Even so.
Those who are controlled will also have a certain degree of autonomy.
Even when their lives are threatened, they can still resist. At worst, they will die, or even perish together with their master.
However, secret techniques like those of Qi Gan and Shen Tu Nan, which allow direct control over a person's consciousness, making them self-destruct without hesitation, neither resisting orders nor choosing to perish together with their master, are also effective.
The Great Gan Kingdom does not have it.
But the ancient barbarian kingdoms did exist.
It is a secret technique created by a peak Martial King from the ancient barbarian kingdom.
That King Wu once relied on his great strength to infiltrate the Great Gan Kingdom, intending to enslave its geniuses. However, he was discovered by the Great Gan Martial God and was eventually killed in a secret realm.
But clearly, his secret techniques have been passed down.
It's even possible that he's not dead yet.
Kong Hao and General Wei exchanged a glance, both seeing the seriousness in each other's eyes.
Such a powerful Martial King, lurking in the Daqian Kingdom for more than ten years... it's terrifying to even think about.
A sense of unease arose in both of them.
At this moment, they could only suppress their unease and continue to hunt down the traitor.
——
"Huh, its power is actually this great?"
Lu Tao was slightly surprised when he shot an arrow that hit the early stage of the altar and broke its shoulder.
In his judgment, the arrow would at most cause him some confusion and interrupt his escape, but it wouldn't cause much damage.
The result was clearly beyond Lu Tao's expectations.
The man was wounded by an arrow and then exploded.
This was a wonderful surprise.
The arrow flew back, and Lu Tao fired it again.
call out……
The same arrow was fired again, this time aimed at another defector from the early stages of the Divine Platform.
"Stop them!"
A suit of armor appeared on the altar, along with a shield and protective aura, attempting to block the arrow.
With a popping sound.
The shield and protective aura were pierced simultaneously, and the spirit arrow struck the armor in the next instant.
With a loud bang.
Unfortunately, the arrow failed to pierce the armor; it merely sent the man and his armor flying.
This person even flew backwards, increasing their speed exponentially.
"Unfortunately, a fifth-grade high-quality bow and arrow is still a bit low in quality."
Lu Tao thought to himself that it was a pity.
Little did he know how much his combat prowess in this battle shocked others.
"Again!"
Retracting the spirit arrow, Lu Tao fired another arrow.
Continue the pursuit of that person.
Of those who defected, besides Qi Gan and Shen Tu Nan, only this person is still alive.
call out.
This arrow was blocked again.
Lu Tao didn't stop, shooting arrow after arrow at the man.
Gradually, cracks appeared in the man's armor, and finally, it was blasted apart with a bang.
puff……
Another arrow.
Without his armor, this man was shot through the thigh by an arrow.
Seeing no possibility of escape, this person also chose to self-destruct to block Kong Hao and General Wei's pursuit.
That concludes the discussion.
Of the defectors, only Qi Gan and Shen Tu Nan are still alive.
During this period, Kong Hao and General Wei also killed several deities from the ancient barbarian kingdom.
In the end, only a handful of people, including Qi Gan, Shen Tu Nan, and General Du, managed to escape the border of Da Gan.
General Wei and his men did not pursue them too far. After chasing them for another hundred miles, they realized they could not capture any more people, so they gave up the pursuit.
——
Having been chased and killed for over a hundred miles by Da Gan, the remaining few deities of the Ancient Barbarian Kingdom felt extremely aggrieved.
Looking at General Wei, Kong Hao, and the others who had stopped, they felt a sense of humiliation.
They were inexplicably turned the tide and the situation was reversed. They were furious, but they had no choice but to accept this reality.
They lost, and they lost badly.
It can be said that the entire army was wiped out.
General Du, Qi Gan, Shen Tu Nan, and the others all had gloomy and extremely ugly faces.
"Lu Tao, if you fight on all sides, you will eventually be swallowed up by other countries. If you have such abilities, why don't you come to my Ancient Barbarian Kingdom?"
Seeing that Da Gan had stopped the pursuit, General Du suddenly had an idea and shouted to Lu Tao, "My ancient barbarians will not hold your past actions against you. We will even grant you the position of National Preceptor and use the power of the whole country to cultivate you and help you become a Martial God and ascend to the God Realm as soon as possible."
Since you, surnamed Wei, kill with your words, I, Du, will also disgust you with my words.
Lu Tao killed hundreds of thousands of soldiers from their ancient barbarian kingdom. How could General Du let him live a carefree life?
The human heart is the most unpredictable thing.
Although many people know that what he said is not credible and that he was just joking, people can't help but be suspicious.
after all.
That's a martial god.
A realm that so many people dream of, the pinnacle of this world.
Whether it's status, strength, or lifespan, they are beings that countless people aspire to.
If Qi Gan and Shen Tu Nan could betray their masters, why can't Lu Tao?
General Wei frowned upon hearing this.
The Ancient Barbarian Kingdom could make promises to Lu Tao at will, since they were all false and no one in the Ancient Barbarian Kingdom would take them seriously.
But he dared not. If he promised Lu Tao the position of national advisor or the resources of the Martial God, then the Great Gan Kingdom would have to fulfill those promises, otherwise it would chill the hearts of the people of the Great Gan Kingdom.
Although Lu Tao has made a great contribution this time, he should not be the one to give any reward.
Therefore, General Wei was somewhat annoyed at this moment.
He was choosing his words, preparing to say something.
Lu Tao chuckled and said, "Sure, but I need to see your sincerity first."
"Lu Tao..."
General Wei and Kong Hao, among others, were immediately alarmed, fearing that Lu Tao might actually defect to the Ancient Barbarian Kingdom.
"Oh? What sincerity do you mean?" General Du looked at Lu Tao with great interest.
Lu Tao smiled and said, "It's nothing. All you need to do is hand over Qi Gan and Shen Tu Nan to me, General. What do you think?"
General Du paused upon hearing this, his smile freezing on his face.
General Wei, Kong Hao, and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and even wanted to laugh.
Qi Gan and Shen Tu Nan felt a sudden tightness in their chests.
General Du's face turned cold, and he said in a deep voice, "Qi and Gan have made great contributions to our Ancient Barbarian Kingdom. How can our Ancient Barbarian Kingdom do such a thing as crossing the river and then burning the bridge?"
"Two mere late-stage Divine Platform cultivators are enough to make General Du reluctant to part with them, let alone a Martial God."
Lu Tao shook his head in disappointment and said, "It seems General Du has no sincerity at all. Let's stop joking; it will only make people laugh."
As soon as he finished speaking, the other powerful figures from the Great Gan Kingdom all tacitly revealed mocking smiles as they looked at General Du.
General Du's chest heaved with anger.
The original intention was to annoy Da Gan Guo, but Lu Tao easily defused the situation.
Lu Tao not only turned the tide of the battle, but also put Lu Tao at a disadvantage in their current verbal exchanges.
You could say that.
In this battle, the ancient barbarian kingdom was completely defeated by Lu Tao.
"Enjoy your last moments, going all out isn't so safe."
General Du stared intently at Lu Tao for a moment, then left after saying only one sentence.
