"I know, but even if he comes back, it won't change the outcome!"
"But I will fight for him to the very last moment."
...
On the icy peaks where the cold wind howls, unyielding figures stand atop the summit, their backs to the land of China, silently guarding the border mountains of China, becoming one with the icy peaks.
They are watching over something, and waiting for something.
When China faced an attack from foreign tribes, they were ordered to be removed from the military register in a time of crisis, and they all knew very well why.
"He's here!"
These three simple words instantly ignited the excitement of the seventy-two Chinese warriors.
It was impossible to conquer the Himalayas, which spanned tens of thousands of miles, in a single day. However, the seventy-two members of the Faith Army were among the best in the army, and their individual combat skills were exceptional. Therefore, the seventy-two men used every means at their disposal—attack, infiltration, and assassination—and finally reached the summit of the mountain range within a single day.
"Soldiers, those who are alive, please report your numbers."
Jiang Yuan's cold and unsympathetic words echoed through the team's communication stone.
"Soldier Thirty-One."
"Soldier Thirty-Five."
"Soldiers number forty-six."
"..."
"Soldier 931".
All seventy-two men reported their numbers without exception, and Jiang Yuan smiled upon hearing the result, saying, "As expected, the warriors of Tianfu are extraordinary."
"Soldier salutes his comrades!"
Although they were all excluded from Tianfu, they are still Chinese and fight for China.
This sentence brought them closer, but Jiang Yuan's next sentence made that distance grow even greater.
"Everyone, now please activate the array I placed in my storage ring, and use your lives to hold out for me for this last day."
After speaking, Jiang Yuan remained silent, waiting quietly for the others' reactions.
This was a difficult decision: was it worth risking one's life to defend a stranger's order? Jiang Yuan didn't know, but the soldiers proved with their actions whether it was worth it or not.
"Soldier Thirty-One, we swear to defend the honor of China to the death."
The thirty-first soldier who laid down the formation used a very sacred word: he wasn't risking his life for Jiang Yuan, but for China.
"We will defend the honor of China to the death."
People have been incorporating formations into the mountains, making them part of the Himalayas.
Bang, bang, bang...
Jiang Yuan smiled, sensing the pulse of the world vein. With the help of the array, the world vein beneath the Himalayas had officially connected with him.
The fortune of the Nine Provinces had already recognized him as its master when he was at the Wenshan Dao Sect, but because most of the fortune was suppressed by famous mountains and rivers, he was unable to fully absorb it. Now that he is here, the ownership of the fortune here is very clear; it belongs to him.
"The Himalayas!"
Looking up, Jiang Yuan saw the highest peak in the mountain range—Mount Everest, which was his goal. He wanted to complete the third level of the ultimate skill at the highest point of the Imperial Star.
"World Pulse, heed the command of the Battle Spirit, move with rhythm."
The Holy Demon Wings unfolded, causing the rocks and mountains beneath them to churn and release countless energies, the most concentrated of which was found in the area of the seventy-two members of the Faith Army.
The formations Jiang Yuan gave to the Belief Army were all part of a larger formation. If the formations they possessed were combined with those in Jiang Yuan's hands, they would form an exceptionally powerful formation.
The Heaven-Sealing and Earth-Locking Eight-Nine Mysterious Array—this is the full name of the great array. Its seventy-two key array eyes will lock down the entire space.
Of course, activating such a terrifying array also carries risks, which is why Jiang Yuan needed the Faith Army to abandon their lives. Here, anyone could die, and only those with the unwavering belief in death could complete the sealing of heaven and earth.
Ding, ding, spiritual energy points lit up continuously in the mountains, and the great formation had begun to take shape.
Once this grand formation is fully formed, the Brahma Dojo will definitely notice it, since the commotion of this magnitude has already resounded throughout most of the country, and even powerful figures can sense it.
Sure enough, the Brahma Dojo sensed the activation of the great formation. The Brahma Dojo was located near the Himalayas and had coveted the Chinese mountain range for many years, so it was the first to notice the movement.
At this moment, three powerful figures stood on a high platform within the Brahman sect, while the other disciples knelt or prostrated themselves below, clearly indicating their hierarchical status.
“Yesterday, a group of powerful figures from China entered the mountains. China is now at a critical juncture of life and death, and it will certainly not scatter its strength to various places in vain. Therefore, it is very likely that the God of Slaughter has come to the Himalayas!”
One of the three powerful figures, a man with five faces, three eyes, and four arms, spoke up.
"The alien races are constantly putting pressure on the Chinese people, and this person still dares to show up now. He is truly not afraid of death." The powerful man holding the sword opened his eyes, his gaze devoid of joy or sorrow.
“Whether he comes or not, we must send people. If he doesn’t come, we’ll take the mountain range. If he does come, that’s perfect, he can give the divine position to my Brahma Temple.” The last person said with murderous intent.
That's exactly what I was thinking!
