In the team.
Li Ming was dressed in a set of black armor, keeping a very low profile.
This outfit was a gift from Ye Sheng's good friend.
It combines defensive capabilities with stealth; although it may not look good, its quality is excellent.
Qi Ming, however, clearly did not think that way. He wore a set of golden armor, engraved with star-like patterns, and had a strange red sword at his waist. Combined with his handsome appearance, he looked incredibly imposing.
"That's really eye-catching...it would probably be the center of attention on the battlefield."
Li Ming was speechless.
Dressed so flamboyantly, anyone could tell who he was, but the other party probably didn't care. After all, the Qi family was the strongest force on the surface, so naturally they would attract everyone's attention.
Let's go.
Qi Ming shouted loudly and led the group to the front.
Her glamorous attire immediately attracted everyone's attention, filling many with inexplicable excitement.
I think Qi Ming is a bright and great person.
If he takes the lead, they might actually be able to seize the top-grade evil energy.
The crowd followed suit, leaving the high ground and heading towards the blood-red army below.
...
Deep within the army on this blood-red plain.
A burly man sat in the center, with two bodyguards behind him carrying a huge halberd.
Unlike other soldiers whose faces were blurred and whose bodies were composed of murderous blood energy, he looked no different from a normal person, except that there were blood-red lines on his skin, his muscles were like writhing dragons, and his black hair was disheveled, making him look like a giant.
Just by standing there, one can feel an endless killing intent emanating from him, his whole body filled with a domineering and fierce aura.
His gaze swept towards the martial artist in the distance, a slight smile playing on his lips:
"Are there more trial participants coming to their deaths?"
"Hopefully, this will bring me some enjoyment."
This man, who resembles a demon god, can be considered Xue Tianxing, the commander of the Blood Mountain Army, or he can not, since he is now merely a puppet possessing Xue Tianxing's memories.
The former Xue Tianxing had vanished along with Blood Maple City and Blood Mountain Army. However, as a fourth-grade Grandmaster, his resentment ran deep, so the powerful human beings made use of him, injecting his resentment and obsession into this body.
His purpose has changed from guarding the Great Zhou Dynasty to being one of the examiners of the Blood Killing Secret Realm, providing trials for the martial artists who enter.
Only the strong can possess the ultimate killing aura.
As a citizen of the Great Zhou, he naturally wouldn't hold back against these people from the Great Xuan.
Over the long years, even though he retained memories of his past life, he was almost completely devoid of emotion; only blood and battle excited him.
"Let me guess, which lucky person will arrive first?"
...
"This is the Blood Mountain Army?"
The group moved much closer together.
Only then did I truly feel its astonishing aura: blood-red, menacing armor, wielding swords, spears, and shields, with banners fluttering, as if that army that emerged from a sea of blood and mountains of corpses still existed in the world.
"It seems that the opposing commander still has control over this army."
Someone succinctly put it into words.
The nine thousand Blood Mountain soldiers clearly sensed the approach of the crowd, their eyes turning bloodshot, but they managed to restrain their impulses and did not descend into chaos.
Instead, they stayed put and remained there obediently.
It is important to understand that discipline is extremely important for an army.
The reason why Dao soldiers are so powerful is because they are extremely disciplined. Even if only one soldier remains in the battle, they will not retreat without the order of their commander.
In ordinary armies, if more than 10% are killed in battle, morale will likely plummet, and the army may face collapse.
"It seems that the plan to lure out a portion of the troops and launch a surprise attack on the commander-in-chief is no longer feasible."
Qi Ming's eyes flickered, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Clearly, breaking through the Blood Mountain Army to carry out the decapitation plan is not a simple matter.
The rest of the people were also unwilling to take the lead and were all waiting!
We're waiting for someone to make the first move.
Time passed slowly, but no one spoke.
Li Ming was happy to have some free time and was slacking off.
Qi Ming finally couldn't hold back any longer and said in a deep voice, "There's no use just waiting like this. We need to divide the responsibilities and attack together."
"How should the responsibilities be divided?"
Someone immediately asked.
After all, the strengths of the various groups involved are uneven.
The choice of position for charging into battle is also open to discussion.
"Each faction, take action on your own!"
"But since everyone's here, let's charge together. If anyone just wants to slack off and pick up the scraps, we'll all attack them together, shall we?"
Hearing this, no one objected and they all nodded.
"good!"
"It's all about skill. If anyone tries to take advantage of the situation, don't blame us for being impolite!"
Some even brandished knives in a show of force, looking fierce and menacing.
Then the various groups began searching for their positions, and with so many people involved, some conflicts naturally arose.
After some debate, they were eventually divided into roughly four teams.
After a moment's thought, Li Ming joined one of the teams.
However, in order not to attract Lin Xun's attention, he deliberately did not join the Qi family's group.
Instead, it was a team that was closer to them.
"kill!"
"Charge!"
With a series of roars, the four teams charged out like four arrows toward the Blood Mountain Army waiting in the plain not far away.
The warriors came with great force, but the Blood Mountain Army remained unmoved. Each soldier began to form a battle formation in an orderly manner, and the outer layer of the army formed dozens of small square formations.
"Waaaaah!"
As a bugle call resounded throughout the heavens and earth, every soldier's eyes filled with murderous intent, their bloodthirsty aura ignited, drawing the entire army together into a single force.
From afar, above the Blood Mountain Army, the blood energy and baleful aura transformed into a blood mist, obscuring the sky and the sun.
Even though they had lost their minds, the battle formation that the Blood Mountain Army instinctively formed was still extraordinary, and the power unleashed by nearly 10,000 people even surpassed that of the martial artists.
"kill!"
Shouts of battle echoed continuously, and the clang of metal clashing resounded incessantly.
The two sides clashed in close combat.
Although the martial arts teams fought individually.
However, its destructive power is extremely impressive.
"Die again, you son of a bitch!"
A martial artist at the Condensation Realm, brimming with murderous intent, charged forward, wielding a large axe and unleashing a furious slash that sent dozens of Blood Mountain soldiers in his path flying, their blood and energy dissipating.
In the blink of an eye, another small squad of Blood Mountain Army rushed forward. The loss of his comrades did not move him in the slightest. One by one, they brandished their blood-red spears and thrust forward.
Li Ming, standing in the crowd, looked at the scene before him and felt a mix of emotions.
He has experienced many life-or-death battles and witnessed many scenes.
But this scene on the battlefield truly shocked him.
Although the Blood Mountain Army was far less formidable than in their prime, they remained steadfast in their determination to fight to the death, their eyes filled with murderous intent!
"roar!"
Above the battlefield, shouts of battle, screams of agony, and roars of fury filled the air!
The more he fought, the more he felt something was wrong.
Although the Blood Mountain Army suffered repeated defeats, they remained orderly, killing one group only to have another replace them. After killing two groups, the previous group was resurrected again.
However, a martial artist's strength is ultimately limited. If they continue at this pace, they might not be able to break through much even after exhausting their true energy.
Since that's the case.
Then, kill!
Facing the Blood Mountain Army charging with spears, Li Ming swung his longsword, clearing out an entire area.
"kill!"
Facing the endless mountain of blood soldiers, Li Ming wielded his sword recklessly, holding nothing back, and gradually moved to the forefront of the crowd.
He noticed the surprised looks on the faces of those around him.
Li Ming disregarded everything.
It was as if nothing in the world could restrain him anymore; he no longer needed to fear anything or hide himself... He could simply kill.
"Martial arts is also the way of killing!"
"No wonder there are so many and so powerful martial saints during times of war!"
Although Li Ming was constantly killing, his eyes were incredibly clear.
If, amidst the chaos of war, one can carve out a bright and clear world, and carve out a glorious and prosperous era.
In that case, why can't he be called a martial saint?
Li Ming charged alone into the heart of the Blood Mountain Army, as if entering an empty field.
"Hahaha, that's more like it!"
Li Ming laughed loudly, his long sword unstoppable, like a grim reaper reaping lives, pressing forward step by step.
At this moment, he had gradually moved to the very front.
With each stroke of the blade, countless souls were reaped.
Meanwhile, casualties began to appear among the martial artists.
The deeper they go, the clearer they discover.
The Blood Mountain Army has become even stronger!
From overwhelming dominance to a more evenly matched contest!
As the advance slowed, more and more people were injured.
"Everyone, stop hiding your talents!"
"kill!"
With a roar from Qi Ming.
Many Golden Elixir masters also began to exert their power.
The innate true energy swept across the battlefield, clearing out the army within a radius of tens of meters.
You can vaguely see where the opposing commander is.
