Xing Tian escaped using the Earth Escape Technique. Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, a tearing pain suddenly arose in his soul.
Clearly, his soul had been severely burned by the Nirvana True Fire.
Next, he mustered his strength and flew back to the camp.
At this time, the allied forces, led by their deputy general, had completely annihilated the vanguard of the Yanhuang tribe and were cleaning up the battlefield.
After returning to the camp, he swayed and finally collapsed.
It wasn't until several days later that he woke up, and by then, news of his injury had reached the rear.
When Houtu learned of his injuries, she obtained several drops of the Three Lights Divine Water from Dijun and asked Gonggong to take the water to Xingtian.
Accompanying him were two demon saints, Guiche and Jiuying, as well as their demon army.
After Xing Tian consumed the Three Lights Divine Water and recuperated for some time, he finally recovered.
He then ordered the army to set off and meet the main force of the Yanhuang tribe...
Earlier, Long Yin and Chang Xian had also met Chi Songzi.
Upon learning that the vanguard army had been completely annihilated, Chishongzi was furious and immediately ordered the two men to be taken out and beheaded.
Yuan Huang quickly stepped forward to plead for the two.
Out of consideration for his reputation, Chisongzi finally spared their lives, but only after ordering them to be beaten with eighty strokes of the military rod did he let them go...
Next, Chisongzi led the main force forward and soon encountered the vanguard army led by Xingtian.
Both sides temporarily set up camp.
That night, Chishongzi was in the central command tent pondering the battle situation for the coming day.
Suddenly a soldier came in to report that several of the camp's flags had broken off for no apparent reason.
Chisongzi stepped out of the tent, looked up at the sky, and saw a bright moon and few stars in the sky, with thin clouds and no signs of an impending change in the weather.
He called the soldiers over and asked, "Was there a strong wind just now?"
"No!"
The soldier shook his head, the look of surprise still lingering on his face.
Clearly, the fact that the flagpole broke on its own without wind puzzled him.
"If that's the case, it's probably not a good omen..."
Chisongzi muttered something to himself, returned to his tent, took out several fragments of tortoise shells, and laid them out to cast a divination.
After he saw the divination result clearly, a cold smile appeared on his face, and he immediately summoned General Long Yin and others.
Then he gave his generals a long lecture before letting them leave.
Time quickly passed into the middle of the night.
The world was completely silent.
Suddenly, a large cloud drifted in from the sky, obscuring the round moon, which was shaped like a jade plate, and the sky darkened abruptly.
Just then, a group of people suddenly appeared outside the camp of the Yanhuang army, led by Xing Tian himself.
It turned out that he planned to sneak into the camp under the cover of night.
He first used his supernatural powers to summon a cloud to obscure the moonlight, and then, taking advantage of the darkness, led more than 10,000 elite troops to a spot not far from the Yanhuang camp.
Seeing that continuing forward might lead to discovery by the soldiers on night watch at the gate, he ordered the army to stop.
Then a man, enveloped in a gust of wind, rushed to the gate of the village and swung his axe, striking the gate fiercely.
With a loud bang.
The gate of the stockade was shattered into dust, and the men who had been hiding in the darkness immediately swarmed in and rushed into the stockade with him.
"Enemy attack!"
Upon seeing this, the Yanhuang soldiers on night watch shouted loudly, but Xing Tian and his men had already rushed in.
Xing Tian, carrying his axe, charged ahead, heading straight for the central command tent.
According to his plan, if they could take down the central command tent under cover of night, the entire camp would become even more chaotic, and they would be able to win in the chaos.
However, halfway there, he realized something was wrong.
As they charged forward, they encountered few obstacles along the way, and the surrounding area seemed unusually quiet.
Although he was somewhat reckless, he was not stupid; on the contrary, he was extremely perceptive of changes in the battlefield situation.
Once he realized something was wrong, he immediately stopped advancing and shouted to his men, "Retreat! Retreat immediately!"
However, it was too late for him to back out at that point.
Suddenly, the clouds overhead dispersed, and the bright moonlight shone down once more.
At the same time, countless torches suddenly lit up from all directions, illuminating the entire camp as bright as day, and shouts of battle followed.
Xing Tian had just led his men back a hundred paces when suddenly a flash of fire appeared ahead, and a group of people rushed out and blocked his way.
The one leading the group was Chang Xian.
At this moment, Chang Xian laughed loudly, "Xing Tian! You've fallen for my master's trick!"
"Hmph! You are nothing but a defeated opponent of mine, yet you dare to stand in my way."
"Those who block my way shall die!"
Xing Tian roared and charged towards Chang Xian, leading the charge.
The two instantly engaged in combat.
At the same time, countless troops emerged from all sides, surrounding the allied forces that had launched the night raid.
Faced with the overwhelming force of numerous soldiers, even though these allied troops were all elite, they could not hold out for long and were all surrounded and killed on the spot...
Gonggong, Guiche, and Jiuying, who had been observing from mid-air, saw the scene in the camp and all secretly realized something was wrong.
"We must get them out!"
As Gonggong spoke, his figure descended from the sky in a cloud of water vapor and rushed towards the camp.
Guiche and Jiuying exchanged a glance, then followed in a gust of demonic wind.
Just as they were about to enter the camp, a dazzling sword light ripped through the night sky and struck the three of them.
The three realized that the sword light was coming with great force, so they had no choice but to stop and use their spiritual treasures and supernatural powers to meet the sword light head-on.
Rumble!
Various colored lights lit up in mid-air, then collided and scattered in all directions.
The thick sword light also disintegrated.
Just as the aftershocks were about to hit the camp, a Kan-Gen-Kun flag suddenly rose from the ground. It swayed slightly in the face of the overwhelming aftershocks, instantly neutralizing them.
The one who brought out this treasure was none other than the commander-in-chief, Chisongzi.
He knew very well that if the aftershocks were allowed to reach the camp, the soldiers below would not be able to withstand them and might suffer heavy losses.
So he quickly summoned the Kan-Gen-Kun flag.
This treasure was given to him by Hu Le as a temporary protection when he led his troops into battle.
As for the sword light just now, it was also emitted by him.
Just as Gonggong and his two companions shattered the sword light, more than a dozen figures flew out of the camp, each enveloped in a ball of immortal light, and rushed towards the three.
These are all elders and priests from the Yanhuang tribe. They are here to face this situation.
Following Chisongzi's orders, they left their camp and surrounded Gonggong and his men, launching an attack without a word.
The two sides fought fiercely in the sky. Although Gonggong and his two companions were outnumbered, they did not suffer any major setbacks.
After seeing Xing Tian, incredibly fierce, leading some remnants of his army to break through the encirclement and leave the Yanhuang camp, the three of them also used their abilities to shake off the crowd and retreat...
