"...Does the State of Yan, located in the capital of our State of Wei, also possess such capabilities?"
Zhou Li was stunned for a moment before blurting out.
"Both Wanbaoge and Tianjige are under the jurisdiction of my Yan Kingdom."
Chu Batian said calmly.
"..."
Zhou Li's face showed shock, and his heart was filled with turmoil. This was far more shocking than when Chu Batian killed Lu Tiansheng, an elder of the Taiyi Sect!
The names of Wanbaoge and Tianjige are known to everyone in the entire Burial Ground of Immortals.
Both of these are forces that have been passed down for thousands of years, and they possess immense power in every mortal dynasty.
"Why would General Chu tell such a secret to a defeated general like me? Aren't you afraid I'll leak this information?"
Zhou Li was silent for a moment, then spoke with a serious expression.
He knew very well that this was an absolutely deadly secret of the Yan Kingdom.
Once this news leaks out, countless sects will likely be filled with unease.
It is highly likely that the nine holy lands will join forces to suppress the Yan Kingdom.
The threat posed by the Yan Kingdom to the Nine Holy Lands will far exceed that of demonic sects like the Blood Demon Sect. This is a dynasty whose destiny will directly shake the Nine Holy Lands' dominance in the Burial Land of Immortals.
Once the Yan Kingdom truly becomes powerful, it won't just shake the ruling position of the Nine Holy Lands, but it will be a question of whether the Nine Holy Lands can even exist!
"Because I trust General Zhou Li's character."
"I am even more convinced that General Zhou Li will definitely join our Yan Kingdom."
"Only in our Yan Kingdom can General Zhou Li be a true military god with dignity!"
Chu Batian said firmly.
Zhou Li took a deep breath to calm the turmoil in his heart, then bowed to Chu Batian and said, "Zhou Li greets the General!"
"No, General Zhou Li, this is unacceptable."
Chu Batian quickly helped Zhou Li up and said urgently, "General Zhou Li has joined our Yan Kingdom. From now on, we will be Yan Kingdom generals serving in the same palace."
"General Zhou Li, aren't you making me feel incredibly ashamed?"
Zhou Li then stopped bowing. He hesitated for a moment and said, "General Chu, many of the million-strong army of Wei were troops I commanded when I was in Wei."
Even if they weren't my troops before, my prestige in the military can still help our Yan state to incorporate them.
Do you need my help to recruit a million-strong army?
"With General Zhou Li's help, it would be even better."
Chu Batian's face lit up with surprise, and he cupped his hands to Zhou Li, saying, "Thank you for your trouble, General Zhou Li."
Subduing Wei's million-strong army was of immense help to Yan, instantly adding a million soldiers to Yan's ranks.
The key is that this million-strong army of the State of Wei includes 300,000 troops from the State of Wei's capital garrison and 300,000 troops from the State of Wei's Dingyan Pass.
These 600,000 troops were the true elite of the nation's defense.
The remaining 400,000 troops were all elite soldiers assembled from the state of Wei.
Indeed, the formidable pass at the border between the Yan and Wei states is called Yuzhou Pass.
Yuzhou Pass was a formidable pass of the Yan state, and the Wei state naturally also had its own formidable pass to defend against the Yan state, namely Dingyan Pass.
"General Chu, you are too kind. Now that Zhou Li has joined the Yan state, this is Zhou Li's duty."
Zhou Li shook his head and said.
Chu Batian nodded and led Zhou Li toward General Yang Zhenhu, the garrison commander of Yuzhou Pass.
Yanjing City.
The Ninth Prince's Residence.
One after another, figures appeared outside the Ninth Prince's residence.
There were more than fifty people.
The weakest among them is a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, and there are seven at the Divine Transformation Realm.
The most powerful figure in the Changhe Sect, Master Changhe, has already reached the peak of the eighth level of the Nascent Soul Realm.
"Master Changhe, shouldn't we make our move?"
A cultivator at the seventh level of the Nascent Soul Realm, seeing that it was getting dark, asked Master Changhe.
All eyes turned to Master Changhe.
"Let's get started!"
"Li Jing, the ninth prince of Yan, would never have imagined that the attack by Wei's million-strong army was merely a bait."
"Now his attention, and even the attention of Yan Changqing, the Left Chancellor of Yan, are definitely focused on Yuzhou Pass of Yan."
"Now is the perfect time for us to make our move!"
"Everyone, hold back! Once we spot Li Jing, we'll all join forces to kill him!"
"As for the people from the Ninth Prince's residence in Yan, we don't need to pay them any attention!"
Master Changhe nodded slightly and spoke in a deep and powerful voice.
"clear!"
Everyone nodded in agreement; this was a plan that had been set from the beginning.
"kill!"
With a wave of his right hand, Master Changhe shot towards the Ninth Prince's residence like a thunderbolt.
Dozens of cultivators at the Nascent Soul Realm, and even the Transformation God Realm, burst forth with astonishing speed and entered the Ninth Prince's residence.
only!
When Master Changhe and the others entered the Ninth Prince's residence, they found themselves seemingly trapped in a formation. They could only see themselves, and the scenery didn't resemble a prince's residence at all, but rather a desolate wilderness.
"You've finally arrived!"
A calm and even voice rang in Changhe Zhenren's ears.
However, the sound of this voice caused a look of horror to appear on the faces of Master Changhe and the others.
Even Changhe Zhenren, a peak eighth-level Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, couldn't find the source of the voice; it seemed to come from all directions at the same time.
"Playing tricks!"
"Do you think this one formation can trap us?"
A cold glint flashed in Changhe Zhenren's eyes. He clenched his right hand, and a bright silver spear appeared in his palm. He said with a chilling aura, "Changhe sweeps across the nine heavens!"
After saying that, the bright silver spear in his hand shot out in one direction like a long river.
It seemed as if it could pierce through the entire world.
He intends to break the formation directly with his overwhelming strength!
Even within sects, those who understand formations are extremely rare.
Therefore, even cultivators with profound cultivation levels like Changhe Zhenren do not actually understand formations, and they cannot see the true nature of the formation in the Ninth Prince's residence. The only way to break the formation is to use force!
Master Changhe did not believe that Li Jing not only possessed astonishing martial arts talent, but also astonishing array formation talent.
Even though his talent in formations is no less than his talent in martial arts.
Having cultivated martial arts to the Nascent Soul Realm, Li Jing certainly wouldn't have the time or energy to waste on array research.
boom!
A deafening roar rang in everyone's ears.
However, Master Changhe's spear strike did not shake the formation at all, let alone break it by force.
"..."
Dozens of sect cultivators watched this scene in disbelief. They thought that Master Changhe would be able to break the formation with a single spear thrust, but the formation didn't even tremble. Was this formation really that powerful?
