864 The magic circle opens, and five blessings arrive.
Only by understanding and integrating into the world can we gain a clearer understanding and make more thorough changes. The road ahead is long and arduous, but I will continue to explore and seek the truth.
He Chen nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping the distance. He asked softly, "Which ones?"
Captain Guan respectfully replied, "My lord, in Nanhe Prefecture, the Tian family, the Yu family, and the Cheng family are the three major families that maintain control of Dalong Prefecture and the surrounding counties. Their main fighting force is concentrated in Nanhe Prefecture."
Furthermore, all the various gangs, large and small, in the city are either supported by these major families or have intricate connections with them.
The ancestors of the Cheng family were reincarnated in the City God Temple. However, the Cheng family's methods became even more ruthless during this period, collecting taxes again and again.
Some time ago, taxes were levied for the next three years—spring taxes and autumn taxes—and those who could not pay were all arrested and exiled to the Cheng family's private estate, reduced to slavery.
His soft words were indeed filled with murderous intent, without the slightest attempt to conceal it.
Holding two tiger-slaying hammers, he gritted his teeth, his killing intent palpable. He wished he could immediately raise his blade and wipe out this gang of scoundrels and rogues.
"Alright, get ready. I'll oversee things." He Chen said softly.
"Yes, sir," Captain Guan replied immediately.
Turning around, they quickly made arrangements, and the several martial kings quickly integrated into several teams, splitting into five groups. The Cheng family, the Tian family, and the Yu family each had one group, while the other two groups were specifically tasked with encircling and annihilating various gangs, leaving no one alive!
Today, I'm going to forge the path I want.
The speed was incredibly fast. Two quarters of an hour later, the city seemed to have fallen silent, as if frightened by the sound of the five thousand soldiers.
On the city wall, Captain Cheng of the Cheng family looked nervous as he looked at the figure that the many soldiers had just bowed to. He was young and extremely handsome, with an aura that could be described as ordinary, yet at this moment he made people uneasy.
Commander Cheng quickly ordered the five thousand soldiers of Nanhe Prefecture to strengthen their defenses. Among these five thousand soldiers were five hundred elites, all of whom were fifth-level experts and the foundation of the Cheng family. Today, for the sake of the Cheng family's reputation, all the elites were deployed.
Lieutenant Cheng's face was icy as he whispered, "Fight to the death! Do not retreat. Each enemy killed will be rewarded with two taels of gold. The one who kills the most enemies will be rewarded with an additional hundred taels of gold, a high-level martial arts manual, a suit of armor, and ten beauties."
Anyone who dares to escape will have their entire family wiped out, leaving no one alive.
"Yes, sir." The servant quickly relayed the message. Upon hearing this, the soldiers erupted in uproar.
"Kill the enemy and you'll get beautiful women. Kill the enemy and you'll get beautiful women." Money and beautiful women instantly ignited the soldiers' excitement.
He Chen stood in mid-air and quickly entered the formation, activating the Five Blessings Formation, which consumed 50,000 killing points.
Instantly, all the soldiers, having achieved two kills in one strike, saw their comprehension increase by 10%, their constitution by 10%, their fortune by 10%, and their strength by 20%.
A sudden force blessed everyone.
In an instant, the soldiers felt their blood and qi surge, like a river bursting its banks, surging and transforming into a tangible torrent of energy. Ripples spread through the air, shaking the surrounding world.
The power of qi and blood condensed and took shape, transforming into majestic dragon and tiger shadows that surrounded the soldiers, roaring and howling, shaking the void as if dragons and tigers had truly descended upon the world, wanting to tear the sky apart and devour everything.
The shadows of dragons and tigers were incredibly lifelike; the roars of dragons and the howls of tigers intertwined, echoing through the heavens. Within the battle formation, every soldier seemed possessed by a war god, radiating dazzling light and becoming invincible.
"Invincible! Invincible!" The voice pierced the sky, exploding like a thunderclap from the heavens, instantly tearing the clouds apart and echoing throughout the world for a long time.
Like a bolt from the blue, in Nanhe City, the gang thug who had just picked up his thin knife to kill the rebellious man was so terrified that he wet himself and dropped the knife with a clatter. He immediately turned tail and ran.
It seemed as if an invisible force was at play, the sound transforming into tangible sound waves, carrying an overwhelming power that distorted the void and caused the stars to sway.
Suddenly, sand and stones flew all around, carrying yellow sand and flying vegetation, which condensed in the air into countless extremely sharp blade storms, howling and cutting through the air, invincible.
The sky and earth changed color, the sun and moon lost their light, and the whole world seemed to be shrouded in this violent force.
He Chen stood there, his figure appearing and disappearing in the raging wind.
He Chen waved his arm lightly, as if he were just casually scattering a breeze, yet this action contained unimaginable power.
In an instant, the five thousand soldiers seemed to be lifted up by a mysterious force, their strength reaching their entire bodies, and they soared into the air, as if surrounded by invisible wings, all standing in mid-air.
Five thousand soldiers were arrayed in the air, their formations impeccable and their imposing presence overwhelming, as if they were truly celestial warriors descended from the heavens, clad in armor and wielding divine weapons.
His fanatical gaze, brimming with power, seemed capable of splitting mountains and cleaving rivers; the mere city walls and enemies before him suddenly appeared insignificant.
At this moment, all the soldiers stood in mid-air, their blood and energy soaring to the heavens, amidst the sea of clouds and yellow sand. They were like immortals, transcendent and otherworldly, living as long as heaven and earth, shining as brightly as the sun and moon.
"Kill!" He Chen roared.
"Kill! Kill!" The deafening shouts of killing erupted and surged towards the city walls.
As if heavenly soldiers and generals had descended from the sky, the Cheng family soldiers guarding the city walls were immediately terrified, their hearts pounding with fear. Some of them even sat down on the ground with a thud, their weapons falling to the ground with a clang.
Five thousand soldiers charged forward, leaping through the air like a raging torrent, their spears gleaming coldly as they pierced the sky.
During the charge, every soldier seemed to transform into a war god, determined to slay the enemy before them.
Like a landslide and a tsunami, wherever it passed, the enemy was mercilessly crushed.
Nearly five thousand spears, like five thousand silver lightning bolts!
The spear tip pierced through the armor and into the flesh, spraying out vivid blood blossoms that filled the air!
Like spraying blood mist, a thick stench of blood filled the air, and wails and screams rose and fell, intertwined with the roar of clashing weapons.
The moment they clashed, blood stained their battle robes and the ground beneath their feet. Like felled ears of wheat, they fell one by one. The spear, like the scythe of death, relentlessly reaped the lives of their enemies.
Captain Guan's eyes were fierce, and he had already locked onto Captain Cheng. He held two tiger-slaying hammers in his hands, and the sound of tiger roars echoed from the hammers, as if they were excited by their master's killing intent.
Facing Captain Cheng, Captain Guan smiled cruelly and moved with lightning speed, taking the lead without any hesitation!
With his legs slightly bent, he suddenly exerted force and charged towards Captain Cheng like an arrow released from a bow. The tiger-slaying hammers in his hands drew tiger roars in the air, and their oppressive power spread out.
