"This token..."
Gu Xuan gently stroked the token with his fingertips, then slowly raised his head. "It seems you've been preparing for this for a while?"
Seeing this, Mo Liqing simply put away his joking intentions and nodded.
"Brother, you truly have keen insight."
He turned his head, his gaze passing over the layers of tents, looking towards the distant city of Xiqi.
"Grand Tutor had long anticipated that once Jiang Ziya, that old fox, faced a life-or-death situation, he would abandon all pretense and seek help from the Jade Void Palace behind him."
Mo Liqing took a deep breath, his tone solemn:
"Among the third-generation disciples of the Chan Sect, only a handful were truly capable of turning the tide of battle on the battlefield."
"Among them, the most famous are Nezha from the Golden Light Cave of Qianyuan Mountain and Yang Jian from the Golden Glow Cave of Yuquan Mountain!"
Mentioning these two names, a hint of apprehension flashed in Mo Liqing's eyes.
"The Grand Tutor said that ordinary generals are simply not enough to deal with such an unparalleled genius."
Mo Liqing turned around, her gaze fixed intently on Gu Xuan, "Only an anomaly like you, breaking the shackles of bloodline..."
Only then will it be possible to fight those monstrous talents of the Chan Sect!
Gu Xuan listened quietly, his expression remaining unchanged.
But his movements as he played with the dark gold token paused for a moment.
A third prince who only cares about killing and not burying the dead.
Yang Erlang, who achieved physical immortality.
Grand Tutor Wen actually values his potential so much.
Seeing Gu Xuan pause slightly, Mo Liqing grinned.
"This Vanguard Token is now yours."
"In the future, when the two armies clash, apart from the four of us generals who will need to guard the central army formation..."
"As long as anyone from Xiqi dares to challenge you, you are free to go into battle at any time, without being subject to any military orders!"
Mo Liqing had just finished speaking.
"Report—!"
A scout, covered in yellow dust and with a command flag on his back, galloped over.
When he was still ten feet away from the two, he dismounted and, using the momentum, slid down to his knees in front of Mo Liqing.
"Reporting to General Qi!"
"Xiqi City...Xiqi City has lowered its truce flag!"
"The city gates are wide open! The enemy army is already arrayed outside the city, and some soldiers have come out to form ranks!"
Upon hearing this news, Mo Liqing was taken aback.
Then he suddenly threw his head back and let out a deafening laugh.
"Hahahahaha!"
"Well done, Jiang Ziya! Just as the Grand Tutor predicted!"
"Once reinforcements arrived, this old fox couldn't contain himself any longer!"
"I wonder which third-generation disciple of the Chan Sect this old man invited."
Mo Liqing turned to look at Gu Xuan, his tiger-like eyes filled with anticipation.
Gu Xuan was slightly taken aback.
He slowly lowered his head and glanced at the dark gold token lying in his palm.
He then focused his divine sense inward and gently swept it over the "Hundred Generations True Spirit Diagram" in his sea of consciousness, which exuded an ancient aura.
[Ninety-ninth Incarnation: Unknown]
Current unlock progress: 36%
【...】
Gu Xuan knew he was no match for Nezha and Yang Jian.
But with the "Illustrated Chart of True Spirits Through the Ages" in existence, the future... is already near!
not to mention--
Other disciples of the Chan Sect from the third generation.
How could he possibly be his match?
I just don't know the true spirit of this disciple of the Chan Sect...
How much progress can be unlocked?
A bloodthirsty glint flashed in Gu Xuan's eyes.
He then calmly flipped his wrist and hung the vanguard token on his waist.
He reached out with his right hand and grasped the pitch-black Void-Breaking Spear.
He turned around slowly and walked towards the edge of the training ground.
"Now that we've taken the Grand Tutor as our vanguard..."
"Gu Xuan, you should take the lead."
......
Not long after.
Outside Xiqi City, a fierce wind whipped up yellow sand, obscuring the sky and the sun.
"Thump! Thump! Thump!"
From the direction of the Shang army camp, a hundred war drums made of Kui ox hide sounded simultaneously.
Amidst the deafening drumbeats, the Shang army's formation, resembling an iron Great Wall, slowly retreated to both sides like a tide.
A wide passage leads directly to the front lines.
"hiss--!"
It was accompanied by a violent roar that faintly carried the pressure of a true dragon.
A magnificent warhorse slowly emerged from the depths of the Shang army's formation.
The horse was over ten feet tall, its entire body covered with fine, translucent red scales.
Where the four hooves pounded the ground, faint crimson flames seemed to roll and burn in the soil.
Above the head...
It has two tender dragon horns that are only half an inch long.
And on the broad back of the dragon horse.
Gu Xuan was dressed in black armor, holding the Void-Breaking Spear in one hand.
He casually held the reins and rode his horse leisurely toward the city wall of Xiqi.
The shockwaves from the single shot that severed the earth, water, fire, and wind, and leveled the mountain peaks in the training ground were still deeply etched in the minds of every Shang soldier.
At this moment, a tall, spear-like figure appeared.
In the Shang army camp, whether they were veterans of countless battles or deputy generals, their eyes all blazed with an almost manic, fanatical fighting spirit.
"General Gu, the vanguard!"
"General Gu is mighty!!!"
The sound waves were like a tsunami, one after another, soaring straight into the sky.
The shockwave shattered the clouds above the battlefield, causing the earth to tremble violently.
......
however--
In stark contrast to the fervent morale of the Shang army was the spirit of Xiqi!
When they saw the black-armored youth riding a blood-red dragon horse and holding a long spear upside down slowly approaching.
"It's him..."
"It's that devil who beheaded Young General Huang Tianxiang!"
"The Nine Li Celestial Immortal who tore through the heavenly tribulation with his bare hands... he's actually out in battle again?!"
Many soldiers in the front row didn't even dare to look Gu Xuan in the eye; their legs trembled uncontrollably, and they instinctively backed away.
The long iron sword he gripped tightly trembled violently, clashing incessantly with the weapons of his comrades beside him.
The walls of Xiqi City.
Huang Feihu gripped the blue bricks tightly with both hands, his eyes bloodshot.
He gritted his teeth and stared intently at the figure below that he hated to the core.
And beside Huang Feihu.
Jiang Ziya was dressed in a Taoist robe, his brows furrowed into a deep frown.
He gripped the God-Slaying Whip tightly in one hand.
His other hand was hidden in the wide sleeve of his robe, constantly calculating the time.
He would occasionally look up at the sky outside the city, his expression revealing barely concealed anxiety.
......
"Da, da, da..."
The iron hooves of the East Sea Dragon Horse pounded the ground, producing a dull echo.
Gu Xuan rode his horse to the front of the two armies, raised his head slightly, and quietly looked towards the city wall.
next second.
Gu Xuan slowly raised his right arm.
The Void-Piercing Spear drew a cold arc in mid-air, its tip pointing towards the top of Xiqi City.
The voice, neither hurried nor slow, reached the ears of hundreds of thousands of soldiers on both sides with perfect clarity.
"The generals of Xiqi".
"Is there anyone who dares to leave the city and fight?"
A single, seemingly casual remark instantly roused the nightmare from the minds of everyone in Xiqi.
—A while ago, that terrifying figure who broke free of the shackles of the Heavenly Dao and tore through the tribulation clouds bare-chested!
Jiang Ziya took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the fear in his heart.
He stepped forward, forcing himself to maintain the dignity of a commander, and shouted.
"General Gu, you are so impressive..."
However, before Jiang Ziya could finish speaking...
A burst of blazing red light, carrying an intense heat that could scorch the heavens and boil the seas, suddenly tore through the clouds and descended from the sky!
"boom!"
The crimson light crashed violently onto the open ground in front of the two armies, producing a deafening roar.
A terrifying wave of high-temperature air swept across the entire area, instantly turning the yellow sand within a hundred feet radius into glass, and even the air itself was distorted by the intense heat.
Immediately afterwards, a crimson line of fire pierced straight through the center of the smoke and dust.
A boy who looked no more than seven or eight years old, with two topknots, slowly revealed himself.
He stood on a pair of fiery wheels burning fiercely, held a long spear that spewed forth Samadhi fire upside down in his hand, and wore a golden ring around his neck.
Although the boy still had a childish look in his eyes, he had red lips and white teeth.
But his eyes were filled with a sharp, murderous intent.
Nezha rode on his Wind Fire Wheels, hovering slightly in mid-air.
He first glanced at Jiang Ziya on the city wall of Xiqi.
Then he looked down at Gu Xuan on the dragon horse below.
After sensing the restrained celestial aura emanating from Gu Xuan.
Nezha raised an eyebrow, revealing an exaggerated expression of "sudden realization".
"Who do we have here?"
"Turns out she was just a little celestial being."
Nezha casually twirled his Fire-Tipped Spear, the tip pointing directly at Gu Xuan's face.
A sneer of utter contempt curled at the corner of his lips, and a fierce killing intent erupted in his eyes.
"Since when did a mere celestial being dare to challenge us?"
"It really is..."
"I know nothing...the vastness of heaven and earth!"
