Imperial Cultivation-Chapter 329 - 326: Success

Bai Ningyu listened from the side, unable to stop grinning.

Chu Zhiyuan explained tirelessly, over and over again, until everyone understood clearly.

This patience was truly admirable to him.

However, he thought it was unnecessary; as long as the leaders of the larger teams and small squads understood, they could act on order when the time came.

Spending so much time on these explanations was a waste compared to practicing the array formations.

If the formations were more practiced, their power would be stronger during battles, which was truly important.

But Chu Zhiyuan was the General, and as an uncle, he was just an assistant, unable to go against him.

Though he did try to speak up, it was of no use.

By the time Chu Zhiyuan finished explaining thoroughly, making sure everyone understood, it was already midnight.

Chu Zhiyuan raised his voice, "No need to wait for tomorrow, we set off tonight. Rest on the ship, and take action at dawn; early morning is the most advantageous for action."

Everyone responded with a resounding agreement.

They divided into three ships.

Under the moonlight, the three ships first sailed northward, took a big turn, and then headed towards Nanyun Island.

Chu Zhiyuan slipped soundlessly into the water, with the Water Repelling Pearl naturally forming a dry area.

He circled around the three ships twice underwater.

Indeed, he found a tail.

Two small boats were following them.

Small boats at a considerable distance, making them difficult to detect in the dark night.

In the sky, two golden eagles were circling.

Chu Zhiyuan frowned; after all, there were spies following their group.

Two flying knives silently pierced their hearts, killing them instantly.

He looked up at the two golden eagles.

Under the warm moonlight, they glided freely, exuding a sense of ease and leisure.

From such a distance, there was no way to deal with them unless they could be lured down.

However, these golden eagles had been trained, and unless their master commanded, they would never land easily and even if they did, it would be at the peak of steep high mountains.

Chu Zhiyuan set aside his killing intent and continued to circle around the three ships, ensuring there were no surprises.

The sea in this world was indeed different from the sea in the Secret Land.

He felt no threats, moving unimpeded, yet unfortunately, it also lost a lot of excitement.

In the sea of the Secret Land, there was a peculiar sense of thrill and anticipation.

There was always a feeling of gaining something, an unexpected surprise.

——

He reached a dock a step ahead, dealing with a few guards and over a dozen experts there.

This was a location he had scouted in advance, the most suitable place to dock, closest to a military camp.

He couldn’t handle an entire military camp, but taking care of over a dozen people on night shift at the dock was easy enough.

The three ships docked silently, and the Phoenix Camp soldiers, donned in Da Lie Armor, disembarked quietly.

They all knew what was going on, so they were not concerned about the unfamiliar surroundings.

Under the cover of night, they quietly left the dock, proceeding serenely.

Even if they encountered someone halfway, seeing the Da Lie Armor, they would just assume them to be Da Lie soldiers, with nobody suspecting a thing or reporting it.

They quietly arrived outside the first military camp.

Chu Zhiyuan was at the forefront, leading by example.

The sentries at the military camp were initially alert, but upon seeing their armor, they relaxed, assuming them to be fellow soldiers who had just arrived late.

Indeed, lately, batches of elite soldiers had been drawn from various parts of Da Lie, sometimes numbering in the hundreds, sometimes thousands, even thousands upon thousands, without end.

Chu Zhiyuan’s Insight noticed everything, strands of white light flew from his sleeve, silently eliminating all sentries, covert or overt.

He gestured with a wave, and Guo Chi led four others to quietly open the camp gate.

The night was like water, and the Phoenix Camp soldiers could see their surroundings clearly.

After entering the camp, eighteen smaller teams formed a larger unit, dividing into ten directions, each attacking according to the pre-arranged plan.

Chu Zhiyuan and Bai Ningyu floated towards the central tent, with the flying knives entering ahead of them.

By the time they entered the central tent, six middle-aged men and four young men were already lying inside.

Bai Ningyu gained a deeper understanding of Chu Zhiyuan’s flying knives.

In Yujing City, Chu Zhiyuan’s flying knives were reputed to possess an enigmatic, supernatural power.

But hearing is nothing compared to seeing with one’s own eyes.

After witnessing Chu Zhiyuan’s flying knives firsthand, he felt that this reputation did not do justice to the knives’ power.

Amazing and miraculous, such words best described his flying knives.

Zou Fang and Guo Chi’s team continuously retrieved the flying knives.

Chu Zhiyuan exited the main tent: "General Bai, you stay behind to sort things out, take anything useful. I’ll go outside to have a look."

"Understood." Bai Ningyu replied solemnly with a fist salute.

He was thoroughly impressed by his nephew before him.

Chu Zhiyuan stood on the high platform of the military camp’s martial field, his Super Sense encompassing the entire camp.

Under the Insight, the entire camp was vividly displayed in his mind, all the fighting clear before his eyes.

He nodded in satisfaction.

Informing the soldiers in advance indeed worked well.

They understood everything in their hearts, brimming with confidence, so they acted neither hastily nor slowly, advancing smoothly and fighting steadily.

Chu Zhiyuan was quite surprised not to find a Great Grandmaster in the camp, only six Perfect Realms of Grandmasters.

After the flying knives transformed into Glazed Glass Blades, their power increased, overpowering Grandmaster Perfection without them even realizing before being killed silently.

He felt a real sense of injustice for these Grandmasters.

He stood with folded arms on the martial field’s high platform, moonlight like water, falling on the armor and helmets.

With his Insight spreading around, his thoughts could split into countless parts, covering every small team’s situation.

Injuries would prompt Chu Zhiyuan’s flying knives to arrive in time.

Any detected signals about to be sent would see a flying knife executed them swiftly.

From noise to silence, it only took an hour.

As the entire military camp perished, not a single distress signal was sent out.

Over a thousand Phoenix Camp soldiers experienced no casualties.

Over a thousand soldiers gathered at the martial field, surrounding the high platform and looking up at him.

Their gazes were fervent.

They had almost all seen the timely appearance of the flying knives.

Either because a signal was about to be sent, and they could not stop it in time.

Or the enemy suddenly executed a self-destructive move, and they couldn’t stop it in time.

Or when an error in the Phoenix Seeking Phoenix Formation resulted in someone being injured.

At the most critical moments, his flying knives would always appear, eliminating the enemy and resolving the issue.

Without the timely appearance of these flying knives, such a brilliant outcome would not have been possible.

Chu Zhiyuan stood on the high platform, his eyes sweeping over everyone like cold, piercing lightning.

They felt themselves illuminated by his gaze, instantly standing straighter, their spirits intensified.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded in satisfaction, "With one against eight, a thousand men annihilated eight thousand with no losses, this achievement is enough to make you famous worldwide."

Everyone’s eyes were bright with excitement they could hardly contain.

Chu Zhiyuan said, "But this is not the end, there are still three camps, three sets of eight thousand we need to resolve."

Everyone stood solemnly. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

Chu Zhiyuan said in a deep voice, "Since we can deal with one lot of eight thousand, we don’t need to fear the remaining three lots of eight thousand, you know their real strengths, do you not?"

"Yes." Everyone responded resoundingly.

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and laughed, "This is Da Lie’s elite, and it is nothing!"

Everyone laughed heartily.

They all felt the same: Da Lie’s elite, nothing more!

Chu Zhiyuan said, "We still have to rely on the formations, combining all our strength, fighting as one, against eight, no matter how useless they are, it’s still quite troublesome."

Everyone nodded one after another.

"The next step is to follow the example, what I wanted to say has been clearly stated, is there anyone still unclear?"

Chu Zhiyuan asked aloud.

The military craftsmen of the Da Lie Dynasty were extremely inflexible, not wanting to make mistakes, so all four military camps were practically stamped from the same mold.

The military strength was almost the same.

Chu Zhiyuan said, "Rest for an hour, review your mistakes, think about how to improve, after an hour, we take down another military camp!"

"Understood!" Everyone responded in unison.

They all sat on the ground, beginning to discuss the prior battle, identifying any minor mistakes made by their team.

Testing training in actual combat, improving training through actual combat, yielded the best results.

After this battle, they felt their mastery of the Phoenix Seeking Phoenix Formation advanced rapidly, overstepping a big step.

Chu Zhiyuan took the time while they rested to command Guo Chi and his team to carry things outside.

The treasures within the military camp, along with some books and confidential letters, were all packed and loaded onto the ship.

...

By dawn, the Phoenix Camp soldiers were exhausted, each carrying wounds, staggering back onto the ships.

Under the amazed gaze of people on Nanyun Island, they hoisted sails and set off, arriving with three ships, returning with twelve.

The original warships of the Nanyun Island camp were all taken by them.

After killing a few people, all the shipmen and soldiers aboard obediently steered the ships.
