Transformation Diagram: Starting as a Skinny Dog-Chapter 502 - 326: Declaration of War

Huainan Prefecture.

A colossal hall suspended in mid-air above Huainan Prefecture.

Looking down from the hall, the walls of Huainan Prefecture were covered with numerous corpses, some of Qi Cultivators, but mostly those of the Huainan Prefecture Guard Army.

The appearance of the Yuan Country’s Six Sects Alliance Army was incredibly bewildering.

A special Cave Heaven Magical Treasure was used as a war fortress, appearing directly above Ji Country’s Huainan Prefecture; the hall opened, and one hundred thousand Qi Cultivators surged forth.

No Prefecture City could withstand such a surprise attack.

Whether in numbers or the extraordinary assault, a small Prefecture City couldn’t possibly defend against it.

The six Sect Masters were stationed within the hall.

Listening to the continuous battle reports from below:

"Report, Six Sect Masters, all four gates of Huainan Prefecture have been seized, and three thousand Qi Cultivators have been dispatched to each, totaling twelve thousand Qi Cultivators, to reinforce the walls and set up formations."

This was the standard practice of the Yuan Country’s sect system for Qi Cultivators attacking a city.

After capturing a city, the first move is to reinforce it into the Qi Cultivators’ habitual ’City Defense Formation.’

This action not only consolidates the captured city, preventing enemy reclamation, but also serves as a temporary base and a springboard for continued territorial expansion.

"Report! The Martial Temple within Huainan Prefecture has been successfully destroyed; however, we didn’t manage to retain the ’Martial Arts Heaven and Earth Fragment’ within, which should have been immediately reclaimed by the higher-level Martial Temple in Ji Country."

Another piece of news.

"What a pity." The Demon Spirit Island Master sighed, saying, "The Heaven and Earth Fragments of Ji Country’s Martial Temple, each piece inherits from the Ancient Martial Temple, condensed from Martial Arts Destiny and Ancient Heaven and Earth Fragments, each fragment holds considerable fortune; the creation hidden within a Prefecture Level Martial Temple is even comparable to half the inheritance foundation of our sect."

"This was anticipated long before."

The Qingxiao Cave Master slowly spoke:

"If it were our Immortal Tao Heaven and Earth Fragment, it wouldn’t be easily taken by the enemy either; those fragments are the core secrets of the Immortal Temples, with mutual connection between temples, they can reclaim Qi Fortune and Heaven and Earth Fragments immediately; however, this is a good thing, it indicates that Ji Dynasty immediately abandoned Huainan Prefecture, allowing us to focus on mining the top-grade Spirit Vein beneath Huainan Prefecture."

The Female Celestial Master nodded: "Indeed, the Martial Temple Heaven and Earth is peculiar, there is a type of ’Transmission Stele’ within, capable of transporting people to another location; this isn’t Ji Country’s creation, but an inheritance from the Ancient Martial Temple, yet Ji Country has carried it out externally; when necessary, it can continuously transport vast armies to any Martial Temple by consuming significant Martial Arts Destiny."

"Now, with Huainan Prefecture’s Martial Temple destroyed, its Martial Arts Heaven and Earth extracted, it indicates that the Huainan Prefecture we seized won’t face the risk of Ji Country’s Martial Army suddenly descending from the skies."

Divine Weapon Descending from the Skies, they just used this tactic, traversing the sky by the hall, directly descending upon Huainan Prefecture, with the hall opening to release one hundred thousand Qi Cultivators.

But it’s not just them who can do this.

In Ancient Times, a ’Martial Country’ that inherited the Martial Temple also had a history of territorial expansion; every time they seized a city, they would immediately construct a Martial Temple locally and establish Martial Arts Heaven and Earth to connect to the rear, ensuring continuous transport of reinforcements and logistics to the front line.

This was the unique way of warfare for Martial Temple nations.

At this moment, not far from Huainan Prefecture, three thousand miles away in another Prefecture City, Golden Sun Prefecture’s Martial Temple.

Almost immediately after Huainan Prefecture’s Martial Destiny smoke was ignited and its Martial Arts Heaven and Earth reclaimed, within less than one hour, all officials of Golden Sun Prefecture, including the Sacrificial Officer within the Martial Temple, had assembled outside the Martial Temple.

They saw flashes of golden light from within the Golden Sun Martial Temple.

Followed by groups of soldiers, clad in Treasure Armor and wielding Famous Weapons, being transported from within the Martial Temple, exiting in droves, immediately heading to station at Golden Sun Prefecture’s four city gates.

Soon afterward, a majestic man riding an Ink Jade Lion emerged from the Martial Temple.

"It’s General Wei!" 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

The officials of Golden Sun Prefecture evidently recognized the majestic man, exclaiming in shock and showing great respect.

Wei Yanmen, riding on the Ink Jade Lion, wore a stern expression; after slowly stepping out, he took out a yellow scroll from his waist and said solemnly:

"There is an imperial decree, officials of Golden Sun Prefecture and scholars of the Martial Temple, hear the decree."

Instantly, all officials of Golden Sun Prefecture, including the Magistrate, Main Sacrificial Officer, and Assistant Generals, knelt down to receive the decree.

Wei Yanmen held the decree in both hands and said solemnly:

"By order of Emperor Wu Chengyun, the decree states:

The Yuan Dynasty barbarians, treacherous like wolves, have invaded our territory, occupying Huainan’s lands, a nation of unpardonable sins.

Appoint former Dragon Abyss Province Inspector Li Shentong as ’Yuan Yue Governor,’ granting command over the local military affairs of Dragon Abyss and Taiyue provinces.

Promote General Wei Yanmen to Ping Nan General, rank three, commanding eighty thousand troops, to advance north and resist Yuan.

With the aim to quickly reclaim the territory and annihilate the enemy invaders.

—— Daji Dynasty, Year Twenty, July Twenty-Third, at Yujing City’s Imperial Study"

After Wei Yanmen concluded the decree proclamation.

All officials of Golden Sun Prefecture shouted: "We receive the decree."

A tumult stirred within their hearts.

"Yuan Yue Governor! Ping Nan General!"
