Chapter 847: Chapter 653 Today Is Not the Same as the Past + Chapter 654 Racing Against Time_3
Under such circumstances.
Although attacking the enemy is not possible, defense is at its strongest. Even if the opponent’s divine skills appear overwhelmingly powerful, breaking through would still require considerable time.
As long as my life force is not completely depleted, I can at least keep this life intact.
Perhaps, the opponent cannot hold out for much longer either.
"Do you think I will play this slow game with you?"
Zhou Ping’an executed a divine skill, effortlessly crushing one of the Great Yu Eight Pillars Generals as if squeezing a tiny chick to death, feeling the sky vast and his chest free and exhilarated.
Seeing Yue Chengtian once again putting on a posture of lying flat and relying solely on defense, employing his defensive divine skill to its fullest extent, Zhou couldn’t help but laugh aloud.
"If it was a few days ago, I truly wouldn’t have had much of a solution for a quick victory. But today, let me test just how hard this so-called impenetrability truly is."
He took a deep breath.
The Nine Luminaries Stars within his body rotated once more, each extracting one-tenth of its starlight, transforming into a gray, misty divine power. The faint gleam of sword light flashed.
Silently and without trace, it swept across Yue Chengtian’s chest.
That azure crystalline light armor quivered slightly at first.
In the next moment, it dissolved into fine grains, falling like sand.
Like a shadow, the sword light tore open a massive ten-li-long scar in the sky, followed immediately by a reverberating thunder sound. A distant mountain peak crumbled heavily from its midsection, sending a cloud of dust billowing forth.
"Not much of a big deal after all..."
With this sword strike, the indescribable and overwhelming force instantly shredded Yue Chengtian into minuscule particles. Even the Killing Intent Divine Power he had sacrificially refined was dispersed back into raw energy.
Indeed, the so-called impenetrability is only valid within a certain level of strength.
When confronted with a stronger divine skill, it’s like a fortress built on a pile of sand—one push and it all crumbles.
"Surrender and you shall not be killed."
Zhou Ping’an raised his sword and shouted loudly.
From behind, fifty thousand troops surged forward like rolling thunder.
Meanwhile, on the Imperial Court’s side, two generals perished in an instant, plunging morale to freezing point. The leading officers could only wish their parents had given them fewer legs so they could flee faster, frantically turning their steeds away and escaping.
Not a single person dared regroup their forces or stand against the attack.
Mere moments before, they had assembled a grand formation to charge the enemy.
Now, amidst the chaos of human bodies colliding and people trampling over each other, escape became almost impossible. Within just a dozen breaths, the frontline cavalry of the Ping’an Army caught up, slaughtering the fleeing soldiers who screamed and wailed, while the panic led to countless trample deaths and injuries.
Such is the simplicity of war in this world.
Zhou Ping’an, however, did not chase after them.
He stood calmly, watching Bai He lead his troops in an orderly advance, capturing the Northern Garrison and two thousand Ming Guang Cavalry from the Imperial Army layer by layer.
"Once these elite forces of over a hundred thousand are absorbed and dispersed into various units, seasoned troops leading the new recruits, military discipline rigorously enforced, it won’t take long to forge an invincible army that can conquer cities and sweep across lands with unstoppable might."
Indeed, the greatest use of armies in this world is to conquer territories and maintain order.
Moreover, since the rank-and-file soldiers fight solely for food and sustenance, loyalty is not particularly rigid. They simply follow whoever wins, making them very manageable.
Last time, Zhou Ping’an had taken in a unit of the Imperial Army, and he was fully aware of how little integrity these low-ranking soldiers possessed. He had no concerns about integrating them.
After all, this is an ancient society where High-ranking Officials and wealthy households enjoy endless luxuries. One cannot expect the common soldiers to be willing to die alongside them.
What’s more, Zhou Ping’an’s Ping’an Army has always treated its soldiers and civilians with fairness and kindness—a reputation that is well-known.
"Three days to recuperate; the army shall mobilize, directly advancing on Funing..."
Zhou Ping’an pointed his long blade northward.
"There might be unrest at the Pei Family." Green Lady warned.
After the defeat of the Northern Garrison and the Imperial Army, the remaining resistance included the Cloud Water Sect’s various factions and the Pei Family.
As for the Cloud Water Sect, unless those Elders are utterly foolish, it’s unlikely any would still choose to blindly follow Zhang Yushu’s path to the end.
If such people exist, simply killing them directly would suffice and wouldn’t require much effort.
However, the Pei Family, as one of the Great Yu’s Five Surnames and Seven Hopes world family, possessing its own Heavenly Cave Blessed Land and once producing powerful figures who dominated the world, cannot be underestimated. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
"As for the Pei Family, I will go personally. Surrender or perish. I want Yunzhou under my control within half a month."
Zhou Ping’an stated firmly.
Time is of the essence now.
The Spirit Tide is nearing; half a month to take Yunzhou, and another half-month to attack Luozhou, directly targeting the Imperial City.
He must seize the opportunity before the Divine Martial emerges across the world.
To consolidate momentum and forge his Dharma form.
Awaiting the rise of the Spirit Tide, he will break through the Qi Refining Divine Martial Pass and comprehend the Power of Laws.
By then, with both Body Refinement and Qi Refinement at the Double Divine Martial Realm.
No matter which ancient monster he encounters, he will be able to contend with them.
