This was the realm of spirits.

Neither was prepared to give an inch to the other. A battle among soldiers numbering close to two hundred thousand was on the verge of breaking out. Even the Lord of Darkriver, Sha Xiangzu couldn’t help but find his forehead percolating with cold sweat.

He obviously knew the command he needed to give, but he still hesitated.

Despite all that, he still managed to pull himself together seconds later, and he looked straight into Qin Ye’s eyes as he bellowed with ferocity, “Inform the Alliance of Darkness immediately!! Tell them that an army of Yin soldiers is closing in on them!! And the strength of the army is far beyond that which had swept through Valley County earlier--...”

But before he could even finish speaking, terrifying flares of netherflame immediately shot into the sky all around the military garrison. It was ostensibly a warning that escape was impossible.

“We’ll only be able to leave this place after the victor is clear. I’ve admittedly taken quite some time in order to prepare this technique. Fortunately, someone was sensible enough to help buy me some time. Otherwise… do you really think I’d have the patience to talk such nonsense with you?”

Damn it… DAMN IT!!!

“Dare not make a move?” Qin Ye smiled as he slowly raised his hand, “Then, why don’t we draw the curtains on this act summarily? I wouldn’t want to risk letting you escape alive by a stroke of luck.”

“Kill.”

Damn it!

He didn’t know. All he knew was that Kong Mo had on several occasions cautioned him against the armies of Hell. But do all these things really matter? I have an army of a hundred thousand Yin soldiers!

“Kill them all!” The green veil in the mobile residence fluttered wildly as Sha Xiangzu’s furious bellow echoed throughout the entire military garrison. If the approach of Qin Ye’s army of seventy thousand could already be described as the rivers rushing into the sea, then the charge of Sha Xiangzu’s army of a hundred thousand would be no different from a roaring avalanche from a towering mountain top. Both forces barrelled down straight towards each other and clashed right in the middle of the lands.

The vanguard of Hell’s forces were none other than the one thousand units of Black Armored Troops. They marched ahead of the rest of the army like indomitable gods of death, firmly putting a stop to the rush of Sha Xiangzu’s troops.

Sssss!!! Yaaaaaa!!! The one thousand units of Black Armored Troops were like an insurmountable mountain range to Sha Xiangzu’s troops. Conversely, Sha Xiangzu’s troops were like lamb to the slaughter to the devastating slashes of their long swords. Sha Xiangzu’s Yin soldiers screamed miserably as they were instantly cleaved into pieces, and their bodies promptly burnt up in a bright blaze of netherflames. They weren’t even able to slow down the march of Hell’s forces at all!

Whoosh!

Sha Xiangzu’s vanguard forces froze in fear in an instant, and their hands trembled softly. Soldiers weren’t supposed to know fear, but… they were truly terrified of what stood in front of them.

It was on a completely different level from the Yin spirits they were used to seeing!

Terrifying… Every single one of Sha Xiangzu’s Yin soldiers had the exact same thought on their mind in their final moments.

Arthis snickered, “What else did you think it would be? They don’t have a significant numerical advantage over us, so on what basis do you think they have to stop the march of our forces? Do you think the Umbral Mount Tai Alliance of Darkness has Oda Nobunaga or Yang Jiye training their Yin soldiers? You’ve got to realize that your army is trained by historically renowned generals. But what about theirs?”

Back in the mobile residence, Sha Xiangzu exclaimed hoarsely at the top of his voice, “How is this possible?!” This battle had only begun just ten minutes ago, and yet his own vanguard forces were already completely beaten down and routed, while his enemy’s forces were clearly still completely unharmed. The casualties on his side numbered well in the thousands!

Military formation!

That said, the Black Armored Troops were clearly on route to a slow death. They had already taken down thousands of Yin soldiers, but the damage accumulating on their armor was also getting more and more apparent. But just then, a loud war horn blared from deep within Hell’s forces. With a loud cry, the Black Armored Troops suddenly bellowed loudly, before unleashing a powerful slash with all of their might.

Retreated… These demon gods have finally retreated!

But their newfound excitement soon turned into abject despair.

Gulp… A young Yin soldier from Sha Xiangzu’s faction tightened the grip around his spear even as his scalp tingled softly.

They’re on a completely different level…

That said, such realization only lasted for a single moment.

A split second later, countless bowstrings twanged, and thousands of arrows pierced the skies, sending karmic fire crashing straight through the clouds before hurtling straight down onto the Yin spirits below!

A crimson flower of flame blossomed on the horizon, followed closely by karmic flames that appeared to have a life of their own. These flames homed madly into the nearby enemy Yin soldiers, causing everything they touched to instantly be reduced to ashes. But this time, rather than reducing the Yin spirits to netherflames that flew into the air, the spots of netherflames were instantly consumed by the devastating karmic fire, subjecting them to an eternity of burning agony.

Back in the mobile residence, the Lord of Darkriver found himself completely dumbfounded by what he was seeing.

He had never expected to be defeated so one-sidedly.!

He had only temporarily submitted to Kong Mo’s tutelage in order to learn more about his own potential. Admittedly, the strength of the Alliance of Darkness was undeniable. Kong Mo had many techniques up his sleeves, including various formations and arrays of all sorts. Unfortunately, Sha Xiangzu clearly wasn’t qualified to be privy to all these things!

That was only a mere ten thousand troops.

And it wasn’t only his expectations on the numbers. Hell’s forces had completely crushed his own troops on every single front, be it appearance, armaments and overall abilities!

“By Hell’s Dictum… All rabble shall disperse?” He finally spoke with great trembling as he swept a stiff gaze across the devastation on the battlefield.

How did things end up this way?!

In fact, there were seven unique energy signatures in this wave of energy, and he could tell that these were all locked directly onto him right now.

“How dare you!!” With a furious roar, the veil of the mobile residence fluttered, and Sha Xiangzu rushed straight out towards the source of these energies.

I’ll only be able to escape from this dastardly technique if I take down all the leaders of Hell’s forces!

This is the only chance I’ve got!
