Chapter 641: Chapter 187: Iron Stream Flat Country!_2
But as the saying goes—this kind of poison smoke is sowhat malicious, and Ning Zhuo will not use it unless absolutely necessary, for the sake of his own image.
The Soul Capturing Shuttle, Four-direction Inverted Array Plate, Warm Heart Pendant, Myriad Phenona Cloud Seed… these are truly set aside, gathering dust.
As for treasures, the corpse of the Old Monster in Stone ranks first, with the Ghost Gate Escape Grass coming in second, and the rest need not be listed.
The total value of the Spirit Stones is still 13.8 million, calculated in Mid Grade Spirit Stones.
In the realm of Talisman, Magic Treasure Level Flowing Clouds and Streaming Water Talisman, Oil Slick and Smooth Talisman, those are the foundation of the main branch of the Ning Family.
Ning Zhuo also has two Substitute Talismans, one Protective Spirit Talisman, two Targeted Teleportation Talismans; one was used up in a previous ambush.
Almost all of these ca from Ning Jiufan.
It was in Fire Persimmon Immortal City that Ning Zhuo fleeced the wool off his own ancestor.
The Ning Family is renowned for Talisman Making; this is a reflection of the family’s foundations!
However, the aforentioned external objects are not the main part.
Ning Zhuo’s true focus has always been on chanical Artifacts.
The chanical Puppets at Golden Core Level include: Buddhist Doctor ng Yaoyin, Miss Rudie, Heavy Blood Ape·Dasheng, Shadow Blade·Night Tiger, Netherworld Envoy·Qi Bai—these five.
chanical Beasts include the Silent Thunderbird, Explosive Fla Monkey, Fire Bamboo Snake, and so on.
More than eight hundred chanical Puppets are in reserve to serve as soldiers.
chanical Weapons include the Hundred-Ard Arhat Armor, Iron Han Armor, Big Snake Scythe, Riveting Heavy Crossbow.
chanical Platforms include the Xuanyuan Nine Work Platform, Mysterious Palace Gear Platform, Gigantic Spirits Molding Platform.
chanical components like the chanical Ring, Weather Balloon·Ice Crystal Snow, Floating Ice Jade Hands, chanical Fist and Feet·Bitter Cold, Upward Downward Wishful Rope, Young Whisk Fishing Death Whip, Hangman’s Noose, Honest Man, Wind Fire Wheels, etc.
Upon evaluating these, even Ning Zhuo’s expression beca sowhat vacant.
“Unknowingly, I’ve accumulated so many treasures.”
“Once all are unleashed, my combat power will completely surpass nearly all the Golden Core Cultivators in the world; powerful enough to rival a Nascent Soul.”
“If combined with the Life Hanging Divine Power, Heroic Return Skill, and the bolstering of national and military power by Liangzhu Country… what would happen?”
“Hiss, I am so strong!”
Thinking this, Ning Zhuo’s nervousness and anxiety about the upcoming grand battle greatly diminished.
But then, with a change of thought, he adopted a cautious deanor.
“No, I must not be arrogant.”
“All this counts for nothing.”
“There are many Golden Core Cultivators stronger than I am. For example, Zhu Xuanji, or Linghu Jiu from the Ten Thousand dicine Sect?”
“I am just lucky to have had help from my mother, family mbers, my friends, and Boss Sun, which led to my modest achievents today.”
“My own efforts are there, but they are not the key.”
“What I mainly rely on is chanical Techniques.”
“It is the excellence of the school of chanical Techniques that integrates all the techniques of Cultivation, maximizes leverage, and exerts the greatest power.”
“The sages who invented chanical Techniques are truly incredible.”
“I am rely basking in the light of those venerable and capable ancestors.”
“I cannot be complacent, or blindly self-aggrandizing. I should continue learning from the excellent, doubling my efforts, working hard, and then working even harder!”
After a session of ntal fortification, Ning Zhuo’s face was calm, his eyes bright and spirited, and his heart once again filled with a strong longing for progress and self-improvent.
The following day.
After a day of rest, the entire army was spirited, well-equipped, and gathered beneath the Parade Platform.
The banners were fluttering, emitting an aura of solemnity.
Alone atop the Parade Platform, Du Tiechuan overlooked the army and began to rally the troops.
He spoke loudly and clearly, “Fellow soldiers.”
“Our Liangzhu Country is prosperous, our Monarch is sage, governing with skill, and peace reigns over the lands. Only in the Thousand Peak Forest does evil linger, a lawless land where demons loom, darkening the sky, bringing harm to the innocent.”
“Today, I, Du Tiechuan, by the Monarch’s command, lead the armies to subdue the Thousand Peak Forest. This campaign is not for personal gain, but for justice; not for fa and fortune, but for the common good. We shall bear loyalty and righteousness in mind, and bravery as our resolve, to drive out demons and purify evil mists!”
“The battle is imminent, and I wish to join you on the frontlines, vowing to slay demons to showcase our country’s might.”
“Today we must unite, avoid arrogance and impetuosity, and bravely forge ahead. Our blood shall stain the enemy’s ranks; our souls shall protect our land.”
“We shall greet the victory of this battle with the belief of certain triumph. Today we swear to eliminate demons, to bring peace to the land.”
“May our soldiers return triumphantly, celebrated far and wide. May our Liangzhu Country forever prosper, our Monarch always wise. Soldiers, follow in the charge, protect our lands, raise our country’s prestige!”
“Charge! For the glory of our Liangzhu Country! For the dignity of our Monarch! For the peace of our people! Fight ceaselessly, as victory shall ultimately be ours!!”
Military Art—galvanize the army’s resolve.
Military Art—boost the troops’ morale.
Military Art—don armor and wield sharp weapons!
In this mont, Du Tiechuan went all out, fully displaying his Divinity Transformation might.
Three Military Art techniques empowered the whole army with mighty force, causing all the soldiers to be stirred with high emotions and skyrocketing morale, loudly echoing Du Tiechuan’s call.
For a mont, the drill ground echoed with shouts as mighty as wind and thunder, overwhelming all other sounds of heaven and earth.
“The army’s morale is high, this battle in Thousand Peak Forest shall surely be ours!” Du Tiechuan was brimming with heroic spirit.
The next mont, he leaned slightly backward, took a deep breath, stirred his entire Mana, and fully activated the Dragon Shadow Nine Pillar Parade Platform.
The towering Parade Platform suddenly erupted in a blinding bright light, making the clear sky above pale in comparison.
Columns of intense light pierced straight into the heavens.
The ground trembled mightily, as a dragon’s phantom, stretching thousands of miles like a majestic river changing its course, shifted its magnificent body akin to a mountain range, pouring into the light columns of the Parade Platform.
Dragon Vein!
This was the Dragon Vein of Liangzhu Country.
The Dragon Soul Pearl on the Parade Platform was completely drained in just three breaths’ ti.
The unparalleled great power of the Dragon Vein infused into the Parade Platform caused profound cracks throughout, unable to withstand for long.
Suddenly, clouds of calamity ford in the sky, unleashing dozens of thunderbolts.
But every bolt of lightning was absorbed by the protective railings.
These railings, vast and thick, were made of Thunder Iron, capable of absorbing and storing thunder and lightning.
Ning Zhuo was filled with astonishnt: “Dragon Vein!”
“This is a major source of National Power.”
“Du Tiechuan harnessing the Dragon Vein Power is against the heavens, hence the formation of calamitous clouds and thunderbolts.”
“But they were perfectly endured by the Parade Platform!”
“What a grand gesture it is.”
Astral Winds swept across like tornadoes, enveloping the Parade Platform.
Du Tiechuan stood tall and unmoving, though the Finger Techniques he conjured trembled slightly, indicating that even for soone at the Transforming Spirit Level, mobilizing such an imnse external force was a difficult burden.
His finger techniques changed rapidly, thirty-three tis in succession, and then he chanted in a long sing-song voice: “Golden Spear and iron horse, the mountains and rivers in turmoil; rciless bloody battles, all enemies shall fall. Destroy!”
Hand Seal, Oral Seal, Heart Seal.
All three seals were deployed simultaneously.
Military Art—Iron Stream Flat Country!!!
The power of the Dragon Vein surged wildly, and the towering Parade Platform collapsed thunderously.
An endless force augnted the entire army.
Countless soldiers felt an imnse invisible pressure enveloping their bodies, many of their bones creaking, severe pain sweeping through them, leaving them with no choice but to grit their teeth and endure.
Layers of steel phantoms descended upon them, forming layer upon layer of humanoid phantoms, weapon phantoms, and mount phantoms.
The armor painted black as ink, reflecting the resolute faces of the soldiers.
Ning Zhuo, situated within, felt an overwhelming power fill his body, but with it ca the burden of hundreds of pounds weight, growing heavier by the mont.
Du Tiechuan leapt up, turning into a rainbow of light, descending from the sky, landing amidst the army.
Mounted on an iron-horned beast, he waved the Order Flag and cried out: “Advance, all forces, advance!”
His voice spread throughout the whole army.
The army began its gradual march.
The soldiers’ steps were heavy, and with each step, deep pits were left in the sturdy rocky ground.
Then, the soldiers’ pace started to quicken.
The entire army, like a primitive giant serpent, slowly gathering pace, becoming increasingly fierce!
Clad in heavy armor, the collision of armor pieces created an endless clanging of tal. The sound of mounts’ hooves stomping the ground, soldiers’ synchronized marching, the flapping of war banners—all these sounds combined into a tempestuous roar.
Whooosh! Whooosh! Whooosh!
The army’s phantoms began to flow, penetrating into every soldier, casting a blurry image on each of them.
An endless stream of shadows flowed beneath the feet of the whole army, forming a massive river.
The river lifted the heavily armored soldiers, transforming into a torrent of steel!
The torrent rolled on, vast and mighty, like a disaster sent from heaven, unstoppable as it rushed towards Thousand Peak Forest.
Forward! Forward!
All forces advance!
For a mont, the sky darkened as only the rushing sound of the Iron Stream echoed, shaking heaven and earth.
Approaching a mountain, the steel torrent didn’t slow for an instant but charged straight ahead.
Rumbling…
Mountains collapsed and disintegrated beneath the torrent, crushed into dust by the onrushing army!
Majestic is the heavy armored army!
Mighty is the Iron Stream Flat Country!
With Du Tiechuan commanding the Central Army, his face stern as iron, his heart surged: “Today, with this military art, I shall sweep away the demonic fog and reshape the mountains and rivers!”
