Chapter 368: Blood!
At the border of Muping Kingdom, the huge Dragon Burial Valley was like a bottomless pit created by a meteor.
There were hundreds of tall mountains surrounding this valley, and there were boundless and lush huge trees in the valley.
The green trees outlined the shape of a dragon in the valley.
The Dragon Burial Valley was named after it.
At this moment, thirty kilometers west of the periphery of the Dragon Burial Valley, an army of hundreds of thousands of people was rapidly approaching.!!
This was an alliance army formed by Quanzhou’s Yinzhao Kingdom and the Green Cloud Kingdom. They were also here for the spirit stone mine in the Dragon Burial Valley.
The leaders were the two strongest Martial Gods of the two countries, Shen Chunhai and Dong Tai.
Shen Chunhai looked up at the mountains outside the Dragon Burial Valley and narrowed his eyes.
“If I’m not wrong, the army of Muping Kingdom is guarding those mountains.”
Dong Tai nodded. “Let the intelligence officer investigate the distribution of their troops before approaching.”
“Okay!”
Shen Chunhai immediately ordered someone to head to the Dragon Burial Valley to investigate the situation.
This time, their two countries had gathered their troops in the Dragon Burial Valley to get a share of the spoils.
According to the military strength of the two countries and the Muping Kingdom, they felt that occupying the Dragon Burial Valley wasn’t realistic.
However, this battle would definitely allow them to plunder a lot of high-grade spirit stones from the Dragon Burial Valley.
They were absolutely confident that they would definitely return with a full load.
Soon, the intelligence officer returned and reported that there were a total of five mountains outside the Dragon Burial Valley where the troops of the Muping Kingdom were stationed. The initial estimate was that there were about 300,000 troops.
Shen Chunhai revealed a smug expression. “300,000. It’s about as I guessed.”
Dong Tai laughed greedily. “It seems like we can snatch more high-grade spirit stones today!”
Their two countries had a total of 500,000 people. Although Muping Kingdom had the advantage of terrain, it couldn’t stop them from entering the Dragon Burial Valley.
Therefore, victory was already in sight!
At this moment, a general suddenly cried out in shock, “Marshal, look behind us!”
Shen Chunhai and Dong Tai hurriedly turned around.
Dust billowed in the distant sky as a majestic murderous aura assaulted their faces like a hurricane.
“It’s the Ten Nations Alliance!”
Shen Chunhai and Dong Tai were both veterans of the battlefield and recognized the terrifying army in the distance at a glance.
Coupled with the fact that this place wasn’t far from the Dragon Burial Valley, Shen Chunhai immediately determined the reason for the Ten Nations Alliance army’s arrival.
He hurriedly roared, “Listen to my orders and retreat at full speed!”
Dong Tai also ordered with a terrified expression, “Retreat quickly! We must maintain a safe distance from the ten-nation alliance army!”
At this moment, they were no longer in the mood to plunder the Dragon Burial Valley.
Because it seemed that the Ten Nations Alliance had also come because of the Dragon Burial Valley.
If they dared to compete with the Ten Nations Alliance for high-grade spirit stones, the outcome would be death.
Shen Chunhai and Dong Tai knew the principle of protecting themselves first. They immediately decided to give up on the Dragon Burial Valley and escape from the sight of the Ten Nations Alliance army!
In the distance, seeing Yinzhao Kingdom and the Green Cloud Kingdom’s army escape in a panic, Huo Qi, Wu Lingfeng, Sima Yan, and the others laughed wildly.
On the way, many troops who came to the Dragon Burial Valley were frightened away by them, making them feel invincible!
The Dragon Burial Valley wasn’t far away.
Huo Qi raised his Heaven Raising Saber. “Soldiers, listen up. Advance with all your might and take down the Dragon Burial Valley!”
“Yes!”
The three armies were excited and charged towards the Dragon Burial Valley with killing intent.
Soon, the ten-nation alliance army arrived at the border of the Dragon Burial Valley.
Huo Qi glanced at the many mountains in front of him and shouted,
“Lads of the Muping Kingdom, are you going to give the Dragon Burial Valley to us, or are you going to wait for us to beat you up until you kneel and beg for mercy?”
His voice was like defeaning and extremely arrogant.
The soldiers of Muping Kingdom on the mountain were all shocked and terrified.
They had long heard of the Ten Nations Alliance.
Now that the other party had gathered millions of troops to snatch the spirit stone mine, it was obvious that whoever dared to stop them would definitely die!
Looking at the aggressive Ten Nations Alliance army at the foot of the mountain, the deputy commander of the Muping Kingdom’s border defense, Ma Cheng, gritted his teeth and said,
“Damn it, I thought that Yinzhao Kingdom and the Green Cloud Kingdom already had a lot of troops. I didn’t expect the Ten Nations Alliance army to come!”
Commander He Jiangshan’s eyes were filled with anxiety.
He was originally prepared to resist Yinzhao Kingdom and the Green Cloud Kingdom. Unexpectedly, what really killed their way here was the terrifying Ten Nations Alliance!
Ma Cheng asked, “Commander, the enemy has ten times our strength and three Emperor Realm Marshals. Should we fight?”
He Jiangshan was silent for a moment. When he looked up, his gaze was extremely determined as he said word by word,
“Defend every inch of land and every life!”
“As border guards of the Muping Kingdom, we swore to protect our territory with our lives. We can’t be traitors!”
“Listen to my orders. Fight!!”
At the foot of the mountain, Huo Qi, Wu Lingfeng, Sima Yan, and the others revealed disdainful expressions when they saw the soldiers of the Muping Kingdom defending themselves.
“A bunch of useless people want to stop a chariot? They’re really courting death!”
Huo Qi raised his Heaven Raising Saber again and said in a thunderous voice,
“Kill!”
…
In the royal palace of Muping Kingdom.
Zhuang Zhiqiang hurried behind Yuan Shanhe and whispered,
“Your Majesty, Master Cao has already brought a new Dharma artifact.”
Yuan Shanhe glanced at Lin Xuan. Afraid of disturbing Lin Xuan and Xuan Zhu, he stood up and said, “I’ll go take a look.”
Soon, he walked out of the hall and saw an old man walking towards him.
This person was the famous refining master in Quanzhou, Cao Yang.
He established the largest refining sect in Quanzhou at the age of 300.
They accepted 200,000 disciples and enjoyed a supreme status in Quanzhou’s refining world.
Yuan Shanhe hurriedly bowed. “Greetings, Master Cao!”
Cao Yang was shocked. He wondered why Yuan Shanhe, the king of the country, specifically came outside the palace to see him.
Without thinking much, Cao Yang spread out his right hand and conjured a jade jar surrounded by mystic light.
“This jade jar is a high-grade Dharma treasure refined from the Nine Heavens Mystic Jade. It can be shrunk and expanded at will.”
“Your Majesty, if you use this treasure to store the tortoise, you can effectively stop it from causing trouble.”
“Thank you.” Yuan Shanhe hurriedly bowed and continued, “However, I’m lucky to have a treasure refined by the Consort. I can’t accept your Dharma treasure anymore, Master. Otherwise, it will be too wasteful!”
As he spoke, he even took out the Black Tortoise that Xuan You had returned to him.
Consort?
Cao Yang acutely captured this key information.
He hurriedly looked at the Black Tortoise.
There was a small circle of light green on the Black Tortoise’s neck.
This green light looked like a grass, but based on his years of experience in artifact refinement, this grass was a top-grade Dharma treasure.
Cao Yang couldn’t help but sigh with admiration. “To be able to refine such a top-grade Dharma treasure with an ordinary grass, the Consort is really extraordinary!”
“Compared to him, my Dharma treasure is indeed inferior!”
Yuan Shanhe hurriedly bowed. “Master Cao, please don’t blame me!”
Cao Yang’s status in the entire state was too high. Yuan Shanhe’s subordinates informed Cao Yang to refine a Dharma treasure, but he didn’t accept it now. He was worried that this would anger Cao Yang, so he hurriedly apologized.
“It’s okay!” Cao Yang waved his hand heartily. “Your Majesty, being able to obtain a Dharma treasure personally refined by the Consort is a god-given opportunity. How can I have any resentment?”
“That’s good!” Yuan Shanhe was overjoyed.
He knew that Cao Yang was only letting it go because of Lin Xuan.
Cao Yang listened carefully and realized that there was music coming from the hall.
“Could it be that the Consort is in the hall?”
Yuan Shanhe nodded. “That’s right. I was afraid of disturbing the Consort, so I came out to see you myself.”
“Understandable.” Cao Yang expressed his understanding.
Although he had a high status in Quanzhou, compared to the North Mystic Heaven’s Consort, it was like the difference between dust and stars.
If he disturbed the Consort’s mood, that would be a huge sin!
