Immortal Road.

When the three armies heard the roar from the sky, their morale was greatly boosted and they launched a fierce attack on the city wall. All their fears disappeared.

The barbarian defenders were even more terrified. They could see the battle above their heads. The commander was unable to defeat the others, and the soldiers were the most panicked!

Especially without the protection of the city defense formation, they were equivalent to standing targets, targeted and suppressed by the enemy's firepower, and every moment was accompanied by heavy casualties.

Lin Shan opened and closed his mouth, becoming more and more arrogant.

The bonus given by the body-building exercises in the Yuanshen stage gave him a natural suppression when facing the Yuanying stage, as if he was reborn!
Even if the opponent has spiritual treasures and Dharma images, if he can't catch up with them and hit them, it's the same as having nothing! On the other hand, his punches hit the flesh, and his strength and agility are always the best combination, and the opponent can't stop him at all!
After three totems were killed in succession, the gnu antelope's instincts went wild with warnings, his whole body felt cold and his heart was trembling wildly, a chill suddenly shot through his head!
"Oh no, help me!"

Before the two people next to them could react, a huge fist fell from the sky, shattering the protective aura and all the barbarian patterns, and directly pressed the head into the chest!

"die!!"

A figure smashed into the city like a cannonball, cracks in the ground expanded for dozens of feet, the entire border shook violently, tens of thousands of soldiers were knocked to the ground, and the city walls wailed under the heavy burden.

Crash, crash, crash~~~
It actually fell over halfway on the spot, and a cloud of dust spread out, with a choking smell blocking my nose and throat.

Everyone looked up and was horrified to find a figure like an iron tower standing in the dust, motionless like an ancient demon.

The smoke dispersed.

The gibbon was caught in the hand like this, and it looked no different from a chick. It had been dead for a long time and became a headless corpse.

Aguda and Tieguman had disappeared, and there seemed to be two faint lights in the sky, which turned in different directions and fled without fighting!
"Marshal, are you going to abandon us?"

As the barbarians collapsed, the human coalition forces were so frightened that their legs were shaking. Even their friendly forces couldn't help but feel that they could not be approached.

"Did I let you go?"

Lin Shan looked coldly at the sky and threw the corpse away like a torn sack. He took back the storage magic weapon of the gnu antelope in disappointment. As expected, there was no totem pole he wanted in it. He simply pulled out the javelin magic weapon from its body and swung it fiercely towards the distance!
The power of wind and thunder surrounded the javelin. The powerful magical power gave it an incredible speed. It pierced through the clouds in an instant, and only a flash of white light could be seen!
A figure in the sky fell down like a bird with broken wings.

His body turned into a rainbow of lightning and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

After a cup of tea.

The three coalition forces had just entered the city when Lin Shan came back carrying the bodies of two others. One was pierced to death by a magic weapon, and the other was beaten into a bloody bag!
These people did not release the totem poles before they died. After checking, they were indeed not on them. However, three spiritual treasures were seized. They are of no use to him now, and are not as useful as his own body. However, they are at least a weapon, and are always better than bare hands at certain times.

[Barbarian Blood Javelin]

Quality: Lingbao (acquired)

Introduction: It is based on the spine of a ten-thousand-year-old ferocious beast, and incorporates the blood of the Simon tribe's ancestors that has been refined for thousands of years. The gun body is engraved with a blood rage totem. Hitting the opponent triggers a soul-devouring effect, absorbing spiritual power and feeding it back to the body.

【Witch Curse Bone Drum】

Quality: Lingbao (acquired)

Introduction: A magical instrument passed down from the witch clan to drive away barbarians. Made from the skull of a barbarian beast, it releases soul-stirring sound waves when it strikes, and the target's consciousness feels as if being eaten by thousands of ants. It can also drive the barbarian beast to rebel, ignoring the restrictions of the contract.

Enhancement required: 128 points

【Earth-shattering Axe】

Quality: Lingbao (acquired)

Introduction: The axe blade is made of the earth's core black iron, and has the effect of ground vibration, which makes the ground energy within a radius of ten miles disordered. The axe handle is wrapped with fat tendons, which triples the damage to python-like beasts.

Enhancement required: 128 points

The three acquired spiritual treasures were all pretty standard, two barbarian weapons and one magical weapon. He was too lazy to care where they came from and just put them in his pocket and slowly refined them.

The battle situation on the human side has begun to emerge, and the human race has gained the advantage both in the sky and underground.

The Nascent Soul cultivators of the three major barbarian tribes lost their backbone. Except for a small number who found it difficult to leave the tribes below, most of them decided to flee.

For a moment, the sky was filled with streams of light whizzing by. Any light passing by Lin Shan would deliberately turn around him and rush towards the horizon in an arc.

Watching this group of people chasing each other and fleeing, the Jindan and foundation-building cultivators who were responsible for regional defense also followed suit.

War is nothing more than that if the leaders don't run away, the people below dare not run away; once the leaders run away, the people below will scatter like monkeys when the trees fall!

Lin Shan didn't bother with all this and just waited for the battle below to end.

Half a day later.

The army that went out to hunt and kill returned one after another, bringing with them a long list of prisoners. Including those who surrendered in the city, the total number of prisoners was as high as 40,000 to 50,000!

These are the strong men from the three major tribes who went to war. They can definitely get a good price if they are sold as slaves. The major alliances are picking and choosing them, and are reluctant to let them go. They want to keep them for their own use. Whether they are mining, farming or being cannon fodder, they can bring in a steady stream of income.

The siege advance team originally led by Lin Shan was commended by everyone for being the first to rush to the top of the city wall. The Yuanying stage cultivators surrounded him and brought him to a relatively well-preserved building.

The barbarian commander's mansion in Donghuang Town is not very grand and looks similar to a normal official's residence in the mortal world.

“Hahahaha, Brother Daoist Lei Fengzi has boundless true energy. He single-handedly killed the three great marshals of the barbarians. He is truly almighty. We all bow down to him!”

"If it weren't for you, I don't know how many years this East Wasteland Town would have held us back, and I'm afraid it would be difficult to make any progress in the future!"

"Fellow Daoist, your body has become holy, with tendons of copper and bones of iron. I really don't know how you trained. Do you have any experience to share with me?"

"I was so disappointed that I didn't recognize the great man before. Please don't blame me if I was a little negligent."

These people were all respectful and full of praise, completely different from how they were when they first arrived!

As for Xuanmiao Zhenjun of the Wudao Sect, he changed his face at this moment and boasted loudly in front of the crowd.

"I have known for a long time that Fellow Daoist Lei Fengzi is the strongest on the field, so I strongly recommended him to take the lead. As expected, he won the first place. He is truly a role model for our generation and the number one contributor."

Lin Shan was too lazy to pay attention to this clown. Instead, he glared at the leader of the Wudao Sect and spoke provocatively.

"Master Wu, it seems that we had a competition that was not carried out yesterday. How about we have a competition today to see who is the weak one and whether I, Lei, like to bully the weak?"

The Wudao Sect leader's face twitched and he was very embarrassed in front of everyone.

Everyone wisely kept silent, made room for the two, and stayed away from the Wu Dao Sect for fear of being implicated.

Even Xuan Miao Zhenjun and other Wu Dao Sect's direct descendants did not dare to step forward to take responsibility at this moment. They shrank back and lowered their heads in obscurity, pushing the Wu Dao Sect's leader out. Huh~~~
The leader of the Wudao Sect took a deep breath, his expression changed, and then he put on a smile.

"Daoyou Lei Fengzi's physical body is unmatched. I am no match for him. This competition was just a joke yesterday. I have thought it over again and again and decided not to humiliate myself."

These words were simple and straightforward, and the leader of the Wudao Sect admitted his mistake!

Instead of looking down on him, everyone looked up to him.

A man who can bend and stretch can be a husband.

When he knew he couldn't win, he might as well surrender and there was no need to fight. Although he was the face of the Wudao Sect, it was more honorable to admit defeat verbally than to lose in a fight.

Lin Shan glanced at him in surprise, wanting to show this guy a lesson, but he didn't expect him to be so cowardly!

Okay, he nodded and said nothing more.

The Wushan Yin clan leader Yin Jiuchen behind him was very perceptive. He immediately took advantage of the opportunity to come forward and handed over a storage bag, which was slightly lower than him at this time.

"Brother Dao, these are the totem poles you asked me to collect before the war. I led the army to encircle and suppress the small tribes and collected so many for you. Do you see any that catch your eye?"

"Oh? That's thoughtful."

The leader of the Nether Curse Sect, who had always been invisible, also stood up and smiled kindly for the first time:

"Brother Lei Fengzi, this is the totem that our Nether Curse Sect found for you."

"Thank you!"

"Brother Dao, this is what I found. Although it's not much, it's a token of my appreciation."

"Brother Dao, there is me"

Everyone changed their way of addressing each other. They used to call each other fellow Daoists, but now they call each other brothers Daoists, which is equivalent to semi-honorific terms, purely out of recognition of each other's strength.

Even the leader of the Wudao Sect was tactful enough to offer a totem pole.

Lin Shan never refuses anyone who comes to him. Since this group of people came to him, he would rather accept them than refuse them.

With a rough glance, there are thirty-three in total. Adding up all the pieces, another seventy points of ancient charm have been credited!

These are all affiliated ethnic groups of the three major tribes. It is really unlucky for them to be wiped out together.

Including the two previous raids in Qibei Town and Diantuo Formation, the Jiuli land has provided a full 144 points!
Although the small tribe has less mosquito meat, the quantity is large!

Lin Shan was in a good mood and didn't bother to think about what happened yesterday. Instead, he began to ask everyone in a friendly manner about the next plan to continue attacking the royal court.

"This"

Unexpectedly, everyone looked hesitant.

It turned out that their previous plan had been changing all the time, from the initial ambition to the difficulty of supply due to the lengthening of the battle line, and then the gradual weakening of morale. After being blocked in Donghuang Town, they adjusted their strategy and requested reinforcements.
The setbacks in reality made them sober up. Later, they planned to capture the three towns, which was already the last link. They didn’t dare to think about anything further because they found it unrealistic!

It was expected that after the battle with the three major tribes, the three alliances would be seriously injured and would need at least half a century to recover. In addition, in order to prevent the barbarian king from sending troops to retake the area, they had to build defensive fortifications, build high walls and store food.
What's the next step?
At most, they would just send a small force out to collect some spoils and steal supplies. Anyway, destroying the barbarian royal court would take time, and everyone knew that there was no rush.

But now that Donghuang Town was easily breached, their three coalition forces did not suffer much loss, and it seems they still have the strength to fight?
The key point was that Lei Fengzi's big thick leg just happened to pull them up, which made them feel more anxious.

This is a God-given opportunity, it only comes once in a lifetime!
If we take advantage of the fact that the barbarian royal court is weak and precarious at this moment, with the Black Lotus Sect confusing all living beings and confiscating totems from all over the world, and the witch tribe in the south reviving and the human race in the north raising troops to attack, perhaps we can really defeat them in one battle!

After all, Zhongli is a place surrounded by wars, and half of the troops of the nine towns are on guard against enemies from all directions. It is not easy to temporarily withdraw troops to fill the hole after the three towns in the north were destroyed.

If we continue our march right now and lead our troops straight to Huanglong, perhaps we can truly accomplish our unprecedented ambition!

"Brother, if you are interested, my Wushan Yin Clan is willing to accompany you to the end, break into the Cangluan Royal Court, capture the Chieftain alive, and expand territory for the human race!"

Yin Jiuchen was the first to respond. His words were firm and decisive without any hesitation, and it was obvious that he had already attached himself to Lin Shan.

Other members of the Wushan Yin clan echoed the sentiment and expressed their willingness to continue sending troops.

The other two families were collectively silent, communicating with each other secretly through their spiritual consciousness, and it was obvious that they were unable to make up their minds.

The leader of the Dark Curse Sect thought for a moment and said hesitantly:
"Brother Yin, what I'm worried about is that the barbarians are deeply rooted in Zhongli. Even if we capture the three towns, there are still many stragglers hiding in the mountains and forests waiting for an opportunity to strike. Wild beasts and poisonous insects harass us every day."

"Now that we have achieved great results in the war, why not consolidate and digest these territories, and consider moving south after the rear is completely stabilized?"

"If I take too big a step, I'm afraid I'll tear my crotch. It's not easy for us to save this little fortune!"

The leader of the Wudao Sect also stood up. Although he did not dare to openly oppose Lin Shan, he also hinted that he did not want to send troops.

"Not to mention that our rear is not stable, the key is that the Cang Luan Royal Court has a strong foundation. If there were not so many places to defend, which caused the troops to be dispersed, we would not be a match at all!"

"The current plan is to slowly nibble away at their strength, suck their blood, and then advance once all the blood has been drained away."

"Otherwise, when we reach the royal court, the other side will be forced to gather forces from all directions to defend the king, leaving the borders empty and giving the witch tribe an opportunity to take advantage of the situation. It would be a thankless task, wouldn't it?"

Such concerns were obviously based on evidence, and everyone nodded in agreement.

Yin Jiuchen secretly looked at Lin Shan and found that his face darkened!
Immediately stood up to refute:
"You are wrong. The barbarian tribes are numerous, huge in size, and have outstanding fertility. Giving them time to catch their breath will only allow them to recover their strength, and we will miss the opportunity in vain!"

"Now that we have a great master like Brother Lei Fengzi to help us, if we don't quickly pursue the victory, do we have to wait until the Cangluan Royal Court recovers and sends a large army to block Donghuang Town and keep us from moving?"

"The timid will die of starvation, and the bold will die of gluttony. If we fail, at worst we will withdraw from Zhongli and give up the three towns. If we win, it will be a permanent solution, and we will rule Jiuli from now on!"

These words were very inflammatory. Some Nascent Soul cultivators found them reasonable and could not help but get excited.

The leader of the Wu Dao Sect frowned and pointed out a key point:
"But the Cangluan Royal Court has the support of the Black Lotus Sect. We are not only facing the barbarians, but also the first evil cult of the human race. Can we defeat them?"

"Don't worry about the Black Lotus Sect, just leave this to me."

Lin Shan suddenly spoke up and took the job directly, letting them rest assured.

My original intention of coming to Jiuli was not to provoke the Black Lotus Sect, but now it seems that since it involves ancient rhyme and substitute Gu, I have to take the risk!

Finally, after unanimous discussion, given that Lin Shan had previously displayed great power and had easily killed the leaders of the three tribes, the top leaders of each family decided to trust him this time.

After the three armies were reorganized, they immediately marched straight to the royal court!
As time went by, the news of the fall of Donghuang Town gradually spread throughout the land of Jiuli, and even to the depths of Cangluan's palace. (End of this chapter)
