I have an endless army of warriors, rampaging across the heavens.

Chapter 40, Stage 4: Power Amplification; Stage 5: Power Release!
For the soldiers, the primary objective is decapitation.

Level 4 assassins possess physical attributes four times that of an ordinary strongman.

Also.

In addition to their 'Blood Burning' talent, they also possess the specialty 'Lone Wolf'.

[Lone Wolf: When entering combat, if the assassin is alone, adrenaline surges and physical attributes are temporarily increased by 1.]

Eighth-level assassin.

Walking alone.

They acted separately, with each Level 8 assassin facing the enemy alone and entering combat mode by themselves.

Physical fitness was temporarily boosted fivefold.

power.

speed.

This includes vision and hearing.

The improvements in all aspects have far exceeded common sense.

They tiptoed quietly into the soldiers' rest area—

Click!

Click!

He grabbed her head with a large hand and twisted it until she didn't make a sound.

A full 27 level-eight assassins carried out the assassination, and when the opponent was completely unprepared, it was a nightmare.

Zuo Jing possessed him, repeatedly jumping around to collect statistics.

"27."

"54."

"81."

Zuo Jing suddenly realized that he didn't actually need to carry out the so-called decapitation operation: "27 level-eight assassins, each of whom would kill five soldiers the moment they entered the room."

In the blink of an eye.

135 soldiers were killed.

A moment later.

The death toll has reached 270.

Then there were 405 people—

"who!"

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

"enemy--"

"Enemy attack!!!!!"

The assassination attempt was eventually discovered.

A piercing scream echoed throughout the entire city of yellow sand.

"what's the situation?"

"what happened?"

"A slave revolt?"

The remaining soldiers and many auxiliary soldiers ran out of the house and asked around what was going on.

Lei Yuanyong strode out of the dungeon.

A soldier rushed in with a terrified report: "They're all dead! Lord! They're all dead!"

What's all dead?

Lei Yuanyong frowned.

With Huangsha City completely under our control, what trouble could possibly arise?
The families of those soldiers are all in the mortal world, under the control of the Lei family, so they are not afraid of them rebelling.

Although many of the auxiliary soldiers' families came to Huangsha City and had no worries about their families, if they wanted to rebel, there were still soldiers watching them.

As for those slaves...

The number of soldiers was small, and there were also 500 combat soldiers and 500 auxiliary soldiers to suppress them.

How to rebel?

If all three groups are suppressed, then who else can rebel?

'Are we going to rebel together?'

That's impossible!
The supply of materials to Huangsha City depends entirely on the support of the Lei family outside the blessed land.

Once they rebel.

Cut it off directly.

Without food supplies, how long could this group hold out even if they captured Huangsha City?

This is also impossible.

Then.

Excluding all impossibilities, the only possibility is—

"Blessed land!"

"Homegrown!"

"It must be a native creature from this blessed land that has infiltrated Huangsha City!"

"Everyone, be careful!"

"Uncle En, Uncle Kai, come closer to me!"

Lei Yuanyong reacted quickly, summoning Lei Shi'en and Lei Shikai, the leaders of the top ten experts in Huangsha City, to gather the experts first, and then to summon the warrior leader: "Lei Heng! Lei Heng, come quickly!"

Lei Heng died long ago.

Lei Yuanyong was met with a loud shout—

"Kill!" Twenty-seven level-eight assassins leaped out at once, each wielding a large sword.

Ten of them immediately broke the news.

A blood-pumping moment.

[Blood Burning: Divided into three stages. Stage 1: Burns 10% of blood and qi, increasing physical attributes by 1 (level 8 assassins can increase from 4x to 5x), lasting for five minutes, followed by a day of weakness; Stage 2: Burns 50% of blood and qi, increasing physical attributes by 2, and height and physique by 1.5 times, lasting for five minutes, followed by a three-day weakness; Stage 3: Burns all blood and qi, increasing physical attributes by 3, and height and physique by 2 times, lasting for 10 minutes, followed by sudden death.]

The base stats of a Level 8 assassin are 4 times higher.

The blood-burning effect doubled again, surging to five times the size of an ordinary strong man.

Every gesture.

It requires almost a thousand pounds of force.

Ten men rushed forward and slashed wildly. They didn't know any swordsmanship; they relied entirely on speed and passion.

With five times the strength, speed, reaction time, and other physical attributes, even someone completely ignorant of swordsmanship, who can still unleash terrifying combat power by slashing around aimlessly.

For example, a tiger.

For example, black bears.

Do they know martial arts?

will not.

Aren't they amazing?

Of course it's amazing!

These ten level-eight assassins, all at the peak of their bloodlust, were like tigers descending from the mountain or man-eating black bears, capable of causing immense destruction with a mere flick of their wrists.

Another 17 level-eight assassins assisted them.

Led by Lei Yuanyong, there are ten experts permanently stationed in Huangsha City. They are responsible for 'luring monsters', that is, going out of Huangsha City to search for traces of strange beasts and then luring them to Huangsha City to hunt them down.

Each of them is light and agile, skilled in light-body martial arts, and often eats exotic beasts such as 'sand fox meat', 'wild donkey meat', and 'camel meat' to enhance their agility, running speed, and endurance.

In terms of skill, none of them are inferior to the old driver from back then.

Either a knife or a gun.

Blades flashed and gunshots clashed.

He is highly skilled in martial arts.

Zuo Jing had sharp eyes; he noticed that when two of them unleashed their power, the tips of their knives flashed with a cold light, and the tips of their spears also gleamed with a cold glint.

"This is--"

"Fifth Stage: External Release of Force!"

The art of martial arts is profound and extensive.

It is difficult for an ordinary person to understand it in a lifetime.

Some exceptionally talented individuals continuously explore the ultimate realm of martial arts, elevating the art to new heights step by step.

Phase 1: Strength training.

Phase Two: Tongli.

Third stage: Integrated strength.

Only by reaching the third stage can one be considered to have entered the inner sanctum of martial arts and be called a 'master'.

His strength is integrated, and quantitative change leads to qualitative change. Every punch and kick he makes integrates the strength he has mastered in the second stage and turns it into a single force that is extremely lethal.

Wang Hongfei.

Shangguan Ji.

They are all at this level, considered experts commonly seen in official circles and the martial arts world.

But this stage is far from the end of martial arts.

Further up—

Phase Four: Power Boost.

Fifth stage: External release of power.

Stage Six: The internal organs are at their peak.

Among them, the old man who drives the cart is probably in the fourth stage. Based on the whole force, he is more skilled at using the force. He does not need to integrate the force each time, but keeps the force in his body. After he is familiar with it, the same force can exert twice the effect as before.

Combat strength has greatly increased.

Relying on this level, the old man could even entangle with a level seven assassin whose physical attributes were five times that of a second-stage Blood Burning cultivator and remain undefeated for a short period of time.

Absolutely awesome!
It's already this powerful in the fourth stage.

The fifth stage is a further step, allowing the power to be projected outwards, thus stepping into the realm of the extraordinary.

The first four stages are all legal and compliant, confined within the body, and still within the range that ordinary people can understand.

but.

Five stages.

The force is released outwards.

What the hell is this?

That outward-facing force wasn't some kind of punch or blade wind, but a real, inflicting 'force'.

Step out.

Unrivaled in the world!

"Lei Shi'en!"

"Lei Shikai!"

Zuo Jing already knew from the exploration team that there were ten masters in Huangsha City, including these two top masters, both of whom were core members of the Lei family. They were said to be extremely strong, but no one knew exactly how strong they were.

Now!
Now I know.
