My Apprenticeship to Uncle Jiu: I Was a Warlord in the Republic of China

As for those ordinary soldiers, after hearing Jiang Li's words, a small number of them followed, while most of the rest either failed to react for a while or were so frightened that they dared not charge at all.

But no matter what the reason was, it didn't matter, because with Jiang Li's departure, without his luck and protection, the remaining soldiers were immediately devoured by the swarming evil soldiers.

Back to Jiang Li, ever since he rushed into the army of Yin soldiers, before he had killed a few of them, they immediately became like mice encountering a cat, trying to avoid him as much as possible, and quickly scattered to both sides, not daring to meet Jiang Li at all.

When the Black Mountain Ghost King saw this, he immediately flew up and landed in front of Jiang Li with thirty-six ghost generals. Then he stretched out his hand, and a red strange long sword appeared in his hand.

Then it flew out, brandishing its knife and standing together with Jiang Li.

The thirty-odd ghost generals also held weapons and rushed towards the Taoist soldiers behind Jiang Li.

It’s not that they don’t want to besiege Jiang Li, but Jiang Li’s luck is too strong, they don’t dare to get close to him. Even the Black Mountain Ghost King is very passive at this time.

Suppressed by Jiang Li's humanitarian luck, his strength was weakened by at least 70%. He didn't get much advantage against the golden cudgel in Jiang Li's hand.

But Jiang Li was only a geomancer after all, and he didn't have any powerful means of attack, so he could only remain undefeated temporarily, but he couldn't break out at all.

When he stopped, the soldiers behind him were in trouble.

There were more than thirty-six ghost generals besieging them, there were also more than a thousand ghost soldiers. It was not because there were more than a thousand ghost soldiers, but because if there were too many they would not be able to maneuver.

In just a short while, all the ordinary soldiers had died, and the remaining one hundred or so Taoist soldiers had suffered heavy casualties and could only hold on with great difficulty.

Jiang Li became anxious upon seeing this, but there was nothing he could do but keep fending off the attacks of the Black Mountain Ghost King.

When the Black Mountain Ghost King saw that Jiang Li was getting impatient, he swung his sword and was about to cut him in half.

Jiang Li saw that the knife was so fast and sharp that he could only block it with the stick. However, with the huge force coming from the stick, he was immediately knocked back several steps and almost fell to the ground.

When the Black Mountain Ghost King saw Jiang Li being beaten back, he did not pursue him. Instead, he flew up and kept some distance between him and then waved his robe, and a gust of black wind swept towards Jiang Li who had just stood firm.

Jiang Li had just stood firm and was not on guard at all, and was immediately swept up by the black wind. But when he lowered his head and felt his body, he found nothing unusual, which made him look at the Black Mountain Ghost King in confusion.

When the Black Mountain Ghost King saw that his spell hit Jiang Li, he didn't have time to be happy, but he found that he was not affected at all.

The Black Mountain Ghost King, who refused to give up, cast several spells in succession, but these spells were either dodged by Jiang Li or had no effect after hitting him.

This made the Black Mountain Ghost King extremely angry, and he finally managed to utter a few words through his teeth, "The law does not apply to noble people!"

"Hmph, even if my magic can't do anything to you today, you are already in my formation, and you can't fly out even if you have wings!"

"Guys, quickly deal with those soldiers, and then follow me to trap this guy to death."

The ghost generals and ghost soldiers who were besieging the Taoist soldiers immediately intensified their offensive. They did not put up any defense at all and directly adopted a life-for-life tactic. This made the Taoist soldiers led by Jiang Youchi and Asan even more miserable.

As for why those ghost soldiers were defending before, it was because these Taoist soldiers, in addition to the magical bronze swords in their hands, were also blessed with a trace of humanity as Jiang Li's personal soldiers.

It was this trace of luck that allowed their attacks to easily kill the ghost soldiers, so both sides suffered casualties in the previous battles.

But now these ghost soldiers completely ignored their own casualties, and because of their large numbers, there were soon only a few Taoist soldiers left.

The most surprising thing is that Jiang Youchi, the intelligence chief, is still alive.

Although he had practiced martial arts for several years, he did not practice as often as the Taoist soldiers, and he also had to hide his body and gather intelligence.

So Jiang Li didn't do that at all, and specifically asked him to take blood mushrooms to prevent his muscles from becoming too strong, which would affect his work.

He was just like an ordinary soldier, eating a lot of meat from livestock raised with special feed, and his physical fitness was a bit stronger than that of ordinary people.

As to why he is still alive today, it depends on the identities of the remaining people.

It turned out that after a period of fighting, there were only a dozen Taoist soldiers left, and all of them were officers with official positions.

It is precisely because they have stronger luck than others that they have been able to hold on until now under the attacks of these ghost soldiers.

But he was unable to do anything but block the attack left and right. He could only defend himself and had no strength to fight back.

At this moment, Asan suddenly jumped up, ignoring the long spear stabbed by a ghost general, and took the blow head-on, but the magic bronze sword in his hand also hit the ghost general's body solidly.

The bronze sword cut the ghost's body in half like a knife cutting through butter, and then he turned around and killed several sneak attacking soldiers with a backhanded sword.

However, there were too many ghost soldiers at the scene. Although he killed several of them, there were still some ghost soldiers who took advantage of his injured and sluggish body and stabbed him again.

In this way, he, who was already seriously injured, was hit again. The flaws in his moves became more and more, and he was soon stabbed into a bloody gourd.

The other Taoist soldiers and Jiang Youchi were also outnumbered and were stabbed like sieves one after another.

Seeing that they were all dead, Jiang Li became ruthless and rushed forward regardless of anything. The ghost soldiers didn't even think of stopping him and let Jiang Li pass through.

When the Black Mountain Ghost King saw that Jiang Li was about to break out of the formation, he immediately stepped forward to intercept him. However, Jiang Li no longer had to take care of the Taoist soldiers behind him as before.

Therefore, every time when encountering the Black Mountain Ghost King's interception, he would not give it a chance to entangle with him. After fighting with it, he would immediately change direction.

In this way, in the chase and escape, Jiang Li ran straight to the edge of the ghost domain, but the Black Mountain Ghost King didn't know whether Jiang Li could break through the ghost domain in a short time.

But to be on the safe side, he still flew in front of Jiang Li and fought with him.

Jiang Li saw that the edge of the ghost realm was right in front of him, so he was unwilling to stay here any longer. After fighting with it for a few moves, he showed a flaw and let the Black Mountain Ghost King's big knife chop his shoulder.

He took out Mo Mei (a small black sword magic weapon) from his storage bag, and with a thought, the magic weapon flew straight to the chest of the Black Mountain Ghost King. The ghost king had no time to react and was pierced through the chest by the magic weapon.

However, Jiang Li did not stop there. After his successful attack, he immediately controlled the flying sword to go back and forth several times.

The spiritual weapon had been nurtured by Jiang Li's magical power for many years. Although it was full of spiritual power and powerful, it was not a special magical weapon specifically designed for ghosts.

Although it is possible to injure the Black Mountain Ghost King, it is very difficult to kill him.

Jiang Li also saw this and immediately retracted his black eyebrows. He looked at the Black Mountain Ghost King, chanted the divine spell to purify heaven and earth, and retreated step by step to the edge of the ghost domain.
