Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

On the high platform, Hua Yunhong's body froze in mid-air, his narrow eyes fixed on the dark golden light bursting out at the entrance of the canyon. For the first time, all the calmness and calculation were gone from his face, leaving only the twisted and extreme rage as if his most precious treasure had been taken away!

“Qin Ming——!!!” Hua Yunhong’s roar echoed through the canyon like a wounded poisonous dragon. “How dare you——!!!”

At the entrance of the canyon, Qin Ming sat upright on his jet-black warhorse. Under his visor, his bottomless eyes were like two cold abysses that swallowed up all the light. They reflected the dark golden light on Liu Yueli's chest that was flashing wildly and trying to merge, and also reflected Hua Yunhong's face that was distorted by rage.

The corners of his mouth, beneath his face, slowly curled up into an extremely cold arc.

"Hua Yunhong..." Qin Ming's icy voice seemed to come from the underworld, "Your 'Sacred Tree'... I... accept it!"

"Destroy the foundation of my sacred tree! This hatred... is irreconcilable!!!"

He turned around abruptly, his dark green coiled dragon robe rustling in the wind. His narrow eyes swept across the chaotic battlefield below, across the rigid mother tree of the Rot Heart Willow, and finally landed on Helian Tieshu's scarred face, which was twisted by rage.

"Helian!" Hua Yunhong's voice was icy cold, and every word was like a poisoned ice needle. "Pass the order! Three blades attack together! Crush them... for me!"

"Here!" A bloodthirsty glint flashed in Helian Tieshu's eyes! His huge body suddenly took a step forward, holding the heavy horn high in his hand!

Woo-woo-woo-woo!!!

Three short, sharp horn calls, like the weeping blood of a night owl, tore through the air! With resolute murderous intent, they echoed throughout the canyon!

The horn sounds!

Deep in the canyon, the battlefield, which had been in a brief silence, suddenly boiled like an ice cube thrown into boiling oil!

"kill--!!!"

Earth-shaking roars erupted from the cliffside walkways on either side of the canyon! Countless Rot Heart Willow Guards, clad in dark green vine armor and smeared with pale oil paint on their faces, swarmed like poisonous bees, descending the steep cliffs using vines and ropes like ghosts! Their target wasn't the chaotic Black Armored Soldiers at the bottom of the canyon, but rather—the canyon entrance! The core area where Qin Ming was!

at the same time!

boom! boom! boom!

Heavy footsteps rolled like muffled thunder! Deep in the canyon, in the shadows shrouded by the poisonous miasma, rows of heavily armored infantry, clad in thick iron armor and armed with huge shields and spears, like a mobile fortress, marched in measured and heavy steps, like a torrent of steel, slowly pressing towards the canyon entrance! The friction of the armor made a harsh clang! The giant shields linked together, forming an impenetrable steel wall! Spears like a forest, flashing with a cold gleam! These were the last elite of the Shenmu Royal Court—the "Iron Wall Guards"!

What’s even more frightening is!

Woo——! ! !

An even more shrill horn sounded from the dense forest on the right side of the canyon!

Immediately afterwards, the earth shook violently! Dust rose into the sky! A small but well-equipped cavalry, their horses wrapped in dark green cloth, burst out of the dense forest like ghosts! They were extremely fast! Like an arrow from a bow! Their target was directly aimed at the weak point on the right wing of the Xuanjia Army! The cavalrymen wielded not spears, but poison-tipped short crossbows and scimitars! These were the sharpest daggers of the Shenmu Royal Court—the "Shadow Blade Cavalry"!

Three-pronged attack! Poison vines harass the left cliff! Heavy armor pushes forward in the center! Light cavalry launch a flanking assault on the right! Hua Yunhong's killing move is ruthless and precise! He aims to tear through the Black Armor Army formation with the force of thunder and strike directly at Qin Ming!

"Form a formation! Repel the enemy!" Meng Zhi's roar resounded like thunder! This battle-hardened warrior instantly understood Hua Yunhong's intentions!

At the canyon entrance, the Black Armored Cavalry, momentarily held back by the chaos, displayed remarkable resilience! The soldiers quickly abandoned pursuit of the remaining enemies at the bottom of the valley, their movements resembling those of precision gears.

"Left wing! Raise your shields! Archers! Shoot upwards at the cliff! Suppress the vine armor!" Meng Zhi pointed his giant axe at the cliff on the left!

"Yes!" The left-wing black-armored soldiers instantly changed their formation! Massive tower shields rose up in layers, like steel tortoise shells! Countless powerful bows and crossbows rose from the gaps between the shields! A dense rain of arrows, accompanied by a shrill sound of breaking through the air, shot towards the vine-armored guards sliding down the cliff!

puff!puff!puff!

Arrows pierced the vine armor! Blood splattered! Screams rang out! The vine armor guards, sliding down the ravine armor, fell like dumplings! But some, unafraid of death, charged forward amidst the hail of arrows, their poisoned darts and talons piercing the shield formation like venomous snakes!

"Middle road! Heavy infantry! Push forward! Spears! Chevaux de frise!" Meng Zhi turned his giant axe to the middle road!

"Roar!" In the center of the Black Armor Army, a phalanx of heavy infantry, clad in the thickest lamellar armor and armed with 10-foot-long spears, thundered forward! They were like moving mountains, shaking the earth with every step! Spears pointed diagonally forward, their tips flashing with the cold light of death! Massive tower shields formed a steel barrier before them, charging towards the slowly advancing Shenmu Iron Wall Guards!

"Right wing! Light cavalry! Go out! Entanglement them!" Meng Zhi's giant axe finally pointed at the Shadow Blade Cavalry attacking from the right!

"Kill!" From the right wing of the Black Armor Army, a similar number of light cavalrymen rushed out like wild horses! They abandoned their heavy lances and wielded scimitars and round shields, which were more suitable for grappling! Their hooves flew, stirring up clouds of dust! They bravely charged towards the charging Shadow Blade Cavalry!

The entrance to the canyon instantly turned into a meat grinder!

Left wing! A hail of arrows and poisoned arrows intertwined in the air! The bodies of the vine armor guards kept falling, smashing against the black armor shield array with a dull sound! The shields were studded with poisoned blowpipes and flying claws! From time to time, a black armor soldier was hit by the poisoned arrows and fell down screaming, but the gap was immediately filled! The shield array was like a rock, firmly blocking the harassment of the vine armor!

In the middle! Two torrents of steel collided with each other!

boom--! ! !

Like two moving mountains colliding fiercely! A deafening roar! The tower shields of the Black Armor Heavy Infantrymen collided violently with the giant shields of the Divine Wood Iron Wall Guards! Sparks flew! The immense impact caused blood to flow from the mouths and noses of the front-line soldiers! The sound of bones shattering was clearly audible!

“Hold on——!!!” The roars of the generals on both sides were drowned out by the roar of metal!

Spears lashed out like a forest! They thrust fiercely through the gaps in the shields! Every thrust sent up a cloud of blood! Every block produced a sharp scraping sound! Soldiers pressed their shoulders against their shields, pushing forward with all their might! Underfoot lay sticky blood and slippery flesh! Every step forward felt like wading through a swamp! Roars! Howls! The clash of weapons! Bones shattered! The muffled thud of flesh being torn apart! It all intertwined into the most brutal symphony of death!

Right wing! The two light cavalry units collided fiercely like two rushing torrents!

boom--! ! !

Warhorses neighed! Men and horses toppled over! The terrifying force of the high-speed collision instantly sent the front row of cavalrymen and horses flying! The crackling of bones was as intense as popcorn! The fallen soldiers were instantly crushed into a pulp by the iron hooves that surged from behind!
