Alone and Infinite

Awoo and Black Charcoal are rushing this way and are expected to meet at the border of the Twilight Tundra.

From this moment on, my position has been under the enemy's control.

From this moment on, all schemes will be ineffective; only strength can break through the encirclement.

Scarpo stared silently at the location displayed on the crystal disc in his hand, feeling a burning sensation on his face.

It felt like I'd been slapped hard across the face.

A strange atmosphere filled the camp, where all the commanders of various ranks stood with their heads bowed, not daring to speak.

Occasionally, they would exchange a quiet glance, and they could see the unspoken understanding between them.

Not long ago, the camp was filled with a joyful atmosphere, with everyone praising the legion commander's brilliant strategies with flattery and admiration.

No matter how cunning the enemy was, they were all manipulated by the legion commander.

It was as if the messenger would lead his valiant soldiers to bring the thief who dared to steal the sacred relic to them at any moment.

"Pass on the order—"

Scarpo's voice was unusually low. Although his face still felt a burning pain, he was, after all, the 'Sword of the Empire,' one of the Ten Pillars, and the commander of the Southern Legion.

It was just a misjudgment. After saying those two words, he took a deep breath and adjusted his mindset.

Everyone suddenly stood at attention, all the previous strangeness vanished, leaving only focused attention as they awaited orders.

Scarpo's gaze swept around:

"Send a signal to the main camp, and the remaining 10,000 troops should immediately intercept them, using crossbows as much as possible, and avoiding close combat unless absolutely necessary."

With the sacred relic currently on his person, ordinary soldiers cannot receive its blessings for long.

Primarily characterized by delays and procrastination!

"Yes, sir!" The officers in charge of the matter pounded their chests with their fists and left to carry out their orders.

"Send messages to the Tranquil River Valley and Dragon Road, send messages to the Holy Land, and tell the other ten pillars to come here as quickly as possible."

Only the strong can resist the radiance of the sacred relic. Fighting within the relic's range is beyond the capabilities of ordinary soldiers.

Even if he was unwilling, Scarpo had no choice but to ask others for help.

Along the entire southern front of the Empire, the Dragon Path is garrisoned by 'Imperial Wings' Kobis, and the Holy Land is garrisoned by 'Imperial Arrow' Poison Arrow Robbie.

The 'Imperial Wall' Brünn is stationed in the Tranquil Valley, along with himself.

There are four 'Ten Pillars' in total, and they are not far apart, so they can definitely catch up.

Scarpo tucked his helmet under his arm and strode out, his armor clanging melodiously.

Outside, a golden beast, led by its attendants, was brought to a stop in front of the camp.

This beast possessed a litheness unlike any other beast, and its eyes were extremely lively. Upon seeing Scarpo arrive, it exhaled two puffs of hot white breath from its nostrils.

Scarpo mounted the Beastmaster, put on his helmet, and affectionately patted the Beastmaster beneath him.

"Old buddy, we need to speed things up."

He took out the berserk drug and put it into the Beast King's mouth, then waited quietly for a few seconds.

A bloodshot glint gradually appeared in the Beast King's eyes, and its forehooves unconsciously began to paw at the soil.

Scarpo sighed inwardly. The Beast King's physique was strong, and this medicine would not cause it to die after its potential was unleashed like that of an ordinary Beast King.

However, it will also severely damage its vitality, and it won't be able to run for at least a year.

But it's all worth it.

He had to slap the stone man's 'face' back with his own hands.

I swear by the glory of the Empire's sword!

"put!"

The centurion, his eyes bloodshot, howled and shouted.

"Buzzing—"

The sounds of hundreds of heavy crossbow strings vibrating together echoed above the shimmering tundra.

Hundreds of black crossbow bolts, each as thick as a man's arm, were twisted together from vines. Once fired, they writhed strangely in the air, spitting out sharp arrows like venomous snakes.

They coalesced into a dark cloud and hurtled straight toward Li Xia.

Learning from past lessons, these arrows were not simply aimed at people; they also covered the sky and the sides.

"What other tricks do you have? You're out of tricks, aren't you?"

The person with the hair around his waist let out a low, husky laugh, their emerald-green eyes fixed on Li Xia with interest.

From the moment they clashed with the southern army, they faced the enemy's strategy of blocking them in batches of thousands and building defenses in stages.

Li Xia used various methods, all with one goal: to break into the enemy ranks.

In the first wave, I used the Afterimage Fist and, taking advantage of the enemy's cheers, used my still-developing dash technique to charge into the enemy ranks.

In less than five minutes, most of the enemies began to turn to wood. Li Xia didn't even need to fight anymore; he just needed to keep advancing, and these soldiers, who seemed like wooden puppets with rusty joints, could only stare helplessly.

The second wave flew directly into the sky, leaving the centurion, who had learned his lesson and was attempting to suppress his troops with a three-stage firing attack, to watch in despair as Li Xia descended from the sky and slaughtered his soldiers.

What tricks will Li Xia come up with for this third wave? We're really looking forward to seeing how many kills he gets.

He already knew what his tribesman's commander was doing, and he even knew that with him there, human wave tactics would be difficult to use.

Only the strongest can participate in the battle.

Therefore, the people were eager to see more so that they could send messages to their people when the real battle broke out.

Li Xia ignored the severed head and suddenly flung out the spear in his hand like a bolt of lightning.

Then, he followed the spear and traversed through space.

The centurion nearly popped his eyes out when he saw Li Xia suddenly appear before him.

"The enemy has entered the formation—"

"Swoosh!" The violently spinning spear had already pierced his throat. Li Xia gripped his sword in reverse and hacked wildly through the Griggan crowd as if cutting melons and vegetables.

To deal with these ordinary cavalrymen, Li Xia didn't even need to use his true qi or techniques; he only needed to swing his sword, and wherever he went, they fell like wheat being harvested.

Traveling through space?!

The emerald-like pupils of the human head contracted slightly. When did the Stone Clan produce such an expert? Aren't they only good at playing with stones?

But Li Xia did not stop at all. After breaking out of the enemy formation, he immediately changed direction and rushed towards the wide plain.

The entire cavalry force of ten thousand men was far from enough to form a tight encirclement, and they were also hampered by Scarpo's orders.

They could only use long-range crossbows to harass and delay, but the accompanying priests caused Li Xia more trouble.

These priests, with their hunched backs and wooden staffs in their hands, raised their staffs and chanted incantations, and suddenly vines sprouted from the ground.

Like a snake, it weaves back and forth in the black soil, with its thick roots occasionally appearing and disappearing rapidly on the ground.

Suddenly, it stretched out tendrils like tentacles, its tail opening into a mouth like a flower petal, revealing wriggling barbs inside that bit down hard.

Or it could be a silent, stealthy stab, its gleaming tail needle skimming the ground.

In particular, as time went on, these priests who could not ride the beasts were continuously arriving from the main camp.

The variety of insidious plant magic is increasing, and if we don't deal with it, we might really be dragged to our deaths by these Griggans.

The spear danced nimbly behind it, weaving back and forth like a fish. Whenever a vine sprouted from behind, it would immediately charge forward with great momentum.

The vine was quite tough, but the Murakumo Sword had no other advantages but sharpness and sturdiness, which was a perfect counter to it.

The 'head' at his waist watched the Murakumo Sword flying around wildly as if it were alive, and its eyes flickered more and more intensely.

There was even a sense of dread. When did the Stone Clan produce such a figure? This was a great enemy of their clan and had to be eliminated!

Li Xia didn't have time to care what the human head was thinking; all he wanted to do was rush to the group of priests and kill all those tentacled creatures.

With a swing of the Night Silence sword, he severed several newly sprouted vines in front of him, and a surge of electricity coursed through the vines.

This stimulation caused the vines, which possessed the characteristics of living things, to stretch straight, then tremble and fall to the ground, convulsing.

As they drew closer, the assembled priests suddenly thrust their wooden staffs into the ground in unison.

A strange, hoarse incantation echoed in the air.

Countless vines burst forth from the soil, rapidly extending their branches, intertwining with each other, growing larger and larger.

The last giant sphere, about five meters in diameter, suddenly appeared before us.

"Hehehehe. Wall of Vines, Griggs' strongest defensive sorcery. Stone remnants, you're in trouble."

The head at his waist suddenly burst into a low, hoarse laugh; he had figured it out.

Getting hit a couple of times is nothing; he had thrown away pride and shame in the mud hundreds of years ago when he decided to wage war against the stone men.

It seems the other side doesn't dare to kill him, nor can they kill him, so what is there to worry about?

Night's silence, gleaming coldly, pierced through the incredulous gazes of the men, the spear tip sinking deep into their heads.

Li Xia frowned, because the moment he pierced the gun, he felt immense resistance, as if countless hands were pulling on the shaft, preventing it from going any deeper.

But he had no idea how much shock that single shot would cause to the head.

What kind of gun is this? How can it be this sharp?

When used alone, the Wall of Vines is a decent defensive move, but when used in combination, the more priests involved, the stronger the defense becomes.

According to the Griggans' own experiments, when a dozen high priests jointly cast a vine wall, the ten pillars' regular attacks could only break through the surface.

But the fact that so many people could be pierced by a single, casual shot made it clear that the spear was exceptionally sharp.

When Li Xia first traversed space, he also threw out his weapon before appearing at the location of the spear.

So, even the ability to travel through time was granted by the spear?

In addition, what he saw transformed into lightning and burst into white flames.

A divine weapon! The head stared silently at the jet-black spear, the green light in its eyes flashing.

Li Xia squinted, staring at the vine ball in front of her.

Can it be broken? Yes, but it will take time.

But what we lack most right now is time.

so.

His true qi surged and transformed into immense power, under the astonished gazes of the Griggan cavalry and the headless man.

Li Xia bowed, and his entire body swelled as soon as he felt the wind, instantly reaching a height of nearly fifty meters.

He stomped his left foot heavily on the left side of the rattan ball, and the surrounding soil exploded in all directions under the immense force.

The entire ground shook.

Then he swung his right foot, kicking the sepak takraw ball with the motion of kicking a soccer ball.

Leave you!

Chapter 314 Li Xia VS Scarborough

How terrifying would Li Xia's kick be, given his strength being nearly thirty times greater?

The moment the outstretched instep struck the sepak takraw ball, it was as if a muffled thunderclap had exploded in the night sky.

"Oh!"

The soil around the rattan ball exploded in all directions, and when it struck nearby soldiers, the immense force it carried caused them to fall backward.

A very distinct sonic boom cloud exploded on the side of the takatsu ball.

To everyone's astonishment, the rattan ball shot into the sky, whistling as it flew towards the distant horizon, becoming a black dot.

Li Xia's body slowly shrank, and a large amount of steam dissipated from the surface of her skin.

His chest heaved violently, and his internal energy naturally began to circulate. In just a short while, he regulated his breathing once again.
