Chapter 64: Chapter 64: Meeting Lu Zhongshan!

In the massive battlefield center.

Three figures were engaged in a fierce battle, their steeds long dead from the terrifying power, and heavy thunderous sounds echoed continuously, like rolling thunder.

With each clash and collision, large swathes of Qi Force swept in all directions, like invisible heavy hammers, causing those nearby to vomit blood and be flung back.

These were none other than Lu Zhongshan, Guo Baoyi, and Zhao Tianlong in the midst of a fierce battle.

At this moment, however, Guo Baoyi and Zhao Tianlong were doubling up against Lu Zhongshan.

Even though Lu Zhongshan had long reached the peak of the second tier of Martial Saint, he could not gain any upper hand at the moment. His black spear struck back and forth, clanging loudly, with all his Power exerted to the extreme.

Although each strike sent sand and stones flying, his internal Power was consumed at an exceptionally terrifying speed.

Once his Power was completely depleted, he would inevitably face a dead-end.

“Lu Zhongshan, are you still thinking about waiting for your father’s reinforcements? Let me tell you the truth, your father’s reinforcements cannot come. At this moment, he’s being held up by others. Today will be your burial day!”

Guo Baoyi laughed heartily, wielding his Crescent Moon Frenzy Saber like the wind, whirling and slashing crazily at Lu Zhongshan’s body.

Lu Zhongshan parried with his spear, clanging, his heart sinking rapidly.

His worst fears were coming true.

His father’s reinforcements were held up!

Doomed to be isolated and without aid!

“Guo Baoyi, Zhao Tianlong, if you wish to kill me today, know that one of you will fall with me. If you’re not afraid to die, come on then!”

Lu Zhongshan’s tone was grave, and an unusual blood-red light flickered all over his body, like a bloody lightning flashing on his surface, crackling noisily.

Then, a fierce and terrifying aura erupted instantly from within Lu Zhongshan, with a boom, restoring his previously withering momentum to its peak.

Guo Baoyi and Zhao Tianlong’s faces changed simultaneously, exclaiming in surprise.

“Damn it, it’s the Blood Forbidden Secret Technique, he’s burning his blood energy!”

Zhao Tianlong cursed angrily.

Lu Zhongshan’s entire body was ablaze with blood light, and even the black spear in his hand turned entirely blood-red. With a roar, a massive blood-red dragon rose directly from his spear.

The entire blood-red dragon was vivid and lifelike, with surging aura, shrieking alongside him.

“Kill!”

Lu Zhongshan charged forward rapidly, brandishing the dazzling blood-red spear at Guo Baoyi and Zhao Tianlong with a fierce blow.

The blood-red dragon above glared angrily, its gaze piercing, bursting from the blood-red spear directly at the two ahead.

The two men roared in anger, unleashing every bit of potential without holding back, activating their Secret Technique, their entire bodies illuminating with even more brilliant light, directly clashing with the terrifying blood-red dragon.

Boom!

Even more violent waves erupted from their clash, shaking the earth and mountains, with countless dust sweeping in all directions, shaking the ground beneath into slight tremors.

Massive Power was channeled into the ground, extending who knows how far, leaving cracks where they stood.

The three once again clashed fiercely, plunging into a deadly struggle, clanging, swiftly moving, sweeping through, like a terrifying tornado, killing troops in the melee, casting them away.

“Lu Zhongshan, let’s see how long you can last. Today your defeat is certain, doomed to a dead-end!”

Guo Baoyi shouted loudly.

“My fate is mine, not heaven’s, kill!”

Lu Zhongshan shouted, blood light blazing, his spear waving incessantly, the sound piercing.

Rumble!

Suddenly, heavy rumbling came from afar, continuous, mighty and awe-inspiring, shaking the whole world, like a vast tidal wave sweeping in, incredibly sudden.

Causing the three in combat to change faces, stopping abruptly, looking back suddenly.

“Charge!”

“Kill!”

“Don’t let the Bandit Army escape!”

“Smash the Bandit Army!”

The deafening sound of shouts and kills quickly approached from afar.

The originally dominant Green Forest Army and Red Turban Army also changed colors, turning back swiftly.

“It’s the Fengzhou Army!”

“No, the Fengzhou Army has arrived!”

“Run!”

The entire battlefield plunged into chaos, countless shouting loudly.

···

From the high slope, looking down.

Seeing the endless Fengzhou Army like a torrent of steel bursting from the distant forest, directly splitting into three, like three giant spearheads, sweeping fiercely over the frontal battlefield melee.

The entire battlefield became even more chaotic.

Countless threw down their helmets and armor, fleeing in panic.

They only felt surrounded by the Fengzhou Army on all sides, no one held hope of fighting anymore, only wanting to escape desperately.

“The Fengzhou Army’s strength is this powerful!”

Lu Chengtian showed a look of surprise, speaking.

“Yuan Kaitai is shrewd and cunning, hiding his strength, this time suddenly bursting, indeed intending to swallow the three major armies completely!”

Zhao Qing’s face darkened, gritting his teeth, closely watching the battlefield, suddenly showing joy, “Marshal has broken through!”

Lu Chengtian immediately looked over.

Jiang Shi also gazed distantly.

Seeing as Yuan Kaitai’s army charged into the scene, whether Red Turban Army, Green Forest Army, or Yi Ming Army, all only thought of escaping.

Lu Zhongshan, Guo Baoyi, and Zhao Tianlong, who had originally been in a deadlock, also changed their expressions, quickly separated, and without a second thought, split into three different directions, retreating rapidly.

The entire battlefield was like a swarm of black ants, splitting into countless groups, fleeing in all directions.

“The Marshal went east, hurry, let’s meet up with the Marshal!”

Zhao Qing said joyfully.

“Let’s go!”

Jiang Shi spoke.

The three of them set off again, starting to detour from the high slope.

···

In another direction.

Lu Zhongshan was covered in blood, his breath weak, holding a long spear, struggling with great difficulty to fight his way out of the encirclement, with only a few hundred soldiers remaining by his side who charged out together.

The others either scattered or remained on the battlefield.

They continued nonstop, only focusing on fleeing frantically into the distance.

They fled who knows how many miles in one go, until their horses were utterly exhausted and collapsed, before finally stopping.

Everyone’s face was ashen, their eyes blank, with a feeling of having narrowly escaped death; many couldn’t help but cover their faces and cry, sobbing aloud.

Lu Zhongshan’s body swayed, his breath faltered, and the aftereffects of the forbidden technique he had just unleashed finally surfaced, causing his body to nearly collapse.

“No crying, no one is allowed to cry!”

He panted heavily, shouted sternly, “We are not dead yet, and we haven’t lost our territory. Once the army is reorganized, we will definitely return to our peak. Don’t waste time now, recover from your injuries immediately!”

The generals restrained their emotions, quickly took out elixir pills, stuffed them into their mouths, and began to sit cross-legged to recover on the spot.

Lu Zhongshan also took out a porcelain bottle from his bosom, unscrewed the cap, and poured it into his mouth.

However, just after he had taken the pill, suddenly he heard light footsteps coming from the surrounding forest, as if someone was approaching quickly.

Lu Zhongshan suddenly opened his eyes, but accidentally stirred his injury, coughing up another mouthful of blood.

“Who is it?”

He turned back and shouted sharply, his eyes bright.

“Father!”

Lu Chengtian’s joyful voice came swiftly from the forest.

Then Zhao Qing’s voice followed.

Lu Zhongshan’s heart trembled, he quickly stood up, wobbling as he looked towards the forest.

He saw Lu Chengtian and Zhao Qing rushing over quickly.

Beside them, there was also a peculiar young man, thin with little flesh on his bones, but carrying an exceptionally large wolf fang club.

Lu Zhongshan was first slightly startled, then quickly realized.

“Could this be the Brother Jiang that Zhao Qing mentioned?”

Lu Zhongshan said joyfully.

“Yes, Marshal, it’s Brother Jiang Shi!”

Zhao Qing nodded.

“Good, it’s worth it to have Brother Jiang Shi’s help, regardless of the losses in this battle, hahaha…”

Lu Zhongshan laughed heartily, his voice hearty.

But Jiang Shi frowned, shook his head slightly, and said, “Marshal Lu, don’t be so quick to laugh. I’m not here to pledge allegiance; Zhao Qing asked me to help and I saved your son. He agreed to give me the secret manual of the Barbarian Elephant Divine Skill in exchange. I’m here to collect the debt.”

“To collect a debt?”

Lu Zhongshan was slightly stunned.

“Yes, Marshal, both the young master and I were trapped, and I had no choice but to make this deal. I hope the Marshal will fulfill the promise.”

Zhao Qing said somberly.

“Father, just give him the Barbarian Elephant Divine Skill.”

Lu Chengtian spoke.

“So that’s how it is.”

Lu Zhongshan understood, showing a complex expression, and sighed with regret, “Alright, I can give you the Barbarian Elephant Divine Skill, but I’m seriously injured right now and have no pen and ink on hand. Brother, could you wait a bit until I stabilize my injuries, then I’ll find pen and ink to write it for you,

besides, just having the secret manual of the Barbarian Elephant Divine Skill is not enough. Some special herbs are required to cultivate successfully, and these herbs are currently at the base. If brother is not in a hurry, you can return with us to the base, I can give you a portion of these herbs as well!”

“Return to the base?”

Jiang Shi frowned.

“Yes, Brother Jiang, as you can see, aside from this weapon, what else do I have left?”

Lu Zhongshan said with a bitter smile.

Jiang Shi pondered.

“Alright, I’ll spend a few more days with you all.”

Anyway, this much time has already passed, so I don’t mind waiting a bit longer.

“That’s good, thank you, brother!”

Lu Zhongshan cupped his hands solemnly, unable to stop coughing again, blood oozing from his mouth and nose. He quickly sat cross-legged on the ground and continued to recover.
