World of Cultivation - Volume 06 - All Hail Our King

by Fang Xiang

  When had Mo Cloud Sea ever been defeated like this? Hearing Zuo Mo's words, flames of anger rose in the eyes of the people who had been feeling frustrated.

  Zuo Mo was unusually angry. His eyes flashed with burning light like a wolf in the darkness. "They will regret starting this."

  "Yes!" Lil' Miss' black expression returned to normal and a smile like that of the neighbor's boy came back. "This kind of small scale infiltration is actually more advantageous for us. We have a smaller territory and is easier to defend. They are larger and there are openings everywhere. It will be difficult to prevent infiltration. Also, we do not need to limit ourselves to transportation formations. Attack any storage depots, any resource jie, if we get to their rear, we can cause pandemonium."

  Lil' Miss' words immediately opened a door. All kinds of inspiration rose.

  "Yes, we can assassinate important people."

  "It is more profitable to assassinate those people who are not in high positions but are very important. For example, the masters in charge of managing production. Their guards will not be strong, the danger is low, and the benefit is high."

  "Disrupt the peace … …"

  "Ambush transportation boats … …"

  "There's a place that you all forget, the place that teaches battle generals. If we get that, ha, that place is rich! Maybe we can end a future genius battle general, that would be profitable!"

  "We need to plan for escape … …"

  "We need to divide and conquer … …"

  The conference room that had just been deathly silent was now in heated discussion.

  As he listened, even Zuo Mo, the start of all this, felt a cold wave up his back. How could these people be so devious … …

  ———

  Bie Han looked at the paper crane that came from the rear and then crushed it before throwing it to the side. "Have the jinzhi been built?"

  "The construction has finished," Ma Fan responded. He was filled with puzzlement. Daren had acted the opposite of his usual strategy and built large amounts of jinzhi here as though he was building a great defense line.

  "Report on the progress of the battalions." Bie Han's voice was icy.

  Ma Fan shook and then hurried to report. "The Tangzi Battalion have already taken Eastern Spring Jie, finished reorganizing, and are waiting for next orders. A Zha Ge Battalion need three more days to reach their destination. However, they have already been detected by the scouts from the Mo Marshal Alliance. The Grey Camp have arrived at the ambush spot without attracting any attention."

  "Is there any movement from the reinforcements at Bright Mountain Jie?"

  "There are two mo marshal battalions, one of them is seven days away, the other further away, and will most likely arrive in twenty days," Ma Fan reported.

  Ma Fan had fought alongside Lil' Miss since a long time ago, and always admired Lil' Miss' powerful calculation. This time, when he followed Bie Han, he found to his shock that Bie Han was also precise and accurate in this field.

  "Tangzi Battalion will keep resting, A Zha Ge Battalion will follow the original plan." Bie Han's orders were clean and brisk.

  "Yes!" Ma Fan hurriedly answered.

  "You are stationed here. Your mission is to stop the enemy battalion from making any sudden attacks," Bie Han said.

  "Yes!" Ma Fan crisply acknowledged. Then he carefully asked, "Daren, you … …"

  "I will attack the reinforcements." Bie Han treasured words like gold.

  Ma Fan's face turned white. "Bright Mountain Jie has two mo marshal battalions … …"

  "Just guard the defense line." Bie Han was expressionless.

  Ma Fan finally understood why Daren had built this defense line that seemed completely unnecessary. However, even with the defensive line, when Ma Fan thought of the two mo marshal battalions they were facing, he still felt a great pressure.

  Even though Ma Fan's battalion was one of the best in defense from Mo Cloud Sea, he had never fought against a mo marshal battalion before. Any battalion led by a mo marshal was astoundingly powerful.

  However, Bie Han clearly did not intend to explain more to him. He led Sin Battalion to disappear in the darkness.

  Editor's note: And so, the terrorist organization known as ….. was born.

  Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo needs to start his own spy network among the xiuzhe.

  Chapter 759: Wolf-Head Thousand Monster Camp

  "I'm Fei Lei." Fei Lei was surprised by Liang Wei's youth but he quickly disguised the surprise in his eyes.

  "I am Liang Wei." Liang Wei could see the other's surprise but he did not care. No matter who it was, they mostly reacted the same way when they saw his youthful face.

  Fei Lei's weathered face was filled with an experienced and steady presence. This caused Liang Wei to be filled with anticipation towards his battalion.

  Fei Lei did not like to waste his words. He said directly, "Please come with me."

  The group entered a concealed mountain valley. Through the narrow mouth of the valley, the space suddenly broadened out. A wave of noise came, the shouts of youths, and Liang Wei's heart beat uncontrollably.

  Entering his view were thousands of youths furiously cultivating. The white mist from the evaporation of sweat, dirt flying into the air, angry shouts and curses, constant explosions, the activity assaulted Liang Wei's senses.

  Liang Wei entered a daze, and Fei Lei's voice sounded distant to his ear.

  "They are all individually outstanding. At the beginning, they cultivated mo skills and then changed to shen power. Each of them has a unique bloodline, and they do not have any barriers in the area of cultivation. They have progressed quickly. Up until now, they are still in the stage of rapid advancement. The length of this stage will be based on their age and talent, from about three to ten years."

  Fei Lei was completely familiar with these youths that he had travelled over mountains and oceans to find and teach.

  "They are outstanding in power compared to those of their age cohort. They can even match the disciples of those large sects and the prestigious families. We have excavated the power they possess in their blood. This is also the help that I can give them. However, regretfully, they are very immature as a battalion, and can only create a basic formation."

  Liang Wei refocused and was surprised. From his observation, these youths were as Fei Lei said, outstanding individually and a match for the elite battalions that he had seen before. So many good talents, how could their higher-ups missed them? He didn't know the power of his higher-ups but he knew that the mysterious faction would not lack for battle generals. At least Pu Pu himself was very powerful, and he would not be ignorant of the value of these strong outstanding youths.

  It did not require a strong battle general to carry out normal battalion training.

  However, his idleness in these years had sharpened his self-control. He asked without a change in expression, "Do they lack a battle general to guide them?"

  A grimace flashed across Fei Lei's weathered features. He shook his head, "That's not so."

  As expected, there was a problem! Liang Wei showed an intent expression.

  Fei Lei said coolly, "Their bloodlines were activated which caused their individual power to skyrocket. Their shen power cultivation benefited even more. However, the activated bloodlines caused there hidden personalities to take over, and they are very strange now."

  "Strange?" Liang Wei had a puzzled expression.

  Fei Lei glanced at Liang Wei, a hint of sympathy flashing through the depths of his eyes. "Yes, very strange."

  He pointed randomly to a youth sitting in meditation in the corner. "He is Ying Rong, he will meditate for fourteen hours each day without exception. Anyone that goes within ten zhang of him would receive his unconscious and indiscriminate attack."

  "Unconscious and indiscriminate … …" Liang Wei gaped, his expression shocked.

  "Yes." Fei Lei seemed to not see Liang Wei's expression and said, "That's his instinct.
While he will sincerely apologize to you after the matter, you may not be able to hear it then."

  "Why?" Liang Wei stilled.

  "Because if you are not seriously injured and unconscious, you are likely dead," Fei Lei said expressionlessly. "Look."

  As he spoke, he picked up a stone and threw at Ying Rong.

  The rock drew out a crescent in the air and flew within ten zhang of Ying Rong.

  Ying Rong who was in a meditative trance shook and then opened his eyes. Shockingly, his eyes were completely white with no pupils. He jumped up and gave a strange snarl. Midair, his body suddenly gave off countless blade-like red energies.

  Hundreds of red energies headed like a storm towards the rock flying at him.

  Poof!

  The fist-sized rock was immediately turned into powder.

  Ying Rong's body bounced and flew back to his original spot back in meditation.

  The powder drifted down. Liang Wei's mouth was open, his expression dazed.

  "Ying Rong's problem is not that bad because other than the fourteen hours in meditation, there is ten hours where he is in a normal state." Fei Lei pointed at a half-naked large man. "He is Guang Long, he has the rare dragon bloodline that causes him to enter a berserker state. Once his battlelust is stirred, he will tear apart everything around him. It is very dangerous to spar with him."

  Guang Long's body was like a metal tower, his muscles bulging and giving off a great pressure. His blood red eyes moved around as though he was hunting for prey to fill his stomach.

  After a moment, Liang Wei said in a rusty voice, "Is … … are all of them like this?"

  Fei Lei nodded. "Give or take. They are born with the power of the bloodline, and the dangers come as well. However, there is one thing you can be certain of. They listen to orders. Of course, that's when they are normal."

  The battle generals around Liang Wei that had accompanied him had ashen expressions. In their eyes, these youths were dangerous monsters that would consume them at any time.

  We wanted to be battle generals, not beast trainers … …

  They cried tears inside.

  They greatly regretted agreeing to taking this job. Many people had the impulse to chop off their hands. Why hadn't they resisted the temptation of the rewards? They should have thought of this, anyone that pays a wage has a black heart … …

  Liang Wei's expression gradually recovered from being pale. Then a vicious look flashed through his eyes.

  The wolf battle general who had once gone alone into the enemy released that blood-stained killing intent and determined presence once he made his decision.

  A look flashed through Fei Lei's eyes. He was shocked. It seemed this person that the higher ups sent this time was someone good.

  The other battle generals were stimulated by that sharp and vicious killing intent. They finally remembered that Liang Wei was not the same as them, he was a battle general who had truly experienced the cruelest of fighting!

  The youths that were training were all sensitive and immediately noticed the astounding killing intent. They stopped and looked over.

  Who was this person … … he clearly looked so weak but he possessed such a murderous presence … …

  Liang Wei smiled, and showed his wolf-like teeth that seemed to have blood on them.

  "This battalion will be called the Wolf-head Thousand Monster Camp!"

  ———

  "What's Bie Han's goal?" Quan Pei tried to make his voice sound normal but people familiar with him could still hear the anxiety contained within.

  His second-in-command had been with him for many years and could hear this in his voice. He couldn't help but be shocked. This was the first time he had seen Daren so unconfident. Was Bie Han so strong?

  He thought and then asked, "What is Daren worried about?"

  Quan Pei was tall, and his hair was white in places. He was not young, but his presence was elegant and gave people an endearing feeling.

  He was not young when he became a marshal, and didn't have the desire to compete with others. Due to this, he did not hesitate when he was invited to join the Mo Marshal Alliance. He was not outstanding among the mo marshals of the alliance but he was a steady person with a good and gentle nature. Due to his popularity, and his familiarity with the military, he was assigned to an important position.

  Quan Pei knew his abilities. He knew that he wasn't some great general and so he did not compete. Even in these turbulent times, he hoped that he could peacefully live out his remaining days and benefit his descendants.

  He had never thought that there would be a day that he would be forced to face a top battle general like Bie Han.

  In these past years, the mo territories had completely changed. Many of the old great names continued to disappear and many unheard of names shone and ascended in this new era.

  Quan Pei knew he was old in age, and could not keep up with this changing era.

  Just as he knew that nothing good would come of this mission.

  Bie Han was a person that was ranked as a top ten battle general in the xiuzhe world . This showed his power. This was a true top battle general. Battle generals of this level were not ones that he could win against. In the Mo Marshal Alliance, probably only the young battle generals of the new era, like Xi, Shang Yu Sheng, and Hai Jin Yun who would match him.

  Quan Pei grimaced inside. Seven years, a change in era. Marshal Di and the others were still the leaders but they all knew that with each passing day, they got closer to the passing of the torch -the death of an era. Shen power was the root cause pushing all this.

  It could be seen from the inner structure of the alliance. The higher-ups started to deliberately set up a path for the new generation that cultivated shen power. More and more young people started to take up important positions.

  The Mo Marshal Alliance was not the only one, most of the mo powers were doing the same, the only exception was the Mo Shen Temple.

  Shang Yu Sheng Battalion, and Hai Jin Yun Battalion were racing to reinforce this area. The alliance also knew that Quan Pei alone could not stop Bie Han.

  "Nothing, I am worried about nothing. have everyone stay alert and be on their guard." Quan Pei exhaled deeply, his voice finally returning to normal. He was an experienced battle general. He knew how great the damage to the battalion's morale was if the main commander did not appear calm.

  He only needed to delay Bie Han and fight for the time needed for the reinforcements to arrive.

  When he thought of this, he felt slightly more confident. Shang Yu Sheng and Hai Jin Yun were the genius battle generals that had appeared in the Mo Marshal Alliance in these past years. They were young but possessed unparalleled talent. They had proven their strength in cruel battles. If it wasn't for them, the expansion of the Mo Shen Temple would be even more difficult to restrain.

  The two of them were top battle generals as well!

  If he could delay Bie Han … … two top battle generals were about to arrive. Bie Han definitely would not have it easy. Maybe, they could kill Bie Han! Quan Pei was filled with confidence in the two genius youths of the alliance.

  Suddenly, Quan Pei who felt slightly more reassured looked into the distance and his pupils contracted!

  An intimidating battalion had silently appeared on his right flank.

  Bie Han!

  Editor's note: Use it damn it.

  Translator Ramblings: Two of the blood summons finally met up. Pu Yao really works people to the death. Also, the camp name is a terrible one. WanderingGummiOfDoom already mentioned it.

  Chapter 760: Zong Ru and Yi Qing

  Yi Zheng's expression was nervous and concerned. He didn't dare to look away from Zong Ru's face.

  Zong Ru's appearance had changed greatly. While Zong Ru had been of average appearance before, he had a strong body like most dhyana xiu. Yet now Zong Ru's body was thin, his cheeks sunken. Only his eyes were bright as though he could see through everything. There was always a small warm and f
riendly smile on his face.

  The red lotus on his forehead was like holy fire.

  Zong Ru's withered fingers moved away from Yi Zheng's Shixiong's body.

  "Master Zong, how is my shixiong? Are there any solutions?" Yi Zheng's heart was in his throat.

  Yi Zheng's Shixiong also opened his eyes which flashed with shock. Actually, he had been greatly shocked when he saw Zong Ru. The other's thin body had clearly been caused by the constant corrosion of wish power, but that pair of shining eyes seemed to pierce straight into his heart.

  It was the first time that he had the feeling that someone was unfathomable in power.

  And when Zong Ru's two fingers touched his wrist, the gentle and pure shen power caused him to feel a rare comfort and made him relax.

  "There are no big problems." Zong Ru smiled, his voice filled with a comforting power. Yi Zheng's heart immediately calmed.

  Joy came onto Yi Zheng's face. "I just knew that Master Zong could heal Shixiong!"

  Zong Ru smiled slightly. A jade scroll appeared on his hand that he handed to Yi Zheng's shixiong.

  "This is a record of some of the things I learned during my seclusion and a method to cultivate shen power. As long as you cultivate according to this, in a short time, you will heal. Your skill in Samadhi is rare and will be beneficial to your cultivation."

  Zong Ru then turned and said to Yi Zheng. "Cultivate together with your shixiong. If you have any questions, ask your shixiong."

  "Many thanks, Master Zong!"

  The two gratefully thanked him.

  Zong Ru waved his hands. "There's no need to be so courteous, but you will not be able to tell others of this cultivation method."

  The two gravely acknowledged with solemn expressions.

  A moment later, Zong Ru suddenly raised his head and with a deep gaze said, "In a few months, your wounds will start to recover. There is something that I want to ask of you."

  Yi Zheng hurriedly said, "Master Zong please speak of any matter!"
