"How dare you be so arrogant within the territory of Feng An Divine Dynasty!"
Fei Liang Gong rose in anger and immediately gave orders.
He had held a sliver of hope, but now that the enemy's movements were clear, there was nothing more to say. Once a war started, it wouldn't be easily stopped. Moreover, with the reinforcements of the Yaoguang Divine Dynasty, led by King Bu Pinglong, their fate was still uncertain.
"Your Highness, the enemy has advanced deep into our territory and likely has no time to set up a grand formation. We implore Your Highness for assistance!"
Wu Leyu and Liao Ti rose simultaneously and bowed to Bu Pinglong.
"My Lords, our two dynasties are now in the same boat. Since I have led my troops into your territory, how can I allow the Great Han to run rampant!"
"I shall recall my troops immediately. No matter the cost, we must crush this Kui Niu Legion today!!"
Bu Pinglong's eyes were bloodshot, as if about to bleed.
"Many thanks, Your Highness!"
Fei Liang Gong and the other two rejoiced. With the aid of the Yaoguang Divine Dynasty, Feng An would not suffer the same fate as Tian Yuan Sect and Yu Hua Divine Dynasty.
"Prepare the troops for battle!!"
"Ching!"
After sending Bu Pinglong off, Fei Liang Gong's face was filled with killing intent. He drew the long sword at his waist and looked at the many generals in the tent.
"Your subordinate receives the order!"
All the generals in the tent solemnly accepted the command.
The battlefield was the place where generals and soldiers rose to prominence. To die in battle was to sacrifice oneself for the country. To return alive from the battlefield meant high office, titles, and endless prosperity!
Half an hour later.
At the encampment of the Feng An Divine Dynasty's army, a million soldiers advanced in unison, their bloodthirsty aura soaring to the heavens. The million-strong army formed a wedge formation, marching towards the invasion route of the Kui Niu Legion!
To the northwest of the Feng An Divine Dynasty's army, Bu Pinglong led fifty thousand troops, arrayed in a long snake formation. The great snake slithered forward, concealing its presence and blending perfectly with the forest. With Bu Pinglong's control, they moved as if treading on flat ground, silent and unseen!
A colorless scent of blood permeated the forest. The Kui Niu Legion made no attempt to conceal their invasion route. Once the army entered the forest, due to the peculiar climate and location, long-distance flight was practically impossible for living beings.
This place was similar to the Blood Sea Hanging Coffins, devoid of any rules!
The three armies carved a path through the forest, their fierce auras escalating!
"Reporting to the Grand General, the Great Han Kui Niu Legion has entered our formation!"
Soon, a scout galloped forward, dismounted, and reported.
Fei Liang Gong ordered the army to halt their advance. He unfurled a scroll in his hand, which displayed the appearance of the entire ancient forest.
Clearly marked were six green symbols. These were grand formations established by the Feng An Divine Dynasty at the founding of the dynasty to secure its western borders. For millions of years, they had never been put to use.
"The Great Han has attacked unexpectedly, and it is too late for us to set up a new grand formation. We can only resort to the trump card of this place!"
"The Great Han is different from other powers. This battle concerns the destiny of our Divine Dynasty. I believe the Divine Emperor will not punish me!"
Fei Liang Gong looked at Wu Leyu and Liao Ti.
"Use it. The Divine Dynasty is on the brink of crisis."
Wu Leyu nodded.
"Weng~~"
Fei Liang Gong extended his palm, and a black pupil appeared in his palm, flashing with dark light, directly activating the six grand formations!
Boom!
Six earth-shattering roars echoed through the ancient forest, the ground rumbled, and six faint green pillars of light shot up into the sky, forming a tight encirclement.
"Is this the means of their Feng An?"
To the northwest, Bu Pinglong looked up coldly at the six faint green pillars of light in the sky.
The founding Divine Emperor of the Feng An Divine Dynasty was not without his abilities. If I were trapped within, the danger would be immeasurable!
"Continue the advance!"
Bu Pinglong cast a deep glance. This Divine Dynasty, which he had never taken seriously, had given him a slight surprise. After a few breaths of pause, he roared and continued to lead his troops towards the outer edge of the formation!
Boom!
The radiance of the six pillars of light grew stronger, forming a barrier between them. Runes flowed within, and the terrifying aura was no less than that of a million soldiers.
"Order the army to advance at full speed, convert the wedge formation to a crescent formation, and quickly surround the grand formation!"
Watching the scroll turn to dust, Fei Liang Gong immediately ordered the army to advance. The Kui Niu Legion was now sealed within the grand formation and would have difficulty escaping for a while. Even if they did, half of the million-strong army would be lost.
He had this much confidence.
"Quickly convert the formation and advance towards the grand formation!"
Boom!
Generals waved their command flags, clad in armor, leading their respective armies, coordinating with the overall transformation.
Soon, the army formation was converted and advanced towards the grand formation formed by the six pillars of light!
"Commander, we have likely entered the Feng An Divine Dynasty's grand formation!"
Within the grand formation of six pillars of light, Qi Jiguang patrolled a barrier, sensing the terrifying runes on it. He returned to Fu Youde's side, his expression not tense but rather relaxed.
Not far from Fu Youde, the three main generals and deputy generals of the Kui Niu Legion remained calm!
Since they had received their orders to march, they had not hidden their movements. Their purpose was clear: their army would be open and aboveboard, not resorting to deceit.
But was that really the case!
Of course not. The second army of the Kui Niu Legion, Wang Baobao and Sun Chengzong, were not present. Before the Kui Niu Legion entered the ancient forest, the two of them had led an army to quietly infiltrate the forest in advance, specifically to scout the location of the Yaoguang Divine Dynasty's army, its commander, and its strength.
"The location of the Feng An Divine Dynasty has been scouted. Have you investigated the location of the Yaoguang Divine Dynasty's army? This grand formation should be broken as soon as possible; do not delay too long."
Fu Youde looked at the several pillars of light and said seriously.
Before leading his army in, he had anticipated that the Feng An Divine Dynasty would have some trump card, perhaps an ambush. The moment the grand formation appeared before him, its ancient aura suddenly awakened him. The Feng An Divine Dynasty was just like that.
They had to activate this ancient grand formation to stop him. How much distrust did they have in their own strength?
"It is currently unclear!"
Li Wenzhong shook his head. Bu Pinglong was well hidden and had not revealed his whereabouts.
"Then let's break the formation first. Perhaps once this grand formation is broken, we will be able to see the Yaoguang Divine Dynasty's army!"
Fu Youde shook his head and looked at the army banner behind him.
"Commander, rest assured, your subordinate will break the formation now!"
Qi Jiguang bowed and said. During his earlier reconnaissance, he had discovered several key formation eyes of this grand formation!
"Where is the Third Army of the Kui Niu Legion!!"
"Hah!"
"Hah!"
"Hah!"
All the soldiers of the Third Army roared, brandishing their blades!
"Follow me to break the formation!!"
Rumble!
A loud explosion suddenly erupted from within the army.
