Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

Now, not only must ample preparations be made for the deployment of the frontier army, but Jun Wuxie himself must also prepare.

Generally speaking, martial practitioners completely disregard national armies of this level.

However, that only applies to martial practitioners at the Grandmaster realm and above.

Below the Grandmaster realm, when facing the onslaught of a large army, unless one flees far away to avoid the brunt of the attack, being surrounded would only lead to death from exhaustion of true energy.

Every country's army has battle formations to kill powerful individuals.

The Xilin army has the Massacre Formation, and the Great Zhou army also has similar formations.

He is very confident in his own endurance in battle and doesn't worry about being exhausted to death like martial practitioners who cultivate true energy.

However, Xilin is a place of hidden dangers, and the army not only has soldiers who can form the Massacre Formation, but there must also be powerful individuals sent by their supporting forces behind the scenes.

Those powerful individuals, amidst the vast army, could very likely pose a significant threat to him.

"It should be people from the Black Demon Sect, but how dare this Black Demon Sect openly participate in the conflicts between mortal kingdoms?"

Jun Wuxie couldn't help but ponder.

Ross's son, Luo Mao, the Marshal of Xilin, is a disciple of the Black Demon Sect.

With this dual identity, it is natural for him to participate in the war.

If other members of the Black Demon Sect, people who have no direct relationship with the Xilin court, also participate, then the problem is not so simple.

The supreme forces of the world have long established rules that people from the cultivation world cannot participate in the conflicts between mortal countries, unless they originally had a special status in that country.

"If the Black Demon Sect is truly behind Xilin, what is their intention? How dare they directly intervene like this? Could it be that there is an existence behind the Black Demon Sect that even the supreme forces fear, providing them with support?"

What in the world could make the supreme forces fear, and collectively so?

Jun Wuxie naturally thought of one organization.

The Soul Hunting Hall!

The moment this name popped into his head, his heart leaped violently.

Soul Hunting Hall, Black Demon Sect, Xilin.

No matter how he thought about it, it was difficult to connect these three.

Xilin is just a country in the mortal world, a low-level force.

Low-level forces cannot even be considered forces in the cultivation world; only mid-level forces can be considered to have stepped into the threshold of cultivation forces.

What is the Soul Hunting Hall?

That is an existence standing at the pinnacle of the pyramid, leaving a dark mark on many epochs and eras.

The two are too far apart; how could there be a connection?

Jun Wuxie felt that he might be overthinking, but he couldn't completely rule out the possibility.

"I should still be careful and see what Xilin does next."

After thinking about it this way, he began to cultivate the second half of the Primordial Soldier Disassembly Art inside the Eternal Life Shrine.

This night was destined to be uneventful.

On the western border of Great Zhou, along the thousands of miles of border line, in more than a dozen cities and passes, as well as the small strongholds and passes between these cities, armies were on the move.

More than three million soldiers, led by generals at all levels of the border army, were setting off towards designated locations.

At the same time, Ji Yinlan's Black Armored Army also mobilized.

However, the Black Armored Army camp was silent, showing no signs of activity.

To avoid the sound of the armor during the march, all the Black Armored Army soldiers removed their Black Armor, wrapped the armor in cloth and carried it on their shoulders, even took off their combat boots, and force-marched at extremely high speed through the cold mountains and forests of the frontier.

The border line was very long, and some areas were extremely cold, with heavy snow falling.

The biting cold wind blowing on their faces was like a knife, and stepping barefoot on the ground was excruciatingly painful.

In some low-temperature areas, the temperature even dropped to below minus one hundred degrees!

Such harsh weather was extremely unbearable even for the Black Armored Army soldiers who had Innate Realm cultivation.

Their feet were frozen, and their faces were chapped by the cold wind.

They marched hundreds of miles without any interruption along the way.

The eyes of every Black Armored Army soldier seemed to be burning with flames.

Their bodies were cold, but their blood was boiling!

Some Black Armored Army soldiers fell on the march and froze into ice sculptures.

They opened their eyes, looking towards the direction of the destination of this march on the border, and the natural light reflected in their ice-crystal eyeballs was like refracting the eternal and brilliant light in their hearts.

… …

At the same time, outside the border, the Xilin army was also in action.

Six million soldiers, led by hundreds of commanders, were making pre-war preparations to enter the pass.

Xilin's main marshal camp.

Marshal Ross sat upright in the marshal's seat, his eyes chillingly terrifying.

The man in black who discussed matters with Qin Shan in the City Lord's Mansion was now beside Ross.

"Mao'er is dead. My son died in Shunyi City like this!"

Ross slowly closed his eyes, and flame-like true energy rose from his body. The whole person was like a lion about to go berserk!

"Qin Shan promised to capture Jun Wuxie alive and hand him over to the Marshal for disposal at that time."

The black-robed man said this.

"Jun Wuxie, this marshal will naturally deal with him! After conquering Great Zhou, capture all those related to that Jun surname, and slowly humiliate and torture them to death in front of him! Let him experience well the feeling of watching his relatives, friends, and loved ones die tragically in front of him, and then draw his tendons and skin him!" Ross was extremely cold: "Qin Shan! Don't even think about having a good time. After completely taking down Great Zhou, slowly clean him up!"

The man in black said: "Hmph, Qin Shan is still dreaming of becoming an emperor. He thinks that the border army is brave and good at fighting and can cut off our retreat. If our army wants to penetrate deeply into Great Zhou, we dare not fail to fulfill our promises. This person is cunning and deep-thinking, but he is ridiculously naive in this matter."

"He is not naive, but has a fatal weakness. This weakness makes him take risks and become stupid! No matter how meticulous a person's mind is, once he loses control over his inner desires, he can only become a tool to be used."

"Marshal is right." The man in black nodded and said: "Are we going to guard against Qin Shan this time and change the main strategic goal?"

"There is no need, nor is it realistic." Ross stood up, looked at the war sandbox, pointed between Shunyi and the capital, and said: "If you want to reach the capital of Great Zhou at the smallest cost in a short period of time and end the regime ruled by the Xuanyuan descendants, there is only this way to go. The road from Shunyi to the capital is relatively wide, and there are relatively few mountains, which is conducive to the marching and combat of our Xilin army. The roads in other passes are narrow, which is not conducive to us. Once we encounter resistance, we will have to pay a greater price and more time!"

"Our main force will go all the way from Shunyi, conquering cities and territories, and the spearhead will point directly at the capital of Great Zhou. Other army corps will advance into Great Zhou from different passes, so as to form a mutually echoing situation. If we encounter Great Zhou gathering troops to besiege our main force, the rest of our army can counter-encircle from the various routes on both wings!"

"Strive to occupy the capital of Great Zhou within two months and occupy the entire territory of Great Zhou in half a year! As long as Great Zhou is destroyed, taking this as a springboard, our army can directly take all the countries that were split from the Xuanyuan Empire back then!"

"Marshal is ambitious, but do we really want to slaughter all the countries we occupy?"

"There is an ancient saying in Great Zhou that non-our race must have different hearts. In this world of mortals, it is enough to have only our Xilin race. All other races are inferior. What is the use of keeping them? Besides, we promised that person to slaughter every city and leave no grass wherever the iron cavalry passes!"

"Marshal, who is that person?" The man in black said: "Why does he have to slaughter the people of various countries?"

"If you want to survive, don't ask too much!"

Ross's eyes were very cold, and the killing intent was strong.

The man in black trembled slightly and stopped talking about the topic, and said: "Qin Shan wants us to contain Ji Yinlan's master, this old fox, if we don't do what he says, he may be timid."

"This is not a problem." Ross sneered: "That person must have already sent someone to do it. Ji Yinlan's master is in danger and has no energy to take care of things here. Ji Yinlan is our obstacle. This woman is only nineteen years old, but she has outstanding military talent, commands the army well, and her own strength is very terrifying! As long as she is here, it will be difficult for us to enter Great Zhou."

"But she is always too young and fell into Qin Shan's hands. This Qin Shan has great ambitions, and that is why we can remove obstacles." The man in black said with a smile.

"Well, there is one Ji Yinlan, and now there is one more Jun Wuxie." Ross's face was full of coldness, and said: "However, it doesn't matter, the two of them will soon fall into the hands of this marshal, and there will be no more threats from now on!"

… …

Shunyi Marshal's Mansion.

All day long, Jun Wuxie was a little nervous.

He didn't know what the situation of the Black Armored Army was now.

If the Black Armored Army wants to encircle and annihilate the Xilin iron cavalry, they must arrive at their respective destinations tonight in order to have enough time to deploy and prepare.

But the Black Armored Army is really a bit far from those places.

The climate on the border is also very bad.

The climate in this Shunyi City is good, but other places are different, and some areas are very cold.

Ji Yinlan was silent and didn't speak all day.

They were all waiting quietly.

Until night.

She quietly sneaked out of the mansion, went to the secret stronghold, and got the latest news from the Black Armored Army.

After coming back, she told Jun Wuxie, and then she completely relaxed.

The Black Armored Army had all arrived at the designated positions and were starting to deploy.

They started to act, sneaking out of Shunyi City in the middle of the night, and each went to different military sub-district camps to carry out beheading operations.

It was not difficult for Jun Wuxie and Ji Yinlan to kill Qin Shan's confidant generals silently.

Each of them traveled more than ten thousand miles back and forth. After the matter was settled, they returned to Shunyi, and the sky was already dawning.

Next, they recharged their batteries and prepared to welcome the arrival of the last moment!

At dusk, the horn of the frontier war will sound.

At that time, Qin Shan will let Ji Yinlan go to the City Lord's Mansion to discuss matters.

At that time, a grand battle would begin!

Jun Wu Xie felt a little nervous.

He was the main planner of this event.

He didn't have absolute certainty that he could win a great victory.

Having no war experience, he was very worried about failure.

After all, this was not just his personal matter. Once he failed, hundreds of thousands, even millions, of Xuanjia soldiers would die because of his decision!

"Wu Xie, don't be nervous."

Ji Yinlan saw his state.

"I'm fine."

Jun Wu Xie took a deep breath, his palms were sweaty.

He had never been so nervous, no matter what life-or-death situation he faced.

But this time was different, he carried the lives of millions of soldiers!
