What really happened was different from what Zhao Wenhao and others had
thought. Jiang Chen figured out the solution right away.
He was able to demolish the ward, but it would be more difficult than the
deployment of it.
Not to mention that he only had 100 soldiers from the Red Flame Battalion.
He would be at his wit’s end if he hadn’t had the eight exploitation vehicles
with him. In that case, he would have left the battlefield as quickly as possible.
When the team had come back to the periphery of the city, Jiang Chen
confirmed his assumption.
The Third Legion had spies. However perfect his plan was, he wouldn’t have
been able to anticipate that.

The ward has been successfully deployed. The battlefield will be dominated
by the Dragon Rebel Army soon. With our current ability, we’ll only be able to
save the three troops and the four battalions.

Jiang Chen said.

General, tell us. What do you want us to do?
Tang Zhengyi and other
soldiers were willing to take the responsibility. They would listen to whatever
Jiang Chen said without any second opinion.

The energies the eight vehicles are carrying are practicing resources as well
as strategic resources. I’ll combine them and use them on you.


It will greatly enhance your strength. All of you will be Venerables.

When he had finished, he saw shock on Tang Zhengyi and others’ faces.
Even though they trusted Jiang Chen, it was still hard to believe all of them
would become Venerables.

But it’s only temporary. It’ll only last five minutes. You’ll be exhausted after
that, but you’ll be safe, and it’ll facilitate your practice in the future.


General, in that case, let’s start right away,
Tang Zhengyi said in a hurry.

It’ll be a painful process. If one-tenth of you fail to persist, the whole plan will
fail. So I have to ask you to promise me that you’ll try your best to persist,

Jiang Chen said seriously.

There are no cowards in the Red Flame Battalion!

Tang Zhengyi and others apparently didn’t think it a big deal at the mention of
pains.

Good.

Jiang Chen opened the doors of the exploitation vehicles. The Black Yellow
Gases in them were half solid. They were sticky and dense, and black.
At first sight, there was nothing special about them. It would occur to no one
that they were precious resources.
It was partly true, since the current Black Yellow Gas couldn’t be used yet.
If the Black Yellow Gas was to be used as the energy source of weapons,
they would have to be turned into oil through some special method.
If practicers wanted to use them, they should be turned into gas and be
absorbed slowly.
Jiang Chen could achieve either of them and use the gas to serve whatever
purpose he had.
He asked Tang Zhengyi and others to recite some special heart sutra silently
while sitting on the ground in different locations.
When everything was ready, he changed the Black Yellow Gas into gas and
let it shroud them.
About 15 minutes later, Tang Zhengyi and others’ energies became stronger
and stronger. When their energies had gathered, they almost formed the
eighth beam of light on the battlefield.
Not far away, Eunuch Cao also noticed it, but he didn’t launch an attack right
away. He only told the Inspection Guard in the city to stay on guard.

It must be Jiang Chen who has caused the disturbance!

Under the city wall, Zhao Wenhao and others also saw the golden beam.
Pleasantly surprised, their frustration was gone.

Kill them all!

Eunuch Cao didn’t wait for Jiang Chen’s attack. He gave the order, intending
to kill all of the senior generals of the three troops and the four battalions.
But Jiang Chen beat him to it. The golden beam disappeared soon.
Then, they all perceived such a dreadful energy coming from out of the city
that they didn’t even have to confirm it with their own eyes.
It felt like the energy of a great Venerable, or a giant prehistoric beast.
It was as fast as lightening. Before the average defenses could aim at it, their
enemy had bumped onto the wall hard.
The city wall collapsed in an instant. A troop, seemingly made of gold, dashed
into the city.
It was only a team of 100 people, but everyone was Venerable. The formation
they made up of was even stronger.
Jiang Chen was among them, too. Already a Venerable, he hadn’t got as
much help as the others.
Because to benefit as much as the others, he would need all of the Black
Yellow Gas loaded in the eight vehicles, and more.
To make 100 people have the strength of Venerable in three minutes cost
eight vehicles of Black Yellow Gas. None of the nine forces in the Realm of
Milky could afford that.
With such a valuable investment, there was no way the Inspection Guard
could resist.
Holding the Redcloud Sword in hand, Jiang Chen came up to Eunuch Cao.
He killed the eunuch with a clear cut.

You…

Things changed so fast. It was like a dream.
Eunuch Cao was so complacent one minute ago, but instantly, he was in a
complete mess, and had no more chance to turn the tide.
Even Zhao Wenhao and the other imprisoned guys didn’t feel pleasantly
surprised at the sight of his death. They only felt it unreal.
The team of 100 people killed the elites among the elites in the city in a
second.
Then Jiang Chen destroyed the ward in the city again. In this way, the ward of
the seven cities disappeared again.

Jiang Chen! Quick! Let’s go back to the war ship quickly.
Zhao Wenhao had
no time to celebrate. At the thought of the current situation, he was going to
take Jiang Chen’s unconquerable team to resolve the crisis.

They’ve almost reached their limits. They can’t have another fight. We
shouldn’t feel relieved now. Don’t forget they don’t have to switch on the ward
in this city. Maybe they’ll find another city to replace this one instantly.

Jiang Chen said,
We lost. Let’s retreat as soon as possible.


…

Glancing at the battle group with great casualties, Zhao Wenhao felt
complicated. Even though he was unwilling to admit it, he knew Jiang Chen
was right.
A dazzling light came from overhead when he was about to say something.
They saw a ball of white light over the battlefield, like the burning sun hanging
high in the sky.

It’s the Third Legion’s portal. We’ll retreat to the Realm of True Force!
Zhao
Wenhao said excitedly.
At the same time, they heard General Du Zhenfei’s voice coming from the
generals’ tokens.

Whatever, retreat!


Quick! As long as we go through the portal, we’ll be safe.

The three troops and the four battalions in the city flew into the air. Only less
than one-third of them were still alive, and all of them were injured.
The portal wasn’t a mirror through which they could arrive at the destination
immediately. It was a long passage.
The battle groups of the Third Legion came one after another, ready to go
back to disclose Eunuch Cao’s conspiracy.

Fortunately Jiang Chen destroyed the ward. Otherwise the portal wouldn’t
have been open. Destroy the ward,
the commander of the Shadow Pursuing
Troop said excitedly.

Otherwise the Third Legion would have been eliminated here somehow.

The three troops and the four battalions had entered the portal. The end of the
passage was covered by white lights, leading to the Realm of True Force.

What’s going on?

But soon, many soldiers felt a strong resistance which impeded their advance.
And it happened to many of them, especially soldiers from the eight battalions
of the lower troop, including Jiang Chen.

People without the totem of flying dragon won’t be able to reach the Realm of
True Force. Figure out a way to retreat so that you can survive.

The voice of another senior general came.
The portal consumed many energies. It was impossible for everyone to pass
since it had been open in such a haste.
What the general had said made people curse in anger.
