Blood Hawk Hall.
The Blood Hawk King sat at the head of the hall as his scarlet pupils slowly swept across the hall. Under his indifferent gaze, the higher hierarchy of the Blood Hawk Hall did not dare to look at him.
"Wu Tian, how many Blood Eagle Guards can you control now?" Blood Eagle King looked at Wu Tian and asked faintly.
Hearing that, Wu Tian hesitated for a moment before saying, "It should be able to reach around two thousand five hundred."
Blood Hawk King's eyes narrowed as he pondered for a moment and said, "Although the number of Jiu You Guards is limited, that brat called Mu Chen has some ability, and we have to guard against him. You have to win this battle!"
"So … I want you to control all the Blood Eagle Guards!"
Wu Tian was startled and said hesitantly, "Your Excellency, with my current strength, if I were to control all the Blood Eagle Guards, I'm afraid I would be devoured by the fighting intent."
The Blood Hawk King clenched his fist and a faint red pellet appeared. Halos of spiritual light were constantly being emitted from it, along with a bizarre fluctuation that rippled out.
"This is an Ethereal Spirit Pill. When you consume it, it will allow you to temporarily enter an ethereal state. At that time, you will be able to withstand the Battle Will of the Blood Hawk Troop."
Wu Tian was overjoyed. He didn't expect the Blood Eagle King to have such a miraculous elixir. With it, he could control all the Blood Eagle Guards. In this way, it would be enough to crush Mu Chen and the Jiu You Guard.
At that time, no matter how many trump cards Mu Chen had hidden, he would lose without a doubt!
"Sir, don't worry. I will make Jiu You Palace regret offending our Blood Hawk Hall!" A sinister smile appeared on Wu Tian's face.
"If there's a chance.
Let the Jiu You Guard disappear. Without the Jiu You Guard, the Jiu You Palace is just a joke. "Blood Eagle King smiled in satisfaction.
Said.
"Yes, sir!"
Wu Tian eerily smiled. He couldn't wait to see the despair on Mu Chen's face when he appeared with the 5,000 Blood Hawk Troop.
This time, they must make Jiu You Gong lose all its face!
…
The news of the upcoming confrontation between the Jiu You Troop and the Blood Hawk Troop spread throughout the Great Heaven Domain like the wind. Unsurprisingly, it also caused an uproar in the Great Heaven Domain.
Over the years, the Blood Eagle Guard had become more and more famous in the Great Heaven Domain.
In terms of overall strength, it could almost be ranked as one of the top three legions in the Great Heaven Domain. On the other hand, the Jiu You Guard …
It belonged to the lowest level.
Therefore, in the eyes of many, the two were not on the same level at all. Therefore, they were very puzzled as to why Jiu You Palace would actually agree to this bet.
Although the Blood Eagle King's bet was extremely tempting.
But no matter how tempting the stakes were …
One had to be blessed to enjoy it.
In many people's view, the Jiu You Palace was blinded by the stakes this time and tried to fight. But didn't they think about what would happen if they lost?
At that time, the Jiu You Palace was likely to be really unable to recover. At that time, even with the support of the Sky Vulture Emperor, it would be difficult for the Jiu You Palace to gain a foothold in the Great Heaven Domain.
After all.
There were also many powerful vassal forces in the Great Heaven Domain.
These forces were always coveting the position of the various kings in the Great Heaven Domain. Because once they obtained this position, they could truly become the direct force of the Great Heaven Domain. At that time, the protection and resources that they could enjoy were far from that of ordinary vassal forces.
Therefore, this battle, the Jiu You Palace could not afford to lose.
…
While the entire Great Heaven Domain was in an uproar because of this bet, the Jiu You Palace was strangely quiet. There wasn't any news that came out. Furthermore, the security had also become even tighter, making it impossible for outsiders to know what was happening within.
In the depths of the Jiu You Palace, on a mountain peak.
Within the lush mountain peak, there was a vast flat land. At this moment, there were silhouettes donned in black armor quietly sitting on the ground. Their figures were motionless, like boulders.
In the sky above those silhouettes, there was a slender silhouette sitting in the air with his eyes closed. At this moment, he slowly opened his eyes. Light flickered on his palm and a bamboo strip that was stained with blood appeared.
The bamboo strip was in a broken state, giving off a broken feeling. However, the iron-blooded aura that blew over made no one dare to underestimate it.
Mu Chen's expression was exceptionally solemn. Holding the bamboo strip in his hand, he gently placed it on his forehead. Immediately, light surged from the bamboo strip and poured into Mu Chen's mind.
A wave of iron-blooded aura poured into Mu Chen's mind like a roaring flood. Countless battle cries soared into the sky. At that moment, it was as if he had returned to the ancient battlefield.
Ancient and bloody scenes flashed across his mind. In those scenes, he saw a black army filling the sky. They marched in an orderly manner, and every step they took caused even the heavens and earth to tremble under their feet.
That imposing manner was simply unstoppable.
Mu Chen was a little shocked as he looked at the centre of the army. There seemed to be a blurry silhouette quietly sitting there. That silhouette wasn't majestic, but anyone could tell that he was the ruler of this terrifying army with a single glance.
When Mu Chen looked over, that silhouette had also gently raised his hand.
"Fight!"
That terrifying army burst out with a thunderous roar. Shortly after, boundless Battle Will soared into the sky, causing this entire space to collapse in an instant.
Roar!
The boundless Battle Will had practically condensed into a substance as it whistled and surged, forming into a nine-headed dragon. As it roared towards the sky, the space within a hundred thousand miles in radius shattered at this moment. Thereafter, the nine-headed dragon opened its mouth and nine beams of light that were a few myriad feet in size shot out.
The target of that terrifying attack was the huge crack in the distant space. It seemed to be a lower plane, but there was a monstrous and unusual aura surging within it.
It seemed to be a Lower Plane that was occupied by the Fiend Clans!
Boom!
Terrifying beams of light filled one's eyes with indescribable speed. In a flash, they had pierced through a million miles of space and shot into the Lower Plane.
When the terrifying attack shot in, there wasn't any earth-shattering explosion that everyone had expected. The Lower Plane had been forcefully erased from the distortion of space.
At the same time, all the Fiend Clans in the Lower Plane were erased...
It was just a single move, yet a Lower Plane had been erased!
Hiss!
When Mu Chen saw this scene, he couldn't help inhaling a mouthful of chilled air. What a terrifying army, what a terrifying Battle Formation Master … looks like what Mandala said was right. In the ancient times, the pinnacle Battle Formation Masters possessed strength comparable to Heavenly Sovereigns.
Although they had to rely on the power of the army …
The ancient scene gradually collapsed, turning into fragments and disappeared. Along with the disappearance of those fragments, there seemed to be some ancient information surging in Mu Chen's heart.
Those pieces of information were somewhat tattered, since they had clearly been destroyed. However, there were some words that were occasionally revealed that were filled with profundities that made others involuntarily immersed in them.
"The Art of Battle Formations is to use strength to control them. This is the ultimate Dao."
"Controlling Heart, the supreme Dao."
"… …"
Mu Chen was immersed in those profundities for a long time before he slowly opened his eyes with a pensive look in his eyes. There wasn't any Battle Formation Cultivation Technique in this tattered bamboo scroll, but there were some things that made him comprehend them.
For example, the control of Battle Will.
Previously, when he was controlling the Battle Will of the Nine Nether Troop, he had relied on his own strength and willpower to forcefully control it. But this action seemed to be the Supreme Dao that was mentioned in the bamboo slip.
Using force to control them was the way to go.
Controlling Heart, the supreme Dao.
But how could he control the boundless Battle Will with his heart?
Mu Chen fell into his thoughts, but he couldn't find any clues for a long time. Thus, he lowered his head to look at the Jiu You Troop and gently waved his hand. Instantly, all of the Jiu You Troop roared as boundless Battle Will soared into the sky.
Mu Chen sat within the boundless Battle Will and closed his eyes to sense it.
On a mountain peak not far away, Jiu You, Tang Bing, Tang Rou and the rest were looking at the depths of the mountain with a smear of worry in their eyes.
"Big sister Jiu You, can Mu Chen really succeed?" Tang Rou asked in a soft voice.
Jiu You gently bit her rosy lips. That's because she wasn't too confident about it. After all, there were too few Battle Formation Masters, and there wasn't anyone to guide Mu Chen. So it was imaginable how difficult it would be for him to cross the threshold.
"With the Blood Hawk King's character, he will definitely do anything in this bet. If Mu Chen doesn't succeed, then our chances of winning won't be high." Tang Bing said in a worried tone.
Jiu You nodded her head as she looked at Mandala, who was sitting on the edge of the cliff, gently swinging her snow-white legs. But before she could speak, the little girl had lazily said, "Don't look for me. I shouldn't interfere in this matter. If it wasn't for the fact that I have a request, I wouldn't have helped you guys."
"So whether he can comprehend anything will depend on his own ability. This is all I can do. Otherwise, it wouldn't be befitting of my identity."
"What's your identity?" Jiu You asked in puzzlement.
Mandala did not reply. Her pair of large golden eyes were calmly looking at the slender figure in the distance. She was somewhat curious as to whether this person would be able to obtain any insights from the broken 'Battle Formation Heart'.
