Chapter 1012 - Military Forces (2/2)

Mixed together with his essential Qi, Grand Preceptor He’s furious bellow was like the sound of the evening drum and morning bell that rang in monasteries. His voice transmitted out instantly, ringing through a large part of the Divine Capital. Although it was loud, it did not feel noisy and was instead filled with a righteous feeling.

With his explosive bellow, the soldiers in the surrounding immediately backed off a few steps slowly while wearing hesitant looks on their faces.

Clearly, although the imperial court was weakened, the righteous cause still held great weight in many soldiers’ hearts.

At the sight of this, Cao Yuan immediately bellowed, “Don’t believe his fallacies! Traitor He, you’ve taken control over the imperial court, held the Emperor hostage, framed the people who are loyal, and brought chaos to the world, causing the citizens of Middle-earth to live in misery. Today, we’re going to rid the evil subjects around the Emperor, wiping out treacherous officials.

“Kill!”

As Cao Yuan gave the order, the several thousand Imperial Guards immediately recovered their momentum due to Cao Yuan’s reputation in the army.

At the next moment, their Qi activity joined together like they were forming a single entity. They then advanced forward, charging out toward the Grand Preceptor Manor. It was as if the earth were shaking and the mountains were swaying. The entire Divine Capital tremored.

In the sky, Fang Xingjian looked down at the several thousand soldiers who were charging toward the Grand Preceptor Manor. His eyes narrowed slightly.

Almost every one of these soldiers possessed Knight-level strength. They could race against cars, break a wall with a single punch, and snap a steel pillar with one kick.

Several hundreds of them possessed Conferred Knight-level strength. The few military officers also emitted power waves above those of the Divine level.

‘To think that just the average standard of the Imperial Guards’ extraordinary powers has reached such a high level… The levels of the cultivators in this world seem to have far surpassed those of Miracle World’s. It’s no wonder that they managed to construct a Divine Capital which is in no way inferior to the scale of modern cities.’

The thing that interested Fang Xingjian even more was the power that both sides displayed when they clashed.

‘It’s just like there are two fields, and their powers explode in a stable manner in each other’s fields. The two gushes of powers wear out each other, yet they won’t cause too much damage to the surroundings.

‘These powers are a little similar to electromagnetism, yet they have their differences. However, like electromagnetic fields, these powers also transmit out at light speed, moving with a single thought.

‘Still, they also weaken very quickly. It seems that they don’t have much prowess after traveling for over 100 meters.

‘So, it seems they are primarily used for defense…? If they don’t wear out the fields outside their opponent’s body, their attacks would be useless.’

Under Fang Xingjian’s gaze, the several thousand soldiers surrounded the Grand Preceptor Manor completely, not leaving any gaps. Their essential Qi joined together, making it as if thousands of people had turned into one. Each time the Grand Preceptor exchanged blows with the soldiers, the collision between their punches and kicks, as well as the pushing between the different fields, seemed like a collision against the powers of several thousand people concurrently.

‘It’s no wonder that this world isn’t like Miracle World. They still keep their military forces, and their extraordinary powers have the characteristic of being able to merge together perfectly like this.’

Fang Xingjian suddenly looked toward Eunuch Wang and asked outright, “What are the Imperial Guards using? Why are they able to connect their powers together?”

Eunuch Wang threw a surprised glance at Fang Xingjian before saying, “The Imperial Guards are using a battle formation. It can connect everyone’s essential Qi together into one, forming a complete Qi field. The Qi field that’s jointly created by several thousand soldiers is comparable to that of experts at the Disha Realm.

“If Grand Preceptor He doesn’t wipe out their Qi fields completely, he won’t be able to kill anyone.”

Fang Xingjian nodded as his understanding of this world deepened.

Simultaneously, despite the fact that Grand Preceptor He was facing several thousand Imperial Guards, he managed to overcome the difficulties in his path. By sending out strong powers with each punch and kick, he clashed with the Imperial Guards’ Qi fields, causing ripples and air explosions.

Wherever he passed by, men and horses would be thrown off their feet in defeat. Although Grand Preceptor He was unable to kill these Imperial Guards who were encompassed entirely in a layer of Qi field, he was unstoppable.

He was like a sharp arrow, piercing toward Cao Yuan’s location.
