Chapter 1060 - No Choice But To Battle (1/2)

There were many beauties in the palace, but Zong Shou didn’t have the heart to enjoy them. Those barbarian tribe girls were mostly cute and pure. However, since Zong Shou had already enjoyed the top foods in the world, how would he get tempted by such matters?

Most of the time, he just sat alone to comprehend sword techniques.

That day when he comprehended Xi Zi’s Dao, Zong Shou felt that his sword skills had some improvement.

Naturally, he couldn’t instantly comprehend Xi Zi’s Creation Law, however, that day when he grasped the sword formation, he roughly understood the patterns and talismans within.

He was able to merge some of them into his sword to benefit a little.

“Unfortunately, I comprehended a far too little. This law to me doesn’t really matter. However, to Brother Ao, it is greatly beneficial.”

The Spiritual Energy Fluctuations instantly turned an Earth Grade message talisman into a wild dove, which then flew out of the palace.

Only this top talisman paper could carry his comprehensions of the Creation Law.

Actually, it wasn’t really much use, however, Xi Zi’s technique was born from the Human Dao. It would definitely cause Aokun to be surprised.

After sending the message talisman, Zong Shou stopped bothering about the restrictions and patterns within the Common People’s Seven Swords.

Xi Zi’s Dao was one of the top Daos in the world, it was even above that of the Creation Law.

However, since his Dao Path was already decided, he also didn’t have heart to bother about people all the time. It was best for him to give up on it.

Most of his time was spent on studying the Slaying Sword Intent and the Massacring Sword Intent.

Regarding the Massacring Slaying, the latter was much stronger than the former. However, the two of them were connected to one another.

The Massacring Sword Intent had already broken through to the Late Spirit Realm.

Along with it, the Slaying Sword Intent would be the easiest thing to breakthrough next.

Zong Shou sensed that after this battle, it would be a killing feast! The weapons in his hand were going to be really sharp!

“Demon Path!”

Many threads of sharp vengeful energy knocked about and smashed in his chest, swallowing at his internal organs.

There was no need to wait for any much longer…

Each day while training his sword, Zong Shou spent some effort paying attention to the war situation ahead. In each night, there would be intel from the frontlines. He would read it all, taking in every large and small details.

Since the Great Gan’s 3.2 million troops retreated from Henglian Mountain, reports spread back quickly and there wasn’t any defeat at all.

The river currents in the south mixed with one another, even if Great Shang was well prepared, it was still tough for them to push in.

18 million troops, the water net sliced them into ten parts.

This also gave Kong Yao a chance to attack. While using the help of the navy, eight hundred elites suddenly struck into the back of Great Shang. Just from this battle alone, they killed four hundred thousand.

They used attack as their form of defense, at the triangular-shaped plains, they clashed with the left-wing of Great Shang head-on. In just a few days, they broke through their millions of troops.

When Great Shang’s reinforcements arrived, Kong Yao and her troops sat on cloud ships and left.

Three battles in ten days, and they were all victories. After this, Great Shang became much more careful, as careful as they could be.

Kong Yao couldn’t find any chance to attack. The Emperor Yuanchen and South Conquest General found it tough too. Each step was restricted and they were even blocked at the north of Min River, unable to go forwards at all.

What was more problematic was that Kong Yao cleared out this area. All of the tribes retreated, there wasn’t a single grain of rice to be obtained.

As expected by Zong Shou, the Taoist Faction and Confucian Faction interfered with numerous Heaven and Earth Bags. The remaining 17 million troops still had enough grain to support themselves.

The war’s situation continued. Although Kong Yao could still use the navy to occasionally have some rewards, but it was impossible for her to kill three to four hundred thousand like what happened before.

However, Kong Yao’s talents were on full display. By using the currents, 3 million fought against three times their number, they weren’t at a disadvantage at all.

They didn’t bother to fight for every city and land, being really flexible. They instead focused on attacking the core areas of the enemy. If they found a weakness, they went all out. However, once the situation got tough, they would swiftly retreat, not delaying at all. Such that the Great Shang’s millions of troops were exhausted when facing them.

“Survive but lose land, if not, they would lose both; if you save the land and lose men, then you will lose men in the end too…”

She was afraid that Zong Shou would misunderstand why she sent this in her letters. However, Zong Shou didn’t even bother about it, even if he lost this land, it was okay, this was why he naturally didn’t care either.

Just at this moment, the fifty thousand Common People’s Xuan Dragon Warriors and thirty-five thousand Moyang Sword Cavalry went under her charge. The entire defense line became more stable.

What surprised Zong Shou was the Buddhist Faction. They sent twenty thousand reinforcements to listen to him.

There were very few who were good at fighting, but were instead good at the Merciful Thousand Leaf Alive Scripture, healing. Three thousand formed into a formation and red scriptures, it could cause three hundred thousand troops in a fifty-mile range to be buffed with the Diamond Body, similar to a Grade-Five Spirit Armor, its defense was shocking.

Kong Yao was really impressed. Just this twenty thousand made her happier than when she got the fifty thousand Xuan Dragon Warriors.
