Chapter 465: Chapter 50: Huge Meritorious Task, Liu Tianning’s Oppressive Training! (6K)_3

Zhao Xing thought for a moment and agreed.

The Gate Defense Array at Fire Dragon Pass also stretched for hundreds of miles. Such a large Array had required the Divine Might Army and the Xuanjia Army to dispatch a total of eighteen thousand troops, who crossed Flame Mountain and sabotaged it from within.

They destroyed dozens of cities, yet it only temporarily disabled the Gate Defense Array.

Afterward, accompanied by massive bombardments from the fleet of Zhenhai Army outside the pass, they finally breached it.

The current Enchantment Array, although not as extensive as the Gate Defense Array at Fire Dragon Pass, was also a large-scale high-level Array.

It was also difficult to sabotage from within because once inside, one would encounter walls as if haunted, with no way to discern any direction.

"You just need to get through it, that’s all," Liu Tianning said, "The Enchantment Array is not offensive; it mainly serves to block and trap enemies."

"Once you understand how to navigate through this Array, and master the Self Grassman Skill, you can lead the team yourself every time we transport supplies there, and that will solve this problem,"

"Understood," Zhao Xing nodded.

...

Starting from November 7th, Zhao Xing handed over all military duties to Han Bing and Wang Ji. At this time, he could only trust them to accomplish the task of ’rerouting supplies.’

He then focused on learning with Liu Tianning.

What was he learning?

One was to pass through the high-level Enchantment Array.

In the high-level Enchantment Array, Zhao Xing was very quick to move through the formations.

Firstly, he had guidance from Liu Tianning, secondly a foundation in arrays, and lastly, his Life Soul had reached the sixth rank and he also possessed the Heavenly Eye Skill.

With all these factors combined, Zhao Xing quickly mastered the techniques of navigating through the Array.

Secondly, he practiced the Self Grassman Skill.

The minimum threshold for the Self Grassman Skill is the perfect unification of five Spells.

The lowest level of the Self Grassman, also a high-level Spell and at its highest, had no limit—it could be called the ’ultimate Spell’ of the Grassman Skills.

Zhao Xing’s previous Grassman Skill could achieve a perfect unification of three Spells: Flight, Divine Courage, and Martyr Explosion.

A unification of four Spells was only at the intermediate Seventh Transition Level.

Achieving the unification of five Spells in a short time was quite difficult.

If it hadn’t been for the consumption of the Life Soul Pill, even with Liu Tianning’s direct guidance, Zhao Xing wouldn’t have expected to do it within a short period.

But now, having taken the Life Soul Pill, and with Liu Tianning personally demonstrating the Self Grassman Skill, there seemed a glimmer of hope.

.....

Military Realm, Hundred Soldiers Tower.

King Luo Hou, Lingde King, and King Heavenly Destiny gathered together.

"King Heavenly Destiny, King Luo Hou, your wager now has a turning point," Lingde King said, "Zhao Xing has not abandoned the mission assigned by the Military Realm, and the generals in front of Sacrificial Soul Pass have also not retreated."

"The kid has started to take risks again," King Heavenly Destiny said, no longer able to smile, "Previously at Fire Dragon Pass, he also took risks. This time, knowing the task was tough, he still refused to give up."

"Qi Yuan Army, Nangong Ye, Yi Yue, Xia Jing, Liao Rulong... they are all reckless geniuses, only Wen Shaoyang is a bit more cautious. These guys together really share a taste for danger," King Heavenly Destiny shook his head.

If the generals among them were not united in opinion, then Zhao Xing wouldn’t be able to undertake this mission, and the army would vanish upon withdrawal.

If Zhao Xing felt it was unmanageable, without the guarantee of logistical support, the army on the front three routes would also withdraw to Tonghuo City.

Zhao Xing had previously used the Turtle Coin Divination Skill to foresee the future, and the hint he received was to stop while ahead and preserve the fruits of victory already obtained.

King Heavenly Destiny also believed that Zhao Xing and his men should take a break, but these people, they just wouldn’t stop.

"It may not necessarily be a risk," King Luo Hou observed, looking at one report after another, "The army at Sacrificial Soul Pass is clearly frightened. Unable to confront directly, they wanted to cut off their supply line to force them to retreat and buy some breathing space."

"If the supplies are not lost, another two months, and Sacrificial Soul Pass will not hold,"

Lingde King said, "The prognostications of the Creation Plate all suggest that the eastern troops are more at risk, Luo Hou King, provided they can hold out."

"The Creation Plate is not necessarily 100% accurate, as it only provides possibilities," King Luo Hou said, "Lingde King, why don’t you also make a bet?"

Lingde King was startled, then smiled, "As you, Luo Hou, have invited, I must grant you this favor. What do you propose we bet on?"

"I bet Zhao Xing’s supply line remains secure, with Sacrificial Soul Pass falling within two months," King Luo Hou said, "let’s bet on two Seventh-rank Divine Weapons."

"Hahaha," King Heavenly Destiny laughed, "Luo Hou, don’t get in over your head. You’ve already bet one Seventh-rank Divine Weapon with me, and now two with Lingde King."

Lingde King smiled, "The fall of Sacrificial Soul Pass within two months means Zhao Xing must immediately solve the problem of the Enchantment Array. However, I still will not bet."

King Luo Hou said, "Forty days! I bet that Sacrificial Soul Pass will fall within forty days!"

Lingde King was surprised, he pondered a moment, and finally couldn’t resist the temptation, "Alright, I’ll take the bet! Let’s see whether the Creation Plate is accurate, or your, Luo Hou’s, foresight."

"Chances are, Luo Hou, you might just recover some losses from him," King Heavenly Destiny joked.

"Lingde King, you are definitely going to lose," King Luo Hou said calmly, "Haven’t I told you? Those who can create opportunities out of none are supreme geniuses, often capable of creating miracles."

"And right now, there’s more than one such person on the eastern front."

Lingde King was somewhat astonished. He immediately took out the Earth Mirror to search: "Damn it! Luo Hou, you’ve tricked me!"

"Liu Tianning has also gone to the battle zone, can that even count? That’s not according to the rules!" Lingde King protested.

"Why can’t it count?" King Luo Hou revealed a hint of a smile: "It’s just his sixth-rank combat avatar teaching, and he’s not directly fighting, plus tough conditions for navigating the high-level Enchantment Array are already set."

"You..." Lingde King was at a loss for words. If it were just Zhao Xing, he might have gone ahead with the bet, but with Liu Tianning also heading there, he indeed felt uncertain. In the Military Realm Inspection Department, the evaluation of Liu Tianning was extremely high! His teaching Zhao Xing might really create a miracle.
