Zhang Ke, who was observing the battlefield on the northern front through the [Xumitian Eye Formation], was slightly shocked.
He has never seen such a large-scale human war in his life.
In the past, when the practitioners of the "Azure Realm" fought against the Zerg in the void, although the number of the Zerg exceeded hundreds of millions, it was a three-dimensional attack.
Although there are many of them, they are only a drop in the ocean.
What you see in front of you is different. This is a war between humans.
As a human being, Zhang Ke would inevitably incorporate his own emotions into it.
It's like when you see two piles of ants fighting, no matter how heavy their casualties are, the most you can do is laugh.
But if these two piles of ants are replaced by humans, no one can calmly watch each human being killed with his own eyes, even if you don't know any of these people.
Well, except for a certain country that wears crotchless pants.
It is human nature to hurt others!
In Zhang Ke's dream world, the largest human war recorded in history was probably the one with the largest number of participants in Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty's conquest of Goryeo.
A total of 24 soldiers of the Sui army participated in this battle, as many as 1.3 million people, and other auxiliary personnel were more than twice as many as the main soldiers. In other words, more than 4 million people participated directly or indirectly in this battle.
From the departure of the first army to the departure of the last army, there was a time interval of forty days. The armies were connected end to end, drums and trumpets sounded, and flags were connected for nine hundred and sixty miles.
In the thousands of years of history that followed, including modern wars, it was unprecedented to unilaterally invest four million troops in a war at one time.
At this time, Zhang Ke looked at the human race fighting for their lives on that vast land through the [Xumitian Eye Formation], and he had a deeper understanding of the word 'destiny' in his heart.
Zhang Ke felt that he and other practitioners from outside the world, including the ‘Devils’, were like capitalists sharing cakes at the dinner table, deciding the life and death of tens of millions of human beings in an understatement.
But this is only because I and others are on the outside, guiding and promoting all of this with a overlooking attitude.
The height you stand determines what you can see wherever you look.
But think about it from another perspective, what if you and others are also in this game?
Does that mean that there are people at a higher level than you and others who are also directing your actions?
As for the truth, it is not something Zhang Ke can imagine or change now.
Zhang Ke dismissed the thoughts that came from seeing the war on the northern front. Looking at the "Suzaku Kingdom" army launching a counterattack in the "Xumitian Eye Formation", he understood that there were some things that could be prepared in advance.
Since the start of the 'Tao Demon War' more than a hundred years ago, although Zhang Ke has not intervened in various matters within the 'Suzaku Kingdom', it does not mean that he has left it alone.
In fact, he has been observing everything happening in this world through the [Xumi Tian Eye Formation].
From the beginning of various countries and tribes conquering each other, to countries large and small, tribes were devoured, and finally to the formation of four major forces coexisting in the world.
During this period, Zhang Ke always observed the development of major and minor wars from an overlooking perspective, and gradually he integrated himself into them.
The integration mentioned here does not mean that he personally experienced every war, but that he put himself into it.
Initially, when Zhang Ke integrated himself into one of the warring parties, he could vaguely sense the strength gap between them and make a rough prediction of victory or defeat.
In recent decades, even if the two armies have never fought, he can more accurately deduce the outcome of the battle.
Thirty years ago, Zhang Ke discovered through the observation of the "Xumi Tian Eye Array" that six countries of different sizes were approaching the same area.
He made predictions almost instinctively.
The result shocked him greatly. Whether it was the timing of the war, which two countries started the war first, and which country would win the final victory, it was exactly what he predicted.
It was at this moment that Zhang Ke realized what true 'power' was.
‘Potential’ cannot be seen or touched, but it is real.
It's like an avalanche. When each snowflake falls alone, it can't even hurt ants. But when countless snowflakes gather together, it immediately has the power of collapsing mountains and cracking rocks.
The force that makes snowflakes move together is a kind of "momentum".
If this 'battle between Tao and demons' is regarded as a game of chess, the practitioners, 'demons', humans and creatures in the mountains and seas will all be chess pieces, moving according to certain rules.
And what drives and guides the changes of the chess pieces is also a big ‘momentum’.
When Zhang Ke observed the war in the 'Mountain and Sea Realm' from an overlooking perspective, he discovered that sorting out and integrating various factors such as time, location, people, etc., was also a process of constant elimination.
There is only one truth of the matter. Excluding all impossibilities, the remaining one, no matter how unbelievable it is, is a fact.
When you lay a canal, water will flow along a designated path.
This is also the reason why Zhang Ke was able to grasp the changes in the battle situation, because he felt the changes in 'situation'.
After realizing the influence of "potential", the next step is to promote and guide the change of "potential". Just like a boulder rolling downward, you can't stop it from rolling, but you can change the direction in which it rolls.
This understanding is crucial to Zhang Ke.
Although Zhang Ke had heard many people explain how to be promoted to Dao Lord before, he had never been able to grasp the core concept of being promoted to Dao Lord.
And through this observation from a bystander's perspective in the 'Mountain and Sea Realm', he finally understood what he was lacking.
That is the control of ‘potential’.
Back then, Master Dao of Destruction split Penglai Island in half with one strike, and the core power contained in it was the use of 'shi'.
The gap between large sects and small sects is most highlighted at this critical moment.
True Lord Feihong must know what is most important for promotion to Dao Lord, otherwise he would not spend a huge price to preside over this war.
But when he explained to Zhang Ke the matters related to promotion to Dao Lord, he did not mention this at all.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! If Zhang Ke had not realized it on his own through the [Xumi Tian Eye Formation], I don’t know how many years he would have had to wait to realize this.
However, does every practitioner who has advanced to the rank of Taoist master have to use this method to understand the changes of 'potential'?
Zhang Ke was a little confused, but then he put this thought behind him.
The most important thing at this moment is to help Vientiane win this war.
Thinking of this, Zhang Ke grabbed the void with his right hand and caught a few vitality breaths, then brought it to his mouth and blew gently.
‘Hoo~~’
The vitality was blown away, turning into a breeze and being swept into the [Xumi Tian Eye Formation] along with his breath.
In an instant, the vitality of heaven and earth around Zhang Ke rapidly vibrated, and as his aura merged into the formation, ripples continued to flow to a certain area.
Falling into the empty sea.
The ‘Wanling Tribe’ deployed nearly three million troops on the coastline near the Xingkong Sea.
In addition, hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers were deployed on tens of thousands of warships connected with iron cables on the sea.
Don't worry about winning, think about defeat first.
When any qualified coach goes deep into the enemy's country to fight, the first thing he has to do is to prepare his own retreat.
On this day, the sergeant of the "Wanling Tribe" who was patrolling near the coastline suddenly discovered a strange phenomenon.
A thin mist seems to be born above the sea area of the Skyfall Sea.
The mist was very light at first, like a veil, but as time went by, the mist became thicker and thicker.
At the end, the thick fog was like lead-gray smoke, completely covering the nearby sea area thousands of miles away.
At first, some of the generals of the ‘Wanling Tribe’ who stayed on the coastline didn’t pay much attention.
But when they saw the clearly visible offshore platform gradually disappearing from their sight, they couldn't help but panic.
Immediately, more than a dozen small boats were sent to investigate the offshore platform connected by iron cables on the hollow sea.
Unexpectedly, the fog on the sea turned out to be like a maze, and not a single boat that entered it returned.
They don't know whether these boats have entered the offshore platform or whether they have lost their way at sea.
Those tens of thousands of ships are only a few hundred miles away from the coastline.
Normally, no matter how lost the soldiers of the 'Wanling Tribe' are, they should be able to easily find the offshore platform.
After all, tens of thousands of ships are connected together, and it is as vast as a piece of land.
After some deliberations, a ‘Devil’ led a fleet of twenty small boats into the foggy Kong Kong Sea.
But just like what happened before, this fleet also disappeared.
Through spiritual communication with the [Heavenly Demon Concentric Gong], the ‘Heavenly Demon’ who entered the ‘Trapped Sea of the Sky’ sent back a message.
He lost his way in the "Trapped Sea". No matter which direction he moved, he could never find any trace of the offshore platform.
It was as if there was a unique magnetic force interfering with his sanity, causing him to keep spinning in circles on the sea.
This news was also learned by Jiuluo, who was secretly presiding over the war on the battlefield on the Western Front.
His first reaction was that someone from outside the circle had taken action. To be precise, it was whether Zhenjun Ruyi had taken action.
But when he used the [Heavenly Demon Concentric Gong] to inquire, he realized that it was a mist that shrouded the thousands of miles of sea.
And this fog can still exist for a long time.
The most important thing is that the compatriots who stayed behind clearly told him that in this fog, he did not feel the changes in the vitality of heaven and earth.
This heavy fog seems to be formed naturally.
Jiuluo does not agree with this point. Practitioners' divine passage methods are ever-changing, especially that of True Lord Ruyi, which is even more powerful and frightening.
If there is a way to do this, Jiuluo has no doubt at all.
However, if this heavy fog is really summoned by Zhenjun Ruyi, then what is his purpose in doing this?
Jiuluo had a vague premonition in his heart.
…
Outside Beigong City.
Wanxiang drove the nine-horse king's chariot ahead, followed by the three battalions of 'Suzaku', 'Puppet' and 'Iron Cavalry'.
Vientiane is a guide. In which direction she attacks, the three forward battalions behind her will launch an offensive accordingly.
The battlefield where millions of people are fighting is so vast. If you don't have an overlooking view, you can only see chaotic battle scenes everywhere around you.
And due to the frequent use of too many innate magical powers and spells, the vitality of heaven and earth within a radius of thousands of miles was interfered with and unable to function normally.
As time goes by, it becomes difficult for anyone to cast magical powers.
The reason why the army of "Lihun Mountain" can easily break through many defense lines on the northern front is actually because "Heavenly Demon" Akiluo and dozens of her kin secretly help guide the weak points of the "Suzaku Kingdom" defense line.
With the spiritual dialogue ability of [Heavenly Demons Tongxin Gong], as long as these ‘Heavenly Demons’ follow the main generals of ‘Lihun Mountain’ respectively, they can respond immediately.
The actions of Akira and other ‘celestial demons’ were not deemed as violations of the rules by [Qi Banner], so they would not be punished for this.
This strategy is simple yet practical.
Encircle, chase and intercept, criticize those who are overbearing and attack those who are weak.
With this advantage, 'Lihun Mountain' always maintained the initiative on the battlefield, and almost captured 'Beigong City' before everything arrived.
But after Wanxiang led his army into the battlefield, Aqiluo suddenly realized that this tactic of seeing a man beating a blind man was not going to work.
No matter how quickly he and others changed, Wanxiang always launched an offensive one step ahead.
It's like the feeling you get when you're about to take a step out, and as soon as you lift your foot, someone steps on it.
Little did they know that Wanxiang was naturally sensitive to the battlefield, and she could grasp her opponent's changes on the battlefield just by feeling.
And this is one of the main reasons why Wanxiang has won every battle since his debut.
Another reason why she is able to win every battle is also revealed at this moment.
No matter how the army of Lihun Mountain is guided, Wanxiang always marches towards the location of its command camp while responding to changes.
Wanxiang's intentions are obvious.
Behead!
Her intentions were not hidden, they were shown so clearly and nakedly.
Not only can the mountains far away on the city wall be seen clearly, but even the generals at Lihun Mountain can see it clearly.
Many generals in the "Lihun Mountain" were immediately angry. This was so disrespectful.
This time, there was no need for Aqiluo to wait for the 'Heavenly Demon' to deliver the message. In less than a quarter of an hour, a military formation was formed in front of Wanxiang.
The "Lihun Mountain" army of nearly one million people was thick and thick, and was deployed in layers in front of the camp.
One thousand two hundred wizards stood up with their hair disheveled, making indistinguishable murmuring sounds from their mouths, and traces of strange aura fluctuations emanated from these wizards.
As the wizards continue to adjust the frequency, the voices and movements of the twelve hundred wizards gradually become unified.
After a certain synchronized foot shake, these wizards suddenly reached out and pointed at everything at the same time.
At the same time, a very high-pitched shout came out of his mouth.
‘Buzz!’
Three thousand six hundred black lines came out from the fingertips, mouths, and feet of many wizards.
And in the next second, these 3,600 black lines gathered in one place, condensed, and compressed into a three-inch snake-shaped gray line that shot toward everything.
The Secret Method of Curse of ‘Lihun Mountain’: Destroy the Gray Snake
The steep mountains and rocks were all injured by this cursed secret.
At this time, all things are rolling in the sea of flames and heading towards the camp of "Lihun Mountain".
When the twelve hundred wizards cast spells, a huge crisis suddenly arose in her heart.
The right hand [Twelve Yuan Chen Dharma Pillar] slapped the king's chariot hard.
He shouted:
"Come on fire!"
Following his command, Feng Xinglu's body suddenly burst out with golden-red flames from the inside out, shouting loudly:
"fire!"
The five hundred thousand soldiers of the "Suzaku Camp" also burst out with golden and red firelight from their bodies at the same time, and shouted in unison:
"fire!"
In an instant, the flames soaring into the sky echoed with the fire cloud above.
After a moment, the fire clouds in the sky quickly rotated to form a funnel shape and shot downwards a golden red flame light beam that enveloped everything.
"boom-"
At this moment, a phantom of a sea of fire appeared in everything and where the ‘Suzaku Camp’ was located.
As soon as the phantom of the sea of fire appeared, the water in the ground in the area where the "Suzaku Camp" army was located was quickly evaporated.
First, it was like a long-drought mud, with countless cracks opening, and then the land quickly melted into red magma and flowed in all directions.
A practitioner observing the battle in [Qi Banner] cried out:
"This...could this be a projection from the elemental world?"
Someone next to me also exclaimed:
"This is impossible. The master of Wanxiang Kingdom's cultivation is at the realm of Yuanshen at best. How can he summon the 'Elemental Realm Projection'?"
Even Zhang Ke, who was observing this place with the [Xumitian Eye Formation] in his ancestral land, was almost biting off his tongue in shock.
