Twin Dimension Yin-Yang Mirror: Attaining immortality through the martial path Chapter 614 - 614 499 Attacked 500 Ambush2

614: Chapter 499: Attacked Chapter 500: Ambush_2 614: Chapter 499: Attacked Chapter 500: Ambush_2 This city is not small at all.

Zhou Ping’an pondered and soon grasped what the situation on the other side was like.

No wonder Bai He had urged him not to go there unless absolutely necessary.

From his description, one could tell that it was probably more chaotic over there, even more so than in the Great Yu Dynasty.

A martial artist without a background, if possessing anything valuable, would likely be unable to keep it.

They might be robbed by demons, or coveted by their own kind.

Of course, there were hardly any folks to call one’s own.

Bai He had been chased everywhere, seeking an opportunity to escape here—only if one had imnse strength to make everyone fear them.

Otherwise, there was only one good path to take.

That was to keep a low profile and obey others’ commands.

“This world, crows of the sa color; nowhere is a paradise.”

Zhou Ping’an sighed inwardly.

…

“Brother, we have received a ssage from Guangyun.”

Lin Huaiyu’s figure flashed, arriving in the garden.

He first exchanged pleasantries with Bai He, then turned his head and, with a hint of urgency, pulled out a letter and handed it to Zhou Ping’an.

“Zhao Mountain Prefecture’s Qiuyuan County has sent out troops, General Dong Liancheng couldn’t withstand them and lost Tongyuan County, falling back three hundred miles, and he himself has been severely injured…”

“Did this happen two days ago?”

Zhou Ping’an furrowed his brows.

He had been at the Cloud Water Sect for not even three days.

Judging the ti since he had left Guangyun, Zhao Mountain Prefecture must have dispatched troops by then.

That is, right after he had killed the Blood Asura, which was possibly a clone of Monk Xuanming, movent had already begun on the other side.

“Such a quick response.”

Zhou Ping’an exhaled deeply.

It seed that by taking Guangyun, he had indeed stirred up a hornet’s nest, and the retaliation was unexpectedly fierce.

The speed of their actions was also surprisingly quick.

They hadn’t even given a mont to breathe.

The letter stated that General Dong Liancheng’s ten thousand troops suffered a massive defeat, facing multiple engagents with losses up to half, now fleeing with four thousand towards Xiao Mountain, and sending for reinforcents to Guangyun.

And their opponent was leisurely pursuing them.

All was known that their commanding general employed True Buddhist Skill, possessing imnse strength, and that a particularly elite unit was extraordinary—General Dong Liancheng barely made contact before suffering a terribly crushing defeat.

“It’s a trap…”

Upon reading the letter, Zhou Ping’an imdiately understood the opponent’s leisurely pursuit of Dong Liancheng’s forces was likely playing another model of the Encircle and Reinforce Strategy.

At this mont, any augnting strategy was a mistake.

He just hoped that Green Lady and the others wouldn’t be fooled…

“Don’t send any ssages… we need to return imdiately, I suspect that Zhao Mountain Prefecture might have an ambush of masters waiting, we can’t give them the chance to defeat us one by one.”

Zhou Ping’an said gravely.

Lin Huaiyu clearly agreed, “We can’t ignore Tongyuan and Xiao Mountain, and we must also guard against the potential of their elite forces penetrating to attack Guangyun City directly—should we split our troops into two?”

“No need, just concentrate our forces and strike in one direction, directly attacking Zhao Mountain Prefecture, I don’t believe they will remain keen on assaulting Guangyun County.”

This was essentially a “trade-off” ga.

As far as Zhou Ping’an was concerned, this was not the ti to expose one’s weaknesses.

Attempting to cover all bases as manipulated by the enemy could easily result in vulnerabilities appearing everywhere and becoming overwhelmingly passive in the end.

It would be better to gather the master fighters together, forming a fist, and strike directly.

‘It’s just unknown how much manpower and how many elite troops the Brahma Temple is truly willing to commit to this internal conflict.

If they divert too much strength, the Red Lotus Army to the north will certainly not just watch, seeing the opportunity, they aren’t devoid of life…’

The complexities circled around.

His greatest ally had beco the Red Lotus Sect.

It could only be said that the peculiarities of the world are indeed profound.

Cui Guangling slandered himself as a traitor, but deep down, he was unwilling to admit it.

However, the facts proved that Lord Cui actually had quite the foresight, in a sense, he wasn’t wrong.

“Brother, are you ready to wage war?

I wish to be the vanguard, to achieve rits and establish my career, today is the day.”

Bai He suddenly stood up, abandoning his al and drink, his cheeks flushing abnormally as he volunteered to fight.

Zhou Ping’an and Lin Huaiyu turned their heads in surprise.

Joy filled their hearts, they exchanged a glance and smiled at the sa ti.

“Military affairs are perilous, and little brother has just reached this realm after great difficulty, having to fight for life and death, isn’t that inappropriate?”

“It doesn’t matter, little brother read military tactics in youth and has always loved the affairs of military conquest—dreaming of the day when I could lead troops to attack and conquer…”

Bai He forced a smile and said, “In the Heavenly Cave and Blessed Land, Sect conflicts are extre, mostly involving sneak attacks and assassinations, rarely do we see large army confrontations; moreover, even if victorious in the Heavenly Cave and Blessed Land, there is no Qi Fortune to speak of.”

That last sentence was the truth.

Zhou Ping’an keenly caught on to this and imdiately laughed, “Since little brother is willing to help , I couldn’t ask for more.

I was worrying about how to deal with the experts from the Brahma Temple coming at us, but now, I’m relieved.”

The two hit it off and burst into hearty laughter.

So things are better placed out in the open.

From the beginning, Bai He hadn’t hid his intentions, he wanted to share in the Qi Fortune to quickly advance his cultivation.

Realistically speaking, with the current domain and Qi Fortune of Zhou Ping’an, it wouldn’t be enough to assist him at True Martial Late Stage.

But for so reason, he was convinced, believing that Zhou Ping’an would soon achieve great success and occupy more territories, allowing him to also benefit and rapidly progress to peek into the Supre Divine Martial Realm.

As for Zhou Ping’an.

Since that day before the Ancestor Master Hall, after witnessing the power of Bai He’s “Black Water Mysterious Snake” Dharma Form, he had made up his mind not to miss out on this person.

By now, he had made it clear.

In the True Martial Three Realms, Cultivation levels differ.

As for combat power, it depends on what True Form has been refined.

Different True Spirit achievents in Dharma Forms, even at the sa realm, could result in a vast difference in combat power.

True strengths and weaknesses, sotis, rely showing one’s realm isn’t useful, it must be tested through combat.

This point, Zhou Ping’an had thought through quite clearly.

Those ancient legends, and also so stories he had seen in the modern world, had already revealed this point.

The innate talents of Demon Beast cubs compared to human cubs are completely different.

What about the cubs of Spirit Beasts or Divine Beasts?

Different species, the foundational gap could extend to tens, hundreds of tis, even imasurable.

So creatures, it’s said that upon birth, possess the might to wipe out worlds; how powerful must such a True Spirit be?

Zhou Ping’an had secretly inquired, the Black Water Mysterious Snake belongs to the Top-grade True Spirits.

The refined True Spirit Dharma Form, estimated even at True Martial Late Stage, would be among the top experts.

In this current era where Divine Martial is absent, and True Martial reigns supre.

Having Bai He by his side is undoubtedly a great weapon.

When Bai He had taken action, Zhou Ping’an had secretly estimated that even to himself today, he might not be able to defeat the other.

Such a top-tier expert, to reject and not make connections with, would be utter foolishness.

“Then, let us delay no longer, let’s get moving.”

…

On the West Bank of Wei River, a large boat floated on the water.

A man standing at the forefront, his face anxious.

Behind him, two n rowed vigorously, speeding the boat swiftly across the water to the other bank.

The three of them led the horses off the boat, threw down so Silver, and galloped away.

“We still have six hundred miles to go, without stopping, we should make it to Yuntai Town by dark tonight.”

Wu Tietui had a worried look in his eyes, his voice tinged with anxiety.

“I don’t know if His Majesty has received the ssage, if the pigeon encountered trouble along the way, everything depends on us…”

Wu Tietui thought about how, in the past few days, the army had been defeated again and again, and was now in imminent danger; General Dong was grievously injured and near death, without more experts to reinforce, that regint might face total annihilation.

Although he was only ant as a backup, there could be no accidents.

The two robust-looking soldiers behind him, also covered with dust and looking anxious.

But unbeknownst to anyone, they were secretly communicating amongst themselves.

“This is too slow, I told you, waiting in the army would be enough, Zhou Ping’an definitely wouldn’t ignore his subordinates.”

“Running back and forth, it’s really stupid.”

One of them shook his head and said, “Taking action within the army could lead to mishaps, it is said that once these humans gather, they can form formations which greatly enhance their strength.”
