After a century of worship, I became the ancestor of the tribe.

Chapter 159 Mu Long: The Advantage Lies With Me!
Led by Shi Jun, hundreds of Blood Curse Guards charged towards the cursed magic, swallowing the cursed power into their bodies before pouncing on White-haired Owl Yang.

Bai Mao Xiao Yang was bound on the spot, countless fingers tearing at his body. In just one breath, a layer of flesh was torn off his body, and a wave of blood burst out.

"what!"

Screams sounded.

Those around who saw the white-haired owl's miserable state were immediately terrified.

Before long, their ancestral temple and sacrificial spirits were stripped bare, reduced to a skeleton.

The clan leader led his elite troops south with the lineage master, taking with him a large number of Heavenly Vein warriors from the clan.

They called out to the elders and commanders who remained in the tribe, but these people seemed to have vanished.

The only elder who appeared did not last long before being killed.

Without the leadership of the elders and the commanders, the entire tribe fell into disarray and was no match for these humans who exuded a murderous aura.

These people's bloodshot eyes hold only indifference and murderous intent.

The Muxian tribe began to collapse, and countless figures began to flee in all directions.

The Blood Sea Guards paid no attention to the fleeing man; they continued to mechanically strike and kill the Owl Sun who appeared before them until he was no longer in sight.

"set fire!"

The raging fire spread throughout the entire territory of the Muxian tribe, stretching for hundreds of miles, with flames piercing the sky and illuminating the night.

Without collecting the remains or the spoils of war, Tian Chuanshan led his men and charged into the mountains without hesitation.

He planned to divide the Blood Sea Guards into four branches again, turn around, and head north.

The current goal is to fight our way north before the encirclement and suppression by Xiaoyang.

The territory of the Muyan branch is long and narrow from east to west. They invaded from the west, and the Muxian tribe, as one of the five major tribes of the Muyan branch, is located at the westernmost part of the Muyan branch.

This location is conveniently located outside the core area of ​​the Muyan branch, greatly ensuring that the Blood Sea Guards will not encounter more powerful members of the Muyan branch.

"Commander, wouldn't it be a huge loss if we just fought our way out like this?"

More than a dozen figures gathered around Tian Chuanshan.

Because of the continuous killing over the past few days, every figure was radiating a murderous aura, and the blood on their armor had congealed layer upon layer.

Some people still had surging blood energy emanating from them, which turned into sobbing sounds.

What do you mean?

"Let's break it down into smaller parts now."

“That’s right. If we want to avoid being surrounded when we enter the mountains, we have to break up into smaller groups. Why not make a big splash in the heart of Xiaoyang now?”

"Why would we need a map? To the north is the towering Juyue Mountain Range. With Juyue as our guide, no one will get lost."

"The vast wilderness and hills are our hiding places. Even if Xiaoyang has a fourth-level reserve in the clan's territory, as long as we spread our eight thousand people like seeds across the mountains and fields, Xiaoyang's fourth-level reserve will be powerless."

Those who could serve as centurions in the Blood Sea Guard or advance to the Heavenly Vein Realm were almost all from the first batch of Blood Sea Guards.

These people were transferred to Ji County and became the backbone of the expanded Blood Sea Guard.

It can be said that everyone in the North participated in the "guerrilla war" against Xiaoyang.

If other types of troops were to invade the territory of the Xiaoyang tribe, they would be concerned about how to escape.

However, for a group of human warriors who constantly used the Owl Yang Blood Pill to cultivate, their thoughts and will had long since changed drastically under the stimulation of the Owl Yang Blood Pill.

What is fate?
Does killing and eating raw owl-like creatures (likely referring to malevolent spirits) cause mental excitement?

"Hahaha!"

A dozen or so figures gathered around Tian Chuanshan, whispering and discussing for a moment before someone burst into laughter.

"Alright, the temple priest did give me the order to act expediently before leaving."

Tian Chuanshan glanced at his men.

According to the plan, after they quickly wiped out a portion of the Xiaoyang tribe of the Muyan branch, they would inevitably be besieged by the Xiaoyang tribe.

Therefore, when formulating the strategy, the key points of this march were specifically taken into account.

We must take advantage of the lull in Xiaoyang's mobilization of heavy troops to encircle and annihilate them, break out of Xiaoyang's territory, and enter the Juyue Mountains in the north.

Venturing deep into the territory of the Xiaoyang tribe is a dangerous undertaking, as anything could happen. Therefore, before setting off, Shen Can instructed Tian Chuanshan to act expediently and make judgments based on local conditions.

"Within a quarter of an hour, pass the order to every comrade, break into smaller groups, and hunt down Xiao Yang."

Tell everyone that the northern mountains are their guide, and if they realize they can't hold on any longer, they should head north.

The centurion relayed the order to the platoon leader, who then called over the squad leader to pass it on. Soon, the order reached the ears of every Blood Sea Guard soldier.

Stop running, break up into smaller groups on the spot, and hunt down Xiaoyang.

Use whatever methods you want; as long as you ensure your own safety, you can go all out.

Inside the jungle, the Blood Sea Guard soldiers, who were resting, gleamed with a sharp light in their bloodshot eyes upon hearing the order.

As Tian Chuanshan walked through the jungle, he took in the changing expressions of the soldiers around him.

Everyone was eager to get started; no one was worried about the trouble, and no one was concerned about their own safety.

I knew it would turn out this way.

"Centurion, Heavenly Vein Warriors, come here. I'll assign areas."

Seeing this, Tian Chuanshan no longer hesitated and gathered his men back in front of him.

"The task the temple gave us was to kill as many Muyan branch members as possible."

We are now on the west side of the Muyan territory, and to the east there are still a large number of small branches of the Muyan tribe and the four major tribes.

After breaking up the group into smaller units, don't be particular about the methods used. When killing Xiaoyang, make sure to injure as many Xiaoyang clansmen as possible.

If a member of the Xiaoyang clan is injured, it will take time and consume medicinal herbs.

If a tribe loses a hundred Owl Yang warriors and another hundred Owl Yang warriors are injured, then the tribe can tie down the energy of hundreds of Owl Yang warriors.

If it's a small Xiaoyang tribe of three to five thousand people, then that tribe has already suffered a major blow. How many soldiers could they possibly spare to annihilate us?

Tian Chuanshan quickly relayed some information to his centurion, drawing on his years of experience in battle.

The centurion relayed these words down the ranks to every soldier.

"Brothers, see you in the Giant Mountain Range."

In the jungle, squads of Blood Sea Guard warriors rushed swiftly into the mountains. Tian Chuanshan stayed behind, watching everyone disappear into the forest before choosing a direction and vanishing into the vast jungle.

……

Jidi is a wasteland on the east bank of the middle reaches of the Guimu River.

The camp of the Three Fire Division was surrounded in a circle. Outside the camp, warriors from the Owl Yang Sect kept rushing to the vicinity of the camp, throwing giant arrows, and even attempting to attack the camp.

Whenever soldiers from the Three Fire Clan charge out, these owl-like creatures vanish without a trace.

Inside the camp, Huotang listened quietly to the commotion outside.

He also arranged for the soldiers who went out to fight; otherwise, how could he have let Xiao Yang see his furious rage?

"Send the order to break camp and retreat south tomorrow."

"Transmit the order to every soldier of the tribe. The time for the decisive battle against Xiaoyang has come."

The scene of tens of thousands of Xiaoyang attempting to attack after more than ten days of continuous harassment occurred five times.

Now, from all directions, countless hawks are surrounding us, waiting for the final blow.

Similarly, Huotang was also looking forward to this final blow.

If they can defeat Xiaoyang, then the vast area within the Heyang Market will also be under the control of the Sanhuo Tribe.

For the various tribes in Ji, everything else is meaningless; only military achievements hold any real power.

The reason why Yanran rose to prominence over the past century is because of the bloody battles it fought against Xiaoyang.

If the Three Fires can win, then the Ji region will be a tripartite balance of power, with the Three Fires having a place.

……

The next day, the three fire-wielding soldiers stopped their northward march and began to form a defensive formation before returning south.

Upon witnessing this scene, the Xiaoyang Clan soldiers immediately reported the news to Mu Feilong.

For more than ten days, Mu Feilong had been loitering nearby, observing the battle situation.

The attacks by the Xiaoyang tribe soldiers, day and night, had a significant impact on the human tribe soldiers.

Especially in the days that followed, the human race launched numerous nighttime attacks on the camp, and the enraged humans repeatedly sent out cavalry to charge out.

This all demonstrates that the morale of these human warriors has been affected.

In addition, the human warriors' reconnaissance was completely cut off, and a large number of the scouts they sent out were killed.

As for the flying Azure Phoenix soldiers, he personally rode the birds to the sky to take action. After killing two Azure Phoenixes in succession, these humans finally dared not ride the Azure Phoenixes out again.

This group of people is deaf and blind.

"Commander, Mu Longjiang is coming."

Mu Feilong temporarily resided in a mountain cave, where he took command of the entire operation and vowed to win a great victory.

Now, he feels increasingly confident that the victory in this battle is in his favor.

That's definitely a meritorious service record.

To surpass other members of the same clan at the ninth level of the Heavenly Vein realm and gain clan support to advance to the Divine Treasury realm, the only way is to achieve military merit.

"Let it in."

Mu Feilong knew Mu Long's intentions. Now that the human race wanted to retreat, it was time to launch a decisive attack.

Mu Feilong even wondered if his ancestors had taken pity on this subordinate whose name was somewhat similar to his own.

After entering the cave, Mu Long immediately said, "Commander, the humans are trying to escape. They can't hold on any longer. It's time for us to encircle and annihilate them."

Mu Feilong stood with his hands behind his back, his robust figure exuding a strong aura of bloodlust.

"Don't panic, let him wait two more days."

Mu Long wanted to speak, but seeing Mu Feilong's expression, he immediately realized what was happening.

"Your Excellency's insight is brilliant."

"After this great victory, I will definitely speak up for you before the clan leader."

"Thank you, Commander. Your subordinate is willing to go through fire and water for you."

Mu Long spoke fluently. Despite living in the mountains for so long, Xiao Yang had been capturing humans as slaves and martyrs for years, and countless artisans had been taken away.

Not everyone captured by the Xiaoyang clan was willing to die rather than submit; many were obsequious and their flattering words had been learned by the Xiaoyang.

"Order that these human soldiers be annihilated in three days!"

Mu Feilong spoke up, "Also, remember to call those guys from Qiu Que over, and let the Qiu Yin lineage see how our Mu Yan lineage fights."

"The leader is wise and insightful."

Mu Long immediately slapped it down.

"These guys from the Qiuyin branch have been outwardly compliant but inwardly resentful all these years. It's time to let them know that not only can my Muyan lineage suppress them in strength, but it can also defeat these idiots in battle."

"Well said, hahaha..."

"Men, go and catch a few of the younger ones; I want to host a banquet for General Mu Long."

……

Soon, screams of agony from the humans and loud laughter from the Xiaoyang tribe echoed through the cave.

Even as night fell, Mu Feilong, having eaten and drunk his fill, did not fall into a deep sleep. He regarded this great victory as one of the merits for his advancement to the Divine Realm, and naturally took it very seriously.

After emerging from the cave, he mounted a flying bird and took to the air, heading towards the human camp.

Under the cover of night, looking down from high above, you can see it clearly.

The Xiaoyang tribe soldiers continued to harass the human race on the outskirts. Torches flickered inside the human camp as the enraged human soldiers once again rushed out to besiege Xiaoyang.

For more than ten days, it has frequently been secretly looking down at the human camp from the sky.

Seeing that the human camp was still in a mess, Mu Feilong left satisfied.

……

Three days later.

under night.

As usual, they set up camp, and Xiaoyang attacked once again.

The human camp appeared chaotic, but inside the tents, all was quiet, with heavily armored warriors polishing their heavy swords.

Huo Tang stood on the chariot, flanked by hundreds of Heavenly Vein warriors from the Luoshui tribe.

As for the three thousand antelope-like cavalry, they had already charged out again to encircle and annihilate the invading Xiaoyang. From the beginning of the retreat, every night the people in the camp became outwardly relaxed but inwardly tense, with the thirty thousand soldiers always carrying heavy armor and weapons.

He deduced that the Xiaoyang would launch a large-scale attack on the camp at night, taking advantage of the Xiaoyang tribe's incursion.

For the past three days, the vehicles used to transport wounded soldiers during the daytime march were actually occupied by heavily armed guards disguised as wounded soldiers, while at night they would stare wide-eyed and wait.

"Elder Fire Clan, do you think Xiaoyang will come today?"

Luo Feng had dark circles under his eyes; he was getting annoyed to death by this group of scoundrels.

Back in Luoshui, I never imagined that Xiaoyang of Jidi would be so troublesome.

It's hard to imagine how the Jidi people managed to hold out for so long.

There was also some relief that Jidi was there to stop them; otherwise, Luoshui would probably have been flattened by Xiaoyang.

Although he also wanted Luoshui to be flattened, he still felt very uncomfortable if it were flattened by Xiaoyang.

Huotang silently wiped his battle sword.

"It's just a matter of a few days. If you don't come today, it'll be tomorrow."

Huo Tang wouldn't tell Luo Feng that Xiao Yang had stolen his Blazing Flame technique.

After more than ten days, even with calming witchcraft, the tribal soldiers stationed on the perimeter were enraged by Xiao Yang and kept rushing out to kill the invading Xiao Yang.

Huotang did not object to this; if the act had to be convincing, it would fool Xiaoyang, and some casualties were necessary.

Without exception, the tribe soldiers who charged far out usually suffered heavy losses.

Along with the three thousand antelope-like cavalry, over a thousand were lost in the past half month.

The original intention of bringing these antelope-like beasts from Luoshui was to train them into an elite force like Xuehai and Chongdao.

However, after encountering a treacherous disciple like Xiao Yang, Huo Tang directly threw out the Antelope Beast.

Gains and losses are measured after the war, not before it even begins.

If we don't act ruthlessly now, the losses will only be greater when we fight the final battle.

Rumble!
Oh oh oh!
Suddenly, bugle calls rang out from all directions of the camp, and the earth began to tremble.

On the surrounding wasteland, countless owls lay prostrate on the ground, charging towards the camp.

A force of over two thousand crocodile dragon cavalrymen was the first to collide with the antelope-unicorn cavalrymen who had rushed out to encircle and suppress the invading forces of Xiaoyang.

Such massive cavalrymen, once they charge into battle, would be nothing short of a bloody trampling of ordinary tribal soldiers.

"kill!"

Mu Feilong rode on the back of a massive crocodile dragon, leading the arrayed Xiaoyang soldiers as they charged toward the main camp.

"Brother Qiuque, the time for you to take revenge has come."

Mu Feilong glanced back at the dozen or so Heavenly Vein Warriors of the Qiuyin lineage who were following him.

As Mu Feilong advanced, the dark, arrayed elite warriors of Xiaoyang behind him transformed into a long dragon, charging towards the human camp.

Those owls who previously harassed the human race and rushed towards the camp from all directions were merely soldiers from various tribes who had been conscripted; they were the true protagonists tonight.

Slaughter all of humanity.

Tonight, Mu Feilong gathered the remnants of the army that had retreated from Yangshan Market, assembled 100,000 elite troops, and recruited another 100,000 tribal soldiers from various tribes as auxiliary forces, mostly for the purpose of harassment.

Mu Long followed beside Mu Feilong, wielding his spear, feeling his blood and qi surge from his body, rushing straight to the top of his head.

Kill kill kill!

From today onwards, it will become famous throughout the Xiaoyang tribes.

shhhhhh!
On the defensive wall formed by the large carts, giant arrows rang out and blasted towards the oncoming Xiaoyang.

Compared to previous incursions, this time Xiaoyang launched a full-scale attack.

The giant arrow, carrying the remains of the owl-like creature, pierced through hundreds of feet and then through more than a dozen other owl-like creatures.

Boom boom boom!

Even with the giant arrows fired in rapid succession, they could not stop the impact of so many owl suns. Soon, one owl sun after another crashed directly into the defensive wall of the cart.

One head, two heads...

Boom!

Finally, a section of the defensive wall collapsed, and Xiao Yang charged in, howling.

Oh oh oh!
At that moment, a bugle call sounded.

The large carts that hadn't yet been pushed aside started moving quickly, and a dozen or so tribal soldiers grabbed the specially designed arms of the carts and charged towards the oncoming Xiaoyang.

A square cast iron block appeared on the carriage of the large vehicle, and long knives were stuck into the block.

With the long sword in front and the cart pushers behind, the group of Xiao Yangfu, who were at the forefront, were immediately riddled with holes.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Roar!
At the same time, as the chariots changed formation, the fire-blooded energy poured into the bronze chariots, charging towards Mu Feilong.

A violent aura swept through, making Luo Feng's long hair whip around and his mouth utter muffled sounds as he shouted "Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

After spending time with the child, Huotang felt that the child might have some mental problems.

However, it's not a big problem; it works the same way.

Seeing Huotang drive the chariot and charge out with Luo Feng, the more than four hundred Luoshui Heavenly Vein warriors had no choice but to follow on both sides of the chariot and charge out as well.

Under the cover of night, bursts of blood-red energy and flames erupted across the vast wasteland.

The giant Kui Niu, several dozen feet tall, shoved across the ground, knocking over the Xiao Yang Clan soldiers along the way, and charged towards Mu Feilong.

There was no way around it; Mu Feilong was very conspicuous. Perhaps he thought he was bound to win this battle, so he put on a magnificent set of witch-script armor that shone brightly in the night.

The fire blazed, and it seemed only the brightest one could be.

"Brother Qiuque, let's join forces and overturn the war chariot!"

As the chariots approached, Mu Feilong let out a long roar and unleashed a burst of spear light from his spear.

Qiu Que had suffered losses from chariots before, so he didn't hesitate at this moment and grabbed his spear to launch an attack.

But at that very moment, four or five streams of blood energy at the ninth level of the Heavenly Vein suddenly burst forth from both sides of the chariot, shattering the two falling spear beams.

This startled Mu Feilong.

Where the hell did all these people of the same rank come from?

"Kill them!"

On the chariot, Luo Feng roared.

……

Here at the main camp.

Bah! Bah!
One after another, the large tents were cleaved in two by gleaming longswords, and the heavy-sword-wielding warriors quickly rushed out of the formation and formed a battle array.

These were rehearsed a month before departure, and the tents were set up in the easiest way to form an array.

As Xiao Yang charged into the camp, he was met with a devastating attack the moment he looked up.

Puff puff!
Whether they charge straight at them or brandish their weapons, in the eyes of the Heavy Blade Guards, they only know how to swing their blades.

They quickly completed their separate actions.

kill!

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

The urgent bugle call sounded, and after using heavy swords to kill all the Xiaoyang soldiers who had stormed into the camp, the heavy sword squad quickly changed formation and charged towards the Xiaoyang elite soldiers outside the camp.

Thirty thousand heavily armored soldiers marched forward, causing the earth to shake and the mountains to tremble, their voices like thunder.

"what happened!"

The commotion startled Mu Feilong, who was colliding with the chariot.

Under the cover of night, the commotion was so astonishing, like a tidal wave crashing down, that it momentarily halted the charge of the Xiaoyang tribe soldiers.

Didn't we agree that the human race had been harassed to the point of exhaustion?
What the hell is that black wall, darker than the night sky?

The wall can also swing a knife.

Some of the eagles wanted to attack the Heavy Blade Guards from the flanks.

However, the heavy-armored guards on the flanks were moving sideways.

later?

Those who retreated walked behind.

Aren't they afraid of tripping over something?

Knives are everywhere; if you run into one, you'll either be torn apart or dismembered.

……

The vast battlefield was in chaos, filled with the sounds of fighting and shouting.

The centurion couldn't find his centurions, and the centurions looked around and found no soldiers left.

Whether it was the human race or the Owls, everything was thrown into disarray from the very beginning.
Huo Tang had anticipated this, and he led several hundred Luoshui Heavenly Vein warriors to keep a close eye on Xiaoyang Heavenly Vein Ninth Level and the Ten Thousand Commander.

The remaining tribal soldiers had already been warned not to approach the heavy swordsmen; they could just kill indiscriminately elsewhere.

The human race is in chaos, and so is Xiaoyang.

Only a group of dark figures marched with the force of thunder, remaining unmoved by the attacks from all directions, wielding their swords at their own rhythm.

Wherever they went, blood and mud were left behind.

"Damn it, you guys are all fine!"

Mu Feilong and Qiu Que, who were being attacked by four or five Heavenly Vein Ninth Level cultivators and the bronze chariot, were once again sent flying.

Both of them no longer had their commanders following them; they had been divided up by several hundred Luoshui Heavenly Vein warriors.

If Mu Feilong still couldn't see through the trap at this moment, he would be a complete fool.

The formation that moved across the wasteland like a dark cloud was powerful and profound with every strike.

He doesn't look like someone who's been disturbed for over half a month, unable to eat or sleep properly.

Even the elite soldiers of the Xiaoyang tribe were killed one after another when they charged in.

"Brother Feilong, let's retreat!"

After being forced back, Qiu Que turned around and fled into the distance.

How can we fight a war that's so dark and so bad?

"The military strategies of the Mu Yan lineage are indeed formidable!"

"Bastard!"

When Mu Feilong saw that Qiu Que had run away, even though he was confident that his combat strength far surpassed that of his peers, he could not put himself in danger.

"withdraw!"

"kill!"

As the Xiaoyang sounded the retreat, the Xiaoyang beasts began to scatter in all directions.

The Heavy Blade Guards stopped swinging their swords, but the remaining tens of thousands of tribal soldiers did not stop. They quickly gathered together, splitting into more than a dozen groups and chasing after the enemy in all directions.

Huotang turned his chariot around and charged towards the Xiaoyang tribe's cavalry.

With the addition of several hundred Celestial Vein Warriors and chariots, most of the two thousand Crocodile Dragon Cavalry were wiped out, with only a hundred or so escaping.

dawn.

There were injured Xiaoyangs everywhere who couldn't run anymore.

The desolate wilderness stretches for miles, littered with corpses and blood.

"Issue the order to capture all Xiaoyang and send them back to their tribe."

"Inform Ah-chan that our unit has won another great victory."

"Order the warships to sail north along the Guimu River and transport 200,000 tribal soldiers over. Next, sweep across one mountain range and marshland after another."

……

The Xiaoyang Camp north of Xueguan Mountain City.

"Reporting to the clan leader, news has come from the clan territory that humans have invaded and slaughtered hundreds of tribes of our Muyan bloodline, large and small. The Muxian tribe is almost wiped out."

"Reporting to the clan leader, Commander Mu Feilong suffered a major defeat at Heyang, losing over 200,000 soldiers."

　Sorry for the slow update, I'm still a bit dizzy. I initially thought it was from the air conditioning, which was blowing directly on the back of my neck, and I thought I caught a chill. But the doctor said no, it's probably from the constant hot and cold weather. That's only two updates today, totaling 11,000 words.
