Primordial Era: Exceptional Comprehension, Destroying Buzhou Mountain at the Start

Chapter 350 Failure means certain death and annihilation!

Di Xiao smiled with satisfaction and said to Zhao Yinman, who was standing beside him in astonishment, "Yinman, as a prodigy of a noble family, although you don't need to understand the changes in the way of war among humans, you should know that everything is constantly developing and changing from the moment it is born."

"The soldiers of Qin were undoubtedly the strongest force in their time. However, as time passed, the Qin soldiers who once swept across the six states became mediocre. This is because of the evolution and development of military strategy over countless years."

"During the Qin Dynasty, the key to victory or defeat in battles depended on favorable timing, terrain, and popular support, as well as the strength of the general leading the troops. However, since the end of the Qin Dynasty, the military genius Han Xin pioneered a new military strategy, linking an endless army with its commander, making them invincible on the battlefield."

"In subsequent dynasties, the art of war also transformed, from an army forming a battle formation, to everyone becoming part of the formation, the art of war and the spirit of the army... and in recent years, the supernatural powers of the art of war that I created. Each transformation of the art of war means a surge in the strength of the army."

"These terracotta warriors, though numerous and formidable in themselves, lack the foundation of military strategy. They're still using outdated tactics to fight me, the creator of this divine military art. Isn't that just courting death?"

Di Xiao spoke bluntly, showing no respect whatsoever to the terracotta warriors and the former soldiers of the Qin Dynasty.

Perhaps the Qin generals were once very strong, but they are now truly outdated.

Zhao Yinman, being intelligent, naturally understood Di Xiao's meaning, her expression shifting between amusement and exasperation. Ultimately, she witnessed the terracotta army being swept away by Di Xiao's army, a force born of battle intent.

The few remaining terracotta warriors were all powerful beings, especially those at the Taiyi realm.

Facing these Taiyi Realm experts, Di Xiao showed no fear. His battle intent surged, and his intertwined and evolving army roared: "With the army's assistance and battle intent amplified, unleash the divine power of military strategy!"

In an instant, the countless soldiers manifested by Di Xiao intertwined and merged into one, becoming part of Di Xiao's body. In that instant, the army and Di Xiao became one, causing Di Xiao's aura to surge, and he then carried the power of countless armies, evolving into the Divine Power of Military Dao - War Dao of the Eight Desolations.

Unrestrained military prowess, brimming with boundless domineering power and fighting spirit, charged straight at the Taiyi Realm expert before him.

The terracotta warriors of the Taiyi realm, with their cold expressions and boundless sharpness, charged forward wielding their spears.

A deafening explosion erupted, causing a great commotion. But amidst the chaos, Di Xiao had already led his army into a fierce battle with them.

In the midst of the battle, Di Xiao grew stronger and more courageous with each fight. Even when surrounded by numerous Taiyi Realm experts, he still maintained the upper hand.

It's not that Di Xiao's current cultivation level far surpasses the Taiyi realm, but rather that Di Xiao has the support of a large army and the assistance of military supernatural powers, so he can naturally achieve the power to reverse the Taiyi realm with his peak Golden Immortal level.

Besides these, there are these terracotta warriors who appear to possess the cultivation level of the Taiyi realm. However, because they have transformed into terracotta warriors, their strength is definitely weakened considerably.

After a long and fierce battle, Di Xiao finally killed the last terracotta warrior at the Taiyi realm.

Scattered across the vast land are countless fragments of terracotta warriors. Even the many bronze spears, once forged, are now broken and dilapidated.

Di Xiao, panting heavily and covered in wounds, had a different kind of brilliance shining in his deep, double pupils, and his fighting spirit was still hard to quell: "These terracotta warriors are really tough to deal with. They don't know fatigue, they don't know life or death, they don't know pain. Even after I crushed their bodies, they still attacked me. If such soldiers were not limited by the terracotta warriors themselves, they would definitely be the strongest elite troops in the army."

Although Di Xiao won, he couldn't help but admire the elite strength and willpower of the Qin soldiers. The battle spirits that had been integrated into the terracotta warriors truly fought to the last drop of blood, and they were incredibly frenzied in battle.

Zhao Yinman came over to help Di Xiao, her eyes still brimming with excitement and shock: "Di Xiao, are you really a peak Golden Immortal? Those were nine terracotta warriors at the Taiyi realm, and you actually..."

"Haha...you've already seen the result, haven't you? Alright, enough with the shocking nonsense, let's hurry up and go treasure hunting. All those years of hard work, isn't this what we've been striving for?" Di Xiao didn't want to waste time talking to Zhao Yinman now; what he craved now was resources, treasures.

We don't know what this treasure, guarded by so many terracotta warriors, actually is.

Immediately after recovering slightly, Di Xiao followed Zhao Yinman into the core of the city.

The heart of this city is a palace, which is also where treasures are stored.

Upon entering, a surge of pure dragon energy spread out, accompanied by numerous dragon roars. Then, nine golden dragon phantoms appeared, encircling a small, indistinct entity, whose spiritual root or something else was unknown.

Di Xiao frowned and quickly searched through his knowledge, but found no information about the object in front of him.

Surrounded by dragon energy, it resembled some kind of spiritual root, but this spiritual root was small, like a flower, and now it was bearing a special fruit.

"Iman, do you know..." Di Xiao turned his head and looked at Zhao Yinman beside him. As a daughter of a prominent family, her knowledge was not low.

Zhao Yinman was slightly stunned at this moment, muttering the numbers: "One, two, three... nine! Hiss... this is actually a Nine Transformations Dragon Source Fruit!"

"Nine Transformations Dragon Source Fruit?" Di Xiao murmured to himself, pondering, sensing that this item was not simple.

Zhao Yinman was extremely excited at this moment: "Di Xiao, this Nine Transformations Dragon Source Fruit cannot be considered an innate spiritual root, but its preciousness and wonderful uses far surpass those of spiritual root fruits such as ginseng fruit and peaches of immortality."

"The reason why it is so precious is that the Nine Transformations Dragon Source Fruit is made up of the true dragons that failed to transform, condensing all that they have become."

"A true dragon failed to transform? I have heard of that. Like the phoenix's rebirth, the dragon race also has a method of transformation. And the dragon race's method of transformation looks just like a snake shedding its skin. Of course, many snakes in the prehistoric world are also transforming into dragons."

"If a dragon suffers a severe injury, or wishes to improve itself, it can undergo a transformation to achieve its goal. However, the danger of a dragon's transformation is no less than that of the phoenix's rebirth. Each transformation not only requires vast resources to replenish itself, but also involves a life-or-death trial. If it succeeds, the Great Dao is within reach. If it fails, it will perish!"

Emperor Xiao's own wife, Wu Meiniang, was very clear about the dragon race's transformation method because she had inherited the legacy of the Phoenix Ancestor.

But he couldn't quite figure out the Nine Transformations Dragon Source Fruit in front of him.

"Every transformation of a dragon is a high-stakes gamble. Success is good, but failure means certain death. However, for the descendants of dragons who seek power, even if the transformation is dangerous, they still pursue it. Only through continuous transformation can they become true dragons."

"In the primordial world today, all descendants of the Scaled Armor Clan can transform into true dragons through nine metamorphosis. Unfortunately, under the great test of time, very few succeed. And most of the Scaled Armor descendants who fail to transform are reduced to ashes, leaving no trace. But there are always exceptions. If a Scaled Armor descendant incorporates resources such as creation and life into their transformation, there is a certain chance that after a failed transformation, their essence, along with creation and life, will be condensed and transformed into a special fruit. And this fruit is the Dragon Origin Fruit."
