Chapter 728: Chapter 230: Ning Zhuo, What Are You Doing?!

Liangzhu Country Camp.

In the secluded chamber of the General’s office, Du Tiechuan sat cross-legged on a cushion, his eyes open.

The images in his eyes kept shifting, revealing scenes from the battlefield.

Since the second grand battle began, Du Tiechuan had already interrupted his healing, secretly monitoring the fierce fighting outside.

Compared to before, he looked even thinner. His already sharp features now appeared skeletal.

His complexion was poor, very pale, and bloodless.

From the battle with the Ginseng Whisker Dragon King until now, his injuries had not yet healed.

Healing turned out to be much more challenging than Du Tiechuan had initially estimated.

The fierce clashes of the Nascent Soul Level, the mutual collisions of armies, countless soldiers continuously dying… All these scenes fell into Du Tiechuan’s eyes, yet did not stir the slightest ripple in his heart.

He was concerned with only one thing.

And that was— Where is the Ginseng Whisker Dragon King?

The greatest factor affecting the Thousand Peak Forest’s pacification battle was the struggle of Divinity Transformation!

Du Tiechuan knew his state was poor and worried that the Ginseng Whisker Dragon King had already recovered. So, he’d rather sit back and watch the fierce battles outside and endure, quietly waiting for the Ginseng Whisker Dragon King to reveal its whereabouts.

“Evenly matched.”

“Although our side is well-trained and has the advantage of terrain, there is still a considerable gap in high-level combat power.”

“The Thousand Peak Forest Alliance Army has seized this opportunity; this time, they are playing to their strengths.”

Du Tiechuan’s battle experience was incredibly rich. As one of the Upper Generals of Liangzhu Country, he naturally had profound military acumen.

He observed the battlefield for a long time, concluding in his heart: “If this continues, both sides will keep bleeding, eventually leading to mutual destruction, ending with the Thousand Peak Forest side’s gradual retreat.”

“Huh?”

At the next moment, his expression slightly changed, for he saw a certain place on the battlefield.

His heartbeat quickened a bit, and he felt a surge of joy: “The Three Generals Camp can actually hold off Xiang Yue?!”

“If they can maintain this situation and pin down Xiang Yue, our chances of victory will greatly increase.”

Both sides were in a stalemate, with every action affecting the whole.

According to Du Tiechuan’s calculations, if Ning Zhuo could hold the local battlefield, the effects would continue to spread, ultimately making the war results greatly favor Liangzhu Country.

“This is the pivot that could change the second grand battle!”

A gleam of excitement flashed in Du Tiechuan’s eyes as he began to focus on the battle between Ning Zhuo and Xiang Yue.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Every strike from Xiang Yue was still tremendously powerful, his force as formidable as a mountain flood.

Ning Zhuo controlled the Hundred-Armed Arhat Armor, and each block required using multiple arms simultaneously to barely maintain the situation.

Even so, he was still continuously retreating in the clashes with Xiang Yue.

“Mechanical Techniques may be at the bottom of Cultivation Hundred Skills, but when perfected, its power is also impressive.”

Xiang Yue suddenly spoke, breaking the previous silence.

“Human clan’s little talent, do you have any new tricks?”

Liu Guanzhang and Ning’s four faces immediately became solemn.

Xiang Yue’s leisurely attitude made them all realize that he had been calm and collected all along!

Ning Zhuo felt like a heavy boulder was pressing on his heart, experiencing immense pressure.

“I need to be faster, stronger!”

He kept urging himself internally, squeezing every bit of his potential under the pressure Xiang Yue brought, rapidly transforming.

The Mechanical Arm, which he was not very adept at using, was advancing at a visible rate.

Even Xiang Yue marveled in secret: “Humans are indeed the most intelligent beings. There is some truth to this statement. When will our elephant herd produce such a genius junior?”

Thinking this, Xiang Yue briefly let his mind wander.

“An opportunity!” Ning Zhuo sharply sensed this and immediately seized it.

In the next moment, he decisively deployed the strongest offensive he had developed with the Hundred-Armed Arhat Armor.

Buddhist Law— Vajra Body Protection.

Martial Arts Array— Zen Wind Flying Fist Formation.

Buddhist Law— Moonlight Salvation Skill.

Merge!

Mechanical Techniques— Golden Moon Zen Wind Fist!

In an instant, fist shadows filled the sky!

Eight golden arms, like giant pillars or dragon pythons, stirred up countless fist shadows, densely packed, dazzling. Silver moons intertwined, brilliant and radiant!

Ning Zhuo unleashed a wave of fierce offensives, so powerful that Liu Guanzhang instinctively dodged, all of them were alarmed.

Fist shadows flew, hitting Xiang Yue’s body, yet there was no heavy impact sound, only a series of wind sounds.

Zen Wind, Zen Wind.

The wind sound contained subtle Buddha’s intent, continuously permeating into Xiang Yue’s body and mind.

Xiang Yue’s body swayed, then he took a step back.

Although it was just one step, it made Liu Guanzhang’s eyes widen and shocked the numerous cultivators closely watching this battle from afar.

The Elephant King retreated!

Today’s Elephant King Xiang Yue was actually forced to retreat by someone head-on!

This hadn’t happened in many years.

And the one who achieved this was surprisingly a young cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage!

Incredible.

If not witnessed personally, the vast majority of people wouldn’t believe such a scene could occur.

“There’s hope, we have hope for victory!” Zhao Xi, though not well-versed in military strategies, realized this was an opportunity for victory upon seeing this scene.

Shuangjing was somewhat dazed, then a strong sense of regret surged in his heart.

“If I had known this kid had such combat talent, I shouldn’t have become enemies with him.”

Even the Mechanical Princess Shuang Ling, witnessing this scene, nodded slightly: “I didn’t expect this boy Ning Zhuo to be so capable. If we win this battle, he must be greatly rewarded!”

Shuang Ling and Ning Zhuo had significant conflicts.

But at this moment, she couldn’t help but develop an appreciation for Ning Zhuo and was willing to show goodwill towards him, to befriend this promising young junior!
