Chapter 922 Nirvana Battle, All Players Make Meritorious Contributions
at the same time.
The battle at Ma Wang Mountain has also entered a fierce stage.
First, there was the battle in the Star Luo Realm. Since the patrol envoys were stronger than ordinary bandits, and they all knew how to use the Three Offices Battle Technique, especially the combined attack technique, which was incredibly powerful, they quickly wiped out these small fry.
Those who remained, especially the stronger ones, could only fight and retreat.
Meanwhile, in the sky, the great battle belonging to the Nirvana Realm intensified.
The two Nirvana Realm commanders were indeed exceptionally strong. Even though their cultivation was slightly weaker than the two bandit leaders, their combined combat techniques and divine weapons allowed them to fight evenly, and the commanders even gained the upper hand.
Seeing that their men were either dead or wounded, and that half of the Ma Wang Mountain's territory had been razed to the ground, and that the Demon Suppression Division had surrounded them on all sides, the two bandit leaders were trapped with no way to escape.
They panicked immediately, and a genuine sense of fear gripped their hearts.
This time, it seems the Demon Suppression Division is serious!
The second-in-command immediately shouted, "Big Brother! Help! The brothers can't hold on any longer!"
This loud shout attracted everyone's attention.
In the largest building in the stronghold, a man three meters tall, shirtless, with a red horse's head and bulging muscles, slowly stepped out.
He was carrying a pale, lifeless woman's body in his right hand; she was clearly the poor soul he had just toyed with and killed.
The horse demon casually tossed the corpse aside, his cold eyes sweeping over it, causing Lei Dasheng and another Nirvana commander to tremble with fear.
Cold sweat poured out instantly, and the two abandoned the fight without hesitation, retreating to the gate of the mountain stronghold.
Seeing this, the horse demon snorted disdainfully, then opened its mouth and let out a low, rumbling roar.
"A bunch of useless trash, it's good that they're dead. It saves us from wasting food and ruining my mood."
It turns out that the leader of Ma Wang Mountain is not human at all, but a demon emperor in the Nirvana Realm.
Its true form is a demon emperor, and its personality is extremely irritable.
With a surge of his demonic power, a large ringed iron sword appeared in his hand. His muscular physique almost burst open his trousers, and many of the demon-suppressing officials instinctively retreated upon seeing this.
"Peak of the fifth stage of Nirvana..."
The two commanders were also apprehensive, their brows furrowed deeply.
No matter how hard we fight, it's useless if we can't deal with this guy; we're doomed to lose.
Fortunately, at that moment, two more figures emerged from the shadows.
It was Wang Xun and Yan Wenduan.
Lei Dasheng immediately cupped his hands in greeting: "Greetings, General Wang and General Yan!"
Wang Xun was secretly pleased upon hearing this.
I've been called a general, and it feels really good.
He sneered, "What Horse King Mountain? It's just a stable, and it's full of those impure, low-quality wild horses. General Yan, what's that kind of horse called again?"
Yan Wenduan smiled slightly: "Mongrel horse."
"Yeah! It's a mixed breed! The kind nobody rides, hahaha!"
Wang Xun didn't hold back in his sarcastic remarks.
At that moment, the faces of the second and third leaders on the opposite side turned pale instantly.
"Oh no, Big Brother has been enraged!"
"We're doomed. We're probably losing every last one of our henchmen..."
The two quietly retreated, not daring to utter a single word.
The horse demon, who had been called a bastard, was now furious. His eyes were icy cold, his veins were bulging, and his sword was clanging loudly.
"you wanna die!"
He didn't even bother to ask who the person was before he swung his knife and started slashing.
"Well done!"
Wang Xun also shouted, and his long sword instantly met the attack.
But with just one strike, Wang Xun was sent flying with a thunderous boom, a bloody gash appearing in his palm.
The difference in cultivation level still exists; in a direct confrontation, Wang Xun is no match for the sword.
But the greatest strength of human martial artists has never been fighting head-on.
When his first attack failed, he immediately switched to a different martial art, unleashing a barrage of sword energy.
Yan Wenduan didn't waste any words with him either, and thrust out his long sword. The two of them were working together for the first time, and they actually showed an unusual level of tacit understanding.
"What are you all standing there for! Come at me all at once!"
Yan Wenduan shouted, and the two Nirvana commanders immediately joined the battle.
When facing demons, there's no need for one-on-one fights; ganging up on them is the only way to win.
Meanwhile, the second and third leaders on the opposite side immediately joined the battle. In an instant, demonic shadows swirled above Mount Ma Wang, true energy soared into the sky, and the flashing swords almost crushed the clouds.
Some martial artists with weaker cultivation levels couldn't even see what was happening.
A full quarter of an hour later, with a scream, Yan Wenduan seized the opportunity and thrust out his sword, killing the third leader of Ma Wang Mountain on the spot. The primordial spirit opposite him tried to escape, but was instead grabbed by the horse demon.
"Since they're already dead, we might as well make use of them."
After saying that, the horse demon opened its mouth and swallowed the third leader's primordial spirit.
His demonic power surged instantly, and his eyes turned blood red, as if he had fallen into a state of madness.
In this four-on-two situation, even though Ma Yao was powerful, he was overwhelmed by the various combat tactics and suffered numerous injuries.
He roared, "Demon Suppression Division! You have committed a grave offense! You destroyed my Ma Wang Mountain, do you think that lord will let you off?! You are harming the humans in the vicinity, and they will all die because of your actions!"
The horse demon wasn't stupid after all; it knew that continuing the fight was pointless, so it directly issued a threat.
Yan Wenduan and Wang Xun exchanged a glance, then Yan said coldly, "What nonsense are you spouting?"
Upon hearing this, the horse demon suddenly burst into wild laughter.
"Hahahaha! Nonsense? You two are definitely not from Luoyan Prefecture. Well then, I'll take pity on you and remind you that I work for a very important person. If you kill me, it will affect that person's reputation, and you won't be able to bear the consequences!"
The demon horse spoke menacingly, as if it had already seized the lifeline of the Demon Suppression Division.
That's right, he was actually just a subordinate, merely a tool for stronger demons to collect offerings.
If I just mention that person's name, these Demon Suppression Division members will be too afraid to act, and they will definitely not dare to make a move.
Just then, a loud bang echoed in the sky, and a blood-red, hideous head crashed onto the open ground.
"Is the important person you're talking about him?"
A calm voice rang out, and everyone in the Demon Suppression Division was stunned for a moment, then their eyes lit up with joy.
"This is... General!"
The horse demon was also stunned, but it was because of the bloody pangolin head on the ground.
This aura... it's just like that of a deity...
But wasn't he a great demon who had undergone seven cycles of Nirvana? How come only his head is left...?
wrong!
In an instant, a sense of horror spread throughout the horse demon's body, and cold sweat and goosebumps appeared like raindrops.
He finally realized that his backer had been killed!
Meanwhile, on another mountain near Ma Wang Mountain, Liu Zilong, who had been secretly observing, also widened his eyes, his expression incredibly interesting.
"How is this possible! When did that kid go and kill the Great Tooth Fairy?! That's way too fast!"
Liu Zilong was naturally aware of the existence of the Great Tooth Immortal, and he had once thought of expelling this demon who dared to cross the line and eat incense offerings.
However, due to his cultivation level of seven Nirvana stages, they have not made any moves.
But who would have thought that General Ye would take care of this guy on his very first day in office!
Liu Zilong was completely bewildered.
On Mount Ma Wang, the horse demon was no longer as arrogant as before; only fear filled its eyes.
Cold sweat dripped down his back, and he knelt down before Ye Kang without hesitation.
"My lord, spare me! It was the Great Tooth Fairy who forced me to become a bandit! If I refused, he would kill me!"
Ye Kang looked coldly at the tragic scene around him.
"So, you didn't get a single offering?"
"Absolutely not! He monopolized all the offerings. Thank you, sir, for saving me from his clutches!"
"Then you deserve to die even more."
Without hesitation, Ye Kan unleashed his Myriad Flower Sword Finger, instantly severing the horse demon's head and shattering his demonic soul.
Everyone was stunned by what they saw.
Wang Xun and Yan Wenduan were utterly astonished. The horse demon that had put them in such a difficult battle was completely defenseless and was instantly defeated by Ye Kang. Such combat power was beyond their imagination!
"Is this the true value of winning first place in the All-Encompassing Dharma Assembly...?"
"Lord Ye is truly a hero! Following him is the right thing to do!"
The commanders, including Lei Dasheng, all gasped in astonishment, their eyes filled with fervor as they looked at Ye Kang.
Although the previous demon-suppressing generals also had the desire to eliminate demons, they certainly did not possess such effortless strength. No wonder the imperial court would send a general out of the country; his strength is truly reassuring.
"I surrender! I'm willing to confess everything!"
The only surviving second-in-command immediately knelt down, sealed his cultivation, and trembled uncontrollably.
This is terrifying! This general is completely different from the previous ones!
Wang Xun immediately went up and tied him up, and the remaining bandits of Ma Wang Mountain also knelt down immediately, giving up all resistance.
With their leader gone, any further resistance from them would be tantamount to suicide.
Ye Kang didn't need to do anything else; the commanders arranged everything methodically, and soon all the bandits of Ma Wang Mountain were captured and transported back to headquarters one by one.
Meanwhile, the cleanup efforts within the stronghold were also underway. Many innocent slaves were released, and the stronghold's warehouses were completely emptied.
There were naturally some treasures in the warehouse, but they were useless to Ye Kang. So he took inventory of them all and handed them over to headquarters, which was also a way to give the general an explanation.
Only after completing these steps can the operation be considered officially finished.
【Ding】
[Congratulations, host, on completing the mission: Annihilate Ma Wang Mountain]
[Host receives reward: 3000000 Comprehension]
Upon receiving the reward, Ye Kang did not hesitate and led everyone back to headquarters.
While no one was paying attention, the Brahman in the Jade Realm exerted his power, sending a faint thought into the minds of the freed slaves.
night.
In a nearby village, a filthy female slave was seen crying as she returned to the village.
"Father! Mother!"
"Who goes there! The bandits are here again!?"
"No, it looks like the girl from the Tian family, she's back!"
The whole village was shocked. None of the girls who had been kidnapped from the village before had ever returned alive; their fates were all incredibly tragic.
The whole village gathered around, and the village chief anxiously asked, "Child, how did you escape? Why would those bandits let you go?"
Overjoyed, the female slave cried, "There are no more bandits! The general of the Demon Suppression Division has wiped out all the bandits on Ma Wang Mountain! All the bandits are gone!"
"what!"
The entire village was shaken once again, and the same scene was playing out repeatedly in nearby villages.
It wasn't until the next morning that the martial artists from these villages went to Ma Wang Mountain with trepidation. Only after seeing the broken walls and the lingering bloodstains did they finally believe that it was true.
The village chief was overjoyed and hurriedly asked the female slave, "Child, what's that general's name? We need to build a temple for him!"
"I don't know his name, I only heard a title, something like, General Who Suppresses Water..."
"Great! This name is powerful. Let's gather everyone immediately and go to Ma Wang Mountain to build a temple for the Water-Suppressing General!"
The faint image of Brahma in the dark worked on the village chief, and soon, people from nearby villages gathered on Ma Wang Mountain.
……
Meanwhile, Ye Kang had already led everyone back to headquarters in high spirits.
In this bandit suppression operation, the entire Demon Suppression Division was mobilized, and not only were the enemy completely annihilated, but the Demon Suppression Division also suffered minimal losses.
Only a little over a hundred people were wounded, but none of them were seriously injured, and no one died in battle. It can be said that the victory was a great one.
Ye Kang was not stingy and had long ago ordered Yan Wenduan to do a good job of reporting merits after the battle, ensuring that everyone would have merits. This made all the inspectors and demon-suppressing officials smile with joy.
Many people have already secretly decided that they will go back and work hard to cultivate, and next time they follow General Ye, they will fight hard again and strive to make more contributions!
Inside the headquarters training ground, Liu Zilong, who had returned a step earlier, accompanied General Luo Qilin as they slowly walked over.
Liu Zilong told Luo Qilin everything that had happened, and the latter was also extremely surprised.
They had no doubt that Ye Kang could flatten Ma Wang Mountain, because that was the strength a great general should possess.
But none of them expected that Ye Kang would actually eliminate Ma Wangshan's backer first.
A seventh-level demon was gone just like that, and the demons couldn't say anything, or even openly cause trouble.
Since Feng County was under the jurisdiction of the Three Prefectures, it was only right that Da Ya Xian was killed for trespassing and establishing a temple.
Lochlin was overjoyed and came to see what was going on.
On the training ground, countless bandits knelt down, while two deputy generals of the Demon Suppression Division sat at the head of the table, their imposing presence intimidating everyone.
The clerks from the three prefectures, led by Kuang Zheng, questioned the bandits one by one.
These are all necessary procedures. Only with complete questioning and record-keeping can we properly report credits to everyone.
Even the lowly demon-suppressing officials who assisted in the work would be rewarded for their efforts, so the clerks were very meticulous and did not miss anyone.
Seeing this, Luo Qilin laughed and said, "It seems that this General Ye is indeed extraordinary. He made such a big commotion as soon as he arrived. I guess his colleagues in the Demon Suppression Division are thanking him in their hearts."
"That's true, after all, there aren't many opportunities for the whole team to make a contribution."
"Couldn't your Inspection Division and Demon Suppression Division be a little more clever? Next time he leads a team out, you can send someone along too."
"This... there's going to be a next time? If this is such a big commotion the first time, won't it exceed the control of the Three Offices next time?"
"Who knows? I don't think General Ye will end this so easily. By the way, where is he?"
"It seems like he went to cultivate as soon as he got back."
"Oh? You're not even reporting your achievements, so eager to cultivate? No wonder you're the top performer in the Heavenly Dharma Assembly, you're so diligent!"
