The front-line warriors of the Ironclad Army raised their shields, and a yellowish-brown halo surrounded the shields.

In an instant, hundreds of earthen-yellow rays of light flashed, forming a stone wall in an attempt to block the onslaught of the rain.

13 However, the sword energy in the rain was invincible. The stone wall shattered rapidly under the impact of the sword energy, and hundreds of iron cavalry were cut by the sword energy. Blood mist filled the air, and screams were heard incessantly.

Upon seeing this, Chen Zhibao roared in anger.

"The earth dragon turns over!"

The earth suddenly trembled, the ground cracked open, and countless earthen dragons burst forth from the ground, roaring as they charged towards the rain.

These earthen dragons were formed from the killing intent of the Ironclad Cavalry, possessing invincible killing power.

Rainy Day's gaze sharpened, and his sword turned.

"Thunder roars through the heavens!"

With a single sword strike, dark clouds filled the sky, thunder roared, and thick bolts of lightning struck the earth dragon like the wrath of a god.

The lightning collided with the earth dragon, unleashing a deafening roar. In the blink of an eye, the earth dragon shattered and turned into dust.

Upon witnessing this scene, Chen Zhibao's face turned ashen, and he hurriedly gave orders in a panic.

"Archers, fire!"

Thousands of archers simultaneously drew their bows, the dark arrows gleaming coldly, and shot towards the rain-soaked sky.

Yu Tian sneered, his figure flashed, turning into several afterimages, dodging most of the arrows.

He brandished the longsword formed by his right-hand sword fingers, accompanied by a cold shout.

"Ten thousand swords return to the clan!"

Hundreds of sword energies shot out from all directions towards the archers, as fast as meteors, instantly piercing through the enemy ranks. The archers screamed in agony as they fell one after another.

In an instant, rocks collapsed and cracks appeared all over the ground.

Rainy Day's sword light crisscrossed the battlefield, repeatedly repelling the Ironclad Army's offensive. However, they remained tenacious and formed ranks again, surrounding Rainy Day completely.

Chen Zhibao roared angrily.

"Mysterious Ice Seals the Heavens!"

The Iron Pagoda's halberd pointed straight to the sky, its unstoppable killing intent piercing through the heavens. Crimson blood lines coalesced into pillars of blood, forcefully piercing the sky.

The sky suddenly turned cold, the chill was biting, and countless icicles fell from the sky.

Unperturbed by the rain, he drew an arc with the longsword formed in his right hand, and the phantom of the demon god slowly emerged behind him.

"Flame burns the sky!"

A raging fire suddenly rose from the tip of the longsword, colliding with the ice cone and creating a deafening explosion. Flames and frost intertwined in the air, forming a magnificent spectacle.

His gaze was sharp as a torch in the rain, his sword intent was boundless, he took a deep breath, and pointed his sword straight at the sky.

"Demon slaying!"

A dazzling sword light shot into the sky, piercing the heavens and earth, and the world seemed to fall silent. Then, the sword light suddenly slashed down, its sword energy crisscrossing, shattering everything in its path.

Finally, it transformed into a giant golden dragon, attacking the Ironclad Cavalry. Behind it, the phantom of a demon god wielded two swords, slashing fiercely at Chen Zhibao.

Upon seeing this, Chen Zhibao's expression changed drastically. With a flash of his sword, the battle formation collapsed, and tens of thousands of cavalrymen fell like wheat awns, their blood staining the earth red.

Chen Zhibao was directly blasted into dust by the sword energy of the demon god's phantom and disappeared into this world.

The six thousand Ironclad Cavalry had been transformed into countless corpses. Mountains of corpses and seas of blood, the killing intent and sorrow soaring to the heavens.

Standing with his hands behind his back in the rain, gazing in the direction of the Li Yang royal family, he thought, "After this battle, Zhao Fengya, you should believe that I have the ability to help you ascend the throne."

Chapter 133: Merging with the Undying Heavenly Technique, Strength Soars

Meanwhile, at a wine stall outside Lingzhou City, Xu Fengnian and Chu Lushan gazed grimly at the rainy sky atop the mountain.

"Holy crap. Is this even human?"

Chu Lushan's small eyes darted around.

"He's utterly useless. Six thousand ironclad cavalrymen slaughtered one man, and the entire army was wiped out. Even if you put a pig in command, they couldn't achieve this result."

Xu Fengnian said through gritted teeth.

After hearing Xu Fengnian's words, Chu Lushan muttered something that sounded slightly unconvinced.

"Although I don't get along with Chen Zhibao, his military command ability is evident to all in the Northern Liang army."

"The so-called white-clad war god is not something that can be fabricated."

Xu Fengnian was already full of resentment, and when he saw Chu Lushan still indirectly praising the power of rain, he immediately lost his temper.

"If General Chu thinks that Yu Tian is too powerful and that my Northern Liang army is no match for him, then there is no need to waste time in front of a commoner like me."

"After all, you are a third-rank military officer, while I am just a commoner without military rank or official position."

Xu Fengnian said coldly.

"Your Highness is joking. I, Lu Qiu'er, am Your Highness's dog, but I have firsthand experience of Chen Zhibao's power."

"Today, Chen Zhibao led six thousand Iron Cavalry to their tragic deaths before me and the Crown Prince. I merely wish to remind the Crown Prince of the enemy's strength."

"We can deal with him from behind."

Chu Lushan said with a smile.

After hearing Chu Lushan's words, Xu Fengnian's expression improved a bit. Once he calmed down, he looked at the corpses scattered all over the mountainside.

His eyes were filled with deep fear. What he had just said about how even a pig could kill Yutian as a leader was just an angry outburst.

Chen Zhibao's reputation and status in the Northern Liang army were earned step by step through his military achievements.

Therefore, Chen Zhibao was not a good-for-nothing, but a true new generation of military genius of Beiliang.

The person who could kill the Northern Liang military god and his six thousand Iron Cavalry soldiers could no longer be called human; it was he himself who had a grudge against him in the first place.

Xu Fengnian couldn't help but feel annoyed. He began to recall how he had known this person since they met. He seemed to have never intentionally offended him, but this person had been very unfriendly to him from the very beginning.

Meanwhile, on the city wall of Lingzhou City.

Jian Jiuhuang and Li Chungang set up a table, drank some wine, and gazed at the battlefield not far away.

"Where did you guys meet this kid?"

Li Chungang drank the wine in his cup, looked at Jian Jiuhuang, and asked in confusion.

After hearing the amazement in Li Chungang's words, Jian Jiuhuang frowned and thought carefully.

"When I returned to Lingzhou City with the young master, we encountered the remnants of Western Chu at the apricot blossom wine stall in Lingzhou City."

"Then he suddenly appeared, asked a remnant of the Western Chu for a cup of wine, and then sat there quietly drinking."

"It wasn't until my Northern Liang army arrived that he took action and rescued the remnants of Western Chu."

Li Chungang nodded at Jian Jiuhuang's words.

"This boy's swordsmanship is divine; every sword strike and every move can draw upon the power of heaven and earth."

"If my mindset hadn't been damaged back then, the outcome between us would have been even, but now I'm no match for him."

Li Chungang said regretfully.

"Sword God, do you want to fight him?"

Jian Jiu, flashing his large yellow teeth, asked curiously.

“Sparring with a swordsman whose swordsmanship is divine can provide many insights.”

Li Chungang smiled faintly.

"If his current strength were ranked among the world's strongest, where would he be among the top few?"

Jian Jiuhuang continued to ask.

"Currently, his strength is no match for Wang Xianzhi. He can't even beat Wang Xianzhi, so let's just put him in fifth place for now. But he's still young."

Li Chungang replied with a faint smile.

Immediately afterwards, he felt a sense of enlightenment. His shattered sword heart, which had been damaged since he accidentally killed the green-robed boy, was now miraculously repaired.

He seemed to have grasped many things he had never grasped before.

"Old Huang, it seems I've rediscovered my passion for swordsmanship."

"You protect me, and I will sit cross-legged to consolidate my strength."

After saying that, Li Chungang sat down cross-legged and began to consolidate his cultivation.

Meanwhile, Xu Xiao, who was far away in the suburbs, received the military report and immediately kicked over the table with the wine jars.

"Who exactly is this person in the rain? He actually killed Zhibao, and also killed six thousand of my Iron Cavalry."

"In this whole world, there are only a handful of swordsmen who can rival my thousand Ironclad Cavalry. Where did this kid come from? Why have I never heard of him before?"

Xu Xiao pressed his adopted son, Ye Xizhen, for an answer.

“Godfather, it’s as if he descended from the heavens. I’ve searched through all the intelligence in Liyang, Beimang, and the countries beyond the borders, but I still haven’t found any information about his identity.

"He seemed to appear out of thin air, suddenly appearing on the road on which Feng Nian returned to Lingzhou City."

Ye Xizhen presented all the intelligence she could gather to Xu Xiao.
