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

Chapter 287 Eight Demon Kings, Divine Transformation Blood Blade, Barbarian Blood Sacrifice, Supporting the Future

After recalling these events, Di Xiao immediately said, "Inspect the protective formations inside and outside the Great Wall to ensure they can be activated at any time. The Black Tiger Army will be stationed at the Great Wall, guarding it at all times, with the Crimson Tiger Army ready to provide support. Also, archers, spearmen…"

Di Xiao's series of words echoed throughout the hall. Each command he issued was commendable. After all, Di Xiao's ability to deploy troops was derived from Han Xin.

Moreover, although Di Xiao had never commanded a major battle in reality, he had previously participated in the siege of Xiang Yu, the Hegemon-King, and had used his own body to create a battlefield to fight against the corrupt army.

It's fair to say that Di Xiao has fought countless battles. He has accumulated a wealth of experience.

Soon, Emperor Xiao finished issuing his orders: "All generals, listen to my command! Complete my orders as quickly as possible. Then, take command of the army and meet the enemy..."

"Yes, Young General!" the generals shouted, then stood up and began to act according to Di Xiao's orders.

Soon, the White Tiger army also began to get busy, with countless soldiers wearing armor and preparing for battle.

After a long time, Di Xiao, also wearing armor and holding a long spear, stood on the Great Wall, gazing at the Two Realms Mountain.

The location of the Two Realms Mountain appeared ordinary and unremarkable, devoid of any disturbance. Yet, a sense of impending doom emanating from the heavens filled everyone's hearts.

Everyone knew that the barbarians were invading and they had to fight back.

Amidst this solemn wait, bursts of roars and cries echoed from the land of the Two Realms Mountain.

Then they saw countless people with dark skin, wearing simple armor or leather armor, rushing out of the Two Realms Mountain.

Those people, though they looked like humans, all had dark skin and their hair was shaved down to just a few tufts that looked like rat tails.

However, they were enormous, each standing two or three meters tall, looking like giants.

Armed with weapons, they shouted, "Haha... We've finally entered the Eastern Divine Continent! Perfect land, abundant spiritual energy, this is paradise! My minions, follow me and kill! Break through the Great Wall, occupy the Eastern Divine Continent, and make this land our barbarian land!"

"My fellow Blue Barbarians, you all know this land, yet it is occupied by a group of weaklings. How dare these weak humans occupy such a treasure trove, a land free from war and rich in resources? Now we will take it over and make it our territory!" another barbarian roared.

However, with a roar, countless barbarians charged forward.

Seeing this, Di Xiao immediately raised his spear: "Enemy troops are attacking! Soldiers, prepare to fight! Archers..."

With a roar, the archers of the White Tiger army instantly unleashed countless arrows. These were no ordinary arrows; they were special arrows crafted using advanced weapon-forging techniques.

Arrows are crafted using a type of bamboo that reproduces extremely quickly as the core, with shallow runes carved on them, along with a small amount of minerals.

These arrows possess extremely high penetrating power and a bloodthirsty nature. In addition, there are many magical arrows; these branded arrows can unleash chills, flames…

In an instant, arrows blotted out the sky as they charged towards the barbarians.

The barbarians who charged forward paid no heed to the sight of so many arrows, and instead continued their charge.

"Sizzle, sizzle..."

Countless sounds of being pierced and painful screams echoed. These were the sounds of countless barbarians being shot and killed.

Despite the many barbarians being shot dead, they remained unconcerned and continued their charge.

Di Xiao frowned at this: "Although I know the barbarians aren't very intelligent, such a reckless charge—aren't they afraid of dying?"

"Who knows? In the past, the barbarians didn't launch large-scale invasions; they only waged small-scale wars. Back then, the barbarians also charged into battle, unafraid of death, but they weren't this reckless!" Xue Dingshan was also vaguely puzzled.

The barbarians launched a massive invasion, charging into battle fearlessly, truly displaying their bravery.

Despite their fierce fighting, Di Xiao, who was commanding the battle, was somewhat bewildered. He knew that the barbarians, for various reasons, were not particularly intelligent, but surely not this lowly?

The war was fought with such reckless charging, as if they were running to their deaths.

Yes, they're just throwing their lives away. Di Xiao felt something was off; the barbarians before him seemed to be coming to their deaths. If they were to invade in this suicidal manner, these barbarians would have no chance of getting close to the Great Wall, let alone breaching it.

Thinking this to himself, Di Xiao immediately ordered, "Since the enemy has come to their deaths, let's give them that chance. All generals, unleash your magic and supernatural powers to annihilate these barbarians who are coming to their deaths."

Immediately, the Crimson Tiger Army within the White Tiger Army unleashed their magic. Although it was merely the simplest fire magic, drawing upon magical power to transform into flames and attack the enemy, the combined power of tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of soldiers creating a vast sea of ​​fire.

Endless flames poured down, crashing into the barbarian army and exploding instantly. The endless flames raged, engulfing countless barbarians and annihilating them all.

Strong, absolutely strong.

Meanwhile, the rest of the army did the same. Each soldier cast spells, and when they combined, the power was undeniable.

Of course, using magic in this way was a waste for many soldiers who didn't have much magic power to begin with. Then came a barrage of arrows and spears, making it difficult for the barbarians to get close.

Amidst this carnage, Xue Dingshan also felt a sense of unease: "Brother Di Xiao, something's not right. The barbarians are just throwing their lives away like this; it makes no sense. If the barbarians were mindless, that would be one thing, but the demon clan's Great Luo experts standing behind them can't be that stupid!"

"I understand that too. So I guess that either this demon clan Grand Luo wants to sacrifice the endless barbarians to evolve some special supernatural power or special method, or this demon clan Grand Luo wants to use this suicide to harm the barbarians and achieve some special goal of his own." Di Xiao also didn't know what the demon clan Grand Luo behind the barbarians was up to.

At present, this is the only guess, and Di Xiao does not know whether the guess is true or false.

However, with the great battle ongoing, Di Xiao couldn't simply give up fighting the enemy just to prevent the demon clan's Great Luo from succeeding.

Therefore, the war continued, and the soldiers fought bravely against the enemy. Each soldier employed various methods, which gave Emperor Xiao much to ponder.

It seems the large-scale battles in Journey to the West unfold in this way. Previously, when dealing with Xiang Yu, the way troops fought was more like ancient warfare, with the soldiers possessing some level of cultivation.

But things are different now. They are engaged in fierce battles and killings, and all sorts of legion spells, legion supernatural powers, and various mysterious magic treasures and immortal artifacts are being used and transmitted.

The sheer number of tactics dazzled Di Xiao. His understanding gradually improved, allowing him to better strategize and deploy his troops in accordance with the realities of modern warfare.

The more Di Xiao observed, the more he understood. But the war continued.

The war continued, and Emperor Xiao remained in command of the army.

But as he took command, Di Xiao gradually began to feel something was amiss. This war had been going on for almost half a year, so where were the reinforcements? Where was General Xue Rengui?
