Chapter 52 Encirclement of the Alien Race
There were originally some Taoist temples that Su Ye had built for them in front of them. These temples were built against the mountain and constructed of wood and stone, making them appear simple and solemn.
However, after the arrival of the Wudang Sect and others, they used their skills and wisdom to meticulously redesign a magnificent Taoist temple based on these existing ones.
As time went by, a brand-new Taoist temple gradually rose up in the valley.
This Taoist temple is not only their home, but also their spiritual refuge and home.
With the joint efforts of everyone in the Wudang Sect, the brand-new Taoist temple was finally completed.
It stands tall and majestic, seemingly blending into the heavens and earth.
Inside the Taoist temple, statues of deities and ancestral tablets are enshrined, and the air is filled with the fragrance of incense, creating a pleasant and refreshing atmosphere.
Behind the Taoist temple, Su Ye also built a training ground for the Wudang disciples.
The terrain here is flat and open, making it suitable for training and martial arts competitions.
Every morning and evening, Wudang disciples can wear Taoist robes and diligently practice martial arts and internal energy cultivation in this training ground.
In addition to martial arts training, the Wudang School, being a Taoist sect, also emphasizes cultural and moral cultivation.
Therefore, Su Ye also set up a study room and a reading room for them in the Taoist temple, where they could study classic works and historical books.
As time went on, the forces of Cangzhou, after being brutally purged by Luo Wang, had become a flock of frightened birds.
Under these circumstances, the influence of the Wudang Sect, which is now clearly supported by Su Ye, is gradually expanding.
More and more martial arts practitioners in Cangzhou are unable to withstand the pressure from the Luo Wang organization and can only think about their own lives.
They could only shamelessly come to pay their respects, ostensibly to visit and exchange ideas with the Wudang disciples, to hone their skills and explore the mysteries of martial arts.
The Wudang Sect, which was aware of Su Ye's attitude towards the Jianghu forces in Cangzhou, also embraced heroes from all sides with an open and inclusive attitude, and made progress and grew together.
...
Just as the lives of the Wudang Sect members gradually settled down on this mountain gate's outpost...
In a desolate valley near the grasslands within Cangzhou, Ji Shunfu's isolated foreign army was heavily surrounded by the Cangzhou army led by Li Jing, and was trapped in the valley.
As for Su Ye's Heavenly Spirit Army, they had already escaped long ago and had no time to waste with them going around in circles.
Although the foreign army led by Ji Shunfu was small in number, each soldier was an elite warrior carefully selected from the Xiongnu army.
The soldiers of this foreign army wore iron armor, a rarity among the Xiongnu army, and carried spears and battle axes, as well as long-range weapons such as bows and arrows and catapults.
Such equipment is simply incredible among the iron-deficient alien races, possessing both formidable defensive and offensive capabilities.
Moreover, every Xiongnu soldier underwent rigorous training, was skilled in horseback archery and close combat, and possessed excellent fighting skills.
Previously, when facing Chang Ke's large army, they were able to easily shake off the cavalry led by Lian'er Xinshan and retreat calmly.
It can be said that if they hadn't been facing Li Jing, the commander of 103, who possessed a magical artifact from a foreign race, and hadn't been manipulated by the Luo Wang, the intelligence would have been unequal from the start.
We might not be able to catch them.
Therefore, even in the face of their current predicament, few of them backed down; instead, they were determined to fight the Cangzhou army to the death.
All around the valley, the camps of Li Jing's Cangzhou army stretched out in a continuous line, with banners fluttering in the wind.
The soldiers, clad in iron armor and wielding spears, built high walls around the valley.
They were numerous, well-equipped, and appeared menacing.
In the middle of the valley was a simple yet sturdy camp hastily erected by the alien army.
The elite warriors of this alien race built temporary shelters with stones and wood, and the entire camp was surrounded by a wooden fence.
They knew this was their last line of defense and their only hope for survival.
Within this cramped camp, the alien warriors were busy working in a tense but orderly manner.
They inspected weapons and equipment, reinforced the camp's defenses, and even assigned some personnel to patrol around the camp to guard against a surprise attack by the imperial army.
Despite facing a desperate situation, their eyes remained filled with determination and resolve, demonstrating the elite nature of this foreign army.
"All troops, listen to my command!"
Standing atop the valley, Li Jing looked at the foreign army within, his face expressionless, calmly waving his command flag.
Following Li Jing's orders, the Cangzhou army launched a general offensive against the foreign tribes in the valley.
Tens of thousands of troops surged into the valley from all directions, their iron hooves thundering and dust billowing.
The archers of the Cangzhou army unleashed a volley of arrows, raining down on the enemy army's camp.
Although the alien warriors raised their shields to protect themselves, many were still struck by arrows and fell unwillingly into pools of blood.
Under the cover of a hail of arrows, the infantry of the Cangzhou army surged into the valley like a tide, engaging in close combat with the alien warriors.
Swords clashed, flesh flew everywhere, and the air was thick with the stench of blood.
Although the alien warriors were brave and tenacious, they were still overwhelmed by the sheer number of Cangzhou troops.
"Haha, let's fight again, Ji Shunfu!"
At this moment, in the Cangzhou army, Baihu, dressed in white armor and riding a white horse, took the lead and charged straight at Jishunfu, who was directing the alien army to form a defensive formation.
Previously, Li Jing had led the Cangzhou army in pursuit of Ji Shunfu's isolated army for so long.
The White Tiger, who was chasing after Li Jing, naturally clashed with him several times.
However, he had previously prevented Baihu from killing him, which caused Baihu to be hesitant and restrained when facing Ji Shunfu, who was originally inferior to him.
Now we can finally launch a final offensive and send Ji Shunfu's isolated army to its doom.
Therefore, the White Tiger, who was originally holding back his anger, took the lead in the charge and headed straight for Ji Shunfu.
"Ding! White Tiger's skill God of War effects one, two, and three have activated, increasing attack power by 6. Currently on the battlefield, attack power is increased by 2. Currently leading cavalry in a charge, attack power is increased by 2."
When the skill White Tiger • Dual Mastery is activated (first and third effects), Attack Power +6. When facing an enemy using a single weapon, as long as the opponent's base Attack Power is not higher than yours, your weapon's bonus is doubled, and Attack Power +3.
When the second and fourth effects of the skill "Supervisor" are activated, your combat strength increases by 5, and your combat strength increases by 3 when facing alien races.
Weapons: White Tiger World-Slaying Spear, White Tiger Battle Blade +4; Divine Steed: White Tiger King Steed +1; Current Attack Power increased to 142!
Roar!
As the white-gold aura on the white tiger's body surged wildly, the white tiger behind it raised its head and let out a mind-shaking roar.
At this moment, the White Tiger held a sword and a spear, displaying a majestic and domineering posture.
The White Tiger Sacred Blade gleamed with a cold light, while the White Tiger World-Slaying Spear stood tall and straight as iron, displaying unparalleled martial prowess.
Every movement was full of power and speed, leaving people in awe.
His swordsmanship was superb; each swing of the blade was accompanied by a sharp whistling sound, which was terrifying.
Within the valley at that moment, the sword, like the shadow of a white-armored warrior, accompanied him, cutting through all obstacles in his path.
Neither the dense rain of arrows from the alien army nor the sturdy fence could stop his advance.
The White Tiger Slaughtering Spear in his hand was even more awe-inspiring.
His skill with the spear was unparalleled; sometimes he swept across the battlefield, and sometimes he pierced the enemy's heart.
On the battlefield, this spear is like a bolt of lightning, piercing the darkness and delivering a fatal blow to the enemy.
