MARTIAL PEAK 5829

Afterwards, when the Universe Furnace closed, Ouyang Lie and Xiang Shan returned after advancing to the Ninth Order and took over the Mysterious Nether Army and the Blood Flame Army respectively, no one said anything. They had entered the Universe Furnace from the Mysterious Nether Territory and the Blood Flame Territory, so it could only be said that the two army there were lucky.

Many of the Chi Huo Army's Eighth Order masters had entered the Universe Furnace back then, but none of them had been able to break through to the Ninth Order.

By the time Smiles and Wu Qing broke free, the various armies were all eagerly waiting, hoping that these two Ninth Order will take charge of their army and strengthen the power of their army.

However, only two Ninth Order had managed to escape, while there are eight army without leader. In the end, it was decided by the Head Office that Smiles would lead the Yun Xiao Army while Wu Qing would lead the Zi Hong Army.

It wasn't that no one had thought of combining the twelve great armies into six, but how could they do it, how could six Ninth Order be enough?

However, now that the Human Race had a large number of armies on each side, if two armies joined together, their numbers would increase. At that time, although they would be able to increase the strength of their armies, it would also be difficult to coordinate with each other.

What's more, in the future, the Human Race would produce even more Ninth Order. When that time came, would they have to split up their armies?

With such considerations in mind, the Head Office insisted on maintaining the status quo of the twelve armies.

However, in this way, half of the army would not have a Ninth Order in charge, and the Head Office would have no choice but to mobilize the Holy Spirit to assist in the battle and maintain the balance.

"The Head Office also has its own difficulties, what are you shouting for?" Hearing Zhao Li's complaints, Wang Qian couldn't help shouting.

"I know," Zhao Li's temper was fiery, but it wasn't that he didn't know what was good for him. Normally, he wouldn't talk about such things, but the current situation was far too unfavorable and there was a high chance he would fall here. When a person was about to die, how could he care about anything else?

"If you have the ability, you can advance to the Ninth Order. When the time comes, you will be in charge of Chi Huo Army," Wang Qian scolded.

Zhao Li was furious, "Advance my ass, Eighth Order is my limit… And those bastards from the Logistics Department, why wouldn't they agree if I wanted to use my battle merits to exchange for materials and modify my Battleship? My battle merits were earned painstakingly, why couldn't I modify my Battleship? If I had modified my Battleship earlier, how could I have fallen into such a predicament? Even if I became a ghost, I wouldn't let those bastards off."

Wang Qian remained silent and focused on killing the enemy.

Their Battleship was a standard Battleship refined by the Artifact Refiners of the Logistics Department. Ninety-nine percent of the teams used this type of Battleship, each Battleship would consume a lot of resources to be refined.

In the early years, the Human Race had not prohibited their soldiers from using their battle merits to exchange for materials to transform their Battleships. Battle merits were earned with their own lives, so the higher-ups would not restrict their soldiers from using them. As such, many people liked to do this. If they wanted to do good work, they had to first use their tools, and if their Battleships were modified to become stronger, not only would they be able to preserve their lives on the battlefield, but they would also be able to kill enemies more effectively.

Back when Yang Kai led Dawn Squad in the Ink Battlefield, they had spent a massive amount of battle merits to modify the Breaking Dawn Battleship. It could be said that most of the battle merits Yang Kai had obtained had been invested into the Breaking Dawn, greatly enhancing its power and allowing Dawn Squad to survive the bloody battles like fish in water.

However, in recent years, the higher-ups had not allowed this to happen. It wasn't that the higher-ups didn't know the benefits of modifying a Battleship, but right now, the Human Race's resources were in short supply, and every single one of them had to be carefully calculated, so how could there be any extra materials for the soldiers to modify a Battleship?

Only some elite squads who had passed the application and obtained approval could use their battle merits to exchange for materials to transform their Battleships. Even so, the amount of battle merits they would need to use would be far greater than before.

At this moment, Zhao Li cursing to the people from the Logistics Department was a bit unreasonable. The Logistics Department was only carrying out the orders of the higher-ups, but everyone was currently in a difficult situation and could fall at any moment, so it was fine for him to vent his anger.

"Team Leader, the defensive formation is about to collapse," The team member shouted.

Wang Qian looked up and saw that the protective barrier surrounding the Battleship had become dim and was on the verge of collapse.

Taking a deep breath, Wang Qian shouted, "Prepare to fight to the death, Xiao Wu, activate the Battleship's self-destruct array in ten breaths!"

"Yes!" The Fifth Order Open Heaven who had been called out answered.

Even if he died, he had to kill more enemies!

Zhong Wu Yu, who was repairing the Tiger Roar, also stopped what he was doing. At this moment, there was no point in wasting any more time. Lifting his hand, he summoned his long sword and stepped over to Wang Qian's side, standing shoulder to shoulder with him as he stared at the dense crowd of Black Ink Clan cultivators with a determined look.

One by one, the team members summoned their artifacts and gathered around Wang Qian, their auras surging as they formed a battle formation.

Even in the face of an army of thousands, they will still pressed forward.

Fight to the end!

Suddenly, a disturbance broke out among the enemy forces, and in the next moment, the complexions of Wang Qian and the others changed slightly. In their perception, a large amount of vitality was suddenly extinguished, as if countless Black Ink Clan masters had died.

However, because there were too many Black Ink Clan cultivators on the periphery of the Battleship, they were unable to see what was happening outside.

Just as they were wondering what was happening, they suddenly saw a ripple appear in the void in front of them. Wherever this ripple passed, the void trembled and shattered, and a number of Void Cracks swam about like fish.

The countless Void Cracks had almost enveloped all of the Black Ink Clan's forces except for the area where their Battleship was.

In the next instant, the Black Ink Clan army that had forced them into a desperate situation, no matter how strong they were or where they were, all of them spewed out ink blood. Every Black Ink Clan soldier was cut into several pieces by the Void Crack, and many of them died before they even realized what had happened.

"This…" Wang Qian was dumbfounded.

Although they still didn't know what had happened, the only thing they could figure out was that a master from their side had stepped in and instantly wiped out the Black Ink Clan.

What kind of mighty force was this? He didn't even notice the fluctuations of energy, only a slight ripple spreading out and forming a Void Crack. All of the Black Ink Clan masters gathered around the Battleship were completely wiped out, including the few hidden Feudal Lords.

In the next moment, a figure suddenly appeared in the mountain of corpses and sea of blood, exchanging a glance with Wang Qian but not saying anything. After confirming that they were safe and sound, he simply nodded lightly before taking a step forward and disappearing.

"Xiao Wu!" Wang Qian suddenly came back to his senses and turned around, shouting, "Stop it!"

He had just given this team member the order to activate the self-destruction array in ten breaths, so he didn't know if it would be too late to stop him now.

Looking around, Wang Qian let out a sigh of relief. The team member called Xiao Wu seemed to have been scared silly by the scene just now and stood there in a daze.

"Team Leader, which Garrison Chief is this?" After a moment of silence, one of the team members suddenly asked.

"Garrison Chief?" Zhong Wu Yu turned his head to look at this person and lightly snorted, "Garrison Chief doesn't have such power."

In the blink of an eye, such a large number of Black Ink Clan masters had been wiped out, and even a Feudal Lord-level master had died without a sound. This was not something an Eighth Order Garrison Chief could accomplish.

Although an Eighth Order should be able to kill so many enemies, it was impossible for him to use such a simple method.

"Not an Eighth Order?" The person who spoke was stunned for a moment before asking, "Could it be…"

"It's that Sir Yang!" Zhao Li's eyes lit up. Although Yang Kai had only appeared for a moment, Zhao Li had still recognized him.

All this time, Zhao Li had regarded this Sir Yang as a goal he had been striving towards. Back then, when he had broken through to the Sixth Order, his limit is the Eighth Order and he had no chance of reaching the Ninth Order.

However, that Sir Yang had broken through to the Fifth Order back then, and now he had also broken through to the Ninth Order. This bizarre growth process had given many people like Zhao Li hope.

As such, Zhao Li had done a lot of research on Yang Kai and had even personally visited High Heaven Palace to admire his statue.

Zhao Li wasn't the only one who recognized Yang Kai. Wang Qian also recognized him, his heart filled with excitement as he muttered to himself, "Isn't this Lord trapped in the Universe Furnace?"

The matter of Yang Kai being trapped in the Universe Furnace wasn't a secret, anyone who paid attention to news about him knew about it. If he hadn't been trapped in the Universe Furnace, how could he have disappeared for hundreds of years?

So Wang Qian couldn't understand why Yang Kai would appear here.

Zhao Li chuckled and said, "To this Lord, even if he was trapped in the Universe Furnace, what does it matter? He naturally has a way to escape."

Zhong Wu Yu nodded from the side, "In this chaotic world, heroes emerge. Now that this Lord has returned, I'm afraid the Black Ink Clan will suffer greatly. No matter what, it was all thanks to him this time, otherwise we would have died."

Everyone nodded.

Zhao Li smiled, "Have you not thought about anything else?"

"Think about what?"

Zhao Li said, "Since this Lord has appeared here, it means our Chi Huo Army also has a Ninth Order master!"

Everyone suddenly understood!

All along, Chi Huo Army had hoped to have their own Ninth Order master like the other six army, but unfortunately, there were only so many Ninth Order master, so how could their wish come true?

Now that Yang Kai had appeared in the E-5 Domain, didn't this mean that Chi Huo Army would also have a Ninth Order master in charge of the army in the furutre? Is their long-cherished wish finally about to be fulfilled?

Everyone was overjoyed…

After a moment of excitement, Wang Qian quickly issued an order and the Battleship arced towards the direction of the garrison's main force.

At the same time, Yang Kai's figure flickered as he rapidly approached the vast battlefield.

After setting out from the Head Office Division, Yang Kai had rushed all the way here and arrived in the E-5 Domain in less than half a month. After advancing to the Ninth Order, Yang Kai's Space Principle had become more flexible, allowing him to travel a large distance in less than a month.

Encountering Wang Qian's team being surrounded on the way here was nothing more than a casual rescue. To him, this wasn't a big deal, but he didn't expect that after he appeared, Wang Qian's team would misunderstand.

As the intense battle approached, Yang Kai activated his Thunder Shadow's Natal Divine Ability and concealed his figure and aura.

After six hundred years of silence, not only did the Human Race think he was trapped in the Universe Furnace, but the Black Ink Clan also thought so. Mo Na Ye would never have imagined that he would suddenly appear here.

Since that was the case, he would use slaughter to celebrate his return!

MSN: IIRC, doesn't thunder shadow have another natal divine ability from the combined blood scripture and heaven devouring battle law?
