Chapter 214 Qinglian Sword Immortal

"Thousands of soldiers and horses avoid the white robe?"

Qin Jun's eyes lit up instantly and he flew towards the city wall, with Taibai Venus, Li Yuanba, Daji, Xiaoli, Li Bai, Hong Haier, Sha Wujing, and Fahai following closely behind. Qin Yun and the others naturally did not follow, so as not to lag behind, and Heibai Wuchang had already returned to the underworld.

Soon, the group arrived at the top of the city wall. The soldiers who were fiercely battling the beast tide did not notice their presence and mistook them for wandering cultivators coming to support them.

Qin Jun's gaze fell on a white torrent at the end of the group. Amidst the endless beast tide, the white torrent was so conspicuous. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a group of cavalry. They were dressed in silver armor, draped in white robes, riding sturdy warhorses, each wielding a long spear. Wherever they went, the demonic beasts were sent flying.

It was as if an unstoppable long spear was piercing through the beast tide.

The beast-taming cultivators riding on the backs of the demonic beasts were shocked and exclaimed, "What kind of army is that?"

"So powerful, they only have Foundation Establishment cultivation, yet they can move freely within the beast tide!"

"Their momentum is so strong, it's the first time I've seen a military force with such grandeur."

"The Southern Zhuo Dynasty doesn't have such a military force!"

The incoming army was none other than the White Robe Army, led by a sturdy young general, followed by two iron riders, then three more, forming a triangular formation as they charged into the beast tide, their momentum visibly overwhelming, as if a white aura enveloped the entire White Robe Army.

In the center of the White Robe Army was a wooden war chariot pulled by eight fierce horses. Standing on the war chariot was a middle-aged Confucian general in a white robe, none other than Chen Qingzhi, who shook the history of military affairs in China.

Defeating 30,000 troops with 7,000 men, although likely exaggerated, after being strengthened by the mythological system, the White Robe Army was more than a thousand times stronger than its historical counterpart.

Chen Qingzhi leaned on the hilt of his sword, gazing straight ahead, as if the endless beast tide was nothing in his eyes.

Wherever the White Robe Army went, they were invincible.

The beast-taming cultivators also began to unleash their spells on the White Robe Army, but the eerie white aura surrounding the White Robe Army repelled their attacks, which greatly lifted the spirits of the soldiers at the Bronze Gate.

They thought reinforcements had arrived.

"What's with that white aura?"

Qin Jun curiously asked in his mind. The performance of the White Robe Army indeed impressed him. The beast tide outside the Bronze Gate was mainly composed of second and third-tier demonic beasts, and even included fourth and fifth-tier beings, yet they couldn't stop the iron tread of the White Robe Army.

"Invincible Army Soul!"

The system explained, "The formation of an army soul is extremely rare. In mythological legends, the existence of legions is rare, so historical legions were summoned for reinforcement. The White Robe Army itself has a mythical quality, undefeated in a hundred battles, and has formed an invincible army soul. Unless a peak Void Transformation expert takes action, it's difficult to defeat them as long as the White Robe Army remains intact and the army soul persists."

Damn!

That's so cool!

Qin Jun was suddenly excited. It seemed that the summoning of mythological armies was no less impressive than the summoning of mythological beings!

"This army is extraordinary!"

Taibai Venus praised. Even Li Bai, Sha Wujing, Daji, Xiaoli, and Fahai were all amazed as they looked at the White Robe Army, while Li Yuanba and Hong Haier remained indifferent.

They only admired individual combat prowess.

Hearing the praise from everyone, Qin Jun's mood improved even more, after all, this White Robe Army belonged to him.

"Ah—"

At that moment, a mournful cry came from the sky. Qin Jun instinctively looked up and could only see two light clusters in the clouds colliding frantically, so fast that it was dizzying.

Sha Wujing murmured, "Xu Guiku is about to lose."

Qin Jun squinted and said, "Who's going up to help him and capture the opponent alive?"

On that day, in front of the Bronze Gate, Xu Guiku had helped him, and even offered to take them as disciples. Although it could only be considered a small favor, Qin Jun didn't want to ignore it.

At the same time, he was also very curious about the demonic forces.

Before he finished speaking, Li Yuanba and Hong Haier leaped into the air and flew towards the sky. This made Qin Jun shake his head and smile, then turned his gaze back to the White Robe Army.

At this moment, the White Robe Army was less than a kilometer away from the Bronze Gate, getting closer and closer.

"Roar—"

A fierce roar filled with hostility resounded, and a giant ape, ten meters tall, leaped from the beast tide. It was a fifth-tier demonic beast, a Void Transformation Demon King!

After reaching the fifth tier, demonic beasts could transform, but not all Demon Kings were willing to do so. Transformation would limit their strength, and only those Demon Kings who wanted to infiltrate the human territory would do so.

The giant ape smashed towards the White Robe Army like a cannonball, and its fists, as large as water barrels, carried an immense force as they struck the invincible army soul of the White Robe Army, causing the army soul to deform and appear on the verge of shattering. However, the giant ape was ultimately repelled.

"General, a fifth-tier demonic beast is attacking ahead. What should we do?"

On the war chariot, a young general beside Chen Qingzhi asked nervously, but there was no panic, because Chen Qingzhi remained calm.

In the hearts of the soldiers of the White Robe Army, Chen Qingzhi was a war god. If he remained calm, they would surely win.

"Continue forward!"

Chen Qingzhi stared straight ahead and said in a deep voice. His gaze was unexpectedly fixed on Qin Jun and the others on the Bronze Gate.

Naturally, Qin Jun wouldn't let the White Robe Army suffer a setback right after their appearance. He immediately shouted, "Li Bai, go help the army below!"

Li Bai was taken aback, and although he was puzzled, he didn't ask any questions. Instead, he flew directly towards the White Robe Army.

Unconsciously, Qin Jun had already cultivated the majesty befitting an emperor. Especially after the appearance of Hong Haier, Li Bai and the others had developed an inherent awe in their hearts. After all, even the experts far surpassing them had already paid homage to Qin Jun. What qualifications did they have to act arrogantly?

If they didn't work hard, they would be eliminated by Qin Jun!

The giant ape roared and charged towards the soldiers in white robes once again. At that moment, a swooshing sound was heard, and with a thud, the divine sword pierced through the giant ape's throat, splattering blood across the sky. The soldiers in white robes were momentarily stunned, and their gaze fell upon the figure behind the giant ape, who appeared like a celestial being – it was Li Bai.

Clad in white like an exiled immortal, Li Bai was handsome and dashing, his sword sealing the giant ape's throat, showcasing his charm to the fullest.

Killing a virtual realm beast with the power of an earthly immortal was indeed effortless, especially with a surprise attack.

With a swift motion of his right hand, Li Bai abruptly changed the direction of the divine sword, which flew back at an increased speed, its myriad of sword shadows surrounding the giant ape. In the blink of an eye, the giant ape was torn into pieces, with no chance of survival.

This scene caused the soldiers in white robes and the soldiers at the bronze gate to gasp in astonishment.

Truly worthy of being called the Sword Immortal of the Qinglian!

Qin Jun sighed inwardly. Due to the presence of figures like the Venus of the White Marsh, Li Yuanba, Sha Wujing, and the Red Boy, Li Bai's brilliance had always been overshadowed. However, his current performance was truly stunning, even bringing a look of contentment to the face of the Venus of the White Marsh.

"Is that a strong warrior under His Highness?" Chen Qingzhi furrowed his brow, as he had heard earlier about the numerous powerful individuals under Qin Jun's command. Now, witnessing Li Bai's prowess, his admiration for Qin Jun deepened.

A lord like this was truly worth following for Chen Qingzhi!
