My Cultivation Starting from Archery

This power!

Even though he couldn't even spread it to the periphery of the weapons, why was a single strike more powerful than his?

Impossible, this can't be possible!

In a state of panic, Xu Kai reached out, trying to grab the Mo Blade hanging in midair.

"Clang!"

A desperate, crisp clanging resounded.

The Mo Blade was once again flicked away by the long spear, spinning through the air for several tens of steps before landing and killing one of his own men.

"Puchi—"

Before Xu Kai could comprehend what was happening, a golden light pierced through his chest, pulverizing his bones and heart together, causing him to tumble stiffly from his horse, dying with his eyes wide open.

Storage!

Chen Sansi had been preparing from the beginning; it seemed that after storing energy, any of his attacks could surpass those of an ordinary Hua Jin-"Perfection" Martial Artist, as long as he seized the right opportunity for a fatal strike.

Of course, should it not succeed at first, he could simply try again, albeit it would waste a lot of time.

Elsewhere.

At the cost of severe injuries, Yu Song crossed the border and killed the enemy's Main General.

With the Main General, Deputy General, and the heads of mid-level generals fiercely cut off by Lu Shuhua and others, the rebel army lost its backbone instantly, breaking down as haphazardly as startled beasts scattering in all directions.

"Hua Jin-'Perfection'..."

Yu Song lay draped over his horse's back, struggling to sit up multiple times and spitting out blood several times before he recovered slightly.

Warring across borders was certainly no easy task.

However, when he saw the head of the Deputy General hanging from the long spear, he received a heavy blow.

Was Hua Jin-'Perfection' so easily defeated?

Not only was the opponent faster than him, but he hadn't sustained a single injury, killing enemies across two realms without harm!

Hua Jin and Refining Internal were the same.

Once one achieved Great Success, not to mention compared to entry-level or proficiency, even the gap between small achievement was like a chasm.

Forget it.

There's nothing to be shocked about.

This young man had been the same back when he was a Selected Point.

The difficulty of winning against a genius like Cao Fan across borders back then must have been greater than the current situation.

Lu Shuhua, Xie Sishu, and others also witnessed this scenario.

Just before leaving Liangzhou, everyone was still at Refining Internal Organs Perfection.

How could this young man already be killing those at Hua Jin-'Perfection'? If he moved on to the next step, would he not be ready to kill those who had reached Meridian Passage?!

"Don't get tied up in battle!"

Chen Sansi proceeded to inform everyone, "Hurry up and move on, head to Golden Spring Manor for supplies! Quick!"

As the battle didn't last long and the enemy army dispersed too quickly, they suffered only about two hundred casualties. Moreover, their formation hadn't even become disordered; they didn't even need to stop for regrouping and headed straight for Golden Spring Manor.

"Sir." Stay updated through My Virtual Library Empire

Zhao Kang rode up close and said, "How come Old Xu and Mr. Bai haven't returned yet?"

"They should be back shortly, you go ahead."

Chen Sansi walked twenty li toward the east and indeed encountered Xu Wencai and Bai Thingzhi returning. Unexpectedly, they had suffered losses, but those losses were not heavy. Out of over nine hundred feign attackers, more than eight hundred returned.

"You lazy lout, you really did it!"

Zhu Tong changed his attitude from before and said, "The mindless fools at Luotian Pass got completely played by us."

Xu Wencai, with no trace of pride on his face, staggered off his horse and bowed, saying, "Sir, the forces chasing from behind will likely catch up in about ten days."

"Not just that."

Chen Sansi pointed toward the south with his long spear and said, "Meishan Prefecture will most likely send people across the river too, and they should arrive within seven days. Let's head to Golden Spring Manor first, the brothers are too tired and need a bit of rest."

...

Yangchun Prefecture.

"The south city wall has collapsed! Quickly send people to repair it!"

"Arrows! We're running out of arrows!"

"Hurry up!"

"What about the rolling stones and logs?"

"Gone!"

"If there's none left, then go dismantle the houses of the civilians. Tear down every house in the city, even if it's to forcefully drag a dog from a family home to help on the city walls!"

"General!"

"With no food to give them and Dong An spreading a plethora of guarantee letters outside the city, which promise that no civilian will be harmed after entering the city and even offering them a tax exemption, they... they are unwilling to come up and help!"

"If they're unwilling, then kill until they are willing!"

General Sha's broadsword was notched from use, and his armor had shifted from mystical iron to ordinary arms, and even he sat down wearily, grabbing a piece of horse meat and stuffing it into his mouth.

The city's supplies were running low.

They had started to slaughter warhorses in small amounts to sustain themselves.

Their military strength was also diminishing.

When they first entered the city, there were eighteen thousand men, but now only about ten thousand remained.

"General Sha."

Cao Fan came over and asked, "How's it going?"

General Sha answered, "Not promising. The Yan State Army is about to engage with the West Qi Kingdom's large army in the south, but it's estimated that it'll still take a month to enter Ming State. Mobilizing reinforcements from there will take even longer. General Lu has also arrived; he's planning to launch a vigorous attack through the Sword Gate Canyon."

"Sword Gate Canyon, the most difficult route to attack Ming State,"

Cao Fan commented with a sigh, "He truly is a peerless brave man."

Each Main General in the Eight Camps had their unique traits.

General Lu's special trait was being fierce and invincible.

A saying circulated in the world, calling his courage 'peerless throughout the ages.'

But no matter how brave, it would still take time to break through, as for the Imperial Army coming from the Great Wilderness, they would definitely be the last to arrive, no need to even think about it.

For them, time was life, but they could only continue to hold on and see.

"What about Chen Sansi and his men?"

"No news."

General Sha sneered, "Most likely, they're already dead on the East Bank."

"Good if they're dead. It would save everyone a lot of trouble."
