Chapter 1057: Military Division

Thump! Thump!

Solemn drumbeats resounded throughout the Holy Mountain .

“It’s the war drum! Ninety-nine strikes!”

Mo He, who was training on the military drill ground, gently caressed his curved saber . “Other than starting a war with the outside cultivators, there’s no other reason to use the ‘Brutal Blood Drum’ . ”

“Why are we starting a war with the outside cultivators? Just for ownership of the Hundred Thousand Mountains?” Fang Yuan was slightly puzzled .

Cultivators were not like secular dynasties, so they did not value things like territory .

As for precious mineral resources, rare medicinal herbs, and other items like Fey beast materials, obtaining them through traveling merchants or spies would be more cost-effective .

So why start a war? In his eyes, it was a business that was bound to lose money .

“Regarding the specific reasons, Master only has his guesses . But you must know that our Hundred Thousand Mountains is extremely extraordinary!” Mo He replied solemnly .

“That’s true… After all, it’s the land that nurtured us barbarians . ” Fang Yuan nodded .

At least, he knew that there was nothing like totems among the outside cultivators .

Evidently, the lineage of the barbarians of the Hundred Thousand Mountains was very special .

“Not this…” Mo He lowered his voice . “In the outside world, spiritual energy is much denser, and the heavenly materials and earthly treasures from treasured lands are countless . In fact, even the comprehension of those humans surpasses us barbarians . But after transcending tribulation and becoming Immortal, the combat power between the two sides isn’t too different . ”

Before crossing the tribulation, barbarians would hold the advantage in solo fights with the help of their totem materializations . But after the tribulation, the human Immortals would faintly have the upper hand .

“In that case, it is indeed extraordinary!” Fang Yuan nodded . “What is Master’s guess?”

“Master believes that perhaps the changes here are related to the Demonic Tribulations…” Mo He said . “I’ve interacted with some outside cultivators in the past, so I know that their cultivation does not only include their mental demons and heavenly tribulations but the attacks of foreign demons as well!”

“Foreign demons?” Fang Yuan was startled .

“That’s right! Otherworldly demons!” Mo He continued . “They are innately evil demons whose nature is to slaughter . Their growth is extremely rapid . In the outside world, it appears that there’s always a possibility of otherworldly demons arriving during their tribulations . A demon like this is easy to kill when it’s alone, but it seems that after every thousand or ten thousand years, there will always be a time when a large influx of otherworldly demons comes at the same time . To the cultivation world, it is a terrifying calamity!”

“Why are there no records of this?” Fang Yuan was quite doubtful .

“Because… in the history of our Hundred Thousand Mountains, there have never been otherworldly demons arriving . Even if there’s a demon calamity in the outside world, it rarely affects us!” Mo He took a deep breath .

“That extraordinary?” Fang Yuan’s eyes widened . “The entire world is affected by the otherworldly demons except for the Hundred Thousand Mountains?”

“That’s right! Even though our Barbarian Ancestral Court is powerful, being able to preserve the Hundred Thousand Mountains is truly rare . ” Mo He sighed .

“To all barbarian disciples… today, there are Immortals from the outside world who want to kill our compatriots and snatch our territory . We shall never allow this to happen!

“In our Barbarian Ancestral Court, the Immortal Patriarchs have come to a consensus and hereby order: First, all tribes shall cease wars with each other and unanimously fight the foreign invaders! Second, all Apotheosis realm cultivators shall head to the peak of the Holy Mountain for an important meeting! Third, we shall establish nine major military divisions in preparation for war!”

A resounding voice spread across the entire Holy Mountain and the Barbarian Palace .

When Fang Yuan heard it, he immediately knew that it was Immortal Brutal Child .

“Master will go there now . Take care of yourself!”

Mo He looked meaningfully into Fang Yuan’s eyes before turning into a saber light and rushing toward the top of the Holy Mountain .

“Looks like the Apotheosis realm cultivators are merely heading there to accept and fulfill tasks given to them . The true leaders of the barbarians are still those few Immortal Patriarchs!”

Fang Yuan furrowed his brows . “Is the Hundred Thousand Mountains actually that extraordinary? A hidden land of peace and prosperity despite the attacks from the otherworldly demons? It appears that I’ve severely underestimated the strength of the barbarian Immortals . ”

To be able to guard the Hundred Thousand Mountains under such tremendous pressure, there was undoubtedly an unknown hidden trump card within the Barbarian Ancestral Court .

At the very least, their strength would certainly be very powerful .

“I wonder where these otherworldly demons come from… Outside this world? From the midst of chaos?”

This series of matters made Fang Yuan rub his chin as his eyes lit up .

The orders from the Barbarian Ancestral Court were no different from an oracle, especially within the Hundred Thousand Mountains .

The orders were above everything else . Even the greatest of life-and-death enemies stopped fighting temporarily to serve the envoys of the Holy Mountain .

Soon, nine military divisions with over ten thousand people each were successfully established and grandiosely set off for the battlefield .

Within the Star Spear tribe, one of the nine military divisions .

Fang Yuan rode on a war beast, looked at the majestic army, and nodded silently . “Everyone in the armies is a cultivator, with the lowest being at the Predatory realm and having a totem!

“Here, those at the Predatory realm are only the most basic warriors . Materialization cultivators are ten-man squad leaders, Primordial Core experts are the hundred and thousand-man commanders, and Apotheosis powerhouses are the highest army commanders! Who knows if there are any Immortals hidden within them!”

Fang Yuan hated a war between cultivators like this one .

Wouldn’t it be good if they could simply allow him to cultivate to the point where he could protect himself?

How did a single disagreement result in a war between both sides?

In a war of such a scale between cultivators, even Apotheosis cultivators could perish!

Even Immortals could not guarantee their own safety!

It would be reasonable if it were for a peerless treasure or some dao foundation, but for any other reason, he truly felt too innocent to be dragged into it .

But at this time, there was nothing he could do unless he chose to betray the Holy Mountain and become hunted down as an army deserter .

“If I desert now, the cost would be simply too great . Not only would I become a sworn enemy of the barbarians, but the outside cultivators definitely wouldn’t accept me either . If that really happened, I would truly be going against the entire world . Currently, my cultivation level is too low… Fortunately, there’s still hope for me in this war if I just want to protect myself . ”

Fang Yuan’s greatest advantage was that he appeared to be only at the Materialization realm! His actual strength had already reached the Apotheosis realm, but nobody knew yet .

As such, unless those above ordered him to die, ordinary military missions should not pose much trouble to him at all .

If he were really sent on missions that he knew he would die on, Fang Yuan would certainly not be reluctant to leave, and he would immediately make use of the Pantheon Palace to depart .

Even if this meant that his future path would be tougher, it was still better than throwing his life away .

A bloodline warrior ran over and shouted, “Hundred-man Commander, we are about to reach the Death Plains! We have orders from above saying that the enemies in the plains will be the responsibility of three major military divisions, Star Spear, Star Scar, and Star Splendor! Military divisions Bright Moon and Scorching Sun will support them!”

“All right!”

These three major military divisions with the word ‘Star’ in their names were assembled from the tribes subordinate to the Beichen tribe, and they were specifically responsible for fighting on the Death Plains .

As for the four major military divisions from the other two major tribes, they were stationed at the Agonizing Eagle Gorge and the Golden River .

“It seems… the Death Plains will be the main battlefield this time! To think that five armies have been mobilized here!”

Fang Yuan shook his head .

This was no ordinary mortal army but fifty thousand cultivators! The essence of the barbarians was basically all in one place .

“Greetings, Commander!”

When the army arrived at the plains, they set up camp . Fang Yuan followed a hundred-man commander and a thousand-man commander to meet his army commander at the main tent .

On the main seat, a barbarian wearing a horned helmet shouted, “The outside cultivators are invading our Hundred Thousand Mountains once again! This act of bullying is intolerable! However, we have the geographical advantage and the Immortal Patriarchs . Brothers, we must work even harder to retain the majority of them here . ”

“Understood!” Fang Yuan followed the crowd and shouted .

The corner of his eye kept sizing this Apotheosis realm army commander up .

Hmm… this person should be Brutal Witch, with the second-grade totem golden lion king! He was famous a long time ago for leading many successful campaigns . He is a rare and talented army commander!

The barbarian Immortals were not fools and would naturally not select army commanders based solely on cultivation levels .

They would definitely select those truly outstanding army commanders with a minimum cultivation at the Apotheosis realm .

As for those who only knew how to cultivate? They were instead more suitable as personal guards .

“Now, I will begin arranging patrols . Each of you will have your respective areas to patrol, and my guards will kill any undisciplined people! No exception!” Brutal Witch said solemnly . He waved his hand, and a few Apotheosis realm powerhouses stepped out from all four corners .

“We wouldn’t dare!”

Fang Yuan and the other Primordial Core small fries would naturally not dare to disobey Brutal Witch’s orders .

I have to admit, the way Brutal Witch sets up his army is indeed pretty decent . He can be considered a pretty good army commander…

After walking out of the main tent, Fang Yuan walked back to his camp .

As an honorable hundred-man commander, he had a hundred cultivators under his command .

Of course, ten-man squad leaders were generally at the Materialization realm . However, he was a core disciple of the Holy Mountain and received treatment like someone at the Primordial Core realm .

“Those at the Materialization realm from the small tribes can only be ten-man squad leaders, while the powerful core disciples of the Holy Mountain can be thousand-man commanders…”

Fang Yuan walked into the camp and said, “I am your hundred-man commander! Quickly come out to greet me . ”

Earlier, when Brutal Witch was deploying the army, he also assigned troops to the various hundred-man and thousand-man commanders . Fang Yuan was assigned the people of this camp .

Swoosh!

Numerous barbarians appeared . Each one of them was tall and mighty, with a saber or hammer in their hands, looking extremely ferocious .

In particular, some of the ten-man squad leaders looked at Fang Yuan with a slightly peculiar expression .

“Eh?” Fang Yuan looked across the crowd and saw an acquaintance . “Brutal Thunder?”

“Fang Yuan, I didn’t expect you to become a core disciple of the Holy Mountain!” The Flybarb tribe’s Brutal Thunder walked out with a shocked expression . “And you’re actually a hundred-man commander!”

“I wonder if everyone else in the tribe is doing well?” Fang Yuan could not help but smile at the situation .

“They’re fine! Most of the bloodline warriors have come out because of the Holy Mountain’s conscription!” Brutal Thunder sighed . “But I don’t know how many can make it back alive…”
