Chapter 1061: Steel Cavalry

Translator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma Translations

The members of this cavalry unit, horses included, were encompassed in a layer of thick and heavy silver armor. They flashed with a piercing glow under the sunlight, appearing like many moving metallic monsters.

However, when Ning Baichuan—who was on top of the city walls— saw this cavalry unit, he immediately became very agitated. “Bing Region’s Steel Cavalry! The Steel Cavalry is here!”

Bing Region’s Steel Cavalry consisted of the elite soldiers trained by Bing Region’s Li Clan. They had the reputation of being the best cavalry in the world.

The Li Clan was a clan left behind by one of the four great generals who founded the country. Their duke aristocracy had been passed down through the generations, and even the Emperor could not remove them from the position.

The Great Jin Dynasty’s feudal vassals had great authorities and vast conferred lands. Their system was one which was similar to an enfeoffment system, which even the Emperor would not be able to expropriate easily. This was a hidden problem left behind from the period the country was founded, and it was also one of the reasons why the current world had entered such chaos.

A clan like the Bing Region’s Li Clan that had earned great merit in the founding of the country would even be able to possess their own army. The Steel Cavalry was what their clan was known for.

Each member of the Steel Cavalry underwent training with horses starting from a young age and consumed a large amount of meat for every meal. They cultivated internal techniques starting from when they were young, and even the horses had to cultivate internal techniques.

Each of them ate, lived, and trained together with their rides.

Their horses were also a well-known breed that the Bing Region’s Li Clan took special efforts to nurture—Riding Clouds Chasing Lightning. They were a famed breed that far surpassed ordinary horses in terms of built, lifespan, strength, and endurance. They could even cultivate internal techniques together with their owners, thereby possessing essential Qi.

After people and horses who cultivated like this grew up, there would no longer be any distinction between them, and even their essential Qi would be able to connect together as one, forming a Qi field.

Moreover, they were equipped with Illuminating Darkness Armor that weighed over 1,000 kilograms and was almost impenetrable by blades and spears and uninvadable by fire and water. Each member of the Steel Cavalry was an existence that could hold up against ten people single-handedly.

When these metal mounds gathered together and charged out, the horse power, human power, steel, and essential Qis would be connected together. It would have an impact of several million tons of power. It was truly surging rush of steel, and they would not care even if they were up against several an army of several ten thousand men.

This could be seen from the unbridled gleam in their eyes.

Every member of the Steel Cavalry raised their head arrogantly, and the confidence in their eyes was so intense that it seemed to be material. The 100,000-man army from the imperial court did not bother them at all.

They had the right to be proud. It was because ever since the Steel Cavalry was introduced to the world, they had not lost to anyone in a head-on battle.

Moreover, there were 5,000 of them now

At the very front of the Steel Cavalry, a man whose upper body was bare sat on top of a huge beast. It was called a huge beast because the ‘horse’ the man rode was over five meters in height, had a curvy horn on its head, and had very red eyes. The beast’s muscles released explosive powers, and each step it took out seemed like it could cause the ground to tremor.

This was the king of all horses that the Li Clan had nurtured—Jade Water Kirin.

The person seated on the Jade Water Kirin was the Li Clan’s young master—Li Anguo.

Although his upper body was bare, his muscles gleamed with a glow like that of metal. He had trained the Li Clan’s Indestructible Golden Physique to an extreme, and every inch of his body had the greatest level of toughness, strength, and tenacity.

The 70 acupuncture points in his body were like 70 black holes, incessantly absorbing the Disha Qis from the earth. His Jade Water Kirin also had eight spots in its body that kept on palpitating like huge hearts. With each palpitation, waves of Disha Qis would gush up from the depths of the earth and enter its body.

Both human and beast had clearly attained the Disha Realm, and with their essential Qis connected into one, they had an unprecedented total of 78 acupuncture points cleared.

Li Anguo swung the mystic iron longspear in his hands that weighed several thousand jins and threw a disdainful gaze at the 100,000-man army from the imperial court in the distance.

Not long after the Steel Cavalry arrived, several ten thousand forces proceeded slowly from the west side of the plains as well. They were donned in armor, wielded weapons, and had on solemn expressions. Their faces presented a feeling of sacredness.

From the east, streams of essential Qis soared into the sky as 200 Disha Realm cultivators appeared.

Ning Baichuan, who was on the city wall, was pleasantly surprised. “It’s not just the Steel Cavalry, even the Yellow Sect ¹ ‘s Apologist Army is here. There are also the experts from the Twelve Alliance...”

The Yellow Sect was the top religious sect in the Western Region. Their sect master, Huang Tianhu, had attained the Tiangang Realm and had several millions of followers scattered across several regions in Middle-earth. After the Great Jin Dynasty lost control over its territories, the Yellow Sect took the chance to rise up, taking over many territories in Western Region and becoming one of the feudal vassals.

The several ten thousand forces that came from the west were from the Yellow Sect. Not only were they all Xiantian Realm experts, but they also held a fervent belief in the sect’s creed. Once they started to battle, they could be said to have an endless fighting spirit and were even unafraid of death.

The 200 Disha Realm cultivators that came from the other side were from the Twelve Alliance—a huge influence that was formed from the alliance of 12 black triads. Their leader, Ye Kuang, was the number one blade user in the southwest. This influence was the weakest amongst all who came, but as they were an influence from the pugilistic world, it was said that they had 500 or more Disha Realm cultivators, having taken over 12 cities, and were one of the feudal vassals as well.

The arrival of the Steel Cavalry seemed like a signal as groups of armies and experts appeared on the plains outside Lihe City. Within a short period of time, eight armies arrived, with a total of close to 200,000 soldiers. There were other elites, who were like the Steel Cavalry, and smaller groups formed by experts like the Twelve Alliance.

Other than some feudal vassals who were situated too far away, the remaining feudal vassals had all sent out their elite forces. Clearly, other than the pressure from the imperial court, the members of the Three Mountains Four Peaks were also pushing things from behind the scenes.

Hints of spatial cracks shattered in the sky, and Xiao Shen put out his head and looked at the battlefield on the ground.

‘If Fang Xuan or Marie were the ones to make a move, there wouldn’t be a need for 100,000 men.’

Recalling the two heaven-blessed cultivators that Marie had killed previously, Xiao Shen thought to himself, ‘Are they thinking of luring us out?

‘If that’s the case, then all the more we shouldn’t appear. We’ll let these feudal vassals test out Fang Xuan’s intentions first,’ he thought as his gaze scanned the imperial court’s army. ‘If the imperial court is just relying on their army, then they definitely will not be a match for the feudal vassals’ alliance. Moreover, with the feudal vassals holding them back, I might have a chance to launch a sneak attack at Marie. At the very least, I’ll be able to slow down the progression of the imperial court’s army and fight for more time for the others.’

Fang Xuan was now the greatest enemy for the Three Mountains Four Peaks, and his strongest subordinate, Marie, was also a great threat in the hearts of Xiao Shen and the others.

Therefore, they are putting all of their hopes onto the heaven-blessed cultivators.

However, Xiao Shen had no idea why when Marie’s unrivaled beauty appeared in his mind. Thinking of how she was Fang Xuan’s subordinate and that the Three Mountains Four Peaks’ scouts kept on sending news that she was able to enter and leave the palace freely, he felt a grasping feeling in his heart.

The scene of Marie being pressed under Fang Xuan and receiving his grace in ecstasy suddenly appeared in his mind.

A female general with an unrivaled beauty who often entered and left the palace... Xiao Shen could not help but think of these. Hints of killing intent flashed in his eyes.

‘Fang Xuan...’
