Chapter 280: Chapter 121 Monster Martial Pill Success! Monster Smoke Rises to the Sky!_1

“Yes!”

A large number of soldiers responded; they flipped down from their horsebacks. In fact, in a war where they were outnumbered, fighting on horseback was not convenient. Being on foot allowed them to encircle and unleash their full strength!

“Hmm?”

Su Changkong’s face showed a hint of surprise.

These Dafeng Iron Cavalry soldiers quickly formed into formation, ten per group, a hundred per unit. Their breath seemed to interconnect, and among them, Qi-Blood Realm Martial Artists exploded with Qi and blood, creating a chain reaction that caused the soldiers in the same unit to boil with Qi and Blood, their auras soaring!

“Is this the battle formation of the Dafeng Iron Cavalry?”

Su Changkong probably understood something.

The Dafeng Iron Cavalry was the elite force of Dafeng State City, filled with outstanding warriors. One of the major reasons for the Dafeng Iron Cavalry’s fearsome combat power was their regular practice of military formations.

In these formations, with one hundred men per unit and one or two Qi-Blood Realm warriors among each hundred, they could detonate Qi and blood to drive the rest, even those who hadn’t reached the Qi-Blood Realm. Linked by the formation’s aura, their martial prowess could greatly increase. Many Body Refinement Great Achievement Martial Artists could even burst forth with strength not much weaker than a typical Qi-Blood Realm warrior!

Against the onslaught of the Dafeng Iron Cavalry, the average Qi-Blood Realm warrior would be torn to shreds in the blink of an eye!

“Come on!”

Su Changkong’s gaze was intense; he wanted to see just how capable this so-called Dafeng Iron Cavalry was.

“Boom, boom, boom!”

The heavy footsteps thundered, and all around Su Changkong were the black-armored soldiers closing in. Their breath interlinked, and the black armor took on a faint dark red hue as the Qi and Blood surged, forming a continuous front that draped a blood-colored mist over their heads.

These black-armored soldiers in the front held thick shields to form a shield wall, pressing forward and leaving no space for their target to move. Those in the back wielded long spears, stabbing through gaps in the shields—offense and defense as one! Even enemies stronger than them would have a hard time dealing with this assault.

Pei Chen’s orders were to capture alive, so these soldiers did not strike to kill, aiming not for Su Changkong’s vital areas.

Facing the thrust of spear after spear, Su Changkong unfolded the agility of Deer Play, turning and leaping like a Spirit Deer. The dense spears could only hit his afterimages, not even grazing his sleeve.

Five Animal Frolics. Colliding Mountain Bear!

While dodging the attacks, Su Changkong’s momentum changed, his fists driven by heart, and the roar of an enraged bear echoed through the air. He lurched forward like a Colliding Mountain Bear, ready to shatter mountains.

“Thump!”

In the dull thud, several thick metal shields dented from the impact. The shield-bearers, despite the enhancement of the formation, were uncontrollably thrown backward and flipped over, many suffering from broken hands and ribs.

But it was only a matter of breaths before more black-armored soldiers filled the gap, continuing to surround Su Changkong.

“Kill!”

A great number of black-armored soldiers formed layers of shield walls, enclosing Su Changkong, continuously pressing and never giving him a moment to breathe, blades and spears striking in unison.

In an incredibly tight space, even a Martial Arts master would find it difficult to perform, and after all, a Martial Artist is flesh and blood, vulnerable to injury and bleeding!

These black-armored soldiers were confident that Su Changkong, even if he was a Qi-Blood Long Dragon realm expert, would not be able to hold out for long in front of them!

“Bang, bang, bang!”

What was shocking, though, was how adept Su Changkong was at dodging the blades and spears in such a confined space. His fists charged with power, and he sent the encircling soldiers flying backward in clusters. For a moment, they were unable to take him down!

“Indeed, the Dafeng Iron Cavalry is elite! Continuously fighting like this, I wouldn’t possibly defeat thousands of soldiers alone. My strength will be exhausted!”

Su Changkong inwardly admired them; the Dafeng Iron Cavalry was not like those untrained mobs. Even if he went on a killing spree, they would fight to the death without retreating.

Employing Turtle Breathing Qi Armor would protect against blade and spear strikes, but continuous attacks would also deplete True Qi rapidly. The indomitable onslaught of these soldiers would definitely become unbearable before long.

When the Ferocious Wolf Clan invaded ten years ago, it was the Dafeng Iron Cavalry that repelled them, with casualties on both sides exceeding a hundred thousand! Not one of the Dafeng Iron Cavalry soldiers backed down!

“I shouldn’t get entangled with them; catch the king to capture his men!”

Su Changkong was aware of this; he needed to capture Pei Chen, which would allow him to easily break out of the encirclement of thousands of knights.

Su Changkong gathered his True Qi and leapt high.

“He’s trying to get away from above! Spread out!”

Among the soldiers, Centurions and Chiliarchs swiftly issued commands, and a tide of soldiers dispersed in all directions. This expanded their encirclement, making escape much more difficult.

Moreover, all the soldiers raised their weapons high, thrusting up towards the sky. Anyone trying to go over their heads would be skewered like a porcupine by this forest of blades and spears!

“Swoosh!”

To everyone’s amazement, Su Changkong’s body was so light it seemed as though he were a flying bird. The True Qi in his Dantian circulated, truly making him as light as a swallow. He used the spear points and blade edges as footholds to leap out, covering several meters in the air, skimming over the forest of blades and spears!

Su Changkong’s Five Animal Frolics was a Health-preserving Fist, but after integrating the essence of Form-Intention Fist, he had mastered it to an Unparalleled in the World level of perfection. Whether in close combat or agility, he surpassed ordinary imagination, and among them, the ‘bird’ frolic could match any Qinggong master.
