Transmigrating over ten thousand years late, I was forced to become a mighty presence

Chapter 125: Chapter 50: War is About to Begin 1

Just as Shen Yuan had suspected, the fall of the Black Wind Mountain God had already secretly triggered a massive earthquake.

The remaining thirty-one Mountain Gods of the Yunfu Mountain Range felt something ground-shaking at the moment of the Black Wind Mountain God’s fall.

Seeing the sudden dissolution of the power of the incense fire gathered at Black Wind Mountain, a storm of shock and awe surged through the hearts of all monster tribe members.

The dispersion of the incense fire’s power suggested that the Mountain God had fallen, leaving the Mountain God Seal without an owner and thus unable to maintain the power of the incense fire.

It should be noted that those Monster Tribe members who served as Mountain Gods of the Yunfu Mountain Range were all among the finest in numerous provinces, and their cultivation had at least reached the peak of the Qi Transformation Stage.

With the mountains as their home turf, they would have a chance to escape even when facing a strong Qi Training Stage adversary.

Besides, the Yunfu Mountain Range was the territory designated for the monster tribe by Great Xia. Even if a powerful Qi Training Stage monster tribe member from outside came, it wouldn’t choose to provoke a Mountain God.

All this information indicated that the Black Wind Mountain God was likely killed by a powerful human intruder who had entered the Yunfu Mountain Range.

This was, since the Spirit Energy Tidal Surge, the first time a monster tribe member of such high status in the Yunfu Mountain Range had fallen, thus causing an undoubtedly sensational impact.

On the highest Yunfu Mountain of the Yunfu Mountain Range, an authoritative voice resonated throughout the land, causing the entire Yunfu Mountain Range, which encompassed an area of thousands of miles, to subtly tremble.

“The Black Wind Mountain God fell on the outskirts of the Yunfu Mountain Range, surely a work of human meddling, that murdered our Monster Tribe’s Mountain God.

All you Monsters, lead your armies to the border immediately to demand justice from the humans!”

The Yunfu Mountain Lord, a ruler respected by all monster tribe members within the territory of the Yunfu Mountain Range.

Even the Demon Kings hiding in the blessed lands of the Yunfu Mountain Range would have to lower their proud heads in front of the Yunfu Mountain Lord.

As the Yunfu Mountain Lord spoke, it naturally incited the entire Yunfu Mountain Range to tremble, with ten thousand monsters making mournful cries. The surging Monster Qi filled the Yunfu Mountain Range, transforming into a giant dark cloud that covered an area of thousands of miles.

Inside the Yunfu Mountain Range, the eyes of the thirty-one Mountain Gods, second only to the Mountain Lord, were glittering, revealing mixed feelings of joy and sorrow.

As the upper echelons of the Yunfu Mountain Range, they had heard rumors of the Yunfu Mountain Lord’s dissatisfaction with the current scope of the Yunfu Mountain Range’s territory, and he had been tirelessly seeking opportunities to expand his territory.

The expansion of the territory of the Yunfu Mountain Range was undoubtedly a good thing – who wouldn’t want their territory to become stronger? However, the Imperial Court of Great Xia maintained an unyieldingly tough attitude, and the Yunfu Mountain Lord’s attempts to negotiate with them were repeatedly rejected.

Previous agreement to set up Yunfu Street was just a move by the Yunfu Mountain Lord to join forces with the Hidden Sect in applying pressure to Great Xia, forcing them to surrender part of their border territory.

But when the contract for the market was revised, the Hidden Sect immediately reneged on their commitments.

Although verbally they agreed to offer help, when the Yunfu Mountain Lord started to apply pressure, those sects stated they would be willing to provide all kinds of support except actual help.

The Yunfu Mountain Lord was furious, but the sects that established the market were powerful, including Mount Laojun which had a lineage lasting thousands of years and was considered one of the leading figures in the Daoist community. Even if the Yunfu Mountain Lord confronted them directly, there was little he could do.

The Yunfu Mountain Lord had to swallow his anger reluctantly.

Now that the Black Wind Mountain God had fallen at the border, it was undoubtedly a great opportunity to strike.

Among the Mountain Gods, those eager for battles naturally looked forward to this, and started to rally their Monster Troops to march towards the border as soon as the Yunfu Mountain Lord gave the order.

Not all Mountain Gods wished for this conflict to happen, particularly those situated around the border.

Being the Mountain Gods of the monster tribe who were closest to modern society, they were well aware that the cultivators in Yun Province were far less powerful than the monster tribe in the Yunfu Mountain Range, but Great Xia had a large number of cannons.

Under the wide-ranging artillery fire, other Essence Refining, Qi Transformation monsters could hardly survive, and even the Mountain Gods could only protect themselves by relying on the Mountain God Seal.

Once the battle started, it would inevitably cause widespread casualties. This war alone would be enough to drain the resources of numerous Mountain Gods.

Even with the profound fear in their hearts, all the Mountain Gods could only comply with the command of Yunfu Mountain Lord, mobilizing the monster tribe to the borders to exert pressure.

Countless members of the monster tribe emerged from the deep mountains and old forests, their collected monstrous energy moving towards Yun Province with an oppressive power akin to dark storm clouds engulfing a city.

Half a day later, Zhennan Army of Yun Province.

Marquis Zhennan listened solemnly to the soldier’s reports about the movements on the border of the Yunfu Mountains, his eyes constantly drawn to the map of Yun Province in front of him.

This time, there was not the disturbance of the heavy rain like before in Qing Province. The most critical mechanized units of Zhennan Army were rushing to the frontlines. Even the numerous missile launchers of Yun Province’s garrison aimed at the Yunfu Mountain area.

Once the war truly broke out, this modern armada of steel would undoubtedly demonstrate its extraordinary power, different from that of cultivators.

In addition, all official cultivators from Yun Province had been deployed to the front line. Their primary duty was not to kill the monsters, but to safeguard the modern mechanical units from covert attacks by the monster tribe.

Despite these preparations, Marquis Zhennan was still gripped by a certain sense of apprehension.

The Yunfu Mountain range, being the largest gathering place for the monster tribe in Yun Province, had always been under the control of the monster tribe since ancient times.

Even in the three thousand years of Spirit Energy depletion, the Yunfu Mountains still hosted a large number of strong wild beasts, continuing to thrive and multiply.

Furthermore, because of the rough roads and dangerous mountain terrain, aside from some mountain folks, few people ventured into Yunfu Mountains over several thousand years.

Now that the Yunfu Mountain Lord suddenly led many Mountain Gods to attack the borders, it was likely to have severe consequences.

As the most prominent Mountain Deity in entire Yun Province, the Yunfu Mountain Lord undoubtedly had confidence in confronting this war directly, and it was certainly not a small dispute.

If handled poorly, it could ignite a large-scale war between the whole of Yun Province and the monster tribe. This was inevitable disaster for Great Xia, given the unstable situation at present.

“First, there was the disturbance caused by the appearance of Ghost Market, then the massive flood in Qing Province caused by the surge of River Ji and Dongting Lake.

Just as that ended, there were disasters of the Jidu Aquatic Clan and Yellow River Aquatic Clan fighting in Cang Province. The rising Sunn Family was causing stir over someone named Falling Clouds, even making a fuss at the Imperial Astronomical Bureau in the Imperial Capital.

Just as things started to calm down a bit, the monster tribe of Yun Province started to make noise again, exacerbating the unrest caused by the Spirit Energy Tidal Surge.”

Marquis Zhennan couldn’t help but sigh.

Overseeing three provinces, holding command of Great Xia’s Zhennan Army, he should have been the unquestionable authority in the Southern Three States. But who would have thought that he would be beset by such consecutive calamities.

In these recent times, his hair had noticeably turned white.

“His Majesty intends to transfer me to Tai Province, to represent Great Xia and hold command at Fengdu Ghost City. After all these matters are resolved, should I consider it?”

Just as Marquis Zhennan was contemplating, hurried footsteps sounded from outside. A captain rushed in and quickly said:

“Lord Marquis, there seems to be a problem with the monster army in the Yunfu Mountains.”

Marquis Zhennan asked in surprise, “The battle is imminent, what problems could they carry?”

An odd expression appeared on the face of the captain.

“It seems like they were attacked from behind their main force.”
