152 AGGRESSIVE ASSAULT
Long Tao was being brutally manhandled. After his nails, the assaulters went on with peeling his skin. Every time grievous damage was done, a healer was called in to heal him. The process repeated itself on and on.
The group of people monitoring the situation got regular updates on Long Tao’s condition. “He is a tough nut to crack.”
“It is expected from someone who was able to make us this desperate. The Jiao country is on the verge of winning the war. The numerical advantage they currently hold is because of him.”
“Did you send the news regarding the capture of Long Tao Unrivalled. He could use it as a deterrent to holding off the Jiao army. The soldiers respect Long Tao a lot, and his contribution to the current war is colossal. It is at least more than everyone else combined.”
“A messenger was sent to the border regions. No replies have been received until now. ”
“Even if we managed to use him as a bargaining chip, Jiao won’t be retreating. We would be the one forced to compromise without territory.”
“It is to be expected. We need to bargain an end to the current war. We need time to regroup and re-establish our military power. We have until the negotiations to completely break his mental fortitude.”
“Should we use the soul torturing method. “One of the leaders suggested.
“The method is too gullible to failure and the end result is likely to be a broken soul inside a shell. His condition might provoke the Jiao army to directly destroy the Chu country.”
.....
Unknown to them Su Menqi had already started the attack into the chu military camp.
....................
The Chu military camp-
When Unrivalled general got to see the enemy leader, he was shocked to find out it was a woman at Qi general level 2. He was forced to run away by someone like her. His cap was being annihilated by the enemy. It was the third night attack which the Jiao country carried out.
His only way of escape was cut by the death of his horse. “It’s a pleasure to meet you general Su.”
“I have come here to have a discussion with you Unrivalled.” Su Menqi proclaimed.
“Your action speaks otherwise.” Unrivaled tried to calm his nerves as much as possible. He couldn’t let this bitch get the better of him. He released his intimidating aura.
Even if Su Menqi was prepared she was still shocked by the revelation. “Peak Qi general. Congratulations on advancing in your cultivation, Unrivalled.”
“Even after knowing my cultivation realm, you still want to fight.”
“Who said I was fighting you alone.”. When Unrivalled looked around him, a shocking scene revealed itself. His whole camp was run over by the Jiao military. He was surrounded by an inestimable number of troops. There were hundreds of weapons pointing towards him.
“Still want to show off your strength”
Unrivaled general’s face took a turn for the worse. But after some time, his expression changed into that of laughter. “If I go down today, I will take hundreds with me. He unsheathed his sword and rushed towards the army. Multiple soldiers were killed with every swing of his sword.
Su Menqi didn’t expect lunacy from the Unrivalled general. She raised her hand and signaled the attack. Thousands of arrows and energy blasts rushed towards him. But he didn’t let the impact slow him down. Even if he was taking an enormous amount of damage, he made sure to pay back in kind.
“All the commanders are to heed my orders. Unsheathe your weapon and take the frontline with me.” Wishing to take down a peak QI general with the help of Qi masters was a fantasy.
Su Menqi decided to take matters in her own hand. All 6 commanders along with Su Menqi rushed in. Di Tao abstained from entering the battle. “Could they take him out” A question to ponder on arouse in his mind.
...????.....................
After the artifact manages to absorb all the Qi stones within the mine, the hard firestone deposit finally came into full view. ” Such a large deposit. It could improve the quality of the artifact by a great amount.”
“What amount of damage can you mend with these deposits?”
“If the artifact absorbs the complete mine, the artifact will promote by at least 2 minor levels. These stones can improve the fire element Qi in the artifact. We can create a gigantic Qi Pool with its help too.”
“Go ahead and absorb as much as you want. Leave a small amount for me to improve my fire-affinity.”
“These stones are a resource of much higher quality. I won’t be able to absorb it any time soon. I would require at least half- a month to completely absorb it, maybe even more. I won’t be able to rescue you during the process.”
“You don’t need to worry about my rescue. If Unrivalled is defeated here, Su Menqi will capture and use him to trade for me. My life won’t be in danger as of now.”
....................
“Is the barter fair enough?”
“Although the exchange won’t be fair, I won’t allow Unrivalled to leave the battlefield alive.”
“As soon as the exchange is done, all my avatars should directly attack on the convoy carrying him. The attack should occur within their camp.”
“What about the traitor?”
“I will have my revenge soon. I need to get the real body out of trouble first. Anything else will come later.”
Long Tao cultivation was advancing at a steady pace. Due to the enhancement in the artifact, the Quality of Qi increased by a lot, which enabled him to have a faster cultivation speed. He was on the verge of breaking through the third level of Qi general.
“Would I be able to break-through QI general level 3 by the end of the month.”
“You should be able to. The fire stones can help improve your cultivation speed.”
.......................
8 figures could be seen clashing all around the camp. The troops were instructed to continue with their long-range attack, while the commanders took charge o frontal confrontation.
Unrivaled’s cultivation stage lived up to its name. even after taking so many attacks, and the enormous damage, he was still continuing the killing spree. He even managed to injure the commanders on the Jiao side. “Stay in formation. A direct confrontation would result in our defeat. We need to work together to beat him.”
Unrivaled was madly swinging his sword. The commanders managed to surround him and attack from all sides. While he was busy confronting those attacks, Su Menqi rushed on top of him and poked her sword at his shoulders. The sword penetrated through his flesh, into the bones.
His Qi couldn’t protect his body due to deficient capacity. His right arm was useless now. “Do you give up or shall we continue the confrontation?”
“My pride won’t allow me to bow down before cowards.”
“Well said” Su Menqi along with the commanders rushed at him once more.
Di Tao used this opportunity to aim his pear at the unrivaled general’s legs. A swift through enabled the spear to pierce through his limbs and stick to the ground. The attack came out of nowhere, surprising Unrivalled general.
His face paled as blood continued to flow. He couldn’t even move as of now. His Qi reserves were exhausted due to the continuous fight. Di Tao threw a dart at his neck.
The Unrivalled general could feel his limbs weakening, as his consciousness sank into darkness. “Neutraliser seems to work well.”
Su Menqi signaled the soldiers: “Tie him up. Send a messenger to the Chu royal court. Inform them that we have successfully captured their army base, and will be progressing toward their capital next.”
