Chapter 108: Chapter 108: The 9th Mountain Colonel Chen Yuan (Request for monthly ticket) Chapter 108: Chapter 108: The 9th Mountain Colonel Chen Yuan (Request for monthly ticket) After Chen Yuan entered the passage, Thousands of miles away, “li” A hawk’s screech split the sky and pierced through the clouds. At this moment, the world was a blur. The wind raged as if to uproot mountains, the rain fell as if to breach river embankments. A streak of silver light tore through the rain curtain, suddenly racing away like a shooting star into the distance. Upon closer inspection, it was none other than an immense silver giant falcon with a wingspan of a full forty feet, its feathers shining a silver radiance akin to the sharp edge of a blade, slicing through the rain tumbling from heaven and earth, stirring up rows of white rain lines. Its wings beat fiercely, whipping up fierce gales, carrying it a hundred meters away in an instant. Atop the silver giant falcon stood a silhouette, the torrential wind and rain held at bay half a foot from the figure, who was holding a cyan jade seal in hand, with eyes as sharp as those of the falcon beneath, gazing into the distance at the massive black wall under the weighty rain curtain. Bigger by several folds than White Emperor City, nestled amidst the expanse of rain-soaked wilderness, the city loomed like a behemoth hidden in the abyss. Jingguan City, the first city on Jiannan Road, a heroic city dominating the tens of thousands of miles of Bashu territory. At this time, within the twenty-nine gates and several passageways of the colossal city, fleets of swift horses were thunderously galloping out. “Drive!” “Drive!” “Drive!” “...” Cries rang out, cutting through the rain curtain, soaring into the void. Behind the figures clad in cold light iron armor trailed three black gold-trimmed command flags, exuding a chilling presence. The fluttering banners stood resolute against the storm, transforming into torrents of black fury that broke through the rain curtain, causing the earth to rumble thunderously. The man who stood upon the silver giant falcon, sent from White Emperor City, had his pupils suddenly constrict. “Mountain-cutting Army!” This was the direct military force under the command of Jiannan Road’s Sky Patrol Department, overseeing the thirty-six prefectures of Jiannan Road. Wherever the army marched, they leveled mountains and demolished temples, smoothing over all in their path. However, this army was usually stationed at Jingguan City and was only mobilized when calamitous events necessitated their deployment to suppress rebellion within a prefecture. And now, witnessing the iron torrents charging forth through the water, rushing in all directions over the plains, transforming into raging currents, it was clear this was no ordinary prefecture’s upheaval. The man drew a sharp breath. “Something big has happened!” Meanwhile, inside Jingguan City, the rain curtains seemed to hang straight from the heavens, filling the air with an omnipresent air of frosty determination. Within the city stood Yunding Mountain, magnificent and towering. Atop Yunding Mountain, amidst pavilions and towers with sweeping eaves and towering spires, the predominant black-style architecture blurred into one amidst the sheets of rain. The Sky Patrol Department’s base was situated right here. At this moment, on the mountain, urgent orders were being sent flying, reverberating throughout Yunding Mountain. “Summon the garrison general’s orders!” “Third Mountain’s Colonel, summon the troops from the Sword Bureau, Gongtian Bureau, and Demon-hunting Bureau. All forces, march forth to Jiange Pass! “Orders received!” “Fourth Mountain’s Colonel, summon the troops from the Halberd Bureau and Trap Bureau. Both forces, advance to Tianxiong Pass.” “Orders received!” “.......” Orders were rapidly issued, mustering soldiers and allocating command. At this time, inside a grand hall, Row upon row of imposing figures, armored and armed, lined up on both sides. Each one radiated with intense Heavenly Pass Qi, embodying a formidable spirit, their eyes full of intense beams. Following the issuance of an order, A figure in armor stepped forward from the formation, saluted to receive the command, and turned to leave the hall. Quickly on Yunding Mountain, the troops stirred, shouts rang in unison, and a roaring torrent surged down the mountain. At this moment, “Report!” “Commander!” An armored figure stood outside the great hall, kneeling on one knee, cupping his hands in salute. “The Colonel from White Emperor City under Colonel Xiang’s command has come with his Tiger Talisman and letter!” “He says there are urgent matters to report!” In the center of the great hall, stood a Great Han at this time, with his whiskers curling upwards, and his eyebrows tinged with a faint yellow, wearing a helmet with a red ornament and gold inlays; donned in a chainmail armor with a lion-faced pattern; wearing a brocade robe embroidered with clouds and mythical beasts. This man was the Deputy Commander of the Sky Patrol Department on Jiannan Road, according to Daqian’s official ranks, he belongs to the Standard Fourth-rank, at the Fourth Heavenly Barrier Tao Fruit Realm, still answering to the Commander above him, and the garrison commander in charge of the whole Taoist Office. “Let him in!” “Yes!” Soon, the Colonel who rushed here from White Emperor City entered the great hall. Upon seeing so many from the Fourth Heavenly Barrier gathered inside the hall, he sensed that the matter was serious and his heart tightened; he hastened forward to pay his respects. “I am the Mountain Patrol Military Officer from White Emperor City, subordinate to Colonel Xiang, greeting the Commander!” “Hand over Colonel Xiang’s letter!” The Commander spoke directly without any superfluous words. The other party handed over the letter to him. He unfolded the letter to read, his gaze first jumping, a gleam flashed across, then his faint yellow eyebrows furrowed, and he couldn’t help but curse angrily, “Damn it, those Human Demons from White Emperor City, they also have a Golden Scale to summon demons for the Demon Fruit Conference.” The letter from Xiang Qingtian first mentioned that one of his Mountain Patrol Military Officers had successfully made a breakthrough and needed an item of Geng Metal, but before he could celebrate, the letter went on to say that the situation in White Emperor City was dire, and during a battle, he saw someone from the Demon Cult, one of the Four Symbols Venerable, using a piece similar to a golden dragon scale to summon demons, asking if the Taoist Office knew of this item. Did he know? Of course, he knew, that was the summoning token from the Demon Demon Tao Fruit Conference. And this Demon Demon Tao Fruit Conference, which occurred once every Jiazi cycle, had reached the time to begin! Previously, that place was a graveyard for the Devil Race on Bashu land, and as time passed, it gave rise to a strange phenomenon, where Demon Fruit appeared, later sealed by the Great Demons of the Ten Thousand Mountains, opened once every Jiazi cycle, then distributing the summoning slots, going inside to search for Tao Fruit. But that was before, when Daqian had not collapsed, these guys could only sneak around in the deep mountains! Now, with demons emerging and causing disasters everywhere, these guys were using this opportunity, planning to use this item to open a passage, through which powerful demons could be summoned to attack the prefectures. The Great Demons within the Ten Thousand Mountains had set this plan, just waiting for this opportunity! The Taoist Office was now mustering troops and reassigning the army to prepare for this very situation! Such a situation, if not handled properly, could lead to being attacked from all sides. “Pass my order!” He shouted loudly, but soon paused. At the moment, there were almost no troops to dispatch! His eyes flickered rapidly a few times, he thought of something, and he sighed softly. “Reassign the remaining soldiers from Ninth Mountain to aid White Emperor City!” “There is a Mountain Patrol Military Officer, Chen Yuan, who has broken through the Fourth Heavenly Barrier; I have temporarily assigned him to act as Ninth Mountain’s Colonel, to work with the Pass Colonel defending White Emperor City against the Human Demon’s attack!” “As for the conferring of the Tiger Talisman, it can only wait until the situation stabilizes a bit more to do so!” “Yes!” Soon outside the hall, someone leapt onto a horse, carrying the Command Flag, to the foot of a mountain peak on Yunding Mountain, where military camps were stationed. “The Commander’s order: Soldiers of Ninth Mountain, muster immediately and depart for White Emperor City without delay, to cut down the mountains and eliminate demons; the newly appointed Ninth Mountain’s Colonel is already there!” As the messenger’s voice fell, the sound of snapping echoed. One after another, figures walked out. Many were wounded, missing arms or legs were not uncommon. These men showed shock and weariness. This was a defeated army. These soldiers had just been withdrawn from the bitter cold lands in the west, from the front lines of the conflict with the Eight Demon Kingdoms. And their following Colonel had also fallen in battle not long before. “Yes!”
