Chapter 376: Chapter 376: Mr. Corpse Faces Five Million Enemies

On the opposite side, the Great Monk stared at the Bronze War Island with disbelief written all over his face. How could this be? How did he manage to find him?

"Golden Light Arhat!" Zhongshan stared directly at the Great Monk across from him.

"Do you know me?" Golden Light Arhat frowned.

"I advise you, leave my sight immediately, get off Tianlang Island, or else..." Zhongshan's voice turned cold.

"Or else what? Hmph, Emperor Da Jing? You have countless Imperial Realm experts by your side, so you might be safe, but not a single soldier below, oh, including that Wei Yinglan, will survive," Golden Light Arhat sneered coldly.

"Oh? You think you can kill my one million soldiers?" Zhongshan's eyes chilled.

"Within the Arhat Formation, I am the master. My 108 disciples will lead the Yin Yue Imperial Army into the formation. In just half an hour, your army will be annihilated. Can't you hear the voices from below?" Golden Light Arhat laughed excitedly.

"The Arhat Formation? You are the master? From the moment I found you, you ceased to be the master! Since you are so obstinate, then go!" Zhongshan's eyes narrowed coldly.

"Go?" Golden Light Arhat furrowed his brows, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes. Go? What does he mean?

"Szzzzz——" Suddenly, a purple sword shot out from Golden Light Arhat's chest, piercing his heart.

"Szzziiinnnggg——" The purple sword was swiftly withdrawn, leaving only a purple shadow. The sword disappeared without a trace.

Everyone widened their eyes in disbelief. What just happened? How? Who was that? A sword stabbed Golden Light Arhat to death? How did Golden Light not notice someone approaching? No, after the sword stabbed Golden Light Arhat, it disappeared. This stealth ability is too strong. Who?

Who was it? The Chief Commander of the Imperial Guards of Da Jing Dynasty, Shadow Emperor!

Last time, he concealed his aura and managed to meet Zhongshan on the Divine Land of Shenzhou without being detected by A Da. Today, he deceived Golden Light Arhat. Naturally, it was not a problem. Since their last separation, the Shadow Emperor had gone to receive the legacy left by the Nameless Old Man.

Upon his return, Zhongshan didn't ask what the Shadow Emperor had gained but only how strong he was now. The Shadow Emperor replied with, "I can assassinate an Imperial Realm expert." That was enough!

In the moment when Golden Light Arhat was pierced through the heart by the Shadow Emperor's sword, the whole world seemed to sway. The endless maple leaves around suddenly dispersed.

Returning to the previous desolate environment.

In the distance, the Yin Yue Imperial Army was swiftly approaching. The 108 bald monks looked incredulous.

"Archers, fire——" Yinglan commanded.

Immediately, tens of thousands of Breaking Gang Arrows shot straight into the sky where Golden Light had been.

"Boom——" Unable to deploy the strongest shield, the hastily erected shield only managed to block three thousand Breaking Gang Arrows before being pierced through like a sieve by the subsequent barrage.

Imperial Realm? So what if it's Imperial Realm? Aren't there countless Imperial Realm experts Zhongshan had killed in the past?

"Boom——" Frustrated, Golden Light exploded into pieces.

A golden divine light shot towards the distance in utter frustration.

"Pa——" In the void, it was as though a fox tail lightly patted a transparent light shadow, and the golden divine light shadow was swiftly swept over to Zhongshan, and it was instantly collected into his body, the finest supplement of Eight Extreme Sky Tail.

"Root god knowledge?" On the side, the Azure Cloud Wolf Commander sneered, with an unbelieving look

"The First Legion, Linxiao, pays respects to Your Majesty!"

"The Third Legion, Yi Yan, pays respects to Your Majesty!"

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers simultaneously shouted, "Long live His Majesty!"

"Come up," Zhongshan smiled.

"Yes!" Yi Yan and Linxiao immediately flew up to Bronze War Island.

The First Legion, two million soldiers. The Second Legion, one million soldiers. The Third Legion, two million soldiers.

A total of five million troops stood beneath Bronze War Island, gazing up with immense reverence.

"Your Majesty, we are now close to Jinling City. Within a few days at most, we can launch a decisive attack and take it down!" Yinglan said immediately.

Zhongshan was about to reply when Princess Qianyou suddenly spoke up, "There's someone ahead."

Everyone's hearts tightened as they looked into the distance. Before them lay a vast plain, seemingly endless with just wild grasses scattered about.

In the center of this plain stood a man in a coarse robe. His face was extremely pale, devoid of any color, and he sported a small beard on his chin. Despite facing five million troops, he showed no fear, only calmness and indifference.

"Yin Yue Imperial Dynasty, Mr. Corpse!" Yi Yan said softly.

"Mr. Corpse?" Zhongshan walked slowly to the forefront of Bronze War Island.

"I have arrived. Are you ready?" Mr. Corpse said calmly from afar.

"Ready whenever you are!" Zhongshan called out.

Mr. Corpse's face twisted into a strange smile. Suddenly, he extended his right hand, and as he swung his sleeve, a large amount of black smoke billowed out. Initially pitch-black as it left his sleeve, the smoke swiftly dissipated into the surrounding air and eerily seeped into the ground below.

"What was this plain before?" Zhongshan immediately asked.

"An ancient battlefield. It has been a battlefield since ancient times, long before the Yin Yue Imperial Dynasty was born. Countless lives have perished here. At one point, the ground was soaked red with blood," Qingyun Wolf Commander said promptly.

"An ancient battlefield?" Zhongshan raised an eyebrow.

"Rumble~~~~~~"

The earth ahead suddenly trembled. The plain shook irregularly, causing the five million troops of the Da Jing Dynasty to step back slightly. The cavalrymen were particularly uneasy, their restless steeds fearing the ground beneath them.

"Splash~~~~~~"

Not far from Mr. Corpse, a patch of soil was the first to be disturbed. No, it seemed to be unearthed. Everyone stared, pupils shrinking. From the overturned soil, a skeletal hand suddenly emerged.

One skeletal hand broke through the soil, followed by countless others all across the plain. They weren't just skeletal hands; they were humanoid skeletons.

From where it first emerged, a terrifying skeleton slowly crawled out from underground.
