The war front Part 2

/*unedited*/

The darkness and pandemonium along with the stench of death and blood covered the whole land. This scenery could make even the strongest and the bravest man cower in fright. Complete and incomplete corpses of demons, beast-men, and humans are strewn all over the place. It was like the land of the dead as far as the eye can see.

This carnage and destruction have claimed far too many lives, and in the helm of this chaos is two meters giant with three black horns on his forehead. On his back are two large black dragon-like wings. The demon has been terrorizing the battlefield ever since the war restarted a few days ago.

The beast clan and the cultivators on the frontline were on respite when they saw the demons began retreating. However, just a few days ago they saw the demons began advancing again in droves.

Using their spirit cannons and siege weapons, the cultivators and the beast clan has gained an advantage in the war. Hundreds of thousands of demons died while many have been wounded. It was supposed to be the time for them to be happy and celebrate, but suddenly this new demon came into the battlefield and began turning the tide of war.

They call him the new demon Lord, Belfast.

"How many of our generals have died in his hands?" shouted a middle-aged man wearing golden armor and a long silver cape.

This man is the main general of the cultivator's army sent by the empire, General Ligong Xi.

Ever since the war began against the demons, he was the one who leads the charge and regained the footing of the beast clan in this war. Due to his courage and great strategy, the beast clan was able to preserve more cities and stopped the demon advancing, in fact, he was able to drive them back.

Because of this, both the beast clan and the cultivators in this battlefield have great respect for him and his command. Even the emperor of the beast clan truly respected the great general.

General Ligong Xi is a part of the Xi imperial family and is one of the great five masters protecting the empire along with the great array master, Fang Long Ju or Master Ju. Whenever the empire faces a great catastrophe these five masters would move accordingly to protect the empire.

Right now, he and the rest of the upper echelon of the alliance of both beast-men and humans are having an emergency meeting about the new enemy calling himself the new demon king.

"General, two beast clan's war front generals have died and also two from the hums." A man beside him reported.

"How many casualties do we have today?" General Ligong Xi asked in a solemn tone.

"Around 5 thousand… General, sir."

After hearing this, everyone in the room stayed silent. In just a day, they have lost another 5,000 warriors.

"This must not go on, we need to find a way to push the demons back or even expel them… I heard that someone from the Wu kingdom knows how to make a holy field array? I asked to get those people, are they here yet?"


"General, they have already arrived yesterday. The group is being led by a woman named Ling Ya. She is the head array master sent by the Wu kingdom. Their group has already started to set up the large protecting array for all the forts in the front line."

"Good! When will the array become operational?"

"It will be today…"

As soon as the adjutant beside the general spoke a large golden array suddenly rose up covering the entire fort.

"That's a large protection array? How did they manage to create such a thing this fast?"

"This is impossible! I've heard that gathering the Qi was the reason why this large protection array took too long to set up…"

"What do you know, master Ju is helping them. Of course, they can set up everything that quickly."

The upper echelon especially the humans began clamoring in amazement, while the beast clan just stood there in awe. They could not help but sigh helplessly. This is the reason why humans were able to win the war between them all the time.

If these people wanted to take over the land of Beastia it would be too easy. But since the land is just a barren desert, the humans didn't put it in their eyes.

"Haha… Call for the head array master here, I and the beast clan emperor would like to personally thank her." General Ligong Xi said after looking at the beast emperor and receiving a nod.

Not long later, a beautiful woman followed by a child beside her and a handsome man along with around thirty people enter the room, behind his group is also a group of middle-aged and old men wearing a gray robe with the array formation faction emblem on their robes entered.

Master Ju is in front of the second group.

The group surrounded the room as Ling Ya and Master Ju walk towards the seat near General Ligong Xi and the beast clan emperor.

"Master Ju, Lady Ya, we of the alliance army greatly thanks you for your hard work." General Ligon Xi said as he offered the two a courteous bow.

The beast clan emperor is a member of the feline race and he has a lion for a head with a muscular body and a strong aura that's equal to a nascent realm cultivator in its late stages.

Just like the emperor of Xi, the beast clan emperor is also about to breakthrough.

"I would also want to grant you this boon." The beast clan emperor said in a deep powerful voice.

A cat-woman suddenly walks forward and handed two silver rings. At one glance one can already guess that the rings are spatial tools.

"General, your majesty, these commoners dare to accept this bountiful gift… We thank you." Ling Ya said as she curtsied.

Master Ju, on the other hand, stretches forth his hand and grabs the ring. He then cupped his hands.

"This old man wanted to say 'thank you', to the two of you."

Although master Ju looks simple, his cultivation is not below the two leaders. If Shin Jiao would be here, he would be surprised to see that he has already improved his cultivation by leaps and bound.

The meeting inside that large hall continued as they discuss their plans and strategies.

Meanwhile, the demon suddenly became frustrated upon seeing the golden barriers being erected from each fort in the front lines. Right now, as far as the eye can see the many forts blocking the path of the demons have already begun lighting up one by one with the golden protection field.

When the new demon Lord Belfast saw this, his face contorted in anger.

He once again sees the craftiness of humans in using magic.

So he commanded the demons to retreat from the battlefront for the meantime as they prepare for another siege. He can't accept the fact that a mere golden light can stop his powerful army from advancing.



Shin Jiao, on the other hand, has begun traveling with the group. However, this time they didn't travel in speed but in caution.

Because on their way they have discovered that many stray demons are within the desert sands. Some are hiding under, while others are camping in some oasis.

Suddenly, Shin Jiao stop on his tracks.

"What's wrong?" Agnes suddenly asked.

The others with them didn't bother because they are too cautious as they continue walking.

"We… we have to camp in this place." Shin Jiao suddenly said.

This made every one of his six companions confused. Because right now, they are in the middle of the desert and there are no oasis. It would be more logical if they are near one, but the place is too barren.

"I'll set up the camp. Tell the other if they wanted to continue its okay with us." Shin Jiao said calmly.

Wuji Jiao talked to the other groups and they just nod their head and continue on their way.

Shin Jiao took out his portable house and then he submerges the house under the sand.

Inside, Agnes began to pester Shin Jiao the reason why they suddenly stopped.

"Hey, tell me why are we stopping? The front lines are just a couple of kilometers away."

Hearing her words, Shin Jiao rolled his eyes. That's how it looks like, but in truth, they are not even halfway there.

Suddenly Shin Jiao opens a circular latch under the tenth. Then he suddenly dives under the sand.

"Hey… what are you…?" Agnes shouted as she looks at the sand in agape.

The rest were also dumbfounded at this scene.

An hour later…

The figure of Shin Jiao suddenly resurfaced from the sand and on his face is a big grin.

However, what made the rest of the people confused is the arm length crystal on his hand. The crystal looks black but inside it, a dark gooey like substance can be seen.

"What is that?" asked Agnes in confusion.

"Hehe… this… this thing will make this whole deserted land very valuable." Shin Jiao muttered.

From the very first time he knew that there is a desert in the place, and the story of the black dragon killing everything in his territory thousands of years ago, he already suspected something like this to appear.

If on earth there is oil, in this world there is also something like oil. But this substance is not as volatile as oil, instead, it is a very chaotic form of liquefied mineral inside a crystal stone. Like oil it can provide energy, how it works is still a mystery to Shin Jiao but from his goggles, he can confirm the huge amount of energy within that crystal.

If he can tap on it, then it's like having an unlimited supply of liquid black ore.
