Chapter 626: Chapter 180: Mu Lan: Husband!

Du Tiechuan, a Divinity Transformation Level Cultivator specializing in Military Art, is one of the Upper Generals of Liangzhu Country.

He possesses an innate talent–Iron Wall.

This talent allows a Cultivator to greatly strengthen their defense within a short period of time, rendering them as immovable as a steel rampart. Thus, while deploying this innate ability, the Cultivator cannot move and must remain rooted to the spot.

Due to such a significant drawback, Iron Wall has consistently been judged as low-class.

Low-class talent seemingly does not befit a person like Du Tiechuan.

However, what’s truly powerful is never the innate talents, Magic Treasures, or Cultivation Techniques; it’s always the Cultivator themselves.

Any innate talent is merely an opportunity.

How to seize this opportunity and unearth its intrinsic value always varies from person to person.

As it turns out, Du Tiechuan has firmly grasped this opportunity and excavated an enormous treasure from it!

He developed his innate talent into a Divine Skill.

Even after the promotion, the Iron Wall Divine Skill remains mundane compared to other Divine Skills, with few practical uses and low utility value.

But in Du Tiechuan’s hands, he used the Iron Wall Divine Skill as the core, coupled with his main Cultivation Technique, to create a series of Military Arts.

Among them, Iron Stream Flat Country is the most powerful and famous!

Once this Cultivation Technique is cast, it can bestow enhancements upon soldiers, increasing the entire army’s weight and defense substantially, their strength and offensive power melding into one, gaining momentum, faster and faster. In the end, it swaps the fierce momentum for an unparalleled attack.

Its might is vast, like a tornado, capable of cleaving through mountains and seas, sweeping through heaven and earth, unstoppable.

The army surges like a torrent of steel, destroying all that is weak and unstoppable in its path, crushing any enemy in its way, conquering lands and expanding territory!

Any obstacle in front of the army will be shattered, ground into dust. Even robust individual Cultivators will have to confront tens of thousands of steel beasts, an overwhelming force difficult to withstand.

This is Du Tiechuan’s trump card, his killing blow. When used correctly, it can determine the outcome of a war.

After the Vanguard Army got trapped and the situation became unclear, Du Tiechuan dispatched four armies deep into Thousand Peak Forest, secretly sending strong Cultivators to escort them.

Once the enemy’s true and false conditions were probed, he quickly built the Dragon Shadow Nine Pillar Parade Platform at a great expense.

Each army was successively tested, allowing Du Tiechuan to refine these troops while also selecting the outstanding ones suitable for deploying the Iron Stream Flat Country Military Art.

After the first round of the parade, many generals guessed Du Tiechuan’s intentions.

Commander Du issued a clear military order that same day, outlining the upcoming plans–he intended to spend nine days on five parades. The army that could endure until the fifth round would become the main force, deploy the Iron Stream Flat Country Military Art, and launch a comprehensive attack on Thousand Peak Forest.

Instantly, the whole army was buzzing, discussing this Military Art.

The previous battle records had thoroughly proven the potency of this Military Art.

It can be said that this is Du Tiechuan’s unique masterstroke!

“We must join in! Every deployment of the Iron Stream Flat Country Military Art has been a great victory, without a single exception.”

“To personally participate and experience the famous Iron Stream Flat Country Military Art would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us Military Family Cultivators.”

“We must join! Once the war starts, the main army, reinforced by the Iron Stream Flat Country Military Art, will be unshakable. The remaining auxiliary troops will be targeted by the enemy and become cannon fodder.”

The soldiers aren’t fools. After some discussion, they understood the situation.

In Mulu Town, more than a dozen armies will be selected and eliminated through this test.

The selected armies will be enhanced by the Military Art, not only securing their safety but also ensuring they’ll be credited with military achievements.

The troops that are eliminated generally follow the main army into battle, finding themselves in a precarious position. The enemy isn’t stupid; they will naturally avoid the strong and attack the weak points.

Especially on the part of Thousand Peak Forest, which is just a local alliance and has several regular armies, but they do not have the support of National Power like the old and battle-hardened iron troops built through warfare.

The Alliance Army of Thousand Peak Forest isn’t adept at head-on assaults and will not be foolish enough to throw eggs against rocks when facing the main army under the Iron Stream Flat Country Military Art.

Therefore, their reaction is almost certain–they will undoubtedly launch full-force attacks on the other armies.

Only by rapidly eliminating this section can they regain some advantage, then seek opportunities to engage in a decisive battle with the main army of Liangzhu Country after the Iron Stream Flat Country Military Art concludes!

“We must spare no effort to squeeze into the main force.”

“We can’t afford to be eliminated. Once we’re pushed aside and the war starts, the situation will become very unfavorable for us.”

“The two treatments are like heaven and earth.”

With this understanding, many well-connected generals began their maneuvers on the night that Du Tiechuan officially issued the military orders.

But all their attempts at public relations ended in failure!

Du Tiechuan was well-prepared, with only himself having the power to make the selection, excluding anyone else’s involvement.

Some well-connected soldiers went directly to see Du Tiechuan, but even the Mechanical Princess was coldly rejected by him!

“I govern the army strictly, and all must abide by military discipline.”

“If I were to break the rules first, how could I command the entire army?”

Du Tiechuan spoke righteously.

After his attitude became widely known, his prestige surged dramatically.

Two days later, the army underwent its second parade.

This time, Ning Zhuo felt much less burdened, no longer suffering as he had before. However, the reaction of others was generally poor, with many soldiers from the Three Generals Camp collapsing and fainting on the spot.
