Fire Country, Heavenly Capital Manor, Dragon Pavilion.
The Great Elder and the various Fire Country's higher-ups were among them.
"The formation of the Yan Huang Army is only the beginning. It is also a symbol that our Fire Country is about to launch a counterattack against the other world!”
The Great Elder said in a deep voice, his voice sonorous and powerful.
The eyes of everyone present contained a hint of excitement!
They all knew the hidden meaning behind First Elder's words.
Ever since the era of the recuperation of reiki began, the space passageway leading to the other world on Earth had been opened.
Due to the Fire Country's vastness, the number of Space Passages that were opened within its borders to other worlds was naturally extremely high.
And because the recuperation of reiki was too short.
The number of cultivators born within the Fire Country was also insufficient.
Hence after these Space Passages were opened, the Fire Country could only be on the defensive.
Send a large number of troops to guard these spatial passageways that connect to the other worlds. They will strictly guard them to prevent the invasion of foreign creatures.
But everyone knew.
Defending blindly was not a long-term solution.
Because as time passed, the number of Space Passages that opened within the Fire Country to other worlds would only gradually increase, and not decrease.
As more Space Passages opened, it meant that the Fire Country would need to send more troops to defend them.
In the long run, there would come a day when the Fire Country's cultivators and military strength would be insufficient and they would not be able to guard so many Space Passages!
At that time, it would be the most dangerous time!
The safest method.
He would definitely open a spatial passageway and attack an otherworld. If the otherworld was not a threat, then so be it.
If there were any threats, they would eliminate them to ensure that those foreign creatures would never be able to invade Earth.
This was the true strategy for long-term stability!
However, even though everyone knew this.
But with the Fire Country's current strength, it was impossible for them to achieve it.
Thus, they could only adopt the most aggrieved strategy of defending.
But now…
When millions of cultivators were born in the Fire Country.
Everything was different now.
The Fire Country's foundation had greatly increased, and they now possessed the initial strength to invade all the weak foreign worlds!
"Other than those other world passages that pose no threat to the Fire Country, we will still send a small number of troops to guard them.
Screen out the names of the other worlds within the Fire Country that had invaded the Fire Country, and choose one of them to be the first battle for our Fire Country to blow the horn of our counterattack!”
The First Elder said in a deep voice.
"The first target to counterattack the foreign world shouldn't be too strong. Powerful worlds like the Immortal Realm and the foreign world are not within the scope of consideration.
As for those worlds that have never invaded our Fire Country since the opening of the Space Tunnel, we should not make them our targets. If that were the case, how would our Fire Country be any different from those worlds that have invaded Earth?”
Someone suggested.
"Naturally."
Everyone present nodded slightly, expressing their approval of this suggestion.
"As for the first target, I suggest the 'Desolate Beast Realm' at the southern border. What do you think?”
The First Elder looked around and slowly said.
"The Desolate Beast Realm, huh? That's a good goal.”
"The Desolate Beast Realm should be our first target.
The number of soldiers of my Fire Country who died in battle due to the invasion of the other world is the highest in the Desolate Beast Realm!”
"Some time ago, the Desolate Beast Realm was in chaos. The Ji family guarding the southern border was almost wiped out.
He should use the Desolate Beast Realm as his goal and wipe out this world to comfort the souls of all those who died in battle!”
In the Dragon Pavilion.
The Great Elder's suggestion received the response of everyone present.
Desolate Beast Realm.
It was a world that was connected to a spatial passageway at the border of the Fire Country's southern borders.
It was also the first space passage that had opened within the Fire Country's borders to another world since the beginning of the era of the recuperation of spirit qi!
Most of the creatures in the Desolate Beast Realm were savage beasts of the demon race.
Ever since this spatial passageway opened.
The demon spirits of the Desolate Beast Realm had invaded Earth many times through the spatial passageway.
Although these demon creatures were not intelligent and did not have extremely powerful existences, their killing intent was extremely strong and incomparably cruel.
In addition, the spiritual energy in this world was abundant, and the demons born were quite powerful. Ordinary firearms could not cause effective damage to them.
Thus, the Fire Country had to pay an extremely painful price.
Fortunately, there was the Ji Family guarding the border of the Southern Region, coupled with the continuous support of the Fire Country's military forces, they were barely able to block the attack of the Demonic Beasts that were like a tidal wave, firmly guarding the spatial passageway, not allowing those brutal Demonic Beasts to enter the Fire Country's territory and wreak havoc!
The Ji Family inherited the Fire Country's most ancient Ji surname and was an ancient family that had lived in the Fire Country's southern border for generations.
Since the beginning of the era of recuperation of spirit qi, many cultivators had been born in the Ji family, and the family was prosperous and powerful.
After the Desolate Beast Realm was connected to Earth.
Thus, Ji Family volunteered to take on the arduous task of guarding the Southern Border passage.
Time passed.
Countless cultivators of the Ji Clan were killed and even buried in other realms.
However, he had faithfully carried out his mission, guarding the Southern Border's passageway, not allowing the Desolate Beast Realm's Demonic Beasts to take even half a step into the Fire Country!
Waves of demonic beasts crazily attacked, causing the Ji Clan to suffer heavy losses.
But even so, the Ji Family did not withdraw from the garrison.
No one fled, no one feared.
Even the entire Ji Clan had moved to the space tunnel!
It was an ancient glory that flowed in the depths of the Ji Clan's bloodline.
It was the glory and mission given to them by the ancient surname Ji.
The Fan Ji clansmen shall guard the Southern Border for generations. They are not allowed to migrate or flee. Unless they die and their clan is exterminated, they are not allowed to allow any Demonic Beasts to enter the Fire Country's territory!
This was the clan motto left behind by the previous clan leader before he died in battle!
For the past few decades, the Ji Clan had faithfully carried out this clan's precept.
No one fled, no one feared, everyone dared to fight, everyone dared to die!
And because of this, the Fire Country's Southern Border passage had always been impregnable.
The Ji Clan cultivators used their flesh and blood to build a steel wall to firmly resist the invasion of the beasts from the Desolate Beast Realm.
Although the Fire Country had invested a large number of troops into the Southern Region.
However, fighting against demon beasts was mainly dependent on the strength of the Ji Clan cultivators.
And now, with the formation of the Yan Huang Army, it already had the initial strength to counterattack the other world.
This was also the reason why the First Elder's suggestion to make the Desolate Beast Realm the first target was approved by everyone present.
These few decades, the Ji Family had suffered too much!
It was time to free the Ji Family.
Ji Family's blood could not be shed in vain, the blood of countless soldiers who died in the Southern Border passage could not be shed in vain!
They would attack the Desolate Beast Realm and destroy it to comfort the heroic spirits who had died in battle!
…………
The Fire Country's Southern Border, where the Ji Clan was located.
Ever since the spatial passageway connecting the Southern Border to the Desolate Beast Realm appeared, the people here were all evacuated.
Therefore, the land within tens of thousands of miles was deserted.
However, there was only one place that was lit up.
That was the Ji Clan's territory!
Many ancient buildings stood in front of the spatial passageway, emitting a faint aura of bloodlust.
What was even more shocking was that…
In front of the ancient building, there were countless tombs. They were densely packed and occupied almost everything in sight.
At a rough glance, there were no less than a million tombs!
This area was originally the resting place of the Ji Clan's ancestors.
The Ji Clan had existed for thousands of years. After the death of their ancestors, all of them had rested here.
However, ever since the spatial passageway to the Desolate Beast Realm was opened, it had been a long time.
The number of tombs here began to increase.
From time to time, there would be members of the Ji Clan who would bleed and then be buried here.
Many Ji Clan cultivators had self-destructed to take away more demon beasts, leaving nothing behind. They could only set up a cenotaph here as a memorial.
Apart from the Ji Clan.
Over the past few decades, the Fire Country's soldiers who had guarded the Southern Border's passageway and died alongside the Ji Clan's cultivators had all been buried here.
Thus, this place wasn't just a burial ground for the Ji Clan cultivators.
It was also the resting place of the Fire Country's millions of heroic spirits!
More than half of the millions of tombs were cenotaph tombs!
That was because the heroic spirits who had died in battle had all died in the Desolate Beast Realm. They had firmly guarded the front line and did not let those ferocious demonic beasts take even half a step through the spatial passageway!
At this moment, a figure stood silently in front of the endless tombs, as if he was paying his respects to the deceased.
It was a young man with a straight posture and a solemn expression.
His armor was covered in blood.
His name was Ji Yan.
He was the only one left among the cultivators of the Ji Family.
Currently, other than him, there were only some old, weak, women, and children who did not know how to cultivate in the Ji Family.
Originally, the Ji Family still had hundreds of cultivators.
However, some time ago, the demonic beasts in the Desolate Beast World suddenly went on a rampage and attacked the spatial passageway.
The cultivators of the Ji Family and the Fire Country's soldiers who were stationed here fought to the death as blood dyed the sky and earth red.
Finally, before the Fire Country's reinforcements arrived.
In the end, those demonic beasts did not attack from the spatial passageway.
However, all the Ji Clan cultivators and soldiers guarding this place had died in battle!
Only Ji Yan survived.
This was because he was the youngest cultivator in the Ji Family.
Ji Yan would never forget it.
Before the endless demon beasts attacked, the Ji Clan cultivators risked their lives to resist.
He couldn't forget that they were almost completely wiped out.
In order to protect him, Ji Clan cultivators had shed blood in front of him.
In fact, even the generals guarding this place had self-destructed and died while dragging several powerful demonic beasts with them in order to save him.
Even now, Ji Yan still remembered.
The words that the general had said to him at the last moment.
"Cough cough, hurry up and leave. The Fire Country owes your Ji Family a lot. Now, I can't let your last root be destroyed here. Live well for the Ji Family and all the heroic spirits who died here!”
After saying that, the general sent Ji Yan flying out of the spatial passageway with a single palm strike. Then, he stepped into the air and went to his death…
The scenes on the battlefield were still vivid in his mind.
However, those familiar people were no longer there.
"Ancestors and comrades, did you hear that? My Fire Country is about to form a cultivator army and will be leaving the Desolate Beast Realm today. Carry out the World Extermination War!"
Ji Yan muttered to himself as a faint light flashed in his eyes.
"Second Grandpa, Third Uncle, Fifth Brother, General Yang, I'm sorry. I'm afraid I can't follow your wishes…
I've already decided to follow the army and charge into the Desolate Beast Realm! Completely pacify this world and complete your unfulfilled wish!”
The cultivators of the Ji Clan were the Fire Country's soldiers stationed here.
He dreamed that one day, he would attack the Desolate Beast Realm and kill all the demon beasts in this realm, completely pacifying the chaos in the Desolate Beast Realm.
It was to comfort the countless heroic spirits who had died here over the decades.
But now, he was the only one left.
How could he retreat at this moment?
He wanted to follow the army into the Desolate Beast World.
He watched as those demonic beasts perished with his own eyes!
Ji Yan took out a jade pendant from his bosom.
It was an ancient piece of jade. On both sides of the jade, an ancient character was engraved.
One is called fire.
One is yellow.
This jade pendant was called the Yellow Flame Pendant!
It was an item that the Ji Clan's Patriarch had passed down from generation to generation.
But now, the cultivators of the Ji Family had all died in battle.
Naturally, this jade pendant was passed down to Ji Yan.
Ji Yan held the jade pendant with both hands, then respectfully knelt down towards the millions of tombs in front of him and kowtowed.
"I, Ji Yan, hereby swear! He must personally witness the destruction of the Desolate Beast Realm and fulfill the wish of his ancestors!”
