Chapter 438: Power of the Breakthrough Pill, Bai Qiancheng Requests to Fight (2)
A thousand Breakthrough Pills sounded like a lot, but to the tens of thousands of soldiers of the Ten Nations Alliance, it was just a drop in the bucket.
Only the first Breakthrough Pill was useful to a martial artist in their life. Zhou Shu had originally planned to use them at a critical moment.
But he couldn’t care so much now. Although it was a little wasteful to use the Breakthrough Pill on sixth, seventh, and eighth-rank martial artists, in the current situation, if many soldiers’ injuries were not treated, they might die here.
The Demon Realm army was chasing after them. They had no time to heal.
The Breakthrough Pill was the only method Zhou Shu could think of.
Meng Bai had taken a Breakthrough Pill before. When he took out a Breakthrough Pill from the Cosmic Bangle, surprise flashed across his face.
He didn’t have time to think about where Zhou Shu had obtained so many Breakthrough Pills. As he quickly advanced, he called Wang Mu, Tang Chengshi, and Bai Qiancheng over.
“This is a medicinal pill bestowed by His Highness. Have those who are seriously injured and can’t hold on much longer take one each,” Meng Bai said quickly. “The number of pills is limited. Those who can still hold on, don’t give it to them first!”
“Medicinal pill?” Surprise flashed across the faces of Wang Mu, Tang Chengshi, Bai Qiancheng, and the others. But the situation was urgent, so no one asked too much.
“General Meng, is this pill really effective?” Bai Qiancheng asked as he took the pill from Meng Bai.
“I say, surnamed Bai, you really don’t learn.” Tang Chengshi snorted coldly at the side. “You still suspect His Highness? Have you forgotten what happened last time?”
Bai Qiancheng’s face darkened.?I was just asking casually. What does it have to do with you?
After Tang Chengshi finished speaking, he ignored Bai Qiancheng and quickly walked to the Great Jin army with the pills. He personally stuffed the pills into the mouths of the seriously injured Great Jin soldiers.
......
The Breakthrough Pill took effect very quickly. When Tang Chengshi had just fed it to the fourth Great Jin soldier, a spiritual energy vortex had already appeared on the first Great Jin soldier who had taken the Breakthrough Pill. The spiritual qi of heaven and earth surged into his body crazily. Jin Jun, who was originally on his last breath, suddenly opened his eyes, and the aura on his body began to become stronger at a visible speed.
“This…” Tang Chengshi and Bai Qiancheng, who were paying attention to his movements, were both stunned.
Just as they were in a daze, the second, third, and fourth Great Jin soldiers who had taken the Breakthrough Pill also began to emit the aura of a breakthrough.
Tang Chengshi and Bai Qiancheng were both first-rank martial artists. They were naturally familiar with breaking through!
“This…” Bai Qiancheng was shocked. He tightened his grip on the Cosmic Bangle that contained the Breakthrough Pills. A pill that could allow people to break through their cultivation realm?!
Although this wasn’t a healing pill, it was even more precious than a healing pill!
In an instant, Bai Qiancheng couldn’t even bear to share these pills!
Letting wounded soldiers take such a pill to treat their injuries was simply a waste!
Bai Qiancheng looked at Meng Bai, who snorted. “Don’t even think about it.”
He said in a deep voice, “His Highness said to distribute the pills according to the severity of the soldiers’ injuries, and not a single one can be kept!”
Bai Qiancheng was a little embarrassed. “I know. Don’t worry. I’m not so ignorant.”
Meng Bai’s gaze swept across another first-rank expert. “This pill is useless to first-rank martial artists. You don’t have to think about it. Follow His Highness well, and you will naturally benefit.”
Zhang Wuyuan and the others smiled awkwardly. Needless to say, they really had the thought of secretly keeping one.
A pill that could allow people to break through, wouldn’t it be even more helpful if they broke through the first rank of the Martial Dao?
But since Meng Bai had already said that the pills were useless to first-rank martial artists, they naturally wouldn’t dare to do such an embarrassing thing.
Everyone saw the effect of the Breakthrough Pill and began to move. They stuffed the pills into the mouths of the seriously injured and dying soldiers.
For a time, there was a commotion of breakthroughs everywhere in the army.
In the Ten Nations Alliance army, those who were heavily injured and on the verge of death were basically the weakest group. Most of them were at the seventh or eighth rank of the Martial Dao. When they broke through a realm, there was actually not too much of a commotion.
But there were too many people.
Thousands of martial artists broke through together. Even if they were all low-rank martial artists, this commotion was definitely not small.
The spiritual qi of heaven and earth surged into the martial artists’ bodies crazily, causing a storm. A tornado-like vortex formed in the air.
Even from a hundred kilometers away, this commotion could probably be easy to spot.
Everyone smiled bitterly in their hearts. Seeing that there was hope for the most severely injured group of people to recover, how could they hide their tracks after causing such a huge commotion?
Sure enough, there were gains and losses. Nothing was perfect.
“Everyone, advance at full speed. Over the mountain in front of us, there’s a huge river. As long as we reach the river, we have a chance of completely escaping our pursuers!” Zhou Shu’s voice sounded in everyone’s ears.
“Charge, brothers!” Zhang Wuyuan waved his arms and shouted.
The commotion of the breakthroughs continued. Some of the seriously injured people who needed to be carried could already walk.
Although the Breakthrough Pill was not a healing pill, once one’s cultivation broke through, the spiritual qi of heaven and earth would naturally have a healing effect.
As time passed, more and more heavily injured soldiers regained their mobility, and the speed of the Ten Nations army gradually began to increase.
But at this moment, the Demon Realm army, who had discovered the commotion, was already chasing after them.
The fastest wave of demonic beasts even appeared in their vision. They were only a hundred kilometers away.
A distance of more than a hundred kilometers would only take a first-rank demonic beast a moment to cover.
Zhou Shu frowned slightly. The Ten Nations Alliance still needed some time to cross the mountain in front of him. The injuries he had sustained from stopping the Demon Realm army had yet to recover. If he forcefully made a move again, his injuries would worsen.
It wasn’t that Zhou Shu was afraid of being injured but that he was in the Demon Realm and didn’t know what kind of situation he would face at any moment. He didn’t dare let himself be too seriously injured.
Otherwise, if he encountered a Great Demon or even a Demon King, he wouldn’t have a chance to escape if he was too heavily injured.
“King Wu’an! Bai Qiancheng requests to fight!” Bai Qiancheng suddenly appeared in front of Zhou Shu and said solemnly. “I’m willing to lead the Great Zhao army to block the enemy!”
“Block the enemy? Do you know what that means?”
Apart from Zhou Shu, anyone else in the Ten Nations Alliance would die when facing hundreds of thousands of demonic beasts and more than a hundred first-rank demonic beasts.
“I know,” Bai Qiancheng said. “But there are no cowards in Great Zhao.
“Your Highness, I questioned you on the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament battlefield not because I, Bai Qiancheng, am afraid of death.
“Today, I’ll let you see that my Great Zhao Army is not afraid of death. We will kill the demons to protect our nation!”
Zhou Shu looked at Bai Qiancheng and changed his opinion of him.
Admittedly, these guys were selfish and definitely not gentlemen. But this fearless spirit could at least prove that he was still a man.
“Good!” Zhou Shu said in a low voice. “Bai Qiancheng, lead the Great Zhao army and hold on for fifteen minutes. After fifteen minutes, no matter what happens, retreat!”
“Understood!” Bai Qiancheng cupped his hands and saluted.
“Great Zhao, follow me!” With a loud shout, Bai Qiancheng unsheathed his sword and moved in the opposite direction of the Ten Nations Alliance, facing the pursuing demonic beasts.
.
Thousands of Great Zhao soldiers charged forward with an indomitable aura, looking exceptionally tragic.
“Second Brother, I’ll go too.” Mi Ziwen appeared beside Zhou Shu. “The Hundred Wars Armored Army have the Dark Cloud Armor to protect them. Perhaps they can last a while.”
“There’s no need for that yet. There will be more chances to fight in the future!” Zhou Shu said.
“Keep moving. Don’t stop!” Zhou Shu shouted.
Mi Ziwen opened his mouth, but in the end, he said nothing. He turned and sprinted forward.
Everyone knew what those who stayed would face. No one expected Bai Qiancheng to take the initiative to stay.
Perhaps because he had lost face on the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament battlefield previously, he wanted to regain some face now.
But whatever the reason, he was now very manly!
The Ten Nation Alliance army continued forward and soon began to climb the mountain. Bai Qiancheng and his Great Zhao army had already exchanged blows with their pursuers.
The Ten Nation Alliance army, who didn’t dare to stop for a moment, didn’t notice that a sword light flew out from Zhou Shu’s body and headed for the battlefield.
