: Summoning the Dragon God

Just moments before.

"Report! General, Armory No. 6 has been emptied—all the elixirs inside were taken by the stone monster!"

A Golden Core-level deputy general received the latest intel, gritted his teeth in frustration, and quickly broke away from the assault team to head to Armory No. 6.

He activated his storage belt, channeled his spiritual sense, and filled the armory with shields.

Moon Phase Shields!

These shields were circular, with surfaces as smooth as mirrors, pure and flawless. Their edges were outlined in silver, and the entire shield emitted a faint glow.

"Little Zhuo, Armory No. 6 has been restocked with equipment," Sun Lingtong, from within the Ten-Thousand Mile Roaming Dragon formation, detected it immediately and called out.

Not long after, the "Stone Elder Monster" revisited the place and swept away all the Moon Phase Shields.

This type of weapon was also a classic, with multiple functions.

It could absorb moonlight, causing various moon phases to form on the shield's surface.

These phases included: First Quarter Moon, Crescent Moon, New Moon, Waning Moon, Last Quarter Moon, Waning Gibbous Moon, Full Moon, and Waxing Gibbous Moon.

Each moon phase had different effects on the shield's power. When combined with battle formations, they offered many unique advantages.

After collecting all the Moon Phase Shields, Ning Zhuo murmured, "This is the third time, right?"

"Yes," Sun Lingtong nodded.

No sooner had they stolen large quantities of military equipment than the White Jade Camp replenished their supplies.

Sun Lingtong looked puzzled. "Although restocking equipment helps maintain their military strength, this behavior feels like aiding the enemy."

Ning Zhuo replied, "They're worried that the 'Stone Elder Monster,' a Nascent Soul-level cultivator, might join forces with Lord Long."

"That's why they're using this method to keep us occupied."

"Admittedly, it's a very calm and rational approach. Although Shuang Jing lacks battlefield experience, he wasn't appointed as the commander of the White Jade Camp for nothing."

This situation was undoubtedly very advantageous for Sun and Ning.

They had previously been concerned that stealing or taking most of the equipment would weaken the camp's military strength, leading to Lord Long defeating the White Jade Camp.

Now, the White Jade Camp's generals were replenishing supplies promptly, easing Sun and Ning's worries.

As a result, they stole even more enthusiastically.

Just as they were selecting their next target, a phoenix cry echoed through the heavens.

Then, they saw a blazing arrow, so fast it left a brilliant, fiery afterimage in their vision.

The arrow struck Lord Long squarely in the chest. Even with spirit treasure-level shoulder armor protecting him, it couldn't block this arrow!

This sudden turn of events shocked Sun and Ning.

"Lord Long... is going to fall?"

"He won't die. He's a Nascent Soul-level cultivator; his Nascent Soul can traverse the void. The White Jade Camp has no means to seal the void."

"Mu Lan... the Red Heart Goose Arrow technique... truly formidable! With such a skill, no wonder she mobilized the entire army to reinforce the White Jade Camp."

Sun and Ning's expressions were complex.

One moment, they were worried that their rampant theft of equipment would weaken the White Jade Camp and lead to its defeat.

The next moment, Lord Long suffered a fatal blow!

Sun Lingtong sighed. "There are too many factors influencing victory or defeat on the battlefield. Even someone as powerful as Lord Long can suffer a sudden, severe injury. If we were thrown into the fray, we'd be torn to shreds in no time."

"It's better this way—low risk, and we can steal treasures in bulk."

Ning Zhuo nodded and remarked, "That's why, in how we conduct ourselves, it's best not to show off recklessly. Humility and caution are never wrong."

Lord Long paused, looking down at his chest.

His physical cultivation wasn't sufficient to allow him to survive without a heart.

His life force was rapidly fading.

Lord Long, in a state of extreme tension, suddenly looked up at the sky, raised his arms, and shouted, "Earth and wood, life force unending. Hear the heavenly mandate, Dragon God descend!"

"Great Ginseng Dragon King, grant your follower the power to reverse fate!"

In the next moment, the divine ginseng whiskers he carried began to grow wildly, spreading into countless tendrils that burrowed into his body, filling his blood vessels, and wrapping around his internal organs.

Finally, they converged at the hollow in his left chest, forming a wooden heart.

As soon as the heart took shape, it began to beat violently.

Simultaneously, the ginseng tendrils wove into a net, sealing the front and back of the cavity in Lord Long's chest.

"Ahhhhhhh—!" Lord Long roared at the sky, howling in agony.

His body, already massive and beyond the norm, swelled even further, transforming into a giant!

"Come, you ants, and feel the might of my master."

Lord Long's skin and flesh turned woody, and his voice became ancient and weathered.

*Boom.*

He stomped his right foot, immediately creating a deep crater in the rocky ground.

The earth shook violently, and numerous ginseng tendrils emerged from underground, piercing the limbs of soldiers and entangling them.

The White Jade Camp's formation fell into chaos. The cultivators' life force was drained by the tendrils and transferred to Lord Long, causing his combat power to skyrocket once more!

Two Golden Core deputy generals failed to dodge in time—one was grabbed by Lord Long's giant hand and crushed to pieces, while the other was kicked away, his bones shattered, sent flying high into the air and out of the battlefield.

"Dragon Whisker's breath, absorbing life and energy, wood and earth take root, ginseng tendrils reveal their might!"

Lord Long's voice boomed like a great bell, resounding in all directions.

In the next moment, thousands of ginseng tendrils sprouted from his body, launching a frenzied assault on the surroundings!

The tendrils moved like dragons or pythons, their attacks fierce and relentless.

White Jade Camp cultivators were skewered by the tendrils, lifted into the air, and quickly turned into desiccated corpses clad in armor.

This single strike claimed over three hundred lives!

Shuang Jing's face paled drastically.

The entire White Jade Camp was terrified, their military strength plummeting below the minimum threshold. With heavy casualties, the entire battle formation collapsed.

He had been bolstered by the battle formation's power, military strength, and national might. The collapse of the formation and the sharp drop in military strength caused his combat power and aura to plummet, leaving him weakened and dispirited!

Sun Lingtong stared wide-eyed. "Lord Long is back in action!"

Meanwhile, the White Jade Camp had crumbled.

The Ginseng Dragon King's divine power, at the Deity Transformation level, was truly terrifying.

Red Flower Camp.

Zhang Zhongyi, supporting Mu Lan, was also stunned.

He had just been cheering moments before, only to witness the White Jade Camp completely disintegrate and countless soldiers brutally slaughtered.

Sun and Ning exchanged a glance, and in the next moment, both moved simultaneously, charging toward Shuang Jing.

Earth Travel Technique!

The Stone Elder Monster traveled underground.

Lord Long also took action, swinging a dozen ginseng tendrils from his lower body, whipping them with fierce winds toward Shuang Jing.

Shuang Jing dodged frantically, at critical moments even rolling on the ground, looking utterly disheveled and devoid of the grace of a noble scion.

"Too late!"

A ginseng tendril emerged from the ground, its massive shadow enveloping Shuang Jing.

With life hanging by a thread, Shuang Jing hastily threw out the "Gao Sheng's Testament," desperately channeling military strength to block the tendril.

Shuang Jing fled madly.

The commander's flight shattered what little morale remained.

Lord Long locked onto Shuang Jing and gave chase.

Meanwhile, the "Gao Sheng's Testament" fell from the sky and was caught by a stone sphere.

Void Refinement level!

This was a Void Refinement-level military treasure!!
