Book of Disaster

His body is as majestic as a mountain, giving people a sense of unshakable faith while exuding a majestic aura and power.

But looking closely, one can see that the man's face was as if chiseled by a knife and an axe. His lines were firm, his chin was clearly defined, and his tightly closed lips revealed his courage and determination. It was obvious that he was not an ordinary person.

And his eyes were extremely sharp, like a hunting falcon, flashing with keenness and wisdom. It seemed that he could see through the other person's mind and discover the other person's weaknesses at any time.

This person is Zhang Menghu!

The supreme commander of the Muyuan Base in Dayu Country, a quasi-saint-level strategist, and Pei Yuankui's direct superior.

This man had extremely rich experience on the battlefield, and he was also very close to the Pei family, from which Pei Yuankui came, and they were old friends.

Pei Yuankui's rapid rise in officialdom was also related to this person's support.

"wrong!"

Zhang Menghu suddenly stopped and looked around.

As he raised his arm, the eight thousand soldiers obeyed his orders and immediately went from being extremely active to being extremely quiet, and all stopped.

Even the dust that was raised subsided instantly.

"Sir, what's wrong?"

An adjutant from the rear quickly rode forward and asked.

"Something's wrong!"

Zhang Menghu's eyes flickered as he scanned the surroundings.

This place is only more than thirty miles away from Pei Yuankui's base, and it will be reached in a few moments, but for some reason, he suddenly felt a little uneasy.

So quiet!

Zhang Menghu frowned and said suddenly.

There was silence all around, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Didn’t Pei Yuankui say that Wei Shenfeng, the only son of Marquis Liefeng, the commander of the Yuan Dynasty’s front-line base, was leading the Fengshen Army towards here? Why wasn’t there any sound?

"What did Yuan Kui say? Did they encounter Wei Shenfeng? Have they already engaged in battle?"

"I don't know... We set out immediately after receiving General Pei's order and rushed here. Judging from the current situation, General Pei should have obeyed the adults' orders and temporarily retreated strategically to delay time. The two sides have not yet engaged in a battle. ... They should still be waiting for us to arrive and meet up with them."

The adjutant beside him thought for a moment and said.

Zhang Menghu was silent. What he said made sense. He had indeed written a letter before, asking Pei Yuankui to wait for them to meet up before taking action. Thirteen thousand people, plus their three quasi-saints, should be enough to capture Wei Shenfeng.

...However, he still felt that something was wrong, as if some important information had been overlooked by him.

"wrong!"

Zhang Menghu sat upright on his horse, raised his eyebrows, and suddenly said:

"All troops, listen up and be on guard! Also, send a group of soldiers to the valley base right now. I want you to personally check out the situation ahead. You must see Yuan Kui."

“…Yes, sir!”

The adjutant was stunned when he heard this, although he felt it was unnecessary. The envelope requesting assistance had General Pei's unique mark on it, and the handwriting was exactly the same. It was indeed his work and could not be imitated by outsiders.

However, Zhang Menghu has always been the most arbitrary and decisive person in the army, and no one can disobey him.

Hoof clatter!

Soon, a scout team of six or seven people emerged and quickly headed towards the valley where Pei Yuankui was.

But they had just disappeared, and suddenly -

"Roar!"

A lion's roar shook the earth, like thunder, resounding throughout the mountains and forests. Below, the eight thousand soldiers were suddenly startled and alert in all directions, not understanding where the roar came from.

But on the horse in front, Zhang Menghu was shocked all over, felt something in his heart, and suddenly raised his head.

However, after just one glance, Zhang Menghu's pupils shrank and his expression suddenly changed.

Just above the dark clouds, under the reflection of the bright yellow moon, a towering black shadow suddenly appeared in the sky at some point.

The surface of the huge monster was faintly gleaming with metallic light, but it was too far away to see clearly. However, as soon as it appeared, it immediately shot towards them at lightning speed.

No, to be more precise, it was rushing straight towards Zhang Menghu who was riding on horseback at the front of the team.

"careful!"

A loud roar resounded through the heaven and earth, and the eight thousand soldiers and horses immediately scattered. Zhang Menghu on horseback was also shocked, his scalp swelled, and he was tense to the extreme.

"Roar!"

Seeing that there was no time to escape, Zhang Menghu roared violently, and his muscles became knotted and grew rapidly. The armor on his body also expanded rapidly. In just a blink of an eye, his body increased several times in size and reached the height of two or three people, like a giant.

And a terrifying power emanated from his body.

"Giant Shadow Soul!"

This is Zhang Menghu’s martial soul.

When his martial spirit was activated, his body's defense increased tenfold, and his strength also skyrocketed, giving him an incredibly terrifying power.

However, just as he had finished doing all this, boom, the powerful demon incarnation of Bai Qi was as powerful as thunder and lightning, like a meteorite from outer space, coming down from above the clouds, and with the acceleration effect of the purple lightning wings, violently hit Zhang Menghu below.

Rumble!

At that moment, the void collapsed, the earth shook, and endless destructive power combined together, like a huge wave, sweeping across hundreds of meters in radius.

Crack, crack, crack. On both sides of the road, countless extremely solid giant trees that were hundreds or even nearly a thousand years old were like paper. Under this horrible impact, they turned into ashes and collapsed into countless wood chips.

The originally solid ground was now showing countless cracks. At the center of the attack, the earth collapsed, revealing a huge pit, and billowing smoke and dust rose hundreds of feet high.

"grown ups!"

"grown ups!"

"grown ups!"

……

The 8,000 Dayu cavalrymen around were horrified. Countless soldiers wanted to rush into the smoke of the explosion, but they were afraid to do so. However, before they could make any further moves, a sound of shouting and killing came from all directions, shaking the earth.

"kill!"

This was followed by a powerful and dense sound of horse hooves.

On both sides of the official road, behind them, in front of them, and in the direction of the valley base, endless soldiers and horses surrounded everyone like a flood, rolling in sand.

"It's the Yuan Dynasty cavalry!"

"careful!"

"Form up! Quick!"

……

In an instant, the faces of the eight thousand Daewoo cavalry changed, and the faces of several generals at the front turned as pale as paper.

"Fell into a trap!"

Even if everyone was slow to react, they now understood that they had fallen into the enemy's trap.

Before they could form an effective defensive formation, a howling wind, flying sand and rocks, along with countless leaves, swept over the sky. In just a moment, everyone's vision was obscured, and the entire world was gray.

Fengbo's martial spirit!

At this time, Wei Shenfeng was standing on a branch in the distance with his hands open. Above his head, the wind was rolling, the clouds were rolling, lightning was flashing, and thunder was roaring. Endless gale was sweeping away under his control.
