I Slaughtered Through the Dungeon Worlds with My Cheats
Chapter 506 - 251 Draft Rules, Unseal [Happy New Year!]

The Barbarian army did not retreat up Mei Mountain, but instead moved to the side.

They completely yielded Mei Mountain.

This scene left Mu Rufeng and the others completely baffled.

Of course, they did not pursue the Barbarian army; their mission was not to kill the Barbarians.

"Mu Rufeng, quickly lead the army to occupy Meishan Pass. Your task is to hold it until this time tomorrow," Han Zhen said.

"Yes, Great General!" Mu Rufeng responded and then immediately led the army to the pass at the foot of Mei Mountain.

Mu Rufeng immediately had all the soldiers line up in formation, completely blocking the entrance to the mountain.

Mu Rufeng placed Wang De and Lü Sanshan at the front, while he positioned himself at the rear, facing towards Mei Mountain.

Mu Rufeng always felt that the most dangerous direction was not the front, but above on Mei Mountain.

"Everyone stay alert; if you're hungry, eat some dry food," Mu Rufeng said.

They had been marching rapidly, with almost no rest, and had skirmished twice with the Barbarian army, naturally expending a lot of energy.

Eating some dry food would help sustain them and prepare for the upcoming battle.

Then, Han Zhen, along with two other Soul Refining experts, bypassed the army and headed towards Mei Mountain.

Clearly, they must have received orders from the Emperor of the Great Xia to investigate.

Mu Rufeng was not concerned about this; his most pressing task was to hold this position for 24 hours.

If there were no lingering Barbarian army ominously nearby, Mu Rufeng would definitely ascend the mountain alone to investigate.

...

One hour, five hours, ten hours.

In the blink of an eye, twenty hours had passed.

The sky was beginning to brighten; in just half an hour, the sun would rise.

Mu Rufeng had stationed the army beneath Mei Mountain for a day, yet not a single enemy had attacked.

Not even a Barbarian soldier, let alone a fly, had come this way.

Moreover, Han Zhen and the other two had been up the mountain for so long and had not come down.

Mu Rufeng vaguely sensed something was amiss.

He wanted to go up Mei Mountain to assess the situation, but with the Barbarian army stationed several kilometers away staring menacingly, he simply couldn't leave.

"Forget it, let's wait another four hours."

Mu Rufeng took out some dry food and ate.

After twenty hours, Mu Rufeng had been in a continuous state of high alert, though he didn't feel much of it.

But it was different for his soldiers; compared to the day before, their spirits were markedly lower.

Three more hours passed.

Mu Rufeng was now just one hour away from completing the second phase of his mission.

"Hmm?" Suddenly, Mu Rufeng's expression changed slightly.

He saw the black fog on Mei Mountain, which even the shockwaves from opposing armies clashing couldn't affect, was now beginning to move.

The black fog was spreading outward.

The speed wasn't fast; it would probably take about fifteen minutes to reach their location.

Seeing this, Mu Rufeng's expression darkened.

Ghost Power erosion was not much of an issue for him, after all, his own body also contained Ghost Power, and he had three Contract Demons within him.

But these soldiers only had Qi Blood Power in their bodies. If Ghost Power entered them, would it cause any strange abnormalities?

While Mu Rufeng was pondering how to break the situation, the scene changed again.

The black fog rapidly contracted towards the top of Mei Mountain.

In just the blink of an eye, all the fog gathered above Mei Mountain Peak.

And the other parts of the mountain were now completely visible to the soldiers.

Upon seeing the scene on the mountain, Mu Rufeng gasped sharply.

Above, the ground was covered with dense bones.

Bones utterly devoid of flesh, all filled with gnawing bite marks.

Judging by the skeletons and the scattered remains of objects and clothing fragments, they all belonged to the Barbarian people.

"Ge... General..." a soldier beside him stuttered, his voice trembling.

These were among the elite of the elite, many of whom had been on battlefields and killed before.

But it was their first time seeing such a vast number of bones, such a horrific sight.

"Stay focused!" Mu Rufeng snapped back to reality and immediately channeled his power to awaken the soldiers.

The remaining men, reminded by Mu Rufeng, regained their composure and calmed their unsettled emotions.

"Be completely on guard, prepare for battle!"

Mu Rufeng shouted again.

Because of the anomaly at Mei Mountain, the distant fifty thousand Barbarian army was on the move again.

No, it was no longer just fifty thousand.

Due to the day's progression, fifty thousand had turned into one hundred thousand.

But behind those hundred thousand Barbarian forces, there was another army from Great Xia.

During the day, it wasn't just the Barbarian army that had reinforced; their Great Xia army also arrived.

However, due to certain reasons, they had not attacked, but were simply confronting each other here.

Now, with the fifty thousand Barbarian army moving, the remaining fifty thousand were confronting another Great Xia army.

That is to say, Mu Rufeng's ten thousand Demon Suppression Army would have to face fifty thousand Barbarian soldiers again.

"Everyone, place the Elixirs under your tongue. If you run low on Qi Blood, swallow them immediately," Mu Rufeng issued orders once more.

All the soldiers complied, placing Elixirs under their tongues, so that they could swiftly swallow the Elixirs to recover when they were overly exhausted.

The fifty thousand army came closer, and Mu Rufeng timely ordered his soldiers to initiate the four major military formations.
