In the forest! Almost no one said a word. Zuo Ye was sitting on a high rock with his golden spear at his side, while Zuo Ye was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed and his mind in meditation, cultivating the holy power inherited from the Radiant God.

Suddenly, Zuo Ye opened his eyes and looked at the tent not too far away ? a shocking wave of spiritual power exploded from the tent, unleashing a tremendous pressure in all directions. This pressure could only be felt by those who had reached the level of outward release of spiritual energy, but the soldiers who were cleaning up the corpse did not feel anything out of the ordinary, so they continued to clean it up.

Zuo Ye stood up, grabbed his golden spear and walked towards the tent. Just as he walked in front of the tent, he met Zhou Tian Cheng, who was wearing a black bamboo hat.

"Mr. Wang!" Du Yu immediately bowed towards Zhou Tian Cheng.

"Yes!" At this time, Zhou Tian Cheng's aura had already been completely restrained. Even Zuo Ye couldn't sense Zhou Tian Cheng's strength with just his spiritual power sensing technique. Of course, Zuo Ye could still detect Zhou Tian Cheng's strength with his soul detection.

Without a doubt, Zhou Tiancheng's soul had already reached the Saint level, which was why he was able to completely control his Saint level strength so that most warriors of the eighth and ninth ranks wouldn't be able to discover his strength.

Saint level! This was a huge Feng Shui Ridge in the middle of cultivation. Many experts of the ninth rank, or even semi-sage experts, would never be able to reach the Saint level.

After reaching the Saint level, the user's vitality would first increase, allowing them to live another fifty years or so. In addition, the Saint level user could also fly.

At the Saint level, whether it was warriors or mages, they could freely soar in the sky. It could be said that they were existences that surpassed the ordinary world. Once one reached the Saint level and soared in the sky, the number of Saint level experts would no longer be limited.

"Success?" Zuo Ye walked over to Zhou Tian Cheng and asked.

"Yes!" I killed Bast in the end, and then I succeeded. "Zhou Tiancheng wore a bamboo hat and his face couldn't be seen clearly, but from his relaxed tone, one could tell how joyful he was.

"Alright!" Zuo Ye said to Du Yu, "Are there any more prisoners?"

"There are no more thieves left, only around twenty mercenaries," Du Yu said.

"Hm!" "All right," Zuo Ye said. "Take all that to the tent."

"Yes sir!" Du Yu waved his hand and the soldiers immediately went to lead the mercenaries.

"First find a place to familiarize yourself with your current strength, and then sort out the messy memories. If you forget something, then forget it. It will be troublesome if you don't sort it out later," Zuo Ye said.

"Yes sir!" Zhou Tian Zhang respectfully replied.

Zuo Ye then entered the tent and began to absorb the souls of the mercenaries. Zhou Tiancheng sat outside the tent and began to sort out the messy memories in his head.

Du Yu stood beside Zhou Tiancheng to protect him.

Not long after, Zuo Ye finished sucking up all the souls of the mercenaries, then organized all the scattered memories before walking out of the tent.

When Zuo Ye walked out of the tent, he saw Zhou Tiancheng and Du Yu waiting at the side.

"Hm!" Did you organize the memories? " Zuo Ye asked Zhou Tiancheng.

"Hm!" Yes. "Yes, I have," Zhou Tiancheng said.

"Company Leader Du, please send someone to take care of the corpse inside the tent," Zuo Ye said, "Old Wang, come with me."

"Yes sir!" Du Yu immediately agreed.

Zhou Tian Cheng then followed Zuo Ye to a deserted hill.

Reaching the top of an uninhabited mountain, Zuo Ye said to Zhou Tiancheng, "How does it feel to be a saint rank?"

"Very powerful. Three to five experts of the ninth rank are no match for me. And this is after I've just reached the Saint level." Zhou Tiancheng said.

"Hm!" Oh right, even Saint-rank can fly. Can you fly? " Zuo Ye said.

"Yes!" The most important thing for a Saint level expert is that their mental energy has already reached the level of being able to control objects, so if one uses mental energy to control objects on the Saint level expert's body, they can naturally fly, "Zhou Tian Cheng said," In the past, I also used wind magic to fly, but the amount of magic required to fly is quite a lot, and it is also difficult to sustain. However, from using magic to fly, it will take me a while to completely change my direction. "

"This transformation will take some time to adapt. Don't worry about it, just take it slowly," Zuo Ye said as he changed the topic, "I'm going to let Du Yucheng take down the Three Light Mercenaries stronghold and finish off the thieves there." In the battle, don't expose your strength. Just use the strength of the ninth rank. If you want to fly, use the original magic to fly. "

"Yes sir!" Zhou Tiancheng answered.

"Hm!" Also, to what extent would a saint be able to use spiritual force to control items? And what are the other elements of the Saint-rank? " Zuo Ye asked again.

Right here, Zuo Ye asked Zhou Tiancheng about cultivation.

After he finished talking about cultivation, Zuo Ye and Zhou Tian Cheng shared the experience of absorbing souls, and then they would learn from each other.

By the time Zuo Ye finished his talk, it was almost nightfall. The soldiers had already cleared up the battlefield, and Zuo Ye followed the army back to camp for the rest of the night. The next morning, the entire army once again charged the stronghold of the Tri-Light Bandit Group in a threatening manner.

The Triple Light Bandit Group's members had already heard about the loss of over a thousand Thieves and the capture of Bast from the returning Thieves. However, since Du Yu had already dispatched his cavalry to scout the surroundings of the Triple Light Bandit Group, it was impossible for the remnants of the Triple Light Bandit Group to abandon their stronghold and escape. Right now, there was only one path in front of them, and that was to defend the stronghold with their lives.

If they wanted to attack, they would have to climb the mountain. Of course, they could also let Zhou Tian Cheng fly directly up the mountain, but that would expose Zhou Tian Cheng's strength, which obviously wouldn't do.

? ? ? The army arrived at the base of the Tri-Light Bandit Group.

Zuo Ye rode a black horse, Zhou Tian Cheng, Du Yu and the others came down the mountain to check. The mountain was slanted, and the most dangerous place on the mountain was guarded by arrow towers, towers, and other defensive attacks. It was a typical dangerous place that was easy to defend, but no wonder the Three Light Bandit Group set up their base here.

However, the soldiers had already been sent out. Attacking was a must.

For the first attack, Zuo Ye and Zhou Tiancheng were involved. Zuo Ye and Zhou Tiancheng, along with dozens of soldiers, started charging towards one of the strongholds.

Soldiers were approaching the foothold, carrying huge shields. This foothold was built near the mountain. It had three towers. The soldiers shot arrows from the back of the tower. The arrows were so powerful that they made a crisp sound when they hit the huge shield. The soldiers couldn't help taking a step back, but they still blocked the arrows. After blocking the arrows, the soldiers continued to move forward against the huge shield.

Seeing that the arrows had no effect on him, he gave up on attacking with the arrows and switched to rolling wood. Several streaks of rolling wood were thrown down from the tower with astonishing power. Then, they rolled in front of the soldiers. The soldiers had already squatted down to place their shields on the ground, but the rolling logs still managed to shatter the shields, forcing several more soldiers to retreat before stopping.

These wooden logs caused more than 10 people to be injured.

"Retreat!" Zhou Tian Cheng immediately ordered, "Mr. Zuo! I must go up, or else our army will suffer heavy casualties. "

"Yes." "Let's go up!" Zuo Ye said.

After obtaining Zuo Ye's approval, Zhou Tian Cheng cast a wind magic for himself. Zhou Tian Cheng's body was wrapped up by a white ball of light and slowly rose from the ground to a tower.

Seeing this, the thieves on the tower all picked up their bows and arrows and shot them towards Zhou Tian Cheng. Dozens of arrows struck the white light barrier on Zhou Tian Cheng's body, but these attacks were obviously not enough to break through the defense of a rank 9 spell.

The thieves were still firing, and Zhou Tian Cheng released a large area of wind blades from above, and the wind blades that filled the sky countered a portion of the arrows shot towards Zhou Tian Cheng. More wind blades landed on the towers, and the thieves all hid, but there were still a few that were hit by the wind blades, causing them to scream in pain.

Zhou Tiancheng had long since covered his Battle Spirit. Seeing the Thieves' arrows stop, Zhou Tiancheng immediately took the chance to avoid the wind magic, and then fell onto the tower. With a wave of his long sword, the leader of the robbers in command landed right beside Zhou Tiancheng. Zhou Tiancheng fell down, and the leader grabbed his spear and stabbed viciously at Zhou Tiancheng. Zhou Tiancheng was unable to break Zhou Tiancheng's attack while in the air, and the Thief's long lance had already reached Zhou Tiancheng's body. And Zhou Tiancheng had obviously used his full strength to protect his body. A ray of sword light flashed in front of the bandit leader and he saw his headless body fall to the ground, while his consciousness became blurry ? Zhou Tian Cheng had cut off the bandit leader's head with one sword strike.

After killing the leader of the Thieves, Zhou Tian Cheng brandished his sword twice, and two Sword Qis flew out to kill the two Thieves that were guarding the tower. The remaining thieves around him were greatly alarmed, but the stairs to the tower were right behind him. If he wanted to go down, he would have to pass through the barrier that was Zhou Tian Cheng.

The Thieves that were forced into a corner roared and pounced towards Zhou Tian Cheng!

There were only twenty to thirty thieves in the tower, so how could these twenty to thirty normal thieves be Zhou Tiancheng's opponent? Zhou Tiancheng shook his sword, and dozens of wind blades shot out. Most of the bandits that charged forward died miserable deaths by the wind blades, and the remaining thieves were no match for Zhou Tiancheng. When the thieves on the other tower saw the situation, they all gave up defending the tower and ran away. Zuo Ye took the opportunity to lead his troops to occupy this foothold.

The first stronghold had been breached just like that.

Du Yu then charged towards the next stronghold. The next stronghold was much larger than this one, so there were around three hundred Thieves defending the stronghold. However, this stronghold had already received the news that their opponents had magic warriors who could fly, and there were more than a hundred of these high-ranked warriors who could stop them. Therefore, the leader of the bandits of this stronghold led the hundreds of thieves in this stronghold to give up on the stronghold and retreat to the next stronghold. By the time Du Yu had led his men to this foothold, the foothold was already empty. Du Yu had once again dispatched his men to easily occupy another foothold that was difficult to break through.

After that, Du Yu set off for his next stronghold. This place was very close to the top of the mountain where the robbers lived. The defenses here were better than in the first two positions: there were only three towers, but they were also distributed in key locations ? one across the road to the top of the mountain, the other on the top of the mountain, and the largest one later on the first, with an attack range no less than the first.

In addition, there were trenches built near the mountains. Behind the towers, there were even rolling stones and trees. There were even a few large equipment such as catapults on the hills on both sides of the road.

It could be said that the defensive facilities here were no longer inferior to that of a small military fortress.

This was also the last line of defense for the Thieves. As a result, almost all of the Thieves were here. Over a thousand of them were scattered around the area, and at a glance, the entire mountain was filled with people.

Du Yu and Zhou Tiancheng, who were well versed in the art of military combat, could tell at a glance that the defenses here were very tight. If they were to attack forcefully, they would definitely suffer heavy losses; even if all three thousand of them were exhausted, they might not be able to make it.
