Chapter 350 The Cruel Military Selection
The bustling 3000 warriors and beasts, led by several true gods, headed directly toward the massive stone archway ahead.
Gu Ce vaguely remembered that during the selection process for the army, it seemed that one had to fight as hard as possible and try to show their abilities in order to be selected into a special legion.
Being able to join a special legion is naturally much better than being in the regular army.
However, usually, out of 3000 people selected, not even one might be able to enter the special legion.
"Brother Cangwu, please stay closer to me later," Di Hu said.
The two followed the tide and entered the stone archway.
Boom~~~~
Upon entering the stone archway, time and space instantly shifted, and one found oneself in a vast and desolate land, the ground covered entirely in sand.
Gu Ce looked around and could vaguely see a radius of hundreds of millions of kilometers around him, beyond which lay darkness.
This is a desolate and barren desert.
"boom!"
An invisible pressure descended, enveloping the entire desert.
All the warriors and beasts looked up.
Above was a one-horned man wearing black streamlined armor, his cold golden eyes looking down. Suddenly, those golden eyes simultaneously emitted a beam of golden light!
"Boom!" "Boom!"
Two golden beams of light descended upon the desert in an instant, curving and casually circling among the 3000 warriors and beasts... Each beam of light encircled 1500 warriors and beasts. Immediately afterward, the group of warriors and beasts encircled on the left were enveloped in a hazy red glow, while the group encircled on the right were enveloped in a yellow glow.
An invisible pressure enveloped them.
Everyone present was terrified.
The pressure wasn't particularly strong... but the natural aura of superiority and the trembling of its own divine power made everyone understand that this being in the sky was not a true god, but a higher level... a Void True God!
The true Void God is stronger than the Lava Demon God.
After all, the Lava Demon God does not possess secret techniques or supreme treasures; he only has power equivalent to that of a Void God and cannot fully unleash the strength of a Void God.
Feeling the imposing aura of the one-horned man above him, Gu Ce sighed inwardly.
"You, split into two camps," the one-horned man roared, looking down at the crowd. "Kill each other. Kill your opponents, and when I tell you to stop, those who survive will join the army. If you have the strength, feel free to use it... If any of you are exceptionally talented, you may be selected for a special legion!"
"Begin!" the one-horned man shouted, and then he was enveloped in black light and disappeared into the darkness.
……
The warriors and beasts of the two factions on this desolate desert were shrouded in red and yellow light respectively, and at this moment, they couldn't help but feel a surge of killing intent.
The battle is about to begin.
Di Hu was lucky enough to be assigned to the same camp as Gu Ce. He then said to Gu Ce, "Brother Cang Wu, you don't need to worry about me. Go and fight. With your strength, you have a great chance of joining the special legion."
"Okay." Gu Ce nodded slightly. "Be careful."
"Don't worry, Brother Cangwu, I have this armor protecting me, I'll be fine," Dihu said confidently.
"kill!"
"Roar~~"
The warriors and beasts of the two camps roared instantly, transforming into streaks of light and lightning, each exerting their utmost efforts to kill the other.
Close combat!
Limbs and blood flew everywhere, then quickly merged back together as the powerful figures from both factions fought a frenzied battle.
"kill!"
Gu Ce's Azure Sword appeared in his hand, and he immediately went berserk, killing the warriors and beasts of the 'Red Light' faction in front of him. As long as he saw the red light, he would just kill!
Almost every sword strike could take down a warrior or beast from an opposing force!
This spacetime is extremely stable; even with so many universe lords fighting, it hasn't caused the slightest spatial ripple.
The warriors and beasts who chose to join the army were all at least at the top level of the fourth rank, with most being at the fifth rank or even at the top level of the fifth rank.
In fact, there are quite a few powerful individuals with sixth-tier combat strength, just like that giant python beast from before!
However... when they faced Gu Ce, they were almost no different.
Below the sixth-tier combat power, without the supreme treasure armor, facing Gu Ce would be a matter of one-hit kill!
If it's a sixth-tier combat power, it would only take a few more sword strikes to easily resolve the situation.
Gu Ce didn't even use any secret techniques. Relying solely on his movement skills, he was able to slaughter like a god of death on the chaotic battlefield without even getting a drop of blood on his body!
Yes, slaughter!
While the others were fighting for their lives, Gu Ce seemed nonchalant, as if this military selection was nothing more than a game.
"kill!"
"kill!"
The scene was chaotic, but an open space appeared around Gu Ce. All the enemies from the opposing camps subconsciously avoided Gu Ce. Although the battle had only been going on for a few minutes, dozens of universe masters had already fallen at Gu Ce's hands.
Extremely terrifying!
Even when they faced a true god, they wouldn't have such a high casualty rate. This is due to the increase in Gu Ce's strength during the eight million years in the cosmic sea!
With the help of the inheritance space and by comprehending the secrets of the "Sword" manual, Gu Ce's swordsmanship and movement techniques underwent a qualitative transformation.
This wasn't even Gu Ce's full effort.
The eighth-order secret technique he had vaguely created had not yet been used, and the treasure he had only used was the Azure Sword. He had not even burned his divine power. Relying on his swordsmanship and movement, Gu Ce had already gained strength that surpassed all others.
Such strength, so conspicuous, naturally attracted the attention of the one-horned man in the sky.
However, he remained silent for the time being, simply watching quietly.
Clearly, Gu Ce has demonstrated that he is fully qualified to join the special legion!
However, it wasn't anything particularly astonishing. It was only because the warriors and beasts of the same batch as Gu Ce were of relatively average strength that Gu Ce's strength was highlighted.
After all, under Gu Ce's deliberate control, the strength he displayed was probably only at the top of the sixth rank, close to the seventh rank.
……
The battle was fierce, and as time passed, warriors and beasts fell one after another.
Gu Ce had already stopped fighting. Wherever he went, the enemies would automatically make way for him, and they had no intention of surrounding and killing him.
After all, the number of people on both sides was roughly the same at the beginning, but towards the end of the battle, it had become one-sided.
Under Gu Ce's fierce fighting, the Red Light camp was clearly at a great disadvantage.
"stop!"
A powerful pressure descended instantly.
If the previous pressure, though lofty, was merely a gentle breeze, then this pressure... was like an endless mountain pressing down. With a deafening roar, all the warriors of the cosmic lords who were fighting were forced to their knees, utterly powerless to resist.
The power of the Void God is terrifying!
The one-horned man descended from the sky and looked down.
At this moment, there are 971 survivors remaining below.
"You're quite good," the one-horned man said to Gu Ce. "You can join... the Azure Dragon Army!"
The Azure Dragon Army is one of the special legions of the Eastern Army.
The surrounding warriors and beasts looked at Gu Ce with envy, but they also knew that Gu Ce's strength was far superior to theirs, so it was normal for him to enter the special legion.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!"
"Hurry up and go."
In this desolate desert, a colossal archway appeared out of nowhere, from which three true gods emerged, shouting orders. The surviving warriors and beasts obediently followed, for the next round of selection was imminent.
"you."
One of the True God soldiers, dressed in dark red armor and sporting a pair of sharp horns, looked at Gu Ce and spoke.
"Come with me, I'll take you to the Azure Dragon Army."
"Yes," Gu Ce replied.
Looking back, Gu Ce saw that Di Hu was still alive and had successfully joined the army. He nodded slightly to him and then followed the True God, taking the lead in walking out through the archway.
……
The Eastern Army camp was so large it seemed to stretch endlessly.
Following the one-eyed true god, Gu Ce flew and used wormhole teleportation, spending about half a day before arriving at an incredibly tall hall, where human and beast figures were everywhere.
"Wait here for a moment," said the horned god.
Gu Ce looked over curiously.
This is the military supplies depot within the military camp.
Many soldiers and strange beasts from various armies are coming and going here.
soon.
Inside the main hall of the military depot, the Sharp-Horned True God emerged, and a beam of light from his hand landed in front of Gu Ce.
"Although you are merely a Lord of Laws, you joined the Azure Dragon Army, so you were able to obtain a True God-level battle armor—'A set of True God-level Azure Dragon Armor'—but it is merely the Azure Dragon Armor."
"Alright, now come with me to the Azure Dragon Army."
Gu Ce nodded slightly and put away the Azure Dragon Armor.
This thing is naturally no match for the Chaos Golden Armor, but that doesn't matter. The Chaos Golden Armor is a mechanical armor, one of the pinnacle products of the mechanical style in the Wu Kingdom.
At most, it's just putting on a layer of Azure Dragon Armor over the Chaos Golden Armor.
Swish!
Gu Ce quickly recognized the Azure Dragon Armor as his master, and the armor transformed into a set of azure scales on his body, turning Gu Ce into a strange beast resembling an azure dragon.
……
And then...
Following the horned true god, Gu Ce arrived at a basin located in the mountains.
Within the basin, towering, robust trees stand, some with diameters reaching tens of millions of kilometers. The entire basin itself is light-years in diameter, and one can see streaks of green as far as the eye can see.
These are all soldiers of the Azure Dragon Army!
"These are the new recruits of your Azure Dragon Army!" the Sharp-Horned True God roared, his voice booming. "Assign them to the first battalion and seventh squad!"
After setting Gu Ce down, the Sharp-Horned True God left in the blink of an eye.
Following closely behind—
In the distance, figures flashed and teleported in.
Although teleportation is not possible within the military camp, it is clearly possible within the territory of the Azure Dragon Army.
More than a dozen figures teleported over! Among them were humanoid creatures and strange beasts, all staring at Gu Ce and sizing him up.
"Newcomer, state your name and what you are good at."
At the very front, a tall, thin man spoke up.
