Chapter 1780
Author: Blanco Burn
"They won't be satisfied by losing a battle. They'll send more troops. We need to set up an ambush ahead of time, right along this defensive line!"

Xayne drew a horizontal line on the map. This area was the border with the Tri-Lion Empire. It was the most dangerous spot, the enemy's most vigilant location.

Setting up an ambush here was extremely difficult, potentially putting themselves in the enemy's crosshairs.

"Everyone, prepare your rations and gear. We need to lay in and wait here. We will catch them off guard and crush their morale!"

Even though it was a risky tactic, Xayne insisted on pushing it to the limit, where his soldiers would face immense danger. The greater the risk, the greater the reward. If they successfully ambushed the enemy, it would be a devastating blow.

Only Xayne could devise such a bold strategy. He trusted his soldiers because they were the Northern Plains army, capable of executing such tactics. Other commanders wouldn't dare gamble their soldiers' liv

    They were all terrified of the King of the North. Just the thought of Xayne's fearsome visage made them tremble.Previously, they had dispatched 300,000 of Arnold’s troops. They surrounded the Northern Plains army to destroy them. Everyone thought it was a guaranteed victory. Unexpectedly, they suffered a crushing defeat, and even Arnold was killed in a single charge by Xayne."Are you telling me that none of your men dare to face Xayne? Do they not want to win?" Barney looked at them in disbelief.After a long silence, a general from the Fran Empire stood up. "We once organized a coalition to launch a surprise attack on the Northern Plains army, but we failed. We want revenge. I have a great general, Thor, named after the god of thunder. He's known for his prowess in ground combat, earning the nickname Thunderer.""I believe our Thunderer can take on the King of the North. What do you say, General Thor?"A tall, muscular man stepped forward, waving to the assembly. "Hello everyon

    Thor sat among his troops as they arrived at the defensive line, and he mobilized everyone to start fortifying."Man, it's freezing here. If we don't set up strongholds, we might not even be able to move our feet," Thor complained while rubbing his hands for warmth as he arrived at the frontline.If they could establish strong points here, it would lay the foundation for a coalition victory. They would push forward continuously and provide the coalition with supply and rest areas, becoming a haven for them.Feeling invigorated by this thought, Thor stood at the front of the defense line. He began to undress, planning to relieve himself in the wind for a bit of a morale boost.However, as soon as he dropped his pants, a bullet pierced his forehead. He still had a smile on his face as he fell backward, lifeless.The coalition troops were stunned. They turned to see their commander had been shot dead by a sniper."Is this guy an idiot? He is dressed so conspicuously as a general, an

    After losing two battles, they were at a loss for how to deal with Xayne."Take a break for now," Barney said while rubbing his temples wearily. "Let's not get too disheartened. We still have enough resources to put into this fight. Go back and rest well."This strategy was Barney's idea. The fact that the enemy broke it so quickly was a significant blow to his pride."Is this King of the North really that formidable? He seems to predict every move and controls the battlefield with such precision."Barney's confidence was waning as Xayne's uncanny foresight eroded it.Just then, an assistant said, "I think something's off here. It's very likely someone tipped off the King of the North, giving him time to prepare.""You mean they had prior insights? Are you suggesting there's a spy among us?" Barney asked."Think about it. Arnold died on the battlefield because they found our base. If no one tipped them off, how could the King of the North's troops have known Arnold's location an

    Meanwhile, two figures were dressed in white on a distant snowy mountain peak miles away. They stood against the snowy backdrop.One of them, an elderly man with snow-white hair and a ruddy complexion, stood at the peak. His hands were behind his back, and his eyes gleamed with a piercing light.Behind him was a man in his thirties with a serious face, sharp eyebrows, and eyes like stars. He was exuding a chilling aura. These two stood on the mountaintop, their presence radiating an overwhelming coldness, adding a sharp, murderous intent to the snowy expanse.Xayne frowned as he held Red Rose in his arms. A dozen silver needles shot out from his palm with a flick of his hand. They spiraled like silver serpents, piercing into various acupoints on Red Rose's body to staunch the bleeding.Red Rose's face turned pale. She looked at the enraged Xayne and said weakly, "Supreme Commander, I'm sorry…""Don't speak. Rest now. Leave the rest to me," Xayne said softly. He handed Red Rose t

    "Get down! Everyone get down!"Almost instantly, the towering snowstorm, dozens of meters high, drowned out these shouts. The entire snowy landscape was engulfed in a blinding flurry of white as it completely buried the allied troops.Meanwhile, Xayne's battle with the two figures raged on. The younger man was clutching his chest, staring intensely at Xayne from several dozen meters away with a pale face."Step back! I will take him down!" the old man commanded, his eyes blazing with murderous intent."Master!" the younger man protested as he frowned."Step back! You are no match for him! Do not hold me back!" the old man insisted.Reluctantly, the younger man retreated several meters, glaring at Xayne maliciously. Inside, he seethed with anger and frustration, feeling it was a missed opportunity to fight the King of the North.The old man's eyes were like cold steel as he locked onto Xayne. "King of the North, surrender now! Today, I will cut you down on this snowy field!"Xay

    In an instant, the old man lunged at Xayne. His longsword aimed straight for Xayne's heart. Xayne did not retreat. Instead, he charged forward. He launched his Ravenclaw Dagger, which whirled through the air, brimming with lethal intent.Within seconds, they had exchanged over a dozen blows as loud clangs were heard, neither gaining the upper hand. Their silhouettes darted across the snowy terrain, their movements whipping up fierce snowstorms.Xayne and the old man clashed fists, generating a thunderous explosion that unleashed a terrifying shockwave. Immediately, the snow-covered peaks around them began to fracture, and the snow cascaded down like a white deluge, pouring into the valley below.The allied forces, several kilometers away and just getting back on their feet, saw the oncoming avalanche."Ah! Avalanche! Run!""Move it! Get out of here!"The soldiers fled as panic ensued. They abandoned their gear in their desperate bid to escape. However, the avalanche roared down

    Xayne stood quite a distance away, holding the gleaming Ravenclaw Dagger. His eyes focused and cold as he stared at the elder. Then, he charged forward again as his aura was fully unleashed.Seeing this, the elder frowned and roared, "Arrogant whelp! You're courting death!"As his words were spoken, the elder also rushed toward Xayne, with anger and resolve burning in his eyes. Never before had someone dared to defy him like this, repeatedly launching such bold attacks.The next moment, as a swish sound was heard, an arm holding a long sword was severed. It flew through the air before falling to the ground, splattering the snow with blood."Ahhh!" The elder clutched his bleeding stump, screaming in agony as he retreated dozens of meters, disbelief etched on his face as he looked at his severed arm lying in the snow. He then glanced at Xayne, who casually wiped blood from his face, his Ravenclaw Dagger dripping with fresh blood."No! This is impossible!"The elder was terrified. I

    On the other side, Xayne pursued relentlessly, cornering the elder within a valley with no escape routes on either side. The elder stopped in his tracks, turning to face Xayne with a menacing glare as he slowly advanced, each step echoing in the icy silence."King of the North, I advise you not to seek your own death!" the elder hissed as his voice was cold and threatening. "I am one of the three chief elders of the Lunisolar Circle! If you dare kill me here, the Lunisolar Circle will not spare you! Our group's master will personally emerge to avenge me, and your thirty thousand Dragonbreakers Legion will be buried with you!""Is that so?" Xayne replied coldly as his eyes gleamed with icy resolve. A smirk played at the corner of his mouth. "So, the Lunisolar Circle is hidden within these snowy mountains?"The elder frowned and nodded. "Indeed! So, I advise you not to overestimate yourself. If I return alive, you will be safe."Xayne chuckled darkly. "The truth lies within the range

    Arthura watched in horror as the Ravenclaw Dagger shot toward his chest. Desperate, he raised the Sword of Victory to block the attack. But in the next instant, the dagger pierced straight through Excalibur, continuing unhindered as it stabbed deep into his chest. His eyes widened in shock."T-This… you… how do you have the power of a Tri-Radiant Commander?!" Even in death, Arthura could not comprehend what had just happened. Xayne was clearly only a Senior Radiant Commander. It was impossible for his strength to suddenly leap by two whole levels.Xayne's cold voice rang out. "You don't need to know."The Ravenclaw Dagger spun in mid-air, then shot forward again, piercing Arthura's back. In an instant, his body exploded into a mist of blood, vanishing into the wind. Even his holy armor shattered into countless fragments, scattering through the sky. Four Radiant Commander powerhouses, the strongest warriors of Eukrania, were all eradicated within mere seconds.The crowd below fell to t

    Xayne had been using them to test his formations. A mere Senior Radiant Commander had toyed with four Bi-Radiant Commanders as if they were nothing more than training dummies. It was the ultimate insult—especially for Alovandrio. In his thousand-year reign, not a single soul had ever dared to treat him as mere practice during a battle. Yet before thousands of witnesses, Xayne had humiliated him without hesitation."So, that's all you've got? Now… it's my turn." Xayne clasped his hands behind his back, his tone calm and utterly arrogant.Andrea felt cold sweat trickle down his spine. Thank the heavens he had not interfered. If he had, he would already be dead. Xayne was no saint.The battlefield fell into an eerie silence. Arthura hesitated, his thoughts in turmoil. 'Xayne… hadn't even been injured? Since when had a Senior Radiant Commander become this powerful?' He and three other Bi-Radiant Commanders had used every technique at their disposal, yet they had failed to even scratch t

    For Andrea, this decision was equivalent to severing ties with the great families of Eukrania—perhaps even facing exile from the Keil family itself. But no matter how much he tried to convince himself, he simply could not act. Xayne was nothing like he had been on the open sea. Many of the terrifying techniques Andrea had personally witnessed back then had yet to be used.He refused to believe that Xayne had been truly cornered. Even though he could not understand why Xayne was not fighting back, he knew Xayne's true power was beyond imagination—especially that mysterious golden barrier. It had the power to block almost any attack in existence. If Xayne truly wished to, he would not need to endure this siege at all."Andrea! If you don't act today, you'll be the greatest traitor in Eukrania!" Arthura roared.Andrea clenched his jaw, closing his eyes momentarily. But even then, he could not bring himself to move. Even if it meant being branded a traitor, he would not take that risk.As

    "What?!" Dakura broke into a cold sweat. His body flickered into a blood-red shadow, retreating hundreds of meters in an instant. Below, the gathered warriors stood in stunned silence. No matter how one looked at it, Xayne should have died. Yet reality had defied all odds. First, Arthura’s Sword of Victory had been repelled. Then, Dakura’s Blood Sword had been instantly dissolved. It was incomprehensible.The Lion King halted his blade mid-strike, eyes locked onto the red glow surrounding Xayne. He was unharmed. But everyone could see that Xayne was completely trapped. He could not escape the time lock. He could not fight back. At this moment, he was a lamb awaiting slaughter. All they needed to do was break through that red glow, and victory would be theirs."Die!" Alovandrio lunged, thrusting his silver spear forward. It streaked across the battlefield like a comet, aiming straight for Xayne’s heart. A deafening impact shook the heavens. Sparks erupted from the clash, and the prote

    The moment the colossal sword fell, the entire mountain range trembled violently. The towering peak split cleanly in two, a massive chasm nearly a kilometer wide ripping through the center, sending avalanches roaring down its slopes. Every spectator shuddered involuntarily.Within the glowing barrier, Xayne was aging. His jet-black hair turned silver in the blink of an eye. A sharp realization struck him—it was a time-lock formation. Beneath his feet, a massive circular pattern flickered to life, shifting between red and white. A yin-yang symbol spun in an endless cycle, draining his vitality at an alarming rate. A wave of deathly stillness spread through his body. At the same time, from the center of his chest, a pure white light burst forth—it was "The Cycle of Life and Death." The same force he had once sensed in Kulun.The White Dragon's Heart unleashed an unprecedented surge of power. No matter how time tried to erode him, the lifeless aura surrounding him preserved his remainin

    Every warrior who reached the level of a Bi-Radiant Commander had already mastered their signature killing techniques, each more formidable than the last. They all carried countless tricks up their sleeves, refined through years of battle. Now, as an endless swarm of blood-red phantoms filled the sky, Xayne frowned. He had read about this technique in the Heavenly Tome—the Blood Phantom technique.On the surface, it appeared as a mass of shifting shadows, but the real body was hidden somewhere within. It was both an advanced illusion and a deadly attack. A single misstep would be fatal. There existed only one way to counter it—one chance to strike the real body. If he failed, the consequences would be dire. The sea of blood-red figures surged toward Xayne, their forms flickering and blurring as they closed in.Nearby, Alovandrio and Arthura exchanged amused glances, entertained by the spectacle before them. They both knew the terror of Dakura’s Blood Phantom technique. Even they wou

    Four Bi-Radiant Commanders attacked at once. Their killing intent surged, shaking the heavens. Even a veteran Radiant Commander would have found escape impossible—let alone Xayne, a mere Senior Radiant Commander who had just broken through. Countless deathly auras flooded the battlefield, an unstoppable force of nature descending upon him.Yet, he did not flinch. Not even a flicker of fear crossed his face. With calm precision, he popped a crimson pill into his mouth. The moment it dissolved, a drastic shift occurred within his body. A silver glow enveloped him, his very presence merging seamlessly with the world itself.The Spiritual Blood Pill—a legendary treasure of White Blossom Mountain—was truly extraordinary. In mere moments, Xayne’s strength skyrocketed to the level of a Tri-Radiant Commander. Yet, the Lion King and the others failed to notice the transformation. Their overwhelming confidence blinded them to the storm brewing before them.Xayne lifted his hand, the Ravenclaw Da

    Xayne raised his hand, and the Ravenclaw Dagger ignited in a dazzling glow, surging forward to meet the incoming golden light. The moment the two forces collided, the entire snow-capped mountain trembled violently. A devastating shockwave erupted, triggering an avalanche that roared down the slopes, swallowing everything in its path.In midair, Xayne and the Lion King clashed. A golden radiance burst from Xayne's body, transforming into an enormous Eastern dragon. With a thunderous roar, the dragon surged forward, its cry shaking the heavens. The golden lion and the Eastern dragon intertwined in a battle of legends, their divine energies colliding with devastating force. Each strike tore through the skies, sending shockwaves rippling across the battlefield.Below, the spectators stood frozen in utter disbelief. It had been centuries since Radiant Commanders last fought, and even then, their battles left nothing but ruin in their wake. Yet today, a Senior Radiant Commander and a Bi-Ra

    A suffocating pressure filled the air, pressing down like an iron weight. Andrea’s heart pounded as he hurriedly spoke, his voice edged with urgency. "Honored elders! I mean no disrespect—I only seek reconciliation! The champions of the outer battleground are returning. If—""If?" The Lion King interrupted with a cold sneer, his tone laced with contempt."If the champions of the outer battleground return, the first person they will kill is you!" King Arthura’s voice was like a blade, sharp and merciless. "You stood by and let Eukrania’s royal bloodline be butchered! Do you even realize the weight of your crime?" His gaze bore into Andrea, unyielding and filled with contempt. "When Xayne first set foot in Eukrania, you should have driven him out at all costs! Instead, you welcomed the wolf into the fold. Worse still, you dared to speak in his defense. Calling you a traitor would be an understatement!"Cold sweat dripped from Andrea’s face. Under the piercing gazes of four Radiant Comma
