"Hold on a bit longer, we are going to fight our way back soon!"

Many team leaders' chaotic and complicated shouts immediately filled the players' channels, making it lively yet noisy.

Since these team leaders were unsure whose shouts could be heard, everyone was attempting to contact the main force of the players.

Chuge hurriedly said, "We can hear you! Don't panic, one person speak! What exactly is happening over there?"

A voice came through, "We are at the Holy Mountain of the Beidi People! General Wei Huo led us here!"

This news quickly reached all the players' ears, and after a brief shock, everyone instantly understood.

Why was there that pillar of light? Why was there such abundant righteous energy?

Because General Wei Huo in this historical segment had also achieved that unprecedented great military feat: the Sealing of Wolf Dwelling Mountain!

...

Wolf Dwelling Mountain is the Holy Mountain of the Beidi People, who also have spiritual beliefs—they worship Eternal Heaven, and Wolf Dwelling Mountain is their sacrificial holy site.

From a modern perspective, it might be difficult to understand the significance of the act of Sealing Wolf Dwelling Mountain.

Some might simply think that this was just an ordinary superstitious act, compared to crushing the left sage king's forces and leaving the Southern Desert without a royal court. Sealing Wolf Dwelling Mountain might appear merely as an addition.

This is obviously a misinterpretation by modern people.

The true significance of Sealing Wolf Dwelling Mountain lies not only in the military victory but truly in the spiritual.

In the ancient concept, there was no materialism. Whether it's the Central Plains or the barbarians, all had beliefs, all worshipped the spirits and the Way of Heaven and Earth.

In the faith of the steppe people, mountains and rivers were sacred, and many esteemed mountains were viewed as the source of all wealth and fortune for the nomadic tribes.

The various sacrificial ceremonies of the Beidi People were symbols of the source of power for the Beidi royal court.

Wolf Dwelling Mountain is a Holy Mountain for the steppe tribes, and to perform the Central Plains' sealing rites on such a Holy Mountain was, for the Beidi People, an outright defiance of the heavens.

Thus, when General Wei Huo sealed Wolf Dwelling Mountain, what the Beidi People felt was not just the dejection of defeat but also a deep-seated fear from within: this fear was not of personal death, but of the cessation of heavenly mandate and the collapse of national destiny!

And this spiritual blow was not imaginary but had significant practical implications.

It would act like a mental seal, embedding itself in the Beidi people's minds generation after generation, thereby indirectly having a profound impact on the real world.

Thus, the despondent Beidi People would say: losing my Qilian Mountain causes my livestock to not multiply; losing my Yanzhi Mountain makes my women lose their luster.

And General Wei Huo's untimely young death added a strong mysterious aura to the act of sealing Wolf Dwelling Mountain, suggesting 'the secrets of heaven should not be revealed, altering fate reduces one's lifespan, defying heaven provokes celestial punishment.'

With his own strength, General Wei Huo destroyed a tribe's faith, broke a country's national destiny, effectively locking the entire Beidi in place, making it impossible for them to ever confront the dynasty of the Central Plains again.

Therefore, even in actual history, the act of Sealing Wolf Dwelling Mountain had a profound impact and was extoled by countless successors.

In this slice of history, on the battlefield between demons and order-restorers, the significance of this act became even more substantial!

...

The pillar of light grew stronger and brighter, the surrounding Demonic Qi melted away like snow, and even sunlight began to pierce through the dark clouds above.

And the players engaged in fierce battles with demon soldiers were surprised to find that their long spears could now pierce through the defenses of these demon soldiers!

This indicated that the Demonic Qi of the demons had been severely weakened!

After the sealing ceremony at Wolf Dwelling Mountain, the righteous Qi that General Wei Huo carried surged into the sky, sweeping away all the surrounding Demonic Qi, which naturally affected the demon soldiers who relied on this Demonic Qi for battle.

The players were instantly invigorated, vigorously resisting the advancing demon soldiers and stabilizing the front lines.

"So that's how it is, huh? General Wei Huo's missing army was actually a surprise force!"

"I knew the game developers had everything planned out; they couldn't really set us up to fight invincible mythological monsters from Ancient Times."

"Okay, I declare that the game designers have temporarily saved their own hide!"

There was a wave of jubilation in the players' battlefield channel.

Meng Yuan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and thought to himself, that was close, almost didn't make it.

He indeed had gambled, thinking that allowing General Wei Huo to continue his surprise attacks in the north might have some unexpected effects, but he never imagined it would have such a significant impact.

This historical moment's fate had been rewritten by General Wei Huo!

And because of this, what was originally the demons' home ground had now been turned into the Reclaimers' home ground.

Although Demon Lord Chi You had brought a vast amount of Demonic Qi from the historical slice of Ancient Times and completely overpowered the players in terms of strength, now, with the waxing and waning of both sides' power, this advantage was gradually disappearing!

"Damn it, what's going on!"

In the sky, Chi You's enormous figure roared incessantly, unable to comprehend how that column of light in the far rear had appeared.

It had made countless preparations to confront the Reclaimers head-on.

By using a large amount of Demonic Qi, it had sealed off the entire battlefield so that as the Reclaimers' power continued to extend into the black fog, they would keep getting eroded by the Demonic Qi and gradually lose their sanity;

The vast battlefield also housed many native Beidi warriors, who were equally valiant and adept at fighting, enough to handle ordinary attacks;

Chi You also led four great demons in a fierce front-line assault on the army led by the Reclaimers, putting the Reclaimers under tremendous pressure and making it difficult for them to engage in any schemes.

Even under such circumstances, it still got its base stolen!

In this historical slice, the demons were to incarnate through the Beidi people, but now, with the Reclaimers breaching the Beidi's Holy Mountain, Wolf Dwelling Mountain, and transforming the gathered Demonic Qi there into righteous Qi through the sealing ceremony, the entire historical slice's fate had been reversed, causing irreversible and substantial impact on the battlefield!

"All great demons! At all costs, eliminate the Reclaimers' army!"

Demon Lord Chi You roared furiously, as the battlefield situation took a drastic turn for the worse for the demons, but Chi You was not willing to concede defeat so readily, nor could it possibly flee immediately like Feilian.

It was, after all, the mighty Demon Lord, leading four great demons from a historical slice of Ancient Times to annihilate the Reclaimers, only to be routed?

That was not possible!

Not only would its prestige as the Demon Lord plummet, but worse yet, a large amount of Demonic Qi couldn't be taken away and would be transformed into righteous Qi by the Reclaimers. With such ebbing and surging powers, the likelihood of winning the next battle became even slimmer.

Chi You's gaze swept over the vast battlefield, seemingly wanting to discern something different on those tiny figures akin to ants.

Because it was well aware that its only remaining option to win this war was to find that Reclaimer and eradicate him!
