My Cultivation Starting from Archery

"Boom!"

Just as the "rebel army" sounded the retreat.

Chen Sansi and the martial artists of the Ling Family were still engaged in combat.

And.

As the fight dragged on longer, the martial cultivators of the Ling Family were astonished to find that Chen Sansi was not in a hurry at all. Even if the opponent knew he couldn't resolve the battle in a short time, he showed no signs of anxiety; instead, he fought more freely, not even using his full strength.

This is...

He's using them to practice!

Using the Gui Water Demon-Slaying Array for training!

Martial cultivation and magic cultivation are different.

For magic cultivators, it's best to meditate quietly.

Whereas martial cultivators are the opposite; as long as there's ample spiritual energy, actual combat can stimulate the meridians more, speed up the circulation, and awaken the shrine faster.

"Outrageous!"

Ling Ling felt deeply humiliated, so she took out a plethora of spirit stones once more to enhance the Gui Water Demon-Slaying Array's power and finally regained the upper hand.

However.

At this point, the rebel army had already fully retreated after sounding the retreat.

Chen Sansi also had no intent to linger in battle, constantly defending against attacks while retreating on the leaf-shaped flying device, disappearing rapidly into the fog.

"Stop!"

Senior sister Ling Ling brandished her sword to pursue.

But among them, a middle-aged man with a long beard raised his hand, signaling the clan members not to chase too deeply.

Several young martial artists exchanged glances, all feeling some fear. Despite being the same realm, the seven of them could not kill him even when forming a formation; it was only by taking advantage of the favorable terrain and endlessly utilizing the Luo Xiao River beneath their feet that they could restrain him. Otherwise, they might have been slaughtered one by one.

"Just stall him!"

The middle-aged man said: "Ling Ling, I know you want revenge for Ling Yun, but don't rush. We only need to stall Chen Sansi until we defeat his subordinates. Then, with more people joining to form a great formation, we will surely be able to easily eliminate him."

"Fourth Uncle, I understand."

Ling Ling sheathed her sword.

The seven of them were all of the True Power Warriors in the Ling Family's three generations.

This time coming to the Eastern Continent to partake in the conflict, it was to find a new foothold for their clan.

After the battle.

The court began to tally the losses.

"Governor, both our army and the enemy's have suffered losses."

An Assistant General reported: "In this surprise attack, the rebel army gained no advantage."

"Good!"

Prince Qi exclaimed excitedly: "We anticipated Chen Sansi's fire attack; now even the surprise attack can't affect us! Next, once the fog clears, we will march forward and devour them whole!"

"The fog~"

Zhou Rong came to the deck with a wine cup, gazing at the vast expanse of white and mused gently: "I fear prolonged darkness brings many dreams."

On water, advancing.

The greatest fear is losing direction.

Especially in the position of the rebel army, if they retreat, there would be many tributaries and lakes. If unable to discern the enemy's movements, charging in could easily lead to ambush.

Ordinarily, it's best to wait for the fog to clear before making advancement plans.

But Zhou Rong nevertheless ordered: "Pass down the orders, advance tomorrow."

"Not waiting for the fog to dissipate?"

Prince Qi said: "Lord Zhou's strategy is..."

"It's to use motion to counter stillness."

Nie Yuan chimed in: "Forcing the opponent to deploy whatever tactics they have."

...

"Damn it!"

New Dynasty Water Fort.

Wang Zhi cursed incessantly as he ordered medicine to be applied and bandaged on his almost-bone-breaking sword wound: "Lackey! That surname Nie is used to being a lackey for the house slaves with three names!"

"Injuring the bones, he certainly didn't go easy."

Cheng Wei clicked his tongue: "Looks like the old third harbors resentment for us driving them out of Beiliang!"

"General Wang, what about the ship?"

Qi Cheng approached, asking: "The Commander orders that after this raid, you must bring back a medium to large enemy warship."

"Don't mention it, the old third chased me down; where was the time to seize a ship?!"

Wang Zhi raised his knife, saying: "Tonight, tonight I'll take another group there to try."

"The ship is here!"

Amid the conversation.

Wei Xuan's voice sounded as he navigated a warship flying the Great Sheng Army Flag slowly into the Water Fort.

The enemy's large ship was protected by a Water Control Array.

Wei Xuan had killed inside before the formation started, which took quite a lot of effort.

Wei Xuan asked: "Lord Xiao Qi, see if this ship suffices?!"

"As long as there's a Water Control Array!"

Qi Cheng pointed into the distance: "It's tiring but please take the ship personally to the Commander, Wei the great hero!"

"Alright!"

Wei Xuan immediately ordered the soldiers to row towards the indicated dock on the lake waters.

Luo Xiao River is the lifeblood of the Central Plains, nurturing millions of people, essentially the source of everything, with countless tributaries connected to small rivers, and lakes are innumerable.

Small depressions form ponds, larger ones form pools; smaller and deeper ones are called deep waters, large and deep ones are called abysses; broad and shallow ones are called marshes, broad and deep ones are called lakes; lakes connected to lakes are called bays, bays connected to bays make the great swamp;

Just at the location of Chibi, retreating dozens of miles, the above terrain and water formations are all present.

After the battle ended, Chen Sansi flew into the Eastern Lakes, and at the entrance of the great lake, well-prepared warships guarded the entry.

Soon afterward, Wei Xuan navigated the captured five-tooth warship into the lake.

"Just leave the ship here."

Xu Wencai commanded from a small boat.

"Alright!"

Wei Xuan immediately led the soldiers aboard to leave on a small boat.

In the vast Eastern Lake, soon only the White Robe and Wo Long remained.

"That Zhou Lang indeed took precautions against the fire attack."

Xu Wencai recalled what was seen today and clicked his tongue: "This 'Water Control Array' not only can resist flames but also serves as a shield of water, floating in space outside the enemy's warship; truly a troublesome challenge!"
