The Eastern Wilderness is actually very large, not only encompassing the Great Han Dynasty and the surrounding countries, but also a large area in the north.

It's just that the environment in those places is too harsh for life. Therefore, for the Great Han Dynasty and the surrounding countries, from the Jibei Plain to the south, the land they live in can be regarded as a wilderness in the east.

In the same way, for them, the alien race in the north is a nomadic people.

And then for the nomads, they also have enemies in the north, which are the orcs.

Orcs are a wilder race than the so-called barbarians, full of muscles, and what they like most is to fight and war. They have a strong fighting force, fortunately there are many internal factions and are not united.

Because of the existence of the hot land in the northern desert in the past, it was difficult for the orcs to go south, but once the red star was about to appear, the temperature of the hot place would drop. When it is at a minimum, the orcs will be able to come.

In the past, with the strong combat power of the nomads, they could keep the orcs out of the northern desert, but now they can't.

In the battle of the Deer River Valley, 200,000 elites were drowned, and it was difficult for the nomads to resist the orcs as in previous years. Once that group of orcs is allowed to rush into the hinterland, what the consequences will be, needless to say, it will definitely be the disaster of the extinction of the dead race.

Now that the orcs have begun to move south, the vanguard has fought them several times, and they are still strong.

The former khan of the nomadic people, the father of the second prince, and the only martial arts powerhouse of the Northland people, also died in a battle. When the orc army returns, it will be unstoppable.

The second prince was ordered to take over the throne in danger, and there was nothing to do, coupled with the persuasion of the envoys of Yongguo and Dongyi, he finally chose to move south to fight this behemoth in the south.

Unfortunately, it was another tragic battle. The army suffered heavy casualties, although there were still more than 100,000 troops, but most of them were old, weak, sick and disabled, and such Jiuding City was meaningless to them. Just wait for the army of the Great Han Dynasty to come again, and attack Tongling Pass from end to end, and there is no way to live.

And in the near future, the orcs will drive straight into the south and march south......

Thinking about all this, for the sake of the survival of the clan, the second prince finally chose to surrender...... Even the person who accepts the surrender is a nightmare for his life, a demon he wants to kill when he sleeps.

Unexpectedly, Qin Shaofu was a little surprised, but not very surprised.

When he followed Jiang Yan and Zhang Qiyu to the north, he thought about this question, why didn't the orc clan go south, but he just thought about it, and didn't go deeper, he didn't expect to face this problem now.

Unlike other people from the Great Han Dynasty, he had seen orcs, although he didn't know what happened later because he was too deep, and he came out of the temple intact, but he would never think that orcs were bad.

Just by looking at them, you can feel the extreme power from them.

There may not be many strong martial arts masters among the orcs, and they may not even be as strong as half of the Great Han Dynasty, but they definitely have a lot of martial artists in the Qi Sea Realm and the True Soul Realm, and they can even form an army of True Soul Warriors like the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow.

The southward movement of such an army is by no means good news for the already war-torn Great Han Dynasty, and no one knows what will happen.

This matter can only be said later, Qin Shaofu asked the second prince to station the army of nomads outside the city, and then asked the surviving officials of Jiuding City to start reporting what happened here, and at the same time asked people to go to Tongling Pass to ask for support.

When Yao Qiang came over with the 3,000 soldiers and horses, he was also frightened by the development of things.

Qin Shaofu originally wanted to wait for the explosion to end and take these 3,000 soldiers and horses to attack the enemy army, but he didn't expect to become a guard directly after coming back.

3,000 soldiers and horses, guarding more than 100,000 prisoners, especially after the arrival of girls and children, became two or three hundred thousand, and every soldier was tense and trembling every day.

Qin Shaofu was not in a hurry to return to the capital, there was something wrong with his divine martial soul.

At the end of the battle that day, that night, his divine martial soul suddenly became uncontrollable, jumped out of his body, and circled around Jiuding City all day long, as if he was looking for something.

Qin Shaofu knew that this situation could not be taken lightly, so he simply let everyone live outside Jiuding City, and at the same time let people close the city gate and prohibit anyone from entering.

After wandering around for several days, on the evening of the seventh day, the blood-patterned black tiger suddenly stood at the bronze tripod and roared loudly. It is the fifteenth full moon, bathed in the faint moonlight, which makes people feel extremely weird.

Qin Shaofu stood on the collapsed palace wall, holding his breath and watching carefully. His instincts told him that something was going to happen.

Sure enough, in the middle of the night, as soon as the hour arrived, in the roar of the blood-patterned black tiger, an extremely shocking scene appeared.

One phantom after another came out of the ground and stood on the ground, all of them were people, with blank faces, like lonely ghosts, who were those who died in the city, nomads, and soldiers and people in the city.

The blood-patterned black tiger roared, and the blood basin opened its mouth, as if a strange force appeared in the traction, and all the people flew towards the big mouth like dandelions.

Groups flew into the mouth, and for half an hour, all the phantoms in the city were sucked clean by the blood-patterned black tiger.

Fortunately, he had the nomads stationed outside the city and blocked the city gates...... Qin Shaofu secretly said that he was lucky in his heart.

These phantoms, even if they are not real souls, I am afraid that people will be mistaken for souls.

In the hearts of those nomads outside the city, the dead can only be regarded as the past, and the living are the most important. But they are also extremely respectful of their ancestors, as well as their deceased relatives.

If they misunderstand that their divine martial souls are devouring the souls of their relatives, I am afraid that the second prince will not be able to suppress the bombing camp.

After devouring all the phantoms, Qin Shaofu could feel that the aura and strength of the Blood Pattern Black Tiger were increasing.

Hatred, fear...... Each phantom carries these two powers, extremely many and extremely strong, and each of them is elevating the Divine Martial Spirit and himself.

To Qin Shaofu's surprise, in addition to these two, he also felt another kind of power, which was as powerful as these two, and intense. It's like greedily wanting something, tormenting the mind.

That kind of power returned to his body with the Blood Pattern Black Tiger, making Qin Shaofu feel it even more obviously.

It is the power of primal instinct that shows the desire in everyone's heart. Those who died, before dying, were filled with a desire for "life", wanted to live, and were unwilling to give up the opportunity to "live".

Is this the power of hope?

Qin Shaofu was curious in his heart, urging the Divine Martial Spirit to experience it carefully, pondering it slowly, and feeling it from it, as if he had seen all kinds of things in the world, the heat and coldness of the world, and saw everyone's extreme desire for something, until it turned into an indescribable force and entangled in his heart.

If we had to give this power a name, it would not be hope, but ...... Desire.

The third force dominated by the Divine Martial Spirit: desire.
