Yinhua resolve and concentration was at high stake, she is sweating in her cultivating, The “Heavenly Resonance Guide Supreme Technique” produces five weak auras within her being, The aura of Blaze, Radiance, Static, Purity, and Divine are colluding each other as they converting the nature’s energy and essence into heavenly energy, as it sucked by the black hole-like soul realm of Yinhua, as for abnormal cultivation, Yinhua’s level is equal to ten cultivators of five star Copper rank, or five cultivators of five star bronze rank, or more so can par a one cultivator of one star iron rank martial fighter.
By means of combination of the supreme technique in comparison to her home world, she can even define as a Super genius, by just cultivating for just hours to break through the levels, because in martial world, the cultivation techniques are scarce in numbers, because of the great war between every sects and the demon beast are scattered and numerous, many empires and sects falls, because of these powerful beasts, that’s why cultivation process are in low quality, making the cultivations and break through are reaching weeks or even months to break through in martial world which Yinhua came after her rebirth from her past life.
Yinhua travels every nook and cranny of fallen empire and sects, searching every ruins, to just accumulate treasure and knowledge, she often feel she is becoming Indiana Jones version two point zero, but alas she is very curious about the events of the worlds that cause her to face every danger and threat in her travels until she reach the peak of the power and gain a vast amount of knowledge since then.
It was a late night, Yinhua continuously condense the energy, sucking dry all the converted gathered energy around her, the winds are starting to ruffling in her sleeves and dress, the surroundings presence become at a state of being unstable, and suddenly an explosion of aura formed in the garden, Yinhua successfully breakthrough to one star bronze rank, then Yinhua stops the cultivating and taking a gasp of air as some sweat flowing around her body.
“At last, but still a long way for me, I’m still an ant in this world if I cannot reach the Martial Legend and breakthrough to heavenly realm, but since I have my money, I can buy some herbs and experiment them to make pills that can aid me in cultivation process!” Yinhua thought for a moment
“But it seems, this is the new world, that means the herbs are different here and can also affect the potent and effects of the pills, Yare, yare daze~” Yinhua muttered to herself as she then start to back to her room and start to take a night bath before going to bed, but then she sense a someone is coming for her, a familiar one.
“Yinhua! Yinhua! Where are you?” It was the voice of Wilhelm, he bring a basket in his right arm.
“Young Lord, over here!” Yinhua replied and wave her hand.
“Oh! There you are, come here, I’ve bring a food for you, I think you didn’t have a dinner to eat” Wilhelm said as he start to come closer to Yinhua’s location.
“Ara, ara, how sweet of you, Young Lord, this lady might be fall in love with you~” Yinhua teases as she wait for Wilhelm to come closer.
“Wha-what are you saying?! Please stop it!” Wilhelm shocked reply; a slight blush can be seen in his face.
“Ufufufu~ I’m just kidding, but to bring such gift for me is truly appreciated by this lady” Yinhua answers as she shown a mischievous smile.
“Yo-your welcome, just don’t be li-like that!” Wilhelm answers nervously, this lady is truly a succubus to the fullest, and did she just do it on purpose of her teasing.
“Hai! As you wish!” Yinhua said as she bows suddenly in one hundred degrees angle, making her huge chest to bounce.
Wilhelm saw her bowing and gulp another saliva, she is total tempting him and tease him to full extent, but he control himself not to be fooled easily and fight his urges head on, then Wilhelm passes the food basket to Yinhua while his face is in other direction, evading the seducing stare of Yinhua, one day he can take his revenge on this woman, at best two folds the payback.
“My greatest apologies Young Lord Capistrano, I’m bathing in sweat, as you can see, I bear a fruit of my cultivation, I felt that my power become multifold strong than I was before” Yinhua said as he opens the basket and saw bread, meat jerky, vegetables and fruits inside.
“Well that’s good to hear that you breakthrough, but still,,,” Wilhelm happily replied and suddenly he became worried.
“The war? Ah yes it is, don’t worry about it, I can survive to that, remember the promise that I’ve once said, a kiss on the forehead if we won” Yinhua said as she put the basket at the side of the wall behind the garden.
She then suddenly hug Wilhelm calmly and bring a warmth embrace to him which Wilhelm dropped his own guard in surprised, he smell the sweet femine scent along the sweat that absorbed by her cloth, Yinhua is indeed a goddess that brings a warm and calm atmosphere around her.
“That hug is just for the gratitude and thanks for your hospitality towards me, but sooner it will be a farewell message for you from me” Yinhua said and smiled and then loosen her hug to a surprised Wilhelm.
“Farewell? What do you mean?” Wilhelm said as he felt uneasiness in Yinhua’s words.
“It’s too early to say about that, but sooner you will learn the truth” Yinhua said as she starts to eat the food, although the food taste is rather bland and salty but the fruit and vegetables are still good, yeah she remember mayonnaise.
“The truth?” Wilhelm frowns.
“Well this world is so interesting to discover and unravel the secrets of the world that hidden in our sights” Yinhua added, as she keep chew a small bit of beef jerky.
“What do you mean? I-I can’t understand what are you talking about?” Wilhelm became confuse about the word that Yinhua’s spat about.
“Meaning, after the war, I sought to travel the whole world and to gain knowledge and power in the greatest adventure ever” Yinhua finishes and soon it became a moment of silence.
The wind blows to the two of them, Yinhua stands then lift her head up and stare at the moon that shining and glowing in the darkness along with the stars that twinkling in the dark skies, She is so beautiful and attractive that can drive men into craze for her, as for Wilhelm, he felt sadness about what he heard from Yinhua’s mouth, travelling far away from him, why fate so harsh thou, he really likes Yinhua, a love at first sight, and to extent that he will never let her go away from him, although Yinhua is truly a teaser, but deep inside she is a smart, very good and righteous woman.
He felt a little depress, he must to tell her about his confession, although he hides it for so long to keep his honor and gentleness, he can’t suppress his feelings deep inside of his mind, the images of Yinhua’s smile and beautiful glance remain colluding in his thoughts, let her go? Absolutely not, he must build courage now to confess his true feelings for her before it’s too late for him.
“The butterflies flew to the cherry tree”
“Lake glows deep from moonlight spree”
“Through mountains, doves fly free”
“All the spirits flew, though you agree”
“Let me be, let me see, accept all of me”
“Let me be, let me see, accept all of me”
Yinhua said a poem, a speech that resemblance the peace and serenity of cycle of life and death, she remember the time she died in her first life and suddenly rebirth, Wilhelm felt a little chill as he heard the poem, he felt a little fear coming through him, suddenly he felt the hand of Yinhua touches his face pressing his left cheek, Wilhelm suddenly stops and felt frozen, he is facing now Yinhua so close that he can’t even help but to blush redly which Yinhua doesn’t pay attention then she smiled to Wilhelm.
Yinhua begins to talk about her future plan about the manor that she will manage, which Wilhelm pays attention, and listen attentively, he felt astonished about the set plan the Yinhua will use, these plan can indeed bring a new reform to their economy, often some of the plans are rather new and mysterious, he felt that those plan are reasonable as long as Yinhua said an explain the effect, if this plan are spread to the kingdom, it can alleviate the economic problems that been facing by the people who live in the kingdom, she also choose Wilhelm to manage her manor if she is not around, Yinhua smiles again and giving an alluring appearance impact to Wilhelm, Wilhelm’s heart thumping so fast, like he cannot concentrate and think about to say for her, he lost his words to say for her.
Yinhua then wave a good bye to Wilhelm and move to the bathroom of the castle to take a bath before to take rest and sleep from the cultivating, leaving Wilhelm lonely figure, but he will wait for the day to come to confess his love for her and how will he cherish her to the fullest, though he felt sadness, he still gain courage because the war is about to start in the fields of Lightenguard Kindom.

Stolen story; please report.
As for Princess Erina, she is posted alone in the kingdom, guarded heavily with the Royal Guards and Knights, along with the mages from noble families as an added security, the whole kingdom defense is reinforce as well as per planning by Yinhua, Erina knows that Yinhua is very cautious and playing safe in the battle, such a genius tactician she is, she making a massive calculation in order to see the foreground of what will happen next if the plan is failed and foiled by war.
Other nobles and aristocrats are cooperating to each other to produce a massive support and supplies to the army, each of them knows how’s the peril situation that they are facing now, the only thing they can do is to improve the morale of people and increase their effectiveness in the work, everything is start to boil up and busy helping each other.

She still teaches the way of formation of the footmen in facing a huge horde of enemies without being killed, mostly these footmen are attacking like a barbarian and not coordinated, which Yinhua easily saw the flaw, she then proceed them for some exercise and war drills to do in haste but clean preparations, Yinhua then look to the table and start to initiate the way of the operation flow should be, then she makes a scale about the outcome and think clearly how to battle a clever enemies like Duke Christopher and how to shook their guard, she just smirked and start to leave the table and face the whole squad.
“The enemies may be larger than our numbers, we were outnumbered, but our heart is bigger than them, we have a courage and vigor to topple them up in our soil, this is our land, this is our birthplace,,,, and also our grave, for Lightenguard kingdom! Are you with me?!” Yinhua speech like a politician with proudness.

They keep training and improving their skills, all the scouts are scattered in every areas, the forces divided now to their respective locations, three operations are set, back up operations are already prepared, none of them are underestimating their enemy, let the elephant enter the hives of the poisonous insects.
<<<<====/////░░░▒█▀▀█▀▀█▄▄▄█▀▀█▀▀█▒░░░\\\\\====>>>>
After a month, the mage scout reports to Erica in the mountain cave in one of the snowy Alphac mountains, the scout mage discover that the huge army of the duke is coming passing to the mountains, he use the instrument called telescope to widen his vision to take a close sight to the whole enemies without their further notice, The telescope was a protoype made by Yinhua as an additional arsenal to them in scouting, additional to it that they are wearing a white fur jacket called camouflage as per said to increase their stealthiness and reduce the risk of being detected by enemies, they are really went all out to annihilate the whole kingdom without leaving any stones unturned, Erica signs for the moment and sent her familiar wind fairy the message through sound waves as the signals, the cute and sky blue fairy moves along with her master orders with haste without delay.
Sooner after few hours the signal is been received by everyone, also the whole army of the Duke Christopher enter easily mountain ranges without a single hamper or battle in the road, looks like that the Lightenguard Kingdom are totally in weak state to him, but little he didn’t know that he and his whole army are now dancing in the palms of Yinhua, tearing them one by one at the time sooner, when they pass the road of the mountains, the whole army separates in three groups, as expected, Duke Christopher shows a very powerful and gallant armor and a huge broad sword strapped in his back, the sword is ornamented in different gems, both gems are glowing, showing that it is a high grade relic weapon that he can boast to his enemies.
Nobles and lords are separated in left and right, while Duke Christoper task the forces to establish a base to the Margara forest to make a surprise attack in the left side of the kingdom and the right side to ambush the enemies that will face them in the middle road of Roder, everyone start their war plan to make sure they can completely annihilate all of Lightenguard forces.
“And sooner my territory widens, my triumphs begins!” Duke Christopher laughs hysterically.
As expected, they fall truly in the trap of Yinhua, Marcosias, orders the catapult carrier to go to the designated places, the forces divided into four squads in for directions, sooner the one-third army of the duke starts to build their main base and headquarters, there are also a scout that crawling in grass dress in camouflage suit in green and has a telescope too, he can see that Duke Christopher is talking to assassin Mercenaries, he also give them a gold as a deposit for an unknown task given to them by Duke Christopher.
Then the scout immediately withdraw and return immediately to Marcosias about the report insight, Marcosias signals all the catapult to take a position and prepare to engage an aerial strikes.
“All forces listen to me, be careful about these special shells we will use, we must proceed to the plan perfectly, failure is not an option, am I understood!” Marcosias announce and explained.
“Yes sir!!” All the catapult squad simultaneously replied.
“Prepare the spice Shell!” Marcosias ordered.
Every squad prepares a red and round thing and put it on the launching pad of the catapult, the other squad member lit the fire on oiled wood and it is start to blaze, they put the lit fire to the cover and the cover start to spark.
“Everyone! Fire!!” Marcosias order, every squad release the shells, suddenly the shell release a red smoke in the air as it travels towards to the main camp and the Margara Forest.
“Look at the sky! It is a meteor!” One of the soldiers of The Duke’s Army noticed.
“What the hell is that thing?” Another soldier added in question.
“Do not stare over there, brace yourselves, the enemy is already spotted us, prepare for the battle!” The Captain of the army said and ordered.
When the shell reach the ground it explode and release more red gas around the place, smog’s formed, it’s like formation of smokescreen around them, sooner more shells are fired simultaneously, not stopping, it explode when it crashed in the ground.
“AAHH! MY EYES!!”
“Cough! Cough! Cough!”
“Help me! Water please! Water!”
“Someone ,,, cloth,,,, cover…”
“What the hell is going on!”
“SO HOT IN MY NOSE AND ITCHY IN MY EYES! HELP ME!!”
“Get the f**king mages to come here! Removes this poison gas now!”
The sounds of soldiers screaming and panicking, all of them are thrown to disarray, Duke Christopher is being alarmed by the noise, when he open his main tent to go outside, he saw many red smoke covered the whole ground, the whole army is in the mess, mages are starting fight and disperse the smoke screen but futile because there are many falling red smoking objects from the sky and produce more red and very harmful smoke, some of them are starting to cough hard and some of them collapsed due to unable to breath properly others are putting their faces on the water buckets, some are pushing one another like a wild animal that is fighting inside the forest.
<<<<====/////░░░▒█▀▀█▀▀█▄▄▄█▀▀█▀▀█▒░░░\\\\\====>>>>
Back to Marcosias, all the smoking agent shells are all used up and they can see how the army in the side of Margara forest become to disarray, the smoke is too strong and very itchy at the top of that, this smoke consist of mix spices that includes chili powder, pepper and the rest, it also have a raging scent, that once it inhales, It makes the victim to go tantrum and attack one another.
“Everyone loaded the catapult with the black shells, now move!” Marcosias excitedly ordered, he can’t wait to see what the black shell can do.
Sooner, all the catapult are loaded and the shell is lit by the fire again and everyone is focus in their lever release, waiting for Marcosias order and signal.
“FIIRRREEEE!!!” Marcosias shouts the order, and the catapult launch the black shell to the skies.
The shells ignited in flames looks like a falling meteor unlike the red shell that releasing only a red trail smoke in the air, sooner the black shell reaches the target ground location and the next event becomes…
“BOOOMM!!”
“BOOOMM!!”
“BOOOMM!!”
“BOOOMM!!”
“BOOOMM!!”
It was an explosive shell, unlike the simple catapult boulder that putted by an igniting oil that can cause a minimal explosion damages, the black explosive shell is ten times stronger and powerful explosion impact, inside the shell, a sharp, rusty metals, encased in sulfur and black powder and some unstable stones that like a phosphorus, when contact in flames it will explode like a grenade, a fragmented one to be exact, every explosions, shrapnels releases and become a cluster of death to the unlucky one who caught in explosion, their body flies and bloods spurt, some soldiers body caught in explosions and burned by fire, Duke Christopher become enrage, this is totally a massacre that he never anticipated, then he made a loud road that can hear into the skies due to his rage and anger to the situation in his main base.
