Chapter 819 - 819 War Begins, The Killing Reward from the Demon Subduing Pagoda (2)
819 War Begins, The Killing Reward from the Demon Subduing Pagoda (2)
Zhou Shu looked around for the originally majestic bronze chariots, but he couldn’t find them.
Boom!
The experts of the two grotto-heavens were frantically blocking the Demon Realm army. The Great Qin army, which was originally behind the defense line, had already pressed forward.
Zhou Shu finally understood what Wang Xuanyi and his wife meant when they said that there were endless demonic beasts.
There were too many demonic beasts!
There were so many that even Zhou Shu felt terrified. How could the human race stop so many demonic beasts?
“Great Qin, kill!”
Zhou Shu heard a familiar shout. The Qin emperor, Xu Shi, and others led the Great Qin army into the Demon Realm army like moths to a flame.
When the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven targeted Zhou Shu, the Qin emperor hadn’t stood out to help. Not only did he not stand out, but he even abandoned Wang Mu, Wang Xin, and the rest.
It was impossible for Zhou Shu not to have any opinions about the Qin emperor.
But now that he saw the Qin emperor fighting demonic beasts without caring about his own safety, he suddenly felt that this small conflict was no longer worth mentioning.
A few powerful auras came from all over.
The people who came were old acquaintances of Zhou Shu. Ji Lutian and Zheng Chengan also rushed over.
Boom!
Several beams of light landed on the demonic beasts and crazily reaped their lives.
[The Ming Hong Saber you forged effectively completed a kill. The Divine ability Myriad Transformations +1!]
…
Zheng Chengan held a saber in his left hand and a sword in his right. The saber was Zhou Shu’s Ming Hong Saber.
As the leader of the Sima Grotto-Heaven, although Zheng Chengan’s cultivation didn’t reach Wang Xuanyi’s level, he was still an out-and-out Grotto-Heaven realm expert. With one move, he had reaped the lives of countless demonic beasts.
But the demonic beasts he killed were like small waves in the face of the endless demonic beast army. They were instantly drowned by the army.
The empty space cleared by the saber beams and sword beams was instantly filled in by other demonic beasts.
Even so, Zheng Chengan was quickly blocked by a powerful Demon King who appeared from the Demon Realm army.
It was the same for Ji Lutian and the other experts.
At this moment, it was meaningless to accuse the demonic beasts of the Demon Realm.
At the end of the day, there was no reason for war.
Boom!
In the distance, human troops appeared one after another and threw themselves into the battlefield without hesitation.
At this moment, no one was talking about strategy. It was all about one word: kill!
There were indeed many demonic beasts in the Demon Realm, but over the past few days, the various grotto-heavens had not been idle. They had been preparing for today.
The Sima Grotto-Heaven and the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven were not the only ones participating in this war. In a short time, reinforcements from the other grotto-heavens arrived on the battlefield.
Even as a veteran who had experienced many battles, Zhou Shu couldn’t bear to look at the battle scene. Large groups of human soldiers were constantly falling, and the speed of casualties was more than several times faster than during the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament.
Especially the Great Qin army, they were the weakest people on the battlefield. Xu Shi, a first-rank martial artist, and the Qin emperor, who had barely broken through to the Earth Immortal realm, were completely inconspicuous on this battlefield.
… Not to mention the weaker elites of Great Qin.
Almost half of the 100,000 elite soldiers had fallen in a few breaths.
[The Demon Subduing Pagoda you forged effectively completed a kill. You are rewarded with the cultivation technique Heavenly Emperor Jade Book!]
A nine-story pagoda descended from the sky, directly crushing and killing a large portion of the Demon Realm army in front of the Great Qin army.
The Demon Subduing Pagoda in Ji Lutian’s hand had also been recorded in Zhou Shu’s Legendary Armament Canon. After completing kills, there were naturally rewards.
“Qin Emperor, retreat first. It’s not time for you to go to the frontline yet!” Ji Lutian shouted.
The cultivation levels of the Ten Nations’ soldiers were too low. Now that there were people from the grotto-heavens resisting the demonic beasts, they were not needed.
“This is the territory of Great Qin. Even if Great Qin only has one soldier left, we will never back down!” the Qin emperor shouted, covered in blood.
Ji Lutian frowned slightly. Just as he was about to speak, he felt a powerful force heading for his back.
He was a little helpless and could only turn around to face the enemy.
“Qin Emperor, don’t force yourself!”
With that, he focused on his fight with the Demon King.
“Kill!” The Qin emperor roared and charged forward with his saber.
Swish!
A Great Qin soldier blocked the sharp claws of a demonic beast for the Qin emperor and was torn in half. Blood splattered all over the Qin emperor.
Xu Shi knocked the demonic beast away. As he fought with all his might, he roared, “Your Majesty, retreat first! I’ll hold them off here!”
Xu Shi was covered in blood. Some belonged to him, while others belonged to demonic beasts.
The Qin emperor’s eyes were red as he growled.
Seeing Great Qin’s elite soldiers fall one by one, he felt powerless and angry.
The world had changed. The former number one person in the Ten Nations was now so powerless.
“There are no deserters in Great Qin!” the Qin emperor roared crazily.
A powerful light erupted from his body as he activated his spiritual essence and charged forward with all his might.
Despair flashed across Xu Shi’s eyes. He no longer had any strength left. If the emperor died here, Great Qin would probably be finished.
Xu Shi raised his sword with both hands and stabbed the chest of a demonic beast in front of him. Before the demonic beast died, its sharp claws had already slashed down, but Xu Shi was already powerless to resist. “Your Majesty, I’ll take my leave first!”
Tears of blood flowed from the Qin emperor’s eyes. He roared weakly, but he was stopped by several demonic beasts and was powerless to save Xu Shi.
Swish!
Xu Shi closed his eyes and waited for death. He felt his face heat up, as if hot blood had splashed onto him.
The pain he imagined didn’t come. Xu Shi opened his eyes in surprise and saw a burly man with a curly beard grinning.
“Sir Xu, long time no see.” The burly man laughed and threw out a domineering spear in his hand. The spear shot out like a dragon and skewered four demonic beasts like a candied hawthorn.
“Wang Xin?” Xu Shi said a name.
Wang Xin didn’t respond. He charged into the demonic beasts.
“Wang Xin of Great Xia is here. Who dares to fight me!” Wang Xin’s roar sounded on the battlefield.
“Great Xia?” Xu Shi muttered to himself as a few figures rushed past him.
“Bai Qiancheng of Great Xia is here!”
“Xiao Jianghe of Great Xia is here! Demonic beasts, die!”
Figures appeared one after another in front of Great Qin’s elite soldiers and stopped the attack of the Demon Realm army.
“Qin Emperor, rest for a while. Leave them to us.” A figure appeared beside the Qin emperor and cut off the head of the demonic beast in front of him. His back was facing the Qin emperor.
The Qin emperor’s expression froze. “General—”
“Wang Mu of Great Xia.” The figure held a sword in his hand and was as mighty as a mountain. Without turning his head, he said in a deep voice, “Qin Emperor, don’t mistake my identity.”
He stepped forward, and sword beams erupted as he fought the Demon Realm army.
The Qin emperor looked at Wang Mu’s back in a daze with a complicated expression. After a long time, he sighed.
Regardless of right or wrong, Great Qin didn’t have deserters who were cowards!
The Qin emperor gripped the sword in his hand tightly and let out a low roar as he rushed at the Demon Realm army.
[The Crimson Firmament Sword you forged effectively completed a kill. The Son of Heaven Sword Technique has improved by 30%.]
[The Huben Saber you forged effectively completed a kill. The Eight-Nine Arcane Art has improved by 30%.]
…
Xiao Jianghe, Yang Hong, and the others all appeared on the battlefield and joined the battle.
Zhou Shu had already rushed to the battlefield. Just as he was about to attack, he suddenly saw a dragon-like airwave rolling in the Demon Realm army, sending the bodies of demonic beasts flying.
Someone actually launched a sneak attack from behind the demonic beasts?
Who is it?
Zhou Shu looked over. He didn’t see anyone, but he saw a familiar scene.
Small flying sabers combined into a pair of wings surrounded by lightning. The wings swept out like dragons, sending countless demonic beasts flying into the air before charging toward the humans.
Wind and Thunder Wings? Demon King Hu Li? What is he doing? Zhou Shu was stunned.
