The Xi Tian clan indeed had a larger number of troops than the human forces, boasting a full two million soldiers. At this moment, the engagement between the two sides, when viewed from afar, resembled densely packed locusts, appearing incredibly daunting!
With the arrival of reinforcements, the Xi Tian clan no longer feared these human cultivators.
Years of suppression had instilled a sense of superiority in the hearts of the Xi Tian clan. Upon seeing that humans now dared to deploy all their forces in an attempt to annihilate them, they felt a sense of offense.
Since when did these weak humans become so brave? It was simply unforgivable!
However, the high-ranking officials of the Xi Tian clan were also well aware that this turning point began with the battle at Shiyue Mountain nine years ago, by the Ice Sword mercenary group.
If one were to truly speak of a turning point, that battle was the most terrifying one.
An eighth-realm Xi Tian expert was brutally overwhelmed and killed by a group of nascent soul stage juniors!
Not only did they lose two eighth-realm experts, but their morale also suffered a severe blow, taking a long time to recover. 138 Reading Net.
Thus, this battle was not only important for the human race but also extremely significant for the Xi Tian clan.
Therefore, both sides tacitly initiated this decisive confrontation that would determine the victor.
"Weak humans! We possess twice your troop numbers. Today is your doom... Ah!!!"
A seventh-realm Xi Tian clan member, during the confrontation between the two armies, took on the role of a loudspeaker, attempting to demoralize the humans and undermine their confidence.
But soon, an arrow silently pierced the void from the side, weaving through the Xi Tian clan members and precisely piercing the head of this particular Xi Tian clan member.
With a scream, this seventh-realm expert, acting as a mouthpiece, instantly fell to the ground.
Zhuang Hongxia, with a poker face, drew her bow and nocked another arrow, aiming to finish off the Xi Tian clan member she had just shot down.
"Bold!"
The other seventh-realm Xi Tian clan members immediately reacted, intercepting this arrow for their fallen comrade.
In reality, the attack power of the [Void Bow] was not extremely terrifying, but it possessed a silent effect and, upon impact, also carried a soul-splitting effect.
Zhuang Hongxia herself had been killed by two arrows in the past, so this single arrow was not fatal.
It only caused a shockwave to the soul of the 'mouthpiece,' causing him to lose his balance and fall from the air.
However, this initial probing strike made all the Xi Tian clan members inexplicably uneasy. Before their leader could even finish his defiant words, he was shot down headfirst by an arrow from the opponent, causing their morale to subtly dip.
Wang Teng let out a sinister grin, roaring at the sky like a colossal dragon.
Blood-colored armor covered his body, and he transformed into a streak of bloody light, leading the charge towards the Xi Tian clan army!
"Fighting is fighting! What the hell are you shouting about?"
The golden [Pillar of Heaven] gradually extended, and with the aura of descending from the nine heavens, it slammed directly towards the Xi Tian clan member who had been shot down by Zhuang Hongxia!
These Xi Tian clan members were both shocked and enraged.
"He dares to charge over and seek death! Don't panic! He's just a golden body realm body cultivator! Let's gang up on him again this time!"
"Surround him! Let him have no return!"
The Xi Tian clan members also roared in anger, but who said he was alone?
Xiao Long was behind Wang Teng, his right hand raised above his head. The entire person was enveloped by the most yang and most rigid Sun True Fire, as if the sun itself had descended from the sky.
"Heavenly Sun Divine Palm!"
These Xi Tian clan members all showed looks of horror. Who uses their ultimate move at the very beginning of a fight?
But at this moment, an eighth-realm Xi Tian clan member named Wuhala, wielding dual axes, appeared beneath the palm print and slashed at the massive palm print with all his might.
The sky was torn open by two crescent moons. This [Heavenly Sun Divine Palm], which was powerful enough to engulf a city, was forcefully ripped apart by him.
"You kill Wang Teng! I won't let them save... What the heck!"
His expression changed drastically because an axe capable of tearing apart heaven and earth was continuously spinning and heading towards him!
Although Wuhala's dual axes were also immortal artifact-grade weapons, they were no match for the [Sky-Splitting Divine Axe].
A twin-tailed little loli emerged from the axe, emanating a fierce aura, and wielding the axe handle, she swung it towards Wuhala.
"Get lost!"
He crossed his dual axes in front of his chest, and strands of dark lightning erupted from his body, deflecting the menacing [Sky-Splitting Divine Axe].
But he had underestimated the situation. As an eighth-realm initial stage Xi Tian clan member, he had to be extremely cautious when facing the Ice Sword mercenary group.
For example, the power he unleashed just now made many Xi Tian clan members hesitate to approach him, retreating far back.
As a result, the encirclement formed around Wang Teng had also vanished. That 'mouthpiece' had already had his head smashed to bits by Wang Teng's staff.
Wuhala was furious. When he tried to forcibly kill Wang Teng, he found Wang Teng smiling at him meaningfully.
The [Pillar of Heaven] in his hand erupted with golden light, and rings of ripples spread out from him, forming a golden barrier.
Wuhala's face turned ashen. He remembered Babali's death.
Babali had been killed in this manner, forcibly ganged up on.
"You wish... "
He raised his dual axes high and fiercely chopped at the barrier, but unfortunately, it only caused ripples on the barrier. This was a barrier that at least an Immortal King could break.
Upon realizing this, he could no longer maintain his composure.
Then, when he turned around, he discovered that the members of the Ice Sword mercenary group had already entered.
Li Qingyun, Bai Nianchen, Qin Xiaoxiao...
Including Wang Teng, a total of twelve people appeared before him.
This time, he was even more miserable than Babali.
At least Babali was initially only fighting four people, with the ultimate gang-up happening later. But this time, Shen Yingxue and Zhang Xiaohu had both broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, meaning they could also participate in the righteous group assault.
Chen Xiaohan did not enter. Her role was not on the high-end battlefield. She was like a venomous snake, capable of instantly unleashing power more terrifying than immortal techniques when the battle reached its most intense, without the Xi Tian clan members realizing it.
Seeing Wang Teng and the others instantly kill a seventh-realm cultivator and about to move on to an eighth-realm one, everyone felt their breathing quicken.
Bai Hong waved his hand, shouting, "Let us follow the footsteps of the Ice Sword mercenary group! Attack!"
"Fight!!!"
The deafening roar echoed through the heavens, and the battle between the cultivators and the Xi Tian clan was about to erupt...
