Tang Geng and Liu Xiaoxiao both made their moves, and Dan Nan naturally understood immediately.
Without any hesitation, he gave the order.
"Diancang, Huayun, and Qingcheng, three sects, maintain your formation and retreat slightly. Cooperate with the flanks and lure the enemy into the trap!"
Through the seamless cooperation of the three, Tang Geng and Liu Xiaoxiao on the left and right flanks quickly converged.
This net directly surrounded thousands of ability users.
Under the encirclement of the major sects, the ability users were unable to fight freely and found it difficult to resist.
Soon, under the combined efforts of the nine major sects, they were completely devoured.
"Yeah!"
The sect disciples tasted victory for the first time, their morale soared, and they cheered with joy.
Seeing the sect disciples gradually getting into the groove, Dan Nan and the others also showed relieved smiles.
However, the war was still ongoing.
Among the tens of millions of ability users, the small wave they had eliminated was merely a drop in the ocean.
For the ability user army, it was hardly a significant blow.
Therefore, Dan Nan had to continue speaking to these sect disciples.
"You all did very well just now. However, the war is far from over, and our enemies are still numerous. It is not yet time to celebrate. Let's maintain our lines in this manner, warriors, charge!"
Having tasted the sweetness of victory, the sect disciples were in high spirits.
Upon hearing Dan Nan's encouraging words, they immediately erupted with even stronger will, following Dan Nan and the other two to continue fighting.
At this moment, although death continued.
Although sacrifices were inevitable.
The sect disciples seemed to have gradually adapted to the battlefield and were fighting with all their might.
At this point, no one had any thought of retreating.
Nor did anyone feel that what Han Lang had just done to the few deserters was wrong.
Because they all knew.
Behind them lay the gateway to the Xia Kingdom.
If they fled, the entire populace of the Xia Kingdom would suffer.
If the skin is gone, where will the hair attach?
On the other side, Han Lang and Song Heguo continued to lead the generals' contingent, fighting on the front lines.
Their opponents were not like the sect disciples.
At this moment, they had penetrated deep into enemy territory, facing at least SSS-class ability users.
However, the enemy was simply too numerous.
Even though they exerted all their efforts and bore the brunt of the battlefield's pressure, they still saw no significant effect.
At a critical moment, Han Lang shouted.
"Commander Song, you all retreat a bit. I need to find a way to unleash a major move!"
Song Heguo had absolute trust in Han Lang.
Upon hearing this, he immediately gave the order.
"Everyone, retreat to Han Lang's side, protect him, and buy him time!"
The generals were all veteran soldiers with extensive combat experience. With Song Heguo's command, they quickly took action.
In an instant, nearly a hundred people formed a circle, with Han Lang at the very center of the defensive ring. Everyone fought with all their might to buy him time to unleash his ultimate move.
Han Lang also did not hesitate.
He directly swallowed a Spirit Replenishing Pill and then quickly recited a hand seal.
Instantly, the Nine Flame Departing Fire Needle rapidly enlarged, and within a few breaths, it had reached a height of a hundred zhang, large enough to be embraced by dozens of people, becoming a massive silver pillar.
However, this was not the end.
After the Nine Flame Departing Fire Needle enlarged, Han Lang slapped it, and instantly, balls of red and black flames appeared on the Nine Flame Departing Fire Needle.
This transformed it into a giant pillar of fire.
And these flames on it were the materialized forms of Samadhi True Fire and Yin Fire.
"Generals, please take cover, and witness my Pillar Supporting the Heavens!"
Han Lang raised his sword finger, the Nine Flame Departing Fire Needle sprang up high, and then smashed fiercely towards the dense mass of ability users before them.
A large group of SSS-class and a few X-class ability users saw this massive silver pillar and initially paid it no mind.
They believed it was merely an ordinary illusion technique.
But as they unleashed their full power to resist, they discovered.
This massive silver pillar not only weighed tens of thousands of pounds, but its flames were also deadly.
Once touched, the energy within the body was almost instantly depleted.
Some SSS-class ability users were even engulfed by the flames, and within a mere moment, their bodies were reduced to ashes.
The ability users were utterly shocked.
They never imagined that this single strike would have such immense power.
Little did they know, this move was the full power strike of Han Lang, who possessed the strength of the Nascent Soul stage.
After using this move, he already felt somewhat drained.
But he couldn't afford to care about that now.
After the Nine Flame Departing Fire Needle fell, he once again exerted all his strength, holding the tail of the Nine Flame Departing Fire Needle, and swung it up with sheer force.
The massive pillar swept across, its momentum like a thousand pounds!
In an instant, the ability user ranks were thrown into disarray, with individuals fleeing in a frenzy without any regard for their formation.
But how could their speed match that of the Nine Flame Departing Fire Needle!
In just a moment, a large number of ability users were crushed into meat paste by this strike.
More were completely refined by the Samadhi True Fire and Yin Fire, directly turning into ashes.
This single strike annihilated at least several thousand high-level enemy ability users.
Of course, the majority of these were S-class and SS-class ability users.
"Damn! Army Commander Han is awesome! With such a move, why didn't you use it earlier!"
"Haha, seeing these ability users scurrying away with their heads down, my heart feels so much better!"
"Exactly! It's so exhilarating! Quick, Army Commander Han, do it again!"
...
Hearing the words of the generals, Song Heguo couldn't help but glare at them.
"It's easy for you to say! Haven't you seen how much this attack consumes Han Lang? Do your eyes only see the enemy and not your comrades?"
Scolded by Song Heguo, they finally turned to look at Han Lang.
At this moment, Han Lang's face was pale, and he was gasping weakly, but he still waved his hand at everyone.
"It's fine! I'm fine. This move consumes too much energy, and using it once is already the limit. Moreover, using the same move again would greatly reduce its effectiveness. Generals, seize the time and counterattack with full force!"
Han Lang's words were primarily to prevent everyone from worrying about him and delaying this excellent opportunity for a counterattack.
The generals of the contingent understood his intentions and once again unleashed their attacks, slaughtering the ability users with renewed ferocity.
It wasn't that they didn't care about Han Lang, but at this moment, the battle was the most crucial.
As long as they seized the opportunity created by Han Lang, his efforts would not be in vain.
This would make Han Lang happier than a few simple words of concern.
Of course, Han Lang was not idle either.
With such consumption, he couldn't sustain it.
As the Nine Flame Departing Fire Needle shrunk and returned to his side, he did not hesitate to swallow another Spirit Replenishing Pill, quickly recovering, and then rejoined the battlefield!
