Chapter 1208: The Great Battle Begins
Editor: Henyee Translations
After Jiang Chengxuan proposed his plan, the entire command camp was filled with an atmosphere of joy. Everyone exchanged glances, reflecting on and imagining the potential impact of this plan on the battlefield. The more they thought about it, the brighter their smiles became. Their gazes toward Jiang Chengxuan carried a hint of reverence.
This man’s abilities were extraordinary—not only was his strength formidable, but his strategic insight was equally impressive. Moreover, his appearance seemed so timely, as if a destined savior sent by the heavens.
“Boom!”
However, before they could indulge in their happiness for long, a series of violent explosions and tremors suddenly resounded from outside the city walls.
“Woo—! Woo—!”
The chilling sound of a massive war horn made of metal and stone echoed along with the wind, deafening everyone. Instantly, the joy on everyone’s faces vanished, replaced by grim determination.
“It seems the beast army is launching another assault. Let’s move!” The city lord of Twin Peaks City was the first to rise from his seat. His imposing figure stood tall and commanding as he called out to the others.
Hearing this, Jiang Chengxuan and the others nodded, rising from their seats like sharp swords, exuding an aura of strength and resolve. Led by the city lord, they all harnessed their immortal energy, transforming into beams of light as they flew toward the frontline.
At that moment, a cold voice suddenly echoed in Jiang Chengxuan’s mind, startling him before filling him with joy.
[Ding!]
[System Task: Achieve the accomplishment of defending Twin Peaks City!]
The unexpected voice was from the system he hadn’t heard from in a long time. Jiang Chengxuan hadn’t anticipated that the situation in Twin Peaks City, which seemed unrelated to him, would draw the system’s attention. Regardless, this unexpected delight and the potential rewards from the system were something he was determined to strive for.
As they approached the frontline, Jiang Chengxuan’s fighting spirit burned even brighter.
“Roar!”
The scene at the frontlines gradually unfolded before them. This battlefront was far larger than the one managed by Elder Wan, with the beast army even more numerous, like an endless sea of sand. Countless enormous beast figures roared ceaselessly, each emanating different types of energy as they surged toward the city walls with overwhelming force.
In an instant, the pitch-black night was torn apart by countless streams of light. Thunderous explosions echoed from both the ground and the sky, like massive waves crashing down.
“Great Heavenly Creation Palm!”
With a cold glint in his eye, the city lord of Twin Peaks City unleashed his immortal energy, displaying the full power of his peak Ascendant Immortal realm. His presence was announced to the defending forces as he summoned a massive palm of energy, spanning hundreds of miles, to suppress the incoming beastly flood.
“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!”
The collision of forces lit up the sky with explosions, causing continuous tremors.
“City Lord Mighty!”
“City Lord Mighty!”
The defending soldiers of Twin Peaks City cheered, their voices resounding like thunder.
At this moment, the city lord, Jiang Chengxuan, and the others landed on the city walls, standing firm against the beastly tide. Before them, the beast army drew dangerously close. Their enormous eyes glowed like burning stars, approaching with the fury of a tearing storm.
“Roar!—”
Facing the barrier, the surging beast army continued their savage assault. They swung their claws, flapped their wings spanning hundreds of feet, and leaped thousands of miles to strike the barrier with terrifying force, attempting to break through with brute strength.
“Fire at will!”
With a stern expression, the city lord roared his command. Immediately, the defending soldiers, their morale high, unleashed their powers, using various defensive artifacts to launch devastating attacks at the densely packed beast horde.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
Instantly, the barrier was engulfed in endless explosions and energy waves, causing even the massive city walls to tremble continuously.
“Roar—!”
At this moment, from within the shadowy beast army, a domineering roar erupted. Three terrifying figures towering to the heavens slowly emerged like mountain peaks rising from the ground.
In response, the city lord, Jiang Chengxuan, and the others adopted serious expressions. Their robes fluttered in the wind as they unleashed their full power.
These figures were clearly the Ascendant Immortal-level beasts leading the army. As their forms became fully visible, Jiang Chengxuan took in their appearances.
The three towering beasts stood in a triangular formation, their auras terrifying like three celestial mountains suppressing the area. The one on the right was a bipedal creature resembling a scaled serpent, with limbs on its belly and crystal-like scales covering its body. It had six blood-red eyes.
