Chapter 674: The Battlefield Like Purgatory
Before Qin Feng could even be surprised, the soft moonlight enveloped him, and the Destiny Star in the Divine Sea erupted with a bright light, as if it could move according to his will.
Qin Feng suddenly felt that gathering all these countless Destiny Stars was much easier than before.
Thinking about the cruelty of this battle and the urgency of time, after saying a word of thanks, he closed his eyes and began to integrate the countless Destiny Stars in the sky.
Not long after, a flash of white light suddenly appeared on the Heart Questioning Platform.
The phantom of Senior Xuan Yi slowly appeared, then looked at the White Deer with a thoughtful expression.
“I… seem to have seen you somewhere.”
The colorful-horned white deer looked at the white phantom with a nostalgic look in its eyes. It slowly approached and curled up beside the Heart Questioning Platform.
It was as if time had gone back thousands of years, to a simple study room where a young man was reading, and a girl was quietly watching behind him, and then quietly plucked the petals that fell on the young man’s head.
Xuan Yi saw that White Deer remained silent, even though he was curious in his heart, he didn’t ask any more questions.
He looked at the towering figure of Qin Feng. Qin Feng’s soul continued to strengthen, and his white-golden Destiny Star was emitting an even brighter light as time passed.…
Woo woo!
The sound of galloping hooves and echoing horns filled the air.
As the light of dawn shone upon the land of the Southern Domain, it heralded the beginning of a brutal war.
The sunlight dispelled the darkness over Zhenling Pass. Twenty years later, the human warriors once again stood at the Zhenling Pass with unwavering determination.
Their faces were solemn as they gazed at Tianling Mountain.
In addition to the eternal snow, countless Garuda Clan members were soaring in the sky.
Their fiery wings, crimson eyes, and terrifying aura were all a testament to their power.
In addition, there was the Heavenly Burial Organization led by the blurry figure, each member possessing a strength above the third tier, far beyond the reach of ordinary soldiers!
The invisible pressure, like the shadow cast by Tianling Mountain, weighed heavily on everyone’s hearts.
The blurry figure said faintly, “You should have enjoyed the last bit of tranquility and waited quietly for the end. Why did you choose to come here and seek death? Is it to stain the snowy mountains with blood?”
Baili chuckled in response, “Today, we have come here to remove the eternal snow from Tianling Mountain.”
As soon as the words fell, Ghost Buddha laughed sharply, “Master, why bother with them? Let me reduce them to ashes!”
With that, Ghost Buddha clapped his hands together, and four towering black statues of Buddhas rose from the ground.
Like mountains rising, their colossal feet came crashing down on the human soldiers.
He seemed to envision a scene of devastation, with mangled and bloodied bodies!
However, in an instant, the four colossal black shadows stood upright and transformed into even larger giants, resembling gods and demons.
They thrust forward with their palms, causing the four statues of the Black Buddhas to stagger backward, sending shockwaves rippling outward and dust swirling in the air.
This was the technique of the Puppet Shadow of the Hundred Ghosts Daoist – the Giant Spirit Gods!
The one who made the move was Bai Wu, the Carefree Wind Ghost.
Before the clash could subside, another sound of air breaking rang out.
The silver light cut through the sky, with unrivaled momentum, and shot straight at Bai Wu’s head. That was Gong Du’s life-threatening arrow!
A blade qi soared into the sky, effortlessly slicing the flying arrow in half.
Zhen Tianyi, the Mad Blade, held his long knife and stared coldly at Gong Du. For a traitor to the human race, death was the only punishment worthy enough to appease the souls of the fallen brothers!
The eight-winged Garuda looked in the direction of the Nan Tianlong in the crowd and shouted harshly, “I failed to take your life in the battle years ago. Today, I will taste the flesh and blood of your body!”
With that, the Garuda eight wings fluttered, moved at a speed similar to teleportation, and appeared above Nan Tianlong’s head in the blink of an eye.
The violent wind formed by the flapping wings turned into an indestructible sharp blade, pouring down towards Nan Tianlong and engulfing the latter.
In the crowd, Li Luo saw this scene and shouted, “Master!”
But the next moment, a scream echoed, not from Nan Tianlong, but from the eight-winged garuda hovering in the sky!
People turned to look, only to see that a pair of the Garuda’s wings had been severed, the flesh on the broken wing torn to shreds, and blood mixed with flames raining down!
Looking to the other side, a lion manifested out of Golden Vigor Qi, exuding a fierce aura, with the severed wing of the Garuda Clan in its mouth!
Liu Tianlu exclaimed, “Suan Ni…”
As the smoke cleared, Nan Tianlong’s figure reappeared. His upper robe was torn off, revealing his muscular body. On his back were two vividly lifelike animal-like patterns.
Baili continued, “If you have pushed the use of Vigor Qi to the limit, then the Southern Dragon has taken a different path in its use of Vigor Qi.”
“He can seal the souls of Demons and Ghosts that he has killed into his body with Vigor Qi, thereby gaining their power. If I remember correctly, this Suan Ni should be the powerful beast that plagued the western part of the southern region ten years ago, reaching the peak of the Eight Cycles of Calamity.”
Father Qin, who stood aside, casually remarked, “Not bad.”
The soldiers and demon hunters cheered at the sight.
After all, it was an Eight-Winged Garuda, but it suffered a severe setback at the hands of the Commander!
Liu Tianlu nodded slightly. With such a morale-boosting victory before the battle, it was the perfect time to march.
But the Eight-Winged Garuda of the Garuda Clan was also furious and shouted, “Kill them! I do not want a single blade of grass to grow in the Southern Domain, and I want their corpses strewn across the land!”
As soon as these words were spoken, the Garuda Clan all flapped their wings, causing a sudden gust of wind.
Liu Tianlu and Lie Ying exchanged a glance, then shouted loudly, “Today, not a single Garuda will fly out of Zhenling Pass! Divine Marquis Army, kill!”
“Military War Duke Army, kill!”
The roar shook the sky.
The battle erupted immediately.
The thunderous roar of gunpowder was deafening, and endless arrows seemed to erase the sky!
In the sky above, hundreds of Two-Winged Garudas had their wings pierced by arrows, and blood splashed everywhere.
However, when the fire-poisoned blood fell among the soldiers, it caused considerable damage, like maggots gnawing at their bones.
The mighty Garuda Clan flapped their wings, whipping up a whirlwind, powerfully knocking down countless arrows, while their sharp claws claimed the lives of many soldiers.
Of course, the Dragon Clan wouldn’t stand idly by, so they quickly entered the fray and fought with the Four-Winged Garudas.
Liu Tianlu knew all too well that the effectiveness of long-range attacks would be limited, and the large-scale battlefield would inevitably turn into a brutal melee.
Besides, the Garuda Clan’s flesh was as hard as rock, so individual soldiers were no match for them on the same level.
Fortunately, the number of human soldiers was many times greater than that of the Garuda Clan, so the tactic was simple: use arrows to force the inferior Garuda Clan to the ground, then outnumber them and kill them!
“Jinyun,” The blurry shadow said calmly.
Jinyun, who was short and stocky, understood without words, but just as he was about to unleash his space technique, he was wiped out by the boundless thunder.
Cang Zong also possessed the Innate Divine Ability of the Void. How could he allow his opponent to freely use spatial techniques?
The blurry figure was about to say something, but he was interrupted by a surge of Clear Qi shooting towards him.
Then the old man looked over and calmly said to Baili, “Long time no see, shall we find a place to catch up?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Wuyou attacked Ghost Buddha, and Zhen Tianyi slashed at Gong Du.
Father Qin and Nan Tianlong exchanged glances, then they moved together to restrain the second ghost-faced person and Sword Ghost.
The three members of the Sword Dao Alliance, Bai Yan, and the thirty-six stars of the Demon Slaying Department also went to confront the high-level forces of the Garuda Clan.
Shen Li was blocked by Sun Qi.
He narrowed his eyes and chuckled, “Senior Brother, it’s been many years. Why did you escape from Ninefold Prison without any remorse? Since you’re free today, I’d like to discuss some spells with you. Please don’t refuse.”
Shen Li scratched his messy hair, sighed, and then several gusts of wind blew toward him. He had no choice but to comply.
The sound of battle cries and roars resounded, blood and unquenchable flames staining the earth. The soldiers poured their lives into defending the Zhenling Pass, not retreating a single step.
“Birdman, don’t even think about flying out of the Zhenling Pass!”
“Brothers, kill them all!”
“Kill!!!”
Every moment, Garuda and soldiers perish, turning the battlefield into a purgatory.
