Chapter 640 Battle
"What a pity..."
Inside the tent, there were a few scholars with feather fans and silk scarves.
They heard the sound of the war horn, watched as the floating battleships urgently ascended, and the entire camp began to prepare for war in an orderly manner, but their expressions didn't look good: "We were fully prepared, hoping to subdue the enemy without a fight, but it turns out that the opposite side is a brute, charging straight ahead..."
In fact, this was the best way to respond.
Otherwise, the longer the time dragged on, the more advantageous the situation would surely become for the Great Zhou Divine System!
"Destruction... truly deserving of a god who could ascend to true godhood during the chaotic times of the past."
The War God sighed.
Back then, when these foreign gods entered this plane, the world was in chaos. When they eradicated the ancient traditions and established the Divine Country, some local natives took advantage of the situation to become demigods, fake gods, and even true gods! Moreover, some otherworldly gods not aligned with their camp also descended!
And the God of Destruction was undoubtedly the most powerful among them!
Now seeing the other side make such a decisive move, the War God actually felt it was very reasonable.
If it weren't for this keen insight into the big picture, how could they have successfully infiltrated the world back then?
"Now, as we engage in close combat, all strategies are useless!"
"Once the dice of war are thrown, no one can know the result."
"What we need to do now is to give it our all!"
The War God walked out of the command tent and onto a high platform: "I will personally beat the drum!"
Before him was a blood-red war drum.
At this moment, the War God picked up a drumstick and struck heavily.
Thud thud!
In the dull sound, a strong spirit light burst forth.
This blood-red war drum was clearly a powerful divine artifact!
——Courage Aura!
——Strength Aura!
——Edict: Obey!
Various spirit lights bloomed, giving the soldiers in the camp the greatest blessing.
Even the empire's third-line troops, after being amplified by the 'War Drum' divine artifact, were enough to compete with the elite corps.
Not to mention the original elite, the entire group of cultivators, with the camp leader being a Yang God and the deputy general having the rank of a demigod, the dare-to-die army was already at its peak?
Whirl whirls!
The clouds rolled, forming a huge vortex, and a cyan dragon head appeared.
"Siege-breaking arrows, fire!"
A series of arrows thicker than ballista bolts were fired, forming a dense rain of arrows.
On these arrows, various spirit lights flickered, especially the arrowheads, which were engraved with runes and seemed coated with poison.
Coupled with various cultivators' blessings and operations...
Not to mention, if Fang Xing was still that flood dragon, he might have been severely injured from a single wave!
But at this time, these crossbow bolts could only barely pierce his protective spirit light, and when they reached the true dragon scale, they sparked and fell powerlessly.
"First fleet, fire the magic crystal cannon!"
"Second fleet, prepare the Dragon Slayer Crossbow!"
"Third fleet, adopt formation armor seven..."
A series of communication spirit lights transmitted among those flying battleships, a large number of crystal stones filled with primordial qi and energy were unceremoniously thrown into the melter, and the thick barrels roared menacingly.
Boom boom!
Every cannon shot landed on Fang Xing, covered by a layer of emerging tree bark.
——Divine Power Shield!
——Holy Tree Skin Technique!
These were not Fang Xing's active defenses but the Eastern Azure Dragon's instinct!
In other words, several volleys by the Imperial Elite Corps had not even broken Fang Xing's skin...
He looked at these floating battleships flying around, feeling like they were sparrows.
Although not very damaging, the chattering was quite annoying!
Crash!
Thinking of this, Fang Xing's ten-thousand-meter-long body suddenly swayed.
——Divine Dragon Tail!
Crash crash!
Like a hurricane passing through, the battleships hit directly exploded into countless flying debris.
Even those not directly hit were blown away by the terrifying hurricane, not knowing where they ended up.
After eliminating the airborne units, Fang Xing dove like a giant green mountain, crashing heavily into the center of the military camp.
Rumble rumble!
——Heaven and Earth Collision!
The terrifying shockwave instantly swept through all the tents, raising clouds of dust and causing sandstorms to dance wildly.
"This time, probably ninety percent of them are scrapped, right?"
A spirit light flashed in Fang Xing's dragon eyes as he evaluated the outcome of his cleaning of the miscellaneous soldiers.
But then a shocking scene happened.
A group of armored soldiers wielding swords emerged, brimming with morale, seemingly unaffected by the meteor impact just now.
"Is this... Undying Berserk or Unyielding Will?"
Fang Xing's heart moved.
These abilities are essential for the warrior series, allowing professionals to maintain their actions even before death.
'But even Undying Berserk has its limits. Once the body is destroyed, what's the use of being alive?'
'Therefore... this isn't a professional ability, but... they're not human, but similar to essences, thus immune to most physical attacks?'
Fang Xing immediately saw the truth.
Crash crash!
On the War God's high platform, a huge beast-skin banner was raised.
This banner was tattered, with bloodstains at the edges.
But the astounding spirit light burst forth, clearly another divine artifact!
[Heroic Spirit Banner: Can transform your subordinate units into 'Heroic Spirit Form', which is immune to most physical attacks and has effects like Ghost Stealth, Magic Mastery, and Cold Ice Strike...]
"For my lord, kill!"
A group of heroic spirits roared, wielding various transcendent weapons, charging like ants towards an elephant, making for a spectacular scene.
"As expected, the War God is different from the previous weak gods."
"An army of heroic spirits, indeed?"
Fang Xing took a deep breath, then exhaled forcefully.
A blue airflow swept out, transforming into a cone and expanding continuously.
Wherever it passed, even the semi-transparent phantasmal heroic spirits screamed once and vanished directly, their souls utterly dispersed.
——Dragon Breath!
Snap!
His dragon claw pressed down, and a demigod expert screamed, turning directly into a pulp.
At this moment, Fang Xing seemed like a colossal beast of world-ending, bringing indescribable death and destruction!
No matter how high the morale, facing such a monster as him would similarly collapse!
"War... you expect to drain how much of my divine power with these cannon fodders?"
Fang Xing looked up at the high platform where the War God resided.
After one breath from him, there were only a few remaining heroic spirit soldiers and demigod experts.
Battles between divinities are never meant for mortals to join, not even Yang Gods or demigods!
If it weren't for the amplification by two divine artifacts, the suicide troops wouldn't qualify even as cannon fodder!
"Destruction!"
The War God roared in anger, his body swelling a thousandfold, transforming into a gigantic golden giant.
——Divine Power Shield!
——Descent of the Heavenly God!
His muscles bulged all over his body, flashing with golden brilliance, as a giant sword appeared in his hand.
The sound of horns resounded!
——Charge Horn!
The War God charged forward, wielding the giant sword with both hands in a swift swirl.
——Swirl Slash!
Clang!
Fang Xing extended his dragon claw, then felt a sharp pain.
The War God's giant sword divine artifact finally pierced through his Holy Tree Skin Technique, even shattering a few dragon scales.
"You actually managed to hurt me?"
Fang Xing marveled, "Your total profession level must already be above level 40, much stronger than the Death God..."
The War God's enormous body flew backward, a drop of golden divine blood splattered.
He said nothing, wrapping the heroic spirit banner around himself.
In an instant, Fang Xing saw one heroic spirit after another entering the War God's divine body, producing effects akin to those of supplicants.
"My lord... You are the War God, master of combat..."
"You shall defeat the enemy, defeat all!"
Amid the chanting and singing praise of the followers, the War God launched another charge.
Snap!
Fang Xing's dragon tail swept across, incredibly agile despite its massive size.
Whoosh!
A bolt of golden light shot out, none other than the giant sword in the War God's hand.
Fang Xing dashed forward, knocking the War God to the ground, pressing down with both dragon claws.
——Divine Power Suppression!
The dark Destruction Divine Power, like chains, heavily bound the War God.
"Years of enmity end today."
The massive Eastern Azure Dragon lowered its head, staring at the golden giant's face beneath its claws.
"Indeed, it must be resolved."
A sinister smile appeared on the War God's lips, and his huge body exploded with a roar.
Boom!
A terrifying storm of divine power swept through, forcing even Fang Xing to temporarily avoid the edge.
And amidst this storm of divine power, a beam of golden light struck the Eastern Azure Dragon.
——Dispel Magic (Divine Power Amplification)!
"Mere divine arts of the War God to dispel? Hmm? No..."
Fang Xing paused, and then the ten-thousand-meter-long Eastern Azure Dragon vanished.
In its place was only a young man dressed in furs, with a very primitive ancient appearance.
"Finally..."
The War God rejoiced, flipping over to stand, holding a war drum and hammering it down.
"Actually dispelled my Wilderness Transformation form?"
Fang Xing paused, then activated the [Harmonized with Nature] talent.
In a flash, he transformed into a giant of chaos color, surrounded by various natural phenomena like earth, raging fire, fierce wind, and torrential rain.
——Natural Embodiment Form!
Snap!
The Natural Incarnation spread wide its huge hands, blocking the war drum divine artifact, then slapped the War God across the face with one hand.
Rumble!
Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tornadoes, tsunamis, and other natural disasters emerged, relentlessly assaulting the War God's divine body.
"Sorry... Can I say that Wilderness Transformation isn't my primary battle form?"
After all, Fang Xing tended more towards being a Tree Shepherd rather than a Master of Beasts!
Rumble!
Though not as huge as the Eastern Azure Dragon form, the human form of Natural Incarnation suited Fang Xing's martial arts better.
He strode forward, stepping on the War God.
Then... a giant fist descended.
"Main God... You broke the oath!!"
The War God roared angrily and the location immediately transformed into a gigantic pit.
[Target killed, you gain 25 Divinity Value!]
[You acquire divine positions like 'War', 'Combat', 'Command Art'...]
The attribute panel's prompt appeared, making Fang Xing believe that the War God was truly dead.
"What did His last words mean?"
"And that formidable divine power dispel magic earlier, it doesn't resemble the War God's handiwork, more like that of the 'God of Empire and Kings'?"
A thought occurred to Fang Xing, then the intuition from being both a martial artist and a true god frantically alerted him!
