Chapter 694 - 694 Cannibalistic World (1)
694 Cannibalistic World (1)
After a long time, Xu Qing looked at the human defense line.
A large golden net that connected the world cut into the battlefield like a huge curtain.
Regardless of whether it was the sky, the ground, or all the methods of the Holy Wave Race, they were all blocked by the golden net outside the human race’s fourth defense line.
This huge golden net was extremely vast. Not only did it connect to the world from top to bottom, but it also extended to an endless range in both left and right.
If one could see the entire border of Fenghai County, they would be able to see how large the range was. It connected to the northern battlefield, and also covered the entire border between Fenghai County and the Holy Wave Race.
Here, in the golden net, on the fourth ravine of the human race’s defensive line, countless defensive forces were built. A large number of military tents spread out here.
The countless human cultivators here were exhausted, but were constantly building and maintaining this place.
Rows of powerful war magic artifacts stood endlessly at the edge of the ravine, pointing in the direction of the Holy Wave Race.
There were hundreds of thousands of them and they were all shining now, causing the void in front of them to distort. There were even spatial cracks that appeared and deafening rumbling sounds kept echoing.
This wasn’t an explosive sound but the sound of accumulation.
The explosions were not visible spells that could be seen with the naked eye; they were specifically aimed at countering the power of the black snow’s power.
Once they were fully activated, it could make the black snow of the Holy Wave Race lose the ability to combine and melt in advance.
This ubiquitous rumbling was already the norm at the front line.
There were also hundreds of Nihility cultivators sitting cross-legged in the golden net. They were the controllers of Taboo magic treasures. They would borrow the power of the Taboo to interfere with the Holy Wave Race’s rhombus-shaped magic artifacts.
At the same time, they also had the mission to mark the harvesters and send cultivators to kill them.
There were also extremely tall war puppets on the ground.
These puppets carried the characteristics of the human race. Any one of them was like a hill. They stood on array formations and each of them required a large number of cultivators to activate it together.
What was most soul-stirring were the nine huge Emperor Swords!
Nine huge swords that were as tall as the sky were floating in the air.
As they emitted supreme dignity, they also erupted with a soul-stirring deterrence. Moreover, upon closer inspection, one could see that these nine Emperor Swords were formed from countless Emperor Swords.
They could be used as a whole to intimidate. They were the powerful trump cards of the human race in this war.
There was also a huge Dao bell in the sky.
This bell was bestowed by the Imperial Capital’s Sword Holding Headquarters the moment the Fenghai County’s Sword Holding Palace was built.
It was originally hung in the Sword Holding Palace but now, it was placed on the battlefield. This was because it was… a supreme treasure of Fenghai County’s Sword Holding Palace. Back then, it was also the foundation power of the Sword Holding Palace like the Prison Department.
Its effect was not only external but also internal
Externally, the bell could chime and kill everything, but internally, it was used to awaken.
Hundreds of thousands of bronze coffins were around the huge Dao bell. Every coffin had layers of seals drawn on them.
The people lying inside weren’t dead.
There were men and women, old and young. They were those who had been specially prepared for war by the Sword Holding Palace over the years!
Most of them had lived in relative peace for a long time, and hadn’t used their Emperor Swords when they were at the end of their lifespan. Hence, they requested to be put to sleep and fuse the Emperor Sword into their lives.
They were all waiting for the moment when they would be awakened and slash down the sword they had cultivated with their life.
There were also people who knew that their cultivation had reached the end, so they were willing to be sealed for Fenghai County and nurture the Emperor Sword.
Every one of them knew that the moment they woke up would definitely be the most dangerous moment in Fenghai County.
Now, 30% of the hundreds of thousands of coffins were empty.
The Sword Holders among them had already been awakened in the previous battle. Without any hesitation, they slashed down the last sword strike formed by their lives.
As all of this was reflected in Xu Qing’s eyes, dozens of figures flew out of the fourth wave of defense in Fenghai County and headed straight for the army Xu Qing and the others were in.
The person in the lead was none other than the Deputy Palace Master of the Sword Holding Palace.
The fact that he personally came to welcome them had already made his attitude clear.
His exhausted expression was filled with excitement. Such emotional fluctuations were rare for a great cultivator at his level.
Kong Xianglong was also in the crowd. He was injured and his spirit was very low. Only when he saw Xu Qing did he force a smile.
When Xu Qing saw this scene, his heart sank and he had a bad premonition.
However, now wasn’t the time to ask. After the Sword Holding Palace’s Deputy Palace Master rapidly approached, his voice echoed.
“Brother Mingyi, Brother Gongze!”
The great elders of the Sword Holding Courts from the Yinghuang Province and Quzhao Province also quickly walked out and bowed to the Deputy Palace Master.
“You’ve come just in time, very timely!” The Deputy Palace Master took a deep breath and suppressed the excitement in his heart before immediately speaking.
“The Palace Master has ordered!”
“All the Nihility cultivators and leaders of the various sects in Quzhao Province and Yinghuang Province, head to the main tent immediately. The Palace Master has summoned you!”
“The rest of you, set up camp on the spot and wait for the arrangements.”
The Deputy Palace Master cupped his fists and bowed heavily to the humans from the two provinces. After that, his gaze landed on Xu Qing and a strange glint appeared on his face.
