Chapter 143 - 138: Grand Array Annihilated! Flood Dragon Dao Soldiers

Chapter 143: Chapter 138: Grand Array Annihilated! Flood Dragon Dao Soldiers

"Did you do this? Are all of these our Qin Family’s War Beasts?"

Qin Mohe stared in utter disbelief at the blazing flames raging across the sky. Even from thousands of meters away, he could feel the scorching heat wave rushing against his face.

Even a Primordial Mansion Realm cultivator couldn’t unleash such a terrifying bombardment!

A quantitative change had led to a qualitative leap!

The Blood Sea Array that enveloped more than half of Bishui City, along with the bloody mist jointly formed by the Three-Eyed Divine Statue, had grown incredibly thin.

The combined eruption of 1,800 Heaven-Burning Fire Crows unleashed a power even greater than the combined attacks of two Primordial Mansion Realm cultivators and hundreds of Qi Sea Realm experts!

Looking as if he had seen a ghost, Qin Wenyuan rapidly descended from the sky and landed in front of Qin Yu.

He knew that Qin Yu had a hidden force at his disposal, but wasn’t it only supposed to be four Qi Sea Realm War Beasts and a few hundred in the Qi and Blood Realm?

How was this merely a few hundred?

Even though they were separated by more than ten miles and the beasts were situated ten thousand meters up in the sky, it was high noon on a crystal-clear day. With his keen eyesight, how could he possibly miss the giant flaming beasts hovering in the air?

A staggering 1,800 Heaven-Burning Fire Crows, each boasting a wingspan of over thirty meters!

Flanking them were even more Thunder Rocs and Four-winged Black Thorn Eagles. A rough estimate put their numbers well over three thousand!

This was an army of at least five thousand Qi and Blood Realm War Beasts!

What kind of terrifying power was this?

"That’s right! To think that the Heaven-Burning Fire Crows couldn’t break this array with a single round of bombing... Then we’ll just have another round!" Qin Yu gave a slight nod, locking his gaze onto Mo Yuzi in the sky.

"Be careful, the power is too great! One wrong move, and the entire city will be burned to ashes!" Qin Mohe couldn’t help but warn.

"Rest assured," Qin Yu replied.

High above, the Three-Eyed Divine Statue hovering over Mo Yuzi’s head frantically surged with bloody mist in a desperate bid to stabilize the array. Meanwhile, far in the distance, the abdomens of the 1,800 Heaven-Burning Fire Crows split open once more.

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!

The beautiful yet deadly Flame Blade Insects screeched as they flew over once again!

Mo Yuzi’s expression drastically changed.

Enduring the first round of attacks head-on had already left him heavily injured. What would happen if he took another round?

Chen Jianqiu, Wan Yongchang, and the hundreds of Qi Sea Powerhouses from various factions were all struck with terror. Even they felt a deep sense of dread at this level of bombardment.

"Watch out! This Blood Sea Array won’t hold!" Wan Yongchang couldn’t help but shout at the top of his lungs.

The situation was incredibly comical.

At this very moment, they were actually worried that the Blood Sea Array would fail to withstand the bombardment, causing the fiery explosions to rain down upon them.

Chen Jianqiu looked toward the Qin Residence, fixing his gaze on Qin Wenyuan.

He had no idea where these Heaven-Burning Fire Crows came from. But could he possibly fail to recognize the Thunder Rocs flying alongside them?

Did the Qin Family actually possess such terrifying strength?

How much had they been hiding within this Wilderness Mountain Range?

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Mo Yuzi panicked. He even considered abandoning the Grand Array to flee outright, but stationed at the core of the Blood Sea Array, how could escaping be that easy?

"Damn it! Go!"

He let out a low roar as dozens of dark silhouettes shot out from his sleeves. These foot-long Thousand-legged Centipedes had been meticulously cultivated by him, and even Qi Sea Martial Artists would find them hard to fend off.

While these Flame Monster Insects packed an immense punch, their speed was far too slow. As long as he detonated them prematurely, the resulting chain explosion would be enough to annihilate all incoming attacks!

Simultaneously, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi around him coalesced wildly, transforming into countless fist-sized ice crystals that followed closely behind like a ferocious storm.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The Flame Blade Insects instantly collided with the Thousand-legged Centipedes, erupting into deafening explosions.

Yet, in the very next moment, Mo Yuzi’s face fell.

He watched as the rapidly approaching Flame Blade Insects abruptly scattered in midair, maximizing the distance between themselves. And the Flame Blade Insects caught within the blast radius did not trigger the chain explosion he had envisioned.

Aside from those that actively self-destructed against the Thousand-legged Centipedes, the remaining ones engulfed in the blast either forced their way through the ice crystals or plummeted straight down, turning into charred heaps of flesh.

The rest of the Flame Blade Insects continued to relentlessly crash into the Blood Sea Array, bursting into clusters of scorching flames.

They were as dazzling as miniature suns!

Solar Flare!

Accompanied by an earth-shattering crack, a corner of the Blood Sea Array—which had already been teetering on the edge of collapse—caved in violently.

Suffering the array’s backlash, Mo Yuzi spewed a large mouthful of blood, his aura instantly withering away.

"This is impossible!"

Exasperated and utterly desperate, he noticed that over a hundred surviving Flame Blade Insects didn’t detonate after the array broke. Instead, they locked straight onto him and flew over at breakneck speeds!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Plumes of mushroom clouds from the midair explosions completely engulfed Mo Yuzi.

SWOOSH!

A streak of bloody flowing light shot out from the fiery blast, hastily fleeing toward the Bishui River.

"The Qin Family! What a formidable Qin Family! My Blood Demon Sect will fight you until one of us is dead!"

Mo Yuzi let out a shrill, piercing roar as he escaped.

The Flame Blade Insects’ attacks were highly effective against arrays, but for a Primordial Mansion Realm cultivator, the explosive force was too dispersed. While it left him in an incredibly wretched state, it couldn’t inflict any fatal harm.

Even so, he didn’t dare to linger!

Aside from Chen Jianqiu charging at him with an Ice Longsword in hand, there was also a massive flock of Thunder Rocs and Four-winged Black Thorn Eagles flying in tandem with the Flame Blade Insects!

Watching the fleeing Mo Yuzi, Qin Yu sneered coldly.

Fight until one of them is dead?

He and the Blood Demon Sect were already locked in a battle to the death!

Failing to kill a snake leaves endless trouble in its wake!

This Mo Yuzi had to die as well!

The abdomens of all the Heaven-Burning Fire Crows split open once again. This time, however, they didn’t release the super-sized Flame Blade Insects. Instead, they unleashed a swarm of Flame Blade Insects roughly the size of a basketball.

Those super-sized Flame Blade Insects required far too much energy. Even if the Heaven-Burning Fire Crows had prepared ample energy reserves in advance, they simply couldn’t sustain too many shots. At most, they could launch three attacks before needing to replenish, and cultivating them took a significant amount of time.

The designated role of the Heaven-Burning Fire Crows was bombardment. Their melee capabilities were heavily nerfed, but their long-range bombardment prowess had been massively upgraded.

Not only could they effortlessly launch strikes from dozens of miles away, but the Microscopic Insect Nests in their abdomens could also breed conventional Flame Blade Insects in a short span of time, forming an overwhelming, large-scale assault.

In an instant, tens of thousands of Flame Blade Insects plummeted toward the Bishui River like a torrential rain of fiery meteors.

ROAR—

Amidst the echoing dragon’s roar, the Bishui River Dragon King—boasting a camel’s head, rabbit’s eyes, ox’s ears, and a snake’s neck—surged into the sky, carrying a boundless torrent of water along with him.

Behind him, dozens of Qi Sea Realm Great Demons bellowed as they unleashed a myriad of attacks, blasting toward the rain of fire blanketing the sky.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Consecutive explosions erupted across the Bishui River. Though the individual power of each blast was merely on par with an ordinary outbreak of Qi and Blood like a Dragon, it was a synchronized volley of over ten thousand strikes!

The fiery explosions and surging currents neutralized one another.

Even though the torrent blocked most of the destructive force, the entire surface of the river still seemed to catch fire. Countless Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals floating on the water’s surface were reduced to scattered, lifeless corpses.

"Mo Yuzi! What the hell is going on here?!"

The Bishui River Dragon King roared furiously as he glared at the pathetically fleeing Mo Yuzi.

When the Heaven-Burning Fire Crows initiated their attack, the Bishui River Dragon King had just commanded his army of tens of thousands of underwater demons to violently crash into the Nine Heavens Sealing Demon Formation laid down by Demon Suppression General Zhang Han.

Monstrous waves surged high above the river.

As densely packed Shrimp Soldiers, Crab Generals, and all manner of aquatic demons swarmed forward, the Nine Heavens Sealing Demon Formation—anchored by nine Flying Ships—immediately began to totter on the brink of collapse.

Just like how the bombardment of the 1,800 Heaven-Burning Fire Crows had shattered the Blood Sea Array, with the Bishui River Dragon King wielding his torrential currents—his power practically rivaling that of the Myriad Phenomena Realm—coupled with his tens of thousands of underwater demons, the Nine Heavens Sealing Demon Formation couldn’t hold on for much longer.

Some crab and frog-type demons even bypassed the river blockade by scurrying along the banks, charging directly toward Bishui City.

Victory was clearly within their grasp. Yet, the sudden appearance of the massive flock of flying demons in the sky had inflicted heavy casualties upon his subordinates!

The Blood Sea Array shrouding the Bishui River had been utterly destroyed prematurely, and the Blood Sacrifice Array they had prepared in advance was thoroughly ruined before it could even be activated.

The situation within Bishui City had clearly spiraled out of control.

How could he not be furious?

"Ao Qin, this is an unexpected accident! These War Beasts must have been tamed by the Celestial Wind Qin Family, but we had no idea they were hiding their strength so deeply.

"The Demon Suppression Bureau seems to have received word beforehand, dispatching quite a few experts over here.

"However, I still have a trump card up my sleeve. If we join forces, there’s still a chance!" Mo Yuzi’s face was grim as he spoke, continuously coughing up blood.

The shattering of the Blood Sea Array and its subsequent backlash had left him severely wounded.

"Trash! They’re just a bunch of Qi and Blood Realm demons. Not a single one of them is even in the Qi Sea Realm, yet they still managed to beat you into such a pathetic state. The Blood Demon Sect is nothing more than this!

"To think I actually collaborated with the likes of you!

"Mo Yuzi!

"Hurry up and set up the Blood Sacrifice Array again to break the seal! We must succeed this time!" The Bishui River Dragon King, Ao Qin, roared in rage. He then turned to glare at a green-faced, red-haired Yaksha General wielding a Water-Splitting Fork behind him and growled.

An arrow once loosed cannot be recalled. He had already made his move, and there was no turning back now.

Only by completing the blood sacrifice and shattering that seal would he have a glimmer of survival.

"Sha Polang! Go! Slaughter them all!"

"Yes, sir!"

The Yaksha General, Sha Polang, who exuded the aura of a Peak of Qi Sea expert, cast a contemptuous glance at Mo Yuzi and unleashed a thunderous roar.

Immediately after, over a dozen Qi Sea Realm Shrimp Soldiers and Crab Generals donning bizarre armor, along with nearly a hundred Qi and Blood Realm demons, burst out of the water behind him.

Every piece of their armor was inscribed with ancient, complex runes that channeled the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.

Dao Soldiers!

Since the Insect Swarm also utilized the Dao Soldier Secret Technique, Qin Yu instantly recognized that this was a higher-tier Dao Soldier Secret Technique compared to the *Wind and Thunder Cavalry*.

A full force of a hundred Dao Soldiers.

The Bishui River Dragon Palace wasn’t comprised of ordinary demons; they had their own inheritances as well. Inheritances that were vastly more powerful than those possessed by ordinary major factions.

Moments later, all the Dao Soldiers assembled into an array, drawing upon the might of heaven and earth. A faint, dragon-shaped phantom materialized behind them before they took flight into thin air.

They charged straight toward the Heaven-Burning Fire Crows in the distant sky.

Evidently, the successive barrages had taught the Bishui River Dragon King exactly how devastating they were, prompting him to prioritize their annihilation.

The Thunder Rocs and Four-winged Black Thorn Eagles guarding the Heaven-Burning Fire Crows sprang into action.

BOOM!

Thunder clapped, and lightning flashed across the sky.

Under the command of the Insect Nest, two thousand Thunder Rocs formed twenty combat squads of a hundred birds each. They unleashed a synchronized Thunderous Assault toward the rapidly advancing Flood Dragon Dao Soldiers.

The entire sky was practically blanketed in roaring thunderbolts.

KILL! KILL! KILL!
