Chapter 671 - Attack
"Boom!" Immortal Emperor's aura exploded. He looked threatening to the two Dao Surpremes and said, "Since you are eager to fight us, we'll give you a proper fight. Everyone, activate the formation!"
The eleven supremes immediately got into position with Emperor Immortal by the middle. They looked grand and imposing as they formed a triangular shape.
Then, they bit their thumbs and released a blood out of it. Soon, the blood flew over their heads and bursted energy particles around.
Ancestor Wang and Ancestor Hong knew something big would be created. Thus, how could they let it? They immediately fired a flame ball to stop them from completing the formation.
However, an entire legion suddenly rushed to protect the supremes. It seemed that they were tasked in case this kind of emergency appeared.
The ancestors kept on firing flame balls towards the enemy in attempt to break their defense and kill the Dao Supremes. Unfortunately, although the process of creating the formation was slow due to being injured, the flame balls couldn't reach them through.
"Boom!" Finally, the formation was completed, revealing a humongous bow and arrow that big as the tallest mountain of this world. The arrow in it spanned several miles with a power to annihilate the entire realm.
"To think that God King has also completed this formation." Ancestor Hong's expression was grave. He was very familiar with this formation and said, "Wang, we cannot let that arrow attack the empire or else it will be the end of us."
The empire had a steady and strong foundation for standing for trillions of years. They also had the resources to survive after a calamity. However, it was a different story when three empires were trying to devour them. As a matter of fact, many top kingdoms were also awiting for their chance.
As Ancestor Hong was extremely familiar with the enemy's formation, he knew everything would be over once the arrow penetrated the defense of the empire. By that moment, the foundation of the empire would crumble and even if they survive this calamity, the decline was imminent and would be very hard to stand back up again.
"I know. We have to do something about it." Ancestor Wang spoke in solemn tone. How could they let these greedy bastards do whatever they wanted? "I'll be using my Supreme Blood to activate a defensive treasure."
"Okay, I'm on the offense then." Ancestor Hong nodded, "But Wang, just use a decent amount. No need to use so many, you have a limited blood and your body cannot take it if you lose too much."
"I know, you don't have to tell me that." Ancestor Wang chuckled. A small and golden statue of a phoenix appeared on his palms and he put several drops of supreme blood on it.
Emperor Immortal saw this and knew what they're doing. He couldn't help but sneer, "Futile resistance. You're just prolonging your suffering. How about we end this and let that successor come out from hiding now? He is the successor yet he's cowering in fear when the empire is on the edge. Pathetic."
"Our Phoenix Empire doesn't remember giving you permission to slander His Majesty." Ancestor Hong immediately activated his treasure, Myriad Dark Cauldron. Then, it created wild flames that attacked the twelve supremes.
"Agh!" Although the flames couldn't kill them, it made them lose concentration, leading to the formation getting broken.
"Bunch of idiots! Reactivate the formation!" Emperor Immortal cursed out loud. He didn't expect that the flames could still touch them. After all, they were under the defense of the strongest defense and offense formation created by God King himself. This formation alone had been revised millions of times before it reached almost perfection. Yet, they couldn't use it properly. How shameful was that?
The supremes gritted their teeth and used their blood to activate the formation again. Ancestor Hong released another batch of flames. However, Emperor Immortal already made preparations for this. A light tower appeared all of a sudden, blocking the flames.
Seeing that the tower was effective, Emperor Immortal shouted, "Aim using the arrow. Remember, you have to pierce the coordinates I have given you. That is where their dao source is. Moreover, there is no room for failure."
This attack should be successful as they could only use this arrow once for a day. The qi it needed was extravagant that only Dao Supremes could handle it. Although it was only a single shot, it carried many opportunities for those waiting to devour the empire.
"Wang, be ready." Ancestor Hong knew that he couldn't stop it now, "The arrow is coming and for sure, they will direct at the place where the dao source is. You know that we cannot let that happen, right?"
"Hong, can you please calm down? Just trust me. Of course, I won't let them. Besides, His Majesty is there, stabilizing his realm. How could something happen with the dao source? At worst, the buildings around will collapse." Ancestor Wang said calmly.
"But His Majesty is meditating state. We cannot depend it on His Majesty." Ancestor Hong sighed, "If you don't to do it properly, I'll do it."
"Hah, as if you still have more energy left." Ancestor Wang snorted, "You've already aged by many times. If I let you do the job, you might die."
It was true. Activating the cauldron had already created a massive effect on Ancestor Hong's body. Nevertheless, it wasn't harmful but if he continued, his life would be in danger.
"Then do your job properly. Unlike using the cauldron, activating your statue won't affect you that much using your blood." Ancestor Hong said in a stern manner.
"Are you done saying your goodbyes?" Suddenly, Emperor Immortal interrupted and smirked, "Or should I give you more time? Your empire will die in a few minutes now, so use your precious time appropriately."
"Immortal, you're quite of a clown, no? Just attack and let's see how powerful your arrow is." Ancestor Wang smirked. He already activated the treasure and it would be used once the enemy attacked.
"Since you're eager to die now, it's a shame if I don't accommodate you.." The emperor sneered and commanded the supremes to attack.
