However, just as the stronghold's forces were about to launch an all-out counterattack, the giant bat in the distant windstorm narrowed its eyes and opened its ghastly mouth. In the blink of an eye, another sound wave exploded out from it.
This sound wave was extremely sharp. Wherever it passed, it was like a gust of wind. Big Beard and the two Foundation Establishment cultivators trembled violently and spat out blood.
At the same time, the two fleeing Foundation Establishment Cultivators suddenly turned and took advantage of the opportunity to attack. They didn't pause for even a moment. Obviously, at the same time that the big-bearded man had been plotting against them, they had also been plotting against the stronghold. Their timing was exquisite, and as soon as they attacked, the big-bearded man and the two Foundation Establishment Cultivators were in grave danger.
"Damn it! Why isn't help here yet? " Chen Yutong's expression changed. He clenched his fists tightly, but there was nothing he could do. Although he was at the peak of the True Breath realm, the gap between him and the Foundation Establishment cultivators was still too great.
Wang Baole's expression was also dark. The warriors around him were similarly silent. They had just been pleasantly surprised when the situation suddenly changed. This unpredictable battle situation made everyone feel depressed.
"The main problem is that giant bat!" Wang Baole's eyes flashed coldly. From the moment the bat appeared, it was obvious that it was the leader. Although it had only attacked twice, the first time it had caused the array and the Fire God Cannon to malfunction, tilting the tide of the battle. The second time it had affected the Foundation Establishment cultivators, causing the stronghold's morale to plummet!
"Unless we kill this giant bat!" Wang Baole was furious. He knew that only by killing the bat could they affect the outcome of the battle. Otherwise, if help did not arrive, they would definitely lose the battle.
At this thought, Wang Baole's expression became ferocious. He knew that his level of cultivation was not high enough, and the only thing he could rely on now … was this broken Fire God Cannon.
"It's not that there's no way … There's still one last trick …" Looking at the Fire God Cannon and then at the bat in the distance, Wang Baole gritted his teeth. His eyes were filled with madness.
"Since it's already like this, let's give it a shot!"
"Senior Brother Chen, give me the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. I need to improve this Vulcan Cannon!" Wang Baole said hurriedly. He raised his right hand and pressed it against the Vulcan Cannon again.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yutong narrowed his eyes and looked at Wang Baole. When Wang Baole had gone to change the inscriptions, he could see that the other party's attainments in Dharmic Armaments were extraordinary. Although the other party was not as good as Chen Yutong's, in some areas, he had already surpassed Chen Yutong by quite a bit.
Hence, she didn't say anything else and immediately retreated to protect Wang Baole. At that moment, there were many Armament cultivators from the four major Dao Colleges who had also arrived. Under Chen Yutong's arrangements, they were surprised by Wang Baole's actions and some of them still had doubts in their hearts. If it had been any other time, they would have reprimanded him. However, in this crisis, there was no time to say anything. After all, this was the Fire God Cannon that Wang Baole was in charge of, and he had persevered until the very end.
Hence, they didn't say anything and chose to stand guard around him.
As for the warriors, they did the same. Just like that, under their layers of protection, Wang Baole, who was in the center, raised his right hand with a crazed look in his eyes and took out a large amount of forging materials!
These forging materials were just a cover. Wang Baole's real goal was … hidden within these forging materials, hidden inconspicuously … the Armament Sand!
After refining his scabbard to third-grade, Wang Baole didn't refine the Armament Sand as frequently as before. However, he still refined it from time to time, and now he had accumulated about a few thousand grains.
He really had no other choice. At this moment, nearly seventy percent of the Fire God Cannon's inscriptions were broken. Even if he replaced it, it would definitely fail after one or two shots.
At the same time, although the Fire God Cannon was powerful, it couldn't hit the giant bat with its shooting range. As such, Wang Baole's only option was to try his luck with the Armament Sand!
"Give me a burst of luck!" Wang Baole prayed in his heart. Breathing rapidly, he immediately merged the forging materials into the Fire God Cannon. The key point was to control the Armament Sand and merge it with the Fire God Cannon.
This was the first time he had used the Armament Sand to modify this kind of composite spirit treasure. Wang Baole nervously manipulated the Armament Sand with all his might, gradually dividing it into hundreds of portions and merging them into the spirit kernel inscriptions of each spirit treasure. In an instant, the inscriptions of all the spirit treasures underwent an uncontrollable change.
Wang Baole himself didn't know what the result of this change would be. At this moment, as he watched the Armament Sand merge, all the inscriptions shone, and even the broken inscriptions actually merged together to form new inscriptions.
Even more astonishing was that on the spirit kernel, there were even some originally hidden inscriptions that Wang Baole couldn't see. The appearance of these hidden inscriptions shook Wang Baole to the core.
He had once heard people say on the Spiritual Net that on some extremely important and powerful magic treasures, there were hidden inscriptions that were like passwords. Unless it was the refiner, no one could see through them, and thus there was no way to imitate them.
At this moment, these hidden inscriptions actually appeared before Wang Baole's eyes. Looking at the large number of broken inscriptions, Wang Baole's thoughts raced. He suddenly understood that although he had replaced the inscriptions previously, he couldn't maintain them for long. It was because he had only replaced the visible inscriptions. As for the hidden inscriptions, he couldn't see them and naturally couldn't replace them. That was why he couldn't completely restore them!
But now … the Armament Sand was like the key to unlocking all the passwords. It had opened the internal core of the Fire God Cannon, revealed its hidden inscriptions, and stimulated its full potential!
Under Wang Baole's observation, it was as if there were no more secrets within the Fire God Cannon. Wang Baole's mind was enlightened, and he had a deeper understanding of the internal structure of the Fire God Cannon. Even his grasp of the inscriptions was much more refined than before.
But he didn't have the time to comprehend it. He could only remember it in his heart. Seeing that the fusion of the Armament Sand had ended, he couldn't immediately analyze its effects. After all, the Fire God Cannon was too complicated. He could only grit his teeth and try to aim the Fire God Cannon at the giant bat. He immediately fired it, intending to see its effects through actual combat.
"You must succeed!" Wang Baole roared in his heart. The moment the Fire God Cannon fired, the roar shook the heavens!
It didn't look any different from when it had been fired. Even as the beam of light exploded, it looked exactly the same. It flew across the ground in the direction of the Beast Tide, as if it was going straight for the giant bat in the storm in the sky.
Chen Yutong and the others, as well as the warriors, looked over nervously. Even the giant bat immediately turned its head to look at the beam of light that was heading straight for it.
However, just as everyone was nervous and Wang Baole was praying, the beam of light that shot into the sky suddenly stopped in mid-air midway and transformed into a huge ball of light before landing on the ground …
The reversal of events stunned everyone. Even the giant bat was taken aback. Clearly, it hadn't expected the Fire God Cannon to transform into a ball of light.
While everyone was still in shock, Wang Baole let out a cry of anguish as the ball of light fell into the midst of the Beast Tide. But as soon as it landed, a sound that surpassed all the other Fire God Cannons, shocking the heavens, and causing the earth to tremble like rolling waves. It was a monstrous explosion!!
The sound of the explosion caused the heavens and earth to change colors. The wind and clouds were swept back, and a strong gale swept across the area. The Foundation Establishment cultivators from both sides who were fighting in the sky turned pale with fright.
The warriors where Wang Baole was, including the Armament cultivators from the four Dao Colleges, as well as Chen Yutong and the others, all cried out in shock at this moment.
"This … this …"
Wang Baole was dumbfounded as well. He watched as the glowing sphere landed on the ground and immediately unleashed waves of light. The force of the waves was so great that it was shocking. It was as if a dozen Fire God Cannons had been fired at the same time, forming a sea of light. Everywhere it passed, the ferocious beasts were wiped out … looking from afar, amidst the endless Beast Tide, a large empty area appeared. There … were no living ferocious beasts, only a bloody mess of flesh and blood on the ground!
The lethality of the attack was so shocking that even the two sides who were fighting on the ground were shocked by the tremors.
In an instant, all the Armament cultivators from the four Dao Colleges, including Chen Yutong, looked at Wang Baole, who was standing there in a daze. Their breathing quickened, and their expressions were extremely moved.
It was also at this moment that the giant bat in the distant storm suddenly looked at Wang Baole and released a sound wave from its mouth. As soon as the sound wave was released, Big Beard and the other two trembled violently, as if their bodies were being pricked by needles. Their cultivation levels were suppressed, and under the attack of the two Foundation Establishment Ferocious Beasts, they were in even more danger.
Not only that, but the Ferocious Beasts around Wang Baole's platform seemed to have received an order. Their eyes turned red as they roared and charged towards Wang Baole with no regard for their lives. It was as if they wanted to destroy this place even if they had to die together with him!
"Defend with all your might!" Chen Yutong's eyes shone brightly. Since Wang Baole had proven himself with his actions, then as his senior brother, he naturally had to stand firm. Therefore, as he spoke, he also released his cultivation and took the lead to meet the Ferocious Beasts head-on.
The other Dharmic Armament cultivators were also shaken by Wang Baole's cannon blast. They gathered all their thoughts and dispersed immediately, joining the other Dharmic Armament cultivators in battle against the beasts that were charging towards them from all directions.
In an instant, the battle was extremely intense. There were too many Ferocious Beasts, and they were all in a frenzy. Deaths occurred every moment as they roared!
In the midst of the devastation, Wang Baole was panting heavily, and his eyes were bloodshot. However, when he tried, he realized that the Fire God Cannon could not be fired. It seemed that it only had the power to fire that one shot just now. This made him anxious. He saw that the situation around him was getting worse and worse, and the Ferocious Beasts were charging madly, blotting out the sky and covering the earth.
Wang Baole's eyes were filled with madness as he took out the Armament Sand again!
Previously, he had not tested whether the Armament Sand could be modified a second time. There was no time to think. He immediately infused the Armament Sand into the Fire God Cannon.
After testing it out, Wang Baole was excited to find that the Armament Sand … could be modified again!
However, there were too many uncertainties in this modification. After the modification was completed, the Fire God Cannon trembled, its insides unstable, as if on the verge of collapse. Frightened, Wang Baole quickly took out more Armament Sand and modified it again.
Finally, after five modifications in a row, the battered Fire God Cannon suddenly shook violently like never before. It was as if a terrifying power was raging inside. Bursts of spiritual energy seemed to surge in from all directions. However, the inscriptions were stable, and there were no signs of self-destruction or malfunction.
"It's done!" Wang Baole shouted. He jerked his head up and slapped the Fire God Cannon with his right hand!
"Fire!!" Roared Wang Baole. Instantly, a shocking beam of light shot out from within the Fire God Cannon!
This beam of light was far, far more powerful than the previous one. In fact, it was impossible to compare. It was no longer white, but rather, blue. As it shot out, the mere ripples it sent out caused countless birds in the area to be vaporized, shrieking miserably!
Colors flashed in the sky, and the beam of light became the focal point of the battlefield. It shot out in a straight line … directly toward the mouth of the giant bat, which was in the middle of unleashing the sound waves.
