The beam of light moved with incredible speed. Any beasts that got in its way were instantly ripped to shreds. Even those who were touched by the beam of light coughed up blood and were either killed or seriously injured.
That was especially so now that night was about to arrive. The blue beam of light shook the entire area, turning into a dazzling light. Its speed was shocking, and its range was incredibly long. With a howl, it shot through the battlefield, bringing with it a destructive will as it closed in on the giant bat within the windstorm.
The giant bat had been in the middle of opening its mouth to emit sound waves to interfere with the Foundation Establishment battle. However, as of this moment, its entire body went cold, and its eyes filled with astonishment. If it had hair on its body, it would definitely be standing on end. It immediately closed its mouth and tried to evade. However, even as it tried to evade, the beam of light, which was much faster than it, shot right past it ….
It missed ….
Although it missed, the shockwaves spread out, causing the bat to tremble violently. Blood sprayed out of its mouth, and its heart filled with astonishment and terror. It had never imagined that, despite being so far away, and having calculated the range of the Fire God Cannon, it would still be so close to being killed!
Trembling, the giant bat's eyes turned red. It lifted its head up and let out a piercing shriek. Its gaze was now fixed on Wang Baole, and its killing intent soared to the heavens.
Wang Baole's Fire God Cannon posed such a great threat to it that it felt like death itself!
That was especially so considering the possibility that it would have collided head-on with the beam of light if it had been just a tad faster. That made the intelligent giant bat even more terrified. In its panic, it screeched sharply, and the beasts surrounding Wang Baole's Fire God Cannon platform grew even more frenzied. They charged towards the cannon platform in a frenzy.
The two Foundation Establishment beasts up above were also very anxious. However, they couldn't leave. Therefore, under the influence of their roars and the giant bat's shriek, the beasts and giants in the tide of beasts began to go crazy. Ignoring the surrounding cultivators and warriors, they leaped into the air toward Wang Baole.
From afar, Wang Baole's shot was like poking a hornet's nest, causing all the ferocious beasts to go crazy. Chen Yutong and the surrounding warriors suddenly felt the pressure increase.
At the same time, the three Foundation Establishment cultivators up in midair were completely shaken. They knew that this was an opportunity, and that the giant bat had no time to interfere. Therefore, the three Foundation Establishment cultivators leaped into action, turning the tables on the two Foundation Establishment cultivators. At the same time, the bearded man's voice echoed out across the battlefield.
"Everyone, protect this Fire God Platform!"
"Wang Baole, as long as you can interfere with that giant bat, you'll be the one who did the most meritorious service. If you can really kill it, then I'll personally give you a huge reward!!"
As Big Beard spoke, all the warriors and cultivators on the ground rushed towards Wang Baole's Fire God Platform. They tried their best to stop Wang Baole, while Chen Yutong and the others threw caution to the wind and attacked crazily.
In the blink of an eye, the Fire God Platform was filled with fierce fighting!
As for the giant bat in the sky, it was obvious that its Cultivation base was not at the Foundation Establishment stage. Otherwise, no matter how cautious it was, it would have had plenty of opportunities to attack just now. Obviously, the giant bat had shocking innate magical abilities, and was able to provide support and command to its fullest potential.
Now that it was terrified, the giant bat didn't dare to stay in one place for too long. Its body swayed as it flew back and forth, kicking up a massive windstorm that obscured its vision.
However, it didn't dare to get too close to Wang Baole. After all, it was still shaken by the cannon blast from moments ago. Therefore, it had chosen to stay off in the distance, hoping to rely on the power of the ferocious beasts to eliminate any threat.
Although it would take some time, as far as the bat was concerned, it was the safest course of action.
And that was exactly what happened. Wang Baole was surrounded by raging slaughter. As for Wang Baole, he was on the verge of going crazy. The fact that the cannon had missed had nothing to do with him. After all, there were too many unknowns about the Fire God Cannon, and it was very difficult to control it as freely as before.
Wang Baole had heard Big Beardy's words, but he didn't have time to think about them. The fighting was fierce, and death seemed imminent. Taking a few deep breaths, he didn't dare to be distracted. Pouring all of his spiritual power into the cannon, he switched from automatic to manual. In order to be absolutely sure, he released his mosquitoes, which had been destroyed many times before.
The mosquitoes flew out toward the giant bat. Thanks to their vision, Wang Baole was able to see everything that was happening up above. It was a 360-degree view, with no blind spots. As of this moment, Wang Baole could see everything clearly.
However, the giant bat was simply too fast. Furthermore, it was covered by the windstorm, making it impossible for Wang Baole to lock onto it. Looking around anxiously at the desperate situation, Wang Baole was on the verge of going crazy.
"I can't rush it! I can't rush it!
I need a chance!! " Wang Baole took deep breaths, forcing himself to calm down. The Fire God Cannon was once again activated, and the terrifying aura inside grew more intense. The spiritual energy in the area was sucked in, and Wang Baole's heart gradually grew calm. The only thing that remained in his eyes was the giant bat, which was moving through the sky.
The Fire God Cannon was now vibrating so violently that Wang Baole couldn't pay any attention to it. His breathing gradually stabilized, and his vision, which had been created by the mosquitoes, began to shrink ….
He waited silently for his chance. If it didn't come, then Wang Baole wasn't sure whether or not he would choose to fire the cannon. If he didn't, then the threat to the giant bat would be even greater. The Foundation Establishment battle in the sky would decide everything. As long as Big Beardy and the other two won, the tide would turn.
However, the price would be high.
However, at that moment, in Wang Baole's vision, two rainbows suddenly appeared in the distant sky. Behind the rainbows were seven to eight enormous cruisers that were rapidly approaching.
They were the reinforcements from the seventh primary stronghold. The two beams of light were Foundation Establishment Cultivators. Their faces were pale, and they were clearly injured. However, they continued to charge forward with determination. Obviously, the teleportation portals between the strongholds had been destroyed, and they could only rely on airships to send reinforcements.
As soon as they appeared, Wang Baole's eyes lit up!
"Chance!!" Wang Baole held his breath as his vision rapidly shrank ….
Lock on!
Lock on!!
Lock on!!!
In the blink of an eye, reinforcements appeared in the distance. When the giant bat saw what was happening, it couldn't help but stop in place. Wang Baole roared and chose … to fire the cannon!!
There was an earth-shattering roar as a huge beam of light shot out from the Fire God Cannon. As it exploded, the Fire God Cannon shattered inch by inch. When the beam of light had completely burst out, the Fire God Cannon was crippled and reduced to scrap metal. All the inscriptions inside had been shattered!
Wang Baole was mentally drained, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood. He staggered backward and was caught by the soldiers behind him. His eyes were fixed on the sky, on the beam of light he had just fired.
The beam of light shot out like an enormous blue dragon, roaring as it shot up into the sky with lightning-like speed. In the blink of an eye, it pierced through the air and … appeared directly in front of the giant bat.
The giant bat let out a shrill cry and tried to dodge, but it was too late … In the blink of an eye, the beam of light whizzed past its body, and in an instant … its gigantic body began to disintegrate at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Its wings shattered inch by inch, and its mouth, which had been ghastly, exploded under the powerful beam of light. Blood splattered everywhere, and in the end, not even its hair remained. It was as if an invisible hand had wiped away all traces of its existence!
This scene shocked the entire battlefield. Chen Yutong and everyone on the platform were extremely excited. They felt as if they were dreaming. The soldiers on the battlefield and the cultivators from the four Dao Colleges were also shocked and overjoyed.
As for the beast tide, they were also agitated. A large number of ferocious beasts showed signs of fear. The tables had turned, and it was at this moment that the two Foundation Establishment ferocious beasts fighting with Big Beard were stunned. One of them screamed as its head was chopped off, and the remaining one fled frantically.
But it didn't manage to escape. The two Foundation Establishment cultivators who came to the rescue were filled with disbelief and shock. They immediately joined forces with Big Beard and the others to kill the last ferocious beast.
At this moment, the fear of the beast tide on the ground exploded. They began to retreat amidst roars. Even when they collided with each other, they fled frantically, causing chaos on the battlefield.
But this chaos didn't affect Big Beard's killing intent. He roared and immediately ordered the entire fortress to launch an all-out counterattack. The soldiers and cultivators around Wang Baole also rushed out and joined in the counterattack.
Even though Wang Baole was mentally drained, he leaped down and charged forward, commanding the mosquitoes to follow him.
It was in this way that the counterattack caused the beast tide to scatter even more violently. They trampled each other to death, and in the end … they watched as the beasts fled off into the distance. Exhausted, they had no choice but to end the chase.
Big Beard was panting as he turned to see Wang Baole covered in blood and exhaustion. Laughing heartily, he walked over and wrapped his arms around Wang Baole, slapping him hard on the back. Thankfully, Wang Baole's skin was thick and tough. If it weren't for that, he would have coughed up blood ….
However, despite his thick skin, Wang Baole still felt pain. Unwilling to be outdone, he hugged Big Beard and slapped him hard, causing popping sounds to ring out.
Big Beard realized that something wasn't right, and quickly let go. Clearing his throat, he turned and lifted Wang Baole's hand up into the air.
"Tell me, who is he?!"
"Wang Baole!" All the warriors who had just survived the ordeal shouted loudly.
After all, they had seen with their own eyes … the shocking scene of the cannon piercing through the void and killing the giant bat!
Hearing the countless people around him calling his name, Wang Baole's blood boiled and his face flushed red. This was the first time he had experienced such a feeling, and it was indescribable.
That was especially so for the thousands of warriors on the Fire God Cannon platform. They were extremely excited. They stepped forward and cheered, taking advantage of Wang Baole's shock to throw him high into the air. Again and again, cheers and laughter spread throughout the victorious battlefield.
The cultivators from the four Dao Colleges watched as Wang Baole was thrown into the air by the soldiers. Their eyes were also filled with excitement. The people who had come to rescue him were also unable to calm down. The cannon they had seen when they arrived … had shocked them greatly and deeply!
