If Yutang's eastern frontline's charge was said to be the prelude to this extreme war, then this lightning strike was also the prelude to heaven's might. After the first lightning strike, thick bolts of lightning fell from the sky and landed within Dongxuan's formation. How could the power of heaven and earth be resisted by humans? Men screamed and horses neighed; it was a tragic sight.
The power of heaven and earth was unstoppable. Dongxuan's misfortune continued as they endured the natural disaster. Not long after the countless bolts of lightning struck, a charred smell began to spread from the ground.
Perhaps it was a dozen breaths later, or perhaps it was only the very next moment, with a deafening explosion, streaks of fire dragons appeared out of thin air and rose abruptly, engulfing the entire Dongxuan camp in the blink of an eye. In just the blink of an eye, the dozens of miles of Dongxuan's camp had turned into a sea of fire.
The lightning and fire appeared at the same time, their power unstoppable!
What was worse was that it was reasonable to say that the ground fire had appeared out of nowhere due to the west wind, burning Dongxuan's base. It was understandable and barely acceptable, but why did the lightning strike from the sky seem to have eyes of its own? It only targeted Dongxuan's soldiers and not a single Yutang soldier perished under the boundless lightning? This was a little too far-fetched. Even a novel would not dare to write something like this!
Unfortunately, there was still more to come. With another deafening boom, a huge crack appeared on the ground closer to Dongxuan's formation. It was like the gates of hell had suddenly opened. Countless Dongxuan soldiers fell into the crack, caught off guard. Water that came out of nowhere poured in; it was obvious that many of the soldiers who had fallen into the crack were no longer spared.
What happened next was the few peaks where Dongxuan had set up camp. They collapsed without warning.
For a moment, the ground was like a pot of boiling water, constantly churning and tumbling.
Both men and horses could not stand and fell.
It was a true earth dragon turning over, and it was not just one earth dragon, but a few of them at the same time. How could the commotion be insignificant?
As far as the eye could see, the ground within a hundred-mile radius was rumbling and rumbling.
Blood-curdling screams and wails filled the air. Thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people were all screaming in despair.
It was the hopeless wail of people on the brink of death!
However, the change was not over yet. Streaks of crimson patterns weaved into a huge net in the air and fell with a swoosh. All the Dongxuan soldiers who were shrouded in crimson howled in agony without exception. Thin streaks of blood shot out from the pores on their bodies as they died instantly.
There were flashes of golden light. The weapons in the hands of countless Dongxuan soldiers were sheathed after the flash of golden light. When they landed on their opponents, they would at most injure their tendons and bones. It was difficult to inflict further damage. The difficulty of taking their opponent's life had increased exponentially.
All the sabers, swords, spears, and spears had turned into burning sticks made of scrap metal at this moment.
These were the signs of Dongxuan suffering from natural and earthly disasters while Yutang was also affected by the phenomenon. Streaks of green light could be seen everywhere in Yutang's army. Yutang's soldiers who were touched by the green light were instantly invigorated, even those who had been severely injured. Most of their injuries were healed and they were brimming with energy, as if they had been resurrected on the spot and were ready to fight again.
As far as the eye could see, the sky was covered in layers of clouds that contained lightning and thunder. On the ground, the wind was fueling the fire while the fire bore the might of the wind. It had long turned Dongxuan's orderly troops into a pot of porridge!
A pot of mushy porridge!
Zhan Ge hollered with all his might, trying his best to recall the army and stabilize their footing. However, the frequent natural and earthly disasters had long surpassed the limits of human control. How could they possibly regroup?
By then, Dongxuan's morale had completely collapsed!
The wind blew!
Fire!
Earth dragon!
Lightning!
Lightning!
Water!
Blood!
Wood!
Everything was so familiar.
There was only one possibility for such a familiar phenomenon to attack Dongxuan but help Yutang.
Perhaps, it was an explanation!
The Nine Supremes!
Indeed, the clouds in the sky tumbled violently before eight huge words appeared!
Everyone on the battlefield could see it clearly. It was clear to them — —
"The mighty Yutang, the mighty Nine Supremes!"
Han Sanhe closed his eyes dejectedly.
It was over!
The situation that he feared the most had finally happened!
Along the way, he had let Zhan Ge be in charge of the main battle. Other than training Zhan Ge so that he, as his successor, could claim all the military merits and obtain the ultimate achievement of defeating Yutang's top young prodigy, there was another concern. Once the Nine Supremes appeared, there would be room to turn things around with him as the backup.
However, when the Fortress of Resilience was breached, Supreme Cloud had not appeared!
When Qiu Jianhan was on the brink of death and Yutang's elites were trapped, Supreme Cloud had still not appeared!
Even when the army had been suppressing Yutang's army, Supreme Cloud had not appeared until now.
The outcome was almost certain!
Although Han Sanhe's teachings to Zhan Ge were filled with warning and he was even a little pessimistic about the outcome of the battle, Han Sanhe had already come to a conclusion in his heart. Zhan Ge against Fu Baoguo, no matter how brutal the battle was, no matter how many casualties Dongxuan had to pay, this battle would still be won!
Based on the current situation, it could be confirmed that Supreme Cloud had indeed been killed. At the very least, he was trapped.
Otherwise, it was impossible for him not to appear when Yutang was on the brink of annihilation.
He was not fated to participate in this battle!
Then, everything was simple. No matter how glorious the final outcome of this battle was, only death awaited him when he returned. In that case, it would be better to hand the great merit to Zhan Ge's hands and hasten his rise to fame, grooming the next generation of invincible marshals for Dongxuan.
Although the consequences for Han Sanhe were unavoidable, Dongxuan still had his successor, Zhan Ge, alive and well. His family, children, and descendants would not be too miserable no matter what.
The military would always back him up!
In spite of this, just as Han Sanhe let down his guard and quietly observed the aftermath of the battle, it was also the most unexpected moment …
The power of the Nine Supremes' manifestation powers had appeared once again!
Furthermore, this time, it wasn't like the last few times, where there were only two or three phenomena that appeared.
This time, it was like the Nine Supremes' manifestation powers had appeared at the same time to wreak havoc on the battlefield!
Almost immediately, all of Dongxuan's troops were dumbfounded.
How was this possible?
How was this possible?
Even if Supreme Cloud was not dead, even if he had come, he should not have been able to create such a terrifying outcome!
The manifestations appeared before their eyes, the lightning and fire, the mountains and rivers changing color, the wind and clouds surging, the web of blood, metal, and wind; everything was proof that this was not something that could be done by one person!
It was obvious that the Nine Supremes were not dead, not even one of them had died. Moreover, all of them had appeared together. This was how such a situation could be created!
Did the eight words in the sky prove this point, declaring that the Nine Supremes were not dead and had made a comeback at this moment?
How was this possible?
Dongxuan's soldiers were unwilling to believe that this was true, but everything that they had endured was proof that this was the truth!
The Nine Supremes had arrived at the same time and the manifestation of the nine manifestations – how could there be anyone in this world who could resist them?
They were already on the brink of collapse. Even if they were to continue fighting, they would only be sacrificing a few lives for nothing.
At this point, it was absolutely impossible to turn the tide of the battle.
Defeat was inevitable!
"Sound the gong, retreat!"
Han Sanhe closed his eyes helplessly and waved his hand.
At this moment, all hope was lost!
Only those who had personally experienced the power of the Nine Supremes and the nine manifestations could truly understand its power. Back then, the Empire of Dayuan at the southern border had also had the upper hand in terms of military strength, but it could not withstand the combined might of the manifestation powers; it had crumbled with a single touch!
Now, the facts had proven that Dongxuan was no exception to the rule!
The power of the Nine Supremes was indeed the ultimate weapon of war in this world; it was unparalleled!
Unlike Dongxuan's despair, Yutang's military formation was the complete opposite.
Yutang's warriors could not help but cheer deafeningly at this familiar scene that they had not seen for a long time, especially the sudden sense of bliss.
"Nine Supremes Lords!"
"Nine Supremes Lords!"
Deafening cheers rang throughout the battlefield almost instantly. All of Yutang's warriors were guffawing like they had been injected with adrenaline, charging forward with unstoppable momentum.
"Kill! The Nine Supremes Lords are here! "
"Yutang is saved!"
"We're saved!"
"This is the last battle, but it's Dongxuan's last battle!"
"Yes, yes, yes, victory belongs to us!"
"Kill these invaders!"
Many of the veterans were so moved that tears streamed down their cheeks.
Just when they had resigned themselves to their fate and were ready to fight to the death, the Nine Supremes Lords had finally appeared!
…
Fu Baoguo, who had just snapped back to reality and was charging forward, was almost frozen from the ecstasy on his face. Only hot tears were streaming down his cheeks. After some time, he suddenly guffawed, tears still rolling down his cheeks as he roared in a hoarse voice, "Mighty Yutang! Mighty Nine Supremes! "
"Mighty Yutang, Mighty Nine Supremes!"
Countless people were shouting the slogan with all their might, almost coughing blood from their throats.
It was as if they could not vent the extreme happiness and excitement in their hearts if they did not shout like that.
Yutang's morale was unstoppable, like a ferocious tiger descending the mountain. Dongxuan's military was dispirited, their morale plunging to freezing point. There was no longer any will to fight. Even the Shadow Cavalry, who was known for their military discipline and was known as the most elite, was in a state of disarray, unable to retaliate.
Facing the Nine Supremes at the same time, who would dare say they could resist?
That was the true power of heaven and earth!
It was not something that a human could fight against!
