The battle erupted in an instant. Blood rained down from the skies as the sounds of battle drums thundered. Boundless amounts of lightning descended from the skies, following the directions of those drummers, killing their way towards the Yuanfu cultivators below.
In the distance, the cultivators beside Chu Tianjiao once again raised their golden arrows. An indomitable sharpness erupted forth as a golden beam of light arced through the air, shooting towards Chu Wuwei.
The Thunder Dragon Drum vibrated simultaneously as the Thunder Dragon roared in rage, rushing towards the incoming arrows. Evidently, the Thunder Dragon Drum was a level higher than the Thunder Dragon Drum.
"BOOM!" Chu Mang's silhouette flickered as he stood atop the city walls. Astral Light illuminated his eyes as he released his Astral Souls. First, a bow and arrow appeared, followed by a gigantic axe. These were his second and third Astral Souls.
A gigantic Astral Bow appeared in Chu Mang's hands. Nocking the arrows, the nine arrows shot towards the incoming group of silhouettes. Instantly, the movements of the nine silhouettes stiffened, as though they had been locked onto. Their gazes were filled with trepidation as they stared at Chu Mang.
Chu Mang was the first of the ten prodigies. His talent was many times more outstanding than Chu Tianjiao's, and his combat prowess was incomparable.
"Whoever dares to step forward, die!" Chu Mang roared as the arrows pierced through the air.
"Chi, chi, chi …" Nine sounds rang out simultaneously. The nine Yuanfu cultivators trembled as their foreheads were penetrated by the arrows. Expressions of disbelief could be seen in their eyes.
How could his arrows be so fast?
"This is … the power of a Mandate." Qin Wentian stared at Chu Mang. Chu Mang's aura should be at the fifth level of Yuanfu. Not only that, there was a faint trace of the power of a Mandate within his arrows.
Qin Wentian's senses weren't wrong. Under Chu Wuwei's tutelage, Chu Mang had been madly shooting arrows day after day, year after year, even after he stepped into Yuanfu. Chu Wuwei wanted him to shoot arrows, to allow him to feel it. Until one day, he suddenly had a feeling that he could make his arrows hit their targets in the shortest amount of time possible.
At that time, he had already comprehended the first level of insight of the Mandate of Arrows – Instant Strike.
A single arrow piercing through nine Yuanfu cultivators. The impact of such a scene was too great. Although the strength of the nine Yuanfu cultivators wasn't considered too strong, Yuanfu Realm cultivators were still the backbone of this war.
Chu Mang's movements didn't slow down in the slightest. His body abruptly turned as he aimed his arrows at the experts rushing up the platform.
"Roar." With a howl of rage, Chu Mang became incomparably berserk, akin to a giant as he shot out another nine arrows. Nine beams of light flashed as the sounds of piercing rang out unceasingly. More and more Yuanfu cultivators fell, killed in a single strike.
Chu Mang's bow was like an arrow that could reap away lives.
The Thunder Dragon Drum defended while Chu Mang attacked. Although there weren't too many experts here, it wouldn't be so easy for Chu Tianjiao's men to break into the rooftop.
With thirty-six Yuanfu cultivators working together to control the Thunder Dragon Drum, even if a cultivator at the upper third level of Yuanfu were to get close to them, they would still feel immense danger.
"The people from the Qin Clan should be arriving soon," Chu Wuwei spoke in a low voice. Qin Wentian sighed in his heart as he stared at the pool of blood on the ground.
Ouyang's men didn't appear because Qin Wentian knew that the Nine Mystical Palace had yet to appear. Ouyang and his men needed to intimidate the Nine Mystical Palace.
As for Qing'er, Qin Wentian could only smile bitterly when he thought of her. He couldn't even see Qing'er. Maybe he could purposely expose himself to danger to lure Qing'er out, but if he did this every single time, Qing'er would definitely be unhappy. After all, Qing'er didn't owe him anything. She was protecting him in the dark, and he should be grateful to her. He couldn't use his life to threaten Qing'er every single time.
Even the white clouds in the sky were dyed a crimson red. The experts on the rooftop were still guarding the various locations, and Chu Mang unceasingly shot out arrows to kill those in his range of attack. However, the other experts had no way to defend against the invasion of the cavalry. Those who supported Chu Wuwei were being hunted down, and even those from the Jiang Clan and the Mu Clan were in danger.
However, they were also gradually moving closer to the rooftop where Chu Wuwei was located. This way, the thunder dragon drum attacks would be able to protect them.
Chu Wuwei also didn't order his strongest experts to launch an all-out attack. Although he had the confidence to destroy the thunder dragon drum's attack, if he were to do so, it would undoubtedly cause him to expend a large number of experts. He wanted to see how long Chu Wuwei would be able to evade his attacks.
The sounds of shouting gradually died down, yet the earth started to tremble. Chu Tianjiao's gaze shifted over, only to see a group of experts whistling through the air. On the ground, there were also armored mounts galloping through the air, as they advanced with the speed of a tornado. Shockingly, the Qin Clan had arrived.
Chu Tianjiao coldly glanced at Chu Wuwei before waving his hands. Momentarily, his men retreated in a frenzy towards the left of the Giant Pillar Plaza, in order to avoid being caught in a pincer attack by Chu Wuwei and the Qin Clan.
A terrifying hurricane whistled through the air. The Qin Clan stood on the right of the Giant Pillar Plaza, facing Chu Tianjiao's troops as a tyrannical might engulfed the heavens and earth.
"Wentian." A voice called out. Qin Wentian turned his gaze onto the two generals of the Qin Clan. Qin Wu and Qin Chuan were there, but their personal strength wasn't that strong. Hence, they were heavily guarded, and other than the guards, there were also experts from the Emperor Star Academy as well as Old Gu.
The Nine Mystical Palace had imprisoned Diyi and brought him away. The Royal Clan had sent people to hunt down the members of the Emperor Star Academy. How could they not seek revenge? There were already many experts from the Emperor Star Academy within the Qin Clan's troops.
This was also the reason why Chu Wuwei had so much confidence in Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian was the key character that could decide the outcome of this battle.
"Grandpa Qin, Father." Qin Wentian smiled. This day had finally arrived. Ever since the Ye Clan brought their troops into the Sky Harmony City, it had been less than two years. It was time for everything to come to an end.
"It's good that you're here. Let us bury all of you here today." Chu Tianjiao coldly swept his gaze over the crowd. From afar, a powerful army was madly sprinting over, as though they were being pursued. Upon seeing this scene, Chu Tianjiao's gaze froze. When the army neared him, Chu Tianjiao coldly asked, "What's going on?"
The army in front of him was in a sorry state, like a field of loose sand. Was this still the army that had been trained for so many years?
"We were ambushed. Icehawk, Icehawk is a traitor, a spy. As the vice-commander, he led us into a trap." The general in the lead coldly spoke, his killing intent surging. From afar, another army could be seen approaching. This army was clad in full armor, exuding an aura of killing intent.
They slowly approached, surrounding Chu Tianjiao and the others. The person in the lead, Qin Wentian's gaze froze the instant he saw him.
Back then, he and Fan Le had almost been killed when they were trapped in the Treacherous Castle in the Dark Forest. Someone had recognized him, and this army was none other than that person.
The person in the lead slowly took off his helmet, revealing a familiar face.
"Icehawk, it's him." Qin Wentian recalled the scene of Icehawk leading his troops into the Sky Harmony City. Who would have thought that the person who dealt with the Qin Clan back then was actually a spy?
According to his father, Icehawk was the vice-commander of Grandpa Qin. After that, he betrayed the Qin Clan and gained the trust of the Royal Clan and the Ye Clan. After that, he led his troops and slaughtered many of the members of the Qin Clan. But now, at the most crucial moment, he had dealt a fatal blow to the Royal Clan.
"Ginger is spicier with age," Chu Wuwei murmured, as he cast a deep glance at Qin Wentian.
In that case, Chu Tianjiao's troops had completely lost their advantage. If he wanted to reverse the situation, he could only rely on his most elite troops to salvage the situation.
This also indicated that the final battle was about to begin.
Chu Tianjiao suddenly laughed. He stared at Chu Wuwei as he icily stated, "Big brother, you forced me to do this. Since things have already reached this point, the only way is to exterminate all of you. Only then will I be able to suppress the situation today."
As the sound of his voice faded, a sinister gust of wind swept across the Heavens and Earth.
Behind Chu Tianjiao, four silhouettes abruptly stepped out. Cracking sounds rang out as the robes of four old men were torn apart, revealing their blood-colored robes. Their entire bodies exuded a terrifying blood-colored aura, and the cold eyes of eagles were incomparably sharp. A towering pressure of blood gushed forth from them as a towering pressure of blood gushed forth.
"The young maidens of the Royal Capital died in their hands, right? They should have died long ago, yet you kept them alive, using the blood of young maidens to nourish them. Not only that, you even brought them out today. Third Brother, you truly deserve death." Chu Wuwei stared at the four old men who had just appeared. He could faintly recognize these four. They should have died long ago, yet they were still alive.
"I don't have this kind of ability. This was left behind by our Ancestor for our Royal Clan. If it wasn't for you, how could I have reached this step?" Chu Tianjiao indifferently stated. "Winner takes all. Today, Chu Wuwei, Qin Wentian, all of you shall die here."
As the sound of his voice faded, the four old men howled in rage as they rushed towards Icehawk and the others. Terrifying sounds of blood gushing forth from their bodies as the number of casualties instantly increased. Such a brutal scene caused the hearts of the spectators to tremble as their countenances turned pale.
"What a cruel method, all of them were created by the Mandate of Blood. Damn it all." Old Gu and Ren Qianxing's countenances were extremely unsightly to behold. The strength of these four old men was terrifying.
At the same time, from afar, another group of people soared through the air. Upon seeing the person in the lead, those from the Emperor Star Academy involuntarily froze.
Nine Mystical Palace, Luo Qianqiu.
"Qin Wentian." Luo Qianqiu's gaze landed on Qin Wentian. Faint arcs of lightning crackled around his body as his killing intent intensified.
The humiliation of the Jun Lin Banquet, would finally be washed away today.
"I know there's a capable person behind you. Hence, my Nine Mystical Palace also sent a Heavenly Dipper Sovereign. Today, no one will be able to save you." Luo Qianqiu calmly stated, his words causing the hearts of the spectators to sink.
Not only did the Nine Mystical Palace participate, they even brought a Heavenly Dipper Sovereign with them.
If Luo Qianqiu wanted to kill Qin Wentian, no one would be able to stop him. And by doing so, he would undoubtedly be helping Chu Tianjiao.
Chu Tianjiao also stared at Qin Wentian. This person who had almost controlled the outcome of the battle, a cold smile could be seen flickering in his eyes as he icily stated, "Today, no one will be able to escape. Qin Wentian, today shall be the day of your death."
