The demonic beasts could tell that Song Zhong was going all out. As a Godly Beast, they had their own pride. Hence, even though they suffered a lot of losses in the first wave of attacks, they weren't afraid at all. Instead, they became even more ferocious. They actually led the army of demonic beasts to pounce towards Song Zhong's fleet.
They were extremely fast and weren't any slower than the vulture when it sped up. Hence, Song Zhong's Dragon Pattern Cannon wasn't able to stop them from getting closer. It only killed a lot of demonic beasts.
Soon, both parties clashed intensely and engaged in an even more intense hand-to-hand battle.
Facing the Divine Beast Group led by Bi Fang, Song Zhong and Emperor Gouchen didn't dare to be careless. Emperor Gouchen ordered his subordinates to participate in the battle.
Song Zhong's flower demons were enough to deal with low-level demons like the vulture spirit. However, they had to rely on experts to deal with the Godly Beasts.
Luckily, Emperor Gouchen brought a lot of people with him this time. They usually hid in the flying boats to cultivate. It was only at this crucial moment that they could unleash their full potential.
With Emperor Gouchen's command, a hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals appeared on every flying boat. They were all elites under the North Star Emperor's command and were led by powerful generals.
There were more than four million troops in total. This was the largest number that Emperor Gouchen could bring out without affecting the construction of the city's defenses.
The orthodox Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals were different from Song Zhong's ragtag army. Even though their equipment was weaker than Song Zhong's flower demons, they moved in an orderly manner and were very disciplined. Furthermore, they were especially adept at forming a battle formation to increase their attack power by a few folds.
Their battle formation only needed a few hundred people to defend against the Godly Beasts' attack. In addition to the large number of generals who weren't any weaker than the Godly Beasts, they were able to defend against the army of demonic beasts.
However, this didn't change the predicament that Song Zhong and the rest were in. This was because the Demon Race didn't expect these troops to be able to destroy the airship fleet. Their biggest goal was to stall for time. When the Demon Race from the other two directions arrived and formed an encirclement, Song Zhong's fleet would definitely be finished.
And now, even though the flying beasts were at a disadvantage, their intensive attacks still greatly delayed the flying speed of the fleet. According to this situation, Song Zhong's fleet would be surrounded sooner or later.
Seeing that the situation wasn't good, SongZhong could no longer be bothered to hide his trump cards. He hurriedly activated the golden crows on the Divine Sun Boat and tens of thousands of golden crows flew out from the flying boat, attacking the flying beasts outside.
The moment these fellows appeared, they immediately intimidated everyone present. The bird-type Demon Clan was most afraid of fire. In addition, the Sun Golden Crow's notoriety was too terrifying. Therefore, when they saw these fellows burning with golden flames, they were all shocked.
As the commander, the Bi Fang Clan had no choice but to take the lead and charge forward, intending to stop these powerful beings. As long as they could stall for a while and wait for reinforcements to arrive, everything would be fine.
However, they never expected that these Gold Crows wouldn't fight with them at all. They would desperately insert themselves into the dense area of the other party. When the distance was about right, the Gold Crows cried out happily and then self-destructed on the spot.
The Gold Immortal Gold Crows were covered in pure Sun True Fire. When they exploded, the area within a radius of hundreds of miles was filled with golden flames. The Divine Beasts that were fighting with them didn't expect that these fellows would self-destruct as soon as they started fighting. Therefore, they all suffered a great loss!
Those who were slightly weaker were directly burned to ashes. Those who were stronger were also burned all over and suffered serious injuries.
If it was just one Gold Crow self-destructing, it would be fine. The Demon Birds wouldn't care too much about the loss. But the problem was that three to four thousand Gold Crows self-destructed at once. The flames they superimposed filled the space around the fleet.
With just this one attack, millions of Demonic Birds were reduced to ashes. The entire sky was cleared.
Some of the Demon Birds that were proficient in fire-type spells or had special treasures managed to survive this disaster. However, they had to face the siege of thousands of Gold Crows. The situation was not optimistic.
And Song Zhong didn't care so much. Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, he quickly commanded the fleet to break out.
Song Zhong killed nearly half of the Demon Birds. Although he didn't completely kill them, he directly hit the other party's morale to the bottom.
Although the Demon Birds were unusually fierce, they weren't fools who weren't afraid of death. After seeing the power of these Gold Crows, the remaining Demon Birds only dared to cry out wildly in a safe area hundreds of miles away. No one dared to really charge forward.
Because there were thousands of Gold Crows protecting them. If only a few of them charged forward, they wouldn't be able to defeat them. If all of them charged forward, they would all be finished once they self-destructed.
Divine Beasts were not ordinary demons. Their growth cycle was especially long, but their fertility was very weak. Usually, they cherished their lives very much. Therefore, these Divine Beasts led by Divine Beasts like Bi Fang were not willing to go to their deaths. They could only watch from the side.
Of course, Song Zhong wouldn't be polite to them. Under the protection of thousands of Gold Crows, he swaggered out of the encirclement and headed straight into the distance.
Seeing how easily Song Zhong broke through the obstruction of the Divine Beasts and Demonic Beasts, whether it was the North Star Great Emperor or his valiant subordinates, they were all overjoyed and praised Song Zhong.
The North Star Emperor laughed exaggeratedly and said, "Haha, if I knew that you were so powerful, I wouldn't have brought so many people here. Isn't it a waste?"
"That's right. Since your Sun Flying Ship has such a killing move, why should we be afraid of the demon army? You just need to self-destruct a few times and you will be able to kill them all! "Another guy laughed and said," Why don't we kill our way back? "
When Song Zhong heard this, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He quickly explained, "I can't do that. I have already used up all my trump cards and barely managed to kill my way out. Do you really think that those super powerful cannonballs and Gold Crows can be used without limit? How can it be so cheap? "
"En?" When the North Star Emperor heard this, he immediately asked nervously, "Then how many super powerful cannonballs do you have left? What are the limits of the Gold Crows? "
"Super powerful cannonballs require special divine lightning to refine. Those things are pitifully rare. I have gathered them for a few hundred years and only managed to gather tens of millions of cannonballs. This number doesn't seem small, but my fleet has millions of Dragon Patterned Cannons. This consumption is very terrifying. The tens of millions of cannonballs have already been used up in the first few volleys. In the future, we can only use ordinary divine lightning cannonballs. The power is not even one-tenth of the super powerful cannonballs! "
"Ah ~" When they heard Song Zhong's words, everyone revealed a disappointed expression.
Song Zhong didn't care about that and continued, "As for the Gold Crows, although their souls can return to the ship after self-destructing and recover in the core of the Sun Divine Ship, it will take a lot of time. However, this required quite a bit of time. The weaker ones would need about three days, while the stronger ones would need more than ten days. Furthermore, they will need to consume a large amount of Sun Truefire divine lightning to revive them. I don't have too much of that. Don't even think about making them self-destruct dozens of times! "
"Sigh ~" When they heard Song Zhong's words, everyone couldn't help but sigh in disappointment.
The North Star Emperor smiled bitterly and helplessly, "If that's the case, your fleet's combat power has decreased by about half?"
"More or less!" Song Zhong said indifferently, "Actually, the decrease in combat power is secondary. The key is that the consumption of divine lightning is too great. Whether it's cannonballs or replenishing divine qi, they all need divine lightning and the amount is terrifying. In the continuous battles, we have already used about one-tenth of our stock. "
"One-tenth? That's not much? There's still nine-tenths! "The North Star Emperor immediately said.
"It looks like a lot, but it's actually not much. I seriously underestimated the consumption of the battle, so the stock is somewhat insufficient. The remaining divine lightning can only last for less than two hours. "Song Zhong said helplessly.
"What? Less than two hours? "The North Star Emperor was shocked when he heard that." How is that enough? "
"Yeah, the war is about to start. Once the war starts, it's possible to fight for a few days and nights. Why do you only have so little divine lightning?" Yellow-robed Guai couldn't help but reprimand.
"Sigh ~" Song Zhong smiled bitterly and helplessly, "I just found out that the war is about to start. I used to live leisurely in the East Imperial Realm. There wasn't anything big, so the divine lightning was used to make flying ships. The cannonballs were only enough to support a small scale battle! I was very safe there anyway. But who knew that I was transferred here by the Heavenly Emperor, and then I suddenly encountered such a war! At that time, even if I wanted to collect more divine lightning, it was already too late. "
The North Star Emperor naturally knew that it wasn't Song Zhong's fault. Such a large divine lightning reserve wasn't something that could be accumulated in a short period of time. It would take at least a dozen years before it could be used. But Song Zhong couldn't have known that he was going to participate in the war today. So, it was normal that he didn't prepare well.
Therefore, the North Star Emperor smiled bitterly and said, "Alright, it's not Song Zhong's fault. It's because we didn't communicate well beforehand. Now isn't the time to talk about this. Everyone, since Song Zhong's flying ship fleet can't fight for a long period of time, it's not good for us to fight the demon race head-on! What do you think we should do next? "
"Why don't we go back?" Yellow-robed Guai said, "After we go back, we will join the army and have a fair fight with them!"
"No, no!" The North Star Emperor shook his head and said, "The situation now is actually beneficial to us. We have attracted all their attention. As long as we stall for two months, we can complete the defense of the city. By then, we will be in an invincible position. If we give up now, it'll be a pity!
