"Get into formation!"
Yang Ye shouted. Boom!
Boom! Boom!
The formation of the entire army began to change rapidly.
The sword-shield soldiers were at the front, and the formation was at the front. The spear-wielding soldiers were at the back, followed by the Divine Arms Battalion, and the archers were at the back.
The neat formation and austere military formation instantly lined up neatly. It was the simplest and most direct battle formation. The 30,000 soldiers exuded an austere aura. The iron-blooded murderous aura that they cultivated seemed to be completely connected at this moment. The aura they exuded was connected, and they were like a huge monster. A mountain-like pressure swept over.
The army was in formation in a dignified manner!
"Get into formation!"
When the demon scorpion saw this, his eyes narrowed. He also felt a strong sense of threat from this military formation. However, he was not afraid. He gave the same order.
Whoosh!
The scorpion soldiers stepped forward one after another and also got into formation in the underground space. Most of the scorpion men were holding huge sabers that looked like modao sabers. The pitch-black blades flickered with a cold light. Although their formation was not very neat and was not as well-trained as the Xuanhuang Town's army, after getting into formation, the huge blades still made people feel a strong sense of threat.
The cruelty and bloodlust in their bones made these scorpion men not afraid of killing at all. The shiny blades made the entire army exude a sharp murderous aura.
For a time, the underground space completely turned into a battlefield.
On one side was the human race, and on the other side was the scorpion men.
Facing each other head-on, the two invisible auras directly collided in the air above the battlefield.
A wave of austere aura spread in the air.
In front of a real army, one would not understand how terrifying that kind of pressure was if they did not personally feel it.
"They've started fighting. It's really the scorpion men's army. This is the sign of two armies facing each other and about to start a war. "
"Great. We haven't seen what a real army is like before. This is the time to compete with real strength. However, judging from the formation, it's obvious that our Xuanhuang Town's army is more orderly. The aura they are exuding is more powerful. This is not a matter of one plus one equals two. It's like a whole. Once it moves, it will be like a hot knife through butter, causing the heavens to fall and the earth to rend. "
"What a terrifying army of scorpionmen. I didn't feel it when I was facing them alone, but now that they're in formation, their huge blades are like weapons on the battlefield. Even a warhorse would be cut in half with a single slash."
At this time, many cultivators had already begun to arrive, but they only dared to stand at the edge of the battlefield, not daring to approach.
The auras emanating from the two armies were simply too terrifying. It was as if two terrifying beasts had been awakened and were preparing to fight to the death.
Yi Tianxing did not interfere in the battle between the two armies. He simply stood to the side and allowed Yang Ye to freely control the army. He was a general and was in charge of the army. This was his responsibility and authority.
"Kill!!"
When the demon scorpion saw that the formation was complete, he no longer hesitated. With a wave of his hand, he issued an order, and the prelude to the battle began.
Boom! Boom!
Hearing this order, the Scorpion people army immediately started to move. They were half-man, half-scorpion people, and they moved incredibly quickly. Huge sabers were held in their hands, and a fierce baleful aura swept over. It crushed down like a black cloud.
The aura was suffocating.
Yang Yanding, who was among the sword-shield soldiers, shouted, "Sword-shield soldiers, raise your shields!"
Boom!
They took half a step forward, squatted down, and knelt on one knee. The huge shields directly fell to the ground in front of them and raised. Each shield was connected to the shield next to it, forming an indestructible shield wall. They directly blocked the front.
Then, the spearmen stepped forward and appeared behind the shield wall. The shield was specially made. Even though it was a composite shield wall, there were still small holes on the shield wall. These holes could only allow spears to pass through, but they had to be extremely precise. Once the spear wasn't precise enough, it wouldn't be able to pierce through the holes and cause any damage to the enemy in front of it. This was something that had to be learned during the training in Xuanhuang Town.
"Divine Arms Battalion, listen to my order. Fire at will in front!!"
Yang Yanping's eyes narrowed as he looked at the approaching Scorpion people army. His expression was still calm as he decisively ordered.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
That scene was enough to make one's scalp go numb. Their hearts were shrouded in fear. That scene was too violent.
Each of them contained a powerful rune power, and they were filled with True Qi. When they were shot out, they flickered with a rich golden light. Almost all of the crossbow arrows were armor-piercing arrows. They contained the power of metal. Together with the explosive power of the Divine Arms Crossbows, the destructive power of the arrows soared to the extreme.
Ding! Ding!
Ding! The scorpion people were all wearing pitch-black battle armor, which was evolved from scorpion shells. The natural battle armor had strong defensive power, even stronger than normal battle armor. When vital energy was poured into it, a black metallic luster could be seen on it. The battle sabers in their hands kept slashing, and pitch-black saber lights flashed in front of them. When they collided with the arrows, intense rumbling sounds could be heard.
The power contained in the arrows was extremely shocking. Some of the scorpion people even had their battle sabers knocked back, but some were directly cut in half by the battle sabers, making crisp sounds. Unfortunately, no matter how exquisite the saber skills were, it was impossible to completely block the dense rain of arrows. Some arrows fell on the body and landed on the armor. When the arrows collided with the armor, the Shenguang on the armor flickered, making it extremely difficult for the arrows to break through the defense of the armor.
However, the armor-piercing arrows lived up to their reputation. The armor-piercing power on the arrows still forcibly broke through the Shenguang, penetrated the armor, and pierced into the body. However, when the arrows pierced through the armor, more than half of the power on the arrows had been used up, so they could not completely penetrate the body. However, the arrows still penetrated deep into the body, breaking through the flesh and blood. Streaks of bloody light were as beautiful as night blossoms.
One arrow might not be fatal, but if three, four, or ten arrows fell on the body, or even directly hit the vital points and pierced the throat, it would only bring death. The arrows also contained the sharp armor-piercing power. Once they entered the body, they would wantonly destroy the body.
Almost immediately, a large number of scorpion people at the front fell under the rain of arrows, dying on the spot.
This scene was like wheat under a sickle. What was harvested was one life after another.
However, the scorpion people were not afraid and did not advance.
Instead, they unceremoniously picked up the corpses of the scorpion people on the ground and used them as flesh shields, blocking in front of them without hesitation. They quickly rushed forward. When the arrows hit the corpses, they were directly blocked by the corpses, and did not pose a threat to the scorpion people behind the corpses.
Moreover, the scorpion people army was too fast, and the distance between the two armies was not long. There was no time for them to react and change to other rune arrows.
However, Yang Ye was not surprised at all. After facing the foreign races' method of dealing with archers once, he was naturally prepared. He would not fall for it a second time and had long prepared a way to break it.
"Archers, get ready. Blazing arrows, straight ahead. Fire at will."
Wang Dahu also immediately gave the order.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Instantly, the white bone bows in the hands of the archers were drawn. The moment the bows were drawn, one could see that the rune arrows were all blazing arrows. On the bowstrings, crimson light flickered.
Streaks of crimson light appeared in the sky above the battlefield and shot into the corpses.
The blazing arrows exploded and turned into balls of fire, quickly igniting the corpses into balls of fire. The scorpion people holding the corpses had no choice but to give up the meat shields in their hands. Their bodies were once again exposed to the dense rain of arrows.
Another large number of scorpion people died under the rain of arrows.
When ten thousand divine mechanical crossbows attacked at the same time, the number of arrows shot out was too shocking.
It was as dense as rain.
Thousands of scorpion people fell under the rain of arrows. The destructive power of the arrows was so domineering and shocking.
"Kill!"
However, after paying a heavy price, the scorpion people army had already forced their way to the front of the army. Amidst the cold murderous roars, huge black sabers were raised at the same time and slashed at the shield wall in front of them. One could see the intense sharpness on the sabers, which were all filled with powerful true qi. They were all attacking with all their strength. Every slash, together with the huge sabers, exploded with destructive power that seemed to be able to split a small mountain.
Ding!
Bang!
When the sabers hit the shield, one could see that the shield glowed with golden light again, turning into a golden shield wall that transmitted a powerful defensive power. The sound of metal clashing rang out. Sparks flew under the sabers. The shield wall was as immovable as a mountain.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Then, one after another, ferocious bone spears drilled out of the shield wall like poisonous snakes. These spears appeared very suddenly. One could not imagine that behind the shield wall, the spears would directly pierce out fatal spears. They landed squarely on the scorpion people at the front. The crisp sound of sharp blades piercing through flesh rang out one after another. Blood splattered everywhere.
A large number of scorpion people fell on the battlefield again.
However, the scorpion people at the back did not hesitate. They quickly moved forward, swung their sabers, and slashed at the shield wall again. The light of the shield wall dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Moreover, after being prepared, the damage caused by the spears from the shield wall was directly reduced. Most of them were dodged, and only a small portion could not be avoided and were pierced by the spears. Ding!
Ding! Ding!
The huge sabers slashed at the shield wall again and again.
The golden shield wall started to dissipate at a speed visible to the naked eye.
During this process, the divine mechanical crossbows kept shooting out arrows, killing scorpion people one after another. There was only cold killing on the battlefield. In front of the shield wall, it was like a natural moat. A large number of corpses dyed the ground red. A large number of scorpion people fell.
Bang!
