Chu Li replied, "Give them hope."
"How?" Song Chengzhi frowned.
He also felt that Chu Li's idea made sense. If Asuras were given hope, they would not self-destruct out of anger.
The power of an Asura's self-destruction was too shocking. The disciples of the White Dew Clan would not be able to withstand it.
Chu Li said, "Clan Leader, slow down and don't push them too hard. I'll lure some Asuras over to give them hope so that they won't be in a hurry to self-destruct when reinforcements arrive. There's another way. I'll go somewhere else and trigger the rescue arrow. Clan Leader, bring some people over and leave some people behind. This way, it'll be enough to give them hope."
"Hmm … Makes sense." Song Chengzhi nodded slowly and smiled. "Let's use the second method then."
Chu Li nodded.
Song Chengzhi asked, "Do you have the rescue arrow?"
Chu Li smiled and nodded.
The White Dew Hall token and the distress signal arrow had to be carried, but because most of the time, they wouldn't be separated and would move together, there was no need to emphasize this.
If it did not work, the White Dew Clan Token could also be used to call for help.
"Alright then, go now lest the Asuras get impatient." Song Chengzhi quickly said.
He was a little worried that the Asuras would see no hope and immediately self-destruct. These Asuras did not care about their lives at all. As long as the Heart of Asura was not destroyed, they could still be resurrected. Although their cultivation level would be greatly damaged and they would need to cultivate again, their cultivation speed was far faster than a Celestial.
Chu Li said, "There's no rush. We have to wait a little longer in case they see through us."
Song Chengzhi glared at him.
He was burning with anxiety. Seeing how confident Chu Li was, he wanted to slap him away and tell him to leave immediately.
Chu Li said, "The Asuras have not invaded our Outland. They are still in the outer region. Why are they so afraid of them? When I was in the lower realm, I heard that the Outland can't withstand the Asuras anymore. Now that I've heard it, I know I was wrong."
"They can't withstand it anymore." Song Chengzhi spoke quickly, "Think about it. The Asura have already fought their way to the outskirts of Hidden Dragon City, breaking through the final barrier. If they go any further, they will be attacking Hidden Dragon City. If Hidden Dragon City falls, it will be a disaster for the Realm Beyond Avalon!"
"But it's not to the extent that the Outland will be destroyed, right?" Chu Li asked.
Song Chengzhi snorted, "If they manage to break into Crouching Dragon City, the Realm Beyond Heaven will never have a day of peace. Destruction is just around the corner."
Chu Li frowned. "It's not that serious."
"It's that serious." Song Chengzhi said, "It looks like there's only one city, but once they break through Crouching Dragon City, they'll be able to charge out of the Extraterritorial Battlefield. Then, they'll be able to charge to any location. Adding on their Void Teleportation, it'll be impossible to defend against them. They can appear in any city and start a massacre, causing panic among the people. The Sky Beyond Heaven will fall into chaos, and with the Heavenly Demons taking advantage of this, the Sky Beyond Heaven's destruction will be upon us!"
Chu Li said, "The extraterrestrial battlefield …"
"The good thing about the Extraterritorial Battlefield is that you can't use Void Shift. You can only use Qinggong, so it's not that difficult to deal with. If they can't attack Wolong City, they can't use Qinggong to move into Sky Beyond Sky," Song Chengzhi said.
Chu Li frowned. "Can Great Asuras enter?"
"Unless they use a secret skill, but Great Asuras aren't that scary and can be sensed," Song Chengzhi said. "As long as it's not a large-scale invasion by Great Asuras, it won't be a disaster."
Chu Li said, "There are people in the Sky Beyond Heaven who can predict the future, right? Even if Asuras come in, they should be able to predict it, right? "
"It's useless. The Sky Beyond Heaven isn't the Lower Realm. It's too vast and there are too many Asuras … In any case, we can't let them break through Crouching Dragon City no matter what." Song Chengzhi shook his head. "Alright, it's time to send a distress signal."
Chu Li saw that he was impatient, so he did not ask any more questions. He glided ten miles away and took out a small wooden tube from his inner pocket. He channeled and shook it.
"Bang!" With a muffled sound, a dark light appeared in the sky.
The dark light condensed into a large longsword, its tip pointed in his direction.
Song Chengzhi had already glided back to the formation used to deal with the Asuras. When he raised his head and saw the signal, he shouted, "Send half of your men to follow me!"
Mo Heng hurriedly said, "Clan Leader, isn't taking half of your men too much? Why don't we get rid of these guys first? "
"If they weren't in danger, they wouldn't have sent a distress signal!" Song Chengzhi shook his head and shouted, "It's useless if we don't bring enough. Elder Mo, Elder Fu, I'll leave this place to you. You must eliminate them!"
"Alright," the two of them replied.
They were a little reluctant as they watched Song Chengzhi leave with eight hundred men, leaving only eight hundred men to fight the Asuras.
The Asuras, who were initially in a precarious situation, heaved a sigh of relief.
The Asuras who were about to self-destruct stopped themselves. If they used their secret skills, it would not be difficult to eliminate these people. They just needed to escape before Song Chengzhi and the others returned.
When they thought of this, they activated their secret skills one after another. Instantly, the red light around their bodies shone brightly.
In the distance, a signal for help sounded once more.
Mo Heng frowned and shouted, "Elder Fu, what should we do?"
"Ignore them for now. Let's deal with these guys first," Fu Tianlei said.
"Clan Leader, it might be very dangerous over there," Mo Heng shouted.
Fu Tianlei said, "If we don't suppress this side, we'll go and save the other side later. These guys will definitely take advantage of the situation, so we can only eliminate them as soon as possible. Everyone, put in more effort, don't hide anymore!"
"Yes, yes, let's go all out," Mo Heng hurriedly shouted.
Both he and Fu Tianlei saw Song Chengzhi's hand gesture and knew that the rescue was fake. Although they knew that it was all fake, they did not really understand the reason, so they still gave orders based on a situation they did not know.
Hearing this, the people of White Dew Hall began to activate their secret skills.
Instantly, the white light became brighter and brighter. The pressure on the Asuras suddenly increased, and more than twenty Asuras died in an instant.
However, this situation did not make them self-destruct. Instead, they were full of confidence. They felt that since the other side was trying so hard to send out the distress signal, they could no longer hold on and that their companions must be coming.
Once they met up with their companions, they could completely eliminate this group of Celestials, which would be a huge blow to the Sky Beyond Heaven. Then, they could rush to Wolong City. As long as they took down Wolong City, the gates to the Sky Beyond Heaven would open, and they could run as they pleased.
The people of White Dew Hall swung their swords with all their might. The formation grew stronger and stronger, and in just a short while, another twenty Asuras died.
Before they knew it, more than a hundred Asuras had died, but this was not done in one go. Instead, they were being whittled down bit by bit. The Asuras could feel the pressure slowly increasing, and they thought that it was because the people of White Dew Hall were using their secret skills.
They gritted their teeth and held on, holding on with hope. Because the secret skill could only last for a limited time, as long as they could hold on, these White Dew Hall disciples would not be able to fight back. If not for the White Dew Hall coming to rescue the previous batch of Summer Rain Hall disciples, they would have all died by now.
"Bang!" Another distress signal came from afar.
Mo Heng shouted, "This won't do. Send a team over to take a look!"
"Alright, Old Du, lead the team!" Fu Tianlei shouted.
An old man answered and retreated with his team of a hundred, running in the direction of the distress signal.
