The wolf cavalry stared in horror at the place where the sound waves had passed. It was as if locusts had passed through the area of a thousand meters in front of Ding Ning. Not a single blade of grass grew, and even the rocks on the ground were shattered. The warriors affected were as fragile as paper tigers, turning into piles of meat paste. That terrifying scene caused one's hair to stand on end and their scalps to go numb.
They all had the same thought in their minds. With such a terrifying divine ability, what was there to fear about an army of ten million? As long as he continuously let out thousands of roars, the army of ten million would also be annihilated.
But what they did not know was that although the sound wave divine ability that Ding Ning had named 'Tidal Shock Wave' was ridiculously powerful, it did not come without a price. Just this roar with all his strength had already consumed a great deal of Ding Ning's energy, and his martial soul was in danger of dissipating at any moment.
Divine abilities, divine abilities, consumed the power of one's soul. Although the martial soul was not the soul, and was only the manifestation of one's martial will and comprehended laws, its source was still the soul.
Although the power of the Tidal Shock Wave was great, it also consumed a great deal of energy. Ding Ning estimated that with the current strength of his soul, being able to continuously release three Tidal Shock Waves would be his limit. Any more and it would harm his foundation.
His soul was still not strong enough. If it could reach the strength of a Saint Martial realm's soul, he would probably be able to continuously release six or seven Tidal Shock Waves.
Ding Ning muttered to himself, and then transmitted his voice to Lang Yuan, instructing, "I'll leave first. You guys stay here and keep an eye on them. Kill them all. Remember, those who can survive in the end are all experts. You guys must be careful."
Lang Yuan nodded repeatedly in understanding. The army of a million had already killed each other to such an extent. If they still could not kill the survivors unscathed, then they would be too embarrassed to face others.
"Oh, right, you don't have to worry about the corpses. After confirming that everyone is dead, you can just take a detour back to the camp. I don't need the military merits. Just put it on your heads."
Ding Ning's figure had already disappeared, but his words still echoed in Lang Yuan's ears.
Lang Yuan straightened his body and punched his left chest with his right fist, solemnly performing a military salute to express his respect.
With only ten thousand wolf riders, they had annihilated an army of a million soldiers. This was definitely a great merit, but the only thing they had to do was wait here and kill the survivors. They had not experienced any danger at all. It could be said that this great merit had been given to them by the Commander, so how could Lang Yuan not be moved to tears?
The blue-haired Ding Ning was on the verge of dissipating, so he did not dare to stay any longer. After warning Lang Yuan, he quickly reunited with his original body. The original body was the origin of the Martial Spirit. When the Martial Spirit was injured, it had to merge with the original body before it dissipated in order to be repaired. Otherwise, once the Martial Spirit completely dissipated, the original body would also be heavily injured, and it would take a very long time to condense a new Martial Spirit.
The Falling Gorge Forest was a primeval forest located at the junction of two green mountains. The gorge was narrow and narrow, only hundreds of kilometers wide, but thousands of kilometers long.
Before the Huai King fell into a deep sleep, this was an unimpeded and safe passage. But now that the Huai King had fallen into a deep sleep, who knew if this place was still safe or not?
But what gave the Lion King and the others a headache was that this was the passage that the Thousand Demon City's army had to pass through to reach the battlefield. If they took a detour, they would have to travel at least hundreds of thousands of kilometers.
Speed was paramount in war, and this was absolutely unacceptable to the Monster Kings who were eager to start the final battle. Therefore, when they were still a few hundred kilometers away from the Falling Gorge Forest, the five Monster Kings made a response. They first sent a group of people to speed up and enter the Falling Gorge Forest to scout the way. After clearing out all possible hidden threats, they let the army pass through the Falling Gorge Forest.
The mighty army finally arrived at the edge of the Falling Gorge Forest. The five Monster Kings sat in the middle of the army and ordered the army to rest and reorganize, waiting for the vanguard to clear out any obstacles before setting off.
As the vanguard had arrived a few hours earlier, their scouting speed was also very fast. Not long after, a military intelligence officer came to report, "Report, Commander Ao Xuan sent a scout to report that the Falling Gorge Forest has been thoroughly searched, and no traces of the enemy were found. On both sides of the passage, there are soldiers stationed every hundred meters. The army can pass through."
"Good, pass down the order, the army is to move out!"
Luo Yunji gave the order in high spirits, and did not forget to turn around and sneer, "Everyone says that Ding Ning is a godly commander, but he doesn't know how to make use of such a good ambush site. I think he's just so-so."
The four Monster Kings' expressions were a little ugly. Although the Lion King was mocking Ding Ning on the surface, he was actually mocking them for their incompetence. Under the circumstances where they had an absolute advantage in terms of military strength, they were actually defeated. This made them feel a burning sensation on their faces.
However, the Lion King's sarcasm was vague, and what he said was the truth, so they could not refute him. They could only maintain their silence with gloomy faces, and secretly discussed with each other through telepathy. After they obtained the final victory, they would definitely teach this arrogant old lion a lesson.
Zi Que 'er originally wanted to remind the Lion King not to be careless, but when she saw his smug look, she knew that even if she said it, he would not listen to her. He might even mock her for being beaten up by Ding Ning. After thinking about it, she decided not to seek trouble for herself, and obediently shut her mouth.
In any case, she had never placed her hopes of victory on the war. The final battle between the high-end combat strength was the key to the final victory. It would naturally be good if they won, but it was fine even if they lost. As long as they immediately took the initiative to initiate the final battle between the top-notch combat strength after they were defeated, it would be fine as long as those fence-sitters who had been watching from the sidelines and wanted a share of the spoils did not have time to participate in the war.
This was the main reason why the four major clans and the Golden Lion Clan had turned out in full force this time. They wanted to make use of the time difference and immediately initiate the final battle between the top-notch combat strength before the other observing clans could react.
The four major clans, the Golden Lion Clan, and the powerhouses from their vassal clans had more than 500 peak-stage Daemon Kings, while the Winged Clan Alliance only had slightly more than 200 peak-stage Daemon Kings. In a situation where the difference in the number of powerhouses was more than double, there was no suspense at all in the final battle.
Therefore, the four great Daemon Kings and the Lion King were very confident, and their mentality was also very relaxed. They were too confident in this battle, and there was no possibility of them losing at all.
The sky above the Fallen Gorge Forest was densely packed with intersecting branches. Thick vines that had grown for countless years coiled around the ancient trees, and they were as ferocious and terrifying as crisscrossing horned dragons.
Gusts of wind blew past, causing the leaves to rustle. The swaying shadows of the trees were indistinct, and they swayed in a myriad of poses, as if a group of demons were dancing wildly.
The lush canopy of the trees made it difficult for sunlight to shine on the ground. Occasionally, the sunlight that seeped through the rustling leaves would shine on the damp and decayed ground through the faint water vapor in the forest, carving out the mottled traces of decay over time, and bringing a ray of obscure light to this gloomy and gloomy forest passageway.
* Sha sha sha sha … *
The army of the Thousand Demon City moved cautiously and carefully through the forest. Their heavy and messy footsteps and endless orders gradually disturbed the tranquility and peace of the forest, and it became noisy and lively.
As they already knew that this primeval forest had been cleared by the vanguard troops, the army subconsciously became very relaxed, and they lost their usual vigilance and vigilance.
Demon King Zi Que 'er waited until the main army safely passed through the deep and gloomy Fallen Gorge Forest, and could already see the edge of the forest, before her heart, which had been hanging in her throat, gradually calmed down.
It seemed like the Lion King was right. The newly promoted War God of the Winged Alliance was only so-so. Even though she was not proficient in military affairs, she could still see that the Fallen Gorge Forest was the most suitable place for an ambush. Yet, that War God could not even see this point. He really did not live up to his name.
Just as she was making her evaluation in her heart, a sudden change occurred.
The earth shook with a loud boom, as if the heavens were falling and the earth was splitting apart, breaking all the peace and tranquility!
Without hesitation, the five Great Demon Kings flew into the air, leaping into the air and turning their heads to look at the lush forest. All of their faces instantly turned pale.
They saw the towering green mountains on both sides of the gorge suddenly collapse, as if two towering giants had suddenly collapsed, directly burying the path they had come from. The endless sea of forest seemed to have been wiped out in an instant, and nearly half of the forest had disappeared from their sight. What replaced it was a sky full of dust, forming a huge mushroom cloud in the air that shot up into the sky.
"Crazy, they've gone crazy. This is King Huai's split plant, how dare they …"
The Black Tiger King's entire body trembled, his face pale as he muttered, but before he could finish his sentence, he could not continue.
Facts speak louder than words. Not only did the other party dare to do this, they had also put it into action.
"What a big move, but King Huai did not react at all. Could it be that he has really fallen silent?"
The Green Flood Dragon King swallowed his saliva bitterly, and guessed in disbelief.
"It seems that this is indeed the case. Otherwise, they would not have dared to destroy King Huai's split plant like this."
The White Bear King's large bell-like eyes were wide open, and his lips trembled as he spoke.
"Who cares about King Huai now? Take care of our army first."
After the Lion King recovered from his shock, he roared in exasperation, "Men, quickly go and count the losses!"
"Yes, Lion King!"
The dumbfounded military intelligence officer finally came to his senses at the Lion King's roar, and after responding, he scrambled away to order his men to count the losses.
The five Great Demon Kings' faces were as dark as still water, and they stood quietly in their original spots. It was as if a huge rock had been blocked in their hearts, and a heavy shadow was cast over them. The heavy atmosphere was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.
They seemed to be waiting for the final statistical results, but only they knew in their hearts that at this moment, their minds had already gone blank. There was only one question that kept reverberating in their minds. King Huai's silence was only a guess. Where did the Winged Clan Alliance get the courage to destroy one of their clones?
If they knew that King Huai's split plant did not react at all when it was burned to ashes last night, perhaps they would understand why Ding Ning was so daring.
Although only half of the Forest Sea had been destroyed, they knew very well that at least two to three million soldiers had not made it out of the Forest of Death in time. The losses were so great that they could not bear it. However, they still held on to a sliver of hope that perhaps some of those soldiers would be able to escape from the disaster.
The Lion King's face was ashen. He remembered how he had shamelessly boasted that the so-called God of War Ding Ning was only so-so, but in the blink of an eye, he had been slapped in the face. His face immediately burned, and he wanted to find a hole to hide in.
Fortunately, the four Great Demon Kings were in a very heavy mood and were not in the mood to laugh at him. Otherwise, he would have lost a lot of face.
"Report …"
It seemed like only an instant, but it also seemed like a century had passed. Just as the five Great Demon Kings were pacing back and forth in silence, like ants on a hot pan, the military intelligence officer ran over like a stray dog and shouted in a long, tearful voice.
"Don't be so long-winded. Hurry up and tell me what the situation is."
The Lion King could tell from his emotions that the situation was not optimistic. He could not help but feel a burst of irritation and impatiently urged.
