"Yuan He, come back!" Young Marshal Huan Ying smiled for the first time when he caught the talisman between his fingers. He couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Success, hahahaha …"
Yuan He, who was about to charge forward to kill the enemy, suddenly stopped. He looked at the laughing Young Marshal Huan Ying and asked in surprise, "Young Marshal, could it be?"
It was mainly because in Yuan He's memory, no matter how Young Marshal Huan Ying won in the past, he rarely laughed out loud like this. Of course, in the past, no one had ever forced Young Marshal Huan Ying into such a desperate situation where he had to kill the enemy himself.
"That's right, success! Although I paid an extremely heavy price, that matter is still a success! "Young Marshal Huan Ying calmed himself down and said.
On the other hand, Yuan He took a deep breath. He looked at the tragic battlefield and said, "Young Commander, since that matter has been settled, then we don't have to drag the Wood Spider Domain's Constellation Celestial Monarch's forces down. We should be able to withdraw now, right?"
"That's right, we can withdraw now!" Although he said that, Young Marshal Huan Ying's expression was extremely solemn. "However, withdrawing in this situation is extremely dangerous, but we have to withdraw. Otherwise, the entire army might be trapped here!"
"Young Marshal, you mean that we need a troop to cover the rear?" Yuan He thought for a moment and immediately understood what Young Marshal Huan Ying meant.
"Which troop should we use to cover the rear?" After pausing for a moment, Yuan He asked again. When he asked this question, Yuan He's expression was incomparably solemn. This was because he knew very well that in this kind of situation, whichever unit came to bring up the rear meant that that unit would be sent to their deaths.
In this situation, they could only use their lives to cover the rear!
Young Marshal Huan Ying's gaze swept across the military on the battlefield one by one. His gaze was solemn. After taking a deep breath, he said, "Let's use the first personal guard battalion!"
"Young Marshal, that's your painstaking effort!" Yuan He said anxiously after hearing the name of the troop that Young Marshal Huan Ying mentioned. Only a trusted aide like him knew how much effort Young Marshal Huan Ying had put into his personal guard battalion.
"Soldiers are trained for a thousand days to be used in a single moment. Go and tell them to get ready! Tell them that their wives and children's families are under the protection of this marshal. One of their descendants can be conferred the title of Earl. As for the Earls with their own lands, they can specify who gets it and you can record it down! "Young Marshal Huan Ying slowly instructed.
After a short pause, Huan Ying continued, "Yuanhe, you have half an incense stick's worth of time to do this. After half an incense stick's worth of time, this marshal will personally lead the army to retreat."
"Yes!" With a stern expression, Yuan He's figure flickered and he immediately disappeared.
The fierce battle continued. From time to time, there would be corpses from both sides falling from the sky. The situation of the battle had changed from the initial order to a bloodlust. The battlefield was an existence that could infect people.
"Young Heavenly Lord, Young Marshal Huan Ying is really something. Under such circumstances, the Martial Army of the Southern Overgrown Desolation Star Zone did not panic at all. Instead, they advanced and retreated according to plan. If they had the same military strength, it would be extremely … difficult for them to win!" Ling Dong sighed as he watched the battle enter a stalemate.
Young Heavenly Lord Di Nankun rolled his eyes at Ling Dong. He thought to himself that he had encountered a freak like Ling Dong who could repeatedly bring out powerful reinforcements, causing Young Marshal Huan Ying to misjudge time and time again. In the end, he even forced Huan Ying to use his trump card, General Zhou Tianshen, but Ling Dong still managed to hold him back.
If it had been anyone else, the Martial Army of the Residence of the Celestial Lord of the Wooden Silk Realm would have been killed long ago.
"Eh? Why is the Martial Army of the Southern Overgrown Desolation Star Zone in a mess? What are they doing? "Suddenly, Young Heavenly Lord Di Nankun frowned when he saw the sudden change in the enemy army.
At the same time, two talisman lights fell into Ling Dong and Young Heavenly Lord Di Nankun's hands from behind. They were talisman lights from Fu Xinghe and Jiao Qi, the Commander-in-Chief of the Left and Right Armies.
"Eh? Commander Fu said that the Martial Army of the Southern Overgrown Desolation Star Zone might be retreating? " When Young Heavenly Lord Di Nankun received the talisman lights, he turned to look at Ling Dong. Ling Dong was also looking at Young Heavenly Lord Di Nankun with a puzzled expression. Apparently, he had also received the same talisman lights.
"Retreating? The Martial Army of the Southern Overgrown Desolation Star Zone that had besieged us for thirteen days is retreating all of a sudden? Could it be that they are scared of us? Also, the talisman lights that came from the Northern Sky Wall seemed to be a special communication method of the Southern Overgrown Desolation Star Zone! "Young Heavenly Lord Di Nankun was also puzzled.
"They're retreating all of a sudden?" Ling Dong suddenly shuddered. These days, the Martial Army of the Southern Overgrown Desolation Star Zone had been stalling for time and feigning attacks. Just now, the Martial Army of the Southern Overgrown Desolation Star Zone had refused to retreat no matter how many casualties they suffered. Now, they were retreating all of a sudden. Ling Dong shuddered.
"Could it be that the Southern Overgrown Desolation Star Zone has achieved their true goal?" As he spoke, Ling Dong could not help but look at the Northern Sky Wall.
Di Nankun's face turned pale when he heard this. He looked unnaturally at the Northern Sky Wall. "That's impossible, right?" Di Nankun seemed to want to get comfort and denial from Ling Dong. However, when he saw Ling Dong's solemn expression, he felt even more miserable.
The next moment, Di Nankun, who had realized something, roared like a mad tiger, "Kill! Kill them at all costs! "
However, it was already too late. Even though Ling Dong had given the same order, it was still too late. The Martial Army of the Southern Overgrown Desolation Star Zone was not to be trifled with. Young Marshal Huan Ying's command was even more impressive.
Even though they were retreating, the Martial Army of the Southern Overgrown Desolation Star Zone was still orderly. Most of their forces were focused on defense. Even though the Wood Hulk World's Martial Army was madly counterattacking, they suffered fewer casualties.
Before long, something that shocked Ling Dong the most happened.
One of the most elite troops in the Southern Overgrown Desolation Star Zone's Martial Army was made up of nearly 200 martial artists in the middle and late stage of the Celestial Lord Realm. They quietly formed a strange formation under the cover of the Martial Army.
The instant the Southern Overgrown Desolation Star Zone's Martial Army retreated swiftly, a blood-red light shot up into the sky. In an instant, a black, blood-red canopy that emitted a foul stench filled the air. It instantly blocked the Martial Army of the Celestial Lord of the Wood Hulk World's Martial Army.
"It's the Hundred Poison Blood Canopy …" Young Heavenly Lord Di Nankun was shocked when he saw the sudden appearance of the blood-red canopy. Without any hesitation, he ordered the martial artists around him to stop their pursuit.
This was especially so for the foul stench emitted by the blood-red canopy. Some of the martial artists with lower cultivation bases immediately fell to the ground like dumplings being dropped into a pot when they sniffed it.
At the same time, the Martial Army of the Celestial Lord of the Wood Hulk World's Martial Army swiftly issued an order. The pursuing army immediately retreated a few miles and organized their experts to attack the blood-red canopy from afar.
"What's going on?"
Under Ling Dong's puzzled gaze, Young Heavenly Lord Di Nankun explained to Ling Dong, "This is a method similar to a martial artist's self-detonation to stop the enemy. However, a martial artist's self-detonation doesn't differentiate between friend and foe, and its power is uncontrollable. This Hundred Poison Blood Canopy, on the other hand, can be controlled. Its destructive power isn't strong, but its defensive power is extremely strong. Its main function is to stop the enemy!
With more than a hundred people casting the Hundred Poison Blood Canopy, even if several Zhou Tianshen Envoys work together to attack it, it can still last for half an incense stick's worth of time. The more martial artists cast the Hundred Poison Blood Canopy together, the stronger its defensive power will be!
In my opinion, a Hundred Poison Blood Canopy with such a wide range and thickness should require at least two hundred martial artists to cast it at the same time. Even if we have a dozen Zhou Tianshen Envoys, I'm afraid we won't be able to break this Hundred Poison Blood Canopy in half an incense stick's worth of time.
After half an incense stick's worth of time, the army of the Overgrown Wilds in the south will be able to retreat smoothly … "Young Heavenly Lord Di Nankun smiled bitterly.
Ling Dong frowned and asked in confusion, "It's that strong? Isn't this Hundred Poison Blood Canopy too heaven-defying? The martial artists who cast the Hundred Poison Blood Canopy must have paid a huge price, right? "
"It's not just a huge price. Anyone who casts the Hundred Poison Blood Canopy will have to pay the price with their life!"
Young Heavenly Lord Di Nankun explained, "The Hundred Poison Blood Canopy requires martial artists to consume a poisonous pill called the Hundred Poison Spiritual Explosion Pill. In an extremely short amount of time, the poisonous pill will be used to stimulate the martial artist's potential and unleash all of their potential.
It can increase the martial artist's strength by three to several times depending on the martial artist's situation. Since they are all being stimulated by the poisonous pill, the martial artist's strength can be used in a special way and in a special formation to cast the Hundred Poison Blood Canopy with super strong defensive power. "
After a pause, Di Nankun continued, "Putting aside the fact that the Hundred Poison Spiritual Explosion Pill is extremely precious, the martial artists who consume it have to be at least Celestial Monarch Realm. Otherwise, they won't be able to withstand the terrifying medicinal power.
In other words, more than two hundred Celestial Monarch Realm martial artists' souls, flesh, blood, and bones will all turn into ashes after half an incense stick's worth of time, regardless of whether they are attacked or not … "
"You're saying that the martial artists who cast the formation will all have their souls destroyed and turned into ashes? Isn't that a little too high a price?" Ling Dong gasped.
Di Nankun shook his head. "Compared to the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers, two hundred Celestial Monarch Realm martial artists are nothing. It's worth it!
As far as I know, this is the second time the Southern Overland Star Region's martial army has cast the Hundred Poison Blood Canopy since the start of the war … "
It had to be said that with the addition of Ling Dong's side, the offensive power of the Puppet Wood Realm was extremely strong. Under the powerful long-range attacks, the Hundred Poison Blood Veil lasted for less than three hundred breaths before it collapsed.
Along with the Hundred Poison Blood Canopy, more than two hundred elite martial artists of Young Marshal Huan Ying's personal guards behind the Hundred Poison Blood Canopy were turned into ashes.
As their ashes fluttered in the air, the radiance of a few hundred Cloud Piercing Ships disappeared into the horizon. Ling Dong knew that those were the retreating Southern Overland Star Region's martial army.
"Let's clean up the battlefield …" Young Heavenly Lord Di Nankun sighed softly when he saw the radiance of a few hundred Cloud Piercing Ships disappearing into the horizon. He turned around and looked at the unusually calm northern sky with Ling Dong in the same direction.
Both of them had their own worries there.
At the same time, Young Marshal Huan Ying stood with his hands behind his back on one of the Cloud Piercing Ships among the retreating Southern Overland Star Region's troops. He stared at Ling Dong's shrinking figure and let out a roar that terrified all the martial artists on the ship.
