Chapter 942: Chapter 420: Breaking Through the Barrier
Three days passed quickly, as the Six Domains Alliance launched the final battle against the Nine Realms Dynasty. Without any tricks or tactics, Nie Sanling simply plunged everything he had into the battlefield, ready to fight to the death.
Under immense pressure, Suo Wuchang began to mobilize troops, constantly filling in the gaps in the defensive lines breached by the Six Domains Alliance.
At this moment, both sides knew the war had entered its hardest stage. The strong army no longer resembled its former self, merely a vague presence; this time, the strong army had become the main force on the battlefield. The contest between strong armies almost decided the balance of victory.
Suo family’s strong army, the Mouri troops, after receiving Suo Wuchang’s orders, charged onto the battlefield like mad bulls that had been let out of their cages. Any soldier hit by these guys, regardless of their strength, would be thrown far away; those with a good physique might survive half-dead, the weaker ones were essentially done for.
This Mouri army of the Suo family was indeed peculiar. In fact, their numbers weren’t large, even fewer than the Luo family’s Jinghong Guards in this final battle, but they played the role of a disruptor on the battlefield, far surpassing the impact of Jinghong Guards.
The Mouri army was crafted as a top-level strong army by the Suo family, though their focus wasn’t on slaughtering. As described above, their role as disruptors was more fitting.
Each Mouri soldier practiced a special profession provided by the Suo family, possessing strange bull transformation abilities. Once this ability is activated, they transform into rampaging bulls, gaining power beyond the limits of the Third Transition. Against regular Heavenly Gods, their mere physique can withstand attacks, with astonishing defensive ability. Even the Jinghong Guards find it extremely difficult to defeat a frenzied Mouri soldier, let alone regular soldiers.
With their robust physique complemented by exclusive armor developed by the Suo family, their impact power is further amplified, making such a strong army a lifelong nightmare for any opponent on the battlefield.
Sure enough, as the Mouri troops charged into the battlefield like rampaging bulls, nearly unstoppable, they easily dispersed formations organized by the Six Domains Alliance. Meanwhile, those Jinghong Guards following closely behind began reaping enemy lives in a frenzy.
With the cooperation of the two strong armies, gruesome blood trails were left throughout the enormous battlefield.
Nie Sanling and others naturally witnessed the prowess of the two strong armies, Zuo Ku solemnly clasped his hands and said, “Marshal, we must find a way to curb the Jinghong Guards and Mouri troops, or we’ll lose countless soldiers in vain.”
Nie Sanling nodded, then said, “Order the Zhou, Qian, and Wu families to deploy strong armies and pin them down for me!”
The Zhou, Qian, and Wu families were relatively weak regional families, but like the Shen, Li, and Tai families, they formed an offensive-defensive alliance a thousand years ago. Therefore, though each family’s strong army individually was only mid-level, when united, they could exhibit combat power more than five times stronger.
The three family armies had methods of cooperation to offer mutual assistance.
Upon receiving Nie Sanling’s orders, the Zhou, Qian, and Wu tribes dared not slack and immediately deployed their strong armies, dashing towards the rampant Mouri troops and Jinghong Guards on the battlefield.
United, the three family armies could release a unique spatial formation, dragging targets into a special space. Nie Sanling’s idea was simple; the Mouri troops and Jinghong Guards may be formidable, but he planned to drag these strong armies away. Not able to beat them, but capable of removing them from the battlefield.
As the three family armies gathered strength, the Mouri troops and Jinghong Guards began to disappear from the battlefield, dragged into a mysterious space. Though not damaged in that space, it would take considerable effort and time to return, during which they couldn’t threaten the battle situation.
Across the vast battlefield, Magic Power surged wildly, Divine-level weapons were fired recklessly as if they cost nothing, even worldly relics were fully unleashed, constantly suppressing the enemy’s camp.
During the Nine Realms Dynasty and Six Domains Alliance’s decisive battle, Night Hunting Pass faced a tragic curtain call.
Yes, the Night Hunters lost, their king’s mighty body pierced by a long spear, nailed against the city tower, the once majestic Night Hunting Pass now soaked in blood.
The Eighteen Realms King floated in mid-air, looking indifferently at the blood-soaked Night Hunting Pass.
“Do not forget your promise.”
A weak voice echoed from the void, heavy with fatigue and weariness.
“Haha, rest assured, we Kings shall keep our word. Since you agreed to assist, we will not act faithlessly.”
Upon hearing the First Realm King’s response, the voice from the void replied again, “Good, then I’ll trust you for now.”
The voice gradually drifted away until it dissipated.
The fall of Night Hunting Pass was anticipated by those aware of the joint invasion by the Eighteen Realms Kings, but no one expected it to collapse so quickly, especially with assistance from the Shen, Li, and Tai families.
Ironically, without the Shen, Li, and Tai families’ involvement, Night Hunting Pass might have held on a bit longer.
Shen Lianxin stood atop the city tower, respectfully bowing towards the sky’s Eighteen Realms Kings, “Shen Family, Shen Lianxin greets you, esteemed Kings!”
The Second Realm King looked down at Shen Lianxin beneath him and spoke, “In breaking Night Hunting Pass, your Shen Family contributed greatly. I permit your Shen Family to enter my Second Realm, under my protection.”
Hearing the Second Realm King’s words, Shen Lianxin was delighted and promptly bowed again, “Thank you, esteemed Second Realm King, for your generosity!”
News of the Shen Family’s betrayal of the Nine Domains, siding with the Eighteen Realms, was hard to believe, yet it indeed happened. The Shen Family sabotaged Night Hunting Pass’s formation core internally, causing the formation to fail. The Night King had no choice but to battle the Eighteen Realms Kings again. But unexpectedly, along with the Eighteen Realms Kings came three Primordial Fierce Beasts of God Lord Level power.
Under the siege of twenty-one Divine Lords, the Night King finally couldn’t hold on, nailed dead atop the city tower.
With the Night King’s defeat, the Eighteen Realms Kings, without any display of mastery, launched attacks on others at Night Hunting Pass, needing no army, as they alone slaughtered everyone in the pass, leaving no escape.
After clearing Night Hunting Pass, the eighteen Realms Kings were in high spirits, having lifted a burden weighing on them for tens of thousands of years. Now, they had completely opened the route to the Nine Domains.
The Fifth Realm King turned to the ever-converging army and spoke, “The Nine Domains are ours now. Go, my warriors, let those who once stood high in the Nine Domains witness what lies under the Eighteen Realms. Let them feel eternal darkness, let them savor the taste of blood!”
“Roar!”
“Kill!”
Instantly, roars and shouts echoed through the skies. Countless Eighteen Realms creatures surged past Night Hunting Pass, pouring into the interior of the Nine Domains.
Yet amidst this torrent, a small counterflow entered the Second Realm of the Eighteen Realms.
“Father!” Entering the Second Realm, Shen Rulong, who had been silently following Shen Lianxin, couldn’t help but speak, “Why did we betray Night Hunting Pass?!”
Hearing this question, Shen Lianxin stopped in his tracks, turning to gaze back at the long remaining Shen family procession, every face marked with loneliness and sorrow.
They had prepared to sacrifice themselves to protect Night Hunting Pass. However, at the crucial moment, they received Shen Lianxin’s order to sabotage the pass’s formation and not resist the Eighteen Realms’ invasion.
Loyal to their family, the Shen people naturally could not defy the Clan Leader’s order, yet they couldn’t understand why the Clan Leader would give such an order.
“You’re all curious too, right?” Shen Lianxin amplified his voice with Magic Power, allowing it to reach more Shen family members’ ears.
Upon hearing Shen Lianxin’s words, all the Shen family disciples bowed slightly, “We implore the family to speak clearly!”
“Alright then, let me tell you, in truth, my Shen family is not of the Human Race!”
