Chapter 2798 The Burden Unloaded
The Emperor's return turned the tide of the battle. The power of a secret realm is vastly different whether or not its master is present.
Outside the city gate, Jia Loutian, not far away, raised an eyebrow.
Why did the guardian beast's power surge so dramatically? Why did the damage to the city wall heal so quickly?
Geng Yueshen said from the side, "Both dragon sculptures have recovered. This is bad. Now there are five!"
Yes, three more black dragon stone sculptures have emerged from the city wall, making a total of five.
Their size increased by at least 30%, and their abilities suddenly surged. A demon was attempting to climb the wall when, unaware, a third black dragon suddenly appeared from behind and instantly bit off its leg!
If Geng Yue Shen hadn't acted quickly and forcibly pulled Him back, He would have been torn to pieces by the three dragons in the next second.
Furthermore, the demon-devouring vines on the city wall, which were originally fixed to the wall, can now pull their roots out of the wall and transform into mobile vine demons that quickly attack the enemies below the city.
They are slender and agile, quite unlike the bulky and sluggish wood sprites of ordinary wood sprites. Their vines also quickly turn into wood, becoming harder, and their surface is covered with a layer of black waxy sheen. When the black moth's arm blade strikes them, it only leaves a white mark.
After they jump over the wall, the original wall location is not left empty; new demon-devouring vines will grow and mature rapidly, then descend from the wall again...
This cycle continues, and before long a vast army of Demon-Devouring Vines is generated.
The black moths on the field were wiped out in an instant, and the crisis in Panlong City was temporarily eased.
“Panlong City’s strength is rapidly increasing.” Jia Loutian looked up at the top of the battlements. “Those leaders are also gone.”
What happened? Did these guards find a new way to activate the energy of the Panlong Secret Realm, or...?
Jia Loutian then asked Geng Yue Shen, "How long will it take for Bai Zhantian and Tong Ming Zhenjun to arrive?"
"Before we came in, He said it would be about fifteen minutes," Geng Yue Shen silently calculated the time. "It should be almost time now, right?"
……
Meanwhile, at the South Gate Square behind the Panlong Gate, He Yue also ran down the city wall, leaving only Ling Jinbao behind.
In war, we can't leave people on the city walls.
"Big brother!" He Yue rushed down the stairs, and when he saw his brother standing there, without a doubt, his eyes reddened.
The two brothers put their arms around each other and gave each other a hug.
After so many years apart, I never imagined that our reunion would take place in this situation. How could I not feel a pang of emotion?
He Lingchuan immediately asked him, "Are you injured?"
Compared to the last time I saw him, He Yue had lost a lot of weight, his cheekbones were prominent, and his face was darker. All the innocence and naivety of his youth was gone.
But his gaze toward He Lingchuan remained full of sincerity and trust.
True brotherly love cannot be erased by time.
"It's just a minor injury." He Yue looked at him in surprise and asked, "Brother, what happened to your eye?"
My brother's eyes were bloodshot, as if he had been punched, and they were bright red.
The question is, who has the guts and the ability to beat up the Nine Nether Emperor?
Others also saw it, but they didn't dare to ask as fluently as he did.
"It's just a minor injury, nothing to worry about." He Lingchuan said casually. "Is this all the people you brought?"
He is the backbone of everyone here; his calmness makes everyone else calm as well.
He Yue gritted his teeth: "Changshan Ke and Qingshudi Jun, who accompanied me on the march, have both sacrificed their lives!"
Changshan Ke was that giant black eagle, one of the celestial birds of Shen Kingdom. Entrusted by He Chunhua, he accompanied He Yue on his expedition, but unexpectedly perished on the Earth Mother Plain.
"Lord Qing Shudi has sacrificed himself!" He Lingchuan was shocked and looked at Immortal Ming Ke. The latter also looked somber.
Immortal Mingke said solemnly, "Qingshu and Changshan Ke unfortunately died in battle while covering our retreat!"
He Yue's eyes were bloodshot: "The Heavenly Demons killed my son, all for this day's scheme! Brother, I will never share the same sky with them!"
They had previously held out in the Earth Mother Plain and the Panlong Secret Realm, determined to die fighting the enemy. However, upon seeing He Lingchuan appear, their blood surged and their emotions were overwhelming.
The Nine Nether Emperor is the backbone of everyone; with him around, everything is under his control.
Both He Yue and Ming Ke felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off their shoulders.
He Lingchuan remained expressionless, but a vein throbbed on his forehead:
"A blood debt must be repaid in blood!"
Under heaven, only He Lingchuan dares to speak so arrogantly to the Heavenly Demon without sounding out of place.
There are two pressing issues to be addressed in the Panlong Secret Realm: first, to secure the gates of Panlong City; and second, to find out what happened to the Earth Mother.
"I reinforced the South Gate." He used the power of the Great Evolution Heavenly Pearl to suppress the South Gate and the city wall, "gathering the power of all the secret realms and pouring it into the South Gate, making it indestructible in a short time."
The power of the Great Evolution Heavenly Pearl is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Before it was perfected, Miao Zhantian and Qianhuan Zhenren fought a great battle within the sea of consciousness formed by the Great Evolution Heavenly Pearl, but they could not destroy it. After He Lingchuan obtained this pearl, he first let it accompany him in his campaigns in the south and north. After establishing his country, he let it stay in Ju City, the capital of Cangyan, for fifteen years, where it was soaked in the power of the mortal world.
From Panlong Ancient City to the capital of Yao Kingdom, and then to Ju City of Cangyan, this Great Evolution Heavenly Pearl changed hands several times. It took two hundred years of arduous cultivation to finally achieve its goal, and with the help of the Great Square Pot, it condensed the Panlong Secret Realm.
Its power is far beyond what ordinary immortals and demons can overcome.
Furthermore, with He Lingchuan's return, the entire secret realm seemed to come alive, emanating an unfriendly aura towards the enemy.
However, He Lingchuan poured all the power of the Great Evolution Heavenly Pearl into the South Gate, which is equivalent to designating the South Gate as the "array eye" of the secret realm. As long as the Heavenly Demon on the other side breaks the South Gate, the Panlong Secret Realm will also be broken and dissipated.
Yes, as long as...
How many troops are left in the city?
Yang Sheng replied, "The Black Armor Army, plus the Shen Kingdom's troops, totals two thousand one hundred men."
They had already lost many people in the pursuit of the first two groups of demons; when they tried to use the same trick a third time, they ran into Bai Zhan Tian, a tough opponent, and lost more than a thousand people in one fell swoop!
It was precisely because Yang Sheng had too few troops that he dared not send them out of the city during the battle in the secret realm.
Facing a large number of immortals and demons, sending out this number of troops would be futile.
He Lingchuan then asked He Yue, "Where is your army?"
"I've ordered them to come from southwest of Kunlonghu, and they should arrive within an hour." The main force of the Shen Kingdom has an army of 100,000!
With the advantage of the Earth Mother Plains, they might not be without a fighting chance against immortals and demons.
This is one of the reasons that kept everyone going through the ordeal.
He Lingchuan nodded: "Very good."
Once this army of 100,000 enters the Earth Mother Plain, it will be a formidable force and a crucial asset in the fight against the Heavenly Demons. He Yue astutely grasped this contradiction and mobilized the main force here in advance, which greatly pleased He Lingchuan.
