Chapter 2793: Bai Zhan Tian

That voice continued to sneer coldly: "To describe your own blunder as refreshingly unconventional—your cheek is certainly thick enough to bear the post of Bekka's commander!"

But its tone also softened, showing that Gao Huaiyuan's sophistry was not entirely without merit.

Gao Huaiyuan said in a low voice: "The Panlong troops are insufficient, yet we must still send heavy reinforcements to the Binding Dragon Formation, diverting the central route. Seizing this opportunity, we can launch a fierce assault and break the deadlock in one stroke!"

Saying this, he bowed his head respectfully: "Now the battle is stalemated; please, Bai Zhan Tian Zun, intervene!"

Everyone says the Great Heavenly Demon possesses omnipotent power, yet Bai Zhan Tian has clearly arrived and yet refuses to personally take the field.

His power should have been reserved for dealing with Panlong's top experts, but Ling Xu Sheng Zun is dissatisfied with Bekka's army's current progress, so he ordered him to act immediately.

Gao Huaiyuan, however, felt that this battle opportunity had been seized quite well by the Sheng Zun.

Though one must eat rice bite by bite and fight a war step by step, the stalemate in Mingsha Forest has indeed reached a point where the Great Heavenly Demon must give a hard push to break the deadlock.

The Sheng Zun's command must be obeyed by the Great Heavenly Demon.

Thus, behind Gao Huaiyuan stepped out a tall man, who flipped his left hand, and immediately a totem hovered above his left shoulder.

He then thrust three streams of orange flame toward the battlefield, murmuring softly:

"Go!"

These three streams of orange flame flew respectively to the dual lines of the central route and the Longkeng battlefield—namely, the three most intense locations of today's battle.

Before landing, they were three blazing orange fireballs, each at least thirty zhang in diameter, streaking across the battlefield's night sky, impossible to ignore.

As they descended, both friend and foe braced themselves as if facing a great enemy.

Upon impact, these three fireballs exploded, blasting open a vast area, yet produced not a single sound.

Moreover, they possessed no lethal force—those caught in the blast did not lose even a single hair.

Everyone felt bewildered, yet saw the orange fire beneath their feet slowly fade, forming some glowing lines.

Only from high above or afar could one see them particularly clearly:

On the ground of these three battle zones, a colossal circular pattern had appeared, each at least five hundred zhang in diameter!

This is also the largest rune ever to appear on the battlefield so far.

Yet it bears no complex design; at the exact center of the circle is a large sphere, rotating on its own; around it, as if centered on this sphere, three to five smaller spheres orbit it, each on a different path.

When they rotate together, they resemble a planet and its own satellites.

In the human realm, no formation is like this.

Chen Enya naturally noticed the anomaly in these three places; everyone crowded to the cliff's edge to gaze. Zhong Shengguang's face was like severe frost, and he said in a deep voice: "Bai Zhan Tian is already intervening this early!"

Yes, this circular pattern is Bai Zhan Tian's unique mark, and also the pattern projected by his divine essence.

He Lingchuan interjected: "His impatience shows that the Ling Xu gods are very dissatisfied with the progress of this great war, and also shows that relying solely on Bekka's army makes it hard to deal with us."

This is a good thing—it appears some problems have arisen within the enemy's ranks.

Fighting to this point, both sides show clear signs of fatigue, gritting their teeth and holding on. As the overall battlefield commander of Panlong, he can clearly sense that Bekka's army's yuan power has declined again.

If they continue fighting by the old routine, Bekka's army's advance will only become more difficult.

Xu Shichu's brows were nearly knotted: "He won't be easy to handle; the pressure on us below the city is too great!"

The big boss is about to appear, and the intensity of this great war must rise to a new level. Xu Shichu dare not imagine what the final outcome of this war will be.

He Lingchuan had long studied the gods; he oversees Cangyan and has records on each Great Heavenly Demon's personality, talents, divine nature, and battle achievements. As soon as this pattern appeared, he knew the intelligence on Jielie Tian was accurate—indeed, among the Great Heavenly Demons descending this time, Bai Zhan Tian is certainly present!

From his title alone, one can know Bai Zhan Tian's battlefield performance is exceptionally outstanding. Indeed, whether in the divine realm or the human realm, Bai Zhan Tian has time and again proven his formidable combat prowess; had it not been for Mitian's prior fame, the title of "War God" in the divine realm would have rightly belonged to him.

Since tonight is Bekka's final battle against Panlong, and also the most crucial battle determining whether Ling Xu Sheng Zun's divine descent plan can succeed, his dispatching of Bai Zhan Tian is entirely justified, for Bai Zhan Tian's talents and divine nature are almost unaffected by yuan power!

Those three orange light circular runes basically cover the most intense combat zones, and they also follow the battlefield's center of movement—wherever the fighting is fiercest, they shift there, not merely staying in one place.

Within their coverage, whether friend or foe, soldier or expert, human or demon beast, as long as one bears wounds, fine orange sparks will seep from the injury and then be sucked into the ground's rune.

The most striking is the Longkeng battlefield: the chains on the Binding Dragon Pillars have torn two large holes in the elephant's body, blood spraying in all directions, while a great number of orange light points are shaken loose from those wounds and completely taken by the rune, not a single one left behind.

At the same time, the middle-aged man behind Gao Huaiyuan, whose shoulder bore a hovering totem, began to emit an orange glow—initially faint, but gradually growing brighter.

He also finally walked toward the central battlefield.

Though it seemed like a leisurely stroll, each step could span dozens of zhang.

On the Enya Cliff, Wen Daolun could not help but ask:

"What kind of divine technique is this again?"

He was not entirely clear on Bai Zhan Tian's abilities. It seemed Bai Zhan Tian was drawing something from the battlefield.

Could it be the vitality of myriad living beings? How sinister.

"This is most likely Bai Zhan Tian's divine nature, 'mutual waxing and waning.'" Xu Shichu replied, "Through this divine nature, he seems able to gather the……power lost from living beings and concentrate it upon himself."

"It is energy—the energy lost by all living beings in battle." He Lingchuan corrected, "He believes this energy does not simply vanish, so he absorbs it all into himself, transforming it into his own power."

He gave a cold smile: "The Way of Man is to take from the deficient to give to the abundant. The Way of the Gods is also the Way of Man."

Wen Daolun asked: "Is it not directly drawing out the original power inherent in living beings?"

"No." He Lingchuan shook his head, "Such an evil divine nature is possessed by another heavenly god."

Zhong Shengguang interrupted them:

"I have seen Bai Zhan Tian—he is already nearing the central battlefield."

As they spoke, the Water Moon Mirror had already captured the footage of Bai Zhan Tian entering the battlefield. He Lingchuan looked, and his gaze locked.

This figure, this face—how could he forget?

Cangxi Zhenjun!

This is the mortal skin of the ancient true immortal Cangxi Zhenjun.

After Cangxi Zhenjun fell, his skin was taken by the Ling Xu gods and preserved ever since. In the real world, Miao Zhantian descended and overturned the sea, using precisely Cangxi Zhenjun's skin.

And in the Panlong world, Ling Xu Sheng Zun has lent this skin to Bai Zhan Tian for use!
