Chapter 3166: The Red General's Last Trump Card

~8 min read 1,486 words

Next, the laws of elemental power also failed, which was like her losing her most handy weapon—she could only fight with her fists in close combat, her offensive and defensive power plummeting, while the Holy Lord of the Void Spirit became unprecedentedly strong!

Now, what can she use to resist the step-by-step pressing Holy Lord of the Void Spirit?

The ground war of the War Alliance is only one step away from victory! No matter what, the Red General must hold on.

She took a deep breath, raised the Ying Lei Spear again, and swung it forcefully toward the direction outside the city, shouting loudly: "Come quickly."

Inside and outside Panlong City were covered in snow, except for Mist Valley. The snow falling here melted as much as it fell, not a bit accumulating, even the ground was dry and completely absorbed by the forest.

When the Red General gave the order, the entire Mist Valley suddenly trembled, one small tree after another turning into rainbow light, flying toward the battlefield inside the city.

In just three or five breaths, Mist Valley became a bare, grassless expanse; and in the sky, a meteor shower appeared, because the divine puppets rushing to assist their master numbered over eight hundred!

The dense rainbow light made even the Great Shaman gasp in cold air.

These are nine hundred divine puppets, among which are several great heavenly demons!

Most of these heavenly demons were killed by the ancient death god in antiquity, and another part died in the hands of Lady Lady Lady Mitian later, accumulating little by little.

The Great Shaman could only sigh: Death God truly loves planting trees.

But the Red General previously had no spare energy to release all these divine puppets at once, until the Great Fang Hu absorbed a vast amount of death power—the Holy Lord of the Void Spirit's actions were not only strengthening himself, but also handing a knife to his opponent.

Seeing these rainbow lights, the Holy Lord of the Void Spirit's face darkened like storm clouds overhead.

Just a mere human, merely inheriting Lady Lady Lady Mitian's legacy—how could he be this troublesome!

The Red General pointed her spear tip at the Holy Lord of the Void Spirit and shouted: "Advance!"

As soon as these eight hundred divine puppets entered the battle, they immediately swept the field, clearing the mountains and wilderness of strange beasts completely clean.

Of course, the Holy Lord of the Void Spirit received the most attention.

He lifted his leg and stomped the ground, and thus, from the earth fissures, another hundred or so blue giants or giant beasts appeared—these are avatars of the Life God, used to relieve the pressure on his true self.

But the problem is, these eight hundred divine puppets possess at least eight hundred kinds of divine arts to attack the Holy Lord of the Void Spirit, yet even if he manifests as eight hundred, he lacks eight hundred kinds of divine arts to unleash.

The Holy Lord of the Void Spirit had just dodged Ying Sheng Tian's attack when his right arm suddenly exploded, accompanied by a sharp pain.

He turned his head to see the attacker's face clearly, and his expression changed: "Luo Letian!"

This is a hulking heavenly demon, agile in build, even approaching the Holy Lord of the Void Spirit from behind without being noticed by him.

Before he became the Life God, during the days when he and the other gods were enslaved by the Three Holy Gods, the Great Heavenly God Luo Letian was his closest friend, having saved his life at least twice.

Later, Luo Letian disappeared without cause, and the gods speculated he was also killed by the Three Holy Gods, though without evidence, so it became an unsolved case.

The Holy Lord of the Void Spirit never expected that, after thousands of years of separation, Letian would meet him again in this way.

Luo Letian's specialty divine art is the "Shocking Technique"—he believes that the bones, muscles, and nerves of living beings are tiny units arranged in an orderly, dense manner; as long as this arrangement is destroyed and caused to become disordered, terrifying harm can be inflicted on the living being.

The Holy Lord of the Void Spirit's right arm was directly shattered by the Shocking Technique.

He suppressed the anger in his heart, ignoring that Ying Tian had opened another blood wound in his ribs, clenched his left fist, and fiercely struck Luo Letian's shoulder.

The Holy Lord of the Void Spirit wears a thorn ring on his hand, which can pierce even the tough skin of a great heavenly demon.

Letian has strong defense, his skin thick and flesh tough, even above the Red General's—this punch of the Holy Lord of the Void Spirit cannot kill him. His right arm was also broken, but he could still tremble and stand up.

The divine puppets feel no pain or fear; Letian was about to attack again, but after taking just two steps, his steps slowed, and his posture became strange.

His whole body swelled up like an inflated balloon, and black thorny skin grew on his skin surface.

Luo Letian still charged forward to fight the Holy Lord of the Void Spirit, but the Holy Lord of the Void Spirit ignored him.

His speed kept decreasing, and after about forty breaths, he collapsed on his own and could not get up.

When he fell, he hit the ground with a metallic clang, his whole body as hard as wood or stone.

This is the divine art the Holy Lord of the Void Spirit has only recently researched:

Mutation.

Through the thorn ring, he can inject growth factors into the opponent, triggering a mutation in some tiny unit within their body, then causing frenzied, disordered reproduction, thus inflicting irreversible, terrifying damage from within the enemy.

There's no need to wait for the mad mutation to take over the whole body—the enemy dies long before.

This factor of life mutation is something even great heavenly demons struggle to resist.

The killing power of the Life God is no less than that of the Death God.

Although this consumes a lot of energy, the eight hundred heavenly demon divine puppets each have their own abilities; if the Holy Lord of the Void Spirit does not want to be beaten to death by a mob, he must use the most direct and brutal way to fight quickly and decisively.

He killed two more divine puppets, and the Red General seized the opportunity to thrust her spear forward, piercing his throat.

The Holy Lord of the Void Spirit swung his fist at her, the thorn ring scraping past her helmet, nearly piercing her face.

Phew.

Watching the Holy Lord of the Void Spirit collapse and dissipate, the Red General exhaled heavily, gripped and relaxed her entire body's muscles and bones, for the next fierce battle was about to come.

Before the life force is exhausted, the Holy Lord of the Void Spirit is immortal, so this fellow will soon be reborn.

But these eight hundred divine puppets are her last trump card. They originally could not share the Red General's elemental power, so they are also unaffected by the changes in the laws of elemental power.

How long they can hold back the Holy Lord of the Void Spirit, the Red General does not know.

But however long the War Alliance's ground campaign needs to win, she must strive for that much time!

This is her responsibility, this is her war!

This is also her promise to the Dragon God and humanity.

¥¥¥¥¥

When the War Alliance retreated, the heavenly demons and the guards of Ling Xu City pursued.

When elemental power returned, it was again the War Alliance's turn to launch the main attack, and the heavenly demons and Ling Xu guards withdrew and fled.

Such a back-and-forth offensive and defensive sawtooth pattern was replayed three times in the ground war.

The War Alliance prevailed because of the Red General as a boundaryless insider, able to transmit information about the laws' changes one step earlier to He Lingchuan, thus arranging things relatively calmly: the opposing heavenly demons had headaches, each sudden trough and rebound in the laws left them passive in offense and defense.

And every time elemental power rose, it was a great opportunity for the Nine Abysses Great Emperor to unleash his varied tactics and ruthlessly weaken the heavenly demons!

Until the War Alliance's fourth counterattack, only five great heavenly demons remained, and the heavenly demons numbered less than four thousand!

The War Alliance likewise paid a heavy price: the three true immortals—Lingbao Xian, Tian Feng, and Que Yun Zi—unfortunately fell in battle, while Shuang Ye, Pu Gu Shangren, Di Mu, and Qing Lin all suffered heavy injuries.

But in this great war, Emperor Jiǔyōu personally put an end to Hélù Tiān!
