Chapter 3167
It is the supreme commander of the celestial demon ground war, and when the Nine Abyssal Great Emperor raised the head of Hekulu Heaven high on the battlefield, the defenses of Lingxu City collapsed instantly!
The Lingxu army outside the city knelt and surrendered, weeping bitterly;
And inside the city, no matter how the celestial demons whipped them, the garrison scattered and fled, refusing to climb the walls, dead or alive.
Under the immense pressure of the War Alliance, they held out until now before collapsing—already quite steadfast.
The great army completely disintegrated, like a dam bursting, and even the supervising celestial demons were helpless.
The formation within the layered walls of Lingxu City was also severed by someone in the chaos—no one knows who. War Alliance artillery roared, and the city walls collapsed with a bang!
This time, the walls of Lingxu City would not self-heal; the War Alliance army surged through the breach like a tide, occupying this six-hundred-year-old renowned city.
Seeing that Lingxu City was lost and held no further defensive value, and with no word from the Holy Sovereign of Lingxu, the celestial demons had no choice but to scatter and flee.
Once they had made up their minds to escape, on such an open battlefield, the War Alliance would find it hard to detain them, and He Lingchuan did not wish to forcibly detain them either—he had more important matters to attend to.
"Separately detain the Lingxu commanders, and have Shuangye guard the two great celestial demons."
Zhu Xiuer heard the voice and, using four legs, painfully crawled over: "Shuangye is missing again.
It has suffered heavy injuries once more, yet it is cheerful. Zhu Erniang is feeding it blood pearls: 'You're about to die—can you stop moving about wildly?'"
Shuangye slipped away without a word, and He Lingchuan found it unsurprising. This person comes and goes as they please, befriends or opposes as they wish, unbound by worldly ties. He was fortunate that Shuangye stood by his side in this extraordinary great battle.
Mou Di timely interjected: "I will conclude the ground war; you only need to proceed to Wuji with peace of mind."
He was well aware that He Lingchuan still had a world-shaking great battle to fight. Compared to the life-and-death struggle in Wuji, the previous ground war was merely an appetizer.
He Lingchuan nodded, stood on the gate of Lingxu City, and looked back at the battlefield—only to see severed limbs and broken walls scattered everywhere, corpses piled haphazardly, deep pits blasted by divine powers everywhere, and fissures in the earth caused by heavenly disasters—
So-called human purgatory is nothing more than this.
But the War Alliance won, after all, they won.
The fall of Lingxu City marks the complete end of the Bekka era, marking that the celestial demons' power in the human realm can no longer find a foothold.
Next, the Nine Abyssal Great Emperor must rush to another battlefield to ensure that the chief culprits of the two-realm war cannot again bring calamity upon the human realm.
Liu Qingdao also rushed onto the city wall: "We have just received reports from the southwest and northeast—residents of over a dozen villages and towns suddenly died violently, green light spots appearing on their bodies, then they flew into the sky and vanished. Those places often have no survivors."
"Did the same happen to the residents of Lingxu City?"
"Not yet detected."
He Lingchuan had not yet had time to ask further when the divine bone pendant inside his robe trembled three times.
The laws of primordial force had changed again.
Every change in the laws makes He Lingchuan's heart leap with fear, for the battles in Wuji and on the ground must necessarily change accordingly.
Fortunately, the ground battle has basically ended, and the War Alliance won. No matter how the primordial force laws change, the celestial demons cannot possibly stage a comeback in the short term.
Xiao Hanzi, who leads the immortals in pursuit of the celestial demons, also urgently transmitted a voice message: "Divine arts against celestial demons have failed due to the primordial force!"
"X!" He Lingchuan could not help but burst out a swear, turning to Mou Di and saying, "Be wary of a celestial demon resurgence—I will go ahead first. Even in the previous primordial force low tide, he could prioritize supplying the remaining primordial force to the Red General, ensuring her smooth battle in Wuji.
But this time the change in the laws is too much of a pitfall—it is actually the divine arts against celestial demons that have failed!
If the battle for Lingxu City had not yet ended, this change might perhaps prolong the campaign and delay victory.
One can only say that as the God of Fate, he still has two portions of fortune with him.
But the Red General's battle in Wuji has surely fallen into a hellish situation!
That she could hold out until the ground war victory is already a tremendous miracle. He Lingchuan cannot even imagine how she will cope with this drastic change in the laws!
He was anxious as burning, drew a deep breath, and without displaying any mighty divine feats, his form vanished from the scene.
The high-ranking members of the War Alliance present all understood that he had returned to the Panlong Secret Realm to assist the Red General.
Dong Rui clasped his hands together, raised them above his head, and sincerely prayed: "May the Dragon God bless them to return victorious!"
He voiced the heartfelt wish of countless people.

The aquatic puppet Xuandu in the moat let out a final roar of anger and collapsed, unable to endure.
It was the first divine puppet summoned by the Red General, and its persistence until now could be called a miracle.
After Xuandu collapsed, the dozens of aquatic beasts it had summoned also vanished simultaneously, and the Holy Sovereign of Lingxu's army of strange beasts surged into the water, beginning to cross over and climb ashore.
The moat was thus lost.
The Red General happened to land on the broken wall of Panlong City, a sweep of her spear wind clearing away the thousands of strange beasts that had just crossed the river and climbed ashore.
A flash of green light appeared before her eyes; without hesitation, she leapt. The Holy Sovereign of Lingxu struck with a halberd at her former position, and the city wall collapsed again in a large section.
Before the Red General landed, the Holy Sovereign of Lingxu followed like a shadow, and the remaining dozen or so divine puppets also rushed to rescue their master.
In fewer than five exchanges, the Red General was again sent flying, but because Tianti blocked the Holy Sovereign of Lingxu's fist, she landed, rolled, and immediately sprang up.
Fortunately, she moved quickly, for two green spikes erupted from the ground. Had she risen half a breath later, she would have been pierced through by those spikes.
The Holy Sovereign of Lingxu grew increasingly sinister, while her situation grew increasingly dire.
At this moment, several green shadows were active on the battlefield—all are the true form and incarnations of the Holy Sovereign of Lingxu.
After a prolonged battle, only a dozen or so of the eight hundred celestial demon divine puppets remain, yet the Holy Sovereign of Lingxu still appears spirited and vigorous, showing no signs of exhaustion.
The Red General knows that, in fact, his vital energy is also being rapidly and fiercely consumed, but his foundation is truly profound, sufficient
to utterly exhaust the Red General to death.
Even with divine puppets sharing the pressure, the Red General must still fight alone against the two major incarnations.
When she again thrust her spear through the chest of an incarnation, a blue insect the length of a fingertip quietly emerged from a ground crack behind her and shot straight toward her back.
The southern gate square has not yet been fully occupied by the vital force, but weeds have already grown thick. This insect is also one of the incarnations of the Holy Sovereign of Lingxu, but when moving, it emits not a trace of killing intent—even if the Red General extends her divine sense, she cannot detect its presence.
The great shaman on the city gate cried out in alarm: "Watch your back!"
The Red General was in the thick of battle, only managing to turn half her body and raise her arm to block—she felt a sharp pain from her left arm, and this insect actually pierced straight through her arm armor, embedding its mouth needle into her arm!
The Red General rolled with the momentum, crushing the creature into the ground.
But she was still stung—her left arm swelled with pain, as if someone were inflating her blood vessels into balloons, while her fingertips turned the color of dead ash.
This pain could still be transmitted, spreading rapidly from the forearm to the shoulder.
Remembering the lessons of Luo Letian and the other divine puppets, the Red General did not hesitate, drew his sword with a backhand, and severed his own left arm!
