Chapter 452: The Return of the Three Ninth-Tier Outside the Realm

When time reached the thirtieth day after the war began.

Although the surging Beast Tide showed no signs of diminishing.

On another battlefield, the casualties among the Out-of-Boundary Cultivators had already exceeded half.

Although the Wenxian City side also suffered losses, the number of casualties was far lower than that of the Out-of-Boundary Cultivators.

Relying on their numerical advantage, they had already begun to suppress the Out-of-Boundary Cultivators.

The third battlefield.

Although the Four Deputy City Lords had initially gained a slight upper hand due to the repair of the City Protection Array.

But as the battle continued.

The dragon beasts' endurance, which far exceeded that of humans, gradually began to show its effect, and they remained as vigorous as ever even now.

Meanwhile, the Four Deputy City Lords were already exhausted.

If not for the constant support of Soul-Returning Pills, their Spiritual Power would likely have been depleted long ago.

"Hold on!"

"As long as we can hold out until those Out-of-Boundary Cultivators are routed, we have a chance to win!"

While engaging the dragon beasts, the four of them had been keeping an eye on the other two battlefields.

Naturally, they saw the process of the Wenxian City cultivators going from the verge of defeat to a desperate counterattack, suppressing the Out-of-Boundary Cultivators.

They were not clear on the details.

They only knew.

If things continued this way, this battle would surely be won.

Once the Out-of-Boundary Cultivators were scattered.

The cultivators fighting them could provide support, help them defeat the dragon beasts, and then join forces to defend the line against the Beast Tide and crush it!

By then.

Even if those three Ninth-Order Will Stage cultivators descended again.

They would be unable to turn the tide!

Just as the four were feeling encouraged by seeing the dawn of victory.

In the distance.

Three powerful auras suddenly appeared.

Sensing these three auras, the expressions of the four Deputy City Lords changed simultaneously.

This is...

Yaoguang Xianzi, Xiaoyue Daoren, and that newly appeared, even more powerful Ninth-rank Will Cultivator!

Their injuries have already healed!!!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

While the expressions of the four Deputy City Lords were shifting.

Three figures arrived in an instant.

Appearing high in the sky.

Xiaoyue Daoren looked at the battle below, revealing a look of surprise.

"Eh? The Wenxian City cultivators have not only not been routed, but have instead gained the upper hand!"

"Their overall strength seems to have suddenly increased by a notch!" Yaoguang Xianzi's face remained a blur, and her melodious voice drifted down slowly.

"It is the Wenxian City Protective Array."

After the two finished speaking, the woman with long ice-crystal hair, who had been silently observing the surroundings, suddenly cast her gaze toward the direction of Wenxian City.

Upon hearing this, Yaoguang Xianzi and Xiaoyue Daoren immediately looked toward Wenxian City.

Then, they simultaneously revealed looks of shock.

This Wenxian City Protective Array, which had been dilapidated for three hundred years, had actually been repaired!

"How is this possible? The Wenxian City Protective Array is extremely unique; wasn't it said that no one could repair it?" Xiaoyue Daoren's expression darkened.

"Nothing in this world is absolute. Since the array-path genius who created this formation could appear in Wenxian City back then, it is possible for someone capable of repairing it to be born as well." Yaoguang Xianzi shook her head.

Hearing this, Xiaoyue Daoren's expression turned grave, "You mean to say that another brilliant and talented Array Master has appeared within Wenxian City?"

Yaoguang Xianzi nodded, "Only then could the Wenxian City Protective Array be repaired."

Xiaoyue Zhenren's expression immediately grew heavy, "When this passage was first opened, our sects were tricked by that array-path prodigy who appeared out of nowhere because we underestimated the opponent."

"The formations left behind by them remain our greatest obstacle to conquering Wenxian City to this day."

"Today, this Wenxian City must be conquered."

"With that array-path prodigy present, if we give this Wenxian City a chance to catch its breath, it will likely be much harder to take it down in the future."

Yaoguang Xianzi nodded and sighed, "It is fortunate that Linglong has already been crippled; otherwise, if her cultivation were still intact, with the help of this complete Protective Array, I don't know to what extent her strength would have soared."

"It is merely a matter of fate. Today, Heaven's will is on our side; this Wenxian City will surely fall." Xiaoyue Daoren looked down, a sharp glint flashing across his face.

The woman with long ice-crystal hair remained silent, looking down at the scene below with indifference.

Just as the three were shaken by the completeness of the Protective Array.

On the battlefield.

Everyone had already seen these three figures.

The Out-of-Boundary Cultivators all revealed looks of excitement.

While the expressions of the Wenxian City cultivators were the exact opposite.

All could not help but feel their hearts sink.

The City Lord is not here.

The only ones capable of blocking a Ninth-Order Will Stage Cultivator are the Four Deputy City Lords.

And at this moment.

It is already the limit for the Four Deputy City Lords to join forces and hold back the dragon beast.

Once these three join the battlefield on the dragon beast's side.

The Four Deputy City Lords will surely suffer a swift defeat.

At that time.

The dragon beast will be freed.

Regardless of which of the two battlefields—the Beast Tide or the Outside the Realm cultivators—the four Ninth-Order Will Stage Cultivators join.

They will completely turn the tide of battle.

Turning the advantage they have just established into a rout in an instant.

Boom!

The dragon beast's massive tail swept across like a whip, shattering the four's full-strength strike.

The four figures retreated dozens of zhang simultaneously, looking at the dragon beast, then toward the three figures high in the sky.

A flash of despair crossed their eyes.

"We're in trouble now!"

The refined middle-aged man gave a bitter smile, "The City Lord is burning Spiritual Power and has given everything; now that these three have returned at this critical juncture, no one can stop them, this battle..."

Having said this, he let out a long sigh.

"Damn it!" Beside the refined middle-aged man, the black-armored middle-aged man clenched his fists fiercely, "We were so close; if we had just ten more days, this battle would be won!"

"Man proposes, God disposes; when the war first began, we didn't even expect to hold out until now, did we?" the third person smiled.

After the third person's voice fell, a young man holding a long spear and wearing silver armor let out a long breath, his gaze resolute as he said, "Let's fight; the City Lord has already set an example for us, and as Deputy City Lords, we cannot fall behind."

Having said this, violent fluctuations of Spiritual Power erupted from his body instantly.

Burning Spiritual Power?

Seeing this, the other three were silent for a moment.

Then they laughed.

On the three of them, their Spiritual Power also suddenly became violent, just like the silver-armored youth.

"Heh, learning from Linglong to burn Spiritual Power?"

"Pity, you are far inferior to her."

Seeing the four's actions, Xiaoyue Daoren sneered high in the sky and charged directly toward the silver-armored youth.

Following him, Yaoguang also charged toward one of them.

The woman with long ice-crystal hair did not directly launch an attack on the four, but instead flashed her figure and landed between the two horns on the dragon beast's head.

Seeing this scene.

The refined middle-aged man and the black-armored middle-aged man, who were preparing to charge toward the dragon beast and the ice-crystal-haired woman, were shocked.

This is a powerful Ninth-Order Will Stage dragon beast.

Such a beast of noble bloodline is generally incomparably arrogant; to think it would actually be willing to let a human step on its head!

Just as the two revealed looks of astonishment.

The ice-crystal-haired woman leaned down, her palm pressing against the dragon beast's head.

The dragon beast suddenly transformed into a vast expanse of Cold Mist, enveloping the ice-crystal-haired woman.

The next moment.

The Cold Mist covering a large area of the sky contracted sharply, transforming into a suit of crystalline, flawless jade-white armor that draped over the ice-crystal-haired woman.

The woman's aura surged instantly!

"This is a Beast Taming Technique!"

"This woman is a member of the Beast Taming Sect from Outside the Realm!"

"That Ninth-tier dragon beast... is actually her life-bound Spirit Beast!"
