Chapter 424: Suppression, Carnage!

Ha!

Only seeing Zhuque's posture light and graceful, like a drifting cloud, the long bow in his hand curved like a crescent moon, the bowstring taut, revealing a sharp aura.

Whoosh—

With a soft sound, Zhuque loosened the bowstring, a crimson arrow shot out like a meteor, tearing through the horizon.

"Ding! Zhuque's skill Southern Bright Five Phoenix effect triggers again, martial power +5.

Zhuque's current martial power rose to 138!

This arrow differed from the previous ones, its whole body wrapped in a denser crimson aura, as if carrying Zhuque's anger and resolve, shooting straight at the Taiping Sect's archers.

The Taiping Sect's archers felt the immense pressure from this crimson arrow.

The arrow tore through the air, its speed astonishing.

They hurriedly raised their bows to respond, trying to shoot down the arrow.

However, in Zhuque's eyes, their movements appeared slow and clumsy.

Just then, Zhuque loosened the bowstring again, several crimson arrows followed closely, their speed even faster, like streaks of lightning tearing the sky.

Behind this arrow followed several crimson arrows, which overtook the leading one and flew toward the arrows shot by the Taiping Sect commanders opposite.

Only hearing a few 'whoosh' sounds, the Taiping Sect's arrows were knocked down one after another.

But the leading arrow suddenly burst forth with a stronger crimson aura, forming a phantom of Zhuque, which pounced with thunderous speed upon one of the Taiping Sect's archers.

That archer stared wide-eyed in terror, feeling a strong breath of death rush over him.

He wanted to dodge, but it was already too late, his body seeming to be frozen, unable to move.

"Pfft—"

Zhuque's phantom instantly pierced his body, blood spattering; the archer, as if struck by a huge hammer, fell backward and died on the spot.

The other martial officers of the Taiping Sect, seeing this, were terrified and retreated, fearing they would become Zhuque's next target.

On the battlefield, cries of alarm and angry roars suddenly rose.

Zhuque, meanwhile, coldly gazed at the fallen Taiping Sect archer, his long bow bending again, ready to shoot the next arrow.

In the Taiping Sect's camp, the remaining archers wore solemn expressions; Zhuque's move completely broke the battlefield's balance.

At this moment, Yun Huai-zhi also seized the chance to launch a fierce offensive.

His figure moved like lightning, his twin spears dancing like two silver dragons, each strike precise and fierce.

Under the boost of the Moon God Dharma Aspect, his figure became even more elusive, hard to grasp.

The four members of Armor Squad Two, seeing this, also showed no weakness, they re-formed their formation and engaged Yun Huai-zhi in fierce combat.

Bei Kai's meteor spear danced like the wind, each swing bringing strong air undulations; Fang Zhong wielded the splitting earth blade, each strike making the ground tremble.

Meanwhile, Dian Nan, who had originally broken formation, held a blazing flame bow and continuously shot crimson arrows, trying to disrupt Yun Huai-zhi's rhythm.

Wen Dong and Ze Xi, the last two, were responsible for support and defense, their wind hawk sword and thunder shock axe moving in an impenetrable manner, making it hard for Yun Huai-zhi to break through.

However, in this fierce battle, Yun Huai-zhi gradually revealed his great strength.

Although he had not yet reached the peak level of Basic Martial 108 Top War God, his excellent skills were no pretense.

Moreover, as time passed, the five members of Armor Squad Two were ultimately only at the Divine General level.

In terms of aura endurance and stamina, they could not compare to Yun Huai-zhi on this battlefield.

At this time, Yun Huai-zhi not only held the advantage in offense, but also was flawless in defense.

Each attack from Armor Squad Two was skillfully neutralized by him, and his counterattacks left the few members of Armor Squad Two, whose aura was already half-depleted, gradually exhausted in responding.

Just as Yun Huai-zhi was fiercely clashing with the Five Elements Armor, Zhuque's arrows repeatedly took lives.

Within the Taiping Sect's great army, the Mysterious Heaven Guard, which had been advancing along the trajectory of the formation 'Supreme Ultimate Wind Thunder Formation,' also gradually approached the battlefield's core area.

They held halberds engraved with cloud patterns, the spear tips cast with Eight Trigrams designs; every detail exuded a strong Daoist aura.

With a command from the Mysterious Penetration Daoist, the Mysterious Heaven Guard began to activate the 'Supreme Ultimate Wind Thunder Formation.'

This formation takes the Supreme Ultimate Diagram as its basis, integrates the Eight Trigrams principle, changes endlessly, and combines offense and defense.

The Mysterious Heaven Guard took the 'Supreme Ultimate Wind Thunder Formation' as the vanguard, moving along the trajectory of the yin-yang fish, gathering and dispersing unpredictably, ever-changing, like an invisible storm sweeping toward the heavy infantry corps behind the Five Elements Armor and the like—the Halberdiers, and also the ordinary Cangzhou Army.

As the formation operated, a mysterious power gradually enveloped the whole battlefield, as if to devour everything within.

"Heaven and earth positioned, marshes and vapors communicate, wind and rain interact, water and fire do not oppose each other."

The Mysterious Penetration Daoist chanted softly, his fingers waving as if controlling the power between heaven and earth.

Following his command, the Mysterious Heaven Guard acted as one, swiftly adjusting positions to exert the 'Supreme Ultimate Wind Thunder Formation' to its utmost.

At this moment, the Mysterious Heaven Guard seemed to unite with heaven and earth; each of their attacks contained the power of heaven and earth.

As the halberds were waved, the sound of wind and thunder was deafening, as if to tear the entire battlefield apart.

Their armor gleamed with a cold light in the sunlight, like streaks of lightning cutting across the sky.

The Mysterious Heaven Guard moved like chess pieces flexibly across the battlefield; the Supreme Ultimate Wind Thunder Formation operated smoothly, sometimes sweeping like a whirlwind, sometimes striking like thunder.

The Halberdiers and the ordinary Cangzhou Army, facing this sudden attack, were momentarily at a loss.

They tried to organize an effective defense, but under the wondrous changes of the 'Supreme Ultimate Wind Thunder Formation,' their defensive line was quickly torn apart.

The Mysterious Heaven Guard's halberds were like the scythe of the grim reaper, each swing taking a life.

"Ah—"

A halberdier cried out miserably and fell into a pool of blood.

His chest was pierced by the Mysterious Heaven Guard's halberd, blood gushed out, staining the whole battlefield red.

"Hold fast! Hold fast!"

Several colonels ahead of the halberdiers roared, trying to steady the troops' morale.

Meanwhile, the Mysterious Heaven Guard's attack was as violent as a sudden storm, making it impossible to resist.

Moreover, the ordinary Cangzhou Army beside the halberdiers was a horrifying sight; under the Mysterious Heaven Guard's attack, they were like lambs awaiting slaughter, helpless and desperate.

Their weapons left faint marks on the Profound Heaven Guard's armor, but could not pierce the defense at all.

And each swing of the Profound Heaven Guard's long halberd would take several lives.

The battlefield was filled with a heavy stench of blood and gunpowder, as if it would overwhelm one's sense of smell.

At this moment, the Profound Heaven Guard were like killing gods descended into the world, their eyes full of coldness and killing intent.

Under their attack, the halberdiers and ordinary Cangzhou troops fell like wheat waves, unable to mount any effective counterattack.
