Chapter 565: Shuttle through the battlefield

"Nine Heavens Fire Dragon Art..." Seeing his wolf pack annihilated by the fire dragons, Gu Ya couldn't help but feel a slight shock. "Unlike Ning Zhuo's strength seems even greater than described in the intelligence reports?"

Three fire dragons circling oneself, whipping up a sea of fire, scorching and destroying surrounding living beings while maintaining one's own stability—this requires powerful and precise control.

After all, this is an offensive spell; one slip in control, and it would instead harm oneself.

But judging by this counterattack from Unlike Ning Zhuo, his control is precise and effortless, achieving defense through offense.

Defense through offense!

Those who frequently practice spells know that achieving this is actually not easy at all.

"Didn't the intelligence say Unlike Ning Zhuo is only sixteen or seventeen? At such an age, and primarily practicing mechanism arts, how does he have time to diligently practice spells?"

It was precisely this miscalculation that led Gu Ya to actively "sacrifice" a batch of his wolf pack forces.

Just as he hesitated whether to dispatch another batch of mountain wolves to deal with Unlike Ning Zhuo, the pressure on the front line surged, and he immediately cast the thought of dealing with Unlike Ning Zhuo to the back of his mind, beginning to command the main force with all his might.

Awoo!

The three fire dragons soared freely, one leading the way in front, and the

other two accompanying him on the left and right.

The fire dragons were magnificent, their flames intense, yet they always maintained a certain distance from Unlike Ning Zhuo himself.

Five Viscera Temple Spirit Art—Fire Element Heart Temple!

Many of Unlike Ning Zhuo's spiritual senses resided within the Heart Temple, where the idol inside was in his own likeness. By utilizing the heart to control the fire element, every fire element spell he cast was elevated to the level of precise control.

Benefiting from the three fire dragons opening up space on the battlefield for him, the latter was able to continuously deploy mechanism puppets and reorganize his military formation.

Unlike Ning Zhuo, while controlling the three fire dragons, commanded his mechanism army, shuttling through the battlefield.

If he had held his ground in one corner, he might have held a local advantage, but by crossing the battlefield, he encountered all kinds of formidable enemies.

The fire dragons persisted in the middle of the battlefield for a short while, but their power grew smaller and smaller, eventually being completely exhausted.

Art of War—Bluffing!

Mu Lan drew her bow and notched an arrow again, aiming at the Blood Shadow Cave Master.

Blood Shadow Cave Master:?!

In terror, he retreated in a panic, driving a streak of blood light, shuttling through the sky above the battlefield.

Northern Underworld Extreme Freezing Light!

Death Parting Life Leaving Fire!

Dozens of icy mysterious lights, along with fatal fire lines, shot together toward the

Blood Shadow Cave Master.

Although the city wall defense line of the two kingdoms' front-line camp had a huge gap, most of the heavy military equipment remained, still possessing powerful offensive capabilities.

Although the Blood Shadow Cave Master could contend with them, he did not want to waste his Nascent Soul power on resisting military equipment.

The intensity of the battle made him feel increasingly strained; he had to save as much as possible.

Therefore, he landed on the ground without hesitation.

The military equipment then stopped bothering him.

This was because there were many of his own people on the ground, and indiscriminate concentrated fire would easily cause friendly fire.

Once friendly fire occurred, it would easily cause his own army's morale to waver and plummet, thereby leading to a significant reduction in his side's combat power.

Conversely, the Blood Shadow Cave Master had no such scruples.

After landing, he immediately suffered strikes from all directions.

With a cold snort, he flung hundreds of blood beads in all directions.

Bang, bang, bang...

The blood beads exploded one after another, blowing the surrounding cultivators into miserable deaths or severe injuries.

The battlefield surrounding the Blood Shadow Cave Master was suddenly cleared.

The Blood Shadow Cave Master opened his arms and tilted his head back, taking a deep breath.

The next moment, a large amount of blood qi rolled out from the corpses of cultivators or wounds all over the ground, eventually merging into the Blood Shadow Cave Master's body.

The blood qi around the Blood Shadow Cave Master's body became dense once again.

Regardless of friend or foe, those who reacted began to curse loudly and launched concentrated fire at the Blood Shadow Cave Master.

The Blood Shadow Cave Master snorted coldly, pointed a finger, and a streak of blood light erupted from his fingertip, piercing through several barbarian cultivators who had charged to the front.

He himself then flew into the air and killed his way back into the city walls.

The streak of blood light he unleashed pierced all the way, eventually shooting diagonally into the rear of Unlike Ning Zhuo's mechanism army.

In just an instant, it shot and killed all the mechanism puppets in its path, and the blood poison eroded and harmed many nearby mechanism puppets as well.

Unlike Ning Zhuo made a prompt decision and abandoned all the puppets eroded by the blood poison.

"Blood Shadow Cave Master!" Sun Lingtong whispered in the dragon-head cabin, revealing a look of hatred.

He had not forgotten that when he was scouting the Six Caves Sect's main gate earlier, he had suffered a strike from the Blood Shadow Cave Master.

Unlike Ning Zhuo revealed a grave expression and realized again: "The white-hot battlefield and the omnipresent pressure of death make all cultivators fight with all their might. Gu Ya is like this, and so is the Blood Shadow Cave Master!"

"Fortunately, I am in the middle of the battlefield, not in the core area."

Recently, Unlike Ning Zhuo had been diligently practicing with the help of the Fetal Breath Spirit Boat, and his physical foundation had been constantly skyrocketing, allowing him to support more blessings from the Brave Man's Return Art.

But judging from the previous few battles, Unlike Ning Zhuo's combat power ceiling had always been at the Jin Dan level.

The core war zone was clearly a meat grinder for Nascent Soul cultivators; Unlike Ning Zhuo reckoned there was no need to enter and participate in the battle, only to ask for trouble.

Unlike Ning Zhuo led the mechanism puppets and continued to approach Lin You.

Mo Yechen rode his spirit pet, the myna, flying above the battlefield.

Along with the fierce battle, his opponent was no longer Li Jiuqu, but the demon cultivator Bai Ling.

Bai Ling's true form was a white crane, also an avian in the sky, so his flying skills went without saying.

The two fought while resisting countless strikes from the ground.

The ground battlefield gathered the most soldiers, while this sky battlefield belonged only to the strong.

This was because on the ground, the intensity of the battle was not as high as in the sky battlefield, as spells easily caused friendly fire.

But in the sky, spells could easily be concentrated.

One of the dilemmas faced by cultivators ascending to high altitudes was that the enemy would look up and unleash a long-range spell attack, which was very convenient.

Naturally, only the strong among the cultivators could withstand such concentrated fire.

And the strong who could occupy the high altitude would inevitably cause powerful suppression on the enemies on the ground.

Therefore, when the two armies clashed, they had been fighting for the ownership of the sky battlefield since the beginning of the melee.

Divine Ability—Crane Cry in the Nine Marshes!

Bai Ling suddenly stopped in mid-air and let out a long cry toward the sky. The surging sound waves spread rapidly in all directions; Mo Yechen retreated, while the other soldiers all swayed, and a large number of cultivators died miserably in the midst of it.

And in the latter part of the sound waves, countless cultivators suffered qi deviation.

Retreat!

Unlike Ning Zhuo retreated in a hurry, abandoning most of the mechanism puppets.

The divine ability ravaged his divine sea, making his face turn pale.

Prairie Fire Healing Divine Flame!

He pinched his finger seals and ignited a fire in his divine sea.

Because of Bai Ling's divine ability, the various harmful thoughts created in Unlike Ning Zhuo's divine sea all vanished under the scorching of the flames.

In contrast, Unlike Ning Zhuo's own thoughts were properly preserved.

Unlike Ning Zhuo spat out a mouthful of turbid air and stabilized his position again.

If it were before the battle of the Heaven and Earth Twin Ghosts, it would have been very troublesome for Unlike Ning Zhuo to deal with the aftermath of Bai Ling's divine ability. After all, the My Buddha Heart Demon Seal would only be triggered and erupt at a critical moment.

But now, Unlike Ning Zhuo could handle such trouble relying solely on his own means.

Unlike Ning Zhuo reached into his storage bag, and with a wave of his arm, he replenished the lineup of his mechanism army.

He probed his divine sense into the bottom of the storage bag and found that half of his reserves had been consumed.

This level of loss was unprecedented.

As his divine sense spread to the surroundings again, Unlike Ning Zhuo helplessly discovered that his active charge had instead taken him further and further away from Lin You.

Leading the army in a charge, the omnipresent pressure and sudden strikes all caused Unlike Ning Zhuo and his mechanism army to constantly change their forward route while evading.

The result was almost like drifting with the tide; the distance to the target had not shortened but had instead lengthened.

However, Unlike Ning Zhuo's fighting spirit was strong, his mind was determined, and taking a deep breath, he launched his charge again.

Three-Layer Departing Fire Cover!

Thick Earth Armor, Rock Plate!

Fire element and earth element defensive spells blessed himself, and the Brave Man's Return Art continuously caused Unlike Ning Zhuo's combat power to rise.

Unlike Ning Zhuo could clearly feel that his pressure was rapidly decreasing!

Wood Element—Root Vine Entanglement.

Vines drilled out from the ground, strangling a dozen barbarian cultivators on the spot.

Earth Element—Earth Python!

A yellowish-brown giant python condensed from earth and stone, as thick as the trunk of an ancient tree, heavy yet agile, swept across the battlefield, sweeping away several pig demons and opening a path for Unlike Ning Zhuo.

Fire Element—Nine Heavens Fire Dragon Art!

The three fire dragons reappeared, roaring and igniting a region of fire, turning the siege on Unlike Ning Zhuo into nothingness and allowing Unlike Ning Zhuo to turn danger into safety.

"I am still getting stronger!" Unlike Ning Zhuo felt invigorated.

The power of the current Nine Heavens Fire Dragon Art was clearly more powerful than before.

The fire dragons led the way, and the cultivators who couldn't dodge in time let out miserable screams and were buried in the sea of fire.

Unlike Ning Zhuo's performance in crossing the battlefield became increasingly eye-catching, finally attracting attention.

Three Jin Dan enemy cultivators blocked his path, and they unleashed a combined spell, forming a large area of blade light that illuminated the world.

The mechanism puppets were cut into countless fragments in the blade light.

Unlike Ning Zhuo's mechanism army was more than half destroyed in an instant!

Unlike Ning Zhuo snorted coldly, stomped his foot, and clapped his hands in front of his chest.

Wood Element—Tree World Advent!

Towering ancient trees rose from the ground, forming a large forest. The battlefield surrounding Unlike Ning Zhuo was completely transformed beyond recognition within a few breaths.

The ancient trees formed a natural barrier, resisting the sharp blade light, and were then chopped into countless wooden blocks in the blade light.

The blade light consumed too much, and its power was greatly reduced.

Unlike Ning Zhuo took advantage of the breathing space to replenish his mechanism puppets and led his army to kill his way out!

Various five-element spells were unleashed, covering the three Jin Dan enemy cultivators.

The three Jin Dan cultivators hurriedly unleashed defensive spells, struggling to resist, looking disheveled.

Just as they were about to counterattack, Unlike Ning Zhuo opened his mouth and spat.

Gold Element Spell—Mysterious Gold Slash!

A streak of golden lightning, sharp and unstoppable, directly pierced through one Jin Dan enemy cultivator, leaving him no time to wail before he died on the spot.

The remaining two Jin Dan cultivators were stunned on the spot.

Unlike Ning Zhuo repeated his old trick, spitting out two more streaks of golden lightning, directly shooting and killing them.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Unlike Ning Zhuo breathed heavily; his magic power consumption was too high, reaching the warning line.

He hurriedly swallowed elixirs and pulled his magic power reserve line back up.

Gold element spells like the Mysterious Gold Slash were offensive arts he focused on practicing after mastering the Gold Element Lung Temple.

Their power was strong, but the consumption also became huge.

Of course, when Unlike Ning Zhuo released this spell, he was also focusing his divine sense on the Gold Element Lung Temple.

With the two superimposed, the offensive power was further increased, killing three Jin Dan enemy cultivators in a row.

Seeing his power, a portion of the surrounding enemy cultivators began to actively evade.

Unlike Ning Zhuo successfully established his prestige and immediately felt that the resistance in front had dissipated by more than half.

He drove straight in, rapidly shortening the distance between himself and Lin You.

"Stop right there!" An eagle-headed demon cultivator shrieked sharply, actively intercepting Unlike Ning Zhuo.

It was Chen Lingfeng!

He came from the Wind Pillar Peak, and his talent was so excellent that he was favored by the Ginseng Beard Long Wang and cultivated, serving as Lord Long's right-hand man.

Wind Element—Hundred Blade Storm!

The next moment, Chen Lingfeng pushed his palms, and his magic power surged out, turning into hundreds of wind blades, circling and dancing, shooting toward Unlike Ning Zhuo.

Unlike Ning Zhuo unleashed spells to protect himself.

But the mechanism army beside him suffered heavy losses, with less than one in ten remaining.

Chen Lingfeng's combat power was extraordinary, an existence at the peak of Jin Dan.

With just this one strike, he almost wiped out the entire mechanism army.

Art of War—Brave Man's Return Art.

Unlike Ning Zhuo's combat power rose again.

Mechanism—Brother Ning Zhong Armor Blood Ape · Dasheng.

Mechanism—Ghost Shadow Blade · Night Tiger.

Unlike Ning Zhuo's expression was grave; he knew Chen Lingfeng's combat power was astonishing. It was fine to confront him alone, but to break through his obstruction, he had to have strong reinforcements.

Of course, he had strong reinforcements!

Therefore, he directly released the two fierce generals in his hands.

One was Yuan Dasheng, nearly two zhang tall, composed of precious materials like Red Sun Copper, Ten Thousand Strike Mysterious Iron, and Vajra Stone, focusing on defense. The other was Meng Yehu, entirely dark, inlaid with silver-white light strips, eight feet tall, with a tiger head and human body, sinister and domineering.

The wind blades attacked again.

Yuan Dasheng took a step across, like a city wall, protecting Unlike Ning Zhuo tightly.

Yuan Dasheng raised his arms in front of his face and half-squatted on the ground: "My lord, this subordinate will protect you."

"Hmm." Unlike Ning Zhuo nodded slightly, then glanced sideways at Meng Yehu on the other side, calling out softly, "Go."

Meng Yehu: "Yes, Father God."

He responded respectfully, activated a talisman, hid his figure, and quietly killed his way toward Chen Lingfeng.

Chen Lingfeng's face was solemn, his eyes narrowed, his ears pricked up, and his divine sense mobilized, immediately unleashing a spell.

Wind Element—Listening to the Wind to Distinguish Position!

From the thousands of noisy sounds, he accurately captured Meng Yehu's footsteps.

Several wind blades immediately turned into spells, forcing Meng Yehu to parry and forcing him to reveal his figure.

Meng Yehu's sneak attack failed, and his attack was blocked, but that didn't mean Unlike Ning Zhuo was helpless.

Relying on the two major Jin Dan-level mechanisms to stabilize his position, he replenished his mechanism puppets while unleashing spells for long-range attacks.

Unlike Ning Zhuo's current combat power had not reached the peak of Jin Dan, but it was enough to pose a threat to Chen Lingfeng.

Chen Lingfeng had to flap his great wind and retreat from his original position, unwilling to hard-resist the spell bombardment.

The two sides clashed for several rounds, creating a battle group that made other cultivators on both sides dare not approach, actively widening the distance.

After several exchanges of offense and defense, Unlike Ning Zhuo and Chen Lingfeng were both panting.

"As expected of one of the top Jin Dan levels in the Thousand Peaks Forest Allied Forces!" Unlike Ning Zhuo sighed.

Chen Lingfeng was somewhat shocked: "A mere Foundation Establishment cultivator can fight me to a draw. Is this the top genius of the human race..."

"I am also a genius among the demon race!"

Chen Lingfeng's competitive spirit was ignited.

Since he was a child, he had been favored by the Ginseng Beard Long Wang for his talent and had always possessed excellent aptitude. This was one of the sources of his pride.

Talent—Frenzied Wind Bone!

A frenzied wind was unleashed from his bones, blowing through all 43,877 pores of his body, making his hair messy and his eyes slightly unfocused. ===== CHAPTER 566 =====
