Chapter 322: Martial Saint Falls!

However, just as Ye Bai was observing the Martial Saints of the Great Heaven Kingdom.

And was already contemplating which one he should choose as an opponent if a fight were to break out later.

At the same time, the gates of Luo City were flung wide open.

A great many Seventh Grade Martial Kings, leading a massive number of Martial Artists, charged out and engaged in battle with those Shikigami that lacked the ability to fly.

Something that caught all the Saints of Great Xia by surprise suddenly occurred...

"Pfft!"

It was seen that on the side of the Mecha Saint, after only fighting for a few minutes, that figure encased in a mecha—who had initially forced the five Eight-Rank Middle Stage Shikigami opposing him to retreat repeatedly—suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood!

Just a moment ago, one of the Shikigami had luckily managed to land a hit on him.

It was clearly only a single successful attack, and the one attacking him was merely an Eight-Rank Middle Stage Shikigami.

Yet it instantly caused the Mecha Saint to be wounded!

"Damn it!"

Following this, although he knocked that Shikigami away with another strike.

However, anyone could see that the Mecha Saint's attacks were no longer as sharp! The aura around his entire body had actually weakened by a notch!

The Saints of Great Xia did not know the characteristics of the Shikigami, but if Adam could help explain at this moment, he would certainly tell the Saints of Great Xia that it was because the Mecha Saint's combat style was melee, and thus he was countered by the Shikigami!

And the injury of the Mecha Saint seemed to trigger a chain reaction...

"Boom!"

A short time later, an Eight-Rank Middle Stage Martial Saint of the Great Heaven Kingdom was struck by his opposing Shikigami and sent flying backward!

Although he returned to the battlefield shortly after and began fighting his opponent again.

Yet, just the same, his aura was a notch weaker!

"Ah!"

Next, the Wolf Saint—whom Zhu Rong had specifically warned Ye Bai about as being outstanding among those at the Eight-Rank Initial Stage—

Was slashed on the body by one of his opposing Shikigami at this moment!

In just an instant, a hideous wound appeared on his chest!

Crucially, near the wound, Immortal Qi could be seen surging; that was the Wolf Saint's Immortal Golden Body triggering its automatic repair mechanism.

However, the wound could not heal!

At the same time.

The Giant Saint was also struck by a blade...

His stone-like skin was likewise unable to heal!

There were many other Martial Saints of the Great Heaven Kingdom who were struck by attacks.

Without exception, their auras faded by a large margin...

By comparison, in those Seventh Grade battles, the Great Heaven Kingdom side still held an absolute advantage; not a single Seventh Grade Martial King had been injured yet!

"This is?!"

Seeing this, how could the Saints of Great Xia fail to guess the ability of the Shikigami?

This species, birthed from a Secret Technique obtained from the Three Great Alien Races, could counter the Immortal Golden Body of Eight-Rank Martial Saints!

As long as an attack landed once, it would cause the operation of the Immortal Golden Body to malfunction!

If one were injured, the situation would be even worse!

"Haha, Adam, didn't expect this, did you?"

"Even with just these current Shikigami, my Great Sun Kingdom will still not be defeated! You wanting to take this opportunity to defeat this Emperor is nothing but wishful thinking!"

Dairi Huang let out another loud laugh at this moment.

"Buchuan Yifu!!" Adam gave a response for the first time.

High above, his pair of angry eyes suddenly cast down, staring fixedly at Buchuan Yifu.

Yet he had no intention of rushing down to kill Buchuan Yifu!

Jiansheng and Wu Zhangsheng also finally noticed at this moment that one of Adam's hands was actually trembling slightly...

They realized that Adam had long since been injured.

"The Great Heaven Kingdom may be finished..."

"There is no need for my Great Xia to intervene at all; they will be annihilated at the hands of the Great Sun Remnant!"

Zhu Rong, having learned of Adam's condition from Jiansheng and Wu Zhangsheng,

Said this at this moment!

Although the Great Heaven Kingdom currently held the advantage, the Shikigami countered the Immortal Golden Body too effectively!

Adam's strength was even clearly impaired.

As time continued to pass, the fate awaiting the Great Heaven Kingdom was destined to be annihilation!

Even if the Saints of Great Xia watched the show quietly for over ten minutes.

"Go to hell!"

The Magic Saint suddenly let out an angry roar.

Because his Martial Arts Talent and combat style were always long-range, he was one of the few Martial Saints who did not fear the Shikigami, and at this moment, he successfully killed one of the few Shikigami opposing him!

It was not just the Magic Saint.

Among the other Martial Saints of the Great Heaven Kingdom, there were also quite a few who achieved the feat of killing their opposing enemies.

"Boom!"

Even the Spider Saint, whom Ye Bai had noticed early on and whom Zhu Rong had clearly evaluated as being in the weakest tier of Martial Saints,

Was at this moment using their unique Heaven-Ensnaring Net Domain to keep two opposing Eight-Rank Initial Stage Shikigami tightly trapped!

Winning two against one!

The saints of Great Xia deduced from this that the greatest strength of the Shikigami is their ability to restrain the Immortal Golden Body, as well as that suit of armor which rivals the strength of a Universe Grade Defense Battle Soldier.

They do not possess the super-long endurance and difficulty to kill that normal Martial Saints have due to the endless supply of Immortal Qi.

At this moment, at first glance, the advantage of the Great Heaven Kingdom has returned to how it was at the beginning, and the Great Sun Remnant is far from having a chance to win.

However, do not forget.

The Great Sun Remnant had troops split off to the other two remaining cities...

Another dozen minutes passed.

"Swish, swish!"

It could be clearly seen that suddenly, over a hundred Shikigami figures flew in from the horizon!

In the distance, one could even hear bursts of rumbling sounds; those were Seventh Grade Shikigami, charging and killing their way over!

The reinforcements of the Great Sun Remnant had arrived...

Just with this batch of reinforcements arriving on the scene.

The losing momentum of the Great Sun Remnant's Shikigami was immediately stabilized!

Moreover, this was only the first batch!

"Swish, swish!" Not long after, the second batch of Shikigami arrived!

The total number of Shikigami had nearly doubled at this moment!!

"Boom, boom!"

The battle between the Great Heaven Kingdom and the Great Sun Remnant continued.

Yet it was clearly visible that at this time, the Great Heaven Kingdom's advantage had vanished completely!

"Jie jie, Adam, people of the Great Heaven Kingdom, what do you have to fight me, the Great Sun?

To tell you the truth, the other two cities have already been slaughtered, and new Shikigami are currently being gestated!"

"What awaits you will ultimately be defeat!!"

Dairi Huang even let out another ferocious laugh at this moment!

Indicating that the Great Sun side's strength had not yet reached its peak!

There is no need to doubt that the Great Heaven Kingdom is indeed going to lose this battle...

And it was indeed so.

Only a few minutes passed.

Over at Wolf Saint's side.

This Eighth Grade Initial Stage peak Martial Saint had already been injured previously.

Being able to continue suppressing the enemy was because his combat experience was sufficiently rich, and he had been constantly vigilant of the movements of the opposing Shikigami, so he had not been injured again after that.

However, when the number of Shikigami attacking him reached as many as five.

He... could no longer hold on!

Not long after the new Shikigami arrived on the scene, he was slashed on the body by a blade!

His strength plummeted!

Then, the more he fought, the more severe his injuries became.

A chain reaction!

Until this moment.

"Puchi!" A blade suddenly slashed toward his neck!

For a moment, Wolf Saint clearly saw it, but because his Immortal Qi could not circulate at all throughout his body, his physical reaction could not keep up!

He could only widen his eyes fiercely, watching that Samurai Sword getting closer and closer to him!

He was beheaded by a single blade!

And normally, in the Martial Saint realm, even if one were beheaded, one would not die just like that.

The Immortal Qi would maintain vitality, and one could still fight for a period of time.

If one reattached the head in time, one could even recover on the spot.

Yet at this moment, Wolf Saint, not to mention being unable to fight again, had his body restricted too much.

Even if the opposing Shikigami left afterward, and he retrieved his severed head and placed it back on his neck, he was still unable to use Immortal Qi to restore his vitality...

Dead!

He became the first Martial Saint on the Great Heaven Kingdom's side to fall!
