Chapter 536: Disheartened Like Death

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

“Blood Cavalry Halberd! Slash!”

Along with Zong Shou’s halberd slashing down, four thousand halberds all slashed at the same time.

Four thousand odd blood-coloured blade lights swept through the sky. Gathered together, they seemed like they came from the hands of one person.

What the blade light headed towards were the four hundred Cloud Dragon Iron Swordsmen.

“Hong!”

A powerful explosion was created by the four thousand halberds. First, it totally dissipated the cloud dragon energy of the four hundred people, and then it swept across the land. Extremely sharp and clean, like a scythe through wheat, and hundreds of grade-6 Cloud Dragon Iron Swordsmen’s lives were taken away.

In the path of the blade light, only one out of the four hundred remained. It was the grade-9 elder from Lingyun Sect who led the group. His body was covered in wounds, and even bone showed. He gave out a tragic roar, tears appearing on his old face.

Around him, the thread of vital energy from Cloud Dragon Iron Swordsmen’s corpses gathered below and headed for the four thousand blood cavalry armors.

Zong Shou was expressionless, his eyes shining brightly. His martial path was stepping into grade-7, and his control of this cavalry was getting better and better.

An additional thousand members of the bloody cavalry meant a near-doubling of their combat strength!

“Raise your bows! Blood Cavalry Killing Arrow, shoot together with me!”

Along with Zong Shou’s voice, over four thousand blood-colored arrows were notched and drawn back. On each bowstring rested a blood-colored long arrow.

They all shot in unison.

“Weng!”

There seem to be four thousand thousand additional meteors on the horizon, falling from above. A wave of arrows covered those two hundred Daoling Wind Soldiers within.

Following which, they all exploded, releasing numerous blood lights. When that eye-piercing red glow faded away, only a little scattered blood and flesh was left. A ball of bloody mist was falling downwards.

The Blood Cloud Cavalry was now very close to the hundred thousand iron cavalry.

However, they still held the bows in their hands. There was not enough time to change weapons.

Zong Shou didn’t care at all, notching his next arrow and squinting as he looked at the remaining Dao soldiers in the sky.

In that instant, the Blood Cloud Cavalry and the giant iron flood at the front collided into one another.

What was on display was total destruction. As long as the cavalry weren’t at Xiantian, when they were ten thousand feet away, their lives were silently taken by the blood cloud. All their essence, energy, and blood were parasticized by the blood mist.

Even grade-4 Xiantian martial cultivators and out-of-body spirit masters couldn’t take it when they were a thousand feet out.

As the Blood Cloud Cavalry stepped away, a terrifying gap instantly appeared within the mass of hundreds of thousands of cavalry!

When those sixteen thousand iron horse hooves stepped down, the ground became covered with broken and incomplete bodies. Some of them were even reduced to nothing but white bones.

In only a dozen breaths, hundreds of thousands of people were destroyed in utter silence!

“Si–”

On the mountain hill, Jin Buhui sucked in a deep, cold breath, stunned at the scenes before him.

Before this, he had thought that because there were millions of people here, even the Blood Cloud Cavalry, that slaughtered men like pigs, would needs thousands of knives each.

… Who knew that what he saw would be such a terrifying scene!

This was the Blood Cloud Cavalry? The strength of the ancient top iron cavalry?

“There is nothing surprising about this!”

Leidong shook his head, and his expression was really complicated. “They are able to absorb one’s vital energy and essence energy to increase their strength. As long as there are still living spirits to kill, they can continue fighting for several days. This was the reason why the Blood Cloud Cavalry was said to be invincible in the ancient era. Do you know that in Wulie Country era, all grades 4 and below cultivators didn’t go onto the battlefield? That was because anyone below martial ancestor level going up against the Blood Cloud Cavalry, would definitely have their blood essence sucked away…”

Whilst he said this, Leidong looked up into the pale green sky.

In a short time, the light barrier had became more and more real. This Pinnacle Space Dome formation had already cut off this part of heaven and earth.

Was Zong Shou planning to kill them all today?

… The destruction of a sect, rise of a country, so it was this easy.

“That’s right!”

Tian qi smiled when he heard that. “After today, there will be no Mysterious Cloud Spirit Sect in this world…”

Waving his hand, the Kongqi Sect disciples all understood the signal. They walked forwards, and three hundred thirty thousand feet away from the mountain, they laid out the energy destroying crossbows.

This place was the best shooting location.

Apart from forty grade-7 giant crossbows and four hundred grade-6 crossbows, the beast crystals all shoved into the indents.

Leidong took a look, instantly his lips curled up,”Your Kongqi Sect is really generous, even daring to spend so much grade-7 beast crystals. What benefits did Zong Shou promise you for you to dare to spend so much money…”

Tianqi laughed out loud, not taking it to heart. In his laughter, hundreds of beast crystals turned into light and shot out, shooting in the direction of Mysterious Cloud Mountain.

When that energy destroying crossbow fired, apart from a heavy spiritual explosion, there were no other sounds.

When those hundreds of eye piercing energy lights struck the midwaist of the mountain, instantly heaven and earth shook. Terrifying ripples started to spread all out, the sound waves smashed everything into dust.

Numerous golden spiritual marks appeared outside of the mountain body, however they were all in a heavily-broken state!

Where the iron horse hooves passed, the blood-colored cavalry didn’t even need to attack. As long as the surrounding mist touched them, their enemies would die.

A deathly grievance energy spread thousands of miles!

In a few breaths, four hundred Cloud Dragon Iron Swordsmen had died! Two hundred Daoling Wind Warriors, all dead!

The one hundred forty thousand soldiers equipped with spiritual artifacts, at least the Martial Master Realm elite cavalry he had placed at the front were all wiped out.

Not long ago, that flood-like attack was instantly dissolved.

“Blood Cloud Cavalry? Wulie Country!”

Yangfan turned around his head, his gaze like that of a blade. “Who can tell me what this Blood Cloud Cavalry is?”

The moment he said that, the other lords looked around with confused expressions.

After all, it was something from ten thousand years ago. There were very few people who knew, and they also didn’t have time now to inform everybody.

Assessing his troops, he saw the ashen-white faces of the cultivators around. No one replied. A few of them flew up and ran towards the direction of the Mysterious Cloud Mountain.

In the end, it was still the old man beside Yangfan who said coldly, “What’s the point of saying that? You only need to know that just two units of this Blood Cloud Cavalry can go against my sect’s four hundred Cloud Dragon Iron Swordsman…”

He looked up into the sky at those scenes,.”Today the Monster King wants to wipe everyone out! If we don’t win, we will only die! We can only fight to the death…”

The moment he said those words, there was silence. The leaders of the cities all retreated backwards.

Actually, even before they had seen that Blood Cloud Iron Cavalry charge out, they had already been harbouring such doubts in their minds.

At this moment, the old man’s words became the last straw which broke the camel’s back.

They were all intelligent and sensitive people. How could they not know the purpose of Gantian Mountain using this Pinnacle Space Dome Formation to lock down this land?

They only knew that if they didn’t wipe out the blood-colored cavalry then all that waited for them was death…

The problem was, how could they fight? What could they use to fight?

A cavalry army based on high grade Dao soldier arrangement, one unit should be three hundred, and two should be six hundred.

In other words, the four thousand-strong blood cavalry was equal to two thousand five hundred Cloud Dragon Iron Swordsmen.

Such scale of high grade iron cavalry to sweep Donglin Cloud Continent was enough. The 3.7 million soldiers here weren’t even enough to fill the gaps of one’s teeth.

If they escaped right now, they had the chance to create a small hole in this Pinnacle Space Dome Formation…

Yangfan was startled and standing on the spot, his eyes were about to pop out, gritting his teeth in fear.

The ice cold feeling in his heart was hard to describe with words. He felt a bone-chilling cold intent.

He came over with so much confidence and thought they could get ride of this future enemy. How had it ended in such a way?

The Monster King opposite must be mocking him.

Thinking back to the past, everything seemed like a ant trying to shake an elephant, what a joke.

He knew that Zong Shou’s gaze wasn’t on their bodies but Yangfan felt his face turn red, and that the people around were laughing at him.

That person’s schemes weren’t on the same level. The true opponent he was targeting wasn’t the small Thousand City Alliance but the Donglin Sects.

What could he be considered? A clown?

“Pu!”

On the Mysterious Cloud Mountain peak, Wuyue spat out a mouthful of blood, his face was so disheartened that it seemed like he was facing death.

The mountain body of Mysterious Cloud Spirit Sect was taking the second wave of damage from the energy destroying crossbows, however he didn’t feel anything.

… Tt is finished, everything is over! Two hundred grade-6 Dao soldiers might not be much to those shrines or big sects, but to Daoming Sect it was the true essence of their sect. Even the so-called elite disciples compare to it.

70% of their strength had been buried here in just one day.

Without these killing weapons how could Daoming Sect deal with evil and monsters?

If he had known this would happen, he would have been careful, and wouldn’t have to pretend.

At this moment, Yuankong’s face was devoid of blood.

The four hundred Cloud Dragon Iron Cavalry were already dead, two hundred Daoling Wind Warriors all wiped out. Their Mysterious Cloud Spirit Sect’s mysterious cloud lightning warriors were also not far from being totally wiped out, and were about to fall.

“Is there really no other way? How did the Blood Cloud Cavalry fall initially? Wasn’t it in the hands of those of the Common People Path?”

“That’s right! Ten thousand years ago, the Common People Path, which was close to destruction could do it. We might be able to do avoid death as well…”

“I remember roughly that they used a chilling element spell to congeal the blood mist. Then they used a spell to disturb the formation within the armor, and cause it to weaken!”

“However, isn’t it said that this method could only be used for under three hundred people? With such a vast wave, how can they attack?”
