Chapter 6524 Green Old Sixth’s Power
When Xue Ying claimed Lu Ze and his forces were marching to their deaths, her subordinates wondered if they’d misheard.
Lu Ze’s faction originally numbered over a million powerful nine star heirs. After absorbing a portion of Bing Yi’s forces, that number surpassed two million. And among them were over five hundred cultivators with complete essence runes.
Moreover, the nine star line’s half-step Sovereign Lords were not ordinary by any means. They could crush any standard half-step Sovereign Lord with ease.
Perhaps such a lineup meant little to Xue Ying, but on this battlefield, it was more than enough to dominate, no?
Yet, she said they were walking into death, and this baffled her subordinates.
Xue Ying took a light sip of wine. “The Earth Cauldron is one of the ten great primal chaos divine items. Obtaining it can’t possibly be that easy. Even if Lu Ze does obtain it, so what? Can he leave the heaven region’s battlefield with it? If escape were possible, Long Chen would’ve fled with the cauldron the moment danger closed in, and all these sacrifices would be pointless.
“If no one can leave, then anyone who seizes the Earth Cauldron will immediately become everyone’s target. The exit hasn’t opened yet, so now is not the optimal time to take action. If this idiot Lu Ze wants to die so badly, then just let him.”
Her subordinates silently nodded. They were fortunate they’d chosen her faction over Lu Ze’s. Even with something as tempting as the Earth Cauldron right before her, Xue Ying remained perfectly calm. Across the battlefield, the blood-soaked ground told the fate of those who had been blinded by greed.
“Long Chen, I’ll definitely kill you!” Lu Ze roared as he led two million nine star heirs forward like a tsunami. Their advance looked unstoppable.
“Absolutely terrifying! Don’t you think this is the real number one legion of the nine heavens and ten lands?” gasped one spectator.
“You can’t say that. They only have the advantage in numbers and cultivation.”
“That’s true. The Dragonblood Legion doesn’t have a single half-step Sovereign Lord. Imagine how strong they’ll be once they do. But against so many nine star heirs, they’re destined to be crushed,” someone concluded.
The Dragonblood Legion’s combat power was truly amazing, but there was no way they could block this charge. As Lu Ze led the way, the Nether River Demons and outsider dragons retreated to open a path for them. In any case, the Dragonblood Legion was a tough bone to grind, so they left it for the nine star line.
As the nine star heirs charged into the astral domain around the Earth Cauldron, the frozen area loosened. As a result, it was no longer so difficult to move in it. In truth, this astral pressure affected friend and foe alike; even the Dragonblood warriors had been partially restrained by it.
The Dragonblood Legion moved to block the nine star heirs anyway, even knowing they couldn’t hold them for long.
“Don’t stop them...”
The Earth Cauldron’s voice echoed through their minds, and a gentle force pulled them aside.
The enemies outside had already opened a path for the nine star heirs, and now the Dragonblood Legion stepped aside as well. This scene completely dumbfounded everyone.
“They gave up?”
“That doesn’t seem like their style.”
“Well, what else could they do? Fight to the death?”
“Maybe giving up was the wisest choice.”
“The number-one legion? Hmph.”
Some sighed, while others sneered. Among them were experts from the nine heavens and the Primal Chaos World.
While they were sworn enemies, they had set aside their blood feuds for the moment. In the face of the Earth Cauldron, profit outweighed hatred. This just showed that there was no eternal enmity, only eternal profit.
All eyes were fixed on the Earth Cauldron, the opportunity that could rewrite their fates.
As the Dragonblood Legion gave up and retreated, Lu Ze, who had been preparing a powerful attack, almost spat out blood. It felt as if he had unleashed a full-force blow into empty air.
As the nine star line passed through the defensive line, Lu Ze felt a faint sense of unease. Still, the army behind him was brimming with momentum, so he pressed on.
When Lu Ze appeared in front of the barrier, his astral bone claw smashed into it with a heaven-shaking boom. The impact rocked the barrier and even made the Earth Cauldron tremble.
Standing atop the Earth Cauldron, the green parrot was busy absorbing astral energy and sending it down in torrents. Now, it turned to glare at Lu Ze with its beady little eyes.
“You little brat, you dare to disturb Old Sixth’s meal?! Seems I’ll have to teach you a lesson!”
The green parrot folded its wings. With a sudden snap, green light burst from its feathers and shot toward Lu Ze and his forces.
“Get out of the way!” Lu Ze’s hair stood on end. A terrifying instinct gripped him, and he turned around to flee.
With a very light sound, that green light passed over all of them. None had time to dodge. Strangely, all they felt was a warm current sliding through their bodies and then nothing.
“Hmph, just an act. You won’t scare us!” scoffed one nine star heir, launching another attack at the barrier.
Lu Ze also sensed no change in himself or his men. Snorting, he struck the barrier again.
Xia Chen had constructed this barrier. But upon the green parrot’s arrival, the barrier’s power seemed to have merged with it. At the Earth Cauldron’s command, Xia Chen had surrendered its control to the green parrot entirely.
Lu Ze and the others attacked the barrier crazily, but the parrot simply spread its wings as green light flashed again and again. No matter how Lu Ze and the others attacked, they couldn’t break the barrier.
“You damned parrot! I refuse to believe I can’t kill you!” Lu Ze roared. “Everyone, ignite your astral energy and summon the Eight Star—”
“Lord Lu Ze, you...!”
A terrified scream erupted behind Lu Ze. He jolted and looked around—only to freeze.
Horror flooded his eyes as he stared at his own hand.
