159: Shocking the whole audience! This is the strength of Infinite City!
Everyone stared blankly at the colossal city floating above.
Its sheer size made the Dark Star Empire's floating fortresses look like children's toys in comparison.
Infinite City!
It had descended so abruptly onto this battlefield on the verge of collapse!
On the city wall, a figure stood leaning on the railing.
Su Jin looked down at the chaotic battlefield, his deep eyes reflecting the soaring flames and the clashing armies.
Behind him, Bai Xiao and Huo Jun stood on either side.
"What a lively welcome ceremony," Su Jin said with a smile.
"We need to hurry; the teleportation channel can't keep the Infinite City afloat for too long."
Su Jin turned to look at Huo Jun.
"Huo Jun."
"At your command, General!"
Huo Jun stepped forward, vaulted onto his Storm Dragon Horse.
The tip of his long spear flickered with lightning.
Behind him, the Vast Sea Cloud Banner unfurled silently.
Behind him, the massive teleportation gate of the Thunderbeast Pens opened.
Fifty thousand riders, clad in heavy armor with lightning patterns and mounted on Storm Dragon Horses with twin horns wreathed in electricity.
Like a surging torrent of thunder, they charged out of the city, treading through the air, and arrayed themselves before the Infinite City.
Abyssal Thunder Dragon Riders!
"Thunder-Piercing Javelin."
A divine light flashed in Huo Jun's eyes, and he pointed his long spear at the densest formations of the Dark Star army below.
"All troops ā"
"Fire!"
Buzz ā!
The fifty thousand Abyssal Thunder Dragon Riders moved in perfect unison, each taking a specially crafted javelin inscribed with lightning runes from the side of their saddle.
Infusing them with spirit energy, they hurled them forward!
In that instant, the sky seemed to rip apart.
Fifty thousand golden bolts of lightning, trailing long, incandescent wakes, streaked across the sky like a grand meteor shower, plummeting towards the ground!
Below, the Dark Star army, having just recovered from the shock of the Infinite City's appearance.
Before they could even react, that deathly curtain of lightning had already descended.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom ā!
A series of violent explosions, almost merging into one, instantly engulfed large sections of the Obsidian army.
Each Thunder-Piercing Javelin that hit its target erupted in a thunderous storm.
Furious electrical tendrils spread wildly in all directions, tearing apart all enemies within range, reducing them to charred remains.
After the explosions, the ground was left with numerous static fields that continued to flicker with electricity.
Any creature that stepped into them would instantly be paralyzed.
With just one volley, the Dark Star Empire's proud, seemingly impenetrable front lines were forcefully cleared of a massive chunk!
On the battlefield, whether it was the Alliance soldiers fighting to the death or the high-and-mighty Legendary powerhouses, a profound silence fell.
Li Mo stared blankly ahead at the Obsidian Destroyer that had just been aggressively charging towards him.
Now, it and dozens of its companions had vanished into a scorched, electricity-flickering death zone.
He looked up at the magnificent city suspended in the sky, and at the figure on the city wall, who seemed to be a god looking down on all living beings.
He opened his mouth, but not a single word came out.
However, the cavalry in the sky did not cease their assault.
"All troops, charge!"
On the city wall, Huo Jun's voice boomed like rolling thunder.
He pointed his long spear forward, and his Storm Dragon Horse let out a high-pitched neigh, its four hooves treading the air, its body wreathed in electricity, as it was the first to dive down.
Behind him, the thunderous torrent formed by the fifty thousand Abyssal Thunder Dragon Riders followed closely.
They descended from the heavens, like a bursting river of lightning, swooping down upon the Dark Star formations below.
Beneath their hooves was the void, and also the doomsday of their enemies.
"Whoosh....."
The Dark Star army finally reacted from their shock, and the sinister Demon Bat fighters in the sky let out piercing shrieks.
They turned, like a vast black cloud, to meet the diving Abyssal Thunder Dragon Riders.
However, what they faced was another massacre that had long been prepared.
On the Infinite City wall, Zhui Yun raised his longbow.
"Fire."
With a command, tens of thousands of arrows imbued with the power of wind and thunder shot from their strings!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh ā!
That was not an arrow rain; it was a howling lightning storm.
Each arrow trailed a pale blue electric light, tearing through the air, emitting a sharp sonic boom.
They wove together in the sky to form a massive electric net, covering the black cloud of Demon Bat fighters.
Clang... Clang... Clang...
The sound of sharp arrows piercing metal casings came in dense succession.
Countless Demon Bat fighters were riddled with holes in mid-air, and the raging power of thunder exploded within their bodies.
They were blasted into charred fragments, falling like dumplings.
With just one volley, nearly half of the Dark Star Empire's proud aerial forces were wiped out!
And that wasn't all.
"Buzz ā"
On the hundred-meter-high walls of the Infinite City, hundreds of arrow towers simultaneously lit up with runic light.
These war machines, which usually had little chance to fire, now finally had the opportunity to unleash their full power.
"Hostile targets detected..."
"Automatic targeting system activated..."
"Energy loading... Fire!"
Swish swish swish ā!
An overwhelming rain of arrows poured down from the city walls, so dense that it even dimmed the sky below.
This was no longer a tactical strike; this was an indiscriminate saturation of firepower.
The Alliance soldiers on the battlefield were stunned.
What happened to holding the line? What happened to fighting to the death?
How did a "city" suddenly drop from the sky and just start grinding the enemy into the ground?
...
High above, on the Legendary battlefield.
The Flame Heaven Sword Master's lips were bleeding, and the flames on his body had dimmed somewhat.
The two Legendary powerhouses opposite him attacked in succession, their relentless assault keeping him on the defensive.
The Giant Rock Titan's situation was even worse.
His rock body was covered in black cracks, traces of erosion from the enemy's energy.
"Give up."
The Dark Star Legendary wielding the scythe let out a hooting laugh.
"Your defenses have collapsed, your defeat is only a matter of time."
"Look at those ants still struggling below, even if reinforcements arrive, what can they do?"
He slowly raised his massive scythe, his voice filled with arrogance.
"Remember, without reaching Legendary, you are ultimately just ants!"
Then, his expression froze.
An indescribable aura of annihilation descended upon this space without warning.
It was as if the entire world had been muted, the chaotic energy currents instantly subsided, and even the flow of air stagnated.
A figure appeared silently before the Flame Heaven Sword Master.
He was dressed in white, holding a seemingly ordinary longsword, his black hair stirring without wind.
He did not exude any pressure, but his very presence seemed to become the center of this world, the end point of all laws.
It was Bai Xiao.
"Who are you?!"
The Dark Star Scythe Legendary asked, a hint of surprise and uncertainty in his voice.
He felt that his proud speed, at the moment the other appeared, seemed to be "frozen" by an invisible force.
The enormous Abyssal Worm let out an uneasy roar, instinctively recoiling.
Bai Xiao did not answer.
He raised his eyes, and in his indifferent gaze, the figures of the four Dark Star Legendary powerhouses were reflected.
The next moment, he raised his sword.
'True Name' unleashed.
A horizontal slash.
A pale white sword mark appeared out of thin air in the void.
As if disregarding distance and space, the moment it appeared, it had already cut across the mountain-sized Abyssal Worm.
"Roar...?"
The Abyssal Worm's massive body stiffened.
Immediately after, a faint, pale white line extended from its head all the way to its tail.
Puff.
With a soft sound, this terrifying Legendary-tier behemoth was smoothly split into two halves.
There was no blood, no internal organs, only a body that had been completely erased by the 'Annihilation' law, turning into dust.
One sword, slaying a Legendary!
At this moment, the True Name of Annihilation echoed through the world.
The entire battlefield once again fell into dead silence.
