190: Chapter 190 The Military Formation Displays its Power

[Congratulations to you for being the first to kill a Seventh-order Void Monster, rewarded with 100 billion Source Crystals and one Mythic-grade Treasure Chest (Optional).]

When the first Seventh-order Void Monster was killed by Lin Xiao, the System prompt sounded immediately.

"Still a Mythic-grade Treasure Chest?"

Lin Xiao's heart stirred, and he didn't know whether he should feel disappointed or relieved.

He had been looking forward to the first-kill reward of the Seventh-order Void Monster for a long time.

After all, the first-kill reward of the sixth-order Void Monster was already a Mythic-grade Treasure Chest. According to the pattern, the first-kill of the seventh-order should be above the Mythic grade.

The premise was that something above the Mythic grade actually existed.

Now the answer was revealed: the first kill of the seventh-order still gave a Mythic-grade Treasure Chest.

"I wonder if the Mythic grade has reached its limit, or if the first-kill reward has reached its limit?"

Lin Xiao was lost in thought.

If it was the latter, it meant that there should still be a quality above the Mythic grade, but the specification of the first-kill reward was capped right here, and it was impossible to give a higher one.

Regardless, the first-kill of the eighth-order most likely didn't exist.

"However, an optional Mythic-grade Treasure Chest is also quite good."

Being optional meant that Lin Xiao could open the Mythic-grade item with the highest value or the one he needed most, which was much better than ordinary chests that completely relied on luck.

Among the ranking rewards, Mythic-grade items would only appear in the Special Mall.

Lin Xiao could choose to open this optional treasure chest now, or wait until the year-end ranking settlement, in case the things he wanted did not appear in the Special Mall, so he could still rely on the optional treasure chest to get them.

Ultimately, he was in no rush to open it, and even the previous two Mythic-grade Treasure Chests remained untouched.

There were simply too many types of Mythic-grade items that could be opened from treasure chests.

Most of them were useless at the present stage, or might not be stronger than Epic Grade items.

Even if he opened a special building like the chaos mist... think about how much effort he spent to build it out.

The effect of the flower of fortune had disappeared.

It was better to wait until next time and open it when fully prepared.

With thoughts flashing through his mind, Lin Xiao's attacks on the invading army were not affected in the least.

Pincered from front and rear by Lin Xiao, Guan Ri, and the Void Monsters, these Seventh-order armies were instantly in a sorry state. Except for those twenty-three top-tier lords, the other invading armies suffered varying degrees of casualties.

At the same time, Lin Xiao's army was also approaching at full speed.

The fighting style remained the same: taking advantage of the invading army's unstable footing and failure to assemble together, they would first unleash a wave of full-power burst to kill and injure the enemy as much as possible.

Then they would resurrect at the samsara holy stele and fight once more.

The resurrection advantage of his own territory should naturally be fully utilized.

However, having learned a lesson from the last major battle, these Seventh-order Lords were obviously mentally prepared for a possible sneak attack.

While blasting away the Void Monsters, they rapidly closed in, wanting to assemble together.

At the same time, they also split their attention to observe their surroundings.

Lin Xiao's army approaching at full speed was soon discovered by them.

"Enemy attack."

"It's Lin Xiao's army, be careful."

Seeing this, Lin Xiao's army no longer hid. As the Formation took shape, three massive phantoms standing as tall as a thousand meters emerged.

Xuanwu, Thunder Beast, Wind God.

In front of these three immensely huge alien beast phantoms, those ten terrifying phantoms standing hundreds of meters tall appeared much smaller, just like children encountering an adult.

The Military Formation phantom was only related to the Formation Realm and the Formation Rank.

Therefore, even though the three major armies only had six hundred people each, the military Formation phantoms they condensed were even larger than the phantoms condensed by the enemy's tens of thousands of troops.

"An Advanced Military Formation at the Minor Achievement Realm."

Seeing this scene, the expressions of all the invading armies changed drastically.

They knew that Lin Xiao's army had mastered three Advanced Military Formation Techniques, but they didn't expect that the opponent had already mastered an Advanced Military Formation at the Minor Achievement Realm just after upgrading their territory to level 6.

This battle would not be easy to fight.

On the south side of the territory, the thousand-meter-tall black Xuanwu seemed to come alive, and the powers of all heroes and Troop Types were condensed together.

With a single stride, Xuanwu had already arrived in front of that Seventh-order army.

The lord of this Seventh-order army was merely a veteran lord. This time, he brought out 30,000 Epic Units for the invasion, forming several military Formations, some responsible for defense and others for killing enemies.

Slaughtering the surrounding Void Monsters until they were utterly routed.

However, seeing the black Xuanwu appear, this Seventh-order Lord was greatly alarmed.

Six hundred versus thirty thousand, the advantage was on his side?

That didn't exist.

Inside the Xuanwu phantom, the Battering Ram in Zhong Yue's hand was raised and violently swung downward at the front. Outside, one of Xuanwu's huge front legs also lifted up and slapped down toward this Seventh-order army.

"Boom~"

An incomparably terrifying power erupted, and this Seventh-order army suffered heavy casualties immediately, with a large swath of Troop Types killed or injured.

The Xuanwu Return-to-Origin Formation at the Minor Achievement Realm provided a five-fold bonus to the strength of heroes and Troop Types.

And the super-strong strike unleashed by condensing all power was equivalent to the burst of the military Formation, multiplying the power by another five times on this basis.

That was twenty-five times the combat power.

Even though there were only six hundred people, the might of this strike was powerful to the extreme.

If attacking was not what the Black Armor Soldiers excelled at, and there was only one Zhong Yue with unmatched Divine Power, this single strike would have been enough to wipe out this Seventh-order army.

But it didn't matter; if once wasn't enough, then they would come again.

Xuanwu's front leg lifted and fell once more.

"No..."

The Seventh-order Lord who thought he had escaped disaster saw the smile of surviving a catastrophe freeze abruptly on his face.

One time, two times, three times.

As several super-strong strikes fell, this Seventh-order army—its 30,000 Troop Types plus the lord and heroes—was completely wiped out in casualties.

After quickly wiping out an army, the black Xuanwu immediately rushed toward the next target.

The aura on Zhong Yue and the Black Armor Soldiers dropped drastically by a section. However, under the super-strong recovery of the Xuanwu Return-to-Origin Formation, their previous consumption was recovering at an astonishing speed, and before they even reached the next enemy, they had already recovered as before.

After the Xuanwu Return-to-Origin Formation reached Minor Achievement, although it did not activate new traits, the original traits were enhanced quite a bit. At this time, the spiritual power within the Black Armor Soldiers and Zhong Yue was even more massive, and their recovery speed was even faster.

Seeing a Seventh-order army easily wiped out just like that, all the Seventh-order Lords on the south side of the territory turned pale with horror.

They could no longer care about anything else and charged at the black Xuanwu together.

A terrifying major battle erupted on the south side of the territory.

The black Xuanwu rampaged through the monster horde and under the siege of the invading army. Every time an attack fell, it either took away the lives of a large number of heroes and Troop Types, or crushed dozens of Wasteland Savage Elephants into dust.

The more these Seventh-order Lords fought, the uglier their expressions became.

The black Xuanwu seemed virtually unkillable. Its defense was outrageously strong, and it withstood a massive amount of damage from them without even a single Troop Type dying.

However, the opponent's attacks were difficult to block.

What made them feel most incredible was that the super-strong strike, which consumed a huge amount of energy and was used as a fatal finishing move, was almost being used by this army like ordinary skill attacks.

In the end, they tried their best and paid the price of the complete annihilation of ten Seventh-order armies and over half of the casualties among the Wasteland Savage Elephants to forcibly slay this army.
