869: One man fights one city
Doreina had previously witnessed a Middle Stage ninth-rank powerhouse unleash their full might.
That kind of power was truly terrifying!
Although she now possessed Early Stage ninth-rank strength, and was only one small Realm away from the Middle Stage ninth-rank, the gap between them was like heaven and earth.
After all, an Early Stage ninth-rank only just began to touch upon the Law, while a Middle Stage ninth-rank had already condensed a Dark World.
One cleverly borrowed the power of heaven and earth, while the other mobilized the power of heaven and earth through their own will.
Between the two, the superiority was immediately apparent!
In Doreina’s view, the defensive barrier shrouding the arrogant figure in the sky was the external manifestation of the Dark World’s power.
The reason why the energy cannons and Law-breaking crossbow bolts initially couldn't shake it was because there was a qualitative difference in power between the two sides.
Although this gap could be compensated for by quantity, the amount required would be extremely terrifying.
“What should we do?”
“This Human True Lord is too powerful. The warriors’ counterattacks are completely ineffective against him, and he’s constantly bombarding the Guardian Array’s defensive barrier, which is rapidly increasing energy consumption and also having a significant impact on the city.”
Urshan looked at Doreina with a grave expression, his voice laced with anxiety.
The Guardian Array’s defensive barrier could still hold on for now, but the Dead Spirit Race within Blade City could not.
As the largest gathering place for the Dead Spirit Race in the entire Demon Beast Forest, Blade City not only had powerful Undead Warriors but also a large number of ordinary Dead Spirit Race members.
Every time the Guardian Array’s defensive barrier was attacked, the thunderous roar that erupted, and the terrifying sound waves swept across the entire Blade City.
Undead Warriors with cultivation could resist, but those ordinary Dead Spirit Race members could not.
In this short period, many Dead Spirit Race members had already been shaken to death.
Even some weaker Undead Warriors had their eardrums shattered, making them unable to continue fighting.
If this continued, the Guardian Array’s defensive barrier wouldn't even be broken, and Blade City would suffer heavy casualties first.
“He is manifesting his Dark World to resist our attacks, so his own consumption must be considerable.”
“Continue to have the warriors use energy cannons and Law-breaking giant crossbows to attack, and we will also control the Guardian Array to assist.”
“Inject the Law profoundness we have comprehended when attacking; it should achieve an unexpected effect.”
“As long as his consumption is too great, the enemy will be forced to retreat.”
“He is only one person; he absolutely cannot outlast us.”
Doreina glanced in the direction of the City Lord’s Mansion, then spoke rapidly.
Last time, when she and Urshan went to find City Lord Guger, besides probing his true strength, they did gain something.
They obtained the second authority to control Blade City’s Guardian Array from Gu Ge’er, allowing them to use the Guardian Array’s offensive functions.
“But…”
Hearing Doreina’s words, a hint of hesitation appeared on Urshan’s Face:
“If we use the Guardian Array’s offensive function, it will consume energy faster, which will shorten the Guardian Array’s activation time…”
“Then do you have any other good ideas?”
Urshan’s words were cut off unceremoniously by Doreina before he could finish:
“If we don’t repel the enemy, the Guardian Array’s energy reserves will still be rapidly consumed; your worry is completely unnecessary.”
“Moreover, only by repelling the enemy will we have time to recharge the Guardian Array.”
“I see, you’ve been scared witless, haven’t you?”
Looking at Urshan, Doreina’s eyes were icy cold.
“You… you’re right.”
Urshan was stunned by the words, then let out a bitter laugh.
Although he was unwilling to admit it, Doreina was right.
He was indeed scared.
Since arriving to guard Blade City, this was the first time he had felt such fear, no, even since he began cultivating, it was the first time.
Now, being exposed by Doreina, Urshan felt utterly ashamed.
Over a hundred years had already worn away the bloodlust and fighting spirit in his heart.
However, at this moment.
Under Doreina’s cold gaze, Urshan felt a trace of unruliness after his immense shame.
“I’ll go first!”
Urshan let out a low roar, taking a step forward to stand at the edge of the city wall.
Buzz buzz buzz!!
He was seen with power surging on his body, communicating with the entire Guardian Array. Under the burst of immense energy, the ripples on the Guardian Array’s defensive barrier even smoothed out.
“You damned Human Race, don’t be so arrogant! Watch me, Urshan, deal with you!”
As he spoke, Urshan waved his hands, forming a strange hand seal in front of his chest.
Rumble!
In an instant, the Guardian Array’s defensive barrier suddenly shook. Immediately after, a giant spear, thirty meters long and exuding a dark, evil aura, shot out like a rainbow piercing the sun, rushing towards Wang Chen.
The Dead Spirit Race was different from the Human Race; all powerhouses who stepped into the ninth-rank comprehended the Darkness Law.
As one of the three Great Commanders of the Blade City Guardian Legion, Urshan’s depth of exploration in the Darkness Law surpassed that of Doreina and Zoltan.
At this moment, he fully activated the Darkness Law and combined it with the power of the Guardian Array. The power of this attack had already entered the Realm of the Middle Stage ninth-rank.
However…
“Such a trivial trick dares to show off before an expert!”
Wang Chen sneered as he watched the massive black spear shoot towards him.
He stopped bombarding the Guardian Array’s defensive barrier, clenched his left fist, and smashed it towards the black spear. With a bang, the black spear was directly shattered into countless fragments by him.
“This, this, this…”
On the city wall of Blade City, the many Undead Warriors, who had been excited to see Great Commander Urshan make a move, suddenly had their expressions freeze.
The terrifying power of that black spear made them feel an immense palpitation, even though they were naturally close to the Darkness Law, and they couldn’t even look directly at it.
Its power was evident!
But such a powerful attack was effortlessly shattered by the enemy with a single punch.
This caused the confidence that the many Undead Warriors had just built up to collapse again like a pile of sand.
And beside Urshan, Doreina’s expression also changed.
“How does this Human True Lord’s strength feel even more terrifying than two days ago?”
Doreina was horrified, her eyes wide like copper bells.
To so easily shatter Urshan’s attack, which was launched with the aid of the Guardian Array, in Doreina’s opinion, even City Lord Gu Ge’er couldn't do it.
“Let’s act together.”
“I alone cannot pose a threat to him.”
Urshan no longer cared about the issue of Face at this point.
Wang Chen was too terrifying!
He alone could not suppress the opponent.
“Good!”
Doreina nodded, also unleashing her power to connect with the Guardian Array, using the Darkness Law to launch an attack.
At the same time, at this moment, the many Undead Warriors on the city wall also woke up as if from a dream, one after another activating the energy cannons and Law-breaking giant crossbows.
For a time, a sky full of energy light beams, crossbow bolts, and the spears condensed by Urshan and Doreina with the Darkness Law, overwhelmingly struck towards Wang Chen.
