407: Chapter Who is the final winner?
As these cold words fell, the great sword in the Sword Demon's hand, carrying immense power, fiercely stabbed towards the defensive Magic Array above the city.
Only a crisp cracking sound was heard. The incredibly sturdy defensive Magic Array, under this earth-shattering blow, was as fragile as thin paper, easily pierced through by the great sword, creating a large hole.
Then, the Sword Demon flicked his wrist, abruptly twisting the great sword, and a massive, bottomless crack rapidly spread from where the sword tip pointed.
It was as if a hideous and terrifying giant dragon had opened its bloody maw, intending to completely devour this city.
"Arrogant! How could I let you break through so easily?!"
The Magister directly raised his staff and began replenishing energy for the defensive Magic Array. In an instant, the opened crack began to heal.
The other Magicians began activating the defensive or offensive Magic Arrays that had been set up beforehand, not only attacking the Sword Demon but also the army of Demonic Beasts that had rushed closer.
"Everyone, act quickly!"
There was no other reason; it was simply because they knew the advantage in the battle was still in their hands, but this advantage was fleeting.
As long as they could seize this opportunity to kill the Four Demon Generals in one go, victory would be in sight; conversely, if they allowed the enemy to break through the defense line, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Especially when a crack appeared in the massive Magic Array guarding the city, everyone's hearts leaped into their throats.
It must be known that once this city was breached, the army of Demonic Beasts would surely surge in like a tide. By then, the entire Five Allied Nations would fall into utter destruction.
And to stop this catastrophe, they would have to put in several, or even dozens of times, more effort than they were currently.
"Everyone, we are indebted to your assistance this time. After this is done, our Five Allied Nations will surely reward you handsomely!"
Just then, five peerless experts from the Five Allied Nations, whose strength had reached the Half-King Realm, stepped forward together.
They were seen first cupping their fists towards the surrounding crowd, expressing their sincere gratitude, and then their figures flashed, shooting out like arrows released from a bowstring.
In the blink of an eye, they had already leaped above the sky, flying straight towards the Sword Demon and the other three Demon Realm experts.
It was clear that these five Half-King Realm Experts deeply understood the principle of leading by example.
If even they couldn't go all out, how could they expect others to fight to the death without holding back?
As expected, seeing them so brave and fearless, experts from other nations were also greatly encouraged, and they all used their respective methods to join the battle.
For a time, lights of various colors shone dazzlingly, and shouts of killing echoed through the sky.
"Hahahaha, let's have a good fight today!"
Facing the numerous experts who were charging fiercely, the Sword Demon and the other Four Demon Generals not only showed no fear but instead burst into laughter, looking up at the sky.
As the laughter rang out, a majestic dark golden flame erupted from their bodies, colliding fiercely with the human experts charging towards them.
"Boom!"
Accompanied by an earth-shattering roar, it was as if the entire world trembled.
At the moment the two sides clashed, an unparalleled energy storm suddenly erupted, its power so immense it was astonishing.
The Sword Demon and the other Four Demon Generals were seen unleashing the mysterious power that had been hidden within them for a long time without hesitation. For a time, light radiated in all directions, and their momentum was like a rainbow.
In an instant, the Aura of the four of them surged like a volcanic eruption, and their already incredibly powerful strength increased exponentially.
Although the number of enemies they faced at this moment far exceeded their own, these Four Demon Generals showed no fear. Instead, they became braver the more they fought, as if War Gods had descended upon the world.
And behind them, numerous other Demonic Beasts of the Martial Lord Realm also launched fierce attacks.
The actions of these Demonic Beasts seemed chaotic, but in reality, they were perfectly coordinated. They all attacked the sturdy defensive Magic Array, appearing and disappearing.
Although each attack seemed slight, countless such attacks converging together brought considerable pressure to the Magic Array.
At the same time, the dense mass of Demonic Beasts below surged forward like a raging tide, with deafening roars and footsteps, rushing towards the front like lightning.
"Roar~"
Roars filled with wildness and killing intent echoed through the sky, intertwined with bursts of rumbling, jointly playing the prelude to this bloody battle.
Looking at the intensely fierce battle scene in the sky, Chao Feng couldn't help but frown, "Are we just going to stand by and watch like this?
Isn't this the perfect opportunity to eliminate those Four Demon Generals? If we can seize this chance to kill them in one go..."
However, before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Baili Ziyuan beside her.
Baili Ziyuan's gaze was fixed on the continuously burning and leaping dark golden flames, his expression extremely solemn.
"More than a dozen top experts in the Half-King Realm joining forces couldn't do anything to them. Do you think adding the two of you can turn the tide of battle?
Don't be naive. That is Luo Xiu's power, something we cannot easily contend with."
"Unless you use the trump card given by the Dragon King, you don't even have the right to intervene."
He had fought against the Four Demon Generals before. Now their strength had increased again. Even he might not be able to defeat them when they combined their power.
"But even so, everyone else has gone up. If we don't, I'm afraid it will tarnish the name of our Great Xia!"
Ba Xia said with a frown, "Although Luo Xiu hasn't made a move yet, the Old King of the Five Allied Nations also hasn't.
According to the regulations, if we don't provide support, the Old King has the right to expel us!"
"In that case, let's make a move. We just need to block the Demonic Beasts below. Pay attention to receiving the signal, and absolutely do not get bogged down in a fight!"
Ba Xia and Chao Feng nodded slightly upon hearing this. The next moment, they led the Dragon Group members onto the city wall and began attacking the distant army of Demonic Beasts.
And Baili Ziyuan watched all of this silently. The sense of crisis in his heart grew stronger and stronger, "Why haven't you made a move yet? What are you waiting for?"
Behind the army of Demonic Beasts, on the back of a giant elephant as massive as a mountain, Luo Xiu stood with his hands behind his back, clad in black battle armor, quietly gazing into the distance.
His pair of heterochromatic eyes, one gold and one dark, were like the deep and boundless cosmic starry sky, mysterious and awe-inspiring.
"Interesting, you can really endure!"
Luo Xiu whispered softly, the corner of his mouth slightly curved upwards, outlining a nearly imperceptible smile.
The reason he didn't personally take action was not because of fear or insufficient strength, but because he had deeper considerations.
On one hand, he wanted to use this opportunity to temper his Four Demon Generals, allowing them to continuously grow and improve their strength through actual combat.
On the other hand, he also intentionally left some time for the people of the Five Allied Nations.
Because he knew that the energy gained from devouring Martial Lord Realm and King Realm Experts differed greatly.
If he pushed too hard, causing those people to lose the opportunity for a Breakthrough, it would undoubtedly be a loss for him.
Just then, Luo Xiu suddenly turned his head sharply, his gaze shooting towards a certain direction like lightning.
The faint smile that was originally on his face vanished instantly, replaced by a cold expression, like frost in the depths of winter, emitting faint chills.
"Heh, let's see who the oriole is then."
