671: Chapter Moths Flock

At the same moment the Great Eagle Country was ravaged by Black Nether Armor Locusts, the situation in Great Xia was also extremely grim.

Countless Gray Phantom Moths surged towards the Great Xia border like a raging torrent, covering the sky and earth.

They were densely packed, like a huge gray cloud, obscuring the sky and sun, filling people with endless fear and despair.

Standing on the city walls of the Great Xia border, the various Experts of the Great Xia Alliance looked solemn, gazing at the terrifying insect swarm.

The sheer number of these Gray Phantom Moths was beyond imagination; they pressed forward with an imposing Aura, like waves dozens of feet high.

"Once this sky-filling insect swarm enters Great Xia territory, the casualties will likely be immeasurable."

Oriental Ling said with a worried expression, his brows tightly furrowed, his eyes revealing concern for the situation.

After speaking, he turned to look at the few people beside him, his gaze lingering on them for a moment, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.

"Senior Phoenix, I'm afraid we'll have to trouble you all again this time!"

Oriental Ling's words carried a touch of helplessness; clearly, he felt helpless in the face of the current crisis and could only place his hopes on the two people beside him.

The person in front of him wore crimson battle armor, with Phoenix-like brows and heroic eyes; it was none other than Wind Light Dance, one of the original Four Kings!

Although Great Xia was prosperous now, and King Realm Experts were increasing, the truly top-tier combat power was still too scarce.

Even if Oriental Ling and Lan Cang, after becoming Dragon King and Prince Wuan, received various resources and occasional guidance from the Four Kings, their strength improvement was still limited.

Now, they were only at the King Realm Late Stage, still some distance from the King Realm Peak.

Aside from Sword Lord and Dragon Lord Baili Ziyuan, who had left long ago and had not yet returned, the remaining Nine Lords were only at the King Realm Middle Stage.

This was already quite good, considering they had been in their positions for less than a year.

Among the contemporary Experts from the Four Great Families, Dragon Tiger Mountain, and Haoran Martial Hall, the strongest were only at King Realm Triple Layer, with no one having yet reached King Realm Late Stage.

And now, within the Gray Phantom Moths swarm, an Emperor Realm Expert had already been detected, so even if Oriental Ling was unwilling, he had no choice but to invite the Four Kings, who were in seclusion.

However, besides Wind Light Dance, the only other of the Four Kings who came was Azure King.

Bai Yuan had already led a team to the Scarlet Grassland and had not yet returned, and Dragon Xuanyuan was in a critical stage of his seclusion and had not come out.

Fortunately, this time, in addition to the Great Xia Military Department and Martial Security Bureau, Duanmu Yan and Su Yao, five people from Star Technology, a total of six King Realm Experts, all came down to assist.

Various countries within the Alliance and some civilian forces also came to assist, with no less than 150 King Realm Experts alone.

Such a powerful lineup was truly unprecedented!

"It's fine. Protecting Great Xia is inherently the responsibility of each of us. What's more, they are just mere insects. They shall not take Half-Step into our Great Xia territory!"

Wind Light Dance's eyes seemed to burn with endless flames, blazing fiercely within her gaze.

Behind her, a fire Phoenix several feet tall gradually condensed into form. The Phoenix's feathers shone with a scorching light, each feather like a burning flame, emitting a heart-palpitating heat.

As the fire Phoenix condensed, a vast Aura swept over like a storm.

This Aura was like an overwhelming force, impossible to resist.

Upon feeling this pressure, some people's expressions changed drastically, revealing looks of extreme shock.

"Is this Half-Step Emperor Realm?!"

Someone cried out in surprise, their voice filled with disbelief.

Although they knew Wind Light Dance was powerful, they never expected her to have reached such a terrifying Realm.

Just as everyone was astonished, Azure King also sighed deeply, and a powerful Aura similarly emanated from him.

This Aura was on par with Wind Light Dance's, also at the Half-Step Emperor Realm level.

At this moment, it was no longer time to hide their strength.

A great battle was imminent. Only by demonstrating absolute strength could they boost morale and make everyone firm in their belief to bravely kill the enemy.

"Everyone!"

Azure King shouted loudly, his voice like a great bell, echoing across the battlefield.

"For our loved ones behind us, for our country, and even more so for ourselves, we absolutely cannot allow the invading enemy to take a single step into the cities behind us!"

His words were like a thunderclap, exploding in people's hearts.

The millions of Alliance troops and the Experts on the city wall were all inspired by his words, shouting in unison:

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

For a moment, the shouts of battle were deafening, echoing through the sky.

The sound was like a raging tide, surging powerfully, making people's hearts tremble.

Just then, the sky-filling Gray Phantom Moths surged towards the Great Xia border like a gray torrent, covering the sky and earth. They were already less than ten li from the border, and a thrilling battle seemed about to erupt.

"Rumble!"

Suddenly, when the Gray Phantom Moths were less than eight li from the Great Xia Alliance border, dazzling rays of light flashed across the sky like lightning, accompanied by deafening roars, and powerful attacks suddenly appeared within the insect swarm.

This sudden attack instantly threw the originally orderly Gray Phantom Moths swarm into chaos. Individual Gray Phantom Moths flew in all directions like a disturbed beehive, and many were even directly shot down by this sudden assault.

"Great, it worked!"

Seeing this scene, the people on the city wall all breathed a sigh of relief, their faces showing joyful smiles.

Because this was precisely the trap they had meticulously set up beforehand, aiming to deliver a heavy blow to the insect swarm on its inevitable path, thereby depleting its numbers.

However, although the sky-filling Gray Phantom Moths were momentarily thrown into disarray by this sudden attack.

Their numbers were simply too vast. After only a few breaths, a strange gust of wind blew through, and these moths, as if controlled by some mysterious force, quickly regained their calm and continued to surge towards the Great Xia border like a gray torrent.

Immediately after, as if receiving some command, they even split into smaller swarms that actively triggered the hidden traps.

"Were we discovered? As expected, they cannot be underestimated."

Oriental Ling said in a low voice, clearly indicating that there was a highly intelligent entity within the Gray Phantom Moths swarm, and that was very likely the Grey Phantom Moth Emperor.

"It was only meant to consume some cannon fodder anyway. These alone could never stop them."

Wind Light Dance, however, was very calm. Her gaze was fixed intently on a certain direction ahead, as if something there was attracting her.

"When they approach five li, all King Realm Experts will attack. When they approach three li, the army will charge.

Those who flee in battle will be executed!"

After Wind Light Dance finished speaking and exchanged a look with Azure King, she said no more, because the opposing Insect Emperor had not yet appeared, and they both needed to remain vigilant.

Oriental Ling and Lan Cang heard this and, without the slightest hesitation, leaped out and flew above the city wall, preparing for battle.
