330: Chapter 330 Mountain Crash

Lin Yue grinned and said, "Rest assured, with me here, the East Gate will not be lost."

He turned and strode toward the East Gate, a massive Rock Demon Phantom appearing behind him and enveloping his entire body.

The East Gate was the weakest link of Meteor City. In the previous battles, the city wall here had suffered the most severe damage. Although it had undergone emergency repairs, it was far less sturdy than other locations. Commander Lieshan chose to attack from here, clearly having spotted this point.

When Lin Yue arrived at the East Gate, Commander Lieshan had already led the elite of the Rock Demon Clan to the foot of the city wall.

Those Rock Demon Clan soldiers were all over two zhang tall, their bodies covered in thick rock armor, possessing astonishing defensive power. They charged to the foot of the city wall and directly rammed it with their bodies. Every impact caused the wall to tremble violently, sending gravel raining down.

Commander Lieshan was even more terrifying. Its five-zhang tall body was like a moving small mountain, and deep cracks appeared on the ground with every step it took. It raised its massive fist and slammed it into the city wall!

Boom! With a loud noise, the city wall shook violently, and fine cracks appeared on the wall! If not for the reinforcement of the Formation, this single punch would have been enough to blast a gap open!

Lin Yue's expression changed, and he hurriedly activated the Rock Demon Prison-Suppressing Array. A massive Rock Demon Phantom emerged behind him, ten zhang tall, much higher than Commander Lieshan. He controlled the Rock Demon Phantom and punched towards Commander Lieshan!

Commander Lieshan looked up and saw the massive Rock Demon Phantom. A flash of surprise crossed its eyes, followed by a cold sneer: "A mere Foundation Establishment Cultivator dares to compete with me in Physical Body?"

It also threw a punch, colliding with the giant fist of the Rock Demon Phantom!

Boom! The two fists collided, erupting with a sky-shaking roar! Violent shockwaves swept in all directions, blowing away the surrounding Rock Demon Clan soldiers!

The Rock Demon Phantom trembled violently, with cracks appearing all over it, nearly collapsing on the spot! Lin Yue felt a terrifying force transmit through the Rock Demon Phantom, shaking his blood and Qi so violently that he nearly spat out a mouthful of blood!

But he gritted his teeth, held on tightly, and did not retreat a single step!

A flash of surprise crossed Commander Lieshan's eyes, and it said, "Oh? You can actually take my punch without falling? Interesting."

It raised its fist again and threw another punch!

Lin Yue took the hit head-on again. Another crack appeared on the Rock Demon Phantom, and his face turned even paler, but his feet were like they had taken root, firmly nailed to the ground!

"Lin Yue, I'm here to help you!" Chu Lan's voice sounded from behind him. She waved her hands repeatedly, and streaks of Sword Qi sank into the ground. Those streaks of Sword Qi contained special spirit plant seeds.

The next moment, countless vines grew wildly from underground! There were Vajra Vines, iron wire vines, and Rock Vines... They clung to the Rock Demon Phantom, merging with the phantom to form a layer of sturdy plant armor!

At the same time, she also cultivated a special spirit plant called "Iron Bone Grass." The roots of those Iron Bone Grasses pierced into the crevices of the city wall like steel needles, growing and spreading continuously, locking the originally loose wall firmly in place! The sturdiness of the city wall was greatly enhanced at this moment!

"Good!" Lin Yue was overjoyed. He felt that the defensive power of the Rock Demon Phantom had significantly increased, and those cracks were slowly healing under the nourishment of Chu Lan's spirit plant power!

Commander Lieshan punched again. This time, although the Rock Demon Phantom still trembled, there were far fewer cracks, and the healing speed was even faster!

Just then, a stirring sound of a zither rang out.

It was Luo Li's "Star Battle Song." Golden Battle Intent merged with the silver melody, transforming into streaks of golden sound waves that surged into Lin Yue's body. He felt his blood boiling, and the power within him instantly surged by thirty percent!

He controlled the Rock Demon Phantom and threw a punch, actually forcing Commander Lieshan to retreat half a step!

"Good!" A sky-shaking cheer erupted from the city wall.

Commander Lieshan's expression turned ugly. As a dignified Golden Core Middle Stage, it had actually been forced back by a Foundation Establishment Cultivator; this was simply a great humiliation!

It roared and charged forward again, its fists smashing down wildly like a rainstorm! One punch, two punches, three punches... Every punch contained enough power to split mountains and crack rocks!

Lin Yue gritted his teeth and resisted hard. New cracks constantly appeared on the Rock Demon Phantom, only to be healed again by Chu Lan's spirit plant power and Yaoguang's healing. He had more and more injuries on his body, and blood constantly spilled from the corner of his mouth, but he never retreated a single step!

Tianxin seized the opportunity and stuck a Dark Concealment Talisman on Lin Yue's back. His aura instantly vanished, and Commander Lieshan's next punch lost its target, smashing into empty air!

It was this momentary lapse that Lin Yue seized, controlling the Rock Demon Phantom to punch Commander Lieshan in the chest! Although this punch did not cause too much damage, it was extremely humiliating!

Commander Lieshan was furious, swinging its fists wildly, wanting to smash this detestable human into meat paste. But under the cover of Tianxin's concealment talisman, Lin Yue flickered in and out of sight, causing its attacks to miss time and time again!

Time passed in the fierce battle.

One incense stick, two incense sticks, half an hour...

Commander Lieshan had attacked dozens of times, and Lin Yue had borne it all. His Rock Demon Phantom shattered and reformed, shattered and reformed again. His body was nearing its limit, but he never let the East Gate fall!

On the city wall, all the Cultivators were stunned. They had never seen such tenacious defense. A Foundation Establishment Cultivator had withstood dozens of full-power attacks from a Golden Core Middle Stage powerhouse and had actually held out for a full half hour!

"This Lin Yue... is simply made of iron!" someone muttered.

Ling Zhan's eyes were filled with shock as he said, "It's not that he's made of iron, it's his will. His will is harder than steel!"

Finally, Commander Lieshan stopped attacking.

It panted heavily, its eyes blood-red, staring fixedly at Lin Yue. It knew that if it continued to attack like this, even if it could kill this human, it would consume a massive amount of time and strength. And the army behind it was still waiting for it to open the city gate.

"Good, good, good!" it gritted its teeth and said, "Since you can endure so well, then let you taste my true power!"

It spread its arms, and an earthen-yellow light surged around its body! The light grew brighter and more intense, illuminating the entire East Gate as if it were daytime!

The surrounding Rock Demon Clan soldiers saw this scene and fled in terror, as if they knew what terrifying thing was about to happen.

Commander Lieshan's form began to change within that light. Its body grew larger, taller, and thicker, finally transforming into a rock mountain one hundred zhang high!

The mountain was entirely composed of hard rock, emitting a terrifying pressure. It hovered in mid-air, blotting out the sky and covering the entire East Gate in its shadow!

"It's Mountain-Splitting Collapse!" Ling Zhan's expression changed drastically, "This is Commander Lieshan's innate Spell, transforming itself into a mountain. With one strike, it is enough to destroy the entire East Gate!"

Chu Lan's face turned pale. She felt the power contained within that mountain; it was simply not something the current Lin Yue could withstand!

Luo Li's zither music became even more urgent, desperately buffing Lin Yue, but that buff seemed insignificant in front of that terrifying mountain!

Yaoguang desperately healed Lin Yue, but her healing power was equally a drop in the bucket!

Tianxin gritted his teeth and said, "Lin Yue, retreat quickly! You cannot block this strike!"

Lin Yue did not retreat.

He looked up at the mountain that blotted out the sky, a bitter smile appearing on the corner of his mouth, and muttered, "Retreat? Where to retreat?"

Behind him was the East Gate. Behind the East Gate was Meteor City. Inside Meteor City were hundreds of thousands of Human Race commoners. Could he retreat? No.

He took a deep breath and fully activated the Rock Demon Prison-Suppressing Array. The already dilapidated Rock Demon Phantom condensed once more; although it was much dimmer than before, it still stood before him.

"Come on," he said in a low voice, "Let me see if your mountain is harder, or if my bones are harder!"

That massive mountain, carrying the momentum to destroy the heavens and earth, smashed down fiercely towards the East Gate!

Before the mountain arrived, the terrifying pressure had already made the Cultivators on the city wall unable to breathe. Countless people turned pale, their legs went weak, and their eyes were filled with despair. If this strike landed, not only would the East Gate be turned into dust, but the entire East City Wall might be razed to the ground!

Lin Yue looked up at the approaching mountain. His Rock Demon Phantom was already dilapidated, his body had reached its limit, but his feet remained firmly nailed to the ground, without retreating a single step.

"Come on!" he roared hoarsely, fully activating his last bit of spiritual power, condensing the Rock Demon Phantom to its limit!

Just at the moment the mountain was about to crash down, a golden figure rushed over from the city wall!

The speed was as fast as lightning, too fast for anyone to react! The golden light tore through the night sky, like a shooting star, crashing fiercely into the massive mountain!

It was Gao Feng!

He gripped the vajra sword tightly with both hands, golden light surging around his body. The Myriad Weight Hegemon Body and Star Battle Body were both pushed to their limits simultaneously, all power converging onto the sword blade!

The third form of the Nine War God Styles — War God Shatter! This form specifically breaks all solid objects! Whether it be a mountain or a city wall, in front of this sword, all will be turned into dust!

The golden sword radiance shot out from the blade, dozens of zhang long, brilliant and eye-catching, illuminating the entire night sky! Wherever the sword radiance passed, the Void Realm trembled, as if it were about to be torn apart!

Boom! The golden sword radiance collided with the massive rock mountain!

With a heaven-shaking roar, the entire Meteor City trembled violently! Countless people were unable to stand steady and fell to the ground! Gravel rained down from the city wall, and some places that were already damaged collapsed directly!

At the center of the collision, blinding light erupted, making it impossible for anyone to look directly at it! Violent shockwaves swept in all directions, blowing away all the surrounding Rock Demon Clan soldiers, some even being torn directly into pieces!

The massive rock mountain was actually shattered by a single sword strike! Countless rocks fell from the sky, smashing into the ground with thunderous roars, leaving the ground outside the East Gate pitted and scarred!

Lin Yue was forced back repeatedly by the shockwave; if not for the protection of the Rock Demon Phantom, he would likely have been injured. He stared fixedly at the center of the light, his eyes filled with shock and worry.

"Senior Brother Gao Feng..."

The light gradually dissipated, and the scene before them made everyone gasp.
