Chapter 473

473 Battle to the End of the Horizon

Just as the human town was putting together a defensive counterattack formation, the village army did not think much of it and did not suspect that it was a trap. They continued to lead the small teams towards the town.

When the villagers who had crossed the mountain saw that the other party was putting up a defense instead of escaping, they could not help but smile and started to chat with the people around them.

“Are they idiots? Why aren’t they escaping when they see the number one warrior of Cloud Village, Si Zhan?”

“Watch my performance later. Today’s goal is to take more than 10 people down. It won’t stop until I reach it.”

“Even those whose strength are equivalent to seven-year-old children have been sent out. They are too weak and will be crushed like tofu.”

The warrior realm was a realm that the villagers treated as equivalent to a child under the age of 10. The moment they appeared on the battlefield, all the villagers could not help but reveal looks of disdain.

This was especially true for the young men and women from the villages. The people they could usually bully were those who were younger than them, but they could not kill those from the same village.

Now, they were very happy. They would soon be able to capture a group of weaker people. At the thought of this, their fighting spirit surged. They had to go all out today.

Soon, the troops of the humans from the blue planet made the first move.

A martial master was standing on the back of a ferocious bird, circling the village army from afar. With a flap of its wings, the ferocious bird closed the distance to get within attack range. With another flap of its wings, it pulled back to a safe distance.

After riling up the villagers this way once or twice, the ferocious bird cooperated with the human on its back and suddenly launched an attack.

“Boom!”

The sky suddenly turned from sunny to gloomy, and dark clouds appeared.

In the next moment, more than 10 bolts of lightning fell from the sky. The speed of the lightning was extremely fast, and it carried an oppressive aura as it charged towards the village army in the blink of an eye.

Immediately after, the person on the back of the ferocious bird moved. He pressed his palms together, and the veins on his temples bulged as a powerful spiritual power burst out.

Just as the lightning was about to land, the ground shook and mud walls suddenly rose from the ground.

This was a simplified technique from the Reversal Palm divine power. It controlled the power of nature and created a mud wall that had a qualitative enhancement to its hardness. It was very difficult to break through quickly for those at the same level.

The moment the lightning landed in the formation, layers of earth walls surrounded it. Even the sky was sealed off, and a small lightning domain appeared inside. The lightning wreaked havoc like a dragon dancing around.

“It’s Jiang Yi from the military.”

Some warriors recognized the person standing on the back of the ferocious bird.

Jiang Yi had just made a name for himself. Before Chen Yiming explained the cultivation techniques simplified from divine powers, he couldn’t even be considered a top warrior.

However, the situation changed unpredictably. The cultivation technique based on the Reversal Palm divine power was unexpectedly compatible with him, and his cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds.

This was the purpose of Chen Yiming explaining the cultivation technique to the billions of humans from the blue planet for free.

Among the large number of people, there would always be someone who was very suitable for a certain cultivation technique and would achieve unimaginable progress.

In the future, when the population increased to tens or even hundreds of billions, there would definitely be more rising stars. It was even possible that a second god would be born among the humans from the blue planet.

“Amazing!”

Many martial arts school heads and the disciples at the warrior realm also saw the perfect cooperation between Jiang Yi and the ferocious bird.

Regardless of whether it achieved the desired effect, at the very least, he had grasped the timing, rhythm, and so on perfectly. He made full use of the way the village army was underestimating their opponent.

However, the shocking cooperation was not over.

Just as the village army was being attacked by the lightning in the sealed space, a wolf cavalry team leaped out of the forest.

The dire wolves spat out spinning white balls one after another. Each white ball could cut a mountain into pieces, tear through rivers, and break living creatures into pieces.

The spiritual power of the martial masters on the dire wolves’ backs soared into the sky. Meteorites were summoned and turned into a meteor shower that fell straight at the village army sealed by the mud walls.

“Are those villagers’ brains filled with muscles?”

In the next moment, something hilarious happened. The mud walls exploded in all directions. It was the villagers who had made a move. Rocks and dust flew everywhere.

However, it was equivalent to the villagers helping the enemy. They shattered the mud walls that had already become an obstacle, allowing the second wave of attacks to continue seamlessly.

“I’ve just been electrocuted to the point of numbness, and I’m about to scream from being burnt!”

Among the troops of the humans from the blue planet, most of the nervousness from before immediately dissipated.

So far, in terms of tactics, strategies, and planning, the villagers in the wilderness were far inferior to them. Furthermore, the trump cards of the humans from the blue planet had yet to be revealed.

Everyone saw young men and women in a sorry state among the villagers. Their hair had exploded from the electricity, and their bodies were charred black.

These young men and women were equivalent to the master realm on the blue planet. Although they were more talented than those of the same level, they had been suppressed.

Just as the villagers revealed shocked expressions, white spinning balls exploded in the team’s formation one after another. The terrifying tearing wind blades attacked all the villagers indiscriminately.

At the same time, a meteor shower of flames in the sky followed closely behind and smashed into the army of villagers. In an instant, the huge force created huge pits and shook the ground.

The young men and women from the villages were in trouble. They had just withstood the lightning storm and were covered in wounds from the sudden attack of the wind blades. Some of the young women’s clothes were torn up, and they quickly covered themselves with their hands.

However, the battlefield did not give anyone time to react. The meteor shower exploded, and flames wreaked havoc. The high temperature ignited everything around it, turning into a mountain of flames.

“It’s just some small tricks. It’s not bad to give the young people a little training.”

Among the villagers, Chairman Wang spoke up. It was unknown if he was finding an excuse for the ambush or if he was really planning to stand by and do nothing for the sake of training the young people through battle.

As for the adult villagers, only Jiang Yi’s sealing technique was enough to catch their attention.

They had to admit that he was indeed powerful, to the extent that he could fight someone of a higher level. It could be said that without the mud wall to restrain the village army, his subsequent attacks would not be effective.

Of course, the villagers would never have thought that Jiang Yi’s outstanding performance came from a simplified divine power.

Divine powers were usually exclusive to gods at the star evolution realm. Not to mention villages in the wilderness, it was rare even in the large cities around the restricted areas.

“The people from the abandoned world are indeed much stronger than the humans from the blue planet in terms of talent, even if they are from the weakest village-level factions.”

The military commander sighed when he saw that the well-coordinated ambush had only injured the young people from the village and had not killed anyone on the spot.

The difference was obvious. There was nothing they could fake. The strong were the strong, and the weak were the weak.

Before long, Chairman Wang gave the order. “Let’s deal with those annoying people first. Everyone, listen to my orders. The villagers will follow the village chiefs.”

“After dealing with those people, split up and surround the town. Don’t let anyone inside escape. The one who had the most kills will get the most loot after the battle.”

His words were filled with ruthlessness. Clearly, Chairman Wang had lost some face. After all, the team had been ambushed and many of the young men and women were injured.

In his expectations, they were weak outsiders who only had an advantage in numbers. This way, they should have been crushed by the village army and scattered all over the mountains. How could they dare to set up an ambush?

If they did not achieve a flawless victory, the army formed by dozens of villages would fall into chaos. After all, they had only gathered because they saw the chance of easily taking down the small town.

It could be said that everything was fine if it was a smooth-sailing battle. However, if they encountered a setback, the village chiefs would definitely prioritize preserving the strength of their villages. It would be hard to tell what would happen then.

“Kill! Kill! Kill!”

Chairman Wang’s words infuriated the group of young men and women.

If not for the village chiefs stopping them earlier, they would have taken the lead and charged out.

This was especially true for youths who were easily led by their emotions. Previously, some of them had chased after the reconnaissance teams of the humans from the blue planet like they were their prey.

However, they had fallen into an ambush today. The injuries on their bodies humiliated them. It was equivalent to the strong being provoked by the weak, but the provocation had actually succeeded.

“Charge!”

A young man holding a bone spear was half-naked, revealing a burly figure that was like that of an adult. He was the first to charge out with a ferocious expression.

Then, more young men and women were affected by the atmosphere, and under the lead of the first young man, they also rushed out without hesitation.

All of this was built on the fact that during the many conflicts between the two sides, the humans from the blue planet gave the villagers the feeling that they were weak. Their average cultivation level was far inferior to the villagers.

Finally, the adults from their villages followed behind to hold the line. Firstly, they really wanted to give the young men and women a chance to train. Secondly, they wanted to make a move at the critical moment. They could accept being injured, but they could not accept death.

“Boom!”

The young man in the lead waved his bone spear and pointed it at Jiang Yi, who was standing on the back of the ferocious bird.

A white bolt of lightning shot out. In midair, it split into two, then into four, and then into more than 100 lightning bolts. The number continued to increase to more than 1,000, and it covered the target like an electric net.

Compared to the lightning technique previously, whether it was the speed at which it was executed or the range of its attack, the difference was obvious. A large distance was instantly covered.

However, even so, there was no fear in Jiang Yi’s eyes. He clenched his fists, and the shadows of two huge palms appeared in the air at the same time.

In the next moment, the two huge palms pressed together. None of the lightning bolts could escape and they were all caught between the palms.

“Boom, boom, boom…”

A terrifying power of lightning erupted, and the huge palms exploded and shattered. However, the lightning was no longer able to pose a threat to the ferocious bird and Jiang Yi.

They were representatives from both factions. On the surface, the two of them were evenly matched, and it could not be said that either side had the upper hand.

The cultivation technique that Jiang Yi had mastered came from a divine power, which increased his combat strength among those of the same level. His talent was still not up to par to the standards of the abandoned world.

As for the young man taking the lead, he was one of the best fighters among the young people from dozens of villages. However, his cultivation method could not compare to Jiang Yi’s.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them were fighting again.

The young man from the village exerted strength from his feet and soared into the sky. He took the initiative to close the distance between them. The bone spear in his hand turned into an electric spear, and he did not hesitate to fight in midair.

Seeing this, Jiang Yi did not fight the other party head-on. Instead, he maintained a spiritual communication with the ferocious bird and adopted a strategy to deal with his opponent.

In reality, those at the master realm had just come into contact with the power of nature, and humans were not creatures that were innately good at flying. Fighting at a low altitude might not be a problem for them, but it was different high up in the sky.

With the help of the ferocious bird, Jiang Yi would be more agile than his opponent when fighting in such an environment. Sometimes, a small advantage could increase the chances of the battle being skewed towards one side.

Just as the battle was about to begin.

“Don’t panic. Wait for the order.”

In the face of the villagers’ attacks, the person in charge of the martial arts factions from the blue planet comforted the people below and suppressed the teams that had become a little chaotic.

The enemy was charging over the mountains. The aura of the army charging over assaulted them, and not everyone could remain calm.

They could either charge at them or retreat for the time being and wait for orders. It was like putting them on the grill.

“Get ready!”

The elite troops of the military were clearly much calmer than the martial arts factions.

The soldiers had trained for countless days and nights, and the troops would not fall into chaos and rely solely on their instincts. Everyone gripped their weapons tightly, and their muscles tensed up.

Preparation was preparation. This was to let the soldiers focus their attention to the maximum. They had yet to receive the order to counterattack.

At the same time, in the small town of humans from the blue planet, the spiritual figure representing Chen Yiming’s will and the three dragon gods in human form appeared in the camp.

The spiritual figure swept its gaze across the village and took in the general situation of the village army.

The strongest person in the village army was a human at the fusion realm. In comparison, the terrifying creatures at the fusion realm from the subsidiary races of the humans from the blue planet were not a match for him in a one-on-one fight.

The strength of the cultivation environment indeed created a natural difference. This was not something that they could compare to. The cultivation environment was too different.

However, even if the spiritual figure did not make a move, the humans from the blue planet still had three dragon gods to rely on.

Although the villagers were more talented than the humans from the blue planet, they were not strong enough to be on par with the gods, no matter how weak the gods were.

If the difference in strength between the power of the world and the power of nature was so simple, they would not have continued to stay in the village. They would have entered the city to join a powerful faction.

Soon, the spiritual figure nodded.

The three dragon gods in human form shot into the sky as three golden streams of light and returned to their dragon forms in the air.

The target of the dragon gods were those at the fusion realm in the village army, as well as the powerful figures in the inscription realm. After destroying them, the remaining forces would be left for the humans from the blue planet to practice actual combat.

“Roar! Roar! Roar!”

The roar of the dragon gods echoed throughout the area. The aura of the gods caused the sky to change color, as if it had opened its eyes in place of the will of the world.

The battle between the young man from the village and Jiang Yi immediately paled in comparison. The difference was too great. Both parties could also feel that their control over their strength had decreased.

This feeling was not an illusion, but a result of the huge difference in spiritual power. Even if the will of a god was not deliberately targeted at anyone, it could unintentionally affect a martial master.

Usually, a martial master would suddenly feel that their spiritual will was being suppressed by an invisible force. At this time, they would have to endure a huge amount of pressure while maintaining a resonance with the power of nature.

“Damn it!”

The young man from the village immediately decided to give up on fighting in the sky. Although the other party had also experienced a decrease in his control over his strength, he had the help of the ferocious bird that could fly.

At this moment, there was a huge turn of events in the battle between the two of them. Jiang Yi instantly had the upper hand.

“Kill!”

There was still a long distance to the ground. If the young man from the village wanted to go back down, Jiang Yi would naturally not let go of such an opportunity. He immediately decided to work together with the ferocious bird and get closer, choosing to fight his opponent in close combat.

Soon, the two of them descended from the sky. The young man from the village used the electric spear to target a landing spot, but Jiang Yi used the agility of the ferocious bird to hit him in the back several times.

The young man from the village spat out a few mouthfuls of blood. He was injured. The simplified divine power displayed its strength at this moment.

On the ground, after the villagers saw the three dragons appear, almost no one continued to charge forward.

The factions in the abandoned world usually needed a god to preside over them.

If not for the fact that the humans from the blue planet had been too weak during the conflict between the villages and the outsiders, these villages would not have dared to have the intention to wipe out the small town.

Now, they were dumbfounded. There was not just one god in the town, but three of them. What was going on?

The moment the village army sensed the dragons’ aura, their minds went blank. This was completely unexpected, and their feet stiffened.

However, time seemed to have stopped for a moment.

If the village army did not move, the three dragon gods would not hold back.

They spread out their wings and flapped them, instantly closing the distance between them and the village army.

In the next moment, the will of the gods turned into projections in the real world. The villagers at the fusion realm and the inscription realm flew into the air uncontrollably and were swallowed by the flying dragon gods.

In a few moments, the three dragon gods’ mission was over. It was just that simple to achieve a crushing victory. The enemy could not put up any resistance at all.

The villagers were so frightened that they fell to the ground one after another, and there was a short period of silence. This turn of events was too terrifying, and they felt the scythe of the god of death slashing down.

At the same time, the humans from the blue planet in the military, martial arts schools, and so on began to counterattack.

The powerful figures in the village army had all been killed by the dragon gods. The humans from the blue planet also had to make use of this huge victory to establish a deterrence within a radius of 1,000 kilometers or even further out.

Unlike the remaining villagers who had fled in all directions, the aura of the humans from the blue planet increased exponentially, crushing the other party in the forest.

Soon, the range of the battlefield expanded greatly. The humans from the blue planet also split up and chased after the enemy until they reached the end of the horizon.

After that, even though they were completely blocked off by the mountains and could no longer hear the sounds of the battle, the pursuit was still not over. It was also a rare experience for the humans from the blue planet.

If the humans from the blue planet wanted to completely adapt to the abandoned world, they could not rely on simple information or words. Instead, they had to expand their sphere of influence.

During their expansion, there would naturally be interactions, conflicts, wars, and so on with the local factions. Only then could they truly adapt to and become part of this world.
