Chapter 1846: Starlight Reciprocation
Under the effect of the Invulnerability Mist, the abyssal creatures underwent a second evolution, and this was even more violent than the first. All of the abyssal creatures had become completely unrecognizable following their second evolutions, but their powers had received yet another enormous boost.
Of course, such extreme measures naturally incurred an extreme price, and all of these abyssal creatures would only be able to last five minutes at most before perishing.
Under normal circumstances, the Abyssal Spirit Dragon naturally wouldn’t have gone to such an extreme, but as a member of one the most intelligent abyssal creature species, its judgment was extremely astute.
The attacks raining down from the sky were destroying the abyssal creatures with ease despite the presence of the Invulnerability Mist, and it immediately knew that this was not a favorable matchup. This was definitely a very powerful group of human reinforcements, and under these circumstances, it had chosen to prioritize self-preservation over continuing to attack this mountain.
It wasn’t the case that all abyssal creatures didn’t fear death. To put it in simpler terms, the more intelligent any living being was, the more they would cherish their own life.
Thus, after spreading this second wave of Invulnerability Mist all over the battlefield, the Abyssal Spirit Dragon instantly entered its stealth state and vanished on the spot.
Right at this moment, a figure descended from above, crashing heavily onto the ground the instant after the Abyssal Spirit Dragon vanished.
“Boom!”
Devastating explosive power intermingled with an extremely sharp aura reduced all of the mutating abyssal creatures within a radius of several hundred meters into dust.
As the dust settled, a figure emerged; it was none other than Saber God Douluo Sima Jinchi!
“What a quick little rascal!” Sima Jinchi harrumphed coldly. His target was none other than that Abyssal Spirit Dragon, but it was too cunning, completely concealing its aura under the Invulnerability Mist to help it escape.
In a one-on-one battle, perhaps it would’ve been able to keep Sima Jinchi at bay, but there were more powerful beings arriving.
Wu Zhangkong had unleashed a flurry of ice swords with his Skyfrost Sword, and he was now hovering in mid-air, appraising the entire battlefield.
They had arrived on the battlefield with the mecha squadron of the Tang Sect, while Long Yeyue and the other Limit Douluos had gone to the Spirit Pagoda side, assisting them in facing the powerful abyssal emperors and sovereigns.
Even Wu Zhangkong had been stunned by the sight of attacks unleashed by the Tang Sect’s black mechas; the lasers that they had shot out of their eyes were simply devastating!
Right at this moment, the sky suddenly darkened, and bright stars began to appear up above.
Streaks of vibrant starlight descended from the heavens, encompassing a large section of the battlefield.
Even the Invulnerability Mist was unable to keep out the starlight, and there was no need to lock onto any targets as the starlight was shining down over a large area. As a result, the abyssal army down below was instantly plunged into chaos.
Following their second evolutions, the abyssal creatures had become immensely powerful, but they had also been driven to insanity and would instinctively slaughter everything around them until the remaining five minutes of their lives ran out.
As the starlight illuminated their bodies, they completely lost their sense of direction, and instead of charging forward, they began to stumble around in all directions. As soon as the abyssal creatures bumped into one another, their slaughter instincts would take over.
A massive mutated six-clawed bat had just torn through a Ba’an’s eyes, and in retaliation, the Ba’an furiously tore the six-clawed bat to shreds. However, during this process, a piece of the six-clawed bat’s body struck a nearby Demonic Enchantress, which instantly severed the Ba’an’s neck in a fit of fury.
Similar scenarios were taking place throughout the area illuminated by the starlight, and the abyssal army was plunged into a state of complete chaos and violent bloodshed.
Wu Zhangkong waved a hand through the air, and said, “Leave everything here to the Tang Sect’s mechas; we have to reinforce the Battle God Hall!”
They were constantly being informed of the situation on all parts of the battlefield through their soul communicators, and at this moment, the most important section of the battlefield was the one where the Battle Gods were fighting.
Only in that area had the abyssal creatures already rushed through the second defensive line and was currently attacking the third one.
Under the protection of the Hornet Sovereign and the three Spirit Dragon Kings, the abyssal creatures had been able to inflict heavy losses upon the human army.
Leaving the Tang Sect’s mechas behind to mop up the battlefield here, Wu Zhangkong led his elite group toward the Battle Gods.
At this point, the battlefield over at the Battle Gods’ side was already extremely chaotic.
The three Abyssal Spirit Dragon Kings were still gathered together, posing immense problems for the Battle Gods with their powerful spiritual disruption and control abilities.
Furthermore, all of the abyssal creatures on the battlefield had been enhanced to an incredible degree under their control. Among this branch of the abyssal army was a large number of high-tier abyssal creatures, including Black Empresses, Demonic Enchantresses, Evil Sickles, and six Guardian Longhorned Beetles.
Just a single cloud of Invulnerability Mist released by the Abyssal Spirit Dragon Kings was able to elevate the powers of these high-tier abyssal creatures to be close to the level of abyssal emperors.
The Battle Gods were also very formidable, but all of them had to constantly be on their guard against spiritual disruption from the Abyssal Spirit Dragon Kings. Their immense spiritual power would often temporarily stun the Battle Gods, in which case they would only be able to rely on the defenses of their battle armor and assistance from their allies to keep them safe.
Both sides seemed to be evenly matched, but this wasn’t what the Battle Gods wanted; they had to defeat their opponents as quickly as possible to prevent the abyssal army from advancing further outward.
The third defensive line had already raised the alarm, and a large number of troops were already being sent there for reinforcement.
However, there were over 10 Abyssal Spirit Dragons here, and with their presence, the situation was looking extremely dire. An opening was about to appear at any moment now.
Currently, the three Spirit Dragon Kings were having an even greater effect than the Spirit Sovereign as they were dominating the entire battlefield.
Wu Zhangkong, Sima Jinchi, Lan Muzi, Tang Yinmeng, and Shrek’s Six Monsters were rushing to the scene as quickly as they could.
From the sky above, it was virtually impossible to see anything as everything was concealed under dense Invulnerability Mist, thereby preventing them from tracking down the Abyssal Spirit Dragon Kings.
“What do we do, Zhangkong?” Lan Muzi asked.
Wu Zhangkong cast his gaze toward the third defensive line, then looked down at the battle raging down below, and a decisive look appeared in his eyes. “We reinforce the defensive line; I’m confident that the Battle God Hall will be able to hold on.”
The battle between Guan Yue and the Black Sovereign had already reached white-hot intensity, and overall, Guan Yue held a slight upper hand, displaying his quasigod level combat prowess to perfection. If he could end his battle and assist the other Battle Gods, then the situation on this battlefield would still be quite stable.
The most important thing was that the third defensive line had to remain strong no matter what. Otherwise, disaster would follow.
“Alright,” Lan Muzi replied without any hesitation.
At a time like this, there could only be one governing voice in a group; only then would there be perfect unity and cohesion.
Thus, after a brief delay, the group immediately flew toward the third defensive line.
However, a massive swarm of Abyssal Bomber Hornets suddenly detached itself from the main swarm and began to fly toward them.
“I’ll take them on!” Tang Yinmeng yelled, and in the next instant, soundwaves carrying a rhythmic melody were already surging through the air.
The Abyssal Bomber Hornets were like ignited fireworks, exploding en masse in the sky.
