Chapter 453: Chapter 251: Cutting off the Black Nether River, Thousands of Miles of Marshes
Translator: 549690339 |
Gazing from a distance at the ceaselessly surging, wave after wave, Black Nether River, Wei Zongcheng said in a detached tone, “The Profound Darkness Sect has really gone to great lengths. Not only have they utilized the aura of silence in this place, but they’ve also used the Black Nether River to create a natural chasm. I fear it will take some work for us to cross over.”
“A mere Black Nether River cannot possibly halt the march of my Demon Suppression Army,11 Zhang Wenyun said coldly, a chill flickering in his eyes.
Despite his words, when he looked at the Black Nether River, there was a faint sense of apprehension.
How could he not see that the Black Nether River harbored terrifying power? Any who approached would be met with an overwhelming fury.
Thus, it formed a natural chasm, halting the march of the Demon Suppression Army.
To breach this chasm, the Black Nether River would need to be cut off.
But there was a hidden barrier above it. Breaking it and then cutting off the Black Nether River would be no easy task.
The one who made Zhang Wenyun, who was among the top Earth-rank Demon Extermination Generals in the Far Suppression Legion, hesitate was undoubtedly a Golden Core Realm powerhouse. And not just one.
“They’re here.”
At this moment, from the rather dusty horizon, a rumbling could be heard as a series of massive warships slowly neared.
Seeing the squadrons of warships approaching, Lu Yun’s heart stirred.
The third army had arrived, albeit a bit late, but without delay.
The merging of the three armies of the Far Suppression Legion—an assembly larger and more numerous than before—carried an even heavier aura of war.
There was no doubt that they had undergone numerous battles along the way.
After half a day’s rest, at dawn the next day, a dazzling golden light erupted on the dusty horizon.
Dugu Yuan, the Heavenly-rank Demon Master, emerged from the golden light, releasing a powerful aura. The silent qi around him didn’t dare approach, instead scattering in fear.
Then, two more golden lights appeared. They were the other Heavenly-rank Demon Extermination Master, Dugu Yuan, and Master Changkong.
“Everyone prepare yourselves. The moment the natural chasm opens, charge right away. Break through all war barriers and slay all martial artists in the Profound Darkness Sect’s camp.”
Linghu Dao commanded in a cold voice.
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Linghu Dao no longer wasted time. He took a step forward, crossing the vast plain to float above the Black Nether River.
Just then, the Black Nether River seemed to respond to some sort of provocation. The already tumultuous surface of the river suddenly swelled with waves, each one taller than the last. The endless power within and the surge of water formed a flood dragon that rose and leaped toward Linghu Dao in the sky.
Azure waves roiled, and the dragon formed from the river was terrifying and fierce. Behind it followed columns of water shooting into the sky.
Only then did Lu Yun realize that the Array above the Black Nether River was not only for defense but also held offensive power.
The sudden burst of such powerful killing power made even him hesitant to approach, let alone the Earth-rank Demon Extermination Generals and Rune Seed Realm powerhouses.
Only a Golden Core Realm powerhouse could break such an Array, which mobilized the rolling Black Nether River and utilized most of the Silent Plain’s killing intent, resulting in such terrifying power.
Looking at the coiling flood dragon and the skyward water columns infused with infinite power, Linghu Dao’s eyes were as calm as water. Golden light swirled around him, and with a light stamp of his boot adorned with dragon patterns, ripples of gold emerged and then spread in all directions, forming a giant circular golden shield, which began to suppress the flood dragon and the skyward water columns below.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
After a fierce collision, the flood dragon and the water columns shattered, dissipating into nothingness.
However, this was met with a fiercer counterattack. The water of the entire Black Nether River seemed to churn, engulfing endless killing intent and hurtling towards Linghu Dao.
As the water swirled around Wei Zongcheng, Linghu Dao tried to suppress it when a voice sounded in his ears, “That’s enough. Let’s all work together and cut off this Black Nether River.”
Master Changkong suddenly appeared next to Linghu Dao. He reached out and drew a golden long sword from thin air, on which the Law Aura was circulating, swallowed radiant sword radiance, and embodied the power to destroy the heavens and the earth.
Next, Dugu Yuan also appeared in the sky over the Black Nether River where the boundless river swept towards him, but was blocked by his powerful golden light.
“Okay, let’s pool our strengths to cut off this river.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Linghu Dao stood still in the void, not moving a single step. However, out of nowhere, a war halberd appeared in his hand, which he slashed down towards the river below, and a dazzling light appeared, bringing down a roaring thunderous sound with it, as if a golden flood was pouring down.
This attack shattered countless flood dragons and suppressed the Black Nether River with terrifying power, causing waves of excitement among the Demon Suppression Army.
Immediately following this, Master Changkong and Dugu Yuan also made their move.
Master Changkong’s golden sword descended vehemently, releasing a sword radiance of tens of thousands of Zhang in an instant.
On the other side, Dugu Yuan made a shocking slash.
A sword and a blade, both possessing the power to tear the heavens and the earth, merged together, forming an even more powerful attack that roared down from the sky.
As their attack fell, the earth trembled fiercely. The Silent Plain erupted in roaring tremors, and the surging Black Nether River seemed to have been greatly stimulated.
At the same time, on the opposite side of the wide river, the Profound Darkness Sect’s Golden Core Realm powerhouse, Chang Fei, suddenly opened his tightly shut eyes.
