Chapter 2214 God descends
In an effort to repel the enemy, they had already tried everything from mountain-moving techniques to wave-riding techniques, and even attempted to use magic to divert the waters of Immortal Spirit Lake to flood the Panlong Army, but to little avail.
General Hong had anticipated that the enemy's wide-ranging supernatural abilities here were limited to water and earth. Whether it was altering the terrain or diverting water, the Panlong Army had corresponding supernatural formations to deal with them, and they used them swiftly.
As the spiritual energy of heaven and earth revives, individuals and groups can unleash more and more supernatural abilities, with ever-increasing power. A significant portion of these abilities have been incorporated into the military, forming new supernatural battle formations and offensive and defensive strategies.
Modern armies not only have to charge and fight off the enemy, but also have to use and deal with all sorts of supernatural abilities.
The nature of warfare has returned to that of the Middle Ages, placing higher demands on armies.
But compared to the Middle Ages, there is another huge change in the present day:
Yuanli!
The strength and effect of the elemental force have both improved compared to before.
The sorcerers in Wu Xianxian's army also joined forces to summon dozens of stone-skinned giants, but these summoned creatures were essentially supernatural beings, and they suffered greatly against the Yuan power of the Panlong army.
The stone skin that an ordinary stonemason couldn't break even with a broken hammer could be pierced by arrows shot by the Panlong Army soldiers!
The most direct and effective way to reverse the current unfavorable situation is to pray for divine intervention. Wu Xianxian's request was not high; he only needed to reverse the decline slightly so that the Bega army could deal with the situation with ease.
Before long, three streaks of light appeared in the cloud-covered sky, heading towards Fairy Spirit Lake.
Hu Min, quick-witted and agile, pointed to the sky: "General, there is an unusual phenomenon in the sky!"
He Lingchuan glanced up and said, "A divine descent."
He glanced questioningly at General Hong, who understood and shook his head.
The one who came was not Mi Tian.
Oh, it's either Mitian or the deity descending from the other side. And to invite three at once, Wu Xianxian is quite decisive.
Whistles sounded one after another in the Panlong Army, all reminding the soldiers that the enemy's divine intervention was about to occur.
The Bega Army and the Panlong Army had fought a great battle before and had even summoned a god, so the Panlong warriors' reaction was not one of panic.
First, the enemy's divine descent is merely an avatar, and its power is limited;
Secondly, the Yuan power is no longer what it used to be; it now has a restraining effect on both divine power and immortal techniques.
However, in such a small battlefield, having to fight three divine beings at once is indeed quite difficult.
He Lingchuan's gaze swept over the two fierce generals behind General Hong, Shi Chonghui and Miao Qing, pointed to the light spots descending from the sky, and then made a gesture.
Shi Chonghui had just been wounded in the shoulder by an arrow and had just been bandaged.
The two were clearly startled by the gesture, exchanged a glance, and then nodded to He Lingchuan.
Both of them were veterans of the Great Wind Army, having fought countless battles alongside General Hong. They were utterly loyal to Panlong City and held high prestige within the army. He Lingchuan had served in the Great Wind Army for a long time and was extremely familiar with the two of them. They had not only sparred privately but also frequently fought side by side.
Before the Panlong Army set off for Xiluo, Zhong Shengguang, on He Lingchuan's advice, summoned the two of them for a secret meeting.
The content was also very concise: the true form of Mitian was about to descend and devour General Hong himself in the lower realm. At that time, the battlefield would be in chaos. Therefore, Zhong Shengguang asked them to cooperate with He Lingchuan to stabilize the morale of the Dafeng Army.
As core members of the Great Wind Army, the two were well aware of the relationship between Mitian and Panlong City, and between Mitian and General Hong. Moreover, this was a personal order from the King, and soldiers should take obedience as their primary duty. Therefore, they agreed without hesitation.
Their loyalty was to General Hong and Panlongcheng, not to Mitian.
The number of people who know this secret must be very small to avoid leaks. These two individuals were carefully selected by Zhong Shengguang and He Lingchuan; they are highly respected, of impeccable character, and extremely loyal, which is why they dared to entrust this task to them.
Even General Red was kept in the dark about this order.
He Lingchuan had agreed on a secret signal with them; once they saw the gesture, they knew what to do.
Three beams of light flew down and struck the couple and the iron cage beside them, respectively.
The soldiers nearby quickly lifted the cover and opened the cage door.
Only then did onlookers realize that what was locked in the cage was not a human, but a humanoid monster, as thin as a dried corpse, with skin and bones, short upper limbs and long lower limbs, walking upright, but with purplish-green skin and a sharp horn on its forehead.
When it grins, it reveals a mouthful of sharp teeth.
Xu Shichu was standing right next to He Lingchuan, watching from afar: "What the hell is that?"
“It’s some kind of ghost,” He Lingchuan guessed. “It might be the offspring of the Jindu Ghost Mother.”
According to the intelligence Dong Rui brought back from the Thousand-Eyed Cave, any cub of the Jindu Ghost Mother that takes human form is a perfect template for divine intervention. He Lingchuan's first impression of this ugly and ferocious aura was that of a Jindu Ghost Child.
As if some celestial demon had descended upon it, the gaze of the Jindu Ghost Cub changed, transforming from ferocious to chilling. It stopped smashing the cage and strode out, shaking its entire body.
Immediately afterwards, its back split open, and two more arms grew out!
Its posture was somewhat similar to the previous versions of the Ghost Ape, but the latter's arms had a beautiful symmetrical shape; this monster's arms, however, were of different lengths.
It snatched a rapier and a light shield from the soldier, and its hands behind its back were equipped with a long meteor chain.
With a swift movement, the little devil from Jindu created several clones, let out a long howl, and led the Bega army in a breakout.
Its combat skills were formidable; even the seasoned warriors of the Great Wind Army were no match for it. The meteor chains behind it struck, smashed, and swung with pinpoint accuracy, even deflecting several arrows aimed at its back. In particular, when this thing was swung out, it could sweep across a large area, forcing everyone to dodge, because the force it exerted was beyond the withstand of any single warrior.
He Lingchuan had encountered many divine descents, but most of the demons that had descended before used divine arts. This was the first time he had seen such a purely physical battle. However, it was undeniable that with Yuan power restraining divine power, combat techniques were indeed more effective than divine arts on such a battlefield.
General Red spurred his horse forward and commanded two armies to surround it. If it managed to create an opening, the separated Bega army would seize the opportunity to regroup, increasing the difficulty of their own battle.
With General Hong taking action, He Lingchuan turned his attention to the other Heavenly Demons.
Another beam of rainbow light flew down and landed on the man.
Just a few breaths later, he silently exploded into a cloud of red mist.
Hu Min was stunned: "This?"
Was it because the physical body couldn't withstand the power of the gods, that it exploded?
This is not without precedent. After all, the strength of each physical body is inherently different, and the strength of the descending demonic soul is also different, so they may not be compatible.
But it exploded before it was even fired, which is not rigorous, not rigorous at all.
As the evening breeze blew, the red mist slowly disappeared.
He Lingchuan, who was watching from a distance, immediately realized that this did not resemble blood mist.
