Chapter 29: Chapter 29 - Charging Ahead_1
Under the leadership of Lu Qianfu, the thirty thousand warriors of the Shwu army were invincible, erupting with astonishing combat power. Every minute, thousands of ferocious beasts were killed. These beasts, though threating, had no tactics and relied solely on numbers, charging madly in all directions.
Against the well-equipped Shwu army, they were naturally overwhelmed.
"What a ferocious Shwu Army! It exudes ev more sharpness than the army of the previous Emperor!"
All the civil and military officials could see thirty thousand soldiers simultaneously striking their fists, executing the Military Fist Technique. Their fearful vigor was like ts of thousands of people beating war drums at the same time. It was spirit-stirring and heart-throbbing, but to the beasts, it was a bloody and brutal slaughter.
"How is it possible that thirty thousand m could be more formidable than my battalion?!
Geral Wan Lianji, who was leading the Qiongqi army to resist the beast tide, was also startled. His Qionqi army had to be careful in hunting on the peripheral, but the Shwu army charged directly, like a long spear piercing the heart, killing far more beasts than them.
"Kill!"
At this point, Wan Lianji\'s competitive spirit was also aroused, unwilling to fall behind.
"It looks like this beast tide is not a threat, I originally thought that Shwu was lost, but unexpectedly, Shwu\'s power reappeared. Our Dawu nation\'s luck is still thriving."
"Yes, His Majesty is wise. This is a sage who can truly curb the torrt!"
"Ev if the four nations form an alliance, they absolutely cannot break through my Dawu\'s strong barrier!"
...
As the beast tide gradually stabilized, the civil and military officials at the sce also calmed down, gaged in discussions. Some who were absolutely loyal to Dawu couldn\'t help but rejoice. They had be living in gloom for the past few months.
If Dawu perishes, where would they go?
They were unlike the Prime Minister and others who had already found an escape plan.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
At this momt, from within the Beast Mountain Range, sky-shaking roars erupted. A monstrous aura swept over from all directions, as thousands of terrifying beast demons with varied appearances charged out.
"Original Spirit Realm beast demons!"
There were hardly any beast demons above the Original Spirit Realm in the previous beast tide, which was terrifying ough with its sheer numbers.
"Divine Realm beast demons as well!"
The g and sky vibrated like rippling water, as hundreds of terrifying forces of Divine Abilities rolled in. Among the beast tide were hundreds of differt races of Divine Realm beast demons, their eyes gleaming with human-like intelligce, indicating remarkable wisdom.
Upon reaching the Original Spirit Realm, beasts can unlock wisdom, and wh they reach the Divine Realm, their wisdom is ev stronger than ordinary humans.
"How could there be so many Divine Realm beast demons?!"
Wan Lianji was the first to be startled.
Having fought against the beast tide multiple times, he knew that there might be a powerful beast emperor behind this tide. Otherwise, so many beast demons wouldn\'t arrive at the same time. He instantly broke out in a cold sweat.
With hundreds of Divine beings, thousands of Original Spirits plus millions from the beast tide, this terrifying force could completely shatter them.
"Capture and kill the Emperor of Dawu!"
At the same time, beastly kings amongst the beasts issued orders. They were exploiting this imperial hunt to launch the beast tide, with the aim of destroying all the civil and military officials of Dawu, killing their emperor, and directly invading the Imperial City.
Once the Imperial City is seized, the one billion citizs of Dawu would all become their food.
"We\'re in trouble now!"
Wan Lianji\'s face turned extremely grim. He had never se so many Divine Realm beast demons before, but it was obviously not the right time to retreat. Hce, he shouted, "I request His Majesty to retreat and defd the Imperial City! My Qiongqi army of 5,000 soldiers will die trying to stop the beast tide!"
"The more ferocious the beast tide comes, the better!"
But a glint of excitemt flashed in Wei Sh\'s eyes.
The million-strong Forbidd Army was an important defsive force of the imperial capital, and this beast tide was extremely ferocious. Ev if they manage to hold out, the Forbidd Army would be severely wounded.
Ev better if they can\'t hold it off, Chu Yuan would be forced to relocate the capital, which would further exacerbate the situation. He could th seize the opportunity to liaise with King Wei and launch an ambush, taking control of the Dawu royal family.
"Pass on the command, attack!"
Chu Yuan seemed unperturbed by the onslaught of the beast tide, raising his hand slightly.
"The Emperor has ordered, attack!"
A thunderous shout echoed as Lu Qian led thirty thousand troops into the fray, swirling into the tide like a ferocious dragon, striking hard.
All of them carried injury-healing pills concocted by Chu Yuan. Despite their effects paled in comparison to that of a beginner\'s healing potion, they can preserve their lives as long as they wer\'t killed immediately, embolding the charges.
"Attack! Fight to the death without retreating!"
Out of options, upon seeing Chu Yuan\'s refusal to retreat, Wan Lianji could only grit his teeth. He had to hold his g until the three vicious camps hurried over to stabilize the situation.
Yet, if such a beast tide consisted only of a million creatures, it wouldn\'t be much of a concern. But the presce of thousands of original spirit beasts and hundreds of divine realm beings posed a huge threat. Once they charged forward, the elite soldiers would not be able to resist.
"My ministers, the previous emperor built his city on the Millions Beast Mountain Range to protect it with his own flesh and blood against the beasts. For the sake of the common people in the capital, we cannot allow the beasts to break through our lines and wreak havoc in the city."
Chu Yuan\'s gaze turned cold. "I will lead the charge!"
Chu Yuan knew that at this momt, as an emperor, he needed to set an example. If he retreated, their morale would certainly suffer a blow.
In the presce of hundreds of scholars and nobles, including the Grand Geral and Li Yun, two pillars of the divine realm, Chu Yuan was not expecting them to be of much help.
Shang Guan Qing Yun and Li Yun would certainly love to see the army swallowed by the beast tide.
"Great Devouring Technique!"
Like a beacon of smoke, Chu Yuan plunged into the battlefield in one grand stride. His palm flickered with the dark ergy of devouring. In an instant, he stood before a massive barbarian elephant. As he laid his hand on its head, the life force of the beast rapidly dissipated at a visible rate.
"The emperor of Dawu, Chu Yuan!"
"How dare he single-handedly dive into the beast tide. Who does he think he is, Chu Yi?"
"Kill him, kill the new rulers of Dawu!"
"Better not to kill him, capture him alive!"
The hundreds of divine realm beasts seeing Chu Yuan charging towards them, uttered human words. Their goal was not merely to break through the Forbidd Army, but also to capture or kill those emperors.
"Human, you\'re too audacious!"
A sharp roar sounded as a silver wolf rose into the sky. With cultivation reaching the fourth level of the divine realm, it was far more formidable than the Gold Feathered Hawk that Chu Yuan previously killed. Its eyes emitted a faint gre glow.
"Not that I\'m brave, but you can\'t make me fear!"
Chu Yuan stood in the sky, like the true supreme being of m.
"Big talker. If you\'d stayed within the million-strong army, we\'d have some difficulty capturing you. But now that you\'re here, it\'s time for me to taste human flesh, emperor. Let\'s see what makes you differt from the rest!"
The silver wolf was vicious. As it oped its mouth, a silver beam burst forth.
"Ultimate Battle Technique, Sev Battle Forms, Attack!"
Chu Yuan\'s expression remained unchanged, his fighting spirit soared high as he charged forth like a War Saint. Combining the sev forms into one, it surged mightily, overturning heav and earth. In an instant, he\'s in front of the silver wolf.
He blasted the beam with one punch, th his fist directly landed inside the wolf\'s mouth, forcefully piercing through.
Boom! The silver wolf fell dead from the sky, its body hit the g with a thud!
