Chapter 351: Chapter 336: Sorrow (Part 1)
The number of strong fighters from the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion held an absolute advantage, and the kings of the Dark Holy Banquet could not break through the front line, only able to watch Wang Xu roam the battlefield, slaying the Black Smoke Puppets.
One by one, the Black Smoke Puppets fell, and large swathes of the Dark Holy Banquet army died, causing the people of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion to cheer jubilantly.
Inside the Teleportation Hall.
"Is the Teleportation Array set up?"
The stunning Su You no longer appeared angelic, with flaming red lips, disheveled black hair, and scarlet eyes; she now looked like a devil, graceful and tempting!
Beside Su You were nine Teleportation Arrays emitting a faint blue light.
Transcendence Arrays.
This was Zhan Bai’s plan, and also Su You’s main task to execute.
They had already been prepared before the war, using the battlefield broken by the void to allow the Teleportation Array to directly bypass the constraints of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion and reach the outside world.
"Lord Su, the nine Transcendence Arrays have all been deployed." reported the subordinates.
"Good, immediately activate the array resonance!"
Upon Su You’s command, the nine Grand Teleportation Arrays emitted a slight trembling sound, resembling swords violently vibrating.
"Array resonance! The Saint Venerable has begun the battle!"
The Array Guardians of the Desolate Fire Cosmic Country noticed the Teleportation Array’s trembling and immediately called out to the three kings responsible for guarding, as well as a hidden law seat.
Swoosh!
A silhouette of black light, one of the three law seats of the Dark Holy Banquet, arrived swiftly upon hearing the news. Detecting the tremble of the Teleportation Array, it immediately spoke, the voice spreading throughout the cosmos via a special array.
"All disciples of the Dark Holy Banquet, prepare to gather in the Desolate Fire Cosmic Country immediately!"
The various kings waging war across the cosmos, along with the army of the Dark Holy Banquet and those from the Dark Affiliated Countries allied to them, all chose to pause the war and withdraw.
"They’ve retreated... they’ve really retreated!"
The loyal, bloodied national soldiers saw this and were moved to tears. When they observed the army of the Dark Holy Banquet retreating like a tide, they all cheered with joy.
"Wonderful! Heaven protects our country, heaven protects our country!"
Numerous Cosmic Countries that were about to fall to the Dark Holy Banquet cried out in lamentation.
Wow! Wow! Wow!
Countless rays of light emanated from various places in the Desolate Fire Cosmic Country, with the surging army of the Dark Holy Banquet and the kings gathered in front of the Teleportation Array.
Within just ten minutes, the warfaring kings had led their armies back entirely.
"It’s time, activate the Teleportation Array!"
The Array Masters formed mysterious Hand Seals, and the trembling sound from the Teleportation Array became softer, until it was almost inaudible.
But soon, a blinding burst of light erupted instantly!
"Follow me in everyone!"
The black light law seat was the first to step into the light.
The kings followed closely, entering the light, their figures vanishing from sight, as the Dark Holy Banquet army marched in unison with murderous intent.
........
"Life-signs have appeared!"
"The newcomers are powerful, definitely not benevolent!"
"The Heaven-Reaching Pavilion has long been sealed, who could breach the spatial blockade and enter?"
Numerous super strong individuals in the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion perceived the intense aura emerging within the Teleportation Hall.
"Su You greets the law seat."
The beautiful Su You kneeled on one knee, welcoming a silhouette of black light that emerged from the Teleportation Array.
"The war has begun, let me confront the Supreme Elders of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion!"
The black light law seat shook its black robe, its figure instantly entering the battlefield, standing beside two other law seats.
"Haha! Black Light, you vile fellow, you’ve finally arrived!"
"Be cautious, the four Supreme Elders on the other side are formidable, we’ve battled them for half the day and haven’t gained any advantage!"
The two law seat powerhouses laughed heartily, causing the four Supreme Elders of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion to have grim expressions.
As they mentioned, although both were Billion Era Celestial Gods, the four Supreme Elders couldn’t firmly suppress the two law seat powerhouses, indicating the strength of these Billion Era Celestial Gods of the Dark Holy Banquet.
The appearance of the black light law seat made it even more challenging for the four Supreme Elders.
But they had no time to think, no matter how strong the opponent, they had to fight, for all that lay behind them was a cliff, and there was no way back!
Rumble!
The battle between the Supreme Elders and the law seats erupted, shaking the heavens and earth as they fought directly in the space-time rift.
Meanwhile—
"What’s happening! More Black Smoke Puppets have appeared!"
"There are quite a few, over twenty!"
"Damn, where did the Dark Holy Banquet recruit so many?"
Over twenty Black Smoke Puppets emerged from the Teleportation Hall, and that was not all of them, as more Black Smoke Puppets continued to stream out from the Teleportation Hall.
As soon as these Black Smoke Puppets appeared, they immediately joined the battlefield, overturning the situation that was initially in favor of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion.
Wang Xu glanced coldly at the Black Smoke Puppets, through the smoky shells he saw the army of the Dark Holy Banquet inside.
Within the army, many did not originally belong to the Dark Holy Banquet, but were from the Dark Affiliated Countries.
"The Teleportation Hall... So that’s it, that’s the reason Zhan Bai was lurking in the Teleportation Hall!"
Zhan Bai’s control of the Teleportation Array and study of the Transcendent Array were not for use before the war, but to deliver the most fatal blow to the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion during the war!
It was known to all that wars involving the Eternal Generations Celestial Gods would cause void collapses, turning the battlefield directly into a space-time storm zone.
The space barrier will become increasingly weaker, until it’s weakened to a certain extent, the Transcendent Array can be utilized.
Just like now.
Once the Transcendent Array is activated, the army enslaved outside by the Dark Holy Banquet, along with those from the Dark Affiliated Countries, will all enter this war.
"No wonder Zhan Bai is so fearless, daring to confront the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion with such combat power, he had long planned this!"
Wang Xu saw through all of Zhan Bai’s plans.
"Constantly creating Black Smoke Puppets, attempting to overwhelm the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion by sheer numbers? Dream on!"
Wang Xu’s gaze was cold, his expression filled with a madness for slaughter!
No matter how many come from the Dark Holy Banquet, their fate is only one word.
Death!
Once the Black Smoke Puppets joined the fight, their numbers immediately equaled the Heaven-Reaching Puppets, and even increased as more Black Smoke Puppets emerged from the Teleportation Hall, causing many Heaven-Reaching Puppets to struggle.
"Kill!"
Wang Xu transformed into a ghost, roaming the battlefield, striking down any Black Smoke Puppet he encountered with the Golden Stone Slash without hesitation.
Slice—
This time, the Black Smoke Puppets were even more fragile. Wang Xu’s slash pierced through the black smoke shell, penetrating inside.
"No! Spare me!"
"Please, let us go, we’re innocent!"
"We were forced, please don’t kill us!"
This Black Smoke Puppet was weak, as the Core Member was only an apex Initial Celestial God Realm, with the energy army comprising solely people from the Dark Affiliated Countries.
The uneven strength naturally resulted in inadequate combat power for the Black Smoke Puppets.
"No matter who you are, the moment you step onto the battlefield, you are no longer ’innocent’!"
Wang Xu showed no mercy, ruthlessly stirring inside the Black Smoke Puppet, shattering it completely.
Hundreds of thousands of troops from the Dark Affiliated Countries all fell into the time-space storm, turning to dust.
"Keep killing!"
There were many Black Smoke Puppets, and they kept multiplying.
The Dark Holy Banquet accumulated such a vast number of Super Cosmic Countries and Immortal Cosmic Countries to endlessly provide materials for the Black Smoke Puppets.
Zhan Bai’s plan was indeed strong, the massive quantity of Black Smoke Puppets was enough to crush seventy-two Heaven-Reaching Puppets and sweep away the Hall Masters of the seventy-two Sub-Halls.
Then, engage the four Supreme Elders in an attrition wheel war, and the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion would no longer be able to hold.
The ideal was perfect, but reality harshly struck Zhan Bai.
Wang Xu’s sudden emergence terrified the Black Smoke Puppets, no matter how tough and powerful, under the Golden Stone Slash, two arms could be severed.
As the combat power weakened, the Black Smoke Puppets could no longer defeat the Heaven-Reaching Puppets, only be suppressed and crushed to death.
The production speed of Black Smoke Puppets was fast, but it couldn’t match Wang Xu’s kill speed.
"Poorly made things, after all, are only superficial."
Wang Xu cleaved another Black Smoke Puppet open, tens of thousands of troops from the Dark Holy Banquet again became ghosts under the time-space storm.
If it were any other Sub-Hall, facing these Black Smoke Puppets might still be very arduous.
But Wang Xu was different, his unique Attack Secret Technique, coupled with his strength far above his own realm, easily surpassed what the Black Smoke Puppets could handle.
The Black Smoke Puppets appearing later couldn’t withstand even a single strike from him.
On the battlefield, everyone was fighting madly, each exerting every effort to kill the opponent.
Wang Xu again shattered two Black Smoke Puppets, furrowing his brows.
"Endless, endless. How many Cosmic Countries has Zhan Bai actually roped in?"
No matter how many Black Smoke Puppets Wang Xu killed, they fearlessly charged out, seemingly indifferent to their lives.
This suicidal warfare method raised doubts in Wang Xu’s mind.
Zhan Bai roped in so many Cosmic Countries to use them as cannon fodder, what’s his purpose?
Why doesn’t Zhan Bai attack the Cosmic Alliance? The Cosmic Alliance is much weaker than the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion. With such means, he could easily take down the Cosmic Alliance.
What does Zhan Bai ultimately want?
While slaughtering Black Smoke Puppets, Wang Xu’s brain was racing.
"Wang Xu, enter the Teleportation Hall and destroy the Teleportation Array!"
Suddenly, Lu Chen transmitted to Wang Xu, "As long as the Grand Teleportation Array isn’t destroyed, Black Smoke Puppet production will never stop, only dragging out the war."
Dragging out the war!
Wang Xu seemed to have realized something. Zhan Bai was doing this to delay the war, but why delay the war?
"Alright, I’m entering the Teleportation Hall now!"
After Wang Xu responded, he stepped on the Golden Lotus Sword Seal, seventy-two Golden Swords carrying Wang Xu near-instantaneously towards the Teleportation Hall.
"Stop him!"
The various kings detected Wang Xu’s intention and started to intervene to stop him.
"Let him in, we’ll handle them!"
The Hall Masters of the seventy-two Sub-Halls all burned their Divine Country, willingly paying such a price to give Wang Xu the chance to enter the Teleportation Hall.
They had long identified the problem but were helpless due to the kings’ obstruction, now Wang Xu’s appearance placed him in a vacuum state without obstruction, perfectly fitting for entry into the Teleportation Hall.
"Go!"
Wang Xu bypassed the kings’ blockade, using the Golden Stone Saber to fend off numerous attacks, his figure constantly approaching the Teleportation Hall. (To be continued.
