Chapter 229 - 229: “Battleship” (1)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Kui Yuan saw this situation, his heart sank. Kui Li and the others had entered the battlefield, so it would not be easy for them to retreat.
All the Phantom Horn race relied on their spirit bodies to float into the sky. Looking at the Forest race attacking the Mandrill race below, Phantom Maiden smiled.
The primary purpose of the Calamity Flag was to implant seeds within the bodies of the Forest race, enabling them to heed the commands of the flag’s owner.
“Kill them!”
Phantom Maiden waved the flag, and the Forest race attacked the Mandrill race like puppets.
Spiritual energy and willow branches flew on the battlefield.
Blood and lifeless bodies were mercilessly crushed underfoot.
Kui Yuan would not watch helplessly as the troops of the Mandrill race were buried in the hands of the Forest race.
“Mountain God’s blessings! Spirit of Myriad Mountains! Mandrill strength boost!”
Kui Yuan’s expression quickly turned serious as he whispered incantations. Upon the ground, a ripple of earthy hues started to encase the Mandrill race.
“Kill them!”
Kui Yuan took a heavy step and flew into the air.
The ground cracked.
“Mandrill Seal!”
As Kui Yuan ascended into the sky, his gaze fixated on Phantom Maiden. He harnessed a surge of spiritual energy to create an earthen-yellow square seal, directing it swiftly toward Phantom Maiden.
It was like a mountain of spiritual energy, and the pressure made the surrounding air buzz.
“Using divine arts right away?”
Phantom Maiden attempted to evade, but an oppressive force immobilized her.
She found herself completely ensnared within the seal.
“Spirit of Phantom Horn, Illusion!”
Phantom Maiden’s eyes flickered, and her entire spirit body appeared on the brink of fading into nothingness.
When the earthen-yellow seal landed, the few Phantom Horn race members around Phantom Maiden were killed on the spot.
As for Phantom Maiden, she relied on her illusory divine arts to temporarily avoid it. However, even though she had transformed into an illusory state, the inexplicable force landed on her.
Unfortunately, she was only a spirit body. Otherwise, she would have certainly coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood.
At that moment, on the battlefield, the eyes of a Mandrill race member lit up. Although he was resisting the surrounding Forest race, he was clearly different from the other Mandrill race members.
Its gaze was fixed on Kui Ba as if it was admiring a piece of art.
“Kui Ba has a rich bloodline. He can be said to be one of the royal bloodlines!”
As the Mandrill race member resisted the Forest race’s attack, he kept moving toward Kui Ba.
If one possessed sufficient royal bloodline, one would ascend the path to royalty.
For example, Kui Yuan was also part of the royal family. The royal family referred to a type of aptitude, not status.
“You’re mine!”
The Mandrill race member took out a small red umbrella. It had a deep, dark red hue, distinct from the crimson of blood.
“Myriad Soul Umbrella! Envelop Kui Ba!”
“If I retrieve his corpse, our Thousand Hands race can undoubtedly create the most ideal vessel.’
The true form of this “Mandrill race member” was nothing more than a vessel.
“I believe the lord can’t wait anymore!”
When he approached Kui Ba, he raised the red umbrella and a force enveloped Kui Ba’s body.
A powerful suction force kept pulling at Kui Ba, distracting him. He did not know why he was being pulled.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Being restrained, the willow branches took advantage of the situation and pierced three holes in Kui Ba’s chest.
Blood flowed out from the bloody holes in Kui Ba’s body.
“It’s worked!”
The Mandrill race member’s eyes lit up. Soon after, a large amount of spiritual energy was injected into the red umbrella.
In the blink of an eye, Kui Ba disappeared from the spot.
Not even Kui Li and Kui Wu knew that Kui Ba had disappeared from the battlefield.
Shortly after, the Mandrill race member retreated from the battlefield and headed into the distance.
No one had noticed this scene.
However, outside the battlefield, Xu Ding was hiding in a mountain with 20,000 Nine Howling Wolf Cavalry.
Coincidentally, Xu Ding saw this scene.
“That Mandrill race member.”
Xu Ding’s gaze landed on the Mandrill race member who had retreated from the battlefield.
As for the battle between Kui Yuan and Phantom Maiden in the sky, he no longer paid attention to it.
Kui Yuan relied on the power of shadows to temporarily suppress Phantom Maiden, but it was not so easy to kill her.
Furthermore, the black flag in Phantom Maiden’s hand was still controlling the Forest race on the battlefield.
“Go, follow that Mandrill race member.’
Xu Ding immediately decided to let a few Nine Howling Wolf Cavalry follow behind the strange Mandrill race member.
As for what he stood to gain, Xu Ding remained uncertain. Nevertheless, covertly capturing a Mandrill Clan general amid the battlefield’s turmoil hinted at his hidden schemes and strategies.
Kui Yuan and Phantom Maiden found themselves in a mutual standoff. Kui Yuan aimed to seize the black flag, yet his efforts proved futile.
On the battlefield, it had completely become a battle between the Forest race and the Mandrill race.
Ever since Kui Yuan led the 30,000 Mandrill race into the battlefield, the Forest race was no match for them.
Furthermore, not all the Forest race members had been planted with seeds.
A conflict unfolded with 100,000 Forest race members confronting 50,000 Mandrill race members along with additional Forest race members, turning the battlefield into a brutal massacre.
The ones who were slaughtered were the 100,000 Forest race members that Kui Yuan had brought.
“That’s all for today’s ceremony.. I will welcome the Mandrill race in Phantom City! “
