Chapter 872: Chapter 288: Exploding Eyeball
The oppressive alien army has already pressed down to the third battlefield’s warning line.
At the forefront of the army, Cang Ji sat on a huge chair, with his eyes closed, calmly resting.
In stark contrast to the grim army, Cang Ji seemed more like an emperor out on a tour.
Dong dong dong!
Dong dong dong!
Dong dong dong!
The urgent war drums continued to beat, as the alien army had been challenging for over half an hour.
Yet, the gates of the human fortress remained tightly shut, with no sign of engaging the battle, and above the fortress, dark clouds loomed, creating the illusion that the heavens were about to collapse.
Dong dong dong!
Dong dong dong!
The sound of the war drums grew louder, even causing the distant forest to sway under the resonance of the sound waves.
The war drums of the Yangxiang Race were made from the hide and fur of a certain beast, with their greatest advantage being the incredibly strong sound waves. Some first and second-grade Martial Artists could even foam at the mouth under the sound’s resonance, with some fainting directly.
"Lin Dongqi, you cowardly rat, come out and fight quickly!"
Standing by Cang Ji was a Ninth-Grade Divine Elder of the Steel Bone Race.
He was the strongman invited by Cang Ji to stabilize the formation, intended to deal with the reinforcements of the Divine Land.
This time, including Cang Ji, the alien coalition had four ninth-grades.
One from the Steel Bone Race.
Two from the Blood Boiling Race.
Because of Hua Taodie, Cang Ji was quite close to the Blood Boiling Race, even going all out to assist them.
Even within the Blood Boiling Race, Cang Ji held significant status.
With the humans and the Yangxiang Race at war, both sides were almost transparent in terms of intelligence.
The Zhao Qi Corps also had four ninth-grades.
Lin Dongqi.
Mo Qizheng from the Ministry of Justice of the Cabinet Office.
Bai Hui Sect’s newly promoted General of the Bianhan Corps.
Mu Jingliang of the Miracle Corps.
The Miracle Corps had just achieved a major victory, so Mu Jingliang could barely come to support for a battle.
But he couldn’t leave for too long, as no one could guarantee the safety of the northern battlefield.
"Lin Dongqi, are you really so cold-blooded that you don’t care about the lives of these seven fools?"
At this time, Cang Ji ordered the Seven Grandmasters of Divine Land to be brought to the front.
They were tortured beyond recognition, indescribably miserable, and Cang Ji had damaged their vocal cords so they couldn’t warn Lin Dongqi not to fall for the trap.
Unfortunately, they couldn’t utter a single word.
Unable to live, unable to die.
The seven grandmasters attempted to commit suicide countless times, but how could Cang Ji possibly allow it?
...
Inside the fortress!
In fact, the human army was already fully assembled.
The secret agents of the Divine Land had long gathered intelligence, such as the detailed numbers of grandmasters in the alien coalition. Although Zhao Qi Corps was short on manpower, other corps and governor’s mansions still managed to draw some forces during these busy times.
At least, in the high-level battlefield, humans and aliens could maintain a balance.
As for the low-level battlefield, in fact, the Divine Land even had more numbers than the alien coalition.
But unfortunately, because Cang Ji had the Tuyue Warriors under him, numbers didn’t result in an advantage.
This was also the reason why Cang Ji could destroy the Wet Ghost Tower.
A single Tuyue Warrior could intimidate dozens or even hundreds of Divine Land Martial Artists.
At the peak of the fifth grade, they would self-detonate upon arrival; this was simply unsolvable.
Creak!
Creak!
The Divine Land Martial Artists clenched their weapons tightly, their eyes bloodshot and filled with rage.
The alien coalition had been provoking outside the forbidden zone for too long; they could endure it no longer.
But the Grand General had not given the order, so they could only wait behind the city walls.
Although the alien coalition had Tuyue Warriors, the Divine Land Corps also had fearless warriors.
The Wet Ghost Tower being breached in past times was a shame for the Zhao Qi Corps.
This shame could not continue indefinitely.
This time, the Zhao Qi Corps vowed to defend the Wet Ghost Tower to the death, and not allow a single alien to set foot inside.
Lin Dongqi was not in the office; he stood alone at the top of the city wall, gazing at the endless alien coalition.
It’s difficult!
How difficult it was for the Divine Land to maintain the current situation.
A single Cang Ji rendered the Zhao Qi Corps helpless, which was so humiliating.
Cang Ji!
You truly deserve to die.
"General, this old man is ready and about to leave!"
Finally, the person Lin Dongqi was waiting for appeared.
He had been delaying engaging in battle, actually waiting for Yuan Xingzi.
The elder still had some preparations to make.
"Safe travels."
Lin Dongqi smiled.
"General, you go ahead, and wait for me on the path to hell, so you won’t be lonely."
Yuan Xingzi, even more emaciated than before, was now practically a living skeleton.
The once gentle smile on his face now made Yuan Xingzi look ghastly and terrifying, uglier than a ghost.
"Did Xu Baiyan agree to the plan?"
Lin Dongqi asked again.
"Cang Ji has been sending people to threaten her; once you die, she will go to Jing Niao City.
"Xu Baiyan still doesn’t quite believe it; he thinks Cang Ji can’t kill a ninth-grade. Only Su Qingfeng is Xu Baiyan’s weakness. If Cang Ji can kill you, Xu Baiyan will fear for Su Qingfeng’s safety and leave the Divine Land, otherwise, with Yao Chenqing secretly guarding her, she wouldn’t easily agree to conditions."
Yuan Xingzi shook his head.
"That’s good; Xu Baiyan is a crucial piece. As long as she’s willing to go to Jing Niao City, our plan will succeed."
Lin Dongqi smiled and nodded.
"No time to waste, this old man will go ahead first, see you in the next life!"
Although Yuan Xingzi was a Daoist, before leaving, he saluted Lin Dongqi with a corps salute,
"Safe travels, see you in the next life."
Lin Dongqi solemnly returned the salute.
Yuan Xingzi was a Martial Artist worthy of respect.
