The deep purple Douqi only spread three inches around his body, yet this seemingly thin layer of Douqi was enough to block all ining arrows.
What a terrifying existence a Zi rank Sorcerer is; aside from Faran, it was hard to find another magic powerhouse like Seventh Rank Zi rank Ye Yinzhu on the entire continent.
As they approached the Southern City Gate, the soldiers from Flore, Landias, and Popon became denser.
Yet, despite their ironclad defense line, without sufficient powerhouses leading them, they were destined to be destroyed by the mighty charge of the Amethyst Behemoth, War Behemoth, and Mountain Giant – the three Divine Beasts.
Even the Behemoth Beasts behind them found their opportunities for bat greatly reduced.
Ye Yinzhu had sent the Behemoth Beasts to fall back slightly to guard the Druids, together with the Grim Reaper Dragon Wolf Cavalry.
“Speed up, charge out,” Zi bellowed.
Once they got out of the city, wouldn’t it be as vast as the sea for the fish to leap, as boundless as the sky for the birds to fly?
Just then, Ye Yinzhu and the three Divine Beasts simultaneously raised their heads to look towards the Phaedra City Wall to the south.
At least five thousand Buddha Soldiers were densely arrayed atop the wall, and in front of them, more than fifty trebuchets capable of firing eight giant arrows simultaneously were positioned across the ramparts.
Even more terrifying were the twelve dark cannons between the enormous crossbow mechanisms, their muzzles pointing directly in their direction.
Ye Yinzhu had seen those Heavy Crossbows in Spirit City; the giant bolts could shoot a distance of twelve hundred meters, their piercing power capable of penetrating even Tower Shields.
He quickly calculated in his mind that among the forces of Qin City, only the Legion of Behemoth Beasts could remain unharmed under the simultaneous volley of those Heavy Crossbows.
Even the Grim Reaper Dragon Wolf Cavalry would struggle to emerge unscathed.
His eight fingers continued to play the zither, but a layer of fine cold sweat had already formed on Ye Yinzhu’s back.
As Hilton had said, the enemy was a nation, and how terrifying was the power of a nation?
If this trap had already been prepared, how could the people of Flore only have that one strong attack from the Dragon Knight?
What to do?
Ye Yinzhu’s brain quickly started to work.
If they turned back now, behind them awaited the tide-like alliance of the three nations.
Even for Divine Beasts, there was an end to their strength, and being besieged by an army of over a hundred thousand, it was clearly unrealistic to hope to break out of another city gate.
But if they just charged out like this, himself and the Divine Beasts, along with the Behemoth Giant Beasts, could indeed break out of the city, but what about the other Qin City Warriors?
Should they use the Horned Hawk Knights to suppress the enemies?
That was impossible.
With the range of the Heavy Crossbow reaching twelve hundred meters, it had already exceeded the reach of the Horned Hawk Knights.
Once hit by the Heavy Crossbow, the Horned Hawk Knights would likely face annihilation.
With a quick motion, his hands fell to the Zither strings and stopped playing.
Ye Yinzhu shouted loudly, “Zi, aid me.” He put away the Ancient Zither and rose into the air, starting to run on the back of Glacis.
With a final leap from the War Behemoth’s head, he soared into the sky.
Zi and Ye Yinzhu were in sync, and Zi was already rushing towards the enemies’ ramparts with maximum speed as Ye Yinzhu began his run.
As Ye Yinzhu ascended, Zi also leapt up, and when Ye Yinzhu reached the apex of his leap, Zi’s massive twenty-five-meter body was right below him.
Holding the Amethyst Great Sword in both hands, he positioned it horizontally as Ye Yinzhu’s body landed perfectly on the edge of the blade.
Zi bellowed, and with unparalleled strength in both arms and using the length of the Amethyst Great Sword, he flung Ye Yinzhu forward.
“Release the arrows, quickly, fire the cannons.
Hit them hard, we must not let those bastards from Qin City break out of the city,” echoed the enraged shouts of Buddha officers from the Southern ramparts of Phaedra City.
Forty of the crossbow mechanisms were raised almost simultaneously, and their target was none other than Ye Yinzhu alone.
A hum – amidst the intense tremor, a total of three hundred and twenty phantom images at a speed indiscernible to the naked eye almost instantly weaved a net in front of Ye Yinzhu that left him with no place to hide.
Even with his ability to change his shape in mid-air, he would still be hit by numerous Heavy Crossbow bolts.
Ye Yinzhu’s expression remained calm; as the crossbow strings sounded, he curled his body into a ball, exposing only his right hand, its wrist trembling rapidly.
A narrow sword with a dragon shape and black lines on its white surface drew countless swirling Bamboo Shadows in front of him.
Although the Heavy Crossbows were terrifying, they were crushed into dust when faced with the deep purple Zi Zhu Douqi, and Ye Yinzhu’s body also paused briefly under the impact of the Heavy Crossbows.
The gold and red wings on Ye Yinzhu’s back suddenly unfurled, and with a flap, he charged forward again.
It took time to rearm the heavy crossbows, and though the twelve Magic Crystal Cannons were terrifying, their intersecting fire wasn’t enough to affect the agile Ye Yinzhu.
In just a few blinks, Ye Yinzhu was less than three hundred meters from the city walls.
The Magic Crystal Cannons roared for the first time, and the entire top of Phaedra City’s wall was enveloped in a hazy magical glow.
Twelve dazzling beams of magical light were the first to spit forth, their target, of course, was not Ye Yinzhu but the vast, impossible-to-dodge War Behemoth Glacis.
These twelve Magic Crystal Cannons could be considered Flore’s trump card, specially transported from the City of Florence and hidden atop the walls to deal with Ye Yinzhu and his Qin City warriors.
Naturally, the prime target for these Magic Crystal Cannons was the War Behemoth Glacis that had caused Flore the most harm of Ye Yinzhu’s forces.
In the plans of King Delavalle and Prime Minister Dario of Flore, the seven Dragon Knights’ primary target was to entangle the other strong fighters of Qin City.
Surely, the people of Qin City would charge towards the city gate closest to them to break through, and the War Behemoth would obviously bee their vanguard.
Delavalle had no expectations that his soldiers could withstand the War Behemoth’s advance, but as long as they could lure it under this city wall, twelve heavy cannons were waiting for Glacis.
With a thunderous boom, twelve heavy cannons simultaneously spat out colorful magical flames.
Glacis indeed couldn’t dodge, and as twelve dazzling lights were about to hit, the War Behemoth also became enraged.
With an earth-shattering roar, a burst of milky white light suddenly exploded from the unicorn, spreading across its entire body in the blink of an eye.
The already might body seemed to grow even larger as muscles bulged beneath the tough skin.
With all four hooves exerting force, Glacis charged towards the direction of the Southern City Gate.
In the midst of the thunderous noise, Glacis’s body instantly turned into a colorful firework, seemingly exploding, with the tremendous shockwave throwing all members of the Alliances attempting to stop the Qin City warriors’ assault on the Southern City Gate into the air.
The immense smoke cloud almost pletely obscured the entire Southern City Gate, and the powerful shockwave knocked down houses in the vicinity.
The aftermath alone was parable to the War Trample that Glacis had previously unleashed.
Zi felt a sudden, intense tug at the Soul Fire of Glacis that she had harbored within the Spirit of the Sea, and before she could feel sorrow, the Soul Fire suddenly burnt even more fiercely.
A roar more powerful than any before suddenly erupted from within the smoke, and the immense War Behemoth Glacis unexpectedly rose to its feet.
At that moment, even the extremely tall Mountain Giant Ming next to him looked like a dwarf.
Glacis’s eyes had pletely turned blood red.
As he roared, strong milky white flames erupted all over his body, and the dust in the air seemed to quickly vanish upon contact with these white flames.
At this moment, Glacis had bee the focal point of the entire field.
“Fire again, quickly,” the Flore generals on the city walls ordered anxiously, seeing the situation turning in an unexpected direction.
However, despite the Magic Crystal Cannons’ terrifying power, they were time-consuming to reload.
The ammunition for the Magic Crystal Cannons were actually crystal stones.
For heavy cannons like these, at least the demon crystals of rank seven Magical Beasts or higher were required to be able to fire, and one crystal could only be fired once.
Although their power was far from parable to Qin City’s Cannon of Annihilation, in terms of sheer power, they were definitely not inferior to the magic guide cannons made with ordinary materials of Qin City.
The astonishing power also meant astonishing consumption.
Since a crystal could only fire once, it was necessary to change the magic crystal in the magic formation of the cannon after each shot, and this replacement naturally took time.
“War Art, Rage—War—Charge—Surge,” a ferocious voice echoed throughout the entire Phaedra City.
As the milky white flames burnt to their peak, the towering body of Glacis that had risen was no longer clear to see.
The raised upper body suddenly plunged forward, and in the next moment, all that remained in everyone’s vision was a swath of milky white light and shadow.
Indeed, with Glacis’s vast body, he actually created a trail of dazzling afterimages in that moment.
The milky white light was even stronger than the sun, and almost in the blink of an eye, the afterimage had disappeared from the location of Phaedra City’s Southern Gate.
Midair, Ye Yinzhu, who was preparing to attack the Magic Crystal Cannons and heavy crossbows below, suddenly sensed danger.
Simultaneously, he received a message from Zi in the depths of his soul telling him to dodge immediately.
Without any hesitation, he quickly flapped his golden red wings to ascend higher into the sky.
And from midair, he could clearly see the immense milky white figure seemingly pass through the city gate without any resistance, continuing to flicker until it was a kilometer away from the gate, with the speed and milky white glow gradually weakening.(To be continued, if you would like to know what happens next, please visit .
