Zither Emperor Chapter 815 Chapter 259 Faran Army Part 2

815: Chapter 259: Faran Army (Part 2) 815: Chapter 259: Faran Army (Part 2) It had been three days since he left Faran, and the destination of this journey was nearly in sight.

Ever since he had killed Phil Jackson at that critical moment, it had been a long while since he had felt as tense and excited as he did now.

Indeed, Sloan had asked himself more than once whether disrupting Phil Jackson’s breakthrough to the God rank was right or wrong.

At the time, he had only one thought: to make himself more powerful.

Sloan always knew that his qualifications among the seven Tower Masters of his generation in Faran were not the best.

Not to mention pared to the Tower Master, Aubrey, even pared to the other five Tower Masters, he was considerably inferior.

Phil Jackson had spent his life immersed in the study of magic, and when choosing a disciple, he didn’t have much time to choose, selecting Sloan simply because he saw that he cultivated diligently.

The cultivation of Dark Demon Magic was inherently more difficult than other types of magic.

A Dark Demon Sect genius as exceptionally talented as Phil Jackson might not appear even once in a thousand years.

When Sloan first became Phil Jackson’s successor, he cultivated desperately every day.

However, as time passed, he unwillingly discovered that despite cultivating harder than anyone, his strength still lagged behind the other six Tower Masters’ successors.

Phil Jackson naturally noticed this problem too, but at the time, he was busy seeking a method to break through to the Sub-God rank.

He simply told Sloan that diligence could make up for his lack of skill and then focused more of his thoughts on his own cultivation.

He did not realize that from that moment on, Sloan’s heart had begun to change.

Although Sloan’s talent was inferior to that of other Tower Masters’ successors, he had an ambition that the others did not possess.

And he had always concealed it very well.

Phil Jackson’s entire life was devoted to the study of magic, but he explored human nature far too little.

He never held anything back in his teachings to his disciple.

Even now, Sloan vividly remembered when Phil Jackson told him that everyone was bound by their own hearts.

No matter how powerful a mage, they are enslaved by two sovereigns.

If one loses these two sovereigns, then they can no longer be called human.

These two sovereigns were morals and conscience.

Sloan knew that the moment he released magic against Phil Jackson, the two sovereigns that loomed over his head had disappeared.

At that time, all he wanted was Phil Jackson’s Soul Bead.

He knew that only by doing this could his strength quickly rise to catch up with the other Tower Masters’ successors.

However, when Sloan truly acplished this, he discovered that his heart had bee empty.

For at least ten whole years, he had been enduring torment.

But he could not turn back the time.

In the later years, Sloan kept thinking that if his teacher had truly bee a deity, then perhaps he could have gained more.

But what was done was done, and there was no such thing as a pill for regret in this world.

Knowing he was on the wrong path, he could only continue walking it.

Neither Ye Yinzhu nor Phil Jackson knew how significant the shock was to Sloan when Phil Jackson’s spirit suddenly appeared in Landias’ Imperial City and ignited the Soul Fire.

It was an indescribable panic.

To make this panic disappear, to calm his heart once again, Sloan wanted to do only one thing: pletely erase everything related to this panic from the world.

Phil Jackson was truly dead, but his successor was still alive.

No matter what, Sloan couldn’t let Ye Yinzhu and Qin City go.

He would choke off everything and ensure the secret of Phil Jackson’s death by his hand remained buried forever.

Therefore, in this operation, Sloan did not invite other Tower Masters to join; instead, he alone led Faran’s Army away from Faran’s borders and headed towards Qin City.

He was absolutely confident in Faran’s strength, despite being pushed back by Ye Yinzhu once, even though his strength had not yet recovered to its peak.

But what he understood even more clearly was that Ye Yinzhu would not be able to bring out another soul of Phil Jackson to ignite.

“Master, there are three hundred miles left to Qin City,” a sultry voice interrupted Sloan’s contemplations.

A breathtaking beauty riding a Black Unicorn flew from afar and only stopped upon reaching Sloan.

“An Qi, relay my orders.

The entire army is to land and activate the summoning formation,” Sloan manded coldly.

An Qi nodded slightly and turned away.

Once known as the Elf Queen, she was now merely a pawn in Sloan’s hands.

But what else could she do?

Her heart was already hidden deep, and she was merely Sloan’s puppet.

High above, two of Faran’s legions slowly descended to the ground.

This time, Sloan had not brought several legions from Faran to Qin City as Milan had to relay intelligence.

Only two flying legions were present.

Among Faran’s Twelve Legions of Holy Paladins, only these two could perform long-distance flights—the Legions of Pegasus Knights and the Magic Eagle Knight Legion.

However, the strength Sloan brought from Faran was naturally not that simple.

The two knight legions prised twenty thousand men, and on the backs of these knights’ mounts, there were also three thousand Mages handpicked by Sloan.

As is feared by all the nations of the Continent, the number of Mages that Faran possessed was unmatched even by the bined forces of the Eight Continent Countries.

All three thousand of these Mages held at least Green rank, with over five hundred Blue rank Mages, and even included fifty entire Grand Sorcerers of Zi rank.

The sheer magnitude of this magical power was enough to flatten any nation.

Moreover, the twenty thousand warriors of Faran’s two Holy Paladin Legions possessed terrifying bat abilities, absolute pure Douqi fighting groups.

Especially the Pegasus Knights, ranked third among Faran’s Twelve Legions of Holy Paladins.

All their mounts were Seventh Rank Pegasus.

Under the lead of Gerard, the Holy Pegasus Knight, these Faran knights could instill fear in any nation.

The most formidable weapon of a Pegasus was its wings.

As High-rank Wind Attribute Magical Beasts, their ability to manipulate wind was extremely strong.

Their wings were not only for flying, but also served as the most advantageous weapons for stirring the Wind Element.

At least Green rank strength was possessed by Faran’s Pegasus Knights.

Previously, during the match between the Seven Kingdoms, Seven Dragons, and Milan’s representatives, it was Gerard who led the Legions of Pegasus Knights with their elite of the Green rank.

Two knight groups rapidly descended to the ground, and the mages dismounted and began busily setting up a magical formation under An Qi’s mand.

Although Sloan was eager to destroy Qin City and Ye Yinzhu, he was by no means an impatient man.

He had made ample preparations for this operation.

Although the strength he brought directly was already formidable, that was not all.

Soon, twenty large teleportation arrays had been set up.

Ye Yinzhu had underestimated Faran’s strength.

Although Faran lacked advanced technology like teleportation portals, the powerful mages of Faran could achieve short-term teleportation by setting up magical arrays.

Although these arrays could not be reused, they were sufficient for rapid deployment.

To avoid giving Qin City time to prepare, Sloan had deliberately brought the two fastest flying knight groups.

Only upon nearing Qin City did he unleash all his strength.

The strength of Faran’s army was clearly evident from their formation.

After the two knight groups landed, they quickly formed a perfect defensive formation, protecting the mages within so that they could set up the formation without any worries.

“Master, everything is ready,” An Qi returned to Sloan’s side and respectfully reported to him.

Sloan waved his hand, saying, “Begin.

Tell Gerard to send out scouts to check on Qin City’s situation, and have the other knights rest here.”

“Yes.”

The teleportation began, acpanied by a deep chanting.

The twenty giant magical arrays simultaneously lit up with a silver glow, and not long after, when the arrays were fully activated, formidable Faran knights began stepping out of the arrays and joining Sloan’s army.

In two hours’ time, a total of forty thousand Faran knights had emerged from the teleportation formations, making up the real force of Sloan’s assault on Qin City.

Six legions, six full legions of Faran’s warriors, half of their fighting force, appeared on this land merely three hundred li from Qin City.

Their formidable presence caused all living beings within tens of li to retreat rapidly.

Sloan was not in a hurry.

As the Faran knights gradually emerged from the teleportation formations, a rare smile appeared on his magically young face.

With six fully organized Faran knight groups, although only sixty thousand in number, their fearsome fighting strength was unmatched by any force on the continent.

To Sloan, Qin City was already non-existent.

As the teleportation ended and the arrays vanished, the exhausted Spatial Mages began to rest on the spot.

Once their rest was over, it would be time for Sloan to advance.

“Master Sloan,” Gerard, the Holy Pegasus Knight, approached Sloan on his towering Ninth Rank Golden Pegasus.

“Sir Gerard, is there any movement in Qin City?”

Gerard replied gravely, “It is very quiet, strangely quiet.”

Sloan smirked coldly, “Quiet, is it?

After today, Qin City will forever remain quiet.

Have you spotted the Behemoth Beast?”

At this remark, An Qi standing behind Sloan shuddered involuntarily, as the image of Zi flashed silently across her mind.

Bowing her head, her body began to tremble uncontrollably as she silently prayed.

Oh heavens!

Please let him not be in Qin City; I am willing to trade my life for his safety.

Meanwhile, inside Qin City, all the higher-ups had gathered within the Ancient Tree of the Elf Tribe, observing the perimeter through the Full-Scale Monitoring Control System.

Anya furrowed her brows, “Has Yin Zhu not returned yet?”

Supreme Elder Wei Ming shook his head, “I don’t know where he has gone.

Let’s hope he makes it back in time.

Faran’s scouts have already appeared; we don’t have much time left.

Miss Anya, everything is ready now; the overall situation here must rely on us without Yin Zhu.”

—————–

What did Yin Zhu go off to do?

Hehe.

Please look forward to the climax of the great battle with Faran in episode 38.
