Chapter 484: Chapter 226: Wipe Out the Enemy Forces, Military Merits Credited! (Vote for Monthly Pass)
Outside Xiongma Pass.
The two armies were fiercely engaged in battle, with shouts and cries echoing deafeningly, and the battlefield filled with smoke.
Zhong Qiang was directing the battle array, clashing with the Earth Star Battle Array, but his control over the formation was far weaker than Xu Zhou’s.
Thus, faced with the enemy’s formation of three thousand men, the 23rd Brigade was being defeated repeatedly.
"Hold on!"
Zhong Qiang shouted loudly.
The more than four thousand martial artists of the 23rd Brigade were struggling to hold their ground.
In fact, with their strength continuing in such a manner, defeat was inevitable, but no one voiced any objections because they knew Zhong Qiang was waiting for Xu Zhou to appear!
However, as time continued to pass, the hearts of the 23rd Brigade grew ever heavier.
Zhong Qiang’s expression became increasingly worried: "Can Brother Xu really defeat Yan Di? That’s a powerhouse at the peak of the fifth grade."
Even Xia Liyue was growing more and more tense in her heart.
Although she knew Xu Zhou had previously defeated someone at the peak of the fifth grade.
But the peak of the fifth grade on Blue Star and the peak of the fifth-grade realm on Earth Star are not the same concept!
Moreover, against a prodigy of Yan Di’s caliber?
...
Within the Earth Star Battle Array.
Morty was directing the battle array, frowning secretly, "Why hasn’t Yan Di come out yet? Does it really take this long to deal with someone at the early fifth-grade realm?"
Kui Lei said, "That perverted Yan Di, even after defeating an enemy, he needs to toy with them before he kills them. He’s probably inside torturing that kid right now."
Saying this, he looked at the 23rd Brigade ahead, sneering, "These people are still hanging on here, probably holding onto some sliver of hope. But alas, inside the secret treasure ’Absolute Earth Heaven Communication’, the natives of Blue Star have no hope at all..."
Just as he said this, a wave of energy spread from the front.
Kui Lei’s eyes lit up: "It must be Yan Di coming out!"
Morty also looked over with interest.
But in that space, a figure slowly appeared, wearing a pitch-black robe and carrying a Dragon Flame long sword on his back.
"Brother Xu!"
Upon seeing that figure, Zhong Qiang couldn’t help but rejoice: "I knew you would come out!"
At the same time, Xia Liyue was relieved, a look of gratitude in her eyes.
The entire 23rd Brigade erupted, military morale soared, and momentum kept rising.
This is the effect of morale; when morale is united, it can substantially enhance the strength of the entire army!
And Xu Zhou had obviously become the "medium" to unite the morale.
Meanwhile, within the Earth Star Battle Array, Kui Lei’s face was full of disbelief: "How is it possible!? How could it be him who came out!?"
Morty squinted: "Did this person actually defeat Yan Di in the secret treasure space? How did he do it?"
It’s crucial to know that within the treasure space, Blue Star martial artists are suppressed to the greatest extent!
Under such circumstances, Yan Di was still defeated?
And Yan Di’s opponent was merely at the early fifth-grade?
But quickly, she couldn’t bother thinking about this, her face changing slightly: "No, the treasure is in his hands!"
...
In mid-air, as Xu Zhou stepped out of the secret treasure space, he found an object resembling a compass in his hand.
"So this is the treasure?"
Xu Zhou looked at the object in his hand, deep in thought.
"Return the treasure!"
At this moment, Morty shouted loudly.
Rumble!
The next moment, the Earth Star’s formation of three thousand men filled the air with murderous intent, condensing into a giant blood-red hand, reaching to seize Xu Zhou.
This was the Ancient Saint’s Hand, formed with the full effort of the three thousand strong formation, capable of capturing anything!
At this moment, under Morty’s command, the Earth Star formation was fully activated, its might several times greater than before.
Clearly, Morty intended to capture Xu Zhou in one fell swoop!
Xu Zhou immediately felt he could hardly move.
"Five Elements Divine Technique!"
His internal organs trembled, and the Five Elements Divine Skills burst out together, transforming into chaotic light that seemed to form a domain.
Within this domain, the Five Elements unified, the Yin Yang reversed, enveloping all things.
The blood-red hand reaching for Xu Zhou was momentarily blocked by the domain.
"What?"
Upon seeing this, Morty’s face finally showed undeniable astonishment.
Xu Zhou defeating Yan Di had already surprised her, but that could be attributed to Yan Di’s carelessness and overconfidence.
But now, she had gathered the full strength of the army and attacked with full force, even using the "Ancient Saint’s Hand," something that could suppress even a peak sixth-grade powerhouse!
Yet Xu Zhou could resist for a moment?
What kind of monster had emerged from Blue Star!
"Crack, crack, crack!"
Xu Zhou’s domain circulated around him, contending with the blood-red hand, emitting cracking sounds, as his domain was about to collapse.
"It’s a pity, my realm is too low. If I had already broken through to the sixth grade, I might be able to take on this entire array alone."
Xu Zhou shook his head and sighed.
Fortunately, this moment had allowed the 23rd Brigade to quickly respond.
Zhong Qiang let out a loud shout, and the 23rd Brigade’s formation condensed into a Grim Reaper’s Spear, shooting out with a boom, piercing through the blood-red hand.
"Collapse!"
The blood-red hand shattered into pieces.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xu Zhou swiftly transformed into a stream of light, returning to the formation of the 23rd Brigade.
"Brother Xu, you really worried us to death!"
As soon as Zhong Qiang saw him return, he immediately clasped his hand, filled with excitement.
Xia Liyue also quickly said: "Fortunately, we held on."
Xu Zhou smiled and said, "Now is not the time to talk about this. These Earth Star martial artists, none of them can be let go."
Hearing this, Zhong Qiang also nodded hurriedly.
In the next moment, Zhong Qiang quickly handed over the command of the formation to Xu Zhou.
With a shout from Xu Zhou, the entire army of the 23rd Brigade unleashed full power!
"Boom!"
A golden giant, a thousand meters tall, rose up from the ground, holding a Green Dragon Crescent Blade, pointing in the direction of the Earth Star Battle Array, roaring, "Kill!"
Buzz!
The world buzzed and quaked, the golden giant brandished the blade, angrily slashing towards the Earth Star Battle Array.
