Chapter 1768: Chapter 593: Holding the Pass Alone Against Ten Thousand
"A thousand years ago you got lucky and dodged calamity. This time, I’ll make you feel it again—the fear of Blood..." the Blood Commander said in a low, drifting voice.
The old woman of the Youlan Kingdom snorted coldly, her voice full of disdain. "Aetius, you’re nothing more than a coward who only knows how to hide in the shadows."
The Dwarf Legend of the Gray Mist Kingdom let out a shrill, mocking laugh and taunted, "A thousand years ago, I don’t know who it was that got beaten by a Demigod of the Human Empire so badly he was hugging his head and scrambling like a stray dog, crawling into the Blood Portal, afraid he’d be one step too slow."
"And now this wild dog has come out to howl again. How ridiculous."
Hearing this, the Demigod of the Bloody Army instantly darkened, a vicious killing intent flashing in his eyes!
"Very good. Since you’re all so desperate to die, I’ll just finish you off here in one go!"
As he spoke, he waved his hand casually.
All around, nine centurions of the Bloody Army closed in from different directions, completely surrounding them.
At this moment, the scales of War Power tipped once more.
The Bloody Army’s Nine Great Legends plus the two remaining Legends on the Watcher side made a total of eleven Legends.
On Cao Xing’s side, counting Isabell, there were only eight Legends!
More crucially, the enemy had two Demigods!
That was the decisive Power!
At this level, a single extra powerhouse could determine the outcome of an entire battle.
Meanwhile.
The Commander of the Bloody Army and the Watcher Leader had both fixed their sights on the Lizardman Clan Leader.
They seemed intent on eliminating all Demigods and Legends here in one sweep.
Battle was about to erupt!
"Crash!"
In an instant, Blood covered the entire Sky. The range was so vast that it directly spread down to contaminate the Giant City below as well.
Scarlet Blood poured down like Gale and Rain, the entire city seemingly soaked in a Sea of Blood.
The Watcher Leader warned from the side, "Stay sharp. There are still several million civilians in this city."
Hearing this, the Legendary Level experts of the Bloody Army appeared utterly unconcerned, continuing to unleash Blood Qi on their own.
Many civilians in the city, once tainted by this horrifying bloodwater, had their bodies melt in an instant and died in agony.
Seeing this, anger surfaced in the eyes of the Watcher Leader. "Did you not understand what I said?"
"Or are you planning to defy my orders?"
The Watcher Leader suddenly turned around, his icy gaze like a blade as it locked onto the Bloody Army’s group of Legendary Level experts!
The terrifying pressure caused Suffocation, as if even the Air had solidified.
Even those centurions of the Bloody Army couldn’t help but stop their movements.
This sudden turn of events left the Ice Crystal King and the others, who had been bracing for a great battle, utterly bewildered.
Were the Watchers and the Bloody Army about to start infighting?
Cao Xing, however, realized what was happening.
The Watchers prided themselves on being Guardians of the Human Clan, so they wouldn’t lay hands on ordinary people.
The Bloody Army was different—they were a mad, evil Legion from another world.
Their goal was to spread Blood across the entire Earth, turning all Life into Energy to activate the Blood Transmission Array.
However, the Watcher Leader seemed to possess some means of Control over them, so the Bloody Army had to obey his orders.
This was one of the reasons the Watchers had gone to any lengths to summon the Bloody Army.
Faced with the Watcher Leader’s rebuke, madness flickered in the eyes of those centurions of the Bloody Army.
They seemed very dissatisfied that this Human dared to command them.
Only when another Demigod Commander of the Bloody Army waved his hand did they relent. "Enough. Rein it in."
At the Commander’s order, these Watcher Legends finally restrained their Blood Qi, though the greed and killing intent in their eyes did not diminish in the slightest.
They gradually shifted their firepower onto the Old King and the others.
"Forget it. Let’s slaughter these guys first for a little appetizer."
"Haha! Exactly. Devouring a Legend makes for blood far richer than that of a few million ordinary people’s Blood Qi."
"Kill them!"
As the word fell, boundless Blood swept toward them in an instant.
And just then, Cao Xing’s voice rang out.
"Everyone, take your Potions!"
Hearing this, the Ice Crystal King, Queen Youlan, the Lizardman Clan Leader and the others all pulled out a vial of Potions.
Then they decisively poured them down their throats!
A strange Energy spread across the surface of their bodies.
The Power of Blood brushed over them, stirring up a layer of blood-colored secret marks, yet it caused no Damage at all.
On Cao Xing’s side, all the Legendary Level experts appeared to have complete Immunity to the various negative Curse Powers contained in the Blood; even its corrosion was fully blocked.
Seeing this, the Legends of the Bloody Army were bewildered.
"What... is going on?"
"Why isn’t our Curse Power working?"
Another Blood Legend seemed to recall something and cried out, "Those bastards just drank some kind of Potions—this must be the Potions’ Effect!"
"There’s actually a Potions specifically targeting our Power of Blood. Who developed it?"
The Old King and the others couldn’t even be bothered to answer.
These Potions, of course, had been given to them by Cao Xing.
Initially, everyone’s plan had been to directly destroy the Blood Portal and prevent the Bloody Army from descending.
But plans never keep up with accidents.
If they failed to stop it, Cao Xing had already prepared for the worst outcome in his heart.
