Chapter 1086: Chapter 1086: Who Needs Pride? Call for Reinforcements!
The piercing pain surged, and my own aura followed in disarray.
At this moment, Hong Chen finally believed the fact that the vanguard had been completely wiped out.
With the Lifebound Divine Artifact in hand, he spun around and swung it fiercely, forcing Xiyue to retreat.
The gaze of Calamity was fixedly staring at the woman in front of Hong Chen.
How long has it been?
Back when Calamity headed to Blue Star, it was a complete Dimensional Reduction Strike. Even standing still for Xiyue to attack, she wasn’t qualified to harm it in the slightest.
Who would have thought in this encounter, the other party turned out to be a formidable enemy capable of threatening its life!
"Damn it, Calamity, you damn bird, why are you so cowardly? Can’t you see we’re in trouble here? Are you planning not to make a move? I’m telling you, the woman in front of us is no simple foe. If we don’t join forces, none of us will be able to leave; we’ll all die in this place."
Silver Wing looked at everything in front of him, his eyes filled with astonishment and confusion.
Astonishment, naturally due to the prowess displayed by these beings in front of him.
Confusion, because Hong Chen’s attitude left him baffled, making it all seem unreal.
From the day they met, Hong Chen and Beili had maintained an aloof demeanor, constantly showing their deep disdain for non-humans.
Before this, every time he saw Calamity and Silver Wing, there was a sense of contempt in his words and actions. Even though his words now were quite tactful, it was undeniable that Hong Chen was extending an invitation to team up with Calamity.
Once Silver Wing snapped back to reality, the Lifebound Divine Artifact—the Void Breaking Silver Bow—appeared in his hand.
Fingers hooked onto the bowstring, his well-defined arm muscles flexed with strength, pulling the Silver Bow taut, Divine Power automatically gathered, forming a powerful, resonant arrow.
The offensive stance was ready, only the target was missing.
Considering that open attacks are easy to dodge but hidden ones aren’t, his sudden entry into the battlefield counted as a surprise attack, making the initial assault quite crucial; he needed to choose a suitable target.
Xiyue and Sun Dachuan had already demonstrated formidable combat prowess; those not yet involved were Nangong Ling and Ao Shu.
Regarding Ao Shu, she appeared harmless, but for some reason, Silver Wing always felt a deep-seated fear when looking at her.
Nangong Ling was different.
She had been present for quite some time, seemingly ineffective.
Thinking of this, Silver Wing decisively picked Nangong Ling as his target.
He believed Nangong Ling was an easily manipulated target, but who would have thought her approach was equally ruthless.
The bow and arrow forged by Divine Power were released the instant the bowstring was let loose.
The piercing sound of air being split rang out, with the arrow turning into a stream of light, reaching just a few meters before Nangong Ling in the blink of an eye.
At this sight, Silver Wing felt an unexpected thrill.
By this time, Nangong Ling had yet to gather her technique, nor had she enveloped herself in Divine Power as armor. Wouldn’t this strike be directly effective?
Suddenly, nine colorful tails materialized around Nangong Ling out of thin air.
These translucent tails, in the instant before the Divine Power arrow was about to hit Nangong Ling, successfully entwined the arrow forged of Divine Power.
"You think you can sneak attack?"
A charming voice echoed, with a massive illusion of a nine-tailed fox rising abruptly, encompassing Nangong Ling entirely.
The Divine Power arrow, restrained by the nine tails, was easily crushed to fragments with a slight exertion from the nine-tailed fox.
When it comes to battle, Nangong Ling indeed is not very skilled, nor is her reaction speed quick.
Fortunately, her Martial Soul got along well with her, and Nangong Ling trusted her Martial Soul enough to let it gain the ability to actively protect its owner.
As a Divine Envoy, Silver Wing had extensive knowledge.
The abilities of Martial Souls were something he understood well too.
But he never dared to imagine that a Martial Soul could be so in tune with its owner to such an extent.
Still recovering from the shock, he was confronted with a petite and adorable figure.
Ao Shu moved quickly and accurately, directly seizing Silver Wing by the throat and, before he could react, rapidly plunged him downward, then slammed Silver Wing heavily onto the ground.
Bam!
The rubble mixed with blood and shattered bones scattered; Ao Shu had used great force, successfully rendering Silver Wing temporarily incapacitated.
Damn it! How could these humans be so powerful!
At that moment, Beili bit down hard, blood seeping between his teeth.
As a Divine Envoy, he had been running rampant in the mid-tier dimension for years, and no one dared to disrespect him like this before.
That blow from Ao Shu carried no regard for the All Celestial Divine Beings.
Defeat was inevitable.
The other three were one thing, but the strength Ao Shu showed was leagues ahead.
If Ao Shu became serious, the trio wouldn’t stand any chance.
Although Silver Wing had been crushed, as a Divine Envoy, an Elf, he wasn’t easy to kill off; it would take Ao Shu some time before she could thoroughly eliminate Silver Wing.
Brotherhood, teammates, all seemed trivial in the face of life and death.
At that moment, he just wanted to leave quickly.
"Hong Chen, and you coward Calamity, stop dawdling and help me stall them. I’ll send a message for reinforcements, have the higher-ups send support for us. If we want to escape alive, we must do our best!"
In that brief skirmish, Hong Chen had witnessed the opponent’s strength.
Despite not wanting to admit it, for his survival, he had to take things seriously.
But Calamity seemed not to have snapped out of it yet.
It had great belief in the cycle of the Celestial Dao and believed in fate.
From the first glance at Xiyue, it felt today’s encounter was no coincidence and that some price had to be paid, thinking meeting Xiyue was retribution for its invasion of Blue Star.
Luckily, after some contemplation, Calamity eventually came around, realizing that as an Upper-Rank God, it shouldn’t fall here.
Indeed, picking up its Bone Staff, it charged towards where Sun Dachuan was located.
At present, Nangong Ling and the other two had indeed gained some advantage, but regarding the Divine Power Level, none of the three had truly taken the lead, relying solely on the power of Martial Souls made it hard to kill opponents.
The advantage at hand didn’t continue to expand. After exchanging several moves, the three Divine Envoys, relying on their rich combat experience, gradually stabilized their formation.
Only when Ao Shu, with her relatively higher Divine Power Level, made a move, could effective strikes be achieved.
Regarding Beili’s intent to report upwards, Ao Shu did not interfere.
Watching your enemy fall into despair was a satisfying feeling.
After inputting the message in the communication device, Beili decisively chose to send it.
Clicking the send button several times, Beili stood dumbfounded.
What ghostly occurrence is this? Could the communication device’s button have malfunctioned? Was it damaged in the earlier fight? That can’t be right; I kept the communication device in my personal space, how could it have been hit?
Disbelievingly, Beili relayed the situation to Hong Chen.
