The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2585: Chapter 2585: All-Out Slaughter

As the black silk rain disappeared, the guardian array of Hongmeng City became like a sponge.

One-third of the formations, severely damaged, could no longer operate.

The Taiyin Annihilation Spear only launched one Drumming Soul Stealing, yet the damage to Hongmeng City’s big array reached this level. It shows how terrifying the Emperor Weapon is.

Although the buildings inside Hongmeng City were protected by the city’s array and had their own formations, some still collapsed directly under the strong impact.

The impact of Drumming Soul Stealing was too strong.

Inside the city, some cultivators were even shaken to death directly by the shock force.

"Kill!" Yama Palace Master Yu Hentian raised the Taiyin Annihilation Spear and shouted again.

The alliance army behind him, with a large number of Immortal Venerable powerhouses and even more Immortal Rhythm Peak cultivators, surged towards Hongmeng City like a tide.

The comprehensive battle began at this moment.

Countless strong people frantically mobilized their divine power, rushing toward the front of Hongmeng City. The stronger Immortal Venerable powerhouses led the charge, brandishing their magic treasures aggressively. Among each faction, there was a leading powerhouse as a banner figure, a top-tier Immortal Venerable Peak powerhouse.

Yu Hentian himself, along with the leaders of various forces, stayed in place. These giants were absorbing energy resources like Black Crystal Stone to continuously replenish energy for the Taiyin Annihilation Spear. The immense power of an Emperor Weapon is matched by its equally immense consumption. For Immortal Venerates, an Emperor Weapon cannot be continuously used, as they lack the ability. If an Immortal Venerate could continuously unleash the power of an Emperor Weapon, theoretically, they could destroy an entire Heavenly Domain with it.

"Soul cultivators, prepare!" Jing Yan commanded steadily, gazing at the tide-like advancing army.

"Yes!" Five hundred white-robed soul cultivators responded in unison.

The five hundred white-robed soul cultivators were divided into five teams, each led by a captain like Ding Hong. The captains, all soul cultivators of the Immortal Venerate realm, possessed immensely formidable divine soul body attack abilities. The five soul cultivator teams quickly dispersed to five stronghold points, forming an arc-shaped defensive line for Hongmeng City. The soul cultivators possessed long-range attack capabilities, so they would be the first to launch attacks on the enemy. They would attempt to annihilate as many enemies as possible.

"Yiming!" Jing Yan shouted again.

"Here!" Xu Yiming stepped out from the crowd.

"Thunder Warrior army, prepare. The Thunder Warriors must break out of the city and engage the enemy in close combat outside the city. Yiming, control the situation as best as you can," Jing Yan instructed while looking at Xu Yiming.

"Rest assured, City Lord!" Xu Yiming responded, then turned and left.

Immediately, numerous Thunder Warriors emerged from the buildings. High-level Thunder Warriors were in front, with ordinary Thunder Warriors at the back. The high-level Thunder Warriors were separated from the ordinary ones.

Shortly afterward, Xu Yiming led the Thunder Warriors out of the city to engage in combat. The target of the high-level Thunder Warriors was the Immortal Venerable Peak strongmen among the enemy, while the ordinary Thunder Warriors primarily attacked relatively weaker enemies.

"Sect Master Lan Zan, Chairman Meng Kun, the other two sides of Hongmeng City are up to you now." Jing Yan looked at Grandmaster Lan Zan and President Meng Kun.

"Rest assured, City Lord Jing Yan, my Golden Toad Commerce will certainly do our utmost to help Hongmeng City defeat the Yama Palace alliance army," Meng Kun said.

"City Lord Jing Yan, I’ll leave the right side of the city’s defense to the Tianbei Sect!" After saying so, Grandmaster Lan Zan waved his hand and flew to the city’s right side with many of Tianbei Sect’s powerhouses.

After distributing the defensive tasks on Hongmeng City’s side, the densely packed enemy cultivators had already approached Hongmeng City.

"Divine Soul Annihilation!"

The white-robed soul cultivators, Ding Hong, and the other five captains led their respective soul cultivator teams to launch the first attack on the enemy.

The soul cultivators wielded divine soul magical treasures or ordinary magic treasures, fully deploying soul technique attacks.

Amidst the dense enemy army, countless cultivators immediately fell from the sky. However, the enemy numbers were too vast, and although many relatively weaker cultivators were directly annihilated, their divine souls slain and falling from the air, at a glance, there seemed to be no visible reduction in the enemy’s numbers.

"To think Hongmeng City has so many soul cultivators? This Hongmeng City is indeed surprising!" said a person from Hanqiu Mansion, sounding a bit astonished.

"It truly is peculiar; these soul cultivators are real soul cultivators, not just for show. Having these five hundred soul cultivators makes Hongmeng City not to be underestimated. How did this Jing Yan manage to gather so many soul cultivators? Cultivating a soul cultivator and giving them combat power is no simple task," another Hanqiu Mansion person commented.

"Jing Yan came to Kunling Heaven from Faro Heaven. It’s said that he visited Nightmare City while in Faro Heaven. Perhaps he obtained some method in Nightmare City that allows him to cultivate soul cultivators," one person squinted their eyes.

"Tsk tsk... coming to Thunder Domain this time indeed feels eye-opening. Truth be told, I’ve never seen such a scene of so many soul cultivators in action before. In this short time, the Yama Palace’s side has probably had thousands of cultivators killed, with their divine souls annihilated, right?" An older-looking person smirked, eyes gleaming.

While these seven people from Hanqiu Mansion were talking, the Thunder Warriors had already flown out of Hongmeng City. In the middle of the Thunder Warriors was Xu Yiming, and within close proximity to him were two Thunder Warriors designated to ensure his safety.

The ordinary Thunder Warriors first rushed toward the enemy army. At a glance, one could see that the Thunder Warriors moved in a very orderly fashion. Upon contact with the Yama Palace alliance army cultivators, they simultaneously swung their weapons, slashing at the opponent. A full ten thousand ordinary Thunder Warriors, with one round of slashing, killed hundreds of the Yama Palace’s cultivators.

And the Thunder Warriors attack with very quick frequency; after one sweep, the second wave rapidly began. Tens of thousands of ordinary Thunder Warriors formed ten battle formations, charging around outside Hongmeng City. The Thunder Warriors’ strong defensive capabilities made them hard to destroy. On the Yama Palace side, only the top-tier Immortal Venerable Peak powerhouses might take down an ordinary Thunder Warrior with one strike. The weaker cultivators, even after repeatedly hitting ordinary Thunder Warriors, only managed to knock them away. The Thunder Warriors quickly rejoined the battle.

"Die for me!" Xu Yiming’s eyes locked onto a top-notch Immortal Venerable Peak powerhouse from the Tianji Trading House, an elder-level figure.

This person was frantically attacking the big array of Hongmeng City, occasionally knocking nearby ordinary Thunder Warriors out of the air with his Double-headed Trident.
