Grinding EXP From a Demon Hunting Ship
Chapter 183: Tier 3 Battle, the City Wall is in Peril
Late at night.
RUMBLE!
An earth-shattering fluctuation of Spiritual Power swept through the entire city!
Countless cultivators were jolted from their meditation and sleep by this terrifying wave!
"What’s going on..."
On the deck of the Ghostly Flood Dragon, Su Ye’s gaze hardened as he looked toward the city gates.
Suddenly, his pupils contracted in surprise.
In the direction of the city gates, the bright moonlight, like silver frost, spilled onto the ground, casting a faint glow!
It was, to be honest, quite beautiful.
However... after the Beast Tide erupted, the Nine Nether Blood Sea Array had been active day and night as a precaution...
The entire Weiyuan Immortal City was supposed to be enveloped beneath a crimson, bloody canopy!
So where was this moonlight coming from?!
’The Nine Nether Blood Sea Array... is broken?’ Su Ye raised an eyebrow.
’What is Weiyuan Immortal City doing?!’
’How could a quasi-Tier-4 Array just break like that?’
’Are they kidding me?’
After a moment of thought, an azure light surged in his eyes.
He enhanced his vision with Magical Power!
At the same time, Su Ye used his Magical Power to manipulate the air, polishing it into several transparent lenses.
He augmented his sight with this handmade super-telescope.
The scene at the city gates, dozens of miles away, appeared before his eyes!
He could clearly see that near the city entrance, a canopy of blood-red light still existed.
Su Ye rubbed his nose, his expression a strange mix of relief and something else.
’The City Defense Array isn’t broken...’
However, the situation was far from optimistic.
The crimson canopy had been drastically weakened for some unknown reason, fading to a pale red that could barely block the moonlight!
What was worse, the array patterns on the city walls were dim and lifeless!
’The core of the Array is damaged, or... there’s a problem with the Spiritual Power Pool?’
Su Ye made an educated guess based on his expertise as an Array Master.
He raised an eyebrow, recalling the earlier earth-shattering Spiritual Power fluctuation that had rocked the whole city!
’Damn... it couldn’t be... the Spiritual Power Pool exploded, could it?’ The corner of Su Ye’s mouth twitched.
It was highly likely!
In any case, whatever the reason, the power of the Array on the city walls was severely diminished, with barely a tenth of its strength remaining!
And this led to a very serious consequence!
The Sea of Blood Arrows had gone silent!
The Beast Tide wouldn’t be so polite!
With the Sea of Blood Arrows silent, they naturally didn’t hesitate to intensify their assault on the city walls!
The area near the city gates was receiving ’special attention’, showing signs of being overwhelmed by the relentless charge of the Beast Tide!
Some demon beasts had already broken through into the city!
Just then!
A stern and cold voice rang out from within the immortal city!
"I am Tianqiong!"
"All cultivators of the immortal city, gather at the gates and meet the Beast Tide in battle!"
"The Nine Nether Blood Sea Array has suffered minor damage. The Array Masters are repairing it now. It will be fully functional in less than an hour!"
"Battle merits earned tonight will be tripled! All who contribute will be handsomely rewarded!"
It was Sikong Xin!
With the sudden crisis at the gates, this Crystal Perfection cultivator could no longer sit still!
As his words echoed, a figure crackling with countless bolts of lightning made a dazzling, eye-catching appearance in the sky!
SWOOSH!
Sikong Xin’s spectacular Escape Light tore through the chaotic night sky, carrying a formidable wave of Magical Power as it shot toward the city gates!
’Looks like Sikong Xin is in a hurry...’ Su Ye’s eyes flickered as he fell into thought.
He had dealt with Sikong Xin several times before.
He knew the man’s personality; he wasn’t one for ostentation.
Yet now, Tianqiong was making a grand, thunderous display...
It was clearly a move to rally morale in a critical situation!
The move was quite effective.
After Sikong Xin appeared, the immortal city’s side found their backbone, and their morale began to rise.
In mid-air, streaks of Escape Light in various colors followed Sikong Xin toward the gates.
’Should I go?’
Su Ye thought for a moment, then made his decision.
With a push of his foot, an azure Escape Light rose, and he began to approach the city gates!
Of course he had to go!
After all, Su Ye didn’t think Weiyuan Immortal City would be breached so easily.
’What a joke...’
’Besides Sikong Xin, this immortal city also has a great cultivator at Crystal Perfection, on the verge of reaching the Golden Core realm!’
Canghai!
’The fact that Canghai hasn’t made a move means the situation... isn’t that urgent yet.’
’If I do nothing, it probably won’t look good...’
Despite this, as Su Ye flew, he activated the Illusion Spirit Pearl.
A hazy Illusory Spirit Fog swirled around him, concealing his aura and spiritual glow to avoid drawing attention!
’After all...’
’Being too conspicuous in the dead of night is not a good thing...’
Su Ye looked toward the city gates.
Sikong Xin was wreathed in lightning, emitting a dazzling glow.
With every move, countless bolts of electricity surged like a frenzy of silver snakes!
BOOM!
A clap of thunder blasted into the Beast Tide, instantly killing over a hundred demon beasts!
Not only that, but the lightning Sikong Xin summoned seemed alive, creating a chain reaction within the Beast Tide.
The electricity arced and spread, slaughtering demon beasts in droves!
He had actually managed to block the gate all by himself!
However, at that very moment!
SCREECH!
In the sky, a pair of wings blotted out the moon, casting a massive shadow!
The Evil Celestial Auk flapped its wings, and surrounded by countless air currents, it dove toward the city with terrifying might!
BAM!
The earth dragon turned over!
A terrifying tremor, as if the mountains were shaking and the earth was splitting, suddenly erupted!
The towering city walls groaned as if overwhelmed, and cracks began to appear.
A dozen or so breaths later, that section of the wall collapsed with a crash, revealing a gaping breach!
And the Rock-Crowned Crocodile Dragon, as large as a small mountain and covered head to toe in sturdy Scale Armor and stone-like skin, charged through the breach like a war chariot!
Whether cultivators, buildings, or even other demon beasts from the Beast Tide, anything in its path was flattened!
The Evil Celestial Auk and the Rock-Crowned Crocodile Dragon!
Two great Tier-3 Demon Kings were attacking Weiyuan Immortal City!
Outside the city, the Thousand-legged Sea Demon, unable to come ashore, broke through the waves and extended its tentacles, ready to provide support at any moment.
Tier-3 Demon Kings already possessed intelligence no less than that of an ordinary human!
Screech.
The Evil Celestial Auk was incredibly fast, approaching a Foundation Establishment cultivator like a gust of wind!
SHLICK!
Its iron-gray beak pecked viciously, piercing straight through the cultivator’s protective Spiritual Artifact and their body along with it!
"You beast, you deserve to die!"
Sikong Xin roared in fury. The slain Foundation Establishment cultivator was an Honored Guest Elder of the immortal city!
Meanwhile, the Rock-Crowned Crocodile Dragon, manipulating the power of rock and earth, was causing destruction on a scale comparable to Godzilla!
Sikong Xin had no choice but to abandon his post blocking the gate and take the initiative, engaging the two Demon Kings!
RUMBLE!
The three Tier-3 beings clashed!
A torrent of violent spiritual light surged wantonly, like a sun descending to Earth, nearly turning night into day!
With Sikong Xin tied down and another section of the wall breached by the Rock-Crowned Crocodile Dragon...
The pressure on the other cultivators instantly multiplied!
