Chapter 2446 The Struggle for Dominance
"We cannot let them go. The weaker the enemy is, the stronger we become."
Of course, the reverse is also true.
The group rode the clouds and rushed down.
During this process, Aunt Zhu also discovered that the Panlong Ruins were very close by and that she was surrounded by several secret realms.
This scene deeply worried it. If it remembered correctly, these secret realms all had guardian spirits!
The immortals intercepted the transport team, killed all the monsters in the team, and the servants who were carrying the goods staggered away.
The volume of the crystals carried by these specially made large vehicles far exceeded their expectations.
Is Shangguan Biao a hamster? He's such a hoarder!
Everyone had a smile on their face.
Just then, Aunt Zhu warned, "The enemy is coming!"
Wolf King Silver Fang had received the message and led thousands of demon soldiers to attack from afar. The terrain was wide enough for large carts to pass through, and there were tall and magnificent buildings on both sides. They ran very fast.
Master Sihai ordered: "Form the formation!"
The Immortal Sect's battle formations are very efficient at killing monsters.
However, when the cultivators rushed to the surrounding corners to set up an array, they encountered a strange scene:
The building came to life.
The black-walled, black-roofed building next to him, only a meter away, suddenly transformed into a stone figure in that instant!
The eaves became the shoulders, the annex became the arms, and the doors and windows on the fifth floor became the mouth and eyes.
It turned to the side and smashed the cultivator into a bloody pulp with a single punch!
With a soft splatter, blood and flesh splattered onto the black wall.
This was not an isolated case; all the surrounding buildings made of stone deformed at this moment, and charged towards the crowd with menacing force.
Of the seventeen or eighteen surrounding buildings, at least twelve stood up, cooperating with the Silver Fang Wolf King's attack!
Don't forget, this is Shangguan Biao's home turf.
With the intruder's identity exposed, he can manipulate Yujing City to transform at will, and even every house can become a weapon to repel the enemy!
This is the power of Mother Earth.
Within its range of power, the enemy cannot move an inch!
Master Sihai pulled out his magic weapon and struck it, releasing the firebird once more.
This thing would be a devastating weapon in urban warfare. The firebird would sweep through every corner of the streets and alleys, letting the intense heat devour every living thing. It would be like after a great fire, the mountains and forests would be deserted.
However, the giant stone figures formed from the transformation of several buildings suddenly lay down on the ground, blocking the firebird's path.
They even used their shoulders and arms to block the gaps, leaving the firebirds nowhere to squeeze in.
The demon army behind them remained unharmed.
Master Sihai said angrily, "Damn it!" Shangguan Biao's home advantage in Yujing City was too obvious, and it would be too difficult for them to continue like this.
The benefits are disproportionate to the effort, so it's not worth it.
The thought had barely crossed his mind when Yujing City suddenly trembled again, and several large cracks appeared in the ground where everyone was standing, as if a canvas had been slashed open with a knife.
At the same time, the movements of the five giant stone figures suddenly froze. Driven by some unknown force, one of them shattered into a pile of ruins, while another squatted down and transformed back into a building, remaining motionless.
The other three actually turned around and threw several punches into the demon horde!
The demons were completely unprepared for them, and their hands were incredibly fast. With each punch, a mass of flesh and blood flew through the air!
The demons screamed and cried out in alarm, quickly making way for them.
What's going on? Everyone looked at each other, then exclaimed in unison:
"Chase!"
Today we should pursue the fleeing enemy, strike while they are weakened, and take their lives.
The three giant stone figures seemed to have lead in their feet, and stopped after only a few steps, raising their hands and pointing shakily to the west.
The meaning is clear: everyone is to attack the west side.
Master Sihai asked in surprise, "What's there?"
It was just a casual question, and I wasn't expecting an answer. But Aunt Zhu answered anyway:
"Devil!"
After pointing out the direction, one of the stone figures disintegrated on the spot, scattering into fragments all over the ground, while the other two seemed to recover and strode westward.
Aunt Zhu kindly warned: "Don't get too close to them, it's dangerous!"
The two giant stone figures moved at varying speeds, and it was clear to everyone that they sometimes wanted to turn around, but were restrained by some unknown force and continued westward.
After walking for over two hundred zhang, the giant stone figures slowed down more and more, sometimes twitching as if their legs wanted to move forward but their bodies wanted to turn backward, each trying to do its own thing, creating a very uncoordinated scene. As the group closed the distance, they suddenly turned around and stomped down!
This was even more powerful than a battering ram, but fortunately everyone was on guard and scattered before the giant foot even landed.
A loud rumble followed, raising a cloud of dust.
Aunt Zhu jumped to the nearest tower spire and saw that the two stone giants were actually wrestling with each other.
"What's this?" Immortal Mingke also came over. "Are the Earth Mother and Shangguan Biao fighting?"
"That should be it." The two immortals were very knowledgeable, but this was the first time they had encountered such a bizarre situation. "Shangguan Biao is dealing with us, but the Earth Mother is holding him back. It seems that although the Earth Mother has been dragged into the Void, her power can still be transmitted to Jade Capital City."
“Shangguan Biao couldn’t sever its connection with his own body, so he forced it into a deep sleep before, right?” Immortal Mingke reasonably guessed. “Once the Earth Mother wakes up, her control over Jade Capital City will be much weaker than before.”
At this point, he exclaimed "Eh!" and pointed straight ahead:
Why are the walls of Panlong Ancient City covered in snow?
Directly ahead is the east gate of Panlong Ancient City. Although not as magnificent as the south gate, the city wall is still very sturdy. From Aunt Zhu's perspective, you can see that the top of the wall is covered with a blanket of white snow.
Not only the city walls, but also a large number of buildings inside were covered in silver, and light snow was falling on the streets.
"Snow in Panlong Ancient City? This is not right!" As far as Aunt Zhu knew, it had never snowed in the Panlong Wasteland in the past 170 years.
Immortal Mingke shaded his eyes with his hand and looked eastward from the city wall: "The secret realm nearby is—the snow mountain?"
Outside the east gate of Panlong City, there is a large snow-capped mountain that almost seamlessly connects to the outside, and the snowflakes drift into the city with the wind.
“These secret realms will devour each other!” Immortal Mingke exclaimed. “Shangguan Biao must have moved all the powerful secret realms to the vicinity of Panlong Ancient City in an attempt to weaken its power!”
Aunt Zhu hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped herself.
Then it said:
"Wait, didn't you say before that the battle between the guardian spirits would determine the outcome of the secret realm?"
"No, no, it's not just that!" Immortal Mingke corrected it. "The secret realms devour each other, and the guardian spirits fight each other. These are battles on two levels, internal and external, and they can happen simultaneously. But if one side's guardian spirit is absent or avoids battle, the secret realm can still devour the other, just at a slower pace. Look at the foot of this snow mountain; the snow line keeps rising, which shows that its attack on Panlong Ancient City was not without cost."
This snow-capped mountain was originally covered with snow on 70% of its area, making it majestic and spectacular. But now all the snow below the halfway point has melted, revealing the dark earth.
