The Legend of the Dragon King

Chapter 1842 The War Came Again

She could not possibly utilize the Eternal Heaven once again. After using it before, Yali stated that she could not heal all of the damage done to Ling Zichen’s body as the injuries could not be treated. She could possibly recover after a prolonged period of time, but that was also not certain. Yali told her in private that it would be hard for her to live past the age of sixty even if she could recover. This was because the explosion had wounded her origin source too severely.

Ling Zichen did not tell anyone about this, so only she was aware of this.

The abyssal creatures were here again, but this gave her eyes a peculiar brilliance.

She focused in the direction of the bombardment once again. In the next moment, she had turned around and swiftly walked back to her room.

She turned on her soul screen and rapidly keyed in a series of numbers to unlock it. She quickly began to tidy up some information gathered over the past few days. This data was the most precious treasure for the Tang Sect.

It was as if she was completely unconcerned by the tumult going on outside. Nobody from Shrek Academy or the Tang Sect would be looking for her at this point. She could not fight, so they would not know what their research center’s director was doing.

On the same mountain peak, almost all the powerhouses from the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy had already walked out of their barracks and gazed into the distance.

Everyone’s expression was exceedingly solemn. action

The abyssal legion was here again, and they did not have the Eternal Heaven anymore. There was no longer a disparity between the two parties. They had also just received word that the three great fleets had been ambushed.

This would end doubtlessly be a horrifying head-to-head battle. It was going to be exceedingly difficult for every single one of them.

The Amorous Douluo Zang Xin, the Holy Spirit Douluo Yali, the Light Dark Douluo Long Yeyue, the Titan Douluo Yuanen Zhentian, and a few other Limit Douluos had already gathered.

Zang Xin said, “The opponent is certainly aware of what we’re doing over here on our side. They won’t allow the Blood Gods Great Array to be completed, so they chose to launch an attack now. Moreover, I’m sure that they came fully prepared, so the difference between us and them is even lesser. Additionally, the abyssal plane will certainly hold nothing back this time. Without the Eternal Heaven, the abyssal plane can fight by sheer numbers. Elder Long, do you have any suggestions? The command headquarters have already requested reinforcements.”

Unhesitant, Elder Long replied, “Wulin has yet to leave his closed-door cultivation. The army from the Tang Sect’s Douluo Hall will act as the main combat force this time. We can’t split up anymore. We must stay concentrated as the main combat force. I propose the people from Shrek Academy join the Tang Sect’s army temporarily and engage in the battle together. We must try to reduce the fatalities as much as possible. Naturally, us veterans are going to fight against those powerhouses from the abyssal plane.”

As she spoke, she looked into the distance and wondered, ‘What is he doing now? The Sea God Army has been ambushed. Surely, he won’t just sit and do nothing. The enemy is capable of taking the offensive from two sides simultaneously. This battle will be just as hard-fought as the previous one even without the Bloodriver Godkiller Great Array.”

Zang Xin nodded and said, “This is the only way. I didn’t expect the abyssal plane to launch another attack so soon. I hope that Wulin can come back to us quickly. This is going to be a tough battle without his Golden Dragon Spear!”

The powerhouses from the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy soon gathered.

The Amorous Douluo Zang Xin led the army from the Tang Sect in addition to the numerous powerhouses from the Douluo Hall. There were fifteen Title Douluos among them and five with Hyper Douluo-ranked cultivation bases.

Had it not been for Shrek City’s great catastrophe, there would have been more than that.

The Light Dark Douluo Long Yeyue was the leader of Shrek Academy. There were also numerous Limit Douluos in addition to the Shrek Seven Monsters and all the elite warriors of the younger generation. This included Wu Zhangkong, Lan Muzi, Tang Yingmeng, the Duskgold Bear Yang Nianxia, the Jade Snake Zheng Yiran, the Immortal Xu Yucheng, the Shackler Luo Guixing, the Hell Wu Siduo and those from the same generation as Tang Wulin.

They did not play a role in the previous battle because the Eternal Heaven was used, but they were ready to engage in the battle this time.

Zang Xin looked at everyone and spoke in a deep voice, “Then I shall assume authority. Until Tang Wulin’s return, I shall lead us into battle as one. Please join me, fellow Limit Douluos. Our targets are the abyssal monarch-ranked and king-ranked powerhouses. The abyssal creatures can be resurrected through the recycled energy. However, the more formidable the creature, the longer it will take to resurrect. We must try our best to weaken them as much as possible. The rest will be separated. The army from the Douluo Hall will be split into ten squadrons with one hundred people each. All the Title Douluos from Shrek Academy, please distribute yourselves equally in the squadrons. We shall engage in the battle with each squadron as a unit. Use the mechas as the main fighting force during the earlier phase and try to conserve our energy as much as possible. Help each other out. Can everyone understand me?”

“Understood,” they all replied in unison.

Zang Xin looked toward Wu Zhangkong and said, “Zhangkong, you shall join Lan Muzi, Tang Yingmeng, and the Shrek Seven Monsters to form one squadron. Add Sima Jinchi as well. That makes up ten people in total. This squadron will be in charge of rescuing the others. When one squadron is having difficulty, this squadron will provide assistance. You will be commanding them.”

“Sure!” Wu Zhangkong had his usual ice-cold expression.

The reason Zang Xin put him in charge of this extremely crucial rescue squadron instead of Lan Muzi, whose cultivation base was higher, was mainly because almost all the Shrek Seven Monsters had cultivated under his tutelage. It was apparent that he had a close relationship with them.

“Alright, we depart now! Let’s go.” As he spoke, Zang Xin had already taken the lead to leap up and rose into the sky.

The numerous Limit Douluos including the Body Douluo A Ruheng with his Limit Douluo-ranked cultivation base followed behind and jumped up after him. They dashed toward the battlefield.

The rest of them followed closely as well. Wu Zhangkong led the rescue squadron into the sky, followed by the Tang Sect’s army.

The Tang Sect’s forces finally revealed their fantastic resources at that moment. There was a flash of light that transformed into enormous mechas. Every single one of them was entirely black which meant that they were hyper mechas.

It was nothing to possess one or two black mechas in an army, but to have a whole troop of them was rather impressive.

Only soul masters’ organizations like the Tang Sect and the Spirit Pagoda could afford such resources.

The Spirit Pagoda was wealthy, but their research direction was mostly invested in spirit souls. There was still some disparity in technological resources between them and the Tang Sect, which had a history that went back twice as long.

In the meantime, the war was already in full swing on the battlefield.

The enormous Guardian Longhorn Beetles charged out of the abyss, carrying the abyssal powerhouses of different clans. The beetles immediately turned their bodies into shields to protect their elite warriors. They used their incredible endurance to resist the first round of ferocious attacks from the federal military.

In order to seal the abyssal passage, the great army corps of the Federation were sparing no effort in setting up a huge variety of large-scale defense soul weapons in the surrounding area. Not only were defensive lines set down nearby, numerous large-scale and super large-scale attack soul weapons on the distant mountain peaks were also aimed at their location.

The Guardian Longhorn Beetles were highly durable, but one would still be killed occasionally under the heavy bombardment of the artillery fire.

The abyssal creatures exposed to the insane assault were taking casualties. One by one, they turned into gray-black mist.

The gray-black radiance inside the abyssal passage had stopped pulsating, revealing the pitch-black hole from before.

“Roar! Roar! Roar!” Deep roars echoed through the abyssal passage, and an abyssal creature with a colossal body came crawling out from the inside.
