Chapter 228 The Tragedy of the Soul-Snatcher
On the battlefield, smoke filled the air and shouts of battle shook the heavens.
The Bull Demon King, leading the Yellow Turban Warriors, surged towards the Daoist soldiers—the Soul-Hooking Army—like a torrent.
"Raise the flag! Ignore everything else for now, deal with the Soul-Snatching Army!"
Just then, Meng Zhang, who was behind the army, suddenly gave an order to the flag bearers beside him.
His voice was cold and firm, like a sharp sword pointing straight at the heart of the Soul-Snatching Army.
Upon seeing Meng Zhang's order, the Azure Dragon Legion around them acted immediately without hesitation.
Like giant blue dragons, they surged towards the Soul-Hooking Army from all directions, forming an encirclement with the Bull Demon King and the Yellow Turban Warriors.
The Soul-Hooking Army was caught off guard by the sudden appearance of the Azure Dragon Legion, and their formation was instantly torn apart.
Taking advantage of the situation, the Bull Demon King and the Yellow Turban Warriors launched an even fiercer attack, wielding their weapons and taking lives with each swing.
"Hold on! Hold on!"
The generals of the Soul-Hooking Army shouted loudly, trying to calm their troops.
However, faced with such a powerful enemy, the warriors of the Soul-Hook Army were already feeling overwhelmed.
They fought the enemy with all their might, but casualties continued to rise.
The warriors of the Azure Dragon Legion were like ferocious tigers with bloodshot eyes.
Their movements were agile, and every attack put immense pressure on the Soul Hook Army.
With their combined efforts, the Bull Demon King and the Yellow Turban Warriors launched even more unrestrained attacks, tearing apart the Soul-Snatching Army's defenses time and time again.
"what!"
A soldier of the Soul-Catching Army was struck by the Bull Demon King's staff, his body arcing through the air before crashing heavily to the ground.
Blood stained his battle robe and the battlefield.
"Brothers! Let's fight them!"
Another Soul Reaper warrior roared as he charged towards the enemy, his eyes filled with determination and resolve. However...
However, before he could even swing his weapon, a warrior from the Azure Dragon Legion pierced his chest with a sword.
However, under the Bull Demon King's frenzied attacks, the Soul-Hooking Army's military formation gradually showed signs of weakness.
The brilliance of the military strategist's image gradually dimmed, as if it might dissipate at any moment.
The Bull Demon King wielded his iron cudgel and charged towards the Soul-Hooking Army's military avatar. Each swing of the cudgel carried the force of thunder, putting immense pressure on the Soul-Hooking Army's warriors.
"Hold on! You must hold on!"
The commander of the Soul-Snatching Army shouted loudly, trying to encourage his soldiers to persevere.
The Soul-Hooking Army warriors gritted their teeth and did their utmost to maintain the operation of the great formation.
With the enemy surrounded by three forces, the Soul-Hooking Army is in a precarious situation.
They were originally known for their speed and unpredictability, but under the siege of these three forces, their advantages vanished.
The sounds of war drums, shouts, and the clash of weapons blended into a tragic war song that echoed across the battlefield.
However, as time went on, the cracks in the military formation grew wider and wider, and it could no longer withstand the Bull Demon King's attacks.
boom!
puff!
Suddenly, a deafening roar resounded, and the military formation deployed by the Soul-Hooking Army finally showed cracks under the fierce attack from the three sides.
They were black fissures, spreading across the formation like a spider web.
As the cracks widened, the entire formation began to shake violently, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.
The soldiers of the Soul-Hooking Army were terrified, knowing that once their great formation fell, they would have no power to resist.
However, no matter how hard they tried to repair them, the cracks seemed to come alive and continued to expand.
Finally, with a deafening roar, the military formation completely collapsed, turning into wisps of black smoke that dissipated into the air.
As the great formation dissipated, the military magic that the Soul-Hooking Army relied on also vanished.
Those once majestic and imposing Dharma images now withered away as quickly as burst bubbles.
The warriors' eyes were filled with despair and fear. They knew that without the support of the grand formation and the Dharma image, they had no chance of winning this battle.
"Haha! Follow me and kill!"
Seeing the military formation broken, the Bull Demon King roared to the sky, his voice shaking the surrounding wilderness.
Laughing loudly, they launched a final charge against the Soul-Snatching Army.
His image as the God of War appeared even more majestic and imposing under the sunlight, as if he were about to trample the entire battlefield under his feet.
The Azure Dragon Legion and the Yellow Turban Warriors followed closely behind, launching a final massacre against the Soul-Hooking Army.
The battlefield was filled with the screams and groans of the remaining soldiers of the Soul-Hooking Army; rivers of blood flowed and corpses littered the ground.
At that moment, Nangong Tianxia, who was being held back by the three demons of Lion Camel Ridge, heard the sound of the Soul-Hooking Army's military formation collapsing and looked back.
His eyes reflected the horrific scene at the center of the battlefield; the Soul-Hooking Army had been almost completely wiped out.
The once formidable Soul-Hooking Army was now in dire straits under the siege of the Bull Demon King, the Azure Dragon Legion, and the Yellow Turban Warriors. Their military formation shattered, their divine forms dissipated, and soldiers fell one after another, their battle robes stained with blood.
"Damn it! Those damned Yellow Turban rebels!"
Nangong Tianxia's heart was as heavy as lead.
He understood that the Soul-Snatching Army was doomed, and its complete annihilation was inevitable.
However, as a general of the Great Qian Dynasty, he could not stand idly by and watch his men sacrifice themselves so tragically.
"We must break through and rescue the remaining Soul Reaper soldiers!"
"At least, leave some seeds for the Soul Reaper Army!"
Nangong Tianxia gritted his teeth, a resolute glint flashing in his eyes.
However, the three demons of Lion Camel Ridge on the other side were not easy to deal with.
With the amplification of the combination skill - Lion Camel Pagoda, the Azure Lion, the White Spirit, and the Golden-Winged Roc are almost all top-tier war gods.
They stood in front of Nangong Tianxia, intending to prevent the Daqian Thunder Dragon Riders from charging into the battlefield.
"Haha, Nangong Tianxia, you won't escape from here today!"
Qin Shi laughed loudly, swung the steel knife in his hand, and slashed fiercely at Nangong Tianxia.
Nangong Tianxia brandished his spear, barely managing to parry Qin Shi's attack.
At the same time, his mind raced as he pondered how to break through the blockade of the three demons.
He knew that he could not defeat the three demons of Lion Camel Ridge, who possessed the strength of top-tier war gods, by his own strength alone. He would have to rely on the power of the Thunder Dragon Riders to have any chance of breaking through the encirclement.
"Everyone, listen to my command! Follow me to break through the blockade and rescue our brothers from the Soul Reaper Army!"
Nangong Tianxia shouted loudly, his voice shaking the heavens.
The Thunder Dragon Riders responded in unison, raised their dragon spears, spurred their warhorses, and surged towards the three demons' blockade like a torrent.
Upon seeing this, the Green Lion, White Elephant, and Golden-Winged Roc all showed a hint of seriousness in their eyes.
The combined strength of Nangong Tianxia and Lei Zelongqi, this Daoist army, is comparable to the top-tier Heavenly God General of the 110-level base game.
If they were allowed to rush into the center of the battlefield, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The three demons roared and launched a simultaneous attack, intending to kill all the Thunder Dragon Riders.
However, the Thunder Dragon Riders were all battle-hardened elites, skilled in horsemanship and spear fighting, and they relied on the imposing presence of this military formation.
Despite the fierce attacks of the three demons, they were not at all at a disadvantage.
