“Old Li! Hold on, everyone, hold your ground!” Mo Tianji yelled. “The dawn of victory is already in sight. As long as you don’t let them break through, the great formation will completely be undone!”
Hearing this, Li Chunbo seemed to be infused with divine energy, roaring like a madman and unleashing his full strength! He truly resembled a steadfast pillar in the face of the overwhelming tide of the allied forces, mowing down enemies mercilessly!
Countless severed limbs and body parts were lifted up in front of him, heads rolling one by one; the number of experts from the Li family, over two hundred strong, was rapidly decreasing, yet no one took a step back. They would rather die than retreat an inch!
Meanwhile, the other Li family experts were charging fiercely with bloodshot eyes toward this side; in an instant, the sounds of battle were deafening!
A blood rain and a stench of blood swept across the field.
At this moment, even the commanding voices from both sides could not be heard, but no one cared about that anymore; they only knew to charge and kill!
Everyone’s eyes were red.
On the other side, Xiao Chenyu and others were rushing back with a burning fury in their hearts.
They were filled with tremendous anger, frustration, and a sense of humiliation, as they still didn’t know what that strange creature was or what methods it had used. It just led everyone in circles, refusing to confront them head-on. Each time they felt close to catching it, it would suddenly disappear, only to reappear not far away. Xiao Chenyu and the others were infuriated, nearly losing their reason, even planning to unleash indiscriminate attacks. With so many people combined, it was impossible for the creature to hide again. Yet, unexpectedly, that strange creature vanished again, and this time it truly disappeared.
Everyone joined forces to use their divine thought, searching a vast area, but there was still no discovery.
In the midst of hope, they could only return in disappointment, only to be shocked to find their stronghold turned upside down. Startled, everyone hurried back, but they had chased too far; even if they rushed back at full speed, it wouldn’t be instant.
“Li Chunbo! You dare?!” Xiao Chenyu shouted from a distance.
Both sides of the battle experienced a change in emotion. The allied forces were naturally overjoyed, but the Li family’s side was shaken, and their formation had begun to scatter.
At this moment, the Li family was in a dominant position, and if they could hold on a bit longer, although the allied forces had the numbers, they would inevitably be forced down from the mountain. Even with Diwu Qingrou’s impeccable command, it was no match for the psychological pressure exerted by the nine high-level supreme masters.
But at that delicate moment, Xiao Chenyu and the others had returned!
This naturally gave the allied forces a backbone, and their will to resist surged in an instant.
Diwu Qingrou secretly let out a sigh of relief; as wise as he was, he hadn’t expected things to develop to this extent. What was initially a decisive battle had inexplicably turned into a contest for land, even becoming the final battleground.
He didn’t know why Mo Tianji insisted on this place, but he would absolutely not give it up! Having ruled the battlefield for years, he could predict that if this terrain fell into Mo Tianji’s hands, it would inevitably bring tenfold trouble!
And that trouble would surely fall on him.
Diwu Qingrou didn’t want to bear it, truly didn’t want to.
Now that they had finally held on until Xiao Chenyu and others returned, Diwu Qingrou's heart finally relaxed. This place, after all, had not been lost!
Though fate played tricks, humans could conquer destiny!
Mo Tianji sighed this time.
At this point, he truly could not say he hadn’t tried his best.
Originally, fate had favored his side. Young Master Wei had surely given it his all; with so many high-level supreme masters, even one or two could easily threaten him, circling like ghosts before the Palace of the King of Hell, shuttling back and forth at the edge of the Road to the Underworld.
