CHAPTER 573: CHAPTER 269: BEFORE I DIE IN BATTLE, NO ONE SHALL HARM YOU

The cracks on the Sealed Blood Ore Crystal grew larger and larger until the room-sized crystal completely shattered.

From within emerged a towering figure who walked out of the crystal. His eyes shone like lightning as he scanned his surroundings, attempting to find his companions.

Centuries of slumber had left his consciousness somewhat blurred, but he soon sensed a presence that infuriated him.

It was the essence of Chaos!

That was... the Chaos Chosen!

"Rutuba!" he bellowed in anger, waving his long spear and thrusting it into the mountainside!

Meanwhile, at the boundary defenses of the Qinling Headquarters.

Metal blocks wrapped in lightning tore through the skies at terrifying speeds, striking the Church’s fire points.

The believers guarding this area hadn’t even seen the enemy before they were precisely hit, their artillery and bunkers instantly liquefied by the dreadful lightning.

Even those hiding in mountain fortresses were precisely bombarded.

These lightning-encased metal blocks had extremely high velocity and penetration.

Many fortresses could not mount any resistance before being directly pierced.

Under the relentless precision strikes, this line of defense was quickly breached.

Within the defense line, dozens of figures rushed out, rapidly advancing toward the direction of the Thunder Light Cannon’s fire using Aerial Stepping.

Leading them were two Demon Generals from the Zhu Tu Sect!

"Sixth-Sense Divine Protection?" One female Demon General grimaced as she looked at the devastation below.

There were many believers and artillery within these defenses, many of which were concealed in the valleys, supposedly subjecting all approaching enemies to intense artillery bombardment. Even a high-level Spiritual Ability User would be heavily drained of Spiritual Energy.

But now, these fire points couldn’t even spot the enemy before they were precisely destroyed. The remaining artillery could only fire in the direction of the lightning but was picked off as their positions were exposed. No, perhaps their positions were compromised from the beginning.

This chilled the heart of the Demon General.

Damn it, how could this be? With so many Dark Guards, sentries, and hidden strongholds scattered outside the defense line, how did they get totally exposed without any notice? Could there be several Assassin Masters among the enemies that located all the Dark Guards and fire points without the Headquarters knowing?

Or was there, within the Headquarters... a traitor? Those who knew about these Dark Guards and strongholds would undeniably all be high-ranking members of the Church! A traitor among the high ranks? Who could it be?

At that moment, another Demon General spoke coldly: "No, the attackers are not from the Divine Protection Path, but from the Zero Path. These metal blocks are reinforced with Spiritual Energy... Electromagnetic Cannons! The enemy is a Thunder Master! They can even somewhat control the magnetic field!"

"The closest to us are Chuanshu and Ba Shu Giant City, is there a captain in the Giant City with such ability?"

"No, there shouldn’t be, but no matter who he is or where he’s from, we can’t let him continue the attack! He’s not a Divine Protection expert, he can’t be too far... Found him!" the male Demon General’s eyes flickered, seeming to have transcended countless mountains and rivers to spy on their target.

It was a man clad in Dragon Scale Battle Armor, standing in a valley surrounded by a large amount of metal, mostly scrapped vehicles.

He reached out to touch the vehicles, and lightning burst forth, the metal inside the vehicles recast into solid blocks.

Then, as lightning flashed again, the metal blocks he held were wrapped in electrical arcs, shot out at speeds several times greater than the speed of sound, piercing the distance and penetrating an active artillery.

Sensing he was being watched, he immediately raised his middle finger to the sky with a hearty laugh: "Watching your daddy, huh? Idiot!"

This impeccable demeanor was unmistakably characteristic of the Moon Shadow Captain.

"Looking for death!"

Furious, the Demon General could not believe that a Zero Path Spiritual Ability User, found by two Chaos Chosen Demon Generals from the Blood God Sect, dared to spout such words.

Meanwhile, the Demon General also swiftly scanned their surroundings, wary of possible ambushes.

"Hey, two have come? Good..." Moon Shadow seemed utterly unconcerned as he drew the Blade Shield from behind him. The long-handled sword was inserted into the shield, merging into a big axe.

In the next moment, as he waved the axe, it induced a divine array of Heavenly Thunder, denser than even the Thunderbolt Forbidden Land.

Enveloped by countless bolts of thunder, Moon Shadow transformed into a tremendous wave of thunderous force, rapidly sweeping through the valley. His speed was so great that it caused the Demon Generals to frown.

As equals who were Sixth-Sense Experts, their speed was severely outpaced, unable to keep up.

Once the distance opened, the enemy began firing the electromagnetic cannon again.

This severely annoyed the two Demon Generals, yet, uncertain of whether there were ambush forces, their pursuit was cautious.

Meanwhile, the other defense lines of the Headquarters were suffering from rapid and precise attacks.

A Three-legged Golden Crow suddenly appeared within the defense line, transforming into a mini Lie Yang and devastatingly exploded, turning the entire stationed Legion in that valley into charred remains.

Moreover, four squads of Ye Boshou suddenly raided the outer perimeter of the Mine City and forest, killing a large number of believers.

In an instant, alarms blared continuously throughout the Qinling Headquarters.

The assailants, with surgical precision, had drawn the attention of the entire Headquarters.

Nearly all the Demon Generals were alerted, either leading elite teams or commanding Legions to hunt down the attackers.

"We’ve engaged two enemy Sixth-Sense Spiritual Ability Users, one from the Wanxiang Path with Mythical Mimicry of a Three-legged Golden Crow, and one from the Zero Path, a Thunder Master!"

"We haven’t spotted any enemy Legions!"

"Surround and eliminate them! But stay vigilant for ambushes!"

"Roze, Demon General, keep an eye on the Giant City! See which one has discovered us!"
