Chapter 940: Chapter 737: Endgame (Part 2)

Ding Chen knew the timing was about right; without wasting a word, he raised his hand and pointed at the city gate where Marshal Liu and his men stood, shouting, "Everyone, initiate the attack!"

The cultivators present all activated the power within their bodies.

They came from various worlds, and their powers were therefore varied.

When hundreds or even thousands of powers converged and swept forth, it seemed as if heaven and earth were on the brink of destruction.

Marshal Liu didn’t hesitate either, shouting loudly, "Everyone, form the Border Region Array!"

This group of countless soldiers are the elite warriors from the Daqian Kingdom.

At Liu’s command, all the soldiers, led by the Eldest Prince, rose to prepare for battle.

Marshal Liu turned again, "Everyone, employ the Military Array Skill."

As these words fell, everyone present pushed the Military Array Skill to its limit.

The strongest effect of this array is to enhance the abilities of anyone who knows this Secret Technique, without any side effects.

As the Military Array Power surged in, everyone, be they cultivators from other worlds or Liu’s men, received a terrifying boost, no less than a small realm upgrade.

In the moment of their enhancement, they wasted no time, immediately circulating Void Essence within and conjuring their respective Cultivation Techniques.

As the light fell, a terrifying roar erupted.

The attacks from both sides rolled back and forth, leaving everything in their wake as scorched earth.

Marshal Liu pointed his long spear at Ding Chen’s men, shouting, "Since they are so stubborn, the experts of the Daqian Kingdom and cultivators from the broken worlds, fight with me!"

The battle commenced.

At first, the attack seemed fierce but was actually the weakest; the real life-and-death struggle was what followed.

Both sides considered each other as corpses, making the battle extremely brutal.

Blood, fire, severed limbs, various situations, were enough to chill the hearts.

Ding Chen wielded two long swords, entangled with the unique power of their Soul Artifact World.

He was currently in a duel with the elder.

The elder is a cultivator from the Divine Soul World; although physically frail, his Power of Divine Soul stood atop his head and hung around him like rain curtains.

Their attacks were just about to clash.

Every punch of the elder carried unmatched might, even cultivators newly entered the Celestial Human Realm dared not take it head-on.

After exchanging over ten moves with the elder, Ding Chen shouted, "Old fool, stop being stubborn! What you’re guarding is mere nothingness. Only by following by the side of the Heavenly Demon can you be truly reborn!"

He truly hadn’t expected, after plotting for so long and even using the highest treasure of the Soul Artifact World, the opponent wouldn’t hesitate and matched them blow for blow using the Military Array Skill.

The elder sighed, "I’ve been hiding for so many years; I was once the strongest in our world, but like a turtle I have withdrawn, I’ve had enough."

"Now with this great person leading us, giving us hope, even if we only kill one Heavenly Demon, we can avenge our comrades from the past, that’s what I need the most."

Ding Chen yelled, "Avenge comrades from the past? To truly honor them, only preserving our lives will do."

"If you can’t save your own life, the legacy will be destroyed; if the legacy is destroyed, what awaits us is nothingness."

"Our world, our civilization, everything will vanish. Have you thought it through, are you really willing to pay such a price?"

The elder sneered, "There’s no thinking it through. Only one path lies ahead for me; I’m telling you, be a coward if you want, but don’t drag me along."

"Only by slaying those Heavenly Demons can I find true happiness."

Ding Chen ceased speaking, feeling that good words were wasted on the stubborn.

No matter how you advise, the other side only wants to follow this Savior without foundation.

So none of them should live, let them all die.

Then, Ding Chen launched another fierce offensive.

Marshal Liu’s side, although assisted by the Military Array Skill, unlike Ding Chen’s treasure, requires consumption.

The cost for them is the power within each soldier.

In the Border Region, the soldiers’ faces turned pale.

Some soldiers could no longer endure and sat down.

They held on through sheer willpower, but some things cannot be resisted by will alone.

Now, they have been drained, unable to muster even a trace of energy to maintain the Military Array Skill.

As more soldiers sat down to recover, Marshal Liu’s side gradually fell into disadvantage.

They resisted over and over, but constantly faced casualties.

Though Ding Chen’s side also suffered losses, it was significantly less.

Seeing the decreasing numbers on Liu’s side, as well as the accumulating injuries on the elder, Ding Chen felt a hint of joy.

He knew his plan was right; if he could kill all these resistors, resistance in this world would lessen greatly.

And if the resistance in this world decreased, even if Qin An arrives, what then?

He could, leveraging the remaining power and the Soul-Stabilizing Divine Needle, completely eliminate Qin An.

"Kill! Keep killing! Leave none!" Ding Chen shouted.

Then, the attacks from the cultivators from the broken worlds became even fiercer.

They attacked as if they disregarded their own lives, constantly advancing.

Marshal Liu dripped with cold sweat, being just a half-step Celestial Human Realm cultivator, after slaying several Manifest Saint Realm enemies, the consumption was large.

Seeing his side’s rapidly dwindling numbers, Marshal Liu knew continuing like this wouldn’t support for long before total annihilation.

"It seems I must use that move."

Seeing the numbers of cultivators continuously decrease, he finally gritted his teeth, deciding on a seldom-used tactic.

"Everyone, get into the city!"

"I’m going to use the Reversal Array, surviving for even a moment counts!"

As Liu’s words spread, the people executed promptly, breaking free from enemies and rushing towards the gates.

Seeing this, Ding Chen shouted, "Don’t give them a chance, swiftly wipe them out!"

Although they had the upper hand, sometimes delays bring changes, and he didn’t want any unforeseen complications.

Therefore, he needed to swiftly eliminate the enemies, preventing them from regenerating.

Yet the residual Military Array Skill was persistent; despite Ding Chen’s experts’ frantic attacks, they couldn’t hold the enemies back.

Marshal Liu combined efforts with other cultivators, attacking while retreating, eventually reaching the gates despite some losses.

Upon entering the gate, without hesitation, Liu activated his inner Void Essence.

"Reversal Array, rise!"

As Void Essence was drawn, the array slowly ascended.

But this array moved in reverse.

"Pft!"

Marshal Liu spat a mouthful of blood, feeling as if his body was torn up.

Once this Secret Technique was realized, it inflicted severe damage to the body.

Three days, they could hold for three days at most, or he’d surely die.

Ding Chen sneered, pointing his sword at the gate, "What nonsense Reversal Array, kill them!"

Numerous cultivators attacked, gathering power intense enough to destroy heavens and earth, aiming at the gate.

Yet in the next instant, it seemed as if an invisible barrier protected the gate, absorbing all the attacks.

Marshal Liu’s face grew paler, but he knew he made it through.

"Now, it’s up to Mr. Qin whether he can arrive."

He only needed to hold on; once Qin An arrived, perhaps there was a chance to break the deadlock.

Ding Chen’s gaze turned incredibly dark.

"You pathetic ants, utterly disgusting!"
