Chapter 663 Immortal Cultivator
Chapter 663 Immortal Cultivator
Pandora stood in the center of the mercenary group, wearing silver and black armor.
Her eyes were firm. She was no longer the gentle girl she once was, but the female ruler of the Ancient Blood Royal Court. Now that she had completed her retreat, she seemed to be even more powerful, and she was already showing signs of breaking through from demigod to become a god.
Following her came thousands of Holy Blood Warriors and over a hundred Blood Sacrifice Priestesses.
When she walked in front of Xingluo, she said softly:
"I returned to my family for you, and now I lead my entire family to fight for you."
Xingluo stared at her, his eyes flashed, but he said nothing.
Xiao Hei hummed softly beside him, with a rare hint of gentleness in his voice.
"Shadow" is a code name, and no one knows his real name.
The real family behind him is the throne of intelligence and assassination, called "The Silent Palace". Obviously, some secrets were only known to these people after they became the heads of the family.
The Temple of Silentness is spread across the entire continent. Their strength lies not in their legions, but in their infiltration.
It is said that the eyes of the Silent Palace may be lurking in the court of any kingdom.
Their warriors are "Shadow Dancers" whose bodies are as thin as smoke and can follow the shadows and disappear behind the enemy in an instant.
Their magic is the "Silent Field", which can make the entire battlefield silent in an instant, making it impossible for the enemy to communicate and disrupting their formation.
Ying led not an army of ten thousand, but more than a thousand elite soldiers.
But when they appeared, even the dragons temporarily suppressed their power and did not approach rashly.
Because this group of people give people the feeling that they are not mercenaries, but the incarnation of the god of death.
Ying walked up to Xingluo and whispered:
"My friend, you gave me strength and made me grow, so I dedicate my silence to you."
Xingluo smiled slightly: "Then God will not be able to hear the believers' prayers."
Atlantis's family is the oldest swordsman heritage on the continent.
They established their country with swords and protected their homes with swords, and were called the "Gate of the Sword Saint."
The foundation of the Sword Saint's Gate is three thousand "Sword Cultivators".
They do not rely on complicated magic, but instead practice swordsmanship, and each sword strike can cut through mountains and rivers.
In addition, there are seventy-two "Sword Saints" in the family, each of whom is half a step beyond the ordinary and can fight against dragons alone.
What’s even more terrifying is that they have a “Sword Tomb” where the long swords of sword masters from past generations are inserted.
As long as the ceremony begins, the sword tomb can transform into countless sword shadows, becoming a weapon to destroy the army formation.
Atlantis changed his magician image. Apparently, after becoming the head of the family, his bloodline was awakened, and he became a powerful man who practiced both magic and martial arts. His ability was almost that of a demigod, and he was a demigod with super calculation ability. This kind of strong man was the most terrifying existence for the enemy. He was dressed in white armor, with two swords hanging from his waist, and his steps were firm.
Following him came three thousand sword cultivators and seventy-two sword saints.
There were no shouts of killing as they marched, only the jingling of swords.
Atlantis walked up to Xingluo and looked him straight in the eyes.
"You are my comrade, and the reason why I am willing to draw my sword."
Xingluo nodded: "Then swing the sword to the sky."
In contrast to Atlantis, Erwin was born into the most prominent magic family, the Tower of Starlight. After becoming the head of the family, he awakened his magical talent and became an extremely powerful magician in a short period of time.
They are symbols of knowledge and arcane arts, and once fought against the Temple, but were ultimately suppressed.
The Tower of Starlight holds the ancient arcane matrix.
They can use the stars as a medium to borrow the power of the sky.
There are 100,000 apprentice mages under the tower and more than a hundred great sages of the stars above the tower.
Their biggest trump card is the "Star Chain" - once unleashed, it can pull the power of the stars in the sky down and transform it into a torrent of destruction.
Erwin came with the entire Star Tower.
It was a giant tower suspended in the air, surrounded by starlight, like a second star in the night sky.
When he stood side by side with Xingluo, he smiled and said:
“You were once my classmate, and now you are my Lord Earl.
But here, you are my ally."
Xingluo stared at the Xinghui Tower and said coldly, "Then let the stars fall on the gods' heads."
Outside the Valley of Requiem, the five major families gathered.
The Court of Shadows and Flames, the Holy Court of Ancient Blood, the Silent Palace, the Gate of the Sword Saint, and the Tower of Starlight.
These five top continental powers now appear under the same banner.
They did not choose to escape, because in the face of the war of gods, any escape would mean genocide.
They did not choose to betray, because betrayal would only make them slaves of the gods.
Mo, Pandora, Ying, Atlantis, and Erwin walked up to Xingluo at the same time.
They spoke together:
"Our family, our strength, our blood—all of this is here, and we fight for you."
Xingluo did not incite or express gratitude, but simply raised his hand and pointed to the western sky.
"Then let the gods see the ultimate power of mortals."
The Shadow Fire Legion led by Mo was the first to enter the mercenary group.
Their march was silent, but their true value was revealed when night fell.
The Starfall Legion lacked experience in night combat, but the warriors of the Shadowfire Court were able to thrive in the dark.
Especially Mo Geng created a magic-forbidden area around him, where magicians weaker than him would be ineffective.
They created a set of "Shadow Fire Talismans" for the mercenaries. As long as they were engraved on the inside of the armor, the mercenaries' vision would adapt to the darkness.
At the same time, they taught the "Silent Step Method" so that mercenaries could move quickly at night without alerting the enemy.
In just three days, the combat effectiveness of Xingluo's soldiers in night battles doubled.
In the past, they defended cautiously in the dark, but now they can take the initiative to attack.
The Shadowfire Family's most terrifying secret technique, the Shadowfire Brand, was also brought to the camp.
With the help of Moonfall Blade, this brand can be silently branded behind the enemy.
Once triggered, the enemy camp behind them will instantly burst into flames.
When Xingluo witnessed a drill, he said in a cold voice:
"This is not war, this is hell."
Mo simply responded: "If you want to fight against the gods, you must send your enemies to hell."
The Ancient Blood Holy Court, led by Pandora, brought an unprecedented power into the Legion.
When the blood of a Holy Blood Warrior erupts, its power is comparable to that of a dragon.
They began to select the elite from the mercenary group and conduct bloodline trials.
Any human soldier who can withstand the power of the Holy Blood can gain a physique that surpasses that of ordinary people.
Three hundred soldiers successfully passed the trial and became "Half-Blood Warriors".
Their eyes gleamed crimson, their shoulders broadened, their movements swifter.
Under their leadership, ordinary soldiers seemed to have their potential stimulated.
The blood sacrifice priestesses set up a "blood altar" in Requiem Valley.
They held a ceremony every day to turn the blood of the dead soldiers into a "blood mist" that covered the entire army.
This blood mist does not corrode, but instead turns into a protective barrier that can offset some of the damage to the legion on the battlefield.
Pandora once presided over a ceremony herself.
As the blood mist rose, she whispered to Xingluo:
"This is not blasphemy, this is protection. Every person who has passed away will continue to fight for you."
Xingluo looked at her, his eyes trembling slightly, and his voice was a little cold:
"Then I must let them die less."
The Silent Temple led by Ying does not have strong combat power, but the value they provide is irreplaceable.
All the secret lines they had laid out across the continent are now in Xingluo's hands.
The believers of God, the lurkers of the Church of Light, and even the location of God's altar were all revealed one by one.
When Xingluo first received this information, he was silent for a long time. These happened to be the blind spots of his intelligence system.
He understood that with this information, war would no longer be a blind fight, but a chess game that could be completely and precisely controlled.
The Shadow Dancers of the Silent Temple began joint training with the Moonfall Blade.
When Moonfall Blade tears through the enemy camp through teleportation, Shadow Dancer can instantly cut in and kill the enemy commander.
This combination is called "Silent Kill".
During the drill, a shadow dancer killed three "fake generals" in the enemy camp within five breaths.
The soldiers were stunned, and even the dragons couldn't help but roar.
Ying stood in front of Xingluo and whispered:
“If the enemy loses their head, even the strongest army will collapse.”
The sword-cultivating army Atlantis brought with him was purest form of military force. This surprised Xingluo immensely. He had assumed the Atlantis family were all magicians, but he hadn't expected a family of sword cultivators to be behind them. This was a secret art inherited from the ancient East. It was said that in its heyday, it was all cultivators. He didn't know if it was just a legend or if this history actually existed. At least, since he had traveled to this alien continent, he had never encountered such a force. If there really were cultivators, why had the God of Light won back then? Had the strongest of these cultivators ascended to another dimension?
