Chapter 477: Phoenix General Had Been Sacrificed!

On the same day, Victor changed his plan in a hurry. The one who remained here was not his clone, but himself.

The reason he changed his strategy was that, after all, in order to keep Long Yi alive, someone had to stop the onslaught of the demon beast army.

Only half of the demon beast army that the Soaring Serpent had recruited came from the Hundred Thousand Mountain. The other half came from the scattered demon beasts in the surroundings. They were the ones who were mainly responsible for the charge.

However, since they were able to survive the extermination of the Central Plains Sect Alliance until now, these demonic beasts were extraordinary. Moreover, their hatred for the Central Plains Sect Alliance far exceeded that of the demonic beasts in the Hundred Thousand Mountain.

Therefore, it was right for them to lead the assault.

Of course, the Soaring Serpent also had its own selfish motives. It did not want to watch its brothers die.

“Attention! The leader of the enemy is three nascent soul cultivators! Their identities are unknown! All of you, be alert!”

Victor rode on the Three-legged Golden Crow and leaped into the air, retreating into the crowd.

“Long Yi, Men Ha, Ning Zhiyi, Qing Shan, step out! Step out!”

“Yes!”

“The four of you are responsible for trapping the two nascent soul cultivators. I will take care of one myself. Remember! Don’t fight! Don’t lose your life!

“Most importantly, don’t let the demon beasts break through the defense line!”

“Yes!”

At this moment, the five people led by Victor took the initiative to block the three nascent soul demon beasts!

Of course, they were not their opponents at all. Fortunately, Victor had warned the Soaring Serpent and the others not to kill them. Otherwise, they would be tortured and killed in less than three rounds!

As for Victor, he was responsible for the Soaring Serpent. They even discussed the countermeasures.

“Young master, the situation has become chaotic. What should we do next?”

“Get the demon beasts from the west and north to attack as well, in case the other two altars come to support us. In addition, I will pretend to fight you to death soon. You will kill me with your full strength. I will seize the opportunity to enter the Small World. Remember, the commotion must be huge, to avoid arousing the suspicion of others.”

“Got it.”

The Soaring Serpent replied in a deep voice and then began to tussle with Victor.

However, overall, the Crossing Sins Altar was crushed by the demon beast army. After all, the difference in top-tier combat strength was not something that could be made up with numbers.

As for the Sacred Fire Altar and the other two altars, they were also attacked by the demon beasts. Their momentum was even fiercer, and they had no time to pay attention to the battle on the east side. This was exactly what Victor wanted.

Furthermore, he had to hurry.

The north and west sides were guarded by nascent soul cultivators. Without nascent soul demonic beasts, it would not be long before they were defeated. Once they were free, two nascent soul cultivators and a dozen peak core formation cultivators would come and the Soaring Serpent and the other two might need to stay here.

“Long Yi!”

“Here!”

“I’ll leave the command of the Crossing Sins Altar to you!”

“Zhang Er! What are you going to do? Don’t be rash! When the two altars of Sacred Fire and Dark Altar are free, I’ll come over to help! You said it yourself, don’t lose your life!”

“I was talking about you guys. Hehe, the altar master has ordered me to take over the command. My words are military orders! If you disobey, I’ll kill you right now!”

“F*ck! Come! Come and kill me now!”

“Hehe, next time.” Victor chuckled and waved his hand. He then turned around and looked at the Soaring Serpent, continuing, “If I can survive, I will kill you as an example to others!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Victor patted the Three-legged Golden Crow below him and suddenly rushed toward the Soaring Serpent!

Seeing this scene, the Soaring Serpent understood and waved its hand. Monstrous spiritual power gushed out and gathered into a giant serpent. It opened its bloody mouth and pounced toward Victor!

“Long Yi! Apologize on behalf of me and the altar master! I won’t make it back to report to her personally!”

“Zhang Er!”

Long Yi flew toward Victor, but he was still a step too late.

The moment the giant spiritual energy serpent closed its blood pool mouth, a huge impact swept over. Long Yi immediately flew backward and crashed heavily onto the ground.

In mid-air, a brilliant light erupted, and then the giant spiritual energy serpent gradually dissipated.

“Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!”

Long Yi punched the ground. Gritting his teeth, he stared at the Soaring Serpent.

“All troops retreat. Retreat thirty miles and wait for reinforcements from the Dark Altar and the Sacred Fire Altar!”

At this point, it was pointless to feel sad. In order to consider the overall situation, Long Yi had no choice but to lead the troops to retreat.

In just one exchange, the Demon Slaying Division had lost nearly a thousand men. Although countless demon beasts had been killed, the number of deaths was suffocating.

Soon, the second wave of attacks came. The Ape General used his trump card and created an insurmountable gap, blocking the attack of the demon beast army.

However, it was only a delaying tactic.

When the Soaring Serpent arrived and used its spiritual energy to communicate with the heaven and earth to close the gap, the Crossing Sins Altar had no means to stop it. They could only fight with the demon beast army again!

As for Victor, he had long changed his appearance and changed his clothes. He blended into the crowd and retreated while fighting.

His goal was to enter Wailing Mountain. He could not waste time here.

Gongye Yuyu had sent him a message just now. The Xiao family had already arrived at Wailing Mountain. Time was of the essence.

However, due to the imposing manner of the demonic beast army, the Crossing Sins Altar was forced to retreat. Countless people were killed and injured. The defensive line was almost torn open. Seeing this scene, Victor could only add fuel to the fire.

“Soaring Serpent, attack with all your strength. Blast open a hole and charge toward Wailing Mountain. Cover me as I enter.”

“Yes! Young master!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the Soaring Serpent unleashed its power once again, tearing open a hole in the defensive line. Nearly two thousand people were sacrificed under this attack!

Seeing his brothers who had been together day and night die just like that, without even an intact corpse left behind, he felt helpless, humiliated, and powerless. Many feelings welled up in his heart.

As the opening grew larger and larger, the demon beast army rushed in and headed straight for Wailing Mountain. Seeing this scene, Victor took the opportunity to enter and entered Wailing Mountain along with the beast tide.

However, at this critical moment, the Dark Altar’s support arrived.

“Where’s Zhang Er!”

He Qi dragged the Yanling Saber and casually chopped down the approaching demon beasts, looking around.

“Long Yi! Where’s Zhang Er?”

“He Qi?”

“I’m asking you a f*cking question! Where is he?!” He Qi flew to Long Yi and questioned loudly.

“Phoenix… Phoenix General, to delay the demonic beasts, he self-detonated his golden core and sacrificed himself.”

“Impossible! Don’t joke around!”

He Qi was well aware of Victor’s strength. If those three stunning strikes were used, other than the nascent soul realm cultivators, no one would be able to block them!

“However, that’s the truth. Three nascent soul cultivators. We can’t stop them. Phoenix General sacrificed himself to buy us precious time.”

“Trash! You Trash!”

He Qi kicked Long Yi’s back and questioned loudly.

It was not easy for him to meet a confidant he could fight with, but because of this lousy security mission, he lost his life. He Qi could not accept it at all.
