Cultivation: But Not a Game

Chapter 494 - 328: Ao Ying the Golden Dragon, Sneak Attack and Double Slaying of Immortals (Part 2)

"Boom!"

A massive hand of vital energy was shattered into pieces, but another one firmly held back the Sea Snake Demon Immortal. Five demon immortal essences charged up, cooperating with Star Luo, and astonishingly managed to block the Sea Snake Demon Immortal.

At this moment, another ghostly light shot out from Cai Pearl City, transforming into another Sea Snake Demon Immortal, ramming the demon immortal essence aside. Following that, a Horned Demon Person and a Celestial Immortal from the Snake-man Race joined forces, remotely drawing the attention of those ready to intercept, like Yu Shanming and others.

Freed from the predicament, You Chen turned around without hesitation and fled back into the city.

"What a pity!"

Star Luo, a bit frustrated, returned to the giant turtle’s back. Ao Ying smiled and praised:

"Sir, suppressing that You Chen, your strength is extraordinary."

Star Luo smiled and cupped his hands, saying:

"It’s a pity the enemy had reinforcements; otherwise, I would have surely kept him."

Ao Ying waved his hand and said:

"No rush, wait until Cai Pearl City’s mana reserves are exhausted, they’ll have to come out to fight. Then, we’ll have opportunities."

Star Luo retreated with a smile, turned, and used his Immortal authority to create a temporary channel, transmitting a message to several other Immortals present:

"Anyone interested in a collaboration?"

Lantide, a Celestial Immortal from the Merfolk, asked:

"What sort of collaboration?"

"In a short while, they will surely come out again, impatient. At that time, we strike together to capture one. I only need the physical body and the demon immortal’s soul; the rest of the spoils are yours."

After a moment’s thought, Lantide nodded and said:

"Agreed."

Some agreed, although Yu Shanming from the Human Race and Lei Mo from the Thunder Clan were unwilling to see Star Luo’s strength improve further, they reluctantly nodded in agreement.

Relying solely on Star Luo’s prowess was enough to suppress a demon immortal, and with the Merfolk Celestial Immortal’s cooperation, the success rate was high; whether they agreed or not, it had little impact, so they decided to share the spoils.

After a brief intervention from the Celestial Immortals, the battle resumed its previous rhythm; large amounts of cannon fodder were redeployed to continue the siege, and no one remembered You Chen unleashing a wave of toxic auras earlier, wiping out millions of cannon fodder.

Time passed, day after day.

Perhaps due to previous losses, the following days saw no demon immortals provoking them, only the routine attrition of cannon fodder.

Nearing a month of intense effort by the countless cannon fodder armies, the mana stored in the power pool and the earth vein energy within Cai Pearl City was nearly depleted, and everyone knew the final battle was imminent.

"Woo!"

A dull horn sounded across the sea area, and the City Defense Array’s light barrier, nearly impervious in defense, rippled, becoming clearer. Beyond the barrier, densely packed Sea Snake Race demon armies were visible.

With a heavy beat of war drums, the dense demon army surged over the city walls, through the City Defense Array light barrier, and out of the city, clashing in chaos with the Dragon Race demon army outside.

"The final battle has begun."

After waiting for over two months, Su Yu was invigorated and concentrated intently on the battlefield above.

The giant turtle, as large as a continent, slowly moved, and the many Celestial Immortals atop the palace stood ready.

"Dong!"

"Dong!"

The deep, powerful war drums beat incessantly, continually stoking the fighting spirit and Qi and Blood of both demon armies. Over time, even Golden Core Cultivators could hardly suppress their battle intent. Hundreds of players from various races gathered in the rear also gradually joined the battlefield.

"Hiss!"

At a certain moment, a Sea Snake Demon Immortal could no longer restrain itself and rushed out from the city.

On the Dragon Race side, six Celestial Immortals from four races immediately flew off the giant turtle’s back in response.

Yes, six.

Initially four, and another two had arrived during the month, one from the Human Race and one from the Celestial Eye People. Along with Ao Ying, the Crab General, and the Dragon Whale, and including the giant turtle, the Dragon Race coalition boasted ten Celestial Immortals in total.

The Sea Snake Race would not be outdone, releasing a Sea Snake Demon Immortal, an Octopus Demon Immortal, a Demonic Shark Demon Immortal, and eight Celestial Immortals from different player civilizations, totaling twelve Celestial Immortals, appearing to have the upper hand on the surface.

As for any hidden Celestial Immortals, Su Yu believed there should be some, but not many—at most one or two.

The two races and the recruited Celestial Immortal-level powerhouses were numerous, with at least over two hundred, but the Cyan Immortal Domain was vast. Just the domain of the East Sea stretched from south to north, east to west, spanning at least over ten billion kilometers.

Adding the South Sea, West Sea, and North Sea, the territory’s expanse exceeded the imagination of ordinary people.

The main battlefield of the Dragon Race and the Sea Snake Race was in the East Sea, but that did not mean there was no war in other seas, where Celestial Immortals were needed to oversee.

With over a hundred Celestial Immortals dispersed, fewer than a hundred were likely remaining in the East Sea.

To gather nine Celestial Immortal-level powerhouses for merely one battle at Cai Pearl City constituted a super-large-scale battlefield, making it unlikely for more Celestial Immortals to arrive.

No ceremonial words, the top-tier powerhouses from both sides appeared, engaging directly in combat, pairing up to fight.

Soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals, kings against kings.

Ao Ying transformed into a golden dragon and charged, directly engaging the highest-ranking Sea Snake Demon Immortal, swiftly gaining the upper hand with the Dragon Race’s inherent advantage.

The Crab General revealed his true form, a Golden-Claw Thunder Crab with a shell diameter of over twenty kilometers. Thunder flashes surrounded his massive golden pincers as he faced off against the Octopus Demon Immortal.

The Dragon Whale, the largest in size, revealed its true form—a giant whale covered in thick dragon scales, seventy to eighty kilometers long, ramming the largest Demonic Shark Demon Immortal on the opposing side several dozen kilometers away.

The remaining Sea Snake Demon Immortal was You Chen, who found himself entangled with Star Luo, wielding the Heavenly Gang Beast Control Banner.

The remaining Celestial Immortals from various player civilizations found opponents to pair up and fight.
