Immediately after that, several other pillars of light also pierced through the nine-coloured light mist and landed on the open ground outside the royal capital.
Da Sikong, Second Sikong, Princess Bai Li, Yellow Smoke Dust, Qing Mo, Sun Di Di, Xiao Hei, and Murong Yue, all of them appeared, and a large portion of them had crossed over into the first-tier powerhouse sequence.
Even Murong Yue, whose cultivation was weaker, was not far from being a first tier powerhouse.
With the arrival of Zhang Ruochen and the others, the pattern of forces outside the King’s Capital City found a new change.
The number of first tier powerhouses following Zhang Ruochen was surprisingly already comparable to the three major races of the Immortal Blood Race, the Human Race, and the various races of Savage Beasts.
The original three-legged situation had turned into a four-way battle for supremacy.
The Immortal Blood Race and the Savage Beasts’ various races’ powerhouses all calmed down and didn’t immediately make a move. In the patch of air between them, there were wisps of sound waves travelling, clearly communicating and discussing.
The arrival of Zhang Ruochen and a group of strong men from the Ming Sect had caused the Immortal Blood Clan and the Barbarian Beast Clans to lose their original advantage, and if they continued to fight, it was likely that all four of them would be injured, which would not be conducive to the ensuing fight.
In the end, the Immortal Blood Race and Savage Beasts’ various races’ powerhouses put away their battle weapons and carefully retreated backwards.
“What an abomination, it’s this Zhang Ruochen again.”
The Yellow Sky Imperial Daughter was very unwilling, clenching a mouthful of snow-white shell teeth.
However, for the sake of the greater good, she eventually retreated.
“Luckily, Zhang Ruochen arrived instantly and deterred the Immortal Blood Race and the various races of Savage Beasts, otherwise, the Human Race would definitely have suffered heavy deaths and injuries in this battle.”
All of the Human Race cultivators were as if they had been given amnesty, and all of them breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the crisis had been lifted for the time being.
Of course, soon another Human Race cultivator felt horrified and said, “The Zhang Ruochen of today is too powerful! Alone, he can already level the playing field with the three major races?”
Next to him, a Human Race cultivator expressed his approval, saying, “Empress Chi Yao spent a great deal of resources to cultivate the nine Boundary Sons, making it possible for the Human Race’s top experts to suppress the Barbarian Beasts’ various races. However, on what basis was Zhang Ruochen able to recruit so many heaven-defying characters, each with the strength to fight against the Realm Sons?”
In fact, there was still some gap between the qualifications of the Great Scholar, the Second Scholar, Sun Dadi, and the others and the several Realm Sons, only that, that gap wasn’t that big.
Moreover, they possessed some strange abilities that the Realm Sons did not have, which could narrow that gap.
For example, the Great Monk and the Second Monk alone in the same realm, were not at all a match for the Boundary Sons.
But when the two monks teamed up against the enemy, they could explode several times their battle power, and even if the two Realm Sons were combined, they might not be their opponents.
Another example was that Sun Di Di could transform into a Flame Giant Spirit Monkey in his frenzied state, and his battle power soared to be even more powerful than the average Swift Ancient Remnant Species.
Of course, no matter what, Zhang Ruochen bringing so many first-tier powerhouses still startled the human cultivators of all the major powers.
A hundred years later, when they all grew up, they would surely all become overlord that would intimidate the world, so how powerful would the forces Zhang Ruochen held be?
Only a few Realm Sons still appeared calm, because, they knew that the first-tier powerhouses of the Human Race, Savage Beasts, and Immortal Blood Race weren’t just these few on the surface.
The ones who stood out were only representative figures, and there were many others who were hidden in the shadows and didn’t show up.
The human race’s depth was quite profound.
The forces Zhang Ruochen held were indeed quite powerful, causing all living beings to feel fearful, but they were not yet strong enough to fight against a race.
Carrying the God-Extinguishing Cross Shield on his back, the Prince of Qi Tian’s six huge fleshy wings were fully unfurled, exuding a suffocatingly powerful blood aura as he looked at the royal capital not too far away, and said, “This Prince believes that there’s no need for us to go to war for the time being, and that we should unite together to break the royal capital’s city guard formation first.”
The Heaven Swallowing Devil Dragon said, “The Green Dragon Market Realm has been further depleted, and the power of the royal capital’s city guard formation has greatly diminished to less than 10% of its heyday. Combining the power of all of our beings, we might be able to break through the Ninth Grade Sacred Source Spiritual Spring before it comes out and share the Sacred Source Spiritual Liquid.”
Several Realm Sons and Zhang Ruochen naturally had no problem agreeing.
Prince Qi Tian’s gaze, looking towards the cloudy and hazy void, let out a laugh, “Several friends standing in the shadows, shouldn’t you also show yourselves and contribute some effort?”
“Puffing.”
A crimson torch, manifested and stood on top of a hill, tens of feet tall, emitting blazing flames.
It was a sycamore tree silhouette condensed from flames, quite thick and emitting astonishing heat, melting the earth on the ground.
Qiu Yu stood at the top of the sycamore tree, his aura high and cold, with his hands behind his back, giving off the demeanour of a supreme powerhouse.
In the other direction, from the nine-coloured light mist, a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old came out, unusually handsome, with crystal clear skin and long black hair that dragged all the way to the ground.
Looking at this young man, all of the first-tier powerhouses present revealed scornful expressions.
This man, was none other than the Heaven’s Destiny Emperor who had reanimated for a second life, and not only were they just first tier powerhouses, even Prince Qi Tian, Autumn Rain, and Zhang Ruochen, who had crossed over into the ranks of the super first tier powerhouses, all revealed solemn expressions.
Immediately after that, several Fae Beings ranked in the top ten of the Semi-Sacred Outer Rankings walked out, all of them crossing over into the sequence of first-tier powerhouses.
Han Chu stood on top of the head of a dragon corpse and led an army of Yin soldiers consisting of impermanent and corpse kings to the outside of the royal capital city, once again causing quite a stir.
Almost all of the top powerhouses who remained in the Green Dragon Market Realm showed up.
“Make your move.”
Prince Qi Tian roared out, removed the God-Extinguishing Cross Shield, and injected a steady stream of holy qi from his body into it.
Immediately, the God-Destroying Cross Shield exuded a power that was even more terrifying than the Thousand Stripes Destruction Strength as it smashed downwards, piercing through the clouds and landing above the royal capital of the Green Dragon Dynasty.
“Heavens! What is that …… cross that is even more massive than a mountain ……”
“Are the gods going to destroy the world?”
The indigenous humans in the royal capital city, looking at the huge cross that descended from the sky, all of them were scared to the point of going limp on the ground, giving them a feeling that it was almost as if they were experiencing divine punishment.
The royal capital’s city guard formation emerged, like a huge bowl of light buckling onto the ground.
The God-Extinguishing Cross Shield impacted on top of the light bowl, and a deafening roar was emitted, with white rays of light flying in all directions.
“Boom.”
At this moment, the city that stretched for over two hundred miles unexpectedly shook.
The royal capital’s city guard formation had not shattered, but everyone had seen how powerful Prince Qi Tian was.
Even those first tier powerhouses had cold sweat on their foreheads, with their strength, once they were struck by that strike just now, they were afraid that they would have to go up in smoke.
Qiu Yu, however, appeared calm and slowly raised one palm, and in the centre of his palm, a flame in the shape of a phoenix condensed.
“Phoenix Flame.”
With a flick of his finger, the flame flew out.
The tiny ball of flame was like a phoenix charging into the sky, becoming more and more gigantic.
In the end, the flaming phoenix, surprisingly, became tens of miles long, with its head, feathers, claws, and tail all revealed, like a real phoenix coming out of the world.
The flaming phoenix collided with the royal capital’s city guard formation, erupting a destructive force that burned the light shield into crimson colour.
The earth at the edge of the city guard formation all melted, turning into crimson magma that was rolling and flowing, much like transforming into a moat made of magma.
Each of the Heaven’s Destiny Emperor’s two eyes had twin pupils, and inside the four pupils, four pillars of cyan-coloured light flew out, crashing into the top of the City Protector Formation, causing it to sink inwards.
Although, the protective formation did not shatter, the impact force formed by the green coloured light pillars penetrated the protective formation and hit the city wall of the royal capital.
“Rumble.”
The towering and sturdy city wall unexpectedly collapsed a large portion of it.
This kind of tactic, which felt unimaginable, did not penetrate the city guard formation, yet it managed to damage the buildings inside it.
To him, what use was a city guard formation?
If he wanted to kill someone, even if the other party hid inside the defence formation, they would still be dead.
Prince Qi Tian, Autumn Rain, and the Heavenly Destiny Emperor were all a little too powerful, and many beings present, including some first-tier powerhouses, were beating a retreat, not daring to compete for the Sacred Source Spirit Spring and the World Spirit.
Immediately after that, the Demon Heavenly Prince, Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon, Vermilion Bird Immortal, Standing Earth Monk, and Snowless Night …… all unleashed top tier means and attacked towards the city protection formation.
The spatial structure around the royal capital was indeed quite solid, and withstanding such intensity of force, it surprisingly did not even break.
On the ground, however, many cracks appeared, and a large amount of magma gushed out from the ground, giving the impression that the earth was about to collapse.
“Forget it, I won’t be greedy, this group of people are all too perverted, fighting with them for heavenly treasures will more than likely lead to a miserable death.”
“Don’t want to be cannon fodder, I’ll return to the Kunlun Realm first!”?Those beings with weaker cultivations were completely dumbfounded and were quite decisive, turning around and leaving the royal capital.
The alliance formed by the Blood God Cult, Shangguan Family, and Cai Family left en masse, not daring to compete for the Ninth Grade Sacred Source Spirit Spring. With their strength, they would only be reduced to cannon fodder in front of a powerhouse of this level, so it would be better to leave earlier to at least save some of their living forces.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t rush out and instead, together with Xiao Hei, he came to the edge of the City Protector Formation, looking for the weak point of the City Protector Formation.
“There’s no need to look, this is it.”
Xiao Hei’s formation attainments were extremely high and his vision was poisonous, and he quickly found a formation point of the City Protector Formation.
Zhang Ruochen mobilised his spatial power and pointed a finger out, striking at the location of the formation point.
Space was torn apart and seven huge cracks appeared, flying towards the formation point.
The City Protector Formation was quite brilliant, causing space to distort to a certain degree, but at the location of the formation point, the spatial structure was normal.
The spatial cracks flew over, and with a clatter, they tore seven not-so-small cracks out of the City Protector Formation, and coupled with the external attacks from those other first-tier powerhouses, all of a sudden, the City Protector Formation collapsed like a balloon with a broken hole in it.
The royal capital of the Green Dragon Dynasty turned into an undefended city.
