Chapter 186: Bloody Battle

Chapter 186: Chapter 186: Bloody Battle

"Ah?!"

"This...!"

The few people present watched the scene unfold, and for a moment, it felt as if their hearts had stopped beating. They had never witnessed anything like this before!

Shattered stones scattered in all directions, rolling down the hillside! In the jungle, Exotic Beasts fled in a blind panic!

"Go! Let’s get out of here quickly!"

Instantly, everyone realized that this time, the incident would likely evolve into a beast horde even more ferocious than the last!

Meanwhile, upon the ramparts.

The guards also heard the violent explosion! A high-ranking officer of the Guard Army at the Late-Star Stage walked over, staring into the distance. This location seemed to be exactly where Ye Yunyi had previously mentioned volcanic activity!

"Gather a team and come check it out with me!" Gao Zhen immediately ordered. After all, the Eighth King General was not currently in the stronghold. As a high-ranking officer in the Alliance Guard Army, he naturally bore this responsibility.

A short while later.

Gao Zhen gathered a team and sprinted madly toward the location. Along the way, whenever he spotted Exotic Beasts, he slaughtered them.

Looking at the creatures, he frowned. Something felt wrong! Why did these Exotic Beasts seem to be fleeing for their lives? There were even some High-level Exotic Beasts among them. One must know that these High-level Exotic Beasts possessed some sentience! They would not act this way in the face of ordinary threats. Would a mere volcanic eruption cause them to panic like this?

"Do you think something will happen over at the stronghold?" Gao Zhen asked.

The others looked at him and shook their heads.

"There are still so many experts inside the stronghold. Furthermore, Lord Ye is standing guard!" an Alliance Guard Army soldier replied. His words made the people beside him nod in agreement.

Hearing Ye Yunyi’s name, Gao Zhen also nodded. Ye Yunyi’s strength, combined with the presence of so many Patriarchs, meant their defenses were likely even stronger than when the King General was around! Right now, his mission was to quickly investigate what was happening in the distance. If there was a more urgent situation, he needed to notify everyone to evacuate immediately.

Meanwhile, inside the stronghold.

The sentries on the city walls had already begun beating the war drums. The sound of drums made from the skin of special Exotic Beasts echoed for a hundred miles, reaching the ears of every Mutant within the walls.

Hearing the drums, Ye Yunyi let out a sharp whistle. The Qingling Roc immediately took flight!

"Notify all the Patriarchs to head to the city gates!" Ye Yunyi left these parting words and headed straight for the gates.

The remaining people mounted their Exotic Beasts and began informing the various Patriarchs. Seeing this commotion, Vira naturally understood what was happening. Although the warning methods here were quite different from those in the Northern borders, it did not stop her from recognizing the imminent danger. Following suit, she also headed straight for the city gates!

At this moment, far beyond the city gates!

The distant forest was already undulating like wheat blowing in the wind. Seeing this, the soldiers of the Alliance Guard Army twitched their mouths. This time, it seemed even more terrifying than the last! However, the Eighth King General was currently outside and had yet to return.

"Pass down the order! Get the brothers ready for a bloody battle!"

"Even without the King General this time, we can still hold the line..."

Before the high-ranking officer could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a piercing cry from behind. He looked back and saw Ye Yunyi arriving, riding upon the back of the Qingling Roc. In his hand, he held a massive bow.

The next moment, the Qingling Roc swept over his head, and Ye Yunyi leaped down directly from the bird, landing squarely on the city wall. In that instant, Ye Yunyi’s appearance seemed like a War God descending upon the world in the eyes of the crowd, giving them a solid pillar of support.

Ye Yunyi gazed at the surging forest before him and let out a cold snort.

He drew his bow! Nocked an arrow!

The next moment, a Diamond Level Exotic Beast burst out of the jungle!

ROAR!

Staring at the stronghold ahead, the Exotic Beast let out a furious roar and prepared to accelerate. It intended to smash through the massive city wall blocking its escape route!

But!

SWISH!

Ye Yunyi released his bowstring! An immense force blasted the arrow forward! The speed was so great that even the nearby Alliance Guard Army soldiers were stunned. They simply could not believe what they were seeing! What kind of speed was this? What kind of power?! They felt as if they were watching space itself twist and distort!

Then, they saw a streak of silver light shoot out! They turned their heads!

By now, the distant Exotic Beast already had a gaping bloody hole blasted through its head! Then, it collapsed!

ROAR!

ROAR!

ROAR!

The next moment, wave after wave of Exotic Beasts charged out of the forest once again!

Ye Yunyi immediately drew his bow and nocked another arrow, firing once more! Instantly, several High-level Exotic Beasts fell dead!

Meanwhile, down below, the Alliance Guard Army threw open the city gates! They surged out, charging toward the remaining Exotic Beasts! The Patriarchs did the same! Vira, Gong Xiaohan, and even Qu Yilin were impressively among the ranks, leading their tamed beasts! They charged head-on into the fray!

The scene was incredibly shocking!

Down below instantly turned into a meat grinder for the Exotic Beasts! After all, the High-level Exotic Beasts in this horde had already been dealt with by Ye Yunyi; the remaining ones were all low-level. How could they possibly withstand such an onslaught!

"Die!"

Looking at the Exotic Beasts before her, Vira’s eyes flashed with cold sharpness! She immediately began her slaughter! In this instant, she felt the battle genes of the Northern borders boiling within her veins! Following that, she pushed further forward! The other Patriarchs did the same, charging and killing with wild abandon!

Observing the situation below, Ye Yunyi slammed his Sun-Shooting Celestial Bow into the city wall! Pushing off with his feet, he dove straight into the carnage! Mid-air, a Battle Axe materialized in his hand!

Vira fought with tremendous vigor. Just after slaying an Exotic Beast, before she even had a chance to catch her breath, a beastly roar erupted beside her!

A Star Level Exotic Beast lunged, jaws snapping furiously toward her. Seeing that bloody, gaping maw, even Vira froze for a second! This...! Her entire body tensed up instantly, bracing for the impact!

SQUELCH!

A sickening sound suddenly rang out! Vira watched as a flash of cold steel sliced right past her! The next thing she knew, only half of the Exotic Beast’s head remained! Even its Crystal Core was exposed to the open air!

"Ah?!" Vira’s eyes widened in sheer disbelief. She simply couldn’t comprehend what she had just witnessed!

Who was that?! What an incredible technique!

She followed the trajectory of the Battle Axe and saw a figure gripping its handle. It was none other than Ye Yunyi!

Ye Yunyi glanced back at her. Then, he sped off toward another direction, instantly executing his Divine-level Body Technique!

At this moment, Ye Yunyi was like a phantom on the battlefield, madly slaughtering the Exotic Beasts! Moreover, every target Ye Yunyi hunted was a High-level Exotic Beast!

However, despite this, the massive beast army continued to surge forward endlessly from behind.
