King of Creation Chapter 2167 - 2152: Childish (Second Update)

With some haste, the Heavenly Wave Army of North Sea led by Ye Zhen set up their formation on the Blood River North Shore, with four hundred Sky-Breaking Dragon-Slaying Crossbows and Flame Spirit Burst Demon Crossbows arrayed in layers.

Various Giant Shields, flashing with countless Talisman Patterns, were set up in layers. The dense sound of military horns and drums reverberated on the battlefield, stirring an intense Killing Qi.

The deterrent power of the Sky-Breaking Dragon-Slaying Crossbow needs no further explanation.

Even the elite reinforcements brought by the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, did not dare to be careless.

One by one, lumbering under thick and heavy giant Bone Shields, and with Guardian Light Screens pushed to the extreme, they advanced from the Blood River North Shore and started their offensive.

But even with the elites brought by the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, the advance was still very difficult.

It’s because the equipment of Ye Zhen’s troops was too sophisticated.

Moreover, their tactics were quite cunning.

There were clearly four hundred Sky-Breaking Dragon-Slaying Crossbows on the side of the Heavenly Wave Army of North Sea, but at most only two hundred were used in any given volley.

Always two hundred Sky-Breaking Dragon-Slaying Crossbows emitted a fierce energy, aiming at the Blood River North Shore.

As long as the late-stage experts of the Dao Realm and Realm King Realm from the Demon Clan dared to rely on their own strength to assault, these Sky-Breaking Dragon-Slaying Crossbows could definitely shred them to pieces in the first instant.

The Sky-Breaking Dragon-Slaying Crossbows wielded formidable deterrence against Dao Realm experts, while the Flame Spirit Burst Demon Crossbows could firmly suppress those of the Realm King Realm and numerous Dark Palace Realm elites.

Every organized assault consisting of Realm King Realm and Dark Palace Realm elites could be suppressed by the concentrated fire of four thousand Flame Spirit Burst Demon Crossbows.

Unfortunately, Ye Zhen’s army depended on the advantage of military armory equipment, never achieving the harmonious fluidity when relying on the strong personal power of soldiers.

The Demon Clan’s army, in contrast, could cause harassment to Ye Zhen’s troops from all directions over a short time.

Particularly the Winged Demon Army of five thousand, without the suppression of Ye Zhen’s Geomagnetic Field, treated the entire battlefield like their own backyard, moving like the wind, coming and going freely, causing significant trouble for Ye Zhen’s army.

However, Ye Zhen’s Mystical Mechanism Avatar was not just for show.

It also caused considerable trouble for this Winged Demon Army.

In a mere half a quarter-hour, this Winged Demon Army had over five hundred casualties, with almost everyone wounded.

All of it due to the Nightmare Roar of the Mystical Mechanism Avatar, combined with the threat of crossbow bolts and Demon Spirit Soldiers, which kept them from acting too recklessly!

The Little Demon was incredibly busy at this time, and it’s precisely because of the Little Demon’s efforts that Ye Zhen’s sixty thousand-strong Heavenly Wave Army of North Sea suffered significant casualties, but mostly injuries rather than fatalities.

As long as the injuries weren’t lethally grave instantly, the Little Demon could save them, changing near-death to severe injury, severe injury to minor injury, allowing those lightly injured to continue fighting without issue.

This was the first tough battle faced by Ye Zhen’s Heavenly Wave Army of North Sea.

Even the Demon Spirit Soldiers, cherished greatly by Zheng Dangshi, lost more than ten lives in battle.

This indicates just how powerful the army brought by the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, was.

Elite!

Truly elite among elite.

Even in this scenario, they continued the arduous advance, constantly pressuring Ye Zhen’s main camp.

Should they manage to breach and infiltrate Ye Zhen’s army formation at close range, leveraging their formidable individual strength, it could lead to exponentially greater casualties among Ye Zhen’s troops.

Possibly even complete annihilation!

Very soon, the Demon Clan’s army encroached within fifteen miles of Ye Zhen’s troops.

At this range, just a few miles more, the Demon Clan’s army would only need a breath’s time before they could burst into Ye Zhen’s formation.

"Your army is doomed, there’s no hope!" Watching the situation between the two battling armies below, the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, snapped his fingers happily, his mood lightening instantly.

"Once your army is crushed, your Blood River Fortress will fall completely, and according to the martial laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, you and your family will be ruined for life.

This Prince thinks it’s time for you to consider your retreat path, or rather, your backup plan!"

At this instant, the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, was exceedingly pleased, the thrill of crushing a strong foe giving him an impulsive thirst to drink three hundred cups.

"Retreat? Backup plan? What do you mean?" Ye Zhen squinted, following up on the Seventh Prince Cong Yun’s words, with a mysterious smile appearing on his lips.

To the Seventh Prince Cong Yun, this smile seemed like Ye Zhen admitting defeat, making him feel quite comfortable.

Yet those familiar with Ye Zhen knew that he was digging a pit for his enemies.

Of course, it wasn’t quite a pitfall, Ye Zhen was merely trying to lull the enemy into a false sense of security!

Happily snapping his fingers again, "Your retreat is simple, just surrender to this Prince, serve this Prince! This Prince has always been eager for talent; as long as you’re willing to submit to this Prince, past grievances can be written off..."

Before he finished speaking, a surge of fishy, damp water vapor suddenly shot into the sky, causing the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, to be momentarily stunned.

"Your Highness, the Seventh Prince, I think it’s you who needs to consider retreat!"

Ye Zhen’s voice, full of smiles, caused the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, to look down abruptly with a face full of drastic change, "Ambush?"

"The Water Clan?"

"Did you set an ambush of the Water Clan here?"

On the battlefield below, within the initially rapid but straightforward Blood River, a towering wave erupted suddenly. More critically, in this surge were boundless Spiritual Power and terrifying giant shadows.

The advancing Demon Clan army near the Blood River South Shore was swept up in it momentarily.

Many gaping maws snapped shut, with two or three Demon Clan soldiers swallowed by those massive mouths in one bite.

Caught off guard, a large number of Demon Clan soldiers were bitten in half on the spot.

Some with formidable Cultivation reacted promptly or were physically robust, frenziedly urging their Spiritual Power to resist the biting of those gaping maws.

However, before they could feel relieved, these gaping maws dragged them into the depths of the Blood River. Once in the Blood River, these Sea Demons, which initially could only exert seventy to eighty percent of their power, instantly rocketed to full strength.

In contrast, these Demon Clan elites had to allocate part of their power to counter the powerful water pressure and river water, their strength sharply declining.

In this rise and fall, many Demon Clan elites tragically perished again.

Within the Blood River, over a thousand black tentacles extended, dragging over a thousand Demon Clan elites into the depths, their assailants being the Sea-Breaking Great Saint.

A monstrous blue whale, stretching three thousand meters long, opened its mouth to inhale, swallowing the Demon Clan elites who had just escaped the Sea Demon attack into its blood-red maw.

In the instant they fell in, the overwhelming Spiritual Power of the Great Saint of Jinghai, like a millstone, crushed them directly into pulp, claiming the lives of more than a thousand Demon Clan soldiers at once.

In the sky, a Ninth Stage Peak Realm King Realm Demon Clan officer, watching this scene, roared in rage.

In the instant of the roar, a dragon tail imbued with the Ancient Dragon Clan’s pressure suddenly appeared from the void. The blue dragon tail whipped out, and that Realm King Realm Ninth Stage Demon Clan officer felt as if hit by a sea of water, instantly splintering into pieces.

Within mere breaths, the army under the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, suffered over a third of its casualties, and alongside prior battle damages, their losses exceeded half.

Worse yet, this sudden attack threw the elite forces under the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, into disarray.

Ye Zhen’s Heavenly Wave Army of North Sea, however, was far from idle; one by one, the Sky-Breaking Dragon-Slaying Crossbows and Flame Spirit Burst Demon Crossbows, under the command of officers of various ranks, commenced precise hunting, further escalating the casualties of the Demon Clan army.

The commander of the Demon Spirit Soldiers, Zheng Dangshi, directly led the elite to charge into the chaotic Demon Clan army, harvesting lives like a grim reaper.

Seeing this, with his face turning blue, the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, roared angrily at Ye Zhen.

"Despicable!"

"Shameless!"

"And you call this a fair battle? You had an ambush laid here all along!" The saliva of the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, nearly sprayed onto Ye Zhen’s face.

Ye Zhen calmly wiped the spittle from his face, "So you, leading a million-strong army to flatten my Blood River Fortress, is fair?"

"A fair battle, how naive!"
