Chapter 1078.
Corpses had been piled up underneath the city walls of the Hanhai Dao Palace.
The grueling battle that had lasted for seven days, although the enemy army had repeatedly attacked the city walls, they had all been hardened by the fearless Dao Palace warriors, and both sides had suffered heavy casualties.
But the problem was that the number of Dao Palace warriors was limited, while the enemy seemed endless.
Not only did they surround the Palace and bombard it with cannons, but they also blocked the support from Hanhai City to the Palace.
As a matter of fact, Hanhai City was also under tremendous pressure and could fall at any time!
Therefore, Chen Mo and the other Dao Palace warriors could only rely on themselves.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The first wave of today’s enemies had just been repelled when an artillery shell smashed down on the city walls like rain, debris and shrapnel splashed and flew in all directions, and quite a few Dao Palace warriors who couldn’t dodge in time screamed miserably as they tumbled and fell to the ground.
As the enemy army advanced their artillery and shortened the distance between them and the city walls, because this round of shelling was particularly fierce.
Fortunately, the outer walls of the Dao Palace had been constructed with the strongest black gold rock at the beginning of its construction, and were able to withstand the power of the artillery shells, or else they would have been blown down long ago.
Nonetheless, the Dao Palace warriors didn’t have much ability to fight back.
This was because the heavy cannons placed on the walls had long since been lost, deprived of their most powerful weapon.
“Kill~”
Chen Mo, who was cowering behind the wall stacks, once again heard the roar of the enemy’s charge, and he shook his stunned head in an attempt to clear it.
Just at this time, a panicked voice suddenly came from the side: “Everyone be careful, spell attack!”
Chen Mo subconsciously raised his head and saw countless points of fire appearing in the air, covering towards where he and the others were.
It was a fireball burning with flames!
Chen Mo could not help but let out a miserable laugh.
The previous attacks from the enemy mages had all been blocked by the Grand Heavenly Master and a group of Dao Palace disciples joining forces.
And now that the Great Celestial Master was seriously injured, and the hundreds of Dao Palace disciples had already died for the most part, just ask who else could stand out at this time and block the raining fire from the enemy?
Chen Mo closed his eyes and prepared to meet death.
The surrounding Dao Palace warriors were similar to Chen Mo, basically giving up resistance and choosing to martyr themselves for the Dao Palace.
At this point, there was no point in struggling anymore.
Then after a few moments, Chen Mo felt that something was wrong.
He was safe and sound.
“Look!”
Chen Mo immediately opened his eyes and immediately his eyes widened.
Only to see that the rain of fire falling from high above was actually blocked by a layer of translucent barrier, and a powerful fireball crashing into it bounced off or exploded.
How is this possible?
Chen Mo subconsciously rubbed his eyes, thinking that he was hallucinating.
However, this was not his fantasy!
“The Great Formation has recovered!”
Someone let out a wild cry of joy, and even though the voice was hoarse and incomparable, it was as if it had given the surrounding warriors a shot in the arm.
Another person shouted, “Great Celestial Master, it must be a Great Celestial Master!”
Chen Mo nodded.
Yes, besides the Great Celestial Master, who else could restore the Palace Protector Formation?
In the next moment, an unspeakable aura surged from the direction of the Dao Palace, instantly sweeping across the entire city wall.
Chen Mo and the other Dao Palace warriors immediately had a feeling like a spring breeze, their entire bodies were warm and comfortable, and the wounds on their bodies began to heal.
It was like a divine miracle!
“Quickly, quickly, kill them!”
The enemies besieging the Dao Palace had of course witnessed this miraculous sight, and their leader let out a roar of fury and growl, “The first one to charge up the walls will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold, and be crowned as a Marquis of Ten Thousand Households!”
The enemies who were stimulated by the heavy reward roared, one by one, they carried the ladder with red eyes and desperately rushed towards the city wall.
Chen Mo once again gripped the weapon in his hand and prepared to block the enemy.
Just at this time, a tall figure suddenly appeared beside him.
The visitor wore a turquoise-colored Taoist robe, his appearance was extremely handsome, and his entire person emitted a faint glow, as if he was a man of the gods.
Chen Mo’s breathing stopped.
State Master!
He instantly recognized this suddenly appearing Taoist, who was none other than the Great Zhou State Master who was supposed to be dormant within the Dao Palace.
Wang Duan!
Although this Great Zhou State Master had been dormant for many years, his mighty name was still being spread amongst countless people.
The supreme Empress Wu Wu was his disciple, as was the invincible God of War, Ling Zhi Yuan, whose invention of the cannons changed the situation of war and left behind countless legends.
Even though Empress Wu Jiu repeatedly denied it, many people believed that Wang Chen had already sat down and ascended.
What remained in the Hanhai Dao Palace was merely a shell.
However, this State Master was still the spiritual leader of Great Zhou!
Chen Mo had never imagined that the State Master that he and the others had fought so hard to protect had actually appeared alive in front of him.
Chen Mo completely froze.
He wasn’t the only one who froze, the surrounding Dao Palace warriors were all stupefied and lost their ability to speak.
Seeing such a scene, Wang Dust smiled faintly and said, “You guys have worked hard, leave it to me next!”
As soon as the words fell, he probed his hand and grabbed a large sword before leaping down the high city wall.
Bang!
Wang Dust landed steadily on the open space in front of the city wall, facing the enemy’s thousands of troops.
And at this moment the enemy was stunned.
Only after a moment did one of the officer leaders roar sternly, “What are you all waiting for, kill him!”
As amazing as Wang Dust acted, he was ultimately just one person, and so many soldiers swarmed around him that they could drown him!
As if waking up from a dream, a group of enemy soldiers dropped their ladders and drew their swords and sabers and rushed towards Wang Dust.
“Heh!”
Faced with hundreds of enemies besieging him, Wang Chuan smiled coldly and suddenly plunged the greatsword in his hand into the ground.
Boom!
The earth shook violently, and countless dirt flew up, not only isolating the enemies who were pouncing on Wang Chuan, but also blocking the bullets that were shot at him.
In the next moment, Wang Chuan drew his sword and charged forward, blatantly killing his way into the chaos of the enemy army.
His figure was as fast as a ghost, while his swinging greatsword brought up burning flames, and each chop was accompanied by a fire dragon dancing wildly, bringing grievous damage to the surrounding enemies.
Although Wang Chen was unable to wield a flying sword, this Seven Extremities Great Sword contained the natural power of heaven and earth within it, which could greatly increase the spells he cast, causing great additional damage.
And what was even more terrifying was the great sword itself, with its thousand kilograms of weight coupled with its amazing sharpness, no enemy could resist it.
Wherever Wang Dust went, he set off a bloody storm.
And he went forward, stepping over the corpses that littered the ground and brazenly rushing towards the enemy’s center army!
There were not only the enemy’s top generals there, but also a large number of mages.
In a matter of moments, Wang Dust killed through an entire group of enemy warriors blocking him, and his sword power rose with it, his sword qi stirring and sweeping across all existence around him.
And those bullets and feathered arrows that were shot at him were all bounced off by a layer of invisible power!
