After listening to Caier’s answer, Shu Yongxiao’s eyes became gentle again. “Your understanding is all right. However, I want to tell you, it is also important to emphasize. The true meaning of an assassin is not three, there is only one, that is, to kill with one blow.”
“The practice level of this Tree Devil God is inferior to mine. I think there are all kinds of ways to kill him, and it doesn’t even need to consume half of my power at all. Why should I go all out and consume myself with only one blow? Think about it. This is not only the true meaning of an assassin, but also a habit that an assassin should really master. An assassin’s attack can never be repeated. Otherwise, it is a failure.”
Shu Yongxiao did not say much, but these short words in Caier’s heart had opened a door to the peak of the assassin.
Shu Yongxiao’s eyes looked at Long Haochen, who was suspended in the middle of the battlefield, and there was a slight change in her eyes.
He must have found out about my attack. Otherwise, he would not turn a blind eye to the domain of the Tree Devil God. But how did he find out?
The huge battlefield of more than 200,000 people was rapidly changing. While Shu Yongxiao killed the Tree Devil God, Long Haochen also took action. A green light shone on his chest, and then the green light turned into an eye-catching Pillar of light in the dark night sky and went straight to the Pillar of the Tree Devil God.
The green light drew a bright light in the air and fell straight on the Pillar of the Devil.
All of a sudden, the Devil Pillar, which had previously been transformed into a huge tree man, suddenly froze, and then withered at an astonishing speed.
The blue light lasted for three seconds, and the moment the light disappeared, Long Haochen flashed a layer of green glow. Long Haochen stepped out of the sky, shining purple and golden lines on his forehead, and clapped his hand on the top of the Devil Pillar.
A scene that shook the whole battlefield appeared, and the Pillar of the Tree Devil God trembled violently, and then cracks began to appear. Originally, these cracks should not be obvious in the dark night, but they emitted a purple and golden glow and had attracted people’s attention.
Amid the loud bang, the Devil Pillar of the Tree Devil God was turned into countless fragments that scattered, while Long Haochen still stood proudly in the sky. A huge milky light of judgment also broke out at the same time, setting off his proud figure and the mysterious and terrifying Sealed Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation, that guarded the hundreds of Tree Devil Gods directly beneath the Devil Pillar.
This was already the third Devil Pillar destroyed with Long Haochen’s hands, the moon had not yet emerged, but Long Haochen had the destructive power.
On the battlefield, the most important thing was the morale of the army. When the Tree Devil God fell, and the Devil Pillar was destroyed, the morale of the 200,000 army of the Devil’s clan was broken.
In the distance, the Legion of Sharp Knives would come quietly in the dark, and it would only take ten minutes at most, and the first round of collective magic bombardment would fall in the heart of the army of Devils. And the magicians of the magic clan, under the pressure of the Sealed Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation, had always been unable to form a system to fight back, let alone lock on these ninth-order strong men in the air.
“I stored that ability just now.” The sound of Ye Xiaolei sounded in Long Haochen’s ear, and then a green light flashed from his chest, and a small figure came out of the light and landed on his shoulder.
Three inches tall, exquisite and small as jade carved, the soft aura of life was not strong, but a pair of dark green eyes were full of wisdom.
This was the little Ye Xiaolei, and she was also the wisdom furnace of Long Haochen.
The elemental Spirit of Light became the King of the Spirit of Light, but she became a brand-new spirit of God.
“Can you store your skills?” Long Haochen looked curiously at Ye Xiaolei that fell on his shoulder. Ye Xiaolei wept with a smile and said, “They are the wisdom furnace, of course they are the most powerful. I can not only store all the natural attributes of the skills, but also use your power to promote their evolution. In the future, you will know more and more how much I have helped you. For example, your skills in the domain of controlling the course of life have greatly evolved. Even the power of the Sealed Divine Throne of Eternity and Creation, part of which coincides with me, will evolve under my influence.”
Long Haochen smiled and said, “When I have a chance in the future, I will also find you a suitable body. I still like you better in your original human form. It’s not fair for you to follow me like this.”
Ye Xiaolei gently shook her head. “Thank you for your kindness. But you don’t understand. Although I was very happy to live in a Dream Paradise, there is extremely lack of sense of security, I am very happy to follow you, do not drive me away. If I really want to leave you, I don’t need your help.”
When a huge golden sword of light chopped thousands of meters and killed all the wizards of the middle and high order that were finally gathered together, the army of the Devils was finally overwhelmed by the last straw and began to rout.
The Legion of Sharp Knives had arrived at this time; they really inserted from behind like a sharp knife. Under the leadership of Zhang Fangfang, who has the Sealed Divine Throne of Wisdom and Spirit, they attacked with all strength.
Long Haochen still dominated the overall situation in the air, while the Light Dawn Demon Hunter group and the Eternal Heroes all attacked on the escape route of the Devils. They used their powerful attacks as much as possible to round up the defeated army that the Devils wanted to disperse, while slowing down their escape speed.
This 200,000-Devils army was the elite of the Devil’s clan! Keeping them here as much as possible was bound to be a huge blow to the Devils. Especially in this 200,000-Devils army, the main force was the Loathe Devil clan and the Bear Devil clan. How much disaster would these two fighting races bring to mankind on a normal battlefield?
It looked like Long Haochen won easily in this battle, but in fact, how many strong men did they deploy? With nearly 30 ninth-order strong men, there were more than 20 men who were strong in domain. Such a force, even the God of Devils, must act with caution. Not to mention that this army of Devils was led by only one Devil god.
Of course, this army of Devils did not give full play to their combat, if not because of reconnaissance failure, and they were given enough time to react, they’d need more effort to defeat the Devil army.
From night to day, the Legion of Sharp Knives pursued nearly three hundred miles. In the end, the enemy wiped out more than 150,000 and only tens of thousands of Devil’s remnants were able to escape.
Among the strong human beings, the one who killed the most was not the main magician Lin Xin, but Ya Ting.
Although the fire meteor shower covered the largest area, it could not be compared to the killing speed of Ya Ting. Her domain, Sword of Kings, was invincible in the army of Devils, and no one could resist her attack. The 100-meter-long sword swept through the chaotic army of Devils with hundreds of casualties. After this war, Ya Ting probably had directly killed more than 10,000 enemies. Many Eternal Heroes who had seen the world for so long couldn’t help but stare. Ya Ting had special ability, strong cultivation and she was an elf, so no Eternal Hero chose her to inherit. However, her lethal attacks and almost endless spiritual follow-up had greatly shocked these Eternal Heroes.
To be honest, the Eternal Heroes had hardly made an all-out effort, and they were more like helping the Light Dawn Demon Hunter group, giving all chances?to these young people. Eternal Heroes were sophisticated. Who could say better about the situation on the battlefield? If the enemy had reinforcements, and reinforcements be strong? If they retain enough strength, they could fully adapt to that kind of situation.
It could be said that this was an unprecedented victory for mankind against the Devils.
Over the past 6,000 years, the Temple Alliance had certainly been able to win some local victories, but in order to prevent the Devil’s clan from going all out to retaliate, in the war with the Devil’s clan, human beings never ever took the initiative to attack, and once the Devil’s clan retreated, they never had run after escaped Devils.
However, now it was different. With the participation of Eternal Heroes and the destruction of two title-level hunting groups, more than 50 Devil Gods were ready to launch an all-out attack, and the Union naturally did not need to restrain at all. Fighting the Devils as much as possible was the target of the Legion of Sharp Knives. To make the God of Devils feel the pain, they completely focused on the main force of the Devil army, and finally reached the goal of bringing the decisive battle to Yu Longguan.
After a whole night of war, even professionals would feel tired. Long Haochen ordered the Legion of Sharp Knives to rest in a dense forest in the territory of the Devil, and asked Han Yu, who was behind to take care of the horses, and led the remaining army to bring all the horses. At the same time, he called a meeting of the Light Dawn Demon Hunter group and the Eternal Heroes.
With the exquisite sheepskin map spread out in front of him, Long Haochen squatted on the ground, pointed to the map and said, “We are in this position now. In the previous war, we almost wiped out all the main forces stationed outside Yu Longguan. Our army did not get much damage under the treatment of sufficient priests.”
The combat effectiveness of the Legion of Sharp Knives was even stronger than that expected by Long Haochen, and the perfect combination of six temples and six professions had confirmed for the first time the absolute superiority of multi-profession joint operations.
“If we continue to march eastward, we will enter the Samo province of the Devil. The Samos are a relatively weak race among the Devil, and they have little combat capability except to withstand the coldness. In previous wars, they mostly served as the task of transporting supplies for the Devils stationed outside Yu Longguan. Han Yu, the news has passed to Yu Longguan now, hasn’t it?”
Han Yu nodded and said, “The news of our victory has been sent back for the first time. Yu Longguan should soon send someone to clean the battlefield and collect trophies. The granary reserves on the Devil’s side are great, especially all kinds of seafood, are well preserved.”
Long Haochen smiled and said, “The Samo Province is the farthest province from the central province in the territory of the Devil.”
