Chapter 621: Chapter 177: Arrow Targets Moon Hook Mountain_2
Boom.
A dozen breaths later, Di Lu broke free from the stone locks and regained his freedom.
“To block me for so long, you can be proud of yourself.”
He tore off the black cloth covering his eyes, revealing a pair of completely white pupils, emitting a terrifying glow.
This was one of his seals.
Once he ripped off the black cloth, his entire being would enter a berserk battle stance.
At this moment, Di Lu’s combat power soared to his limit.
This state was not sustainable, and the aftermath was quite severe.
Martial Arts—Dead Eye Blind Dash!
Di Lu’s aura surged violently with dark fury, yet he didn’t bother with Ning Zhuo and instead changed direction, charging towards the Red Flower Camp.
General Mu Lan commanded the battle formation, and the Red Flower Dharma Image recondensed, almost fully formed.
Di Lu, not blinded by rage, was very clear that one of the key points of the battle was the Red Flower Dharma Image.
Mu Lan and Ning Zhuo understood this point as well.
Seeing Di Lu charging over, Mu Lan sighed inwardly, “Ning Zhuo has already done outstandingly; Di Lu is, after all, a Nascent Soul Level powerhouse. It seems I must be the one to stop him!”
Just as Mu Lan was about to leave the formation to fight again, Ning Zhuo caught up.
“Cultivator Di Lu, please halt!”
As he spoke, Ning Zhuo released a mechanism of Golden Core Level.
Heavy Blood Ape·Dasheng!
Yuan Dasheng descended from the sky, landing in front of Di Lu, swinging his palms to intercept.
Di Lu exchanged three moves with him, his curved saber flickering, cutting Yuan Dasheng into three sections.
“Your martial arts are good.” Di Lu commented, stepping over Yuan Dasheng’s dismembered body.
But the next moment, a shadow flickered, appearing behind Di Lu.
Ghostly Blade Fang·Night Tiger!
Ghastly claws stretched out, fiercely stabbing towards Di Lu’s back.
Di Lu stepped forward, not turning his head, twisting his waist and extending an arm, unleashing a magnificent blade force.
The blade force cleaved downwards, directly splitting the Mengye Tiger into two halves!
Di Lu took the opportunity to rush towards the Red Flower Camp.
At a critical moment, the Red Flower Dharma Image formed just in time.
With a soft whistle, Mu Lan, directing the entire Red Flower Camp, struck out in unison.
A blood light burst forth from the Red Flower, instantly hitting Di Lu.
With a loud crash, Di Lu was sent flying backwards.
He crossed his arms in front of his chest, using his curved saber to block the erupting blood light. His feet plowed the ground, traveling a good thirty to forty feet before stabilizing his stance.
Di Lu, with his entirely white dead eyes, stared at the Red Flower Camp with a look of reluctance.
In the end, the Red Flower Battle Formation had been formed!
By accomplishing this step, the entirety of the Red Flower Camp had turned the tide from danger to safety, their powers consolidating into a single entity.
At this moment, they were no longer a burden to Mu Lan and Ning Zhuo; instead, they became a significant force, capable of influencing the entire battlefield!
The Dice Bone Demon God revealed its form, falling from the sky.
Its body was covered in cracks, akin to cracked porcelain, giving the sense that it might shatter any moment.
The Dice Bone Demon God knelt on the ground, bowing towards Ning Zhuo: “Please punish me, master, your servant has failed.”
Just as Ning Zhuo was blocking Di Lu, the Ancient God of Cangyue was also fully attacking the Dice Bone Demon God.
In terms of divine power, the Ancient God of Cangyue was an elder to the Dice Bone Demon God, with a much deeper foundation. In terms of condition, the Ancient God of Cangyue was in good shape, while the Dice Bone Demon God had entered the battle wounded.
Thus, as their respective dojos intertwined, with the Ancient God of Cangyue attacking fully, the Dice Bone Demon God could not dodge and could only endure the blows until it was finally struck down, forcing it to withdraw its dojo.
Once again, the scene returned to the deep night, a crescent moon prominently hanging in the sky.
“Come back first, Old Dice.” Ning Zhuo didn’t blame him, extending his wrist.
The Dice Bone Demon God returned, transforming back into a bracelet.
On the bracelet, three of the six bone dice had shattered, and the remaining three were also severely damaged, nearly to the point of destruction.
“Old Dice is unable to fight again in a short period.” Ning Zhuo realized this, his mood heavy.
“No matter.” Mu Lan shouted softly, ascending into the sky.
She directly entered into the Red Flower Dharma Image, a red flower reflecting on her forehead.
Mu Lan stood as straight as a spear, holding a large bow.
This bow was large, almost as tall as half of Mu Lan’s body.
The bow’s body curved like a crescent, a reddish-brown color with flames of brilliance occasionally coursing over it.
The arms of the bow emitted an ancient aura, warm and stirring to the heart.
From the middle to the ends, bright golden feathers spread out on the reddish-brown arms. Each golden feather was exquisitely delicate and lifelike, trembling in the air with the movement of the bow.
Golden feathers weaved together, less in the middle and denser towards the ends of the bow.
Accompanied by the sharp and upturned design at both ends of the bow, the golden beautiful wings resembled the moment a phoenix spreads its wings—sharp, magnificent, flamboyant, and fervent.
It’s the Red Phoenix Bow!
General Mu Lan drew the bow and nocked an arrow, boldly revealing her most powerful trump card.
Divine Skills — Red Heart Arrow!
Supported by three powers: Military Power, Battle Formation, and National Power.
An arrow shot out, like a phoenix soaring with a high-pitched cry.
A stream of fire, bright and intense, shot straight toward the crescent moon in the night sky.
Bang!!
The flames surged, producing dazzling light and heat.
It was as if suddenly, there was a sun. The night sky was ripped apart, and the ancient god of the pale moon howled in pain and retreated in a panic, quickly disappearing.
The crescent moon shattered like a broken mirror!
“My god!” Di Lu roared, his expression extremely tense.
His will to fight plummeted, and he pulled back to retreat.
“Trying to flee?!” General Mu Lan’s face was deathly pale, and her body shook violently, but she clenched her teeth and persevered.
She bit through the elixir pill concealed in her mouth, and her spirit surged!
She shot a second arrow.
This arrow targeted Di Lu.
Di Lu used an escape technique, desperately fleeing with all his might.
The fire arrow was significantly thinner and far less powerful than the first, yet it still pierced through Di Lu’s body, obliterating his Golden Core!
With a thud, Di Lu fell face-first to the ground.
Due to the inertia of his escape, his corpse rubbed against the mountainous terrain, crashing into several boulders and snapping trees along the way before finally coming to a stop.
Nascent Soul Cultivator, Di Lu, killed in action!
The Red Flower Dharma Image also dissipated in the next moment.
General Mu Lan fell from the sky.
Doctor Zhang immediately flew up to catch her but paused abruptly, transmitting thoughts with his divine sense to alert Ning Zhuo while casting a spell to make General Mu Lan gently float down like a feather.
Ning Zhuo swiftly returned, caught General Mu Lan, and held her as they landed on the ground.
“General Mu Lan’s divine power!” Ning Zhuo, holding General Mu Lan, looked at her with admiration and exclaimed.
General Mu Lan managed a weak smile at him and then passed out.
Red Flower Camp, well-trained as ever, was promptly taken over by a Golden Core Deputy General, with little chaos ensuing.
“Please take good care of our general, Young Master Ning, Doctor Zhang,” the Golden Core Deputy Generals, already aware of the relationship between Ning Zhuo and General Mu Lan and quite trusting of Doctor Zhang, requested.
Doctor Zhang looked at Ning Zhuo: “Young Master Ning, once again we must join forces to heal General Mu Lan.”
Ning Zhuo looked around the battlefield and nodded, “No time to waste, let’s discuss this inside the tent.”
The Nascent Soul Cultivator who had been hiding in the shadows felt awkward.
“General Mu Lan’s Red Heart Arrow was so sharp that it drove away an ancient god and slayed a Nascent Soul level powerhouse with strength surpassing hers!”
“Just as I hesitated about the right moment to intervene, the battle had already ended.”
His myna spoke from his shoulder: “Now, master, there’s no need for us to step in.”
The Nascent Soul Cultivator slowly nodded: “I have no face to show. You go on my behalf and convey the new military order to Red Flower Camp to retreat.”
Myna: “Yes, master.”
Myna delayed a little before making its presence known.
“A Golden Core level demon cultivator!” Upon seeing Myna, Red Flower Camp was put on high alert.
Soon Myna proved its identity and delivered the latest military orders.
Doctor Zhang: “Great, we can withdraw our troops now.”
Ning Zhuo informed him of further details.
Doctor Zhang’s impression of Myna immediately spoiled, his attitude completely turned: “Pah! You’re nothing but vile creatures who stood by and watched us die.”
He looked at the unconscious General Mu Lan and sighed again: “The court of Liangzhu Country’s suppression of General Mansion persists.”
Ning Zhuo: “General Mu Lan’s injuries are now stable. With the urgency of the military situation, let’s withdraw from here and continue treatment on the road.”
Doctor Zhang and the Golden Core Deputy Generals all agreed smoothly.
The withdrawal of Red Flower Camp went remarkably well.
As they approached Mulu Town, Ning Zhuo noticed the military flags of Three Generals Camp and Barbarian Demon Camp.
“Why don’t I see the Golden Halberd Army?” This puzzled Ning Zhuo.
Thousand Peak Forest.
Dragon King Mountain.
The current Elephant King burst into the great hall, pushing open the massive doors.
His huge, burly body made entering the door slightly difficult.
At his waist hung the head of a Nascent Soul Cultivator, and in his right hand, he held another Nascent Soul level cultivator captive.
The captive was none other than Sun Gan!
The Elephant King threw the captive Sun Gan directly onto the floor, his eyes filled with lethal rage sweeping across the room, his voice booming and filling the hall: “The Golden Halberd Army has been annihilated.”
“Where is the Elephant Vein Fertility Pill I requested?”
