Five kilometers away from Ye Yun, Torne was dumbfounded by Ye Yun's sword control technique. He stood there, his scales standing on end as if they would shoot out at any moment.
"Commander, this skill is so powerful in both strength and range, coupled with the previous forbidden-level skill the fellow unleashed, his true qi should be depleted soon!"
A city defense general, having just arrayed his troops, couldn't help but try to comfort Torne upon seeing his expression.
"Half an hour! This fellow has been rampaging in our Kolo Domain City for half an hour! And us? We can't even get close!" Torne finally roared.
"No more waiting! General Maya, your 200,000 city defense troops should be in position. Let your 70,000 shield soldiers, known for their defense, cover the ranged attack units as they charge."
"Commander, we can still stall for time. As long as his true qi..."
"General Maya! Although we are of the same rank, I am still the deputy commander of our Domain City! Besides, look at the direction that guy is heading! Do you want to watch our Divine King's palace being destroyed by this human brat?"
"Do you want to be pointed at and mocked by people from other domain cities later, saying that our Kolo Domain City's 500,000 defenders couldn't stop one human's attack? And let this fellow tear down the palace that symbolizes our Kolo Domain City?"
Torne was practically spitting at Maya's face! If he could, he would have directly taken over the city defense forces. Unfortunately, each domain city had very clear divisions of authority among its generals, especially at the same rank. If he dared to overstep his bounds, death would await him.
"Alright, I'll arrange it immediately!" Maya understood Torne's intention to use his city defense soldiers' lives to block Ye Yun's advance while maximizing Ye Yun's consumption.
Knowing that sending people to their deaths was inevitable, he had no choice. As a city defense general, he was the primary responsible party!
Maya pointed his finger upwards, and a beam of energy shot into the sky, blooming like fireworks. Then, he carefully took out a waist drum from his satchel and slowly hung it around his waist.
Boom...
The drumbeat...
"Hoo... Hoo... Kill!"
Hundreds of thousands of city defense troops, as soon as Maya's drumbeat ended, shouted in unison. Ye Yun was surprised to find that these divine race members' morale soared with this single drumbeat!
"Formation, rise!"
Boom...
The second drumbeat sounded like an attack horn. Over a hundred thousand sturdy divine race members, holding shields over two meters tall, were followed by groups of long-spear wielders, archers, pháp sư, and priests. They intended to approach Ye Yun under the cover of these meat shields and then attack him!
But they had clearly forgotten that they couldn't break Ye Yun's defense at all! Even with Ye Yun's defense reduced by 20% due to various negative status effects!
"It seems the divine race has truly declined!" Ye Yun couldn't help but laugh as he watched the charging divine race members. Then, with several flashes, he advanced instead of retreating, plunging directly into the enemy ranks.
Two to three hundred thousand guardian soldiers, even if they broke through the sword control barrier, what could they do? If he stood still and let them hack at him for three days and three nights, he wouldn't lose much health!
Ye Yun had to admit that the 'Flash' skill was too useful, with only one drawback: the range was too short! The in-game range limit was 100 yards, which severely failed to live up to its description of 'as far as the eye can see'!
It seemed he needed to find a way to obtain more heavenly elixirs that could increase skill levels! These skills were severely lagging behind his progress!
'Myriad Fire Sniper'
Dropping into the enemy ranks, Ye Yun calmly used a skill he had never used before!
Boom...
An explosion erupted out of thin air, and the entire sky within a five-hundred-meter radius around Ye Yun suddenly vibrated. A strange thing happened: all the divine race members within the attack range suddenly stiffened and stopped, then began to spontaneously combust. Divine race warriors, like fireballs falling from the sky, appeared in dense numbers.
What formation, what morale, all vanished instantly.
Myriad Fire Sniper - Simultaneously launches a fire-element attack on ten thousand enemies within the surrounding area, dealing 35% of the caster's attack damage to enemies. Attack range: 500 yards. True qi consumption: 22,000 points. Cooldown: 90 seconds.
This was a skill activated by Ye Yun's 'Burning Heaven Art' at level 40. However, after acquiring 'Fire Refining the World,' many skills had become obsolete.
"System prompt..."
Ye Yun had become numb to the system's prompts. Anyway, the equipment that dropped, except for legendary-grade and above, was all set to be automatically recycled. Even if it could be exchanged for one gold coin, given Ye Yun's current wealth, it was still a significant amount. As for keeping it for the Dragon Palace members, there was no way; their levels were too low, and it would take them who knew how long to be able to use it!
"Insolent human! How dare you!" Maya, seeing Ye Yun charging into his meticulously laid formation and slaughtering his troops, glared with fury, though his heart was pounding with panic.
Ye Yun's performance had far exceeded his understanding of combat power. Let alone himself, even Koro Divine King couldn't withstand such an attack without taking damage!
"What is there to dare?" Ye Yun, seeing that the surroundings had once again become a vacuum, directly flashed towards Maya, scaring Maya into hiding behind Torne.
"Kid! This is the Divine Realm! Not your lowly human lands! You are powerful, we admit that, but that does not mean you are invincible!"
Torne, as the head of Kolo Domain City's three commanders, had to step forward to speak. The guardian army had lost all their morale from earlier, and even the imperial guard was affected.
"What, giving up so soon? If you're giving up, then it's simple. Answer me one question, and I'll withdraw. How about that?" Ye Yun asked with a playful smile.
"What question?" Torne asked, bewildered.
"Who is your divine race's Ancestor and where is he?" Ye Yun continued his slaughter with an 'Electric Arc.'
"Ancestor? What Ancestor?" Torne was stunned, utterly confused by this new term.
"The most powerful person in your Divine Realm who usurped heaven and changed fate. Oh right, the owner of something called the 'Heaven Usurping Ancient Coin'."
Ye Yun expressed his helplessness. This quest only marked the direction and location, but the quest objective was vague.
"That's impossible! You might as well kill us!" Torne had been listening somewhat normally until Ye Yun mentioned the Heaven Usurping Ancient Coin. His entire face changed drastically, as if he recalled some terrifying event.
"Oh? Is that so? Then let's continue, don't stop! I wonder what rewards we'll get if we destroy that building."
Ye Yun's body flashed rapidly through the air. The divine race members had learned their lesson and were now scattered, greatly slowing Ye Yun's killing speed. Annoyed, Ye Yun fixed his gaze on the giant, cloud-piercing structure in the center of the domain city.
"Stop him!" Torne, seeing Ye Yun's intended target, could no longer suppress his fear. If the Domain City Divine Tower were truly destroyed by Ye Yun, Koro Divine King would undoubtedly destroy him.
As soon as Torne finished speaking, five points of light suddenly appeared in the sky, descending like meteors that had heard Torne's prayer, crashing onto Ye Yun's path. Six majestic figures were revealed!
"Haha, Junior Brother Koro, if we had been a moment later, your domain city's divine tower would have fallen." A hearty laugh spread throughout the wilderness, with no attempt to conceal the schadenfreude in his tone.
"Greetings, Divine King!"
Countless divine race members in the sky, upon seeing the newcomers, scrambled to land on the ground and prostrated themselves in a distant bow!
