"Just as I thought. There really is a powerhouse no weaker than me stationed within the Cloudreach Sand Expanse. If I hadn't gone and invited Venerable Thunder Lord Diyou, this battle would have been quite uncertain." Hall Master Starbind muttered to himself. "Now that you've played your trump card, while Venerable Thunder Lord Diyou still hasn't personally taken action, it's time to close the net if you have no other means. It's just a pity about my twelve Star Lodge Guards."
By this point, with more than a dozen Star Lodge Guards and several times as many immortal troops from the various immortal realms charging in, the entire Cloudreach Sand Expanse had been turned upside down.
The twelve Star Lodge Guards had charged in, and there had even been some adjustments from the intelligence Du Xin had provided, but nothing had exceeded Great Emperor Qinling's control. However, Hall Master Starbind had actually invited Venerable Thunder Lord Diyou as well. As purple centipede-shaped warships successively passed through the spatial passageways, the situation had begun to slip out of Ao Zhan's control. Even though Hall Master Starbind's twelve Star Lodge Guards and several times as many armies from the various immortal realms had gained no advantage in the Cloudreach Sand Expanse, they had instead suffered heavy casualties beneath the transformed Cloudreach Immortal-Prison Formation. Without other external changes, it was only a matter of time before these immortal troops were gradually devoured.
However, Venerable Thunder Lord Diyou had personally led his forces here, completely exceeding Ao Zhan's abilities. Left with no choice, Ao Zhan could only ask Great Emperor Qinling for reinforcements again.
"Hall Master Starbind is a crafty old bastard. To obtain what he wants, he actually didn't hesitate to trade the twelve Star Lodge Guards he has commanded for many years.
