The King Descended from the Sky, Furious and Ferocious!
On the New Continent.
There aren't many bored people.
Almost everyone had their own things to do. The once desolate and cold continent was now bustling with people, and a large number of Horse-Drawn Carriages were constantly traveling back and forth to transport the Eerie Stones, except for the Crippled Monkey.
Another somewhat boring thing is the Weiwei.
To be precise.
From a human perspective, "Weiwei" is boring, but "Weiwei" doesn't find it boring at all.
The Weiwei is quite large.
Unable to sit inside the carriage, they could only hang at the back of the carriage, dangling in mid-air.
These days.
Ever since Weiwei learned how to ride the High-Speed Rail, he has been constantly traveling back and forth between the New Continent and the Mortal Domain, sometimes going back to see Chen Fan, and sometimes running to the New Continent to see his monkey grandson.
They didn't need to find Chen Fan for anything.
He lay right next to Chen Fan, following him wherever Chen Fan went.
The same thing happened on the New Continent side; sometimes they would run around the depths of the New Continent, and sometimes they would go to check if their monkeys and their offspring were working hard.
I used to live in "Nameless Mountain" for many years.
I dare not go anywhere.
But since his congenital illness was cured, he has become much bolder and often wanders around.
Soon.
The next day arrived.
There's only one day left until the Rainy Season arrives in early November.
Chen Fan stood on the City Wall of the "Rainy Season Defense Line" and looked into the distance. The number of people in Mortal City had gradually decreased. The Rainy Season was about to arrive, and no one would run around anymore. At this time, everyone would find a place to hide safely.
No place in the Four Regions of Jiangbei experienced an early Rainy Season this year.
So although people had some vague worries, there was generally no panic. As long as it wasn't an early Rainy Season, which they had experienced many times before, other forces could get through it safely, unless they were particularly unlucky.
During this period.
Many people want to stay in Mortal City and are willing to pay high prices.
He rejected them all.
During the Rainy Season, the Mortal Domain does not accept outsiders.
Nothing to do today.
After months of busy work, I finally have a moment of peace.
There aren't many forms of entertainment in this world. For the poor, entertainment is unnecessary; earning more Eerie Stones is the most important thing. If they're really bored, crawling into their wives' beds after dark is also a form of entertainment.
Even the wealthy have their share of sensual pleasures.
But.
He wasn't very interested in these things.
For him, the only form of entertainment was standing on the City Wall and admiring the empire he had built.
Every meter of the City Wall, every Cannon Tower.
He crafted them all himself.
He could stand here and watch for Tianyi without getting bored.
This Achievement is hard for outsiders to understand. Just as most people in the Mortal Domain thought that he was in this contemplative state because he was racking his brains to think about the future direction of the Mortal Domain, he was actually just quietly appreciating the foundation he had built.
Just then...
Wang Kui jogged over from the side.
"Domain Lord."
"The inventory has been completed again."
"The Mortal Domain currently has 16.27 million Eerie Stones. The mining progress on the New Continent is fully on track, and over the next thirty days of the Rainy Season, a steady stream of Eerie Stones will be delivered."
"Good."
Chen Fan nodded slightly.
The Rainy Season Defense Line are fully prepared.
Ammunition is plentiful.
Logistics are worry-free.
Compared to the last time when he was forced to face the Rainy Season without any preparation, this time he was fully prepared and everything was ready except for the final push. After Wang Kui left.
He pulled a whistle from his pocket and blew it, while simultaneously opening the sea -Blue Grade silk pouch in front of him—the reward for activating ten Max-Level Buildings.
"Lucky Bag": Upon opening, there is a 50% chance of obtaining a Blue Grade Exotic Treasure, a 30% chance of obtaining a Blue Grade Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, a 10% chance of obtaining Blue-Grade Building Blueprint, a 9.5% chance of obtaining a Blue Grade wonder, and a 0.5% chance of obtaining something else.
The probability is the same as for Yellow Grade Lucky Bags.
He was willing to accept anything as long as it wasn't Blue Grade Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
Such rare and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, if used to upgrade buildings, would definitely be used for buildings of extremely high quality. If used for Alchemy or Artifact Refining, currently no one in the Mortal Domain can produce materials of such high quality.
Everything else.
All of this is good for him.
The next moment
A faint, pale Blue Grade light emanated from the silk Lucky Bag in his hand. He reached Lucky Bag and pulled out a paper as thin as a cicada's wing.
"Name of the Exotic Treasure": Rebirth Tower.
"Exotic Treasure Effect": Blue Grade.
"Exotic Treasure Grade": Building Blueprint. Creatures killed by Defensive Structures within the Camp's area will be completely annihilated and cannot be resurrected. Chen Fan raised an eyebrow slightly. He was lucky; he had encountered Blue-Grade Building Blueprint with a 10% probability. It was an auxiliary type of building. He didn't need it for now.
He has never encountered Strange Entities capable of resurrection before.
But it's always good to be prepared, and he can never have too many of these things.
He crushed the Building Blueprint.
The Endless Night Lord Panel now has a new crafting option, "Rebirth Tower," which he plans to build within the Nameless Mountain in the Mortal Domain.
As for now.
He looked toward another building.
"Soul-Devouring Sculpture"
He obtained Building Blueprint from the Pavilion Master "Under-Heaven Pavilion," the effect of which is that staying within a hundred meters of the sculpture will accelerate stamina recovery. This is just one of its effects.
The effect after reaching the maximum level is as follows.
"Max-Level Effect: Penny-Pinching": When an offensive building is placed within the sculpture's range, the cost of Eerie Stones will be reduced again.
Excellent auxiliary sculpture.
He then placed a "Soul-Devouring Sculpture" every 100 meters along the base of the City Wall, creating a total of 148 sculptures. This construction was extremely inexpensive.
A fully upgraded Soul-Devouring Sculpture only requires 2800 Eerie Stones.
There are only 410,000 Eerie Stones in 148 sites.
The effect will definitely save more than 410,000 Eerie Stones. Building this kind of structure is a sure win, you can't lose money, unless there are too few enemies. That's all.
The "Rainy Season Defense Line" has been completely built.
He built everything he could; the 14.8-kilometer-long Rainy Season Defense Line was armed to the teeth. He had done everything he could. The rest was up to fate.
Chen Fan stood on the Wasteland.
Looking towards the Rainy Season Defense Line that completely encircles the Mortal Domain in the distance, rows of Cannon Tower are neatly arranged on the City Wall, while at the base of the City Wall are Soul-Devouring Sculptures.
After standing there for a long time, he finally smiled with satisfaction.
He turned and walked toward the Nine-Five Dragon Chariot on it.
Once we return and build another "Rebirth Tower," all preparations will be complete. We'll now await the arrival of the Rainy Season tomorrow.
The Eternal Night Continent.
In a deserted corner, the place was completely shrouded in darkness, with no light in sight.
Only heavy breathing could be heard.
After a long while.
Then came a sound of panting.
"Boss, all done."
"You can take your lamp now."
The next moment
A Middle-Aged Man sitting cross-legged on the ground slowly opened his eyes, snapped his fingers, and the surrounding darkness was instantly dispelled, with Yellow Grade light enveloping him like an eggshell.
The man glanced at the two panting Crocodiles not far away, sighed softly, and rubbed his temples with a slight headache.
"Can't you two come less often?"
"I'm bored."
"And"
The larger Male Crocodile lying on the left muttered somewhat absentmindedly, "I was also thinking about whether I could have another cub." "This time, the cub won't have any Heavenly Affliction."
"Heavenly Affliction isn't necessarily a bad thing."
The Middle-Aged Man calmly closed his eyes again, entering a meditative state, and casually replied, "The 'Sky-Swallowing Crocodile,' born with an innate Heavenly Affliction, is, in a way, a case of the heavens being jealous of its talent."
"Although no damage can be fully recovered, even the slightest injury could be fatal."
"But"
"However, it possesses an extremely strong ability to counter Formations and has extremely powerful methods to Formation Break formations, and these Formation Break become increasingly exaggerated as its own strength increases."
"Apart from the Sky-Swallowing Crocodile with its Heavenly Affliction, no one else can achieve this kind of Formation Break technique."
"Leaving aside other things."
"If that guy were here, I wouldn't be stuck here; I would have gotten out long ago."
The Middle-Aged Man sighed softly. If the situation hadn't been so urgent, he would have waited until the Snow Lotus matured, cured Little Flower Heavenly Affliction, and then taken her away. He wouldn't be trapped here for decades, unable to leave.
"As soon as it was over, you started thinking about Little Flower."
The female crocodile lying beside her smacked her tail somewhat irritably. "When you were standing on me like that, I didn't see you thinking about Little Flower." But that was all she said.
After all, they are his own children.
The female crocodile, looking somewhat dejected, whispered, "I left right after I laid Little Flower down, before it even opened its eyes. It's never seen us before, and I don't know if it will recognize us if we meet again."
I wonder if Little Flower is still alive.
The Middle-Aged Man looked up at the female crocodile and said softly.
"As long as you don't speak, it should still recognize you. Normally, the Sky-Swallowing Crocodile doesn't talk."
"As long as it doesn't wander off out of the Nameless Mountain."
"Nothing will happen."
"Perhaps he has already swallowed the Snow Lotus, dominated Nameless Mountain, and become the overlord of Jiangbei."
He finished speaking.
The Middle-Aged Man didn't speak again, but simply looked up and gazed towards the Jiangbei. He knew nothing about the situation on the Eternal Night Front, nor whether the "Eternal Night Hall" had sent anyone to rebuild the Jiangbei Northbank Defense Line.
The aura he left behind in Jiangbei can only deter the Undersea Strange Entity for another three years.
Three years later.
A massive Seabed Strange Tide is expected to make landfall Jiangbei.
At that time
He remained silent and did not speak again.
The Rainy Season is approaching, which is the most chaotic time of the year.
Not just humans.
The same applies to the Strange Entities.
The Eternal Night Front.
"Defense Line Seven," this 97-kilometer-long defensive Suppression the Guandong Plains, is entirely composed of Level-6 City Walls. It was only a short time before dawn, but the sun was not yet visible.
The weather had turned gloomy, with a light drizzle falling from the sky—a sign that the Rainy Season was about to begin, which would officially commence Rainy Season. The City Wall was a full 30 meters high.
The 97-kilometer-long "Defense Line Seven" appears as Heavenly Chasm barrier, Suppression the Coastline of the Guandong Plains and keeping all the Strange Entities attempting to land from the sea at bay.
At this time.
Many people are rushing around on the City Wall, some repairing City Wall, some filling in the Eerie Stones, and others transporting logistical supplies.
Dark clouds loom over the city, threatening to crush it.
The atmosphere was thick with the impending threat of a major battle.
During the Rainy Season, all the Strange Entities receive various enhancements, and this is also the time when the Eternal Night Defense Line faces the greatest pressure. "Quick, quick, quick! I'm running low on Cannon Tower Eerie Stones; I need to replenish them!"
"Here, and here too, the Eerie Stones I had here are gone as well."
Thanks to the people sent by the Eternal Night Hall.
The Defense Line Seven has collected a lot of Eerie Stones from the Guandong Plains. Normally, they should be able to get through this Rainy Season, since the Defense Line Seven is not the main defense line.
The Main Force of the Strange Entities is not with them.
They were considered a secondary line of defense.
The young Builder who had once complained now stood solemnly on the City Wall, gazing at the Seaside, preparing for the arrival of the Rainy Season the following day. Defense Line Seven must not be breached.
Humanity is preparing.
The Strange Entities was also making preparations.
The Rainy Season has arrived.
This added fuel to the fire of the contest between the two sides, both of whom had reasons why they had to win.
In the depths of unknown darkness.
A Great Hall.
A shadow sat on the Throne, its scarlet pupils flashing incessantly. A year had passed, and the Rainy Season had finally arrived once more.
One year ago.
He used Doppelganger Wraith and a disguised ancient book to transmit the news that the Undersea Strange Tide would land three years later to the Mortal Domain.
The intention was to force the Mortal Domain to retreat.
But.
Unexpectedly, the other party had no intention of leaving. In fact, they were developing their business in Jiangbei and even built a building they had never seen before called "High-Speed Rail".
This year.
They continuously sent out Doppelganger Wraith to gather information about the Mortal Domain, all so that after the Rainy Season arrived, they could swiftly and decisively destroy Mortal Domain three years later.
Strange Tide has landed.
The Jiangbei "node" is broken, allowing entry. The first group of Strange Entities to invade and completely occupy Jiangbei will receive a large amount Jiangbei Heavenly Dao's Blessings.
On the contrary.
Those Suppression the north bank of the Jiangbei will also receive many Heavenly Dao's Blessing, provided they can hold onto them.
The "Ghost Emperor" Three-Thousand Emperors, who now leads thousands of troops on the Eternal Night Front, was just an insignificant nobody thousands of years ago. In the Strange Tide, he was considered a consumable resource.
They haven't even developed Sentience.
The reason I've achieved this is entirely because, on the ancient Jiangbei battlefield thousands of years ago, I became the first Strange Entities to break through the "Northbank Defense Line," earning the "merit of First Entry walls" and receiving many Heavenly Dao's Blessing.
Although he received more of the Heavenly Dao's Blessing than the Wraith General did back then.
But for a Little Strange Entity, unintelligent creature, that's already quite good.
Only after that did he gradually grow into the "Ghost Emperor" Three-Thousand Emperors he is today.
He was extremely disdainful of this, and also jealous and envious.
He also participated in the Primordial Era Battle of Jiangbei.
Back then, he was just Little Strange Entity king.
He had many Strange Entities under his Subordinate, and he Subordinate both manpower and effort to kill almost all of them. Even he himself was seriously injured and on the verge of death, and it took him many years to recover.
As a result, the "Heavenly Dao's Blessing" he received was far less than that of the unintelligent Strange Entities who had won the First Entry, especially after he recovered and saw that the other party had become the Ghost Emperor and even commanded an army.
He became even angrier.
He clearly did more work.
Why did he receive less reward than the other person?
Then
After this Eternal Nightfall.
While other Greater Wraith rushed to the "Eternal Night Front" to earn Heavenly Dao's Blessings, he stayed in the Primordial Land, accumulating strength in preparation for attacking "Jiangbei" at any time.
There is only one requirement for occupying Jiangbei.
They slaughtered all Living Beings Jiangbei.
As long as you do this.
He then completely occupied Jiangbei.
"King."
Just then, a voice couldn't help but come from inside the Great Hall: "We've recruited a lot of Strange Entities over the years, and we already have quite a few people. Do we really need to let those guys lead the charge? We can attack Jiangbei ourselves right now."
"Idiot."
The shadowy figure seated on the Throne scoffed, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes. "The 'Jiangbei' node, though shattered, is still a centipede, dead but not dead."
"We must first destroy the remaining nodes in Jiangbei before we can occupy Jiangbei."
"Many people will die during this process."
Why do our people have to die?
"Let those unintelligent, Strange Tides from the Seabed do their thing. Let them break through the remaining nodes, and the instant Jiangbei can be occupied, we will descend upon Jiangbei, slaughter all Jiangbei Living Beings, seize Jiangbei first, and claim the Heavenly Dao's Blessing."
These years.
He reflected countless times on why he hadn't received much reward despite contributing a great deal in the last Battle of Jiangbei. He came to a conclusion: brute force is not the answer.
Use your brain.
Then.
He devised this plan.
The moment the Eternal Nightfall, almost all the Greater Wraith led their armies to the "Eternal Night Front" to seize military merits, while he alone remained in the Primordial Land for hundreds of years.
Extremely patient.
Motionless.
Even when he occasionally heard reports of victories from the Eternal Night Front, or that some Greater Wraith strategist had led his army into the defensive line, he remained unmoved; his plans were all focused on Jiangbei.
First, occupy the Jiangbei to gain the Territorial Conquest Merit.
Then retreat immediately.
We will not head south.
Although conquering the Jiangnan and even the West Pass Plains could bring more Heavenly Dao's Blessing, the Eternal Night Hall of the Eternal Night Continent would realize this and send people to support them.
The Eternal Night Hall could not tolerate its heartland being invaded.
We will kill him at all costs.
This is an extremely dangerous situation.
After taking Jiangbei, he would retreat immediately to digest the Heavenly Dao's Blessing he had acquired, and then join the Main Battlefield of the Eternal Night Front. He wouldn't be Main Force, but would launch feigned attacks on the flanks to gain some Heavenly Dao's Blessing. While preserving his strength as much as possible, he would gradually develop until he had the power to influence the Main Battlefield. This was his plan.
It's almost perfect.
No vulnerabilities were found.
Just wait patiently.
He patiently waited for That One aura left behind on the Nameless Mountain to dissipate, and then, when the Undersea Strange Tide swept across the Jiangbei Node, he descended upon Jiangbei again, and... the mission would be accomplished!! All these years of planning would be accomplished in an instant.
Only.
There's been an unexpected situation.
A force called "Mortal Domain" has inexplicably risen in Jiangbei. He must first deal with this unexpected factor to pave the way for its official arrival three years later.
He can't wait three years.
Firstly, because no one knows how the Mortal Domain will develop in three years, he dislikes this kind of instability.
Secondly, even if he doesn't develop too strong, it will delay the time it takes for him to slaughter Jiangbei. If he slaughters slowly, his Heavenly Dao's Blessing will have to be divided up along with the subsequent Undersea Strange Tide.
That was something he didn't want to see.
"Your Majesty is wise."
The voice that had just voiced an opinion in the Great Hall grew weaker. Although they were all intelligent Strange Entities, the King was clearly more intelligent than the others. "This is the last time."
After a long while.
Sitting in the shadows on the Throne, he glanced at the group of Strange Entities leaders in the hall and whispered, "Eight thousand years ago, the Eternal Nightfall, and we were about to conquer the Eternal Night Continent."
"They have already occupied 70% of the Eternal Night Continent."
"As long as we occupy the remaining Thirty Percent of the territory, the Eternal Night Continent will belong to our Strange Entity Clan."
"But"
"The Heavenly Dao of the Eternal Night Continent used perverse methods to forcibly end the war and protect the Eternal Night Continent for eight thousand years. Although these eight thousand years gave the Eternal Night Continent a certain amount of time to recuperate, weren't we, the Strange Entity Clan, also in need?"
This is the last time.
"Anyway."
"This time, our Strange Entity Clan must conquer the Eternal Night Continent. We have no way out. The Primordial Land is about to collapse. If we fail to conquer the Eternal Night Continent, we will all die."
That being said...
"However, after the Strange Entity Clan unifies the Eternal Night Continent, our status within the Strange Entity Clan will also be very important. I want to set foot on the Eternal Night Continent, but I don't want to live there as a lowly lackey."
"I think that's what you all think."
"Follow me and do it."
I guarantee you a life of wealth and prosperity in the future.
The words had barely left his mouth.
A unified shout rang out from the depths of the Great Hall, clearly indicating strong agreement with these words. In fact, the fact that they could resist the temptation to go to the Eternal Night Front to gain merit and instead stay here to wait for hundreds of years showed that they greatly approved of this plan.
"Very good."
The figure seated in the shadows of the Great Hall, his pupils flickering, declared, "Then, tonight the Rainy Season arrives, and the passage between the Primordial Continent and the Eternal Night Continent opens. We will descend upon Jiangbei."
"Destroy the Mortal Domain."
"Eliminate all unstable factors."
"Wraith One, report on the recent situation in the Mortal Domain."
"Yes!"
A voice quickly echoed from deep within the Great Hall: "Two new Cities and a Harbor have been built in the Mortal Domain. The two Cities are named 'Mortal City' and 'Sunset City' respectively."
The former were merchants, the latter were farmers.
"The City Walls are all Level-1 City Walls, and the Cannon Tower installed on City Wall are all low-level Cannon Tower; there is absolutely no way they can stop us."
As for that Harbor.
"The City Walls are of a high standard, Mortal Domain's defenses over the Harbor are extremely strong. Our Doppelganger Wraith have tried several times but have failed to infiltrate, and we haven't been able to gather much information about the Harbor either."
"However, we can see quite a few High-Speed Rail constantly shuttling between the Harbor and the Nameless Mountain, suggesting they might have found something on the Seabed." "Besides that..."
The core Camp of the Mortal Domain Core, "Nameless Mountain," has not encountered any battles in recent days. It is currently unclear to what extent the Camp's defenses have been upgraded, but judging from the level of the Mortal City's City Walls, the number of Eerie Stones in the Mortal Domain should not be very large, and the Mortal Domain within Nameless Mountain should not be too strong.
"The primary attack method should still be the 'Meat Grinder'."
"Meat Grinder."
The shadow sitting on the Throne in the Great Hall couldn't help but laugh, repeating those three words.
The Meat Grinder is very famous in Jiangbei.
There once was a Wraith King who died at the hands of the Mortal Domain's Meat Grinder.
A large number of Cannon Tower were built on both sides of the Canyon, which are usually hidden in the Cliff Face of the Canyon. They can be activated instantly when defending against enemies. It is a good idea. However, it may be useful for ordinary Strange Entities. If you want to use it to deal with them, it is a bit petty.
This intelligence had already been reported to him once before.
Now I'll explain it again.
This was simply to inform the other Subordinates and ensure information Synchronization before the battle began.
"Gentlemen."
He looked at the four Wraith Kings standing at the front of the Great Hall below: "You four are my most capable Subordinates. What are your thoughts on this?" "Underestimating them."
One of the Wraith Kings shook his head. "The Mortal Domain believes that since the Rainy Season did not arrive early this year, it is unwilling to upgrade its City Walls further. It believes that its current defenses can withstand last year's Rainy Season, and naturally, they can withstand this year's Rainy Season as well."
But little did they know...
"The Rainy Season will come this year."
"If that's all there is to it, Your Majesty, you don't need to descend in person. I can lead an army and slaughter the Mortal Domain."
"After all, the price we pay for this journey is quite high; it's better to wait three years."
The other Wraith King hesitated for a moment before shaking his head.
"King."
"Our primary method of obtaining information is through Doppelganger Wraith. This method has a certain lag; for example, we don't have information about the Mortal Domain from the past few days."
"The Mortal Domain earned a lot of Eerie Stones through the High-Speed Rail, so it's impossible that they didn't upgrade their Camp buildings. Perhaps they just didn't upgrade Mortal City, but used the money for the core Camp in the Nameless Mountain."
"We cannot assume that the Mortal Domain is complacent; otherwise, we would be the ones complacent."
After the two Wraith Kings finished expressing their opinions...
The remaining two Wraith Kings exchanged a glance and then spoke in unison with serious expressions.
"We think so too."
"Hehe."
The shadowy figure sitting on the Throne chuckled a few times before slowly rising, revealing his massive form. His gaze followed the Palace gates, gazing into the depths of the Primordial Continent, and he spoke slowly.
"The defeat on the Ancient Battlefield taught me a lot of lessons."
Even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit.
"You know what, those little words about humans can sometimes be really concise and to the point."
He smacked his lips, a hint of pride in his expression. The Strange Entity Clan revered human culture, and within their Strange Entity Clan Interior's speech was considered a sign of being a cultured Ghost.
He naturally learned a lot as well.
This time.
He paused for a moment before his expression gradually calmed, and he said, word by word, "The entire army will be mobilized, using the 'Heaven Formation' to descend upon 'Jiangbei Nameless Mountain'!"
The words had barely left his mouth.
A collective gasp filled the Great Hall, and disbelief flashed in the eyes of the Greater Wraith Kings.
It's just the Mortal Domain.
Is it really necessary to go this far?
The entire army was mobilized, which meant that hundreds of thousands of Strange Entities were deployed. The cost of their arrival was considerable, not to mention that they were descending using the "Heaven Formation".
These Strange Entities located on the "Primordial Continent" have three methods to descend upon the "Eternal Night Continent".
These are the Human Formation, Earth Formation, and Heaven Formation.
First, send out Doppelganger Wraith to mark the exact landing location at the place where you are to descend.
Then descend through a formation.
The Human Formation is a normal descent; they will appear on the Jiangbei Continent through Formation, but this descent will last for a long time, and will be interrupted if discovered midway.
The Earth Formation, on the other hand, appears instantly on the Jiangbei Continent, has no duration, and cannot be interrupted.
And the Heaven Formation.
It descended from the "sky" above the Jiangbei Continent.
It also appeared at the landing site, only in the air above the landing site.
Generally speaking
The Strange Entities from the Primordial Continent have descended upon the Eternal Night Continent. If they descend into Safety Zone, the area they occupy should be placed in a "Human Formation." If they need to descend into a war zone, an "Earth Formation" is required.
The "Heaven Formation" is often used for surprise attacks.
When they launch a surprise attack on a section of the City Wall, they will use the "Heaven Formation," where a large number of Strange Entities will fall from the sky, delivering a fatal blow to the enemy.
The conditions for using the Heaven Formation are extremely stringent.
The cost was also enormous.
On the Eternal Night Front, few Greater Wraith choose to launch a surprise attack using the "Heaven Formation," as it would be tantamount to sending Dumplings to their deaths. The firepower on the Eternal Night Front is too strong. The cost would be enormous, but the results would be minimal.
There was no way to directly descend from the sky into the Trusted Aide behind the City Walls.
Jiangbei meets this condition and can be a natural candidate.
Is it really necessary for a mere Mortal Domain?
Surprised?
The figure seated in shadow on the Throne looked down at the astonished crowd below and laughed, "Even you couldn't have imagined this, so naturally, neither could Mortal Domain." Mortal Domain must have upgraded his Meat Grinder to an extremely powerful level.
We won't confront them head-on.
"We descended from the heavens, instantly disrupting all the Mortal Domain's plans. With hundreds of thousands of Strange Entities creatures, we swept through the Mortal Domain, completed our mission, Triumphant Return." - Wraith One
"Let's set up the formation."
"Tonight the Rainy Season arrives, and I will see the 'Heaven Formation' fully set up."
"The rest of you should go and get ready."
"Yes!"
The various Strange Entities Great Hall all agreed and quickly retreated.
He was left alone in the Great Hall.
The obese figure seated on the Throne had a resolute gaze that looked through the high gates of the Great Hall into the depths of the Primordial Continent. This time, he was determined to devour a large piece of meat.
Mortal Domain
He had always felt that this force was somewhat strange, and it was very likely a force left over from Primordial Era, which was why he used almost all his strength, fearing that he would fail miserably.
It gradually got dark.
Raindrops were already falling from the sky over Jiangbei.
Chen Fan stood on the City Wall of the "Rainy Season Defense Line," gazing into the depths of the wilderness. The Eternal Night was about to descend. He awaited its Eternal Nightfall.
The Rainy Season is coming.
This also means that he has lived in this world for a year.
He felt the coolness of the rain on his body, and silently gazed into the distance without saying a word.
Tonight.
Or perhaps a few nights later.
A powerful Greater Wraith will lead his army out of the Eternal Night to attack the Rainy Season Defense Line; he is ready.
"Domain Lord."
Wang Kui walked over and whispered to his superior, "I've had everyone check everything, and everything is ready. Mortal Domain is fully prepared to deal with this Rainy Season."
There won't be any problems.
"Good."
Chen Fan nodded slightly. Just then, darkness swept in from the horizon and quickly enveloped the entire world.
The Rainy Season has arrived!
The enormous eggshell completely enveloped the Rainy Season Defense Line, emitting a Yellow Grade glow.
"Boom!"
A tremendous clap of thunder suddenly resounded throughout the world, its sound as loud as Pangu creating the world.
The sparse rain suddenly turned into a torrential downpour.
The rain came.
He looked ahead.
The Torrential Rain, like hundreds of millions of Steel Needles, pierced through the sky above Jiangbei with a tearing force, leaving only a roaring and boiling Gray Fog in sight. A loud rushing sound filled the air.
That was the sound of rain hitting the wilderness Jiangbei.
A familiar scent filled my nostrils once again.
That's the unique smell of rain.
Chen Fan looked at the scene before him and suddenly chuckled. It felt familiar; the rain this year seemed unusually heavy. He turned to look at the enormous "Sky-Piercing Pillar reaching to the sky" perched atop the Nameless Mountain.
At this moment, the Vein Patterns on the surface of the Pillar appeared to shimmer continuously from a distance.
Bolts of lightning struck the Sky-Piercing Pillar from time to time.
If
If that Greater Wraith could have arrived later, the Sky-Piercing Pillar could have absorbed more lightning, giving it an extra trump card and making it more confident in dealing with the situation.
Following Chen Fan's gaze, Wang Kui looked at the enormous Sky-Piercing Pillar reaching to the sky placed on the Nameless Mountain, instantly understanding the Domain Lord's meaning. He hesitated for a moment before speaking.
Domain Lord
"Actually, I feel we don't need to worry too much. It's already strong enough. Our current Bozhou defense line is the strongest among the Four Regions of Jiangbei."
"I don't think even the defenses on the Eternal Night Front are much stronger than ours."
"If we can't stop them either."
"Then no one in the Four Regions of Jiangbei can survive; they will all die. Even without the Sky-Piercing Pillar, that would be enough."
Chen Fan glanced back at Wang Kui, paused for a moment, and then spoke softly.
"If the Strange Entities were truly weak, the Living Beings of the New Continent wouldn't have been wiped out."
We are stronger than before.
But we are not strong enough.
"Our current strength is far from enough."
"Not to mention"
Before he could finish speaking...
A massive bolt of lightning flashed across the Mortal Domain, followed by the slow appearance of a gigantic Pentagonal Radiant Array.
The area of Grand Array formation far exceeds the area of the resting place of the Mortal City.
As soon as the Grand Array appeared, it began to rotate rapidly.
Soon.
A Strange Entities with outstretched arms and claws appeared out of thin air in the beggar's den.
It was as if a switch had been flipped.
Almost instantly, more and more Strange Entities emerged from the Teleportation Formation array. At a glance, there were hundreds of thousands of Strange Entities emerging from the Pentagonal Radiant Array in the Mortal Domain.
Straight dagger.
A gigantic, Strange Entities emerged from the Teleportation Formation, its expression ferocious and excited as it roared through the raging storm, "Mortal Domain, prepare to die!"
The sound almost echoed throughout the sky above Jiangbei.
This scene brought an intense sense of oppression to the members of the Mortal Domain. Almost everyone froze on the spot, a hint of fear flashing in their eyes.
The king descended from the sky, his face contorted with rage and ferocity.
This is how they all feel.
Many Mortal Domain Member have personally witnessed the Strange Entities.
But when hundreds of thousands of Strange Entities hover above your mind, only a few hundred meters above the ground, the oppressive feeling they create is completely different from when facing other Strange Entities.
Some Mortal Domain Member, upon witnessing this scene, had their legs go weak and unconsciously collapsed to the ground.
It's over.
The Domain Lord constructed the Boji Defense Line.
Unexpectedly, the enemy descended from the sky.
However.
Soon
Kong, seeing the Greater Wraith- looking creature roaring in anger, realized that his body wasn't in a falling state and asked somewhat unconsciously, "Hey, why didn't I fall?"
"Why can't I move my body?"
"King"
Beside him stood a Wraith King, its voice trembling as it looked down at the 14.8-meter-long Rainy Season Defense Line below. "That's Level-5 City Wall," it Airspace Ban.' This area... Full Airspace Ban."
The words had barely left his mouth.
The Greater Wraith, which had just been excitedly leading its army in an attack, suddenly froze on the spot, its face deathly pale. It felt as if it were soaking in an extremely viscous swamp, and even if it used all its strength to try to escape, it could not move.
