Under the command of the elders leading their respective groups, they formed several five-thousand-strong Great Tian Long Formations and advanced to meet the ** Divine Cult's army of two hundred thousand.
For a time, densely packed cultivators filled the skies above Xujiang Town. Sword lights and spell arts of every kind flashed and whistled through the air. Explosions resounded across the sky.
Broken Immortal Artifacts, Storage Rings, corpses, and severed body parts fell like a torrential downpour.
Blood truly fell like rain, and bloody mist filled the heavens. The entire sky changed color, and the stench of blood permeated the whole area. The fighting was exceedingly brutal.
The numbers on both sides were also dwindling rapidly.
Relatively speaking, the Limitless Immortal Sect's losses were much smaller than those of the other two sides. The Limitless Immortal Sect had already drawn lessons from its previous major battles.
Forming appropriately sized Great Tian Long Formations to meet the enemy on the battlefield strengthened their defenses, reduced casualties, and increased their ability to kill the enemy's fighting forces.
Judging by the results just achieved, Great Tian Long Formations of five thousand people were very well suited to large-scale battlefields like this one.
When the ** Divine Cult's disciples attacked the Limitless Immortal Sect's formations, each had to face attacks from several people at once. Most of their own attacks, meanwhile, were neutralized by the formations.
More importantly, any injured Limitless Immortal Sect disciples could promptly retreat into the formations to rest and heal, while fresh disciples stepped forward to take their places. This did not affect the formations' effectiveness in the slightest.
Once injured, however, the ** Divine Cult's disciples could only hold on by themselves or snatch a moment to take a Healing Pill. Otherwise, they would have no chance to rest
