In the center of the square, the battle between the Battle Heaven Pavilion Ruffian Squad and the Turtle Field Clan reached a fever pitch.
Just as Xiao Wuyu had analyzed, the Ruffian Squad's original plan was to divide the battlefield and defeat them one by one.
After being reminded by Yan Feng, the Turtle Field Clan began to gather, and they were willing to get injured in order to forcibly drive the members of the Ruffian Squad out.
Seeing his team members in a passive position, Sun Yuan couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "It's all Xiao Wuyu's fault! If he hadn't reminded Yan Feng, and Yan Feng hadn't reminded the Turtle Field Clan, things wouldn't have turned out like this!"
Based on the previous situation, the Ruffian Squad's tactics would succeed if they had just a little more time.
How could Sun Yuan not be furious when such a sudden turn of events occurred during a battle that was about to end?
Lin Heng and Situ Jiannan, however, wore calm smiles. It wasn't that they weren't dissatisfied, but rather that they had guessed something.
"How could someone like Xiao Wuyu make such a basic mistake?"
Lin Heng first casually set up a soundproof barrier around himself, then gave Sun Yuan a reminder.
Sun Yuan was stunned for a moment. "You mean, Xiao Wuyu did it on purpose?"
Lin Heng smiled and shrugged, "Otherwise, I really can't figure out why Xiao Wuyu would make such a basic mistake."
As for Xiao Wuyu's reasons for doing this, Lin Heng is not yet certain, but he can guess some clues. This matter is definitely related to the big shots behind him.
Do they want to see the trump cards of their own Battle Heaven Pavilion disciples?
Or perhaps they have other motives.
The battle prowess displayed by the Battle Heaven Pavilion is indeed terrifying. While it cannot currently threaten the higher-ups of Nine Heavens, given its current growth rate and potential, who can guarantee it won't in the future?
"Master, since our displayed strength has already aroused their suspicion, I think it would be better to..."
Situ Jiannan tentatively said that he had some concerns, but in the end he didn't continue.
Lin Heng nodded. "Don't worry about relationships with any faction. That day will come sooner or later! Remember, in the Nine Heavens, never trust anyone except ourselves. Even if the Five Ascender Factions are helping us today, they only want to use our Battle Heaven Pavilion to fight against the Eight Great Imperial Clans. Once their interests are threatened, they will be the next Fire Clan."
Having heard Lin Heng's words, Situ Jiannan no longer hesitated and looked at Ao Lie with a smile, saying, "It seems the Proud Dragon Squad hasn't really fought seriously in a long time. I think the Pavilion is also quite curious about their current combat strength."
Ao Lie could easily understand the meaning behind Situ Jiannan's words, but just as Ao Lie was about to step out of the restriction, Lin Heng added, "Half is enough."
Ao Lie nodded. "Why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut? Even half of it is already giving them too much credit."
Ao Lie then stepped out of the soundproof barrier and went outside, transmitting Lin Heng's order to his teammates.
Despite their usual Proud Dragon Squad never hesitated when faced with Lin Heng's orders.
Under Ao Lie's telepathic command, the hundred members of the Proud Dragon Squad quickly retreated, ceasing their fight with the Turtle Field Clan. They retreated to mid-air a thousand meters away, dividing into five squares, each with twenty members.
"First team, prepare your Palm Lightning!"
"Second team, prepare your flying swords!"
"Third team, prepare the Heavenly Venerable Talisman Seal!"
"Fourth team, prepare the defensive formation."
"Fifth team, prepare to collect the bodies."
When they heard Ao Lie's last sentence, everyone was in an uproar.
What? They're already collecting corpses?
The most intolerable thing is the Turtle Field Clan; it's blatant contempt for people!
Arrange three rounds of attacks, then start collecting the corpses. Are you Battle Heaven Pavilion really that confident?
Even Yan Feng couldn't help but sneer at Lin Heng, "Sect Master Lin Heng, don't speak too confidently, or you'll be proven wrong."
Lin Heng raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Is that so? The Fire Clan has suffered quite a few humiliations today. If you're truly capable, what's wrong with me being humiliated once?"
This retort immediately silenced Yan Feng.
Knowing that speaking now would be pointless, Yan Feng simply shut up, waiting for the moment when the Turtle Field Clan would win before he could mock the Battle Heaven Pavilion.
While the verbal sparring was in full swing on one side, the real battle was also officially underway on the other.
The Turtle Field Clan, numbering one hundred, actually managed to conjure a gigantic python with eight heads and eight tails using the combined power of their one hundred members.
This is the belief of the Turtle Field Clan; the Yamata no Orochi is the deity they worship.
Seeing the Yamata no Orochi above their heads, the morale of the Turtle Field Clan soared.
In their eyes, the Yamata no Orochi was an invincible being, even if it was just a phantom they summoned, it was absolutely invincible.
Lin Heng, upon seeing this, asked with a hint of curiosity, "Does this Yamata no Orochi really exist? It gives them such great confidence."
Situ Jiannan explained with a smile, " The Yamata no Orochi does exist, but it's just a battle pet kept by the Great Sun Race."
Hearing this, Lin Heng seemed to understand something. Could it be that the Great Sun Race used the Yamata no Orochi to deceive the Turtle Field Clan, thus creating this thing?
Let's see what's happening on the field.
After the Yamata no Orochi appeared, it let out an angry hiss in mid-air, its blood-red eyes fixed on the Proud Dragon Squad in front of it, and a fierce killing intent burst out, as if it wanted to kill all the members of the squad.
Faced with the provocation from the phantom of Yamata no Orochi, how could the members of the Proud Dragon Squad possibly give it any face?
The first wave of twenty-person Palm Lightning was already prepared, and they unhesitatingly aimed their palms at Yamata no Orochi.
'Boom boom boom boom!'
Lightning flashed and roars echoed as Palm Lightning bolts burst forth from the hands of the squad members, bombarding the area where the Turtle Field Clan was located from all directions.
This Palm Lightning is different from that of the lower realm; it contains extremely strong power of laws!
Thousands upon thousands of Palm Lightning rained down, completely engulfing the area in thick smoke from the explosions.
The powerful tremors caused the earth to shake uncomfortably.
The bombardment lasted a full ten seconds. Seeing the commotion, many secretly wondered if the Turtle Field Clan could withstand such a violent attack—enough to kill even an ant in that area.
Before the thick smoke cleared, the Proud Dragon Squad launched their second wave of attacks.
The flying swords in the hands of the twenty team members floated out, splitting into two in the air, then into four, and in the blink of an eye, countless flying swords stood proudly in the air.
As the twenty team members performed their sword incantations, their flying swords pierced fiercely towards the area of thick smoke.
As the thick smoke dissipated slightly, the area where the Yamata no Orochi was located was revealed. When the flying sword fell, the Yamata no Orochi's body was instantly riddled with holes.
The situation below was still unclear, but faint screams could be heard intermittently emanating from it.
Having suffered successive attacks from Palm Lightning and flying swords, the Turtle Field Clan's formation must have already Shattering. At this moment, the Turtle Field Clan members within are enduring the damage from the flying sword attacks.
