Half an hour later, the Devil Race suffered heavy casualties. Less than a third of the many Demon Emperor Realm escaped, and most of them were seriously injured and it was estimated that they would not be able to return to the human battlefield for decades.

The Devil Race below the Emperor Level were almost completely wiped out by the human Emperor Level experts, with only a very few surrendering and being captured.

Originally, it would have been difficult for humans to wipe out the more than 400,000 elite Devil Race below, but after the Black Demon Emperor escaped, they lost the support of high-ranking Devil Race, and the balance of the war began to shift to one side.

In the end, humanity only lost about 500,000 soldiers to annihilate all of these elite Devil Race forces, including the infamous Black Demon Army.

" Yin Zhan and Zheng Fengdao, you will lead the ground troops to Moon Capital Pass to assist General Yue in counterattacking the Devil Race."

Gu Zi'an, you will lead the warship force and come back to the capital with me.

After the resounding victory, Chen Mu didn't even have time to celebrate before issuing the next order for action.

The soldiers knew the situation was urgent and had no objections, immediately carrying out Chen Mu's orders.

On the east gate of the capital city wall of the Chen Kingdom.

More than two hours have passed since Taichu unleashed his power and drove away the Jing Province army.

At this moment, the Jing Province army outside the city had adjusted its formation and was about to launch another attack on the city gate.

Nearly two million well-equipped troops marched towards the city gate, while the Chen Kingdom soldiers on the city wall looked worried and felt immense pressure.

While the Jing Province army may not have gained much from the previous attack, most of the city's defenses were actually depleted during that attack. If the Jing Province army were to launch another attack of the same intensity, the city gates would definitely not be able to hold.

Wow!

Taichu's figure suddenly appeared on the city gate. He coldly stared at Lu Hai and the others in front of him, and his clear child's voice resounded throughout the world.

"Get out! If you dare come back, I'll kill you all!"

As she spoke, she pointed to the sky with one finger, and a large number of dark clouds began to gather in the air, with the sounds of lightning and thunder echoing above.

"Demon, cease your arrogance! Behold my Soul-Suppressing Golden Light Talisman!"

At this moment, the two Emperor Level elders of the Heavenly Puppet Sect simultaneously flew up and threw two dazzling golden beams of light towards Taichu.

The two golden lights swelled in the wind and eventually transformed into two enormous talismans, which slammed into Taichu.

Hehe! What are you doing?

Taichu initially looked bewildered, but after a while, she realized that the dark clouds she had summoned had stopped and then slowly dissipated.

"Hmph! Let's see what other tricks you have up your sleeve!"

The Heavenly Puppet Sect has stood for ten thousand years, which is no small feat. In just the last two hours, they have analyzed that Taichu is a creature of semi-spiritual energy, so they have made a large number of Soul-Suppressing Talisman to deal with Taichu.

However, Taichu was not an ordinary spiritual energy entity. The Soul-Suppressing Talisman was indeed somewhat useful to her, but not very useful.

Pfft... whoosh!

After the Taichu dissipated as white energy, it reformed into a new body, which once again pointed a single finger to the sky and summoned lightning.

Boom... Crack! Crack! Crack!

"You monster, you're asking for death!"

The two old Daoist priests of the Heavenly Puppet Sect held large amounts of golden light in their hands and kept attacking Taichu, while Taichu was not to be outdone and controlled the lightning to fight back against the old Daoist priests.

"All troops, attack! Summon the city gates! Kill!"

Although the method devised by the Heavenly Puppet Sect to deal with Taichu did not achieve its full effect, it did contain Taichu. Lu Hai quickly commanded his army to launch an attack on the city gate.

" Chen Kingdom, prepare for battle!"

Chen Hongjie had no choice but to stand on the city wall, releasing his Imperial Dragon Qi to enhance the surrounding soldiers and prepare for the attack of the Jing Province army.

In fact, everyone knew that this battle was likely to end badly. The Jing Province army was far stronger than the Chen Kingdom. The mechanisms on the city walls were almost all destroyed, and all that was left was to fight desperately.

Just then, a small flying vehicle flew in from a distance and stopped on the city gate in just a few breaths.

" Chen Mu, you've finally arrived!"

Upon seeing the flying car, Chen Hongjie felt a huge weight lifted from his heart and exclaimed with joy.

"Hehe, it's rare to see Uncle Three so nervous!"

Chen Mu stepped out of the flying car, accompanied by A Huo, Mingye, and Chen Duo.

Because they were in a hurry, only the four of them made it back in the first batch, while the others were still following behind in the Pioneer Number Two, and it was estimated that they would arrive in another half an hour.

Chen Mu's Rune Puppet Flying Car is equipped with a small teleportation array, which can directly teleport him from the wilderness to the capital of the Chen Kingdom. This kind of small teleportation array that can be moved at will is not something that just anyone can afford to equip.

They stopped chatting with Chen Hongjie and instead turned their attention to the enemy ahead, their eyes hardening.

"You all stay here and help defend; I'll deal with Lu Hai."

At this moment, Chen Mu found these Jing Province soldiers even more repulsive than the Abyss Devil Race. He showed no mercy and summoned the Five Elements War Soldiers directly.

Runic Body Stage Two: Chaos Battle Body!

Chen Mu charged forward, escorted by ten Five Elements War Soldiers, and headed straight for the elite camp in the middle of the Jing Province army.

"Has Chen Mu gone mad?"

Lu Hai knew that Chen Mu had defeated the Lü Sisters more than a month ago, so his understanding of Chen Mu's strength was based on that time. After all, how much could a normal person's strength improve in just over a month?

Seeing that Chen Mu dared to attack his camp alone, he was secretly delighted, thinking he had a chance to kill Chen Mu, and quickly ordered his men to surround him.

Chen Mu had just fought a fierce battle with the Black Demon Emperor Xilade, so how could he be afraid of a Xiaoxiao thirty-one on the Heaven Ranking?

Moreover, after briefly borrowing the power of the Taichu, he discovered that the activity of neurons in his sea of consciousness had increased significantly. In an instant, his number Thought Thought had increased from more than 30,000 to more than 40,000, and his strength had increased considerably.

Boom! Puff puff puff!

Lu Hai drew a nine-ringed broadsword, incredibly fierce, but when it struck Chen Mu, the blade was completely transferred to the Chaos Space, having no effect whatsoever.

Chen Mu's attacks were incredibly fierce, and each time he struck Lu Hai, his armor would dent.

"How can Chen Mu be so powerful!"

Lu Hai immediately sensed something was wrong. His armor was a ninth-grade magic weapon, and it had saved his life countless times over the years. But in Chen Mu's hands, it was as easy as squeezing tofu.

"It seems we can't fight him head-on; we can only stall him for now. They don't have a large army here right now, so if we keep fighting, they'll eventually be worn down by a large army."

After figuring things out, Lu Hai quickly changed his tactics, focusing on maneuvering with Chen Mu without engaging in a direct confrontation.
