"Such a strong resistance!"
Even if this isn't the location of the dimensional gate, it's definitely an important base for the Heavenly Puppet Sect.
Nangong Feng, get everyone ready, we're ready to act at any moment!
A Huo, observing the battle below, gave the order.
Led by the machine legion, some gaps appeared in the formation within the valley. The human soldiers of the Chen Kingdom immediately rushed into the valley and engaged in close combat with the disciples of the Heavenly Puppet Sect within the formation, beginning a fierce battle.
"Seven on the left, three on the right, attack upwards! This can break through the formation's base."
The generals who rushed into the valley were all wearing Auxiliary Intelligence Brain. These Auxiliary Intelligence Brain were connected to the Spirit Network and had a certain computing power, which could help the generals break the formations in the valley.
As the former number one talisman-cultivating sect, the Heavenly Puppet Sect's protective formations were naturally extraordinary.
Therefore, even though A Huo had Taichu allocate 20% of the computing power from the Spirit Network to break the formation here, it was still impossible to breach the place in a short time.
" Taichu, could you give us another 10% more computing power?"
Seeing that the human soldiers who had stormed into the valley were beginning to suffer casualties, A Huo couldn't help but urge Taichu.
"Then I'll allocate another 10% of my computing power to you; you need to speed up your attack."
Through communication via the Spirit Network, Taichu granted A Huo's request.
The entire operation of the Chen Kingdom now relies heavily on intelligent systems, therefore the computing power of the Chen Kingdom's Spirit Network) cannot be accessed arbitrarily. If too much computing power is extracted, it could affect the normal operation of the Chen Kingdom's society, which could potentially lead to very negative consequences.
Therefore, apart from Chen Mu, even Taichu can only utilize up to 50% of the Spirit Network's computing power. Under normal circumstances, Taichu would only dare to use up to 30% of the computing power; she was afraid that using more would cause problems.
Given enough time, A Huo could break the formation in the valley without even needing to use the computing power of the Spirit Network.
The problem is that this formation is usually hidden and constantly changing. When it is not activated, it is impossible to calculate and break it. Only when the army attacks it can the full picture of the formation be seen.
Therefore, A Huo can only attack while breaking through the formation, which requires a huge amount of computing power to break through the formation quickly.
" Nangong Feng, we can't wait any longer! Let's make our move."
"Yes!"
Although the plane master of the Heavenly Puppet Sect has not yet made a move, A Huo can't wait any longer. He drew the longsword from his waist and led the Demon-Slaying Sword in a general attack into the depths of the valley.
" Demon-Slaying Battle Techniques: Demon Slaying with One Sword!"
Of the Chen Kingdom's three elite legions, the other two have more than 10,000 members, but the Demon-Slaying Sword is different. It takes an elite route, and to this day, its total number of members is still only 3,000.
But the attack launched by these three thousand men, led by A Huo, was incredibly powerful.
A towering sword light condensed in the air, stretching across the sky; this power was so terrifying that it seemed capable of shaking even the gods.
When... pfft!
The overwhelming sword light slashed down, instantly splitting open the defensive barrier above the valley. The remaining force of the sword light left a huge crack nearly a hundred feet long in the valley.
"Kill them!!"
Upon seeing the Demon-Slaying Sword, which resembled a god, the Chen Kingdom soldiers in the valley reached their peak morale once again. They marched into the depths of the valley through the gap cleaved by the sword light, searching for the dimensional gate of the Heavenly Puppet Sect.
"Again! Demon-Slaying Battle Techniques, Triple Slash!"
A Huo showed no sign of stopping. The three thousand members of the Demon-Slaying Battle Formation, drawn by his aura, immediately raised their longswords and unleashed Triple Slash into the depths of the valley with synchronized movements.
Three sharp and domineering sword beams slashed down from the sky, tearing several more gaps in the defensive barrier above the valley. Some nodes in the center of the formation began to flicker, as if they might go out at any moment.
"I see it! The dimensional gate is there."
When the valley barrier was breached, Nangong Feng keenly observed traces of a dimensional portal. He immediately coordinated with A Huo to guide the Demon-Slaying Sword to attack in that direction.
Boom! Clang!
To amplify the power of their attack, A Huo led the Demon-Slaying Sword deep into the valley, confronting the array formation head-on and obliterating the powerful array patterns.
"This is outrageous! You scum of the Chen Kingdom, do you really have no respect for my Heavenly Puppet Sect?"
Just then, five powerful figures rushed out and confronted A Huo's Demon-Slaying Legion.
All five of them exuded Saint Level aura; two were at the Saint Level Early Stage, two at the Mid Saint Level, and one even had the cultivation of the Saint Level Late Stage.
"Haha, those cowards have finally shown themselves."
When Nangong Feng saw the appearance of the Sage of the Heavenly Puppet Sect, he was not afraid. Instead, he laughed heartily.
Although Chen Kingdom's side only had A Huo, a Saint Level being, their momentum was by no means weak; on the contrary, they held the upper hand.
Because the Chen Kingdom army has not suffered heavy casualties so far, there are still at least 20,000 soldiers left. These are not ordinary people, but warriors above the martial arts level.
Needless to say, the Demon-Slaying Sword, under A Huo's leadership, could challenge these five Sage on its own without any problem, not to mention their other trump cards.
"You should have been prepared for this when you dared to launch a surprise attack on the capital of my Chen Kingdom."
Saying these things now will only make me despise you even more.
A Huo, too lazy to say anything more to the other party, directly led the Demon-Slaying Sword to launch an attack.
A Huo had no idea that the Heavenly Puppet Sect would send out so many Sage again. After all, the higher a cultivator's realm, the more they like to cultivate in seclusion. The Heavenly Puppet Sect has a long history, so it's normal for it to have five or six Sage living in seclusion within the plane.
On the other hand, the relationship between the Heavenly Puppet Sect and the Heavenly Court has always been good.
Many of them joined the Heavenly Court after achieving success in their cultivation, so it was relatively easier for disciples of the Heavenly Puppet Sect to break through to the Saint Level in other planes compared to other forces on the Pan Emperor Continent.
Boom! Clang! Clang...!
As the Demon-Slaying Sword's battle formation attacks were incredibly fierce, the five Sage of the Heavenly Puppet Sect could only resist by relying on the formation. However, as the Chen Kingdom soldiers destroyed the formation bases one by one, the formation finally couldn't hold on any longer and shattered completely.
"They're too slippery, let's destroy the dimensional gate."
A Huo led the Demon-Slaying Sword in pursuit of the Heavenly Puppet Sect's Sage, but the Saint dodged his attacks each time. So he turned his spear around and attacked the dimensional gate.
boom...!
The dimensional gate was a black vortex with an extremely stable spatial structure. Even when faced with the combined attack of the Demon-Slaying Sword, it was not destroyed in a single blow.
Just as A Huo was about to try again, he sensed a terrifying crisis.
A force seemed to travel through endless space and time, completely enveloping the space where he and the Demon-Slaying Sword were located.
"Hmph! Since you're so stubborn, I'll make you pay with your lives for this dimensional gate!"
