Logically speaking, the Heavenly Army consists of cultivators at the Core Formation Realm or above, capable of marching through the air, making it difficult for lower-level armies to stop them.
However, the Chen Kingdom possesses a large number of rune warships, and the firepower network formed by these rune warships can hold back the Heavenly Army.
Then Chen Kingdom's snipers will open fire, forcing the Heavenly Army to land on the ground; otherwise, in the unobstructed sky, they would be sitting ducks.
In addition, Chen Kingdom's Super Spacetime Corps is also very troublesome. They always manage to appear in the right position to hunt down small groups of celestial soldiers who escape the encirclement.
As the Heavenly King Linlang gazed at the scene reflected in the bronze mirror, the killing intent in his eyes grew stronger. Finally, he stood up.
Thud...!
Without warning, he vanished, disappearing into the void, as if he had never been in the room at all.
Mountain and River Pass, Manju was still using Plane Projection to suppress Divine Lord Xuanji.
However, at this moment, she suddenly felt a pang of heart palpitation, and a rune appeared on her forehead before quickly disappearing.
" Maha Corps, all troops on high alert!"
She immediately abandoned her attack on Divine Lord Xuanji and leaped above the Maha Corps.
Since Chen Mu sent Manju to attack Mountain and River Pass, how could he not let her make all the preparations? Long before she attacked Mountain and River Pass, Chen Mu had already cast a ' Mystic Heaven Fate Momentum Talisman ' on her.
The path of fate is elusive and elusive. Even with Chen Mu's talent and years of cultivating the Fate Dao of Talismans, he could only briefly maintain a ' Mystic Heaven Fate Momentum Talisman ' on someone else, demonstrating the profound mystery of this talisman.
The Mystic Heaven Fate Momentum Talisman can predict heavenly secrets and protect the destiny of its owner. It will actively warn the owner if there is any danger to the owner, which is incredibly magical.
Because he knew that Manju's battle was extremely crucial, Chen Mu prepared in advance and used this talisman to protect her.
Whoa...!
A yellowish-brown fist, seemingly from an incredibly distant time and space, appeared above the Maha Corps in an instant.
" Heaven-Shaking Fist!"
With a deafening roar, even though the Maha Corps was prepared, this punch was simply too fast and too powerful. Even with Manju's domain weakening it, the terrifying punch wave still forced the entire legion to retreat several steps, which was extremely frightening.
"Withdraw!"
After the punch, Manju saw the figure she hated so much in the air.
Decades ago, the commander-in-chief who led the Heavenly Court Army to invade the Nine Nether Netherworld was none other than the Heavenly King Linlang.
It was because of Heavenly King Linlang that the Nine Nether Netherworld suffered a great loss of vitality, and many of her friends died in that battle. It was also because of Heavenly King Linlang that she was separated from her daughter for decades.
Over the years, she has constantly thought about revenge, but she is also very clear that she is no match for him now.
Therefore, she did not hesitate to order the army to retreat.
"Hmph! You think you can just leave like that? Dream on!"
Heavenly King Linlang originally thought that his sudden attack would kill at least several hundred soldiers of the Maha Corps, and that if Manju dared to stop him, she would surely be seriously injured.
But he never expected that his opponent could predict his attack and take precautions in advance.
Although the Maha Corps lost dozens of soldiers in that attack, it did little to quell his rage.
In this battle, at least tens of thousands of his heavenly soldiers will die. Now that he has been forced to take action personally, how could he possibly let the Maha Corps off so easily?
Whoa...!
Another punch, like the roar of heaven and earth, rushed towards the Maha Corps, as if it wanted to annihilate them all.
This is True God powerhouse, whose strength alone is comparable to that of a top-tier military unit.
Although the Maha Corps was exhausted from fighting for a long time, he was indeed capable of wiping out the entire Maha Corps if no strong reinforcements arrived at this moment.
" Spirit Network Projection, Shield of Protection!"
At the critical moment, Chen Mu, dressed in a green robe, appeared and conjured a huge blue light shield, blocking the rear of the Maha Corps.
With a clang, the blue light shield shattered instantly.
Clearly, even if Chen Mu gathered the entire Spirit Magnetic Network computing power of the Chen Kingdom to build a shield, it would not be able to withstand a casual strike from the Heavenly King Linlang.
The higher the level of cultivation, the greater the gap. Although the True God Realm and the Void God Realm are only one major realm apart, they are a huge chasm. In the Chen Kingdom, which has no True God Realm experts, no one can withstand the Heavenly King Linlang.
However, this does not mean that Chen Mu was powerless to resist.
Whoosh! Whoosh...!
The instant the blue shield shattered, another blue shield appeared behind the Maha Corps.
Then came the second, the third, the fourth...
Bang bang bang...!
The propagation speed of the Spirit Magnetic Wave is on par with the speed of light, so even though the Spirit Network shield is always quickly shattered, Chen Mu can quickly condense a new one in front of him.
The power of the Heavenly King Linlang's punch was gradually weakened along the way, and finally it struck the Maha Corps, which was already within the range that the Maha Corps's battle formation could withstand.
"What a bizarre formation!"
Seeing that his attack had failed, the Heavenly King Linlang turned his attention to Chen Mu, intending to eliminate him first.
" Heavenly King Linlang, if I were you, I wouldn't be getting entangled with us here."
You can go check out Heavenly Defense Pass; it's not a good place there.
Chen Mu waved his hand, and a semi-transparent projection appeared high in the sky.
In the projection, one could see a powerful Abyss Devil Race male in the distance kicking down a towering city gate hundreds of feet high, leading a massive horde of Abyss Devil Race straight in and storming into Heavenly Defense Pass.
Do you think I care?
Heavenly King Linlang's face turned cold, and his eyes suddenly shot out terrifying lightning, striking towards Chen Mu.
With a whoosh, Chen Mu vanished and never returned.
What he wanted to say had already been seen by Heavenly King Linlang, but what Heavenly King Linlang would do was beyond his control.
The Thunder Battle Division's surprise attack ultimately ended due to the intervention of the Heavenly King Linlang.
No one expected that the Thunder Battle Division, one of the eight departments of the Heavenly Court, would personally launch an attack, and in the end, it would be the Heavenly Court that suffered the loss.
In this battle, due to the intervention of the Heavenly King Linlang, nearly 10,000 Heavenly Soldiers and tens of thousands of the Haotian Empire troops escaped from the Heavenly Court, but more than 15,000 Heavenly Soldiers and 100,000 Haotian Empire troops still died in the encirclement.
After this battle, the Heavenly Court's military advantage over the Chen Kingdom was basically even, making it almost impossible to crush the Chen Kingdom again.
More importantly, the Abyss Devil Race launched an attack on the Haotian Empire.
At this time, the Haotian Empire was also in turmoil. The Haotian Imperial Family, which was vulnerable on all sides, was powerless to resist the Abyss Devil Race and eventually had to turn to the Heavenly King Linlang for help.
They were all under the Heavenly Court's command, so Heavenly King Linlang naturally had no choice but to take responsibility. Moreover, the reason why the Abyss Devil Race were able to break through the Heaven-Defending Pass was precisely because the Abyss Devil Master Kane of the Abyss Devil Race intervened.
Both being True God Realm experts, Heavenly King Linlang didn't even try to stop him. If Long Bo were to report this to the Heavenly Emperor, Heavenly King Linlang would surely be held accountable.
