Berserk God of War

Changyong Emperor’s fist tightened slightly.

But he immediately took a deep breath and said coldly, ”Changyi Emperor, take men at once and smash the barrier array base we just encountered... Changle Emperor, follow me and use the Soldier Killing Array again to blast Nidao City to pieces, and while we’re at it, slaughter all those disguised refugees, leave not a single one alive!”

Shattering the array base, of course, was to avoid repeating the same mistake and letting their Qianyuan Holy Demon Soldiers be cut in half again.

As for bombarding those so‑called refugees, that was to vent his fury, ruthlessly!

With Changyong Emperor’s order, his Soldier Killing Array once more linked to the Qianyuan Army behind him, and to Changle Emperor and countless others. This time he didn’t launch the array’s attack so quickly, but instead wanted to condense an even more powerful Soldier Killing Array Power.

In the previous strike, the forces he linked were not that many, but now he wanted to push it to the ultimate limit.

That is to say...

He would connect to the maximum number of people his Soldier Killing Array could link to, and with a single blow slaughter the so‑called refugees, even directly shatter Shi Douxing’s Soldier Killing Array, injuring all of Shi Douxing’s troops on the spot.

He also wanted to first unleash a world‑destroying strike on the entire Nidao City.

Even if only half of Qianyuan Holy Demon Hall’s forces had arrived, that was enough to support Changyong Emperor’s full display.

Moreover, whether in quality or quantity, the Qianyuan troops were definitely far stronger than Nidao City, so Changyong Emperor was extremely confident.

One had to know, this time he was also linked to Changle Emperor, who was likewise an Emperor‑level existence!

The terrifying pressure rose from Changyong Emperor’s body into the sky, as if black clouds were condensing, as though they were about to press down over all of Nidao City.

This surging aura made countless faces within Nidao City change drastically.

It also made the proud Shi Douxing tremble all over; the aura he had just been exuding seemed about to be crushed.

In this moment, the entire Nidao City finally tasted the terrifying power of Qianyuan Holy Demon Hall, and no one knew whether they could still hold out.

All the core figures of Nidao Sect turned their gazes in unison toward Sikong Jing...

This Dark Wing Commander from Overlord Commerce had predicted and arranged many, many things beforehand, but he had never said the enemy’s Soldier Killing Array could be this terrifying. And right now that aura was still climbing!

How were they supposed to respond next?

Sikong Jing was likewise feeling the terror of Qianyuan Holy Demon Hall for the first time.

Beneath his mask, his expression was faintly grave; before absolute power, many methods were useless.

Sikong Jing had indeed drawn up some follow‑up plans, but any battlefield and any war is full of change. He had anticipated that Changyong Emperor, once enraged, would unleash a terrifying Soldier Killing Strike, yet he had not told everyone the response plan.

And now, he had to adopt a mad countermeasure.

Thinking of this, Sikong Jing took a deep breath and replied, ”We must block this strike. Only if we block it will we have a chance. At the very least, we cannot allow any deaths—every one of our lives is extremely precious...”

”Right now, activate all defensive formations.”

With Sikong Jing’s command, everyone nodded heavily, their expressions solemn as they obeyed.

But at this time, Shi Douxing’s middle‑aged disciple Ah Gun, full of doubt, asked, ”Dark Wing Commander, if all the defensive formations are blasted apart, then we definitely won’t be able to stop them anymore.”

”This is only their first strike; there will definitely be a second.”

Many core figures nodded one after another. If the defensive formations were completely destroyed, Nidao City would be no different from being stripped naked. The battle plan Sikong Jing had previously set would also completely collapse and be useless.

At that point, Qianyuan Holy Demon Hall could charge in wantonly, without any obstruction.

And Changyong Emperor could once again form the Soldier Killing Array and unleash a second terrifying attack. What would they use to block it then?

Looking at the pale faces around him, Sikong Jing under the mask took another slight breath.

The reason he hadn’t told everyone in advance that Qianyuan Holy Demon Hall might unleash a terrifying Soldier Killing Array Power was precisely because saying it beforehand would only crush their morale—and because he had a plan that he wasn’t sure he could pull off.

But just now, he had received a transmission from a Little Demon Beast, so now he could speak.

Looking at everyone, Sikong Jing said, ”We have no choice. We were already much weaker than they are. But I guarantee that after we take this first strike, it won’t be easy for them to unleash a second one.”

With Sikong Jing’s words, everyone looked at each other, baffled. What was the Dark Wing Commander using to guarantee this?

”Our first wave of reinforcements has arrived.” Sikong Jing spoke slowly, giving everyone strong confidence, and this was exactly the content of the Little Demon Beast’s transmission he had just received.

On hearing this, everyone’s bodies shook violently, and they asked in great surprise, ”Reinforcements? From Overlord Commerce?”

In their view, reinforcements should naturally be from Overlord Commerce.

However, Sikong Jing shook his head and replied, ”No, from Willow Leaf Saint Manor!”

Right now it was impossible for people from Overlord Commerce to make it here. His first wave of reinforcements was, of course, the Willow Leaf Soldiers he had notified before coming to Nidao City, via Mechanical Messenger Birds tied to Little Demon Beasts.

Specifically, the Willow Leaf Soldiers stationed all around outside Willow Leaf City.

The reason Sikong Jing had asked Ye Wushen for a large number of Mechanical Messenger Birds before leaving Willow Leaf City was precisely to rally Willow Leaf forces from all around the city to aid in the battle for Nidao City.

With Sikong Jing’s words, all the core figures of Nidao City were dumbfounded. From Willow Leaf Saint Manor?

Wasn’t half of the Qianyuan troops said to be besieging Willow Leaf City right now? How could Willow Leaf Saint Manor still send people to reinforce them?

Sikong Jing, of course, did not explain...

He continued issuing orders: ”Hurry and activate all defensive formations, then send all Spiritual Artifact Masters, Emperor Artifact Masters, and Array Master Bu’s people to the Array Bases of the last two defensive formations. After the defensive formations are damaged, you must repair two of them at the first possible moment.”

”Only this way can the Willow Leaf Reinforcement outside fight side by side with Nidao City to buy us time.”

At this point, Sikong Jing paused, then looked to Shi Douxing and said, ”Sect Master Shi, I must now leave the city to meet the Willow Leaf Reinforcement outside. When the time comes, we will use the aura of the Soldier Killing Array as our signal.”

”As soon as my Soldier Killing Array Energy appears outside the city, you must also immediately deploy your Soldier Killing Array.”

”At that time, we will launch an inner‑and‑outer pincer attack on Qianyuan Holy Demon Hall.”

With that, Sikong Jing cupped his fists heavily to everyone, and then, with a single flash, disappeared from atop Nidao Sect’s Divine Shuttle Ship.

In the blink of an eye, only the dazed, dumbstruck core figures of Nidao Sect were left.

Among them, someone asked in a low voice, ”Dark Wing Commander, can he still even get out of the city now?”

On hearing this, everyone was stunned yet again...

Indeed, in this situation, how was this mysterious Dark Wing Commander going to leave the city?

There were defensive formations, and Qianyuan Holy Demon Hall’s Soldier Killing Array was pressing down. He shouldn’t be able to get out at all.

At this moment, Shi Douxing clenched his old fists and regained his confidence, saying, ”No need to worry. Young friend Dark Wing will have a way.”

Though he didn’t know what method Sikong Jing had, he believed that someone comparable to the Su Old Demon of that year would definitely manage it.

His voice had just fallen... hum, hum, hum!

Layer after layer of Nidao Sect’s defensive formations activated, starting with that outermost formation from before.

Because Changyi Emperor had not completely destroyed the Array Base, it could be opened again...

Next, one defensive barrier after another rose into the sky, a full five layers in all!
