Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 2598: Chapter 957: Spiritual Cannon Barrage, Great Battle of the Residual Realm (Part 2)

”After a thousand years of peace, only to be struck by such sudden misfortune!”

Listening to the Songyang Alliance Leader’s explanation and lament, Zhan Bingtao snorted lightly and asked:

”In your opinion, my friend, how long will it take to take down the Golden Lion Empire?”

”Half a month!”

The Songyang Alliance Leader replied decisively.

”Just half a month, at most half a month, we must quickly conquer this territory, then advance to Unicorn Mountain, and approach the Gate of Life and Death!”

”Half a month?”

Zhan Bingtao frowned; the timeframe was indeed short.

The territory of the Golden Lion Empire is vast!

During its peak, it could simultaneously host nine Nascent Soul True Masters, which speaks volumes.

After all, only a sufficiently vast territory with abundant resources could sustain nine Nascent Souls.

In Zhongzhou terms, the Golden Lion Empire is comparable to a Giant House, or perhaps the territory of three to four noble families.

Compared to the Eastern Wasteland, one Golden Lion Empire is almost equivalent to three to four small Yu Ding Realms.

Such a vast territory, albeit crushed by the superior numbers of top experts from the Fierce Mountain and Heaven Element Alliance Army, is still too daunting to completely conquer in just half a month.

He couldn’t understand why the Songyang Alliance Leader was in such a rush.

But the other party had already begun making various arrangements.

”The cities of the Golden Lion Empire boast high walls and deep moats, with numerous lower order cultivators and city protection formations everywhere. With our Fierce Mountain Zombie Alliance’s strategy of dividing sects to fight separately, it’s hard to seize them quickly.”

”Let’s hope your sect can put in more effort in this battle.”

”Don’t worry, Brother Zhan. In the upcoming battle at Unicorn Mountain, I will personally take action!”

Upon hearing this, Zhan Bingtao pondered for a while and slowly nodded in agreement.

Comparatively, Unicorn Mountain is notorious and formidable.

The Golden Lion Empire’s territory is vast, indeed, but its forces are scattered.

Yet, these cities scattered within its core are merely sitting targets for our Tianyuan Daoist Sect.

”Fine!”

Upon his agreement, the army’s battle strategy changed entirely from the next day.

Numerous blackened cannon muzzles aimed at the city protection formations that the citizens of the Golden Lion so proudly boasted.

With each command of ”fire!”, even the toughest formation started rippling, violently shaking, and eventually crumbled into nothingness.

Tianyuan Spirit Cannon!

This magic item on a large-scale battlefield is simply an unparalleled tool for siege!

The only drawback is its exorbitant cost.

Each fired spiritual cannon shell expends a massive amount of Ascendant Grade Spirit Stones.

In the entire Mountain Sea Realm, perhaps only the Tianyuan Daoist Sect, after three millennia of recuperation, could afford such profligacy.

Songyang Alliance Leader observed all this, both pleased by the rapid advance and silently shocked by the immense wealth of the Tianyuan Daoist Sect.

If not for the protection of natural barriers like the Gate of Life and Death or the Nether Abyss, what fortress in the world could withstand such concentrated cannon fire?

”Let it be, the Daoist Sect is strong indeed. Even giving them the entire South Border would matter not; I only seek a Fifth Order Spiritual Land to break through to the Divinity Transformation Realm!”

The Songyang Alliance Leader murmured to himself, growing more anxious about Master Li Tian and their plans.

Whether they could take the Holy Land was one thing; whether they could enter it was another.

If entry wasn’t possible, conquering the Holy Land Mountain Gate would be out of the question.

...

In the Yin Yang Residual Realm.

A concerned voice came from Master Li Tian.

”Qitian, are you alright?”

Their gazes shifted from Hong Ye Granny to Luo Chen, who was the last to enter.

At this moment, Luo Chen stood with his hands hanging before his knees, his face slightly pale, hinting at cold sweat.

Slowly, Luo Chen stood upright, flexing his wrists.

”It’s nothing, just overexerted a bit, that’s all.”

Was it truly that exhausting just to push open a door?

Yet none doubted!

The bronze door contained great power, something no mere Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator could forcefully break through.

Even when Hong Ye Granny, under Master Li Tian’s guidance, identified a flaw to target intensely, it was merely the last-resort option.

It was not only time-consuming but invited counterattacks from the bronze door.

Comparatively, Qitian forced it open with sheer physical strength, minimizing the reactive force.

But even just opening a door left the once-mighty Qitian exhausted, revealing the door’s immense weight.

Although they conserved some energy.

A glint arrived from afar.

From quite a distance came a loud shout: ”Who allowed you to enter?”

No one replied.

Before the door, aside from Hong Ye Granny, six others exchanged glances, then two stepped forward.

The Purple Robe Marquis frowned, asking the Hidden Sword Tower Master Fan Wujiao, ”You or me?”

Fan Wujiao patted his sword box, causing a buzz to resound from it.

”Together, let’s avoid delay and complications.”

The Purple Robe Marquis did not decline, immediately soaring into the sky, a purple glow enveloping him.

Fan Wujiao’s movements were subtler, yet shadows spread from his sword box, with streams of Sword Qi filling the space.

The cultivator, apparently an elder from the Golden Lion Empire, witnessing this, changed expressions drastically and retreated in haste.

Master Li Tian, ignoring that side, refocused his attention.

”Qitian, concentrate on recovering Yuan Qi, no need to act.”

”Should enemies appear, Friend Meng, Bai Xuanjun, assist to prevent interference with Hong Ye’s array setting.”

Meng Shentong nodded, accepting the task, then inquired, ”What about you?”

Master Li Tian smiled slightly, flicked his hand casually.

Shimmering streams flew from his sleeve, spreading in all directions.
