The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2551: Chapter 2551: Wildly Imaginative

Even if Tiger Roar City is breached and falls into the hands of Hongmeng City, it won’t significantly affect them. Hongmeng City is unlikely to directly seize control over their industries.

”Do you think Tiger Roar City can hold out?”

”For now, it seems plausible. Hongmeng City hasn’t dispatched any powerful figures here. Not to mention City Lord Jing Yan himself taking action, even Hongmeng City’s few Immortal Venerable Peaks are nowhere to be seen. The troops from Hongmeng City outside the city range from two hundred to three hundred at most. Among them, only about a hundred seem to possess real combat power. With such forces, capturing Tiger Roar City is unrealistic.”

”Brother Luo’s words are wise, I think so too.”

”I just can’t understand one thing. A few days ago, Hongmeng City publicly called for a crusade. What is their ultimate objective? If they fail to capture Tiger Roar City, wouldn’t they end up embarrassing themselves?”

”Everything is hard to say. Perhaps the people outside the city are truly just a vanguard army!”

Whether inside Tiger Roar City or outside it, cultivators were eagerly discussing which side would emerge victorious in this small-scale war.

In the blink of an eye, the second day arrived.

Outside the city, Xu Yiming had assembled the guard personnel. In reality, the guard personnel led by Xu Yiming along with the Thunder Warriors numbered less than two hundred.

”Everyone, are you ready?” Xu Yiming asked in a stern voice.

”Please give the order, sir!” Weng Mohan and others responded loudly.

The Thunder Warriors maintained a chilly silence.

”This battle will have the Thunder Warriors lead the assault. The rest will provide support. Once Tiger Roar City is breached, you must immediately take control of the city. If you discover suspicious individuals, you should swiftly apprehend them or eliminate them on the spot.” Xu Yiming continued.

”Understood!” everyone shouted in unison.

Immediately, the thirty-one Thunder Warriors began to move in unison. The Thunder Warriors advanced towards the airspace above Tiger Roar City. Xu Yiming maintained a fixed distance from them—not too near nor far—such that if Xu Yiming encountered danger, he could rely on the high-level Thunder Warriors for defense.

The guard personnel followed at a slightly rearward position, equally advancing towards the air above Tiger Roar City.

”They’re coming! They’re coming!”

”They’re about to launch an attack, notify the City Lord immediately.”

”No additional armies spotted; so far, it’s only the troops that arrived outside the city yesterday.”

A rapid exchange of voices occurred from Tiger Roar City’s side, quickly reaching the ears of City Lord Zhan Huilan and the other high-ranking members.

”They’ve launched an attack. According to news from Hongmeng City, no more strong cultivators have left Hongmeng City. It seems the attackers are merely these hundred-odd men.” one person remarked thoughtfully.

Zhan Huilan frowned, feeling that the situation was not so simple. Could it be that Jing Yan really sent only a hundred men to perish at Tiger Roar City? Dealing with these hundred men, Tiger Roar City’s formation could annihilate them.

After pondering briefly, he waved his hand and said, ”Enough worrying, prepare for battle. I will personally control the big array of the city. You all focus on assisting me with slaying the enemy.”

”Understood!” The present individuals replied.

Inside Tiger Roar City, a multitude of guards mobilized. Zhan Huilan and others began to appear. Zhan Huilan unleashed divine power, connecting with the city’s layered formations. At this moment, the city’s big array was in a fully activated state, capable of unleashing its strongest power.

Zhan Huilan watched the increasingly prominent figures on the distant horizon.

After two breaths’ time, this group would enter the attack range of the city’s big array.

”Come! Come face your doom! I want them to arrive but never depart!” Zhan Huilan held his breath slightly, waiting to launch an attack.

Inside Tiger Roar City, countless cultivators lifted their eyes skyward. In truth, outside Tiger Roar City, many cultivators from nearby cities were also observing from afar.

Finally...

Thirty-one Thunder Warriors entered the coverage area of Tiger Roar City’s formation. Xu Yiming was at the periphery of the formation. In this position, he could move freely.

”Die!” Zhan Huilan shouted fiercely.

”Buzz!”

”Crash!”

Countless beams of light erupted with a rumble. Dazzling beams instantly hid the sky from view. Waves of vast power surged, stirring emotions. A terrifying energy surge swept towards Hongmeng City’s army. Leading the charge were the thirty-one Thunder Warriors.

The head high-level Thunder Warrior immediately swung his arm, and thirty ordinary Thunder Warriors followed suit with similar motions. The next moment, they saw the formation’s light curtain enveloping the thirty-one Thunder Warriors. The blinding light made it impossible to discern the scene within the curtain.

Watching the light covering them, Zhan Huilan’s lips curled into a sneer.

”With this strike, we’ll eliminate about a fifth of their cultivators. Ha, how many more times can they endure such attrition? This mere handful of men thinks they can breach my Tiger Roar City? Truly wishful thinking!” Zhan Huilan scoffed coldly.

Those behind him echoed in soft laughter.

Moments later, as the light gradually faded, the scene became clear. Shockingly, the thirty-one figures remained suspended there, seemingly barely affected.

”What?”

”How can this be?”

”Impossible! Even strong Immortal Venerables couldn’t remain unscathed under the impact from Tiger Roar City’s formation. What’s going on?” Zhan Huilan exclaimed with a look of profound shock.

He couldn’t believe his eyes.

The others were largely similarly bewildered.

”Did anyone figure it out? Who are these people? Why didn’t the big array of Tiger Roar City affect them? Indeed, I remember well that they seemed unchanged at their position. Such strong force didn’t even drive them back? Could they all be Immortal Venerable Peaks?” A city-based cultivator exclaimed rapidly.

Tiger Roar City’s big array was of high rank. Typically, even some Immortal Venerable Peak cultivators would have to ease up when directly confronting these big array attacks.

In fact, Hongmeng City’s ordinary Thunder Warriors could stall some weaker Immortal Venerable Peak cultivators. If alone, an ordinary Thunder Warrior, after being struck by the formation of Tiger Roar City, would definitely be driven back. However, these thirty-one Thunder Warriors indeed constituted a combined attack formation. Under the linking of the high-level Thunder Warriors, the formation’s power of Tiger Roar City paled in comparison.

”Boom!”

While Zhan Huilan and countless cultivators hadn’t yet reacted, the Thunder Warriors launched an attack. Thirty-one Thunder Warriors simultaneously swung their weapons in unison, striking towards Tiger Roar City!
