Chapter 704: The First Commander
🕑 Added 2024-12-08 06:01:48 +0000 UTCAt this moment, with Lin Qian controlling the National War Mode, the power of the Huaxia Empire was fully unleashed, and the undead army could not stand against it.
Now that Lin Qian's strength had increased, the Imperial Army's power far surpassed that of Black Demon’s undead army.
Not only had the Imperial Army and Beast Army’s cultivation levels risen to the Transcendence Realm, but more importantly, the troop classes had advanced to high-tier levels.
Although the class itself hadn’t changed, their abilities had. For example, the Strongfeather and Lightfeather troops following Tong Zixuan now wielded fire attribute soul force. Their arrows exploded upon impact, significantly increasing their lethality.
For Gale troops, possessing wind attribute soul force allowed them to move even faster. For Shadow troops, the poison attribute enhanced their assassination techniques, making them even more lethal and efficient.
Unlike the past, when the Imperial Army and Beast Army only wielded Huaxia attribute soul force, they now had a variety of abilities, providing more versatile combinations to adapt to different battle scenarios.
With this absolute superiority in strength and power, once the new Imperial Army and Beast Army entered the battlefield, the tide shifted decisively in favor of the Huaxia Empire.
The undead army was no match for them.
In the sea, where the aquatic races had been struggling to hold their ground, they were astounded to see the Imperial Army and Beast Army subduing the massive Sea Soul Beasts, which had been transformed into undead, effortlessly crushing them.
The Imperial Army and Beast Army, possessing water attribute soul force, were just as powerful in the water, fully unleashing their strength.
The once-dire situation had taken a sharp turn towards victory with Lin Qian’s return, much to everyone’s amazement.
The Huaxians of the Southern Region were ecstatic. As they had expected, the return of their Renhuang Emperor meant that light would soon return to the Soul Martial Continent, and the darkness looming over them would finally dissipate.
Just like what was happening before their eyes: the once formidable undead army, seemingly invincible, was being systematically crushed.
The Imperial Army and Beast Army served as their unshakable shield, invigorating the spirits of all living beings on the continent as they began their counteroffensive.
In the void beyond the world, Black Demon continued to command his undead army, desperately struggling.
But no matter how he directed them, Lin Qian always seemed to anticipate his moves, and the Imperial Army and Beast Army would promptly dismantle his strategies.
It was as if Lin Qian could observe everything happening on the Soul Martial Continent, which further convinced Black Demon that Lin Qian had indeed become the master of the Earth Spirit, the ruler of this world fragment.
Seated on his small asteroid, Black Demon felt despondent. He knew that this war was lost.
The undead army he commanded was no match for the Imperial Army and Beast Army.
Even in terms of command, Black Demon found himself far inferior to Lin Qian. Every small opportunity he attempted to exploit was quickly seized by Lin Qian, who then issued precise commands that would expand his advantage and gain even more ground.
Black Demon couldn’t do the same. In the face of Lin Qian’s leadership, Black Demon was horrified to realize that Lin Qian had left him no openings to exploit.
When Ye Xin had led the defensive efforts, there had been occasional mistakes. But under Lin Qian’s control, there were no errors—none at all.
Standing beside Lin Qian, Ye Xin had been watching him command the National War Mode, and she felt that she had learned a lot just by observing him.
“I never thought Xiao Qian was this powerful,” Ye Xin said with genuine admiration as she stood behind Lin Qian. “Compared to him, my past command was truly immature.”
“Everyone has their strengths. Didn’t you handle the empire’s internal affairs quite well?” Lin Qian turned to her with a smile, gently patting her head and placing an arm around her shoulders as they both gazed at the array of battle screens. “Now, the outcome of the war is decided. Black Demon has lost.”
As Lin Qian’s words fell, Zhao Long delivered the final blow to the last undead general on the Soul Martial Continent, shattering it into pieces.
At the same time, the deathly aura that had filled the sky completely dissipated, revealing a clear and bright sky, returning the world to its previous state.
“We’ve won! We’ve won!!”
“We survived! We did it!”
Cheers erupted across the entire Soul Martial Continent. Blood-soaked warriors, no matter their race, embraced one another in jubilation, overwhelmed with excitement.
Although Lin Qian’s reinforcements had played a key role in securing victory, everyone understood just how hard-fought this victory had been.
But just as the cheers reached their peak, a sinister voice suddenly echoed across the sky. Many people looked up to see a blinding red light tear through the heavens, and a black-robed figure descended onto the Soul Martial Continent.
It was Black Demon in person, descending upon the continent!
Though only a few witnessed this event, Lin Qian and Ye Xin saw it clearly from the Huaxia Palace. The two stepped outside and gazed up at the figure in the sky.
Lin Qian slowly rose into the air, locking eyes with Black Demon. “I didn’t expect you to pay such a heavy price just to enter the Soul Martial Continent.”
In the sky, Black Demon glared at Lin Qian. “Even if my cultivation has been weakened, it’s enough to kill you.”
“Lin Qian, you’ve ruined my plans that have taken countless ages to orchestrate. Today, you will surely die.” Black Demon pointed a finger at Lin Qian, his voice as cold as ice. “You’re merely in the Saint Realm. Even with my damaged cultivation, erasing you will be effortless.”
As his words fell, a terrifying aura exploded from Black Demon, sending shockwaves that knocked down Yuan Zhizun and Yun Rong, who had been preparing to intervene from within the Huaxia Palace. Both fell to the ground, their faces filled with fear.
The sheer power of Black Demon’s aura was overwhelming, capable of rendering them helpless with just a flicker of his presence.
Whoosh!
At that moment, Black Demon lunged at Lin Qian, a black blade materializing in his hand, aiming straight for Lin Qian’s forehead.
But Lin Qian didn’t flinch. Instead, a sly smile appeared on his face. “Since that’s the case, let me introduce you to the First Commander of Huaxia’s Beast Army. He’ll be your opponent. And just so you know, he’s only using less than one-ten-thousandth of his strength.”
Boom!
As Lin Qian finished speaking, a golden figure suddenly appeared, shattering the black death blade with a single blow.
Standing before Lin Qian was a warrior clad in resplendent golden armor, radiating an awe-inspiring presence. Yet despite his formidable appearance, the figure scratched his head and spun his staff lazily around his neck before slinging it over his shoulder.
“Heh, Your Majesty sure is considerate, knowing that this old monkey has been itching for a fight and finding me a little kid to spar with.”
