Chapter 340: Fishing up the giant turtle (Part )
In the sky, steam-powered fighter planes roared back and forth, pulling out perfect circular sonic boom rings and leaving long white tails. They swam back and forth around dozens of giant airships above Chujing, just like a group of playful piranhas playing with a group of big blue whales.
From time to time, various types of ammunition were fired from fighter planes, falling densely on the heavy armor of the airship, exploding into balls of dazzling flames.
On the ground, many Iron Wall Army generals cheered and applauded. These guys had enough heads and arms, and the efficiency of one of them clapping was equivalent to that of dozens of people. So the applause was thunderous and the cheers shook the sky.
But after a while, all the Iron Wall Army generals fell silent.
All that was seen was a large amount of flames exploding on the airship. When the flames dissipated, there was not even a trace of gunpowder left on the thick matte armor plates of the airship. The weapons of these steam-powered fighters could not cause any damage to these huge airships.
There was a muffled 'hum' sound.
An iron-gray flash burst out from an airship, and a terrifying force field swept across the entire battlefield. Thousands of steam-powered fighter planes froze at the same time, and the metal components inside the fighter planes began to rust and decay rapidly, and shattered with a "crack".
The mechanical civilization represented by Maria has incredible attainments in metal creations, and their control over all metals has reached an incredible level. This flash is their special ability, which can cause devastating blows to the metal creations of those lower-level civilizations.
As the metal components decayed, a large number of fighter planes disintegrated in the air, and countless hunting army pilots jumped out of the cockpits with strange cries. In this world of absolute spirits, even if they have the cultivation of earth immortals, they cannot fly in the air. They can only rely on strangely shaped gliders, like nimble bats, to glide and fall outside the city of Chujing.
On the ground, a large number of "Ji Luo people" raised their high-pressure guns. Flexible metal meshes were ejected with a sharp roar, and the large nets opened, catching the escaping pilots in the middle, like heavy stones, falling inside the walls of Chujing.
"Eh!" Outside the city, the generals of the Iron Wall Army remained silent.
After a long while, a general with the highest status scratched his head vigorously. Dozens of arms scratched the eight big heads, causing dandruff to fly everywhere, as if it had rained lightly. "You, continue to attack, day and night... I don't believe that we could destroy their civilization back then. Now, this is our own territory."
The Iron Wall Army did not move out.
The hunting troops from all directions followed the order and drove a large number of steam-powered heavy armor, heavy chariots, heavy war beasts, and giant mechas, and rushed towards Chu Jing in a mighty manner.
Then, something happened that left the watching Iron Wall Army dumbfounded.
On the walls of Chujing, large pieces of armor plates were erected, with strange talismans embedded in them. Dazzling rays of light spurted out from the armor plates, and wherever the light passed, large pieces of steam-powered war equipment collapsed and fell off. The hunting soldiers who were driving these steam war equipment howled miserably, and were involuntarily sucked into the air by the strong light, and were directly sucked into the strange pieces of armor plates.
In just a quarter of an hour, the elite hunting troops attacking the city directly "lost" nearly 100,000 people.
"Eh." The generals of the Iron Wall Army were dumbfounded.
How to fight this?Before these guys could come to their senses, a huge cannon with a barrel as long as 30 feet and a muzzle as thick as a small house suddenly rose up on the wall facing them. With a muffled sound of "chi la~ hum", a blood-red strong light gushed out, and in the air around them, extremely fine electric sparks could be seen jumping rapidly with the naked eye.
The moment the strong light was fired, it directly hit the area where dozens of ten-thousand-man captains and two or three hundred thousand-man captains were gathered.
With a roar, the earth shook.
A black and red mushroom cloud slowly rose up, with high temperature and strong light, rolling and spreading in all directions.
At the center of the explosion, a group of high-ranking generals of the Iron Wall Army suffered heavy casualties. Faced with this super-powerful laser cannon that the mechanical civilization used specifically to kill high-level and powerful enemies point-to-point, these guys were completely unprepared and took a heavy blow.
In all directions, countless members of the Iron Wall Army were dumbfounded.
They were not very intelligent to begin with, and all war actions were carried out under the orders of their superiors, so they knew what to do next. Now, most of their direct superiors were blown to ashes by a cannon. This, this, this...
A high-pitched scream came from the distance.
The nine-headed war beast that Chi Hehe had ridden before, there were two or three hundred more of them, connected end to end, like a black cloud rushing at high speed. Among those war beasts, on the back of the middle war beast, there was a Yaksha man covered in golden armor, six feet tall, with twenty-four heads and one hundred and eight arms, with a somewhat childish face, but with an arrogant and domineering air, sitting on a throne carved with a pure gold dragon, with a golden sword.
Several Iron Wall Army captains who had luckily survived the heavy artillery bombardment and were seriously injured but would not die for a while held up their bloody bodies and raised their broken heads, looking at the group of war beasts again and again. Some of them shouted with joy: "Children, it's the second prince..."
The so-called second prince is the second prince of the contemporary Yaksha King.
For the Yaksha people, the lineage of the Yaksha King has a supreme status comparable to that of a god - it was the first generation of the Yaksha King who allowed these tribesmen, who ate raw meat and drank blood, to step directly from the primitive tribal stage into a highly developed and prosperous civilized society.
Although this development and prosperity is built on the hard work and sweat of the Miao people in Kyushu, this is not important.
What’s important is that the first Yaksha King led them from a group of uncivilized primitive people to live a happy life of wearing gold and silver, drinking wine and having beautiful women.
Therefore, all the previous Yaksha kings have enjoyed extremely high reputation among the Yaksha tribe. Their command is highly respected and wherever they go, the Yaksha people rush to pay homage to them.
The second prince of the current Yaksha King is said to be extremely talented. He can be considered a genius among the Yaksha clan. There is a great possibility that he will overthrow his elder brother, suppress his younger brothers, and become the next Yaksha King.
For a moment, the nearly one million soldiers of the Iron Wall Army who had returned to support Chu Jing cheered, and some even knelt on the ground and said to the Second Prince...
Bow down and pay respect to the body of the second prince!
Xing Tianli could still restrain himself, but Xiang Liang would not tolerate this little Yaksha devil being arrogant and presumptuous in front of him.
He picked up a branch from the Mother Tree of the World as the main material, used the Tongtian Ding by Xing Tianli, and with the help of the magical power of "mediating creation", combined with a small strand of the "essence" of the many treasures given by the ancient bronze sword, he used this as a template to forge a strange-shaped spear with a slender body and the spearhead alone was more than six feet long. He threw it with all his strength.
A ray of dark green cold light flashed by.
The long spear tore through the void, and the second prince didn't have time to react at all, and the spear pierced through his head. The spear was embedded in his head, and strands of annihilation Taoism surged wildly, and there were strands of lightning that kept splashing and jumping from the spear.
There was a continuous sound of "swish", and the small hill formed by the second prince's cumbersome heads disappeared.
'Bang.'
The headless body of the second prince, who was sitting cross-legged on the throne, holding a jar of wine and drinking heartily, fell heavily to the ground. The war beast under him let out miserably wailing and launched a desperate attack on his companions like a madman.
The cheers of the Iron Wall Army came to an abrupt end.
Countless people stared in amazement at the corpse of the second prince falling heavily from the back of the frantically fighting beast like a pile of garbage. Several seriously injured captains cried out in despair. "Brothers, the second prince has been killed. We can only avenge him... bloody battle, bloody battle, bloody battle!"
Many of the rules of the Yaksha tribe were probably led astray by some bad guys in the Jiuzhou Legion under Xiang Yu... Some of their rules are very much like the legacy of some nomadic tribes in the Jiuzhou area back then.
For example, if a big shot like the Second Prince died in battle, if the army could not avenge the Second Prince, then everyone from the lowest-ranking soldiers to the leading generals would be beheaded, and their families would all be reduced to slaves!
Therefore, these captains roared wildly, and regardless of being seriously injured, they rushed straight to the city wall of Chujing with their weapons and launched a desperate charge.
From all directions, nearly a million Iron Wall soldiers no longer cared about sending the hunting troops to fight to the death. They roared like wild beasts, waving their weapons in a disorderly manner, and rushed towards the city wall like a group of madmen.
"Oh, this is exactly the effect I want!" Xing Tianli smiled as gentle and kind as an aunt's.
Some of the Yaksha traditions are really good traditions, enough to maintain a high fighting spirit on the battlefield, but sometimes, they can really kill people.
On the four city walls, thick armor plates were erected one after another, and a huge abnormal gravity field swept in all directions. Within the area of thirty-six miles outside the city wall, the gravity field quickly mutated to three thousand times the normal level!The number of troops increased by two thousand times compared to the first time they were used to kill the first batch of Iron Wall Army soldiers who came to support them.
There was a constant sound of 'crackling', and all the Iron Wall Army soldiers who rushed into the area froze up, and heard a sound of flesh tearing like popping beans inside their bodies, and then they fell to the ground one after another.
On the city wall, hundreds of thousands of "Ji Luo people" made their own unique tribe's sharp whistles, like sirens, and carried high-speed light energy cannons that were almost as big as their bodies, and "bang bang bang" them to place the ten-foot-long gun barrels on the battlements of the city wall.
The next moment, hundreds of thousands of streams of light fell, and with every blink of an eye, every high-speed light energy cannon fired thousands of fist-sized high-energy light bombs at the charging Iron Wall Army soldiers.
High temperature, high frequency vibration, highly condensed high energy light bullets tore through the armor of these soldiers, penetrated their flesh and blood, and pierced their bodies alive. In the organization of the mechanical army, these high energy light cannons were classified as "conventional weapons", and the limit of their lethality was only that of a physical cultivator who had just entered the earthly immortal realm.
Unfortunately, the average combat power of the Iron Wall Army is not even that of an Earthly Immortal.
Each luminous bullet could easily penetrate more than two Iron Wall Army soldiers, and then exploded fiercely. Groups of high-frequency oscillating light waves covered an area of more than ten feet in radius. The terrible shockwaves shattered the flesh of all the Iron Wall Army soldiers within the range, peeling off the flesh and blood layer by layer from their bodies.
If someone had good eyesight, they would be able to clearly see that these Iron Wall Army soldiers were trembling, squirming, roaring and struggling. Their skin was peeling off, and then their blood vessels, muscles, tendons and periosteum were constantly breaking and exploding layer by layer, turning into minced meat that sprayed in all directions.
The high-temperature light ball quickly evaporated the moisture in their minced meat, turning their blood and flesh residue into something as flammable as charcoal.
As a result, every Iron Wall Army soldier affected by the explosion turned into a human-shaped firework with heights ranging from ten feet to two feet away. The large flames became colorful due to the different trace element composition in the skin, blood, tendons and bones, and it really looked like a firework blooming brilliantly.
In just a few breaths, the densely charged Iron Wall soldiers, their burly bodies, the crowded formation, and the terrifying destructive power of the high-speed light energy cannons caused more than 200,000 casualties among the Iron Wall Army.
Faced with the terrifying mutated gravity field, any Iron Wall Army soldier who stepped into this area was like a fly stuck on tape, unable to move at all and could only be killed by the high-speed light energy cannon.
Only those celestial-level Iron Wall Army generals could still stand up and run wildly in the abnormal gravity field. Some even threw various throwing weapons such as flying knives, flywheels, javelins, and caltrop balls at the priests on the city wall while running.
Under the influence of the abnormal gravity field, these guys lost more than 90% of their throwing accuracy, but there were still some Yaksha generals with extraordinary talents. Their thrown weapons forcibly crossed dozens of miles and hit the priests on the city wall.
These "sacrificial naked people" were essentially ghost slaves who had seized the bodies of the immortal wanderers. Their bodies were made by Xing Tianli, and the weakest of them were enough to compete with the half-step golden immortal realm. Facing ordinary weapons thrown by a mere celestial being, and weakened by the abnormal gravity field that stretched for dozens of miles...these weapons did not even allow them to move.
But when acting, you have to act the whole thing.
Any 'Ji Luo Ren' who was hit by these weapons howled miserably, spitting out blood, flew backwards, and fell directly off the city wall. However, when a 'Ji Luo Ren' was knocked away, three or five 'Ji Luo Ren' carrying the same high-speed light energy cannons quickly filled his position.
As a result, the firepower became more and more violent.
Among these newly recruited "Ji Luo people", there were also some who worked in groups of three or five, carrying a number of "heavy ion sniper cannons" that were slender in shape and exuded a subtle and dangerous aura.
Along with the 'buzzing' sound of charging, dim rays of light, almost invisible to the naked eye, and extremely lethal high-energy particle streams were silently ejected and hit the heads of these fairyland generals.
The heads vaporized silently, showing the strength of the Yaksha people to the fullest. Even if one head was evaporated, they still had several heads, enough to control their bodies and throw more weapons.
So, one head, three heads, five heads... More and more sniper guns were deployed, and often there were more than a dozen sniper guns to deal with a celestial-level general.
These celestial-level generals usually have more than three and less than eight heads.
More than a dozen sniper guns fired at the same time, and if one was unlucky, all the heads would evaporate at the same time, and these guys would fall heavily to the ground. Under the influence of the abnormal gravity field, the sound they made when they fell on the spot was comparable to the sound of falling from a height of thousands of feet.
The sound of "bang bang" of falling objects on the street was heard continuously.
Among the generals of the Iron Wall Army, the few dozen Golden Immortal-level centurions who had survived the previous bombardment roared and jumped forward frantically like fleas in the gravity field of three thousand times.
Under a normal gravity field, these guys can cross thousands of mountains and rivers on Yaksha Star with a light leap, and jumping three to five thousand miles is a normal thing... But Xing Tianli is doomed to die. There is a three thousand times mutated gravity field superimposed here. Even if they are Golden Immortal-level beings, their bodies are larger and heavier, and the gravity damage they suffer is more severe.
These guys gritted their teeth and tried their best to jump forward, but they could only jump forward three to five miles.
And every time they jumped, they would land in a very awkward position, sinking more than a mile into the ground. They did not have the magical power to escape underground, nor were they used to traveling underground, so they had to climb out of the pit with great difficulty before they could continue to move forward for the next jump.
In short, it was extremely embarrassing.
The Yaksha people had never encountered such a tough opponent... They didn't even have the concept of "gravity field" in their minds. They never dreamed that someone could distort the gravity field and use gravity directly, making it impossible for their powerful bodies to exert their due combat power.
After much hard work, I jumped into a big hole, climbed out of the hole, jumped again, and there was another big hole...
It took more than twenty Golden Immortal Captains a full half a quarter of an hour to finally cross the thirty-six-mile-long gravity field and arrive at the city wall of Chujing... something that made them collapse happened.
The walls of Chujing were wrapped in a thick energy shield. No matter how hard they bombarded them, the energy shield, which was strong enough to withstand the full-strength attack of the Golden Immortal Great Perfection Realm, did not move at all... These Golden Immortals were so angry that they wanted to jump up and directly climb onto the walls of Chujing...
Well, the city wall of Chujing was originally extremely high, nearly a hundred miles high, and Xing Tianli erected armor plates dozens of feet high on the city wall, and there was also an energy shield dozens of feet high flashing above it...
These thousand-man commanders jumped and panted dozens of times. Under the gravity field of three thousand times, they could only jump up to a mile high at most. They were simply unable to cross the hopeless triple combination of city walls, armor plates and energy shields.
"How could this happen?" A senior captain who was the strongest and had the most heads and arms burst into tears!(End of this chapter)
