Chapter 909: Chapter 706: Assault on Shaka

"Report, the Fourth Corps has defeated 2 Radiant Moon Tribes and 4 Shining Star Tribes, slaying 3 Radiant Moon Star Beasts and 27 Shining Star Beasts!"

"Report, the Second Corps has defeated three major Radiant Moon Tribes, slaying 5 Radiant Moon Star Beasts!"

"Report, Colonel Ning Chong of the Seventh Corps has personally slain 3 Radiant Moon Star Beasts!"

"..."

The expected good news came from all directions. Facing the well-prepared Great Flame Army, the various tribes under Shake Territory seemed unprepared, disorganized, and lacked significant resistance.

In fact, if Shake Territory’s leaders had gathered the Star Beasts of each tribe and personally led the defense, they might have been able to respond.

But whether it was because they hadn’t anticipated an attack from the Great Flame, or their control over these tribal forces was limited, or they simply didn’t care about the fate of these outer tribes.

In any case, at this moment, these tribes were like loose sand, crushed by the vast Great Flame Army with its four stationed generals!

"Seems easier than expected?" Wu Shaoyang said.

Major General Tao laughed, "Star Beasts are still Star Beasts, even though they’ve taken human form, their intelligence can’t compare to ours. Moreover, they don’t seem to be very united."

Both Wu Shaoyang and General Li nodded.

"It just feels too smooth." Qin Shang frowned, "If I remember correctly, the intelligence mentioned that the Grey Realm Star Beasts have quite high intelligence."

Major General Tao chuckled, "General Qin, no matter what plans they have, the numerous Radiant Moon Level and Shining Star Level star beasts we’ve slain along the way are all real. They can’t possibly be delivering so many lives intentionally!"

Qin Shang looked at the field of Star Beast corpses left by the Vanguard Corps, and indeed, it was true.

At least, when leading his own troops, he would never waste his subordinates’ lives like this, and the other generals were the same.

Qin Shang pondered for a moment and said, "Either way, let’s remain cautious and stay vigilant."

The Great Flame Army advanced like a hot knife through butter.

And no one noticed that after the army left, greyish-white plant tendrils emerged from beneath the desert’s yellow sand.

All the corpses, whether Grey Realm Star Beasts or Great Flame warriors, were ensnared by the tendrils.

In a short span, the once pale and cold but relatively intact bodies visibly shriveled as if drained of essence.

Soon after, a hot wind blew, shifting the desert sands, burying the shriveled bodies underground...

A few days later, before Shake Territory.

The clash of swords and the burst of spirit light, the intense sounds of battle filled the air everywhere!

On the ground, lower-third-level warriors were already clashing with lower-third-level Star Beasts on the outskirts of Shake Territory.

In mid-air, the battle between Radiant Moon and Shining Star Levels was intensely fierce, with battle zones constantly merging and splitting.

At the center of the battle zone, the most eye-catching figure was a transformed Star Beast, burly and wielding twin hammers.

It was a branch of the Behemoth lineage, the Rock Armor Behemoth, with endless strength!

If not for its beastly aura being quite evident, just by appearance, it would hardly differ from a human.

On the Great Flame’s side, many Radiant Moon experts were almost dominating the opponent; if one couldn’t, they’d send two, and if two couldn’t, they’d send three, utilizing their numbers to their advantage.

But this single Rock Armor Behemoth held its ground against three colonels for eighty rounds without showing weakness!

Then, the Rock Armor Behemoth seized an opportunity, roaring in rage, transforming back into its Behemoth form, its twin hammers growing in brilliance and size, hurling them with all its might!

Rock God Tornado Hammer!

The two colonels targeted by the massive hammer turned pale and immediately deployed defense skills to block, only to be directly knocked flying!

The Rock Armor Behemoth did not pursue but instead, from several hundred meters away, launched a fierce punch at the lone remaining colonel.

"Rock Armor Giant’s Divine Fist!"

In an instant, its right arm petrified, swelling, and rock elements surged to form a colossal rock arm several hundred meters long, delivering a punch.

With a "boom," a mist of blood exploded, and the last colonel was sent flying, spitting blood, seriously injured and unconscious on the spot!

From the battle ring, two colonels quickly caught and covered the fallen one, retreating with him.

"Hahaha, a bunch of trash!" The Rock Armor Behemoth laughed at the two colonels forced back by its twin hammers, "Under Burning Sun, who dares to challenge me!"

The military was indignant, ready to rush forward but was immediately stopped by Wu Shaoyang.

This Rock Armor Behemoth was indeed resilient and mighty, truly a match for a thousand foes!

Qin Shang and the others frowned slightly; the transformed Star Beasts of the Grey Realm, in an environment of survival of the fittest, had mostly experienced countless battles.

In terms of average combat power, they were a notch stronger than the Star Beasts in various danger zones and secret realms outside!

A colonel said angrily, "With so many people unable to subdue it, do we really have to send generals to handle it?"

Just then, a black shadow suddenly dashed from the Great Flame formation, charging directly at the Rock Armor Behemoth!

"Good timing!"

The Rock Armor Behemoth growled in a low voice, neither dodging nor evading, throwing a punch at the shadow!

In terms of strength, across Shake Territory, the Rock Armor Behemoth was confident in ranking among the top three!

In an instant, they collided, a "bang" sounded, and the sound of cracking bones echoed as the Rock Armor Behemoth was suddenly sent flying!

"Hmm?" The Great Flame officials were startled, then shouted in excitement, "Good!"

The Rock Armor Behemoth stared at its cracked right hand, eyes filled with shock, "Damn! What kind of strength is this!"

The next second, the Rock Armor Behemoth felt a terrifying energy wave coming from ahead, and saw a black-purple colossal arm emerge from the void, slapping down!

The Rock Armor Behemoth was greatly startled, hurriedly raising its left arm to once again activate Rock Armor Giant’s Divine Fist and smash forward!

"Boom!!"

The black and gray hands clashed, and under the astonished gazes of everyone, the rock giant arm of the Rock Armor Behemoth crumbled and shattered under the black-purple hand!

In the end, the black-purple hand imprinted onto the body of the Rock Armor Behemoth, sending it flying and smashing into three or four gray-white pillars suppressing the Star Vein!

"Ugh!"

The Rock Armor Behemoth spat out a mouthful of blood, its rock armor shattered, and its skin cracked!

And at this moment, accompanied by the sound of piercing through the air, the shadowy figure had already moved close and punched forward!

"No..."

"Bang!"

The explosion of blood pulp, this punch directly blew the head of the Rock Armor Behemoth!

"Who is that? So fierce!"

"Not wearing military uniforms, seems not to be one of us."

"Strong enemy is dead! Charge!"

"..."

After the shock, the Great Flame Army’s morale soared, and each corps advanced like a hot knife through butter into the Shake Territory.

Mo Fei, under Su Yuan’s direction, also didn’t hold back, targeting each Radiant Moon Level Star Beast, swiftly collecting Star Cores.

The previously slow progress suddenly turned into an unstoppable charge.

Qin Shang and the others turned back to look at Su Yuan.

"Su Imperial Envoy’s beast is truly formidable, the Rock Armor Behemoth couldn’t hold for three rounds,"

"Not bad." Su Yuan nodded and then said, "Radiant Moon Level is not crucial, you must pay attention to Shake Territory’s Burning Sun Lords."

Speaking of this, everyone frowned.

More than half of the star beasts in Shake Territory were nearly dead or injured, but the three Burning Sun Lords hadn’t shown up yet.

Qin Shang shouted in a low voice, "Yu Chang!"

A colonel immediately approached, precisely one of the military elites who had previously snuck in for reconnaissance.

"Are those three lords still inside?" Qin Shang asked.

The colonel replied, "I haven’t seen them come out yet, not sure if they left stealthily using a secret technique."

Major General Tao rubbed his chin upon hearing this, "Could they really have retreated?"

Wu Shaoyang thought for a moment and said, "How about I just go up and check?"

General Li said, "Be cautious, what if there’s an ambush inside the territory?"

Wu Shaoyang, full of confidence, said, "No worries, even if there’s an ambush, I’m sure I can retreat safely!"

Both Major Generals Tao and Li nodded at his words as Wu Shaoyang had ranked seventh in last year’s military competition, and as a Wind Star Card Master, his self-defense was quite strong.

"Alright, Shaoyang, go have a look... hmm?" Before Qin Shang could finish speaking, his expression suddenly changed, "No need... they’re coming!"

Everyone looked up ahead, and on a distant tower, a dark-clad, shadowy youth stood atop the spire.

Major General Tao said, "They’re out, Shake Territory’s Burning Sun Lord... why is there only one, where are the other two?"

Since the main target was out, there was no need to wait, you should go have a look.

"Shaoyang, I’ll stay with the army, you three go ahead and investigate."

"Okay!"

Wu Shaoyang, along with Major Generals Tao and Li, flew up immediately, stopping a few hundred meters from the tower.

Major General Tao looked at the shadowy youth on the tower and said, "They say Shake Territory’s three lords, now just you’re left?"

The shadowy youth replied indifferently, "They left first."

Wu Shaoyang frowned, "Since they’ve all run away, why haven’t you escaped?"

"Escape? Humans are still arrogant as always~" the shadowy youth suddenly sneered, "You haven’t even fought, why should I escape?"

Wu Shaoyang and the others raised their eyebrows, puzzled.

Since not escaping, then where had they gone?

"Hmph, let’s just take him down!"

Wu Shaoyang crossed his hands in front and suddenly unleashed a fierce Hurricane Cross Slash!

As a Burning Sun expert, Wu Shaoyang unleashed a move casually, even causing ripples in the space.

Yet, the shadowy youth appeared unfazed, raised his left hand, and immediately, a black-red serpent shadow surged out from the sleeve, exaggeratingly opened its giant mouth and swallowed the Hurricane Cross Slash!

"Hardly swallowing my Hurricane Cross Slash? Courting death..."

Wu Shaoyang sneered, but his expression soon shifted.

Only to see the skin of the black-red serpent dragged far by the Hurricane Cross Slash, seemingly about to shred it, but eventually, it was blocked by the black-red serpent’s astonishing defensive and resilient force.

The black-red serpent flicked its tongue, turned and retracted back into the shadowy youth’s sleeve.
