Seeing that the Immortal Monarchs outside were not holding back at all, Zeyang Immortal Monarch came up with a plan: let the formation of Quicksand City continue to deplete those Immortal Monarchs, and once their strength was almost exhausted, they would immediately close the formation and take the initiative to attack.
The group outside had no idea about conserving their strength; when they launched their counterattack, they would surely be defenseless.
Then, Zeyang Immortal Monarch continued to maneuver the Cloud Sky Star Formation, relentlessly destroying the warships outside Quicksand City. As the number of warships diminished, gradually, some people in the Expeditionary Allied Forces began to have cold feet.
After all, they came from different forces and were not unified. Seeing their severe losses, naturally, some began to have second thoughts.
At this moment, an Elder from the Outer Hall of the Mysterious Moon Palace approached Lu Chen and whispered, "Elder Chen, this won't do. Some people are already having the intention to retreat."
The Elder from the Outer Hall of the Mysterious Moon Palace stood on Lu Chen's side. As long as Lu Chen didn't order a retreat, they wouldn't, but it was different for the affiliated forces of the Mysterious Moon Palace.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Chen directly communicated, "Retreat for now!"
Hearing Lu Chen's transmission, those affiliated forces finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then, the warships quickly distanced themselves from Quicksand City, out of the range of the Cloud Sky Star Formation's attacks, and those Immortal Monarchs who were bombarding the barriers of Quicksand City also withdrew.
Seeing the Expeditionary Allied Forces actually retreating, Zeyang Immortal Monarch thought their opportunity to counterattack had arrived, and immediately signaled the immortals inside Quicksand City.
"They're done for, attack immediately!"
Following Zeyang Immortal Monarch's words, the great array of Quicksand City was deactivated, and the immortals inside rushed out.
Seeing this scene, Lu Chen chuckled, realizing that these people truly dared to charge out.
As the immortals from Quicksand City began their counterattack, the Immortals from the allied forces were momentarily thrown into chaos, especially the Immortal Monarchs who had expended a large amount of power trying to break through the formation barrier of Quicksand City.
Now that the Immortal Monarchs from the Thunder Serpent Sect were on the move, it was likely that they were not a match for those Immortal Monarchs. At this time, all the Immortal Monarchs from the Great Qin Dynasty turned their gaze to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen thought for a moment. Since the other side had already come out, there was no point in holding back.
Moreover, the Immortal King on the opposing side probably had the same idea; as long as their Immortal King did not appear, the opposing Immortal King might also stay hidden, biding his time to ambush.
Lu Chen then transmitted a message to Ling Yin Immortal King, "Ling Yin, make your move!"
Upon hearing Lu Chen's transmission, Ling Yin Immortal King no longer hid his aura, and the next moment, a terrifying pressure was released from the warship where Lu Chen was situated.
Feeling this pressure, the Immortals from the Great Qin side were instantly thrilled.
This aura... was from an Immortal King!!!
Their Immortal King had made a move!!!
With an Immortal King present, mere Quicksand City was nothing to fear!!!
Subsequently, the allied forces turned to launch another attack.
At this moment, when Zeyang Immortal Monarch and the others sensed the Immortal King's pressure emerging from the front, their faces changed dramatically.
Zeyang Immortal Monarch hurriedly said, "Retreat! Fall back immediately, activate the great array!!!"
But just as Zeyang Immortal Monarch finished speaking, an equally intense pressure emanated from Quicksand City. Shortly after, a gigantic humanoid Law Manifestation appeared above Quicksand City,
It seemed as if flowing sand covered the humanoid Law Manifestation, which was hundreds of feet tall, blocking out the sunlight over Quicksand City.
Seeing this Law Manifestation, Zeyang Immortal Monarch exclaimed excitedly, "It's the Quicksand Immortal King!!! The Quicksand Immortal King is here!!!"
For a moment, the morale on the side of Quicksand City soared.
Seeing the Quicksand Immortal King release his Law Manifestation immediately upon arrival, Ling Yin Immortal King also unleashed his Law Manifestation, and in an instant, a purple figure appeared in the sky.
With the appearance of the two Immortal Kings' Law Manifestations, two terrifying pressures clashed, and the people from both sides struggled to straighten up under those pressures.
Realizing that fighting here would affect their own people, Quicksand Immortal King then said, "My friend, this is not the place for our battle. How about we change locations?"
An altercation at the Immortal King Level causes tremendous damage; fighting here would be like hurting the enemy by a thousand and self-damaging by eight hundred.
As soon as Quicksand Immortal King finished speaking, a cold voice echoed in the sky, "Agreed!"
Following Ling Yin Immortal King's words, the two colossal Law Manifestations transformed into streams of light, flying deep into the Barbaric Lands. Once people felt the pressure from the Immortal Kings dissipate, they all heaved a sigh of relief.
At this time, Zeyang Immortal Monarch suddenly transmitted, "The opposing Immortal King is gone; this is our chance to counterattack!!!"
Immediately following, Zeyang Immortal Monarch led the immortals of Quicksand City in a counteroffensive. Seeing Zeyang Immortal Monarch and them counterattacking, the Immortal Monarchs on Lu Chen's side again started to have second thoughts.
They had thought that with an Immortal King backing them up, this war was without any suspense, but with the Immortal King gone, they were once again plunged into a predicament.
From Quicksand City's side, over twenty Immortal Monarchs rushed out. It was apparent that the Immortal Monarchs from the Thunder Serpent Sect had come to aid, while the allied side had only about a dozen Immortal Monarchs, who had already spent much of their power breaking the formation earlier.
At this moment, the Elders from the Outer Hall of the Mysterious Moon Palace looked towards Lu Chen. The Elders had witnessed Lu Chen once fighting against three Evil Immortal Kings alone.
It was precisely because of this that these Outer Hall Elders chose to join Lu Chen's faction and help him expand his territory.
They believed that with Lu Chen present, those Immortal Monarchs would pose no threat to them.
Seeing the Elders of the Outer Hall looking at him one by one, Lu Chen calmly said, "Why are you looking at me? The Thunder Serpent Sect has two Immortal Kings; one has already arrived. Do you think the other isn't here?"
Lu Chen, of course, knew what these Outer Hall Elders were thinking; they were simply waiting for him to make a move.
Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, the Outer Hall Elders got tense, right, the Thunder Serpent Sect now had two Elders, and if that Elder appeared later, Lu Chen would likely move away from the battlefield to avoid involving them.
By then, they would still have to deal with the Immortal Monarchs of the Thunder Serpent Sect.
At this point, one of the Outer Hall Elders said, "Elder Chen, we'll buy you time!"
They believed with Lu Chen's strength, even if the Immortal King of the Thunder Serpent Sect appeared, Lu Chen wouldn't take long to repel him, as Lu Chen had once held off three Evil Immortal Kings in the Southern Domain single-handedly.
Evil Immortal Kings were far stronger than ordinary Immortal Kings; if Lu Chen could contend with three of them, then ordinary Immortal Kings should pose no significant threat to him.
Following that Elder's words, the other Outer Hall Elders charged toward the Immortal Monarchs of the Thunder Serpent Sect. This was the best opportunity for them to showcase themselves in front of Lu Chen.
If they received Lu Chen's approval, Lu Chen might speak well of them to the Hall Master in the future, giving them more hope of entering the Inner Hall and becoming Inner Hall Elders.
