When Yang Ling saw the Angel Battle Formation formed by high-level angels, he quickly retreated with the Dark Dragon King and others without the least bit of hesitation.

If there were one hundred two-winged or four-winged angels, Yang Ling would be confident in killing them with the Magical Beast Army, and if they still didn’t form the Angel Battle Formation, he might still fight to the death against them. But, the offensive and defensive power of the Angel Battle Formation formed by more than a hundred six-winged or eight-winged angels were too terrifying, and he couldn’t make up for the great disparity between them with a large number of Magical Beasts.

A single six-winged angel was tantamount to a Domain-Level Expert that trained for several thousand years, while an eight-winged angel was tantamount to an apex Domain-Level Expert that would shortly reach God-Level. Moreover, those hundred high-level angels had joined their power through the Angel Battle Formation, and even a Low-level Deity wasn’t a match for the angels, let alone an apex Domain-Level Expert.

“My Lord, what should we do?” The Corpse Wizard King wore a grave look. He possessed powerful Mental Energy, and he could detect the terrifying power of the group of high-level angels instinctively. This was the Corpse Wizard King had to give up on hunting down the Honorable Knights Team.

“It’s so strange! Why did the Church’s main force emerge here, could it be that…” Elder Klive furrowed his brows.

…

The angels that joined hands with the surviving knights closed on in the crowd, while the Magical Teleportation Formation Spell behind them shone frequently, and knights and angels emerged from it ceaselessly. When the crowd saw this, their expression turned grave.

The Honorable Knights Team and Angels Corps were the Church’s main force, and just some of them were so terrifying. If they allowed them to teleport all their forces here and set up formations properly, then the consequences would be dreadful.

Elder Klive was startled, and he sent a Magical Message to the Three Heads of Darkness to ask for help, while Yang Ling quickly summoned Elder Brent that trained peacefully in the Magical Beast Territory. There was a large distance between them, and Elder Brent might not detect his call. This was why Yang Ling sent the Dark Dragon King through a magical formation spell to notify Elder Brent.

“Humph! Let’s charge at them, and beat them to death with our rods.” The Giant Ape King stroked its face that was drenched with blood and spoke fiercely, “I don’t believe that their bones are harder than my iron rod. If a single rod strike isn’t enough, then we will hit them two times, and we will hit them until their brain fluid is splattered everywhere.”

The crowd’s expression was grave, and it was only the fearless and reckless Giant Ape King that was eager to fight. It wished badly to beat the enemies with his rod and turn them into a meat paste.

Sometimes, mindless words could be taken seriously. When Yang Ling heard the Giant Ape King, he quickly got an idea. He ordered Ashnamov to take out the Magic Crystal Cannons and Dragonbone Battle Carriages before he ordered all spellcasters to go to the city wall and control the Magical Towers. Yang Ling got ready to use intensive attacks to break the Angel Battle Formation forcefully.

The hundred high-level angels that joined hands possessed shocking power, but their speed dropped by much due to the battle formation. As long as Yang Ling used well the Magic Crystal Cannons and Magical Towers, he could break the Angel Battle Formation. The angels in formation were like a giant Nuclear Powered Aircraft Carrier, and it could still be destroyed by a large number of guided missiles.

After the crowd understood Yang Ling’s intentions, they started taking action. Ashnamov was in charge of the Magic Crystal Cannons and Dragonbone Battle Carriages, while the Corpse Wizard King was in charge of leading the Magical Beast Army to protect the others.

As for Elder Klive, he was in charge of leading his army and controlling the Magical Towers atop the castle walls. He would use Saint Peter Castle’s defensive weapons to deal with the Church.

The most difficult task was left for the beauty, Sala. She was in charge of commanding the Groundhogs Army and holding up the Angels Corps and Honorable Knights Team. The beauty Sala must delay the enemies and gain enough time for other people.

Squeak…

The Groundhogs Army commanded by the beauty Sala undertook the most difficult task, and they charged fearlessly at the Church Army. They suffered disastrous casualties in the face of the Angels Corps and Honorable Knights Team, but they had a large number, and they launched wave upon wave of attacks.

“Hurry up, charge over there. Hurry up!” After the ten-winged angel leader hacked a high-level groundhog into two shreds with his sword, she passed down an order and asked the army to advance quickly.

Everything developed as the ten-winged angel leader expected. After they formed the Angel Battle Formation, the enemy army was forced to withdraw. But, what was strange was the enemies didn’t leave the castle. Instead, they sent the Groundhogs Army at them in a suicide mission and lined up in formation a thousand feet from them before they started bustling nervously.

Even though the ten-winged angel leader couldn’t understand what Yang Ling and others were doing, she still felt an intense sense of danger, and this was a feeling she only had when she faced the great demons of the Death and Chaos Planes.

“Kill them, take revenge for our leader.”

“Kill them for the Church’s glory.”

…

After the Honorable Knights Team gained a foothold with the help of the Angels Corps, they attempted a comeback, and they shouted while they urged their horses to run toward Yang Ling and his companions. The Honorable Knights Team was protected by the Angels Corps, and they managed to make a bloody path for them through the Groundhogs Army. They advanced onward quickly!

“They are eight hundred feet at the front, get ready, and fire at them.” After Ashnamov asked the soldiers to check the direction and distance, he passed down an order in a deep voice.

In an instant, a rumbling sound emanated from more than one hundred Magic Crystals Cannons, and a hundred knights at the front were bombarded heavily and turned into shreds. If those siege weapons were used well, they would release great might even on the battlefield. Magic Crystals Cannons were the nightmare of heavy cavalry and heavy infantry, and their only flaw was that it wasn’t easy to move them.

“Awful! Hurry up and destroy their Magical Crystal Cannons. Hurry up!” When the ten-winged angels saw the malevolent Magical Crystal Cannons firing at the same time, she quickly understood the intentions of Yang Ling and others.

The ten-winged angel leader had already formed the Angel Battle Formation, and even if the enemies sent a God-Level Expert, she was still confident that she could stand and kill him. But, she still wasn’t confident in blocking Tailun Continent’s siege weapons such as the Magical Crystal Cannons. If it was just one or two Magic Crystals Cannons, it was no bother, but if one hundred Magic Crystals Cannons fired at the same time, their might would be terrifying.

The numerous angels commanded by the ten-winged angel leader strived hard to advance onward, but the Angel Battle Formation was quite slow, and they still faced the ceaseless attacks of groundhogs. They couldn’t hurry up in a short while, and if they killed the group of the groundhogs, another group of groundhogs would quickly come at them. They couldn’t exterminate groundhogs no matter how much they killed.

“600 feet at the front. Get ready and fire at them.”

The Honorable Knights Team’s speed was higher than the Angels Corps by much, but it was a pity that they faced a volley of Magical Crystal Cannon shots before they approached Yang Ling and his companions and more knights were killed. The knights were ready for this, and they had already protected themselves with the Holy Shield, but it was quite useless in the face of the shots of one hundred Magical Crystal Cannons.

Hum!

When the knights that survived by chance regrouped once again and got ready to attack the Magical Crystal Cannons that stopped firing, a great disaster befell them.

The numerous Spellcasters of the army commanded by Elder Klive were controlling one hundred Magical Towers, and they released magical attacks with great might. There were Firewalls with flames that soared up to the sky, shocking Serpentine Lightning, giant Icicles, and terrifying Meteor Showers. The Magical Towers consumed excellent crystal ores with no regard to the cost and rained attacks upon the knights and angels.

As the Magical Crystal Cannons fired at the same time, and the Magical Towers launched magical attacks that covered the whole sky, the remaining knights suffered deadly attacks, while even the Angels Corps suffered greatly.

After the angels formed the Angel Battle Formation, their defensive power became too strong, and even several ordinary God-Level Experts couldn’t break their defensive barrier in a short while, let alone Domain-Level Experts. But, the attacks of Yang Ling and his companions were so terrifying, and every round of attacks exhausted a large amount of their Magical Power.

After one, two, and several attacks were fired, it wasn’t just ordinary angels that suffered harm, and blood seeped out of the corners of even the ten-winged angel leader as if she suffered a hammer strike.

The Church spent a lot of effort in Saint Peter Castle’s defense so that it could govern the continent’s southern region, and it had used a large number of Premium Crystal Ores to construct one hundred Magical Towers. They would have never imagined that those defensive weapons would be used to deal with the Angels Corps and The Honorable Knights Team. If they received news about it, then the lofty Pope would probably be so infuriated that he would vomit blood.

“Humph, let’s see how long you will persist.” Yang Ling sneered coldly as he observed the trapped Angels Corps tangled by the Groundhogs Army, and observed the angels’ pale faces and the bloodstains on the corners of their mouth. Even if the Magical Beast Army suffered large casualties in this battle, they would still break even. They had managed to dispose of the Church’s two main battle corps, and they still conquered the majestic Saint Peter Castle. They had managed to hit three birds with a single arrow!

The groundhogs suffered disastrous casualties, but they would probably quickly recover due to their shocking reproduction ability. As for the Magical Beast Army, most of its losses were limited to low-level Magical Beasts like spiders and Vampire Bats, and they could quickly make up for them with the Magical Beast Camp in the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension.

This was why they had paid just a little cost to make the Church suffer disastrous casualties. They didn’t just get the Church’s Saint Peter Castle that was filled with a large number of strategic resources. They still thoroughly destroyed all of their factions in the south.

The army led by Yang Ling was waiting for the enemy to exhaust itself, and it was waiting for the best chance to send soldiers and dispose of the Angels Corps. They had the upper hand, and the ten-winged angel leader persisting strenuously was aware that their situation would only turn for the worse.

After they had formed the Angel Battle Formation, their speed became quite slow, and they couldn’t break away from the Groundhogs Army entangling them and weren’t able to quickly leave the battlefield. Moreover, they were facing the attacks of the Magical Crystal Cannons and Magical Towers, and if they stopped using the Angel Battle Formation, they would be likely exterminated like the Honorable Knights Team. The angels couldn’t block those terrifying attacks by themselves without the help of the Angel Battle Formation.

What should be done?

When the ten-winged angel leader looked at the magical barrier on the verge of collapse, her heart shuddered, and she clenched her teeth before she stopped using the Angel Battle Formation. The ten-winged angel leader led the Angels and withdrew recklessly. Even if just one person could withdraw successfully, it was still better than none surviving.

When Yang Ling was about to lead the Magical Beast Army onward to chase the enemies and intercept them, a dazzling light emanated from the Church’s magical formation, and a white-robed old man clad in the outfit of a Templar Warrior’s appeared in front of the crowd.

The white-robed old man waved his hand casually, and as white light flickered, the innumerable low-level Magical Beasts laid limp on the ground. Even the Corpse Wizard King, Giant Ape King, Yang Ling, the beauty Sala, and others faced a heavy wave of pressure, and they felt that their bodies turned heavier. It wasn’t easy for them to even breathe!

A Divine Domain?

Was this the Divine Domain of the Great Templar Elder?

When Yang Ling saw the white-robed old man’s look, his body shivered, and he quickly realized this guy’s identity. According to the memory of Fabris and the six-winged angel leader Ophelia, this man was the strongest God-Level Expert of the Church, and it was rumored that he reached the Mid-Level Deity Stage several thousand years ago. He was the Great Templar Elder!
