Chapter 875: Chapter 349: None Left Alive
“There’s even more excitement to come!”
Xu Jin smiled, started excavating the sixth-tier Star Core, collected the essence blood of sixth-tier alien species, preparing to make a few more Blood Concealing Essence Blood Pearls.
On the way here, Xu Jin had already made a few, which allowed them to approach without being noticed by the alien species, leading to the surprise attack.
Otherwise, under the scrutiny of Heaven and Earth Will, the powerful alien species could sense them even from hundreds of miles away!
“Let’s go, the mission is complete, we’re heading back to Hongli City! I’ll carry you, you keep going.”
“I can fly by myself!” Ning Yuchan remembered Xu Jin’s mischief on the way here and was somewhat reluctant.
“Your Great Gathering Star Pattern rank is a bit low, I’ll teach you the seventh-tier Great Gathering Star Pattern later, which can increase your Star Power by at least forty percent.”
“Alright!”
In an instant, Ning Yuchan jumped onto Xu Jin’s back again, but just as she did, she received a gentle slap.
Ning Yuchan’s face reddened slightly, she said nothing, and amidst the swift movement, she began to comprehend the seventh-tier Great Gathering Star Pattern.
Of course, Xu Jin’s purpose in carrying Ning Yuchan wasn’t just for the pleasurable touch, but mainly to enhance Ning Yuchan’s strength.
Besides, carrying her, he could travel twice as fast with Flowing Flashes!
Xu Jin found that Ning Yuchan’s strength still had great potential for improvement in a short time.
For instance, the Great Gathering Star Pattern, Meteor Star Pattern, and Swimming Fish Star Pattern have not been upgraded to the latest version.
If she learned them all, the improvement would be significant.
Maybe they could even retrieve a Gold Star!
*****
On the ramparts of Hongli City, Domain Master Ji Cheng stood with five sixth-tier figures behind him, among them only Ji Xiuchuan was a human of sixth-tier.
In fact, there used to be three humans of sixth-tier, but they died in previous battles.
Apart from that, Cui Chongguang, Li Zhen, Hou Yunzhang and others, along with Hongli City’s own fifth-tier and fourth-tier fighters, numbering over a thousand, were now watching the rolling alien army advancing from afar.
However, Domain Master Ji Cheng looked grim.
Just now, he discovered that powerful military weapons, like the Starlight Divine Crossbows, were all destroyed.
These Starlight Divine Crossbows were crucial tools for defending the city; handled well, they could blast fifth-tier experts, although it took time to gather Starlight Giant Arrows using arrays.
Originally, Hongli City had twenty of these.
But it was just discovered that they were destroyed.
During his severe injury and coma, they were damaged first by that bastard Jin Fan.
Because only present-day humans could operate the Starlight Giant Crossbows.
This immediately increased the difficulty of defending the city by several levels.
In the distance, Earth Spirit King was leading ten sixth-tier aliens, two hundred fifth-tier, two thousand fourth-tier, treading the starlight, attacking Hongli City like a glowing cloud!
“Hey, Ji, you’re not dead yet!”
From afar, the Earth Spirit King saw Ji Cheng standing there in good condition.
“If you’re not dead, how dare I die!” Ji Cheng sneered.
“Where’s Jin Fan?”
Glancing around, the Earth Spirit King didn’t see Jin Fan, spat disdainfully, “What a waste! Given the opportunity for the Golden Lion Clan to establish themselves, and they couldn’t grasp it! Deserved destruction!”
“Jin Fan is stupid, your judgment is no better!” Ji Cheng replied.
The Earth Spirit King glanced at Ji Cheng, but his eyes shifted toward the ramparts of Hongli City to the positions of those Starlight Divine Crossbows.
In earlier years, they had suffered greatly from those Starlight Divine Crossbows.
If prepared and fired simultaneously by three or four, even a sixth-tier could be heavily damaged.
And in earlier years, Ji Cheng even played with the Starlight Divine Crossbows masterfully.
In field battles, they could even set up Starlight Divine Crossbows.
This forced the alien species from Huashi Star Domain to adopt tactics as well.
Especially in wilderness battles, battlements were mainly set up to counter these Starlight Divine Crossbows.
But today, those Starlight Divine Crossbows on the ramparts were completely devoid of their former brilliance.
“Hahahaha!”
The Earth Spirit King laughed up to the sky, “Looks like Jin Fan, that waste, is not entirely useless! At least he completely destroyed those Starlight Divine Crossbows for us, seems like the only Starlight Giant Crossbow is also destroyed!”
With these words, the defenders of Hongli City turned pale one by one, including even the alien species.
After all these years, these alien species had long known about the existence of Starlight Divine Crossbows and Starlight Giant Crossbows, which were essentially Hongli City’s stabilizer!
The Starlight Giant Crossbow, once activated, consumed twenty pieces of fifth-order Star Jade Tablet, requiring 100 breaths to condense a single Starlight Giant Arrow.
Within five hundred meters, it was almost infallible in hitting these sixth-tier aliens.
In earlier years of siege, many sixth-tier were killed under the Starlight Giant Crossbow!
One proficient Starlight Giant Crossbow was worth several sixth-tier!
But now, they were all destroyed!
Just from Ji Cheng’s expression, the Earth Spirit King knew he was entirely right.
“Ji Cheng, seems like the timing is in my favor! How about I give you a chance? If you surrender, I will spare the city from massacre, how is that?” The Earth Spirit King smiled slyly.
While laughing, he continually ordered his subordinates to divide into ten small teams, surrounding Hongli City.
Each team led by a sixth-tier.
Ji Xiuchuan also began to command in response, but the actions of the four sixth-tier aliens under his command became noticeably sluggish!
Domain Master Ji Cheng noticed this too.
But at this moment, he couldn’t afford to explode.
If he confronts these four sixth-tier aliens now, the morale might collapse instantly.
But Ji Cheng knew even better, that these four sixth-tier aliens would absolutely slack off later on.
And the Earth Spirit King also knew this clearly.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have induced Jin Fan to surrender directly!
Such behavior was typical for these aliens.
