"Chairman, what do we do now?" The people around Sword Immortal Ling Xu immediately asked nervously when they saw the dimensional barrier collapsing.
"Thirty-six minutes left!"
Sword Immortal Ling Xu glanced at his personal terminal. As long as they could hold on for another thirty-six minutes and protect the control core of the super dimensional barrier system, then there would still be hope for humanity to defend Yuzhang City.
At this time, Sword Immortal Ling Xu was faced with two choices. He could either stay and defend the core to the death, or lead the sword-bearers and humanity to retreat immediately.
If he chose the latter, it would mean that most of the sword-bearers present could safely retreat to the transit station.
But if he chose the former … a successful defense would naturally be a good thing, but if the defense failed, the sword-bearers mixed with Yuan Kou and the others would definitely not be able to safely return to the vicinity of the quantum teleportation arrays … Even if they could reach the quantum teleportation arrays, Sword Immortal Ling Xu would not activate these quantum teleportation arrays. Otherwise, Yuan Kou would also be able to use the quantum teleportation arrays to enter Yuzhang City's transit station. If that happened, then everything would be over.
The decision that Sword Immortal Ling Xu made now was a decision that concerned the future of the entire Yuzhang City. There was no room for carelessness or mistakes.
"Continue fighting!"
Sword Immortal Ling Xu didn't have to think for too long before he made his decision. He immediately used the livestream system to cheer on all the normal humans standing on the city wall. He told them that they only needed to hold on for another thirty-six minutes, and then the humans would be able to achieve the final victory. Their chances of survival were as high as one in two.
Otherwise, once they and their families embarked on the journey to Yan Jing City, their chances of survival would be less than one in ten.
Sword Immortal Ling Xu used this method to boost the morale of the ordinary people while secretly instructing his trusted subordinates to send most of the sword-bearers to a few specific quantum teleportation arrays to be teleported to the transit station.
This could be considered as Sword Immortal Ling Xu's backup plan. If the defense of the core region failed, then the most important sword-bearers of humanity would still be able to survive. As for the lives of the ordinary people, Sword Immortal Ling Xu would be unable to help even if he wanted to.
In the end, this was still the apocalypse where power reigned supreme. Perhaps it was possible to protect the weak for a moment of righteousness, but when faced with a life and death situation, 'where there's life, there's hope' was the correct choice.
Whether in terms of height, thickness, or sturdiness, the city walls of the core area were far inferior to the outermost city walls of Yuzhang City. The effect of sniping directly from the city walls was not very good. In just a few minutes, the first batch of Yuan Kou had already climbed up the city walls of the core area. Once again, a bloody battle broke out between the humans and the Yuan Kou on the city walls.
…
At the same time, on the other side, an important battle was also going on.
Kang Na's neck was being pulled tighter and tighter by Kang Na's tail. Gradually, she found it difficult to breathe, and the strength of her limbs' struggles was far less than before.
It was obvious that Kang Na was in a terrible state. If Kang Na didn't recover her breath soon, this little female dragon might die on her own tail.
And Adam also saw this point, the strength exerted by his arms became stronger, and Kang Na's tail that had been cut off was pulled to the limit by Adam.
Here, Kang Na's tail was very sturdy and durable, but it was precisely because of this sturdiness that it caused its owner to be unable to breathe.
Just at this critical moment, a small figure suddenly appeared in Adam's eyes. This figure had appeared on Kang Na's tail without him noticing.
Looking at it as a whole, Kang Na's tail was actually very thin, even thinner than a monkey's tail.
But looking at it from Gu Xuan Yuan's angle, Kang Na's tail was very thick, stepping on it was like stepping on the roof of a bus.
As long as one was brave enough, even an ordinary person could run along Kang Na's tail, not to mention an expert like Gu Xuan Yuan.
Gu Xuan Yuan ran all the way to the middle of Kang Na's tail. This was the place where Kang Na's tail was pulled the tightest, and also the place where it was the easiest to cut off.
Gu Xuan Yuan's intention was very obvious, he wanted to cut off Kang Na's tail here for the second time, and thus get rid of Kang Na's current predicament.
"Chaos Sky Splitter!"
Without saying anything else, Gu Xuan Yuan used the first move of the Chaos Sword Art. This was also one of the moves with the strongest single target killing ability in the Chaos Sword Art.
In the game, Guhan had once used this move to defeat a spirit sword wielder without using his sword essence, so it could be seen how powerful this move was.
Moreover, the sword that Gu Xuan Yuan was holding wasn't an ordinary swordmistress, but a spirit sword wielder's Immortal Slayer Sword. This swordmistress was something that even an emperor sword wielder was afraid of. The sharpness of the sword could easily break through the defense of a Universe level Yuan Kou, so Gu Xuan Yuan was very confident that she could cut off Kang Na's tail in one move.
However, Gu Xuan Yuan still failed in the end. The Immortal Slayer Sword indeed pierced through Kang Na's tail very easily, but when Gu Xuan Yuan wanted to use Chaos Sky Splitter to cut off the entire tail, a numbing electric current passed through Kang Na's tail and the Immortal Slayer Sword into Gu Xuan Yuan's body, causing Gu Xuan Yuan to instantly enter a state of numbness. The Chaos Sky Splitter that wasn't completely used also naturally ended.
This scene couldn't help but remind Gu Xuan of the battle between the Wangshu Sword Goddess and Kang Na. At that time, the Wangshu Sword Goddess's condition was even more miserable than Gu Xuan Yuan's. She was continuously electrocuted by Kang Na and was forever trapped in a state of numbness. If it wasn't for the Tiger Roar Sword Spirit's desperate attack that sent the Wangshu Sword Goddess flying, the Wangshu Sword Goddess would have already been broken in Kang Na's hands.
"I understand now!
The Ring of Perfection is unable to completely seal Kang Na's power, so there is still a portion of electric current hidden deep within Kang Na's body. However, this portion of electric current is too small, so small that Kang Na can't even mobilize it. I didn't expect it to come at a time like this! "
Gu Xuan Yuan quickly understood the origin of the electric current in Kang Na's tail and felt a sense of helplessness in her heart.
As long as it was a metal object, it would conduct electricity. Even the Immortal Execution Sword was no exception.
If she had Sword Essence in her body, she could use it to isolate these electric currents.
However, she didn't have any Sword Essence to use now. If she continued to use the Immortal Execution Sword to slice off Kang Na's tail, then being electrocuted would be unavoidable.
"Looks like I can't use the Immortal Execution Sword anymore!"
Gu Xuan Yuan hesitated for a moment before using her left hand to pull out a pitch-black sword lady from the scabbard at her waist. This was the first time this sword lady had revealed herself today.
"Juzi!
I wonder if you have the ability to slice through Kang Na's tail! "
At this moment, Gu Xuan Yuan took out her Famed Sword Lady's Juzi Sword. There was only one reason why Gu Xuan Yuan took out the Juzi Sword.
That was because the Juzi Sword wasn't like the majority of the other sword ladies, which were all forged from various metals.
The biggest difference between the Juzi Sword and the other sword ladies was that it wasn't made of metal. Instead, it was the trunk of the ancient Fusang tree. To put it bluntly, it was just a piece of wood.
Wood naturally couldn't conduct electricity, so if Gu Xuan Yuan used the Juzi Sword, she could successfully avoid the paralyzing effect of the electric currents in Kang Na's tail.
But then there was another problem. Could a wooden longsword like the Juzi Sword really have the ability to cut through the tail of a Flood Level Dragon?
"Forget it!
I'll just treat a dead dragon as a living dragon! "
Gu Xuan Yuan held the Juzi Sword in her left hand and waved it in the air a few times. She wanted to get used to this terrible feeling.
It couldn't be helped. Although Gu Xuan Yuan had the ability to use dual swords, she mainly used her right hand when using the sword. Using the sword with her left hand was still a bit awkward.
This was also something that couldn't be helped. Who let the Immortal Execution Sword and Gu Xuan Yuan's right hand firmly fuse together. Gu Xuan Yuan had no choice but to use her left hand to use the sword. Many of Gu Xuan Yuan's sword techniques were very awkward and she wasn't used to it.
Kang Na's situation was getting worse. Gu Xuan Yuan didn't have much time to practice. After she felt a little bit, she gritted her teeth and directly slashed down with the Juzi Sword in her hand.
Gu Xuan Yuan had already made sufficient preparations ….. She was prepared to deal with the huge resistance of cutting into Kang Na's tail. After all, the Juzi Sword was a wooden sword.
What Gu Xuan Yuan didn't expect was that Kang Na's tail was like nothing in front of the Juzi Sword. Gu Xuan Yuan very easily slashed the entire Juzi Sword into Kang Na's tail. At the same time, there really wasn't any electric currents to interfere with Gu Xuan Yuan's battle.
"Primal Chaos Split the Heavens!"
Gu Xuan Yuan no longer had any scruples. She used the Primal Chaos Split the Heavens in an instant. Kang Na's sturdy and durable tail was immediately broken.
At the moment when the tail was broken, Kang Na's body was pushed away by the huge reaction force. She crashed into a dozen tall buildings and completely destroyed them. However, the tail that was strangling her neck was finally released. Kang Na suddenly opened her dragon mouth and took a dozen deep breaths of air, as if it was the most precious thing in the world.
"Oh no … I almost died!" Although that was what Kang Na said, her danger was actually over.
But the real danger now was Gu Xuan Yuan. Gu Xuan Yuan, who was originally standing on Kang Na's tail, flew out like Kang Na the moment her tail was broken … It must be known that Kang Na's body was as high as a dozen stories building. Gu Xuan Yuan was equivalent to falling from a height of a dozen stories building.
What was even worse was that there wasn't anything around Gu Xuan Yuan that she could borrow strength from. She couldn't use the sword essence in her body either. Gu Xuan Yuan could only let her body fall from the sky.
"I hope the Xuanyuan Sword's words are true. My body has already been strengthened to the level of a Flood Dragon Yuan Kou. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'm going to die …" Gu Xuan Yuan who was falling from the sky helplessly thought to herself. At this moment, she was hoping that her body's strength could withstand this impact.
"Suck!
Suck! "
At this moment, Kang Na was greedily breathing in the air. When Kang Na's dragon mouth sucked in air, it was equivalent to a level 10 storm. As a result, Gu Xuan Yuan's body was naturally wrapped up by this suction force. She flew directly into Kang Na's mouth. If it wasn't for Gu Xuan Yuan's quick eyes and hands, she might have already been eaten into Kang Na's stomach.
