Countless Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls warriors were shredded to pieces. God's Dance's Annihilation Storm was practically a forbidden spell for mages. Its Attack was so high that it could even tear apart a sturdy siege tower, let alone human flesh.
Chaos Moon bit her lip as she stared at the scene in front of her. Her hand trembled a little as she said, "Candle Dragon's mages … are so strong!"
I growled, "Prepare to ascend the walls! Goddammit, it's time to avenge Fighting Spirits and Li Chengfeng!"
I summoned the Armored Ice Qilin Horse before the siege tower's drawbridge could be lowered. Then, I slammed my sword into the drawbridge!
"Bang!"
There was a loud bang, and the drawbridge fell to the ground. The view before me brightened, and I saw that we were about 15 yards away from the walls. With the Armored Ice Qilin Horse's jumping ability, I should be able to ride it.
It was at this exact moment that a person suddenly sprinted toward us from the top of the city walls. He stomped on the city walls and sprinted toward a siege chariot on our left in a perfect arc. It was none other than Blue Sky Scar. He stabbed his longsword into the siege chariot's carapace before jumping to the roof of the siege chariot. Then, he unleashed a beam of sword energy at the siege chariot, causing the Blazing Hot Lips warriors inside the siege chariot to wail in pain. Book fans loved to read:
On the other side, Candlelight Shadow drew a magic formation with his sword and summoned a blood-drenched lion. It looked majestic and huge, and it raised its head and roared angrily. The name "Bloodthirsty Lion King" floated above its head. It was a Heaven Rank boss pet. Candlelight Shadow had changed his pet, and it was a very powerful one at that!
The Bloodthirsty Lion King roared as it pressed its two front paws against the ground, preparing to attack. Its entire body trembled as its fur stood on end. Countless amounts of icy Qi began to emanate from the surroundings. In the next moment, the Bloodthirsty Lion King let out a furious roar. The ground shook, and with a 'peng', a ten meter tall icicle suddenly burst out of the ground, directly piercing through a nearby siege tower. An attack that came from below had even more penetrative power. Without a doubt, the warrior in the siege tower was doomed.
Candlelight Shadow's eyes flashed with killing intent as he stared at me provocatively. He took a few steps back before charging toward me with his sword in hand. His speed was so fast that he looked like a straight, sharp sword as he leaped through the air!
"Lu Chen, show me how strong you are now!" Candlelight Shadow shouted.
Time seemed to freeze as everyone turned to look at us. Two Legendary Heavenly King players clashing against each other. What kind of scene would that be?!
"Armored Ice Qilin Horse, go!"
I roared and spurred my horse forward. Staring at the steel arrows on the watchtowers, I charged forward with my Cyan Netherworld Sword in hand. The tip of my sword was lowered, giving off a cold feeling.
"Heh!
You're courting death! "
Candlelight Shadow's eyes turned cold as he abruptly somersaulted in midair. Relying on his superior turning speed, he grabbed my shoulder and spun around. The Blade of Scarlet Flames glowed with a bone-chilling light as it slammed into my back with Barrier Break!
Pfft!
“20192！”
Even though I had only activated Encourage VII, I had to admit that Candlelight Shadow's Attack was very high. The Blade of Scarlet Flames in his hand seemed to be a 5-star Earth-grade weapon. It was a Level 140 weapon with terrifying Attack.
Clang clang clang!
Candlelight Shadow took advantage of the fact that I was stuck on my mount and couldn't turn around. He launched another Blazing Purgatory Slash and dealt almost 20k damage to me.
I had been holding back all this time. At this moment, the Armored Ice Qilin Horse's iron hooves abruptly landed on the city wall. I immediately grabbed Candlelight Shadow's arm and shouted, "Are you done killing?"
I pulled Candlelight Shadow toward me and slammed him into the ground. The Cyan Netherworld Sword whistled through the air as I executed Burning Blade Slash. Three beams of fiery sword energy intertwined with each other. Candlelight Shadow was at the center of the attack, and he hadn't recovered from the impact. Caught off guard, he raised his sword to parry the attack!
Clang clang clang!
“2902！”
“6093！”
“11092！”
The difference between a normal Earthfire Realm player and a normal Candlelight Shadow was exposed for all to see. Even though Candlelight Shadow had successfully parried my attack, I still managed to deal almost 20k damage to him. He only had 50k HP to begin with, so he was in grave danger!
I jerked my sword and stabbed forward with a skill — Crushing Blow!
If I managed to Crush him, Candlelight Shadow would be dead for sure!
However, Candlelight Shadow's reaction speed was even faster. He abruptly canceled his Guard.
I changed my attack again and switched from Crushing Blow to Universe Break. A cold light rose from the Armored Ice Qilin Horse's hooves as Universe Break charged toward Candlelight Shadow like a venomous snake.
"Fuck!"
Candlelight Shadow was caught off guard by my sudden attack. He suddenly turned around and used the helix maneuver. His entire body flickered as he disappeared from my attack trajectory. A MISS popped up above my head. My sure-kill Universe Break had actually been dodged by someone?!
Candlelight Shadow was shocked. He didn't just sit around and wait for his death with the title of Martial God. He had been working hard all this time to temper himself and make himself stronger. The Candlelight Shadow today was many times stronger than when he first debuted. There really weren't many people who could dodge my Universe Break.
However, Candlelight Shadow didn't dare to fight me again after that one exchange. The difference in our stats was just too great. I had the Armored Ice Qilin Horse, but he was fighting on foot. Even though he had more room to maneuver, no matter how good his maneuver was, it was useless in the face of absolute strength. Not to mention, even though I was riding the Armored Ice Qilin Horse, I still possessed unparalleled control and destructive power. He didn't dare to be careless.
… …
Candlelight Shadow grabbed the Blade of Scarlet Flames and retreated. He waved his hand and used Ghost God Prophecy on me. Then, he shouted, "Archers, stun him with Shock Arrows and kill him!"
A group of archers began to wreak havoc on the city walls!
Thud thud thud thud!
The Armored Ice Qilin Horse was knocked back by the arrows. Candlelight Shadow had too many powerful players, and Transient Smoke and Clouds' longbow was at least Earth-grade. He wasn't in a hurry to fire a barrage of arrows, but rather, he was firing them one at a time. His accuracy was so high that even my lightning-fast movements couldn't dodge his arrows.
Bang bang bang!
The arrows exploded on my Crimson Rock Dragon Armor. Transient Smoke and Clouds' attacks had an explosive effect that dealt a lot of damage to heavy-armor players!
“8293！”
“4592！”
7291! Everyone else, watch as normal!
… …
I was starting to feel like I couldn't take it anymore after taking so much damage, but I still didn't want to retreat. I had to hold the fort here, or the siege towers that Stranger of Three Lifetimes had painstakingly built would go down the drain.
I raised my sword and unleashed Thousand Ice Slash, killing a large number of archers and assassins and recovering a huge chunk of my HP. At the same time, the Phantom Wolf King leaped onto the city walls and let out an angry howl. It seemed very displeased that so many people were attacking its master, so it pounced into the crowd and unleashed Claw of the Storm, leaving giant claws on the city walls.
Candlelight Shadow's eyes turned cold as he ordered his pet to attack. The Bloodthirsty Lion King immediately charged toward the Phantom Wolf King, and I also ordered my little wolf to attack. As a result, the two kings of the beasts clashed and tore at each other, leaving countless cyclones in the air. The players around us were stunned speechless.
"Archers, gather! Focus fire on Lu Chen!" Transient Smoke and Clouds shouted.
Nearly a hundred elite archers started to gather together and drew their bows. The sound of bowstrings being pulled taut was enough to make a person's heart jump into their throat.
Swhoosh swhoosh...
After cutting down a few Candle Dragon players with my sword, I saw that the time was right and immediately shouted, "Little wolf!"
Hearing the summons, the Phantom Wolf King immediately howled. In the next moment, Purgatory Storm abruptly exploded above the city, the massive whirlwind sweeping up the group of archers. The Skill was extremely accurate, tearing the archers to shreds. Fortunately, Transient Smoke and Clouds reacted quickly enough to escape with a Leap. Otherwise, he, too, would have died.
Candlelight Shadow gritted his teeth and charged toward me again with his Blade of Scarlet Flames!
Boom!
My attack missed. Candlelight Shadow's movement speed was incredible. He zigzagged to avoid my first attack as soon as I got close to him. Then, he slid his feet in an S-shaped path and slashed at my back a few times. His body moved with his sword. Every time I turned around, he would move at the same time. Candlelight Shadow was taking advantage of the mount's weak turning ability. Was he trying to kill me?

I chuckled to myself and abruptly accelerated. The Armored Ice Qilin Horse was so fast that I immediately pulled Candlelight Shadow away from me. My Cyan Netherworld Sword glowed brightly as I fired Burning Blade Slash at the crowd in front of me. A large group of elite Candle Dragon magic knights fell to the ground and died. My Martial God's 200% Encourage and my Burning Blade Slash were not something these people could withstand. Of course, a lot of magic knights managed to Guard themselves and survive.
I spun around and slashed left and right with the Cyan Netherworld Sword, killing nearly a hundred elite Candle Dragon players like I was cutting through rice. Then, I turned around and ran in a big circle before Candlelight Shadow finally caught up to me. His face turned ashen because he clearly knew what I was trying to do. I wanted to kill Candle Dragon players right in front of him!
… …
It was at this moment a Galaxy Storm exploded around me. I felt a chill run down my spine as I lost 17829 HP. Damn, such powerful Magic Attack!
I turned around and saw that it was God's Dance who was attacking me. This mage of mass destruction had always been a thorn in our side. Her powerful Magic Attack and outstanding mechanical skills had thoroughly earned her the title of Candle Dragon's number one mage.
Swhoosh!
My Cyan Netherworld Sword flashed as I charged toward God's Dance, braving countless spells and arrows!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
It seemed that I had overestimated my tankiness. The Armored Ice Qilin Horse's tenacity bar grew shorter and shorter under the attacks of Transient Smoke and Clouds, God's Dance and the other high-level ranged players. Suddenly, the Armored Ice Qilin Horse let out a sad whine and slowly disappeared. Fuck, I really can't beat her head-on!
Thud thud thud...
My HP instantly hit rock bottom as I slid across the ground. A large group of mages were throwing Fireballs and Icicles at me. Even worse, Tempest Shadow was charging toward me on his mount and using Barrier Break!
