Chapter 1068
The sky was dull and gloomy, and the sun was nowhere to be found . Blood-colored mist filled the air with a brutal aura . The scent of death was strong .
Long Chen and the others appeared in a canyon . The canyon was definitely not natural . It was a pa.s.s created by humans .
It was a hundred miles wide . This was a specially constructed channel, and when Long Chen spread his divine sense, he sensed another channel a thousand miles away .
Between these two channels was a huge and thick wall . The wall was covered in runes and incomparably st.u.r.dy .
The channel on his right side was guarded by Hua s.h.i.+yu’s Heaven Female Alliance . On his left side was a precipitous mountain .
The huge mountains soared high and spread far into the distance . This mountain was a natural barrier .
Behind the Xuantian Dao Sect’s disciples was a giant stronghold . Long Chen and the others were the final barrier in front of the stronghold .
There were six channels here, and when the army of devil beasts arrived, they would spread throughout the six channels . That scattered their power, which was beneficial for ambus.h.i.+ng and stopping them .
If the disciples could see further, they would see that their channels were all connected to another huge channel in front of them . At the end of that huge channel was an even larger channel .
Each channel had several branches . It was similar to trying to stop a river . When the people at the front were unable to stop the huge devil army, they would let a few of them go through the branches at the end of their pa.s.ses .
Through several layers of checkpoints, if the devil army still couldn’t be stopped, then they would be forced to activate the stronghold .
This stronghold was the Xuantian Dao Sect’s strongest defensive measure . Once it was activated, it was unknown how many devil beasts it would be able to kill . The sect had spent an exorbitant amount of manpower and wealth to build it .
But such a terrifying stronghold would also cost a terrifying amount of resources to activate . Even the Xuantian Dao Sect wasn’t willing to use it unless they were forced to . Just using it once would be a grave blow to their core .
The Dragonblood warriors felt like a stone was pressing against their hearts upon entering this battlefield . Seeing these grand fortifications as well as the scent of death that hung in the air, no one could remain indifferent .
This was the pressure of the battlefield . The more lives that had died, the greater the pressure would be . This kind of mental pressure was nerve-wracking .
“Form the whirlwind slaughter formation . Take care of the s.p.a.ce and distance between you . Don’t accidentally attack your own people, or the jokes that will be made about you will never end . ” Long Chen clapped his hands, drawing his people’s attention .
They quickly spread out . The whirlwind slaughter formation involved forming groups of nine . It was a very nimble and adaptable formation . They could quickly form up once more, linking up nine groups of nine into a larger formation . It was a simple but very practical formation .
For over thirteen thousand people to guard a s.p.a.ce around a hundred miles wide was very simple . At the Sea Expansion realm, a single full-strength attack could instantly cover such a distance . At closer range and by compressing the attack, it would make the attack even stronger .
The Dragonblood Legion’s warriors quickly took their places . Just by busying themselves with taking their positions, they felt the pressure of the battlefield lessen .
“Don’t be so nervous, because that’s a very foolish thing . Now that you’re on the battlefield, the only thing that matters is strength . If you’re strong enough, then the devil beasts in front of you are just points . If you aren’t strong enough, then there’s even less reason to be worried . You’ll definitely die, so why be nervous?” said Long Chen .
The Dragonblood Legion’s members involuntarily laughed . Seeing how easy-going Long Chen was as he stood at the front of their formation, unaffected by the battlefield’s pressure at all, their tense hearts loosened slightly .
“Other than that, let me give you some good news . Our neighbors are the Heaven Female Alliance’s beautiful army . ”
Long Chen’s voice suddenly quietened as he said, “Everyone, work hard to show off a man’s selling points . Show them how domineering a man should be . If we kill all the devil beasts on our side, we could go to the other side and help them . Hehe, you understand? Not only can you get points, but you can also be the hero saving beauties . ”
Long Chen raised his brows at them with a naughty smile . Tang Wan-er looked at Long Chen and didn’t say anything . She knew he was using this wretched method to encourage people and make them forget their nervousness .
Sometimes, a man’s desire for such a thing could allow them to explode with unprecedented power . She saw people’s pa.s.sions were ignited .
“Hmph, a nice thought . But my Heaven Female Alliance’s warriors don’t need any stinky men . Don’t even think about coming over here to take advantage . ”
Just as the Dragonblood Legion’s men had started smiling, Hua s.h.i.+yu’s icy voice came from the other side of the wall, along with a few maidens’ tinkling laughter .
Long Chen was struck speechless; now it was awkward . He had been exposed . The thing that infuriated him the most was that Tang Wan-er also laughed at him .
