A Year of Great Undertakings - Book 6, Chapter 98: Burning Sun (1/2)

The battle came very quickly

The Boundless Sect arrived in

Upon receiving news fro out that the Astrals “ultihan’s hands, Su Chen wasn’t willing to wait any longer He gave the coan to advance relentlessly

Unfortunately for Yanto, this meant that he was only able to spend a day inside the library Ye Fenghan co that, after the Astrals were destroyed, the library here would belong to the Boundless Sect,that he could coh he had already become a hu

After crossing through the sea of flowers, the Boundless Sect arrived at the Astrals’ ceathered their army of 150,000

However, a hundred thousand of these soldiers were actually subservient races, prienders and the Kobalos, and forty thousand were consciousness enslaved puppets There were only around ten thousand Astrals

This was the first tiht against their invaders head-on

The ten thousand Astrals would have been capable of wreaking havoc on any other country This kind of force was probably only seen once every thousand years

Even so, they were obviously the weaker party when ainst the Boundless Sect

The Boundless Sect’s strength was quite apparent

And to the Boundless Sect, ten thousand Astrals was far too few

“Only ten thousand Astrals? So they aren’t planning on putting it all on the line here In other words, there are probablyfor us past Specter’s Garden,” Su Chen said as he gazed down at the arrayed Astrals fro beside hihed “They have been around for tens of thousands of years, after all They most likely still have concealed skills in droves”

Zhu Xianyao laughed “Doesn’t thatif we just steahed “I would rather it be boring and simply resolve all of these probleshan said, “The Astrals would co like this If we’re not stea? They wouldn’t be the Astrals if they didn’t put up a fight”

shi+ Kaihuang said, “The probleht; they’re trying to turn the tables on us Right, have you heard back frohan?”

Su Chen shook his head “Those Astral elders see to inform him of the plan at the very last moment As such, ill need to put some pressure on the fro for?” Lin Shaoxuan asked

Su Chen chuckled “What are aiting for? Start the offensive”

Following Su Chen’s co of the attack

Cloud-Piercing Shuttles flew through the sky, heading straight for the Astral ar Real Shuttles allowed theht Shaking Realm to participate in the battle Most importantly, it allowed the Shuttles ca ar swords shot into the sky before whistling towards the enemy formation

“What is this? How can they attack us from so far away?” the Astrals, who had never seen the Boundless Sect’s flying sword technique before, asked in astonishin Skills were always inferior to Arcana Techniques when it ca while the Astrals kept their distance and played defensive whenever they fought

This was the first tie even greater than theirs

Their intelligence reports hadn’tlike this

Yes, because the Boundless Sect’s disciples truly didn’t possess a skill like that

The Boundless Sect’s flying sword “technique” was not only due to what they cultivated but,Soul Ar consciousness link between a cultivator and their Origin Tool, greatly raising their control over it However, the Boundless Sect had kept it a secret this entire tiainst the Astrals to fully dein Qi Scholars

The flying swords could not only strike from extremely far away, but they were also incredibly powerful Some of the more advanced cultivators could even control dozens of swords at once Swords were basically raining down from the sky in a torrential downpour upon the Astrals

The first ones to be struck were the Trigenders and the Kobalos These two races were not exactly weaklings The Trigenders could ht, and they were able to use all kinds of strange and mysterious skills The Kobalos were cowardly, but they also possessed a wild side If the Astrals stimulated their bloodthirst, they werewith abandon

However, none of these were of any use when the opponent was too far away The Astrals, who had always adopted defensive tactics, had never expected that their opponents would actually have a greater range than they

And these flying swords were not Arcana Techniques Arcana Techniques would need to be recasted after being unleashed, but Soul Armaments were connected to their owner’s consciousness and could attack constantly One of the flying swords appeared in front of a Kobalo and beheaded it before et There was no need for the swords danced all across the battlefield,the lives of their enehtly when he saw this “Only a thousand men, yet we are able to scatter our enemies before us They are truly too weak”

“Don’t be in such a hurry They’re not totally helpless,” Su Chen said

Indeed, a white shroud of light suddenly eed from the Astral camp The Astrals in the back lines had siic barrier

The swords collided with the barrier, sending sparks flying wildly

At the sa towards this battalion of the Boundless Sect

However, this gap of ten thousand feet was still quite difficult to handle Most Arcana Techniques were incapable of traveling that far, which hy the Astrals had elected to use simple fireballs Their power, however well, it was not even worth

“Exterminate!”

The leader of this thousand-roup of a hundred cultivators attacked si a wave of frost that coot close

The fireballs, which had been unleashed by at least three thousand Astrals, was coroup of a hundred soldiers The advantage at being to strike froe was quite obvious
