Chapter 996 - Art of Monarch Strike (1/2)

"Heed my orders! Lock down the fortress!" commanded Zhong Yue suddenly.

The human Creators flew out from the Star Torrent Castle, Fu Wen landed onto the back of a bull Creator and shouted, "Lesser Heavenly River Naval Fleet, into formation!"

Warships sailed out from the river, rippling the water in the Star River, banners waved against the wind and massive beasts rampaged in the water; those beasts were the Yu She Celestial Race's Creators.

Fu Shan climbed onto a Fei Yi Celestial Race's Creator, who had already revealed its true form, a double-bodied giant snake and Fu Shan shouted while swinging his axes around, "Where are my warriors of the South Gate Army?"

Fu Zhen shouted, the Zhu Huai Celestial Race's Creator rolled on the ground, turned into a beast with pig's body and bull's head before Fu Zhen jumped onto his back and roared, "Where are my men from the West Gate Army!"

Fu Yue rode on a Shan Hun Creator, galloping in the fortress while he waved his weapon and shouted, "Any living souls from the North Gate Army?"

Fu Lie was sitting on a Pao Xiao Creator's back and flew up into the sky, he was also shouting, "Where is the Constellation Army!?"

"Where is the Yu Lin Army?"

Army after army, the armies marched out; on the front were fully equipped divine generals, in the center were massive beasts and the generals all shouted, "The South Gate Army reporting in!"

"The West Gate Army reporting in!"

"The North Gate Army at your service!"

"The Constellation Army on standby!"

"The Yu Lin Army awaiting your orders!"

The array patterns in these divisions were all activated, formed a large scale killing array and the gatekeepers all roared, unleashing their power at once.

"Lock down Heaven Suppression Fortress!"

On the outside, Star River raged, formed water curtains that slowly merged together and sealed the entire Heaven Suppression Fortress. On the back of the fortress, the Yinkang Clan's gods were all shocked by the events and Yin Fukang immediately came forth with the Heaven Suppression River Cauldron as he shouted, "Any help required?"

"No. Yinkang Clan needs a rest urgently after the years of battles. You must all have a rest."

Zhong Yue looked at the Fusang Divine Tree in his hand and suddenly said, "If I can't even deal with merely Imperial Emperors, then I wouldn't be fit to command! Xian Tian Royal Guards, formation!"

Chi Song let out a battle cry, the 8,000 Fuxi revealed their Fuxi True Form, all activated the Stone Sentinel Maze and included their own armies into the Stone Sentinel Maze!

Yin Fukang hesitated and in the end, he remained on the same spot; in the four years of moving the state to the fortress, the Yinkang Clan was entirely worn out and even himself was forcefully holding himself together.

Throughout the journey, they'd been attacked by the power of the Heaven Court and among the power, the Heaven Court's Yu Lin Army was the toughest of all; with their extreme mobility, they had harassed the Yinkang Clan deeply.

This deprived the Yinkang Clan of the rest that they needed; the others from the Yinkang Clan were all exhausted by the constant worship towards Demon Monarch Yin Kang's spirit where they offered their blood as sacrifices.

The journey itself had already had Demon Monarch Yin Kang's spirit disintegrated, not to mention the Yinkang Clan alone!

If that's the case, let's see his strength.

Yin Fukang thought, Rumours out there had it that he is as strong as an army and three Imperial Emperors. However, those two are ancient great presences, can he deal with them?

Around Heaven Suppression Fortress, the river water had already formed a curtain shadowing the fortress. In the skies were billions and billions of stars, which dyed the skies silver in color while warships sailed across the skies.

In the air were all chariots that dashed past quickly, pulled by various exotic creatures and the

Yu Lin Army flew in circles in the skies, drawing massive circles that triggered the power in the water, forming massive whirlpools where lightning sparkled.

The Constellation Army activated the water's strength, causing the sand in it to fly out from the curtain, and the water to turn into a ferocious-looking god that stood as high as the curtain.

The four gates in the Heaven Suppression Fortress now turned into a castle in the skies, looking almighty and upside down; the gods within were also upside down but their movements remained unaffected.

There were four gates in the Heaven Suppression Fortress and among them, the east gate where the Fu Li safeguarded with the East Gate Army barely managed to maintain the formation's operation as Fu Li was now on the run from two Imperial Emperors with Bi An. Hence, there was no one to command the East Gate Army.

The other three gates, activated the formations, triggering the might of the Heavenly River, forming triple killing arrays, which were the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise.

The sacred beasts' jaws were wide open and in their mouths was a Heavens.

On top of the fortress, the Heavens were all activated, hung in the skies like alluring worlds and the power of the Heavens flowed into the Xian Tian Royal Guard's Stone Sentinel Maze.

In the fortress, there were 36 Heavens but three were occupied by the Heavens Kirin Carriage, one in each of the gate, another one given to Jiang Yiqi, hence, there were only 28 Heavens available now.

With the 28 Heavens activated, the Stone Sentinel Maze grew stronger and stronger.

Aside from that, there were also towers, warships, whirlpools, gods, beasts, Heavens and the Secular Worlds of the Creators in the skies.

At the same time, Fu Qizhi and Fu Yanshan fought against Feng Shenyong and Fu Baozheng, attempting to buy time for the divisions to get into formation to trigger the arrays' power.

But were they a match for the two traitors?

In just a short time, the two human Imperial Emperors were soaked in their own blood, the situation turned dire but they remained resilient.

At this moment, the armies activated the arrays, alluring light pillars rained down from the curtain, slamming onto Feng Shenyong and Fu Baozheng while the Star River gushed towards them with the stardusts!

The two traitors raised their hands and their bodies shook under the immense pressure; the Heaven Suppression Fortress' armies had attacked them through the power of the Star River, which was left behind by Great Si Ming and the Deity Kings from the Dark Age when they tried to create the Dao World. The energy contained in the river was far beyond the power of Imperial Emperors and was strong enough to rival the Heavenly River in Heaven Court, if not, stronger!
