Chapter 51 A Fierce War (1/2)
Xiao Tianlong did not think that the power of the blue light was so great that even could damage the soul-absorbing vase. It could not be underestimated.
He was very frustrated. He thought that the situation of this war had been changed. The enemies entering the city would soon be wiped out. Ninth Heaven Condor and the emperor of Yingtian Country would be defeated. However, the situation changed back suddenly. The tense war would continue.
The imperial master had a sense of ominousness. The war was so fierce and the situation was very tense. It was hard to say who would win.
The soldiers and people in Tianyue Country were excited to see their enemies suddenly became dull and dead bodies without souls. They planned to take counterattack. However, their regained confidence was broken down. They fell into desperation as in the hell.
The situation of the crisis had not been changed. Xiao Tianlong tightened his nerves again. He frowned and looked around. He was very annoyed and anxious.
He handed the destroyed vase to his subordinates and immediately flew up to the city. In any case, he needed to make sure the safety of the emperor and queen and repelled the attack of the strong enemies.
The imperial master was stopped by the enemies before he could enter the city. It was Ninth Heaven Condor and some other monsters who had been conquered by him.
Talking about Ninth Heaven Condor and the emperor of Yingtian Country, they were excited about their victory. They found their subordinates became dull and ignorant. They stopped fighting. It was really surprising.
At this time, Ninth Heaven Condor found that even the emperor of Yingtian Country and the subordinates did not escape from the disaster. He immediately woke up. He knew his opponent had already activated the horrible soul-absorbing vase and suddenly panicked.
Before his soul was absorbed, he hurriedly recited the spell and threw out the prepared pearl towards the vase.
At the same time his lost his soul, the soul-absorbing vase was also destroyed by the pearl. Ninth Heaven Condor and the subordinates who lost their souls recovered.
The time for the soul-absorbing vase to absorb the enemies' souls was short. During the short moment, more than half of the enemies who had entered the city were killed. By the time the souls returned to their flesh, the enemies had lost their momentum.
Ninth Heaven Condor and the emperor of Yingtian Country recovered when their souls returned to them. They were shocked and fearful. They felt deeply fortunate to have saved their lives.
They did not know the details and was afraid that this kind of horrible thing would happen again. In order to preserve their strength, they commanded the subordinates to retreat out of the city and took action relying on the situation.
Ninth Heaven Condor saw the soul-absorbing vase showing up, so he knew that Xiao Tianlong had come back and joined in the war. Facing the strong enemy, he was nervous immediately and worried about the uncertainty of the victory.
The snow sculpture elf dared not wait for long. He flew out of the city with some of his fellows. He had not expected that he met the imperial master face to face.
They had met with each other for a few times and knew each other deeply. They said nothing and drew out their weapons to fight against each other.
Both of the sides were fierce. One tried to defeat the invaders and drive all the criminals and monsters away; the other tried to kill his strong enemy and realize his ambition of dominion.
At this time, Zhang Yunyan and the other ministers arrived at the gate of the city. Finding the war was so fierce, they were shocked.
Xiao Tianlong and Ninth Heaven Condor were fighting against each other fiercely. They tried their best to attack and hoped to kill each other to get the final victory.
One used a sword while the other used a hammer. Sometimes, they fought on the ground or jumped into the air. Sometimes, the sword and the hammer hit against each other. Sometimes, they activated their magical exercises. After a while, they were both in great anger and hoped to kill each other right now.
When the two fought against each other for a while, Ninth Heaven Condor was unwilling to insist, because he found that it was difficult for him to win and if he continued, he might get in danger.
The snow sculpture elf knew clearly the situation had totally changed that their attack had been stopped. They needed to find out new countermeasures and redeploy troops. Under pressure, he had to lead his subordinates and the other monsters to retreat.
Xiao Tianlong knew the enemies were not defeated, but temporarily retreated, so he did not follow up.
He worried about the safety of the emperor and the others and also needed to solve some urgent issues. He stepped in the city with the others, rushing towards the imperial palace directly.
The emperor and the queen, so as the ministers, were astonished but unharmed.
Thanks to the damaged national treasture—the Ninth Heaven Pearl, all the people in the palace were unharmed. Though that treasure was out of light, its power was not completely lost. It prevented the imperial palace from invasion.
The most urgent thing was to recover the power of the national pearl to prevent the city from destruction.
Xiao Tianlong jumped up to the top of the Pearl Tower, finding that the Ninth Heaven Pearl was covered by a thin layer. It was not damaged, so he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
He looked at it for a while and did not figure out what the cover was. He hoped to take it off but it was attached tightly. It was difficult to get rid of it.
The imperial master frowned and looked at it again. He could not figure out what it was, so he had to find out another way. He activated his internal force to remove the cover, but there was still no effect with his force enhanced.
He was very surprised and worried. He did not know how to fix it.
The recovering of Ninth Heaven Pearl would be important for the situation and ending of this war, relative to the living of the palace and people in the city, and critical to the survival of the country.
It was terrible that the pearl was damaged that it could not show out its strong power. The war was in jeopardy and it was hard to tell who would win.
Xiao Tianlong had no way to restore the Ninth Heaven Pearl at this moment and felt very worried for the national treasure which had lost its original strong power. He was anxious and frowned, looking at the outside of this city and sighing. He had no confidence to win this battle.
The imperial master knew the enemies did not withdraw and was regrouping to prepare for a new round of attacks. The next war would be more intense, and would be the critical battle to decide to win or not. It was very important and cruel.
