NOVPUBChapter 557 -367: They’re Panicking, They’re in a Hurry!_2
Time ticked away, second by second.
With a countdown of 25 seconds, eighteen Alien Lords appeared within the territory coverage, unleashing a vast meteor fire rain towards the territory.
At 24 seconds remaining, a gigantic scroll unfurled, covering the entire expanse of the territory overhead, from which a tremendous pulling force emanated.
All beings within the territory were bound by this pulling force, those not strong enough were sucked into the open scroll in the sky en masse and disappeared from sight.
The Skeleton Subjects working as laborers in Zi Liyuan’s territory were almost instantaneously absorbed into the scroll.
Only the undead creatures with the strength of First Order or above resisted this pulling force, struggling violently.
However, as time ticked by, the pulling force grew incrementally, and before long, even these struggling undead would be drawn into the scroll.
With 20 seconds on the countdown, a beam of intense light descended from the sky, transforming into a hundred-meter tall light prison that ensnared the Undead Jade Horse that was galloping at full speed, preparing to attack the incoming foes.
The massive collision sound made the vast light prison tremble incessantly, several cracks appearing but it didn’t break, stubbornly imprisoning the Undead Jade Horse, leaving it trapped for the moment.
At 19 seconds left, dozens of greenish whirlwinds began to form within the domain of Zi Liyuan.
18 seconds remaining, countless meter-long Wind Blades burst forth from the whirlwinds, sweeping across in all directions like scythes.
Where the Wind Blades passed, the earth was scarred with wounds crisscrossing each other, those undead bound by the sky scroll’s pulling force were sliced into fragments of bones.
All ordinary undead, even elite monsters, perished under the slicing Wind Blades.
Only boss-level undead skeletons barely managed to withstand the onslaught, but every single one of them was in dire straits, missing limbs and severely injured, significantly weakening their combat abilities.
Of course, as relatively powerful entities among the bosses, the Shadow Leopard and the two Gale Wolves elegantly sidestepped the onslaught of the Wind Blades, dodging all attacks with ease, as if on a leisurely stroll.
At this moment, the soul fires within the eye sockets of the three bosses flickered wildly, lying in wait, ready to ambush the Alien Lords that had appeared at the edge of the territory.
As for the other Second Order clumsy bear boss, due to its lack of agility and its enormous size, it was once again covered in wounds, its breath weakened to the extreme, as if it would be dismembered by the Wind Blades in the next second.
On the other hand, buildings in the way were covered with a layer of transparent energy shield, protecting all structures.
Even when sliced by the Wind Blades, no marks were left on them.
This was the territorial shelter; as long as there was sufficient energy to replenish the loss from such wide-ranging attacks, it could ensure that the buildings would remain undamaged until the Lord’s Mansion was destroyed.
For Zi Liyuan, the energy reserves in the Lord’s Mansion were, for the moment, ample, fully capable of withstanding the consumption from this extensive attack.
Of course, Zi Liyuan wasn’t one to endure an assault without retaliation; those daring to attack him would naturally not be spared.
So, while watching the countdown, he launched a counterattack.
A series of bone projectiles, fired like a machine gun, relied on sheer volume; aiming at the crowd and letting fly was all it took.
The main strategy was to keep the Alien Lords from getting close, delay them for a dozen seconds or so, then decisively overpower and crush them, squashing these audacious fools.
The machine gun-like bone projectiles caused some surprise among the group of Alien Lords, but they quickly raised a series of earthen walls to shield themselves.
For a moment, the air was filled with flying dirt and dust, obscuring the vision of both sides.
For the Alien Lords, it was a slight nuisance, but not a significant problem, as they had employed certain methods to firmly lock onto Zi Liyuan. The reason they hadn’t entered the territory to capture the king was the concern over the yet unseen Tier-4 Peak Epic Boss.
The Array Plate “Drawing the Ground as Prison” had been enhanced, now unfolding like a scroll covering the sky above the entire territory.
Don’t think that now it’s just about drawing the undead creatures into the Purple Abyss Territory; in reality, no maximum power has been unleashed. It’s all waiting for the appearance of the Epic Boss ghost Hongsha.
The one used to confine the Undead Jade Horse, this Epic Boss mount, is another trump card—Light Prison.
This is a Holy Light confinement spell, highly effective against undead and dark creatures. Even a Tier-4 Peak Epic Boss, once confined, would need at least fifteen minutes to break free.
These Alien Lords are now just waiting for Hongsha to show up, trap her, and then proceed to hunt down Zi Liyuan.
Of course, they can also clean up the various undead creatures within the territory right now to prevent any unforeseen incidents.
As for Zi Liyuan’s escape, it’s no longer important.
As soon as they set foot in his territory, they were prepared to seal off this space.
If one wants to flee, one must breach their siege and run thirty kilometers away.
In such a prolonged period, even if Zi Liyuan managed to escape, they could still destroy his Lord’s Mansion!
So now, their mindset is, if they can kill Zi Liyuan, they will; if they can’t, then they’ll just destroy his Lord’s Mansion!
The key point is no longer just Zi Liyuan himself, but that his Lord’s Mansion must be utterly annihilated!
