NOVPUBChapter 875: Chapter 469: The Great Battle Concludes Chapter 875: Chapter 469: The Great Battle Concludes Just as Zhao Hongsheng and his two companions vanished from sight, the dragons that emerged from the talisman paper he had activated before leaving descended upon them.
In an instant, a thunderous roar erupted, as a multitude of dragons charged forward.
At this time, Zhou Yunxiao, despite being extremely anxious, desperately did not want to let the enemy get away.
Yet faced with the terrifying dragon assault, even his cultivation at the Medium Stage Golden Core was seriously challenged, and he risked falling if he wasn’t careful.
Therefore, facing the trump card left behind by Zhao Hongsheng to block their path, Zhou Yunxiao had no choice but to deal with it cautiously.
Apart from Zhao Hongsheng, everyone else was also a mixture of shock and rage, their expressions growing gravely solemn.
Meanwhile, a group of Golden Core Cultivators retreated explosively, with the magical treasures in their hands shining brightly.
...
For a moment, more than a dozen Golden Core Cultivators joined forces, unleashing a powerful blow towards the dragons that were coming straight at them.
In that instance, the sky was filled with various attacks, every person, regardless of how much Mana they had left or what techniques they possessed, dared not hold anything back.
Under these circumstances, the combined strike of more than ten Golden Core Cultivators also possessed tremendous destructive power.
As time slowly passed by, the two forces violently collided.
“Boom…”
From within the vast blaze, a crackling explosion could be heard, the whole ground blazing with fire as large swathes of land shook violently.
Despite the incredible Attack Power of the Fourth Order Attack Talisman, the number of people including Lin Tianming was significant enough that their combined assault was comparably fearsome.
However, the terror of the Fourth Order Attack Talisman had been previously proven by Han Hu; even Luo Anzhong, a seasoned Mid Stage Golden Core Cultivator, had not been able to withstand its attack and thus met his demise here.
Under this attack, many Cultivators were affected, among which Zhou Yunxiao, as the primary target, naturally bore the brunt of the assault.
And the outcome was that he suffered serious injuries at a significant cost.
Aside from Zhou Yunxiao, Shao Changyi failed to dodge in time and perished under this strike.
As for the others, including Lin Tianming, they too suffered greatly from the aftermath, each sustaining various degrees of injury.
Only when the dust had settled did the sky and the ground return to calm.
At this time, Lin Tianming and the others all gathered beside Zhou Yunxiao, with everyone staring in the direction Zhao Hongsheng had disappeared to, only to find that they were gone without a trace, leaving behind a battlefield riddled with holes and enveloped in the lingering smoke of gunpowder.
Furthermore, at a distance, several hundred Foundation Establishment Cultivators were gathered upon a few Flying Boats.
Scanning the horizon, these people, filled with panic, immediately steered the Flying Boats in the direction Zhao Hongsheng had escaped.
Regrettably, Zhao Hongsheng and the others were too fast, leaving no chance to take these people with them.
By the time these Foundation Establishment Cultivators realized what was happening, the battle was nearly over, and the whereabouts of Zhao Hongsheng and his companions were unknown, with only Lin Tianming and his allies’ figures emerging in the aftermath.
Seeing so many Golden Core Cultavators staring at them, the Cultivators on the Flying Boats were scared out of their wits, not daring to linger in this place any longer.
Thus, the people aboard these Flying Boats cared for nothing else but their desire to flee the area.
However, escaping under the watchful eyes of so many Golden Core Cultivators was obviously not realistic.
And as expected, seeing Zhao Hongsheng and others flee, the expressions on Lin Tianming and his companions became extremely complex.
Upon closer inspection, their expressions varied, some filled with the joy of having survived a calamity, others with the excitement of having won the battle.
After all, this battle had led to absolute victory in a strict sense; the Golden Sword Sect’s Golden Core processors had suffered heavy losses, which significantly weakened their strength.
The Blood Red Alliance had also suffered heavy losses and no longer had the capacity to annihilate any sects in the short term.
Beside those who were excited and thrilled, there were also some who were filled with unending fury.
Especially Zhou Yunxiao, whose eyes burned with rage at the sight before him, his face flashing with a ferocious expression.
In his eyes, this battle had failed to eliminate future threats, leaving many uncertainties ahead.
Especially for the Blood Red Alliance, if they rallied their troops again and incited other powers from the Cultivation World to attack the Wei Kingdom, Myriad Medicine Valley would inevitably be hit first.
Considering this, Myriad Medicine Valley had not achieved its most ideal goal, and naturally, Zhou Yunxiao was filled with angry emotions.
Eventually calming down a bit, Zhou Yunxiao couldn’t help but bitterly say,
“Zhao Hongsheng and those old thieves really fled quickly. If they had delayed for just a moment, I would have made sure all of them stayed behind to commemorate the fallen Daoist friends with their heads!”
Zhou Yunxiao made a ruthless statement, but he did not make any movements thereafter, clearly aware of their current predicament.
Although only three Golden Core Cultivators remained on Zhao Hongsheng’s side, they too had no strength left to fight again in a short time.
After all, the group that took part in the battle was nearly decimated, with either the dead or the wounded left, and even those unscathed had nearly exhausted their Mana.
Under these circumstances, even if they pursued, it would be difficult to detain Zhao Hongsheng and his companions.
Thus, despite feeling regretful, they had no choice but to accept the situation.
At this time, Chen Jingtian also looked at the fleeing Flying Boats and then asked, “Daoist Zhou, what do we do now?”
Hearing this, Zhou Yunxiao suppressed the anger in his heart and said with a bitter smile,
“Let’s forget it… our current conditions are too poor, and even if we caught up, we wouldn’t be able to keep Zhao Hongsheng and those thieves!”
