Chapter 1387: Man-Eating Vine
Out of the various creatures that Great Qin nurtured, the Wyverns were the highest tier and were a type of dragon, so they were much stronger than other creatures of this same level. Higher-tier creatures were not so easy to obtain, and they usually required Dens.
This would rely on Zhao Fu's luck in the future; he had no way of obtaining any right now. If he obtained higher-level Dens, he could only put them away for now.
Zhao Fu came to the Sunlight Gemstone mine. It was a large, open mine. Black gemstones covered the face of the mountain and all light that came near was absorbed by the gemstones.
Zhao Fu felt quite surprised; these Sunlight Gemstones were different than what he had expected. He had thought that they would be a shining, glowing gemstone.
Following this, Zhao Fu ordered the soldiers to start to construct defensive structures. This place was a distance away from Great Qin's base, and even though they could travel to and fro using teleportation channels, they still needed some defenses to ensure the safety of the soldiers opening up the mine.
Looking at the Sunlight Gemstones, Zhao Fu smiled. With these Sunlight Gemstones, Great Qin would not have to fear those eight suns and would no longer be restricted by the sunlight. They could now travel to further places.
At the same time, Great Qin had obtained an ocean of points after killing a large number of Insects and could obtain many good items. However, Zhao Fu planned to save the points for now and spend them at key moments.
After dealing with these matters, Zhao Fu returned to Great Qin's base. The first thing he did was discuss with his subordinates about building defenses. Great Qin's position was quite dangerous, and only by building defenses would they be safe.
The people in the surroundings had not yet discovered Great Qin's base, but they would definitely discover it in the future; this was undoubtable.
Just tall City Walls could not stop a large-scale Insect tide. Zhao Fu planned to build some deep trenches outside the City Walls that were 1,000 meters wide and thousands of meters deep, preferably within attacking range.
These trenches would be able to slow down a charge, and the Insects that charged up would fall down and die. Great Qin's people could stand on the City Walls and attack, making defending quite favorable.
As for the flying Insects, Zhao Fu set up ballistae on the City Walls to defend against aerial attacks.
Because Hong Mei was an Outer World person, Zhao Fu had asked for her ideas and had benefitted greatly. Hong Mei had said that a certain type of plant would be quite useful.
The plant was called Man-Eating Vine. They would sometimes be on the ground and would sometimes be underground. When people came close, they would quickly bind up the people and their sharp teeth would stab into the people's bodies and devour their blood and flesh. They would consume the people in a matter of moments, leaving behind just the bones.
Hong Mei recommended planting a large number of Man-Eating Vines around the City Walls, and this would have a powerful effect. Also, in order to avoid the Man-Eating Vines from attacking the soldiers, they would just have to feed the vines some of the soldiers' blood from time to time.
Moreover, Hong Mei knew where they could find a large number of Man-Eating Vines. There was also an extremely terrifying Man-Eating Vine Demon - each vine that it grew was three meters thick and was tougher than steel. It had many vines and could cover hundreds of kilometers.
A single Man-Eating Vine Demon could easily devour one million Insects and was incredibly terrifying. That place had become a forbidden area and practically no one dared to go there.
Zhao Fu felt quite interested; if he could obtain that Man-Eating Vine Demon, Great Qin's defenses would be greatly improved.
Zhao Fu had Hong Mei take him to that place, and he saw a plains area made up of green vines. There were only vines, and no flowers, trees, or grass at all. There were no sounds of insects or birds, and it was incredibly silent.
There were sharp, white teeth on each vine, making these plains look incredibly terrifying and evil.
With so many Man-Eating Vines, if Zhao Fu sent soldiers to clear them, they would suffer countless casualties and injuries. Zhao Fu did not plan to have soldiers go up, and instead he used kerosene to burn them. These plants definitely feared fire.
Zhao Fu ordered people to throw out barrels of kerosene and then ignite them. The raging flames dyed half the sky red, and the temperature quickly increased.
The soldiers continuously tossed down barrels of kerosene from the sky, wanting to light up the entire plains. The only thing they had to be careful of was flying too low because many vines would be able to attack them.
Some vines twisted about like snakes and were quickly burned into ash. However, only the ordinary low-grade vines were burned to death; many vines burrowed underground and survived the flames.
Zhao Fu had already prepared a countermeasure against this - he had soldiers toss out Earth Elemental Stones, which turned the ground as hard as rock, making it impossible for the vines to dig out of the ground.
More than half of the ordinary vines had been burned to death, and the vines that had dug underground were only slightly injured. Now that the ground had been turned into rock, they could not pose much of a threat. Later on, Zhao Fu would have the soldiers excavate the ground and bring the vines back to Great Qin.
Zhao Fu first had the soldiers stay here while he brought Arasina to the center to take a look at the Man-Eating Vine Demon.
The flames had burned for a very long time, and the ground was charred black and gave off white smoke and an acrid smell. Even though the flames had been intense, it had not caused much harm to the Man-Eating Vine Demon, which covered hundreds of kilometers.
Zhao Fu was quite clear about this, so he was quite wary and flew in the sky and did not walk on the ground.
Rumble...
Sensing that Zhao Fu, the cause of all this trouble, was coming close, the ground started to violently tremble. Long cracks appeared as massive vines furiously shot at Zhao Fu; there were at least 100,000 or so vines.
"锵!"
唰唰唰...
Shing!
A held the Royal Wood Sword and vigorously slashed out. An enormous green crescent flew out, destroying the incoming vines. Green blood spurted out, and the vines that were cut immediately withered as their lifeforce was instantly absorbed by the Royal Wood Sword.
Swish, swish, swish...
Even more vines ferociously shot at Zhao Fu with incredible power. There were millions of them and seemed to cover the sky.
Zhao Fu did not look afraid at all and continuously slashed out, sending out sharp sword lights. As the sword lights shot out, the surrounding vines were slashed apart and the green blood descended like a green rain.
However, the Man-Eating Vine Demon's vitality was quite strong, and as its vines were continuously slashed apart, it continuously grew more. The vines all had teeth on them that gave off cold lights, wanting to devour Zhao Fu's blood and flesh.
Zhao Fu would not allow the Man-Eating Vine Demon to drag things out. He unleashed the Royal Wood Sword's World Tree Domain, and an enormous green energy barrier spread out, containing an immense suction power. All of the vines shooting towards Zhao Fu started to wither at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Chapter 1388: Sun God Stone
The Royal Wood Sword's Domain was the bane of all plant creatures and had shocking effects whenever Zhao Fu used it. Sensing that terrifying suction power, the vines immediately retreated below the ground and did not attack.
Zhao Fu coldly laughed; just because the vines were underground did not mean that Zhao Fu could not attack it.
A massive wave of Divine power entered the Royal Wood Sword, causing it to shine with intense green light as an enormous life aura spread out.
Boom!
Zhao Fu flicked out the Royal Wood Sword, causing it to turn into a green ray of light. It flashed through the air and landed on the ground, causing a 100 meter wide crater to appear in the ground.
The Royal Wood Sword gave off a green light and countless tree roots spread out from it and burrowed underground.
The vines underground sensed a wave of danger as the tree roots continuously spread out and dug deeper. They gave off a suction force and quickly devoured the vines' life force.
Boom! Boom! Boom...
The green vines gave off terrifying power as they lashed out underground, destroying soil and rocks. The area underground collapsed, and a massive crater appeared. The Man-Eating Vine Demon wanted to use this method to use the soil to block off the massive suction power.
Some of the Royal Wood Sword's roots were damaged, but the remaining ones still madly grew towards where the vines were.
Rumble...
A massive noise came from underground as if something was moving. It was the Man-Eating Vine Demon wanting to run, not wanting to fight with Zhao Fu anymore.
The underground area was quite large, making it difficult for Zhao Fu to find the Man-Eating Vine Demon's position. He could only look at Arasina beside him.
Arasina stepped forwards and her 24 black wings spread out as a powerful godly spirit aura spread out. She stretched out a hand and countless rays of black light fell from the sky, forming a massive hand of light that stretched into the ground.
"Roarr!" The ground violently trembled as an enormous roar sounded out from underground. Arasina looked quite startled before her expression became cold, and she vigorously grabbed with her hand before lifting it.
Bang!
The ground shattered as a 100 meter long green rhizome was pulled out of the ground. What was surprising was that at the center was a man; however, it was only the upper half of a man, and his lower body seemed to be fused into the rhizome.
The man looked at Zhao Fu and Arasina hatefully. He was most likely the Man-Eating Vine Demon, and he had decent intelligence.
Swish, swish, swish...
After being dragged out by Arasina, the Man-Eating Vine Demon did not hold back and attacked with its full strength. Its vines contained terrifying power and seemed to cover the sky as they shot towards Zhao Fu and Arasina, and it was as if nothing could stop them.
Zhao Fu's expression did not change as he took out the Emperor Killing Sword and he lightly cried out, "Sword Master!"
Shing!
A sword hum sounded out in the surroundings as boundless sword intent swept out. Space seemed to collapse as the creatures in the surrounding 10,000 kilometers felt a chill and looked terrified.
Boom!
Zhao Fu slashed as a formless sword energy instantly spread out. The heavens and earth trembled as the vines were slashed into tiny bits, causing green blood to fly everywhere. In just an instant, all of the vines disappeared.
The Emperor Killing Sword's power was extraordinarily fearsome. If it was not for the fact that he was afraid of being exposed, it would be the main sword he carried around.
After the Man-Eating Vine Demon's vines were all cut apart, he looked at Zhao Fu and Arasina in terror. Now that his vines had all been destroyed, he had nowhere to run.
Zhao Fu came to his side and pointed his sword at him as he said, "What will you choose? Submit or die."
The Man-Eating Vine Demon did not hesitate and directly agreed. However, the Heaven Awaken World's restrictions were ineffective against it, so Zhao Fu could not control it. As such, Zhao Fu could only use his Divine Bloodline as a blood restriction within the Man-Eating Vine Demon's body.
Sensing Zhao Fu's bloodline's aura, the Man-Eating Vine Demon became much more respectful. He did not know that Zhao Fu had a Divine Bloodline and felt quite afraid of Zhao Fu's bloodline's power.
After taking in the Man-Eating Vine Demon, Zhao Fu smiled and pulled Arasina into his embrace as he said, "Thanks for just then!"
Arasina leaned against Zhao Fu's chest and glared at Zhao Fu as she said, "Use your actions to thank This God later!"
Following this, Zhao Fu took the Man-Eating Vine Demon and a large number of ordinary Man-Eating Vines back to Great Qin's base and planted them outside. Zhao Fu planted the Man-Eating Vine Demon within the base itself as they would be relying on its vines to attack.
The ordinary vines had not been hurt much, but the Man-Eating Vine Demon had been greatly injured. It would take a long time for him to return to its peak.
Zhao Fu planned to give him a large number of Insect corpses to devour because the Heaven Awaken World's recovery items had very weak effects on Outer World creatures. He could only rely on this method, or he would have to use up a large amount of Great Qin's recovery items.
Now, they had tall City Walls, a few deep trenches, and this Man-Eating Vine Demon; Great Qin's base now had powerful defenses, and Zhao Fu could be more at ease.
At the same time, they were now mining Sunlight Gemstones and continuously sending them back to Great Qin to be socketed onto equipment.
"Skreee..." Suddenly, nine massive cries sounded out in the sky as a massive aura swept out, causing the sky to tremble and nine 1,000 meter wide golden crows could be seen.
Because the territory had expanded, Zhao Fu had also upscaled the Sunblaze Emperor Immortal Formation. The golden crows were now 1,000 meters wide and could absorb sunlight from the surrounding 100,000 kilometers.
After the nine golden crows cried out, they spat out nine golden crystals that were about two meters long. These nine golden crystals gave off an intense light and searing heat, and they had images of golden crows within them.
Zhao Fu stretched out his hand and a formless power caught these nine golden crystals. These were Sun God Stones, items condensed from the Sunblaze Emperor Immortal Formation from absorbing sunlight.
Sensing the power within these nine crystals, Zhao Fu smiled because they could be used to dispel the Corpse Pall World's curse.
Curses contained immense Yin attributes, while the nine Sun God Crystals contained powerful Yang attributes. They could clear evil and purify all things.
With these nine Sun God Crystals, they should be able to get past the Corpse Pall World's cursed land, allowing them to once again attack the Corpse Pall World.
However, although attacking the Corpse Pall World was not difficult, the main problem was the Devil Horn Empire making trouble. Without its interference, Great Qin would not have had to retreat last time and could have continued to attack the Corpse Pall World.
They had to think of a way to keep the Devil Horn Empire at bay while attacking the Corpse Pall World. Otherwise, Great Qin would not be able to attack another world while being attacked by the Devil Horn Empire.
Chapter 1389: Nine Suns
As for dealing with the Devil Horn Empire, Great Qin had long since started to prepare and research things.
Zhao Fu came to the Forging Pavilion and looked at the two beautiful women working. He smiled as he asked, "How is it? Have you been able to create it?"
One of the women was Gongsun Zhu. She had gone from looking like a dignified young lady to looking like a young wife. The other was Gongsun Lin; she still looked like a quiet girl but had a trace of an air of maturity about her now.
Seeing Zhao Fu arrive, Gongsun Zhu smiled and said, "We're nearly done. We'll show Your Majesty the completed item soon."
The thing that Zhao Fu was having them research was how to use materials from the Insects' bodies. Even though these materials could deal extra damage to Heaven Awaken World creatures, they could not ordinarily be used by Heaven Awaken World people.
This was because for most materials, if they were made into weapons, people would not be able to send their spirit qi into them. Even if they could send in their spirit qi, there would be great resistance and they could not be used like ordinary weapons. As such, Zhao Fu had Gongsun Zhu and Gongsun Lin research how they could use these materials.
A while later, Gongsun Zhu brought over a red sword and smiled as she said, "Husband, try this out. This was forged from materials from Fire Red Ants and combined with Talisman techniques."
Zhao Fu took the red sword and examined it. The sword was quite warm and there was a line of runes down the middle. The blade did not feel very sharp, and the sword gave off a chaotic aura.
"Is this sword even useable?" Zhao Fu felt quite confused and sent his power into the sword. The sword immediately gave off a red light and its aura became ferocious.
"Husband, try it on this." Gongsun Zhu brought over a slab of iron that was two fingers thick.
Zhao Fu slashed the sword onto the block of iron and sparks flew everywhere as the block of iron was slashed apart by the sword. The cut was incredibly smooth, proving how sharp the sword was.
Following this, Zhao Fu did some more tests. He used an ordinary iron sword and the Fire Red Sword to stab into a set of iron armor. It was evident that it was much easier for the Fire Red Sword to pierce through the armor because of the materials from the Fire Red Ants.
Weapons made from Outer World materials were quite effective against Heaven Awaken World equipment and could destroy them more easily. This was primarily because of the Primal Chaos aura that they contained, which had a corrosive effect on spirit qi.
However, they did not have any advantage against weapons made from Outer World materials, as they all contained Primal Chaos aura.
If they mass-produced these weapons, they would be able to deal a big strike against the Devil Horn Empire. They definitely would not expect Great Qin to have such weapons.
"You've worked hard, both of you!" Zhao Fu smiled and hugged the sisters.
Gongsun Zhu smiled as she replied, "Not at all! We're very happy to be able to help out husband."
Gongsun Lin's face became slightly red; she still had not become used to her new relationship with Zhao Fu. A few days ago she had heard her big sister crying out and had angrily stormed in, and she had seen her sister doing it with Zhao Fu.
Gongsun Zhu did not mind much because she had expected this would happen. She was quite happy to be able to serve a man with her little sister. They could also research and forge together every day.
Within Zhao Fu's embrace, sensing Zhao Fu's dense aura, Gongsun Zhu's face became red and she did not hold back as she said flirtatiously, "Husband, let us serve you." After speaking, she squatted down and started to serve Zhao Fu.
Seeing this scene, Gongsun Lin's face became bright red. She had never thought that her big sister would be so daring in front of her. However, seeing how much her big sister was enjoying it, she wanted to try it too.
Zhao Fu greatly enjoyed the service of the sisters, and he soon started to do it with them.
A while later, Gongsun Lin's face was quite red as she lightly hit Zhao Fu's chest and said angrily, "Zhao Fu, can't you be gentler with us? Also, did you have these intentions from the start?"
Zhao Fu smiled and nodded. "I've known you for nine years now; of course I had some thoughts. I didn't want you to do it with another man, and I also wanted to make up for the sadness of you leaving before. I still remember that clearly. I want to keep you by my side from now on."
Hearing that Zhao Fu had feelings for her this whole time and did not just take her on the spur of the moment, Gongsun Lin's face became red with embarrassment. She could not help but feel somewhat happy and she lightly hugged Zhao Fu.
She did not want to just be a tool for Zhao Fu to use for pleasure; she wanted a man who truly liked her. Nine years ago, she had some feelings for Zhao Fu too, but that had not progressed into anything. Now that she had been taken by Zhao Fu, she felt a bit displeased but was not angry.
Following this, Gongsun Lin told the method for producing these weapons to the people responsible for producing military equipment and told them to quickly mass-produce them.
Weapons made from Outer World materials were quite destructive towards Heaven Awaken World equipment. However, Zhao Fu did not plan to equip all of Great Qin's soldiers with them because the Outer World materials had a great weakness.
After all, Spirit Destruction Crystals countered the Outer World creatures, and weapons socketed with Spirit Destruction Crystals would be able to easily counter these weapons. When that time came, this advantage would become a disadvantage.
Seven days later, Great Qin had prepared various matters and started to attack the Corpse Pall World again.
This time, they were much more secretive. Great Qin's army did not gather together and mightily storm in, and instead they went through teleportation channels that they had prepared in advance. Great Qin wanted to attack without giving any clues, and they acted at night as well.
Zhao Fu came to the area with the cursed ground by himself and took out the nine massive golden crystals. The crystals circled around Zhao Fu and gave off a faint golden light and a searing aura.
轰轰轰...
Boom! Boom! Boom...
Zhao Fu raised his hand and the nine massive golden crystals turned into rays of light that shot into the sky. Explosions then sounded out as the nine crystals gave off brilliant light and the nine golden crows within them seemed to come to life, dancing in the sky.
Nine suns appeared in the sky and intense light shined on the ground. As the strange and cold aura was hit by the light, it quickly dispersed and countless ghost babies howled as they turned into smoke and dissipated.
The light quickly spread and the night quickly receded. The people in this Continent thought that it was the next morning and felt incredibly confused; the night seemed to have passed incredibly quickly. However, looking outside, they saw that it was indeed bright.
However, when they came out, they were confused to find that there were nine suns in the sky. How was this possible? How could there be nine suns in the sky?
Before they could come to their senses, Great Qin's soldiers had arrived at the boundary through teleportation channels and started to attack. The apocalypse of the Corpse Pall World had arrived.
Chapter 1390: Mud Soldiers
Eight billion or so soldiers dressed in black armor and with determined gazes gathered at the boundary of the Corpse Pall World, giving off an enormous aura. Zhao Fu stood in the sky, a trace of a smile on his face as he gave the order to attack.
The soldiers passed through teleportation channels, bypassing the cursed ground and appearing below the Corpse Pall World's defensive walls. The cursed ground had already been dispelled, and they no longer had any way of stopping Great Qin's soldiers.
"Kill!" Great Qin's soldiers roared, their voices shaking the heavens as they surged forwards like a black flood. They gave off an aura that seemed to be able to destroy everything as they flooded towards the defensive walls.
The sky was completely dark as various devils and beasts covered it, and the evil and dark aura covered the heavens and earth.
The terrifying aura and horrifying scene made the soldiers on guard look terrified. Their legs became weak as they yelled, "Great Qin is attacking!"
Everyone in the Corpse Pall World had sensed that something was off when the nine suns had appeared. Hearing that Great Qin was attacking, their expressions fell and they quickly led soldiers over, and the two sides started to fight.
Swish, swish, swish...
The Corpse Pall soldiers vigorously shot out arrows that tore through the air. Countless devils were hit and fell down like a rain of corpses.
However, even more devils and beasts leapt onto the defensive walls and started to fight with those soldiers.
A snake with sharp teeth moved like a bolt of lightning and bit a Corpse Pall soldier. Its sharp teeth easily pierced through the soldier's armor, and the soldier cried out as it was tossed aside by the snake.
A half-man and half-tiger devil wildly laughed as it charged into a group of soldiers. It swung out its paw and easily sent four of five soldiers flying, with deep gashes on their chests. The soldiers instantly died.
A two-headed rooster flew down from the sky, grabbed two soldiers with its claws, flew back into the air, and dropped them down. The rooster then flew down and used its beak to peck apart a soldier's chest.
The Corpse Pall soldiers desperately retaliated, using both weapons and bandages to attack the devils.
A Corpse Pall soldier used his bandages to bind up a devil before going up and using his saber to kill it. Another soldier combined his bandages and weapon and split a devil in half. Some soldiers even used countless bandages to pierce devils' bodies.
Blood flew everywhere and cries continuously sounded out as more and more people died. The battle was incredibly intense and caused people to feel a chill.
Momijigari, who was in charge of the devil army, landed on the defensive walls dressed in red armor. She drew two sabers and gave a wicked smile as she rushed at the soldiers. Her sabers sent out countless sabre lights, and the soldiers were unable to resist at all and fell at her hands.
轰轰轰...
The countless splotches of blood on Momijigari's face caused her smiled to look even more savage. She slashed out even faster with her sabers, causing limbs and blood to fly everywhere.
Great Qin's beasts also ferociously attacked the soldiers on the defensive walls. The 100 meter tall Corpse Soul Soldiers used their hammers to smash down, turning countless soldiers into meat paste. The countless Spiders used their knife-like legs to cut countless soldiers' bodies apart.
The Wyverns spewed out icy blasts and flames from the sky, and the Giant Wolves also rushed up and used their sharp teeth and claws to attack. The Nothingness Beasts appeared from behind the soldiers and madly attacked them.
With the cover of the devils and beasts, Great Qin's soldiers quickly scaled the defensive walls and started to fight with the Corpse Pall soldiers.
In just a few moments, the situation on the defensive walls became incredibly chaotic. Blood continuously flew everywhere and howls continuously sounded out. More and more people died, but most of them were from the Corpse Pall World. It seemed like the defensive walls would be taken at any moment.
Boom! Boom! Boom...
Cold auras exploded out, causing the weather to change as everyone felt a chill on their backs. 60,000 to 70,000 soldiers made of mud that stood 100 meters tall appeared.
These soldiers were all dressed in armor and held weapons, and they looked as if they were alive. They attacked Great Qin's beasts, and the two sides quickly clashed.
Massive explosions sounded out as wild gales blew. The Corpse Soul Soldiers went to meet these mud soldiers in battle. They were also soldiers dressed in heavy armor, and the battle between the two sides was extremely shocking.
The mud soldiers were another card that the Corpse Pall World had prepared. They had collected Yin Beast Clay and made these mud soldiers to resist Great Qin's beasts and devils.
The mud soldiers were not weak and their bodies were as tough as steel. As the Corpse Soul Soldiers' swords landed on the mud soldiers' bodies, they only caused shallow wounds.
However, there were far too few of them; Great Qin's beasts and devils greatly outnumbered them. Each mud soldier was surrounded by a few beasts, and no matter how tough their bodies were, they were gradually smashed apart. Great Qin still held the advantage.
Zhao Fu stood in the sky, facing off against the Corpse Pall World's seven Legatees. Their expressions were all quite unsightly because their defensive walls had nearly been breached by Great Qin. Their soldiers were not a match for Great Qin's soldiers, and their experts could not resist Great Qin's experts either.
"What do you have to say? Will you submit to Us or choose to die?" Zhao Fu said with a confident smile, his voice filled with domineeringness as he looked at the seven people.
The seven Legatees felt furious but did not dare to attack because they knew clearly that they were not a match for Zhao Fu.
"轰!"
"咔嚓!"
Seeing that they were not replying, Zhao Fu's gaze became cold and his body blurred as he suddenly appeared in front of one of the Legatees.
That person's expression fell, and before he could react, his throat was grabbed by Zhao Fu and his body was lifted. That person didn't hesitate to release his Nation Armament's power, wanting to break free from Zhao Fu.
Boom!
A massive aura spread out from that person's body, but at that moment, Zhao Fu also unleashed his Nation Armament's power and a terrifying aura exploded out from his body.
Crack!
Zhao Fu twisted with his hand and broke the Legatee's neck. A genius, the ruler of a Continent, and someone who countless people looked up to, had been killed just like that.
Seeing this scene, one of the other Legatees became terrified and quickly ran. However, Zhao Fu slashed out with his sword, slashing that person into pieces.
In front of Zhao Fu, all of them seemed incredibly powerless. Zhao Fu was using his Nation Armament, which contained the power of four worlds and three Continents. How could they defend with just the power of one Continent?
The remaining Legatees were all scared witless and remained in place, afraid that Zhao Fu would kill them in the next second.
Chapter 1391: Battlefield
Shi Xiao's face was pale. Looking at those two Legatees who had just died, her heart was filled with terror; she had never thought that Zhao Fu's power was terrifying to such a degree.
Zhao Fu's gaze now fell on her body. She was the World Protector of this world, and if she submitted, everyone else would not be able to resist anymore and would submit too. Great Qin would be able to easily obtain the Corpse Pall World.
Shi Xiao hesitated, but a Legatee next to her, a beautiful woman, flirtatiously walked over to Zhao Fu and said, "Your Majesty, I, Shi Su, am willing to submit to you. I'm also willing to become your Concubine and serve you."
She understood that even if she did not say this, Zhao Fu would do this. After all, Great Qin did not let off any women who had Phoenix Qi, and she was also the ruler of a Continent. They had long since heard of how licentious Great Qin's Emperor was.
Rather than being passive, it was better to take the initiative. Not only would she be able to protect the people from her faction, but she might also be able to obtain a decent status in Great Qin.
Zhao Fu smiled and did not refuse, and he brought her into his embrace and Shi Su charmingly leaned against him.
Seeing Shi Su surrender, the other Legatees surrendered as well because they did not want to go on like this. In the end, Shi Xiao decided to submit as well.
Now that they had all surrendered, the soldiers below did not resist anymore and also knelt and surrendered. However, some leaders of factions were not willing and ran away with their forces.
However, the Corpse Pall World had already lost and now belonged to Great Qin. Zhao Fu gave the order to start attacking the inner regions of the Corpse Pall World.
Great Qin's soldiers were like a flood that charged towards the Corpse Pall World, causing the Corpse Pall World to fall into panic.
Everyone else heard that the Legatees and World Legatee had surrendered, so most of the Corpse Pall people obediently came out and knelt on the ground, waiting for Great Qin's soldiers to take over their Cities.
Some people chose to resist Great Qin and planned to fight to the death, while others ran into the wilderness and wanted to hide from Great Qin's soldiers.
Great Qin's soldiers quickly took over region after region, and because the Legatees had already taken over entire Continents, there were not many factions. As such, it was quite easy to clear out regions and there was only some weak resistance.
Zhao Fu handed this place over to Wang Jian and headed to another battlefield because the Devil Horn Empire was currently madly attacking Great Qin.
After hearing that Great Qin was attacking the Corpse Pall World, Yao Ming had immediately attacked Great Qin. The ferocious Devil Horn Empire had split into three armies, attacking Great Qin's three Continents in the three different worlds.
Facing the ferocious Devil Horn army, Bai Qi did not feel any fear at all, and he instead coldly laughed as he yelled, "Formation!"
噗噗噗...
Large ballistae were pushed out, and countless arrows and bolts giving off cold lights aimed at the Devil Horn soldiers. The Archers drew their bows and aimed at the countless devil beasts and soldiers.
The Devil Horn soldiers were like a green tide that seemed to be able to devour anything. Yao Ming greatly wanted to take down these three Continents, so he had sent even more soldiers than last time.
Yao Ming looked at how ferocious his army was and smiled. Even if he was not able to conquer the three Continents, he would definitely be able to stop Great Qin from conquering the Corpse Pall World.
"Fire!" A cold voice sounded out as all of Great Qin's soldiers shot out arrows at Bai Qi's command. The arrows were innumerable and blocked out the sky, and the sounds they gave off made it seem as if the sky was going to be torn apart.
Swish, swish, swish...
Countless arrows tore through the sky and descended like a torrential rain. Facing this rain of arrows, the Devil Horn soldiers and devil beasts felt a terrifying chill and could not help but feel afraid.
They unleashed their abilities to defend; the Devil Horn soldiers at the front worked together to create a semi-spherical defensive barrier while the devil beasts created large winds to defend against the arrows.
However, they were left disappointed. The arrows easily pierced through their defenses and tore through their armor. The winds that the devil beasts summoned were also unable to deflect the arrows.
Chi, chi, chi...
The sounds of arrows stabbing into bodies could be continuously heard as waves of Devil Horn soldiers collapsed to the ground. Countless powerful devil beasts, whether they flew in the sky or ran on the ground, also collapsed with countless arrows sticking out of them.
Even the Devil Horn Empire's most powerful King Devil Beast, the Azure Dragon King, was hit by a 100 meter long bolt and fell to the ground, severely injured.
Corpses littered the ground and blood ran everywhere as the surroundings fell into a deathly silence. The ferocious Devil Horn army immediately stopped.
Yao Ming looked incredibly confused; he had never thought that things would turn out like this. Looking at so many dead soldiers and devil beasts, he immediately gave the order to stop attacking.
A powerfully-built General reported, "Your Majesty, their arrows seem to contain something that counter our armor. We should temporarily retreat, or else even more people will die."
After that General spoke, another soldier came to report, "The Corpse Soul World has been conquered by Great Qin!"
Yao Ming angrily cursed. They had been tricked by Great Qin's plot and Great Qin had already conquered the Corpse Pall World. As such, he could only give the order to retreat to the Devil Horn Empire.
Following this, Yao Ming immediately ordered people to research the arrows that Great Qin had used. They found out that they had Outer World materials added to them, which was why they had been so powerful. Hearing this, Yao Ming ordered people to find ways to neutralize them; they could not be continuously suppressed by Great Qin.
Zhao Fu came over and saw that nothing much had happened on this battlefield, and the Devil Horn Empire had quickly retreated, making him feel quite disappointed.
He then left things here to Bai Qi and had him deal with matters here. Having just conquered the Corpse Pall World, there were many things to take care of there, so he headed back.
Zhao Fu arrived at a Royal City, where there were many corpses hung up on the walls. There were men and women, elderly and children. Their necks were at angles and their eyes were wide. They had different expressions: anger, reluctance, and fear, looking quite wretched.
A Great Qin soldier tied a noose around a young man's neck and kicked him off. The other side of the rope was tied to the City Walls, and as the young man fell, the rope went taut, breaking his neck.
These people were all people who had resisted, and some were their family. They were all executed, no matter their gender or age.
