Chapter 2043: The a.s.sa.s.sination Operation
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Kill me in ten days?
An Lin was completely dumbstruck upon hearing this.
What did they have against him?
Why did they want to kill him so badly?
What about Cyril? What about Chen Chen?!
All he did was slaughter a few Heavenly G.o.ds and destroy two Heavenly Gates! Did that warrant such a vehement response?!
An Lin wanted to explode with rage, but he forced himself to calm down.
“Why are you all so intent on killing me? And why within ten days? Will I become super bada.s.s in ten days or something?” An Lin asked.
The Heavenly Sea G.o.d gave An Lin a rough recap of the deal Life and Heaven had made with Light, Earth, and Sea. As for why they insisted on having An Lin killed within ten days, that was not something the Heavenly Sea G.o.d was aware of. However, this was an irresistible deal, seeing as so many troops had been deployed to reinforce them as part of the exchange.
An Lin finally understood how so many Heavenly Human Tribe powerful beings had popped up on the central and eastern fronts; so the armies under the Heavenly Life G.o.ddess and Heavenly Heaven G.o.d’s commands had all been deployed! He really didn’t understand why these two Heavenly G.o.ds were going to such great lengths to kill him. He didn’t recall having any vendetta against them!
The Heavenly Sea G.o.d expressed his views on the matter; he felt like those two paramount Heavenly G.o.ds were fearful toward An Lin. They were scared that An Lin would continue to develop, and they wanted to kill An Lin before he had a chance to grow more powerful.
“Earth and I will be responsible for a.s.sa.s.sinating you. Not only that, but even the Heavenly Life G.o.ddess will unleash her secret weapon to attack you. This is something that even Light and Earth are not aware of…” the Heavenly Sea G.o.d continued in a grave voice.
This was the benefit of being a double agent; the Heavenly Sea G.o.d was aware of the plans on both sides, thereby allowing him to glean the most amount of information.
“The Heavenly Earth G.o.d plans to lure you to a gravity core location before unleas.h.i.+ng his most potent power of the earth to seal you. I think you should pretend to be unaware of his plan and allow yourself to be lured there. Theoretically, you will most definitely be defeated there, but I can tell you a few of the Heavenly Earth G.o.d’s fatal weaknesses that you can exploit. You have to gradually guide it, and so on so forth, so on so forth…” the Heavenly Sea G.o.d elaborated on the plan he had devised, and An Lin listened intently. This was something that could save his life, so he had to pay extra attention.
“So that’s how I advise you to combat the Heavenly Earth G.o.d. If you can’t win, you can still run away, but if you do win, I can help you land the killing blow on him. That’s also part of my agreement with Life and Heaven…
“The biggest unknown factor in this operation will be the Heavenly Life G.o.ddess’ secret trump card. That is not something even she can control. She is completely insane, so we must be very careful during this upcoming battle.”
An Lin committed all of the Heavenly Sea G.o.d’s advice to memory.
He also had many trump cards, but he was feeling quite uneasy.
This battle was going to be the highest-caliber one he had ever been involved in. There were going to be three paramount Heavenly G.o.ds taking part in it. Earth, Sea, and Life each held different objectives, thereby culminating what was surely going to be an extremely perilous battle. But at the same time, this was a fantastic opportunity. For some reason, just the very thought of this made An Lin tremor with a mixture of fear and excitement.
He had been invincible for so long that the blood within his body was beginning to seethe and churn from the prospect of facing enemies that could threaten his life.
“Everyone, get ready! Activate the Heaven Vanquis.h.i.+ng Formation!” Michael stood at the forefront of the army, and he spread his eight wings as he yelled.
Nine Dao Integration Stage, ninety-nine Return to Void Stage, and nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine Soul Formation Stage powerful beings all poured forth their energy into the formation etched into the earth of Yue Tong City.
The internal section of the formation was a black ring that encompa.s.sed a radius of over a hundred kilometers, whereas the external section was a white ring that covered a radius of over a thousand kilometers. The black and white rings fused together at a certain point, and one gave rise to the other, thereby creating an infinite loop.
Not only that, but there was nine-colored divine light erupting into the heavens from the very center of the formation. It was like a sword or spear that threatened to pierce through the entire heavens, emanating exceptional power that struck fear into the hearts of all living beings.
This was a G.o.d of Creation Stage formation that had been left behind at the Holy Paradise by a G.o.d-like being that no longer resided in this world. Its name was the Heaven Vanquis.h.i.+ng Formation.
All allies who entered this formation would be able to tap into their latent potentials to a great degree, thereby drastically enhancing their combat prowess. Furthermore, the nine-colored divine light at the center of the formation was a devastating weapon and also the final trump card of the Central Front United Army. Now that the final battle had commenced, they had finally brought out this trump card!
There were over ninety million troops in the Central Front United Army, and all of the most powerful beings among them were situated within the Heaven Vanquis.h.i.+ng Formation. The rest of them were distributed around the battlefield, forming battle formations of various sizes that could engage in mobile guerilla warfare.
The Divine Source Pavilion of the Four Nine Immortal Sect had also set up their Hundred Immortal Formation. This formation was unable to combat Divine Heaven Stage enemies, but it had no problem crus.h.i.+ng Heaven Pioneer Stage Great Generals.
Furthermore, the three heavenly disciple candidates, Michael, the Battling Buddha, and Yun Mengying, were also releasing auras that were comparable to Heavenly G.o.ds. They stood at the forefront of the army, directly before the devastating oncoming army.
The nine Dao Integration Stage Vermilion Birds were also unleas.h.i.+ng boundless flames, making it appear as if nine suns hung in the sky. They were also extremely fearsome and presented severe intimidation to the enemies.
The War G.o.d of the human race, An Lin, and the mysterious Divine Phoenix Maiden stood silently atop the city wall. They were the pillars of the Central Front United Army.
However, such a powerful lineup didn’t do much to soothe the anxiety of their troops. That was because they were facing enemies that were also extremely formidable, to the extent that all of them would be too scared to fight if not for An Lin and Xu Xiaolan’s support…
The enemy army comprised of over two hundred million Heavenly Humans, along with thirty thousand powerful beings from the Creation Realm, Blood Tribe, Void Spirit Tribe, and Western Dragon Forest. Among them, there were twelve Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures and over fifty Heaven Pioneer Stage Great Generals…
There were even ten Heavenly G.o.ds, who were considered to be final bosses. How terrifying was that?
One had to realize that on the battlefield, only the three heavenly disciple candidates were comparable in power to the Heavenly G.o.ds. Even if they fought without any regard for their lives, they would only be able to bring down three Heavenly G.o.ds at most. Who was going to combat the seven remaining Heavenly G.o.ds?
No matter how many troops they had, seven Heavenly G.o.ds would be able to crush them. There was simply an insurmountable gap in power that could not be bridged by numbers.
Their last resort would be to ask An Lin and Xu Xiaolan to fight. However, who would combat the paramount Heavenly G.o.ds then?
Thus, this was going to be an extremely perilous battle, and they couldn’t simply rely on An Lin and Xu Xiaolan. Everyone had to be willing to fight to the death, and even then, there was still a good chance that they would lose. Everyone was actually aware of this, but the vast majority of them still chose to fight!
This was certainly not going to be an easy battle…
With this in mind, An Lin turned with a curious expression to the muscular male True Demon who had a ma.s.sive gourd on his back. “Did Cyril send you here as a precaution for situations like this?”
