Chapter 727: Counterattack
The three thousand monks that Tathagata had sent were actually all Arhats.
They were even more powerful than the usual monks.
Their arrival had made the PaG.o.da-Bearing Heavenly King’s eyes s.h.i.+ne with hope as joy appeared on his face.
With the help of the Arhats, he could then easily breach through the Eight Front Formation.
The three thousand Arhats were located around the Eight Front Formation, surrounding the entire s.h.i.+fter Emperor’s Valley.
Once they were all in place, the three Arhats all took down the prayer beads from their neck and infused them with their Demesne powers. Then, they threw the prayer beads toward the Eight Front Formation.
“Watch out! Everyone, take cover!” When Xue Yingqi saw that, she quickly turned into her snake-woman form and formed a barrier with her sword chi.
When the members of the s.h.i.+fters heard what she said, all used their defensive techniques.
Next, three thousand strings of prayer beads began to spin outside of the Eight Front Formation. As they connected with each other, they all formed into a huge net.
All the members of the s.h.i.+fters Faction could feel a powerful pressure that was choking them as they stayed under the net.
When the powers of the three thousand Arhats were combined together, it was as powerful as one single attack from Tathagata. Even with the Eight Front Formation, they would not be able to defend against such an attack.
If the net formed by the prayer beads were to truly fall upon them, more than half of the tens of thousands of players within the valley would be critically injured.
Boom!
As soon as the net touched the edge of the Eight Front Formation, the Eight Front Formation looked like a mirror that had fallen onto the ground. At first, cracks appeared. Then, it instantly shattered. Even the eight mountains that formed the cores of the array crumbled at this instant.
Gah!
Without the protection from the Eight Front Formation, everyone within the s.h.i.+fter Emperor Valley was affected by the power as they coughed up blood. Zhuge Liang, who was controlling the Eight Front Formation, only had a sliver of life left. If he did not put away the Eight Front Formation at the final moment, that attack could have already killed him.
“Retreat!” Xue Yingqi yelled out to everyone behind them as she could sense the aura of death coming from the net created by the prayer beads.
But she only managed to yell out that sentence when the prayer bead net began to quickly fall upon them without the Eight Front Formation’s resistance.
No!
Xue Yingqi was already in despair.
The G.o.ds and the buddhas let out a wry smile as they looked at the members of the s.h.i.+fters Faction who had become very nervous.
Boom!
But the moment that the prayer bead net fell upon them, there was a huge booming sound and the prayer bead net was immediately stopped.
“What?!”
The PaG.o.da-Bearing Heavenly King and the others look down below in shock.
Xue Yingqi and the others were also very curious as they looked at the prayer bead on top of them.
“It’s the s.h.i.+fter Emperor!”
Xiao Yatou, who was sitting on a rooftop, began to cry. She then quickly played the f.u.xi Zither on her feet as she played a song from the anime “Fairy Tail.” As she played the song, musical notes began to enter the bodies of the other members of the s.h.i.+fters.
Everyone from the s.h.i.+fters Faction felt as if their bodies were on fire.
“s.h.i.+fter Emperor!”
“s.h.i.+fter Emperor!”
“s.h.i.+fter Emperor!”
The s.h.i.+fters yelled out, their voices becoming louder and louder. At this time, their morale had reached its peak. If there were any enemies standing in front of them, they would violently pounce on them and shred them to pieces.
Jiang Feng, who was holding the prayer bead net, looked at the G.o.ds and buddhas in the sky, and slowly pushed the net back.
“I already said that if the G.o.ds want to destroy the s.h.i.+fters, then I will kill the G.o.ds! If the Infernals want to destroy the s.h.i.+fters, then I will destroy the Infernals! If the buddhas want to destroy the s.h.i.+fters, then I will kill the buddhas! Now that I am here, no one can touch the s.h.i.+fters! Including that old baldy at the Greater Leiyin Temple!” As soon as he said that, his Demesnes began to circle around his body, forming a rainbow halo. He shouted out as he pushed the prayer beads net toward the G.o.ds.
Deicide in its staff form appeared in his hand, and he smacked it toward the prayer bead net, causing it to fly toward them in acceleration.
“Time Stop!” In order to stop the Buddhas from taking back the prayer beads, Jiang Feng waved his hand to stop time.
“Larger…” The Deicide instantly turned huge. He then had all his six Demesnes and the extra Demesne from the Chaos Lightning Orb infused into Deicide, and slammed it at the prayer bead net.
The moment time returned to normal, the prayer bead net crashed into the G.o.ds and buddhas.
Boom!
There was an explosion, and all the G.o.ds and buddhas that were struck by the prayer beads were blown away. Some of the weaker G.o.ds and buddhas were instantly killed, while those who were powerful had suffered great injuries and were not far from dying.
In just less than a minute, a large number of G.o.ds and buddhas had been killed. Even those that were alive had been scattered,
All the players either from those who were from the other factions that were watching it from the sideline or the players who were part of the s.h.i.+fters Faction that was watching from down below were instantly shocked. They all stared in shock. They did not expect that Jiang Feng would be able to repel the three thousand Arhats’ attack and kill so many G.o.ds and buddhas too.
Ding. System Prompt. Congratulations, you have reached level 299. You have received 96 free attribute points.
Jiang Feng’s original level was 251. After killing so many powerful G.o.ds and buddhas, he had immediately leveled up 48 times.
The only reason that he could level up so quickly was that the G.o.ds and buddhas were all quite powerful, and they gave plenty of experience points as a result.
“Attack!” Jiang Feng naturally would not show any mercy to those G.o.ds and buddhas that were in disarray. He knew how the G.o.ds and buddhas were treating the s.h.i.+fters. He would naturally not allow them to leave so easily!
With one command, all the members of the s.h.i.+fters Faction attacked the G.o.ds and buddhas that had been scattered.
He appeared next to the PaG.o.da-Bearing Heavenly King Lijing with a teleport.
“s.h.i.+fter Emperor! Die!” The PaG.o.da-Bearing Heavenly King Lijing then threw his bowl at Jiang Feng.
When Jiang Feng saw the PaG.o.da-Bearing Heavenly King Lijing’s bowl, he was stunned and said, “Er… Lijing, when did you become Fa Hai? I am not Bai Suzhen!”
The moment that the bowl was shot at him, he once again disappeared and appeared behind the PaG.o.da-Bearing Heavenly King Lijing. When he reappeared, he immediately struck Lijing with his staff.
The PaG.o.da-Bearing Heavenly King Lijing was a level 400 Divine Saint and he had the ability to at least react to it. A sword appeared from out of nowhere and blocked his beck.
Bang!
Despite blocking Jiang Feng’s attack, he was still thrown out.
It was people like Jiang Feng that truly showed the meaning of the words “brute force.”
When he left the Ice Age secret map, his bloodline had already reached its peak and his power alone could be compared to a Divine Saint. And with his skills, he could already dominate the PaG.o.da-Bearing Heavenly King Lijing in combat.
With the help of the Monster Trans.m.u.tation System, he had few chances of showing off his skills in battle. Since he could easily kill his opponent with brute strength, there was no need for him to waste his brain cells.
For example, since a tiger could easily kill a rabbit in one bite, there was no need to think about where it should bite so that the rabbit would not bite it back. If the tiger were to consider that, then it was an idiot.
“Retreat!”
When he saw that Jiang Feng was attacking him with Deicide again, the PaG.o.da-Bearing Heavenly King Lijing yelled out in fear as he disappeared.
All the G.o.ds and buddhas who were fighting with the members of the s.h.i.+fters Faction chose to retreat, and they did it very quickly.
“All high-level members of the s.h.i.+fters Faction, go and take over a city as quickly as possible!”
“Where are you going, s.h.i.+fter Emperor?”
“I am going to attack the Heavenly Palace!” Jiang Feng said to Xue Yingqi as he quickly gave chase toward the G.o.ds and buddhas that were escaping.
Now that the G.o.ds had low morale, this was the best timing to save Violetglow and Grandmaster Bodhi. He did not want to miss it!
