Xiao Tianlong did not think that the power of the blue light was so great that even could damage the soul-absorbing vase. It could not be underestimated.
He was very frustrated. He thought that the situation of this war had been changed. The enemies entering the city would soon be wiped out. Ninth Heaven Condor and the emperor of Yingtian Country would be defeated. However, the situation changed back suddenly. The tense war would continue.
The imperial master had a sense of ominousness. The war was so fierce and the situation was very tense. It was hard to say who would win.
The soldiers and people in Tianyue Country were excited to see their enemies suddenly became dull and dead bodies without souls. They planned to take counterattack. However, their regained confidence was broken down. They fell into desperation as in the h.e.l.l.
The situation of the crisis had not been changed. Xiao Tianlong tightened his nerves again. He frowned and looked around. He was very annoyed and anxious.
He handed the destroyed vase to his subordinates and immediately flew up to the city. In any case, he needed to make sure the safety of the emperor and queen and repelled the attack of the strong enemies.
The imperial master was stopped by the enemies before he could enter the city. It was Ninth Heaven Condor and some other monsters who had been conquered by him.
Talking about Ninth Heaven Condor and the emperor of Yingtian Country, they were excited about their victory. They found their subordinates became dull and ignorant. They stopped fighting. It was really surprising.
At this time, Ninth Heaven Condor found that even the emperor of Yingtian Country and the subordinates did not escape from the disaster. He immediately woke up. He knew his opponent had already activated the horrible soul-absorbing vase and suddenly panicked.
Before his soul was absorbed, he hurriedly recited the spell and threw out the prepared pearl towards the vase.
At the same time his lost his soul, the soul-absorbing vase was also destroyed by the pearl. Ninth Heaven Condor and the subordinates who lost their souls recovered.
The time for the soul-absorbing vase to absorb the enemies" souls was short. During the short moment, more than half of the enemies who had entered the city were killed. By the time the souls returned to their flesh, the enemies had lost their momentum.
Ninth Heaven Condor and the emperor of Yingtian Country recovered when their souls returned to them. They were shocked and fearful. They felt deeply fortunate to have saved their lives.
They did not know the details and was afraid that this kind of horrible thing would happen again. In order to preserve their strength, they commanded the subordinates to retreat out of the city and took action relying on the situation.
Ninth Heaven Condor saw the soul-absorbing vase showing up, so he knew that Xiao Tianlong had come back and joined in the war. Facing the strong enemy, he was nervous immediately and worried about the uncertainty of the victory.
The snow sculpture elf dared not wait for long. He flew out of the city with some of his fellows. He had not expected that he met the imperial master face to face.
They had met with each other for a few times and knew each other deeply. They said nothing and drew out their weapons to fight against each other.
Both of the sides were fierce. One tried to defeat the invaders and drive all the criminals and monsters away; the other tried to kill his strong enemy and realize his ambition of dominion.
At this time, Zhang Yunyan and the other ministers arrived at the gate of the city. Finding the war was so fierce, they were shocked.
Xiao Tianlong and Ninth Heaven Condor were fighting against each other fiercely. They tried their best to attack and hoped to kill each other to get the final victory.
One used a sword while the other used a hammer. Sometimes, they fought on the ground or jumped into the air. Sometimes, the sword and the hammer hit against each other. Sometimes, they activated their magical exercises. After a while, they were both in great anger and hoped to kill each other right now.
When the two fought against each other for a while, Ninth Heaven Condor was unwilling to insist, because he found that it was difficult for him to win and if he continued, he might get in danger.
The snow sculpture elf knew clearly the situation had totally changed that their attack had been stopped. They needed to find out new countermeasures and redeploy troops. Under pressure, he had to lead his subordinates and the other monsters to retreat.
Xiao Tianlong knew the enemies were not defeated, but temporarily retreated, so he did not follow up.
He worried about the safety of the emperor and the others and also needed to solve some urgent issues. He stepped in the city with the others, rushing towards the imperial palace directly.
The emperor and the queen, so as the ministers, were astonished but unharmed.
Thanks to the damaged national treasture—the Ninth Heaven Pearl, all the people in the palace were unharmed. Though that treasure was out of light, its power was not completely lost. It prevented the imperial palace from invasion.
The most urgent thing was to recover the power of the national pearl to prevent the city from destruction.
Xiao Tianlong jumped up to the top of the Pearl Tower, finding that the Ninth Heaven Pearl was covered by a thin layer. It was not damaged, so he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
He looked at it for a while and did not figure out what the cover was. He hoped to take it off but it was attached tightly. It was difficult to get rid of it.
The imperial master frowned and looked at it again. He could not figure out what it was, so he had to find out another way. He activated his internal force to remove the cover, but there was still no effect with his force enhanced.
He was very surprised and worried. He did not know how to fix it.
The recovering of Ninth Heaven Pearl would be important for the situation and ending of this war, relative to the living of the palace and people in the city, and critical to the survival of the country.
It was terrible that the pearl was damaged that it could not show out its strong power. The war was in jeopardy and it was hard to tell who would win.
Xiao Tianlong had no way to restore the Ninth Heaven Pearl at this moment and felt very worried for the national treasure which had lost its original strong power. He was anxious and frowned, looking at the outside of this city and sighing. He had no confidence to win this battle.
The imperial master knew the enemies did not withdraw and was regrouping to prepare for a new round of attacks. The next war would be more intense, and would be the critical battle to decide to win or not. It was very important and cruel.
He was worried about the safety of the capital. Since it lost the protection of Ninth Heaven Pearl, the palace would be in great crisis. All the soldiers and people were all in danger. The consequences would be terrible and he dared not to think further.
Although Xiao Tianlong was very nervous and worried, he was not afraid of strong enemies and had the confidence to fight against the Ninth Heaven Condor and the tyrant of Yingtian Country to the end.
He looked at the consequences of the fierce battles—those broken walls, distress everywhere, and the diffused smoke. All of these were miserable.
He was told that there were many soldiers and civilians who were killed and injured, so he felt more painful.
The imperial master looked at the busy soldiers and the people and worried about the upcoming battle which would be much more fierce. He did not know how many lives would be taken away.
The situation was serious and the battle was not clear. He was very anxious and sighing from time to time.
Facing the crisis, Xiao Tianlong felt deeply responsible. This was related to the survival of the country and the lives of the military and civilians. He did not know whether he could afford this duty and accomplish this sacred mission.
The enemies had arrived in the city, so they had no way to retreat. The imperial master could only fight hard and did its utmost to protect the city and the lives of soldiers, and to prevent the people from suffering.
Xiao Tianlong thought of the fierce battle just now and the scene was still memorable and overwhelmed. Thanks to his timely return, the capital was not completely conquered and he could temporarily change the disadvantageous situation.
He was very scared. If he came back later, the capital would be completely destroyed by the enemies and become a ruin. The palace would eventually be conquered. The emperor, the queen, and the other ministers would die in the battle or be captured. The consequences were unimaginable.
If he was still trapped in the alienated world, the Tianyue Country would be destroyed. One day when he came back, he would face the horrible scene of the damaged country.
If Zhang Yunyan did not activate the Tongtian Precious Carriage, Xiao Tianlong would not return to Tianyue Country. He would look for the first prince first and come back home together.
If it was so, he would make a big mistake. The country would be destroyed and the creatures would suffer. He would commit the fault to lose the people and country.
In this regard, although he was not deliberately to cause this tragic and he could not control the results, he would be saddened and regretted to see the tragic situation of the country.
In this way, Xiao Tianlong really wanted to thank Zhang Yunyan. This friend between generations miraculously tore off the charm to save him at the condition without a soul.
Besides, she activated the Tongtian Precious Carriage by accident, so Xiao Tianlong could not go for the first prince. He could only return to the hometown first and come back so timely.
It could be said that it was Zhang Yunyan who tore off the charm to save Xiao Tianlong and activated the Tongtian Precious Carriage to save Tianyue Country.
The two coincidences were both indispensable to lead this good result. Otherwise, the imperial master could not come back to the capital timely at the urgent situation of this country. He could not change this disadvantageous situation. Even though it was temporary, the military and civilians had seen the hope.
Zhang Yunyan not only saved Xiao Tianlong, but also saved the people of the city and saved Tianyue Country. At least, it was temporarily safe.
These things happening before and after were very intriguing. Should it just be a coincidence?
Zhang Yunyan experienced one accident after another, causing this impossible coincidence. Therefore, Xiao Tianlong could come back to save Tianyue Country in time and defused the crisis.
No matter which accidental part was wrong, this coincidence would not happen. No result at this time would exist.
When thinking about it in details, he found that those coincidences were really unimaginable. Coincidence could not be the right word to explain reality. No one knew why this would happen. Was there any reason behind the "coincidence"? Perhaps, only G.o.d could know.
It was also difficult to say. The G.o.ds of different worlds would not know clearly about this. After all, the two worlds had thousands of years of the time interval. It was only a mystery of no solution.
Xiao Tianlong tried his best to get rid of the cover on Ninth Heaven Pearl, but he did not succeed. He felt really depressed and anxious, but could only come back without any solution.
It was anxious that the national treasure could not exert its greatest power. However, what was a little bit comforted was that the Ninth Heaven Pearl was not completely damaged. It could also protect the palace and surroundings.
In the last fierce war, it was rare to have such a shelter. Everyone had something to rely on and their uneasy feelings could be eased.
The emperor was discussing some major issue with the imperial master and the other ministers. They decided to redeploy the army forces at the four gates of the capital to prepare for the defense of the attack from their enemies.
In the previous fierce war, the enemies had arranged similar forces at the four gates of the capital and took attack at the same time. Besides the army of Yingtian Country, there was a troop of beasts which was led by Ninth Heaven Condor. They were fierce and horrible.
In the fierce battle, the power of Ninth Heaven Pearl had been weakened. The soldiers of Yingtian Country and the beasts were fiercely attacking this critical both on the ground and in the air. The capital was almost lost in a short time.
The battlefield moved into the capital and the two sides launched fierce fighting on the streets. The situation was in jeopardy.
At this moment, Xiao Tianlong arrived and absorbed all the souls of those soldiers and beasts, easing the critical situation.
Although the mitigation time was short-lived, it played a key role. The soldiers of Tianyue Country seized this chance to kill almost half of their enemies and forced them to retreat out of this city.
Talking about the fierce beasts, Ninth Heaven Condor had no ability to control them totally. They were managed by his eight subordinates which were recruited recently.
These eight beasts were sworn brothers, known as "Eight Devils in the Mountains". They were all monsters with great talents. Their skills were though and temperaments were daunting.
Let"s talk about them first.
