Chapter 364 Panick In The Yellow Stone City
The atmosphere within the Yellow Stone City was one of fear and nervousness as the devil army continued their relentless assault. The pitch-black energy spears, thrown by the young devil, caused panic among the cultivators on the city walls. The death of the Martial ascension realm expert had deeply shaken them, and they knew that their fate would be same if they slipped up a little in the ongoing battle.
Lan Yueyue, despite her injury, stepped forward and attempted to rally the cultivators. "We cannot falter now! We must stand together and protect our city! Prepare for the next wave of attacks!", she spoke with a determined expression.
The cultivators, standing on the city wall, nodded their heads. They knew their fate would be grim if they couldn\'t resist the devilish army. The devil plants, meanwhile, continued to corrode the heaven and earth around the city, their vines creeping closer to the city walls.
As the battle raged on, another young devil, standing alongside the one throwing pitch-black energy spears, stepped forward. His eyes gleamed with a sinister light as he raised his hand and chanted a series of ominous incantations.
A dark, misty energy began to shape up above his hands which swirled and expanded until it formed a massive, swirling vortex.
"What is this technique?", Lan Yueyue felt her heart trembling with fear just by looking at the dark vortex. She didn\'t know why but for some reason, her Instinct was telling her to leave the city wall as soon as possible.
"Behold the technique of our Nu clan, Soul Reaper vortex", the devil pronounced the name of the technique and threw the swirling darkness towards the city wall.
Lan Yueyue stepped to her side instinctively as she didn\'t want to face the swirl of darkness head on. The swirling vortex approached the city wall at a very fast pace and engulfed two warriors who were standing some distance away from Lan Yueyue.
There was no sound, no activity as the cultivators of the Yellow stone city looked at the swirling vortex with nervousness and fear in their eyes. The swirling vortex left the city wall after few moments and returned towards the side of the devils but it\'s impact was enough to create panick among the cultivators of the Yellow stone city.
The mysterious swirling vortex left but it rendered two cultivators soulless. Only their cold dead bodies remained behind to remind the cultivators about their impending doom.
"It is really a shame. I can only activate Soul Reaper technique only for few seconds. Otherwise, it will drain my own soul strength dry", the devil spoke. The swirling dark vortex returned to his side and vanished inbetween his palms magically.
"Nu clan young man, you are being modest. To be able to use the Soul Reaper vortex at your age, you are definitely a prodigeee among other devils of our capital", Lord Tianzun spoke from behind. Their was a pleased expression on his face as he looked towards the young talents infront of him.
"Senior Tianzun, thanks for your praise. I, Nu Chongyi will contribute whatever I can to contribute to the glory of our Abhorst empire", the devil who had just used the Soul reaper vortex spoke. His eyes gleamed with darkness as he looked towards cultivators atop the Yellow stone city \'s city walls.
The devils marched steadily towards the boundaries of the Yellow stone city. There was resistance from the cultivators of the Yellow stone city but their stalling effort was ineffective to stop the progress of the devil army.
The powerful devils were killing the upper echelon under Lan Yueyue time to time. Thus, the cultivators could only watch helplessly as they got surrounded by the boundless devil army.
Everything was going smoothly for the devil army but suddenly a frown appeared in the face of lord Tianzun. His expression changed slightly as he sent his soul consciousness towards the distant surrounding. "Yan Luo, Nu Chongyi, gather your companions and fall back to my side. These wretched humans has found some strong cultivators to stop us", he spoke with an irresistible voice.
"Lord Tianzun, as you wish", Yan Luo spoke. He and Nu Chongyi gathered their companions and went back towards the spatial crack but there was a confused expression on their faces as they looked towards lord Tianzun. They couldn\'t understand why the famous general of Abhorst empire commanded him to fall back.
"Don\'t be impatient. This planet is only a low grade planet but it must have emperors in their ranks. Wait for our own tribulation realm experts to come in. We will trounce them after we get reinforcement.
It is a pity that more powerful generals who are in emperor reallm, can\'t come in yet. Otherwise, we would have an easy win over these puny humans", lord Tianzun spoke calmly. Hus eyes remain focused on the distant horizon from where he could sense powerful soul fluctuations closing on them.
Few minutes later, numerous flying dots appeared in the distant sky of the Yellow stone city. The flying dots enlarged gradually and revealed to be numerous flying trasures of the Xuantian sect.
The Xuantian Sect had arrived, their mighty aura stopped the indomitable devil army for a moment. The cultivators who were riding the flying treasures, were astonished by the size of the devil army before them. They had been informed of the dire situation at Yellow Stone City, but seeing it firsthand was a shock to them all. The devil army seemed to stretch as far as the eye could see, with devilish creatures and dark energy permeating the air.
The ships descended on the Yellow stone city, casting a ray of hope onto the desperate cultivators of the Yellow Stone City. They could feel a surge of relief and renewed energy, knowing that reinforcements had arrived. "Finally", Lan Yueyue took a breath of relief after seeing the arrival of the Xuantian sect cultivators. She darted her eyes around to check if a certain person who always disturbed her sleep had come along or not.
"Cultivators of the Yellow stone city, fall back. You can rest while our disciples will guard the city walls of the city", Ying Chao spoke. He was the most powerful among among the new arrivals. So, he immediately took charge after reaching the boundary of the Yellow stone city.
"Lan family girl, you can fall back as well. It is not wise to stand in the frontline with the injury in your body", Ying Chao spoke.
Lan Yueyue was not willing to abandon the battle but the experts of the Yellow stone city convinced her. She had done her part by showing courage. So, it was time for her to rest a little and recuperate.
She couldn\'t neglect the repeated urging from her subordinate and other experts. She finally agreed to climb down the city wall and take a rest.
She was climbing down the stairs when a person appeared like a shadow. The experts around her clenched their weapons but a look of disbelief and happiness appeared on Lan Yueyue \'s face.
"I thought you will not come", her eyes misted up slightly. She was a brave and fierce girl but the person infront of her, unlocked the insecurity and hidden feelings in her heart.
