At that mont, the "Three-Eyed Blood Wolf" felt as if its body had been struck by a hamr, hit by at least four bullets.
The tal bullets, engraved with cross lines at the front, burst open upon impact with its body, creating huge wounds inside it.
The "Three-Eyed Blood Wolf" was unaware that this type of bullet was called a Dum bullet in another world; it rely felt its strength rapidly draining away.
Even these expanding bullets couldn’t inflict fatal damage on its massive body.
However, the bullets contained a powerful toxin that blended into its flesh and blood the mont they struck, causing the Three-Eyed Blood Wolf to instantly lose its combat ability as its body weakly sank underwater.
This scene also occurred in various directions on the central battlefield, where the two million-strong, majestic army of the aquatic clan faced an insurmountable wall, unable to advance even half a step beyond three miles from the enemy.
Their blood spilled out, turning the entire ocean area into a deep red.
One hundred thousand armored soldiers tirelessly fired their breech-loading rifles, the convenience of tal bullets allowing them to fire a shot every two breaths. The underwater environnt eliminated any worry about needing to cool their weapons.
Those 100,000 long rifles managed to fire in unison 60 tis in 120 breaths. A dense barrage of six million bullets and almost 30,000 shells rendered at least 450,000 of the deep-sea beasts utterly lifeless within a wide arc in front of them.
"Things have changed!"
Ao Shenghai, at that mont stationed at the left flank of the army, couldn’t help but sigh, "This era has indeed changed—"
It wasn’t his first ti witnessing the power of these firearms—the scene where Jin’s 170,000-strong Shenji Camp of the Forbidden Army crushed Fusou’s nearly one million-strong army had left a deep impression on him.
But Ao Shenghai was witnessing for the first ti this faster-firing ’breech-loading needle rifle’ and the blank cartridges that could be used underwater.
"My brother-in-law is using this opportunity to demonstrate power to all aquatic clans,"
Prince of the East Sea, Ao ngsheng, keenly sensed that Li Xuan’s force of ten thousand armies was even more majestic, more pure, and unified.
This enabled Li Xuan to gradually gain the upper hand in his aerial confrontation with the Kunpeng Emperor.
Ao ngsheng realized it was because all aquatic clans involved in the battle grew increasingly fearful of Li Xuan.
The scene where the 100,000 heavenly soldiers decimated more than 400,000 deep-sea monsters within a very short period while suffering minimal casualties themselves was enough to shock all onlookers.
At this mont, not only did those from the South Sea dismiss any improper thoughts, but the sea demons from Fusou were also filled with awe.
This widespread fear among the armies also allowed Li Xuan to extract more spirit essence from them, converting it into his own vast military power.
Watching the hundred thousand heavenly soldiers, Prince of the East Sea, Ao ngsheng, displayed a look of envy and desire in his eyes, "I believe we should buy more armor and firearms from my brother-in-law, as the 20,000 sets we have are far from sufficient."
He thought that with 100,000 muskets, the dragon clan’s rule over the East and North Seas would be unshakable.
Hearing this, Ao Shenghai rely gave a bitter smile as he had wanted to place additional orders a month ago.
But now, the production capabilities of the Shenqi Union and the Heavenly Court’s workshop were filled with orders from Li Xuan; when would they be able to place their order?
Furthermore, in Ao Shenghai’s view, although these muskets could strengthen the dragon clan’s power in the short term,
they could potentially undermine the very foundations of the dragon clan’s rule over the long term.
Their feudal system, as well as the noble status of the Jiao Dragon bloodline, might well be shaken.
anwhile, Ao Shenghai also noticed the Heavenly Empress Puji above the sea surface, bending over and looking intently, her expression evidently serious.
And those deities from Fusou were clearly fiercer in combat, fighting valiantly within the ranks of the deep-sea army.
Especially Susano-no-o, who, always highly reserved, now dared not slacken his efforts. He manipulated countless void Wind Blades underwater, tearing and shredding every water demon within half a mile ahead of him.
Almost at the sa ti, in the rear of the deep-sea army, the expression of the Kunpeng Emperor had beco exceedingly grim.
Just yesterday, he had thought this would be an evenly matched battle that would require days of fierce fighting to determine the victor.
Before the decisive battle started, the Kunpeng Emperor felt that his side could achieve victory within two Shichen.
For so reason, the enemy had foolishly arranged a thin battle line with a hundred thousand armored soldiers at the Central Army.
What did the opponent think his deep-sea army was?
In the heyday of the Three Dynasties’ Heavenly Court, even Haotian’s most elite Forbidden Army wouldn’t dare confront his two million water demon army head-on with just a asly hundred thousand n.
But the ensuing scenes delivered a harsh slap to the face of the Kunpeng Emperor.
At that mont, Gouchen Emperor’s voice suddenly resounded by Kunpeng’s ear, "The situation seems grim, we have already lost this decisive battle. I wonder what move the Emperor plans to make next?"
His voice carried a tone of cold indifference.
He was the God of War and Military from the Three Dynasties of Heavenly Court, always in command of the Heavenly Court’s forces, and deeply versed in military tactics.
So, less than a mont after the battle began, he had already determined the outco of the great war.
At this ti, if the mortal realm wasn’t ravaged by glaciers and the sea floor had enough food.
Then, the Kunpeng Emperor could still withdraw from the battlefield and reorganize his forces.
The vast expanse of the deep ocean harbored more than billions of water demons.
Losing these eight million aquatic clan big demons was a minor loss; the Kunpeng Emperor rely needed a few months to raise another force of eight million from the aquatic clan.
But the problem was, they didn’t have enough food, and even if he recruited those water demons under his command, he couldn’t sustain them.
After this battle, the Mysterious Yellow Emperor would undoubtedly beco the true ruler over the common waters of the Two Rivers, Five Lakes, and Four Seas!
In the next deep-sea war, how many troops could the Mysterious Yellow Emperor muster? Sixteen million, or perhaps eighteen million?
How many more would join the ranks of his Black Gold Armored Soldiers—fifteen thousand or twenty thousand?
Gouchen Emperor was highly pessimistic about this Kunpeng Emperor’s prospects of controlling the world’s water systems.
Back in the day, they had decided to ally with this person to leverage the power of the Great Emperor Tunhai underwater.
But now the situation had drastically changed.
If the Kunpeng Emperor didn’t have a suitable strategy to turn the tide of defeat, then there was no need to maintain their alliance any longer.
A Master Kunpeng who couldn’t reach the ’Divine Heavenly’ level wasn’t worth them compromising their bottom line and tarnishing their elder brother’s na of benevolence.
The Kunpeng Emperor also deciphered the implicit aning in Gouchen Emperor’s words, his eyes brimming with infinite fury.
But at this mont, he could only watch in amazent, looking toward Cibei Island ahead.
"Rember what I told you before the battle? Attacking head-on with the army gives less than a twenty percent chance of winning. The only hope for victory in this battle lies with that Mysterious Yellow Emperor."
High above, Gouchen Emperor’s eyes cleared, "You still decide on the act of assassination, to capture the king first? However, his power is stronger than you imagine."
"It is very strong, yet he is rely a sub-heavenly level, just needing a force exceeding the limit his body can handle, his body and soul will both shatter."
The Kunpeng Emperor had begun to act; his body standing on a reef transford into a mist and dissipated.
Simultaneously, a massive whale rose abruptly from the sea area around Cibei Island.
"Whether or not you want to help , it’s up to you! Your elder brother only needs to successfully re-establish the Heavenly Court to borrow limitless authority and reach almost the realm of transcendence. But without my support, he can’t do it!"
Gouchen Emperor hesitated slightly but still spread his thunder wings and dove down, following the Kunpeng Emperor toward Li Xuan.
He saw from a distance Li Xuan, with a calm expression, unfolding a vast Sword Diagram behind him.
Gouchen Emperor, undeterred, charged ahead, entering the Sword Diagram alongside the Kunpeng Emperor.
And at that mont, inside the Sword Diagram, he saw a gold and a red, two dazzling blade lights rise!
