Chapter 1181: Chapter 1183: Cannon Fodder
“Hold the line! We absolutely cannot let the beast tide break through the camp!”
Gongsun Yu and the others turned pale, drawing their weapons and unleashing spell attacks at the oncoming beast tide, with the Earth Bears leading the charge.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The loud explosions erupted, and the ascending flas engulfed the Earth Bears entirely.
The Earth Bears’ destructive power at close range was simply too formidable for Gongsun Yu and the others to let them near the camp. Otherwise, the protective barrier they painstakingly set up might not withstand a few of the Earth Bears’ frenzied attacks.
Thus, they showed no rcy, unleashing their ultimate moves from the start, converting their Primordial Force entirely into fierce attacks directed at the Earth Bears.
The combined power of ten people attacking with full force was considerable, and the Earth Bears in the front line were all knocked to the ground.
The Earth Bears indeed had thick skin and strong defensive capabilities, but they couldn’t withstand such fierce attacks all at once!
Typically, during a beast tide, the creatures at the front are just cannon fodder, with the truly fearso Desolate Beasts appearing at the back, making a grand entrance.
In previous beast tides, the Earth Bears indeed showed up at the back, but due to Sun Wukong and Shen Lang stealing the soul-honey, the Earth Bears went berserk, affecting the other Earth Bears, and they all charged forward with red eyes.
One by one, they stupidly dashed to the front, not considering they’d beco cannon fodder.
“Hmph! These Earth Bears really think they’re indestructible? The debt for hurting Old Zhou will be settled with them this ti!”
Individually, an Earth Bear was quite formidable in close combat, with astonishing destructive power, but in such a beast tide, the power they could exert was extrely limited.
Before the Earth Bears got within ten miles of the camp, an overwhelming barrage of spell attacks had already flattened them to the ground. No matter how tough the physical body was, it couldn’t withstand such attacks, and they were all smashed into pancakes.
However, the beast tide didn’t stop with the Earth Bears’ demise and continued advancing towards the camp.
Those at the front are always cannon fodder, but even cannon fodder has its purpose, which is to draw fire and exhaust defensive powers.
Whenever a beast tide is launched, all Desolate Beasts seem to be possessed, showing no fear or hesitation, with only one thought in mind: to destroy all outsiders that do not belong to the Desolate Beast Mountain Range!
Wave after wave of Desolate Beasts converged from afar, charging towards the Holy Book Academy’s camp.
It wasn’t just the Holy Book Academy’s camp; other forces within the Desolate Beast Mountain Range also faced attacks, though not as many Desolate Beasts were focused on them as here at the Holy Book Academy’s camp.
“How much longer until Wukong and Shen Lang complete their breakthrough? If this continues, the camp won’t hold!”
Gongsun Yu looked grim, and his eyes were filled with urgency. Although Sun Wukong and Shen Lang had made a lot of restorative Spiritual dicine for everyone over these days—allowing them to quickly recover their expended strength and hold out a bit longer—this wasn’t a sustainable solution.
The Desolate Beasts in the Desolate Beast Mountain Range seed endless and couldn’t possibly be all slain by their small group. Now that the beast tide had erupted, the more Desolate Beasts they killed, the more furious these beasts beca, and the greater their hatred for them!
If the Desolate Beasts breached the camp’s defenses, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Perhaps none in their group would leave alive!
As the beast tide continued to assault the camp and Gongsun Yu and the others desperately held their ground, Sun Wukong and Shen Lang’s breakthrough reached a critical point.
Just as Sun Wukong and Shen Lang had discussed, the reason they struggled to break through to the True God Realm was indeed due to the excessively high strength of their Divine Souls, requiring imnse Divine Soul Power for the breakthrough.
The Divine Soul Power converted from the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi simply couldn’t replenish such consumption, always leaving them one step short.
However, with the help of the soul-honey this ti, the missing Divine Soul Power was supplented, allowing Sun Wukong and Shen Lang to effortlessly cross the final threshold.
As they broke through, the commotion was imnse, drawing in Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi from hundreds of miles around.
It was due to this massive disturbance that the beast tide was triggered, catching all the major forces by surprise.
Sun Wukong and Shen Lang remained oblivious.
At this mont, they were imrsed in the wondrous sensation of their cultivation advancing, Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi continuously pouring into their bodies, transforming into Primordial Force within them through their respective Cultivation Techniques.
Sun Wukong and Shen Lang were both prodigious geniuses, capable of challenging those above their level; hence their breakthrough scene was extraordinarily terrifying.
However, a closer look would reveal that the Primordial Qi vortex Sun Wukong triggered was significantly larger than Shen Lang’s; if Shen Lang’s grasp of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi was plundering, then Sun Wukong’s was akin to a Taotie, frantically devouring.
Even though Shen Lang started absorbing the soul-honey’s power and cultivated after Sun Wukong, he completed his breakthrough before Sun Wukong.
Just two hours after the start of the beast tide, the Primordial Qi vortex above Shen Lang’s head abruptly contracted, awakening him from his cultivation as he opened his eyes.
“I’ve finally broken through to the True God Realm! Haha, now I can continue advancing towards the heart of the Desolate Divine Realm!”
Clenching his fists and feeling the powerful force of the True God Realm, Shen Lang was filled with joy. The power of the True God Realm had increased imnsely compared to the Sub-Divine Realm—they were not even on the sa level!
No wonder Second Brother Ye Liangchen advised that they must wait to break through to the True God Realm before advancing further into the Desolate City’s heart of the Desolate Divine Realm.
“Is Wukong not done with his breakthrough yet?”
After a mont of happiness, Shen Lang was startled by the noise outside. Opening his door, he saw the vortex of Primordial Qi above Sun Wukong’s roof was still continuing and showed no signs of dissipating, leaving him sowhat amazed.
He had started the breakthrough after Sun Wukong, yet he had completed it and reached the True God Realm, while Sun Wukong was still crazily absorbing the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi!
“Goodness gracious, the amount of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi Wukong is absorbing is terrifying!”
Shen Lang considered his internal power formidable among peers of the sa realm, but compared to Sun Wukong, it was like a minor witch witnessing a great witch!
