Chapter 74

Receiving the order from Jian Nanxing, the elites of Xuanwu Country immediately stood to one side, weapons in hand.

"You probably don't know yet, but from the very beginning, we have quietly set up this grand array surrounding the entire Hundred Flowers City. Now is the time!"

As soon as he finished speaking, beams of white light shot up into the sky, looking just like the white walls. Zhou Xian could clearly see that the grand array surrounding the Hundred Flowers Palace was clearly delineated by these "white walls," turning the entire area into a maze and dividing it up!

"Amazing, they even have this trick!"

The demon warriors who had just displayed their great powers were now separated by the grand array.

"Trouble, this way we can't help the demon warriors anymore!"

This situation made Fairy Caidie worried.

"Let's see what happens first."

A transparent wall also appeared in front of Zhou Xian. Although it didn't obstruct his view much, the feeling it gave him was very uncomfortable.

The other side hadn't finished yet.

After the array was activated, the other side suddenly teleported an unknown number of people over, and the number of people on the other side quickly doubled!

"Prepared to this extent, huh." Zhou Xian's previous advantageous situation was broken by this move.

...

"Ha ha ha!!" On the other side, Jian Nanxing was laughing triumphantly.

"Didn't expect it, did you? Even if you knew I was planning a scheme, what could you do? My True Wu Xuanxiang Array is not something a naive child can understand. Now that I have activated the True Wu Xuanxiang Array, even if you are the Son of Heaven, you must listen to me!"

After being divided by the grand array, the originally temporary troops had become almost powerless.

They were easily scattered and cut off by Xuanwu Country.

"Everyone, once we annihilate these troops, we will rule this city!"

Then, I will be a city lord too!

Jian Nanxing was now excited.

But before he could continue to be happy, the ground under the front-line troops began to collapse, and thorns began to emerge, causing the Xuanwu people to stumble unexpectedly!

"There are even traps! Hmph, this is just a last-ditch effort! When the True Wu Xuanxiang Array is activated, they can't get out of the array at all!"

The True Wu Xuanxiang Array is a maze array, and it cannot be easily destroyed. Within this array, there is a very important point, which is the exit, the "gate of life" of the array. However, Jian Nanxing directed the exit straight to his own camp, turning the gate of life into a gate of death, leaving them with no place to run!

Because of this array, he didn't care about the thorns on the ground at all.

However, they didn't notice that these thorns, although causing little damage, were beginning to turn red as the damage increased, and soon strange, meaningless stripes appeared on them.

If there were people who studied the history of the demon race here, they would immediately recognize: this thing is definitely a demon trap!

The trap itself is not particularly sophisticated, but these thorns, after attacking others, have a very sinister ability: they can absorb the life essence of the attacked, and when the energy storage reaches a certain level, they will activate and become "living" beings, with powerful strength and the ability to replenish themselves by absorbing the blood and qi of others.

Jian Nanxing, who was now going smoothly, naturally wouldn't pay attention to these details. But his lack of attention doesn't mean no one else did.

"Be careful, these thorns seem a bit off." Night Blood Lady had been watching the battle from the air. She didn't comment on the battle itself, but the current situation made her feel something was wrong, so she had to come over to warn them.

"Lady Night Blood, welcome to my command center. Please rest assured, the enemy is no match for us."

It's precisely because the enemy looks no match for us that I came over! The uncomfortable feeling from the thorns on the ground was already stimulating Night Blood Lady.

At this point, the battle had entered the city. Due to the influence of the True Wu Xuanxiang Array, the troops had no depth and could only retreat step by step.

Jian Nanxing could already feel the victory within reach: "I will fight all the way to the Hundred Flowers Palace!"

"Rumble—"

The ground shook again.

At this moment, even the other people of Xuanwu Country were looking around uneasily.

"Rumble—!"

A huge Xuanwu emerged from underground.

The players of Xuanwu Country looked at each other in surprise.

This... is friend or foe?

Undoubtedly, this Xuanwu puppet is their enemy.

As soon as the Xuanwu puppet appeared, it launched a charge attack on everyone present. The Xuanwu people, caught off guard, were trampled by the monster!

"Attack! Quickly!"

They immediately fell into chaos, launching attacks at the Xuanwu puppet.

The Xuanwu puppet endured their attacks and suddenly let out a roar, followed by the ground shaking!

This was the ground split attack used by the Xuanwu puppet after absorbing enough anger!

The terrifying ground split quickly made the Xuanwu people lose their footing and fall to the ground!

This almost absurd scene made the temporary troops stare in shock: this is too bizarre!

This strange situation left them somewhat at a loss.

Why is this Xuanwu puppet fighting these people?

Aren't they all "Xuanwu"...

Almost everyone's face was filled with confusion.

But the Xuanwu people were already fighting this puppet. The puppet had already caused them heavy losses, and the Xuanwu people, with bloodshot eyes, wouldn't care about this.

However, they didn't notice that the more they attacked the Xuanwu puppet, the more frequently the puppet used the ground split skill. The puppet uses skills based on anger, and this skill, once used, would make people suffer greatly.

This "Xuanwu vs. Xuanwu" spectacle also left Jian Nanxing dumbfounded: "What's going on? How did this Xuanwu puppet appear?! Isn't this Xuanwu? Why is it fighting us?!"

"Ah—This is the Xuanwu puppet of the Four Saints under the Central Earth City!"

Finally, someone recognized the identity of the Xuanwu puppet.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's surprised gaze fell on the Xuanwu puppet.

The Central Earth City is buried with the highest-level essence data of ancient craftsmen. Among them, the puppets of the Four Saints are the masterpieces. Previously, the Xuanwu and Zhuque people had fought over related tasks. Now, a real Four Saints puppet appeared before them! "Quick! Summon the Xuanwu phantom!" Jian Nanxing immediately gave the order. The Xuanwu phantom is a summoned shadow of Xuanwu, and using Xuanwu to fight Xuanwu was Jian Nanxing's idea.

"Trouble, this person who can control the Four Saints puppet is not someone we can deal with... The Xuanwu phantom is water-based, while this Four Saints puppet is earth-based 'Disha Xuanwu.' Earth overcomes water, and the commander of Xuanwu Country seems to be just a mediocre talent, not worth cultivating."

Seeing this situation, Night Blood Lady sensed danger and didn't want to remind Jian Nanxing anymore. Taking advantage of the distraction, she quietly slipped away, just as she had quietly come to Jian Nanxing's side. As expected, the summoned Xuanwu phantom was quickly defeated by the Xuanwu puppet, with each attack being a critical hit due to the attribute advantage.

Although the Xuanwu puppet was powerful, the number of people on the other side was also too many. Even after defeating the Xuanwu phantom, the Xuanwu puppet's health quickly dropped to one-third, and it was about to be unable to hold on.

At this moment, a huge White Tiger puppet descended from the sky, and the White Tiger, with its aura, was not just a passive Xuanwu puppet. As soon as it appeared, it drew everyone's attention.

"Quick! Attack! This is a critical moment, we can't fail now!"

Jian Nanxing didn't hesitate and immediately took command.

With Jian Nanxing's command, the situation improved. However, the White Tiger was agile, and one swipe could knock out several people. Although the number was small, it severely affected morale.

Then, with a bird's cry, a Zhuque puppet flew down from the sky, unleashing a raging fire on the ground!

"Damn, this bird is flying so high, the Xuanxiang Array can't block it!"

The Zhuque puppet continuously rained down meteor fire, bringing a scorching heat. The existence of the Zhuque puppet made them feel terrified.

Each puppet was over ten meters tall.

For an ordinary person, such a size difference was already significant. In their view, perhaps there was one word to describe their feeling when they saw the puppets.

That word is "awe-inspiring."

The puppets indeed brought only awe.

At this moment, a dragon's roar echoed from the sky, and a more imposing Green Dragon puppet appeared on the battlefield. For a moment, all four voices gathered.

Before people's expectations ended, a group of demon warriors and Fairy Baihua, led by Zhou Xian, suddenly launched an attack, appearing behind the Xuanwu camp and quickly disrupting the rhythm of the Xuanwu battle.

"Damn! How could you get out?! The True Wu Xuanxiang Array was prepared for forty-nine days, and forty-nine people stood in position to use it, it should at least trap you for three hours!"

Hearing Jian Nanxing's words, Zhou Xian couldn't help but laugh: "Hmph, who told you this idiot to put the exit in your own camp? When the exit is
