Beast Taming: Slaughter Atlas-Chapter 498 - 442: Night Raid on the Blood God Sect
The overall commander of this battle is Long Batian. He has already arranged the schedule, and all the teams are setting out one after another.
Due to the different routes, people set out at different times.
The purpose of this is to launch an attack on all branches of the Blood God Sect at the same time, making it impossible for them to provide support.
In the blink of an eye, three days have passed.
After greeting his parents, Chu Chen took Su Zixuan to the teleportation array to meet up with Long Batian.
Although Long Batian has made all-round preparations for this raid on the Blood God Sect, unknown factors still exist, and bringing Su Zixuan could increase their chances.
As for the matter of the Abyssal Poisonous Spider, Zhu Dashan is still investigating with all his strength.
When Chu Chen met up with Long Batian, he found that Elder Liu Hongzhi was also going along.
Seeing this, Chu Chen quickly saluted and said, "Greetings, Elder Liu. I didn’t expect you to come along as well."
Upon hearing this, Liu Hongzhi smiled and waved his hand, saying, "No need for such formalities. This raid on the Blood God Sect has enough merits, so of course, I want a share. Surely you have no objections, young man."
Chu Chen hurriedly shook his head and said, "Elder Liu, you must be joking. With your participation, our operation is sure to be a great success."
Liu Hongzhi was an Emperor Level Third Rank expert. His participation would undoubtedly increase the chances of success.
"Haha, you’re a good talker. Well, it’s getting late. Let’s hit the road as soon as possible."
The three of them nodded and entered the newly established teleportation array together with Liu Hongzhi.
As a white light flickered, the four reappeared in a cave.
At this moment, a slightly hoarse voice came from not far away.
"Yuan Zhixing of the Qilin Army greets the two elders."
The four of them looked in the direction of the voice and saw a sturdy man saluting Long Batian.
Long Batian hurriedly said, "General Yuan, there’s no need for such formality. Have the Qilin Army assembled?"
Yuan Zhixing replied in a deep voice, "The entire army of 300,000 is already assembled."
Hearing this, Long Batian nodded and said, "Very good. How is the strength of these 300,000 troops?"
"All are above the Great Soul Master Level, with about half at the Soul Master Level."
Long Batian looked satisfied and immediately ordered, "Have the Great Soul Masters spread around the Main Sect. Once the battle begins, encircle the entire Blood God Sect and let no cultist escape."
"Yes!"
Yuan Zhixing took the order and left.
Long Batian immediately activated his communication bracelet to contact the other eight teams.
In the blink of an eye, half a day passed.
All teams have assembled now, but Long Batian did not immediately give the order to attack. Instead, he told everyone to stay on standby.
Everyone hid in the belly of the mountain. No one spoke. Each sat cross-legged in silence. Some were meditating and cultivating, some closed their eyes in contemplation, and others observed their comrades beside them.
Everyone understood the significance of this battle, and they were well aware of how perilous it was.
Many would lose their lives in this battle, but no one chose to retreat.
The Blood God Sect was like a time bomb. If they were not eradicated completely, it might erupt at any time, putting humanity in a two-front war and even risking extinction.
As time passed, the atmosphere in the cave grew increasingly oppressive.
Long Batian glanced at his communication bracelet and suddenly stood up.
"General Yuan, send the order to prepare for battle."
Yuan Zhixing immediately rose and took the order. As the commands were relayed down, the entire Qilin Army got up to assemble outside the cave.
At this moment, the other eight teams also finished gathering, marching towards the Blood God Sect’s branch halls.
The Main Sect was about half an hour’s journey from Chu Chen and others, and everyone focused silently on hurrying along.
When they arrived near the Blood God Sect, the previously dispatched Qilin Army had already surrounded the Main Sect.
The Blood God Sect looked like a massive ancient castle, blood-red in color, with blood-colored walls ten feet high and hundreds of cultists guarding them.
"General Yuan, you are the expert in commanding battles. I’ll leave it to you now." Long Batian said solemnly.
Yuan Zhixing replied with confidence, "Rest assured, leave it to me."
Yuan Zhixing waved at the messenger beside him and said, "Give the order, let the Assassination Army clear the eyes on the city wall, and have everyone else ready for battle."
The messenger immediately ran towards the troops behind.
Shortly, a group of soldiers in night suits appeared.
Seeing this, Yuan Zhixing waved his hand, "Go."
The soldiers promptly summoned their guardian beasts.
A group of pitch-black giant eagles appeared before everyone.
Seeing this, Chu Chen couldn’t help but look surprised. These black giant eagles were called Shadow Demon Eagles, of Perfect Level Upper Grade, and their realm was at Lord Level.
The Shadow Demon Eagle’s talent was the D-level Shadow Mist. They could release a cloud of black fog to conceal themselves, and their flying skills were outstanding, almost silent in flight.
Chu Chen, too, felt excited, and with a wave of his hand, summoned the Shadow Kill.
Chu Chen patted its insect leg and smiled, "You go have some fun too."
Upon hearing this, the cold killing intent flickered in Shadow Kill’s eyes.
In a blink, its figure disappeared without a trace.
Hundreds of Shadow Demon Eagles took to the air simultaneously, spitting out clouds of black mist. The sky above the city wall was instantly shrouded in darkness.
At this moment, the cultists of the Blood God Sect on the city wall noticed something was amiss.
"Brother Tao, why did the sky go dark? I remember the bright moon was just hanging high." A pale-faced youth asked in a low voice.
"What’s there to be curious about? It’s just some cloud covering the moon, and what’s dangerous in this godforsaken place?"
"True, but when can we go out? I’m going crazy staying here any longer."
"With your complexion, if you leave here, you’d get caught within a day."
As the two spoke, shadows shot out from the black mist in mid-air.
Before they could react, their heads were pierced by sharp claws.
However, the Shadow Demon Eagles sometimes missed their mark. A Blood God Sect cultist dodged an attack and was about to blow the whistle hanging on his chest.
Seeing this, a Qilin Army member thought to himself that it was bad and realized it was too late to attack again.
At this moment, a dark golden blade light flashed by, slicing the Blood God Sect cultist in two.
The Qilin Army member stood there in shock, unable to recover for a long time.
He looked in the direction where the shadow disappeared, only to see dark golden blade light flashing intermittently on the city wall.
Each time it flashed, another Blood God Sect cultist was killed.
The shadow moved incredibly fast, disappearing from the Qilin Army member’s sight in just a few breaths.
His companion’s reminder finally pulled him out of his daze.
"Did you see that just now?"
"I did. That should be one of the Alliance’s dignitaries’ guardian beasts. You were lucky. If that dignitary hadn’t acted, this ambush would have been exposed, and you would have faced severe punishment upon your return."
Hearing this, the Qilin Army member couldn’t help but show a hint of fear.
If the ambush failed, it would inevitably alarm the Blood God Sect, leading to a direct confrontation with potential casualties.
This time, they in the Qilin Army are the main force, and any losses are his comrades.
Seeing that the eyes on the city wall were cleared, Yuan Zhixing showed a look of joy and immediately ordered the gate to be opened.
"Give the order, charge."
With Yuan Zhixing’s words, hundreds of thousands of Qilin Army members surged forward into the city with great momentum.
The same scene played out at the other eight Blood God Sect locations.
