Heroes' Prison-Chapter 1186 - 1125: Sacred Sacrifice Artifact

At this moment, General Yue Hao urged his steed forward with a swift motion, and the warhorse neighed, advancing toward Huang Tian.

He raised his war blade high, striking down on Huang Tian’s head with the force of splitting a mountain.

The blade blocked out the sunlight, as if the sky itself were collapsing, causing the space around to tremble slightly.

Huang Tian quickly retreated and dodged, but his movements were noticeably slowed after being weakened by the formation, unable to completely evade the attack, and the blade still struck his shoulder!

"Slash~" The blade cleaved from Huang Tian’s shoulder all the way down to his left rib, almost splitting open the chest, so deep that bones were visible, and blood gushed out fiercely.

Huang Tian’s lips twitched, as he hurriedly raised his hand to try releasing a healing skill to mend his wound. However, after making the gesture, no healing light appeared, and he failed to activate the skill.

The second layer of the Ancient Battle Flag had a silencing effect on enemies, rendering Huang Tian unable to use skills anymore.

If it were the real Huang Tian, silence wouldn’t be an issue because demigods transcend skill levels. But the current Huang Tian was actually player Mo Shang Yueqing controlling; her power was still at the Heavenly Domain level, relying primarily on skills in combat, so being unable to use skills was an extremely severe handicap!

Almost instantly, the previous balance was shattered by the Ancient Battle Flag, and Huang Tian’s demigod war body was no longer a match for General Yue Hao!

General Yue Hao seized the opportunity, relentlessly attacking Huang Tian, his war blade swinging so fast it turned into phantoms. And Huang Tian, unable to use skills, could only rely on the speed of his body to barely dodge, often failing to completely evade, resulting in more and more wounds.

Huang Tian roared continuously, using all kinds of means to counterattack, but none had any effect, just struggling in vain!

"God of Slaughter, I didn’t expect besides Naga experts, there are also Dragonkin experts in your army!" Suddenly, an old woman’s voice came from the horizon.

Huang Yi turned to look, seeing four figures suddenly appear on the horizon, led by an old woman holding a crystal staff and wearing a sacrificial robe, the High Priest Li Ge of the Half-Beastmen clan.

Behind her were three female shamans also in sacrificial robes, holding a jar, a stone rod, and a skull respectively.

These three female shamans possessed immense auras, seemingly top-level celestial realm experts. The items they held were not ordinary, all exuding ancient vibes, as if from a barbarian wilderness era.

High Priest Li Ge raised her crystal staff, directly aiming at the array barrier, and shouted to the three female shamans: "Quickly awaken your sacred sacrificial artifacts, integrate them into my sacrificial staff, and break this array barrier!"

The three female shamans nodded and immediately raised the jar, stone rod, and skull, all aiming at High Priest Li Ge.

Then, they opened their mouths and sang an eerie, obscure sacrificial song.

The pitch of the sacrificial song rose and fell, sometimes sharp, sometimes distant, like a tune used by original ancestors to worship the heavens.

As the sacrificial song echoed, an intense ancient aura emanated from the jar, stone rod, and skull held by the three female shamans, all flowing into High Priest Li Ge’s crystal staff.

The staff, empowered by the artifacts of the three female shamans, shone brightly, shooting a primitive yellow light from its tip directly at the array barrier!

"Poof~" The array barrier was instantly melted into a hole, expanding outward rapidly!

Eventually, the entire array barrier dissolved away!

This array barrier had special defensive effects and required combined attacks to break; when Huang Yi was trapped by Sarantu, he used his divine artifact skill to finally break it. But Li Ge and the three female shamans broke it so effortlessly!

Now, Huang Tian was finally freed from the binding of the formation, quickly fleeing from General Yue Hao’s assaults, flashing to High Priest Li Ge’s side, breathing heavily.

The three female shamans combined to release healing skills, rapidly closing Huang Tian’s wounds so the blood stopped flowing.

High Priest Li Ge turned and looked at Huang Tian, saying, "Mo Shang Yueqing, the plan has changed! This Dragonkin Grand General is too strong, and the God of Slaughter’s true self has not appeared, possibly ambushing us anytime. We cancel the original plan, don’t fight them here, let’s retreat to the Sacred City first!"

Huang Tian glanced begrudgingly at Huang Yi’s incarnation and General Yue Hao but ultimately nodded in agreement.

High Priest Li Ge turned to look at Huang Yi from afar, sneering coldly: "God of Slaughter, we’ll relinquish this city to you. We’ll wait for you at the Holy City, hoping by then, you won’t hide behind these non-native experts, and face us head-on!"

With that said, High Priest Li Ge, the three female shamans, and Huang Tian all turned and sped towards the direction of the Sacred City, vanishing at the horizon in the blink of an eye. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Huang Yi and General Yue Hao dared not chase recklessly; just High Priest Li Ge alone was enough to make them wary.

Subsequently, Huang Yi and General Yue Hao quickly led their army to occupy the city. Countless soldiers delved into every corner, extracting all hiding enemies from their crevices, thoroughly cleaning the city.

Then, they continued to lead their forces forward, advancing towards the central Sacred City in the Half-Beast Holy Land.

Apart from Huang Yi and General Yue Hao’s main battle line, other army units were steadily advancing from all directions, frequent victories reported.

"[Legion Announcement]: The Sun Guild Legion led by [Tang Yunfei] successfully killed the Half-Beast Blood Demon Envoy·Blood Mark!"

"[Legion Announcement]: The Warrior Alliance Legion led by [Campus Basketball Fan] successfully killed the Half-Beast Blood Demon Envoy·Blood Tears!"

"[Legion Announcement]: Half-Beast Warrior Instructor [Dugu Mie] has fallen at Torrent Beach!"

"[Legion Announcement]: The Half-Beast Western Stronghold [Fallsnow Pass] has been breached!"

...

The dense legion information resonated throughout the entire battlefield, one expert after another from the Half-Beastmen clan, and numerous military strongholds, gradually became history with each announcement.

In each of Huang Yi’s subordinate legions, there were top-level celestial realm experts stationed, mostly elite experts sent by various NPC factions. For example, the Warrior Alliance; they sent 100,000 troops this time, mostly players, but with a top-level celestial realm NPC expert level 290 seated. To deal with such experts, only ascension-tier masters or beings like demigod war bodies would suffice. But the Half-Beast Holy Land deployed these top-tier forces at the Sacred City or targeted Huang Yi and Yue Hao’s main forces, paying little attention to other fronts.

Nonetheless, the outcomes on the periphery were inconsequential; ultimately, the outcome of the battle in the Sacred City would determine the victor, as that was where the final victory would be decided.
