The Master of Beasts-Chapter 680 - 197

"Boom"

The heavy gate slowly rose, and Zhan Ge was the first to cross the city gate, followed by a large group of Northern Guards, and behind them, a large group of menacing Spiritual Beasts.

The overwhelming army soared along the ramp, making the bewildered caravans and Loose Cultivators tremble.

"What's happening?"

"Looks like there's going to be a war," a perceptive Loose Cultivator speculated.

"Surely not. I haven't seen any draft notice!" another Loose Cultivator rebutted.

Generally, when a sect or some force plans to expand, they issue draft orders immediately, using resources to recruit Loose Cultivators to fight for them.

"Draft? Ha, with such a number of Spiritual Beasts, not fewer than twenty are Heavenly Immortals; why would they need us?" A Loose Cultivator self-deprecatingly said.

"That's really unfortunate. I actually wanted to go for Star Moon City's draft; at least it seems safer than other forces. Taking a gamble might carve a better path!"

"Buddha is merciful!"

Not long after Zhan Ge departed, Kai Ming also led Chen Jiuge's supported Spiritual Beast army to the city gate.

"Master Mo, logistics is up to you!"

Mo Ming casually said, "Don't worry, I'll have Bai Wei accompany the master so they can look out for each other!"

"That's good, since it is the Five Elements Sect's City of Exploration, we should be cautious!"

There weren't many direct disciples of the Five Elements Sect in Star Moon City, so attacking the Five Elements Sect's City of Exploration didn't stir too much resistance among people, which was a positive for Chen Jiuge.

Atop the city wall, seeing off the army, Chen Jiuge murmured in a voice only he could hear, "May everything go smoothly."

The fusion time for the Golden Desert and the True Realm was actually not much left; originally, such new regions would only fuse once every ten thousand years, but now, perhaps due to the Underworld's invasion, a Great Power rechecked it, and only less than a thousand years remained.

The Golden Desert is actually vast; the True Realm's expansion is just the outermost edge expanding a short segment outward, so its width is not extensive, but the length is significant—it wraps around the entire True Realm!

"Completely occupying the entire Golden Desert is impossible; we can only do our best!"

........

At No. 13 Pioneer City, the cultivators guarding atop the city wall listlessly moved about, their wandering eye revealing a hint of sleaziness, as if contemplating where to spend time off-duty.

"Have you heard? The City Lord returned!" the number one guard suddenly said.

The number two guard waved lazily, "What's it to us?"

"Star Moon City has been developing rapidly lately; after merging Beauty Valley, it doesn't seem smaller than our Thirteen City!"

"So what? The City Lord of Star Moon City is a disciple of our Five Elements Sect; are you afraid they'll invade us?"

"They really seem to be attacking!" Number one guard stared blankly at the distant overwhelming human-beast path.

Number two guard turned his head and saw, "Enemy attack!"

"Clang clang clang"

The alarm bell sounded piercingly!

A massive Buddha suddenly descended from the sky, Kai Ming clasped his hands together on the city wall, "Buddha is merciful, this city now belongs to Star Moon!"

"Are you kidding! Where is the City Defense Array?" The number one guard looked terrified.

Kai Ming turned his head, gently smiling, "Look!"

Below the city wall, Bai Wei protected several odd-looking Spiritual Beasts, poking around the City Defense Array, which now seemed as breezy as a leaky barricade.

"What are those things!"

Kai Ming remained silent, the golden Buddha palm pressed heavily, "Master, you've asked quite a lot!"

The instant the Buddha appeared, all Three Flowers Heavenly Immortals within the city noticed, and upon arriving at the city wall, witnessed the scene.

"Wufa Temple's Kai Ming? Aren't you supposed to be in Star Moon City?"

Watching the cultivators climb over the city wall, Zi Zhengxin's face darkened, "Is Star Moon City rebelling? Chen Jiuge, such an Ascended Cultivator from the Lower Realm, is indeed a white-eyed wolf that can't be tamed!"

Kai Ming said indifferently, "The strong reign supreme, while the weak are simply prey—aren't these principles what your aristocratic families love the most?"

"It seems like your family has become that piece of prey now!"

The Buddha emitted endless Buddha Light, and thousands of Buddha hands emerged, dyeing the sky golden, "Divine Skill—Thousand-Handed Buddha Contract!"

Zi Zhengxin's face twisted grimly, "Prey of the strong, who exactly is the prey still remains to be seen."

"Divine Skill—Purple Star Shining Day!"

Purple and golden light collided, directly reducing the heavily invested city wall to ruins, sending large amounts of debris splattering!

No. 13 Pioneer City naturally didn't just have one Three Flowers Heavenly Immortal, but Bai Wei held back the second while the remaining Heavenly Immortals attempting to aid were blocked by Heavenly Immortal Spiritual Beasts, plunging the previously peaceful Thirteen City into the flames of conflict!

Massive Spiritual Beasts stomped through the city, wreaking havoc, toppling numerous structures, consuming many Loose Cultivators as snacks.

Many of these Spiritual Beasts actually lacked Spiritual Wisdom; if they possessed it, sending them out as cannon fodder, Chen Jiuge might feel wrong about it.

Without Spiritual Wisdom, they were more like wild animals, akin to Spirit Food on the dining table, significantly reducing the guilt!

At the City of Exploration teleportation array area, Old You looked at the chaotic city, his face's astonishment yet unabated, "That little guy rebelled? How dare he!"
