Chapter 822: Chapter 807: War Masters Retreat, Blood Clan Attacks!

At this moment, the entire battlefield was already in complete chaos. Utilizing war formations, divine beast illusions tore open the defenses of the Blood Clan battleships in the void, and already, five of the Blood Clan’s void warships had crashed down to the earth.

Although the Gu Yuan Clan’s void battleships had not yet fallen, three of the lower-tier heavenly battleships were already wobbling, as if they could plummet to the ground at any moment. As for the other battleships, thanks to the incorporation of exotic beast bones that fortified the war bodies, their ability to withstand hits had increased significantly. Despite sustaining bombardment by numerous blood-colored energies, they still managed to maintain an aggressively strong attack.

"Qingling, after my Gu Yuan Clan’s warriors retreat, use the Elemental Stone Cannons to fire a barrage and cover our warriors’ retreat!"

Seeing the Blood Clan relentlessly pursuing the retreating human race warriors and knowing that with each breath, hundreds of warriors were being overwhelmed by the Blood Clan’s assault, Xiao Chen instructed Qingling.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

In an instant, atop the Bronze Ancient City, Elemental Stone Cannons thundered, sending fireballs streaking tens of miles away, exploding just one mile behind the retreating warriors.

Each fireball that descended was accompanied by thunderous explosions, sending fire and lights scattering across the sky. A fiery screen of flames separated the Blood Clan warriors, shielding the retreating warriors.

Similarly, within the Gu Yuan Clan’s second line of defense, the War Soldiers were arrayed, prepared with huge shields several tens of feet in size. They thrust them deeply into the ground, and in an instant, a massive iron wall materialized before their eyes.

Behind the shields, Human Race Warriors drew their War Bows, shielded by the iron wall, arrows locked onto the approaching Blood Clan Soldiers.

Suddenly, arrows flew like rain, shooting out with cold light, piercing into the bodies of the Blood Clan soldiers.

Thousands of fireballs fell and exploded in succession; with a flame force strong enough to melt stone and burn mountains, a fiery heavenly curtain rose, cutting the Blood Clan soldiers, who were chasing after the fleeing warriors of the Gu Yuan Clan, into two parts.

A smaller group, no more than tens of thousands, was on the side closer to the Bronze Ancient City, while the vast majority were cut off outside, including the Blood-Robed guards of the Blood Faint Noble Family.

Once the majority of the Human Race Warriors had retreated, the cannon fire from the Bronze Ancient City stretched further, each fireball falling into the ranks of the Blood Clan warriors and exploding violently, claiming the lives of dozens, if not scores, of Blood Clan soldiers with every burst.

"Brave Blood Clan Warriors, your bloodline hails from the Desolate Wilds’ dark Blood Age; the lowly human races’ Blood Food has been defeated by our mighty Blood Clan Warriors. Now with one concerted push, invade the Human Ancient City and annihilate them!"

"Annihilate them! Annihilate them!"

The Blood Clan warriors started to charge through the cannon fire, not deterred in the least by the fierce rain of arrows that met them head-on.

"We’ve breached the human race’s defenses!"

Above the Void Floating Island, the elders of the Blood Faint Noble Family, seeing the Gu Yuan Clan’s warriors in retreat, suddenly exclaimed with shock.

"Haha, they’re finally collapsing, the human race’s most elite soldiers have been defeated, what’s left to resist our Blood Clan’s blades!"

"Charge in! Charge in!"

"Once we cross this distance, the Elemental Stone Cannons of the Human Ancient City will be useless!"

Above the Floating Island, the Blood Clan elders’ eyes were filled with boundless joy, and even Hun Shixin couldn’t hide their elation. With the elite warriors of the Gu Yuan Clan defeated, what did Xiao Chen have left to resist the onslaught of their Blood Faint Noble Family?

"Family head, time is not on our side, let’s take advantage of our warriors defeating the human soldiers, and with one concerted effort, break through the Human Ancient City!"

"Moreover, the human race’s battle formations can’t gather as quickly as they did at the beginning, and it seems their battle formations are already weakened. Now is the perfect time to attack the human race’s Gu Yuan Clan!"

"With all our Blood Faint Noble Family’s fighting power bearing down, no matter what, they’ll struggle to cope!"

"Exactly, the Human Battle Formation Masters are now down to only eight square formations, they’re also reaching their limit. The human race fancied devouring our Blood Clan warriors, but now if our Blood Faint Noble Family goes all out, they’ll collapse!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Another Void Battleship, engulfed in raging flames, plummeted to the earth and exploded with a resounding boom, once again causing the excited expressions of Hun Shixin and his followers to turn ugly.

At this moment, only three of the Blood Faint Noble Family’s Void Battleships remained, and the Gu Yuan Tribe’s Void Warships also had three that had crashed.

"Family head, let’s pull back the Void Battleships," one called out. "As long as our Blood Clan Warriors breach the Human Ancient City, even if the Gu Yuan Clan’s Battle Array Masters recover their strength, they will become useless!"

"We can’t retreat. If the Void Battleships fall back, the Gu Yuan Clan’s Void Warships will certainly free up their hands to bomb our warriors. It’s no longer a stalemate like it was at the start of the battle—the Human Race Warriors are already collapsing."

"The Void Battleships must hold off the Gu Yuan Clan’s warships to buy time for the soldiers below to attack the Human Ancient City!"

"As long as we breach the Human Ancient City, even if all the battleships burn, it will be worth it!"

Bronze Ancient City.

At this moment, all the Battle Array Masters of the Gu Yuan Tribe had retreated into the city. Although they did not personally engage in close combat with the foreign race, every time they summoned the Divine Beast Illusion, it required their utmost effort. Despite the support of the tribe’s elixirs, they were utterly exhausted.

With the tribe’s Battle Array Masters retreating back to the ancient city, correspondingly, the Gu Yuan Clan’s warriors also began to orderly retreat towards the rear.

And now, within the towering Arrow Towers of the Bronze Ancient City, the twang of beast-hide strings being stretched taut sounded incessantly, as arrows dark as ink shot out, aimed at the incoming Blood Clan Warriors.

"Warriors of the Blood Clan, the despicable humans have faltered in their retreat, frightened by the might of our great Blood Clan warriors. Charge into the ancient city, annihilate them all!"

At this moment, the Blood Clan Warriors were but ten miles from the Gu Yuan Tribe’s ancient city. Despite enduring successive bloody battles, the oncoming horde of Blood Race Soldiers still numbered over six hundred thousand—a dense, wave-like mass that surged over and over again like colossal sea waves.

The Elemental Stone Cannons of the Gu Yuan Tribe kept roaring furiously, erupting firelight continuously into the thronging crowds, but the Blood Clan’s warriors were too numerous, and to avoid the bombardment of the Elemental Stone Cannons, they had already spread out.

"Chieftain, our War Masters have retreated back to the city, we can begin now!"

Shortly, the Grand Elder arrived in a hurry, though his expression was grim due to the staggering losses incurred. To lure out all the elite warriors of the Blood Clan, the cost had indeed been substantial.

The Blood Clan Warriors had broken through the humans’ defense line, pushing the battle formation to the foot of the Gu Yuan Tribe’s Bronze Ancient City, and the elders of the Blood Faint Noble Family naturally came to the front of the ancient city.

Furthermore, even the Blood Faint Noble Family, led by Hun Shixin, had come forward, levitating in mid-air, staring down at Xiao Chen atop the ancient city.

At this moment, above the Bronze Ancient City, every War Soldier stood ready, the bows in their hands emitting a chilly gleam, targeting the Blood Clan Warriors surging towards the city below.

"Xiao Chen, is this your strategy? To draw out our Blood Clan’s warriors and annihilate them all, why bother with such an elaborate ruse?"

Besides the rumbling clash of the Void Warships above in the Sky Vault, the entire Heavenly River Space had fallen somewhat silent.

"However, to consider my Blood Clan as your prey, you are overestimating yourself!"

Separated by the expanse of ten miles, Xiao Chen and Hun Shixin locked gazes across the void, with Xiao Chen showing not the slightest concern for Hun Shixin’s words.

"Listen, my warriors of the Blood Clan, the first one to break into the Human Ancient City will be awarded by the head of our family with a chance to bathe in the Holy Pool and imbue with King Blood to enhance their bloodline quality and ascend to the rank of elder!"

Kill! Kill! Kill!

Hun Shixin’s words immediately incited a thunderous howl from the many Blood Race Soldiers below, who could hardly wait to break into the Human City.

"My clan has always had a voracious appetite," Xiao Chen responded coldly. "Devouring tens of thousands of Blood Clan rabble is remarkably simple."
