Chapter 597 Overwhelming Momentum!
“Great Mage Mo!” the warriors behind shouted as they reacted.
Several warriors immediately rushed down, trying to catch the falling Mo Xiu.
During his fall, Mo Xiu’s eyes were wide open, looking at the Immortal King above, his eyes filled with disbelief.
The power of the Immortal King’s attack wasn’t particularly strong, yet it easily penetrated the Anti-Spirit Mirror!
This indicated that the Immortal King’s attack didn’t use conventional energy!
This was something Mo Xiu never anticipated!
A cold energy appeared in his chest, spreading throughout his body, freezing his nerves and making it difficult to move.
Mo Xiu knew clearly that once this energy spread throughout his body, it would be his death, with no chance of recovery!
“Greater Healing Spell!”
While falling, Mo Xiu gritted his teeth, using his remaining strength to grip his staff and activate the spell.
“Zing!”
The gem at the top of the staff, containing endless magical power, emitted a dazzling white light.
The light fell upon Mo Xiu’s body, and a warm current flowed into his pierced chest, dispelling the cold.
Mo Xiu’s limbs gradually regained sensation.
At this moment, several warriors reached Mo Xiu’s position and extended their hands to support him.
“Great Mage Mo, are you alright?” one warrior asked with a grave expression.
Mo Xiu’s face was pale as he looked down at the wound in his chest.
This strike had missed his heart, only piercing the middle of his chest without damaging internal organs, and was not fatal.
After using the Greater Healing Spell, the healing energy had completely driven out the cold energy from his body.
At the same time, the wound in his chest was rapidly healing.
Mo Xiu’s condition was still relatively good.
But Mo Xiu’s heart sank to the bottom.
The strength of this Immortal King far exceeded his expectations.
The fact that the strike had just missed his heart, Mo Xiu didn’t consider it luck.
Obviously, the Immortal King had done it deliberately.
It didn’t want to kill Mo Xiu with one strike, otherwise, Mo Xiu would have been dead.
“Great Mage Mo, the number of creatures gathered below… is too many. We only brought less than two hundred warriors this time. To clear out so many creatures, I’m afraid…” another warrior said in a deep voice.
“Hasn’t the Upper Martial Arts Association coordinated with the Four Groups yet?” Mo Xiu turned to look at one of the warriors, asking with furrowed brows.
“…Not yet. Great Mage Mo, you should be clear about the situation with the Four Groups… the only person who can unite the Four Groups is Lord Huaixu, but currently Lord Huaixu is in seclusion. The leaders of the Four Groups are acting independently, all using various excuses to shirk this support mission,” the warrior replied.
“What time is it now!? Do they understand the severity of the situation!?” Mo Xiu couldn’t help but rage.
But as soon as he said this, his heart skipped a beat.
There hadn’t been many reports about what had happened in Xiang City recently.
Even the Upper Martial Arts Association, which controlled the entire Nine Provinces Nation, had responded very slowly and didn’t take it seriously. So the current attitude of the Four Groups was actually normal.
But the performance of the Upper Martial Arts Association was very unreasonable no matter how one thought about it.
The rise of alien races harming humans was considered a major event in the past two hundred years!
The entire Xiang City area had suffered heavy casualties, with extremely adverse effects!
Why didn’t the Upper Martial Arts Association take it seriously at all?
Was there some problem with this?
Thinking about this, Mo Xiu’s heart pounded.
But he didn’t dwell on it further.
This matter could be investigated later.
Currently, the issue to be resolved was these Immortal race creatures in front of him!
Due to the Upper Martial Arts Association’s lack of attention, Mo Xiu had only brought less than two hundred warriors this time, most of whom were at the Master level, with a few at the Martial Lord level.
The Order Organization didn’t handle such matters, and other great mages had many things to deal with.
The only great mage who could attend to Xiang City was Mo Xiu alone.
Mo Xiu didn’t have many subordinates at his disposal, only eight students who were currently maintaining the teleportation spell.
“You humans number in the billions, most of whom are as weak as ants. Any one of our Immortal race creatures can easily crush you humans,” the Immortal King above spoke at this moment. “This is why you humans are lowly, and we of the Immortal race are noble.”
“Humans are not worthy to rule the surface, the surface should be ruled by us, the stronger ones!”
“Roar!”
Thousands of Immortal race creatures on the Awe Platform roared in unison.
This sound seemed capable of piercing the sky, making the entire Chao Mountain peak tremble!
A sea of killing intent enveloped the surrounding area.
The warriors who had teleported here all had pale faces.
They had originally thought that the so-called Immortal race they were to fight was just a slightly larger group than the monster beasts they often cleared before.
But now, arriving at the Awe Platform and seeing the vast sea of dark creatures below, their confidence and courage diminished by half.
Most of these creatures below were huge in size and looked terrifying!
How were they supposed to fight against this?
Most warriors felt a sense of fear rising in their hearts.
Mo Xiu turned to look at the group of warriors behind him, and seeing their expressions, he knew that today’s support battle had already failed.
Being afraid before the battle even began was inappropriate.
But at this moment, seeing such a large group of alien creatures below, any normal person, regardless of their cultivation level, would feel fear.
“Great Mage Mo, should we leave here first, report back to the Upper Martial Arts Association, gather more forces, and then come back…” a warrior beside Mo Xiu asked quietly.
Mo Xiu took a deep breath, looking at the Immortal King above.
The Immortal King’s head was a skull, with no visible expression on its face.
But Mo Xiu knew that at this moment, the Immortal King must be full of mockery and disdain.
And in the current situation, if they really fought, there was no chance of winning.
Mo Xiu agreed with the suggestion of the warrior beside him.
Now they could only leave this place first, to avoid unnecessary losses.
After returning to the Upper Martial Arts Association, Mo Xiu would personally talk with the high-level officials, clarifying the true situation.
Then, gathering the elite forces of the Upper Martial Arts Association and the strong warriors of the Four Groups to come to Xiang City together, their chances of victory would be much higher!
Mo Xiu looked up at the light circle behind, the teleportation spell had not yet dissipated.
“Listen to my command, all retreat!”
Mo Xiu, with furrowed brows, transmitted his voice using magical energy.
Hearing Mo Xiu’s words, the warriors were delighted and rushed toward the light circle.
At this moment, they only wanted to escape from this place, to escape from danger!
As for what would happen later, that could be discussed later!
Seeing this scene, the people in the audience seats below once again fell into despair.
When they first saw these warriors appear, they were overjoyed, thinking they had seen a glimmer of hope.
The Upper Martial Arts Association had finally sent people to support them!
But now, before the battle had even begun, these warriors were fleeing!
Had Xiang City… been abandoned?
Many people had the same thought.
In mid-air, the faster warriors had already rushed to the light circle.
As long as they passed through the light circle, they could return to Yan City, temporarily escaping from this place occupied by alien races!
“Boom!”
But just as several warriors were about to enter the light circle, the circle exploded violently!
The powerful blast wave sent the closest group of warriors flying, with screams rising all around!
At the position where the light circle had been, only a mass of black energy remained!
The teleportation spell had been completely destroyed!
“Did you think I would let you leave?” the Immortal King said with a cold laugh in its voice. “You now have only two paths to take, one is to submit to me… the second is to play with my offspring.”
As soon as these words fell, another deafening roar sounded from the Awe Platform in response.
At this moment, the group of warriors from the Upper Martial Arts Association were all frightened pale.
“Even if we die, we will never submit to alien races like you!” several warriors beside Mo Xiu shouted with bloodshot eyes.
“Boom!”
Before the words had fallen, a loud explosion came from below.
A black figure shot up from the ground, rushing toward the group of warriors in the air.
“Bang!”
It was seen charging into the group of warriors, its fists dancing, sharp nails slicing across one neck after another.
Its strength was extreme, its speed incredibly fast, and the group of warriors had no power to resist!
“Ah…”
Miserable wails rose.
Many warriors were knocked flying, falling toward the audience seats below.
