Xing Bai roared out as his body grew hundreds of meters tall. His jaws widened to an unbelievable extent as he swallowed a battalion whole.
"[The Lily Blooms]!" Lianna splayed out her hands, and a gorgeous patch of water lilies came to life by her feet. The lilies were large but intricate, and covered in a crystalline sheen that made them resemble delicate pieces of art.
"[Kingdom of Water]!" At the same time, she summoned countless merwarriors from deep within the ocean.
Under attack by the mermen, the sura forces were like a small boat about to capsize amidst an incoming storm.
Sun Mengmeng and Lianna stood back to back, smiling at each other. Lianna was like a water lily, Sun Mengmeng a red rose. The two of them had once been competitors in the Void Cup, but they were now comrades-in-arms.
Hong Yu sent countless red feathers whirling into the air, and Pu Kui turned day to night. The dozen or so generals from the empire of stars were barely able to fight back.
Who would have expected that they who had once been competitors would now work hand in hand with each other?
Zhang Lie himself watched the confrontation from afar.
Renhuang's forces had gained such an advantage that it was only a matter of time before the empire of stars' forces were wiped out.
With the members of Team Zenith and the young leaders of the four prime races around, even the dozen or so generals wouldn't be able to turn the tide of battle. Renhuang's forces slaughtered sura by the dozen. Many of them were already dying from the Yeluo's genetic poison; Renhuang's forces simply sped that process up.
The fighters of Renhuang laughed. How good it felt to finally get back at their enemies, the sura!
The confrontation between the sura and Renhuang's forces was completely one-sided, an outcome that not even the sura fighters, sura generals, or Renhuang's reinforcements could have predicted.
Shouldn't it have been easy for the army of a sura empire to take down forces from a mere human city? Wasn't the outcome of the fight supposed to have been obvious? When the sura saw that their opponents consisted of only a hundred thousand forces, they did feel this way—until the birds flew overhead and poured gallons of poison over their forces.
The sura generals had never expected that Renhuang would be able to deal them such a serious blow with a mere trick.
There were a dozen fighters in Renhuang on the level of a sura king, and six of them could take on even the strongest of sura kings. Although they knew that Renhuang had to boast such forces if they were able to take down the seven-kingdom coalition, they hadn't expected to face quite so many talented hunters.
Renhuang's combat strength was on the level of a sura empire itself!
Most importantly, however, was the poison that they had somehow developed to specifically target the sura. The generals had never heard of the like.
Renhuang's reinforcements had heard of this Yeluo poison, but only when they saw its effects for themselves did they realize just how frightening it was. No wonder three thousand of Renhuang's forces could take down the seven-kingdom coalition!
With this sort of poison in hand, Renhuang could take down even an invasion force ten times larger. The reinforcements came to Renhuang prepared to die, only to find that the deadly battles they were prepared for were laughably trivial.
All they had to do was wait while the crag eagles controlled a flock of birds to poison the sura, then to charge forward and kill the sura that hadn't yet died… It was as straightforward as killing poultry. They had never had such an easy fight against the sura, and the hunters were taken aback by their straightforward victory.
Quite a few had had to defend their cities from a sura invasion in the past. Those had always been hard-fought victories, and most of the veterans present had lost a friend or loved one to such invasions.
This was the largest battle against the sura they had been part of, the one at which they were at the most numerical disadvantage... and also the simplest they had ever fought.
None of them would ever forget this battle—as expected of Renhuang, which had produced miracle after miracle!
Even the young leaders of the four prime races couldn't have predicted such an easy victory for the humans. Zhang Lie really was a talented herbalist, able to come up with such miraculous creations as these limit-breaking potions and this poison... contemporary romance
What the four prime races didn't know was that this poison was created by the Yeluo clan rather than Zhang Lie himself. The Yeluo had devised it as a strengthening potion for themselves, but it turned out to have exceptional effect against the sura.
The four young leaders believed that only someone like Zhang Lie, who had come up with the limit-breaking potions, could develop such a ridiculously overpowered poison. They swore that they would never make Zhang Lie their enemy. If they made him mad enough to develop a race-specific poison against them, they couldn't imagine the consequences that would result.
As they stared at the decomposing bodies of the sura before them, the four young leaders shuddered. How could this world be so unfair? Not only did Zhang Lie boast extreme personal strength, he even had ridiculous talent at herbalism!
The sura commander's eyes widened as he saw his forces collapse against nothing more but a human city.
The sura had defeated countless nearby kingdoms over the years, and one tiny human city was nothing compared to what they had faced in the past. When he saw the majority of his forces dead and the rest struggling, the commander could barely believe that he wasn't dreaming.
He took a deep breath and forced himself to come to his senses. Now wasn't the time to think.
He soared into the air, releasing such an aura of strength that the members of Team Zenith and the four young leaders stilled for a moment. All he could do now was make use of his strength to quell the enemy.
"Halt, all of you!" His shout rang across the entire battlefield, declaring his strength and imposing presence. He was almost at the level of a sura monarch himself, almost...
