“What a sublime technique. I can't mimic it in its entirety at all.”

With a similar ability to the Hundred-Eyed Purple Dragon, Du Feng was able to quickly mimic the other people's techniques, except for the techniques of Ji Xi and Lu Yu. He found it very difficult to mimic theirs.

The former was understandable. After all, she was a War General and the techniques she cultivated were so much more profound. Thus, they were more difficult to mimic. Yet strangely, the techniques Lu Yu cultivated were even more difficult to mimic than Ji Xi's.

Du Feng could only mimic the Heavenly Saber's Method and part of the Major Circumambulation Breathing Technique.

On the other hand, the human figure fighting with Lu Yu once again changed its face. It turned into a copy of Ji Xi, and the techniques it deployed were also Ji Xi's techniques. Rays of moonlight radiated which then condensed into a flash of light that went slashing towards Lu Yu.

Following that, it performed the act of setting and drawing an arrow on the bow. A big green bow appeared, and the light condensed into a moonlight arrow. It broke through the sound barrier and came shooting in an explosive burst of force.

In Lu Yu's hands, the Dragon Blood Battle Saber and Blood Emperor Battle

Saber both wailed at the same time. As the two sabers intercut, they shattered the moonlight arrow. His two arms holding the sabers were severely jolted by the clash, and they became numb from the impact.

“Surprisingly, this Hundred-Eyed Purple Dragon can even imitate my technique.” Ji Xi, who saw this scene, widened her beautiful eyes. Then, she laughed in spite of herself.

When she was in the illusionary realm, one of the Hundred -Eyed Purple Dragon's purple eyes turned into a doppelgänger and was able to simulate a character that resembled her father completely by peering into her mind. Thus, it was no surprise that it was able to mimic her and her techniques.

As the face of the human figure changed countless times, the techniques it mimicked increased in variety and proficiency. Lu Yu felt as if he was engaged in a bloody battle with thousands of people.

“Fuck! It's so shameless. This fellow even mimicked my technique.”

“Isn't this my Qin family's Qin Sword Technique, the secret technique that is not passed on to outsiders? He is able to mimic it as well.”

Watching that human figure mimicking their own techniques, all the cultivators felt a great deal of uneasiness. They had kept these techniques close to their hearts all this while. If this human figure displayed them without reservation in front of everyone, and someone with ulterior motives analyzed those techniques in the future, it would not bode well for them.

“Mr. Lu (Advisor Lu), please make sure you kill this Hundred-Eyed Purple Dragon!” The crowd pleaded one after another.

Wang Lu also saw that his own technique had been imitated. His face sank, and then, he shouted angrily, “What are you guys still standing there for? The First Military Unit and all the cultivators who came to the rescue of Lunan City, head out now and finish off the Hundred-Eyed Purple Dragon!”

With Wang Lu's order, a swarm of cultivators charged at the human figure. They intended to overwhelm this fellow that struck fear in their hearts with sheer numbers.

However, as the fluctuations in space burst forth and rippled outwards, more human figures appeared. Each human figure was an exact replica of every cultivator on the battlefield. One of them who looked like Wang Lu, stared back at Wang Lu, making him so incensed that he flung away the military baton in his hand angrily, cursing and swearing loudly.

Roar! Hidden in the shadows, the Hundred -Eyed Purple Dragon let out a loud roar at this moment. All the human figures converged and under everyone's stunned gaze, melded together.

With each figure melded, the beast's aura would soar a notch. It finally took the form of a skinny, purple-haired youth with a malicious look in his eyes. It was babbling non-stop, like a wild beast in human form.

However, the aura emanating from that body was truly terrifying. It reached the peak-level of a War General, making everyone present tremble with fear. They felt a sense of oppression that came from the soul.

“Is this fellow trying to take on a human form and sneak into the human world with a brand new identity?” Lu Yu got a big shock when he saw this purple-haired youth.

This purple-haired youth, apart from not being able to speak a human language, was almost indistinguishable from a human teenager, which inevitably made Lu Yu think in that direction.

The purple-haired youth bared his teeth, revealing a cruel expression resembling that of a wild beast. A slit on his forehead opened up, showing a purple eye. As rays of purple light radiated out, massive tentacles shot out behind him, attacking everyone present indiscriminately.

In an instant, blood splattered all over. Body after body fell to the ground. Lu Yu bore the brunt of the attack. He was attacked by many more tentacles which surrounded him on all fronts.

The Dragon Blood Battle Saber and Blood Emperor Battle Saber sliced continuously. As the tentacles were chopped off, new ones grew out immediately that confined Lu Yu completely. Following that, with a fierce swing, it lifted Lu Yu into mid-air.

“Argh!” Lu Yu let out a cry of anguish. He felt his body was being squeezed violently.

Even with the Demonic Armor, even with the Berserk Body and the repairing ability of the Emerald Emperor's Method, it was difficult to resist this immense force.

Furthermore, the Demonic Armor was increasingly devouring his strength, mental power, and health vitality more voraciously, squeezing every inch of flesh and blood dry from his body.

The moonlight radiance burst forth and a moonlight arrow shot out. Despite not having fully recovered, Ji Xi shot an arrow out forcibly at this point.

The arrow hit the hundreds of huge tentacles that closed together in a mass without any effect. Ji Xi said in a low voice, “This Hundred -Eyed Purple Dragon has manifested into a human form that is so powerful.”

Wang Lu also revealed a bitter smile, his face full of despair. Faced with this overpowering suppressive force, the beast was almost declaring that there was no hope to speak of.

Not only would they all die here in battle, Lunan City would also fall completely. The entire western region of Flame Country would be cut off and become a paradise for Fearsome Beasts.

“Song Yu, you protect them and lead them out of Lunan City.” Wang Lu glanced at Ji Xi and Song Yu. Finally, with a resounding voice, he roared, “The rest of you, do your best to stall the Hundred-Eyed Purple Dragon and create opportunities for their evacuation!”

At once, the City Lords of Boulder Rock City and Northern Chill City stepped forward shamelessly and said, “General Wang, we still have many matters to deal with in our Boulder Rock City (Northern Chill City). I implore you to allow me to evacuate at the first opportunity.”

Wang Lu's eyes turned exceedingly icy cold and he said, “If Lunan City falls, your Northern Chill City and Boulder Rock City will also fall too. Whether you two return or not, makes no difference.”

“But…” The City Lords of Northern Chill City and Boulder Rock City panicked. They only came here to put up a show to prove that they were doing their jobs, but they did not think they would die in duty here.

However, when they felt the murderous air emanating from the eyes of all the cultivators in the First Military Unit, they were so scared that they didn't dare to continue. They were afraid that this group of stinking bastards would give them a taste of the physical treatment at the first opportunity.

And they could not simply just leave as they liked because the military zone had the absolute commanding authority in this period. Thus, they could only bite the bullet and said, “General Wang, you are right. We will definitely stay back and live or perish with Lunan City!”

“I'm counting on you!” Wang Lu said to Ji Xi in a grave tone.

The fall of Lunan City was a foregone conclusion. By then, even if all the superior military forces of the Gamma Military Zone got involved, it would not do any good. They would need the capital to send reinforcements as well.

Ji Xi nodded solemnly. Under Song Yu's escort and the other cultivators opening up an escape route, she fled outside..
