Chapter 1330: Overwhelming Dominance
December 27, 2017
In the world of the Three Kingdoms, within Iron Blood City!
Before the unstoppable black flood, akin to a bursting mountain torrent, could reach the Trigram Shadow, a Trigram Diagram merged with it, causing the initially unstable shadow to solidify instantly.
The solidification of the Trigram Shadow once again thwarted the impact of the black flood.
Having failed in three consecutive attacks, Wang Jian's brows furrowed slightly, but he quickly relaxed.
"Two very young yet powerful spiritual forces, one like a fledgling phoenix's cry, and the other like a reclining dragon's rumble. It seems these two youngsters are the legendary Dragon and Phoenix, who are said to possess the power to rule the world."
When mentioning the Dragon and Phoenix, Wang Jian's face remained fearless, with only a hint of mockery.
"Although I don't know how powerful the Dragon and Phoenix will become when they truly mature, these two youngsters before me are far too green to challenge me. Let's see what this guy, who dares to claim such a resounding title, is capable of!"
As he spoke, Wang Jian, who had been lacking enthusiasm since his arrival in this world, finally began to take things seriously.
After all, his current opponent was the Dragon and Phoenix, young and inexperienced, but still worthy of his attention.
At the same time, on the other side of the battlefield, facing Wang Jian's massive army, a handsome figure strolled leisurely within the formation of eight thousand soldiers. Eventually, he reached the center of the formation.
As soon as the young man approached, Cheng Jin, who was guarding the side of the powerfully built youth, immediately sprang into action, attempting to intercept the newcomer.
"General Cheng, let him through, and be polite. This guy is my friend. Whether we can repel the invasion of the Foreign Demonic Army depends entirely on him!" The powerfully built youth, whose real name was Pang Tong, teased the handsome youth before him.
That Zhuge Kongming, despite his young age, was incredibly adept at cultivating his inner energy.
Even in this situation, Zhuge maintained his composure and politely greeted Cheng Jin before striding towards Pang Tong.
"Come down!" His tone carried a hint of subtle emotion.
"Sure!" Pang Tong nonchalantly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and happily descended from the core of the formation, grinning as he escorted Zhuge to the center.
In truth, while Pang Tong knew the Trigram Formation, he was not particularly skilled in it. From the beginning, he had chosen this formation to defend against the enemy with the intention of forcing Zhuge out.
Indeed, Pang Tong had succeeded. Zhuge was lured out, and together, they joined this extremely willful battle.
From a certain perspective, Zhuge had been outmaneuvered by Pang Tong. However, at this moment, neither Zhuge nor Pang Tong seemed to care much about it.
Both were incredibly intelligent individuals, seeing through many things that others might not. Moreover, it was hard to tell who had outsmarted whom in this situation.
On the other side, as soon as Zhuge reached the core of the formation, he immediately began inspecting it without saying a word.
It must be said that Zhuge was far more proficient in this aspect than Pang Tong.
Upon inspection, Zhuge quickly identified several major flaws in Pang Tong's formation. With Pang Tong's assistance, these flaws were swiftly rectified!
In just a few minutes, their Trigram Formation was rearranged!
The revamped formation was much more solid and possessed greater spiritual awareness than before. Additionally, with Zhuge's Trigram Formation Chart serving as the formation's eye, its power had increased at least fivefold compared to its previous state!
However, as the Trigram Formation underwent these changes, Wang Jian showed no signs of surprise. Instead, he wore an expression of appreciation. In reality, if he hadn't given them time, it would have been nearly impossible for Zhuge and his companions to complete the rearrangement.
"Now this is more like it! This is the first glimpse of the Dragon and Phoenix's potential. Since you're ready, it's my turn to make my move!"
As Wang Jian spoke, the Abyssal Demon Army under his command surged forward once again, their military aura coalescing into an awe-inspiring force.
If the previous army was like a surging black flood, this new army was akin to an erupting mountain torrent!
The water remained water, and the flood continued to flow, but at this very moment, whether in terms of scale, momentum, or power, the two waves were not on the same level at all!
This was Wang Jian's first true offensive after his serious preparation, and with this attack, the Trigram Formation's shadow protecting the eight thousand soldiers above them dimmed.
Indeed, as a renowned general, Wang Jian's decision to allow Zhuge and Pang Tong to rearrange the Trigram Formation was not arrogance, but the confidence of a legendary commander.
He was certain of his abilities; in his eyes, these two unripe Dragon and Phoenix were insignificant, incapable of causing any significant ripples.
With absolute confidence, Wang Jian launched his assault when Zhuge and Pang Tong were at their peak. The black flood surged once more, wave after wave of attacks crashing upon the Trigram Formation.
Despite the Trigram Formation's reinforcement and its fivefold increase in strength compared to before, it still appeared fragile against the might of the Abyssal Demon Army.
After just five waves of attacks, the Trigram Formation was on the verge of shattering, and Zhuge and Pang Tong, who were maintaining the formation, sustained heavy injuries amidst Wang Jian's relentless assaults.
Within the Trigram Formation, the two exceptionally intelligent and spirited youths felt a profound sense of defeat for the first time.
Even though they had known from the start that their opponent was powerful, they never imagined it would be to the point where they were left helpless.
Amidst their shared sense of defeat, Pang Tong and Zhuge exchanged a glance.
Logically, these two young men should have had much to say, but after a moment of eye contact, neither spoke a word.
After a brief silence, Pang Tong suddenly looked up at Cheng Jin and exclaimed, "General Cheng, this is the best we can do. Please join us in our final stand!"
Finishing his plea, Pang Tong turned back to observe the valiant warriors fiercely resisting the onslaught. He murmured, "Even though we may not win the battle, we have not forsaken these admirable soldiers!"
"No! I've changed my mind. Forgive me, but I cannot join you in your final stand!"
Before Pang Tong's murmur could fade, Cheng Jin's resolute refusal echoed from his side.
As Pang Tong and Zhuge were taken aback, Cheng Jin continued, "We can die, but you must not. The Lord needs you. Escort these two young masters to safety!"
