Chapter 915: The City Within
Chapter 915: The City Within
September 25th, 2017
Lu HaiKong's signature move, a powerful strike, had proven unexpectedly effective. Despite his grand gesture, it was not without its limitations, and he was well aware of this.
As powerful as his move was, it couldn't break through every defense. Lu HaiKong knew there were ways to counter it, so he had been keeping this knowledge hidden, waiting for the right moment to strike.
After a series of strong attacks, he unleashed his hidden technique, instantly overpowering the enemy. The outcome was favorable, but the process left Lu HaiKong somewhat surprised by its ease.
The smoothness of the victory seemed almost too good to be true. It was as if someone had intentionally set up this moment for his grand entrance. If not for his sudden outburst, the elite warrior guarding the gate would not have been so easily defeated.
Lu HaiKong's instincts kicked in, and he felt something was amiss. Using his inner strength, he focused his energy on his eyes, enhancing his vision with the Heaven's Eye Technique.
Within the city, he saw a vast, intricate web of dark energy covering everything. This web slowly drained the power of those caught within it.
Even someone as strong as Lu HaiKong felt his energy being gradually sapped by this web. Sensing the danger, his face paled.
"Retreat immediately!"
As soon as Lu HaiKong realized the situation, he ordered a swift retreat.
However, his decision to retreat came a bit too late. Most of his elite forces had already entered the city, and it was not easy to withdraw at this point. After all, if they had been allowed to enter, their exit would not be so simple.
As Lu HaiKong commanded the retreat, a dark energy enveloped the soldiers within the city. At the same time, at the city gate, and on the walls, soldiers covered in dark energy appeared.
Those who had been slain by Lu HaiKong's initial attack rose again, transforming into dark energy-covered warriors.
"Indeed, a trap!"
Facing this situation, Lu HaiKong remained calm, his eyes gleaming with determination.
Almost simultaneously with Lu HaiKong's command, the allied forces at the city gate unleashed their powerful auras, pushing towards the gate and beyond.
Zhang Liang had his plans, and Lu HaiKong had his ladders.
After so many battles, Lu HaiKong, usually carefree, became cautious. He knew to leave some tricks up his sleeve, especially since he had anticipated this trap.
To ensure safety, Lu HaiKong not only kept his elite Iron Blood, Black Wind, and Golden armies outside the city but also positioned Wen Chou, Yan Liang, and Zhao Er at the gate for a quick escape if needed.
As soon as trouble arose, these three elite warriors led the charge towards the gate, effortlessly defeating the dark energy-covered soldiers who had risen from the ground. Just as they were about to lead the army out, another twist occurred.
As Zhao Er and his forces reached the gate, preparing to break through, a dark energy film appeared at the gate, blocking their exit.
At the same time, on the city walls and gate, soldiers covered in dark energy emerged.
Those who had been killed by Lu HaiKong's initial attack rose again, now transformed into dark energy-infused warriors.
In this critical moment, Lu HaiKong's elite forces at the gate, led by Wen Chou, Yan Liang, and Zhao Er, unleashed their power, pushing back the dark energy-covered soldiers.
But the situation was far from resolved. The entire city was enveloped in a dark energy web, trapping everyone inside. It was as if the ancient capital itself was determined to keep them there.
