Chapter 2792 When it rains, it pours
These were the absolute main force in the attack and defense of Mingsha Forest. Those dozen or so generals alone could hold off several Bega Immortal Demons without a single leak, not to mention General Tiger Wing.
He was the anchor of the team on site; with him there, the Panlong army's morale remained high.
But now, they have all vanished from beneath the city walls!
Pili Tian, known as the God of Space, what despicable means did he use to take away Panlong and other high-level powers in one fell swoop?
For the first time since the start of the war, Wen Daolun was completely at a loss.
Zhong Shengguang's throat was also dry, and he had to cough forcefully before he could speak.
"They're not dead! There's no way Pi Litian could make them simply vanish from the face of the earth." But Zhong Shengguang also understood that his side had fallen into Pi Litian's trap, their main force had been wiped out, the situation was about to reverse, and the battle ahead would be much harder.
Sure enough, Pi Litian's deep voice then echoed across the battlefield: "General Tiger Wing and General Panlong have both been teleported three hundred miles away by me and will not be back for a while. The Bega people, attack swiftly and capture Mingsha Forest!"
Upon hearing this, Zhong Shengguang slammed his fist heavily against the stone wall beside him.
As he expected, the powerful Panlong beings were indeed alive; however, the bad news was that they were currently hundreds of miles away and would certainly not be able to return to protect Mingsha Forest in the short term.
Panlong is facing an imminent crisis.
The Bega army, which had been forced to retreat step by step and had lost all fighting spirit, was greatly encouraged upon hearing the news, and was inspired by Pili Tian's announcement.
General Tiger Wing was invincible on this battlefield, slaying gods and demons alike. His presence was a morale booster for the Panlong Army, but for the Bega Army, he was a veritable jinx, his ferocious power, wielding the might of the newly defeated Hundred Battles Heaven, reaching its zenith for a time.
With so many immortals and demons present, the nearly one million-strong army was still suppressed by the power of one person and could not raise their heads. This was unprecedented in the past six hundred years of Bega's history!
As long as he is on the battlefield, the morale of Bega's army remains low.
In the Battle of Mingsha Forest, Venerable Lingxu gave a strict order to advance quickly and not let the war drag on until dawn! Pili Tian knew very well that the most important thing right now was to boost the confidence and morale of the Bega army, not to kill General Huyi—although the kid looked badly injured, who knew how many tricks he still had up his sleeve!
Previously, Bai Zhantian thought he could kill his opponent with his three-hit axe, but he ended up dying at the hands of his opponent instead.
Pili Tian wasn't afraid to fight, but rather didn't want to waste time. There were other ways to eliminate Hu Yi besides killing him.
Therefore, after arriving at the battlefield, Pi Litian did not fight He Lingchuan to the death. Instead, he set a trap and with a wave of his hand, he packed up He Lingchuan and a group of powerful figures from Panlong City and sent them hundreds of miles away.
Then, on this battlefield of the Singing Sand Forest, the Panlong Army's defenses were left wide open.
He was able to send General Tiger Wing and numerous powerful figures from the Panlong Sect three hundred miles away, entirely thanks to his most secret divine technique—
Shifting stars.
This divine technique can teleport a small number of people away from the Star Array, with a maximum distance of three hundred miles.
In the past two thousand years, he has only used this secret technique twice. Apart from the Holy Venerable Lingxu, none of the other great gods knew that he had such a trump card.
Of course, the technique of shifting stars also has limitations. First, it consumes an enormous amount of energy, which cannot be withstood by anyone other than a true immortal.
This is also why he is going to use a full divine descent this time. And because the teleportation distance is particularly long, even after successfully casting the spell, Pili Tian felt a sense of fatigue.
Secondly, this supernatural power cannot teleport people to places where escape techniques are forbidden, such as behind the walls of Mingsha Forest Village or behind the Bega camp.
But that's alright; he can simply send General Tiger Wing to a wasteland three hundred miles away. Even if they wanted to rush back, it would take them a long time. By then, Bega's army should have already captured Mingsha Forest.
Gao Huaiyuan, from the Bega camp, was overjoyed upon hearing this.
The Bega army was already in the most unfavorable situation, and their morale was low, if not completely demoralized. However, as soon as Pili Tian arrived, he turned the tide of the battle.
Truly worthy of being called a great god!
With a sigh of relief, he turned and ordered, "The timing is perfect! Tell 'Pan Yu' to break through the stockade walls immediately!"
On Chen En Cliff, Zhong Shengguang had no choice but to order his troops to retreat, the battle lines to be adjusted, and the offensive to the defensive, returning to positional warfare. Most of his powerful figures had been wiped out, while the opposing immortals and demons were closing in, with a powerful demon like Pi Li Tian also in command.
The Singing Sand Forest is about to become a battlefield.
Before the Panlong Army had been fully recalled, the ground beneath the Mingsha Forest suddenly began to tremble again.
Wen Daolun's face changed color: "That thing lurking underground has started digging tunnels again!"
That thing has been dormant for a long time. Panlong has been busy dealing with the Heavenly Demon and hasn't been able to spare much energy for it.
Now that the opponent sees that Panlong's ballast is gone, they start rummaging around underground again.
As they spoke, the tremors from underground grew clearer, sometimes a cracking sound of drilling into the soil, sometimes a sharp, grating sound like a blade scraping against glass. Everyone knew that the underground monster had slipped on solid rock. The soldiers behind the stockade gripped their weapons, waiting anxiously. Meanwhile, the situation on the battlefield outside the walls was even more tense; the brutality of the war far exceeded either side's expectations.
Half an hour later, the back of the stockade wall suddenly collapsed, creating a large hole about two zhang (approximately 6.6 meters) wide. The Panlong Army, with countless supernatural powers ready to unleash their attacks, prepared to launch a new offensive regardless of what emerged from the hole. However, nothing emerged from the hole, and the entrance was quickly sealed. The Panlong engineers frantically dug and soon plugged the hole.
No one dared to breathe a sigh of relief, because everyone knew that the trouble was only just beginning.
Sure enough, a quarter of an hour later, new pits appeared. Not just one, but six in total, each with an opening about two zhang in diameter. You have to understand that the space behind the stockade wall is not large and the terrain is narrow. With these six pits, there is not much space above where people can stand.
The monster underground was called Panyu, a giant beast created by fusing the characteristics of a powerful demon with those of a pangolin. It had six arms that could dig holes, cut through gold and jade with ease, and could even pierce through the hardest rocks.
Then, the Bega soldiers jumped out of the cave and fought with the Panlong warriors who were guarding nearby.
It's important to understand that Bega's original tactics were far more complex: the monsters had dug tunnels, and after Bega's soldiers emerged from these tunnels, they would need the cooperation of the goddess Fenghe. This celestial demon would use spatial manipulation to project the golden-armored bronze gods directly from the outer battlefield into the fortified walls. These massive figures could shield the Bega army inside the tunnels from most attacks, giving them ample time to break out.
But the goddess Feng He died prematurely, so this cover shot could not be launched.
But it doesn't matter, the current Panlong isn't as difficult to defeat as before. Both Gao Huaiyuan and Tianmo think it's worth it to trade lives for progress.
