Chapter 1683 - Unable To Block
Chapter 1683: Unable To Block
“Head to the deepest point of the mine. The path there is narrow and we can block the entrance!”
Zhu Tong ordered in a low voice with a blackened face. Even at the Rank 8 Martial Honorable Realm, he felt a huge sense of danger approaching them.
Thankfully, there was a strong protective array around the mine. Although it couldn’t prevent enemies from entering the mine, it could allow them to avoid a heavy attack.
The crowd moved quickly as they dashed into the depths of the mine.
Su Mo scanned the surroundings and he found that among the 97 people from the Red Dragon Camp that he led, only 5 were missing.
The Red Dragon Camp troops were high-ranked martial artists and they had dashed into the mine instantly.
A scheme!
A massive scheme!
Su Mo boiled with rage. The Sorcerer Tribesmen actually went to such lengths to deal with him.
Repeated assassination attempts from the Sorcerer Tribe were simply a case of bullying!
Before Su Mo could even settle the grudge of the Grand Priest killing his avatar, Su Mo was once again thrown into a dangerous position.
“If I don’t die this time, I will definitely make it hard for the Sorcerer Tribe to exist!” Su Mo cursed in his heart.
He had thought of waiting for his cultivation rank to increase to the point where he became a Martial Sage before he settled his grudge with the Sorcerer Tribe.
But is seemed that he was wrong!
The Sorcerer Tribe knew his potential and they definitely wouldn’t leave him room to grow and become stronger.
Furthermore, he had made a big mistake by staying in the Imperial Ancestor Court Faction for so long.
The Ancientspirit Galaxy was large, and as long as he did not stay in one place for long, the Sorcerer Tribesmen would not be able to find him.
However, it was too late to regret now. He had to find a way to escape his predicament.
“Leader, what should we do?”
Ge Li, Heng Fei and the other squad leaders were pale with fright. They had no way to resist against a Rank 9 Martial Honorable.
Lucky for them, Zhu Tong was around. Otherwise they might not have been able to defend themselves against the Holy Blood Force Sword from earlier
“As long as we work together, we will definitely be able to escape!” Su Mo uttered in a deep voice. He could only encourage the troops under such circumstances.
Shoosh shoosh shoosh!
In a few breaths, the crowd entered a narrow path where they could go no further.
This path was around 50 feet wide and it was deep. It walls were also made of black-colored Dark Iron.
“We stand our ground here. As long as our enemies enter, we will attack all at once!” Zhu Tong yelled out.
Everyone turned around and stared intently at the path in front of them. This was their bet.
If they didn’t enter the mine, they might have been able to escape. Yet, there was no way back in the mine and once they fell to their enemies, everyone in the mine would die.
Due to the array around the mine, it could not be destroyed by a large scale attack. However, they were also not able to escape through the mine.
Nonetheless, the crowd wasn’t dispirited. The previous attack had caused such a huge scene and the Black Mountain Fort must be aware of what had happened. A strong expert would probably be on his way.
As long as they could guard the area for a while, they would live.
Shoosh shoosh shoosh!
A few moments later, Wu Han, Wu Fengtian, Elder Xue Cheng and the numerous skeleton warriors shot through the mine path and entered in the sights of the crowd.
“Attack!”
Zhu Tong yelled out loud and immediately attacked.
At the same time, the surviving 2000 people unleashed attacks all at once.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!
Numerous attacks flew out at once like a gush of water, instantly enveloping their enemies.
However, due to the small size of the mine, before the mass of attacks even hit Wu Han, they clashed against each other and crumbled apart.
Boom boom boom!
Vicious explosions exploded through the mine like a grenade, resulting in a huge earthquake that shook the ground and the mine. Numerous stones and a lot of Dark Iron was destroyed.
A blinding array-based light covered the mine as the protective array around the mine prevented the large-scale attack from destroying it.
Terrifying waves of force followed the path and rolled forward, leaving behind a scene of destruction.
Wu Han and the other two did not dare to block against such a wave of attacks and they immediately retreated backward to another path in the mine.
At the same time, the numerous skeleton warriors were sucked back into the Honorable Soul Banner.
Similarly, Su Mo and the others defended themselves against the attacks and, due to their large numbers, they were not harmed by their allies’ attacks.
A few moments later, the shock wave of attacks followed through the path and rushed out of the Dark Iron Mine.
Everyone stared at the end of the path only to see their enemies appearing again.
Su Mo also glared at Wu Han and Wu Fengtian. Wu Han was expressionless but Wu Fengtian was staring back at him as a sinister smile stretched across his stone-hard face.
The troops did not rush to attack as they waited for the orders of the leader, Zhu Tong, who was standing at the front of the crowd.
Naturally, the highest cultivation rank Zhu Tong became the pillar in everyone’s hearts.
Zhu Tong was very nervous and he stared carefully at the 3 attackers. As long as none of them did anything strange, he would order the troops to attack.
Although the protective array around the mine was strong, the huge wave of attacks previously had widened the path they were in by two times.
As such, they could not rush their attacks, otherwise the path would be destroyed completely and they would lose their strategic barrier.
“Sorcerer Tribesmen, you guys have actually helped the Blood Pupil Clan!”
Zhu Tong’s eyes were red with anger as they stared at Wu Han and Wu Fengtian. Zhu Tong knew that the two were Sorcerer Tribesmen and he was also aware that the Souls of the Dead Skill was a common forbidden Sorcerer Tribe skill.
“This is a deathbed struggle and all of you must die!”
Wu Han’s face was icy-cold but he didn’t ask Zhu Tong to hand over Su Mo. That was because that discussion would require time. Time that he could use to directly kill Su Mo in the limited duration they would be in the mine for.
With that, Honored Wu Han raised the Honorable Soul Banner in his hand and waved it continuously. Black rays of light streamed out of the banner as fierce winds howled.
One by one, skeleton warriors flew out of the Honorable Soul Banner unstoppably.
Roar roar roar!!
Roaring sounds echoed through the mine as the large mass of skeleton warriors amassed into groups and dashed towards the troops.
“Attack!” Zhu Tong immediately yelled out loud again as he ordered the troops to attack.
Su Mo did not hold anything back either as he struck down with the stone sword continuously as streaks of Sword Qi appeared.
Boom boom boom!
A multitude of attacks rushed out towards the group of skeleton warriors.
Boom boom boom!
Yet, these skeleton warriors were not weak and they crazily brandished the large swords in their hands to counter attack.
Shockwaves and attacks in the pathway rolled out and resulted in a scene of chaos. Many skeleton warriors were destroyed by the troops’ attacks as their bones scattered out in all directions.
However, even more skeleton warriors destroyed the troops’ attacks for them as they dashed towards the crowd and struck out at them.
There seemed to be an endless supply of skeleton warriors that gushed out of the Honorable Soul Banner as their numbers reached 1000.
Everyone was utterly shocked and their hearts sunk in hopelessness. That’s it! There was no way to block them!
Su Mo’s face fell. He could only try to escape with all his might.
