This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered-Chapter 699 - 597: Plan Within a Plan_2

But these had no effect on Gongsun Bai'an, who was still looking up at the tiny orb with a gaze full of infatuation.
"This is the power of the Tenth Realm? How marvelous..."
Gongsun Bai'an murmured softly to himself, his handsome features seeming somewhat morbid in the light of the Blood Moon phantom behind him.
Even though they no longer had a Cultivator capable of contending with Chen Hua after Gu Chengan's death, the Abyss had already bestowed upon them a way to cope, which was the very bead in his hand now.
Just by crushing this bead, they would be able to temporarily receive the blessing of the power of the Heavenly Dao on the territory of the Abyss, their strength far surpassing that of a typical Ninth Realm Great Perfection, not falling behind even when facing Chen Hua!
This bead was possessed by each of the five Abyss Envoys and Tian Anyu, all as trump cards to be used against Chen Hua.
"Don't be lazy now, come on out, Mystical Mechanism is moving!"
A voice that sounded somewhat discordant, yet contained endless icy chill, suddenly rang out.
"Got it!"
Gongsun Bai'an grudgingly put away the bead and scratched his head, Cang Dong was really annoying, he needed to teach him a lesson when he had the time.
Besides him, the other three stationed at this border were Cang Dong, Qiu Feng, and Zuo Yongning. As for Xia Kun and Tian Anyu, they were defending the homeland of the Abyss and at the same time protecting the Abyss Will from disturbance.
Gongsun Bai'an really had no interest in managing the troops, so he simply snuck off to sleep in the palace by himself, leaving the rest of the matters to the three of them.
Below the bloody clouds, three figures stood shoulder to shoulder above the defensive lines of the Abyss Army, staring solemnly into the distance at the black tide galloping towards the horizon!
"Is Mystical Mechanism really going all out this time?"
Cang Dong, still twirling two ice spheres in his hands, only took one look and roughly figured out that this time the Mystical Mechanism's forces had deployed at least seventy percent, which was too much for a probing attack.
"If they didn't bring more, they probably wouldn't even qualify to make us take them seriously."
Qiu Feng, dressed in a green robe with a scholarly demeanor, stood in the middle with his hands behind his back and spoke indifferently.
Shrouded in a black robe, Zuo Yongning's silhouette and face remained unclear as he continued to stay silent.
"That's true, it's also time to let them taste what it's like to be on the receiving end of an offensive that turns one's stomach."
Cang Dong agreed with a nod, looking down at even the Abyss Cultivators who, despite the approach of the Mystical Mechanism's army, still revealed mess and chaos everywhere.
Military discipline didn't exist among the Abyss Army, chaos was both their nature and their weapon. Although an army like Xuanzhou's that was strictly disciplined could exert considerable strength on the battlefield, extreme chaos could achieve a similar effect.
Thus, they never restrained the Cultivators, allowing these people to indulge in their own nature!
The nature of wanting to kill, the nature of wanting to survive!
As for military regulations, there was only one: slaughter!
The more one killed, the better; even if one couldn't return alive, they were to fight until the very last moment!
"Which of those annoying guys showed up?"
Cang Dong tossed the two ice spheres from his palm aside, casually sculpting an apple out of ice that emitted white vapor, biting into it with a satisfying crunch.
"According to the intelligence, Chen Hua, Old Daoist Fang, Zhou Yuzhi, Senluo Wanxiang, and the cat from the Demon Clan have come."
Qiu Feng squinted his eyes and said with a smile.
"Good grief, if Xia Kun didn't come then the Immortal Emperor of Xuanzhou won't show up either."
Cang Dong finished the hard apple in two or three bites with a sullen look, speaking indistinctly.
In the past, the Immortal Emperor of the Immortal Dynasty and Xia Kun were the most passionate combination on the field, exchanging blows and spilling blood, exuding a man's romance.
"What about the others? Not coming, staying home to multiply?"
Cang Dong casually inquired, considering it a probing attack anyway, it was unlikely their group of defending Cultivators would get to fight.
"Defending Mystical Mechanism..."
Qiu Feng frowned slightly, his usually tranquil expression finally changing.
"What's wrong?"
Cang Dong glanced at the old silver coin beside him; the guy's thoughts were as convoluted as they could be.
"I was planning to let those two characters cause some trouble quietly in Mystical Mechanism when they made their probing attack, but with just one person defending it would have been fine. However, under the mutual defense of the Immortal Emperor, Xu Yi, and that old baldy, the plan has to be abandoned."
Qiu Feng weighed the risks and ultimately shook his head in resignation, choosing to give up the plan.
"Did they find out?"
Cang Dong stood up, looking somewhat surprised. After all, the movements on the other side clearly indicated they were aware of potential problems that might arise from behind, guarding against something.
"No... there shouldn't be any issues. If we had truly been exposed, they would have certainly crushed all threats with a thunderous force, and would not allow two characters to exist."
Qiu Feng shook his head, feeling that this possibility was slim, but no matter how he thought about it, he could never have guessed that Xuanzhou's Immortal Emperor and the others were actually guarding against players causing trouble.
"What about the other side? They shouldn't know yet that their plan has already been revealed to us, right?"
Cang Dong seemed to remember something, suddenly looking forward to it.
If those annoying guys knew that their proud disciples had their futures directly ruined by them, wouldn't their Dao hearts be severely shaken?
"The Abyss has sent people over, and they can directly eliminate them the moment they appear, without giving them any chance to recover."
Zuo Yongning, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up with a hoarse voice.
"That's good, it's best to bring back their heads for me. I'll hang them at the very front of the defensive line. I just love to see their furious faces when they wish to fight, but can't kill us."
Cang Dong licked his lips with a gleeful and excited look in his eyes.
"Forget it, don't think about those meaningless things for now, they are coming."
Qiu Feng's words interrupted Cang Dong's excited fantasy, directing his attention back to the Mystical Mechanism's large force opposite them.
Meanwhile, Gongsun Bai'an's figure finally arrived belatedly, appearing above the battlefield.
The other three only glanced at Gongsun Bai'an before remaining silent, quietly watching the figures revealing themselves at some distance.
Opposite the four of them, in the sky above the neatly arranged Mystical Mechanism army, five distinct figures emerged from the Void, looking at them with a mix of smile and non-smile.
"It looks like they are ready and waiting for us to arrive!"
Chen Hua rubbed his chin thoughtfully, looking at their serene opponent.
"It seems they have yet to realize our true intentions." Fang Zhi casually formed several hand seals, the corners of his mouth curling up.
"It doesn't matter for us; the real question is whether the other side can catch a big fish."
The Grand Saint of Nine Spirits, seemingly indifferent, licked his paws.
The eternally unchanged figure in a grey robe, the Sect Master Wan Wan of the Senluo Wanxiang Sect, pinched his nose and stayed far away, not just because of Fang Zhi, the odious one in front, but also because the Grand Saint of Nine Spirits made him uncomfortable, itching all over when he got too close.
"That little guy Liang Yi is really capable, coming up with methods that can kill three birds with one stone!"
Zhou Yuzhi reminisced about the scene where Liang Yi talked confidently in front of them and couldn't help but exclaim sincerely.
"You're not seeing who his master is!"
When it came to this topic, Chen Hua was far from sleepy, instantly livening up and turning to Zhou Yuzhi with a grin.
Fang Zhi and Zhou Yuzhi both rolled their eyes in unison, too lazy to bother with this idiot.
"The time is almost up; let's begin."
Chen Hua estimated the time and, feeling that Liang Yi and the others should have begun their action, turned to Jiang Fufeng with instructions.
"Yes!"
Jiang Fufeng nodded vigorously and raised his right hand to signal to the cultivators not far away.
Buzz————
As the hand signal dropped, a soaring horn sounded loudly, vibrating in everyone's hearts, and a senseless surge of bloodlust rose from the depths.
Countless arrays and Spirit Light lit up, layer upon layer covering all the cultivators. If players were here, they would find that the BUFF list on them might need a long slide to reach the bottom.
As the horn's sound gradually ceased, the silent dark clouds finally moved.
The army was silent like the clouds, but once set in motion, it seemed as if imbued with countless thunders. Many cultivators clenched their teeth, puffed out their chests, their eyes burning with fury, vowing to tear apart all the Abyss Cultivators before them!
Naturally, the Abyss side was not to be outdone.
On Qiu Feng's silent cue, the defensive line's gates opened, and the long-restrained Abyss Cultivators howled as they rushed out.
Excitement! Restlessness! Bloodlust!
Without any order! Without any discipline! Without any hesitation!
The Abyss Cultivators harbored only utter chaos and madness in their hearts, like beasts eyeing their prey, they charged at the dark mass before them with bloodshot eyes.
