Seizing Destiny From Heavens Hands-Chapter 482: Three Demon Armies Strike Together, Outposts Fall One After Another
Chapter 482 - 482: Three Demon Armies Strike Together, Outposts Fall One After Another
Chapter 482: Three Demon Armies Strike Together, Outposts Fall One After Another
The Blood God Fortress had the most diverse array of monster clans. While lion monsters and bear monsters were the most numerous, there were also plenty of tiger monsters, wolf monsters, and ape monsters among them.
This was unlike the Howling Moon Fortress and Gold Mountain Fortress, where nearly all monster clans were either wolf or ape monsters.
Because of that, at first, none of the demons paid any attention to the two seemingly unremarkable monsters within the Blood God Fortress troops.
This sudden, overwhelming attack caught An Mie completely off guard.
He never would've imagined that humans and monsters—two races long at odds—could actually unite in a moment like this.
Lang Mang and Yuan Tai had even suppressed their auras and disguised themselves as ordinary wolf and ape monsters!
Gritting his teeth, An Mie had no choice but to unleash what little authority power he had left.
Savage Force!
His body suddenly expanded to three times its original size.
His power surged out like condensed, liquid force.
Eight tentacles, muscled and knotted like giant limbs, braced in front of him.
Boom!
A thunderous crash echoed out.
Even with the power of authority activated—
An Mie was still blasted into the distance.
He shattered three distant hills before finally coming to a stop.
Zhang Longxiang smiled. "That's the Gui Xu Concealment Technique—a top-grade Heaven-rank cultivation method."
"After I exchanged for it, I passed it on to Generals Lang Mang and Yuan Tai."
An Wu was startled upon hearing this.
An Chen, though silent, was filled with complicated emotions.
As expected of Zhang Longxiang.
He had spent a mountain of battle merits to exchange for a top-tier Heaven-rank cultivation art, and then directly gave it away to other Demon Suppression Generals.
Such character. Such resolve...
Truly unforgivable.
Lang Mang and Yuan Tai laughed loudly. "Thanks, General Zhang!"
Shi Tian smirked with pride. "Enough talk—let's move!"
"The sooner we slay these three Great Demons, the sooner we can break through to the fourth level."
Tang Jinglong growled, "The Demon Suppression Guards at the fourth-level outposts can't last much longer. We've got five against three—let's end this quickly."
"Even if we can't kill them, we must at least force them to clear a path."
The other Demon Suppression Generals nodded in agreement.
In the next moment, all five generals charged forward.
Five great manifestations roared out together, shaking heaven and earth as they blasted away the purple-black demonic energy!
...
Fourth Level of the Demon Suppression Sea
In the pitch-black depths—
A tide of silhouettes began to appear on the distant horizon.
It was a horde of Lesser Demons, surging forward like waves.
Among them were numerous True Demons, serving as the minds and commanders of the demon army.
The Lesser Demons growled restlessly, awaiting orders.
The True Demons murmured among themselves, also watching and waiting.
Their eyes occasionally turned to the skies.
There, floating above, were the three heirs of Great Demons, surveying the landscape below.
At the front stood An Zhenjie, the most valued son of An Chen.
Behind him were An Zhen'e, heir of An Mie—
And An Zhenshuang, heir of An Wu.
Although An Wu was a newly risen Great Demon, the authority power he gained elevated his offspring's cultivation rapidly overnight.
That was why An Zhenshuang could now stand alongside renowned heirs like An Zhenjie and An Zhen'e.
An Zhenjie narrowed his eyes and looked toward the distant landscape.
He could see two faintly glowing outposts standing firm on the ground.
They were Outpost 42 and Outpost 43 of the Blood God Fortress.
The two deepest-established outposts built by the three allied races on the fourth level.
"The Blood God Fortress truly lives up to its reputation as the strongest among the ten Demon Suppression Fortresses."
"Other fortresses can barely manage two outposts, and they've built three."
An Zhenjie gave a faint smile.
An Zhen'e let out a sinister laugh. "So what? What can a few more outposts do against tens of millions of us?"
An Zhenshuang chuckled darkly. "The demons that started surrounding those outposts were just the appetizer."
"They'll never expect that the three of us would ally—and that we even dragged in tens of millions of Lesser Demons from the fifth and sixth levels."
An Zhen'e licked his lips. "Enough waiting—let's begin. I can't wait to feast on their blood!"
An Zhenjie burst into loud laughter. "Good!"
He circulated his demonic aura, his voice thundering through the skies like rolling thunder.
"All demon forces—split into three fronts!"
"The central front will be led by me personally, heading straight for Blood God Outposts 42 and 43."
"Eastern front—An Zhen'e, you'll lead the attack on Azure Dragon Outposts 41 and 42."
"Western front—An Zhenshuang, press toward Tianjiang Outpost 42 and Gold Mountain Outpost 42."
"You two, let's enjoy a proper slaughter!"
An Zhen'e and An Zhenshuang both grinned broadly. "Kill!"
Under the leadership of the three Great Demon heirs—An Zhenjie, An Zhen'e, and An Zhenshuang—the three demon forces launched a ferocious assault on the sixteen outposts stationed across the fourth level.
From the very start of the battle, the three allied races found themselves at a disadvantage.
This was the fourth level of the Demon Suppression Sea—demonic territory where demonic energy reigned.
In such an environment, the Demon Suppression Guards were naturally suppressed, weaker than demons of the same realm.
Moreover, to ensure the success of this large-scale campaign and wipe out all outposts in one sweep, the demons had drawn in a massive number of Lesser Demons from the fifth and sixth levels to serve as cannon fodder.
Their purpose was to exhaust the outpost formations and drain the Demon Suppression Guards' spiritual power and blood energy.
Faced with this dark, overwhelming tide of demons, every single Demon Suppression Guard felt a rising sense of despair.
If not for the natural terrain around the outposts and the defense formations within them, these Demon Suppression Guards likely wouldn't last a single day on their own.
...
Xuanwu Outpost 41
This was the earliest established outpost, built against a rocky cliff and facing the corridor between the third and fourth levels.
It was effectively the rear line among the sixteen outposts.
Only a few scattered demons had attacked here.
Though an atmosphere of tension and unease lingered, there had been no incidents of panic or collapse.
"Commander Shen, Commander Zhong has requested your presence in the main hall."
A cautious voice came from outside Shen Mo's door.
Creak.
Shen Mo pushed the door open. Standing there was a petite female Demon Suppression Guard with a round face.
"Did Commander Zhong say what it's about?" he asked.
The guard replied in a low voice, "It seems to concern Blood God Outposts 42 and 43."
"Commander Wang and Deputy Commander Feng are already there. You're the last one."
Shen Mo finally nodded.
As a commander, he normally focused solely on cultivation and never meddled in administrative matters.
Zhong Baisheng knew his disposition, and rarely troubled him with routine affairs.
For him to be summoned so urgently this time—something important must have happened.
Moments later, Shen Mo arrived at the outpost's main hall.
Zhong Baisheng sat at the central seat, while Wang Xing'an and Feng Cang paced anxiously.
"What's going on?" Shen Mo walked in with long strides and asked directly.
Upon seeing him, Zhong Baisheng let out a heavy sigh.
In a grave tone, he said, "Blood God Outposts 42 and 43 have already fallen."
Wang Xing'an snorted. "It was only a matter of time. They were greedy for the rare treasures in that area and built their outposts far too deep."
"If the demons launched an attack, they'd be the first to be hit."
Feng Cang added in a low voice, "Commander Zhong even personally contacted the deputy commanders of those two outposts recently, offering to dispatch Demon Suppression Guards to assist in defense."
"But they arrogantly refused."
"They can't blame anyone but themselves."
Zhong Baisheng waved his hand. "Let's not dwell on that. We made the offer in good faith—they are the strongest fortress, after all. They had their pride."
Shen Mo raised an eyebrow as he listened.
He now roughly understood the situation.
Before the demons even struck, Zhong Baisheng had already sensed something was wrong and had proactively offered reinforcements.
But the commanders of Blood God Outposts 42 and 43 had refused.
Now those two outposts had fallen—and it was no one else's fault.
