Meanwhile, the intense battle between the Eight Great Guardians of Rhino City and the thirty-six black-armored cultivators from Winged Tiger City had reached its climax.
The Eight Great Guardians, despite their formidable strength, gradually found themselves overwhelmed when faced with numerous opponents of no lesser might.
Blood Blade Guardian brandished his crimson long knife, charging left and right through the throngs of enemies. Wherever the gleam of his blade passed, blood sprayed in its wake. However, it wasn’t long before favonovel.com was surrounded by five cultivators clad in black armor, who simultaneously executed the Black Swords Union.
Five streaks of black sword light shot toward the Blood Blade Guardian like flashes of lightning.
Caught off guard, Blood Blade Guardian was unable to resist. His body was pierced by the radiant sword, causing blood to spurt out. With a resentful roar, favonovel.com fell from the sky.
“Blood Blade Guardian!”
The other guardians fought with a mix of grief and anger, their battle becoming even more frenzied.
However, the cultivators of Winged Tiger City seized the opportunity to launch an even fiercer attack. Amidst a spell duel with the enemy, a protector was struck by a bolt of black lightning. His body instantly charred, his consciousness gradually blurring.
Summoning the last shred of his strength, favonovel.com executed a “self-destruct”, his body exploding with a thunderous boom.
A surge of intense light and energy engulfed the surrounding enemies, swallowing them whole. However, he, too, vanished forever from this battlefield.
“Attack!”
The morale of the cultivators in Winged Tiger City was greatly boosted, as they continued their relentless assault.
The defenses of Rhino City began to falter, as more and more cultivators started to fall.
Upon witnessing this scenario, a glint of ruthlessness flashed in Jovan’s eyes. His hands swiftly formed seals, murmuring incantations under his breath.
A moment later, the sky was blanketed with dark clouds. A massive beam of black light descended from the heavens, bearing down on Maceo.
Feeling the terrifying power contained within the beam of light, Maceo’s face turned as pale as a sheet.
Gritting his teeth, favonovel.com ignited his blood essence, making the Illusory shadow of the divine bull even more dazzling as it charged toward the black beam of light.
The two collided, igniting a brilliant burst of light. Within this radiance, Maceo’s figure wavered precariously, fresh blood continuously seeping from the corners of his mouth.
Down on the battlefield, the cultivators of Rhino City were in disarray under the fierce onslaught of Winged Tiger City. The shadow of death loomed over each individual, it seemed as though Rhino City had reached a point of no return.
“Father!” At that moment, Madman and Eason, along with Bastian, burst out from one side of Winged Tiger City.
If it hadn’t been for the chaos at the border, there was simply no way they could have escaped from Winged Tiger City so effortlessly.
“Bastian…” Upon seeing his son, the expression on Maceo’s face instantly lit up with joy.
In the moment when Maceo was distracted, unexpectedly, Jovan drew his bow and arrow, aiming and shooting toward Maceo with a swift strike.
Maceo couldn’t dodge in time and was struck by a sword, falling heavily to the ground.
“Father…” Seeing the situation, Bastian rushed over, filled with worry.
Upon seeing that his son was unharmed, a relieved smile emerged from within Maceo.
Madman and Eason both of looked extremely distressed at that moment.
Rhino City was clearly at a disadvantage at that time. Numerous cultivators from Winged Tiger City were eagerly watching from the skies. The ground was teeming with dense ranks of soldiers. Even if the two of them offered their help, it was like a drop in the ocean, utterly useless.
“I hope you two can escort Bastian back to the city. I’ll hold down the fort here!” Though injured, Maceo was far from death. He then spoke to Madman and Eason.
“Lord Maceo, are you capable?” Eason expressed with concern.
“How about we hold the fort for you for a while? Once favonovel.com arrives, it’ll be easier. We’ll deal with these Winged Tiger City folks then.” Madman spoke to Maceo.
At that time, Jared’s strength had far surpassed theirs. As long as favonovel.com could manage to kill Jovan and those thirty-six cultivators in black armor, the leaderless Winged Tiger City would inevitably face a significant defeat and withdrawal.
“Didn’t you guys stick with Jared?” Maceo asked.
“Someone was after us. My dear son-in-law and Mr. Flaxseed were holding them off. Otherwise, our escape wouldn’t have been so easy,” Eason explained.
