My military branches can Evolve Infinitely-Chapter 607 - 370: Holding Tianyuan City in Hand, Invincible in this World (6K!)
Mu Yuan held a pure white feather in his hand, the enormous Great Force emanating from it.
The power of the Epic Treasure, the Pure White Feather, had no connection to the level or realm of the user; even with Mu Yuan wielding and using it, he could still unleash the full power of the feather.
Pure White Protection enveloped Tianyuan City, instantly stabilizing the city's trembling defenses.
Still, Pure White Protection could not save Tianyuan City. Under the onslaught of numerous war machines and legendary bombardments, the vast wings that wrapped around the city were also gradually dimming.
Time was running out.
This was indeed only a slow death, if there were no other killer moves.
"Take action? Not yet," he said.
He looked towards Dead Bone.
Dead Bone had recently returned to the western city's defenses, and its gaze fell not only on West City's defensive area.
Its bony hand rested on the hilt of a sword, casting an inquiring look.
Dead Bone had already experienced several major and minor battles in the wilderness but still retained a 'still capable' condition.
Dead Bone still could command the Undead Legion and unleash the 'Emperor's One Sword.'
However...
The Emperor's One Sword possessed conceptual killing power but could only target a single foe.
If Dead Bone took action, even if it were able to confront or even slay the distant blood-colored Giant Dragon, it still couldn't defend the expansive Tianyuan City.
The city truly was their weak point.
At this moment, Dead Bone hadn't truly taken action; it only commanded the Bone Dragons to soar, extinguishing fires here and there and exerting half of the Power of Seal from Wraith Sacred Mountain.
Mu Yuan was waiting.
Waiting for the enemy to come closer.
An early display of force by Dead Bone would only make the enemy more cautious.
Outside Tianyuan City, there were more than twenty legendary creatures. It seemed that a few of them were far stronger than the Goblin Prince of old.
However, not all these beings of Legendary Realm had taken action.
The blood-colored Giant Dragon still stood tall, tens of kilometers away in the sky above Tianyuan City, coldly overlooking, surveying from a height.
A daunting Snake Man Legend sat atop a gigantic statue of a snake man, 120 meters high, moving forward slowly. It was still eleven kilometers away from the city.
This distance, however, was still outside the territorial boundary of Tianyuan Territory.
Other legendary creatures were also staying miles away, continuously gathering the Power of Heaven and Earth for long-range bombardments.
Compared to those disposable minion creatures, these legends seemed well-versed in the art of... survival.
Otherwise, if more than twenty Legends had surged forward all at once, even if Tianyuan City had several of its own Legendary Realm defenders, the Thunder Magnetic Coil Tower, the Giant Buddha of the Tree Realm, several legions, Large-scale Magic, and Pure White Feather... it would have long been fallen and its people dead.
However, for Mu Yuan...
What he wanted was to slay even more legendary realm creatures. This had always been his initial strategic goal.
Merely defending the city, repelling the enemy? Far from enough.
As long as these Legendary Realm creatures existed, Tianyuan City could never be considered safe, always in danger, and exploratory teams venturing out could always face the risk of falling.
To kill a wide range and large number of Legendary Realm enemies, they could only rely on the 'Nine-headed Roaring Thunder Flame Dragon,' this super Large-scale Magic.
But, this spell alone was far from enough.
In the last battle at Wolf Head Mountain, if the enemy hadn't fallen out of the shattered space, the Nine-headed Roaring Thunder Flame Dragon couldn't have killed all of the Legendary Realm enemies at once; being able to slay two or three would already be an impressive achievement.
Near Tianyuan City, Milena and another Legendary Elf stood together.
They gazed around.
The world was vast, the tides continuous.
From their vantage point, they couldn't even discern how many war machines, how many monstrous legends there were—only that there were many, so many.
"Perhaps Tianyuan Territory still has some foundational killer moves left from the battle at Wolf Head Mountain, those rumored to be capable of burning the sky and tearing apart the earth, creating Thunder Flame Canyon," said the Legendary Elf, the Windchaser Ranger.
"However, it seems the enemy is also on guard; they are all very dispersed, and such a super killer move would likely at most eliminate one or two of them."
"The outcome is already decided; we've done everything we could."
They could not possibly share life and death with Tianyuan City.
This time they too had sacrificed many Elites and lost a Legendary Realm being, paying a heavy toll.
Milena nodded, then shook her head slightly, "This battle, we fight not for humanity, but for ourselves."
If anything, it was Tianyuan City that, pressured, had to stand at the forefront, had to commit all its forces, all its foundational strength.
She had just seen many black-armored Skeletons and phantasmal ghosts fighting on the frontline in Tianyuan City and dying in their posts.
Some of them, in her opinion, even had legendary stature, and their fall here was far too pitiful.
But this was war.
Inside and outside Tianyuan City, the number of defense buildings that had collapsed or were destroyed was countless.
The thriving Tree Realm, the majestic Giant Buddha, mountains of bones stretching beyond the city walls, the protective enchantments covering the city, the Pure White Feather that blocked out the sky...
On and on.
All these astonishing foundational strengths, Tianyuan City could not afford to hold back.
Tianyuan City's most powerful beings were apparently ambushed by formidable enemies in the field and were unable to return. The enemies were even more numerous than those seen in front of them.
In comparison, their Natural Garden at most sent out most of its main forces and rarely stepped out of the defense line to charge into the fray, so their losses were much smaller.
"Let's hold on a little longer, at least until the city falls," she said.
Then, as the Windchaser Ranger said, they indeed could not share life and death with Tianyuan City.
They still had their own Natural Garden to protect.
