Chapter 475: Advancing into the Red Mist Region (4K)_2
Hence, he arranged the direct lineage division generals of both Lord Pan Shi and Lord of Tianze City to be in his own group.
Frontier Lords like Dragon Sky were among the younger, more ambitious, and fearless leaders within the battlefield lords.
Even someone like the Rain Dust Lord, a 'old woman' over thirty, strictly speaking, is still a young lord.
Among the battlefield, there were also elders with great strength.
For instance, Lake Mountain Dean from Tianze City, who would join the assault group under Sword Lord Liushi's command.
This time, he actually made two sets of preparations: if the assault group could directly breakthrough the blockade of Dragon Sleep Valley, it would be more than wonderful. However, the likelihood of this happening was extremely slim.
...
Inside the valley.
Only two people, Uta and Isloa, were with Mu Yuan.
He said to Isloa, "Let's begin."
The valley was thick with trees that blocked out all daylight, making it quite dim.
Clearly, there was no sunlight and the clear blue sky was not visible, yet Rain Dust, Green Mountain, and several other lords were still somewhat astounded.
It was as if they had seen the starry sky.
The stars had fallen.
Mysterious and dazzling, the light of stars touched down on the nearby earth, and in the blink of an eye, interwove to form a profound and extraordinary Starry Sky Gate.
"Creeeak—"
The Star Gate opened, and within the resplendent light one could faintly make out a vastly different scene on the other side.
"Could it be that the other side is the Ten Directions Island Domain?"
Lord Rain Dust guessed there would be a means of transport.
After all, only by transportation could they reach the distant foreign lands within a short one or two hours.
But even with transportation...
The mere sight of this pink-haired hero from Tianyuan City conjuring up the gate with a wave of her hand was still astonishing and enviable.
How convenient and important transportation was, was something every lord was acutely aware of.
"It seems this hero is the very one Tianyuan recruited at the Festival Grounds, known as the Starry Sky Maiden, Isloa?"
"At that time, Tianyuan gave up several well-known heroes to recruit the then-unknown Starry Sky Maiden, leaving many puzzled. Now it seems, indeed, Tianyuan's vision is incredibly keen; he probably saw through the heroes at the Festival Grounds long ago, and that's why he recruited this Starry Sky Maiden without hesitation."
Transportation overrides 99.99% of other advantages.
Perhaps back then, the Starry Sky Maiden's transportation ability was weak, but first, she needed to have this ability in order to improve it as she advanced.
For veterans like Lord Rain Dust, who had a broad perspective and an abundant array of means, sometimes, a soldier with a special ability and rare traits might be more precious and harder to find than a common Epic Life.
The Starry Sky Maiden was undoubtedly one of those rare beings.
Mu Yuan said, "You don't need to guess anymore, it is indeed a transportation ability, such transport has many limitations, let's hurry."
On the other side of the Starry Sky Gate, Tianyuan generals like Lu Liu, Duo Lai, and Sario were already fully prepared.
People began to step through the gate one after another.
A few from Green Mountain Lord's group.
A few from Lord Rain Dust's group.
The number of people passing through the Starry Sky Gate was nearly a few dozen, which was somewhat pressuring for Isloa.
The powerful individuals passing through the gate occasionally glanced to the side, fearful that the next moment, this Tianyuan powerhouse would be unable to maintain it, and the Starry Sky Gate would crack open abruptly.
Fortunately, no accident occurred, and they arrived at the Ten Directions Island Domain in the blink of an eye.
Upon arrival, they saw a gigantic Frost Giant Dragon, its body exuding a cold, deadly stillness. Its eyes, larger than the front of a truck, glared down at the people below.
This posture, this body, this incomparable dragon's might...
Lord Tianyuan was truly skilled in commanding Dragon Kind.
Mu Yuan planned to bring along strong individuals like Lu Liu, Duo Lai, Uta, Xi Liu, Jun, and Sario.
Dead Bone and Sophia had actually already gone deep into the Shattered Isles.
"The time is about right; we should set off now."
Mu Yuan looked at everyone.
He would lead from the front.
After all, with lords like Green Mountain and Rain Dust personally present, and an 'ordinary powerhouse' like Dragon Sky showing no fear, how could he stay at the rear?
He already possessed a certain amount of strength.
Mu Yuan took out a cleansing potion and drank it in one gulp.
There were not many powerhouses in Shattered Island battlefield, but backed by Tai Xuan, their preparedness in terms of war materials was extremely abundant.
This time, not only was everyone equipped with a set of potions, they were also not lacking all kinds of life-saving items.
Looking towards the far distance, at the monster tide still surging out, he reached out...
The vast Power of Heaven and Earth converged towards him.
Like cleaving through a giant wave, he slashed through the Monster Tide.
He took large strides forward, stepping over the scattered bones without hesitation, without pause, and moving towards that dim, cramped passage with the ominous Red Mist at its end.
Lord Rain Dust, Green Mountain, and the other lords took a deep breath and strode forward, following the figure not far ahead.
...
Cold, dim.
The air was filled with a nauseating stench.
It was the filth, the Red Mist.
It swept in from all directions, penetrating domains, protective energies, equipment, and flesh, seeping into the body, into the marrow, into the soul.
It would slowly corrupt the soul.
This was erosion.
The body's instincts were constantly reminding to leave such an area as quickly as possible.
"I've entered the Red Mist Land again."
"It's not completely eroded yet, but it's close."
Before me, the Red Mist was thick and pervasive.
The ground was parched, and the crusty, bloodstain-like brownish-red cracks spread like spider webs with no end in sight.
"More severe than I imagined."
The Green Mountain Lord said, "If the majority of the Shattered Isles are like this, then it might only take half a month or a month before the entire domain becomes Red-Mistified and utterly turned into a map of filth."
By then, they would be powerless to reverse it.
He squatted down, caressing the ground.
Faintly visible were shoots breaking through the completely dried soil, with strands of greenish light spreading towards the distance.
The Rain Dust Lord also made a move, with raindrops coalescing in the space between heaven and earth.
She was reading information from the raindrops.
They were reconnoitering.
Not all the powerhouses present had superior scouting methods, but at their level, they each had at least some scouting skills. Otherwise, they would be completely blind in unfamiliar domains, easily falling prey to ambushes.
"Eleven o'clock direction, six legendary monsters are about to emerge, and we need to slay them at the fastest speed."
Mu Yuan spoke.
Green Mountain and Rain Dust Lords focused their attention in the eleven o'clock direction and indeed made a discovery.
The Red Mist swirled, barely concealing the emergence of enormous figures.
Suddenly,
The hands of the Rain Dust Lord, with her Water Sky Doctrine, came together, and the world was shrouded in endless water mist.
The water mist enveloped all around, intermingling with the Red Mist. Read new chapters at empire
One after another, the fighters took action, and soon the sounds of tearing became frequent within the mist, before quickly returning to silence.
At that moment,
The Green Mountain Lord looked towards a certain place, "There seems to be someone else."
Mu Yuan said, "They're one of ours, my Division General."
The black-robed Sophia's figure slowly revealed itself.
Was there really another Tianyuan Division General present?
"Walk this way, about six hundred kilometers from here, there's an area where the Red Mist is relatively sparse."
Sophia's androgynous voice sounded.
More exploration was needed to establish a stronghold.
But undoubtedly, the most suitable places were those where the Red Mist was sparser.
The stronghold team moved swiftly into action.
Mu Yuan rode on the back of Sario.
Green Mountain, Rain Dust, each of these Lords also had their own 'mounts' for commanders.
All of them were experienced, and even though they sped along, they rarely attracted the attention of monsters... or rather, as long as they killed all the monsters that did notice them, it was the same as avoiding any attention at all.
"As expected, the armies from Dragon Sleep Valley are on the other end of the island; there aren't many enemies in these areas."
A Frontier Lord had just spoken.
Not too far away, a hundred-meter-tall black mountain suddenly came to life.
It was breathless, almost like an inanimate object.
Yet its form suggested that of a living being.
The black mountain trembled and split, resembling a gaping maw as thousands of meters long, massive tentacles shot out from within.
Beside the mountain, a Frontier Lord mounted on a Silver Pegasus found themselves in immediate peril.
After all, just a moment ago, not even Green Mountain Lord, Emerald Giant Dragon, or the Water Sky Doctrine, these powerhouses of the Soul Realm, noticed anything amiss.
They maintained their momentum and flew tens of thousands of meters away.
After all, coming from different domains, their cooperation was far from tacit.
In that moment, there was a breeze.
A deep sigh echoed in the wind, like the lament of the God of Wind.
The thousands of meters long, incredibly tenacious, strange tentacles were cut off at their bases, and the sections that fell to the ground soon lost their vitality.
The wind continued to surge.
In the wind, a majestic large bird appeared.
Jun, the great bird, had arrived at the battlefield.
