Chapter 225: 225. Activate the Formation

The Hound’s Gate was the eleventh gate out of twelve and faced the northeast. It was only slightly smaller than the main eastern gate but it was no less impressive. The walls around the Hound’s Gate were made of black granite that contained strands of spiritual energy. At fifteen stories, it was too tall for any beast to leap over. The top of the wall was so wide that five horse carriages could ride side by side.

The gatehouse was almost a castle in itself. It was twice as thick as the wall and there were three layers of hardened metal gates inscribed with powerful protective runes. Even if all of the gates broke, only a small number of beasts could come through at a time and would run directly into the army of defenders behind it.

Hound’s Gate Division included a total of fifty thousand cultivators and soldiers. There were a thousand Spirit Initiate Realm cultivators and ten thousand Mind Focusing Realm cultivators. The rest comprised of soldiers, young and old, at the Body Refinement Realm. Everyone stood on top of the walls with their armor and weapons.

He Xingping arrived at the gate and took command of the gatehouse. The twelve subordinate elders were quickly assigned to their posts. Orders were relayed down to every last soldier. Battle flags of gold and red were raised to flutter in the wind, signifying a defense that would hold until the last soldier.

The vantage point of the gatehouse swept over kilometers of farmland that eventually transformed into a forest. The farmers and other citizens who lived outside of the city were still rushing through the gate to seek protection.

There were no sightings of beasts so far so it was still fine to keep the gates open. None of the gates have been attacked yet. The beasts weren’t that dumb, especially in a battle between immortals. Neither side wanted to needlessly throw away their armies since an immortal killing mortals was as simple as treading on ants.

Many of the soldiers and cultivators therefore had their eyes trained upward to the sky. They were hoping to catch a sight of their lords and the battle between immortals that would soon ensue.

Chen Wentian was also taking part in the defense of the city, not as the elder he originally disguised as, but as a common soldier. Using the elder disguise, he ambushed a soldier that was heading towards one of the outer gates. He was now dressed and disguised as that soldier and stood on top of the Tiger Fang Gate which faced the southeast. He chose the soldier specifically because the man was part of the guard unit for one of the elite youngsters of the sect.

He Xuanwu stood merely a few meters away, separated by several rows of soldiers. The man was thirty-one years old and already at the top of the Spirit Initiate Realm. His talent was tremendous and he being groomed to be a future leader and potentially an immortal. He was wavering between ranks twenty and fifteen in the Monster Fighting Competition. This surprise beast attack was the perfect opportunity to gather points so he volunteered to join the front-lines.

Many of his peers had the same idea and each gate on the eastern side of the city had several competitors. Each talent was assigned an elite guard unit to protect them just in case things went awry. They were there to gain points, not to throw their lives needlessly away.

This situation served Chen Wentian perfectly. The people he wanted to kill were all lined up in front of him. He only needed to wait and he did not need to wait for long.

It was unbeknownst to the mortals in the city below but the immortals in the sky had already begun the war. The three beast kings had arrived and were facing off against the two human kings and six Spirit Lords.

“Insect queen! It’s been a hundred years since you dared to attack Beast God Sanctum directly. Did you forget how badly you lost last time?” He Zicheng said, his voice traveling across the distance between them.

“Meatbag, you dare call this queen an insect!” Queen Sundew screeched.

The martial monkey let out a laugh, “No need to get angry. All I see a little cat and an overgrown pigeon, but no snake. Oh… where is your elder brother? I hope nothing bad happened to him, that would be a shame!”

The human side’s faces became grim and they did not respond. Regardless of whatever schemes and protective arrays, it was difficult to overcome the difference in absolute strength with one less Spirit King.

“Three beast kings of the wilderness all rushed here so quickly… I assume you want something. You knew our brother died tragically a year ago but you did not bother to attack until now.” Qu Shen spoke up, “So, what do you want?”

“Humans are too smart for their own good…” King Huo Tu answered gruffly, “Since you asked, we shall answer. You have been hiding a certain fox from us, a very special female fox. Hand her over.”

He Zicheng and Qu Shen glanced at each other. They could not fathom how the secret about Jasmine was leaked out. This was especially puzzling since she had already escaped for many months!

“I can assume that you will not believe anything we say…” He Zicheng said.

“Kakaka! Of course not. Hand her over and I’ll let you live.” Queen Sundew said, “You’re quite handsome for a little kitty, I’ll treat you well!”

He Zicheng ignored her and asked, “Not a chance, but before we fight, answer me this. When did you find out about the fox?”

“Heh… human, did you forget where you obtained your powers?” The martial monkey said, “You perhaps forgot but we have never forgotten! We’ve never forgotten for five hundred years! The fox was always ours, but you took her away and killed three of our brethren. Now, I can finally make you pay!”

Woosh!

The martial monkey’s spiritual aura exploded furiously. The foggy clouds around them were blasted away, allowing for a clear view of the city below. This was the full strength of a Spirit King and every cultivator within the city could now feel the fearful pressure.

This was followed by four more equal pulses and six of lessor power. Queen Sundew was surrounded by a green cloud that gave off the feeling of life and death at the same time. King Huo Tu became a crimson fireball that threatened to ignite the air. He Zicheng, Qu Shen, and the six human lords all transformed into their semi-beast forms and the eleven spiritual auras immediately clashed.

Boom!

A massive multi-colored explosion swept through the sky. The beast kings were knocked away by a kilometer while the human side was knocked even farther away and down towards the city.

“Activate the formation!”

“Go!”

He Zicheng and Qu Shen landed above their castles on top of the mountain. The six Spirit Lords formed a hexagon formation and flew to the open area where the Snake Lord’s castle once stood.

They all raised their hands to the sky above and a huge spiritual array appeared out of thin air.

“No, that’s impossible!” Queen Sundew screamed and charged down.

She was too late as the Grand Beast God Formation was activated in a split second. It covered the entire city from top to bottom in a pale, see-through dome. She launched a slash with her claws at the shield only for the attack to splash and dissipate harmlessly.

The three beast kings were all shocked but refused to give up. They each powered up their innate beast abilities and prepared to siege the city.
