Lu Acai said, "There are only two dummy cities in our passage. If we conquer Nanyue City, Tubang City will be no threat. If a crisis comes to Earth, this place can also serve as a backup plan."

Thanos Alphad of the Eternals nodded in agreement and said, "This time, my Eternals will definitely do our best to help you attack South Moon City, but regardless of success or failure, I hope you can also help us manufacture a batch of Godslayer Spikes."

Lu Acai agreed without any hesitation: "That's no problem, but you'll have to pay for the materials yourself."

The Kryptonian master and Alphad exchanged a glance and both indicated that there was no problem.

Early that morning, Qin Wu was summoned. When Lu Acai saw Qin Wu arrive, a complex look appeared in her eyes. It could be said that the reason why the human side was able to turn the tide was entirely due to this young martial artist who had reached the Transformation Realm.

Qin Wu stepped forward and said to Lu Acai, "Did the Grandmaster call me here because what I asked for has been prepared?"

"Come with me." Lu Acai turned and led Qin Wu into the inner room, handing him a unique crossbow bolt.

"These are custom-made crossbows that you specifically requested. Although I don't know why you want them or what their purpose is, I believe you must have your own use for them. However, I still think it's too risky for you to request to act alone during this attack on Nanyue City. Why don't you reconsider?"

Qin Wu didn't say much, but simply concealed his aura. Lu Acai immediately felt as if Qin Wu had disappeared right in front of him. If Lu Acai hadn't known Qin Wu for a long time, he might have thought that the Nascent Soul stage expert was standing in front of him.

Lu Acai was at a loss for words; even he himself couldn't do that.

Seeing that Lu Acai didn't speak for a moment, Qin Wu smiled slightly: "Grandmaster, you don't need to worry about me. Although I can't beat him, I still have many ways to escape. And now, as long as the Grandmaster doesn't make a move, ordinary internal energy is really no match for me."

Lu Acai remained silent for a moment, then stopped trying to dissuade her: "This God-Slaying Thorn was specially given to you, so you don't need to return it. However, I still hope that you will act cautiously."

Qin Wu looked at Lu Acai in surprise. The God-Slaying Thorn was now a strategic weapon, and Lu Acai had actually given him one. In addition to the specially made crossbow bolt, it was also equipped with five ordinary crossbow bolts, as well as the leather armor that Qin Wu had asked Lu Acai to make for him.

Lu Acai didn't say much and directly gave them the order to leave.

On the way back, Qin Wu sensed a tense atmosphere. Every warrior from Dawn City was walking hurriedly, with a solemn expression on their face.

"It seems the battle with Nanyue City will be in the next couple of days. I should prepare to set off." Qin Wu muttered to himself as he returned to his residence.

After returning, they did not linger and set off directly for Nanyue City.

After returning from Lingshan, he exchanged for the human skin mask and then easily infiltrated Nanyue City.

As a result, on the very second day after arriving in Nanyue City, the army of Shuguang City had already arrayed itself beneath the city walls. Qin Wu couldn't help but marvel at Shuguang City's marching speed and their determination to attack Nanyue City.

"Luckily I went ahead, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to enter the city." Qin Wu couldn't help but give himself a thumbs up for his (good Zhao) foresight.

At this moment, the Lord of Nanyue City had already taken to the air. Seeing the densely packed army of Dawn City, he laughed in fury: "Do you really think Nanyue City is made of clay? Today, I'll make sure you don't leave alive!"

"All generals, heed my command! Crush the enemy!"

Just after the Lord of Nanyue City finished speaking, five powerful auras suddenly rose from the Dawn City's ranks, instantly dispersing the thick clouds in the sky.

The Lord of Nanyue City had a gloomy face. The other side had actually sent five Grandmasters. Weren't they afraid of being left vulnerable? How dare they?

Lu Acai shouted, "Attack!"

Immediately, a densely packed army began its orderly assault on Nanyue City.

Chapter 373: Slaying a Grandmaster (1)

Chaos had broken out in Nanyue City, with squads of soldiers gathering in the outer city. Taking advantage of the chaos, Qin Wu hid in a house and knocked the people inside unconscious.

The people of Dawn City formed twelve square formations around the God-Slaying Thorn, slowly advancing until South Moon City was already outside the attack range of the God-Slaying Thorn before stopping.

At this moment, the inscription on the God-Slaying Thorn controlled by Chen Baima lit up, and with a "whoosh," the crossbow bolt flew out.

"boom!"

A loud bang was heard, and the city gate of Nanyue City broke open. The crossbow bolts, still powerful, passed through the city gate and killed a group of warriors before finally landing.

The soldiers standing on the city wall felt a huge tremor coming from beneath their feet, and many of the lower-level martial artists fell to the ground with a thud.

The Lord of Nanyue City was furious. His spiritual power surged violently, and with a roar, he slashed his palm towards Chen Baima. Instantly, a giant palm formed from spiritual energy descended from the sky.

Lu Acai moved and appeared in mid-air. At the same time, he drew a long sword and slashed at the giant palm. A dazzling sword light and the giant palm of spiritual energy collided instantly.

"Boom 370 rumble!"

A tremendous noise came from the sky. The Kryptonian Grandmaster intervened and blocked the dissipating aftershocks; otherwise, a large number of Dawn City's soldiers would have been killed by the aftershocks of the Grandmasters' battle.

At this moment, the white-robed grandmaster from Nanyue City also flew into the sky. When Wei Yitian saw that it was an old friend, he immediately rushed forward and engaged in a fierce battle with him.

Dawn City's God-Slaying Thorns fired several more times, directly blasting down a section of South Moon City's wall, and the army's morale soared to its peak.

Whenever a soldier blocked the breach, a crossbow bolt would fly in. Before the two armies had even officially clashed, tens of thousands of people had already died in Nanyue City. For a time, no one dared to stand at the breach in the city gate.

Immediately, the soldiers of Dawn City charged into the outer city with a roar and began to fight the soldiers of South Moon City.

The soldiers of Nanyue City were all rushing towards the outer city, but Qin Wu went against the flow. He needed to get to the inner city as quickly as possible because that old tree was about to unleash its power. If he couldn't deal with it quickly, Shuguang City might suffer heavy casualties.

Although they were discovered several times along the way, they still managed to sneak into the inner city without any major incidents.

At this moment, a powerful spiritual force burst forth from the inner city. Lu Acai, who was fighting with the City Lord of Nanyue, suddenly groaned and took a few steps back. The City Lord of Nanyue immediately launched a fierce attack, and for a moment Lu Acai was powerless to fight back.

Alphad frowned, then flew into the air and joined the battle. The Kryptonian master flew towards Wei Yitian, instantly turning the tide of the battle.

With the help of the God-Slaying Thorn, the soldiers of Dawn City were driving the enemy into a retreat. Just then, a sudden change occurred: countless tree roots pierced out of the ground, instantly piercing through the bodies of thousands of Dawn City soldiers.

For a time, Nan Yue City regained the upper hand. Qin Wu was extremely anxious. The old tree had already made its move, but he dared not act too quickly, for fear of failing at the last minute.

Half an hour later, Qin Wu stopped a mile away from the old tree. He quietly climbed up a pavilion, looked at the huge old tree from afar, released the God-Slaying Thorn, took out the specially made crossbow bolt, poured the Soul-Devouring Essence into it, and then quietly waited for the right moment.

Just then, the old tree launched a mental attack on Lu Acai and the others in mid-air.

Qin Wu thought to himself, "What a great opportunity!"

A burst of light flashed from the God-Slaying Thorn, and with a "whoosh," the crossbow bolt struck the tree trunk instantly. The bolt pierced the trunk only half an inch before exploding into dust.

Upon seeing that the crossbow bolt had hit its target, Qin Wu immediately sheathed the God-Slaying Thorn and, regardless of the outcome, jumped off the pavilion.

"hold head high!"

At that moment, everyone on the battlefield seemed to hear an angry roar. In an instant, the ground in the outer city rippled like boiling water, and countless roots stretched out from the ground, attacking indiscriminately without distinguishing friend from foe.

The Lord of Nanyue City unleashed a burst of energy, repelling Lu Acai and Thanos. He turned to look at the old tree, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes. Since he took control of Nanyue City, he had never seen the old tree so angry.

Qin Wu hid in a corner of a house, concealing his aura to the extreme, not daring to even breathe. The old tree's immense spiritual power spread through the city like a tide.

But not long after, the old tree suddenly stopped growing. Qin Wu was overjoyed, knowing that the effects of the Soul Devouring Essence had taken hold.

Without the old tree's harassment, the City Lord of Nanyue and the white-robed grandmaster were suddenly in grave danger.

"what!"

A scream came from the air. The white-robed master was hit by Wei Yitian's punch and spat out a mouthful of blood. Seeing that he had no chance of winning, he turned and ran.

Qin Wu was retreating towards the outer city when he saw the white-robed grandmaster flying towards him while fighting. With a thought, he took out the God-Slaying Thorn, adjusted the angle instantly, and fired an arrow during a gap in the battle.

The white-robed master immediately felt goosebumps rise on his back. He quickly turned around, only managing to cross his arms in front of his chest before being struck by a crossbow bolt.

With a loud "boom!", he was sent flying, and then crashed heavily to the ground like a tattered sack.

Wei Yitian flew over quickly and saw that the white-robed master was covered in blood and gore, his arms were gone, and he was lifeless.

He took a deep breath, a look of shock on his face. He reached out and touched the white-robed grandmaster's neck, muttering, "What a terrifying God-Slaying Thorn!"

Chapter 374: The Tragedy of Nan Yue (2)

"Ding!"

"The host has killed a Grandmaster-level expert and gained one million martial arts points."

Upon hearing the system notification, Qin Wu was stunned. He was dead already?

Qin Wu felt it was surreal that he, a mere Transformation Realm cultivator, had killed a Grandmaster Realm expert, but the real million points he received confirmed that it wasn't a dream.

The Lord of Nanyue City had already sensed the disappearance of the white-robed grandmaster's aura, and the old tree demon, Nanyue City's last trump card, had inexplicably fallen silent. He immediately knew that something was terribly wrong.

With a clear whistle, his previously waning aura suddenly surged upwards, clearly indicating that he had used a secret technique to unleash his potential.

Lu Acai and Thanos both showed a solemn expression. Lu Acai activated her spiritual power, and a sword light over ten feet long emerged from her longsword. Thanos waved his hand, and lightning from all over the sky gathered in his hand, condensing into a long spear.

Both sides unleashed their most powerful tactics. The Lord of Nanyue City looked at Lu Acai and Thanos with reddened eyes, appearing to have aged considerably.

He threw a punch at the two of them, and a giant fist wrapped in blood energy suddenly appeared in mid-air. Thanos raised his lightning spear and hurled the giant fist with a "sizzle". Lu Acai leaped forward and slashed with his sword.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the space where the three clashed distorted, and black cracks appeared.

The three of them were immediately sent flying backward. Nan Yuecheng, seeing that the situation was hopeless, turned into a streak of bloody light and disappeared into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

Lu Acai and the others did not pursue them. They had already achieved their goal, and now all they needed to do was capture the old tree demon to complete their mission.

At this moment, the soldiers of Nanyue City saw their city lord and the white-robed grandmaster fall one after another, and their morale plummeted. They were at a loss as to what to do, as there was no sign of the guardian deity of Nanyue City.

Ordinary people in the city had begun to flee in panic through the side gates, and some who were unwilling to leave joined the resistance.

Qin Wu was in the underground spirit mine. He originally wanted to take this opportunity to collect some high-grade spirit stones, but he did not expect to encounter a group of soldiers from Nanyue City. The soldiers hurriedly walked into the mining area.

"Nanyue City has almost been breached. Why aren't they fleeing for their lives? What are they doing here?" Qin Wu was filled with doubt and quietly followed them.

Along the way, Qin Wu saw that the roots of the old tree were covered with black lines. Qin Wu secretly clicked his tongue in amazement. This was indeed the domineering spirit-devouring essence.

Then the group arrived at a mining area full of high-grade spirit ore.

“South Moon City is already beyond saving, but we must not leave the spirit mine beneath it to our enemies. We will detonate it separately, and then blow South Moon City to smithereens, so that they will perish with us.”

"Okay, let's do it!"

"What use is this spirit mine now that we've lost our home?"
