Genshin Impact: Demon God of Shura
Chapter 123 The Unusual Tremors of Tianheng Mountain
Time flies, and hundreds of years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Guixiu is located in the northwest of the city, on an open area outside the city wall.
"Thousand Rock Warriors, Asura Guards, form ranks! Guards in front, Thousand Rock Warriors behind! Asura Archers, 50-degree angle forward, full draw! Asura Rangers, Asura Dragon Guards, stand by!"
"Yes!"
As a gentle yet spirited female voice rang out, numerous fully armed Asura Guards roared and quickly formed a tight shield wall several hundred meters long and more than two meters high on the open ground.
Between and above the shield wall were rows of white spears, only their tips visible. These were the White Cherry Spears, issued to the Thousand Rock Army, used to stop enemies capable of forcibly crossing the shield wall, and to stand in place of the Asura Guards to meet enemies in front of the shield wall.
Behind the shield wall were numerous Asura Knights wielding dual swords and Asura Dragon Guards holding heavy battle axes, standing ready in place. They formed two attack formations, with the Dragon Guards in front and the Knights behind, ready for battle.
At the very back of the shield wall, which is closest to the outer city wall of Guixiuli, stood a large number of Shura archers holding war bows. They all had their bows fully drawn and were bent over at a 50-degree angle, facing the sky.
It's easy to tell from the slightly trembling arms of the Asura archers how heavy their bowstrings are!
On the open ground in front of the shield wall, a dense, seemingly endless horde of demons was rushing toward Gui Xiuli, their purpose extremely clear.
However, these monsters were different in that they were constantly emitting ominous black energy, and they also looked much more ferocious than ordinary monsters.
Therefore, the dust storms raised by this wave of monsters were much more spectacular and towering than those of a normal monster wave.
Behind the dust and smoke stirred up by the monster tide, many humans were rushing over in all sorts of strange postures, their bodies constantly emitting ominous black energy.
It was obvious that these humans, like the horde of monsters ahead, had been controlled, and it was clearly the work of some demon god.
Because, in the eyes of Heuria, who was in charge of the operation and was positioned above the shield wall, these attacking monsters and humans all possessed a power unique to a demon god, and moreover, it was a high-ranking demon god.
Even so, the many Thousand Rocks warriors and Asura warriors did not back down. Instead, like Heulia in the air, they became even more determined.
Because, in their dictionary, there is no such thing as retreat!
"Asura Archer, fire!"
Once the monster horde was within a certain distance, Heureia immediately ordered the arrows to be fired!
Boo hoo hoo-!
No sooner had the words left his mouth than a rain of arrows, powerful enough to blot out the sun, appeared in the air and covered nearly one-tenth of the area of the monster horde!
In an instant, countless monster corpses appeared on the battlefield. The large number of corpses temporarily slowed down the overall advance of the monster tide, and at the same time, it gave a large number of return missiles on the city wall an opportunity to take aim.
On the city wall behind, Gui Zhong, who had been waiting for a long time, suddenly waved her hand and shouted:
"Soldiers of Thousand Rocks, 10 o'clock position, target—monster horde! One volley, fire!"
call out--
With a piercing whooshing sound from dozens of long-charged Return Machines behind them, the monster horde in front of the shield wall was instantly covered by a blinding yellow light, followed by a deafening thud.
Boom!
The smoke from an explosion instantly filled the battlefield, obscuring everyone's vision.
However, Heureia, who was located above the shield wall, saw this and used her divine power to wave her hand from a distance, instantly dispelling the thick smoke and revealing the scorched ground below where only a few monster limbs and broken arms remained.
Clearly, the first wave of the monster horde's attack has been blocked!
However, soon, a large number of monsters roared and appeared, stepping over the limbs and broken arms of their kind on the ground, and continued to attack the shield wall!
"Asura Archer, 46 degrees, full draw, fire!"
Heureia waved her hand in front of her and gave the order.
As soon as she finished speaking, another barrage of arrows, powerful enough to blot out the sun, rose up behind Heuria. After tracing a graceful arc in the air, it landed in the densest area of the monster horde, instantly felling a large number of monsters.
However, at this moment, some scattered monsters began to rush to the front of the shield wall and start attacking it, but they were quickly pierced through by several spears from the Thousand Rock Army, who were waiting in formation behind the shield wall.
Meanwhile, on the rear city wall.
"Soldiers of Qianyan, fire freely!"
Gui Zhong waved his hand and gave the order.
However, before the Thousand Rock Army soldiers on Guizhong could press the firing button, Lantian, who had just received the news and rushed over from the Tianheng Mountain defense line, landed beside Guizhong, raised his hand and made a fist gesture to stop the Thousand Rock Army soldiers, adding:
"Soldiers! Aim and fire freely at the monster horde ahead. I'll handle the controlled crowd in the rear!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lan Tian released his raised right fist and waved it forward, signaling the Thousand Rock Army on the Returning Terminal to open fire.
Then, Lan Tian nodded to Gui Zhong, who was standing to the side, indicating that "Gui Zhong, you are in charge here."
After doing all this, Lan Tian raised his hand and put on the light blue Shura Nuo mask. Holding two Pure Water Oaths, he suddenly shot out from the city wall, heading towards the energy crossbow bolts of the Returning End Machine and the humans who were rushing towards the attacking monster tide in various strange postures.
"Heureia! This place is in your hands!"
As he passed by Heuria, Blue Sky transmitted his divine power to her.
"Don't worry, Blue Sky, I'm here for you!"
Upon hearing this, Heureia transmitted her voice to the departing Blue Sky God, then looked down to observe the battlefield situation and continued to command:
"Asura Archer, 45-degree angle, full draw! Fire!"
call out--
……
Meanwhile, on the other side of the blue sky...
Boom!
Lan Tian landed suddenly, carrying two water-elemental enchanted swords called Pure Water Oath. The impact instantly created a splash of azure water on the ground, tearing the surrounding monsters, who hadn't even had time to react, to shreds.
"Come and fight!"
After pulling the Oath of Purification from the ground, Blue Sky began to clear away the roaring monsters that were rushing towards him.
When the Asura strikes, nothing remains!
The demons that were killed by the blue sky were almost all dead. They were either missing limbs, cut in half, or cleaved into several pieces.
Since Lantian was located at the rear of the monster tide, there were only scattered monsters and the rest were controlled humans. Therefore, Lantian quickly wiped out the monsters mixed in with the crowd.
The rest were the humans who were under control, but to be precise, there were also some celestial yakshas wielding various weapons.
But for Lan Tian, the Asura God born for battle, this was nothing more than fancy footwork. In addition, due to the stiffness caused by being controlled, Lan Tian could easily dodge it with a few movements.
At the same time, Lan Tian began to intentionally or unintentionally dodge the attacks while leading the entire crowd in another direction to avoid direct contact with those ferocious monsters.
This also prevented the Thousand Rock Army soldiers on the city wall who were operating the Return Machine from becoming hesitant and timid due to concerns about their comrades in the monster tide.
After half an hour.
As the crowd behind them was led to the edge of the battlefield by Blue Sky, the Shield Wall, under Heuria's command, began to launch a counterattack against these rampaging monsters!
Upon seeing this, Gui Zhong on the city wall behind him hurriedly ordered the Qianyan Army, who were operating the Gui Zhong machine, to immediately cease fire to avoid accidentally injuring friendly forces.
"Asura Guards, raise your shields! Thousand Rock Army, Asura Knights, Asura Dragon Guards, attack!"
"what!"
With a deafening roar, the numerous Asura Guards, each wielding a heavy shield, simultaneously unleashed a coordinated shield slam, instantly scattering the demons piled in front of the shield wall, sending them sprawling to the ground in disarray.
"kill!"
At that moment, rows of Asura Knights began to step on the shoulders of the Asura Guards and fly over the shield wall, launching the first counterattack against the monster tide!
"Come on!"
Just as the Asura Knights plunged their twin blades into the bodies of the monsters beneath them, a large number of Thousand Rock Army soldiers began to burst out from the gaps left by the Asura Guards and began to fight the monsters!
"Come and fight!"
After the Thousand Rock Army had all passed the Asura Guards, rows of burly Asura Dragon Guards, wielding heavy battle axes and wearing dragon horn masks, followed closely behind and passed the Asura Guards.
The massive axe blades behind them began to rub rapidly against the ground as they moved, producing a series of dangerous and sharp metallic scraping sounds!
"Shura Knights, Thousand Rock Army, retreat! Shura Dragon Guards, turn and slash horizontally!"
Upon hearing this, the Asura Knights and Thousand Rock Army soldiers who were engaged in direct combat with the monsters quickly held their weapons horizontally in front of them, parrying the monsters' claw attacks while retreating according to Heuria's orders.
Just as the Asura Knights and Thousand Rock Army passed the Asura Dragon Guards, all the Asura Dragon Guards who arrived at the front line immediately turned around, gripped their battle axes tightly, spun around, and fiercely swept their bodies across the horde of monsters in front of them.
Under the terrifying power of the Asura Dragon Guard, the huge battle axe blades instantly cut the horde of demons rushing towards them in half!
A large amount of demon blood spurted out in an instant, splashing onto the heavy offensive armor worn by the Asura Dragon Guard.
The scene was once very spectacular.
"Come and fight!"
Just as the frontline Asura Dragon Guards finished their attack, the Asura Guards wielding heavy shields immediately rushed forward, instantly knocking away any demons that attempted to attack the Asura Dragon Guards who had not yet adjusted their positions, producing a series of dull thuds.
At the same time, crisp sounds of bones breaking began to emanate from the heads or forepaws of some of the monsters that had been thrown into the air, clearly indicating that they were seriously injured!
This also indirectly shows how powerful the shield strike of the Asura Guardian is!
Just as the battle on this side of the city wall reached its climax, a powerful burst of grass elemental energy suddenly erupted in an instant on a clearing far from the monster horde in the distance!
A large number of slender and vibrant green vines covered the area at once. If you look closely, you can see that several controlled humans or celestial yakshas are wrapped around the vines, and the black energy on their bodies is being absorbed by the vines!
But just then, the voice of the blue sky arrived belatedly:
"Forest of Life, Purify!"
Before long, the humans and celestial yakshas who were still struggling began to fall into a coma as the demonic power within them was absorbed and purified.
As the grass elemental power spread, some monsters were affected, and the black aura on their bodies was quickly purified.
The purified demons, having lost their demonic power, were exhausted and collapsed, their combat strength reduced to almost nothing overnight!
"Good! Good!"
Seeing this scene greatly encouraged the many Thousand Rocks and Asura soldiers who were fighting the demons head-on, and their morale soared.
As more and more monsters began to be purified by the power of the blue sky, Gui Xiuli began to push back the attacking monster tide, crushing those monsters whose physical condition was much worse than before!
The battle ended after more than an hour, leaving behind a ground littered with the corpses of monsters, as well as a small number of Thousand Rock Army soldiers and Asura Knights.
And... the ground beneath him, already stained red with a large amount of blood.
"Soldiers! Clean up the battlefield and aid the wounded!"
"Yes!"
With Heureia's order, all the blood-soaked Thousand Rock Army soldiers and Asura Knights began to clean up the battlefield, while simultaneously finishing off the relatively intact monsters on the ground.
The wounded soldiers began to help each other slowly walk toward the Asura archers behind them.
Seeing this, the Asura archers in the rear began to cooperate with some of the Asura Knights, rescuing or searching for the wounded, or helping to carry the bodies of the fallen soldiers to the open space below the city wall.
Even Heuria in the sky and Guizhong on the city wall joined in, cleaning up the battlefield with everyone.
But now everyone is facing a serious problem—this is the northwestern outer city wall of Guixiuli, and it is several kilometers away from the nearest northern city gate. At the speed at which the wounded are moving, it will be too late to get there.
However, at that moment, in his Mansen form, he used his flying sword to send the unconscious humans and celestial yakshas to the blue sky at the western gate of Guixiuli City, and then turned back to the battlefield.
"Heureia, Guizhong, how are the wounded?"
As soon as they landed, Lan Tian asked seriously.
"Blue Sky, the wounded are all gathered there, you should go and take a look."
Heureia turned and pointed towards the open space below the city wall behind her.
Gui Zhong, seeing this, also echoed:
"Blue Sky, those seriously wounded among them may need your flying sword to transport them back to Xiuli."
"No problem, leave it to me!"
Lan Tian nodded slightly to the two of them, then turned and flew towards the open space below the city wall.
A dozen minutes later, a huge flying sword, loaded with wounded soldiers and a small number of Thousand Rock Army soldiers, slowly rose into the air and flew towards the nearest field hospital under the divine control of the blue sky.
Meanwhile, the soldiers piled up the corpses of the demons into dozens of tall mountains and began to burn them on the spot.
"Thank you for your hard work, soldiers!"
Returning to Heureia and the blue sky beside her, she amplified her voice with divine power and shouted:
“It’s not hard work!!”
Upon hearing this, the numerous Thousand Rock Army soldiers and Asura Knights immediately turned around and saluted in the direction of Lan Tian and the other two, shouting in unison.
"Thousands of rocks are solid, and the mountains will never move!"
"Asura is with you!"
The blood-stained weapons and armor on the soldiers' bodies, along with the murderous aura emanating from their sharp eyes, made the atmosphere on the entire battlefield extremely solemn and heavy, exuding a powerful aura.
This made Lan Tian and the other two nod with satisfaction.
Two hours later.
After all the demon corpses were burned to ashes, the group stepped onto the dozens of giant flying swords constructed by Lan Tian. Lan Tian's Shura Token at his waist began to glow.
"Maxius? Luo Xue? What brings you here?"
Picking up the token, Lan Tian discovered that it was Marcus and Luo Xue, who were stationed on the Tianheng Mountain defense line, who had contacted him.
"Master! There are unusual tremors starting to appear over Tianheng Mountain. I suspect a demon god may be attacking!"
"Lord Shura! I suggest that you also invite the Emperor to the Tianheng Mountain defense line, because Marcosius and I have not been able to find the source of this tremor!"
The somewhat anxious voices of Maxius and Luo Xue rang out from the token.
"Understood, I'm coming right away!"
Lan Tian nodded solemnly, severed the connection, turned around and said seriously to Gui Zhong and Heulia, who were looking at him with curiosity:
"There's been unusual activity at the Tianheng Mountain defense line. Morax and I need to go there together. I'm entrusting Gui Xiuli to the two of you!"
