Chapter 473 - 325: No Respect for Martial Virtue! Unleashing Havoc with Fourth Order Scrolls!_2
Even though the forbidden curse "Thunder Robbery Storm" blasted them left and right, it all rushed towards the little devils’ Protective Array.
Up next were the Metal Element Spell scrolls...
The power of over a hundred Fourth Order scrolls nearly covered the entire battlefield.
Collateral damage be damned, as long as it could kill the little devils, Zi Liyuan no longer cared.
If the Undead army suffered losses, so be it; given some time, recovery would pose no difficulty at all.
With a Castle of the Undead at his disposal, that was Zi Liyuan’s greatest source of confidence now!
The Fourth Order Peak combatants of the little devils were already overwhelmed, especially under this unreasonable and shameless bombardment of scrolls, dozens of them had been killed.
The most frustrating part was that some of them were blasted to death by forbidden curses summoned by the Tengu!
There was no helping it, the Tengu’s control over the "Thunder Robbery Storm" was completely lost due to Zi Liyuan’s sabotage.
Once a forbidden curse went out of control, for the entire battlefield, that was the most horrific blow.
Apart from the caster, who would not be affected by the curse’s backlash, all other living creatures had no choice but to endure the damage.
On Zi Liyuan’s side, the Dark Canopy took the brunt of the damage, eventually getting completely destroyed by the forbidden curse, and then the Wraith Mage legion immediately constructed layers upon layers of Death Barriers.
Under this relentless consumption, even if the Wraith Mages were all Lord Boss level, they still saw the Power of Death within them depleted.
But at least they withstood the blow of the forbidden curse, ensuring that Zi Liyuan and his allies didn’t suffer any harm.
In contrast, the little devils were truly in a miserable state!
The Dog Emperor’s scheme was sound, unleashing powerful spells was correct, wanting to crush Lord Zi in one fell swoop wasn’t wrong either, it was just that they underestimated Zi Liyuan’s ability to protect himself and his endlessly emerging tactics!
It can be said that, after this ordeal, the little devils themselves had become the biggest losers.
A force of several hundred Fourth Order Peak combatants, under the out-of-control forbidden curse and the chaotic bombardment of the scrolls, nearly half were killed.
The most tragic ones were the frenzied Shikigami in the sky.
Their numbers, already in the thousands, being mercilessly surrounded and beaten by the Spectral Dragon Lords and suffering from the public spectacle of the forbidden curse and the random explosions from the scrolls, suffered horrific casualties!

The number of Shikigami plummeted in a frenzy, dwindling to a few hundred survivors, all severely wounded.
As for the Tengu, he wasn’t doing well, either.
Relying on the absorption of Shikigami power to launch the forbidden curse, he was originally able to control it with ease, but after being pummeled by Zi Liyuan, he lost control of the curse.
The most fatal issue was, when the backlash hit, he couldn’t even cut off the magic power output of the forbidden curse, until the "Thunder Robbery Storm" drained him of all his energy, and the curse collapsed without sustaining energy.
The drained Tengu found recovery to be anything but easy, especially since the Spider Queen had already broken through Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi’s interception and struck him with another crazed assault.
The Dog Emperor could only watch helplessly as the Tengu grabbed Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi and struggled to defend himself, his body already slashed with countless wounds by the Spider Queen.
There was no helping it, even among legends, there are disparities.
Moreover, since the Tengu had his energy drained by the forbidden curse, he found it even harder to cope.
As for the Dog Emperor’s help, that remained wishful thinking.
He had launched a Wood Element forbidden curse, but it was blocked by Number Two’s Blood River Evil Spirit Formation.
As time dragged on, although the Wood Element forbidden curse could still maintain with difficulty, it was on the verge of collapse.
There was no helping it, the Blood River Evil Spirit Formation was just too insidious, and especially in the battlefield, whenever anyone died, their flesh and spirit would be devoured to enhance the power of the formation.
It could be said that covering the entire battlefield, with several hundred little devils killed in this round, all turned into genuine supplements, strengthening the formation’s power.
Particularly, the death of thousands of Shikigami, which were all Fourth Order, fueled the Blood River Evil Spirit Formation’s craving for Fourth Order spirits, the more it absorbed, the more powerful the formation became! Nôv(el)B\\jnn
One could truly state that after this round, not only did the formation not weaken, it even grew stronger.
Number Two, clad in a complete set of Purple Epic equipment, saw his three base attributes greatly enhanced, his control over the formation was no longer as strained.
Moreover, she had already completely refined the 108 formation flags, and the Blood River Demonic Spirit Evil Formation had become her natal formation; it was just that it had not yet been fully integrated.
This was a great help for Number Two in controlling the evil formation; at least it wouldn’t cause the formation to counterattack so easily.
The fearsome evil formation alone was too much for the Dog Emperor to withstand!
Moreover, Zi Liyuan had no intention of letting these guys off. He released Fourth Order scrolls one after another, preparing for a swift and decisive battle!
Regardless of the cost, hundreds of Fourth Order scrolls were unleashed, transforming the entire battlefield.
A certain unscrupulous Necromancer relied on the power of the Fourth Order scrolls to fight a battle of spending freely!
By the end, Zi Liyuan was relentlessly flicking them away.
On the Dog Emperor’s side, they kept crafting protections, one layer after another.
The Undead Calamity arrived suddenly.
The invasion of eight million deities and spirits was even more abrupt.
The protective barriers of Tokyo City shattered most unexpectedly.
Zi Liyuan’s bizarre breakthrough of the imperial palace’s protective barrier caught them completely off guard.
Due to the urgency of time, the Dog Emperor and those little devils’ top brass had no time to empty the treasury, so they did not have many resources on hand.
Therefore, facing Zi Liyuan’s unscrupulous use of Fourth Order scrolls to bombard them, it was genuinely difficult to resist.
With the consumption of a full five hundred Fourth Order scrolls, the entire battlefield was nearly wiped clean.
The little devils’ formation finally collapsed, the Dog Emperor’s Wood Element forbidden spells were shattered, the Tengu was being pummeled by the Spider Queen on the ground, and the high ranks of the little devils within the shadows were finally taken down.
However, Zi Liyuan did not step out of the death barrier created by the Wraith Mages; instead, he let the army of the undead continue to harvest the battlefield.
This battle could be described as causing a thousand damage to the enemy while self-sustaining eight hundred.
The little devils were killed or crippled, but the army of the undead also suffered no small losses.
Fortunately, the casualties of Zi Liyuan’s most valued Spectral Dragons and the Legion of the Fear Knight King were not so numerous.
The Spectral Dragons and the Dread Knight King himself were basically only injured, at most severely wounded and withdrawing from combat; it was the Replicas who suffered heavy casualties, after all, they had used reckless tactics.
As for the other legions, aside from the Wraith Mage Legion, which had been hiding under the dark canopy and death barrier the whole time without any damage, just exhaustion, the Blood Race Legion, Spectre Legion, Zombie Legion, and Skeleton Army all suffered heavy losses.
After several forbidden spells, the Blood Race and Spectre Legions were nearly disabled; the zombies and skeletons were wiped out in one fell swoop, with only a few Lord Bosses surviving.
However, fortunately for Zi Liyuan, except for these four severely damaged legions, most of the time he treated them as cannon fodder, and replenishing their numbers was also very easy.
Seeing that the situation was settled and his side had already lost, the Dog Emperor didn’t hesitate to pull out the "Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi (Legendary)", ready to cancel the micro-dimension space and escape.
Unfortunately, Zi Liyuan, who had anticipated this, how could he let his opponent get his way?
As soon as he was trapped in this dimension by his opponent, he immediately strengthened it with a spatial barrier!
The ability to create a micro-dimension space was not something only you little devils possess!
Not lacking in funds, thick-skinned, and with plenty of resources on hand, Lord Zi shamelessly borrowed a device capable of creating a micro-dimension secret realm from the Great Xia Treasury!
For this, he even paid three instances as a borrowing fee!
This was also a legendary device; when he was pulled into the micro-dimension space created by the "Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi", he immediately also used this device.
In other words, just as the little devils imprisoned them, Lord Zi’s group trapped their opponents here as well!
So, from the beginning of the great battle, no one was thinking of escaping!
Between the two sides, there was only a contest of life and death!
It’s either you die or I perish!
One side was fully prepared, the other caught unawares. It seemed that the little devils had calculated everything correctly and success was imminent.
Unfortunately, ultimately they failed to foresee that after learning about the function of the Dog Emperor’s three divine artifacts, Lord Zi played a move that turned their own strategy against them!
