Chapter 1769: Attack from the Royal Family
Nine people started charging at Chen Xiaobei. All their Ethereal Force were brighter and more powerful than most of the elites here. Judging from their energy wave, he could guess that all nine of them were Earth-Gods and they should be at least at the later phase of God Ascension cultivation! In other words, they were as powerful as the nine Dragon Kings of the Divine Dragon Starfield.
Soon after that, Chen Xiaobei noticed there were a dozen people behind these nine elites following them. It seemed like their energy wave was not as powerful as the nine elites in front of them. Still, their cultivation was at least at Ethereal cultivation. All of them were relatively young and appeared to be the princes of Royal Dome Faction.
Nine Wangye and a dozen princes were coming to attack Chen Xiaobei! Such a powerful combination of people would be considered as one of the most terrifying forces in the entire Royal Dome Starfield. Seeing that someone had come to help them, the remaining survivors that were trapped in Chen Xiaobei's formation were lit with hope once again.
"The nine Wangye are here! We are safe!"
"This is great... This is really great... With their help, we can definitely live to see tomorrow!"
"That's right! All nine Wangye have One-star Earth God weapons! All the evil spirits can be killed by them if they work together!"
"It was the right decision for us to choose to serve the royalty! In a critical moment like this, they will not hesitate to protect us! All hail the king! All hail the king!"
"Nine Wangye will slay the evil spirits! Nine Wangye will slay the evil spirits!" chanted the thousands of soldiers at the same time.
However, the nine Wangye did not rush into the battlefield immediately. Instead, they stood at a safe distance and observed the whole thing from afar. Though they were watching their allies getting killed with every passing second, they were still unmoved. Knowing that their lives were thousands of times more precious than the soldiers on the battlefield, none of them would risk their lives if they were unsure of defeating the enemy.
"Second brother! I think the painting that hovers in the sky is an Eight-star Spiritual Instrument! Any of our Earth-God Instruments are powerful enough to eliminate it!" said Fourth Wangye.
"Haha! I have figured it out since the very beginning! The painting is indeed an Eight-star Spiritual Instrument and it has a Yin Attribute! All we need is a Pure Yang Earth-God Instrument to crush it!" said Second Wangye.
"We should let our juniors try to take it down since there's no real harm from it!" said Third Wangye.
Upon hearing that, all the princes were very eager to try it out. One should know that since the recently appointed heir to the throne was dead, this was their golden opportunity to compete in becoming the next best candidate for the throne.
"Little Five! Come here! Take my Luminous Lightning Sword and kill all those evil spirits!" said Second Wangye.
"Yes! I'll do it now!"
"Little Five! I have high expectations of you!"
After that, Second Wangye passed the sword to him. At the same time, he also cut off his Spiritual Connection with the sword so Little Five could use it.
"Don't worry! I will never disappoint you! The king will surely reward us abundantly if we manage to solve this crisis!"
Evidently, the two of them had made some kind of pact to achieve mutual benefits.
"Hold on! Little Four! I want you to take my Sun Rising Mountain Slashing Axe and help Little Five all you can!" said Seventh Wangye.
"Okay!"
Immediately, the Fourth Prince ran to Seventh Wangye.
"Little Four, you should know what you need to do, right?"
Likewise, Seventh Wangye cut off the Spiritual Connection with his axe.
"Seventh Uncle, don't you worry! I will definitely protect my fifth brother!" said the Forth Prince with a grim smile on his face.
"Seventh Brother! What are you trying to do?!" asked Second Wangye.
"I'm doing what you are doing! Go and wreak some havoc, Little Four!" said Seventh Wangye.
"Okay!"
Immediately, the Fourth Prince raised his axe and charged into the battlefield.
"Little Five! Go after him! Don't let him rob off your merit points!" shouted Second Wangye.
"Will do!"
The Fifth Prince did the same as well.
Swoosh!
Unexpectedly, the Fourth Prince became paralyzed the moment he stepped into the battlefield. The blood-red flame had managed to lock his Ethereal Force. In other words, there was nothing he could do to alleviate his current situation.
"What is going on... Something is wrong... Seventh Uncle, please save me!" shouted the Fourth Prince.
After all, the Fourth Prince was only at Ethereal Cultivation and lacked combat experience as well. He was left in a state of panic when he found out that he could not muster his strength to break out from the binding.
"Shit..."
Just like the Fourth Prince, the Fifth Prince wanted to earn all the merits alone. As a result, he did not manage to stop in time leaving him in the same state as the Fourth Prince.
"Oh god... Please help me... Help me!"
The Fifth Prince lacked even more combat experience than the already inexperienced Fourth Prince. He was so scared that he almost peed his pants.
"You two idiots! Stop screaming! Use the Earth-God Instruments! It can help you break free from the binding! This is bad!" shouted Second Wangye.
Before Second Wangye could even finish his words, his heart dropped.
Swish!
Swish!
Swish!
20 Blood God Illusions voraciously charged at the two princes. Within seconds, both of them were shredded into pieces.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Chen Xiaobei then picked up the two Earth-God Instruments that had fell to the floor.
"No... No!"
Second and Seventh Wangye screamed at the same time. The two of them carried the looks of people who had just lost their father. That was because Chen Xiaobei had just built a Spiritual Connection with their Earth-God Instruments!
