Chapter 1054: Disgust
When Ye Zhongming woke up, he didn’t get up immediately. He looked at the ceiling and thought back to the moment he fainted.
He used the Soul Shattering Bone Staff three times and shot through the charging Saint Light Hall army. He estimated that with the density of that army, three pillars killed tens of thousands of people.
Of course, there might be more.
No one cared about the number. The appearance of that attack exceeded normal meaning, shattering their faith.
Because of his preparation, he was able to use it three times. However, this preparation was for level nine Saint Father. He was forced to use it now.
Ye Zhongming obtained a mental energy recovery scroll. Compared to mental energy recovery potions, the scroll recovered based on ratio.
Ye Zhongming obtained six of them, each of which could help him recover his mental energy by 30%.
Naturally, he spent a large amount of things to get the scrolls.
At the same time, he obtained an ability strengthening potion.
This was a potion that could increase job skill or ordinary skill, which was also based on a ratio. But its ratio wasn’t too much. The ones Ye Zhongming got weren’t too good and could only increase it by 10%. They couldn’t stack either.Be it the mental energy recovery scroll or ability strengthening potion, they might not mean much to others, but to Ye Zongming, they were very effective.
His base value was high.
Ye Zhongming’s mental energy or the Soul Shattering Bone Staff’s attacks were terrifying. To increase the base of these abilities by a percent was shocking.
So Ye Zhongming could use it three times and even strengthen the staff.
After the staff attack, the entire Saint Light Hall army was affected. The Posthumous people launched a counterattack and even headed out of the city to fight. After half a day, the Heaven Barrier appeared above the city again, and both sides stopped.
Both sides paid a huge price in this high-intensity battle.
On the side of the Posthumous people, due to the sneak attack, King Zishan died, and Hong Xiang lost his combat strength. Many level six and seven experts died, too. When the chaos began, those losses increased. The protector was injured and lost an arm. Neal fell unconscious. Little Tiger, Liang Chuyin, Little Li, Xia Bai, and Guang Yao were badly injured. Park Xiuying was unconscious. Little Tiger led the cavaliers to charge and was attacked, losing an eye…
On the side of Saint Light Hall, Ye Zhongming and Park Xiuying each killed a level-eight expert. Ling Kun and Xia Bai each killed a level-seven. On the walls, Ye Zhongming wiped their elite squad. Below it, he badly injured Rongzhi and Nan Jin. After Saint Light Hall saved them, it was said that Rongzhi died from his injuries.
The other head, Zai Li, was hit by the Annihilation cannon. After falling onto the walls, he was surrounded. But he was strong and broke free. But when he jumped off the walls, he couldn’t control his body and broke his legs. He was also badly injured.
The Saintess wasn’t feeling good also. She also suffered slight injuries. Cloud Peak had so many serious injuries because they tried to surround her. The protector’s arm was also sliced by her Glory Staff. This level eight Saintess was an enemy that gained their respect.
Like Ye Zhongming.
Also, Yangos landed in the Imperial City and was surrounded. Although it made a huge commotion and caused many deaths, even nearly killing half the city, it was captured.
Yangos's capture was why the Saintess was surrounded by the Posthumous People Alliance. If not, Yangos would fly into the sky with the Saintess, and the outcome of the battle would be uncertain.
These were just the higher-ups. There were more losses for the ordinary warriors. These numbers were enough for any commander to faint.
Just look at the few layers of corpses on the plain and wall, and you will know the price each side paid.
This was war!
No pity, no feelings, only killing.
Ye Zhongming didn’t do anything as his mental energy was gone. If he entered the battlefield, he would be targeted. Then, he would have to continue using mental energy, and he might faint at any moment.
Then, he wouldn’t be helping at all and would just be a burden.
When he stood on the walls and held the staff, it was more effective than his actual use of it. He was showing them that he was still there and that he could use that terrifying attack again.
Saint Light Hall had no suspicion as they also had a battle god in their Saint Father.
They felt like Ye Zhongming was waiting for the Saint Father, which was why he didn’t attack.
When the Brown Bone Pearl’s cooldown was up, Ye Zhongming reopened the barrier. This made Saint Light Hall retreat and gave the Posthumous people time to rest.
Although Ye Zhongming killed many of them, the staff wiped out their guards and cavalier elites and weakened them, but there were much more of them. If the battle continued, the outcome would be uncertain.
Anyways, both sides split and reorganized. But they were exhausted.
Each battle filled people with disgust. Both Ye Zhongming and the Saintess felt the same.
