Chen Xing had never seen the scene where thousands of skills were released at the same time before.

This time on the battlefield, he witnessed for the first time the shocking scene of thousands of skills erupting simultaneously.

Countless long-range skills were launched densely.

It was daytime now, but the light interwoven by countless skills formed dazzling streams of meteors, illuminating the entire battlefield.

Since they were all fire element skills, the sight in the sky was indescribably spectacular.

The sky looked like a vast sea of fire, resembling burning clouds sweeping towards the city towers.

The intense flames seemed to ignite the entire sky, casting the city towers in a red glow.

“Water Element prepare!” the local commander’s bellow burst out like thunder from the city tower.

Following his command, large water cannons began to shoot icy water columns into the sky.

But this was just assistive; immediately following were numerous Water Element Tamers releasing Water Element skills in succession.

However, the number of Water Element Tamers inside the city was far fewer compared to the Fire Element Tamers facing them.

Despite their best efforts, they were only able to neutralize some of the fire element skills.

The remaining fire element skills breached the defenses and continued to fall.

“Earth Element!” the commander issued the order again.

A large number of Earth Element Tamers inside the city sprang into action.

Countless earthen walls and shields condensed in the air above the city towers.

These Earth Element skills successfully blocked part of the fire element attacks again,

“Ice and Metal Elements!” following that, Ice and Metal Element Tamers also joined the fight.

The fire element skills were already very close now.

Scorching heat assaulted their faces, and many Tamed Beasts on the towers trembled uneasily, instinctively wanting to release skills, but their tamers calmed and stopped them.

Aside from same-element skills, the collision of different attributes would also cause the skills’ elements to clash and neutralize each other.

But they were now on the city towers; if they released skills, they would definitely conflict with the skills of their allies first.

Ice element skills were released in waves.

A large amount of white fog erupted outside the city wall.

Then, shields composed of metal elements took positions on the city towers.

The remaining fire element skills impacted on them.

When the two different elements collided, the remaining heat wave transferred through.

The temperature of the air above the city wall instantly rose by nearly ten degrees.

“Damn, covered by fire power,”

Dong Fang gritted his teeth.

Just now, when he released his skills, his Snow Bamboo Swordsman also released a Snowfall Cascade slash, extinguishing quite a bit of the fire element attack in this area.

But the temperature still increased significantly on the city tower, and some of the fire element skills penetrated the defenses and fell on the city tower.

Though they were quickly extinguished by the surrounding Tamed Beasts, this was merely a single round of projectile attacks from the opponent, and they were already struggling to cope.

Chen Xing’s expression turned solemn; this battle would likely be tough to fight.

On the plains, pre-planted land mines exploded, and many Tamed Beasts were blasted into disarray.

These Tamed Beasts endured the land mines and charged headlong.

Boom, boom, boom—

The continuous explosions echoed across the plain.

Chen Xing then saw a Tamed Beast approximately twenty-three meters long, resembling a giant lizard, collapse to the ground after charging hundreds of meters.

Behind it, more Tamed Beasts continued to relentlessly trample over its body and charge past.

Once a collective charge had formed, it was almost impossible to stop them.

On the city tower, the White Winged Giant Serpent spread its wings and flew out towards the barrier.

The Flame-Patterned Giant Dragon met it head-on.

At almost the same time, Lei Ting Beetles also stormed out of the barrier, heading towards the sides.

In the enemy’s camp, two other Transcendent Tamed Beasts, one in front and the other behind, chased after them.

The forces of Great Xia didn’t want a battle between Transcendent Tamed Beasts near the city towers. Similarly, the opposing attacking army advanced forward, not wanting a battle nearby either.

This was considered an unwritten rule on the battlefield.

…

A spider-like Tamed Beast, entirely red in color, climbed up the city wall.

It was met by a burst of thunder light, piercing its head and nailing it beneath the city tower.

Sixiang’s palm emitted lingering black smoke.

Sizzle—

Its body transformed into thunder light and vanished from its spot.

It also dodged an incoming flame.

Sixiang flew low along the city wall, its claws grabbing Lei Ting’s Thunder Spear and slashing downward forcefully!

“Ao!”

A primate Tamed Beast on the city tower was split open from scalp to spine by the lightning-infused spear.

Blood spurted out, and intense pain caused it to fall from the city wall, hitting the ground hard.

Wave after wave of Tamed Beasts launched assaults against the city wall from beneath.

Cries, roars, and the enemy’s hisses interwoven together, creating a mournful battle anthem.

Chen Xing wanted to summon Taotie, but the city tower was too narrow; its large body wasn’t just inconvenient to position, it also directly became a target.

And since Taotie lacked long-range attack capabilities, the only place it could appear was beneath the city tower.

Both on and below the city tower, both sides continuously threw skills at each other, with the area beneath the city tower being a key target for skill bombardment.

Sixiang, enhanced by dozens of Thunder Bathing Passive layers, soared into the air, surrounded by whirling thunder light like a descending Thunder God.

The most violent thunder power between heaven and earth converged into two massive lightning discs.

Hanging to the left and right, slowly rotating in the air, they emitted a heart-palpitating pressure.

Guided by Sixiang, dazzling thunder light erupted from the discs, transforming into a vast thunder cascade sweeping downward.

Endless thunder, like a waterfall, deluged the entire area.

Under this tempest of thunder, the crowded Tamed Beasts below the city tower had nowhere to escape and were blasted into charred remains.

The air was filled with a thick scent of scorch and residual power of thunder.

The beast tamers charging toward the city tower halted their steps, briefly creating an open space beneath the tower.

But quickly the opposition reacted, and a hundred-energy-level Blazing Owl Dragon Hawk took to the sky with mighty flaps of its wings, swiftly locking onto the Sìxiàng.

With a flutter of its wings, wisps of fiery flames danced like controlled spirits, rapidly forming a gigantic inferno vortex around the Sìxiàng.

The Sìxiàng sensed danger, their bodies lit up with lightning, transforming into a lightning-like brilliance that shot backward explosively.

However, the scope of the inferno vortex exceeded expectations, continuously expanding in the air, some areas even spreading towards the direction of the city tower.

The Snow Bamboo Swordsman spread his wings behind him, his slender and delicate forelimbs like two slender long spears, flashing silver.

The brilliant Snowfall Cascade sword light chopped toward the inferno vortex that was spreading toward the city tower.

The two forces collided, and an energy fluctuation erupted.

At the edge of the explosion, the Sìxiàng was blown away by the magic shockwave, their white wings scorched.

The victorious Blazing Owl Dragon Hawk proudly circled the sky above the area.

Suddenly, a streak of aqua afterimage swept from the side, striking the Blazing Owl Dragon Hawk in the sky.

The Blazing Owl Dragon Hawk cried out sharply, dropping a significant amount of blood and swiftly fleeing backward.

On a nearby city tower, Wang Tao, with a tiger-patterned large hawk behind him maintaining the skill-release stance, eyed the fleeing Blazing Owl Dragon Hawk.

“Don’t be too showy, or you’ll easily be targeted,” Dong Fang whispered to Chen Xing.

In this chaotic battlefield, any conspicuous target would be attacked first.

In the subsequent fight, the Sìxiàng still steadily outputted.

Yet they were not as “flashy” as before.

The intense battle lasted for nearly an hour until the pace of the opposing side’s attacks finally slowed.

An hour-long battle of high intensity left both sides extremely weary.

The beast tamers on the city walls had been switched out multiple times.

Due to limited magic power inside the tamed beasts, their energy depleted over time, requiring periods of recovery, or the consumption of magic recovery potions.

Simultaneously, the rhythm of skill release from both sides gradually slowed down.

Suddenly, at a certain moment, the tamed beasts beneath the city tower retreated like a tide.

Looking at this scene, Chen Xing felt somewhat moved, Taotie was still at full state, if Taotie were to act now…

In the distance, in the mountains, General Gu Yuzhi’s tamed beast flew back to the city pass.

At the same time, three other figures also flew towards the enemy’s army in the sky.

Chen Xing momentarily shelved that idea.

When the fight temporarily ceased, the heightened tension finally relaxed.

Chen Xing exhaled a sigh of relief and sat directly on the scorching floor.

During the battle, he had been fully engrossed, with no time to worry much; only now did he have the chance to observe the surroundings.

Many areas on the city tower were pitted with large holes smashed by the enemy’s skills.

There weren’t many bloodstains on the ground since the blood had been mostly destroyed by the aftermath of various skills.

However, the air was thick with the smell of blood.

Some dead or severely injured tamed beasts were carried down the city tower.

Chen Xing looked at the Sìxiàng, which now had many large and small wounds that had appeared at some unknown time.

Most wounds had already formed scabs, and the originally vibrant feathers had turned dull, but those eagle eyes, having undergone the baptism of war, had become even brighter.

“You go down and rest for a while, maybe the enemy will regroup shortly and continue the attack,” Dong Fang said to Chen Xing.

“What about you?”

“I’ll stand here for a while; I am more experienced than you, and I managed to save quite a bit of energy secretly,” Dong Fang revealed a proud smile, “Go on, take a rest now, and come back up when the enemy attacks again.”

“Should I bring you something?”

Licking his lips, Dong Fang said, “Bring me some water. It’s too hot at the enemy side, and it’s making me terribly thirsty now.”

Descending the staircase behind the watchtower, he arrived at the medical point behind it.

Although the war atop the watchtower had paused momentarily, the noise and busyness here had not ceased.

The smells of disinfectant, medicine, blood, and infected wounds mixed together.

Nurses bowed their heads as they treated the wounds of injured beasts, some of which lay on the ground receiving IV drips.

The sight of IV drips felt somewhat foreign to Chen Xing because his era seldom used them in hospitals.

Usually, Healing Element Tamers would administer their treatments.

Only minor symptoms, easily remedied by taking some medicine, required injections or medications.

“Doctor, Doctor, my tamed beast is dying! Do you have any healing skills?” a person yelled frantically in the distance.

Medical personnel accompanied by Healing Element Tamers quickly ran over to help.

The healing beasts looked utterly drained from frequently using their skills, as if hollowed out.

“No magic power left!”

“Is there any more magic power recovery potion?”

“Doctor, please save my beast; it’s about to die!”

“Quickly, this way, whose beast still has some magic power left?”

Observing the busy scene around him, Chen Xing suddenly thought how great it would be if he could bring Dong Jun here.

“Does your tamed beast need treatment?” A nurse noticed Chen Xing and Sìxiàng standing nearby.

Seeing the military rank on Chen Xing’s shoulder, she said, “Come with me over here.”

At the back, there was a separate treatment area.

Chen Xing noticed that several officers’ beasts were receiving treatment here.

A Snow Spirit Swan cast a mid-level healing skill, Blessing of Spiritual Light, on Sìxiàng.

The wounds on Sìxiàng’s body quickly formed scabs and healed rapidly.

“Luckily, there aren’t any fatal injuries; this skill should be enough to make a full recovery,” the doctor observed the healing wounds on Sìxiàng and nodded.

“Thank you, doctor.”

The doctor spoke kindly, “You’re welcome; it’s hard on you all, having your beasts heal early and continue to fight on the front lines.”

“Buzz—”

A sudden, shrill alarm sounded outside.

The enemy’s second round of attacks had begun!

Chen Xing’s face changed, wondering how could they be so quick, did they not need any rest at all?
