The black-armored cavalry brought by Xiao Zhan quickly formed a diamond-shaped battle formation, exuding a chilling killing intent, and charged menacingly towards the military headquarters' main formation.
Zhou Xuan suddenly realized that Xiao Zhan wasn't there to compete for the dragon vein at all; he was there to deliberately obstruct the Zhou family.
In order to prevent the Zhou family from obtaining the dragon vein, Xiao Zhan was actually willing to give up everything, including the dragon vein.
"Madman! This madman!" Zhou Xuan cursed repeatedly, his heart filled with shock and anger.
He has no grudge against Xiao Zhan, so if he has a grudge against the Zhou family, he should go find the Zhou family. Why is he making things difficult for an outsider like him here!
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Zhan's black-armored cavalry crashed into the Demon-Slaying Formation like a black torrent.
Zhou Xuan knew that the current formation would absolutely not be able to withstand such a fierce charge.
With a sense of helplessness, he unleashed his inner energy, sparing no effort to overdraw his supernatural powers, and manipulated the liquid metal into spikes that shot out.
But then the black-armored cavalrymen raised the Northern Ice Shield, and after injecting energy, the Ice Shield instantly emitted a layer of blue light.
The blue light acted like an indestructible barrier, deflecting all the spikes that Zhou Xuan had shot at him. The spikes struck the ice shield with a crisp sound and fell to the ground.
"Charge!" Xiao Zhan charged ahead, leading the charge, and shouted loudly.
"Xiao Zhan, are you really going to go this far?!" Zhou Xuan's voice trembled.
Xiao Zhan ignored Zhou Xuan's threats and kept shouting, "The Zhou family will be destroyed!"
It looked like he was about to lead his black-armored cavalry in a charge.
"Fine, fine, fine!" Zhou Xuan was furious, his eyes turning bloodshot with rage.
We'll settle this score with Xiao Zhan later. If he doesn't take action now, the military's formation will surely be breached.
"Damn it." Zhou Xuan was practically going crazy; the situation was completely out of his control.
He was truly driven to the brink of despair, and with no other choice, he had to divert a portion of the immense energy originally intended to suppress the dragon vein to resist the charge of the black-armored cavalry.
The moment Zhou Xuan withdrew the energy, the Rock Demon King was caught in a dilemma.
If he continues to suppress the dragon vein with all his might, the energy required by just one large formation would be extremely enormous.
Afterwards, the Demon Alliance will inevitably clash with the military. If they insist on suppressing the dragon vein, they might be defeated due to exhaustion of energy before they even begin to fight the military, resulting in a complete loss.
However, if he also relaxes the suppression, the dragon vein may immediately break free of its restraints and might even rise directly.
If the dragon vein ultimately does not choose him, then all their previous efforts will be in vain.
"What should we do?" The Stone Demon King's brows furrowed like mountains, unable to make a decision.
Just as everyone was caught in the chaos of battle.
Antonio, who had been watching from the edge of the swamp, finally moved.
Seeing that the time was ripe, he immediately led the saints behind him back to the swamp.
“The folly of the Middle-earth people is always so similar.” Antonio looked at the chaotic battle with disdain in his eyes.
As he approached the dragon vein, the holy book in his hand slowly floated up.
"They are always keen on internal strife. If this dragon vein power falls into the hands of Zhongzhou, it will only become a source of war."
Antonio, his face ashen, calmly addressed the saints behind him.
When the holy book was fully opened, he stretched out his right hand, and a holy light flowed from his fingertips like a trickle, then completely enveloped his hand.
Antonio's gaze was cold and fixed on the large, fat dragon in the distance:
"The dragon veins of the East should not exist in this world."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly stretched out his hand, which was enveloped in holy light, gently tore off a page from the holy book, and then tossed it into the air.
The page of paper rapidly brightened in the air, quickly transforming into a dazzling sphere of light, from which an unprecedentedly powerful force erupted.
The holy light emanating from the pages of the sacred text surged like a torrent, constantly impacting everything around it, causing the entire space to begin to faintly glow.
Judgment Day has arrived!
Antonio's voice was like the heavens shattering, resounding throughout the space illuminated by holy light, its echo lingering for a long time.
Each word seemed to come alive, transforming into physical golden script that merged with the sphere of light above, shimmering with dazzling brilliance.
This power is pure yet terrifying, like the most primal energy in the universe, inspiring awe.
At the same time, the phantom of the angel behind Antonio reappeared.
This time, however, the angelic phantom became exceptionally solid, as if it were truly real.
The enormous wings of light slowly unfurled, blotting out the sky and radiating a chilling pressure that seemed to envelop everything in the world in holy light.
"Amen, the Lord's judgment has come."
Amen...
One by one, the saints behind him prostrated themselves, their faces filled with devout prayer, their eyes brimming with awe and fervor for the Lord.
The sudden holy light illuminated the sky, naturally attracting the attention of everyone present.
"Holy light? It's that foreigner!" someone exclaimed in surprise, instinctively shielding their eyes from the blinding light.
The light, brimming with energy, was so dazzling that no one dared to look directly at it.
“Just as I suspected, I knew the outsiders hadn’t left.” Another person chimed in with certainty.
Having completed all these preparations, Antonio completely ignored all the awakened beings in front of him, stretched out a finger towards the Dragon Vein from afar, and coldly uttered a seductive melody:
"Judgment!"
The orbs of light and golden script that emerged from the pages of the book instantly merged into one, transforming into a white guillotine that, with a world-destroying aura, slashed straight at the dragon vein.
Just then, Li Yu, who had been watching the battle from the observation deck, suddenly felt an inexplicable pressure coming towards him.
This pressure did not come from the confrontation with the large formation in front of them, but from an indescribable sense of danger emanating from afar.
Li Yu frowned slightly, looking towards the center of the battlefield from which the pressure was emanating, and was surprised to find that the source of this threat was actually Antonio.
"Could this be the power of the Twelve Holy Thrones?" Li Yu wondered to himself, and then began to observe very carefully.
His eyes widened immediately when his gaze fell upon the white guillotine formed from biblical text.
Antonio was able to materialize the holy light into a clear physical form, something he hadn't noticed before.
If the Twelve Holy Seats are indeed, as the Fourth Star Lord Jiang Yue said, the nemesis of the Star Lords, then this is the perfect opportunity to understand the power of the Holy Seats.
The white holy light guillotine that had gathered from the pages of the holy scripture, carrying a terrifying aura, was rapidly approaching the dragon vein like a falling white meteor.
With each step closer, the holy light on the guillotine intensifies.
