I am a living immortal.

Chapter 534 Kill! Kill! Kill

"Ring the Wanling Bell!!!" This shout seemed to exhaust all his strength. As he finished speaking, the expression of the person beside him changed instantly. He turned and disappeared in a shadow. This unhesitating scene was not just a sign of trust in Wang Yang, but also a sign of the importance he attached to all warnings—even a mistake was better than being caught off guard.

This is the law of survival. It is better to mobilize the troops than to slack off. Moreover, the entire population of Sishui City is a soldier, so there will be no panic in such a situation.

Every five hundred meters along the walls of Sishui City stood a bell tower, known as the Wanling Bell. The Wanling Bell tolled, a long warning. Whenever the bell rang, regardless of whether it was real or fake, everyone must prepare for battle. From the city elders to the common people, this was the trombone of war.

"Dong!" With one ring, thousands of bells rang out simultaneously. The Wanling Bells were interconnected; once struck, all the bells dotted along the city walls rang out simultaneously. This ringing echoed throughout the city of Sishui. "Dong! Dong! Dong!" the sounds were rapid and melodious.

The tense atmosphere was tense and tense. Everyone instinctively looked up, and then, as usual, long swords were drawn from their sheaths, from tables and waists—everyone in Sishui City carried weapons. Some even donned armor. In an instant, everyone was fully armed.

Meanwhile, several figures streaked across the sky, flying from all directions to the top of the city wall. They were the elders stationed in various locations throughout the city, their faces solemn as they reached the top of the city wall at top speed.

Wang Yang was also ready for battle. The city walls were already equipped with armor and swords. As a highly sought-after talent, Wang Yang even possessed a ring-shaped space. His fiery red armor was engraved with formations and seal characters, and several suspended components hummed at his sides, ready to strike.

The elders were also dressed in this manner. Compared to the flowing white robes of the treasured garments, this armored to the teeth was truly prepared for a bloody battle. It wasn't that the treasured garments were bad, it was just that the habits were different. The only defense of the treasured garments was the magic attached to them, but armor was different; it had its own inherent defense.

This was a defense in preparation for the eventual failure of the formation and depletion of spiritual energy. This armor itself was capable of withstanding significant damage, unlike the treasured robe, which, after its magic had reached its limit, offered no defense at all. They intended to fight to the bitter end, so armor was clearly more appropriate.

Of course, before a powerful attack, armor and precious clothing were practically indistinguishable. But that was almost. Even if there was a one in ten thousand chance of survival, one had to try. What if? Even that tiny difference could mean the difference between life and death. This was a rigorous approach, honed by the experience accumulated through countless battles.

Experience gained in exchange for their souls. Everyone was on high alert. They all hoped it was a false alarm, a misunderstanding. However, things often go against one's wishes. Wang Yang could see that it was no accident. He knew it when the elders prepared to attack.

Furthermore, the ground outside Sishui City was already shaking. They didn't know the identity of the demon that had arrived, but it certainly wasn't a formidable force. Those atop the city walls could already feel the ground shaking. The earth cracked, and a behemoth far larger than any ordinary demon beast emerged from the ground. It was a gigantic crustacean, with an earthy yellow shell, thick limbs, and terrifying claws.

A long, dragon-like body. No, the ochre-colored hue wasn't a shell, but rather pairs of folded wings. As the behemoth emerged from the earth, its massive wings fully extended. Sand fell like quicksand. Its lizard-like head was covered in scales, its crimson compound eyes filled with brutality. It roared to the heavens, its sharp teeth and corrosive saliva betraying the beast's terrifying power.

"Roar!" A deafening roar spread. Countless demonic beasts responded. Countless demonic beasts emerged from cracks in the ground. Driven by their roars, they charged towards Sishui City. The behemoth flapped its wings, stirring up a fierce wind, and slowly soared into the air.

Atop his head stood a humanoid creature. Only then did Wang Yang see its true form. It was a great demon with antlers atop its head, clad in a wide-sleeved feathered robe. The golden feathers shimmered in the sunlight. At the center of the antlers hovered a multifaceted sieve, each facet of which radiated a shimmering green light.

The great demon stood atop the massive beast, its hands clasped, its eyes fixed coldly on the city of Sishui. But what puzzled Wang Yang was that despite the indifference in its eyes, he could still detect a hint of sadness in its expression. He didn't know if it was an illusion. He dismissed the strange thoughts in his mind. What he really needed to do now was to deal with this surging tide of beasts.

Wang Yang hadn't imagined that war would break out so quickly. On such an ordinary day, in such an ordinary timeframe, Sishui City once again faced a crisis that could destroy it.

An old voice beside him asked, "Are you scared?"

"No!" Wang Yang responded firmly and resolutely to his master. Yes, the person standing next to him was his master. But at this moment, they were comrades.

"Well done! Then let me see. Let your blade slit the monster's throat, and bathe in its blood to offer myself a unique coming-of-age ceremony!"

"My fellow tribesmen!! Are you afraid?!" the old man standing in the front asked!

"No!!!" Thousands of voices responded.

"Alright! Then let these beasts see the courage of the men of Sishui City. Follow me, kill them!!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!..." As the drums roared, thousands of figures leaped from the city walls without hesitation. They would defend their city-state with swords and knives, and they would rebuild their unyielding faith with blood and fire.

“Woo woo woo~~”

“Woo woo woo~~”

Beneath the war drums is the sound of ancient horns.

Charge, charge!

The people wearing armor and holding long swords collided with the monsters.

At the same time, in Sishui City, the Wanling Bell rang nine times, signaling the start of war. No one panicked. Teams of guards appeared on the streets. Among them were fathers and sons. They would march to the city walls, forming a defensive line. Others would stand by at all times.

The elderly and children were escorted to the secret passages. There were no cries, no reluctance, only determination. Those who remained in the city awaited orders. First the young, then the middle-aged, then the teenagers; first the men, then the women. Their wills united at this moment. They would fight to the bitter end, to the bitter end.
