Chapter 204: A Tragic and Fierce Battle

Everyone has a different definition of love.

Some fall in love at first sight, willing to devote the rest of their lives because of a fleeting glance; some support each other in daily life, developing feelings over the passage of time; and some accompany each other through the lowest points, unable to part after weathering storms together.

But Gu Le's love was more realistic.

She admired strength; she would only truly appreciate those who stood at the Peak and possessed the ability to change the era.

This was nothing to be ashamed of; the weak looking up to the strong is an instinct of life.

And an existence like Yang Fan was worthy of her pursuit.

On the other side, Sima Bang was already flushed with excitement, wishing he could stand up immediately and cheer for Yang Fan.

One must know that within the Sima Family, he and Ma Huainan were still in a competitive relationship.

Now, seeing the other party being suppressed, he felt so exhilarated that his scalp tingled.

But thinking that he was, after all, a member of the Sima Family, he could only force himself to suppress this impulse.

"Brother Yang is awesome, this is so damn satisfying!" Sima Bang laughed in his heart.

High above in the sky, Ma Huainan's gaze was locked firmly onto Yang Fan.

He didn't even realize that his back was already thoroughly drenched in cold sweat at this moment.

Facing Yang Fan's terrifying lineup, for the first time, he felt unease.

At this moment, he no longer had his previous composure and smugness.

Even if his believers possessed the Martial God Body, he still had no absolute certainty of winning this battle.

The war god codex; he could not afford to lose it!

Without the support of this core building, the overall development speed of his Divine Kingdom would decrease by at least thirty to forty percent.

"Brother Yang… you really hid your strength well." Ma Huainan's voice was low, his expression ugly.

"Likewise." Yang Fan sneered, "Facing such a supreme treasure as the war god codex, I naturally have to give it my all."

The other party already harbored hostility toward him, and in the face of a supreme treasure like the war god codex, Yang Fan could not give up, even if it meant forging a deadly feud with a peerless prodigy.

"Do you really think you have me cornered?" Ma Huainan snorted coldly, his eyes gradually turning icy.

"As we both have SS-grade talents, do you know why combat-type talents are more favored by major Families? Today, I will let you know the power of the Martial God Body!"

As his voice fell, Ma Huainan's consciousness instantly connected to the war-type intelligent life within the Divine Kingdom Simulation Battle.

The next moment, both armies moved simultaneously.

Countless Flying Swords, spiritual light, Qi and blood, and artillery fire rose into the sky simultaneously, and the entire battlefield instantly fell into chaos.

In Yang Fan's camp, a large number of Foundation Establishment Cultivators formed hand seals simultaneously, and rain of fire, thunder, and ice spears filled the sky, crashing down like a natural disaster.

However, in the next second, a shocking scene appeared.

A believer of Ma Huainan at the Wu Tu Realm actually charged out, bearing the flames, his entire body's Qi and blood rising to the sky like wolf smoke.

Boom!

The Spell that was originally enough to severely injure a Foundation Establishment Cultivator was forcibly shattered by that violent Qi and blood!

At the same time, hundreds of Flying Swords pierced down.

Pfft!

A Martial Apprentice had his chest pierced through by a Flying Sword, but as if he couldn't feel the pain, he reached out his hands to grab the Flying Sword tightly, his muscles writhing madly.

Blood flowed continuously along the sword blade, and the next moment, the Martial Apprentice roared and, relying on his Physical Body strength, forcibly pulled the Flying Sword out of his body!

Then he fiercely crushed it!

This scene made countless people's scalps tingle.

"Is this the Martial God Body?"

"That's too monstrous!"

The geniuses watching from the outside all changed their expressions.

"A Wu Tu Realm resisting Foundation Establishment Spells head-on? This Physical Body is already comparable to a Martial Master!"

"No wonder combat-type SS-grade talents are so valued."

"They really are two monsters…"

On the battlefield, the first wave of tentative exchanges ended, and Yang Fan's army had not gained the slightest advantage.

Seeing this, even a trace of surprise flashed in Yang Fan's eyes.

As expected of a Genius who could be evaluated as a peerless prodigy.

In this battle, Yang Fan also felt the pressure.

His Divine Kingdom had already experienced quite a few Divine Kingdom Wars, but the believers of those Alien Demi-gods did not have many special means at all.

Relying on the advantages of military Formations and weapons, he basically swept through everything.

However, right now, just after the first round of tentative exchanges, his army was unable to suppress the opponent.

"Martial God Body…" Yang Fan's gaze narrowed slightly.

Just then, Yang Wu made another move.

"Everyone, listen to my orders!"

"Ten Palaces Yama Array, rise!"

Boom!!!

With Yang Wu's order given, the entire battlefield changed instantly.

A large number of Cultivation believers retreated rapidly, while the Martial Arts legion pressed forward, bearing the pressure.

At the same time, countless intelligent life shuttled at high speed across the battlefield, and spiritual energy links began to connect the entire military Formation.

At this moment, the one hundred million believers under Yang Fan seemed to have truly transformed into a single whole.

"Spirit Tortoise Life-Protecting Formation!"

Hum—

A large swath of cyan light curtain rose, and in addition to the defense of the Formation itself, first-class Intelligent Weapons simultaneously deployed defensive modes.

Shields and spiritual energy barriers were activated simultaneously.

The opponent's originally extremely violent Qi and blood charge was actually forcibly blocked.

The next second, the Ten Palaces Yama Array underwent changes.

The Intelligent Weapons worn by those believers locked onto targets simultaneously.

[Target lock complete]

[Enemy military Formation weak areas marked!]

As the intelligent life continuously analyzed the battlefield.

Yang Wu's command also completely displayed its terrifying nature.

"Left flank Martial Arts legion, press forward!"

"Cultivation legion, retreat!"

"Spiritual energy cannons, cover the enemy's right flank!"

"Intelligent Weapons, cut off the enemy's military Formation connection!"

Orders were issued one after another.

The entire battlefield began to be split up bit by bit by Yang Wu.

A large number of Intelligent Weapons seemed to come alive, defending on one side while transforming into artillery turrets to attack on the other.

Cultivation believers took the opportunity to bomb madly; thunder and fire filled the sky, constantly falling, and the entire battlefield was like the end of the world.

Even so, those believers under Ma Huainan who possessed the Martial God Body were still terrifyingly tough.

Even if their bodies were broken, even if half their bodies were blown apart, they could still continue to fight, relying on their terrifying Qi and blood.

Many believers even became more violent in their Qi and blood under desperate circumstances, forcibly dragging Yang Fan's believers down with them.

If it weren't for the Martial Arts believers holding up under immense pressure at the front, the powerful defensive capabilities of the Intelligent Weapons, and the Spirit Tortoise Life-Protecting Formation at the grandmaster realm.

Yang Fan dared not imagine how this war would have turned out!

This battle was tragic to the extreme.

Many geniuses watching from the outside were already completely stunned.

"As expected of a peerless prodigy… simply monstrous to the extreme."

"I'm already a senior, and compared to them, I'm completely not on the same level."

"It's truly absurd; I thought it would be a steamroll, but I didn't expect it to be a battle between dragons and tigers!"

"The Martial God Body is indeed terrifying, but it's a pity that Ma Huainan's believers' equipment and mastery of Formations are clearly inferior to Yang Fan's."

"The Mechanical Route is still powerful in Divine Kingdoms of the same level, but it's a pity it consumes too many resources."

"The war god codex is worth a hundred billion divinity points! Gambling does so much harm! After today, Ma Huainan's position in the Sima Family will likely be precarious."

Many people with true discernment could already see at this moment that Ma Huainan had begun to fall into a disadvantage.
