Chapter 538: Reinforcements have arrived!
Whether it was the Saint Realm experts of the Canglan World or the Heavenly Gods of the alien races, they all integrated their immense power within themselves, capable of grasping the sun and moon, plucking stars, traversing the Universe with their physical bodies, and shifting stars with a single step—everything that for a Mortal would only exist in legends, they could easily achieve.
Every strand of hair, every drop of blood, every cell on their bodies contained vast, surging power, and when their strengths were not vastly different, a single battle could last for hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years without a clear victor.
The immense power, coupled with constant replenishment, was enough to sustain their endless battles.
Therefore, in an evenly matched battle, if neither side voluntarily ceased fighting, no one knew how long it would take to determine a winner.
If he had encountered other Early Stage High-level Heavenly Gods, Great Saint Zhuguang was confident he could stop them without relying on the Twin Boundary Battlefield's Formations, thus needing no reinforcements.
However, Heavenly God Shuizhu was of the Twin Race, capable of splitting into an identical body with the same strength, and with perfect coordination, could unleash various incredible abilities. He was destined not to be able to hold out indefinitely, but with the Formations, lasting a few years was not an issue.
Now that the Supreme Experts were conscripting for the Canglan World, he believed the Domain Lord would soon arrange suitable candidates to help him.
However, Great Saint Zhuguang still harbored some hidden worries: since he could receive help, the alien race would certainly also receive reinforcements.
Now, it was a race to see who would be faster.
The Twin Boundary Battlefield was an alien race's Formation, and he alone could not fully activate it; it would require another Great Saint or several more Saint Kings to unleash its full power.
Boom!
The long spear, carrying a bright light, once again collided with the Heavenly River, and violent fluctuations spread far into the dark Void Realm.
"The Twin Race is indeed terrifying; her other body hasn't even made a move yet!"
On the Twin Boundary Battlefield, two other pairs of eyes were watching this battle.
They were two Early Stage Saint Kings, located on two separate continents of the battlefield, each controlling an important Formation hub, assisting Great Saint Zhuguang in mobilizing the power of the grand Formation to fight Heavenly God Shuizhu.
One was an old man with fiery red hair, wearing a fire-patterned robe, named Saint King Chiyan.
The other was an old man in green robes with white hair and beard, named Saint King Qingxu.
Both were Early Stage Saint King cultivators, separated by hundreds of millions of kilometers, communicating in real-time via transmission tokens.
"If Great Saint Mosha were here, how would Shuizhu dare to invade!"
Saint King Chiyan's red hair fluttered as he gazed at the distant battle and spoke.
"Great Saint Mosha needs to guard a more important battlefield; we cannot expect him to come and help."
Saint King Qingxu sighed.
The Twin Boundary Battlefield was conquered entirely thanks to Great Saint Mosha.
Great Saint Mosha's cultivation had reached the Peak, making him the second-ranked Great Saint in the East Profound Domain, with a formidable reputation. If he were guarding the Twin Boundary Battlefield, Heavenly God Shuizhu would certainly not dare to make a move.
However, attacking a battlefield is different from guarding one. A top-tier combatant like Great Saint Mosha would be overkill for guarding this kind of battlefield; one Great Saint coupled with two Saint Kings is sufficient to guard the Twin Boundary Battlefield.
Under normal circumstances, with Great Saint Zhuguang guarding, assisted by Saint King Chiyan and Saint King Qingxu, it would be impossible for an Early Stage High-level Heavenly God of the alien race to reclaim the Twin Boundary Battlefield, even if two Early Stage High-level Heavenly Gods came, they couldn't do it.
But Heavenly God Shuizhu was an exception, or more precisely, an Early Stage High-level Heavenly God of the Twin Race was an exception.
The innate Divine Ability of the Twin Race was an extremely abnormal existence, even within the entire alien race.
The ability to split into an identical body with the same strength was something only this one race could achieve, whether in the Canglan World or among the alien races.
In fact, because this innate Divine Ability was so abnormal, the Twin Race found it extremely difficult to reproduce, resulting in very few members.
The Twin Boundary Battlefield, as the cornerstone of the alien race's grand Formation, was specifically designed at its creation to complement the Twin Race's innate Divine Ability. Before it was conquered by Great Saint Mosha, it was controlled by a High-level Heavenly God of the Twin Race.
Heavenly God Shuizhu, relying on her innate Divine Ability, could split into two bodies, with one mind and one soul, achieving a state of ultimate perfect coordination. Conquering the Twin Boundary Battlefield was only a matter of time.
"We can't temporarily sense her other body, but it's definitely waiting for an opportunity. We must not be careless and must hold out until reinforcements arrive."
Saint King Qingxu said.
"I wonder who the Domain Lord will send as reinforcements. I hope it's a Great Saint skilled in killing. If we can slay Shuizhu here, that would be a huge gain!"
Saint King Chiyan said.
The Twin Race is an extremely powerful and troublesome alien race. Although their numbers are small, killing one is incredibly difficult, and the Twin Race poses a huge threat to the strong cultivators of the Canglan World.
To kill a Twin Race member, even experts one or two stages higher than them would need to make thorough preparations in advance to have any hope.
If the killing of an Early Stage High-level Heavenly God of the Twin Race could be ensured, even a Quasi-Emperor personally making a move would be worthwhile.
Unfortunately, Quasi-Emperors generally have more important tasks, and the probability of them specifically coming to kill an Early Stage High-level Heavenly God of the Twin Race is very small.
"It's too difficult to kill Shuizhu. From the Domain Lord's perspective, they will most likely only send more people to help us out of this predicament and strengthen our defenses, rather than wasting extra power to deal with a High-level Heavenly God of the Twin Race."
Saint King Qingxu said. Anyone who had spent time at the Boundary Pass knew how difficult it was to kill a Twin Race member.
The Twin Boundary Battlefield was tailor-made according to the Twin Race's innate Divine Ability. Although the Canglan World side had conquered it, they had never unleashed its full power.
To unleash a bit more of its power, the most basic method had to be used—increasing manpower.
Two Early Stage Great Saints, plus five or six Early Stage Saint Kings, would be enough to allow the Twin Boundary Battlefield to unleash its due power.
With such a lineup, assisted by the Formations, they could resist a Middle Stage Great Saint, but killing Heavenly God Shuizhu would be absolutely impossible.
Even three Early Stage Great Saints working together would have an extremely low probability.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The collision between Great Saint Zhuguang and Heavenly God Shuizhu continued.
Saint King Chiyan and Saint King Qingxu could only control the Formation hubs they were responsible for, preventing Heavenly God Shuizhu from easily breaking through. No one knew how long this battle could last.
Ten days later.
Boom!!!
Water currents, like a Heavenly River, crashed against the grand Formation.
"Finally out!"
Great Saint Zhuguang, who had just collided with Heavenly God Shuizhu, narrowed his eyes. Heavenly God Shuizhu's other body finally appeared on the other side of the Twin Boundary Battlefield.
It was still an enchanting body condensed from water, with no difference in appearance, form, or the aura fluctuations it emitted, as if it had been perfectly replicated.
"Hold on!"
Saint King Chiyan and Saint King Qingxu's expressions instantly became solemn; they could clearly feel the pressure on controlling the grand Formation surge.
What came next was the most crucial part: whether they could hold out until reinforcements arrived depended on how long they could last.
"If you run now, you might still have a chance to survive."
Heavenly God Shuizhu once again manipulated the surging Heavenly River to attack Great Saint Zhuguang.
"You should first consider whether you can return alive this time!"
Great Saint Zhuguang held his spear and met the attack.
"Hehe!"
Heavenly God Shuizhu sneered, and her two bodies launched a pincer attack simultaneously.
Even with the aid of the Formation's power, Great Saint Zhuguang was still beaten back, retreating steadily, only able to parry without any chance to counterattack, and was even forced back into the Formation multiple times.
But as soon as Great Saint Zhuguang retreated into the Formation, Heavenly God Shuizhu attacked the Formation barrier, causing the grand Formation to sway precariously.
Just as it seemed unable to withstand the assault, Great Saint Zhuguang had no choice but to take up his spear and re-engage in battle.
This style of fighting continued to cycle as time passed.
Twenty days later.
Boom!
A violent energy collision sent Great Saint Zhuguang flying back into the Formation.
"I still underestimated this guy. At this rate, even holding out for a year will be difficult!"
Great Saint Zhuguang held his long spear, feeling a surge of Qi and blood within his body. Without the support of the Formation's power, he might have already died at the hands of Heavenly God Shuizhu.
Only by fighting her personally could one understand the terror of the Twin Race.
Boom!!!
Several Heavenly River currents impacted the Formation barrier, making the grand Formation teeter.
Saint King Chiyan and Saint King Qingxu's faces were pale, feeling somewhat unable to sustain it.
"Can we really hold out until reinforcements arrive?"
Both of them felt a degree of anxiety.
If the grand Formation were broken, they would be the first to die.
Buzz!
A dazzling light suddenly illuminated the Void Realm, and a great sun rapidly flew from a distance, directly smashing towards Heavenly God Shuizhu.
"Hmm?!"
Heavenly God Shuizhu manipulated several Heavenly River torrents to meet the great sun.
Boom!!!
Violent energy shockwaves spread in all directions, with terrifying power capable of pulverizing countless planets.
"Reinforcements have arrived!"
Saint King Chiyan and Saint King Qingxu immediately rejoiced.
Great Saint Zhuguang also instantly cast his gaze in that direction.
In the dark Void Realm, six figures were rapidly approaching.
"Only one Great Saint?"
However, upon sensing the aura fluctuations of the six individuals, Great Saint Zhuguang, Saint King Chiyan, and Saint King Qingxu were all stunned.
