The commander from the Heavenly Sky Kingdom had not expected for things to actually escalate to the point that it had and even prepared to leave the border and return back to the capital.
But seeing the giant spear made of ice moving towards him, he could not help but feel a little hopeless.
Why did the Azure Sky Kingdom want to continue their attack on them? Were they not afraid that some of their neighbours might take advantage of the situation and attack them when they found out that the Azure Sky Kingdom had moved a large part of their experts to attack the Heavenly Sky Kingdom?
The commander did not understand this, but he knew that if he did not defend against the giant ice spear in front of him, he would end up being heavily injured or maybe even lose his physical body all together… Severing his future path in cultivation!
So, as the giant spear made of ice moved towards him, the commander executed his movement technique once again in an attempt to dodge the incoming attack launched towards him by the man dressed in a light blue robe.
The man saw the move by the commander but paid it no mind as the giant ice spear that was moving in the direction of the place that the commander had been a moment ago, changed direction mid-air, following after the commander when he moved to the side in an attempt to dodge the giant ice spear.
"Wha-!" The commander could not help but let out a slight exclamation of surprise as he saw the giant ice spear following after him and appearing directly in front of him.
Circulating his cultivation base to the maximum, his qi gathered together at the centre of his dantian before erupting outwards like a raging current that soon took the shape of a giant wall adorned with the crest of the Heavenly Sky Kingdom's royal family in front of the commander.
What followed was the sight of a giant spear made of ice directly crashing into the giant wall hastily constructed by the commander in an attempt to block the giant ice spear.
The clash did not end here as the giant ice spear continued to drill its way into the giant wall made by the commander, giving him no choice but to supply his qi in an attempt to prevent the wall holding back the ice spear from breaking.
"Hmph!" Seeing that the situation did not go as planned, the man dressed in a light blue robe frowned and drew a few more runic symbols in the air that flew forward and landed on the ice spear, causing the ice spear to strengthen even further.
Spitting out a mouthful of blood upon feeling the sudden increased qi consumption from the wall between him and the ice spear, the commander felt that his chances of getting out alive from his current situation was getting slimer and slimer with each passing moment.
At the same time, he also felt the amount of qi available to him decreased faster and faster with each passing moment that the ice spear attacked the wall in front of him.
The only thing he could do was hope that his opponent would run out of qi or give up the attack, but this seemed like nothing more than a dream when he turned and looked at the light blue robbed man looking more annoyed than exhausted at the current situation.
"That's the commander over there! But he is currently fighting against someone, looks like the ones sent over by the Azure Sky Kingdom are already decided to attack…" Wang Lan fearfully looked over as he observed the commander spit out blood while trying his best to defend against a giant spear made of ice.
Even observing from the battle from afar, the terrifying might of the giant ice spear and wall clashing against each other caused the earth to tremble and crack as anything standing within a few hundred meters had already collapsed from the shockwave the giant ice spear and wall generated when they first clashed with each other.
A little farther away from the main battle where the commander and the light blue robed man clashed with each other, the two men dressed like soldiers that normally followed the commander were desperately trying their best to hold on as four Nascent Soul Realm Experts from the Azure Sky Kingdom tried their best to kill them as quickly as possible.
"I think we should go and help those two, the commander's enemy is at least at the sixth stage of the Nascent Soul Realm and getting involved in their fight will not be a good idea before we deal with the other experts from the Azure Sky Kingdom…" Observing the two battles happening in front of him, Wang Hu clearly knew that the enemy of the commander was not someone they could deal with.
Helping out the other Nascent Soul Realm Experts from the Heavenly Sky Kingdom before grouping up together with them to help the commander, was by far a better plan plan he could come up with.
Having said that, the commander still had to hold on for long enough for them to finish dealing with the four Nascent Soul Realm Experts on the side of the Azure Sky Kingdom…
"Hah… There is nothing more we can do, if the commander can't hold on, we will escape immediately!" Shaking his head, a bit when he looked over at the commander defending against the giant ice spear slowly weakening the defensive set up by him, Wang Hu informed his brother before both of them moved over in the direction of the two Nascent Soul Realm Experts from the Heavenly Sky Kingdoms side and the four from the Azure Sky Kingdom.
Upon arriving at the scene, Wang Hu and Wang Lan worked quickly and launched two swift attacks towards one of the Nascent Soul Realm Experts from the Azure Sky Kingdoms side that was standing on the side observing the situation, preparing for a chance to move in and launch a deadly attack on one of the two Experts from the Heavenly Sky Kingdom.
"Wha-" Letting out a panicked voice as he saw Wang Hu and Wang Lan suddenly appearing before both sent an attack in his direction
The Expert from the Azure Sky Kingdom barely managed to block the first attack before the second arrived in front of him.
The second attack came from a completely different direction compared to the first and he didn't have enough time to defend against it!
"Argh!" Letting out a shriek of pain as the attack hit him, the Expert from the Azure Sky Kingdoms side frantically retreated in the direction of his allies, who by now abandoned their earlier fight with the two soldiers to come help their friend.
Wang Lan and Wang Hu did not take this opportunity to keep attacking the now injured Expert from the Azure Sky Kingdoms side.
Instead, they quickly retreated as a large fist made of ice formed in the air and smashed down at the location, they were standing a moment ago.
The giant ice fist hit the ground causing it to shatter into pieces before showering the surroundings, piercing through anything within a hundred-meter distance.
Wang Lan and Wang Hu barely manged to react in time and make it out of the area that the shattered ice pieces could reach, but the Expert that they injured was not so lucky as a few of ice pieces from the ice fist directly pierced into him, causing his condition to grow even worse…
