Further south, in a swampy area, a terrifying surge of天地 spiritual power erupted.
Another team of human soldiers was besieging a massive red city in the swamp.
Upon closer inspection, the giant city was not constructed from earth and stone but from a type of red ironwood spiritual material, its shape resembling a red bird's nest.
Outside the city, countless intertwined red giant trees grew everywhere.
The city's foundation was formed by countless thick red ironwood roots, entwined together.
Red ironwood, a first-tier spiritual wood. Although only a low-level spiritual wood, its hardness was definitely superior to that of giant rocks. This immortal city was known as Moon Lake City, the smallest of the twelve immortal cities, yet it still covered dozens of miles.
Entirely built from red ironwood, the whole city could be considered a massive magical artifact.
As for why it was called Moon Lake City, it was because this swampy area was once a large lake ten thousand years ago.
At that moment, a golden mist, several miles in size, emerged from the ranks of the human army, accompanied by resounding thuds. The golden mist suddenly split into two giant golden light spheres and began to transform.
Like golden eggs, they burst open, transforming into two hundred-zhang-tall golden giants.
One golden giant held a long golden sword, and with a sudden wave, a dazzling golden light slashed out.
The other golden giant held a golden giant axe, also hacking down with all its might.
The two golden lights crossed in the air, forming a massive golden cross-slash, descending upon Moon Lake City with the force of splitting mountains.
The metallic clang of the attack ripped through the air, and the large expanse of red giant trees surrounding Moon Lake City shattered inch by inch under the golden light.
Seeing that the attack was about to strike Moon Lake City.
A brilliant green spiritual light suddenly erupted from the center of Moon Lake City, and the entire city trembled violently, suddenly rising a dozen zhang into the air.
Then, a series of 'popping' sounds echoed continuously, and a field of green fluorescence lit up in the swamp around Moon Lake City. Under the glow, thick red vines rapidly grew out of the swamp.
Intertwining and tangling together, they formed an equally giant wooden snake. With a loud crash, wood chips flew everywhere, blocking the sharp golden cross-slash.
However, the cultivator army naturally didn't just unleash the attack of two golden giants. Simultaneously with the giants' attacks, a golden cloud transformed into countless golden flying swords, which shot over with a 'swoosh'.
This was a high-level gold-attribute spell, the Golden Sword Technique. But when cast by thousands of cultivators together, the resulting golden swords instantly numbered in the tens of thousands.
The swamp around Moon Lake City was now sprouting even more red vines, which swayed eerily like giant red snakes.
Resisting the numerous attacks.
Before long, dawn broke.
On another part of the Continuous Mountain Range, where vegetation was sparse, lay thousands of large and small stone mountains, stretching across tens of thousands of miles.
Among these peaks, two giant mountains faced each other, resembling two roaring tigers looking up to the sky from a distance.
This was Double Tiger Peak. Atop each stone tiger's head was a hundred-zhang-high stone tower. Beneath the towers, on the tigers' backs, were many buildings.
This was Double Tiger City.
The tops of the two stone towers shone with a bright yellow light, forming a yellow light screen covering an area of hundreds of miles, enveloping Double Tiger Peak.
At this moment, Double Tiger Peak was surrounded by forty to fifty giant battleships, and many flying spirit beasts circled in the sky, unleashing a barrage of attacks.
……
In another part of the Continuous Mountain Range, in a desolate desert area, the sky was cloudless for ten thousand miles, and the ground was a dark purple color, extremely barren.
In a certain area, a solitary mountain ten thousand zhang high stood alone.
Sunlight shone upon it, and the mountain shimmered with a strange golden light. This was because the rocks on the mountain were very smooth, reflecting the sunlight. Jade stones could be seen everywhere in the earth and rocks.
This was not an ordinary peak, but a jade stone mountain containing gold and jade stone mineral veins.
At this moment, a golden cloud gathered at the top of the mountain. Hidden within the cloud was a celestial city in the clouds: Golden Cloud City.
Inside Golden Cloud City, a golden jade pillar several hundred zhang high rose and floated in the sky. It was densely covered with golden spiritual patterns, emitting tens of thousands of golden lights.
These golden lights transformed into diamond-shaped light shields, like mirrors, connected together to protect the entire Golden Cloud City.
At this time, a black cloud, hundreds of miles wide, drifted over from a distance. Even before the black cloud approached, the sound of rushing water could be heard.
The sound of water was enormous, shaking the sky with rumbling sounds.
In a short while, the black cloud approached Golden Cloud City and stopped outside. The black cloud rapidly churned, as if some behemoth was swimming inside.
The entire Golden Cloud City was covered by the black cloud and immediately became somewhat dark.
This scene naturally alarmed the demon residents guarding the city, and the war drums began to thunder.
Immediately afterward, a blue light suddenly lit up in the dark cloud. The black cloud shrunk by a small half and turned into a watery river.
This river seemed to have a life of its own, flowing rapidly and encircling Golden Cloud City.
At the same time, giant black-blue flying boats appeared on the river, gathering human siege cultivators.
Woo… Woo…
At this moment, a long roar echoed, and the water surged, causing a huge wave. A behemoth swam out, riding the wave.
The demon cultivators of Golden Cloud City, upon seeing that behemoth, revealed expressions of horror. Some even fell to the ground on the city wall, cold sweat dripping down their backs.
Woo woo!
Because that behemoth was a thousand zhang long, truly a giant fish.
Upon closer inspection, one could even see a black-robed Daoist standing on the head of the giant fish. This person had white hair and a ruddy complexion, but stared coldly at Golden Cloud City.
"Dongyangzi, so it is you who has come to attack Golden Cloud City. I didn't expect you to bring the Dragon Whale of your Water Spirit Sect. And using the Water Control Flag to create this Heavenly River, truly a grand gesture," At this time, an old voice came from Golden Cloud City.
A yellow light flew out from it, wrapped in an old woman in purple clothes, who also wore many gold and silver jewelry, looking graceful and luxurious.
