Chapter 719: Chapter 719 Playing with Fire in Front of Me?_1

Flying Swords and magical treasures soared into the air at Zion Frost’s shout, then with endless radiance and carrying nature’s spiritual energy, they fell from the sky, ruthlessly smashing onto the Aura Barrier.

The light pillars on the Formation instantly blazed more brightly, as a massive amount of Spirit Stones was instantly transformed into spiritual energy, replenishing the firmament above and pouring into the Aura Barrier.

Hector Tate watched this scene, his heart filled with trepidation.

The spectacle was terrifying.

Could they hold on?

Did they really have to fight to the point of no return?

Carson Flores turned his head and shouted, "Brother Hector, counterattack! If we let them bombard us like this, we won’t last long!"

When Hector Tate turned his head, he saw Carson Flores’s eyes fierce with determination, tinged with a hint of ferocity.

A shiver ran through Hector Tate’s heart and the hesitation within vanished in an instant. In that moment, he even had the illusion that if he did not order a counterattack, Carson Flores would stand up, take his place, and command the counterattack!

So be it if we die!

Hector Tate made up his mind and gritted his teeth, "Spirit Stone Cannons, counterattack!"

Hector Tate’s voice echoed through the heavens. The fully charged Spirit Stone Cannons immediately locked onto their respective targets and fired the Spirit Energy Cannonballs.

The Spirit Energy Cannonballs were straightforward—mere balls of spiritual energy—but they possessed immense impact and explosive power. If there had to be a distinctive feature, it was their speed and force!

The Spirit Stone Cannons were similar to the Water-Fire Mirror, a type of magical treasure used after charging. Moreover, the Spirit Stone Cannons were inscribed with countless Rune Arrays, capable of instantly devouring a large number of Spirit Stones and gathering all the spiritual energy together for a heavy blow to the enemy.

The cultivators who were frantically attacking the Aura Barrier in the sky had never expected the seemingly weak White Wave City to dare counterattack with Spirit Stone Cannons. Weren’t they afraid that once their own forces breached the city, no survivors would be spared?

The Spirit Energy Cannonballs didn’t slow down a bit because of their shock. Dozens of Spirit Stone Cannons fired simultaneously, and within moments, a handful of Spirit Energy Cannonballs surged into the firmament, each targeting its own mark.

"Boom!"

Amidst the violent explosions, some fell from the sky, and blood rained down.

Caught off-guard, this round of Spirit Energy Cannonballs immediately killed two Golden Core cultivators and a Nascent Soul cultivator spewed blood, his body drenched in blood from severe injuries.

Zion Frost’s face turned uglier in anger, "You are truly audacious to the extreme. I will slaughter every single one of you involved in the battle. The moment the Aura Barrier shatters will be the time of your demise!"

Hector Tate’s complexion turned paler by several shades, but the resolve in his eyes only grew firmer.

"Hold on! Just ten days, and the City Lord will awaken. If we can last ten days, there will be no problems. If you want to survive, hold on!"

The cultivators of White Wave City participating in the defense all heard Zion Frost’s words, and each became more determined, exerting more effort to maintain the Array’s operation and to control the Spirit Stone Cannons.

"Boom, boom!"

Another round of bombardment from the Spirit Stone Cannons ensued. This time, no one was injured, but everyone in unison flew a good distance away from the Aura Barrier in the sky, no longer daring to unleash their attacks so close to it.

Once the distance opened up, their magical treasures, Flying Swords, and Spells all weakened significantly upon impacting the city’s barrier, reducing the pressure by a substantial amount.

Hector Tate instructed someone beside him, "Pass the order down, groups of Spirit Stone Cannons working in tandem should focus fire on anyone who approaches—don’t scatter shots. If it’s too far, don’t fire wildly, try to conserve Spirit Stones!"

In the sky, Zion Frost looked extremely displeased.

After all, he was a Mid-Stage Divinity Transformation cultivator, but now he was kept outside the barrier. He had bragged so much, yet his subordinates had died, two of them Golden Core Stage cultivators. His face was losing face.

He took a glance and knew letting his men get closer posed a danger. He then turned and ordered, "Everyone, cast your Spells, burn them relentlessly. Let’s see how many Spirit Stones they can deplete!"

The crowd immediately dispersed in a wide circle and began casting their fire Spells.

Blazing flames appeared in the sky. They seemed alive as they fell and hit the barrier, burning fiercely.

Hector Tate’s face showed great distress, "This is the Holy Fire Sect’s signature skill, Spiritual Fire, which uses spiritual energy as fuel and burns at extremely high temperatures, resulting in devastating destructive power. It is said that if Spiritual Fire covers an area, even steel would be instantly reduced to liquid. By clinging to the surface of the Aura Barrier, they rapidly deplete the barrier’s energy. If we can’t replenish in time, the Aura Barrier will break, and they will seize the opportunity to break through..."

Carson Flores turned to him, "Give me a Token that allows free entry through the Aura Barrier."

Hector Tate was shocked, "Brother Carson, you want to go out?"

Carson Flores nodded, "I shall handle those flames outside. Otherwise, we will always be at a disadvantage, which is too costly."

Hector Tate warned, "Those flames are fueled by spiritual energy and are extremely tough to deal with. The Holy Fire Sect is named after the Spiritual Fire, their spectacular expertise. It’s not an ordinary flame that can be extinguished on a whim. What’s more, there are so many out there guarding, won’t you be walking into certain death by going outside?"

Carson Flores smiled slightly, "The Holy Fire Sect, upon facing me, is set to suffer..."
