Chapter 1264: Troops at the City’s Gates

The Nine-Turn Golden Needle Acupoint Puncture Technique allowed Wind Chime to elevate her strength by an entire level as she wished!
On the battlefield, the sound of the zither seemed to rise in pitch instantly, becoming more resounding, intense, and sharp. Under the horrified gazes of countless members of the Wild Wolf Organization, the sound blades gathered in the air suddenly solidified into thin white blades filled with icy coldness. They emitted layers of piercing light in the air, forming a river of light composed of dim, cold beams that rushed down at the crowd with even more domineering force.
“Damn!”
“Be careful!!”
Those standing beneath the river of light felt extremely threatened, as if steel knives were crawling around them, ready to slice them to pieces at any moment. Their movements became cautious.
With the momentum diminished and their minds distracted, many Persian players were instantly killed by the experts from the Splendid Lands and the Brotherhood of Chivalry.
However, soon after, more people let out screams.
They realized that these countless sharper and more ferocious blades were not aimed at ordinary players. The river of light blades swept over the heads of the members of the Splendid Lands and the Brotherhood of Chivalry before splitting into numerous astonishingly powerful “tributaries” that rushed toward the top experts of the Wild Wolf Organization.
By the time the many Wild Wolf experts realized what was happening, it was already too late to dodge or block.
The sound blades, enhanced by the Nine-Turn Golden Needle Acupoint Puncture Technique, were even faster than before. Like attacks launched by experts at the late mythic realm, they carried greater lethality, making it impossible to dodge among the crowd.
Thud! Thud-thud-thud-thud!
With continuous sounds of bodies being pierced, screams rang out one after another. Dozens of top Wild Wolf Organization experts were instantly cut to pieces by these terrifying sound blades as they rushed into battle. With expressions of disbelief and horror, they knocked down their own comrades, covered in blood, with wounds flying everywhere—a sight too gruesome to bear.
Hundreds of sound blades eliminated dozens of top Wild Wolf Organization experts in an instant. Meanwhile, the remaining sound blades, under Wind Chime’s control, easily cleared out a large area of Persian players. Together with their comrades whose morale had soared, they slaughtered hundreds of people in mere moments.
“Ha!”
“The Zither Demon is mighty!”
“Haha! Kill them!”
“Kill all these bastards!!”
The morale of the Splendid Lands and the Brotherhood of Chivalry, which had just been suppressed by the Evil Emperor, was instantly restored—and even stronger than before.
The Persian players were simply wiped out in an instant; they didn’t even have time to defend themselves before being utterly defeated.

The thin blades of Wind Chime locked onto the positions of each expert from the Wild Wolves gang, enabling precise pursuit and killing! Those targeted by her had almost no chance of escape!
After all, even the sect leader of the Qin Clan, a master of defense, had praised Wind Chime’s initial attacks highly—so one can imagine how powerless a group of players must be in the face of her assaults.
As for Wind Chime herself, facing the overwhelming pressure from the Qin Clan’s leader, she was once driven to the point of bleeding from the eyes and nose, risking her life in a desperate bid. Later, she gained an increase of 100 points in internal energy, along with a boost to her willpower by 1 point and her foundation by 5 points, allowing her strength to improve significantly.
Under the protection of a group of top experts, she faced the forces of the Wild Wolves gang with ease, splitting her sound blades into a dozen or more streams…
It was as if a group of late-stage Mythical Realm experts were attacking simultaneously. Even the strongest members of the Wild Wolves gang found it hard to resist such a swarm of evenly matched opponents, let alone when the attacks came in the form of sound waves, making them even more unbearable.
In an instant, those who usually could stand alone were unable to withstand even one round under Wind Chime’s frenzied attacks, being battered until they were covered in blood and torn to pieces.
In this frenzied state, Wind Chime was more desperate than ever to release the growing power within her!
Whoosh! Whoosh!!
The Heavenly Demon Zither flew above her head, spinning rapidly. Her feet moved like wheels as she moved swiftly, following the rhythm of the zither. Her fingers frantically plucked the strings, her robes fluttering, her long hair flying wildly—like a demon deity.
Clang! Clang!! Clang!!!!
The sound of the zither grew louder wave after wave!
The sound blades continuously gathered in the air and, at lightning speed, surged in all directions like fangs and claws.
Wherever they passed, people fell to the ground!
Faced with the domineering presence of the Zither Demon Wind Chime and the unstoppable momentum of the heroes from the Central Plains, countless people gasped in shock!
Many Persian players, seeing their comrades falling like wheat being cut in areas free of Wild Wolves gang members, grew terrified, hesitating and showing fear on their faces.
Even the members of the Wild Wolves gang felt chills run down their spines at the sight of Wind Chime’s brutal slaughter, becoming hesitant…
“Great killing!”
“Faster!”
“Just charge straight into Shiva City at once!”
“Right!”
Led by the river of sound blades in the air, the troops of the Splendid Lands and the Heroic Alliance were full of morale, rushing forward like a flood, breaking through hundreds of meters of enemy forces with unstoppable force.
In an instant, the battlefield was filled with loud cries of battle!

Tens of thousands of Persian troops were fiercely attacked by this side, with over ten thousand killed; a massive wave surged among the enemy forces…
“Hiss…”
“Are these the people from the Central Plains?”
“Damn it!”
“Are they really that strong?!”
In the minds of countless Persian players, the one playing the zither had already been elevated to the same level as the Evil Emperor.
As the dazzling and piercing sounds of the zither advanced like a giant demonic hand toward Shiva City, many people chose to avoid it, losing their fighting spirit just from hearing the sound.
The members of the Wild Wolves Organization were so frustrated they almost spat blood!
Due to the obstruction by the heroes of the Central Plains and the zither’s long-range killing effect, they had no idea why Wind Chime suddenly became so fierce, as if she had taken some powerful tonic. Their group was torn to pieces before they could even cast the Great Banishment Spell, with corpses scattered everywhere.
The Wild Wolves Organization had always been invincible…
This time, their two thousand troops were utterly defeated by the less powerful thirty thousand troops from the Central Plains. Many who died once returned only to be killed again immediately; those who reached the front line were killed before they could even fight many enemies.
When had the Wild Wolves Organization ever been in such a sorry state?
Many people began to feel wary, and the number of top experts from the Wild Wolves Organization advancing forward gradually decreased…
With fewer people left, how could the Persian players resist the relentless advance of the heroes from the Central Plains?
Soon!
The heroes of the Central Plains reached a distance of less than a mile from Shiva City.
They were at the gates of the city!
Many could even clearly see the faces of the Persian players on the city walls, filled with surprise and excitement.
At that moment, only Xiao Yue, who followed Wind Chime, frowned deeply, staring at the figure of the Evil Emperor, who hadn’t appeared for a long time on the other side, with a hint of concern in his eyes.
