Maiden Of The Splitting Moon Chapter 479

Everyone responded with a shout of unison, marching out of the gate as the first group had cleared up space for them. Most if not all of them were heavily armored, formed to at the very least endure the attacks. 

Du Xiu, Gao Ri lead them out, dressed in their personal armor and wielding their weapons. 

Ming Yue looked back at the lake, staring at it as the surface still rippled from the earlier shock. 

"When the time comes..." she thought. 

The young woman then looked at her two beasts. Hei Yue and Xiao Yin looked at her with worried eyes, whimpering and chirping sadly to her. 

"You two stay in here, I don't want either of you to get hurt, okay?" 

She spoke to them with a soft and tender voice. In this battle, neither of them would be able to help and furthermore, she truly did not want them to get hurt. This encounter is beyond dangerous and to let them join her would risk losing them. 

And although they knew that was what she wanted, neither of them let it happen with some sad cries. 

Even they knew just how dangerous this would be. 

"Don't worry, nothing bad will happen, okay? I'll be fine, so you don't have to worry at all."

She knelt down and hugged them both, wrapping her arms around them gently, coaxing them. It was brief but it was close and warm, calming all three of them. Then she let go and stood up, taking out the Pearlstone Dagger with one hand. One the other was the Zephyr Claws, sharp and ready to tear through anything. Her armor began to shift from the first form to the second, forming her waist armor, pauldrons, and gauntlets. 

She walked out of the gate and took a long look around her. 

The smell of blood was thick and heavy, that metallic scent was so strong that one could almost taste it. Besides that was the fact that the entire battlefield was just completely frozen as everyone had their eyes on the small dot of light. 

"That's it, isn't it? The True Idol of Chaos..." she thought. 

The dot floated in the sky before disappearing. And the next moment, it reappeared just above the Cerulean Fortress, gazing at the barriers that had been placed. 

Now that it was so close, everyone had a clear look at what this Idol of Chaos looked like. Even Nie Xia and Shi Hou, the latter of which looked in both awe and shame. 

"My lord..." he muttered quietly. 

Hovering above that fortress was indeed a figure resembling Kong Zhi but it was no longer that same demon. 

His other arms were gone, any sign of both the Vajra and Stone Demon Bloodline was long gone. His body was pure white and smooth skin, translucent enough to show the pulsating veins within his body. But more importantly, there were no cracks like the last one, in fact, this Idol was still dressed in burnt robes that only covered his lower half. 

And the Idol of Chaos's eyes were unlike anything that anyone has ever seen, even when compared to the previous Idol, its gaze was completely different. 

One was pitch black while the other was pure white, it was calm and vast. You could either gaze into an eternal abyss or an endless light. 

What's more, the presence it had on this battlefield was immense. 

It was some heavy force, not a weight that bore down on everyone but something worse than that. It was a very subtle feeling, dread, and fear. As if this figure should not exist in the realm of Mortals. 

Despite that, they had to fight it, there was no choice.

Du Xiu lowered his halberd, letting it poke the ground. The moment it touched, the ground started to melt as the halberd turned bright white. His armor shifted to its real form as he brought out his full strength from the start. Everyone stepped away from him from then on, no matter how good their armor was they could not risk melting it. But they all followed him, not willing to hold back in this confrontation. 

The Nuwa Clan had long begun preparing for this, gathering and building up their energy. So long as the True Idol of Chaos was weakened, they could finish the job.

Strangle enough it was quiet, this Idol of Chaos was not loud or obnoxious in the slightest. There was no shouting, chanting, not even a peep from this figure. It just continued to stare down before locking onto the tree of the Nuwa Clan. 

Extending a hand outward, it pointed at them. In an instant, a bolt of Primordial Lightning shot down, black and white sparks smashing into the barriers causing cracks to form. In just a few more seconds, they would break. But no one was going to let it happen so easily.

"Kill!"

Du Xiu grabbed his halberd and pulled his arm back, launching it like a fiery meteor at the True Idol. His body glowed as he jumped and flew up after the halberd. 

"Ready the cannons! Switch the cores to Earth cores! Aim at the Idol of Chaos and be ready on my word!"

Meanwhile, the Idol Of Chaos didn't seem to even notice the halberd as it came striking its arm. The weapon could not pierce the Idol's skin, producing a resounding ring as the halberd bounced off. But it succeeded in knocking the Idol back. 

Du Xiu soon came flying, grabbing the halberd by the end of the handle and he swung down like a whip. 

"Sunflare!"

The halberd swung out, leaving a flash of light in its wake as it came down on the Idol of Chaos. But the commander was just getting started. He wasn't going to let it rest for even a second, not even an instant. 

Following him were Ming Yue and Gao Ri, who made up the rest attack force, just the three of them. Out of everyone else, they were the only individuals deemed strong enough to fight this being. And together, they all joined in attacking the Idol. 

The forces below had their own preparations, bringing out formations and other tools to help them. And the cannons were ready, no matter what, they could not give the Idol of Chaos any time to react. 

And whilst all of this was underway, Shi Hou roared out as the entire demon army was reinvigorated by Idol of Chaos. 

"Fight back! What can they do about the Idol of Chaos!"

Shiji Wu shouted out as he stared at Camp Commander Bi, pointing at him and his golems. 

"You can struggle but you'll never win now."

The demon sneered before charging forward, his arm transformed into a rock spike, looking to pierce the Camp Commander's earthen body. The fierce battle restarted with even more intensity and the momentum that the humans had once taken was lost now, pushed back to a standstill. 

Up above, the Idol of Chaos continued to take the punishment that Du Xiu, Ming Yue, and Gao Ri were giving out. 

"Retreat!" 

Du Xiu shouted out and the trio backed off. 

But the next moment, the ground beneath them glowed and trembled as a formation appeared. Vines and stone shot out from below and surrounded the Idol in a cage, forcing it up high into the skies where nothing was around. 

And then, Zi Jing made his command.

"Fire!" 

And all thirty cannons burst to life, shooting out rays of emerald energy that flew up. They all merged together into one attack that hit the cage, forcing it to burst and creating a massive explosion of energy. It was powerful enough to even force the clouds apart. 

But despite all of that power, no one was sure if all of that effort was worth it.
