Chapter 35: The Arrival of Reinforcements

On the battlefield, thick smoke billowed, and the deafening shouts of killing filled the air. The coalition forces were struggling to hold on, and the situation was extremely critical. Under the fierce and tide - like attacks of the evil forces, the coalition's defense line was teetering on the verge of collapse. The soldiers' faces showed a mixture of fatigue and determination. Although their bodies were covered in wounds, the unyielding fighting spirit still burned in their eyes. They held their positions firmly, using all their strength with every swing of their swords and every casting of their spells, trying to stop the advance of the evil forces. However, the enemy's offensive was too fierce, and loopholes in the defense line gradually emerged, like a tattered net about to be torn apart. The shadow of death loomed over everyone.

Just at this critical moment, an unexpected reinforcement force appeared in everyone's field of vision as if they were heavenly soldiers descending from the sky. It turned out that among the distant mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas, some powerful independent cultivators, upon hearing about the earth - shattering battle between the coalition forces and the evil forces, were deeply touched by the self - sacrificing and justice - defending actions of Lin Yu and others. Some of them came alone, dressed in simple but clean clothes, carrying their unique weapons on their backs, with determination and courage shining in their eyes. Others came in small groups. Although they had no blood relations, they joined forces because of their shared ideals and walked firmly towards the battlefield. These powerful independent cultivators came from different regions. Some emerged from secluded valleys, which had been their pure lands for solitary cultivation. Some rushed from the outskirts of bustling towns, where they honed their skills among the common people. And some appeared near mysterious ancient ruins, exploring the secrets of cultivation in the ancient remains. Their cultivation methods also varied, and each of them had their own unique cultivation techniques and combat skills.

Each of these powerful independent cultivators was extraordinary. Their arrival seemed to bring a new light of hope to this desperate battlefield. Among them, some were proficient in water - controlling techniques. Standing tall on the battlefield, they deftly moved their hands to form incantation gestures, and the water vapor around them quickly condensed. In a short while, surging water currents gathered. Controlled by them, these water currents were like agile dragons, transforming into powerful weapons. They either rushed towards the enemy like sharp blades, cutting through the formation of the evil forces, or formed whirlpools to draw the enemy in, making them immobile. Some were well - versed in the art of taming beasts. Beside them were huge and ferocious beasts. These beasts either had scales as hard as rocks, or sharp claws and teeth, or could spit out powerful elemental forces. Under the command of their masters, they fought in coordination, roaring and pouncing on the enemy, fighting side by side with the coalition soldiers. For a time, the roars of beasts resounded on the battlefield, and the momentum was overwhelming.

Lin Yu, who was in the core command position on the battlefield, saw the arrival of the reinforcements. The tense expression on his face relaxed a little at first, but then he quickly calmed down, with decisiveness and wisdom shining in his eyes. He knew that every decision at this moment was related to the life and death of the coalition forces. So, he began to methodically incorporate these reinforcements into the combat teams. His eyes were sharp as torches, quickly scanning each powerful independent cultivator. Based on their different demonstrated specialties, he assigned tasks precisely and reasonably. He shouted loudly, directing those independent cultivators good at defense to join the already battered defense line. They were to strengthen the defense line and enhance the defensive power of the coalition forces with their unique defensive skills. At the same time, he dispatched those independent cultivators proficient in attack to form elite commando teams. Taking advantage of the brief chaos among the enemy caused by the arrival of the reinforcements, they harassed and launched surprise attacks on the enemy, disrupting their offensive rhythm and making it impossible for them to coordinate their front and rear.

With the effective help of the reinforcements, the coalition forces gradually turned the tide of the battle. The coalition soldiers, who were originally exhausted and demoralized, saw new hope. Their eyes regained their luster, and the strength in their bodies seemed to be re - energized. They launched a fierce counter - attack, charging forward with the momentum of tigers out of their cages, pushing the evil forces back step by step. The coalition soldiers cooperated closely. Those in close - combat brandished their sharp weapons and rushed into the enemy formation like lightning, slashing at the enemy. The long - range attackers cast colorful spells. Elemental forces such as fireballs, ice arrows, and wind blades whistled towards the enemy, exploding in the enemy ranks and causing chaos. Sensing that the situation was unfavorable, fear and panic appeared in the eyes of the evil forces. Realizing that continuing to fight would only lead to greater losses, they chose to retreat again. Their figures fled in a sorry state, discarding their helmets and armor, and losing their previous arrogance.

However, the coalition forces were not carried away by this temporary victory. They knew the truth that evil must be eradicated completely. If they let the evil forces go at this time, it would surely bring endless troubles in the future. So, under Lin Yu's decisive command, the coalition forces pursued the victory. The soldiers were in high spirits, shouting and charging forward, further expanding their victory. They chased the evil forces all the way and drove them out of this war - torn area, temporarily restoring peace to this land and relieving the crisis. However, Lin Yu looked in the direction where the enemy had fled and knew that this was only a temporary victory. The evil forces were still lurking in the dark, eyeing them covetously. The road ahead was still full of hardships and challenges. The coalition forces must continue to enhance their strength and find more allies to completely defeat the evil forces and usher in true peace.
