Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

Chapter 1272: Turning The Tables!

Luckily William planted tons of formations all over the underground city and portal. So, when the third wave arrived, it was literally impossible to keep them in check at the underground city alone. And the leading masters had to use the formations surrounding the portal area.

This was quite risky, as William stressed upon not using these formations until it was desperate. And it indeed was!

If they didn't do that, the coming masters from the outer world would have taken control over the underground city this way. So, Fang led the elite master group, went all the way down to the portal area using special tunnels they dug before, and started a massacre there.

Doing it at the portal area wasn't as bad as it was at the underground city surface. Masters coming out from the portal were exhausted and not accustomed to the pressure and decline of power they suffered when coming here.

Attacking them at this moment was way easier than attacking them when they got used to some extent to their decline of power. And so, they started to release the pressure from the surface, while they slowly started to face troubles of their own.

Doing it on the portal area was indeed easier, but as William feared, the portal itself had an effect over the formations. It started with releasing a few masters from the grasp of the formations down there, ending up with weakening the formation sealing effects at some point.

But that was something these masters were prepared to face. William already explained the risks he expected, and they were prepared, to some extent.

The masters from the surface sent more reinforcements to help them. Also, more masters activated more formations regularly. Even when some formations stopped working at some point when the portal went active, others stepped up and activated other formations.

"This William is a beast!" Sloth was on the side of Fang, watching all this with a look of surprise on his face, "he even anticipated the unknown effects of the portal, and laid preparations for all this!"

"He isn't playing around," Fang said, while releasing a torrent of attacks towards a group of outer world masters entrapped in the formations, "but he missed in expecting the incoming master size. So far, we faced much more than what he expected we'd face as a whole!"

"Not a problem," Sloth looked around, "so far at least!"

The situation was kept under control for almost one more hour. Then all of sudden, things started to heat up!

The masters arriving here sent messages about what was happening to the other side of the portal. Lingerie had prepared an army of fifty thousand masters for this. But when she got the news, she started to call more reinforcements.

The main obstacle was the weird formations attacking anyone going to the other side of the portal. And so she decided to send her best masters out there first, to try and destroy as many formations as possible before the reinforcements would arrive.

Or else even if she sent a hundred thousand masters over, none would be able to change the situation. And so, a gush of strong masters happened, ending up with lots of pressure exerted over William's masters.

Even if they used the supreme augmenting formations, it was still quite hard to keep the situation under control. The masters coming from the outer world didn't know what this formation was, but they could tell a few things about it.

They noticed the formations showed lots of weakness signs when the portal was activated. And so Lingerie didn't send them in just one batch, but on five subsequent waves, with couple minute intervals between every wave and the other.

This made her consume lots of precious materials, but it was fine if that would result in crushing the weird resistance on the other side of the portal.

Fang and Sloth led the strongest masters to crush the incoming ones. But when the fourth wave arrived, cracks happened in the entire formations around the portal and many masters broke free at the same time.

"Kill them!"

"Let no one touch the formations!"

"All on me!"

Shouts erupted, and masters down there fought bravely against the loose free masters. But even with all of this, the masters from the outer world managed to destroy lots of formations.

They weren't ignorant about what they were doing. The ones who got here before already planned out lots of possible spots for the formation foundations to be. And they directly went towards these places, ran them with their deadliest attacks.

The situation shifted all of sudden from the good to the worse! And the city masters didn't know what to do except trying their best to maintain the last few formations active. But it was a futile attempt in the end.

The remaining formations lacked the ability to cover the entire portal region. On top of that, they lacked the ability to control such a great number of masters at the same time.

And yet William's masters knew they got to kill as much as they could, even if defending this area was a lost battle. So, they started to rain the entire area with deadly techniques, not holding back anymore.

William already warned them from doing random attacks or else the foundation of the portal would get damaged. He even marked the crucial parts that they shouldn't mess with, or else trying to repair the portal in the future would be impossible.

They tried their best to not touch these parts, and even with that, they ended up damaging a few of them. Luckily William marked more than enough, so the remaining pieces were enough to make the portal run. Yet it made the material requirement to get activated soar to a scary level, and also the time delay between activating the portal got longer.

The situation couldn't be described as a win for either side, but it could be described as a lose-lose situation for both.
