Chapter 299: Qian Li in shock

"What happened!?" Qian Li exclaimed, his shock palpable as he witnessed the countless fiery explosions ravaging through the ranks of his soldiers.

However, it wasn't over yet. The temperature surged, and ominous flames erupted, enveloping the entire army in a blazing inferno.

In a moment of realisation, Qian Li looked up to see the grim reaper avatar flickering, since the supply of Qi and lifespan diminished rapidly from the soldiers dying. The pressure on him and the other soldiers intensified.

"Damn it," he cursed through gritted teeth, releasing his grip on the shield.

"You all, even if your vitality is drained to the last drop, do not release your shields," Qian Li commanded in a cold tone.
