Chapter 940 Human Race's Unfavorable Start
Chapter 940 Human Race's Unfavorable Start
The Thirty-Six Heavenly Swords Formation was broken in a lightning-fast process, leaving no time for the human powerhouses to react.
Immediately afterwards, a rich aura of life suddenly spread out, and at the same time, a powerful pressure from the Void Refinement Realm swept across the entire area. The avatar of the Tree of Life slowly appeared.
A green domain spanning a hundred miles instantly unfolded, covering a large area of the battlefield. The next moment, she unhesitatingly unleashed a secret technique of mutual destruction—Life Sacrifice. Her body surged with green light, carrying a resolute aura.
To the surprise of both the Tree of Life and the Great Sage of Heaven, there were only a dozen or so minor races at the Nascent Soul stage within a hundred-mile radius, and not a single human Nascent Soul stage expert.
They slaughtered tens of thousands of their fellow demons and expended tremendous effort for this secret technique, but the result was completely unsatisfactory and a complete waste of time.
What's more troublesome is that Shi and his companion's appearance has already triggered a backlash from the Heavenly Dao. A huge hole instantly cracked open in the sky, and a series of pitch-black lightning bolts swept down from the sky, carrying a destructive aura as they rushed straight towards the two of them.
The Great Sage Equaling Heaven's expression changed. He quickly attached the two Nascent Soul Perfection stage blood souls he had painstakingly refined to two unfortunate Nascent Soul stage demonic beasts nearby; it was better than wasting them.
"Boom! Boom!"
Boom! Boom…
Violent explosions rang out one after another. In just a few seconds, the battlefield was filled with unexpected changes. A series of actions were dazzling to watch, and the final result and process both exceeded the expectations of both sides.
Suddenly, a heart-wrenching roar shattered the brief tranquility of the battlefield, filled with boundless grief and resentment:
"You despicable people! You were just discussing things so clearly, and then you all ran away!"
They tricked us into staying put as cannon fodder! Our ancestors, you died such a terrible death!
The Nascent Soul Realm Tide Turtle that remained in place looked at its kin lying lifeless in pools of blood on either side of it. Its eyes turned red, and it roared hoarsely, its grief and indignation spreading throughout the entire battlefield.
Their Tide Turtle clan was already sparsely populated, with only four Nascent Soul Realm experts in total. This time, when they wiped out the Myriad Races Alliance, the clan directly dispatched all its combat power.
Over the past month, relying on the tortoise demon's formidable defense, they successfully captured a Nascent Soul Realm demon beast. Having tasted success, even the last Nascent Soul Realm ancestor in the clan couldn't resist the urge to capture another one to strengthen the clan's power.
After all, such a large-scale battle opportunity would be hard to come by again. But who would have thought that the human race was full of liars? As soon as the formation was broken, they all retreated, leaving only their fifteen demon beasts behind.
In the end, only this Tide Turtle survived out of the fifteen demonic beasts.
It was only because it was a young species, having lived for over a thousand years, that it was able to survive, thanks to its abundant lifespan and the extremely strong defense of its shell.
Of its three ancestors, one died before his lifespan was over and his life force was forcibly drained by the Tree of Life's secret technique.
The other two had ample lifespans, but they were entangled by the Great Sage Equaling Heaven's perfected Nascent Soul blood soul, ultimately meeting a tragic end by perishing together with him.
"Hahahaha! This is what happens to traitors like you who betrayed the human race! You complained that we used you as cannon fodder back then, but now you know you've been tricked!"
Ao Wudi's maniacal laughter echoed throughout the battlefield, filled with blatant mockery.
The tide turtle trembled with fright and quickly retracted its limbs and head into its shell. It was weak and feeble, and only by retracting into its shell could it feel a little safe.
Immediately afterwards, Xuan Yue, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, and the incarnation of the Tree of Life appeared one after another, followed by more than twenty Nascent Soul Realm demons, each radiating intense killing intent and staring coldly at the human race.
Hope was ignited in the hearts of the demons; this time, they were in luck! The battle had barely begun when the human race lost fourteen Nascent Soul stage demon beasts, and their most feared Heavenly Thirty-Six Sword Formation was also broken.
Although there were still more than forty Nascent Soul Realm experts on the other side, this was the 100,000-meter deep sea, which was the home ground of the demon race. In addition, with the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, the Tree of Life, Ao Wudi, and Lord Xuan Yue in charge, the chances of victory were extremely high, and the confidence of all the demon race members instantly soared.
On the other hand, the Wu Qingqing sisters were still in a daze, their backs covered in cold sweat.
It was just a tiny bit short, just a tiny bit more.
If Xuan Cang hadn't led them to retreat in time, they would have died on the battlefield just like those fourteen demonic beasts, their deaths unexplained. Even with spiritual treasures protecting them, they couldn't withstand that level of attack.
Some of the other human cultivators and demons were filled with lingering fear and apprehension.
Some people secretly cursed the dead monsters for their stupidity. Only a month had passed since the last lesson, and they had been blinded by greed. They deserved to end up like this.
The only concern in everyone's mind was that the destruction of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Sword Formation would greatly reduce their subsequent combat strength.
Lei Huang and Shui Zhongyue reacted the fastest, immediately taking out the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Discs from their waists and sending a distress signal to the Reincarnation Venerable.
Wang Bin and the other girls, who were watching the battle from Star Island, saw the changes on the battlefield through the Spirit Mirror, even though there was a delay of a few seconds due to satellite transmission.
Fire Phoenix turned pale with fright, and a bead of cold sweat slid down her hair.
Wang Bin remained calm and spoke indifferently: "You see, the Tree of Life and Ping Tian are both ancient monsters who have lived for over ten thousand years. They are meticulous and ruthless."
The best way to deal with them is to stay behind and command them remotely, and never give them an opportunity to take advantage of us.
"It's only because this is in the Canglan Realm that their strength is limited by the rules of heaven and earth; otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable."
"Kill! Kill the weaker Nascent Soul stage humans first!"
With a shout, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven charged towards the human race, his killing intent palpable. Among all the powerful figures present, his strength was undoubtedly among the top!
"Hahahaha! Kill! The time to avenge our people has come!"
Xuan Yue burst into laughter, his body suddenly swelling to the size of a giant Xuanwu several thousand meters in length. Its massive form blotted out the sky, and a huge gravity field instantly unfolded.
At the same time, the Xuanwu sword and shield above their heads spun rapidly, cutting towards the human camp with a sharp whooshing sound.
"Thunder Realm!"
"Divine Power: Nine Heavens Awakening Thunder!"
"Don't panic, everyone. Everything is within the Samsara Venerable's expectations!"
We have a numerical advantage; reinforcements will arrive via the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Disc in one minute!
Lei Huang reassured everyone in a deep voice, the lightning mark on his forehead lighting up, golden arcs of electricity shooting out continuously, and the sky above the sea instantly became overcast.
Amidst flashes of lightning and thunder, a thick, purple bolt of lightning, as thick as an arm, was slowly forming, exuding a terrifying pressure.
Feng Jiutian and Feng Wu exchanged a glance, then soared into the sky without a word. They were originally fire phoenixes, belonging to the fire element, and their strength was severely limited in the deep sea.
Only by flying into the air can they exert their normal combat power.
Xuan Cang and the Yuan brothers quickly surrounded Wu Qingqing and her sister, simultaneously unleashing a gravity field to firmly protect them within.
Wu Qingqing and her sister then came to their senses and quickly summoned the Water Control Pearl, instantly forming a layer of crystal-clear water shield around them. As half-demons, and with the protective pearls that Wang Bin had provided them, their strength was not affected at all when fighting underwater.
On the battlefield, the Nascent Soul stage demons manifested their true forms, each several thousand meters in size. Their enormous bodies stirred up towering waves in the sea, and they fought fiercely with the human cultivators.
Inside the headquarters of the Myriad Races Alliance, thousands of demons at the late Nascent Soul stage rushed out. Although their cultivation was inferior to that of the Divine Transformation stage, their sheer numbers made them the best, and they fearlessly charged towards the human camp.
"Ah! Ah!"
As soon as the battle began, two piercing screams echoed throughout the battlefield.
