Chapter 884 - God’s Arrival (2/2)

“What should we do then? Should we give up the city and run away, or should we send a message to the Heavenly Region?” Everyone looked to Xuan Mingzi, waiting for an answer.

“I would choose to give up the city. If we run toward different directions, we will split their strength. We don’t have a chance as long as the legions stay together. Of course, they must have thought of that as well, and that is why I’m certain that they wouldn’t chase after us. That being said, our disciples might not be able to get away, and by doing so, we will be handing over the Beihan Region to our enemy. That’s a shameful act.”

“But, are we going to just sit around and accept our deaths?”

Xuan Mingzi hesitated and was not sure what else to say.

Many sect masters also dithered about their next move.

Qin Hao and many other Chinese elders heaved a sigh in their minds. They had already started to falter before the real battle had even started.

However, without them, they would be fighting alone. Even the Sky-severing Sword wouldn’t last long in that case.

“Bah! What’s the worst that will happen anyways? Senior Chen saved my family, I can’t turn my back on him.”

Mu Hongti bit her lip and made up her mind.

Even as everyone contemplated their options, the Blood Thralls suddenly stopped moving and then backed away. The soldiers defending the wall let out a momentary cheer.

However, the appearance of three crimson clouds silenced the soldiers.

“That’s the Blood Fiend legion. Report to the Grand Elders and ready for battle!”

Xuan Mingzi and many other lords were seized by fear after they heard the news. Qin Hao hurried to fly to the Ancestral Temple.

“They will come sooner or later. Heck, I will go out and meet them now. Let’s find out if the Blood Fiend Legion is really invincible.”

Perfected Cultivator Heiming had nothing to lose at the moment, so he flew out of the city and appeared in front of the Blood Fiend Legion. He proceeded to reveal his domain dharma form, summoning powerful waves of dark torrents around him. Above the water, the True G.o.d of Dark Water appeared.

“I will help!”

Two elders from the Tianmang Hall flew to the sky and joined the fray.

They were followed by many reluctant Ancestral Patriarchs. The sect masters of five major sects stood at the head of the formation, and behind them were the Dharma Forms of over a hundred Golden Core Cultivators.

Azure Wood, Dark Water, Storm, Divine Demon, Heavenly Venerate… Apparitions of unimaginable beings filled up the sky above Old China Town. They joined their forces and expelled the sea of blood.

Over a hundred Perfected Cultivators gathered together and their powerful presence could be felt miles away.

Billions of residents of the Old China Town kowtowed to those powerful Perfected Cultivators. Meanwhile, a belligerent Sword Qi was lanced out from inside the Ancestral Temple and soared into the sky.

Xie Changying held the Sky-severing Sword in one hand as he flew toward the enemies.

That was the last ditch effort to save the Beihan Region, and what a fearful sight it was. The combined might of hundreds of Perfected Cultivators and a Quasi-Heavenly Treasure would deter any invader.

However, the three legions of Blood Fiends were unfazed; they pressed on with an unswerving determination to kill.

“Xuan Mingzi, Old Xie, you finally got out of hiding?” A sharp voice came up from one of the legions.

“Tsk, tsk… I think they realized that their protection was about to break, and coming out is their only choice.” Another voice was heard. That one sounded cold and vicious.

A wizened voice refuted, “Enough talking, I need actions. NOW. I don’t care about anyone else, but Xie Changying must die. Our lord wants his sword as well. Kill him or face our lord’s ire.”

Suddenly, over a hundred thousand Blood Fiend cultivators shook their bodies as their power increased. The three legions transformed into three gigantic blood dragons that charged toward Old China Town from three different directions.

During this moment of life and death, everyone held their breaths, waiting for whatever would come next.

Yun Yier squeezed Mu Hongti’s hand while Lin Wuhua gritted her teeth and looked into the distance. Many Ancestral Patriarchs readied their arts, preparing to fight until they exhausted the last shred of energy.

Suddenly… “Boom!”

A golden light was seen in the distant sky.

The blinding light shone so intensely that it penetrated the Blood Sea, making the dark torrents look translucent.

Everyone looked up toward the source of light.

They saw a glowing halo hanging in the air and within the halo was a dark-haired young man with a G.o.dlike appearance. His hands were linked behind his back and his eyes glowed like two spheres of golden flames.

“Chen Beixuan?”

Everyone was shocked when they recognized the young man.
