Chapter 1020: 1020

These leopards were called Dark Devil Leopards . However, they were a bit different from normal Magical Beasts . These lifeforms were not from this world, but a Devil World .

The Martial Heaven Continent had once gone through an unprecedented tribulation . There had been a battle of G.o.ds that had destroyed the world barrier and changed the terrain . The Martial Heaven Sea-Ring had formed at that time .

The destruction of the world barrier had allowed foreign lifeforms to invade the Martial Heaven Continent . These Bone Spur Devil Apes and Dark Devil Leopards came from a Devil World .

It was rumored that they were the original ancestors of Magical Beasts, the result of interbreeding with the wild beasts from this world . However, the odds of that being true were very low . The lifeforms that came from Devil Worlds were tyrannical, berserk, and only thought of slaughter . It was impossible for them to breed with the continent’s species .

For example, these Bone Spur Devil Apes had no sense of fear despite having been cut down in droves . The only thing they had was a desire to kill . That wasn’t something that should occur in lifeforms with intelligent minds .

On the ground, the Bone Spur Devil Apes were growing stronger and still attacking, while in the sky, the huge Dark Devil Leopards launched vicious attacks . Dozens of them came directly for Long Chen .

Long Chen extended a hand, and dodging the claws of one of them, he grabbed the skin on the back of its neck and swung it around, using it as a weapon to knock back the other Dark Devil Leopards .

What startled him was that their claws were extremely sharp . The one caught in his hand was lacerated all over by them .

“Everyone, be careful! These leopards’ offensive power far outstrips their defensive power!” warned Long Chen .

They were incredibly fast with sharp attacks . Even if their defense was weak, their speed made up for it . Whenever they swooped down from the sky and fell into their midst, shrieks of pain would erupt . All the factions were panicked .

Tang Wan-er flew into the air, wind blades erupting . She cut down hordes of the Dark Devil Leopards, but there were too many of them, and she couldn’t kill them all .

When Long Chen said that their defense was weaker than their offense, that was just in comparison . Their defensive power was by no means weaker than an ordinary eighth rank Magical Beast’s .

The number of deaths in each faction rapidly rose . With each pa.s.sing second, disciples were being killed . Now the difference between the disciples was made even more apparent .

The Central Plains’ disciples didn’t stay panicked for long . Fighting all-out, although there were some losses, the death rate of the four regions’ disciples far outstripped theirs .

The four regions’ disciples were being cut down one by one . They had never experienced such a terrifying fight, and their mental realms crumbled .

Fan Song, Hu Guishan, Que Xinyan, and w.a.n.g Zhen didn’t bother with the people dying behind them . They continued charging forward .

Only Hua s.h.i.+yu extended the scope of her attack to protect the women behind her . But there were too many people, and she couldn’t protect them all .

Zhao Ziyan also unleashed her full power to protect them, showing the power of her water energy . But still, she wasn’t able to protect all of them . People were constantly dying, filling her with pain .

She felt profoundly helpless . She was a generation’s genius, but in front of endless devil beasts, she could only watch as they killed these young women .

“Ziyan, just do your best . A person’s power is limited . Don’t feel bad,” comforted Hua s.h.i.+yu .

She had clearly experienced much more than Zhao Ziyan and had endured the cruelness of reality . To protect everyone was impossible . They could only do their best .

Fan Song and the others simply charged forward without care . This trial washed away the weak, leaving behind only the elite . What they wanted was the elite, not the trash . That was why they didn’t bother with those people at the back . Their goal was merely to open the way forward, and those that lived would be the people worth raising .

The Dark Devil Leopards didn’t slow them down at all . In fact, they advanced faster and faster .

As for Long Chen’s side, their speed began to slow down once the Dark Devil Leopards appeared . Long Chen was entangled with several of the Dark Devil Leopards, causing quite a few people to sneer .

Once Long Chen’s faction was thrown to the back, they would be alone and eventually exterminated by the sea of beasts .

Long Chen was constantly swinging two Dark Devil Leopards in his hands . Suddenly, he tossed them aside, and he let out a roar like spring thunder . With a single fist, astral winds blew apart dozens of Dark Devil Leopards .

This attack allowed the people following him to be filled with new confidence in him . Previously, he had been entangled with them and been unable to do anything, causing their hearts to sink . But now that he killed so many in one blow, their hearts lifted again .

“These devil leopards’ attacks are strong, and they are fast . Don’t get in a tangle with them . What you have to do is kill them in one blow .
