Chapter 1633: Traitor (1/2)
The Seaspirits’ status in the Void World was inferior to that of the Netherspirits, Devils and Bonedrudes.
They had never produced a paragon. Even late tenth grade grand monarchs had rarely emerged in their history.
Because of this, the Seaspirits had no choice but to obey the orders of the three major races. When they had been summoned, they had laid aside the matters of their race and dispatched experts to come here.
The Seaspirits who had spoken stood on an ancient starship that was in the form of a large conch. Most of their members on board were at the eighth and ninth grades.
Only their leader was an early tenth grade grand monarch.
The Seaspirits’ warships were surrounded by those of Moonspirits and Lightspirits. Like the Seaspirits, they had also been ordered to come to the Forbidden Land of Devil Refinement to assist the three major races in the upcoming battle.
The Seaspirits, the Moonspirits, and the Lightspirits of the Void World were similar to the Birdmen, Stonemen, and Blackscales of the Spirit World. Because they were fairly weak, they had to attach themselves to the stronger races in a bid to survive.
SWOOSH!
The Moonspirits were led by a female who was an early tenth grade grand monarch. She floated to the Seaspirits, cast Nie Tian a distant, measuring look, then whispered, “Who on earth is that Nie Tian of the Mortal World?”
The Seaspirits quickly told her what they had heard.
While listening to their words, the Moonspirit leader turned pale.
“Grand Monarch Heaven Seal, Grand Monarch Serpent Devil, and Grand Monarch Purple Scythe have all been killed by him?” she asked in a slightly shaky voice. “Even Grand Monarch Ash Bone of the Bonedrudes died in the Spirit World because of him?”
Grand Monarch Ash Bone was an awe-inspiring name throughout the Void World.
Since his territory wasn’t far from the Moonspirits’, she had seen how cruel and powerful he had been.
He had visited her not long ago. She still remembered how terrifying the aura from his Bell of Death had been.
The Seaspirit grand monarch nodded slowly, looking gloomy. “Right, he has killed Grand Monarch Ash Bone! Such a figure has suddenly descended on the Forbidden Land of Devil Refinement, and looks so confident. I’m afraid...”
The Moonspirits’ leader looked tremendously pale as she said, “Crap! We’ll be in trouble! You and I will definitely be pushed to the forefront when the battle really begins. We may very well become fodder that’s used to test his strength.”
“Of course that’s going to happen,” the Seaspirit leader said with a wry smile.
They were appendages. Whenever the Devils, Netherspirits, and Bonedrudes fought against strong enemies, and summoned them to join the battle, they would have a high chance to become the vanguard.
Through them, the three major races could judge the strength of their enemies and adjust their strategies accordingly.
The Moonspirit leader looked around for a while, then spoke. “I don’t see a grand monarch with the Lightspirits. They didn’t dispatch any powerful experts? Are they not afraid of being punished by the three major races?”
Frowning, the Seaspirit grand monarch said, “It seems that there was a great upheaval among the Lightspirits not long ago. I heard that even their leader was replaced. Then again, the Lightspirits have always been secretive. Since they haven’t made it public, I don’t know the specific situation either.”
“What shall we do if we are pushed to the forefront in the battle to come?”
“What else can we do? I just hope they won’t sit by and watch us die.”
Hearing their leaders’ conversation, the Seaspirits and the Moonspirits who had been summoned to join this battle looked gloomy. They all stared at Nie Tian from afar, their eyes full of fear.
...
Above the Forbidden Land of Devil Refinement.
Unusual light suddenly flashed in the eyes of Nie Tian, who stood motionless in the void.
His face darkened, and he looked coldly at the area where the Netherspirits were gathered in the distance.
Bright starlight suddenly burst out.
Then, a huge silk banner that seemed to show a river of stars inside manifested out of nothing.
