Chapter 1171 The War Begins (2/2)

Over this period, Zhou Yuan and the others personally witnessed nearly a hundred dots disappear, which meant nearly a hundred teams had been wiped out. Every member of these teams had lost their lives.

That was over ten thousand of the five heavens most elite Heavenly Sun experts.

They were individuals with their own stories, and geniuses that were adored by numerous others. However, these very same individuals had lost their lives without leaving even a name behind.

It was a devastating loss.

No one could remain indifferent to such a tragedy. A few of the more emotional girls could not help but muffle their crying.

However, these sacrifices were not in vain.

Zhou Yuan could feel the space before them begin to ripple violently as cracks began to appear.

“Go! Attack the positions recorded in your purple jade strips!” Zhou Yuan's icy voice rang out on the island.

“Don’t waste the lives they used to open a path for us, we must win this battle!”

Behind Zhou Yuan, the hundred figures roared, “We must win!”

Their figures shot forth, charging straight into the warping space, before disappearing into it.

Their departure made the island become rather empty.

Zhou Yuan turned his head and gazed at the ones left standing behind him, Bai Xiaolu, Guan Qinglong, Jiang Jinlin, Li Fu, Chu Qing, Zhao Mushen, Wu Yao, Su Youwei...

These were the five heavens’ strongest Heavenly Sun experts.

There was another group quietly standing behind them with solemn expressions. They would be accompanying the first group of super elites, and in simple terms, were their subordinates. Even so, they would face dangers that far surpassed all of the other teams.

Among them were several familiar faces, Li Qingchan, Zuoqiu Qingyu, Luluo, Li Chunjun and the others.

Zhou Yuan raised his hand and several golden jade strips flew towards the crowd.

“Everyone, it’s our turn next. Our routes are the most important because they lead straight to the key nodes. However, the Sacred Race will also be dispatching their strongest experts to guard these locations, and our goal is to destroy all of them.

“Every single one of you is very important. If you fail, those who paid with their lives to open the path for us would have died in vain.

“The war has already begun, and no one can escape. If we want to win, everyone will have to play their part!” Zhou Yuan slowly said, “That’s why...please use your lives to defeat every person who obstructs us!”

Everyone silently nodded, even Jiang Jinlin, who greatly envied Zhou Yuan, tightly gripped his golden jade strip, killing intent flowing in his eyes.

No one spoke as they silently adjusted their condition.

Another incense stick of time later.

Space began to ripple once more.

Zhou Yuan looked at the crowd, pausing on Su Youwei as he gave her a light nod, asking her to be a little more careful.

Rumble!

Everyone’s figures shot forth and collided with the warping space.

Space rippled as figure after figure disappeared.

The floating island was now deserted, but a sombre aura began to brew.

The war of no retreat had formally begun.
