With the Tumulus Pill Godâs age, his lifebound beasts had also long since gone past their peak. Even so, they still seemed like the kings of avian and terrestrial beasts. They combined the advantages of lions and eagles. In the sky or on the land, these were war gods among lifebound beasts!
As for him, after he had grown to over ten meters tall, his eight ears were obvious. It was the eight-ears talent of the wargodeans, which was an innate gift for combat that could push their echolocation to a terrifying level and give them even greater combat ability. No sound in the battlefield could escape his notice.
With his long spear and giant cauldron, and commanding five nine-headed war griffons, it was clear that the previous War God hadnât lost his sharpness yet.
This clash left Yun Tianque unable to breathe.
âDonât resist!â The Tumulus Pill God knocked aside countless cultivators protecting Yun Tianque, seizing the initiative.
A handsome and cold middle-aged man suddenly appeared in front of Yun Tianque and his gaze stabbed into the Tumulus Pill God like sharp swords. At the same time, eight shadows appeared by the manâs sideâthey were darknight truefiends! When they appeared, the surrounding area was immediately plunged into darkness. In the dark, the horned figures with their blood-red eyes and giant, beast-like claws looked especially frightening.
âYang Ce!â The Tumulus Pill Godâs eyes narrowed. He couldnât understand what he was seeing. Yang Ce was from the Xuanyuan Dragon Sect, what was he doing here? His instincts suddenly screamed danger and he turned around. Many experts had surrounded him. Long Wanying, Yan Wuxia.⦠Them being with Yang Ce was normal. But why was Gujian Qingshuang there? Even the Snowsun Quadspecters were preparing to fight the Tumulus Pill God!
âYou all?â The Tumulus Pill God shook. He smelled a conspiracy, but his mind was a mess.
They all coldly looked at him. âTumulus Pill God, you had a high prestige and commanded universal respect. Yet you chose to become a lapdog of the celestial orderians. That is⦠unacceptable,â Long Wanying said.
âYou and Yun Tianque!â The Tumulus Pill God stared with wide eyes as his heart pounded. He still didnât get it.
Yun Tianque and Gujian Qingshuang were generational foes! How could they be here, standing side by side? How did Gujian Qingshuang dare to come into the Supracloud Sanctuaryâs formation by himself? Why were the Snowsun Quadspecters serving them? He didnât get it! He couldn't see Tianming, who was spectating the battle from afar.
No one would solve his confusion.
âInteresting,â the Tumulus Pill God couldnât help but laugh.
Long Wanying looked outside and said, âLet me tell you some good news. Right now, Li Wushuang is trying to bring two hundred thousand people north to escape. Theyâre already at the gates of the Supracloud Sanctuary. However, the Northdipper Swordsage brought people to block them and their path. Theyâre currently surrounded by an army of a million cultivators, so your current last ditch effort is meaningless. Donât you have eight ears? Can you hear the wailing of your hundred thousand wargodeans outside?â
The Tumulus Pill God felt his heart clench. No matter how good his hearing was, he couldnât hear anything from outside the formation. Long Wanying was mocking him, so he wouldnât believe her!
âWretched woman, stop lying. How could you all stop her if Lady Wushuang wanted to bring people away? You think some words are enough to scare me?â the Tumulus Pill God coldly laughed, but he felt like countless ants were crawling over his heart.
âLook behind you!â
Battle had already erupted in the formation. With a ten-to-one disadvantage, the wargodeans could only flee.
âInside, outside, all you all know how to do is run,â Long Wanying said.
âBastards!â The Tumulus Pill God was furious. âIn the past, would a bunch of incapable children like you have dared to surround me?â
âWhy talk about the past? Accept your fate!â Long Wanying said. She exchanged a glance with her team; none of them would care about fairness when it came to the Tumulus Pill God.
âAll of you come at me together!â The Tumulus Pill Godâs status was nothing like Lan Shaâs. He was someone whom all wargodeans respected and was the strongest opponent they had besieged so far.
From afar, Tianming felt his heart pound. Could they succeed? At least it would be hard for the Tumulus Pill God to escape now that he had entered the formation.
The darknight truefiends and nine-headed war griffons started attacking each other. The battle between gold and black tore apart the clouds, forcing Tianming to retreat.
âYin Chen, whatâs the status outside?â Tianming asked.
âAll is⦠under control...â Yin Chen proudly said.
âSpeak clearly!â
âThey have⦠countless casualtiesâ¦.â
How many exactly were countless? Tianming looked at the edges of the formation; he wanted to see it personally.
âTo seize this continent, I need to chase away the invaders. Goodbye, wargodeans and Blueblood Starocean!â
â¦â¦
Smoke and blood filled the air as a rain of fire fell from the fiery clouds above to meet the bloody mist on the battlefield. The rain of fire caused the pools of blood on the ground to boil and release blood-red vapor that filled the air with a stench.
âThis way, Lady Wushuang!â Among the mountains of corpses and rivers of blood, a small group was cutting through the bloodsoaked battlefield. It was Li Wushuang and her fourteen aides. Even now, they were still orbiting around her. If they flew, they would definitely be faster. However, they would be a target, so they stuck to the ground and tried to leave inconspicuously.
There was a crunch as Li Wushuang stepped on a fallen leaf, cracking a corpseâs arm bone hidden underneath. She remained expressionless as she continued on.
âLady Wushuang, donât be angry. It doesnât matter. It isnât like these are losses for our celestial orderians. Theyâre just some wargodeans and Blueblood Starocean cultivators. Theyâre servants of the emperor, so some of them dying doesnât really matter.â
âRight, right. His Solar majesty wonât blame you.â
âThe Northdipper Swordsage is too hateful. The Sky Palace, Dreamless Celestial Nation, and the Voidword Shrine havenât even dared to speak up, but he still ran here to show off. That moron is seeking death.â
âWhen His Solar Majesty hears of this, heâll definitely wipe out the Empyrean Sword Sect to help you vent.â
âIn this situation, theyâre so surrounded that even ten thousand of this two hundred thousand escaping would be a miracle. Letâs forget about them and leave faster!â
âYes, your safety is the most important thing.â
Her entourage continued comforting Li Wushuang.
âQuiet. The next one to speak will lose their tongue.â Li Wushuangâs voice was utterly sinister. She didnât sympathize with the dead; however, this sort of failure would mark her for the rest of her life.
Her attendants hurriedly shut up.
However, at that moment, a mob of several hundred rushed out. In the lead was a bloodsoaked Wind Swordlord. From how he looked, he had participated in a massacre. Even if he hadnât slain a thousand, he had at least slain eight hundred. When he laid eyes on Li Wushuang, he gulped. He immediately used a divine ordered tome to send out a flare that lit up the sky, signaling Li Wushuangâs position! Countless people quickly surged in his direction, barring their path.
âHow did he find us when we were so stealthy?â Li Wushuang frowned.
Her group was actually almost out of the battlefield. It seemed that the Wind Swordlord had known their location.
âThatâs true!â
The way forward was swarming with people.
âItâs Li Wushuang!â
âStop her!â
âKill her!â
The sight of so many randoms looking at her with murder in their eyes made Li Wushuang coldly sneer. However, she was undeniably very irritated.
âWhich of you betrayed me? Step out.â Li Wushuang looked at those around her with contempt.
They were all stunned. They didnât know why the Snowsun Quadspecters had betrayed them, either. Due to that betrayal, Li Wushuang assumed one of them had leaked the information.
But in truth, the real reason was that Yin Chen was tracking them. Tianming had then used someoneâs transmission stone to give the Wind Swordlord her location. The result was all Yin Chenâs merit.
There were at least eighty thousand people heading this way right now.
âLi Wushuang is here!â
âStop her!ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Such shouts could be heard everywhere. These people didnât show any mercy and directly charged in for the kill. However, ordinary people couldnât pose a threat to Li Wushuang. She would have died long ago otherwise.
âWhat do we do now, Lady Wushuang? There are so many.â Some of her attendants started getting anxious.
âShut up! Just kill them all! How dare they raise a hand against Lady Wushuang?â
At that moment, several attacks from lifebound beasts were lobbed toward Li Wushuang. This was a war! Even if Li Wushuang wouldnât die in the end, her entourage might not survive.
âKill our way out!â They sped up and finally managed to leave behind the forest and arrive at a vast lake. This was the northmost part of the Azurecloud Continent. Any farther and they would be in celestial orderian territory.
However, when they reached the lakeshore, they found over ten thousand swordpupils floating above the lake. And at their center was a man with a stone-like body wearing a mask and gently smiling at them.
He was the Northdipper Swordsage!
