Something wasn't right!
Outside, Su Ping watched the battle between Nie Huofeng and the Curse-Winged Beast in the secondary space. Nie Huofeng had the upper hand in the previous strike.
The spells on the Curse-Winged Beast's wings, which he had been worried about, were also activated, but failed to do anything to Nie Huofeng. The first-generation Tower Master's combat ability was indeed terrifying, but Su Ping had a bad feeling after hearing their conversation.
They were communicating telepathically in the secondary space, because sound couldn't be transmitted in the secondary space because it was almost a vacuum.
Therefore, Su Ping couldn't tell what they were saying even if he wanted to read their lips.
At that moment, Nie Huofeng was obviously not as indifferent as before. On the other hand, the Curse-Winged Beast that had been roaring violently seemed to have become a different person … a different beast. It was unusually calm!
Neither of them moved, but it was obvious that they were communicating telepathically based on the changes in each other's expressions.
What did the Demon King of the Deep Caves say to change Nie Huofeng's expression?
Su Ping was solemn and had all kinds of thoughts. He couldn't help but be nervous and prudent.
Once Nie Huofeng fell, it would mean the end of mankind!
Next to him, the Heavenly King of Good and Evil and the empress were both solemn. They had also noticed something, but they couldn't be sure. After all, it was still unknown who would win.
Besides, the Lord of the Deep Caves had been defeated and completely suppressed, which made them feel rather heavy.
A great battle broke out in the secondary space again while they were thinking.
The Curse-Winged Beast suddenly flapped its wings, and the sealing power appeared again like scriptures, except that they were black and full of demonic energy.
The scriptures galloped in the secondary space, and a tremendous amount of blood was generated out of nowhere, turning into an ocean of blood!
The Curse-Winged Beast stood on the ocean of blood, and the enormous mouth on its head roared. Thousands of claws extended out of the ocean of blood and snatched at Nie Huofeng.
Nie Huofeng roared and shot out the fiery spear in his hand again. The spear almost pierced through the secondary space and flew straight at the Curse-Winged Beast. Bang!
Bang! Bang!
The claws in the ocean of blood along the way all exploded when they tried to stop it.
Sacred and white flames were burning on the spear as it pressed forward unstoppably. However, the dark runes appeared when it was about to reach the target. The flying ancient words blocked the spear as if they contained a mysterious power.
In an instant, the godly spear's momentum weakened. As the dark spell shattered, the godly spear's momentum weakened again!
The incandescent divine flame on it gradually weakened.
Roar!!
The enormous mouth on the Curse-Winged Beast's head swept out and swallowed the spear like a peerless devil.
In the blink of an eye, the spear that was condensed by laws was swallowed.
"Explode!!"
Nie Huofeng's eyes widened in fury when he saw that. He waved his fist, and a dazzling light shot out of the mouth after a boom, but it didn't completely penetrate it. Then, a grunt came out of the mouth and disappeared.
Nie Huofeng looked awful after seeing that. The spear wasn't torn apart as he had imagined; it had been swallowed.
At the same time, the Curse-Winged Beast roared excitedly and charged at Nie Huofeng with the ocean of blood under its feet.
"I'm going to make you pay for the thousand years of shame and hatred!"
The indifference on the Curse-Winged Beast's face was gone. It roared ferociously with infinite hatred and fury in its eyes.
Nie Huofeng's expression slightly changed. He waved his hand and summoned another ocean of fire, which evaporated all the sharp claws in the ocean of blood down below. He took a deep breath and stabbed the fiery rune on his forehead. Instantly, violent red cracks appeared on his forehead and spread all over his body.
There seemed to be magma inside his body that was about to burst apart.
Roar!!
He abruptly raised his hands, and the flames around his body moved accordingly, condensing in the palms of his hands, transforming into a rapidly spinning wheel of flames.
"Divine Illumination of the Flame Path!"
Nie Huofeng roared, and the wheel of fire in his palms burst out scorching light that seemed to be burning the sky. The space around the wheel cracked, and the air of the third space spread out. Destructive spatial blades were shot out, and one of them cut Nie Huofeng's face and left a wound!
However, it wasn't blood that flowed out of the wound, but flames!
The blood all over his body seemed to have turned into magma and fire at that moment!
It was his Magma Battle Form!
After a boom, the wheel rushed out, and the ocean of blood surged. All the light in the secondary space was cut apart by the wheel!
The Curse-Winged Beast's pupils constricted as it raised an ocean of blood to defend itself. In the meantime, the intense dark demonic aura spread out of its body and turned into a domain of demons.
Within the domain, streams of demonic dark fog rushed out like demonic souls, letting out ferocious roars.
Runes spread out on its wings. They were ancient characters that were full of mysterious power. The beast's aura soared when it appeared, making it look like a demon that could swallow the sky!
The crack in the secondary space was torn to a hundred thousand meters during the battle. The space above the battlefield was completely torn apart, as if night had fallen!
Everyone in the defensive line was shocked speechless by such a godly battle.
This had already exceeded their imagination and was indescribable with words!
It was almost a battle between gods and devils!
The beasts outside of the wall were also trembling in fear. They were horrified by such a scene. Some of the Fate State wild beasts that were fighting Gu Siping and the others were also disrupted by the unusual phenomenon and couldn't focus on the battle.
"Is … Is this a battle between Star State experts?"
Ji Yuanfeng slapped the Fate State beast king in front of him and looked at the dark secondary space above his head, as well as the brilliant ocean of blood and the divine wheel inside. He was too shocked to say anything.
He was only one step away from the Star State!
However, that one step was like reaching the sky!
On the other side, Gu Siping's eyes were bloodshot with excitement, and he fought even more fiercely.
The empress, the Heavenly King of Good and Evil, and the sea dragon, who were observing the battle from a distance, were as dazzled and shocked as Ji Yuanfeng.
Su Ping, on the other hand, frowned.
That scene was indeed shocking, much more than a battle between Fate State experts. However, he had seen too many similar scenes, so he didn't think much of it.
After all, he had seen scenes that were a hundred times more horrifying.
The secret technique that Nie Huofeng had unleashed was extremely powerful. Su Ping didn't know if he could defeat him.
Boom ~!!
The divine wheel and the ocean of blood collided, and blood splashed everywhere. The divine wheel broke through the ocean of blood and pressed forward, meeting the Curse-Winged Beast's domain. The world was instantly darkened, and ghosts were crying.
Although there was no sound, everybody could feel the intensity of the battle.
The domain of demons was soon broken, too. However, the Curse-Winged Beast's original appearance was revealed the moment the domain was broken. It was a thousand meters tall, standing in the ocean of blood like an ancient troll. It was twice as tall as the two high walls outside of the defense line!
The battle pet warriors who were observing from the high walls discovered, to their shock, that they could only look up.
The towering giant wall looked like two short doorsills!
With a boom, the Curse-Winged Beast waved its fist, surrounded by rules, and punched at the Divine Wheel. Energy poured out in an instant, and the Divine Wheel exploded. The Curse-Winged Beast was also blown away and fell into the secondary space behind, tearing another ten thousand meters of space apart!
However, the Curse-Winged Beast soon rose from the ground. The hand that it had punched out had been broken, leaving only one arm.
It stomped on the ground and charged at Nie Huofeng, as if it had gone mad.
Nie Huofeng vomited a mouthful of blood the moment his divine wheel was broken, as if he had been heavily wounded. The scorching cracks all over his body were gradually closing, and his energy was fading. He looked at the Curse-Winged Beast that was charging at him with shock, fury, and regret. He raised his hand and slashed at it, creating a crack next to him.
It was the tertiary space!
Star State warriors were capable of tearing open the tertiary space. However, the tertiary space was quite dangerous for Star State warriors, and they had to be careful to avoid the spatial turbulence inside.
The spatial blades inside carried the power of laws and were extremely destructive.
Nie Huofeng simply slid into the tertiary space after tearing it open, and the crack closed on its own. The surging sea of blood hit nothing but air and collapsed.
Roar!!
The Curse-Winged Beast roared angrily like a furious ape, waving its fists and roaring.
However, it managed to restrain itself and didn't charge into the tertiary space.
Nie Huofeng had fled to the tertiary space to stop its pursuit. The tertiary space was too dangerous, and there was a chance that it would be dragged to the point of mutual destruction even if it could kill Nie Huofeng.
…
"Well …"
On the battlefield outside, Su Ping was taken aback by what he had seen.
Nie Huofeng had been defeated!
And he had escaped!
The only thing left was the furious Curse-Winged Beast, the King of the Abyss!
Su Ping felt that his head was exploding. What he was most worried about had happened. Nie Huofeng had really been defeated!
Damn it, damn it!
Su Ping turned around and ran without hesitation!
Whoosh!
He used all his strength and flashed consecutively as fast as he could!
"Run!"
Su Ping roared at Ye Wuxiu and the others who were still in a daze while he flashed.
Before these people could figure out what was going on, they were stunned by the battle scene in front of them.
Gu Siping, who was fighting the beast tide, was stunned by Su Ping's sudden roar. He was about to burst into fury. Running away at such a critical moment? Are you asking to be killed?
However, he came back to himself the next moment, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head.
There could only be one reason why Su Ping was running away.
He raised his head …
At the same time, the Curse-Winged Beast lowered its eyes and looked at Gu Siping in the middle of the beast tide with brutality and killing intent.
In that instant, Gu Siping felt as if his entire body had been frozen. He was shivering from the cold.
He found that Nie Huofeng was nowhere to be seen in the secondary space!
Well …
On the other hand, Su Ping was already running as fast as he could!
He had no choice but to run. It was impossible for him to fight a Star State beast; the gap between them was too huge. There was an entire level of legendary between them!
Even though the Star State beast was wounded, he was still no match for it.
Run!
Run back to the shop!
I'll be safe in the shop!
That was the only thought on Su Ping's mind.
If he could, he was willing to save others and take on more responsibilities, but … if he was going to lose his own life, what was the point of saving others?
He didn't want to die!
He had died countless times in the cultivation sites, but it was exactly because he had died so many times that he was even more attached to life and knew how important it was!
He had gone through the pain of death again and again, just so that he wouldn't die in reality! He wouldn't die even once! Because he would be gone forever if he died once!
Boom!
Su Ping unleashed his full strength and returned to the high wall in the blink of an eye. He had already summoned the Inferno Dragon and the Dark Dragon Hound back to the pet space.
That was one of the benefits of the pet contract that the system had granted him. It could summon pets from a much larger range than the traditional Astral Pet contracts on the Blue Planet.
Ye Wuxiu and the others came back to themselves after hearing Su Ping's roar. They instantly realized what had happened, and their faces turned pale and bloodless.
Nie Huofeng had been defeated!
It meant that they were doomed!
Run!
Ye Wuxiu was the first to turn around and run after Su Ping.
They would be committing suicide if they stayed. After witnessing the battle and recognizing the power of the Star State, they knew that they were no different from bugs in front of the Lord of the Deep Caves.
They wouldn't be able to shake the terrifying Lord of the Deep Caves even if they were to fight with all their might!
Many legendary warriors turned around and ran, but some of them had a mental breakdown and gave up on struggling.
Ji Yuanfeng also ran. He didn't want to wait for his death. He had to survive even if he was the only one left; he didn't want his family to be wiped out!
"No …"
Gu Siping came back to his senses and tried to run away, only to find that he couldn't move anymore. Then, he saw the terrifying shadow step out of the secondary space.
The enormous claws covered everything as they grabbed Gu Siping.
"Spare my life. Please, spare my life. I'm willing to do anything for you. I know where the peerless treasures are. You can definitely get them with your strength. I can take you there …" Gu Siping looked at the approaching head, so scared that his eyes were almost popping out of their sockets.
At this moment, he did not have the demeanor of a commander-in-chief from before.
He didn't look like the master of the Tower at all.
He had dropped all his disguises and identities when he was faced with a life-or-death situation. He was as humble as a bug or an ant.
He hoped that he would be pitied and that he would be able to live on!
Because … he really didn't want to die!
"Nie Huofeng has run away. I'll wash away my anger with your blood!" Declared the Curse-Winged Beast. It didn't go after Nie Huofeng for another important reason; it wanted to wipe out all the human beings that had lived above its head for a thousand years!
Also, it had something else to take!
It was the thousand-year astral power!
The Curse-Winged Beast didn't believe that Nie Huofeng could hold back his urge to fight for the thousand-year astral power after it was released!
Considering his wounds, he wouldn't be able to treat his wounds in the tertiary space. He would be killed if he came out!
With that thought in mind, the Curse-Winged Beast became even more anxious. It roared with devilish brilliance beaming out of its eyes, "Relay my order. All my subjects, flatten them!"
This roar shook the heavens and spread for hundreds of miles!
Even the Beast Tide on the other three sides of the defense line heard the loud, loud, and domineering roar!
This roar woke up everyone within the defensive line. In an instant, everyone's expressions changed.
The demonic beast that had just fought was still alive, but its opponent had run away. Who could stop it now?!
The Curse-Winged Beast's thousand-meter-long body alone was already desperate enough. The wall they had built was only six hundred meters tall and only reached the beast's waist!
The height of six hundred meters was also the best defense height according to the experts' calculations. It was quite laborious to build the wall.
Faced with the Abyssal Demon King that was like a demon, everybody inside the defense line was too scared to think. Many people were already wailing in despair.
…
Outside the defense line, on the other three sides.
"It's the leader's voice!"
"The battle just now was caused by the leader. It said that there might be a Star Rank Overlord hiding among the humans. Does that mean that the Star Rank Overlord has already been killed?!"
"That's terrifying …"
"It's time to charge. Hahaha, although they are just ants, they should taste good if we eat them by the handful!"
"Kill them, kill them, kill them!"
The wild beasts on the other three sides were excited. They began to move under the command of the Fate State warriors. Gradually, the wild beasts began to charge forward, causing the ground to tremble.
The situation on the other three sides was also reported to the Tower. The intelligence department was immediately alerted.
"The wild beasts on the other three sides are moving as well …"
"No, no more legendary battle pet warriors. They are running for their lives …"
"We're doomed …"
Some of the staff in the intelligence center who were responsible for delivering information were filled with despair.
What could they do when even legendary battle pet warriors were running away?
That thousand-meter-tall beast … Even if they were sitting in the base city, they could still see its huge body at a glance!
Was that something that humans could fight?
All the warriors inside the defense line lost their will to fight.
Just that towering demonic body alone was enough to make them completely dejected and lose their desire to live.
But some of them were still glowing and burning. They were ready to fight by burning their astral powers.
"We must make them pay even if we have to die!!"
"I'll kill one of them even if I have to die!!"
"Charge!!"
Some roars woke up some desperate faces. Soon, the battle pet warriors on the wall gathered up some strength to make the last resistance!
Whoosh!
Su Ping was moving quickly in the sky.
He had already returned to the wall before anyone could react. He had already dashed back to the Longjiang Base City.
Su Ping went back to his store as soon as he arrived.
Behind Su Ping, the other legendary battle pet warriors had also run back to the wall.
The battle pet warriors on the wall were hopeful when they saw the legendary battle pet warriors. Someone shouted, "Lord, let's fight together!"
"Lord, please protect us!!"
"Lord, let's fight together!"
The roars made many of the Legendary battle pet warriors who had crossed the giant wall grimace.
Yuan Tianchen heard a titled battle pet warrior in a military uniform asking him for help while he was flying. Yuan Tianchen pulled a long face and flashed away.
Not even the first-generation Tower Master could defeat the beast. What else could they do?
Didn't you see how powerful the Lord of the Deep Caves is?
Who could fight it?
They could only run!
Many legendary battle pet warriors ignored the pleading and ran back to the defense line, trying to find a chance to break through the chaotic battle. There was no hope of winning the battle. They didn't even know if they could make it out alive.
"Damn it. I'm not going to run. I'm going to die anyway. I'm going to fight!!"
Xue Yunzhen heard the pleading of the battle pet warriors. She made up her mind and stopped.
Her beautiful snow-white legs came to an abrupt stop in the void, and she landed on the giant wall.
She was livid when she heard the grateful voices around her. At this point, those battle pet warriors who weren't even legendary battle pet warriors were still eager to fight.
Even if the ignorant were fearless, but … this battle intent was blazing hot!!
There was already no way out, so why should he run?
Seeing that Xue Yunzhen had stopped, Ye Wuxiu's expression changed greatly. He roared, "What are you doing? Do you want to die? How can we fight those Star State warriors? There are so many Fate State warriors too. Let's find a chance to fight our way out with Mr. Su. At least, we'll be able to save some hope. Do you really want to be annihilated?! "
Xue Yunzhen was stunned and looked awful.
"We need you. We have to fight our way out no matter what!" On the other side, Xiang Fengran passed by Xue Yunzhen and said angrily, "We're not running; we're making a final sprint for new hope. No matter how the world thinks of us, we can't let the hope die out!"
…

He recommended a new book by a certain god, "Players in the World of Demons":
Summon [Players] from an alternate universe in the real World of Demons … You can take a look if you like it!
