The process of the battle was cruel and boring.
No matter how powerful the sword strike was, it could not cut through the enemy's body. Attacking skills were also completely ineffective.
Even if the enemy's appearance collapsed into a disorderly line, it would regenerate after a while.
It was not an ability like 'Enhanced Regeneration' or 'Immortality'. It was just that his attacks were completely ineffective.
That's right. Although it looked like he was causing damage to the enemy, the fact was that the enemy was simply reacting after being hit. It was not a sign that the attack was effective.
In fact, as one of the top combatants in this world, Yi Qing had not fought with these things for a long time.
Under normal circumstances, he would mostly avoid them. This time was the same. If the situation was not so critical, he would not want to fight with the enemy.
After experiencing the collapse of the world's order, these top combatants had long understood that the enemy could not be killed.
Every time he fought with these things, it would only deepen the helplessness and despair in his heart.
Many of the originally proud and arrogant combatants were defeated by the despair after realizing this. They chose to give up resisting and were infected by the evil intent, becoming one of these monsters.
"Cough cough …"
In a moment of carelessness, Yi Qing was kicked by a huge monster the size of a villa. Even if he used his weapon to block the monster's huge foot at the critical moment, the teenager was still sent flying by the powerful force. He bounced on the ground for more than ten meters before he stopped rolling.
He coughed a few times and felt a dull pain in his chest slowly spreading.
Was it a broken rib?
"Ugh!"
Before he could catch his breath, the smaller monsters had already swarmed over. They were not in an orderly manner. It was as if they were simply fighting for something. They swarmed and tried to use their strange bodies to entangle and tear Yi Qing apart.
From this point, it could be understood that these monsters did not have an ant queen acting as a commander.
This was both a good and a bad thing.
The good thing was that they did not have a unified will to command them. These things' actions were disorderly and aimless. It was common for them to clash with each other. If this was not the case, all the monsters needed to do was to charge and even the most advanced sanctuary city would fall in an instant.
The reason why it was a bad thing was obvious. Without an ant queen or something like that, there was no way to eliminate the entire enemy in one go.
Once a person's body was touched by them, the body would immediately show signs of corrosion as if it was being corroded by black snow.
It was not the decay of the body because no matter what method was used to diagnose the wound, it would come to the conclusion that the injured person was quite healthy. It was the corrosion of the soul on a deeper level.
However, before they were completely contaminated and turned into monsters, many people were torn apart by these monsters...
"I don't know what kind of monster I am …"
As the pain in his chest became more and more severe, Yi Qing's basic offensive and defensive movements began to change. This brought about a few consecutive touches on his body.
His outer cloak had begun to rot, and his exposed skin had also begun to show signs of corrosion. It was like a special kind of burn. The outer layer of his skin was dark, and the middle layer of his skin was covered with yellowish spots of new pink flesh.
A tingling and itchy feeling came from the wound. It even gave Yi Qing the illusion that he was gradually being infected.
'No, I can't hold on any longer. This is my limit.'
Yi Qing sighed and tried to retreat.
"Ku!"
However, because he had stayed here for too long and the battle was quite intense, many of the surrounding monsters had been lured out. Now he was surrounded by monsters.
He tried to break out of the encirclement a few times, but all ended in failure. The wounds on his body were increasing.
Looking around at the densely packed monsters, Yi Qing finally realized that there was no way for him to escape.
"Looks like this is the best I can do …"
The young man leaned on his sword and lowered his head. The necklace around his neck also drooped because of this action, but the pendant on it had completely turned black. With a crisp sound, the pendant shattered with a bang — the protection from Xia Xueyao's holy power had completely disappeared.
The black snowflakes finally came into contact with Yi Qing. Every snowflake that fell on him brought with it a pungent smoke and a sizzling sound like barbecued meat.
It was all over.
But for some reason, Yi Qing did not feel the slightest fear in his heart.
"Even if I can't fight you now, one day, people will find a way to suppress you things!" Yi Qing looked up and shouted at the monsters.
He did not have much stamina left. In fact, he could barely stand now, but the enemies were still tirelessly swarming towards him.
The young hero shouted with all his might. "Then we will rise again, and in the end, it will be the victory of the humans!"
After saying that, he placed the chipped longsword against his own neck. He decided that even if he had to face hundreds of monsters, he would at least die in this place with his human body!
Just at this moment.
"Good willpower, but you still lack the unyielding spirit of longing and hope to stand until the end."
A voice that he had never heard before, but felt familiar to him sounded beside him.
What followed was an incomparably loud whistle that would never appear in this world.
In the next moment, the crowd of monsters that surrounded him was like the sea being parted by Moses, and a wide road appeared in the middle.
The pitch-black steam locomotive sped through the middle, then drifted to a stop beside the young man.
"Mr. Brave Warrior …" Seeing the face that left a deep impression on him, Yi Qing's legs went weak and he knelt on the ground.
The pleasant surprise of escaping from death's door caused the little bit of strength left in his body, which was originally prepared to die, to be sucked out. His entire body was about to fall to the ground.
At this moment, Xu Shenxing had already appeared beside him and brought the wounded young man to Mo Li's side.
"Wahhh, what happened …" Song Yu was still confused by the current situation. She hugged the expressionless Mo Li tightly like she was hugging a doll.
"Mo Li, protect River Moon."
In fact, River Moon had already been blessed by Xu Shenxing with the 'Blessing of the Sacred Domain' (Otherwise, it would not be able to be used as a vehicle to travel between worlds), so the black snow did not affect it at all. But because the enemy was a bit special, just in case, Xu Shenxing still told Mo Li.
"Leave it to me."
The expressionless Jasmine who was being held in his arms replied.
So Xu Shenxing stood in front of everyone and faced the black tide of monsters.
"Mr. Brave Warrior, be careful of those monsters … they can't be killed!"
Yi Qing struggled to sit up and leaned against River Moon's window to warn Xu Shenxing.
"Ah, that's probably the case for you guys." Xu Shenxing turned to look at Yi Qing at a forty-five degree angle. "No, it's about the same for me until half a year ago …"
Then, he punched out, and the black tide of monsters seemed to have crashed into an invisible wall. Not only did it abruptly stop, it was even sent flying back.
The few monsters at the front were also reduced to ashes.
That's right, they did not collapse into lines, but completely disappeared!
"Those who have not experienced or witnessed the Age of Destruction cannot harm it … Did they send me to Seve Adrian's world just to set the stage for this? Even if it's just the aftershocks or the echoes, it counts as having witnessed the Age of Destruction. Could it harm these things that are also the aftershocks? " Xu Shenxing retracted his fist and looked at the monsters that attacked again without fear. He muttered to himself, "No, for me and this world, these guys should be an omen."
"An omen from the Age of Destruction."
