Li Qingshan suddenly stiffened up, like a frog that had encountered a snake. He could not help but tremble slightly. A sense of terror rose up involuntarily, as if he was facing a natural enemy. Even though he was already mentally prepared, he still found the "monster" that had appeared before him unbelievable.
In comparison, Qiongqi's clone in the past was powerful, but it was still restricted by the laws of the world of the World of the Nine Provinces. Just Now, the demonic sky was terrifying, but it was chaotic and twisted after all. It lacked self-awareness.
However, not only did the Taowu Demon God's strength completely exceed the Human Emperor and Demon Emperor, but it even exceeded regular Human Immortals and Evil Gods. It was like a demon god had arrived in person, and it was filled with hostility.
Wan Jianfeng's hand trembled, and he suddenly gripped the hilt of his sword. "How can my sword cut through something like that?"
Dai Mengfan opened her eyes. The nightmare had come true, and it was even more terrifying than ever before. It was as if she had returned to her childhood, turning back into the little girl who was afraid of the wind and shadows. She sighed with a bitter smile. "That's why … I hate war."
On the other side of the battlefield, Huo Hua gazed at the colossal figure that connected the sky and said to Li Liehuo very seriously, "Let's just flee to the daemonic beast realm!"
Li Liehuo remained silent. He did not reply.
The air on the battlefield seemed to freeze, turning into twisted vortexes that dragged everyone into the abyss.
The moment Taowu appeared, before it had even struck, it had deterred everyone.
Normally, Tu Wancheng would have burst out laughing already, but right now, an even more powerful spirit pierced through his mind. It was proud, vicious, and forceful. It was also this spirit that pierced through the entire battlefield.
Taowu twisted its neck and opened its gaping mouth. Its great, hard voice rang through the surroundings.
"The world is heartless, and all life is worthless."
Millions of demonfolk called out together, "The world is heartless, and all life is worthless!" They were filled with resentment and fury, cursing the heartless world.
Taowu's existence immediately became even more consolidated, and its body stretched out even more. Its huge single eye swiveled around, and its gaze swept across the battlefield like a pillar of light.
Every single person. Whether it be the regular soldiers or true disciples, they all sank even deeper into the swamp of fear.
Taowu said again, "The saints are heartless, and all life is worthless." Looking down from above, humans were indeed as insignificant as ants. They crawled on the ground densely, so fragile and so fleeting.
"The saints are heartless, and all living beings are ants!"
Millions of demonfolk howled. They were willing to treat themselves as lowly ants. He was not afraid of death. A frenzied aura instantly overwhelmed the Xuanwu Army. Why would people with the will to live step onto such a tragic battlefield?
With just two sentences and sixteen words, Bi An had turned the situation around.
All the efforts that Li Qingshan and the others had put in from the beginning to the end seemed to be a joke. What perseverance and determination? What equality? In the face of absolute power, what meaning was there?
I called you an ant. You are an ant, even if you aren't!
In the end, 'Bi An' stared at the Black Tortoise God of War. His gaze seemed to pierce through the layers of military aura and see Li Qingshan. "I'm heartless too!"
These words, which did not contain any power, were like a huge wooden stick stabbing into his chest. A pure and unyielding spirit seemed to be able to suppress everything.
Boom! The Black Tortoise God of War twisted and blurred for a moment, and its military aura showed signs of dissipating.
"Oh no!" Li Qingshan was alarmed. The situation was already extremely bad. He was supported by the tremendous military aura, yet he still endured such great pressure, let alone the true disciples. Even the regular soldiers.
They all stared at the shadow above them blankly. They could not even see 'Bi An' in its entirety. Even the bravest of warriors shivered inside. If they had not formed a military formation and united will, 'Bi An' could have driven these hundreds of thousands of people into a frenzy with his spirit alone.
Li Qingshan knew that if this continued, the morale of the army would collapse very soon. The entire army would collapse. Several hundred thousand soldiers would be at the mercy of the enemy, and the enemy had not even truly done anything yet.
Faced with such dire straits, if it were someone else, they probably would have considered retreating already. However, the suppression instead roused his stubbornness, making him rise up with an even greater will to fight. His chest heaved several times as he bellowed out, "Advance!"
The Black Tortoise God of War advanced, charging at the demonfolk army alone just like Li Qingshan. He swung his blade at 'Bi An'!
His voice was like thunder, and his blade was like lightning, ripping apart the terrifying shadow cast by 'Bi An'. The morale of the army trembled as they looked at Li Qingshan, at their "war god".
The slash roused Tu Wancheng from his "sweet dream". He returned to his senses from the powerful spirit of the Bi An Demon God. He was both surprised and furious.
'Bi An' extended his hand and grabbed the blade. There was a hint of disbelief in his tough, furious voice. "You, actually dare to challenge a war god!?"
"Challenge?" Li Qingshan smiled. "No, I'm going to kill you!"
"Hah, just you?" Tu Wancheng laughed from extreme anger.
'Bi An''s' other arm shot through the air like a black dragon, reaching towards the Black Tortoise God of War's head with a huge, black hand.
With a thump, the space there trembled.
The Black Tortoise God of War's punch landed in the centre of the huge hand. Who knew how deep his feet sank into the ground.
Their physiques were like that of a child and a brawny man, but it was a contest of strength.
Li Qingshan gritted his teeth. "I'm not alone!" He roared, "Advance!"
Unknowingly, the army's morale that was on the verge of collapsing solidified again.
The general was the courage of the army! The soldiers woke up from their terror and murmured, "General!"
Tu Wancheng said viciously, "I'll grind you into dust!"
'Bi An' suddenly looked down, a demonic light shot out from its single eye and shrouded the Black Tortoise God of War.
The Black Tortoise God of War burned in the demonic light, its golden armor dimmed and its cloak became tattered, turning into ashes inch by inch.
His towering body was fiercely suppressed without the slightest bit of resistance. The soil behind his feet bulged up, forming two small hills, but he still didn't take a single step back.
Huo Hua was dumbfounded. "This kid … is crazy!"
Under the gaze of 'Bi An', once the Black Tortoise God of War collapsed, anyone could escape. Only Li Qingshan would definitely die.
However, Li Liehuo began to laugh. He laughed extremely happily and gave an order.
At the same time, Li Qingshan's desperate roars rang out from afar.
"Advance!"
The commandants of the five armies shuddered inside. He asked loudly, "Have you all forgotten the oath you swore last night?"
"We will never forget! We're willing to fight to the death with the general! "
"The general has given his orders! Advance! "
"Advance! Advance! Advance! "
Their ordinary faces actually shone with a light similar to Buddhism's "enlightenment". They were fearless, as if they were facing death with equanimity.
The war drums shook the sky, but the entire army fell silent instead. Only the clanging of armour against each other was filled with the determination to die. Following in Li Qingshan's footsteps, they advanced towards the unbelievably colossal 'Bi An', towards the army that occupied millions of demonfolk!
