All the mortals trembled and fell into a state of endless fear and despair when they saw the blood tide engulfing them from all directions.
Even the totem statues of the various countries and tribes were trembling.
In Daoless City, the scene that they saw through the Heavenly Chosen List shocked everyone, making them feel as if they were in the middle of it.
In the face of such a terrifying catastrophe, the contestants could only control the mortals with their thoughts, unable to display their own strength. How could the mortals resist?
"Blood Valley's final is really too difficult. The test is already so astonishing before entering Slaughter Mountain. How many people can enter the official finals?"
Everyone was shocked and cried out in alarm.
"Everyone, stay in your position and fight to the death. Once the thousand-year time limit is up, there's no need to worry about the blood tide!"
Dongxuan's glorious voice transmitted to all the totems.
Only then did the contestants manage to pull themselves together and issue orders to their countries and tribes to defend Glorious Empire's defense line with their lives.
"The real test has finally arrived!"
Su Fang's thoughts resided in the divine crow statue, looking at the blood tide rolling over with a solemn gaze.
In order to deal with the blood tide, Glorious Empire had built a long defense line. Each country and tribe defended a section, and the divine crow tribe was arranged to be in the most dangerous position because its combat strength was the strongest.
They had waited in fear for three months.
The blood tide, which was composed of countless non-humankind beings and Blood Monsters, surged towards the defensive line like a real flood.
Boom!
Countless figures pounced on the defense line like raging waves crashing against the shore.
Most of the foreign races did not look much different from humans, but they exuded an evil aura that blended with Blood Valley's aura. Their strength was ten times stronger than mortals.
What was even more terrifying was that the blood monsters were not only ferocious and terrifying, but also extremely difficult to kill. Although their strength was limited to the height of the mortal world, they were much stronger than mortals and foreign races. They could also devour life to become stronger.
At this moment, the foreign races and blood monsters numbered in the trillions. It was impossible for there to be so many inside Blood Valley in the past. Obviously, the organizers of Jiuxuan's Heavenly Chosen had deliberately cultivated them over the years to test the contestants.
At this moment, driven by Blood Valley's will, these foreign races and blood monsters had completely fallen into madness. They would not stop until the human race was completely annihilated.
A bloody and desperate battle unfolded on the long defensive line.
In Daoless City, the entire battle situation could be seen at a glance from the Chosen God List.
The Brilliant Empire's overall strength was undoubtedly the strongest. The main reason was that they had a large number of people, were well-trained, and had much better equipment than the other allied armies. Thus, the fighting strength they displayed was the strongest. Most of the human race's defensive line was supported by the Brilliant Empire.
In terms of individual strength, there was no doubt that the green python was stronger.
The last time he was severely injured in the Divine Crow Tribe, after so many years of recuperation, the green python had long recovered to its peak state. At this moment, relying on its powerful strength, it was displaying its might in the Blood Tide, sweeping in all directions, looking very awe-inspiring.
The strength displayed by the State of Ye and the State of Li was also incomparably shocking.
In the past few years, the number of puppet soldiers produced by the two countries had reached a million. Their combat power was extremely shocking, and they were especially eye-catching in the battle at the defensive line.
Compared to the Ye Country and the Li Country, the Divine Crow Tribe's current performance was not bad, but it was not as dazzling. It was obvious that they were conserving their strength.
"Dongxuan is glorious. You are indeed a genius of Tiange, a talent of the Dongxuan Divine Region!"
"If the Dongxuan Divine Region is really invaded by the foreign tribes, it looks like we can only rely on a peerless genius like Dongxuan's glory!"
"Although Ye Feixuan and Li Sheng are extraordinary, their methods are too cruel. They are far inferior to Dongxuan's glory!"
Dongxuan's powerhouses were praising Dongxuan's glory. Many cultivators in Daoless City were also praising Dongxuan's brilliance.
"I thought that Su Fang would be able to shine brightly. I didn't expect him to be conserving his strength. He is so selfish, he won't be able to achieve anything great!"
"Humans are afraid of comparison, goods are afraid of comparison. I used to think that Su Fang was a powerful character. I didn't expect him to still be conserving his strength at the critical moment."
"It looks like Su Fang's so-called sacrifice to stop the foreign tribes' invasion and save Dongxuan's human race was probably a sham!"
Supreme Elder Chunqiu and Great Elder Zhangsun took the opportunity to belittle Su Fang. Even the cultivators of the Forsaken Barren Region, who used to see Su Fang as their savior, were rather critical of Su Fang's actions.
The war continued.
Every moment, there were people dying. Some tribes' totem statues were even annihilated.
In front of the defense line, corpses piled up like mountains. Some belonged to humans, some belonged to the foreign tribes.
The war lasted for three years. After paying a heavy price, the humans finally repelled the first wave of the blood tide.
Who knew …
Without giving the humans a chance to take a breather, the second wave of attack came.
This time, the Brilliant Empire brought out their trump card. Thousands of divine cannons were activated, releasing energy that blotted out the sky and covered the earth, enveloping the aliens and the blood monsters. An earth-shattering might erupted, easily repelling the second wave of attacks.
However, the Divine Cannons also had a fatal flaw. They required blood evil ores as energy.
In the Blood Valley, blood evil ores were extremely rare treasures. Even with the Glorious Empire's influence, they had only collected about ten thousand ores after so many years.
This also meant that the Divine Cannons could only be fired ten times before they became completely useless.
Under the waves of attacks from the foreign tribes and the blood monsters, the Divine Cannons finally ran out of energy and became completely useless.
However, the blood tide's attack was also clearly weakened. As long as the humans clenched their teeth and persevered for a few more rounds, they would be able to completely resolve the crisis of the blood tide.
After another wave of attack was repelled, the foreign tribes and blood monsters that hadn't attacked for a long time started again. The human defense line was filled with cheers.
Su Fang's consciousness was residing in the Divine Crow totem statue. His cold gaze shot out from the statue, looking into the distance with a serious expression.
"The organizers of the Jiuxuan's Heaven's Selection will definitely not let the participants end so easily. The final attack is about to arrive!"
Su Fang made the Divine Crow tribe raise their vigilance and prepare for another battle.
Indeed, as Su Fang predicted, after three days of silence, the blood tide formed by the foreign tribes and blood monsters once again swept over.
However, to Su Fang's surprise, the number of foreign tribes and blood monsters this time was clearly not as much as before. They stopped at a distance of thirty li from the Glorious Empire's defense line.
The humans were all puzzled. Countless pairs of eyes were looking at the foreign tribes and blood monsters.
Suddenly …
Puff! Puff!
The blood monsters suddenly attacked the foreign tribes and crazily devoured them.
Strangely, the foreign tribes didn't resist and allowed the blood monsters to devour them.
Soon, hundreds of millions of foreign tribes were devoured by the blood monsters.
Killing each other?
They didn't expect the blood monsters and foreign tribes to be killing each other!
Things weren't over yet.
After the blood monsters devoured all the foreign tribes, they started to devour each other again. After every devour, the blood monsters' aura would become even more majestic.
The number of blood monsters decreased rapidly until only one blood monster was left.
That blood monster was very strange. It was hundreds of meters tall, but it didn't have a head. Instead, it had four arms. Its body seemed to be made of fresh blood, and it was covered with countless killing marks and eighty-one killing star images.
The blood monster's navel suddenly split open and turned into a mouth. It let out a voice filled with killing intent, "Kill!"
A wave of killing intent rushed into the sky, enveloping the entire mortal world in its aura.
This headless blood monster was more than ten thousand times stronger than the previous blood monsters. Its aura had surpassed the limits of mortals. It had even surpassed the realm of Dao Zhen and Dao Lord. It had reached the level of Dao Lord.
In the mortal world, Dao Zhen Realm experts were almost invincible. Now, this blood monster had reached the level of Dao Lord. Who could resist it?
Kill!
Many contestants who were residing in the totem statues naturally knew the name of this headless blood monster … Kill!
The contestants were completely in despair.
Dongxuan Daozu had killed a foreign tribe expert and refined its corpse into a blood valley. The name of that foreign tribe expert was Kill.
The name of this headless blood monster was also Slaughter, which could only mean one thing. This headless blood monster was the incarnation of Slaughter's will, which devoured the life aura of the alien race and the evil blood aura of the Blood Valley.
If these contestants still had the strength, they would not be afraid of this headless blood monster.
However, the consciousness of the contestants was residing in the totem statues. Apart from the Demon Clan youth who had used the forbidden technique of the Demon Clan to create a clone by devouring life aura, the other contestants could not display any of their strength.
It's over!
It's completely over!
Not only the mortals, but all the contestants were in despair.
"Why isn't it over yet?"
Every contestant was looking forward to the end so that they could leave the mortal world as soon as possible.
"Kill!"
The headless blood monster shouted coldly from its navel and strode toward the defensive line.
Boom!
The headless blood monster waved its four arms and sent out four huge bloody palm prints that fell on the defensive line.
The defensive line, which was incomparably strong for the mortals, was now as fragile as tofu. It collapsed with a loud bang. There were countless casualties. The totem statues of the four contestants were also destroyed directly.
Many mortals were trembling with fear. Many of them were so scared that they knelt on the ground. Some who were not strong enough were scared to death.
"The Brilliant Empire's totem has escaped!"
Someone shouted loudly, waking everyone up from their shock and fear.
As expected, the totem statues of the Brilliant Empire quickly retreated to the back of the defensive line under the protection of a hundred thousand elite soldiers.
"Dongxuan's Brilliant Empire has escaped. What are we still doing here? Are we going to be buried with these mortals?"
"Let's go. We've already gotten our mountain tokens. As long as we can drag it out until the time limit of a thousand years, we'll have completed our mission. How can we stay here and die with these ants?"
Dongxuan's Brilliant Empire's escape made the other contestants follow suit. They selected elites from their nations and tribes to protect the totem statues and escape quickly.
The mortals who were already in a state of great panic were now in complete despair.
