Strong winds howled in the vast vast wilderness. High up in the sky, the Tai Ah Divine City's City Lord and the Shepherd Boy looked at each other from afar.
The Tai Ah City Lord was at the nostrils of the divine turtle. He felt that the divine turtle's nostrils were like two huge volcanic craters, spewing out scorching hot air.
The middle-aged scholar sighed. He had spent 90% of his life in the Divine Wilderness, yet he did not know that there was such a terrifying behemoth in the Divine Wilderness. It had to be said that this was a form of sorrow.
"Human, you seem to have something to say to me?" The Shepherd Boy held the bamboo flute and stood up from the divine turtle's head. He smiled at the middle-aged scholar, "You are not bad. Under the pressure of the Dragon Turtle True Spirit, you are still able to remain calm. With your cultivation level, it is extremely rare!"
At this moment, the middle-aged scholar was holding a sword in his hand. His clothes were flapping in the strong winds.
"Dragon Turtle True Spirit …" The middle-aged scholar shook his head gently, "I see. When I was roaming the Divine Wilderness, I heard people mention primordial true spirits."
"Primordial species have a trace of ancient sacred beast's bloodline, but it is extremely thin, hence they are called species. As for primordial true spirits, their bloodline is much thicker than primordial species. They can even manifest the forms of ancient sacred beasts and divine beasts, hence why they are called true spirits. "
"Dragon Turtle True Spirit must be a descendant of the Dragon Turtle …"
The legendary Dragon Turtle was a divine beast. It had a dragon's head and a turtle's body. It was one of the nine sons of the True Dragon.
The Dragon Turtle was huge in size and had immense strength. It could carry a star on its back!
"Not bad. Although you were born in this remote place, you are quite knowledgeable." The Shepherd Boy was still smiling.
"You … are not human?" The middle-aged scholar looked at the Shepherd Boy and asked. He had long suspected it.
The Shepherd Boy shook his head gently, "No, I am from the Desolate race! My appearance is no different from a human's. The only difference is that we can communicate with desolate beasts. "
Desolate race! Communicate with desolate beasts!
Many of the warriors on the city walls had never heard of such a race.
But the middle-aged scholar knew that in this world, humans were not the only race. There were other races, and some of them were even bigger than humans!
"Desolate race … I see. May I ask you, why do you want to annihilate my Tai Ah Divine Kingdom?"
"Because I need to do something …" The Shepherd Boy shook his head slightly. "I do not wish to destroy Tai Ah, but unfortunately, the few countries around the Divine Wilderness are hindering me from doing this. Therefore, I can only destroy them!"
The Shepherd Boy casually said these words. On the Divine City's walls, the hearts of the people jumped when they heard this. In order to do one thing, he wanted to destroy several countries!?
One had to know that there were hundreds of millions of lives in the large countries around the Divine Wilderness! He wanted to kill all of them with just a few words?!
"You slaughtered billions of living beings for what you did?" The middle-aged scholar's voice sank as he gripped the sword in his hand tightly.
"So what?" The Shepherd Boy gently stroked the piccolo. "Everything in the world nourishes man, but man has no virtue to repay the heavens! Humans receive the gift of nature, but what they consider is only their own self-interest. "
"You demand limitless. Billions of humans demand even more. For the sake of survival, don't you slaughter other living beings at all times? And the number you kill far exceeds the number of you humans. "
"The Heavens and Earth are heartless. They treat all living beings as dogs. In front of a higher Heavenly Dao, humans are no different from pigs and dogs. You slaughter other living beings because you are strong. Other living beings slaughter you because they are stronger. This can be said to be a part of the Heavenly Dao's law of survival of the fittest."
"Not only you, even a Great World will be destroyed … Creation, Existence, Destruction, and Destruction are part of the Heavenly Dao."
The Shepherd Boy said these words calmly. When the middle-aged scholar heard this, he felt a chill in his heart. Although he was unwilling to admit it, he had to admit that what the Shepherd Boy said made sense.
In front of a higher Heavenly Dao, so what if billions of living beings were slaughtered? The collision of two stars would similarly kill billions of living beings!
However, who could say that the stars were cruel?
"In that case, there is nothing for us to talk about." The middle-aged scholar let out a long sigh.
"What should be destroyed will eventually be destroyed …" The Shepherd Boy said faintly, "If you leave now, you can still live. I admire you. Your life should not end here."
"It's impossible for me to leave … It's mine. I can't avoid it." The middle-aged scholar drew his sword. The sword was four feet long and its cold beam seemed to freeze the sunlight.
On top of the Divine City's walls, the Seven Star Pagoda Owner also let out a long sigh. He took out a lance from his interspatial ring.
Everyone could sense the difficulty of this battle. This was a battle to the death. It was destined that many of them would die here!
"Yi Yun, I'll take you away!"
Just as the situation was tense, Cang Yan's Yuan Qi transmission entered Yi Yun's ears.
"What?" Yi Yun was stunned. And at this moment, Cang Yan's hand had already grabbed Yi Yun's shoulder. Not only Yi Yun, there were also Yao Dao, Yang Qian, as well as the Yun Long Divine Kingdom's Bai, Feng Lin, Qianshui and company. There were law-enforcers and Elders who were prepared to take them away.
"We … are not participating in the battle?"
Fatty Qianshui said with a trembling voice. His voice was clearly trembling. He was after all a youth. When had he ever experienced such a scene?
Facing the Shepherd Boy and the gigantic dragon turtle, it would be a lie if Fatty said he was not afraid. An existence at that level could turn him to dust with a wave of their hands!
Now, Fatty was in a dilemma.
On one hand, he did not want to stay in the Tai Ah Divine City. It would be best if he could slip away.
However, he couldn't bring himself to run away in the face of battle. After all, there were still many people guarding the top of the city wall!
"You will be sending yourselves to your deaths if you participate in the battle. It is meaningless. The City Lord had previously instructed me that if the Tai Ah Divine City cannot be saved, then I will take you away!"
No matter which faction it was, the younger generation was the future. How could they be sacrificed for nothing?
If their country was destroyed, there was still a chance of rebuilding it in the future by relying on the younger generation that could grow up.
Yi Yun, Bai and Feng Lin fell silent. There were emotions and rationality in everything. They did not want to run away, but staying behind would only mean dying in a meaningless manner.
As for Fatty Qianshui, he looked fearless. He gritted his teeth and said, "We are warriors too. How can we leave our seniors to fight a bitter battle here? We cannot leave!"
Fatty Qianshui said with a strong sense of righteousness. Cang Yan rolled his eyes at Fatty Qianshui. He was shrewd with age, so how could he not notice that Fatty's face had turned pale from fright?
"Then you can stay and let the others leave."
Cang Yan could not be bothered to speak with the timid fatty. At this moment, they had to race against time. If not, these elites would not be able to leave.
Fatty Qianshui was speechless. He opened his mouth, but could not say a word.
Yi Yun's expression turned serious. At this moment, he no longer had the mood to laugh at Qianshui. He said worriedly, "Senior Cang Yan, for us to leave, are you already prepared …"
"Pui Pui Pui!" Cang Yan interrupted Yi Yun midway, "Don't jinx it. Who would want to die if they could live?"
"All these years, the Tai Ah Divine City has accumulated large amounts of desolate bone relics and strategic reserves. With the sword and saber tomb's array, we can still hold on for a while. We sages and human lords cannot retreat. The Tai Ah Divine City is a natural stronghold to stop the beast horde. Without the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom, the beast horde will enter the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom's hinterlands. There will be no more obstacles, and they can move forward. "
"Although I also want to escape, I have lived for so long. I still need my old face. The Divine Kingdom has helped me reach the sage realm. I only have a few years left to live, so it's not a loss to repay this debt of gratitude! But you are different. Your survival is of the greatest value to the Divine Kingdom! "
When Cang Yan said this, he suddenly laughed heartily, "Yes, when a man dies, a bird will face the sky. If I don't die, I will live for tens of thousands of years. Whatever happens, it will happen. Besides, I might not necessarily die!"
As Cang Yan said this, he felt like he was saying his last words. He slapped himself again, "F * * k, why is it getting more and more ridiculous? According to the City Lord's plan, we still have a high chance of surviving! Now, all of you leave quickly! "
As Cang Yan said this, he and a Yun Long Divine Kingdom Elder began to arrange for the young cultivators to leave.
Now was not the time to be pretentious. Although the Divine City had a large array protecting it, who knew if the array could withstand the Dragon Turtle True Spirit's attack?
Staying behind might even distract the Tai Ah Divine City's City Lord and the Seven Star Pagoda Owner. If they still had to protect them, then it would not be worth it!
"In the first level of the central divine tower, a short distance teleportation array has been set up. After teleporting away, there will be an airship waiting for you!"
Not only Yi Yun, Bai and the other elites, even the other cultivators in the Tai Ah Divine City were making arrangements to leave. More than 95% of them, like the first year cultivators like Wen Yu, had already made arrangements to leave a month ago.
Originally, the reason why Yi Yun, Bai and the other elites were left behind was to let them experience the beast horde if possible, so that they could gain some experience.
But the development of the situation had exceeded the expectations of the Sages from the four factions. Training in the beast horde had become impossible.
With the teleportation array in front of them, the cultivators who were left behind began to leave through the teleportation array. Luo Huo 'er sneakily mixed into the crowd. She led her maid servant Dong' er and lowered her head in an attempt to enter the teleportation array.
But just as she walked in front of the teleportation array, she suddenly heard a dry cough.
"Miss Luo, please wait."
Eh?
Luo Huo 'er jumped in fright. She turned her head and saw Cang Yan smiling at her.
"What … What are you doing?"
Luo Huo 'er felt that the old man's smile was filled with ill intentions.
"Sorry, the City Lord has specially instructed that you cannot leave, Miss Luo."
"Why?" Luo Huo 'er was speechless. Anyone could leave, but she couldn't?
Cang Yan was also helpless. Unless it was absolutely necessary, why would a bunch of Sages make things difficult for a young lady?
