The space outside the Fifth Ring was very lively during this period of time!
Humans, Winged People, Zerg, Void Beasts, everyone was mixed together, fighting and killing, chasing and escaping!
In order to prevent the invaders from entering the Fifth Ring, the Fifth Ring cultivators rushed out of the boundary without hesitation and fought with the invaders on countless battlefields!
What made the invaders happy was that in this kind of guerrilla warfare, the sharpest force in the Fifth Ring was not there. This gave them the determination to continue fighting! Although the remaining two Sword Vein forces were also very powerful, they were not as strong as Xuanyuan in terms of strength, and their numbers were even more pitiful. For a group like them who won by numbers, they were not fatal!
The Heng River people did not lie to them! Otherwise, after learning their lesson once, they might not have fought to the death. Of course, they might not fight to the death now either. Even if they were not humans, they still understood the word 'control'!
If they could win, they would fight. If they could not win, they would run!
For this reason, the three forces had also coordinated with each other. They all agreed that the most likely way to fall into the trap was to attack the Fifth Ring! The Void Beasts were especially insistent on this point! Therefore, it was their specialty to wander around the Fifth Ring and endlessly harass the Fifth Ring!
What was harassment? When thousands of them gathered together, that was called a decisive battle! Humans were the best at organizing. They were crafty and cunning, so avoiding a large-scale battle with the Fifth Ring army was also a consensus among them!
Usually, there were hundreds of Winged People, Void Beasts, and small groups of insects. The invaders were divided into dozens of groups of various sizes. They weaved in and out of the void, pulling back and forth, causing the Fifth Ring cultivators to be in a sorry state!
The humans thought there would be a decisive battle! For the first time, the invaders felt superior in terms of intelligence!
There were no Heng River cultivators to command them here. They acted according to their instincts. Instead, they fought very confidently, like fish in water! This made them even more certain of one thing: humans could only lead human troops. They, as foreign species, had to rely on themselves!
After failing to find the main force of the invaders, the Fifth Ring humans finally began to divide their forces. They had no choice but to divide their forces. Large armies were not flexible enough. How could they catch these scattered groups that did not fight head-on?
The real battle began in this situation. The Fifth Ring had two hundred people, three hundred people in a battle group. They also divided into dozens of battle groups. This was not all of their strength, but because they had to leave a portion of their strength to defend the Fifth Ring, they could only bring out so many people who were good at fighting.
When everyone was on the move, the gap between them was obvious. The invaders who had spent their entire lives wandering in the Void had fully demonstrated their talent in guerrilla warfare, leaving the humans under great pressure and running for their lives!
They did not suffer many losses, but their morale was declining. This was only the beginning. It was conceivable that they had lost the most powerful mobile Swordsman army, lost forty Sun Gods, and had the aftereffects of the previous battle at the Fifth Ring. They also had to leave some strength to defend their home. When all these factors were combined, it was reasonable for them to fight like this!
However, humans were good at organizing. Their guerrilla warfare was not completely aimless running around. Instead, they cooperated with each other, had support, and had an overall movement pattern. Therefore, it was difficult for the invaders to fight a battle of annihilation. Both sides had the same mentality. If they could not win, they would run. Everyone did this. There was nothing to be ashamed of!
There were also people who were good at fighting in small human armies!
For example, there were several teams with Supreme Sages as their foundation, several teams formed by the Three Pure Ones, and a few powerful orthodoxies. There were two teams from the Weijian Mountain, and one from the Firmament Sword Sect … They cooperated with each other very well. They attacked separately, covered and intercepted, and surrounded the enemy to attack reinforcements.
It was the role of these elite teams that maintained the morale of the humans. Although the morale of the humans was declining, they did not disperse. They were dispirited but not useless!
The invaders had suffered great losses several times because of the cooperation of these teams. When it came to cooperation, there was always a gap between them and the humans. It was the kind that could not be bridged. Especially when they had three different tribes that did not belong to each other!
The most disgusting thing was that because of the repeated failures on the battlefield, the Fifth Ring people had set up a Massacre Temple in the void to vent their anger!
What was a Massacre Temple? The appearance of this term could be traced back to ancient times. That was the period when the foreign species and humans fought fiercely against each other. They regarded each other as mortal enemies and would easily exterminate each other. Many foreign species died during this period. Of course, many human domains were also destroyed.
A Massacre Temple was a place where these hateful humans piled up the foreign species' corpses after they won a victory. They glued thousands of corpses together into a huge pyramid to show off their achievements, power, and determination!
This was a pain in the hearts of the foreign species from ancient times that could never be removed!
Eventually, the mutated beasts were beaten into submission. Since then, humans rarely did such evil deeds anymore. Slowly, they disappeared from the world until now.
But this time, in the guerilla warfare outside the Fifth Ring, the humans flew into a rage out of humiliation and used this method to vent their anger. If this could be tolerated, what could be tolerated?
Although the scale of the Massacre Temple was not large, its appearance affected the mood of the humans! It was the source of strength for the foreign species to unite against a common enemy!
Under such an outbreak, other than a few powerful teams, most of the human teams lacked courage in battle and collapsed at the first touch. There were few times when they fought to the death.
The balance of the war was slowly tilting towards the invaders. But even so, they were very determined not to go to the Fifth Ring to seek death. There must be fresh troops in the Fifth Ring, as well as countless traps!
War was a contest of mentality! The so-called constant victory was to cultivate confidence. More often than not, more often than not, more often than not, more often than not. All of this required a process of cultivation! After a period of guerilla warfare, the higher-ups of the foreign species were delighted to see their own race's morale rising. They were full of confidence. This also meant stronger combat power and fiercer fighting spirit!
This was a good thing!
But there were also areas that were not coordinated, such as the few Massacre Temples!
There were now three Massacre Temples in a spacious planetary system. They were arranged in the shape of an equilateral triangle. Based on the nature of the humans and the habits of the human Cultivators, the real Massacre Temple should be a triangular cone formed by four Massacre Temples. Only then would it be perfect!
This was a bad habit from the ancient times. Its true meaning could no longer be verified. But humans had a compulsive memory. If they did not arrange it properly, something would be missing, and there would be no sense of ritual!
The foreign species also understood this point, so they repeatedly instructed their subordinates not to go to that area so as to prevent the fourth Massacre Temple from being arranged!
It was not that they were stupid and did not know to destroy the three Massacre Temples that had been arranged. The foreign species also had their own beliefs and bottom line. One thing they had in common was their respect for the dead. When these skeletons were firmly glued together by the humans using some unknown method, the foreign species had no other choice but to destroy these skeletons!
But destroying the skeletons was an attack on their beliefs. So, they could only do this for the time being. They would find a chance to deal with these skeletons after the war ended!
Around the fourth Massacre Temple, both sides began to fight openly and covertly, slowly forming the main theme of this guerilla warfare!
