Previously, he really hadn't thought of such a deep reason. But now that Ping had mentioned it, Xiao Chen finally understood why there hadn't been any response from Dingnan City even though the ancient race had been attacking the extreme north for so many days.
Now that Ping had mentioned it, all the doubts in his heart could be explained.
Inexplicably, Xiao Chen felt a little upset in his heart.
"If Dingnan City is also waiting for the ancient race to occupy the extreme north, then today, the ancient race will definitely be able to invade the north of the North River," Xiao Chen said in a low voice.
"That's inevitable. If the people of the extreme north resist with all their might, they might still have a chance of survival. Or they might even be able to delay for a period of time. But the more they retreat, the faster the ancient race's invasion will get," Ping said.
"Even if they can delay for a period of time today, in the end, they will still be unable to avoid the ancient race's annihilation." Xiao Chen sighed.
"The weak are prey to the strong, survival of the fittest. This is something that can't be helped." Ping was very open-minded.
As an Immortal King, he'd already seen too much life and death, and these things weren't really able to cause his mental state to fluctuate too much.
"In the end, this matter was caused by me," Xiao Chen said in a low voice.
Ping glanced at him and said with a smile, "Sir, you can't say that. Even if it wasn't because of you, it would have been because of other things in the future. In any case, the extreme north is a fat piece of meat. Sooner or later, they will make their move."
"That's not the same. If it wasn't because of me, I wouldn't care no matter what happens to them. But if it was because of me that these people of the extreme north have to face such a calamity, how can I feel at ease?" Xiao Chen shook his head.
Ping looked at Xiao Chen with some astonishment. "Sir, it's good to have a kind heart. But there are too many things in this world that can't be solved with kindness. You don't have to feel guilty or ashamed. "
"These people from the Northernmost Land came here after their macro world was invaded and destroyed. They had a moment of peace, and they never took the initiative to cause any trouble. Even when we came to look for trouble, they just tolerated it. They just wanted to live a peaceful life, but they didn't expect that this catastrophe was caused by me. How could I not feel a little ashamed?" Xiao Chen sighed again and again.
Apart from that, the murderous aura from these people had also brought great convenience and help to his cultivation of the Slayer Emperor Technique.
This made it impossible for Xiao Chen to sit back and do nothing.
"Sir, it is inevitable that the ancient race will take over the northern region. Even if you want to do something about it, you won't be able to do anything about it. It is better to just wait and see." Ping saw through Xiao Chen's thoughts and reminded him.
"Wait and see?" Xiao Chen smiled bitterly. "It would be better to just watch these people from the Northernmost Land get annihilated by the ancient race."
"Sir, it is natural selection, survival of the fittest. You don't have to pity these people too much." Ping was very calm.
Xiao Chen naturally understood this as well, so he felt a deep sense of helplessness.
The situation on the battlefield was indeed as Ping had said. These Immortal Kings from the Northernmost Land didn't really want to fight with their lives on the line. The Immortal Kings of the ancient race had already gained some advantage and were gradually occupying the north of the North River.
"It seems that these Immortal Kings of the Northernmost Land indeed lack the courage to fight with their lives on the line." Xiao Chen shook his head.
Some people would cherish their lives more after experiencing life and death, while some people would become even crazier after experiencing life and death. These were two different extremes. At present, it seemed that the people from the Northernmost Land belonged to the former. After experiencing the destruction of their macro world, they no longer had the desire to go crazy.
At this time, the three murderous auras had also been successfully condensed.
"Let's go first!" Xiao Chen said to Ping before leaving the place slowly.
Ping was completely confused the entire time. He could not understand what Xiao Chen was doing at all.
With his previous experience, fusing these three murderous auras was a walk in the park. It didn't take long before he succeeded.
This was also one of the unique characteristics of the Slayer Emperor Technique. As long as one could get started, there wouldn't be much of a problem in cultivating the lower nine levels.
As long as one could absorb enough murderous auras and successfully condense them, they would be able to fuse them.
Under Ping's troubled state, Xiao Chen brought him back to the banks of the North River.
The battle here was still going on.
However, even after fighting for so long, none of the Immortal Kings had died. In fact, none of them were even severely injured.
Even though it seemed like the battle was going on, none of them were truly fighting with their lives on the line.
Since the people of the Extreme North didn't want to fight with their lives on the line, the Immortal Kings of the Ancient Race didn't push them too far either. In any case, as long as they could occupy the area north of the North River, they would have achieved their goal.
Hence, with both sides harboring their own thoughts, the Immortal Kings of the Ancient Race only used half a day to cross the entire North River and arrive at the skies north of the North River.
"Hais, seems like this war is going to end soon." Xiao Chen sighed.
Right now, his emotions were a little complicated.
Some of it was a pity for the people of the Northern Lands, and some of it was a pity for himself.
This was because he had arrived way too late. This war had already lasted for more than five months. Yet, he had only arrived on the last day.
If he had arrived a few days earlier, he might have been able to cultivate a few more levels of the Slayer Emperor Technique.
"End? Sir, you're thinking too simply. This is just the beginning. "Ping laughed coldly.
"Didn't those Ancient Race fellas say that as long as we occupy the four territories north of the North River, they won't continue to attack us for the time being?" Xiao Chen was a little puzzled.
Before he made his move, Shang Ning had said this very clearly.
"Sir, don't tell me that you believe those Ancient Race fellas will keep their promise?" Ping's face was full of disdain.
"You mean …" Xiao Chen was slightly stunned. Then, his eyes brightened. "They will ignore their previous promise and directly launch a large-scale invasion?"
"That's inevitable. After they occupy the four most crucial territories north of the North River, how can they really give the people of the Extreme North time to rest? They will definitely conquer the entire Extreme North in the shortest time possible! "Ping said slowly.
"The reason why the people of the extreme north aren't risking their lives now is because of what the ancient race said before. It might be true that these guys aren't willing to risk their lives, but the ancient race won't give them more time. By the time the people of the extreme north react, if they want to sweep the extreme north again, they will have to pay an even greater price!"
"Those Ancient Race fellas have never been true to their words. It can be said that these people of the Extreme North have completely buried themselves because they believed Shang Ning's words."
