“Someone is finally fleeing!”
“Taowu” scanned past everyone with his large, lone eye. “Are you going to continue resisting the will of a god?”
The brutal and vicious spirit filled the entire battlefield. No one had the courage to attack him anymore.
Le Tian had a head full of grey hair now. His appearance had become very elderly. “If this continues, it’ll be far more than just half of us. Is it really a situation of certain death?”
Under the terrifying pressure, Ke Xin finally gave into her urge to shrink back. She communicated, “Senior sister, let’s retreat!”
Before Dai Mengfan could answer her, “Taowu” shattered her hopes in a single sentence. “Surrendering is the only way to live, as I’ll kill whoever that flees.”
Tu Wancheng’s wickedness and attentiveness was completely revealed with that. If he began a massacre, he could kill another two or three direct disciples at most. The others could always use the opportunity to slip away, and “Taowu” could not chase after them. As a result of both a formation and army qi, he could not travel too far away from the demonfolk camp and the Twelve Citadel Demon Formation of the Ominous.
But with what he said, the direct disciple who retreated first would definitely die. That had pinned down everyone here, leaving them completely up to his whim.
This region still technically belonged to the Demon domain. The invisible laws of the world constantly influenced the will of the cultivators. Perhaps it was usually nothing, but it became especially frightening at a time like this. The mental pressure from the Demon God and the great terrors of life and death weighed heavily on everyone’s hearts.
Ke Xin’s expression changed. She could not fight or flee, which put her in an extremely awkward position. Demonic thoughts immediately sprang forth in her mind. She understood the reason for all of this, yet there was nothing she could do about it. Once her mind swayed, her powers would begin to sway as well.
With each passing moment, they grew weaker, like they were sinking into a swamp, unable to even put up a struggle. All they could do was watch helplessly as they were swallowed by the grime.
“I can spare your life as long as you’re willing to accept the blessing of the demonic heavens and fight for the Demon domain from here on out!”
The expressions of the direct disciples changed. That was making them become Demon Sovereigns. If almost all the Human Sovereigns of the Myriad sect defected to the Demon domain together, that would be an utterly shocking scandal.
Tu Wancheng sneered inside, These foolish cowards. He had never planned on sparing any of them. Instead, he wanted to take them down in one fell swoop and kill them all. By then, he would definitely receive the blessings of the demonic heavens. This was a heaven-sent opportunity for him to break through to Heretic God. If he could not become a Heretic God, then if that woman Chao Tianjiao came looking for him some day in the future, would it not be his death?
Thinking up to there, he could not help but shiver inside. He only relaxed slightly when he recalled the temporal difference between the six realms of sa?sāra. If she were bold enough to appear right now, he would definitely make her die here and now!
The sky froze under “Taowu’s” watch, but the intense battle on the ground continued. The fearless warriors turned into asura, indulging themselves in the slaughter without any notion of exhaustion, fighting as hard as they could.
The Xuanwu army continued to advance as the flood of metal surged violently.
The Xuanwu Army God had collapsed already, but the spirit of the army remained. Instead, they could take back the army qi and condense a series of war beasts, devouring all of the demonfolk in their path like they were unstoppable.
The army qi gathered by the demonfolk was all concentrated on “Taowu”. They had more than ten times as much, but they struggled to fend off the flood of metal.
Before they knew it, all of the direct disciples cast their gazes down towards the ground. If this continued, “Taowu” would rapidly weaken. They might even be able to make it to the Twelve Citadel Demon Formation of the Ominous and turn the entire situation around. The powerful Human Sovereigns were forced to place their hopes in these mortals.
Tu Wancheng glanced over. He had already placed the situation under his control, so it was time for him to clean up these ants. They were measly mortals, and they actually thought they could change the situation? He did not think these cowards had the courage to use this opportunity to flee.
However, Dai Mengfan communicated silently, “If he strikes to destroy the Xuanwu army, we’ll retreat together. Each to their own!”
He needed no other move. “Taowu” raised his huge hand again, swinging it towards the Xuanwu army. However, his lone eye was fixed on the direct disciples, which left them extremely nervous.
Boom!
A grey stone tower sailed through the air, right towards “Taowu’s” head.
“Taowu” struck the tower and sent rock flying everywhere. Dust filled the air, and he staggered half a step back.
“What?” Tu Wancheng’s expression changed, and he raised his guard. Regular Human Sovereigns definitely did not possess such power. “Don’t tell me?”
Black Cloud city was empty. The tower seemed to rise up by itself before hurling itself over.
In the pitch-black cavern, there was a flash of red light. A pair of scarlet eyes appeared, like it was hiding a vicious beast.
A large hand grabbed the edge of the cavern. A figure leapt out, landing in front of Black Cloud city loudly.
Dai Mengfan said in surprise, “Li Qingshan!”
Li Qingshan had transformed into the physique of the demonic and divine. He stood three hundred metres tall, but unlike the past, he maintained his human form.
Apart from the pair of scarlet eyes and flying hair, he possessed no other characteristics of a daemon.
He extended his left hand. It was a human hand, not the claw of the tiger demon. Even he found it rather strange.
A wondrous power surged through his body, scorching hot and filled with life, even suppressing the powers of the other transformations.
An eager voice beckoned him, “Come, come, come!” It was like a mother beckoning her wandering child.

The voice came from the sky!
He could not help but raise his head. A blood-red swirl suddenly expanded above, rapidly growing larger.
The Frenzy Flower Blade of Paths’ End trembled in his hand. The Blade Spirit of Frenzy Flower asked with a smile, “How does it feel to be an asura?”
“Me? An asura?”
“I’ve said that you’re a natural warrior. The Asura realm will always have its doors open to you.”
In this Asura Field, true warriors would temporarily gain some special characteristics and powers of asura. The heavier their battle spirit, the firmer their willpower, the more special characteristics they would receive, and the greater their power would become. Even if they fell in battle, their souls would enter the Asura realm and reincarnate as true asura.
Li Qingshan had basically obtained all the powers and special characteristics of asura. The door to the Asura realm was open to him as well. He could directly enter the Asura realm even without dying in battle, immediately gaining even more strength and becoming blessed as a child of the Asura realm.
Li Qingshan smiled. “I see, but I don’t like to be someone’s son.”
The Blade Spirit of Frenzy Flower said excitedly, “Then go conquer the Asura realm and become the king of asura, and then fell heaven! Kid, you have a chance, a very good chance!”
“Fell heaven?”
He too had heard of the grudge between the Asura realm and the Heaven realm. Deva were the final enemies of asura, the ultimate battlefield in this endless war of blood. However, he still was not an asura yet, so he felt mostly indifferent.
“I’ll cut down this big fella first!”
Once again, he strode towards “Taowu”.
Tu Wancheng was shocked. Where is he getting the courage from? Even if he had not killed him with that punch, he was close to death. Instead of using the opportunity to flee, how did he find the courage to re-enter the battlefield instead?
The blood-red swirl in the sky spun faster and faster. As he moved forwards, he was blessed by the heavens as if he gave off an invisible halo. Everyone’s gazes gathered on him.
On the other side of the battlefield, the razing fire incinerated all of the flesh, blood, and filth.
With the general’s return, the flames of war blazed once more!
