The elders were pouring their spirit force into the teleportation rune.
Just when the space was about to be opened, a powerful force segregated the region of space they occupied.
The silver light from the runes dimmed down.
At the same time, twenty-three cosmic system states’ chis rose up from around them.
The four looked around seriously.
The Blade Demon King and his allies were looking coldly at them. The elders immediately realized the situation.
“Blade Demon Race?”
They glanced across the other races, and their hearts sank. The Blade Demon Race was silent during this time. Hence, they failed to discover anything.
Unbeknownst to them, the enemy had set out powerful beings to hunt them.
However, glancing across the cosmic system states, the four elders sneered.
Only one representative from the Blood Claw Race and Half Demon Race was a peak cosmic system state. The rest were level-5 cosmic system states or above.
If this was a month ago, they would be in trouble, but now it was different.
This power wouldn’t be enough to subdue the humans.
The Blade Demon King mocked, “Hahaha! Old farts, didn’t expect this ambush, did you?”
In the next second, he didn’t even give the elders a chance to speak. He had to kill them right away.
The Blade Demon King said, “They are all here. Let’s kill them now to prevent any accidents!”
The other cosmic system states released their power. Their terrifying spirit force shattered the nearest planets and asteroids.
The elders smiled. “Attack!”
Elder Nangong exploded with golden light.
Saint Shenwu’s armor emitted some kind of invisible wave.
Saint Lin Dong froze the space around him.
Elder Lin glowed with silver light as beams flashed in his eyes.
The four human elders released their peak cosmic system state power. It shocked the surrounding cosmic system states.
‘Oh shit?’
Four peak cosmic system states?!
This wasn’t the same as what they agreed.
Everyone’s expressions changed, especially the Blade Demon King.
He roared, “Impossible!”
The Blade Demon Race and the Human Race had been fighting for so long.
‘How could they reach the peak cosmic system state without them knowing?’
This improvement was too major to go unnoticed.
‘Wait… is he having a nightmare?!’
Heras snarled, “Stop them! We have twenty-three people, and two of us are peak cosmic system states! We can hold them off!”
The peak cosmic system state from the Blood Claw Race emitted a bloody light.
The crowd could even hear the howls of seas of blood.
The bloody light focused on his blood claw. “If you don’t want to die, use your full power!”
All the cosmic system states burned their spirit force and their attacks clashed with the attacks of the elders.
‘Rumble…’
An explosive force spread out across all directions.
Even at the border, the Shenwu Army felt the clash.
They looked in that direction with confusion. “What’s going on there?”
Even the star states could feel the battle barely, but what shocked them, even more, was that the insectoid lair had disappeared. Yet, a battle still ensued.
The four elders were peak cosmic system states. They were facing plenty of enemies, but they had the upper hand.
After crushing the combined attacks, the remnants of their own attack pushed the enemies back. A level-5 cosmic system state from the Black Smoke Race and someone from the Blade Demon Race were swept by the force and died on the spot.
Heras’ face became ugly.
He painstakingly took out a flashing demonic rune. He inserted his spirit force, and an explosive chi rose up.
This was a cosmic cloud state chi.
This was his strongest card.
He thought about how the Blade Demon King swore that the human cosmic system states weren’t particularly strong.
He should never believe this Blade Demon King again.
Perhaps what they will gain from the Human Race can’t even make up for their loss.
He was overflowing with killing intent.
If the Blade Demon Race couldn’t give him satisfactory compensation, he wouldn’t mind reporting this to the upper races and beat the Blade Demon Race back to their base!
Cosmic cloud state ripples spread out. This was not an attack a peak cosmic system state could stop.
They were truly the Half Demon Race!
Wealthy indeed!
Elder Nangong and his companion sensed the chi. The four of them looked at each other. Then, Saint Shenwu grinned. “I’ll do it.”
He took out the pale rune. This was a one-time-use Earth Shocking Blow rune.
Lu Ze gave each of them quite a few.
He inserted his spirit force into the rune. Immediately, the pale spirit light shot up and also reached the cosmic cloud state.
Heras and the army: “???”
They were in disbelief.
The Blade Demon King exclaimed, “No way! How could the Human Race have such powerful cards?”
‘Is this still the same Human Race?’
His old opponents suddenly became peak cosmic system states and now even took out cosmic cloud state cards.
‘Is this still the race that was just two thousand years old?’
The others took a deep look at the Blade Demon King.
The Blade Demon King shuddered, but he could swear with his soul that his information was correct.
A pale fist and a flashing demonic palm formed.
The two clashed again.
‘Rumble!!’
The space was ravaged once more.
The palm fist dimmed down while the black palm pushed forward towards the elders.
Heras breathed easy.
The trump card awarded by the upper race seemed stronger than what the Human Race had.
Saint Shenwu’s expression changed. “It’s not enough. Use another one!”
Saint Lin Dong also used a pale rune, and another pale fist formed.
Heras’ smile stiffened.
The others were also dumbfounded.
‘Another one?’
‘Just how many runes did the Human Race have?’
When the other fist clashed with the palm, a shockwave rang throughout the area.
Saint Shenwu and Lin Dong became extremely weak. They used their own spirit force for the rune.
They inserted almost all their power in it. Otherwise, it wouldn’t reach the cosmic cloud state.
