159: Chapter 159 Total War Breaks Out

Inside a massive territory resembling a lava Hell, a Purgatory Race lord with a sturdy build and emitting a powerful aura sat upon a throne.

His gaze fell upon a strange prop in his hand, a flash of hesitation crossing his eyes.

"Is it really worth using such a precious prop just to take down a Level 5 Lord?"

In front of this Purgatory Race lord, there was also a projection of a Sin Clan Lord.

Clearly, both parties were communicating through a communication prop.

"Aodaluo, do not hesitate any longer," the Sin Clan Lord slowly spoke.

"That Lin Xiao is not an ordinary Super-spec Lord. According to our judgment, if he is allowed to grow, there is a certain probability that he will become a Super-spec Lord no less than Blood Hoof and Shadow Devourer."

"Even if he is inferior to them, he will not be weaker than the S-rank talent First-Generation Lord of the Bull Demon Race and the Shadow Race."

"Allowing him to grow to a Seventh-order Lord will have a substantial probability of changing the battle situation of the Second Source Sea."

Blood Hoof was the strongest of the Bull Demon Race, and Shadow Devourer was the strongest of the Shadow Race.

These two First-Generation Lords were both the strongest Seventh-order Lord of the Five Great Races, surpassing other Super-spec Lord by a tier.

The Sin Clan Lord's evaluation of Lin Xiao was unexpectedly this high, which also startled the Purgatory Race lord.

Undeniably, if a Seventh-order Lord of Blood Hoof and Shadow Devourer's level appeared in the Human Race, it would inevitably change the battle situation of the Second Source Sea. Even if he were one level lower than the former two, the impact on the overall battle situation would not be small.

"If that is truly the case, then this person must be eliminated."

The Purgatory Race lord said coldly.

"There must be some extremely powerful secret on Lin Xiao's body, otherwise, it wouldn't cause the Human Race to invest so much in him."

The Sin Clan Lord said resolutely. In his view, besides the secrets existing within Lin Xiao himself, the massive investment of the Human Race was also indispensable for his strength to be this powerful.

The higher-ups of the Human Race were not fools. If he were merely an ordinary Super-spec Lord, how could they possibly invest so much? Were they not afraid that their investment would go down the drain?

The Five Great Races had been at war for many years, and the fallen Super-spec Lord were definitely not just one or two.

"Kyle, you are a good lobbyist."

"I have been persuaded by you."

The Purgatory Race lord finally made a decision.

"Get ready for war."

Hearing this, the Sin Clan Lord nodded, and his projection subsequently disappeared.

The Purgatory Race lord took a deep breath and grasped the strange prop in his hand.

[Do you wish to use the special prop "Group War Declaration Token"?]

"Confirm."

...

[Your territory is being invaded.]

"Hmm?"

Lin Xiao's expression flickered slightly: "It's here."

He had already prepared for a major battle. However, what Lin Xiao did not expect was that the System prompt for invasion only rang once.

This actually made Lin Xiao, who was accustomed to fighting multiple opponents alone, feel somewhat unaccustomed.

However, he still did not dare to lower his guard.

Daring to invade alone meant that the opponent's strength was sufficiently powerful, most likely the strongest among the Sixth-order Lord of the Four Great Races.

While giving orders for the heroes and Troop Type to prepare for battle, Lin Xiao looked around the territory.

The Arrow of No Distance was an SS-rank hero skill, and the field of vision it provided was even larger than the Eye of Truth.

Soon, Lin Xiao found the invaders on the east side of the territory.

However, unlike the formidable enemies he had imagined, after these invaders entered his territory, they immediately scattered at the fastest speed and sprinted in all directions.

Quite a few people also entered a stealth state.

What does this mean?

A question mark floated above Lin Xiao's head.

The actions of these invaders did not look like formidable enemies at all; instead, they looked like they were fleeing for their lives.

Hesitating for a moment, Lin Xiao still chose to strike.

Several black streams of light exuding a destructive aura crossed space, appearing on the east side of the territory, and instantly shot down.

"Boom~"

Terrifying power erupted, and several huge black light spheres rose from the ground, swallowing the invaders.

"Not all dead?"

Lin Xiao was slightly startled; he did not hear the System prompt indicating the end of the invasion.

Looking over, no survivors could be seen.

This indicated that a portion of the invaders was still alive and in a stealth state. Either they possessed strong damage reduction while in stealth, or their speed was astonishing, instantly rushing out of the attack range of the Extinction Ray.

The Arrow of No Distance did not have the ability to break stealth, so they could only wait for them to enter the range of the Eye of Truth.

Lin Xiao gave the order, having Guan Ri strike together with him.

Stream after stream of black light exploded on the ground on the east side of the territory.

If those stealth units had astonishing defense, sooner or later there would be a time when they couldn't hold on. If they were fast, then through carpet bombing, they would be forced into the field of vision of the Eye of Truth.

The outer territories surrounding the territory now were all transformed from the Void Land, not barren territory.

Fortunately, Lin Xiao did not care. Anyway, the resource points on them had already been sold by him, so using them as a battlefield wouldn't pain him much.

Under the carpet bombing, those stealth units quickly appeared within the vision of the Eye of Truth.

Confirmed, it was purely fast speed.

Those stealth units were completely unaware that their figures had already been exposed, and were still running wildly for their lives.

But in front of the Arrow of No Distance which could cross space, it held little meaning.

Several black streams of light fell, instantly taking away their lives.

[Invasion ended, you have achieved victory, settlement begins.]

...

"Just this?"

Lin Xiao frowned.

Ever since the last encirclement battle, his territory had not been invaded for a long time.

Finally, the invasion came. He originally thought it would be an earth-shattering battle with an intensity far exceeding before.

As a result, just this?

[Your territory is being invaded.]

Just as Lin Xiao was somewhat perplexed, his territory was invaded once again.

[Invasion ended, you have achieved victory, settlement begins.]

...

Following closely.

[Your territory is being invaded.]

After the same thing repeated several times, Lin Xiao finally confirmed one thing.

The lords invading his territory were not the Sixth-order top-tier lord and Super-spec Lord he had anticipated, but merely some Level 5 Lords.

They also completely lacked the strength to threaten Lin Xiao; the invading troops they dispatched were all trying every possible means to flee and hide.

As for their purpose, it was not hard to guess.

It was to keep Lin Xiao's territory in a state of war at all times, cutting off contact with the outside world.

But doing this, is there really any meaning?

Lin Xiao did not need to maintain contact with the outside world at all times. If he really lacked resources, he could completely trade through rescue.

Doing this could not suppress Lin Xiao; instead, it would let him obtain a War Chest.

"The Four Great Races must have some major movement."

"They don't want me to know."

Lin Xiao understood in his heart.

He decided to wait and see. When not understanding the situation, decisions made rashly were very likely to be wrong.

Half a day later, a plea for help letter was sent in front of Lin Xiao.

The one who sent the plea for help was Hu Wei of the Lord Association.

Lin Xiao pondered for a moment, preparing to personally head to Hu Wei's territory to understand the outside situation.

Moments later, Hu Wei's territory.

Lin Xiao smoothly met Hu Wei, whose face was full of solemnity:

"Lin Xiao, full-scale war has broken out."
