192: Chapter 192: Defending
Using blood as a hammer, recasting the foundation!
"Buzz!"
In the center of the silent golden ocean, a tiny vortex suddenly appeared.
The vortex then expanded rapidly, forcibly pulling the surrounding primeval divine blood into itself without leaving a single drop.
At the deepest part of that vortex...
After experiencing extreme destruction and a long, deathly silence...
A trace of dark purplish-gold slowly condensed around that drop of Lin Yuan's heart blood!
It looked as fragile as a strand of hair, but the moment it condensed into shape, the surface of the surrounding blood pool actually collapsed downward by half an inch!
Unimaginable weight!
"Hiss..."
Lin Yuan, who was left in a soul state, could not feel physical pain, but this process of reshaping his true body was still accompanied by a tearing sensation that reached deep into his soul.
But he did not scream; instead, a frenzied sneer emanated from the depths of his soul.
"Is this... the power of the ancestors?"
With the first trace came the second!
The bone powder that had been crushed into the blood pool converged once more after absorbing the primeval divine blood.
In this process of nirvana through endless pain...
Lin Yuan's strength, which had originally stagnated at ten thousand tons, seemed to break through some kind of shackle.
Fifteen thousand tons... twenty thousand tons... fifty thousand tons!
This pure strength was no longer a hollow accumulation of numbers, but under the tempering of the god-demon furnace and divine blood, it began a long and solid transformation toward an abyss that would make even the great powers of the myriad races feel despair!
He was reshaping in the abyss, drawing New Student from death.
The moment this Extreme Path Body, born specifically to shatter stars, completely emerged from the surface, the laws of the entire universe would tremble for it!
Black clouds weigh down on the city, threatening to crush it!
As the vast sky of the Primordial Armory was completely torn asunder, the massive fleet of the Myriad Races Alliance God-Slaying Allied Army pushed grandly to the foot of the Primordial Divine Mountain!
Main ships, each ten thousand meters long, blotted out the sun, and millions of geniuses and elite troops covered the sky like locusts.
At the very front of the allied army's camp, three Half-Step Ninth Rank alien ancestors, radiating an aura that was decayed yet as vast as a starry abyss, floated high in mid-air.
Their murderous gazes looked down upon the entrance to the ancient path leading to the peak of the divine mountain, the only way to obtain the inheritance.
"It's right up there... that pure bloodline fluctuation belonging to an Ancient God-Demon is brewing a transformation at the summit!"
The thirty-six pairs of light wings behind the Celestial God Clan Ancestor flapped violently, his voice tinged with unconcealed madness and wariness.
"Level the divine mountain! We must not let that remnant leave the mountain alive!" the Pope of the Cult of the Machine God emitted an electronic voice.
However, just as the Myriad Races Allied Army prepared to drive straight in and strike at the heart...
In front of that hundred-zhang-wide bronze ancient path, a steel Great Wall built from twenty thousand flesh-and-blood bodies stood stubbornly across the path of this terrifying army capable of leveling a galaxy!
Those were twenty thousand Asura Army soldiers clad in dark-gold Divine Martial Armor and wielding heavy blades!
Under the cover of an array of a hundred thousand God-Demon Mechas, the three main generals—Dragon Battle, Ancient Sword Soul, and Ji Hongyi—stood proudly at the very front of the army.
"Roar!!!!"
Facing the terrifying pressure of the Myriad Races Allied Army, which seemed like a sky full of gods and buddhas, and the three Half-Step Ninth Rank ancestors, Dragon Battle did not retreat in the slightest.
The blood qi within his body erupted, and his form swelled with the wind, transforming into a thousand-meter-tall giant beast!
His limbs gripped the rocks at the foot of the divine mountain as he let out a wild roar:
"The Yanhuang Asura Army is here!"
"Those who trespass upon the divine mountain... shall be executed without mercy!!!"
"Overestimating yourselves."
The Celestial God Clan Ancestor, suspended high in the sky, let out a cold laugh. "A mere few tens of thousand ants who haven't even reached the Seventh Rank dare to block the path of the allied army?"
In the eyes of Half-Step Ninth Rank powerhouses, these Asura Army soldiers, who were at most Sixth Rank, weren't even qualified to be stuck between their teeth.
The Celestial God Clan Ancestor didn't even bother to look twice, simply waving his hand downward casually.
"Boom!"
A divine light that blotted out the sky, carrying a momentum that could destroy anything in its path, slashed down toward the Asura Army below!
If this strike landed, it would be enough to instantly evaporate the twenty thousand Asura Army soldiers along with the surrounding mountain ranges into nothingness!
"Form the array!"
At the critical moment of life and death, a sword hum echoed through heaven and earth!
Ancient Sword Soul took a step forward, his black hair dancing wildly in the gale.
There was not a hint of fear in his deep eyes; instead, they held a resolve to perish together with the enemy.
He did not hesitate to burn his life essence, and the Star Core Purple Gold Sword in his hand erupted with unprecedented light!
"Heaven-Cutting Sword Intent, for me... BREAK!!!"
Ancient Sword Soul let out a wild roar and soared against the heavens, a sword strike fiercely slashing toward that sky-blotting divine light!
"Bang!!!!"
A violent explosion erupted in mid-air!
With a Seventh Rank body, Ancient Sword Soul hard-clashed with the ancestor's casual strike. Although he was shaken into spitting out blood, that incomparably sharp Heaven-Cutting Sword Intent actually managed to split the divine light down the middle, causing it to deviate from the Asura Army's main formation!
"Now is the time!"
Ji Hongyi's beautiful eyes widened as she unhesitatingly detonated all the Starry Sky Calamity Poison essence she had accumulated for years!
"Boom!"
A cloud of poisonous miasma erupted in front of the ancient path entrance, turning into an absolute poison barrier where touch meant certain death!
"Kill! Crush them!" Seeing this, the commander of the Myriad Races Allied Army was enraged and gave the order for a full-scale assault.
Hundreds of thousands of elite myriad race troops, like a black tide, braved the poison barrier and mecha fire to pounce frantically toward the Asura Army's defensive line.
"Asura Army! Primordial Eight Desolations Array, rise!"
Dragon Battle swung his mountain-like giant fists, smashing the first dozen or so high-level Starry Sky Behemoths that rushed up into meat paste.
Amidst Dragon Battle's angry roars, the twenty thousand Asura Army warriors instantly formed the tightest killing array, colliding fiercely with the Myriad Races Allied Army that outnumbered them a hundredfold!
A completely unequal bloody battle!
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Not a single person from the Asura Army retreated half a step!
They braved the allied army's carpet bombing, essentially using their lives to fill the gaps in the defensive line!
The Divine Martial Armor was shattered by the enemy's treasures?
Then take off the armor and use the physical body to tank it!
The Ship-Severing Greatsword in hand was broken?
Then throw away the weapon, pounce forward and smash with fists, bite with teeth, and use fingers to gouge out the enemy's eyes!
"Tear!" An Asura Army soldier was pierced through the chest by an Eighth Rank alien, but not only did he not retreat, he laughed wildly while holding the opponent in a death grip.
He detonated all the blood qi in his body, taking the enemy two major realms higher than himself down with him!
Madmen! They are all madmen!
This group of martial artists, who were at most Sixth Rank, used this most desperate fighting style to make those high-and-mighty myriad races feel a chill in their hearts!
The bloody battle lasted for a full day and night.
In front of the ancient path at the foot of the Primordial Divine Mountain, corpses were piled like mountains and blood flowed like a river.
The green poison barrier had long been dispersed, and mecha wreckage was piled with various alien corpses, like terrifying Jingguan.
