177: The peak strong, the divine realm appears

This sudden turn of events filled the three clans' experts, who had already turned ashen, with overwhelming joy.

Even the Demigods of the three clans had given up hope, preparing for their demise.

The Immortal Clan's Demigod, in particular, was incredibly agitated and trembled violently upon hearing that voice.

Looking towards the source of the sound, a powerful expert, shrouded in immortal light, had appeared in the void at some unknown point.

His gaze was fixed on Qing Lan, and his aura firmly locked onto him.

The sword strike Qing Lan had just unleashed had dissipated on its own against the Immortal Bell, without causing even a ripple.

To be able to achieve this, there was no doubt that the newcomer was an expert standing at the pinnacle of the continent—a God Realm Expert!

He took a deep breath, exchanged glances with the Swamp Crocodile Demigod beside him, and a sense of unease and worry rose in his heart.

Although they had prepared a backup plan for this trip, it was not enough to contend with a peak God Realm Expert.

A grim smile appeared on the Swamp Crocodile Demigod's face. "Not good, we overplayed our hand."

The Immortal Clan's Demigod bowed respectfully to the other party, "Greetings, esteemed sir!"

The latter glanced at him and said indifferently, "Retreat, I'll take it from here!"

"Yes!"

The Immortal Clan's Demigod dared not say more and silently retreated to the side. The Demigods of the Spirit Clan and Nether Race also exchanged glances, their eyes full of relief.

The God Realm Expert looked at Qing Lan with a hint of admiration, "The Human Clan is truly fortunate, about to gain another expert who has stepped into the God Realm."

"It's a pity. If my Immortal Clan didn't have a method of deduction, we truly would have suffered heavy losses here."

As a God Realm Expert, he had always remained secluded. But after the Immortal Clan's Demigod brought experts into the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield, he was awakened by a clan-protecting artifact.

After some investigation, he immediately rushed to the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield.

He finally arrived just before the three clans were annihilated, and his apprehension towards the Human Clan deepened even further.

If he hadn't appeared, not only would many experts have been lost, but another formidable enemy would have emerged.

The Swamp Crocodile Demigod transmitted a message to Qing Lan from the side, "Fellow Daoist, what do we do now? I don't know if our clan's Lord Qilin has sensed the situation here."

"If he has, that's good. Once he appears, this scoundrel is nothing. But if he hasn't, aren't we doomed?"

Qing Lan frowned slightly. They hadn't anticipated this situation. God Realm Experts hadn't appeared in the world for who knows how long.

Moreover, the five major races still maintained an unspoken understanding, not easily breaking face.

It was only that the great figure from the Demon Clan had indicated that they didn't need to hold back; killing them was fine.

Coupled with his subtle feeling about the current delicate situation on the continent, even if their Human and Demon Clans were the first to break the peace, it wouldn't affect the overall direction.

Most importantly, the last time Lin Yan gave him guidance, he also told him not to worry too much and to act freely.

This greatly encouraged him. Given Lin Yan's cultivation and status, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he was the Human Clan's spokesperson.

His words, in a sense, represented the will of the Human Clan, which was why Qing Lan had finally cleared away his somewhat muddled state of mind.

He tried to remain calm, but a single sentence from that God Realm Expert still made his heart tighten.

The God Realm Expert sneered, "Give up your futile struggle. Do you think I would be so foolish as to let a tiger return to the mountains?"

Since he had appeared here, there was no reason to let the other party go.

With that, he condensed an illusory giant hand and, with a nonchalant air, reached out towards the Swamp Crocodile Demigod and Qing Lan.

Not good!

The Swamp Crocodile Demigod's expression changed drastically. He didn't sit idly by, activating all his spiritual power, and lashed his tail fiercely towards the giant hand.

His tail, like a black steel whip, shattered all the space in front of him and struck the giant hand.

Rumble.

The void let out an earth-shattering roar. The Swamp Crocodile Demigod only felt as if his tail had struck an incredibly hard immortal metal.

The intense recoil made him feel unwell, his blood surging, and his tail twitched slightly.

Qing Lan's eyes gradually became blazing. He raised the green longsword in his hand and unleashed a dazzling sword beam, its power already exceeding the scope of the Saint Realm.

Swish!

A sword soaring to the clouds, the sword beam, carrying an unparalleled sharpness, struck the giant hand.

Immediately, the giant hand was forcefully blocked, pausing in the void.

Huh?

The God Realm Expert let out a surprised sound, clearly having underestimated the opponent's strength.

He raised his hand and gently pressed down, and the stagnant giant hand moved again.

Qing Lan's eyes were extremely solemn, continuously unleashing various killing moves, his sword intent piercing the heavens.

Yet, even so, it was still difficult to stop the speed of that giant hand.

He panted heavily. He had just exhausted all his spiritual power without holding back.

But he couldn't stop the opponent's casual strike in the slightest, showing the vast difference between the two.

However, a smile curled on his lips. Without destruction, there is no creation. After this battle, he had completely understood his future cultivation path.

The mist that had originally shrouded it completely disappeared, making it smooth and effortless.

Unfortunately, he had no more opportunities.

Facing death, although he had some regrets, he showed no fear, looking calmly at the giant hand reaching for them.

The Swamp Crocodile Demigod, however, was extremely unwilling, constantly shouting for help from his lord in his heart.

"Wa ka ka!"

"This lord has finally seen the light of day again, ruling over the world!"

Suddenly, a very childish yet incredibly arrogant voice rang out, making everyone freeze.

Even the God Realm Expert turned to look at the source of the sound, and the giant hand, without control, immediately stopped.

The main reason was that the Immortal Clan's God Realm Expert had victory firmly in his grasp and didn't want to end their lives so quickly; the immortal egg was the primary objective.

The immortal egg, still suspended in the beam of light, shook violently. The voice just now had come from within it.

Crack.

The immortal egg, already covered in cracks, finally shattered completely, and an unseeable, hazy immortal light leaped out from within.

Even the God Realm Expert's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise. Was there truly a living being within this egg? Could it be the legendary Immortal Beast from the Immortal Realm?

That hazy immortal light was so indistinct that even he couldn't see it clearly, further confirming his certainty about its origin.

Aside from the never-proven Immortal Realm, it was impossible for such things to be born on the continent.

The main reason was that faint immortal aura that subtly transcended the continent; compared to it, the continent's spiritual energy seemed extremely barren.

"What are you looking at? Keep looking and I'll gouge out your eyeballs!"

The hazy immortal light spoke again, its childish voice making everyone curious about its true appearance.

The God Realm Expert's eyes burst with fanaticism. Thanks to the reminder from the clan-protecting artifact, he could control the creature within this immortal egg.

If he could learn something about the Immortal Realm from its mouth, the Immortal Clan would have even greater confidence in unifying the continent in the future!
