606: Fighting fires everywhere
At the turning point of fate, the gears of heaven and earth seemed to crack, and an unprecedented change swept through.
At that time, the people from all directions, regardless of their past grievances, were united in heart to face the sudden calamity together...
The crazed Dao Ancestors were carrying destructive power, launching attacks at will!
Those Dao Ancestors, who were usually high and mighty, were now like beasts that had lost their reason; their power was incredibly formidable, but their sanity was gone.
People were horrified to find that these beings, who were supposed to be guardians, had now become the greatest threat; seeing them was like seeing Yama, and to see them meant certain death.
"Hold on! Hold on! He's about to break through our defense line!"
The people's cries were filled with despair and indignation.
"These Dao Ancestors, why does every single one of them seem to have lost their mind? Have they all gone mad?"
Some were angry, while others were terrified.
"Old Fourth was hit! Quickly carry him to the back for treatment!"
As the battle continued, more and more people were injured and fell, but they still resisted tenaciously, hoping to protect their home.
In a small city in the Origin Realm, the people gathered together, their eyes fixed on the City Protection Formation above their heads that flickered with a faint light.
This ancient Formation had witnessed the rise and fall of this city; it had stepped forward many times in moments of crisis to protect the city's peace.
However, at this moment, it was crumbling under the frantic attacks of four crazed Dao Ancestors.
Every attack from the Dao Ancestors made the earth tremble and houses collapse; dust and fear filled the air, and the roar of explosions rang in everyone's ears.
Finally, under the continuous bombardment of the four Dao Ancestors, the light of the City Protection Formation gradually dimmed and eventually shattered and dissipated.
Four Dao Ancestors with twisted faces and eyes flashing with madness descended into the city, their smiles revealing cruelty and coldness.
"Finally found you... little rats!"
One of the Dao Ancestors said mockingly, his voice as biting as a cold wind, the threat and killing intent within it almost solidifying, making everyone shiver involuntarily.
This small city had few experts, with only two ordinary Dao Source Realm Cultivators; facing four crazed Dao Ancestors... they were undoubtedly like an egg striking a stone.
And the fate of this city seemed already sealed, destined to be precarious in this great calamity.
As those mocking words fell, the women, children, and elderly in the city seemed to realize their impending fate; for a moment, heaven-shaking wails rose one after another, echoing through the clouds.
"Mom, I don't want to die!" A youthful voice filled with endless fear and indignation pierced everyone's heart.
"Beasts! You are all the worst of beasts!" a noodle stall owner roared angrily, his voice full of accusations against the injustice of fate.
"No past grievances, no recent enmity, why do you want to harm me!" a middle-aged man shouted in despair, his face written with incomprehension and rage.
"Hahahaha... I'll fucking fight you to the death!" a coarse voice roared, as if using the last of his courage to challenge the overbearing enemy.
"My Lords, please spare my life! As long as you are willing to let me go, I will serve you as a beast of burden in my next life to repay you." There were also those who, in this moment of life and death, chose to beg for their lives, their voices full of humility and pleading.
In the face of life and death, people showed all aspects of human nature.
Some wept and cursed, some fought with all their might, and some chose to compromise and beg.
However, the wheels of fate seemed to have been long determined and would not stop moving because of an individual's will.
Faced with the people's cries and curses, the Dao Ancestors closing in for the kill seemed to neither hear nor see.
The killing intent on them remained bone-chillingly cold, as if to shroud the entire city in a blanket of slaughter.
"Further talk is useless," one of the Dao Ancestors said coldly, as if announcing the start of the massacre.
"Everyone... it's time to go on your way!"
With those words, the four crazed Dao Ancestors descended like gods of death, beginning their journey of slaughter. And this small city was about to be turned into ruins under their butcher's knives.
But just then... a sudden change occurred!
A figure appeared on the horizon; at first, it was just an imperceptible small dot, but in the blink of an eye, this dot crossed a vast distance and instantly appeared within the city!
"Finally made it in time!"
The figure that suddenly appeared here... was none other than Li Qi's Clone!
Li Qi had left three Clones in the Origin Realm; the strength of these Clones was identical to his main body, incredibly powerful.
When he sensed the changes in this realm, these Clones all took action; besides leaving one Clone to guard Gu Yong City, the other three Clones had already left, scattering to various parts of the Origin Realm to begin hunting these crazed Dao Ancestors.
After this Clone appeared, he blocked the path of the four Dao Ancestors, shielding the people of the city behind him, then looked at the four Dao Ancestors and spoke slowly.
"Fellows... I'm sorry."
"I'm going to send you on your way!"
