Upstream of the River of Time.
The great battle ended the moment the Human Emperor arrived.
Too fast to react!
The Divine Emperor and the others fled with their remaining experts, going upstream against the current and choosing to escape.
Could they be pursued?
They could!
But if they chased any farther, Su Yu's heaven and earth would no longer cover that area, and it would still be a grueling battle.
Moreover, if they truly slaughtered all the myriad races' experts, then without those experts suppressing it, the Human Emperor's side combined with Su Yu's side might not be able to suppress the river's flow. That would accelerate the River of Time, sending the Human Emperor and Su Yu swiftly back to the myriad worlds and causing the three gates to open.
In this battle, over forty Rule Masters of the myriad races had been killed, including three first-tier experts!
The Divine Emperor led fewer than fifty Rule Masters and fifty or sixty non-Rule Masters—nearly a hundred people in total—upstream, vanishing from everyone's sight.
From the original 125 Rule Masters, after two great battles, the myriad races had lost more than half!
Meanwhile, Su Yu looked around. His face was expressionless, and he said nothing.
There had still been losses.
Even though he had held back nearly everyone by himself, blocking countless experts alone, the losses had still been substantial.
On the Human Emperor's side, King Ming and King Zhan had severed their Daos.
Originally, apart from those two, the Human Emperor's faction had forty-nine people besides the Human Emperor himself, including the four Rule Masters from the myriad races who had surrendered last time. This time, twenty-seven experts had merged their Daos into the Human Emperor's Heaven and Earth, while more than twenty others had fought this bitter battle.
