Critical Moment, System Assistance

Hu Shu watched the swarming demons around him, his heart filled with anxiety, but his gaze remained resolute. He knew he absolutely could not retreat at this moment. Just then, the Invincible Domain System suddenly emitted a strong fluctuation, and a surge of immense power coursed through his body. Hu Shu's heart leaped with joy, sensing that a turning point might be imminent. He tightened his grip on his long sword, preparing to face this unknown change.

The power from the Invincible Domain System, like a surging torrent, instantly filled every part of Hu Shu's body. He could feel his meridians becoming increasingly resilient under the torrent of power, with strength gathering endlessly, as if breaking through some kind of constraint.

The Human Race warriors around him, though exhausted, felt a flicker of hope ignite within them upon seeing the strange radiance emanating from Hu Shu. They exchanged glances, gripped their weapons, and prepared to fight alongside Hu Shu once more.

The demons, seeing Hu Shu's transformation, showed a hint of apprehension in their eyes, but it was quickly replaced by greed. They roared and lunged at Hu Shu and the others without hesitation, attempting to slay them before this power could fully erupt.

Hu Shu let out a great roar, and with a fierce swing of his long sword, a brilliant sword energy shot towards the heavens. This sword energy contained the immense power granted by the Invincible Domain System. Wherever it passed, space itself seemed to tear, emitting a "hissing" sound.

The first few demons at the forefront were instantly struck by the sword energy. Their massive bodies flew back like kites with broken strings, crashing heavily onto the ground and kicking up clouds of dust. The scent of blood filled the air, stimulating everyone's senses.

Hu Shu flickered, charging into the demon horde like a phantom. Every swing of his sword was accompanied by the screams of demons. He weaved through the demons with ease, his sword transforming into streaks of cold light, reaping the lives of the demons.

Seeing this, the Human Race warriors' morale surged, and they charged forward with shouts. They coordinated closely with Hu Shu, and for a time, the battle, which had been at a disadvantage, was forcefully turned around by Hu Shu, who wielded the power granted by the system.

The demons' offensive was completely disrupted, and they began to panic. Some demons attempted to flee, but how could Hu Shu let them go so easily? He channeled the power within him, and the range of the Invincible Domain instantly expanded, engulfing even the fleeing demons.

Under the enhancement of the Invincible Domain, Hu Shu's strength reached a terrifying level. He formed hand seals and chanted incantations. Suddenly, runes appeared in the sky, shimmering with a mysterious light, and descended upon the demons like shooting stars.

Wherever the runes landed, the demons instantly turned to dust, not even having time to scream. For a moment, the depths of the mysterious ruins flickered with light, filled with screams, and the scent of blood grew even more potent.

After a fierce battle, the demons could no longer withstand the attacks of Hu Shu and the others and began to scatter and flee. Hu Shu watched the fleeing demons without pursuing them, knowing that obtaining the Divine Artifact was the most important thing at this moment.

He turned and walked towards where the Divine Artifact was placed. The artifact emitted a soft glow, as if awaiting its master. Hu Shu reached out and grasped the Divine Artifact, and a warm power flowed from his arm, instantly spreading throughout his body, restoring some energy to his somewhat fatigued body.

"Let's go!" Hu Shu shouted loudly. The Human Race warriors quickly gathered around him, their eyes warily scanning their surroundings as they followed Hu Shu out of the ruins.

Along the way, they proceeded cautiously, fearing that the demons might pursue them again. Fortunately, the demons seemed to have been terrified by Hu Shu's power and did not give chase.

As they finally emerged from the ruins, Hu Shu looked at the Divine Artifact in his hand but felt no joy. He knew that although obtaining the Divine Artifact had increased the strength of the Human Race, it had also completely angered the Heavenly Origin Sect and that demonic force. They would surely face even fiercer retaliation next.

Hu Shu looked up towards the distant horizon, his brow furrowed, pondering how to deal with the impending crisis. Meanwhile, on Shouyang Mountain, the elders of the Human Race anxiously awaited their return. A greater storm seemed to be quietly brewing
