As the passage began to tremble violently, it seemed the Ninth Order battle had begun.
A few minutes later...
Figures radiating terrifying pressure finally unveiled the "black veil" concealing their movements and flew out of the gray mist!
They did not launch an attack immediately, instead gathering together one after another.
They floated above the gray mist, in the center of the basin.
Most of them had humanoid outlines, but their bodies were heavily mutated.
Some were covered in chitinous shells, while others had bone spurs growing from their joints.
Those that looked relatively normal had facial features and brows no different from humans, but their skin was gray-black and exuded an intense aura of death.
Of course, a small number of the powerful beings had bestial forms.
Some resembled tigers or leopards, while others looked like birds of prey.
But their pitch-black beast bodies were all twisted and mutated in one way or another.
When more than two hundred high-level Abyssal beings had gathered, the gray mist finally settled down, and no more powerful beings emerged.
Nearly one hundred and ninety Seventh Orders, and nearly twenty Eighth Orders!
Two hundred powerful auras layered together, churning the endless leaden clouds and roiling the gray mist, which was solid as stone.
Berserk waves of air swept in every direction from them as the center, spreading fear and despair.
Their number of high-level beings was a full four times that of the human side!
This appearance should have been shocking!
It should have filled every human martial artist with despair!
With an absolute numerical advantage, they would intimidate humanity, seize its momentum, and crush its will.
The suppression of order suffered by Seventh- and Eighth-Order powerhouses was far weaker than that suffered by Ninth Order and Above Ninth Order beings.
