Seven Luminaries and Twenty-Eight Mansions, Three Ancestors Attain Martial Saint, Forty Quasi saint Battle the Human Race!
"In the name of the Human Emperor, I decree to the Human Race!"
"Slay the Demon Gods, seize the stars, and claim the Destiny Stars!!"
Standing tall above the firmament, the Human Emperor Huang Tian shouted without a moment's hesitation.
"We respectfully obey the Human Emperor's decree!"
The Three Ancestors of the Human Race, Sui Ren Shi and the others, along with the Human Race powerhouses at the Martial Emperor (Da Luo) realm, all bowed and accepted the order.
In an instant, Martial Dao Dharma Images that blotted out the sky emerged, launching a slaughter against the Demon Race Demon Gods who held dominion over the three hundred and sixty-five primary stars.
For the Human Race, practicing the Martial Dao to break through to Martial Saint (Quasi saint) and transcend the River of Destiny required shattering the phantom of a star and seizing the authority of that corresponding star.
The Ziwei Emperor Star had no living being holding its authority, which was why Huang Tian could summon it directly, successfully break through, and attain the Dao of Martial Saint (Quasi saint).
Most other stars were occupied by the Demon Race, which was why the Three Ancestors of the Human Race had remained stuck at the Martial Emperor (Peak) realm.
Taibai was the exception; having bathed in the Star Power of the Taibai Venus and seized a wisp of the Taibai Venus authority, he was able to break through directly to Martial Saint (Quasi saint).
And now, this was the best opportunity for the Human Race.
Taking advantage of the collapse of the Zhou Tian Star Dou Formation, the Demon Race members holding the authority of each star were severely wounded.
Killing these Demon Race Demon Gods and occupying the primary stars—this was the foundation of the Human Race's Martial Dao!
Theoretically, the stronger the star corresponding to the shattered star phantom, the stronger the Martial Saint (Quasi saint) one would become upon attaining the Dao.
Moreover, each primary star was not limited to holding only one Martial Saint (Quasi saint).
Occupying the three hundred and sixty-five primary stars was enough for most of the Human Race's powerhouses to attain the Dao of Martial Saint (Quasi saint).
"Kill!"
In an instant, above the starry sky, the Demon Race fell like rain.
The five stars of the Big Dipper: Tanlang, Jumen, Lianzhen, Wuqu, and Pojun.
The six stars of the Southern Dipper: Tianfu, Tianliang, Tiantong, Tianji, Tianxiang, and Qisha.
In the blink of an eye, they were occupied by the Human Race.
Including the Ziwei Emperor Star, the Human Race had occupied twelve stars of the Dou Shu.
The other two stars were the Sun and Moon, which were held by Di Jun, Taiyi, Wangshu, Xihe, and Changxi.
Unless Di Jun and the others were killed, it would be difficult for the Human Race to gather all fourteen stars of the Dou Shu.
But the five stars of the Big Dipper and the six stars of the Southern Dipper were sufficient for the needs of the Human Race's future attainment of Martial Saint (Quasi saint).
As for the Sun and Moon, there was no rush for the moment.
"Phew!"
Feeling the situation on the battlefield in the starry sky, Di Jun and Taiyi both breathed a sigh of relief.
The core of the Zhou Tian Star Dou Formation lay in the Seven Luminaries and the Twenty-Eight Mansions.
The other stars merely provided a bit more Star Power.
Without the stars of the Dou Shu, they could at most find some ordinary stars to replace them.
"Pfft!"
The next moment, the expressions of Di Jun and Taiyi froze.
The Da Luo late-stage Demon God who held the authority of the Yinghuo Star spat out blood, his aura withering.
Following that, the authority of the Suixing and Zhenxing stars was stripped away.
Not only were the Da Luo Demon Gods holding the corresponding authority suffering heavier injuries, but even the high-level members of the Demon Race, such as Di Jun, Taiyi, and Fuxi, were coughing up blood.
The Seven Luminaries were the Sun, Moon, Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth.
Among them, the Yinghuo Star corresponded to the Fire Luminary, the Zhenxing Star to the Earth Luminary, and the Suixing Star to the Wood Luminary.
Added to the fact that the Gold Luminary of the Taibai Venus had been seized by Taibai, only the Sun Luminary held by the Solar Emperor and the Moon Luminary held by the Lunar Primordial Sovereign remained in the hands of the Demon Race.
"I, Human Ancestor Sui Ren Shi, enter the Fire Luminary to become the Yinghuo Star Sovereign!"
"I, Human Ancestor Zi Yi Shi, enter the Earth Luminary to become the Zhenxing Star Sovereign!"
"I, Human Ancestor You Chao Shi, enter the Wood Luminary to become the Suixing Star Sovereign!"
Three thunderous roars shook the heavens and earth as three majestic crimson figures leaped out from the River of Destiny; they were the Three Ancestors of the Human Race.
From this point on, the Human Race gained three Martial Saints (Initial), and their destiny grew further.
The foundation of the Demon Race slipped, the expressions of high-level Demon Race members like Di Jun and Taiyi turned gloomy, and the Twelve Ancestral Witches laughed out loud.
"The Human Race engages in great slaughter, violating the Heavenly Dao; they must be executed!!"
Just at this moment, a sky-piercing roar of battle suddenly erupted.
A massive surge of demonic energy swept over as as many as forty Quasi saint appeared, standing in the Prehistoric World's starry sky, staring fixedly at the Human Race army.
"The Ten Thousand Races? Are you intending to interfere in the grievances between my Human Race and the Demon Race?"
His gaze burning like torches, Huang Tian spoke with indifference.
The Three Ancestors of the Human Race—Sui Ren Shi, Zi Yi Shi, and You Chao Shi—gathered beside Huang Tian, confronting the forty Quasi saint of the Ten Thousand Races.
The six Human Clan Leaders, including Da Ting Shi, Zhu Xiang Shi, and Ge Tian Shi, all at the peak of the Martial Emperor (Daluo) realm, also stared intensely at the Quasi saint of the Ten Thousand Races.
"We have not come for the sake of the Demon Race, but for the sake of all the endless living beings in the Prehistoric World."
"The Human Race's slaughter is too heavy, accelerating the Tribulation."
"However, since you are a race created by the Sages, we can leave a sliver of life for the Human Race."
"If the Human Emperor, the Three Ancestors, and the Clan Leaders are willing to commit suicide to atone for their sins, we of the Ten Thousand Races can grant the Human Race a path to survival."
"If not, then there is only a dead end!"
A Quasi saint of the Ten Thousand Races with a tiger's head and a human body shouted aloud.
"That's right, the Human Race does not understand the mandate of heaven and must be executed!"
"If the human powerhouses commit suicide, there is a path to life; otherwise, death!!"
"Human Race, hurry up and submit to execution!!"
Staring at Huang Tian and the other human powerhouses with disdainful eyes, the Quasi saint of the Ten Thousand Races chimed in one after another.
"Sui Ren Shi, you stay."
"Everyone else, return to the Shore of the East Sea immediately."
Staring indifferently at the Quasi saint of the Ten Thousand Races, Huang Tian commanded calmly.
Involving a war between races, the Human Race would have to fight the Ten Thousand Races today, otherwise, there would be no peace.
"Yes, Your Majesty the Human Emperor!"
Without hesitation, Da Ting Shi, Zhu Xiang Shi, and the others accepted the order and left, returning to the Shore of the East Sea.
Sui Ren Shi held the top-grade acquired merit spiritual treasure, the Primordial Fire Lamp, and summoned his Martial Dao Dharma Image across the sky.
Zi Yi Shi held the top-grade acquired merit spiritual treasure, the Zi Yi Shuttle, while You Chao Shi held the top-grade acquired merit spiritual treasure, the Chao Ju.
The Three Ancestors of the Human Race had surging blood energy throughout their bodies, their killing intent awe-inspiring.
Waiting only for the command of the Human Emperor Huang Tian, they would launch a slaughter without hesitation, even if the opponent consisted of forty Quasi saint.
"Hiss!"
Seeing this, the pupils of the Ten Thousand Races' Quasi saint suddenly contracted, feeling that their decision to surround and kill the Human Race today was the right one.
Having just broken through to the early stage of Quasi saint (Martial Saint), the Three Ancestors of the Human Race were actually able to erupt with power comparable to the middle stage of Quasi saint.
Coupled with each of them possessing a top-grade acquired merit spiritual treasure, the Three Ancestors were equivalent to three late-stage Quasi saint.
One must know that the Human Race had only been born for a mere million years; giving birth to so many top-tier powerhouses surpassed the foundation the Ten Thousand Races had developed over endless ages.
Added to this was the Human Race's astonishingly fast reproduction rate, meaning they lacked no low-to-mid-level combat strength.
The Human Race occupied the stars of the firmament, causing their foundation and destiny to skyrocket.
Give the Human Race a few more Yuanhui, and it was feared that even the Witch and Demon Clans would be crushed.
As long as the Human Race was not extinguished, the hearts of the Ten Thousand Races could not be at ease!
"Wait, they cannot leave!"
At this moment, the leading tiger-headed Quasi saint of the Ten Thousand Races spoke, attempting to stop Da Ting Shi and the other Human Clan Leaders from leaving.
"Hm?"
His gaze burning like torches, Huang Tian cast a single glance, and the expression of the tiger-headed Quasi saint changed drastically, causing him to subconsciously retreat several steps in shock.
"How is this possible!"
Unable to help but exclaim aloud, the tiger-headed Quasi saint dared not look at Huang Tian again.
One must know that he was a late-stage Quasi saint, yet he felt panicked by a single glance from Huang Tian, as if death were close at hand.
But regardless, the forty Quasi saint of the Ten Thousand Races dared not stop the Human Clan Leaders from leaving anymore.
In any case, they were just a group of Martial Emperors (Daluo); if they left, so be it.
As long as they could keep the Human Emperor Huang Tian and the foundation of the Human Race—the Three Ancestors (Martial Saints)—the Human Race would be nothing to fear.
