He realized that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't reach the eighth floor of the Chaos Trial Tower!
Xiao Ran sat cross-legged, his eyes half-lidded as he began to meditate and cultivate.
He had already made up his mind.
If he failed to reach the eighth floor of the Chaos Trial Tower this time—
he absolutely wouldn't give up!
"Boom! Boom!"
The thunderous, rapid beat of war drums suddenly rang out above Xiao Ran Tribe, shaking the heavens and earth.
High in the sky, countless Demon Army troops surged in, packed together and brimming with murderous intent.
They blotted out the sky and sun, a dark mass of Demon Army charging from the horizon.
They stretched across the Void for tens of millions of miles.
Xiao Ran's entire tribe had become an ocean of black.
"The Demon Army is attacking!"
Inside the Chaos Trial Tower.
Shouts of alarm kept erupting!
The Witch Race beings who had been cultivating inside the Chaos Trial Tower had no time for cultivation now.
They sprang into action as if facing a formidable enemy, rushing out of the Chaos Trial Tower!
They prepared to fight to the death against the millions upon millions of invading Demon Race beings!
"Rumble!"
The clang of clashing metal rang out alongside a chorus of roars that shook the heavens.
The millions upon millions of Demon Race beings surged with overwhelming force, striking terror across the heavens.
Terrifying, unending Demon Qi filled the entire sky.
Countless shadows flashed and intertwined, surrounding all of Xiao Ran's tribe in a terrifyingly precise formation!
Xiao Ran Tribe was on the brink of annihilation!
Only a miracle could save them!
Otherwise, not a single member of Xiao Ran's tribe would escape!
At the slightest misstep, the entire tribe could be wiped out!
Several million Witch Race beings had already flown out of the Chaos Trial Tower.
Now they all gazed solemnly at the millions upon millions of Demon Army troops attacking from the sky.
Their fists were clenched tight, their eyes burning with boundless fury.
Even though they knew how great the disparity in strength was—
not one member of the Witch Race was afraid!
The Witch Race had never feared danger, and they would rather die than submit!
Falling in battle was their greatest honor!
Xiao Ran stood at the very top of the Chaos Trial Tower.
He raised his brows and looked up at the sky.
A dark mass of Demon Army, like billions of locusts sweeping across the land, blotted out the sky as it bore down on them.
He couldn't help but feel puzzled.
In the past, the Witch Race had always taken the initiative to attack the Demon Race.
But now, the Demon Race had suddenly sent millions upon millions of troops to surround and destroy him.
What was going on?
Even so, faced with the millions upon millions of Demon Army troops,
Xiao Ran remained utterly unafraid!
He was destined to become the Witch Race's Thirteenth Great Witch!
And he had the help of a heaven-defying system!
They were nothing more than a mere Demon Army!
They weren't enough to make Xiao Ran afraid!
"Clang!"
A world-shaking bell toll rang through the heavens.
In that instant, heaven and earth lost their color, and the sun and moon dimmed!
Terrifying sound waves burst through the Void, sending ripples of space surging outward.
Even the millions upon millions of Demon Army troops in the Void felt a chill run through them, their hair standing on end.
Countless strands of dense temporal and spatial sealing power emerged, shrouding all of Xiao Ran Tribe with a terrifying force capable of devouring everything.
Xiao Ran gazed into the Void, his expression shifting slightly.
Though he couldn't sense Donghuang Taiyi's presence,
Donghuang Taiyi had still made his move from behind the scenes!
The Chaos Bell was currently the most heaven-defying Supreme Treasure in the Primordial World, second only to Hongjun's Jade Disc of Creation!
It could suppress Chaos, reverse time and space, refine yin and yang, and turn Qiankun upside down!
And just now, his tribe's time had been sealed by Chaos, and its space suppressed!
Even if Xiao Ran wanted to call for help, the tribes where Xing Tian and Hou Yi lived couldn't come to his aid anytime soon!
What a vicious scheme!
The Demon Race actually wanted to catch turtles in a jar!
They meant to wipe out his tribe in one fell swoop!
Now the Chaos Bell had appeared!
And the Demon Race had sent millions upon millions of troops this time!
It seemed the Demon Race was determined to destroy his tribe.
But why was the Demon Race going to such lengths to wipe out his tribe?
Was it simply because Xiao Ran had led his people to conquer the tribes of their master, the Demon Saint, and the True Howling Ancestor,
and seized their territory?
Was that what had enraged the Demon Race?
Xiao Ran didn't think that was likely.
Ever since the Dragon-Han Calamity, the two races had been locked in a fight to the death.
Though they had yet to engage in a final, drawn-out war,
minor clashes between them played out across the Primordial World almost every day!
The Demon Race had a vast population and an immense territory.
Even when a Witch Tribe seized some of their lands,
they didn't seek revenge!
So why was the Demon Race targeting him in particular this time?
To exterminate Xiao Ran's tribe in one fell swoop,
they had gone to all this trouble!
They had sent millions upon millions of Demon Army troops—
and Donghuang Taiyi had even gone so far as to use the Chaos Bell, an invincible Innate Supreme Treasure rarely wielded!
Xiao Ran was only a Great Witch at the Grand Unity Golden Immortal level!
There were hundreds of Great Witches at that level in the Witch Race!
If that was the case, why did the entire Demon Race attach so much importance to his tribe?
Suddenly, a possibility occurred to Xiao Ran!
Di Jun and Donghuang Taiyi had most likely already received the news!
They knew that he might become the Witch Race's Thirteenth Ancestor Witch!
