Though the fighting was fierce, the course of the war favored the Human Race. So long as the bug tide could not break through the defensive lines of the nine Continents, it could only march endlessly to its death. If things continued as they were, one day the Human Race would wipe out the Insect Race completely.
No matter how numerous the Insect Race was, there was ultimately a limit. There would come a day when they were all slain.
As time passed, the bug tide's assaults grew increasingly feeble, and their numbers dwindled. Ten days after the war began, the Insect Race could no longer mount an offensive of any real scale.
The Human Race realized that the time for a counterattack had come. From this moment onward, the war officially entered its third phase.
The cultivator armies of the nine Continents would advance from nine directions, sweeping away every Insect Race they encountered and demolishing every Insect Nest rising from the earth, resolving the Bug Disaster at its root!
That was the plan, but putting it into practice would not be easy.
First and foremost, a certain amount of strength had to remain stationed before the portals, lest any Insect Race escape through them.
At present, nearly eighty percent of the Nine Provinces cultivators' elite forces had gathered in the Great Insect Mystic Realm. Although some Divine Sea Realm cultivators remained behind in the Nine Provinces, their numbers were small, and they were only there for emergencies.
Like Clone Li Taibai. This time, he had not followed the army deep into the Great Insect Mystic Realm. Myriad Demon Ridge valued him greatly and did not want him taking unnecessary risks, so they had ordered him to remain at Dark Moon Forest Pass and deal with any possible stragglers.
