Mo Jianli and Ao Xiao led massive armies, so their advance was somewhat slower. However, the cultivators they had selected were all highly accomplished, and they soon charged into Yasha Race and Shadow Race territory, striking straight at the heartland.
Each force had three Grand Ascension Stage cultivators overseeing it, along with numerous Body Integration Stage cultivators. They swept through everything in their path and encountered virtually no resistance.
Deep within Shadow Race territory lay the domain of the Shadow Race's Grand Ascension cultivators, the richest and most vital region of the entire race.
"Senior Ao, we surrender!" shouted a late-Body Integration Stage Shadow Race cultivator.
Ao Xiao gave him no chance. He condensed a wolf claw from spiritual power and slammed it down viciously, killing the man on the spot.
They only wanted to surrender after the enemy had reached this point? Were they joking?
Raising a white flag before attacking Heavenly Abyss City had been surrender. Doing so now was nothing but wishful thinking!
The many powerful cultivators attacked together and quickly swept the area clean. Emperor Tianmiao Ling said, "Shadow Race territory is vast. There are still Body Integration Stage Violet Shadows entrenched elsewhere. Having received the news, they have probably already fled. We can only eliminate part of the Shadow Race."
There was no helping it. Even if Qin Sheng acted personally, he could not wipe out hundreds of billions of living beings in one go. That would be madness. They could only execute the chief culprits.
Moreover, every race had preparations for the danger of extinction. The Human Race, for example, had established a Holy Island to gather talented individuals from all sides as tinder for the future.
Should anything happen to the Human Race, Holy Island would leave the Three Realms and Seven Lands
