"Buzz...", "Buzz...", "Buzz... Buzz..."
Just as Hao Yueshen and the black figure were still in a daze, a series of buzzing sounds rang out from the horizon, and then one figure after another appeared.
One, two, ten, a hundred, a thousand...
Countless figures appeared above this ancient starry sky, standing before the endless darkness, already in the form of the dead, as if they had abandoned all grudges and karma.
At this moment, all the dead had only one belief: to unite against a common enemy.
The gazes of all the dead converged silently, falling upon Lin Yu and his companions.
Looking at the figures that appeared one by one, even the cultivators with the lowest cultivation level were at the Eternal Realm.
Such a lineup would be considered quite luxurious even in the world of the Three Thousand Immortal Worlds.
Powerful experts, even those at the Immortal Thearch Realm, were not even given a chance to participate, let alone get a number in line.
Aside from those Eternal Realm powerhouses, at the forefront of the battlefield were hundreds of the Progenitor Realm powerhouses.
At this moment, none of the cultivators concealed their auras in the slightest; the terrifying pressure of being a powerful cultivator at the Progenitor Realm spread outwards without reservation.
The sky during the Dao Qi era was far larger than the current Three Thousand Immortal Worlds, but now, with thousands of figures releasing their auras simultaneously, the starry sky is turbulent.
However, their auras did not spread completely because they were all blocked by the three thousand beams of light.
Seeing this scene before him, even Lin Yu couldn't help but show a surprised expression, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.
"Perhaps this place can withstand all my power," Lin Yu thought to himself. "Finally, I have a chance to unleash my full potential."
The aura of over a hundred Progenitor Realm experts even surpassed the pressure of the previous thousand Progenitor Realm experts' projections. The black figure and Hao Yueshen felt a terrifying aura pressing down like Mount Tai, making it difficult for them to even breathe.
"Buzz..."
A Dark Rift stretched between the two groups of people, from which endless darkness surged, and figures slowly emerged from the darkness once again.
The cultivators who emerged this time were even more terrifying in strength, and to some extent, they had even exceeded the limits that the sky could withstand during the Dao Qi era.
They exuded a terrifying killing intent, but this killing intent was not directed at Lin Yu and his companions, but at the thousands of cultivators from the Dao Qi Era!
History is about to repeat itself before these three!
Just as they realized this, an extremely domineering voice rang out from among the powerful figures of the Dao Qi Era: "Fight!"
Then, without further words from either side, a great battle was about to begin.
In an instant, all the powerful figures of the Dao Qi era rushed toward the creature that emerged from the Dark Rift.
The two met instantly, and the shockwaves from their battle were devastating.
In the distant starry sky, stars lit up one after another. After the stars lit up, the corresponding pillars of light also lit up, shining on the powerful beings of the Dao Qi era. The divine light exerted its maximum effect, suppressing those dark creatures.
At this moment, the power of the starry sky in the Dao Qi era had reached its limit. The starry sky that Lin Yu was most familiar with seemed to be moving at an extremely slow speed, as if it were brewing some kind of mysterious formation.
As time passed, dark creatures seemed to emerge endlessly from the Dark Rift, and the Dao Qi era cultivators, who initially had the upper hand, were gradually suppressed.
Seemingly sensing the situation, every hour, at least one powerful individual from within the Three Thousand Dao Provinces would emerge, step into the stars, and join the battlefield.
This scene confirmed one of Lin Yu's guesses.
Similar battles must have occurred countless times in the skies during the Dao Qi era, so the appearance of these Dark Rift did not surprise many powerful figures.
Judging from their reactions, it seemed they had anticipated this, and their response was not hasty but rather orderly.
These powerful figures from the Dao Qi era had long since developed a unique set of coping strategies, and the scenes unfolding before our eyes are the best proof of that.
With the complete eruption of the star power during the Dao Qi era, the cultivators of the Dao Qi era have always held the upper hand. However, as time goes by, the pitch-black rift seems to be shrinking.
What surprised Lin Yu and his companions was that these dark creatures had extremely strong vitality, and their numbers were countless, seemingly inexhaustible.
Whenever a powerful figure from the Dao Qi era completes a kill, two, three, or even dozens of dark creatures emerge from the crack.
Moreover, those dark creatures did not immediately dissipate after being killed, but instead turned into wisps of black gas that clung to the powerful figures of the Dao Qi era.
Initially, the influence of the black aura was negligible, but as its quantity increased, it greatly depleted the spirit and strength of those powerful individuals.
Even worse, it erodes the sanity of the powerful figures of the Dao Qi era.
Even powerful figures from the Dao Qi era were finding it difficult to sustain such a prolonged battle.
During this period, Lin Yu and his two companions witnessed more than once how powerful figures from the Dao Qi era gradually became covered in black energy, their eyes turning from clear to cloudy, and finally, their entire being turned completely black.
The moment a powerful being turns to the dark side, they will turn on their former comrades and attack them.
In this way, those powerful individuals were completely incorporated into the Dark Rift's ranks.
Faced with this situation, the powerful figures of the Dao Qi era did not seem too surprised. As mentioned earlier, these powerful figures had already witnessed such situations before, so their response was quite orderly.
Without hesitation, all the powerful figures of the Dao Qi era focused their firepower on their corrupted comrade, unleashing all their attacks on the infected cultivator to prevent him from fully entering the Dark Rift.
Therefore, although the Dark Rift is constantly infecting this powerful being of the Awakening Era, in reality, there are very few examples of successful infection that actually lead the being into the rift.
It is unknown how much time has passed, perhaps half a month, but the Dark Rift has been completely repaired by the starry sky of the Dao Qi era, leaving only a thin crack.
Seeing this, all the powerful figures couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Phew..." Even Hao Yueshen and the black figure who were watching from the sidelines couldn't help but let out a long breath.
