Mutual Compromise, Then Flight!
A strong wind rises, and the world is covered in ice and snow.
A gigantic claw formed from a raging storm slammed down towards Qin Lu, the terrifying aftershocks of the Dao Law tearing through the void...
Under such immense power of heaven and earth, Core Formation would become nothing more than a slightly larger ant!
Qin Lu, meanwhile, remained firmly seated on the imperial throne.
His eyes were calm and still, like an unchanging statue, silently watching everything, just as the giant claw of the raging wind was about to fall...
A Sword-Ray flashed from afar!
A seemingly ordinary sword strike was enough to cleave the heavens; it severed the Dao Law, ripped through the Void, and the clouds slowly parted as the sword struck...
The Great Dao manifests; by borrowing its power, we will World Destruction!
"Qi Feng, how dare you!"
With a furious roar that echoed through the heavens, Gu Xuanzhen Void Breaking, shattering the Void as he arrived, his sword light cleaving through the giant claw...
He even severed one of the Penguin Emperor's arms with a single sword strike!
The moment he saw Gu Xuanzhen, he was terrified. Without a second thought, the Penguin Emperor flapped its wings and turned to flee...
Without the slightest hesitation, one could clearly see the pressure that Gu Xuanzhen exerted on him!
then--
The reason they went to such lengths to resort to underhanded tactics was because Gu Xuanzhen alone had suppressed their entire Ice and Snow Demon Race to the point of being unable to raise their heads!
This young Nascent Soul Nascent Soul, skilled in swordsmanship, possessed a combat prowess unparalleled in Penguin Emperor's lifetime.
We finally managed to destroy his physical body back then, but unexpectedly, nearly a hundred years later, this bastard has come back from the dead and is killing us again...
"Trying to run away?"
"It's not that easy!"
"Do you really think I'm someone you can come and go as you please?"
Gu Xuanzhen laughed loudly, his figure merging into the river of Sword Dao. The next moment, in the void thousands of miles away...
A giant sword suddenly shattered the Void and slashed towards the Penguin Emperor!
Seeing the colossal sword cleaving the heavens and splitting the earth, the Penguin Emperor had no choice but to reveal its true form, wrapping its entire body in its wings to withstand the sword's strike...
His body was cleaved in two by a single sword strike, flattening hundreds of mountain peaks in the process!
The black and white bird demon, thousands of feet in size, flapped its wings in the air, and the moment it stabilized its body, a whirlwind swept in...
The frigid winds of the extreme region swept across thousands of miles, instantly transforming the land into an Endless glacier!
With every gesture, they can reshape the environment of a thousand miles; every action and word is a manifestation of the immense power of heaven and earth...
They all contain the power of the Great Dao!
The Great Way extends far beyond this, and life can endure for eternity...
But then--
Tens of millions of sword blades, like a giant dragon of sword light, pierced through layers of glaciers...
Then it all converged towards the sky!
Gu Xuanzhen broke through the ice and then slashed down with a finger. Instantly, thousands of swords merged into one, and a giant sword ten thousand feet long descended from the sky once more!
Following closely behind--
Then the Great Dao of the Sword manifested, and Gu Xuanzhen pointed at it, borrowing the power of the Great Dao to strengthen the ten-thousand-foot-long giant sword...
In an instant--
Sand and stones flew everywhere, and the earth cracked open!
The overflowing Sword Intent carved countless furrows into the vast earth...
Countless mountains were uprooted, some even reduced to ashes, while the Great Dao of Ice and Snow that collided with them were instantly obliterated...
The giant sword swept out, staining the sky with blood!
The enormous wings were severed, Sword Dao Principles, like maggots clinging to a bone, clung to the wound, relentlessly eroding flesh, Divine Sense, Dao Law...
"Mystic Sword!"
"How dare Human Race behave like this!"
The Penguin Emperor unleashed a low growl, its true form receding into human shape...
It took a lot of Dao Law to clear away the residual Sword Intent and regenerate flesh and blood, but its aura also dissipated rapidly!
Gu Xuanzhen coldly stared at him, his sword pointing at Penguin Emperor's head.
Judging from his aloof demeanor, he was practically holding a sword to the Penguin Emperor's neck. Clearly, this brief exchange...
Gu Xuanzhen has won a great victory!
What? You're not convinced?!
"If you still want to fight, I'm ready anytime!"
Upon hearing this—
Penguin Emperor fell silent. He gave Gu Xuanzhen a cold look. He knew that the Ice and Snow Demon Race was finished, utterly and completely finished!
From the moment Gu Xuanzhen appeared.
The Ice and Snow Demon Race's scheme, which had been going on for thousands of years, had thus been completely thwarted...
The Frost Ancestor will surely perish today, and the Great Qin Ancestor of the Human Race will also forge his Nascent Soul today, sacrificing most of the Northern Continent in blood sacrifice...
Gathering the souls and blood of all living beings in a region, as long as one is not tempted by Heart Demon Tribulation, one is almost certain to successfully Nascent Soul Formation. However, for those with average temperaments...
How could they possibly make the decision to sacrifice billions of lives?
The madman who made such a decision must possess an unwavering resolve; how could he possibly fail to overcome the tribulation of inner demons? Breaking through to the Nascent Soul Nascent Soul involves three tribulations...
Using the blood sacrifice of billions of lives as material, passing through the Six-Nine Lightning Tribulation is not a difficult task.
Even with this ruthless heart, the success rate of overcoming the Heart Demon Tribulation is still quite high. And in the final Human Tribulation, the True Lord Mystic Sword will protect him on his path...
The Nascent Soul Formation stage is already a done deal!
The only Penguin Emperor couldn't understand was this Great Qin...
Where did they just pop out from?!
And the decision to sacrifice half of the Northern Continent —what kind of madman could make such an inhuman decision...?
This is practically killing a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of your own!
Along with their own kind, countless others were sacrificed in bloodshed...
Faced with this madman, the Penguin Emperor didn't want to be his enemy from the bottom of his heart, because a normal person would consider whether to make a choice...
But madmen are different!
He wouldn't give up until he achieved his goal; who knew that one day he would become a dish, Spirit Cuisine on someone else's table...
In just a few breaths, the Penguin Emperor quickly made a decision in his mind.
Then, with a flap of its wings, it Void Breaking and disappeared into the Great Dao of Gale. Seeing the Penguin Emperor fleeing, Gu Xuanzhen didn't give chase...
With those two moves he just made, he had already injured the Penguin Emperor.
Although the injuries weren't serious, it was like a tiger with its teeth pulled—it no longer posed a significant threat. More importantly...
It shattered the confidence of the Penguin Emperor!
Once you choose cowardice and take a step back, you'll only keep retreating...
Right now, what he really needs to be wary of is the Bear King, who is on his way. Compared to the Penguin Emperor, the Bear King is much more troublesome!
Strength is one aspect --
But more importantly, the Bear King had no way out but to fight back with all its might...
The Penguin Emperor was a smart man. The situation had changed, and he wouldn't gamble the future of his entire race on a doomed defeat...
not to mention--
The Qi Mystic Bird Demon Race —those are bird demons, with wings!
At worst, they can leave the Northern Continent. The sky's the limit, the sea is wide enough for birds to fly, and the ocean is wide enough for fish to leap. Since there's no place for them on the mainland...
If all else fails, we can just head further north!
North of the snowfield lies the Northern Nether Sea. As long as the Penguin Emperor lives, the race will not decline in a short time; they can still establish a firm foothold in the Northern Nether Sea...
There's no need to risk your life here!
This was also a tacit understanding between Penguin Emperor and Gu Xuanzhen. Gu Xuanzhen deliberately let things slide, and Penguin Emperor made a few harsh words, then took the opportunity to back down...
This way, they can withdraw and preserve their clan.
Now that Frost Ancestor has burned out his lifespan, he will surely perish here, and the Bear King, who is heading south to mourn the countless lives lost, will be the sacrifice...
In exchange for this Qi Mystic Bird Race can survive!
