The Enemy at the Gates
"Hehe, Biqing, the Principle of the universe has always been the survival of the fittest. What face are you talking about? If you can't even understand this simple principle, I think your time as the Great Sage is almost up!"
Why not just hand over the throne to my Demon Race? Don't worry! I'll reward you with a star field so you can continue to eke out a living!
The Great Sage Biqing was speechless for a moment after being spoken to by the Phoenix Ancestor.
Seeing that Great Sage Biqing had suffered a verbal defeat, Great Sage Xumi took the initiative to speak, "Hundun, does Phoenix Ancestor's statement represent only himself, or the entire Demon Race?"
Is there any difference?
Hundun's enormous body instantly appeared at the forefront of the many Demon Race's Great Sage, and his voice rang out as well.
Upon hearing this, the Great Sage Xumi took a deep breath, and the fighting spirit in his eyes surged like a raging fire.
Sensing the surging Sage's Will emanating from the Great Sage Xumi, Hundun nodded with satisfaction. "That's more like it! Instead of wasting time on idle talk, let's have a real fight!"
After saying that, Hundun's wings flapped suddenly, and a huge spatial rift appeared in the void above.
As the spatial rift appeared, the massive, Hundun body moved without wind and instantly flew into it.
Then he turned to the Great Sage Xumi and said, "Xumi! Come and fight!"
From the void above, an overwhelming battle intent poured down, constantly clashing with the battle intent of the Great Sage Xumi in the void.
The Sage's Will of the two Great Sage caused the spatial rift to tremble violently.
Fortunately, it was the work of Great Sage; if it had been the work of Supreme Powerhouse, even one ten-thousandth of the Sage's Will would have been enough to destroy this dimensional space.
As the Sage's Will and Hundun collided several times in the void, the fighting spirit of the Great Sage Xumi was also stimulated to the extreme.
"Xumi! Prepare for battle!"
The Great Sage Xumi's voice was not loud, but it clearly reached the ears of every Human Clan.
Human Clan below instinctively looked up into the void.
In their eyes, the Great Sage Xumi, who was only nine feet tall, suddenly became towering and upright.
Everyone knew what this battle meant.
They won. Human Clan remains the protagonist of the world, the true ruler of the universe.
They lost, the protagonists of the world changed, and the Human Clan became food for the Demon Race, forever imprisoned by them.
When everyone's attention returned to the battlefield, the Demon Race saw only three words in their eyes.
We can't lose!
But aren't the Demon Race race the same?
If they fail, they will inevitably face extinction.
Therefore, there is no right or wrong between the two races; everything is for survival.
Just as Phoenix Ancestor said, the Principle of the universe is the survival of the fittest.
Although the battle between the Great Sage was intense, it did not attract much attention from those below.
To put it simply, the Great Sage has his Great Sage way of fighting, and ordinary people have their own way of living.
Just as Xingtian is still Good Corpse, instead of focusing on the holy war in the void, it would be better to think about how to face the war to come.
As the Demon Race continued to die, the Human Clan's firepower gradually became insufficient.
This led to a further increase in the speed of the Demon Race army's advance.
They were getting closer and closer to the Human Clan army.
Upon seeing this, Peng Tianlin immediately ordered the shield formation to stand by.
Rows of celestial soldiers, clad in high-tech armor, instantly took their positions.
They extended their right hand forward and raised their left hand high.
A shield taller than a person appeared instantly on his right hand as if flowing water.
And the raised left hand quickly revealed a weapon resembling a spear.
"Royal!"
The unified chants startled the charging Demon Race.
The Human Clan immortal soldiers stood in a vertical line, using their arms and shoulders to firmly hold up the shields in front of them.
As a blue light flashed, an energy shield suddenly appeared on the surface of countless shields.
In that instant, tens of thousands of energy shields were gathered, and countless massive energy shields firmly protected the Human Clan army behind them.
"Shield formation! Fill the gaps in the warships' attacks, attack!"
Peng Tianlin's voice once again resounded throughout the army.
Suddenly, long spears emerged from those massive shield formations.
It looks exactly like the weapons of these shield-formation immortal soldiers.
Immediately, enormous streams of energy shot out from these spears, instantly flooding the battlefield.
Despite their small size, these spears are just as powerful as the firepower of massive warships.
The Demon Race's attack was once again thwarted.
What these Demon Race didn't know was that a rapid personnel rotation was taking place behind the shield formation.
It turned out that the attacks were not launched by the shield-formation immortal soldiers, but by reinforcements from the rear.
With each attack, these soldiers would instantly turn pale, and some even needed help to get off.
This is clearly caused by excessive energy consumption.
Then new celestial soldiers will be added to the ranks, attacking, their faces pale, and new recruits will take their place again.
Looking at the pale-faced immortal soldiers who had been moved to the rear, Peng Tianlin's heart became extremely heavy.
The Good Corpse beside him offered a slightly helpless consolation. "Sigh, there's nothing we can do about it. You know the state of the Demon Race. Even with the aid of technology, our chances of winning are still not high!"
"I understand the reasoning, but I'm just a little sentimental! If it weren't for the weapons provided by Mister Yi, these kids wouldn't even be qualified to be grunts!"
Although the strain is severe, it's better than death! If Human Clan truly falls, their fate will be a thousand times, ten thousand times worse than it is now!
The Good Corpse nodded, its gaze returning to the battlefield.
At this moment, the Demon Race army had arrived in front of the shield formation, and the endless Demon Race behind them still stretched as far as the eye could see.
"Wow! Just how many Demon Race are there?!"
The Good Corpse couldn't help but utter such a sigh.
Peng Tianlin, who was standing to the side, nodded repeatedly.
"I originally thought that with the weapons we've accumulated over 60,000 years, we'd be more than capable of dealing with the Demon Race, but it seems I was overthinking it!"
These guys are like locusts!
Even if the Great Sage wins, wiping out the Demon Race won't be so simple!
This is the first time we've discovered Good Corpse; technology has actually lost out in terms of sheer numbers!
Although it's somewhat frustrating, it's undeniable that this is an indisputable fact.
Countless Demon Race had already gathered in front of the shield formation.
The energy shield formed by the shield array clearly has a very strong burning effect on the Demon Race.
But these Demon Race still rushed forward one after another.
Soon, the area in front of the shield formation was piled high with corpses.
The Demon Race who followed behind paid no attention to these severed limbs; some even picked up a piece and put it in their mouths while attacking.
The sight made the celestial soldiers supporting the shield formation feel nauseous.
As Human Clan, they could not comprehend this act of devouring the flesh and blood of their own kind.
But for the Demon Race, it was already a common occurrence; it would be a waste to leave it anywhere anyway.
How convenient now, we have ready-made barbecue!
