Chapter 752 - 746: Waiting for the Hare, Battle Begins

Everything, just as the Buddha had foreseen.

Following that, Wa Huang, Demon Lord, disciples under the Buddha’s Gate, all entered the Returning Ruins Arena.

They had no new targets left.

Before them, those who had laid the Heaven and Earth Net at the Returning Ruins were precisely Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and the Buddha’s disciples who had emerged after the battle at the Returning Ruins Arena.

Without new targets, the battle at the Returning Ruins Arena has come to an end.

Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and the Buddha suffered heavy losses, thus they lurk nearby, seeking to inflict greater losses on the Void Race.

The battle at the Returning Ruins Arena is over, and the next fight is the extinction war against the Void Race.

Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and the Buddha are readying their troops, just waiting for the Void Race to walk into the trap.

....

....

Within the Returning Ruins.

The Returning Ruins Arena.

On the stele of the Returning Ruins Arena, no other names could be written anymore.

The names that could be written had already been written.

Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and the Buddha had no new disciples, thus the Void Race naturally had no new targets.

Members of the Void Race gathered together, though they suffered heavy losses in the battle at the Returning Ruins Arena.

Yet their faces were alight with joy.

Because, thanks to the Returning Ruins Arena, they finally had the power to retaliate.

Rather than, as before, only being slaughtered like lambs.

"The battle is over!"

"The battle is finally over!" The Second Elder of the Void Race mumbled to himself: "The disciples of Wa Huang, Demon Lord, and the Buddha must’ve suffered tragic losses."

"Now, it’s nigh impossible for them to seal off all the Void relics."

"We of the Void Race can finally seek survival amidst death, find a way to live in the crevices."

In the Void, there are many Void relics.

Previously, the Buddha and others sealed all Void relics using a cage tactic, leaving the Void Race with no way out.

However, executing the cage tactic comes with a premise.

That is, it demands a vast number of people to monitor all Void relics, and to dispatch powerful disciples forming teams to hunt the Void Race.

In the battle at the Returning Ruins Arena, the disciples under Buddha, Demon Lord, and Wa Huang suffered heavy losses, unable to completely seal the Void relics.

If the Void relics cannot be sealed, the cage tactic becomes ineffective.

The Second Elder of the Void Race was very pleased, as long as the Buddha, Wa Huang, and Demon Lord lacked the ability to completely seal the Void relics.

Everything became easier, he could lead the remnants of the Void Race, retreat and await the battle between Yin Celestial Son and the Buddha, Wa Huang, and Demon Lord.

Amidst the battle of these two sides, regardless of who wins or loses, they of the Void Race could survive in the crevices.

The Second Elder of the Void Race thought very thoroughly.

If the battle is won by Yin Celestial Son, they of the Void Race, as allies, asking for a way out seems reasonable, right?

Even if the Buddha, Demon Lord, and Wa Huang win, it would undoubtedly be a pyrrhic victory.

In their state of defeat, the Buddha, Demon Lord, and Wa Huang wouldn’t have the time to trouble the Void Race short-term.

Furthermore, even if the Buddha, Demon Lord, and Wa Huang gobble up the vast cake of heaven and earth, they might not fancy the fly-legs of the Void Race.

In summary, they of the Void Race did all this, for the purpose of their race’s continuation.

To them, surviving is above all.

"Evacuate!"

"Evacuate the Returning Ruins!" The Second Elder of the Void Race issued the command to the numerous clan members.

The Returning Ruins is a desolate, abandoned land.

Different from the Void, where some residual energy still exists.

The residual energy in the Void is chaotic and violent.

The energy within the Returning Ruins is completely depleted.

Members of the Void Race cannot supplement any energy in the Returning Ruins.

Only consumption without replenishment.

Furthermore, nearly all members of the Void Race experienced battles, and the energy within is severely depleted.

They are eager to return to the Void, find a Void relic, and replenish their energy.

Under the Second Elder’s leadership, the Void Race followed the marks left when they came, swiftly departing from the Returning Ruins.

Having the path they treaded when entering, the Void Race faced much less risk when leaving.

One might say, without any casualties.

Of course, the main reason was that the Void Race showed no interest in anything within the Returning Ruins.

No matter how many treasures lie within, the Void Race barely even glances at them.

Not exploring the Returning Ruins, naturally, they hardly trigger any arrays within.

Soon, the Void Race arrived at the exit of the Returning Ruins.

At this moment, the Void Race had no awareness of what awaited them outside the exit.

The first batch of Void Race clan members rushed out of the Returning Ruins.

At this moment, outside the Returning Ruins, the hidden Buddha showed a smile.

"The fish have come!" the Buddha whispered.

If the Void Race is akin to a school of fish.

Then, the Buddha, Wa Huang, and Demon Lord had already laid the Heaven and Earth Net at the exit of the Returning Ruins.

Now the fish have come, it’s time to draw the net.

The clan members of the Void Race, having just rushed out of the Returning Ruins.

The next moment, they saw the Heaven and Earth Net laid outside the exit by disciples of the Buddha, Wa Huang, and Demon Lord, freezing in shock.

Clearly, things exceeded their expectations.

As they were dumbfounded, disciples of the Buddha, Wa Huang, and Demon Lord began their assault.

Previously, capturing members of the Void Race was to help the Demon Lord resolve the Power of Cause and Effect.

Now, with the Demon Lord himself finding a way to counter the Power of Cause and Effect, these members of the Void Race became unnecessary.

Consequently, the Buddha directly issued an order to massacre.

Monk Fusheng raised the Demon-Subduing Pestle, which emitted a dazzling Buddha’s Radiance. Wherever the radiance reached, swathes of the Void Race were dissolved.

Nato also raised the Red Embroidery Ball, launching it, crushing swarms of the Void Race into dust.

Though Peacock Great Ming King felt sympathetic towards the plight of the Void Race.

He could only fish in troubled waters, under the premise of ensuring his identity remained hidden, striving to minimize the killing of the Void Race.

Yet, whether or not Peacock Great Ming King slaughtered these members of the Void Race, others would.

Facing the Heaven and Earth Net laid with the intention of catching rabbits, disciples of Demon Lord, Buddha, and Wa Huang, the Void Race, lingering without energy replenishment, stood no chance to fight back.

How could this be a battle!

Frankly, it was a blatant massacre.

In the battle at the Returning Ruins Arena, the Void Race utilized tactics akin to Tian Ji horse racing, slaughtering many disciples of Demon Lord, Buddha, Wa Huang.

The enmity between both sides deepened evermore, now, disciples of Demon Lord, Buddha, Wa Huang had seized this opportunity.

What they’d suffered in the Returning Ruins Arena, naturally, they sought to pay back double.

Hence, now they acted with no mercy.
