Chapter 759 The Real Powerful Enemy

A few hot-blooded warriors shouted and activated their Qi to charge into the sea of ghouls, incited by the minority’s voices.

The morale of the Human Clan immediately skyrocketed.

Many coward spectators also decided to join the battle, their fighting spirit rising.

Ding Hao still did not attack. He took the time to regulate his breathing and replenish the Qi in his body.

Ding Hao had expended a lot of Qi power activating his devil saber and rusted sword. He was not in his best condition. He knew very well that the destruction shadow would come soon. Then, there would be a real showdown between them. That hypocrite Yue Tianxing would probably run faster than a hare.

Ding Hao did not take these sarcastic remarks to heart at all.

Yue Tianxing would abandon them soon, and they would come to a miserable end.

“Brother Ding, ignore what these foolish men said. They don’t understand you at all!” A voice rang out. It was Liao Juzhan, one of the Four Silver-armored Gods of War God Hall. He suddenly appeared beside Ding Hao. He thought that Ding Hao had been affected emotionally since his eyes were shut.

Ding Hao opened his eyes and said with a smile, “They’re just a bunch of clowns. I hope they’ll be as heroic as they swore to be at the real battle! Brother Liao, let’s make use of the time to get ourselves ready. There may be a great battle soon. Even Martial Sages may perish!”

“What? Are things so bad?” Liao Juzhan was shocked.

The Human Clan seemed to have the upper hand for now. If things went on like this, the Spirits of the Dead would all be exterminated. It was not so bad a situation at all.

Ding Hao said seriously, “That presence behind the sea of ghouls will soon appear…”

Before his voice died away—

“A bunch of disobedient vermin! Why are you guys still resisting?”

An emotionless voice suddenly rang out distinctly in everyone’s ears. The voice was clear amidst the ear-piercing growls of the ghouls, like someone whispering in their ears.

Everyone shivered involuntarily.

As warriors, they could instinctively sense a deadly destructive force approaching.

The complexions of all the Martial Sages also changed.

The next moment, the crazy and frenzied ghoul army slowly began to retreat. Their snarls and growls that reverberated all around also died away. The senseless Spirits of the Dead suddenly lined up in a neat formation, like a well-drilled army.

They could finally see sunlight shining down on their heads.

Without the endless tide of the Spirits of the Dead, everyone could now clearly see their surroundings—the Dark Hall had long disappeared, replaced by a boundless, fair, and azure sky with white clouds. There were also lofty white stone pillars around, all of different diameters.

“We’re actually in the Holy Battlefield?”

All the experts who had fought in the Holy Battlefield were greatly surprised.

So the Holy Battlefield would appear when the Dark Hall was shattered?

In the distance.

Thousands of the Demon Clan experts had also assembled, looking warily at the ghoul army around them. Obviously, they had also been attacked by this army and suffered casualties after a fierce battle…

A strong sense of uneasiness welled up in everyone’s heart.

They could not help feeling their confidence and optimism ebb away.

The boundless ghoul army suddenly divided into two halves in the middle, leaving a path open. It was a truly shocking scene, like a boundless sea making way. Several thousand armored Generals of the Dead slowly walked over with orderly steps.

After these Generals of the Dead, many hundred giant Spirits of the Dead, with emerald flames swirling around their bodies, steamrollered down the path heavily.

“They are… beings even more terrifying than Generals of the Dead… Can a Spirit of the Dead evolve too?”

Ding Hao was secretly shocked.

The ghoul army in front of him was more powerful than what he had seen from the secret chamber in the Towering Buddha Pagoda—in terms of numbers, combat capability, and even organization. If they had seemed like straggling soldiers before, they were now a well-disciplined army.

This horde had already undergone a transformation.

Under the gaze of everyone, a tall and brawny figure slowly passed through the boundless sea of ghouls, reaching the head of the army. Although he seemed to be taking his time, he was actually moving fast.

His figure was blurry, and a dark gray aura of lethal destruction enshrouded his body. He was like a Devil born to annihilate the world, suffocating everyone. Two shimmering black balls of light were in his eye sockets, like two black holes. They seemed eager to devour everything.

“Hoho, pitiful vermin, tell me, how powerful is my ghoul army?”

The destruction shadow stared at the human and demon experts, speaking nonchalantly.

No one answered him.

“How boring! I seldom feel interested enough to mobilize an army. So why aren’t you vermin prostrating before me and cheering me?” The destruction shadow was like a bored lonely soul trying to amuse himself. He didn’t take the experts of the two clans to heart at all.

“Who… are you?”

A Great Demon from the demon camp asked loudly.

“Me? I’m the supreme existence in this world who dictates the destiny of every being in this realm. Hahaha, even the Five Human Supremes and the Demon Gods of the Demon Clan in the Land of Infinity must prostrate at my feet. I am the God who brings death and destruction to all…” The destruction shadow laughed like a madman.

“Humph, you overestimate yourself!”

A Great Demon grunted coldly.

“Oh? You don’t believe me?” The destruction shadow stopped laughing, and a black light shot out of his eyes. Seemingly slow, it had already enveloped that Great Demon by the time everyone reacted.

The next moment, the several meters tall body of the Great Demon shrank rapidly under the black light. He opened his mouth in horror and tried to shout, but could make no sound. He could not execute any of his powerful demonic power and was engulfed in a split second.

“I can sense your fear.”

The destruction shadow looked at the demon shrunk into the size of a fist before his eyes, speaking calmly. The next moment, the demon had turned into a black ball of light, disappearing into one of his eye sockets.

This demon was an expert at the Peak of the Demon Emperor Realm. He could not even resist and was instantly slain by that destruction shadow.

Everyone was greatly shocked.

This creature’s power was astonishing.

“Haha, I can sense fear from you all. You don’t have to be scared. Death is not as terrible as you think. Come, vermin, accept death with a calm mind. I can grant you eternal life!”

As the destruction shadow spoke, a greenish ball of light shimmered in his eyes.

The greenish light transformed into a distinct figure in the air. It was that Great Demon at the Peak of the Demon Emperor Realm who had just been killed. His facial features were clear, and there were no scars on his body. He seemed alive, the only difference being that an emerald-green flame was swirling around his body. Without a corporeal body, he was half-formed from the mist.

The destruction shadow raised his hand.

“Oh… no…” Several miles away, a Human Clan Martial Grand Emperor suddenly started to struggle madly.

The panic-stricken man was engulfed without being able to resist, his divine soul instantly destroyed.

The misty form of the Demon Emperor crept into that Martial Grand Emperor’s body and possessed it. When the man opened his eyes, boundless bizarre greenish flames gushed out and enshrouded his entire body.

He genuflected before the destruction shadow, as if paying respect to his king.

A new Warlord of the Dead had been born.

A monster that could match anyone at the Peak of the Emperor Realm.

Everyone felt a shiver down his spine. Before so many masters of the two clans, a Demon Emperor and a Martial Grand Emperor had been captured so easily and slain like helpless chickens, giving rise to a Warlord of the Dead…

The power of this destruction shadow was truly horrific.

The absolute masters of the Demon and the Human Clans looked ghastly at this moment. They could ignore the Spirits of the Dead, even the Generals and the Warlords of the Dead. But this destruction shadow…

The absolute masters were feeling tremendous pressure.

Everyone realized that a real threat had descended upon them.

“Hehe, pitiful bugs, do you understand my divine power now? Are you ready to accept death and earn eternal life?” The destruction shadow chuckled.

He very much enjoyed the frightened and doubting expressions on the faces of these experts.

Like he could draw endless power from the terror of these living creatures.

As the destruction shadow laughed, the surrounding ghoul army once again became frantic and let out shrill shrieks and growls that overwhelmed the place.

The stifling air seemed to have frozen.

Terror grew involuntarily in the hearts of many.

At this moment…

“Haha, you’re just a monster who can’t see the light of day, hiding so long in these ruins, not daring to show yourself. Why should we be afraid of you? And you claimed to be able to challenge our Five Supremes? How arrogant! You overestimate yourself. Let’s capture the leader first. Once we kill this monster, his ghoul army will melt away without a single fight!”

The bronze-skinned middle-aged Martial Sage, who had been silent, shouted from the Human Clan. He was the first to attack.

Golden light swirled all around him, scintillating with strange patterns. Mysterious golden inscriptions emanated in the void under his feet. He raised his right hand, and a huge golden ax appeared. It seemed almost tangible, hacking down as countless strange inscriptions wriggled around like snakes.

Wherever the giant ax passed, the Spirits of the Dead would turn into ashes.

“Haha, the Human Sage Realm? A power that once made me tremble… Alas, that was a long, long time ago!” the destruction shadow muttered to himself. Slowly raising his hand, he pointed out his index finger.

His fingertip touched the giant ax’s blade.

The huge ax, which could sunder mountains and split the earth, immediately froze and could no longer hack.

“Hack!”

The middle-aged Martial Sage bellowed.

His beard and hair were flowing in the air. Clenching his fists in front of his chest, he swung his arms down, trying to activate the giant ax once more.

But the giant light ax only sank slightly. That was all.
