Xiang Beifei had just emerged from the trees when the battle outside seemed to have already begun. Many people on Floating Immortal Isles had rushed out. Those with high strength had gone outside to resist the powerful enemies, while those with lower strength had gone below to rescue the civilians. No one had time to pay attention to him anymore.
He dusted himself off and looked outside. Beyond Floating Immortal Isles, it seemed to have become very chaotic. The sky was no longer filled with drifting white clouds and faint immortal aura but was covered with dense dark clouds. Powerful spiritual power stirred within the clouds, creating vortex after vortex, with purple lightning continuously flashing, shrouding the air with a layer of gloom.
In order not to draw attention to his unusual attire, he ran into a room and found a similar set of clothes to put on, dressing in an old-fashioned manner, before he blended into the crowd and flew towards the outside.
As soon as he left Floating Immortal Isles, Xiang Beifei realized that the scene in front of him was one of devastation. Various shapes and colors of desolate beasts filled the sky, most of which were beings very familiar to Xiang Beifei.
Ugly monsters with yellow meat wings, together with a sky full of black demon tentacles, continuously attacked the humans holding swords.
Meat-Winged Monsters and Ghost Mustache of Remnant Visage!
Xiang Beifei slightly furrowed his brow. When he had heard the words "Eternal Night" earlier, he realized that it was the "Eternal Night Sovereign" who had made a pact with Huangquan. He hadn't expected these ugly creatures to come here.
The cities of Hanxia Kingdom were shrouded in smoke, with many innocent people wailing and screaming. Facing the Yi Tribe, they were completely helpless and terrified. They were just ordinary people who could only watch as the Meat-Winged Monsters' springs of the netherworld submerged houses, devouring them whole.
The tentacles of the Ghost Mustache of Remnant Visage wreaked havoc in the towns within the city, destroying one house after another. Calls for help from humans were heard everywhere. The cultivators of Floating Immortal Sect did their best to combat these Meat-Winged Monsters and tentacle monsters, while also trying to rescue the ordinary people.
However, due to their divided attention, many cultivators were pierced through the body by sudden tentacle attacks, then torn apart, dying at the hands of Ghost Mustache of Remnant Visage. The battle was extremely fierce, with flesh and blood flying everywhere. Many Meat-Winged Monsters and Ghost Mustaches of Remnant Visage were also killed, but not nearly as many as the defenseless civilians.
In the distance, two Demon Gods were terrifying to the extreme. A yellow aura stretched for thousands of miles, covering the entire sky, radiating an astonishingly powerful aura. On the other side was a horrifying red tentacle mass, like a massive monster with countless octopus legs, encircling another part of the sky.
Daoist Qingyang, the head of the Floating Immortal Sect, stood there alone, facing the two Demon Gods.
He wielded only a sword, his figure slim, his face resolute. The most powerful person of the Hanxia human race was only him, and no one else could intervene in that battlefield.
Three cultivators of the Immortal Realm!
At that moment, Daoist Qingyang had a shocking wound on his chest, having obviously already exchanged blows. Facing the two Demon Gods, he had suffered a setback, but the auras of Eternal Night Sovereign and Demon Tentacle King were also greatly disturbed, having gained no advantage.
"Woof?" Xiaohei turned its head and asked if they should go help.
Erha also couldn't wait to have a fight with these creatures.
Xiang Beifei was silent for a moment before shaking his head and saying, "Perhaps we cannot change anything."
From a distance, he had noticed Daoist Qingyang's familiar sword, as well as the hand that grasped the sword. On the ring finger of his right hand, he wore a stone ring!
It was the person with a face smeared in blood whom he had first met in the ruins of the island!
Xiang Beifei could not be certain what his arrival here meant, whether it was an illusion or a memory of the past of Floating Immortal Isles. But he clearly knew, whether it had once been a relic of the human race or not, Hanxia Kingdom and Floating Immortal Sect had been destroyed, leaving nothing but bones buried in yellow sand, a sinking wasteland.
If he was just entering a past illusion now, then it would be useless to take action. It would be unwise to put his energy into an illusion of the past.
Seeing those defenseless humans being slaughtered by Ghost Mustache of Remnant Visage and Meat-Winged Monsters truly pained his heart. After all, he was human, and no matter what, these were his own race, being slaughtered like livestock, which made him involuntarily clench his fists.
Still, he took a deep breath and reminded himself not to act impulsively. He could not save these people, because the outcome had already been decided. Even if he wanted to avenge these people, he had to aim to kill the real Meat-Winged Monsters and Ghost Mustache of Remnant Visage.
This was a battle of uneven strength. The human race's combat power was actually very strong, but the battle power of the Meat-Winged Monsters and Ghost Mustache of Remnant Visage was not weak at all. Clearly well-prepared, they somehow breached the defenses of Hanxia Kingdom, invading and massacring the unarmed civilians, catching all the cultivators of Floating Immortal Sect off guard.
The battle was brutal, with the stench of blood permeating the air, swords shining, and spiritual power sweeping. The clash between Daoist Qingyang and the two Demon Gods was the focus of the battlefield.
All members of Floating Immortal Sect were aware that their master was the key to this battle. Only if Daoist Qingyang could defeat Demon Tentacle King and Eternal Night Sovereign could he save the entire Hanxia Kingdom.
"Qingyang, hand over the Dao embryo of your human race, and I can grant you a swift end," Eternal Night Sovereign gestured, and a sky full of netherworld water mixed with a ghastly corrosive aura pressed down towards Daoist Qingyang.
