598 Perhaps We Still Have a Chance
Lord Zhan shouted at the reinforcements who wanted to save him.
“Old Zhan…”
“Go!”
Lord Zhan let out another furious roar. At the same time, he activated the remaining energy in his body, planning to self-destruct.
The reinforcements were shocked.
They did not dare to hesitate and immediately turned around to retreat into the escaping team.
“Quick, go that way. We’ll protect you!”
The self-destruction of a Celestial possessed a destructive might.
Even if Lord Zhan’s power was limited, it was not something that cultivators below the Celestial Realm could withstand.
More than ten Hall Masters took out their dharma treasures and protected the remaining dozens of people in the center.
In a few breaths, a violent and chaotic energy fluctuation had been emitted from Lord Zhan’s location. In the blink of an eye, the energy exploded.
With Lord Zhan as the center, a powerful suction force suddenly appeared.
Then, an even more powerful explosive wave shot out.
The nine demons at the center of the explosion had no time to dodge because their bodies were too big.
A dazzling white light engulfed everything. The center of the explosion spread out rapidly.
Ten miles…
A hundred miles…
The range was compressed to a hundred miles, but the power of the explosion was terrifying to the extreme.
Dozens of demons were affected. Most were in the Human Immortal Realm and were blown to pieces on the spot.
There were also a few Earth Immortal Realm demons. Although they still had a trace of life, they had almost lost their combat ability.
As for the nine-headed demon at the center, its flesh and blood had shattered, and its internal skeleton was exposed. Its nine heads had also been blasted into pieces.
“Damned insect! How dare you hurt me! How dare you hurt me!?”
Its breathing was chaotic, and a mournful roar came from his broken throat.
The members of the Heavenly God Palace hiding from the explosion looked at the scene in front of them in horror.
The self-destruction of a Celestial was unheard of in the Heavenly God Palace, except for the three High Gods.
While everyone felt sorry for Lord Zhan’s self-destruction, they were also fearful of the nine-headed demon who had survived the self-destruction of a Celestial.
The feeling of fear rose to the extreme.
“We can’t win… We can’t win at all…”
Some people had already begun to despair. Even if they escaped now, they would have to face it again in the future.
At that time, without the protection of their seniors, how could they resist the demons?
“Let’s go! We can’t waste the opportunity Hall Master Zhan gave us with his life!”
The dozen or so Hall Masters who had led the group to escape were also shocked and furious.
However, they knew there was no point in staying. Only by escaping first would they have a chance to avenge today’s victims in the future.
Lord Zhan’s self-destruction created a vacuum.
The escaping team finally got the chance to break through the encirclement and arrived at the weakest periphery.
Although there were still many demons in the Human Immortal Realm here, they were not a threat under the attack of more than ten Hall Masters.
The group broke through the encirclement of the demons like a hot knife through butter.
Seeing that the escape team had fled, Hall Master Hong and the others in the inner circle revealed gratified expressions. When they looked at the demons again, their gaze could not help but become sharp.
“Die, you b*stards!”
Knowing they could not escape, many cultivators who stayed behind to restrain the demons burned their vitality and erupted with the last luster of their lives.
Violent energy rose and fell as if flowers of light were blooming in the darkness.
Some people were trapped and were about to be infected. They immediately chose to self-destruct without hesitation.
Some were seriously injured and lost their combat strength. They also self-destructed to show their final value.
On this day, the southwest continent was in chaos. The entire world felt the terrifying might of that battle.
Heaven and earth wept, and the wind and clouds changed color. The earth was shaking, and the rivers flowed backward.
Everyone knew that somewhere in the southwest, there was a war that concerned the survival of the world.
