As they were talking, a cry of alarm rang out, "Bad news, the Northern Abyss army is attacking!"
With this cry, everyone present fell into a panic, quickly got up, and moved towards other directions of the ruins.
The Old Heavenly God was also extremely helpless, leading everyone in a frantic escape.
Perhaps only in this way could they survive, otherwise, they would have no chance of living.
The people of the Northern Abyss, like fierce tigers, continuously assaulted them, striking fear into their hearts, yet leaving them with no recourse.
After all, the divine race had been so frightened that they dared not resist, and in this situation, it was impossible to regain control.
"If this continues, the entire divine race may be destroyed!"
A Heavenly God said solemnly, his expression changing somewhat.
"Since that is the case, then we shall counterattack!"
His eyes turned icy, the Old Heavenly God suddenly stopped his steps and said to the various members of the divine race, "Instead of being chased like this, why not perish together with them!"
"Perish together!"
Everyone nodded in unison, their expressions becoming serious.
These days of being chased by the Northern Abyss army had left them not only exhausted but also filled with resentment.
To be forced into such a predicament by the dignified divine race was something no one could accept.
"Old Heavenly God, we shall obey your command!"
The various Heavenly Gods spoke, their expressions extremely grave as they looked towards the Old Heavenly God.
"Gather the divine race army and counterattack the Northern Abyss!"
The Old Heavenly God's expression was cold, carrying a powerful aura.
"But the members of the divine race are scattered too far; gathering them will not be an easy task!"
A Heavenly God spoke, his expression solemn, clearly not having anticipated that things would turn out this way.
"It matters not, if we counterattack, the other members of the divine race will surge forward!"
The Old Heavenly God waved his hand and charged forward, successively slaying powerful enemies.
Seeing this, the people present finally regained confidence in their eyes and charged towards the Northern Abyss army.
Upon witnessing this scene, the other members of the divine race also sounded the horns of counterattack.
However, it was not long before the Old Heavenly God and his companions were surrounded and fell into grave danger.
The divine race lacked unity, and within the Northern Abyss army, they possessed no power of resistance.
"Is it truly that Heaven wishes to destroy my divine race!"
The Old Heavenly God let out a long cry, his heart filled with unwillingness. After all, the divine race had been under his care for tens of thousands of years, yet he had never expected it to reach such a state.
"Old fool, the divine race's destiny is nearing its end, and today is your death day!"
A leader of the Northern Abyss said coldly, "This is the fate of the divine race; you cannot escape. Surrender now!"
"Even in death, we shall never betray the divine race!"
The Old Heavenly God said coldly, "If you wish for me to surrender, you are not capable enough!"
In response to these words, the Northern Abyss leader burst into laughter, "We have already reached this point, do you still wish to struggle on your deathbed!"
"As long as the divine race endures, we shall live forever!"
The Old Heavenly God's voice was cold, "Your Northern Abyss will one day pay a heavy price for this!"
"Too much nonsense, kill them all!"
The old leader's voice was cold, laced with a hint of amusement. In his eyes, the divine race were merely prey, and he never took them seriously.
Now that the Old Heavenly God was captured, they could return to report, and the entire divine race would cease to exist.
It was likely that in no time, there would be no trace of the divine race in this region, which was as expected.
At the same time, the Old Heavenly God let out a long cry to the heavens, drew his sword, and thrust it towards his own chest, appearing incredibly grief-stricken yet utterly helpless.
In that fleeting moment, the Old Heavenly God was about to end his own life.
However, at that very instant, a powerful divine force surged forth, rushing towards the Old Heavenly God, causing a great disturbance and filling hearts with extreme dread. Naturally, no one had expected things to turn out this way.
With a boom...
The dagger in the Old Heavenly God's hand was shattered, and a figure appeared before him, his expression indifferent but carrying an imposing aura, "To think that the dignified divine race would be driven to such a state, should you not reflect upon yourselves?"
Gazing at the figure before him, the Old Heavenly God was completely stunned, his eyes filled with surprise and joy, "It's Divine Lord Lu, Divine Lord Lu has returned!"
"That's right, I have indeed returned!"
Lu Fan nodded and said, "But why have you, as members of the divine race, fallen into such a sorry state? To be driven into the ruins, this is simply a disgrace to the divine race!"
The Old Heavenly God stood frozen, his eyes filled with grief and indignation, "It is all my fault for allowing the divine race to suffer such humiliation. I never imagined that my dignified divine race would ever reach such a predicament!"
Lu Fan glanced around and then said coldly, "They have gone too far. The divine race shall counterattack and reclaim what is theirs. Do not let the Divine Dragon clan know that the divine race cannot be bullied!"
"The divine race cannot be bullied, the divine race cannot be bullied!"
A cry of acclamation arose, and everyone was filled with righteous indignation. In their eyes, the divine race was not to be insulted, and this was their deepest desire and their most fervent hope.
"I, the dignified divine race, have been forced into this situation. The Divine Dragon clan must pay the price!"
Lu Fan's voice was cold as he scanned the entire ruins, his aura surging.
Those within the ruins who heard these words trembled slightly, surprised that someone possessed such immense power that it could shake the entire area.
"It's Divine Lord Lu, Divine Lord Lu has returned!"
The scattered members of the divine race throughout the ruins all cried out with joy, even beginning to dance wildly.
Lu Fan's appearance was like a lifeline to them. With Lu Fan leading the way, they felt no fear.
In that very instant, the divine race members launched their counterattack, appearing decisive and resolute, devoid of their former weakness.
Indeed, the divine race could not be bullied, and as members of the divine race, how could they tolerate such a situation.
Upon learning of Lu Fan's return, the Northern Abyss forces were completely thrown into a panic. They knew very well that the reason the Divine Dragon clan leader dared to launch a massive invasion of the divine race was because Lu Fan had been tricked into the Northern Underworld territory.
Now that Lu Fan had returned safely, it was a significant blow to them.
In an instant, the entire ruins were filled with the Northern Abyss army in disarray, utterly defeated and without any power to resist.
And Lu Fan, like a divine demon, moved through the ranks of the divine race as if no one could stop him.
Their true war god had arrived, like their savior.
Therefore, they would not hesitate in the slightest, even if it meant giving their all, to protect the entire divine race and ensure its eternal prosperity, which had always been their deepest wish.
Meanwhile, Lu Fan watched all of this with a cold expression, even feeling a touch of exhilaration.
Perhaps this was the true strength of the divine race, invincible when led by a capable leader, but like loose sand without one.
