"The barrier has been shattered! He can't recondense it in a short time, nor does he have the means to attack us all at once. Take them all down!"
"All Sky-Slayer clansmen, heed my command! Attack, leave none alive!"
"Attack! Annihilate the Ice Sword Mercenaries and all humans!"
"......"
Amidst a flurry of commands, the battlefield, previously halted by the heavenly tribulation, reignited.
The morale of the Sky-Slayers had been low after Sasa'to's death, but with the return of the other kings, they became exhilarated once more. It was already a sure victory, so what was there to fear?
On the human side, confusion had begun to set in. Just as a glimmer of hope appeared, they suddenly found that the doom of extinction could not be averted.
However, at this moment, Wang Teng gripped the [Pillar of Heaven] and roared at everyone, "Lift your spirits! Since the moment we stepped onto the path of immortal cultivation, we humans have fought against the heavens. What are these mere Sky-Slayers? Even in a battle destined for defeat, we must not show weakness to our enemies!"
"This land will remember your glory! Those who were sent away will remember your struggle. We will tell them of your heroic deeds in protecting our home! Therefore... I will lead you to shine brightly until the very end!"
He rarely spoke such emotional words, but he knew that the humans of this world had been fighting for so many years. They deserved a more dignified farewell than the most ignominious one.
Wang Teng, always a man of action, charged forward, brandishing his golden staff, roaring and bellowing, heading towards the enemy.
At this moment, his fighting spirit surged to its peak.
Behind him, the vision of millions of human cultivators charging forward emerged, their pressure seemingly piercing the heavens.
Everyone's heart felt as if ignited by a fire, instantly becoming filled with fervor.
"Damn it, we're all going to die anyway, what's there to be afraid of?"
"Killing one is no loss! Killing two is a great profit!"
"I don't know who they are, but to fight alongside such a powerful figure is worth a lifetime!"
"......"
All the human cultivators erupted with intense fighting spirit, which then materialized and converged onto the [Pillar of Heaven] in Wang Teng's hand.
Wang Teng's target was the ninth-realm powerhouses. Even facing so many, he showed no fear! 138 Reading Network
These ninth-realm Sky-Slayers were also enraged, feeling underestimated.
"How dare you, you insignificant fool, charge at us!"
A total of ten Sky-Slayer kings attacked instantly. Wang Teng, in turn, immediately activated his invincible golden body.
Golden light merged with crimson armor, carrying endless fighting intent as it surged forward!
Behind him, Bai Nianchen formed hand seals, and a wisp of blackness dissipated.
It then immediately settled around Wang Teng, and a colossal formation instantly took shape.
After ascending to immortality, Bai Nianchen could now form formations instantly without any prior incantation!
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth transformed into four spiritual beings: Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Black Tortoise, and Vermilion Bird, all of whom then entered Wang Teng's body.
Wang Teng was instantly empowered once more!
Subsequently, the [Heaven Devouring Bottle] was conjured, aiding Wang Teng in devouring the attacks of these ninth-realm Sky-Slayer powerhouses.
"Wang Teng! Repent for your overconfidence!"
These Sky-Slayer kings were no pushovers. Even now, they remained united, giving no opportunity for them to be picked off one by one.
Ten terrifying attacks surged towards Wang Teng, and for a moment, the sky itself seemed to be crisscrossed with cracks, the void trembling and distorting.
Wang Teng's initial offensive was immediately dispersed.
However, the fighting spirit of the millions of humans below, condensed onto the [Pillar of Heaven], which was a celestial artifact governed by the law of 'firmness'. Although Wang Teng's armor instantly shattered and his body was covered in wounds, he still swung the staff.
"Boom!!"
The Sky-Slayer king who took the direct impact was Ikarn, a Sky-Slayer king who had just returned from battling an Immortal King.
He was actually slightly injured. Facing Wang Teng's strike, he was hesitant to intercept it, but with so many teammates present, he felt too embarrassed to flee.
Thus, he could only brace himself, brandishing his long saber, and clash with Wang Teng.
The result was that the moment his saber touched the [Pillar of Heaven], he felt his soul receive a violent shock.
It was as if countless human cultivators were roaring in his mind, his face instantly turning pale.
Wang Teng also suffered greatly, as he was fighting ten opponents alone. In this single exchange, he was immediately sent flying backward by the immense impact, his invincible golden body shattering instantly.
Wang Teng was indignant. If he were an Immortal King, he could have surely killed the opponent with that single blow.
"Pursue him directly and kill Wang Teng!"
The ten Sky-Slayer kings gave Wang Teng no chance to recover, as they knew he could only unleash such an attack once.
They charged at Wang Teng with ferocious expressions, seemingly not realizing that this feeling was more exhilarating than killing a human Immortal King.
Unbeknownst to them, each member of the Ice Sword Mercenaries had come to hold a greater significance in their hearts than an Immortal King.
Just then, an ice wall that blotted out the sky appeared, blocking the pursuit of these Sky-Slayer kings.
An aged figure emerged – it was none other than Cang Yuan, who had just seen off the sparks.
He wielded twin swords, one of ice and one of fire, standing before the ten kings.
With Cang Yuan's appearance, the morale of the fighting cultivators surged once more. To them, no matter how powerful the Ice Sword Mercenaries were, they were still outsiders. Only seeing their Lord Cang gave them more courage.
"Cang Yuan! You had a chance to escape, but you chose to come here and court death!"
"Haha, we've long disliked you. You can die with them!"
"Watching your kin wail must be agonizing for you, haha!"
"......"
They paid no heed to Cang Yuan's appearance, for they were ten strong, still in a battle that could not be lost.
The wounded Wang Teng arrived beside Cang Yuan. He turned to look at him and said, "Brother, I thought you and young brother Qingyun had returned to Blue Star."
"You fight for us, so how can I live in hiding?"
Following this, Qin Xiaoxiao, Meng Zibin, Shen Yingxue, and Bai Nianchen all gathered beside Cang Yuan.
Cang Yuan said, "I can buy you time, allowing you to return to your world..."
"Brother, are you joking? Do you think these trash barriers can stop the mark of our Immortal Brother? We're staying here simply to kill more Sky-Slayer dogs!"
