Kongur Peak.

Amid the howling wind and snow, a hand suddenly grabbed the edge of the nearly vertical mountain wall, and a figure climbed to the top with difficulty. He rolled twice in the snow like mud and lay on his back on the ground.

Immediately afterwards, another figure climbed up, coughed violently a few times, staggered two steps, and fell headfirst into the snow.

The two young men lay on the top of the peak, gasping for breath.

Lu Baoyou glanced at Fang Mo, and the corners of his cold mouth couldn't help but curl up:

"You...cough cough cough...you are half a second slower than me."

"If I hadn't mistakenly grabbed an illusory stone and slid down a few meters, you would have been the one slower than me." Fang Mo sneered, paused for a moment, and shook his head helplessly, "But I admit defeat... I admit that you won this time, Lu Baoyou."

boom--!!

The surging divine light and the low humming sound came from the distant border. Lu Baoyou and Fang Mo were both stunned. They struggled to get up from the ground and turned to look.

I saw endless black fog rolling not far from the border. Among the vast snowfield, a magnificent black stone tablet stood above the earth like a giant pillar reaching the sky. Gods in the sky stood beside the tablet and rushed towards it one after another.

"The Great Emperor of Beiyin Fengdu of Daxia, in response to the decree of the Heavenly Lord, is willing to sacrifice his own cultivation to protect the people of Daxia and bring them eternal peace!"

"The Great Xia Golden Immortal Chi**, in response to the decree of the Heavenly Lord, is willing to sacrifice his own cultivation to protect the people of Great Xia and bring them eternal peace!"

"The Great Xia Golden Immortal Huang Long, in response to the decree of the Heavenly Lord, is willing to sacrifice his own cultivation to protect the people of Great Xia and bring them eternal peace!"

"The Great Xia Water Virtue Star Lord, in response to the decree of the Heavenly Lord, is willing to sacrifice his own cultivation to protect the people of Great Xia and bring them eternal peace!"

“…”

One after another, the gods of Daxia, like moths to a flame, burned up their lifelong divine powers and crashed into the sky-reaching stone tablet.

Every time a god merged into it, the shape of the stone tablet became a little more solid. When the rolling black fog was approaching the border of Daxia, the stone tablet was already hundreds of meters high!

"That, that is..." Fang Mo looked at the scene in front of him and was completely stunned.

Lu Baoyou stood on the top of the peak, as if he had forgotten all the fatigue and pain in his body, staring into the distance like a stone sculpture, with deep shock in his eyes.

"That was the phantom of a hundred years ago when the gods of Daxia sacrificed their lives to turn into monuments and guard the border." A voice came from behind the two of them.

The two turned their heads and saw two men in crimson cloaks sitting on a protruding rock. One of them was Baili Pangpang who had just met them, and the other was Shen Qingzhu who was silent and holding a cigarette.

"The shadow of the Great Xia God from a hundred years ago?" Fang Mo muttered to himself, "Did all this really happen?"

"Of course, otherwise why did the Great Xia court fall apart, and why didn't the Great Xia gods appear for a hundred years?" Fatty Baili sighed, "In the past hundred years, they have actually been here all the time."

Fang Mo and Lu Baoyou looked at the sacred monument in the distance and fell into silence.

Before this, they also knew that Daxia's survival from the fog invasion was related to the gods of Daxia, but they did not know the details. It was not until this moment that they became witnesses of this history and truly understood the truth behind it.

The reason why they were able to be born and grow up safely was because a hundred years ago, countless Great Xia gods used their own cultivation and bodies to build a wall of miracles for them.

The day of resurrection is also the end of all the gods of Daxia.

Creak.

With his boots stepping on the thick snow, Shen Qingzhu dropped the cigarette butt in his mouth and calmly walked behind the two of them. His eyes calmly looked into the distance and he slowly spoke:

"Newbies."

"arrive!"

"……salute."

Shen Qingzhu stood there straight, silently raised his right arm, and saluted with a standard military salute to the gods of Daxia in the sky.

The whistling wind and snow brushed across the cheeks of the two young men. They looked at the flashing light in Shen Qingzhu's eyes, stunned for a moment, then reacted, turned around and saluted solemnly in the direction of the gods of Daxia.

One after another, new recruits staggered up from the edge of the mountain, and when they saw the scene before them, they all stood there in a daze.

After learning everything from their companions, they stared blankly at the silhouette of that time for a long time, biting their lips tightly, dragging their tired and weak bodies, forcing themselves to stand up straight, turning sideways to the distance, and raising their hands to salute.

That tragic and grand scene, those divine figures who rushed towards the stone tablet without hesitation, were deeply engraved in their hearts through their eyes.

The mountain, which should have been filled with cheers and excitement after passing the test, was now dead silent.

…

Kayushi Border Defense Company.

"Damn it, what on earth is going on..."

Ke Changlin stood on the top of the dormitory building, looking at the Tongtian Divine Monument which was less than two kilometers away from the border defense company, and stood there with his eyes wide open.

"Gods... they are all Great Xia gods." Su Zhe whispered to himself, "But why are there so many Great Xia gods here? What's with the fog?"

Hearing this, Ke Changlin was suddenly stunned.

"God? Could the legend be true?"

"What legend?"

Ke Changlin looked at the towering black monument in the distance and spoke slowly, "When I first came to this border defense company, I heard some rumors from the veterans. When the fog first fell, a black monument inexplicably appeared not far from the border defense company, and there were many gods standing on the clouds. It was like a dream."

"What happened next?" Su Zhe became interested.

"After daybreak, all the gods and monuments disappeared... but after that, the fog at the border never advanced even a little bit." Ke Changlin frowned slightly, "In the past, we all thought it was a story, saying that they saw a mirage, but now it seems... it's not that simple?"

As the two were talking, the loudspeakers throughout the border defense company suddenly emitted a crackling sound, and soon An Qingyu's voice echoed over the entire border defense company:

"Please don't panic, everyone in the border defense company. Follow my unified command..."

…

Divine figures rushed towards the black divine monument one after another, and the number of Great Xia gods resisting at the foggy border was decreasing.

"Friend Lin." A voice came from behind Lin Qiye. A Taoist priest was standing behind him, looking at him with a complicated expression.

"Master Yu Ding!"

Lin Qiye recognized at a glance Jade Ding Zhenren who brought him to the Peach Festival in Kunlun Xu.

"Little friend Lin, you should not get involved in this matter." Jade Ding Zhenren said seriously, "You have not yet entered the divine realm. Even if you sacrifice your life to enter the monument, it will not have much effect. Let us, the older generation, do this kind of thing...

We are about to enter reincarnation, and for a long time to come, Daxia will be handed over to you young people."
