Chapter 273 The "Dao" Before the Sinking



Before setting off again, the four split up and inspected thousands of square meters of land in the valley.

Sure enough, they found many more jars containing the human race's fortune underground. Many of them had been broken in the battle just now, but more than three hundred were intact.

The four men temporarily piled the bottles in the valley and set up a protective flag.

These blessings ultimately belong to the human race, so they had to take them back with them when they returned.

“Something’s strange,” Shen Qian murmured, stroking some marks on the scorched earth.

"What's wrong?" Venus, who was nearby, asked.

"Judging from the arrangement of the formations here, it should be some kind of refining formation, but..." Shen Qian was somewhat puzzled.

"Just what?" Venus asked curiously.

"You read that right. The formations engraved here are used to extract the luck of the human race. As I suspected, the Spirit Witch Clan refines the human warriors they capture right here and then transports the extracted luck to some other place."

Before Chen Qian could say anything, Number 56 took the lead.

"To refine a living person is incredibly painful! Those alien races deserve to die!"

Venus's face turned cold.

The red mixed in with the white aura inside the bottles and jars is the remnant of flesh and blood.

I already knew this before, and now I can only sigh.

...

High in the sky, the four people were a hundred meters apart, moving forward at a leisurely pace.

Looking down at the scenery of the other world, Chen Qian soon lost interest and stopped looking around.

"Actually, most of the worlds behind the 'doors' are not that special. At most, the colors of the sky or sea are different, or the temperature and humidity are slightly different, but overall they are more or less the same."

Number 56 seemed to see through Shen Qian's thoughts and explained with a smile, "After all, the birth of life has its own laws, and there are always some necessary conditions."

He nodded slightly.

If there's anything special about this minor world where the Spirit Witch Clan lives, it's that shooting stars occasionally streak across the sky, making it quite beautiful, but after looking at it for a long time, it can become visually tiring.

Suddenly, Iron Hammer, who was walking at the front, stopped.

At the same time, Shen Qian and the others also noticed the abnormality and slowed down.

With a flick of his hammer, the fog in front of him dissipated, revealing a place below that resembled a human town.

The city walls, which looked ridiculously simple from Shen Qian's perspective, were rows of houses built with some kind of unknown black mud mixed with white bricks and tiles, the tallest of which was no more than four stories high.

But the town has a relatively large population, at least tens of thousands.

For the Spirit Witch Clan, whose total population is only a few hundred thousand, this should already be considered a large city.

As for why Shenqian was able to know the number of people so accurately, it was because all the Spirit Witch Clan members living in this town came out.

They were positioned on the city walls, streets, and building rooftops, watching the four figures in mid-air with eyes full of hatred, fear, and irony.

Clearly, the Spirit Witch Clan who had previously escaped had brought the message here.

The Spirit Witch Clan members they encountered at the entrance were all warriors dressed in black robes. Only now, as they sank in, did they see what the ordinary people of the Spirit Witch Clan looked like.

Aside from being generally shorter, having more defined features, frighteningly white skin, and a pair of deep blue eyes, they don't look much different from humans at first glance.

"Why didn't they escape?" Shen Qian was slightly surprised.

With just a slight sweep of his mental energy, he could sense that among these tens of thousands of people, the one with the strongest aura was probably only around the level of a high-level martial artist.

Even if they outnumbered each other, it would be meaningless in the face of four mountains and seas.

"Smaller races tend to be more united when facing external enemies; you should understand why."

Venus seemed to be thinking about something, and said softly with a complicated look in her eyes.

He nodded, his gaze sweeping over the faces etched with hatred, and he felt a pang of sadness.

Already weak, if they do not unite, destruction is only a matter of time.

On the contrary, as the group grows larger, internal strife is more likely to occur. This is not only due to the complexity of human nature, but also a common characteristic of all things.

"Do not show any pity or sympathy, and do not doubt yourself because of their shared hatred of the enemy."

Number 56 glanced at Chen Qian and reminded him.

"Not at all," Shen Qian shook his head. "It's just a bit of a feeling of nostalgia."

"That's good."

What are we waiting for?

Shen Qian could see that the Spirit Witch Clan members in the town below were constantly busy, as if they were setting up some kind of formation, but he didn't understand why No. 56 and the others didn't seem to be launching an attack.

"The formation below is nothing to fear. Unless you stand still and let them attack you, it can be broken in an instant."

Number 56 said calmly, "The ones we really have to face are not them."

As if in response to No. 56's words, Shen Qian looked up as if he had a premonition and saw nine dark shadows appearing in the distant sky.

Those people seemed to be floating on clouds, drifting towards us at a moderate speed, but the sky gradually darkened as they moved.

It was as if all the starlight had been swallowed up by them.

"Mountains and Seas!"

Shen Qian's gaze sharpened.

He had read some miscellaneous books in the library. Everything has its own laws, just like the conditions for the birth of life mentioned by No. 56 before, and so does Yu Kong.

Aside from races born with wings, for most life forms, being able to stand on the sky is equivalent to entering a transcendent level.
