The chaotic battle began. In front, the sea formations rose up to resist the might of the myriad seas, while behind, Jiang Yuan fought against the half-dead sea race. The fighting spirit of the human race was at an all-time high, and step by step, they pushed the sea race back into the sea.
The fierce counterattack lasted all day, and blood stained the sea area for hundreds of miles near the shore. Hundreds of billions of sea creatures floated on the surface of the sea, nourishing this ocean with their own blood.
Under Jiang Yuan's leadership, the human race won its first large-scale counterattack!
This sends an extremely terrifying message: humanity is returning to its racial peak.
The sea race is a complex race, not a single race. Even so, the human race still won the counterattack under immense pressure, which alone proves everything.
Humans are still the race that dominated the battlefield where gods fell. They can rise up to challenge the gods, and they can also sacrifice themselves to benefit their descendants.
"Seniors, have you seen it? The fire of the Godfall Battlefield has spread to the final battlefield!"
Jiang, with the giant reef behind him, gazes at the horizon where the sea meets the sky. The sacrifices of countless human ancestors have not been in vain; their spirit has been passed down.
"puff!"
Before he could finish speaking, a mouthful of foul, black blood gushed from Jiang Yuan's abdomen; the world was turning against him.
The divinely manifested Olympus shattered his Dharma form and tore apart his eight gates. Even though he stood above the Nine Provinces and drew upon endless power, Olympus's divinity still corrupted his soul.
"You're not dead yet, are you!"
A slightly teasing voice came from the front line. Jiang Yuan withdrew his gaze, and a figure slowly walked towards him.
"If you're not dead, how could I be?" Jiang Yuan's smile was calm, and although his reply was harsh, it was not malicious.
The newcomer was none other than Taihaotian, the young master of the Fuxi clan. The two had once fought to the death, but now they could forgive and forget each other with a smile.
"To be honest, I almost don't recognize you anymore!"
Taihaotian, clad in armor, put down his blood-stained sword and sat on the reef facing the setting sun.
"What do you mean by that!"
The battle had subsided, and Jiang Yuan's tense nerves gradually relaxed, so he started chatting with his 'old friend'.
"Before, I could at least walk back and forth with you!"
Taihaotian removed his heavy armor and then said self-deprecatingly, "Now, I'm not even good enough to connect with the aftershocks of your battle!"
"Is there a difference? All we want is a peaceful and prosperous world!"
As his injuries worsened, Jiang Yuan simply removed his Nine Provinces Armor and shed his wartime state, recalling, "However, I was pushed to the forefront by the chaotic tides of the world. Either lead the tide, or..."
"Buried by the tide!"
He was forced to reach this level, because if he wanted to survive, he had no choice but to keep going.
"Have you thought about what to do after the war ends?" Taihaotian said something completely out of character for him. In the past, he was just a willful playboy, but now he was thinking about the future.
"You're not the first person to ask me this question."
Jiang Yuan let his arm fall into the blood-stained seawater and said calmly, "Perhaps for me, staying away from filth is the thing I want to do most!"
"The battlefield is like this ocean; no matter how much blood is shed, it will be diluted by the endless seawater, because it is this very sea that produces this blood!"
He was weary of spending his days surrounded by the blood of living beings.
He watched the receding crimson tide and muttered to himself, "The source of the filth is not the blood, but this sea, the entire battlefield!"
"Although I don't fully understand, I can understand your feelings. The battlefield has taken away so much from us: family, friends, loved ones, even our country and our race!"
Taihaotian's tone lacked the expected indignation, because such things had happened too often, and he was gradually becoming numb to them.
"Alright, the battle is almost over. Go to the front lines and make arrangements. I'll treat you to a drink when I have some free time!"
Jiang Yuan got up to return to Haicheng. The human race had won this battle, so he didn't need to boost morale on the front lines. What he needed most now was to rest and recuperate in preparation for the sea race's even fiercer attack.
"Hey, wait a minute!"
Jiang Yuan was dragging his tired body toward Haicheng when he was suddenly stopped by Tai Haotian.
"What's wrong? Is there something else?" Jiang Yuan asked, puzzled.
"Tan'er, she..." Taihaotian hesitated. He didn't know if his guess was accurate. It was a fact that Mi Tan'er had vanished into thin air, but he always felt that there was something left of Mi Tan'er in the world.
"Tan'er is afraid of the dark, so spend more time with her when you have time to go back to the Fuxi clan."
Taihaotian couldn't bring himself to say it, but could only remind Jiang Yuan to visit Mi Tan'er's grave more often, hoping that with his keen senses, he might be able to detect some problems.
"good."
Jiang Yuan had promised to visit Mi Tan'er every month, but he had been too busy with the naval and land battles to do so, so he had to postpone it.
...
"Brother Yuan, you're injured!"
Jiang Yuan had just returned to Haicheng when the Six Celestial Bodies of the Oath returned from the Apocalypse World with a full load of treasures.
"Husband, how did you get hurt like this?"
Tang Yingjun, An Xiaoyu, and the others quickly surrounded him. They had only been inside for a little over a day, and with Jiang Yuan's combat strength, he was fully capable of taking charge of the battle.
"We killed a few half-decayed beings, and their intensified divine power corrupted our very essence. We'll be fine after a few days of rest," Jiang Yuan reassured them.
"He needs to rest for a few more days; this damage is to his very essence!"
Gong Suxin grabbed Jiang Yuan's wrist, then poured her life force into it. After examining it, her expression became even more unpleasant.
"I'm really fine." Jiang Yuan withdrew his hand, then laughed and said, "Everyone's constitution is different. This level of injury wouldn't even rank in the top ten of my injury history."
"By the way, how was your haul?"
Jiang Yuan changed the subject, saying that if he had enough attribute energy, he could create a huge amount of creations.
"They have collected over 90% of the attribute energy of China, and they all want to contribute to China."
"Other countries have also contributed nearly half of their own stockpiles. Now, the eyes of every human race are focused on the battle of Haicheng. They are well aware of the consequences of losing this battle, so no one is holding back."
"If converted to the size of a first-stage Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, the total amount of attribute energy we collected this time is 100,000 units!"
An Xiaoyu reported all the gains truthfully. This was the maximum that the entire Apocalypse World could contribute for the time being. It was no exaggeration to say that they had emptied the Apocalypse World out this time. It would take the Apocalypse World five or six years to recover to its normal level.
"One hundred thousand copies."
Jiang Yuan nodded; this number was indeed enough to sustain a racial war.
"Brother Yuan, what are you planning to do? With your injuries, can you still generate a lot of resources?" Tang Yingjun asked with concern. If Jiang Yuan falls, no matter how many fully equipped troops China sends out, it will be difficult to gain an advantage against the sea tribe's overwhelming offensive.
"You press your advantage against the sea creatures, don't give them a chance to catch their breath. I'm returning to the City of Reincarnation to prepare for the next steps!"
Jiang Yuan looked up at the oppressive Imperial Sea in the sky and said, "Within seven days, I want no other crystals besides the Imperial Sea Cube to float on the land of China!"
