The days spent fighting the Abyss passed quickly.
Jiang Wuyuan travels between the three countries bordering the Abyss, and can only use his spare time to cultivate.
In short, the facts were just as he had predicted—he had no chance to rest at all.
The Wuhen Hunting Group arrived at the border to provide support a month after the start of the war. At that time, Jin Quexie had already reached the peak of the Grandmaster level, just one step away from becoming a Saint.
Upon meeting Jiang Wuyuan, the first thing he said was thank you.
As a sword cultivator, he understood very well the value of that skill scroll.
And Jiang Wuyuan was actually willing to give him such a thing; he liked this junior brother.
First of all, she has a very likable personality and doesn't have many messy or troublesome issues.
Moreover, they are very strong.
Most importantly, they were willing to give him good things—that's what Jin Quexie thought, having been completely won over by a skill book.
In the subsequent battles, Jin Quexie indeed demonstrated his talent as a genius swordsman.
With a sword-drawing technique identical to Jiang Wuyuan's, he directly and furiously slew three seventh-tier peak alien races.
After that battle, Jin Quexie became famous.
...
Although the human race had Jiang Wuyuan as a trump card, they had not encountered any major troubles. In fact, the first line of defense of the border of the Heistan Empire, which had been attacked by alien races, was recaptured after Jiang Wuyuan's arrival.
But the military leadership, or rather, everyone who cares about current events, knows that the most crucial issue is not the current alien invasion, but the semi-imperial alien race that could awaken at any time.
It was like a knife hanging over his head, ready to fall at any moment, making Lu Xingchuan uneasy day and night.
Not only him, but Xia Fusheng, who was in the capital, felt the same way.
Only Jiang Wuyuan remained completely unaffected by these messages.
He goes to the battlefield where he is needed.
With no battles to fight, he would cultivate in his room, continuing to refine his own Dao of the Sword.
At the time, the alien leader said he had "taken that step," and that was indeed the case.
If Jiang Wuyuan's blood and qi power hadn't yet reached the peak of the Saint realm, he would definitely be the first human to step into the Half-Emperor level—excluding Hua Fuye, who was no longer considered human at that time.
It was precisely because of the difference in their cultivation levels that he dared not use the power of the Great Dao too much.
After experiencing the sword spirit possession incident, Jiang Wuyuan understood very well that his body was not yet at the level to withstand the Great Dao.
Even just touching the threshold of the Great Dao is not enough.
However, that day is not far away.
——
Three months later.
late at night.
On this ordinary yet extraordinary night, whether they were fast asleep or diligently cultivating, everyone heard a thunderous roar that resounded throughout the entire continent.
It was as if the world was in mourning, yet it also sounded like the excited cry of some creature.
The rhythm was strange, yet it instilled a sense of dread for no reason.
Jiang Wuyuan broke free from his meditative state and suddenly looked up into the distance.
There was nothing in the distance, and the sky remained overcast and gloomy. Even at night, the light was only slightly dimmer than during the day, with almost no difference.
But Jiang Wuyuan knew clearly that this was a sign that something big was about to happen.
What are some of the most important things on Earth right now that deserve our attention?
It's probably only the... half-emperor alien race.
...
At this moment, in the forbidden abyss.
The five people, including Sheng Wanshi and Ye Lingyue, immediately assumed a defensive posture upon hearing the sound.
Even without the Half-Emperor emerging, they spent nearly three months near the Abyss Forbidden Land.
Now, that day has finally come.
"Get ready and take care of your respective formation plates!"
"yes!"
The five of them stared intently at the ravine in the very center of the forbidden abyss, their eyes not daring to relax for a moment.
As the eerie screech gradually faded away, several figures were seen soaring into the sky from the ravine.
Endless dark power surrounded them, and their every move seemed to be able to influence the great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
The leader of the alien race completely ignored them, the humans, and simply took a deep breath.
"Ah...it's the taste of enjoyment."
The taste of blood food, the taste of the immature Heavenly Dao, the taste of the powerful energy emanating from the core of the world.
They are born predators, plundering everything in the universe.
From beginning to end, no living thing could stop them.
However, this blue planet was an exception.
Not only did the Heavenly Dao unexpectedly awaken its will, but its overall strength also became exceptionally powerful.
If it weren't for the fact that the emperors and powerful beings who once existed on this continent had left this world for reasons unknown, they probably wouldn't have been confident enough to conquer Blue Star.
Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs" in this world.
For millions of years, not a single emperor has ever been born on this continent; otherwise, their kings probably wouldn't be so obsessed with plundering the resources of Earth.
"Five saints?" Lin Yan lowered his head slightly, his gaze sweeping over the humans standing in the five directions around them.
These humans surrounded them in a circle, seemingly thinking that this would effectively trap them. Unfortunately, the humans had no idea of the terror of a half-emperor.
Before the Great Dao, all other forces are insignificant.
Chanqing stood beside Linyan and smiled indifferently: "Didn't we already sense it?"
Although they were below the crevice, they were not entirely unaware of what was happening above.
Five demigod-level formations would indeed cause them considerable trouble.
