Chapter 363: Battle of Heaven! Above the sky, dark clouds rolled, lightning...
Above the sky, dark clouds rolled, lightning flashed freely among the clouds, making a deafening roar.
The Mirage Clan and the Shadow Clan are separated into two different time and space, but they are united as one and are eager to fight.
"Form the formation!" Almost at the same time, Mirage Machine and the priestess gave the order at the same time. Their voices penetrated the clouds and reached the sky, as if declaring war on the way of heaven.
The Mirage Clan and the Shadow Clan acted quickly, each forming a complex and mysterious formation with units of tens of thousands of people.
"It's a sacrifice to the Devouring Array," Venerable Jiang Li said solemnly. "With souls as the price, and mirage light as the source, we will fight against the heavens and demonstrate to the heavens the will of the mirage race to become immortals."
The Mirage Clan used their powerful bloodline power to condense into a dazzling real sword. The sword body was flowing, strong and sharp.
The Shadow Clan used mirage light to weave a phantom sword, and the sword energy was so strong that it seemed to be able to cut through time and space and point directly to people's hearts.
In an instant, it poured down with an overwhelming breath of destruction.
The Mirage Clan and the Shadow Clan shouted in unison, and swung their real swords and phantom swords at the same time, cutting through the sky and confronting the thunder head-on.
The first thunder tribulation was instantly dispersed.
The second thunderbolt also disappeared without a trace within two breaths.
When faced with the third thunderbolt, the Mirage Clan and the Shadow Clan each used two swords.
The fourth thunderbolt turned the Shadow Clan member at the center of the formation transparent, yet they refused to retreat. Meanwhile, the Mirage Clan members' faces turned pale, their sweat and blood mingling, yet none of them was willing to give up!
The fifth tribulation thunder dissipated the Shadow Clan at the center of the formation, and new Shadow Clan members quickly took their place. The Mirage Clan quickly changed their formation, moving the outermost members to the inner circle.
The sixth thunderbolt caused cracks to appear on the two swords. As the real sword and the phantom sword broke apart, part of the Shadow Clan completely disappeared, and part of the Mirage Clan slowly fell to the ground, their bodies turning into mirage light and replenishing themselves in the formation.
The two tribes gathered their swords again and took the initiative to attack when the seventh thunderbolt descended. While blasting away the thunderbolt, they also lost a group of companions.
Their disappearing mirage light turned into pure power, merging into the bodies of the Mirage and Shadow tribes, giving them greater strength.
"Is this the power of devouring one's own kind?" The Mirage Clan and the Shadow Clan's strength increased three times from their original basis!
But it's too against the harmony of nature!
Venerable Jiang Li sighed, "When this formation was invented, it was to deal with the crisis of genocide. All the tribesmen who were devoured had only one end: their souls were scattered! But in order to preserve the flame of the tribe, they were willing to do it!"
"This... was invented by a human cultivator?" So, what kind of situation did they reach back then to invent such a self-sacrificing formation? How many people died before they finally achieved true victory?!
"That's right," Venerable Jiangli said calmly, as if he understood her doubts. "One billion!"
"It's not one billion cultivators, but one billion human beings," Wei Mubai added, "There weren't that many humans back then. Except for children under six years old, almost everyone entered the formation."
Xu Hui was horrified, "Doesn't that mean... the inheritance is broken?"
"Pretty much. The later methods of cultivation were discovered by those children after they grew up, based on the jade slips left behind. It took the efforts of several generations to achieve the flourishing and prosperity of later generations."
"It was also from that time that the human race began to dominate."
The demons and monsters did not unite with the human race, and destroyed the enemy with a large formation, protecting the human children in the mortal world with extremely strict protection, leaving the human race with fire and breathing space.
Although the demons also united to resist, they did not have the awareness to sacrifice themselves for the weaker demon races and cubs.
On the contrary, they believe that the strong are respected, and in the face of natural disasters, only the strong are qualified to survive.
In the end, most of the demons died in the battle, leaving only a few powerful and scattered demons, but they were already at the end of their strength.
Gradually, as the injuries worsened or the lifespan was exhausted, they disappeared from the world.
The current demon race is partly formed from their essence and blood, and partly from the plants in the demon world nourished by their essence and blood. Later, various animals ate those plants, developed their intelligence, and gradually developed.
But they are naturally different from the ancient great monsters. Their bloodline strength is weak and not as powerful. They are also subject to various restrictions, making it difficult for them to become immortals.
As for the demons, they are at the other extreme. Faced with the calamity of world destruction, their approach is to devour their own people, strengthen themselves, and then enjoy fighting against the heavens. The battle is so fierce that the sky is dark and the earth is chaotic, and they manage to destroy both the heavenly calamity and the demons.
The entire demon world was covered in thick demonic energy and demonic blood. There was no sound at all, and no plants or animals could survive.
The current demon clan is formed by the thick demon blood and demonic energy of the demon world, and can be regarded as the new demon clan.
Initially, there was nothing in the demon world except demonic energy and demonic blood. As the number of demons increased, the energy and blood gradually became thinner, and only then did space for other animals and plants to grow.
The demons are formed from the energy and blood of the previous demon clan, and they also consume demonic energy and blood, so their progress is much slower than that of humans.
Therefore, even the demons are no match for human cultivators!
"I don't seem to have seen this period of history." How come she didn't see such a magnificent epic in Wenxin Book Tower?
Venerable Jiang Li shook his head. "Although the Devouring Array was sacrificed to deal with the crisis of world destruction, it is the greatest threat. If evil cultivators knew about it and sacrificed their own kind, it would be the next catastrophe of world destruction. Therefore, the information was hidden by the aristocratic families, and only those with qualified character can see it."
"The Mirage Clan will know about this. I'm afraid they are here to trade with the Wen family."
I'm afraid they have already made up their minds that if there is really no way to break the shackles and find another way, they will give it a try even if it means sacrificing everyone!
Their appearance only helped the Mirage Clan, allowing them to see the hope of success and also ensuring the survival of the cubs to the greatest extent possible!
Xu Hui was extremely shocked. It turned out that all ethnic groups were so desperate to fight against their fate. It was so shocking!
When the eighth thunderbolt struck, half of the Shadow Clan disappeared. I guess the same thing happened to the Mirage Clan as well!
However, the strength of the remaining Shadow Clan continued to rise, directly increasing tenfold to become more powerful.
They quickly changed their formation, and the aura emitted by the formation of thousands of people was even more powerful than before. The phantom sword almost turned into a real sword, slashing directly at the heavenly calamity!
For freedom, to break the shackles of fate that have bound them for countless years.
"Fight! Fight! Fight!" The powerful sword intent soared into the sky, the most direct and pure fighting spirit, with a fearless momentum, rushed straight towards the last thunder tribulation.
As the phantom sword slashed forward, all the members of the Shadow Clan transformed into mirages and merged into the sword.
In the dark, the real sword and the phantom sword merged into one at this moment, turning into a peerless sword that transcended the boundaries of reality and illusion. Carrying the will and hope of all the people of the two tribes, it slashed towards the most terrifying thunder tribulation.
"boom!"
A loud bang rang out, and the world changed color. The peerless sword collided with the thunder tribulation, erupting in a dazzling light that engulfed the entire world. This stimulation made Xu Hui's eyes burst into tears. She slowly reached out and wiped away the tear.
She didn't know whether she was stimulated to shed tears or moved by the unyielding will, she just felt her heart was full.
A Dao heart called 'will' quietly grew, gradually breaking the solid moat built by the original ruthless Dao.
As the light gradually faded, the dark clouds in the sky began to dissipate, and the thunderbolt also disappeared, as if nothing had happened.
However, the ten thousand-man formation of the Mirage Clan and the Shadow Clan no longer existed, and the phantoms in the sky formed by the Shadow Clan members gradually faded away and eventually turned into nothingness.
They overcame the heavenly calamity!
It won a glimmer of hope for the Mirage Clan and the Shadow Clan, and paved the way for their people to ascend!
There was silence between heaven and earth as countless youngsters and cubs of the Mirage Clan slowly emerged and sent off their elders with the highest courtesy.
Suddenly, one of the cubs couldn't hold back and burst into tears.
This was like turning on a switch, and all the cubs burst into tears in unison, the loud and shrill cries bringing everyone back to their senses.
Spiritual rain began to fall from the sky. Venerable Yunxiu quickly used his spiritual power to attract a part of it and merged it into the formation, allowing the rest to spread throughout every corner of the reflected world.
Under the nourishment of the spiritual rain, the formation flowed slowly and suddenly split into two. One half gently covered the entire reflected world like a veil, covering every inch of land.
The other half quietly disappeared into the real Mirage Island and completely merged with the island, providing the Mirage Clan with an excellent environment to comprehend Taoism and create skills.
These two parts are actually not separated, and a subtle connection is established between reality and illusion, like the two poles of yin and yang, complementing each other and forming a complete cycle.
Whether it is the Shadow Clan in the reflected world or the Mirage Clan in the real world, they can all sense the existence of this formation.
From now on, they will embark on a brand new road to heaven that will allow them to ascend!
And at the moment the formation was completed, it seemed that countless consciousnesses appeared out of thin air and attached themselves to the formation.
"What is this?" Xu Hui was surprised. Are those the consciousnesses of the Mirage Clan?
The Mirage Clan reacted faster than her. They pounced forward in surprise and greeted each consciousness. Those whose names were called slowly emerged as illusory figures, looking gently at the backs of their fellow clansmen.
Although they cannot speak and cannot communicate with them, they protect the younger generations of the tribe in this way, and their presence continues even after their death!
"Is this what it means to live towards death?" Xu Hui said slowly, and suddenly felt that the ruthless path was not a truly advanced path, it should be the compassionate path!
The great way is for all. Only when you have compassion for all things and all living beings can you truly protect the universe from the bottom of your heart. This is the origin of the mission of God to be carried out!
If all gods were heartless, with no regard for the common people and no regard for all things in their hearts, and if everything they did was solely out of a sense of duty, how long would this sense of duty last? Sooner or later, loopholes would appear, and emotions like boredom would ensue.
"Crack!" Xu Hui seemed to hear the sound of cracks appearing in her heart of Taoism, but she did not intend to save it.
Because she believed that the ruthless path would never be her choice from the heart. For some reason, she chose the ruthless path before she lost her memory.
But now, she just wants to break this choice and open up a new path!
