Chapter 971: The War of the Mortal Realm

"There is no dead end in the heart... there is no dead end in the world..."

Chen Yuan murmured these eight characters, then suddenly looked up and laughed, his laughter piercing the clouds and shattering the ten thousand miles of layered clouds:

"A person's life..."

A person's life has different paths to walk.

But Chen Yan and Chen Zhu both have one thing in common.

This point is different from Xia Hanzhou, Lu Xunyang, and even the Yu Lord.

Xia Hanzhou's goal has always been only to protect the Xia Imperial Clan; following Chen Yan was only because their interests were aligned.

Lu Xunyang walked the same Dao as Chen Yan, but in the end, he was content to become Chen Yan's assistant.

The Yu Lord is the same; the Dao of technology is a way to save the world, but the Yu Lord has long since caused the entire universe to deviate from the Dao of technology.

The Xia Lord himself went all in, yet he also frequently interfered with Chen Yan's path.

Only Chen Zhu, Chen Yan, and Chen Fazhen.

From beginning to end, it has been one path, walking their own path as unswervingly as Chen Yan.

Three generations of the Chen family walked three different paths.

No matter which two people reached the end, a great war would break out.

"A person's life is meant to pursue everything."

Chen Yuan spoke in a low voice.

Suddenly.

Boom, boom, boom!

Streams of Qi-blood fire exploded from his body, and one Qi-blood clone after another burst forth!

There were fifty of them!

"Not good!"

The Yu Lord's pupils constricted:

"Zhang Huizhi!"

Boom!

Within the borders of Yu Province, a violent roar suddenly shook the four directions.

Someone sitting in meditation raised their head, a brilliant light appearing in their eyes.

The next moment.

Boom!

A powerful pressure belonging to a Ninth-Order simulation status exploded, and Zhang Huizhi joined the battlefield in an instant like a stream of light!

At the same time.

On the distant horizon, a blazing sun crossed over, magnificent and fiery, infinitely glorious.

Xia Zhiyang!

"Chen Yuan, each clone can only last for fifteen minutes; after fifteen minutes, it will be your death day!"

A monstrous pressure of Qi-blood poured down from Xia Zhiyang, descending upon the earth and causing the world to lie dormant.

Countless people looked stunned, unable to believe this scene was happening.

The Martial Dao Lord belonging to the ancient era had appeared at this moment!

"That is the Lord of Qi-blood!"

"It is the son of the Xia Lord!"

"He is still here, he has always been here!"

Voices of reverence rose one after another.

Xia Zhiyang joined the battle!

A punch fell, the vast fist imprint carrying endless Qi-blood power, suppressing Chen Yuan's fifteen Qi-blood clones.

That terrifying fist wind could not be blocked even if ten of Chen Yuan's clones performed 【Dao Slash】 together.

Zhang Huizhi wore the Ninth-Order simulation core, and the status belonging to the Ninth-Order continuously channeled status energy to Zhang Huizhi.

With a wave of his hand, Zhang Huizhi tore the heavens and earth, and the power he unleashed was not even weaker than the Elemental Lord.

Because, even if Zhang Huizhi himself is not Ninth-Order.

He possesses all the memories belonging to Chen Yan's promotion to the Ninth-Order.

Zhang Huizhi's application of the Ninth-Order simulation core even exceeds that of the Yu Lord.

Even though the current Zhang Huizhi no longer has the eight great god-level elements, with the addition of the Ninth-Order simulation core, he is even stronger than before.

Boom, boom, boom!

His fists were fierce, and he fought Chen Zhu's fifteen clones alone.

As for the Yu Lord and the Elemental Lord, they relied on the weapon support of Yu Province to fight the remaining Chen Zhu clones.

"I don't know why your true body has remained still, but after fifteen minutes, what will you do?"

The Yu Lord's voice was extremely low.

One has to admit, even if these Qi-blood clones will disappear after fifteen minutes.

But at this moment, Chen Zhu has indeed managed to suppress the four supreme powerhouses alone!

This is the most insane great war in the history of the human race.

Creation-realm powerhouses charged like flying insects, colliding with one another.

The sky was filled with lasers and bullets fired from all directions of Yu Province.

The laser turrets of the surrounding city clusters roared in unison, and scarlet lasers tore through the sky like a rainstorm.

High in the firmament, rows of orbital satellite triangles wove together a dense light-net, their scorching rays making the void hiss and crackle.

This was the reason Li Zhiyi chose to set the battlefield in Yu Province.

Yu Province itself was a massive source of combat power.

The fewer wars Yu Province experienced, the greater the accumulated war resources would be.

This battle would consume over a thousand years of Yu Province's accumulation.

Boom, boom, boom!

The sounds of countless Qi-blood, internal energy, formations, elements, and True Intent strikes rang out incessantly.

The corpses of experts fell like dead insects, dropping into the ocean, dropping onto the streets and alleys of Yu Province, and between its high-rise buildings!

Hum, hum, hum!

Heaven and Earth wept blood!

The phenomena of Eighth-Order beings falling erupted continuously!

Tragic, tragic, tragic!

"Kill!"

"For the Five Clans!"

"Great Xia shall be victorious!"

"Kill those bastards, ahhh!"

"Kill these vermin!"

"For our Great Xia Heavenly God General, for our Lord of Human Will!"

Countless roars resounded.

Above the sea.

Group after group of Great Xia martial artists arrived.

This battle had not been arranged for anyone below the Origin Realm to participate.

But now, some had rushed in regardless of military orders.

Everyone knew that this would be the battle to determine the future situation of humanity.

Neither the Five Clans nor Great Xia could afford to lose.

"Kill!!!"

Countless warriors roared as they charged at each other; blades and swords clashed, energy exploded, and corpses fell like rain into the streets.

Where the lasers swept, scorched earth stretched in swathes; amidst the roar of turrets, flesh and blood splattered!

The entire Yu Province had devolved into a slaughterhouse, the world filled with a frenzy of killing and destruction.

They were mad.

Everyone was mad!

Even the death of an Eighth-Order expert could not cause the slightest ripple.

One Creation Realm expert would die, and the next Origin Realm expert would step over their corpse to charge at the enemy.

In the past, a Creation Realm expert was a god.

But in today's great war, except for the supreme powerhouses, everyone was merely expendable cannon fodder.

With a loud boom!

Little Siling died at the hands of a Five Clans Eighth-Order expert.

Tears welled in the eyes of the Grand Minister, yet he still wielded the Star Ruler to press forward.

Even the Mountain-Suppressing God General was besieged by dozens of Creation Realm experts and lost an arm.

Some experts were covered in blood; as they looked back, their close friends had already died and fallen.

This battle did not even have a moment of respite.

Within the distant sea.

"Chen Yan!!!"

This was Zhang Xing's voice.

A behemoth struggled in the deep sea, its body covered in countless heads, all of which were being smashed apart by Lu Xunyang's punches.

That massive flesh cracked like pottery, and pitch-black malice gushed out from the fissures.

Lu Xunyang's strikes were extremely ruthless, not to mention he held the Great Xia Lord Sword in his hand.

The Unmanifest Void Sacrifice could not stop him.

However, at this moment, the boundless hatred from the Unmanifest Void Sacrifice seemed to have turned into substance.

Across the ten thousand miles of void where Li Zhiyi stood, countless pitch-black spatial rifts suddenly descended.

"Lord of Will, it has always been you!"

Zhang Xing's voice was shrill to the extreme, filled with boundless killing intent.

Crack, crack, crack!

The rifts in the void suddenly opened, and eyeballs, large and small, appeared just like that.

Millions of Ancient God Beasts!

They had been teleported here by Zhang Xing using a strange power.

Now, all the Ancient God Beasts in the entire outside world were going to fight Chen Yan to the death.

Screech!

Piercing sounds filled the sky incessantly.

That twisted, insane gibberish vibrated between the sea and the sky.

Li Zhiyi lowered his head, stroking the Ash-Evil Spear.

Those familiar patterns were once again felt by Li Zhiyi.

Hum!

The Heavenly God Armor and the Ash-Evil Spear vibrated simultaneously, humming incessantly.

Since emerging from seclusion, these two divine artifacts had been kept by the Great Xia imperial clan within the Xia Lord Temple to be nurtured.

Now, they had long since evolved into the pinnacle divine artifacts of the mortal world.

The next moment.

Li Zhiyi swung the spear in a horizontal sweep.

Whoosh!

The firmament was suddenly torn asunder, and a million Ancient God Beasts poured down from the void rift!

There were eight-headed giant pythons coiled around mountains, thousand-eyed rotting birds obscuring the daylight, and even more countless deformed flesh aggregates flooding the world like a tide.

Endless and boundless, as if without limit.

The Ancient God Beasts formed a tidal wave across the sky, hanging directly between the heavens and the sea, rolling down to suppress Li Zhiyi.

As the people of the world watched this scene, they felt their hearts stop.

Even if the situation on the side of the Chen Lord was earth-shattering, it was still a battle between humans.

But the instant the Ancient God Beasts appeared, it made people feel a fear rising from the depths of their hearts.

Yet this fear only appeared for an instant.

Because the next instant, the people all remembered together that standing before all the Ancient God Beasts.

Was the human race's youngest Divine General, the youngest Master of the Martial Dao.
