Chapter 408: Slay the Demigod Priest! The Soul Origin Heart Evolves!

"Hahahaha… why don't you run!!"

Inoue Gorjuurobe laughed wildly, his face full of cruel expression, "Didn't expect it, did you? Hiding all the way here and we still found you!"

In order to complete the mission.

He led over twenty Tier 9 professionals, following the direction given by the Supreme, chasing relentlessly.

Finally, they found the contestants who had fled from Xuanlong Nation.

"You think that with just a mere Tier 9 magic formation, you can stop us?"

"How naive!"

"You can run once, but can you run a second time?"

"Will you surrender obediently, or do you intend to fight to the bitter end?"

"……"

Facing Inoue Gorjuurobe's taunts, Wang Zhilin and the others furrowed their brows tightly, never expecting the underground rats of Sakura Island to catch up so quickly.

And with such a massive display of force.

Among their people, there were only a little over ten Tier 9 professionals; the rest were all Tier 8!

Ordinarily, placed anywhere, they would be a force not to be underestimated.

Unfortunately, what they now faced was the entire underground rats of Sakura Island, who struck with over twenty Tier 9 professionals in one move.

A way out……

Seemed to be gone.

They had escaped the 【Dark Devouring Magic Formation】, yet still could not escape the pursuit of the 【Divine Temple】 underground rats.

Now, they could only fight to the death!!

"Are you all ready?"

Wang Zhilin's resolute gaze swept over all the people of Xuanlong Nation, a trace of ease showing through his grave tone.

"Fight!!"

"Even if we die, we must drag one down with us!"

"Killing one is no loss, killing two is a profit!"

"A real man dies on the battlefield—that is his final resting place, always ready for battle."

"We're not afraid either. Today we'll show you—who says women are inferior to men?"

"The people of Xuanlong Nation only die in battle, never surrender!!"

"Kill!!"

A smile surfaced on Wang Zhilin's face. With such a group of lovely comrades, this life was worth it!

Come on!

Let's fight!

"Kill!!"

The battle began, skills surging forth unceasingly, ruthlessly destroying everything around them.

The entire island swayed ceaselessly upon the sea.

Facing the endless attacks, the people of Xuanlong Nation could only hold on with bitter effort.

Tier 9 battles were truly too powerful!

Every additional one meant another layer of crushing force.

Let alone the gap between the two sides being so vast—Xuanlong Nation managing to hold on was already no easy feat.

Time slipped away amid the fighting.

Finally……

The Tier 9 magic formation was broken; the true bloodbath was about to begin!

"Hold the line, not a single one can be lost!!"

The pressure on Wang Zhilin instantly multiplied countless times over.

But alas… a defense held too long must eventually fall; under the frenzied assault of the Sakura Island Tier 9 professionals, the defensive line finally collapsed.

"Comrades, I'll go on ahead. What a pity I still can't make it back to the Blood Fortress in the end!"

One after another, voices of resolve rang out. The first Tier 9 professional of Xuanlong Nation finally made his decision and began to self-destruct!!

"Old Li, no…"

"Teacher Li!!"

"Damned underground rats, I'll fight you to the death!"

"Kill them!!"

"……"

Accompanied by one tragic cry after another, the people of Xuanlong Nation were all enraged.

But once self-destruction began, it could not be stopped.

All they could do was guard, guard until the self-destruction released!

"Hmph hmph… self-destruct? You underestimate us far too much!"

Inoue Gorjuurobe sneered coldly. A grey token appeared in his hand, and a grey defensive shield materialized, enveloping all the Tier 9 professionals within it.

"Too bad, I'll let you die far too easily!"

"You damned Xuanlong Nation commoners… ah… ah…"

Before Inoue Gorjuurobe's voice had even finished falling, a figure appeared beside him at this moment. A vicious punch directly blasted his arm into a mist of blood.

Immediately after, an icy voice rang out.

"A mere ground rat, and you dare to make up stories about Xuanlong Nation?! Who gave you the nerve!!"

"Bar… Barbarian God, you guys aren't—"

Inoue Gojurokuro was instantly dumbfounded, cold sweat pouring out nonstop—terror, agony…

The next moment.

His pupils contracted sharply. One figure after another appeared, each one a familiar face, and finally he could no longer hold it together.

"You… you…"

"Annoying!!"

The Barbarian God punched Inoue Gojurokuro right on the head, blasting him into smithereens on the spot.

And at this moment…

"Little Li, you're far too reckless!!"

A holy radiance descended, enveloping Teacher Li mid-self-detonation. In an instant, Teacher Li's body abruptly contracted, and the violent energy within him was instantly soothed.

And Teacher Li then "happily" fainted.

"Phew…"

Wang Zhilin and the others, seeing who had arrived, immediately breathed a sigh of relief, their faces breaking into smiles.

The Xuanlong Nation half-god squad had arrived!!
