Its Iron Face was shrouded in a layer of misty vapor, revealing only a pair of eye pupils burning with ghostly purple flames; wherever its gaze fell, even the wind and snow froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surging vitality and mental fluctuation aura were presented as data information within its perception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The analysis information from the Evil Eye was sufficient to prove that this was a very powerful opponent; even the strongest Demon Seed in its possession was no match for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, the purple-winged evil demon in the perception perspective slowly raised its head, its gaze piercing through the battlefield barrier to look at the surging Black Black Tide, and instantly its eyes became incredibly sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing such a powerful opponent, the Earth-Chant Evil Spirit immediately felt pressure, but there was not the slightest thought of retreat in its heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brothers, lend me some resources; there's a tough battle ahead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its voice rang out in the mental network of the Bully Alliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon receiving the request from the Earth-Chant Evil Spirit, Ghost Fang, Iron Spine, Blood Pattern, and Rotten Heart did not hesitate in the slightest; they decisively transmitted Black Black Tide energy to the high tower where the Earth-Chant Evil Spirit was located via the Evil Moon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have only one thought: beat him to death.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please be cruel; after watching the shared perspective, I feel nauseous whenever I see purple skin now.

As Black Black Tide energy continuously poured in, the contours of its muscles gradually clarified, finally transforming into a ferocious figure wearing a black-armored mask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surging Qi and blood energy radiated outward from the Demon Seed Warrior in concentric ripples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, noticing the Black Black Tide pressing down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Mu, tasked with guarding the battlefield, pupils contracting sharply, slapped his twin purple wings behind him violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, the snow covering the entire snowfield was whipped up by violent air currents, transforming into a white storm that obscured the sky and blocked out the sun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the center of the storm, his figure slowly floated into the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A great battle was imminent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a tremendous crash, the Demon Seed Warrior's body swelled at a speed visible to the naked eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a colossal Giant of Slaughter, massive as a mountain range.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its huge fist clenched tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment it swung out, carrying two spiraling streams of dark red and deep blue air, it thrust straight toward the floating Xie Mu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Needing no useless words, the fist itself was the best declaration of the Earth Nian Evil Spirit: Fight!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, black ripples surged in the eyes of the Earth Nian Evil Spirit as well, preparing to enter the Five-Eyes-Unified War Command Cultivation Mode.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just then, the purple demonic figure in the wind and snow retreated backward with ghost-like speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fist shadow condensed from Qi and blood smashed onto the spot where the purple demon had just been standing, causing the ground to collapse abruptly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A second punch followed immediately, but the purple demon retreated again, utterly unwilling to engage head-on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hm?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The purple demon's behavior made the Earth Nian Evil Spirit frown involuntarily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bliss Palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Lord of Bliss sat cross-legged upon the sacrificial altar as Xie Mu's anxious voice rang in his ears:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My Lord, grave news; the Black Black Tide is attacking!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing these words, the smile in the eyes of the Lord of Bliss, who had just been rejoicing over a recent batch of powerful captured living beings, vanished; he snapped his head up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew Xie Mu was currently at the Winter Snowfield Breed Experiment Base.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His consciousness shifted there in the next second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the Black Black Tide surging toward the outskirts of the Winter Snowfield region, the Lord of Bliss's heart sank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scene he least wished to see had occurred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The power of the Black Black Tide had already permeated the Winter Snowfield region, meaning this area was no longer safe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My Lord, do you require me to act?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Mu sent another inquiry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing the surging pressure of the Black Black Tide, the Lord of Bliss gave a decisive answer:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dismantle all removable resources; retreat!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Based on his understanding of the Black Black Tide, the strength of this Black Black Tide branch was not great; he was fully capable of handling it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for the sake of caution, he still chose to let go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was also his consistent style of development.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having stood firm since the Calamity War, he relied solely on absolute prudence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was also the core reason he had always been unwilling to expand territory in the Monster World, choosing instead to hide and develop within the Bliss Main Hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the Bliss Branch Halls established in the Monster World were often damaged by foreign races.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This did not affect his development.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one was destroyed, he could simply find a new region and open another; he could still steadily earn Bliss Energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was absolutely no need to deadlock with any faction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps behind a seemingly weak faction, a mantis stalks the cicada while the oriole lurks behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Retaliatory strikes feel good for a moment, but the moment one falls into a strong race's trap, tears will be of no use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having survived to this day, he deeply understood one principle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Survival has never been a hymn to courage, but a cultivation of patience; rash men are destined not to live long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his long memories, he had witnessed too many overlord-level factions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They advanced triumphantly in the Monster World, their legions invincible, yet now all had become corpses buried deep beneath the earth of the Monster World.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How fierce the opening, so tragic the civilization's march toward destruction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To survive in the Monster World, this terrifying battlefield, one must learn to bow and sacrifice interests at the appropriate time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anger, pride, and dignity; these are luxuries in which only truly strong races indulge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those clans with no foundation whatsoever who try to mimic the high-end emotions of top-tier strong races—if they don't die, who will?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To have lived until today, he calculated only pros, cons, and risks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there was even a one percent risk of clan extermination, this battle was not worth investing in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the code of survival in the Monster World.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps such behavior seemed cowardly, but the Lord of Bliss had never cared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those clans that insisted on dignity and pride had long perished in the river of time, while his \"Bliss Chain Halls\" grew steadily in the Monster World, their output of resources becoming increasingly abundant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had seen too many clans whose \"certain victory\" was reversed at the last moment, ultimately plunging them into the desperate situation of extermination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, true survival wisdom is: always leave yourself a way out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, what was attacking this time was the Black Black Tide, one of the peak-level factions in the Monster World in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if it was only a small branch, it was still connected to the main node where the Black Black Tide Monarch resided; who could know whether the Monarch would descend in the next second?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the sake of caution, retreating was the most correct choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his eyes, victory was not judged by the gains and losses of a single battle, but by ensuring he always remained on the chessboard of the next era.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Calamity War, the Black Black Tide World-Extinguishing War, the rise of new factions (Counter Black Tide, Rage Suppression, etc.)... eras advanced steadily, until the arrival of the current era: \"Myriad Races Crossing to the Peak.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not falling behind is victory; staying alive is hope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Currently, the system of the Bliss Legion was not yet completely established; it was not yet time for him to step onto the stage of the Monster World.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for how to retreat quickly, he was an expert in this regard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bliss Branch Halls were often swept clean by foreign races; he had spent several years researching in depth how to close shop quickly with minimal loss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a clear idea, in the time it took for a thought to turn, the Bliss Legion on the Winter Snowfield began to dissipate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bodies of the Bliss Evil Spirits still charging forward disintegrated like sand grains; purple energy streams overflowed from within them, condensing in the air into fine threads that flowed back toward the High Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The carapaces of the Bliss Insects peeled off one by one, revealing surging purple light streams inside; they silently prostrated themselves on the ground, allowing their bodies to transform into pure energy and return to the Mother Nest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Purple Black Tide High Tower also collapsed at this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spire piercing the clouds dissolved layer by layer like melting ice crystals; the runes flowing along the tower body extinguished one after another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The energy pipelines coiled at the tower base writhed and contracted like living creatures, extracting the last trace of energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The purple mental conduction light screen that had originally shrouded the entire battlefield also rapidly contracted inward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Mother Nest of the Bliss Insects emitted a low hum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The huge fleshy structure rapidly dehydrated and shriveled; the nutrient fluid in the hatching pools flowed backward into the Bliss Main Hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unhatched insect eggs burst one after another; the released energy was decomposed into the most basic units of Bliss Energy, retracting all vitality like a receding Black Tide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire process was highly efficient; the Bliss Legion bid farewell to the Winter Snowfield in a short time, as if it had never existed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, under the dumbfounded gaze of the Earth Nian Evil Spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The purple-skinned demonic living beings, whose combat power was clearly stronger than the Demon Seeds, also vanished from his perception field immediately afterward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earth Nian: ...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fighting spirit that had risen in his heart had not yet dissipated; suddenly, he felt a sense of suffocation as if he had punched thin air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Earth Nian, this is the presence of the Black Black Tide; just ask if it's impressive or not,\" Xie Yan's voice rang out in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Impressive your big eye,\" Earth Nian turned his head and glared viciously at Xie Yan, continuing:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't use player quotes; how many times have I told you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood,\" Xie Yan nodded solemnly, adopting an attitude of humble acceptance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turning his gaze back to the Winter Snowfield battlefield, the depression in the Earth Nian Evil Spirit's heart deepened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had expected a hearty and satisfying battle, yet he never expected the opponent to flee without fighting, leaving the borrowed Black Black Tide energy with no place to be used.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the advance of the Black Black Tide continued, pressing down upon the battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the remaining Player Race members, he naturally would not let them go; he must slaughter them all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Similar to the mood of the Earth Nian Bully, the Lord of Bliss, who was currently retreating from the site, was also feeling depressed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he had chosen to flee, he still lost quite a bit in the recovery and conversion of resources, which made his heart ache.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, the Winter Snowfield region was likely no longer habitable; next, he would need to change to a new scene to settle down and continue the construction of the unfinished legion system.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as both the Earth Nian Evil Spirit and the Lord of Bliss were feeling depressed about this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A new post appeared on the Player Forum, its popularity soaring rapidly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Wait, where did the Novice Village go? I just logged in and I'm completely confused; I only went offline to swap out my nutrient solution, but upon logging back in, the scenery felt off. I almost thought I'd transmigrated to the neighboring Emperor Tomb Mountain Range. Why has the Black Black Tide Legion come visiting our home? And... where is my Rookie Training Base? What happened to the Blissful Evil Spirits and the Blissful Insect Tides?]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I had some matters to attend to these past two days; today's update is 5,300 words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, please vote for monthly tickets~ More explosive updates will follow~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",3861,"2026-06-19T09:20:37.851Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","e9515a67d55161671f472e96d3573caa8cb1ef905bf6ca3a9e057615f7e35436","monsters-are-coming-chapter-309","monsters-are-coming-chapter-307",393,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmonsters-are-coming-cover.jpg"]
