Chapter 238: Desperate Nuwa! The Choices of the Various Powerhouses of the Great Desolation!
"Boom!"
The two forces met in the air, instantly erupting with a heaven-shaking and earth-shattering collision sound that resounded throughout the heavens and earth.
The Demon Race's attack was blocked by the Human Race's Great Array; although the Human Race's Great Array also suffered a significant impact, it did not collapse.
This scene left the high-level members of the Demon Race feeling shocked.
They had never imagined that the Human Race could actually rely on a single Great Array to withstand their full-force strike. One must know that they had several more peak Great Luo experts on their side, and even several Quasi-Saint powerhouses!
Di Jun and Taiyi's expressions were gloomy; they realized that the Human Race was indeed different from before and not as weak and easy to bully as they had previously imagined.
"It seems we truly underestimated the Human Race this time," Di Jun said coldly. "However, this is just as well! Today, we shall make this Primordial World remember once and for all who is the master between these heavens and earth!"
He suddenly unleashed the River Chart and Luo Book.
"Activate the Hunyuan Heluo Array!"
As Di Jun's voice fell, the Demon Race army immediately responded and began to set up another Great Array.
Once the Hunyuan Heluo Array was activated, it directly surrounded the Human Race who were currently driving the Zhou Tian Star Formation.
Afterward, the Demon Race army launched an even more violent attack.
The Human Race powerhouses, led by the Three Ancestors of the Human Race, also changed their state, holding their ground and engaging in a fierce confrontation with the Demon Race.
Within the Chaos.
"Di Jun! Taiyi!"
Nuwa watched the crazy offensive launched by the Demon Race against the Human Race, and for a moment, she was gnashing her teeth.
Past events had already left Nuwa feeling very disappointed in the Demon Race, and she had quickly distanced herself, but she still held onto a bit of their former bond.
Yet, seeing the Demon Race treat the Human Race so ruthlessly now, she was completely desperate.
These Di Jun and Taiyi really intended to completely exterminate the Human Race she had created, without giving her any face at all! She wanted to go and save the Human Race immediately, but just as she was about to take action, she suddenly sensed Hongjun's sharp gaze.
Nuwa's heart skipped a beat; she knew that if she acted rashly now, it would inevitably provoke Hongjun's dissatisfaction and might even lead him to strike at her directly. Although she was anxious, she had to forcibly suppress her impulses and continue to remain entangled with Houtu.
If she wanted to break free from Hongjun's control, it was not impossible; she could simply abandon her Heavenly Dao Saint position.
But if she truly abandoned her Heavenly Dao Saint position, she would only be a Quasi-Saint, and even if she could rush to the Great Desolation, she likely wouldn't be able to stop Di Jun and the others from exterminating the Human Race!
Furthermore, even if she abandoned her Heavenly Dao Saint position, Hongjun might not necessarily let her go to the Great Desolation!
Nuwa was constrained by Hongjun and could not go to rescue the Human Race in person, but Fuxi, who had been watching the battle, was not under any such constraints and turned directly to head toward the Great Desolation.
Seeing this scene, Nuwa felt slightly relieved. Afterward, she suddenly had a plan.
Her gaze turned toward Zhenyuanzi, Minghe, the Queen Mother of the West, and others who were watching the battle from afar in the Chaos; these people had all previously promised to join the Human Race alliance and attack the Demon Race together with the Human Race!
Nuwa knew that if she ordered them to act directly now, it would undoubtedly push them into opposition against Hongjun, which was not something she wished to see. Thus, she sent a voice transmission to Zhenyuanzi and the others, saying only: "The war between the Human Race and the Demon Race has begun on the Primordial Land. If you have the heart, you may go and assist on your own. It concerns the survival of Humanity and also relates to the opportunity for you to prove the Dao; consider it for yourselves."
Upon hearing this, Zhenyuanzi and the others understood Nuwa's intention, but they also felt conflicted.
The pressure from Hongjun Daozu was omnipresent; if they acted without authorization, there was no guarantee they wouldn't be detected by the Heavenly Dao. If they were targeted by Hongjun in the future, they did not have the confidence that Lu Yun had to withstand it!
However, the war between the Human Race and the Demon Race concerned the general trend of the Great Desolation, and even more so the opportunity to prove the Dao that Lu Yun had promised them, so they were truly unwilling to give it up.
Just as everyone was hesitating, Zhulong, that ancient Quasi-Saint, suddenly made a shocking move.
He moved, transforming into a streak of light, and headed straight for the Primordial Land.
This move by Zhulong undoubtedly broke the stalemate in the Chaos and also left Zhenyuanzi, Minghe, the Queen Mother of the West, and the others feeling shocked.
If they remembered correctly, this Zhulong didn't seem to have formed an alliance with Lu Yun before, right?
But everyone soon understood that Zhulong had discovered an opportunity himself and wanted to seize it!
As an ancient god, Zhulong's strength was unfathomable. The reason he joined the battle was naturally not out of sympathy for the Human Race, but because he believed this battle was beneficial for his Dragon Clan to break the current situation! In any case, the Dragon Clan was already spurned by the Heavenly Dao; even if he failed this time, it wouldn't make the situation any worse. Conversely, if he succeeded, the status of the Dragon Clan would be different in the future, and he himself might even obtain a position as a Saint of Humanity! Thinking of this, Minghe, Zhenyuanzi, and the Queen Mother of the West could no longer sit still.
Zhenyuanzi already had a deep blood feud with the Demon Race high-level members due to his old friend Hongyun; at this moment, following closely behind Zhulong, he directly activated the Earth Book to tear through the Chaos and headed toward the Primordial Land!
Seeing this, the Queen Mother of the West, Minghe, and the others no longer hesitated.
They knew that if they didn't act now, it would likely be too late. If they missed the chance to become a Saint because of this, they would definitely regret it for the rest of their lives!
Watching Minghe and the others leave, Kunpeng naturally knew what these people were thinking.
He weighed the pros and cons repeatedly, and finally, gritting his teeth, he unleashed the Kunpeng Extreme Speed and rushed toward the Primordial Land! He felt that if he took action this time, it might not be impossible to latch onto Lu Yun's thigh again, and the long-dreamed-of opportunity to become a Saint might just arrive!
At this point, even the other Quasi-Saints and Great Luo Golden Immortals who had nothing to do with Lu Yun could no longer sit still.
Thus, they transformed into streaks of light one after another, following closely behind and speeding toward the Primordial Land.
Detecting this situation, Nuwa was overjoyed.
As long as this group of powerhouses could arrive in time to assist the Human Race, no matter how powerful Di Jun and the others were, they would not be able to exterminate the Human Race!
This scene was seen by Hongjun in the distance, and his brows furrowed slightly.
Most of this group had listened to his lectures at Zixiao Palace in the past; that they now chose to stand on Lu Yun's side truly made him feel somewhat cold-hearted.
But as it concerned proving the Dao, he also understood these people's intentions.
However, he naturally could not let them enter the Great Desolation to ruin his plans so easily! Thus, Hongjun began to mobilize the power of the Primordial Heavenly Dao, directly interfering with the nearby chaotic matter to form various terrifying Chaos Storms, which swept toward Fuxi, Zhenyuanzi, and the others!
Fuxi, Zhulong, Zhenyuanzi, and the others all had their expressions change drastically, and they had to hurriedly activate their own Supernatural Powers and Spiritual Treasures to protect themselves.
With their strength, self-preservation within the Chaos Storm was not much of a problem. But wanting to continue to the Great Desolation to support the Human Race would be quite difficult!
