Chapter 675: Blood Flowing Like a River

"No—!!!"

A disciple screamed in despair:

"Ancestor! Elder!"

But—

No one could answer him.

The next moment—

He too was devoured by Bane Creatures!

……

In a brief quarter‑hour—

Xuantian Sect, annihilated!

The disciples, all dead!

The Elders, all dead!

The Sect Leader, dead!

The Ancestor, all dead!

The underlying existence, all gone!

Corpses strewn across the fields!

All around, wounds and scars!

Fresh blood dyed the entire sect crimson!

Those Bane Creatures, after destroying Xuantian Sect—

Did not linger at all!

They kept killing toward the next sect!

……

"What the hell is this!"

A survivor screamed, their voice full of fear and bewilderment:

"Is the world ending?!"

"Wasn't the recent Other Shore War already over?!"

"Why are there still calamities?!"

"What on earth is this?!"

An ancient being let out a desperate sigh, its voice hoarse and aged:

"This is ominous!"

"It is Bane Creatures!"

"It is the true Dark Source of Zhutian Wanjie!"

Another ancient Entity, likewise with a face of despair:

"Other Shore World..."

"It seems to be just one of countless branches of the Ominous Faction..."

"Now this is the real Ultimate Darkness..."

Before the words finished—

Several Bane Creatures had already set their sights on them!

……

The sect's Ancestor was besieged by multiple Bane Creatures!

His body was already covered with wounds, blood gushing!

His breath had withered to the extreme!

He knew—

He could no longer live.

But there was no fear in his eyes.

Only—

Determination and sorrow!

"Aaaah!"

He let out a profoundly sorrowful and desperate howl:

"I... will fight you lot of scum!"

Before the words ended—

He suddenly activated his trump card!

Burn Primordial!

His body instantly turned into a blazing fire!

The flames illuminated the entire night sky!

The flames contained the Ancestor's final dignity and glory!

He gave his all, delivering the final strike!

"Boom—!!!"

A terrifying blow erupted!

A brilliant pillar of light shot up into the heavens!

In an instant, the three Bane Creatures before him were taken away!

However—

He has already run out of oil and the lamp has gone out!

His body begins to disintegrate!

His soul begins to dissipate!

Then—

More Bane Creatures then overwhelm him!

……

"No… Ancestor… Elder…"

The sect's beings let out a desperate, sorrowful cry:

"It's over… completely over…"

"Lying Sun Sect… is about to be annihilated…"

A terrifying being tries to flee!

However—

There's no way to escape!

All around, they are surrounded by Bane Creatures!

They can only—

Desperately await death!

……

Such a scene—

It unfolds across countless places in Nine Heavens Ten Earths and even Zhutian Wanjie!

In the Red Flame Star Domain, a sect guarded by three King Immortals is besieged by the Ominous Army for three days and three nights, after which all its members fall in battle!

The Sect Leader of that sect, moments before death, detonated the entire sect, taking away tens of thousands of Bane Creatures!

On Mystic Ice Continent, an ancient dynasty that lasted millions of years was reduced to ash in a single night!

The emperor of that dynasty, an Immortal King‑level being, was besieged by five Bane Creatures of the same realm, and ultimately perished from exhaustion!

In Heavenly Wind Sea Region, countless mortal kingdoms on the islands had not even the right to resist, and were completely devoured by endless Darkness!

Those mortals never learned what happened before death; they only saw countless snarling rifts appear in the sky, followed by endless Darkness…

All kinds of sects, races, families, and forces—

All are suffering unprecedented terrifying calamities…

Even those sects and families with some strength are like this.

Those minor forces at the very bottom, even the mortal Star Domain—

Are even more like dust, vanishing instantly!

……

Every instant—

Countless great stars are extinguished…

Endless beings bleed profusely…

Endless forces turn into complete ash…

Screams of agony!

Laments!

Roars!

Howls of sorrow!

The reverberations of terrifying combat!

The explosion of Divine Weapons!

The booming clash of techniques!

……

Unending to the ears!

All of Nine Heavens Ten Earths is shrouded in blood and fire!

Fresh blood gathers into rivers, flowing across the starry sky!

Corpses pile into mountains, floating in the Void!

That horrific scene is like an Asura Hell!

……

Don't even mention forces with Immortal champions stationed—

Even those great forces with Immortal King‑level beings stationed—

Also suffer the terrifying onslaught of Bane Creatures!

Countless strong ones fight in a blood‑soaked battle!

Countless warriors bravely march to their deaths!

But—

There are too many Bane Creatures!

They simply cannot be all slain!

Those Bane Creatures seem endless; after one wave is killed, another wave arrives!

Moreover—

Their vitality is extremely tenacious!

Even if severely wounded, they can recover quickly!

Even if a limb is severed, they can be reborn in an instant!

Even if their bodies are shattered, they can reconstitute!

Simply—

Undying Immortal!

…

Only those supreme forces that overlook the succession of Epochs and gaze upon the Eternal Time and Space—

At this moment they can barely remain calm.

For example, Ye Clan.

For example, Great Thousand Divine Universe.

For example, Ancient Sword Tomb.

For example, Blade Ancestor Dao Court.

For example, Ten Great Emperor Fiend Clans.

…

However—

They still have an intangible sense of tense crisis spreading…

Because they all know—

It has only just begun now.

No one knows how this calamity will evolve later…

Those true Doom Ancestors, even the Extinction Sequence—

Yet none have been deployed…

Now these are merely the vanguard of the vanguard!

…

Boundless Heaven.

Likewise, there are endless terrifying Bane Creatures invading.

The region where Ye Clan resides.

Likewise, Bane Creatures rushed in madly.

However—

But they were slain by Ye Clan's strong ones.

Ye Clan's foundation is naturally extraordinary, standing on the Zhutian Absolute Peak.

Those scattered Bane Creatures that surged into Ye Clan's territory barely caused any disturbance.

Ye Clan's Great Array Protecting the Clan was painstakingly arranged by generations of sages, its radiance enveloping the whole clan; any Bane Creature that approaches is incinerated to ash by that light.

Ye Clan members, having fought countless battles, face Bane Creatures without fear!

An Immortal Realm Ye Clan elder slashed three swords to kill a Bane Creature of the same realm!

A Dao Realm Elder, after a fierce battle, brazenly slashed a Bane Creature of the Dao Realm!

A Supreme Realm Elder, fighting one against ten thousand, slaughtered Bane Creatures with corpses strewn across the field!

Ye Clan—

Steady as Mount Tai!

…

At this moment—

Ye Clan Great Hall.

The atmosphere is tense and stagnant.

They are discussing major matters.

To cope with this terrifying great calamity.

…

"This great calamity… has finally arrived at last…"

An elder sighed, his voice full of emotion and helplessness:

"I originally thought we would have at least tens of thousands of years, or even a few thousand years…"

"Who could have known, it's only been a few dozen years… and we're already at this point…"

Another elder nodded, his weathered face full of worry:

"Indeed, too fast… so fast it catches people off guard…"

"Our Ye Clan, though deeply rooted, lacks the Three Great Ancestors, and thus is missing a backbone…"

In the Great Hall, Clan Leader Ye Jinghong and a host of Elders, Great Ancestor, Mystic Ancestor, Heavenly Ancestor and other foundations were present.

Ye Jinghong sat at the foremost seat on the left, his expression solemn and silent.

The Heavenly Ancestor and other Elders also wore solemn faces.

The one at the head, naturally, was the Guardian—

Ye Di.
