Chapter 931: That Back!

And this number seemed to be increasing continuously!

Within the No Return Realm, it seemed as if there were endless Transcendents who could step out at any time.

This was where the living beings of the heavens and myriad realms truly felt despair!

Eight against twelve, the absolute disadvantage in numbers caused the battle situation to tilt toward the ominous faction from the very beginning.

If it weren't for the fact that the eight Transcendents of the heavens and myriad realms were all battle-hardened, had incomparably rich combat experience, and each had their own peerless skills, the defense line would probably have collapsed completely long ago.

The battle continued... entering a white-hot stage...

This battle lasted for more than two hundred years.

In those two hundred-plus years, the No Return Space-Time Sea had never had a moment of peace.

The battle of the Transcendents went from one end of the No Return Space-Time Sea to the other, and then back again.

The already chaotic space-time sea was beaten to be increasingly fragmented.

Countless space-time nodes collapsed, and countless broken worlds were annihilated.

The slaughter on the ground battlefield was even more tragic to the extreme.

Batch after batch of cultivators rushed to the front line, and then batch after batch died in battle.

Corpses piled up like mountains, and blood gathered into rivers, dyeing the gray No Return Space-Time Sea a glaring dark red.

Experts at the Quasi-Transcendent level fell one after another like leeks.

The Painting Master died in battle!

The Alchemy Heavenly Emperor died in battle!

The Dust Emperor was seriously injured and was saved by Ning Wujiu at the cost of his life, but his origin was also greatly damaged, and he had no more combat power.

Ye Zhetian, Ye Beichen, the Mystic Heavenly Emperor, the God-Demon Immortal Venerable, and others came out of seclusion one after another to participate in the battle, all fighting in blood; although they seriously injured many of the enemy's Quasi-Transcendents, they were all seriously injured and could only retreat to the second line to heal.

The Northern Dipper Seven Stars broke through at the most critical moment; the seven people formed the Northern Dipper Seven Stars grand array and forcibly dragged two ominous Transcendents for hundreds of rounds, winning precious breathing time for the defense line.

But the seven people also had their origins seriously damaged because of this; Xiaosa Ge lost an arm, Ren Pingsheng's sword shattered his heart pulse, Huang Xie's Nirvana power was almost exhausted, and all of them were seriously injured and dying, and were saved to the rear by the Mysterious Being at the cost of his life.

If it weren't for the eight Transcendents fighting to the death to block, the entire defense line would have already been wiped out.

But even so, the situation was constantly deteriorating.

Two hundred-plus years later, three lines of defense in the No Return Space-Time Sea had already completely collapsed.

The living beings on the side of the heavens and myriad realms suffered heavy losses, with less than one in ten survivors.

Even those few remaining Transcendents—the Chaos Dragon Lord, Ning Wujiu, the Supreme Sword Emperor, the Galaxy Blade Ancestor, the Heaven-Swallowing Bull Lord, the Dung Sea Mad Maggot Emperor, the Supreme Horse Emperor, and the White Tiger Empress—were all stained with blood, each with varying degrees of injuries.

The Chaos Dragon Lord's dragon robe was shattered, and there was a claw mark on his chest deep enough to see the bone, with black ominous power constantly corroding the wound, which could only be forcibly suppressed with dragon qi.

Ning Wujiu's plain white robe was stained with blood, and his left arm hung unnaturally, obviously with broken bones.

The Supreme Sword Emperor's long sword was covered with cracks, and golden blood constantly overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

The White Tiger Empress's battle armor was mostly shattered, her hair messy, and her cold face also carried a bit of fatigue.

The situation was tilting infinitely toward the ominous clan...

Everyone knew clearly that if it continued like this, defeat and death were only a matter of time.

At most, in another hundred years, the ominous army would be able to completely flatten the No Return Space-Time Sea, kill their way into the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and drag the heavens and myriad realms completely into the dark abyss.

The emotion of despair shrouded the hearts of every living being like dark clouds.

Many people had already prepared to fight to the death.

Even if they died, they had to bite a piece of meat off the enemy.

However, just when it was more than four hundred and fifty years since the Great Tribulation began.

A sudden change occurred!

The ominous legion, which had originally been attacking like a rainbow and winning victory after victory, suddenly stopped its offensive.

"Woo—woo—woo—"

A desolate horn sound rang out from the ominous army's camp, carrying the order to retreat.

The ominous soldiers who had been rushing at the front retreated like a tide.

The twelve ominous Transcendents who were fighting fiercely in the high sky also stopped at the same time and withdrew.

"Hmm?"

The Chaos Dragon Lord and the others were all stunned, their hands holding their weapons not relaxing but becoming even more vigilant.

They couldn't figure out what medicine the ominous clan was selling in this gourd.

They clearly occupied an absolute upper hand, clearly they could completely crush them by going one step further, so why stop suddenly?

Was it a conspiracy? Or a trap?

No one knew.

They only saw those twelve ominous Transcendents floating in mid-air, looking toward the void further ahead with solemn expressions, as if there were some existence there that made them incomparably dread.

A moment later, they actually retreated a step in unison.

Afterward, the ominous army began to retreat backward in an orderly manner.

Soldiers at the front, commanders in the middle, and twelve Transcendents at the rear, orderly and not chaotic at all.

In just half a day, the originally overwhelming ominous army had retreated to an endless area.

Returning to the vicinity of the entrance to the No Return Realm.

Those dozen or so Transcendents also temporarily retreated back into the No Return Realm.

This sudden wave of retreat surprised the living beings of the heavens and myriad realms, but it made them let out a big sigh of relief.

The nerves that had been tense for more than two hundred years could finally relax for a moment.

Countless people collapsed to the ground, panting heavily, the joy of surviving the disaster filling their chests.

Many people even couldn't help but weep with joy.

They had survived.

They had held on.

However, no one dared to take it lightly.

No one knew what had happened.

But all the living beings did not relax their vigilance.

Because no one knew what medicine the No Return Realm was selling in its gourd, or what kind of conspiracy there would be.

No one knew if the ominous clan was brewing the next, even more terrifying offensive.

Under the brief calm, there were even more surging undercurrents.

"Everyone, follow me to investigate."

The Chaos Dragon Lord wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said in a deep voice.

When things are abnormal, there must be demons.

The ominous clan could not have retreated for no reason.

They had to figure out what exactly had happened.

Ning Wujiu, the Supreme Sword Emperor, and the others nodded one after another.

The eight Transcendents flew forward cautiously, crossing the broken defense line and approaching the direction of the entrance to the No Return Realm.

They wanted to investigate here to see what exactly had happened that made the ominous Transcendents who occupied an absolute upper hand choose to retreat temporarily.

Soon, they arrived at the old site of the first line of defense.

At this moment, this place had long been destroyed beyond recognition by the flames of war.

But when they raised their heads and looked at the very front of the defense line leading to the No Return Realm.

Instantly, all of their expressions stalled suddenly!

Shocked to the point of being dumbfounded!

The next moment, deep awe, admiration, emotion, yearning, and other complex expressions surged onto everyone's faces.

They saw a... back!

Yes, that's right, it was just a back!

A back in white clothes that was peerless in elegance, covered the universe, infinitely mysterious, infinitely transcendent, infinitely unpredictable, infinitely towering...!

That figure stood quietly on the first line of defense of the No Return Space-Time Sea.

White clothes whiter than snow, figure straight as a pine, as if integrated with the entire heaven and earth.

He stood there, clearly not tall, but as if standing at the very peak, the highest point of the entire heavens and myriad realms!

Overlooking the myriad ages of space-time, in charge of the reincarnation of all living beings.

An unspeakable transcendent aura emanated from him.

Not ostentatious, not domineering, but making people involuntarily feel awe, unable to help but want to prostrate and worship.

In front of that white-clothed back were the endless ominous legions.

Dense Immortal Kings, Dao Realm existences, Supreme Realm big shots, layered one upon another, with no end in sight.

Further away, the high-level existences of the Ultimate Leap and Quasi-Transcendent levels stood solemnly, their auras condensed.

And those dozen or so Transcendents were also among them!

However, this endless ominous legion did not dare to approach that white-clothed figure at all!

Did not dare to have any action of crossing the thunder pool!

It was as if there was an invisible heavenly moat in front of that white-clothed figure; crossing one step meant death.

Even those dozen or so Transcendents had extremely solemn expressions, standing at the very front of the army, as if facing a great enemy.

In the depths of their eyes, shock, anger, incredulity, shock... and even fear were flashing wildly!

At this moment, their bodies were even trembling slightly, and they were still constantly retreating!

As if being too close to that white-clothed figure was a great fear and danger!

Just a single back had forcibly blocked the endless ominous army and forced back a dozen ominous Transcendents!

What kind of world-dominating power was this!

What kind of peerless elegance was this? ===== CHAPTER 932 =====
