Chapter 773 Shocking Changes
The Leader of the Saber-drawing Sect was still overseeing the city defense on the top of the city fortress. She methodically gave a series of orders. After some repairs were done, Tianyuan City began to run like a gigantic, precise and efficient machine.
The Demon Clan’s formation set up outside the city by their absolute experts had been breached. The space gate in Tianyuan City was functioning again, but some parts needed to be repaired, so Ding Hao and Tianshu had to wait.
Standing on top of the city fortress, Ding Hao turned his head and suddenly found the Leader of the Saber-drawing Sect breathing weakly. Silver hair appeared on her temples, and her whole person began to age rapidly.
After being stunned for a moment, Ding Hao began to understand.
“You two are in such a hurry to leave. Do you have some urgent business to see to?” After sorting out the city defense, the Leader of the Saber-drawing Sect walked to them with a smile.
She had gradually changed from a young and beautiful woman to a woman in her 30s. The power of her secret method was slowly fading. In three days at most, she would revert to that old woman with gray hair and wrinkles again. She would have reached the end of her lifespan.
Ding Hao could sense the kindness of this Human Clan master at the Sage Realm. He did not hide anything from her and told her in detail what he had experienced and his worries.
“So you two have just come out of the Sacred Hall ruins…” The Leader of the Saber-drawing Sect was a little shocked. “About a year and a half ago, rumors were rife about these ruins, arousing the interest of countless masters. I also visited the Bone-burying Forest with the intention of exploring it. Unfortunately, by the time we came just outside the ruins, we found some invisible destructive force enveloping the Sea of Opulent Buildings. It was all rubble inside…”
The Leader of the Saber-drawing Sect told him in detail what happened after that.
Isolated by that destructive force, none of the experts who went later to the Bone-burying Forest could enter the Sacred Hall ruins. Some experts left in disappointment, while others waited outside the ruins, hoping for a chance to get in. But they could not…
About a year later, even those waiting outside with evil intentions to ambush the adventurers coming out of the ruins had lost their patience and left the Bone-burying Forest.
Many speculated that the ruins of this so-called Sacred Hall might be no more than the remnants of an ancient killing formation. Once they entered it, they would die. The experts of the two clans who entered it were probably all dead.
Gradually, people began to ignore the Sacred Hall ruins.
Because at almost the same time, a great event shocked the entire Land of the Divine—
The supreme sacred land of the Central Region, Over Sky Cliff, had suddenly experienced a strange phenomenon. Countless streaks of Divine Punishment Lightning suddenly descended from the sky and enveloped the entire cliff. It lasted for over three months. Numerous people had witnessed this phenomenon.
Over Sky Cliff was where the Central Region Supreme God of War lived. It was also the headquarters of the Super Divine Hall. They had numerous masters and had existed on the Divine Central Continent for tens of thousands of years. Even the supreme beings of the Demon Clan did not dare profane this place.
Among the Five Human Supremes in the Land of Infinity, the Central Region Supreme God of War was the most mysterious and esteemed. He was known as the strongest human warrior on the continent. Even the God of War of Mysterious Frost in the Northern Region was inferior to him.
For innumerable years, Over Sky Cliff was the sacred land of the entire Human Clan.
This sudden phenomenon of Divine Punishment Lightning affected every sect.
All kinds of rumors began to spread.
Some thought that the Supreme God of War was trying to break into the Immortal Realm. After tens of thousands of years of cultivation, this man—the most powerful in Human Clan history—had finally reached the peak of the God Realm and was trying to break into the next, which no one had done before in the history of the Human Clan.
All the humans rejoiced when they heard this rumor.
Once the Supreme God of War entered the Immortal Realm, it would undoubtedly be a major event that could change the history of the continent. With a Martial Immortal in charge, the Human Clan would immediately overturn their inferior position and become the new overlord of the continent.
It had also undoubtedly shocked the Demon Clan.
During the phenomenon of the Divine Punishment Lightning, someone saw for the first time demons appearing near Over Sky Cliff. The supreme beings of the Demon Clan at the God Realm could no longer sit still. A few went to investigate what was happening.
Rumors slowly began to spread that the other four Supreme Human War Gods―the God of War of Mysterious Frost from the Northern Region and his three counterparts―had also appeared at Over Sky Cliff. They were protecting the Supreme God of War while he cultivated.
During the whole phenomenon of Divine Punishment Lightning, Over Sky Cliff had become a forbidden area to living beings. Even the Super Divine Guards had to leave the place.
There were masters at the Sage Realm who were watching from afar. They discovered surging Chaotic Aura in the sky above Over Sky Cliff. The void had shattered, and the power of the rules had subsided. It was like a battle between the Gods and the Devils. The terrifying aura and fluctuations seemed to cover a radius of many million miles.
Later, even ordinary creatures who did not know martial arts could sense the power fluctuations from Over Sky Cliff, and shivered in fear.
Some speculated that something terrible must have happened.
The battle between the God Realm masters from both clans would directly determine the fate of the clans. A serious injury or the death of a God Realm master would spell disaster for their respective clan.
All beings were affected by this change at Over Sky Cliff.
The tension between the Demon Clan and the Human Clan suddenly mounted.
Weeks went by. After about three months, this strange phenomenon at Over Sky Cliff finally disappeared. The Divine Punishment Lightning vanished with its terrifying energy fluctuations. However, the Chaotic Aura above Over Sky Cliff was still looming everywhere. A gaping hole had been torn in the void, which did not dissipate for a long time.
No one knew how fierce a battle had taken place there. Not even the laws of the void were able to repair that spatial gap.
No one knew what had really happened, or what the final outcome was.
Even a Martial Sage expert could not get close to the cliff, now shrouded in primal chaotic force. One of the Great Saints of the Demon Clan went too far in. Before he could get within a hundred miles of the cliff, horrific primal chaotic waves had burned him into ashes.
The entire continent was wondering whether the Supreme God of War had reached the Immortal Realm. Did any of the God Realm masters of the Demon Clan and the Human Clan die?
Unfortunately, at this moment, no one knew the answer.
Because neither the Human War Gods, nor the Demon Gods, showed up after the battle. There was also nothing said about the battle.
As time went by, some pieces of news finally leaked out—
The Supreme God of War had failed to break into the Immortal Realm!
He had been seriously injured and had disappeared!
The Human Clan’s God Realm masters were also defeated in the battle at Over Sky Cliff!
It was hard to know whether the news was true or not. Like bombshells, those pieces of news made the situation in the Land of Infinity quite strange.
Everyone put forward his own guess.
And Super Divine Hall maintained unfathomable silence.
A peak Demon Saint of the Demon Clan said that the Supreme God of War’s divine mark could no longer be detected there. The power marks of the other Human War Gods were also extremely weak.
A master at the God Realm could merge with the power of the rules of a place. After entering the God Realm, his power would leave a mark there. This was the terrifying power of a master at the God Realm. His body was in complete harmony with the laws of heaven and earth, so it was possible for him to change nature. With a single thought, he could seize the stars and the moon; with another, he could make flowers bloom. Another thought would bring about spring, yet another could overturn the rivers and the seas.
When confronted by experts below the God Realm, they could crush them in an instant.
The disappearance of their power marks in this realm would mean that they had died.
The Great Saint of the Demon Clan said this to convince them that their Supreme God of War had died under Divine Punishment. The other Human War Gods, he claimed, were also seriously injured.
His deduction caused an uproar across the entire continent.
Many human experts did not believe him at all, but they could not find any evidence to refute him. The human experts at the peak Martial Sage Realm who could sense the power marks kept silent, which proved indirectly that the Great Demon Saint was right.
It was a devastating blow to the Human Clan.
The various forces of the Demon Clan, already ready to take action, finally began to test the waters. In one night, they attacked several dozen major human cities on the Divine Central Continent and razed them to the ground. Tens of millions of humans were killed.
Although the Human Clan launched a powerful counterattack, there was no master at the God Realm helping them.
As a result, the Holy War finally broke out.
The fearless army of the Demon Clan, controlled by certain demon forces, carried out a series of crazy massacres while invading the Divine Central Continent. Many human cities were destroyed.
…
“So far, several dozen provinces and nearly a thousand major cities have been razed to the ground in the war. Tens of thousands of major and minor sects on the Divine Central Continent have been destroyed, including large sects of extraordinary strength, such as Orchid Valley and the Sky-reaching Sect. Although the Super Divine Guards struck back, they did not achieve much…”
After she said this, the Leader of the Saber-drawing Sect sighed.
Ding Hao and Tianshu exchanged glances with a shocked expression on their faces. They did not expect such a shocking turn of events in the past few years. It meant absolute disaster for the Human Clan.
“So no one knows where the Supreme God of War is. Has anyone gone to Over Sky Cliff to investigate?” Ding Hao asked.
“Yes, no one knows where he is now.” The Leader of the Saber-drawing Sect sighed. “The Supreme God of War is missing, and the Super Divine Hall can no longer deter the demon forces. The Demon Clan is wantonly killing us. If things go on like this, it won’t be long before the entire Human Clan on the Divine Central Continent is all wiped out.”
“The situation isn’t that bad. At the very least, the Supreme God of War might still be alive. Maybe he’d turn up again some day and rule the continent. After all, he has protected the Human Clan for tens of thousands of years as a God Realm being. How can such a man die so easily?” Uncle Tianshu said, clenching his fists.
“It would be great if the Supreme God of War could show up again. Without him around, many experts of the Human Clan would have to die. I’m more worried about the Human War Gods from the Northern Region, the Western Desert, the Southern Wilderness, and the Eastern Frontier. If they are indeed seriously injured, not only will the Central Region be in turmoil, but also the entire Land of Infinity will fall into chaos and darkness!”
