Chapter 1177: Live and Die with the Island!

Tsk! Tsk!

Hundreds of Demigods released their strongest attacks at once, seemingly splitting the spatial zone itself. That ferocious aura made Wu Ni, Jian Wuying, and company retreat hastily, with shock and fear in their eyes. Many Heaven Fate Ships nearby were also knocked backward by the shock wave originating from those attacks; the nearest Heaven Fate Ship had even been knocked backward tens of thousands of feet.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The colorful light above the Nine Dragons’ God-Extinguishing Array started to shine as the few crevices and cracks on it enlarged and started to widen. There was soon a huge hole in the middle of it. This black hole still continued to expand as the Nine Dragons’ God-Extinguishing Array was on the brink of being destroyed.

“Hmph!”

A snort rang out as the Nine Dragons’ God-Extinguishing Array started to light up brightly. The cracks that were spreading swiftly reformed and healed itself. It was obvious that the formidable martial artists in Sin Island have started to make their move as well. They were channeling their essence force into the Nine Dragons’ God-Extinguishing Array, trying to mend it.

“Continue with the attacks!”

Victory was just within grasp; the Battle Thearch and North Thearch were not going to watch as their effort became naught. As the Battle Thearch roared, all types of dao pattern attacks were persistently sent forth without hesitation. The Nine Dragons’ God-Extinguishing Array was glowing with such an incredible glare; it was impossible to distinguish which dao pattern was originating from who, what type of dao pattern was being utilized. All that could be heard was a thunderous explosive sound as everyone felt that earth-shattering horrific aura coming from the attacks.

At this moment—even if it was the Battle Thearch, he would have succumbed to such a wave of attacks!

“Lay the formation!”

Xing Mengwan’s voice rang out; since they had already started to break the formation, they weren’t going to give up halfway. The Plum Star Formation started to light up again as ten streaks of white light shot forth and became a huge white snake and shot into the formation once again. This white snake seemed to have a phenomenal amount of energy that could corrode the formation; wherever the white snake went, the formation disintegrated more and more. Combined with the incessant attacks originating from the Battle Thearch and company, the ferociousness of the attacks was amplified.

There was strength in numbers!

The strength and power of the Nine Dragons’ God-Extinguishing Array were not in doubt. Lei Banxian and company were also not to be underestimated; there were many formidable martial artists on Sin Island. However, they were facing an enemy that comprised not only a huge animal but also five hundred Demigods, among whom there were too many seven-, eight-, and nine-star formidable martial artists.

Previously whenever the Nine Thearch Clans combined forces to attack, their total combat power was nothing compared to the present. This time, a few Thearchs themselves had come to join in the battle while formidable martial artists from all the great family clans had gathered as well. Before this time, Lei Banxian and company would always rush out to engage the enemy in battle and by relying on the strength of the formation, their powers could be raised by one or two stars; this time, no one dared to venture out of the formation.

That was because not a single Demon Sovereign had been sent by Endless Deep Sea this time to assist. If Lei Banxian and company headed out of the formation, they would immediately be killed!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

After five minutes, the cracks on the formation started to increase as the black hole also grew bigger and bigger. Finally, as if a roof falling down, the entire formation disintegrated and exploded. The white fog surrounding it also dissipated. The mysterious Sin Island was like a young lady whose skirt had been lifted; it was utterly exposed to the East Imperial Continent’s alliance army’s line of sight.

“It’s all over…”

Lei Banxian looked as the Nine Dragons’ God-Extinguishing Array was broken into fragments and ultimately vanished into thin air, and he sighed deeply. At this moment—not only him, but also every martial artist on Sin Island’s hearts had all broken. This formation had served as a divine shield to all of them and had never been broken before, protecting Sin Island for a hundred thousand years. It had finally been broken through today, which also signified the annihilation of the Sin Island’s Thirteen Clans.

“Ao Lu is indeed the mastermind; he had not shown himself even at this moment!”

Situ Ao’s face was full of despair. Not only had reinforcements not arrived, but he had also sent his own son-in-law to his death. Situ Ao’s rage was expected. The Situ Clan had an ultimate ability known as the Void Transference that could help all the martial artists present to leave and flee. However, at this moment, Situ Ao did not even entertain the thought of escaping. He roared loudly and said, “We will live and die with the island. Kill!”

“Live and die with the island. Kill!”

Tens of millions of martial artists shouted in unison as they surged forth, all at once releasing their attacks. Lei Banxian and company were leading them as they locked on to the Nine Thearch Clans’ Demigod formidable martial artists. However, they did not attack the North Thearch or the Battle Thearch.

They knew that without the Nine Dragons’ God-Extinguishing Array, they were no match for the North Thearch or the Battle Thearch; they could only kill as many enemies as they could and bring as many enemies with them to their deaths.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

As tens of millions of people rose up into the air at once, that sight was extremely imposing. Their unanimous attacks were also ferocious and awe-striking. This scene seemed to blend into one at that moment; the sky also seemed to be on the verge of collapsing. The winds were assailing as the seawater bubbled while mountains and rocks collapsed; the bloody battle had begun!

Kill—

All the Thearchs and everyone else present had a burning look in their eyes; it was the opportunity for them to avenge their humiliation. No matter how the battle with the Endless Deep Sea might end up, they were determined to leave their mark on history today. They were going to exterminate the rebels and flatten Sin Island!

There were tens of millions of people on both sides; the remaining nine armies of the alliance forces had also surged forth. All the Heaven Fate Ships disappeared in mid-air as troops of martial artists wearing all types of battle armor shot forward. Almost one hundred million people clashed above Sin Sea, and the biggest battle among humans in the Stellarsky Domain begun.

However!

There was a stark difference in firepower. Although both sides had the same number of people, one side was all Heaven Monarch formidable martial artists while there were only a few million Heaven Monarchs on the other side; this was already the combined strength of all the clans on Sin Island.

The difference in the number of Demigods was also apparent. While there were more than five hundred among the alliance forces, Sin Island only had a few dozen. The strongest of them was Lei Banxian, who was only a seven-star martial artist. If the Nine Dragons’ God-Extinguishing Array was present, that might have helped matters and raised his strength to that of an eight- or nine-star martial artist; his Reverse Time Flow could then save many lives!

However, at this moment, Lei Banxian did not dare to go and fight the North Thearch or Battle Thearch to the death; they both possessed nine-star dao patterns. His Reverse Time Flow would not be effective against their nine-star dao pattern attacks at all.

Pong, pong, pong~

Explosive sounds were ringing from everywhere; martial artists were being killed at every moment with bodies exploding and bits and pieces of flesh flying about. The sky started to rain blood and flesh as cries of pain, rage, and sorrow rang out. This place was not far from Sky Thunder Island; lightning bolts were lighting up the sky in the distance. Those lightning bolts illuminated the sea here that had turned red with blood; it was a very unpleasant scene!

“Sigh!”

Xing Mengwan—who was surrounded by a horde of people—revealed a look of desolateness as if she couldn’t bear witnessing such a massacre. She turned and looked at the Heaven Nether Sect’s Demigods, waved her hand, and said softly, “We have done what needs to be done. Let’s go. We shall return to the Heaven Nether Sect; we do not have to bother with whatever that will happen next.”

“Go!”

The Heaven Nether Sect’s nine Demigods did not have any indication of wanting to attack as well. They all followed Xing Mengwan and flew towards the East Imperial Continent. They soon disappeared from view.

…

The great war was continuing bitterly as five thousand kilometers away to the east of Sky Thunder Island, two figures stood silently. One of them was a cold and savage-looking middle-aged man that wore black armor while the other was an elder with a prominent head of green hair.

If Situ Ao or Huang Fuqi saw the two, they would definitely be shocked beyond reason!

The two were Ao Lu and the Black Deity. What was strange was that even though the two were obviously standing in mid-air, not one ordinary citizen or martial artist beneath them on land could see the duo; it was as if they were transparent.

Ao Lu’s face was cold and expressionless, putting his hands behind his back as his cold eyes locked on to the Sin Sea. It was as if he could see the slaughter that was going on five thousand kilometers away. The Black Deity stood motionless on the spot and did not utter a word; he was even more cold and menacing than Ao Lu. The two did not move an inch and did not have any intention of lending a hand at all.

“Let’s go back to Mystic Martial City!”

After watching for six hours and seeing that the majority of men from Sin Island—together with more than half of their Demigod formidable martial artists—had perished, Ao Lu waved a hand indifferently. At this time, the Black Deity finally gave a look of being unable to endure what was happening; he did not say anything though. The two became beams of white light as they floated to the Endless Deep Sea. Even at this point, no one from Sin Island had noticed that the two had come.

The great battle was still continuing as the sun set in the west, and it turned half the sky red. It also made the now dark-red Sin Sea even redder with its rays.
