Chapter 178: Set Off for Battle, War Starts! 2
Supreme Sage Peng Zhen spoke at this point, “Patriarch, don’t tell me that our race doesn’t have any God-realm experts who have sealed themselves to this era?”
Supreme Sage Peng Kong shook his head and sighed, “Self-sealing requires a large amount of divine spirit source. It’s simply too costly for a God-realm expert to do so. Among all the ten thousand ancient races, other than the primordial sage race, divine silkworm race, battle sage ape race, and demon god race, the other ancient races don’t have a self-sealing God-realm expert.”
“Then, why don’t we ask the four great ancient imperial clans for help?” Supreme Sage Peng Zhen frowned and snorted.
Supreme Sage Peng Kong let out a long sigh and said, “That’s the only thing we can do now. Get someone to prepare a generous gift. I’ll personally visit the primordial sage race in a while!
The next day, all the disciples and elders of the Taiyi Holy Land gathered on the void divine platform. They were all full of fighting spirit as they shouted in unison, “Elder King! Elder King!”
Qin Chen appeared amidst the cheers of the crowd and roared, “Today, I vow to exterminate the roc imperial clan. Everyone, please follow me to battle! We will not return until we win this battle!”
When everyone heard this, they raised their heads and shouted, “We will not return until we win!!”
Qin Chen waved his hand and shouted, “Let’s go!”
The void in Western Heaven was torn apart, and many figures appeared.
The experts of the Taiyi Holy Land were all gathered. Under Qin Chen’s lead, they headed toward the Roc Forest in a grandiose manner, attracting the attention of many ancient races along the way.
“What is the human Elder King trying to do? Is he really going to exterminate the roc imperial clan? Isn’t he too arrogant?”
“Arrogant? Hmph, have you forgotten the battle a few months ago? The primordial sage race’s God died and they have gone into seclusion ever since. The fire in the East Sea mountain range has yet to be extinguished. Since the human race has a God-realm expert, they naturally have nothing to fear.”
“Don’t we have any other God-realm experts among the ten thousand ancient races? The ten thousand ancient races were once the rulers of this continent. Are we going to let the human race ride on our heads in the future?”
“The conditions for a God-realm expert to seal oneself are harsh. Unless it’s a life-and-death situation, who would revive a God-realm expert? Now that the human race’s God is invincible, the political situation of the Canglan Continent has changed. Our ten thousand ancient races no longer hold any authority.”
Countless experts of the ancient races shook their heads. All of them knew that the human race was no longer the human race of the past, and the Canglan Continent was no longer the same as it had been in the primordial era.
Outside the Roc Forest, Qin Chen brought a thousand people from the Taiyi Holy Land here. The terrifying power frightened the roc imperial clan, and they decisively activated the protective array to resist.
Qin Chen stood in the air, his eyes bright and full of spirit. He held the Desolate Divine Halberd and had the Sage-slaying Bow at his waist. Like a god of war, he shouted at the Roc Forest, “Peng Kong, come out and accept your death!”
His Sagely might surged forth and enveloped the Roc Forest.
Although Qin Chen was only a Sage King, he was a peak realm 9 Sage King. As such, his aura was comparable to a Supreme Sage, which made the members of the roc imperial clan tremble in fear.
“The power of the human Elder King is getting stronger and stronger! I believe it won’t be long before he breaks through to the Supreme Sage realm!”
“The human race has a God-realm expert and a monster like the Elder King. It’ll probably be very difficult for the ten thousand ancient races to compete with them!”
“Hmph, the human race might be strong, but what do we ten thousand ancient races have to fear? Don’t forget that we have an ancient Prince who will revive in this era. Besides, the ten thousand ancient races have always been stronger than the human race. It won’t be long before we can suppress the flames of their arrogance.”
“You’re right. As long as we’re given some time to recuperate, we’ll definitely be able to rule this continent again.”
The spectating ten thousand ancient races were all frowning, but when someone mentioned the ancient Prince, they regained their fighting spirit.
All of them believed that it wouldn’t be long before the ten thousand ancient races fully revived and once again became the rulers of the continent.
“Human Elder King, aren’t you being a little too arrogant by invading our ancestral land?” A cold voice was heard. Supreme Sage Peng Kong and Supreme Sage Zhen Kong walked out with five Sage Kings and more than ten Sages.
Qin Chen looked at Peng Kong and Peng Zhen coldly. All the things that had happened in the past came to his mind. His expression turned even cold as he said in a deep voice, “Peng Kong, I’ve said it before. The day I return from the Demon Emperor Tomb will be the day I exterminate your race. Today, the roc imperial clan will be exterminated!”
“Human Elder King, you are too arrogant. So what if you have returned from the Demon Emperor Tomb? You’re still far from qualified to exterminate the roc imperial clan!” Peng Kong coldly snorted with confidence.
Qin Chen frowned. As the saying goes, there must be something wrong when things seemed abnormal. Since Peng Kong was so confident, he must be prepared. There might be other experts lying in ambush in the Roc Forest.
“Elder King, the roc imperial clan is an ancient imperial clan. Can we really exterminate them with just us?” The big scorpion suddenly spoke. It was hesitant and lost all confidence when faced with two Supreme Sages, five Sage Kings, and more than ten Sages.
After the big scorpion and Qin Chen came out of the Demon Emperor Tomb, the latter brought the former back to the Taiyi Holy Land and even appointed the big scorpion as a supreme elder. Because the big scorpion knew Qin Chen’s real name, Qin Chen had specially instructed it to address him as Elder King in the future.
“Who said it’s just us?” Qin Chen said as a smile appeared on his face. Immediately after, a wave of Emperor’s might struck. Supreme Sage Qin Tian arrived with the Son of Heaven’s Sword. Behind him, there was a Sage King and a few Sages.
“Minister, I’m not late, am I?” Qin Tian laughed loudly.
Qin Chen cupped his hands and replied, “Many thanks for your help.”
Qin Tian looked at the big scorpion at the side and could not help but be shocked. He asked Qin Chen, “Minister, who is this fellow Daoist?”
“He’s my friend and a supreme elder of the Taiyi Holy Land,” Qin Chen replied.
Hearing Qin Chen’s words, Qin Tian could not help but be shocked. He did not expect that not only had Qin Chen returned safely from the Demon Emperor Tomb, but he even brought back a demon race Supreme Sage and made the other party a supreme elder of the Taiyi Holy Land. This was simply unbelievable.
After Qin Tian arrived, Qin Chen was filled with confidence. He shouted at Supreme Sage Peng Kong, “Peng Kong, do you dare to fight?”
“Hmph! What’s there to fear?” Peng Kong roared back and took out a Supreme Sage spear. He pointed the tip of the spear at Qin Chen, exuding a Sagely might and an extremely powerful aura.
Qin Chen brandished the Desolate Divine Halberd and stepped into the starry sky. He beckoned at Supreme Sage Peng Kong and shouted, “Come and fight!”
Supreme Sage Peng Kong immediately used the roc secret technique and pierced into the starry sky with his long spear, engaging in a battle with Qin Chen.
The power of the two’s exchange was great. In just a dozen moves, hundreds of stars were shattered.
The roc secret technique was activated, and the cry of the roc came from the starry sky. Even though they were hundreds of thousands of miles away, those in the Roc Forest could still see the divine manifestation of the roc in the sky. However, in just a few breaths, it was shattered by a divine halberd before turning into nothingness again.
Qin Chen and Supreme Sage Peng Kong were engaged in an all-out battle. The Desolate Divine Halberd was activated and the quasi-emperor might was terrifying. It suppressed half of the starry sky and forced Peng Kong to retreat.
Supreme Sage Peng Kong was indeed an experienced Supreme Sage from the primordial era. Even against a quasi-emperor weapon, he was still fearless. He transformed into a huge roc and soared. With the Supreme Sage weapon in his mouth, he fought with Qin Chen.
Everyone’s eyes were fixed on the starry sky. All of them knew that this battle concerned the life and death of the roc imperial clan.
If Supreme Sage Peng Kong was defeated, then the roc imperial clan would probably be destroyed today and become history.
However, if the human Elder King was defeated, it would greatly affect the morale of the people from the Taiyi Holy Land and the momentum of the attack on the roc imperial clan might change.
Not only that, but if the human race’s Elder King was defeated, the entire human race would probably suffer a blow.
After all, Elder King had long become the pillar of the human race. Almost everyone in the human race believed that he was invincible, even when he was facing a Supreme Sage who was one realm higher than him!
There were too many things that this battle would affect. Almost all the living beings on the Canglan Continent were paying attention to the two beings in the starry sky.
