Hearing this, everyone nodded because the threat of the Dark Demon world was greater than that of the Fish Scale world. When facing the Fish Scale world, even when they had all allied together, they had been at a disadvantage. Facing the even more powerful Dark Demon world, if they did not ally together, they would without a doubt die.

Great Qin was especially important – without Great Qin, they did not feel a bit of confidence at all. Last time, even though they had done decently without Great Qin at first, they had still been completely defeated in the end.

Great Qin was the human worlds’ toughest line of defense, and without it, the human world was completely doomed. Everyone felt the same way about this.

Geoffrey quickly sent letters to factions all over the world, and Zhao Fu also received one. The letter described the impending crisis and how terrifying the Demon Race was. They hoped that Great Qin would put aside its misgivings, and the Northern Continent factions sincerely pleaded Great Qin to come. The attitude in the letter was incredibly humble and sincere, but Zhao Fu only smiled.

After everyone received their letters, their expressions became incredibly grave; they had never thought that something like this would happen. It just had to happen while internal conflict was erupting in the human world.

What should they do now? It was evident that the human world was once again going to experience a war between worlds, and humanity was in a crisis. They did not hesitate to head over.

After all, the threat of the Dark Demon world was greater than that of the Fish Scale world, and with their tough defensive walls and Demon-countering items, they might still have a chance. Once the Dark Demon race broke through those defenses, there would be nothing left to defend with.

At the same time, everyone turned their gazes to Great Qin, feeling quite unsettled and unconfident. They were unsure as to whether or not Great Qin would participate because it did not participate last time.

If Great Qin did not come, they could only sigh; they were powerless to change Great Qin’s decisions.

This time, no one dared to criticize Great Qin anymore. Before, they had all criticized and slandered it, wanting to make trouble for Great Qin. However, Great Qin now had enough power to threaten the rest of the world.

Anyone who dared to criticize Great Qin would be attacked, and at this critical moment, if they said anything that caused Great Qin not to go and the Dark Demon race attacked, the ones who suffered the most would be them.

At the same time, the Dark Demon world’s various factions were discussing this as well. Mo Qi was still recovering from his injuries so he was not present, but the others still went ahead with the meeting.

The human world was no longer a weak chicken like they had thought because it had Great Qin’s Legatee. The Great Qin Kingdom was incredibly terrifying, and anyone who even thought about it felt fear.

Back then, even two World Protectors and ten or so Dynasty Legatees using their Nation Armaments could not defeat Great Qin’s Legatee, and their world’s most powerful person, Mo Qi, had escaped with serious injuries.

It could be said that the Dark Demon race was actually somewhat worried that Great Qin would lead the rest of the human world to attack them; right now, the Dark Demon world did not have any preparations.

This situation made their heads ache; first they had the threat of the mysterious organization, and now they also had the threat of Great Qin.

However, something they could celebrate about was that it was the Dark Demon world’s Southern Continent that connected to the human world, and the Southern Continent had been conquered by that mysterious organization. They wondered if those two sides would fight, and they hoped to see this. If the mysterious organisation and the human world fought, they could swoop in at the end to collect the benefits.

Of course, just to be safe, they still decided to make preparations so that they wouldn’t be caught defenseless if the other side really did attack.

In just three days, before the Dark Demon race had even appeared, a shocking amount of demonic qi had flooded to the human world’s defensive walls.

The Northern Continent factions felt an extreme sense of crisis, and their hair stood on end as they said, “The Dark Demon race is going to attack! Why haven’t all of our people come?”

The Northern Continent had 7,000 or so regions in total, around 27,000 Cities, and 2.5 billion soldiers. They had around 80% of the City Lords and soldiers gathered on the defensive walls to defend.

Within the Dark Demon world’s Southern Continent, Ye Cang smiled as he looked at his army of two billion soldiers. Only around one billion of them were proper soldiers while the rest were players or other indigenous residents, and they gave off a heaven-shaking aura.

An Ancestor of the Night Dynasty beside him said, “Ye Cang, won’t it be too difficult for our faction to attack the human world by ourselves? Also, those people from the mysterious organization haven’t sent help, while I heard that the human world is actually quite powerful. Great Qin’s Legatee and the Great Qin Kingdom are incredibly powerful, and I feel that with our strength, we won’t be able to defeat the Great Qin Kingdom.”

Ye Cang smiled but did not respond. After all, he could not just tell them the relationship between Great Qin’s Legatee and him.

After a while, he said, “I naturally know about this, and I’ve already made preparations. Don’t worry!” Hearing such confident words from Zhao Fu, the Ancestor nodded. He trusted Ye Cang a great deal.

“Roarrr…” the cries of countless beasts sounded through the sky, causing wild winds to blow as the ground violently shook. The people on the defensive walls felt a massive sense of pressure approaching.

Countless demon beasts roared as they flooded towards the defensive walls, and the sky was filled with countless demon birds. The scene of the heavens and earth being covered with demon beasts was quite shocking.

Ye Cang had gathered the demon beasts in the boundary of the Dark Demon world’s Southern Continent to launch the first wave of attacks. There were hundreds of millions of these demon beasts, and sensing the humans’ auras, they gave off bloodthirsty and merciless gazes.

Geoffrey and the other leaders did not look too shocked; they had already made preparations for the worst.

Facing the incoming demon beasts, the Shieldbearers stood in front with their shields raised while the countless archers behind them took out arrows covered with talismans. The talismans on the arrows gave off white light, and they were extremely damaging to evil-type creatures.

Swish, swish, swish…

Countless arrows brought with them white lights as they flew out powerfully, tearing through the sky. They rained down onto the demon beasts, causing countless demon beasts to cry out in pain. The arrows covered in white light brought immense pain, and normally those that were hit immediately died.

There were many Archers attacking, and with the white talismans, this first wave of attacks killed at least 30% of the demon beast horde.

If they could repeat this three more times, they would be able to essentially exterminate these demon beasts.

However, Ye Cang could not allow this to continue, so he started to attack from another side. 20 Corps released their Corps Formations and attacked the defensive walls as well.

Swish, swish, swish…

Countless arrows started to fly up from the ground towards the defensive walls, while the human side immediately used their shields to defend. At that moment, the Dark Demon world’s true advantage was put on display.

The Dark Demon world’s real world was a cultivation world, and now that everyone had been brought into the Heaven Awaken World, the fusion of their bodies in the real world and the Heaven Awaken World provided them with a large amount of cultivation power.
