2851 Sneak Attack on the City of Origin (1) City of Origin. When the hundreds of thousands of life tablets shattered in just five hundred seconds, the Elder Council was completely dumbfounded. They had never imagined that so many Sky Opening Realm powerhouses would die in such a short period of time. They were all powerhouses in the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm and above! Each of them had been nurtured by the City of Origin with countless efforts and resources. But in just five hundred seconds, the powerhouses that the City of Origin had nurtured for hundreds of thousands of years had all perished. How could they accept this? “Impossible, impossible. Something must have gone wrong, or they have lost contact with each other. Unless a Great Monarch comes in person, who can kill hundreds of thousands of Sky Opening Realm powerhouses?” “Traitor! An Bailin is a traitor! There must be something wrong with him!” “Damn it, he took away most of the Sky Opening Realm combat power of the City of Origin.” “I’m doomed. Even if I can defend against the tidal wave, so what? We’re doomed!” “Should I spread the news?” “How can we spread the news? If the news spreads out, the front line of the City of Origin will collapse instantly.” Someone was exasperated. “Damn it. What second Monarch of the human race? What declaration of war? What destruction of the front line? In fact, it was all planned by the human race. They deliberately used this to publicize the race war. That’s why we were a little anxious and wanted to use the tidal waves to launch a sneak attack on the human race.” “What vicious human beings! This is an extinction plot!” “Not only did they destroy the City of Scavengers, but they also want to destroy our City of Origin.” “Why? Our City of Origin didn’t enslave the human race! Why are they so ruthless?” However, no one answered this question. There was no reason for race wars. The human race treated their City of Origin as a stepping stone. Since it was a stepping stone, how could they let it rise again? At this moment, someone suddenly said, “Hurry up, the defeat of the City of Origin is a foregone conclusion. Before they know what happened, immediately transfer the disciples of the Heavenly Cicada Clan and other outstanding geniuses. No matter where they’re sent, they have to run now. Otherwise, when the tidal wave passes, the human army or the City of Wanderers will definitely arrive as quickly as possible. Then they won’t be able to escape. Therefore, now is our last chance.” “That’s right. This is an extinction crisis of our Heavenly Cicada Race. In any case, our bloodline must be passed on. Our Heavenly Cicada race had a god. Even if we leave the Chaotic Wasteland, one day, a god will be born with our bloodline again.” “I don’t know if a god can be born, but I know that I have to tell them that the human race is our enemy for life.” “Come on, move now.” Another moment later. Above the City of Origin, an elder shouted, “All those below the Venerable realm in the City of Origin, gather in the central square of the city in two hours. The city-protecting array here has been broken. In order to preserve the combat power of the Sky Opening realm, we have to immediately carry out a large-scale transfer.” Yes, the elders didn’t tell the truth. Otherwise, once they did, the front line would collapse. After all, no one who had cultivated to the Sky Opening Realm was a fool. As long as they knew that An Bailin had betrayed them and the 150,000-strong Sky Opening Realm army had been completely wiped out, they would probably run immediately. With the strength of the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm and perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivators, they would definitely be able to escape. However, if they ran away, the people left in the City of Origin would be all killed. Compared to the ten thousand Sky Openers, the hundreds of millions of seeds of the Heavenly Cicada Clan in the city were actually more important. Of course, the Elder Council could also ask these strong masters to run with ordinary people. But in that case, no one would be able to hold back the humans and the City of Wanderers. If there was no one to cover them, even if they were given a chance to run, could they escape? The strong masters of the Elder Council called out to collect the seeds of the City of Origin into their Origin Stars, but they didn’t choose to run immediately. If they all ran away, the people who stayed behind would definitely notice. Therefore, while the Elders secretly refined their Origin Stars, they opened a secret teleportation array, which was a teleportation path to the outside of the Chaotic Wasteland. Six hours later, the tidal wave was almost coming to an end, and the elders were almost done refining the stars. With the excuse of holding a meeting, the members of the Elder Council gathered and placed all their refined stars on an elder named An Yi. It was this person who had just gathered the seeds of the City of Origin into his Origin Star. An Yi had a special bloodline. Or rather, the members of the Elder Council were all special people of the Heavenly Cicada Clan. They either had special Daos, outstanding abilities, or extraordinary bloodlines. An Yi had extraordinary bloodlines. His Heavenly Cicada Wings were about twice as strong as others, which meant that his speed was more than twice that of other strong masters of the Heavenly Cicada lineage. Besides, An Yi had five locks. Now that even their Monarch had defected, the five lock-level powerhouses were already the strongest in the City of Origin. An Yi said, “Everyone, I’ll take my leave first. I’ll escape the Chaotic Wasteland at full speed. The human race has just destroyed 150,000 soldiers of our City of Origin. Even if they want to destroy the City of Origin, it will take them half a day. Half a day is enough for me to cross half of the Chaotic Wasteland. If they can be delayed for a day, I might be able to rush out of the Chaotic Wasteland with the help of a hidden teleportation array. Once I leave the Chaotic Wasteland, the sea is vast, and the sky is high. And we can just give up the City of Origin.” 2852 Sneak Attack on the City of Origin (2) An elder nodded. “Alright! That’s all we can do for now. It’s impossible to save the entire City of Origin. If the human race wants a race war, let’s fulfill their wish. As long as we don’t perish, the hope of the Heavenly Cicada Clan is still there.” Someone asked, “What about the Sky Opening Realm powerhouses outside? Are we really going to give up all of them?” Most of the elders shook their heads. Someone said, “The City of Origin is in danger. If we want to save them now, we’ll probably lose our lives. With them around, no one will know that we ran away. Everyone, the situation is against us now. Only when the City of Origin is destroyed under the nose of the human race will we be absolutely safe. With 60% of our elites who survive, we might have a chance to make a comeback in the future. There’s no need to gamble now.” Someone asked, “What about the resources in the resource bank?” An Yi said, “We can take up to 30% of the resources. Beyond this number, it’ll arouse doubt. When the human race can’t find the resources, they will inevitably guess that a group of people ran away. Considering the Human Emperor’s murderous personality, we will definitely live in fear in the future. Therefore, we can only take away 30% of each resource, and we can’t take away all the rare resources. We can get resources again, but we can’t gamble with our freedom.” “Got it.” “Seconded.” “Alright, let’s end it quickly. Otherwise, it will arouse suspicion.” “An Yi, just use the teleportation array and leave first. With you missing, no one will notice.” “That’s right. Leave quickly. I’ll erase this teleportation array as soon as you leave.” An Yi cupped his fists. “Everyone, see you in a few days.” In the meeting hall, An Yi was teleported away very quickly. Although people who could reach the level of the Elder Council usually bickered with each other, they were surprisingly united when it came to dealing with major events. After An Yi left, an elder who was proficient in arrays completely erased the teleportation array here, took back all the energy and resources in the Memories Hall, and erased all the Dao patterns. After they went out, the meeting hall was no different from before, but who knew that someone in the Elder Council of the City of Origin had already begun to run? As soon as the elders came out, someone immediately said solemnly, “Everyone, after our analysis, this City-Protecting Array has clearly been tampered with. And the person who tampered with it must be from the City of Wanderers.” An elder added, “At present, the plan to launch a sneak attack on the human race has already begun. So far, nearly 632 people have died, but this also happens to show that the human race doesn’t have enough means to deal with our sneak attack. Therefore, our greatest enemy now is not the human race, but the City of Wanderers. At this moment, the tidal wave is about to end, and it’s the time when the warriors of our City of Origin are most exhausted. I suggest that we clean up the battlefield in half a day as quickly as possible. After cleaning up the battlefield, the strong masters quickly take the scattered warriors of the City of Origin into your Origin Stars. We will hide in Revived Places for a short period of time. When our strength returns to its peak, we will come out to fight again.” This was naturally the Elder Council’s lie. Their purpose was to divert the attention of the incoming human army and buy some time for An Yi’s escape. The Sky Opening Realm powerhouses believed it immediately. They certainly didn’t expect that the Elder Council would lie to them, let alone that the 150,000-strong army An Bailin led had been completely wiped out. Han Fei couldn’t help but look at Luo Xiaobai with mixed feelings. “You’ve guessed right. The Elder Council of the City of Origin has really chosen to abandon the City of Origin.” Luo Xiaobai said, “It’s simple logic. The moment they knew that the 150,000-strong army had perished, they knew that the City of Origin was doomed. At this moment, anger is useless. If they resist stubbornly, they will only die. And sacrificing most people to save a small number of people is a choice most people will make. People are always selfish. Their choice is not wrong. If we hadn’t had your Vast Ocean Navigator, their plan must have succeeded.” Han Fei nodded slightly. Although he felt that he was already quite smart, Luo Xiaobai was always smarter, calmer than him, and seemed to have better judgment. From the moment she became the War Commander of the human race, she had probably guessed all the reactions of the City of Origin in her heart. Perhaps the term ‘having inexhaustible strategies’ was the best description for people like Luo Xiaobai. Han Fei said, “Based on the number of the ominous creatures, the sparse tidal waves can last for at most two hours. After that, there will only be scattered ominous creatures left. Shall we launch a general attack in two hours?” “OK…” Two hours later, the tidal wave was coming to an end, and there was no longer a steady stream of ominous creatures attacking the city. The warriors of the thirteen cities under the jurisdiction of the City of Origin were cleaning up the battlefield in full swing. They knew that danger was coming, but with the tidal wave blocking the way, they thought that even if a war would break out, the other party couldn’t act so quickly. But just as these people began to clean up the battlefield, the sea shook, and a perfected Star Transformation Realm strong master exclaimed, “Not good, the enemy is attacking, the enemy is attacking…” In their perception, an army of nearly 10,000 people was rushing over. The number of people was about the same as the number of Sky Openers in their City of Origin. 2853 Sneak Attack on the City of Origin (3) But they didn’t have the time to think about these questions, because the enemy came too quickly, completely disrupting their rhythm. The members of the Elder Council were also stunned at this moment. Their expressions changed drastically. “Impossible, how could they have come so quickly?” This anomaly completely disrupted the plan of the elders. They didn’t intend to escape now, but the enemy came so quickly. Obviously, they came prepared. A member of the Elder Council shouted, “Sky Openers, please quickly stop them. You must hold on for two hours. Everyone, immediately stop cleaning up the battlefield and return. Sea Establishers and ordinary Sky Openers, gather people into your Origin Seas or Origin Stars. Hurry up…” In the blink of an eye, as urged by the elders, 90% of the Sky Opening Realm powerhouses who had returned from the Chaotic Ice Domain took action. They thought that they were buying time for the three billion people in the City of Origin in the rear, but in fact, they didn’t know that they were only buying time for the escape plan of the elders of the City of Origin. However, when they came into contact with the incoming army, they were all surprised. This is clearly an army of puppets! Has the current City of Wanderers become so strong? Tens of thousands of puppets in the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm or perfected Star Transformation Realm? Did they see it right? Unfortunately, the enemy was right in front of them. Regardless of whether these puppets were from the City of Wanderers or not, they still needed to resist them. Therefore, they had no time to think and could only fight. However, just as they were fighting the puppet army, a large amount of black fog quietly dispersed in this void. Because the ominous aura was also black, they just thought that the black fog was another wave of ominous aura. But then, there was more and more black fog. When the black fog covered millions of kilometers, someone realized that something was wrong. “Not good, these are not ominous aura.” “What is this? What a strong aura of death.” “Not good, we are surrounded by this thing.” “Damn it. This is obviously a trap.” “The enemy is coming too fast. It’s as if they’re waiting for the tidal wave to end.” “F*ck, a powerful enemy is hiding near my City of Origin.” Suddenly, a voice sounded behind everyone. “Hehe, the people from the City of Origin don’t look very smart. You don’t even know our Immortal Temple?!” “Who is it?” “Immortal Temple?” Many people looked back while fighting the puppets, only to see countless black-robed figures standing quietly in the darkness. It wasn’t until they were close that someone was shocked. “It’s the Immortal Temple.” Han Fei almost rolled his eyes. You’ve been told! Why are you still making a fuss? At this moment, in Han Fei’s Origin Star, Luo Xiaobai was talking to everyone who participated in the battle. Luo Xiaobai said, “Everyone, the battle between our human race and the City of Origin will officially begin the moment you go out. In this race war, cultivators of every realm have their respective battlefield, and everyone has your own battle. Therefore, no strong masters will help you in this battle. You have to rely on yourselves. You may die or win, but it depends on you. The rise of the human race is not the rise of the Human Emperor alone, but the rise of the entire human race. Once you come to this battlefield, you have no way out…” It was rare for Luo Xiaobai to say so much, even if her words were quite ruthless. Following that, Luo Xiaobai shouted, “In ten seconds, the Sky Opener and Sea Establisher will fight. Remember, your mission is to pull powerhouses of the same realm into the void to fight. The reality is not your place to fight.” “Yes, Commander.” The Sky Openers and Sea Establishers had both been led to fight a front-line battle by Luo Xiaobai. At first, they didn’t think much of Luo Xiaobai, but since they saw Luo Xiaobai’s brilliant plan in that battle, they put away this contempt. At this moment, the race war was no children’s play. They didn’t dare to take it lightly. Another moment later. Buzz! Above the City of Origin, thousands of Sky Opening Realm powerhouses suddenly appeared, including Wang Xiaojiu, Wang Lanlan, and the others. As for the Sea Establishers, there were as many as 180,000. Of course, if it were before, these people wouldn’t be a match for the City of Origin. But in the battle at the front line, nearly 70,000 Sea Establishers of the City of Origin died. Although they still had about 60,000 more Sea Establishers than the human race, the gap was already very small. In the thirteen cities of the City of Origin, the Sky Openers and Sea Establishers all soared into the sky. However, they were exhausted at this moment. The three days and three nights of endless fighting had consumed their spiritual power greatly. At this moment, so many enemies suddenly appeared. They were not mentally prepared at all! The few Sky Openers who didn’t fight the puppets exclaimed, “Humans? How can it be humans?” “How is this possible? Lord An Bailin led an army to launch a sneak attack on the human race! How can humans appear in the City of Origin?” “Could it be that both sides have the same idea and are sneak attacking each other?” “Who cares? Hurry up, buy time for everyone to move to Revived Places!” “It’s too late.” After the Sky Openers and Sea Establishers arrived, a hundred million Venerables suddenly appeared. 2854 Sneak Attack on the City of Origin (4) “F*ck, where did so many human Venerables come from?” “How many Venerables are there?” “Come on, all the cities, continue to activate the City-Protecting Arrays.” “All Venerables, prepare to fight.” “Humans are attacking! Humans are attacking! Get ready to fight!” “Why? Where is the City Lord? Where are the Sky Opening Realm powerhouses in our city?” “It’s over. We can’t escape. The race war that the human race mentioned has begun.” “Why did the human race come so quickly? Can anyone explain?” “Explain my ass. The human race is already at the door. Even if we don’t want to fight, we have to. There’s no turning back.” As for the Sky Opening Realm powerhouses, they wanted to find the members of the Elder Council, only to discover, to their surprise, that there were no members of the Elder Council in the thirteen cities. They had all f*cking disappeared. “F*ck! The Elder Council lied to us!” Someone found the storage space of the life tablets and glanced at it, only to be stunned. “Gulp… All… All dead?” The man was shocked at first, and then he felt that all his hair was standing on end. He wanted to shout out and tell everyone, but he held himself back. If he shouted out loud and told everyone that the City Lord was dead and the 150,000-strong Sky Opening Realm army had been wiped out, it would only cause the resistance of the City of Origin to instantly collapse. At that moment, he suddenly realized what the Elders had done. They had discovered this secret early on, but they kept it a secret and escaped, leaving the others here to attract the firepower. “Damn it, a bunch of shameless b*stards.” This person also wanted to run, but now that the human army was pressing down, there was no way for them to escape. But this person didn’t give up. He perked up and spoke to all the remaining colleagues Sky Openers, “Everyone, the City Lord has perished. The 150,000-strong army he took away has all perished, and their life tablets are all shattered. The elders found this out a few hours ago, so they ran away with the elites of the Heavenly Cicada Clan, leaving us here to wait for death.” “What?” “What the hell are you talking about?” “You can check whether I’m lying or not.” “B*stards, what should we do now? Do we still fight?” This person suggested, “Let’s keep it a secret for now. Over there, it’s shrouded in black fog. I suspect that everyone else has been ambushed. If we don’t leave, we’ll definitely die.” Someone echoed, “The strength of the humans’ Sky Openers is mediocre. Now, they can only attack us with a dozen or so against one. The nearly thousand human Sky Openers have only entangled a hundred or so Sky Openers of us, and we still have more than 900 people available. Why don’t we break through a gap and fight our way out together? If we don’t leave now, when the battle on the other side is over, none of us can escape.” “F*ck, what about the others in the city?” “Can you save them? This is a race war with billions of soldiers. How can you save them?” “We can’t even protect ourselves. The elders have all fled. Brothers, I know a Revived Place and we can hide in it to avoid disaster. Let’s fight our way out!” Buzz buzz buzz! At this moment, the City of Origin was in a mess. More than 900 Sky Opening Realm powerhouses began to charge in a certain direction at the same time. Han Fei and Luo Xiaobai didn’t care about all this at all. They just quietly watched these people rush out smoothly. Another moment later. These people rushed forward and bumped into a dark mist that suddenly appeared. In the next moment, countless bones extended out of the mist, and those Sky Openers were all shocked. “Not good, there are Monarchs.” “Damn it. We’ve been tricked.” “You traitor, you deliberately led us into this place.” The guy who said that he knew a Revived Place changed his appearance in the blink of an eye. Who else could it be but Han Fei? Of course, it wasn’t Han Fei’s real body, but it wasn’t difficult for him to disguise himself as a Heavenly Talent of the Heavenly Cicada Clan. In the darkness, a cold laugh echoed. “It’s your honor to have the dignified Human Emperor personally take you here.” Han Fei put on a smile. “Hey, don’t forget the resources.” In the black fog, a voice sounded. “After this battle is over, our Immortal Temple will personally send their Origin Stars to the human race.” “That’s good. These people are yours.” At this point, the City of Origin no longer had any peak combat power. At this moment, the City of Origin was an absolutely fair battlefield. Yes, everything Han Fei and Luo Xiaobai did was to create a fair battlefield for this war. Luo Xiaobai said, “We’ve done everything we can. They have to pass this level no matter what.” 2855 Reactivate the Five Major Professions (1) The destruction of the City of Origin was undisputed and preordained. From the beginning, the City of Origin still existed because Han Fei had left it to hone the human race as a stepping stone and a tool for training soldiers. Now, the human race had temporarily adapted to the Sea Realm, and most of them were stuck in a bottleneck. They needed a battle, a huge, long-lasting, crazy battle. Without the large number of Sky Opening Realm powerhouses, the City of Origin quickly fell into chaos. The plan of the powerhouses to move to a Revived Place had been ruined before it began. The human army surged like a tide. First, it was the Sea Establishers, and then it was the Venerables. The corresponding strong masters in the City of Origin and the thirteen cities under its jurisdiction had no choice but to take off and fight. They had no choice, because they couldn’t fight in the cities, or innocent people would be implicated. The aftershock of the battle alone would cause countless deaths. The only thing that made them feel lucky was that the human race didn’t have many Sea Establishers. After being divided up by the fourteen cities, the average number of people was only more than 10,000. As for the Venerables, although there were as many as 100 million Venerables on the human race’s side, there were more than 30 million on the City of Origin’s side. However, they quickly sensed that the general strength of the human race’s Venerables wasn’t high. Many of them had just entered the Venerable realm or the intermediate Venerable realm. From the looks of it, the 100 million Venerables of the human race only looked a little scary in number. After the Venerables in the City of Origin saw through the strength of the human Venerables, they thought that if it weren’t for the three-day tide battle, they were confident to be evenly matched with the 100 million Venerables of the human race, or even stronger. Even if their combat strength wasn’t at its peak, they felt that they could still fight. As for the Explorers, there were even more of them. There were as many as 2 billion people on the human side alone, and as many as 600 million in the City of Origin, equivalent to one fifth of the total population. It could be seen that the average strength of the City of Origin was much stronger than that of the human race. Even if it was three against one, it wouldn’t be easy for the human race to win, and there would inevitably be heavy casualties. As for those below the Explorer level, there were many of them. The human race had nearly 8 billion people, and the City of Origin only had more than 2.4 billion. Therefore, in terms of comprehensive numbers, except for Sea Establishers, the human race had about three times the military strength of the City of Origin. As for the Sea Establishment realm, with the Seven Kill Army here, the human race wouldn’t be at a disadvantage. For a time, a great battle began, and horns of the charge sounded one after another. The human tide spread out, and in just one clash, the City of Origin was completely crushed. Of course, this was because the humans were well prepared, while the City of Origin weren’t. Therefore, they couldn’t gather their forces so quickly. It was certainly impossible for a small number of soldiers to block the torrent of humans. Therefore, in an instant, be it Venerables or Explorers, the City of Origin was swept away. However, one of the characteristics of the human charge was that they only attacked strong masters of the same level as them. They would not attack anyone in a lower realm than them. This was because they knew that this race war was their war, the human emperor and the war commander’s trial on them. Only a battle of the same realm could temper them. They didn’t feel a sense of accomplishment killing people of lower realms than them. On the battlefield. The order of the City of Origin was quickly being corrected. Someone shouted, “Don’t panic. Everyone, don’t panic. Sea Establishers, fight in the void. Venerables, quickly disperse and try to restrain the human race. Explorers, quickly retreat from the cities and gather at the Thousand Islands Mine not far away. Those below the Explorer realm, prepare to fight in the streets.” There was no shortage of commanders of war in the City of Origin. After all, the City of Origin, the City of Scavengers, and the City of Wanderers all had strong masters leading their troops to fight on the graveyard battlefield. So the City of Origin still had a lot of commander-level figures. At this moment, the commanders’ role was neither big nor small. They were useful because they could quickly stabilize the chaotic situation in the City of Origin. They weren’t very useful because they had nothing to do after directing everyone how to fight. This was because there were too many people in this race war. It was unrealistic to precisely direct so many people to fight. It was already very impressive to be able to separate the battlefields of various realms. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for low-level cultivators to survive in such an environment. Han Fei, Luo Xiaobai, and the others didn’t comment on this but just watched this scene quietly. They had done enough. Since the beginning of the war, the human race had always had an absolute advantage. Now that it was time to speak with strength, they shouldn’t help the humans anymore. So the battlefield divided by the temporary commanders of the City of Origin was something they were happy to see. On the battlefield of the Sky Opening Realm who started to fight earliest, the thousand Sky Opening Realm powerhouses who had besieged a hundred peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivators of the City of Origin were at a disadvantage. This was specially instructed by Han Fei not to fight perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivators but only to kill peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm ones. But in less than half an hour, more than a dozen Sky Opener-level powerhouses had died on the human side. 2856 Reactivate the Five Major Professions (2) As for Wang Xiaojiu and the others, as Dao Lock-level powerhouses, they guarded the five directions and didn’t attack. Their mission was to prevent these peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivators of the City of Origin from escaping. But seeing humans being killed, Wang Xiaojiu couldn’t help but ask Han Fei, “Are we really not going to help them?” Han Fei clenched his fists. All the Sky Openers were precious for the human race. He didn’t want to lose any of them, but they were killed one after another although each of them had godly weapons and the other party had been fighting for three consecutive days. However, he couldn’t help them. If one wanted to grow, he had to fight. Even Sky Openers weren’t an exception. Seeing this, Luo Xiaobai comforted him. “You can’t bear to let our Sky Openers take the risk, but the more you protect them, the more vulnerable they are. Even if they can survive this time, what about next time?” Han Fei clenched his fists and nodded solemnly. Then he shook his head at Wang Xiaojiu. “You don’t have to do anything.” However, Han Fei suddenly reached out and plucked the Hexagon Starfish from Luo Xiaobai’s body. “Ah! No! Starfish doesn’t want to fight! Starfish has just transcended the tribulation!” Swish ~ Han Fei ignored the call of the Hexagon Starfish. This guy’s Six-Gate Array was quite powerful, and after he advanced to the Sky Opening Realm, his talent in arrays became even stronger. There was no telling if it was because the Hexagon Starfish was afraid of death that he focused all his talents on defense. Therefore, as long as there were still resources in his six gates, even a perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator couldn’t kill him in one blow. At this moment. On the battlefield of the Sky Opening Realm, Xu Meng’s Qi and blood soared as he activated a secret technique and burned his will. He was fighting a peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm powerhouse from the City of Origin when he roared, “Everyone, I’ll hold him off.” “Ancient Desolate War Body, Roar…” Xu Meng’s strength suddenly soared and he entered a berserk state. This was the only Venerable-level divine-quality technique that Xu Meng could use now. Although it was only at the Venerable level, its strength lay in its berserk state, which doubled its strength, just like what Xu Meng was doing now. Bang! The peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm powerhouse of the City of Origin slightly changed his expression and punched out. Xu Meng was sent flying and even smashed through the void, causing cracks to appear in the void. “Huh? An overdraft-type secret method? It can help you reach the late-stage of the Star Transformation Realm?” The man’s face changed slightly. He wasn’t afraid of a late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivator, but he was besieged at this moment! Although a late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivator was insignificant, there were ten people besieging him. Three of them were at the late-stage Star Transformation Realm. As for the other five or six, although they hadn’t entered the Star Transformation Realm, they were obviously stronger than their peers. “Is the level of the cultivation technique very high?” This powerhouse was horrified. These people had thick skin and flesh and couldn’t be killed no matter how hard he fought them. Furthermore, their techniques were extraordinary. How many powerful cultivation techniques and combat skills had the human race taught them? This person glanced at the ferocious beasts guarding outside and made up his mind. A light flashed between his eyebrows, and a small cicada lit up. Then, a mysterious sound shot straight into Xu Meng’s mind. However, with this blow, the nine people who surrounded this person, including Xu Meng, unleashed their Star Beads at the same time. Yes, using the Star Beads to attack was their strongest method. They intended to heavily injure the opponent’s soul. With a bang, the void exploded. Xu Meng was not killed by the soul attack but grinned. “Thank you, everyone.” Bang! However, before Xu Meng could rejoice, he saw that the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm powerhouse from the City of Origin also launched a Star Bead attack. It couldn’t be helped. One against nine, he had to fight with his full strength. Therefore, he could only try his best at this moment. He roared, “Everyone, stop hiding. If we want to leave, not only are these people stopping you, but there are also those five ferocious beasts. We have to evacuate quickly.” “Evacuate! How much liquor have you had? Look how drunk you are.” “Cicada Movement, Soul Breaking Kill.” This person fought for a long time and found that he couldn’t get rid of Xu Meng and the others. Finally, he activated a great technique. His body was like a phantom as he rushed forward with the sound of tearing through the void. In the next moment, he turned into tens of thousands of glass blades and suddenly attacked. In an instant, he nailed through two human Sky Openers who were besieging him. The glass blades cut the two of them into pieces in an instant. “A*shole.” They could feel that the glass blades were full of soul power. In a very short period of time, the other party could kill these two people with the strength of the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm. However, it seemed to be too late to save them now. “Old Yu.” Someone roared. In the next moment, one of the two people nailed through actually had his soul leave his body and roared, “I’ll drag you down with me even if I die. Soul Explosion…” This was Zhang Xuanyu’s Soul Explosion Technique. During his stay in the human race, Zhang Xuanyu had left behind many soul-type offensive techniques. The Soul Explosion Technique was the simplest and strongest close-quarters combat technique. Rumble! The powerhouse was so heavily impacted by the explosion that blood gushed out of his eyes, ears, nose and mouth. He covered his head with both hands. “F*ck, kill this fish shit!” “Son of a b*tch, I’m gonna kill you today.” In desperation, the three of them launched soul attacks one after another. Xu Meng felt that his heart was burning as if a fire was ignited in his chest. Nine against one, but one of them was still killed. He couldn’t help but feel sad. It was because he wasn’t strong enough. It was because they weren’t strong enough. At that moment, Xu Meng burned his life and used all his anger to brand a saber beam on this peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm powerhouse, cutting him into pieces from his head to his feet. 2857 Reactivate the Five Major Professions (3) At the moment this person’s flesh and blood were shattered and his soul dispersed, Xu Meng and the others immediately formed a circle. Their soul attacks continuously annihilated the remaining soul. After this person died, Xu Meng and the other eight were exhausted. Each of them took out their energy crystals and began to absorb them quickly. Of course, they knew that it was not good to use too many energy crystals, but now was not the time to worry about this. They still had to fight the next battle. On their side, the situation was not bad. There were a few besieging teams with only one or two people still fighting. Yes, they had tried their best but failed to kill one peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivator. And once there was no one holding them back, one or two people couldn’t resist a peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm powerhouse at all. Therefore, after only resting for a hundred seconds, Xu Meng and the others rushed to another battlefield. After only a short while, Wang Xiaojiu and even Wang Lanlan asked Han Fei whether they should attack or not. It was Luo Xiaobai who answered them. Luo Xiaobai said, “Today, no matter what the war is like, even if half of our Sky Openers are killed, you don’t have to interfere unless I order it.” Wang Xiaojiu said, “Woman, you are too cruel. I’m not from your human race, but even I can’t bear it.” But in the next moment, a black-robed figure quietly appeared. He said in a sharp voice, “You still don’t understand. It’s useless for one person of a race to be strong. The rise of a race has to be that everyone in this race is becoming stronger. Between life and death, there are great horrors. Since ancient times, there have been only a few ways to make people stronger. You either have to gain insight in battle or have external forces help you. No matter how many external forces there are, they can’t always accompany you. Once there are no external forces, you won’t be far from death.” Han Fei glanced at the black-robed man casually. “You sound quite experienced?” The black-robed man chuckled. “My clansmen died like this. Because I couldn’t bear to let them experience all the things the human race is experiencing, they had no room to resist when a real catastrophe came. Seeing the human race today reminds me of my clansmen. Sigh, if I had been more ruthless back then…” Han Fei couldn’t help but look at the undead. This person’s strength hadn’t reached the Carefree realm, but he didn’t seem to have just proven Dao. He should be close to the Carefree realm. Although he had reached an agreement with the Immortal Temple, he still didn’t understand where the undead came from or how they disappeared. Unless their powerhouses walked out of the mist of death, it was difficult to judge their strength and number. The man seemed to feel that he had said too much, so he laughed dryly. “As expected of a disciple of the Void Temple. You actually killed 150,000 peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm and perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivators in one go. Impressive.” Han Fei didn’t pay much attention to the other party’s flattery. Instead, he said, “I can give you the corpses this time, but what will you give me in exchange?” “Haha, from today onwards, any human who becomes undead after dying in battle can stay in the human race and continue to fight for the human race.” Both Han Fei and Luo Xiaobai’s pupils were constricted slightly. After dozens of seconds, Han Fei nodded casually. “Okay.” … On the battlefield, the Sea Establishment Realm battles were going well, because the Seven Kill Army was very strong and almost 80% of them had reached the peak level of the Sea Establishment Realm. Besides, with the various techniques and time acceleration given by Han Fei, these people were ridiculously strong. Not to mention fighting the Sea Establishers of the City of Origin, they could even participate in the 100,000-year competition. Perhaps some of them could even rank high. Of course, only about 60,000 of them were at this level. The rest were not from the Seven Kill Army. Most of them had just advanced to the Sea Establishment Realm decades ago. Although they were supported by official resources, they were still lacking in real combat power. As for the Venerables, the battle was quite fierce. When one reached the Venerable realm, they could fly in the sky or burrow into the ground. They could travel a thousand kilometers with a single step and were usually proficient in various techniques or combat techniques. However, the Venerable realm was the beginner realm of Dao Enlightenment. It was the key to comprehending the essence of the Great Dao. The battlefield of more than 100 million people stretched thousands of kilometers into the sky. At this moment, the sky was full of techniques like dazzling flames. In terms of cultivation techniques, combat skills, and techniques, the human Venerables were actually not bad, but their cultivation time was shorter than that of the other party and they lacked actual combat ability. The Venerables in the City of Origin were stronger because they were very fast. Although not everyone in the City of Origin belonged to the Heavenly Cicada family, that was because not everyone could awaken the Heavenly Cicada bloodline, so over time, they became ordinary people. However, even if they hadn’t awakened the bloodline of the Heavenly Cicada, their speed was not weak. Even the ordinary people who were mediocre in all aspects had very fast speed, which was related to their bloodline. However, at this moment, they had just experienced the tidal wave, so with the three against one fighting mode, the human race had the upper hand, which was somewhat beyond Han Fei and Luo Xiaobai’s expectations. Han Fei could tell why. It was because almost 80% of the Venerables had cultivated the Ancient Desolate War Body. Or rather, not all of them had learned the Ancient Desolate War Body. They had chosen to cultivate the body technique of the 108 Desolate God Body. 2858 Reactivate the Five Major Professions (4) Logically speaking, it was a little late for Venerables to cultivate the Ancient Desolate War Body. Although they could still cultivate the Ancient Desolate War Body, it required a lot of resources. Furthermore, the cultivation effect wasn’t that good. However, the greatest feature of the 108 Desolate God Body was not its strong physique, but its footwork and combat skills. Yes, not only these Venerables, but many Explorers also practiced this technique. Han Fei didn’t pay much attention to it before, because he was cultivating most of the time. Even if he was the Human Emperor, he wouldn’t be bored enough to watch what the 180 billion people of the entire human race were doing every day, right? Of course, cultivating the 108 Desolate God Body didn’t make them invincible, but their combat skills, evasion, and physique were better. At this moment, a Venerable from the City of Origin was so fast that the human Venerables couldn’t dodge him at all. When Han Fei and Luo Xiaobai noticed that person, he had already killed nearly a hundred human beings. He was definitely a Heavenly Talent. Until this person met a team of cultivators of the five major professions. Obviously, they were from the Yin-Yang World. This made Han Fei and Luo Xiaobai a little dazed. People cultivating the five major professions had actually decreased a lot after the people of the Yin-Yang World left the Yin-Yang World. Although there were still five major professions in the Raging Sea, at that time, not many people formed teams because they had more choices. It might be inconvenient for five people to stay together all the time. For example, Han Fei and the other four were separated in the end because they had to separate when their strength grew to a certain level. However, the team in front of him had all reached the Venerable realm, but they still maintained the habit of living and dying together. It was really eye-catching. The man from the City of Origin said coldly, “Five in one? What a show.” Without a word, he instantly disappeared. At the moment he disappeared, the armorist in the team shouted, “Heavenly Shield Attachment.” Clang! Clang! Clang! In the blink of an eye, the five of them were covered in invisible shields. The man from the City of Origin attacked but failed to kill any of them. Han Fei couldn’t help but say, “He’s fast, so his combat power isn’t high. In fact, it only needs a layer of shield armor to block him.” Luo Xiaobai didn’t speak but continued to watch. Then, the Heavenly Talent of the City of Origin saw that the spirit gatherer among the five of them was stepping on a spiritual array. It was a trapping array that rose in all directions. There was no law in it, so it couldn’t trap him. But he was sure that this strange array had a function, so he turned around and attacked the spirit gatherer with all his strength. However, in front of him was a soul warrior holding a saber. The soul warrior summoned his spiritual beast, an octopus, and held eight scimitars in his hand. He tried to block the attacks, but because he couldn’t keep up with the enemy’s speed, he was missed after only one clash with the Heavenly Talent of the City of Origin. However, after that round of entanglement, the hunter in the team used the Thousand Opportunities Flash and slashed out a thousand blades, instantly leaving dozens of wounds on the Heavenly Talent of the City of Origin. Seeing this, Han Fei and Luo Xiaobai couldn’t help but be dazed. What a familiar scene. The Heavenly Talent from the City of Origin was shocked. He didn’t know when this person disappeared under his nose and appeared again. He formed a net with his sword technique and managed to block the hunter. Suddenly, he discovered that vines were snaking out of the void. Among the vines that filled the sky, there was always one that could catch him. The moment he was caught, the armorist put on a smile, and swords and knives poured out of the armor box behind him, forming a storm of swords and knives. After all, he was a Venerable. Even if Blade Storm was just an ordinary combat skill, it was still extraordinary to be performed by a Venerable. When the Heavenly Talent of the City of Origin were trapped by the Blade Storm, the spirit gatherer shouted in a low voice, “Sword Tide Array, Ultimate Killing Array, Six Spirit Armor Beads, rise…” In the blink of an eye, the spiritual arrays that he had set up just now appeared at the same time, trapping the Heavenly Talent of the City of Origin. In all directions, he was surrounded by endless blades, sword marks, and random Void Blades. Puff, puff, puff! But in the blink of an eye, this person’s body was covered in blood. No matter how fast he was or how he dodged, he couldn’t dodge. This person even jumped up and tried to break out, only to bump into the binding array formed by the Six Spirit Armor. Puff, puff, puff! In the next moment, infinite blades cut off all the flesh on this person’s body. The man was appalled. “That’s impossible. Your strength is mediocre…” The spirit gatherer sneered. “It’s strong enough to kill you.” … Han Fei and Luo Xiaobai looked at each other, their eyes shining with a strange brilliance. Han Fei and Luo Xiaobai immediately looked around the battlefield. Soon, Han Fei said, “Here.” The place Han Fei pointed to was only the battlefield of explorers. In one of the battlefields, thousands of five-person teams were fighting. The two of them saw that these five-person teams had unleashed unimaginable combat power in the group battle. As for the one with the highest combat power, more than 30 people from the City of Origin charged at them but failed to kill them. Instead, seven or eight of them were killed. Han Fei and Luo Xiaobai watched for about half an hour. Finally, Luo Xiaobai slowly said, “The five-person teams have extremely low casualties. A five-person team with perfect cooperation can defend against at most 30 enemies. Even a five-person team with ordinary cooperation can defend against seven or eight enemies. I’ve watched three teams fight. One has imperfect cooperation, one has ordinary cooperation, and the other has perfect cooperation. The first team killed eight enemies and all perish. The second team killed 14 enemies. After the armorist and soul warrior died, they killed six more, and then all died. The third team killed 24 enemies in a row and all survived… As long as they don’t face a group attack all at once, the chances of survival of a five-person team with perfect cooperation are extremely high.” 2859 Reactivate the Five Major Professions (5) After a few seconds of silence, Han Fei suddenly shouted at the battlefield, “Yi Xiyan, Su Daiji, Xing Yue, Su Sanqian, and Gu Qi, the five of you, don’t fight separately. Fight together. I want to see your true strength.” The five of them were shocked. “Eldest Senior Brother?” Since Han Fei had given the order, they certainly didn’t dare to be negligent. In fact, they didn’t cooperate to fight for a long time. This was because their individual combat ability was very strong now. If they fought separately at the same time, they could kill five people, but if they cooperated, they could only kill one person. Unless a group of people rushed over and wanted to fight them head-on. Of course, because they were close partners and the Sea Establishment Realm battlefield wasn’t big, they were close to each other. In just three or five seconds, the five of them met up. The five of them looked at each other and Yi Xiyan shouted, “It’s been a long time since we’ve fought like this. We can’t disgrace ourselves since Eldest Senior Brother wants to watch it.” In the next moment, as the captain, Xing Yue shouted, “Go to the area where the Seven Kill Army is fighting.” After a while, on the battlefield, a Sea Establisher from the City of Origin saw thw five people coming together and immediately called out, “Anyone come to help?” Originally, there were many Sea Establishers in the City of Origin, but most of them were fighting the Seven Kill Army. The Seven Kill Army was powerful, so there were naturally many people besieging them. At this moment, with a shout, someone naturally temporarily withdrew from the siege and attacked Xing Yue and company. Xing Yue shouted, “Gu Qi, lure the enemy.” Gu Qi took out an armor box that she hadn’t used for a long time. As soon as the armor box was opened, the Blade Storm slashed out. There were seven enemies. The Great Dao swept out and fists and saber beams struck out as the Blade Storm dissipated. In the next moment, Su Daiji carried two huge hammers and rushed over alone. As she jumped, thousands of hammers shot out. As for Xing Yue and company, they followed Su Daiji’s footsteps and maintained a relative distance without changing. Su Daiji could fight seven alone, but this was not the time to show off. This was cooperation. Since Eldest Senior Brother wanted them to cooperate, they had to cooperate well. Seeing that Su Daiji’s attack was quick and fierce, the seven people opposite almost unleashed their speed at the same time. They could tell that although Su Daiji was small, her combat strength was rather terrifying. “Armor, Ten Thousand Phenomena Armor.” As Gu Qi shouted, Su Daiji put on an invisible armor. There was a semi-curved armor shield on both sides of her body to block. Su Daiji placed her double hammers in front of her. After a series of clangs, she was only sent flying hundreds of kilometers. “Ah! Puff~” However, just as the main power of the Sea Establishers of the City of Origin was placed on Su Daiji, Yi Xiyan suddenly appeared beside one of them. The short knife flashed a thousand times in the blink of an eye. The dagger was enhanced by soul power and directly stabbed a Sea Establisher over and destroyed his soul. The others were startled. They had been careless. They, who were good at speed, had actually been approached by a late-stage Sea Establisher. Three people attacked. One launched a soul power attack at Yi Xiyan, and two spear beams stabbed at her. However, in the next moment, although Yi Xiyan didn’t move, she retreated quickly. “Huh?” Just as they were wondering how Yi Xinyan retreated, the three people who had attacked suddenly felt their bodies tighten. They hurriedly nodded and looked over, only to discover that they had been entangled in layers of spider silk. “Sword Waterfall!” In the next moment, six sword shadows flashed out of Gu Qi’s armor box in a row, but what appeared was a dense sword shadow like an upside-down waterfall hanging in the sky. As the three Sea Establishment realm powerhouses were entangled by the spider silk, they were pierced through in the blink of an eye and their souls were destroyed. Since Zhang Xuanyu taught humans many soul techniques, at least every time a student of the Thug Academy attacked, it would attack the enemy’s souls and had very strong destructive power. Of the seven of them, only three were left in the blink of an eye. When the three of them saw the perfect cooperation of Xing Yue and company, they felt helpless. They felt that their attacks were like stones sinking into the sea and couldn’t touch them at all. Therefore, the first thing they wanted to do was to retreat and reorganize more people. However, they ignored the fact that there was still the commander-in-chief, Xing Yue. As a spirit gatherer, Xing Yue needed to control the overall situation and could heal his teammates. As a Sea Establishment Realm spirit gatherer, he was very powerful to begin with and only temporarily played a commander and support role. When the three of them tried to retreat, they suddenly discovered that they had retreated into a misty space. “Not good, it’s a maze array.” A Sea Establishment Realm spirit gatherers could set up arrays with a thought, but as long as they paid attention, they could actually notice it. However, after being knocked down by Gu Qi and the others, they couldn’t tell north from south, so they ignored it. So, when they blindly wanted to quit, it was already too late. The enemy who had entered a Sea Establishment Realm Maze Array, under the siege of a perfect combination, the outcome could be imagined. The three of them were tied up by threads at the same time. They were dragged at a certain distance, and then three sledgehammers fell from the sky. With just three hammers, all three of them died. This battle actually exceeded Xing Yue and company’s expectations. Five against seven, it only took about 30 seconds. More importantly, the time it took wasn’t the most important. At that moment, Xing Yue and company looked at each other in bewilderment. Su Sanqian: “Isn’t it a little too simple?” Gu Qi: “Their cooperation is simply a mess. I feel that even if they are all peak-level Sea Establishers, we can still kill them.” Su Daiji: “Yes, they’re a little weak!” Yi Xiyan said, “Perhaps the people in the Sea Realm are relatively uncooperative.” Xing Yue concluded, “That’s right. We forgot about team battles. Although it’s not impossible to fight alone, the danger index is very high. Even if it’s us, it’s very difficult to kill all enemies in one go when surrounded by multiple peak-level Sea Establishment Realm powerhouses. From now on, if we join forces, it’ll be safer and our killing speed will be faster.” While Xing Yue and the others made the decision, Han Fei and Luo Xiaobai looked at each other and said almost in unison, “Reactivate the five major professions.” 2860 The Road of the Human Race(1) Han Fei and Luo Xiaobai realized a problem at the same time, which was the origin of the five professions. When they were young and still lived in the small world of the Yin-Yang World, the five major professions were everyone’s path. When everyone’s talent was awakened, they had basically laid the foundation for their profession. They could quickly determine their profession according to their spiritual beast and their affinity with the professions. When fighting an enemy, what one’s profession was was quite important. For example, during the large-scale battle on the Scattered Stars Island. Soul warriors were the absolute first line of defense and played a pivotal role. Armorists were absolute powerhouses in area attacks. Hunters specialized in hunting intelligent creatures and commander-type talents among the enemy, trying to kill them with one blow. Spirit gatherers could be said to be the strongest healers. In terms of immediate and large-scale healing, Han Fei had never seen any group better than them. A manipulator, in addition to their own control ability, was also a born commander-type talent. Whether in team battles, solo battles, or escape abilities, they were excellent. The five major professions complemented each other. Perhaps when they grew up, they wouldn’t be strong enough separately. And the five of them might vary in strength. However, in a large-scale group battle, the combination of the five major professions was almost a perfect tactical combination. When Han Fei and the others were young, they had asked about the origin of the five major professions, but they were told that the five major professions were passed down from ancient times. But when was this ancient time? And who passed down these professions? The old turtle had said before that people cultivating the same Great Dao were mutually attracted to each other, but he hadn’t felt it at all except when he encountered Zhao Qinglong. Perhaps it was because he was too strong in the same realm, so he didn’t feel it clearly. However, the old turtle at that time was just a clone with incomplete memories. He misled him with the principle of the mutual attraction of the people cultivating the same Great Dao and even made him mistakenly think that the strong masters of the same Great Dao would definitely harvest the weak. Therefore, he once thought that the five professions might have been deliberately passed down by some strong masters to harvest the weak. But now it seemed that the old turtle’s words weren’t complete. For example, Gu Tingnan and he had both awakened the Heavenly Awakening Divine Technique, but had Gu Tingnan harvested him? On the contrary, now that he had discovered the advantages of the five major professions again, he could roughly guess something. When humans swept through the Ten Thousand Scale Race, the latter was destroyed easily, so Han Fei didn’t notice this. Although they were watching the battle on the front line battlefield last time, the front line battlefield at that time had a requirement on strength. Only tens of millions of human beings went to the front line battlefield. There might be a small number of the five major professional combinations, but they didn’t notice it. But this time, too many people came to the war between the human race and the City of Origin. The various battlefields were divided, and some powerful combinations showed their strength, especially the strength of the five major professions. Han Fei took a deep breath. “Xiaobai, are those combinations from the Yin-Yang World?” Luo Xiaobai said, “I don’t know. But ever since the Yin-Yang World entered the Raging Sea, in the Thirty-Six Mystic Worlds, although there were still five major professional combinations, they mostly focused on the development of individuals. I had some doubts at the time, but then I found that the members of the former five major professional combinations had different cultivation talents, so the level gap between them would widen. In this way, the five major professional combinations naturally disappeared.” Han Fei nodded slightly. “Besides, the Raging Sea back then didn’t have the battle layout like the Yin-Yang World did. They didn’t have a fixed battle venue. When they went out to explore or fight sea demons, once someone in the team died, the team would be disbanded. But this isn’t the most important thing. The problem is in the Explorer realm, which is the Dao Seeking realm. In this realm, everyone finds their own path, so it’s very easy for the team to disband. This includes us back then. Because Xia Xiaochan was gone and we sought our own development, our team was actually disbanded.” Luo Xiaobai said, “It’s not that the combinations can’t be disbanded, but that they can’t be reassembled after they’re disbanded. The five major profession combinations are fighting combinations. They need wars, battlefields, and long-term enemies. Only in this way can the long-term existence of the combinations be maintained. As it is now, the five major profession combinations have shown extraordinary combat power. Therefore, it’s not that the human race is weak, but that we haven’t found a way to rise.” Han Fei nodded heavily. At this moment, Han Fei couldn’t help but remember that Old Han and the others had said that the human race was a race that had declined many times but still could rise again in history. At that time, Han Fei thought that the rise of the human race was because of its population. Just like weeds, as long as the weeds’ roots were not removed, they would grow back. But from the looks of it, that didn’t seem to be the case. The human race could rise repeatedly not purely because of population, but because they had their own way of rising on the basis of population. Humans were one of the six innate lineages. All the races in the Infinite Ocean would awaken Companion Spirits, while humans would awaken spiritual beasts. In the past, Han Fei felt that Companion Spirits and spiritual beasts were just different titles for the same things. This was because other than the different names, there didn’t seem to be any difference. But now, Han Fei had doubts about this. Spiritual beasts would probably show the professional talent of this person.
