CHAPTER 1549 JOINT ATTACKS
This news made Darren and the others uneasy.
The land of the humans was exposed and the other races had already mobilized for their attack. The
beginning of darkness was upon them. If war broke out, whether the human race won or lost, the result
would be tragic.
Only a master like Heath would be able to stop the outbreak of war. There was at least some comfort in
that Heath and the human ancestor would be able to protect the human race if war was to ensue.
Now though, only the ancestor and some ascetic cultivators remained guarding the human land. Once
the top masters and ancestors of other races made their way here, the humans would definitely suffer a
devastating blow.
"What should we do, Starry Sword? Should we inform Heath?" Even Lord Feng was not entirely sure of
what sort of action they should take.
"No," Lord Starry Sword said flatly.
"Why not?" Darren asked confused. The human ancestor had asked them for help, why would Lord
Starry Sword not want to tell Heath about this?
"The result will be the same whether Heath gets involved or not. The trials the human race is facing are
not limited just to the attacks of the other races. What we really should be focused on holding off is the
chief gods' spiritual senses," Lord Starry Sword said in response.
"I suppose that does make sense." Lord Feng nodded and continued, "Even so, we should still let
Heath know of the ancestor's request. Let him make his own decision."
"Yes, that seems right," agreed Darren. "Heath is not just the ancestor's student but his friend as well.
If he learns of this, it may affect his judgment and then he'll definitely decide to come back. But that's
not the best option. If we stay here to help Darren go through the tribulation, the human race may yet
survive, however slim the chance might be. This is our best option," Lord Starry Sword explained.
Both Lord Feng and the Great Witcher thought this seemed a reasonable approach.
As things stood, the human race's crisis could only be solved if Darren successfully survived the
tribulation. The reason was quite simple. If Darren could survive, it would mean he must have found a Content is © 2024 .
way to avoid detection by the chief gods, and they would be unable to locate the real human land
through their spiritual senses.
"Perhaps it is best if we do not tell Heath. After all, the situation is not optimistic here."
Lord Feng raised his head. Deep in the sky, thousands of projections of the Killing Chief God were
already fighting the ascetic cultivators. A war like none before was taking place.
"Damn it! One of the projections is coming over!"
They noticed a lone golden chief god's projection had fled the battlefield and was making his way to
where Darren and the others stood.
He growled with rage,
his dark gold eyes cold as ice.
He charged over with Darren set in his sights.
"Humph, does he seriously wish to insult us like this?"
Lord Feng snorted with derision and thrust his spear out.
Boom!
The violent spear intent collided with the chief god's projection, and they were soon locked in the heat
of battle, exchanging tens of thousands of blows in a matter of split seconds. The destroyed space
began vanishing under the god's power's pressure, turning into nothingness.
They had been fighting for a quarter of an hour now. Although Lord Feng was indeed powerful, he was
still only a middle-level deputy god. It was not long before he was injured and defeated.
"Blood Killing Abyss," murmured the chief god's projection menacingly.
Killing intents spread out and instantly wrapped around Darren and the others.
Whoosh!
As soon as Lord Starry Sword brandished his sword, seventy-two Supreme Sword Intent Forms
performed exquisitely perfect sword maneuvers and darted at the chief god's projection.
At the same time, Lord Starry Sword vanished.
Countless swords were floating in the void. The enormous power radiating was comparable to the
Blood Killing Abyss released by the chief god's projection.
"Finley, now!" Lord Starry Sword shouted in a rage.
Boom!
Boom!
The swords and spears clanged at the same time, instantly surrounding the chief god's projection. The
violent explosion that resulted was deafening, but the miserable screams of anguish could still be
heard.
"Huh!" Darren was a little surprised. The cooperation between Lord Starry Sword and Lord Feng was
incredible, a true wonder. Their combined fighting power was on par with that of a powerful ascetic
cultivator.
The chief god's projection could no longer attack Darren now that he faced the barrage of Lord Feng
and Lord Starry Sword's attacks.
"Allow me to help."
Darren had been observing and found that they had weakened the chief god's projection. He felt he
was now able to join the battle.
Whoosh!
Darren charged and the dark gold god's power attacked at a speed difficult to clock with the naked eye.
Bang!
His god's power struck the chief god's projection, leaving a deep slash across his chest.
"Ah!" the chief god's projection yelped.
He was furious. He had been injured by a mere Defiant Master! This was disgusting and unforgivable.
The chief god's projection gathered all the strength he had and wrenched free from assault, breaking
through Lord Feng's and Lord Starry Sword's attacks. He seemed desperate and crazed to kill Darren
no matter what.
"Well then, come get me!" Darren sneered.
Provoking the chief god's projection was exactly what he needed to do. Doing this would not only help
him improve his cultivation, it would also distract the chief god's projection, so that Lord Feng and Lord
Starry Sword could focus on dealing the lethal blow. This was a more sure-fire way of killing the chief
god's projection faster.
The trade-off, however, was that Darren had to be very careful, or he would get hit and he would be the
one to die.
Whoosh!
He could not allow the chief god's projection even the slightest chance. He disappeared and
reappeared behind Lord Starry Sword and Lord Feng the next moment.
"Darren, I see you're smart enough to use us as a shield," Lord Feng remarked smiling.
"You are much stronger than I am, after all," Darren replied with a relaxed grin. He didn't seem too
concerned with the danger.
The projection's attack was blocked, which only made him more furious. His huge golden palms swung
around wildly, more terrifying than a mad beast in the Chaotic Age.
"Darren, fight together with us!"
"Got it!"
"The Eternal Firmament!"
Lord Starry Sword and Lord Feng finally launched their strongest joint attack.
The sword and spear seemed to have fused into one, with the attached god's power a kind of pale
yellow that he had never seen before.
At the same time, Darren added all his strength to the fight. The dark gold god's power, the ice and fire
god's power and the black god's power all mixed together. He attacked quickly with the perfect
connection fighting method.
This was Darren's most formidable attack.
The chief god's projection roared with a hint of fear.
Darren's attacks were more than he could bear.
But Darren wouldn't give the projection the chance to dodge. Darren pushed harder and focused more.
His attack was truly swift now.
Crack!
The projection's head cracked, and a blood red crystal was flung from it. A faint chief god's spiritual
sense emitted from the crystal and attached to the chief god's projection.
The projection's terrifying aura suddenly increased by nearly half.
His large golden palms extended towards Darren and the others in front of him.
Their three attacks clashed with the big palms of the chief god's projection.
The world seemed to go quiet as they collided.
The dazzling light that beamed off obscured everything as three figures were shoved away by violent
waves of god's power. They looked like small boats being tossed around by massive waves. They
seemed so fragile.
The projection's body was covered in cracks that ran all across his body, created by the force of several
extremely powerful god's power. Dark gold light began streaming from each crack.
Boom! Boom!
The chief god's projection exploded into nothingness.
