The central area of Winning Sand City was a wide green stone square.
In the four directions of the square, there were eight tall towers, and with the towers as the base, a defensive array was arranged.
At this moment, about 20% of the human cultivators survived, gathered in the green stone square, hiding in the interior of the defensive array, struggling to resist the siege of the savage beasts.
The cultivators who were able to survive were naturally not weak.
It was only that the successive vicious battles had consumed a large amount of their holy qi, and everyone revealed a tired demeanour, making it difficult to continue supporting them.
Dawn had already arrived, and they, who were caught in the siege of the savage beasts, could not see the dawn at all.
“Kill!”
“Break for me!”
……
Beast King level powerhouses, separated in every direction, collectively struck out, striking more than a dozen incredibly powerful Ancestral Artifacts.
Standing in the distance and looking in that direction, it was very much like there were more than a dozen bright stars that struck down on top of a layer of light shield.
“Rumble!”
The light shield condensed by the defensive formation trembled violently under the attack of more than a dozen Ancestral Weapons, emitting a circle of white ripples of holy light.
It was much like a layer of bubbles that would shatter at any moment.
Below, all the human cultivators held their breath and raised their heads, looking upwards with great nervousness.
The defence formation had finally managed to block the wave of attacks from more than ten Ancestral Weapons without shattering, only that the formation’s light shield had become transparent for a few more moments.
I wonder, how many more times can it withstand the Ancestral Weapon attacks?
All the Human Race cultivators exhaled a long breath and wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads.
Many of the Human Race cultivators were already extremely tired, having not rested for a long time, the holy qi in their bodies had been depleted to the seventy-fourth degree, and the elixirs on their bodies to replenish their qi had also been exhausted, so it was likely that all of them would die here once the defensive formation was breached.
Even the two Boundary Sons with the strongest cultivation were not as calm and relaxed as they usually were.
They were also greatly depleted.
In last night’s successive battles, the two Boundary Sons had used their strongest battle weapon, the Boundary Son Seal.
Every time they struck the Boundary Son Seal out, a large portion of the Saint Qi in their bodies would be consumed. On top of that, the two Boundary Sons also used killing moves that extremely consumed their holy qi, destroying several Beast Kings.
The golden holy light on Chi Banzai’s body had become dim, and with his long hair draped over his body and covered in dark red bloodstains, he was very much like a general who had fought in the blood-soaked sands until he lost his strength.
Bei Gong Lan also lost her sword fairy-like temperament, the white martial robe on her body appeared with a single blood-red spot, and underneath each spot was a bloody hole.
At the location of her back, there was even a blood-red claw mark that nearly pierced through her flesh.
Most of it was from the Beast King’s dying counterattack, which had inflicted heavy damage on her.
Other Half-Saints who had suffered such heavy injuries would definitely have died even if their vitality was strong.
Bei Gong Lan had a very special system, and surprisingly supported herself and did not fall.
The Heaven Swallowing Devil Dragon manifested in human form, carrying a pair of dragon arms on his back, with a pair of black dragon horns growing on his head, and vast demonic qi surged out, forming a huge vortex of cloudy qi.
He stood in mid-air and shouted at Hail Chi, saying, “Hail Chi, if you can bind your hands and be my slave, I can consider letting 10,000 human cultivators go.”
On the green stone square, there were a total of tens of thousands of human cultivators left, and when they heard the Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon’s shout, they were all quite furious.
Surprisingly, it wanted to make the human race’s boundary son, its servant.
The Heaven Swallowing Devil Dragon knew very well that even if it broke through the defensive array and was able to exterminate ninety-nine percent of the Human Race cultivators, it would definitely not be able to kill the two Boundary Sons.
They had cards that were enough to escape.
However, in the Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon’s view, not being able to capture the two Boundary Sons would be two major regrets.
One must know that the Boundary Sons were the strongest amongst the Human Race cultivators, possessing quite an illustrious status, not only were they the disciples of the Empress, but they were also the successors of the future Emperors of the Human Race.
The value of ten thousand human race heroes was not even comparable to one Boundary Son.
As long as two Sector Sons were captured, a serious blow could be dealt to the Human Race, and at the same time, back in the Kunlun Realm, the Barbarian Beasts’ clans would have enough backbone to negotiate with the Empress of the Human Race.
It would be best, to capture all nine Realm Sons.
At the same time, the Kuiyu Beast King also shouted to Bei Gong Lan, saying, “Bei Gong Lan, if, you are willing to be the king’s slave, the king can also consider letting 10,000 human cultivators leave.”
The Kui Niu Beast King stood on the ground, not far from the lapis lazuli square, his body was very much like a small green mountain, very burly, and he directly shouted at Bei Gong Lan, very much wanting to take this heavenly pride of the human race under his wing.
At the same time, the Kui Niu Beast King was also of great strength, second only to the Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon amongst the Beast Kings present.
“Put up a fight with them, the big deal is that the fish is dead.”
“Your Highnesses of the Realm, you absolutely cannot be slaves of the Beast Kings, we have no regrets even if we die in battle.”
……
The Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon shouted once again, “Isn’t your human race preaching about being able to submit? Just submitting to me for a moment, but in exchange for the lives of 10,000 human cultivators, you’re not losing out at all. In the future, it’s not certain that you’ll even be able to defeat me and break away from my control.”
Hearing these words, Chi Huan Wang clenched his fists tightly as a burning rage surged out of his heart.
He saw through the Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon’s mind, not only was he just negotiating with him, but he was also dividing the human cultivators present. After all, as long as he nodded his head once, many people would live.
But, if he didn’t submit, most of the human cultivators present would die in battle.
Who didn’t want to live?
Two tubes of green Qi gushed out from inside the nostrils of the Kui Niu Beast King, and he grunted explosively, “Obviously, you can save the lives of 20,000 Human Race cultivators, but you don’t dare to make a self-sacrifice, just based on your character, even if you succeed in escaping, you won’t be worthy of being a Human Emperor in the future?”
In the audience, there were both courageous people who were willing to die in battle alongside the two Realm Sons, and there were also some cultivators, but they remained silent, staring over towards Ji Huan Wang and Bei Gong Lan from time to time, revealing a look of anticipation.
Such silence did not remain for long.
Suddenly, in the direction of the city gates, a deafening roar was heard.
Immediately after, all the living beings in the central city area, all of them saw that a large number of savage beasts rushed over from the direction of the city gates, scrambling to be the first to run, very much like they were fleeing for their lives.
“A Ghastly Fierce Man has killed his way into the city, having already beheaded two beast kings of the Lionmount Beast Clan.”
“Lord Devil Dragon, the Gai Shi Fierce Man has come out and killed thousands of savage beasts with the power of one man, it’s impossible to resist, only you can suppress him.”
The news of the Gai Shi Fierce Man killing his way to Winning Sand City quickly caused violent shocks.
On the green stone square, all the human cultivators revealed excited looks, secretly speculating, could it be that the reinforcements from the human race had arrived?
The beast kings felt quite surprised that there were still human race powerhouses in the vicinity of Winning Sand City.
The two Beast Kings of the Lion Camel Beast Clan were not considered very strong amongst the Beast Kings, but it was not an easy task to kill them both at the same time.
Zhang Ruochen walked in the centre of one of the widest streets in Winning Sand City, stepping forward step by step with a steady pace.
Each step taken was several feet away.
At the same time, the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword flew above his head, inducing thousands of sword-shaped sword qi that swept across the four directions, and any savage beasts that tried to block his footsteps were killed with a single strike of the sword.
Along the way, on the ground, the corpses of thousands of savage beasts had been piled up.
From the beginning to the end, Zhang Ruochen, however, did not even lift a finger, just using his sword intent to manipulate the sword Qi, he killed those savage beasts to the point that they were chilled to death and fled towards the central city area.
An ordinary Paramount Saint, using the Sword Dao like him, would also have long since exhausted their Saint Qi.
However, Zhang Ruochen had laid a thick foundation at the Fourth Realm of Martial Dao, invoking the Resonance of the Gods four times in a row, and with each invocation, his Qi Sea would be ten times more expansive than other cultivators.
The four times the Gods resonated, which made Zhang Ruochen’s Qi Sea ten thousand times more expansive than other cultivators.
Although it slowed down Zhang Ruochen’s cultivation speed because of this, it allowed Zhang Ruochen to gain more enduring combat power.
The savage beasts in the centre of the city immediately arranged themselves into a formation as if they were facing a great enemy.
Gradually, Zhang Ruochen stopped his steps and looked over towards those Barbarian Beasts on the opposite side, and finally, locked his gaze on the Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon, saying, “Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon, I’ve come to make a deal with you as well. I’m going to use a savage beast in exchange for the lives of all the human cultivators.”
Alone, facing tens of thousands of Barbarian Beasts, Zhang Ruochen nevertheless still appeared to be in a clouded state, without a trace of fear.
Just that calm demeanour alone made even many beast kings show scorn, knowing that the other party must not be an idle one.
