Chapter 705 A Human Tragedy

At this moment, a great war was unfolding across all the heavens. Blood rain fell from time to time, and cries of mourning and wailing could be heard everywhere as tragedies played out.

Too many powerhouses from various races had died!

Hunyuan Immortal King, Golden Crow Immortal King, Taiyi Immortal King—some withered away, others fell; the Immortal Domain was in total chaos.

Lin Fan only needed a single glance to understand many things. Cicada Ancestor was gone, having perished together with a Dark Immortal King.

This made him sigh in sorrow. He thought he had changed the fate of certain people, but in the end, the outcome was the same. How could he not be moved?

Even Second Under Heaven and the Zodiac Immortal Gold Daoist, those two eccentric old men, were heavily injured and in death-seclusion.

“Why do I not see the Dark Willow Deity?” Lin Fan asked, his voice transmitting toward the Immortal Domain.

“We don't know. The Dark Willow Deity was besieged by Fallen Kings and disappeared during the most brutal battle. She may have fallen!”

A moment later, someone answered. It was Ning Fei, covered in blood. He was already an Immortal King now, far surpassing the previous generation.

However, he was currently heavily injured. The Immortal Slaying Gourd in his hand was covered in cracks, as if it might explode at any moment.

One could imagine just how cruel this battle had been.

But it wasn't over yet. Bad news came from the Heavenly Horned Ant's side: Cao Yusheng and the Big Black Dog had died again.

Initially, these two unscrupulous fellows had been crippled over a million years ago, and Lin Fan had later buried them in the Burial Land, hoping for their resurrection.

Unexpectedly, not long after their Primordial Spirits were reborn, they died once more. Their souls flew away and their spirits scattered, leaving only mangled remains.

Upon hearing this, Lin Fan didn't even know what to say. These two wicked fellows truly had a 'predestined affinity' with graves.

They were either on the way to rob a grave or lying in one themselves as corpses.

“Roar!”

However, Shi Hao could not hold back. He was roaring in grief; both the Dark Willow Deity and Cao Yusheng were very important to him.

Lin Fan was also moved, a surge of anger rising in his heart.

Although he knew the true Willow Deity was still there, he had spent many years with the Dark Willow Deity and had developed feelings for her as well.

And then there was the Big Black Dog, the Cicada Ancestor…

Humans are not plants or stones. Even at his Realm, how could he truly be devoid of emotion?

“Kill!”

In the Boundary Sea, the battle grew increasingly fierce. Lin Fan and Shi Hao went berserk, fighting desperately against the four Quasi-Immortal Emperors to stop them from crossing the dam.

Otherwise, a single strike at this level would annihilate heaven and earth. What living beings would be left?

Even so, despite the two of them putting forth every effort to stop them and fighting at the edge of the Boundary Sea for over a thousand years, the situation in the Immortal Domain remained tragic.

Even support from the Burial Land was useless!

Because the army descending from that Guidance Ancient Palace was too vast, and the dark aura was so dense it could corrode all living things.

“Charge! Kill these executioners!”

Suddenly, someone shouted. An army had assembled there, forming a massive formation that was exceptionally unique.

Lin Fan and Shi Hao frowned and took notice. Ning Fei, the Heavenly Horned Ant, and even Meng Tianzheng and others were in that area.

At the same time, several great banners fluttered, inscribed with the eye-catching words 'Holy Emperor Palace' and 'Heavenly Court'.

Undoubtedly, these were the orthodoxies established by Lin Fan and Shi Hao, respectively.

Now that they were united and charging out together, they truly formed a formidable army, instantly alleviating the crisis in the Immortal Domain.

“Who allowed you to come out?” Lin Fan questioned, his face showing displeasure, his gaze mostly fixed on a young woman at the center of the army.

Lin Cherish!

“Father, we also want to do our part to help everyone!” Lin Cherish replied, her voice pleasant but her gaze firm.

It is said that a tiger father does not have a dog for a son. Although Lin Cherish was female, she was peerless in her generation. She was already an Immortal King, engaged in slaughtering Fallen Kings.

Furthermore, she was accompanied by a young man who was also an Immortal King, acting as her protector. He bore a slight resemblance to Shi Hao.

Undoubtedly, this was Shi Hao's son, Little Stone!

However, in Lin Fan's eyes, it looked very much like his 'little cabbage' had been spirited away by a 'blonde-haired punk'.

The most important thing was that he had only just found out!

Shi Hao also saw this and felt a wave of embarrassment. He couldn't exactly say, 'I'm the one who taught him that,' could he?

Of course, now was not the time to bicker over this. The war spanned the heavens, the fires of battle burned without end, and everyone was struggling to save themselves.

Otherwise, Lin Fan would have definitely had a long talk with Shi Hao. To pull something like this right under his nose—had he forgotten who was the senior here?

“Clang!”

In the Immortal Domain, behind the two young kings, the vast army followed. Some formed the Immortal Slaying Sword Formation, their immortal might overwhelming the world.

The formation chart in particular was extraordinary. Once unfurled, it became a world of Sword Qi, its killing intent startling the ages!

With a crashing sound, that section of the fallen army was wiped out like dumplings being dropped into a pot, leaving everyone trembling with fear!

The World-Ending Old Man, Emperor Cang, and the others all took notice.

“You actually kept such a trump card. A pity you used it in the wrong place. Is it worth going to such great lengths for these ants?”

The World-Ending Old Man asked.

With his vision, it was naturally not hard to see the secret hidden within that formation chart; it contained a strike from a Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

If used well in a battle where both sides were nearly exhausted, it might have had a miraculous effect and changed the course of the war.

“There is no talk of 'worth' or 'not worth.' It's just that beasts like you would never understand!” Lin Fan replied coldly.

In truth, he didn't want his subordinates to come out, especially his daughter, to participate in this battle for fear of accidents.

But things had come to this, so there was no other choice.

Fortunately, he had the foresight to leave many good things for them to protect their lives, so they wouldn't be completely helpless.

“No matter how much you prepare, it is useless. The victory or defeat of this battle lies with us. A Quasi-Immortal Emperor is enough to change everything.”

Grand Emperor said indifferently.

“Kill our way into that world. It is time to end all things and send them on their way. Lin, Huang, your end has come!”

Feather Emperor sneered, holding the Emperor-Slaying Battle Spear. He was invincible. He didn't strike at Lin Fan or Shi Hao, but directly attacked the Immortal Domain.

The other Quasi-Immortal Emperors did the same, directly attacking that world to force the two to become distracted and hesitate for fear of collateral damage.

“Boom!”

Lin Fan and Shi Hao intercepted with all their might and were forced to take the hits directly, suffering heavy injuries. Ultimately, the four Quasi-Immortal Emperors managed to step onto the dam.

After all, forcing a way through is always easier than defending!

“Shameless!”

The two were anxious; their friends and family were there. They quickly dove down, chasing after the four emperors to intercept them.

“It's already too late. The balance has finally been broken!” Emperor Cang smiled coldly.

He opened his mouth, and black mist was sucked out of the bodies of nearby Fallen Kings, carrying traces of blood light as it entered his mouth.

“Hehe, haha—” Feather Emperor did the same, laughing arrogantly. More bloodstains appeared on his body, and his essence, energy, and spirit surged.

Grand Emperor said directly, “Back then, we bestowed diluted Emperor blood to create some commanders. Though there aren't many, it is enough to break the balance now.”

Soon, several Fallen Kings were instantly sucked dry and died. Their entire essence, energy, and spirit entered the mouths of the three emperors.

“Eh? Back then, I left a shred of sentiment and didn't let the Nine Nether Clan go extinct. To think it would be of great use today; there are still descendants remaining.”

The World-Ending Old Man showed a hint of joy.

Although he hadn't bestowed diluted Emperor blood like Emperor Cang and the others, he had descendants who remained, and they were proving useful now.

“Not good!” Lin Fan and Shi Hao were shocked.

Unfortunately, it was still too late. They couldn't stop it in time. A grey-robed man from the Immortal Domain was swallowed directly into the World-Ending Old Man's stomach.

“Wudi!” Suddenly, an old man shouted, his heart filled with extreme grief.

That was the Great Elder of Immortal Academy, Zhi Li. Yu Wudi was one of his only two Disciples. Now that he was dead, how could he not be sorrowful?

There was also Yu Wudi's Senior Brother, Little Heavenly King. Seeing this scene, he also cried out in grief and indignation.
