Chapter 638 - 292: Reversal, My Turn

The fierce battle continued, and the flames of war spread.

The entire battlefield in the Land of the Far North had turned into a colossal meat grinder, crushing and grinding everything within, becoming a part of this world.

As time moved on, a quarter of the first line of defense’s array had completely shut down, and the rest were teetering on the brink of collapse; it’s only a matter of time.

On the second line of defense, large areas of blank space were appearing in combat zones.

The cultivators were dying incessantly; despite a massive influx of reinforcements, it was still woefully inadequate.

This was a war of complete power disparity.

A crushing defeat stemming from sheer strength.

A Split Creature can’t defeat a cultivator of the same rank, but what about three? Ten? Even one hundred?

Lu Wenwu once again severed a claw of the True Demon Mother Insect, pierced through its other mouthparts, expanding the battle achievements to a level that can be called glorious.

But it was still not enough, far from enough!

His rate of losing blood wasn’t fast enough, still not fast enough!

Lu Wenwu suppressed all his emotions deep within his heart, transforming them into the force for his punches, unleashing them one after another.

At this moment, within the kill squad, half of the members had fallen.

The remaining ones were desperately defending a small area, with many Split Creatures breaking through to encircle the four of them.

Blood River Demon Venerable, knowing his power was inferior for attacking the True Demon Mother Insect, simply transformed into a Blood River once more, standing alone against the gap in the decisive battle area.

Rolling Demon Qi surged, and Yin Wind howled fiercely on the battlefield.

"Bang!"

A sudden crisp sound appeared, transforming into countless emerald light points sprinkling on the earth.

The Jade Brush left by Saint Venerable Heng Ru ultimately shattered.

Immortals and mortals are separated, the rank barrier is like a Celestial Chasm, not something easily crossed.

"You bug! You’re forcing me!"

The Blood River Demon Venerable, eyes red with fury, nearly went mad, suddenly exploding, then reforming at the center.

As he reappeared, he had completely transformed into a monster forged of fresh blood.

A Ten Thousand Souls Umbrella, refined from a million souls, suddenly opened above his head, spinning furiously counterclockwise.

The raging storm swept through the battlefield once again, an even more spectacular soul vortex than before.

The souls of the fallen cultivators and demon beasts on the battlefield were completely absorbed, manifesting one by one in the air as twisted and agonized faces.

"Come on! Come on!"

The Blood River Demon Venerable shouted furiously. The Ten Thousand Souls Umbrella paused abruptly after spinning to the limit, then suddenly rotated in the direction of the clock.

The soul vortex previously absorbed reversed; those souls, numbered at least in the tens of millions, poured towards the blood giant formed by Blood River Demon Venerable, successively vanishing within.

His body grew larger and stronger during this process!

He actually relied on the Lifebound Magical Treasure, the Ten Thousand Souls Umbrella, to forcibly refine millions of souls!

That was a full ten million!

Even Lu Wenwu couldn’t withstand such powerful force, let alone the Blood River Demon Venerable!

In the history of the Cultivation Realm, no matter how talented a demonic cultivator was, no one had ever achieved this.

Blood River Demon Venerable did it!

Even if he would pay the price of his own life, he still did it.

The blood-red giant barely maintained a humanoid form, with a pair of white hollow eyes that were incredibly eerie.

He opened his mouth and roared, emitting an inhuman sound, step by step charging towards the True Demon Mother Insect.

Heavy punches rained down like raindrops, actually suppressing the opponent momentarily.

Such frenzied attacks even made the True Demon Mother Insect’s control over the Split Creature army sluggish, and the previous berserk state strangely abated a bit.

All at once, the pressure on the second line of defense considerably decreased.

The areas that were on the brink of shattering were again captured by the cultivators and demon beasts, firmly guarding the final pass leading into the world.

Infinite Sword Venerable looked at the blood-red giant, pressing his lips tightly.

As a top-tier expert in this realm, he could see at a glance that the current situation was merely a false prosperity.

Blood River Demon Venerable, ignoring his own life and risking the immediate crisis of divine retribution, unleashed a shocking incarnation, but all his efforts were ineffective output.

He had plenty of power but couldn’t break through the opponent’s defense, only temporarily suppressing them.

Can one truly remain content with this?

Those hollow white eyes showed no hint of human emotion, yet Infinite Sword Venerable still felt the indignation of the Blood River Demon Venerable from that aura.

Casually slaying the incoming enemy with a swing of his sword, his Sword Qi swept through, forcing back numerous Split Creatures, Infinite Sword Venerable gazed up again, panting heavily.

His Divine Sense scanned the Split Creatures charging forward fearlessly once more, Infinite Sword Venerable suddenly laughed aloud.

"So be it... after a lifetime of battles, today, this old man will aid you!"

"Immortal Slayer... must succeed!"

Suddenly, Infinite Sword Venerable manipulated his Lifebound Spirit Sword, driving it into his body from his Celestial Spirit, piercing deep within.

Immediately, brilliance exploded!

Blinding sword light erupted, an Unparalleled Flying Sword emitting the aura of an Immortal Artifact soared to the heavens, swelling in the wind!

When it expanded to the extreme, it was completely covered in cracks.

Each and every crack seemed to contain endless Sword Intent, as if the entire Sword Dao was encapsulated within.

The blood giant, who had nearly lost his sense, instinctively grasped the giant sword, guided by the Sword Intent within, naturally melding all his strength within, unleashing a single formidable strike.

"Boom!"

The blood giant suddenly disintegrated, its thousand-foot body collapsing into a cascade of blood.
