This was the third encounter between the Immortal Road, Esoteric Buddhism, Newborn Road, and the Hunting Civilization, and it was also the final showdown, bringing the destined battle to a close.
A large-scale conflict, how could there not be casualties?
It’s needless to speak of cultivators from the lower and middle ranks; even several Great Grandmasters died in battle.
Seven Grandmaster Level figures of the Sixth Realm were seriously injured, and during the initial clash, both sides fought fiercely.
As for the bloody battle towards the end, the outco was already determined, and it gradually showed a one-sided trend.
"What, a Grandmaster has died?" In the desert, the crowd was in an uproar.
Even in an overwhelming advantage, significant figures perished.
Soone spoke up, "An Esoteric Buddhist Grandmaster has passed away, not due to combat."
"Ah, what exactly happened?" Many couldn’t remain calm; this was no trivial matter.
"He was of old age, with not much lifespan left, and he ca here specially to complete this fateful battle." An old man sighed, contemplating his own life as he was also entering his twilight years.
The deceased Esoteric Buddhist Old Ancestor Master died peacefully in his old age, closing his eyes only after witnessing the last Sixth Realm expert of the Hunting Civilization fall.
"Four hundred and fifty years ago, he was already an Ancestor Master, pursuing the Hunting Civilization to the endless frozen north, but unfortunately unfinished."
Especially, later on, that group of Old Ancestor Masters hurried to the Shenshang Plain to battle the Demon Civilization, fighting continuously, nearly exhausting a generation.
This surviving Esoteric Buddhist Old Ancestor Master carried a burden in his heart; had it not been for two major battles in a row, his old brothers wouldn’t have all perished in battle.
He wanted to witness the complete obliteration of a sworn enemy, so he followed them this ti.
"This Old Ancestor Master passed peacefully, indulging in one last strike before passing; soone delivered a dying leader of the Hunters for him to finish."
The originally solemn atmosphere instantly beca calm and soothing.
But the so-called easing was only relative; after all, there were bloodstains everywhere and corpses all around.
Not long after, the sound of sobbing could be heard. So lost their fathers or brothers to war, others lost elders from their sects, and so lost their companions.
Even in victory, it was so; one can only imagine the breathtaking and fierce battles of those difficult tis.
Later, many in the desert busied themselves, burning what needed to be burned, burying what needed to be buried, and many powerful Hunters’ corpses were delivered before the thirty-six Divine Stakes.
People were horrified; was this not over yet? They even intended to blood sacrifice this Big Killer.
"Since the person in the tomb has been disturbed, we must speak with that Earth Immortal." Soone in the upper echelon said.
Indeed, this was an Immortal Tomb, but the main mausoleum sealed a living being, an Earth Immortal!
Moreover, in other companion tombs, there indeed were Corpse Immortals.
An Ancestor Master spoke, "The scenes you saw earlier were not all false. If we forcibly open the big tomb, so things might actually happen."
Imdiately, everyone felt a jolt in their hearts.
An Ancestor Master reassured the crowd, saying, "It’s not that bad; we won’t be completely wiped out, but it will indeed be hard."
People looked at the misty big tombs, feeling a chill down their backs. Just this dead land alone could heavily injure Grandmasters across several paths.
"Count the decapitations, reward the rits!" Finally, a Great Grandmaster spoke.
As for the Ancestor Masters, they wouldn’t concern themselves with such specific and tedious matters.
Instantly, the oppressive atmosphere was lifted, and many young people were thrilled, waiting to cash in on their combat rits to further enhance their strength.
In this era of Great Exploration, nothing is more reassuring than power in one’s own hands.
The area beca lively.
Wu Yaizu said, "Brother Ming, are you alright? It was truly dangerous at the last mont; a group of old folks all rushed towards you. Luckily, your Thunder King Bird flew fast enough. Hmm, I saw Brother Jin Xiang and Fairy Li heading your way."
Qin Ming’s broken rib was already rejoined; he massaged his head and said, "A couple of days of rest should be fine."
A broken bone injury was nothing; at the last mont, the explosion of the Rune Big Bell impacted him greatly; in another’s Spiritual Field, it might have collapsed.
His consciousness fused with Heavenly Light; though his body was thrown by the bell wave and took significant damage, a few days of rest would be sufficient.
Relative to him, the Thunder King Bird was more severely injured.
Qin Ming found the Golden Two-headed Wolf and Fire Lizard, offering them as Blood al; even though their Mysterious Blood Essence was gouged out, the remaining flesh was still a great supplent.
"I was almost burst by a punch from an old monkey," Xiang Yiwu shuddered in fear; during the final confrontation, the Hunters went mad.
"Qin Ming, killed one hundred and fifty-eight enemies, among them ninety-three Second Realm Hunters, early stage of the Third Realm Hunters..."
When counting combat rits, all the surrounding people were shocked and widened their eyes; this young man single-handedly had so many decapitations?
The key was, in the Second Realm, he killed so many Third Realm Hunters.
"Every strike, both man and mount were slain!" Soone supplented.
This way, his combat rits were even more valuable.
"He slew several seeds!"
Undoubtedly, killing seed-level figures added several splendid halos to his combat rits, making it an extrely remarkable and glorious achievent.
This caused a stir!
If it’s only about the number of enemies killed, it might not be enough to earn the respect of the younger generation; however, if soone slays hunters among peers akin to "Immortal Seeds," that indeed garners so spotlight.
Other young disciples have also slain seeds of the Hunting Civilization, but none has killed as many as Qin Ming.
For a mont, whether it was Jiang Ran and Pei Shuyan from the Immortal Road, Zhao Qingcheng and Cheng Cheng from the Esoteric Buddhism, or the young nobles of the Three Great Dynasties, all looked towards him.
Many people felt that this guy was wild and fierce, as among the seeds he killed, there were actually two at the early stage of the Third Realm, which is truly frightening upon careful thought.
Li Qingyue stood together with Jiang Ran and Zhao Qingcheng, smiling slightly; she alone understood that Qin Ming had not yet been forced to unleash his full power in this battle.
Even so, many people unanimously believe that hundreds of years later, should Qin Ming beco an Ancestor Master along the Newborn Road, he would definitely be soone who could single-handedly shake the Divine.
"In the future, he might stand unrivaled among Ancestor Masters, alone able to slay the Immortals of the Seventh Realm!" This is naturally a very high praise.
Such brilliant battle achievents by Qin Ming naturally drew many unusual glances.
Helian ZhaoYu witnessed this scene and suddenly felt oppressed in his chest, as he had nearly been killed by a mad old rhinoceros, significantly diminishing his own achievents.
In the distance, Wei Cheng had an unpleasant expression, his number of decapitations not even a third of Qin Ming’s.
"His battle achievents are virtually absurd; he can definitely be ranked at the forefront among his peers!" said Cui Family’s elder, Cui Changqing, his expression very serious.
Many are already aware that Qin Ming is the "discarded child" of the Cui Family; the more extraordinary he performs now, the more uneasy they beco.
"It’s a pity, amongst the hunters, the seeds at the sa realm as are few, otherwise my gains would be far greater than they are now," Cui Chonghe responded calmly.
Cui Changqing said, "Have you considered a scenario where he just acquired two legendary Sacred Evils; if he collects all the Four Symbols Sacred Slaughter, his combat power will rise another notch."
Cui Chonghe’s expression was indifferent as he said, "When I ntioned leveling the playing field for a battle, I naturally considered this. Give him ti to catch up, allow him to efficiently collect all Sacred Evils, maybe even add more; I am still not daunted. In fact, when I am high above in the clouds, overlooking the splendid mountains and rivers, he might still be lingering in the Fourth Realm."
In the distance, others were also discussing whether Qin Ming could indeed collect the legendary Four Sacred Evils and other rare Outer World Mysterious Materials to enhance himself.
Many have heard rumors: if an ancient top-tier Power Warrior could blend four types of Sacred Evils, even the masters of immortal temples would show them deference.
Qin Ming used his combat rits to exchange for necessities, and naturally asked first if there were any Vajra Fruits available?
"Hmm, it’s ready for you." An elder took out a fruit radiating golden light, the size of a fist, with a fragrant aroma, enticingly sweet and appealing.
However, Qin Ming was montarily stunned because it was half light gold and the other half still had a green glow, not fully ripe.
The elder explained, "This is the only Vajra Fruit available for exchange, sufficient for your use; others need to be reserved for high-level cultivators for alchemy."
Yu Gen Sheng appeared and nodded towards Qin Ming, noting that mature fruits are shared among three paths, and the Vajra dicine refined is usable even for experts in the Fourth Realm.
"Your combat rits are certainly not exhausted by rely exchanging Vajra Fruits; do you need other treasures or scriptures?"
Qin Ming replied, "Is there the ’Fighting Immortal Scripture’? If not, the ’Golden Crow Illuminating Night Scripture’ or ’Yingxu Scripture’ is fine; I want to exchange for a Secret Scripture."
Many were speechless; he indeed dared to speak up.
This master of the Immortal Road said without expression, "In that case, the combat rits are insufficient, and accumulation is needed, plus so Secret Scriptures cannot be exchanged."
Qin Ming asked, "Then please tell , if enough combat rits are gathered, which Secret Scripture can be exchanged based on rit?"
The elder inford him, "’Golden Crow Illuminating Night Scripture’ is not complete when excavated, and the upper volu of ’Yingxu Scripture’ can be exchanged."
"Can I see the original?" Qin Ming asked.
"Needs coordination," the elder said.
Qin Ming thought that if he could see the original, then everything wouldn’t be a problem.
He didn’t exhaust more combat rits, eyeing the ’Golden Crow Illuminating Night Scripture,’ saving it for future exchange because this scripture, across the Newborn Road’s sect ancestral courts, has only a few transcribed fragnts. However, he needs to resonate with the original True Scripture.
In the evening, at the forr site of the Sun Elf Clan, the Mountain City was no longer present, with Fire Spring flowing through the woods, the night dim and blurred.
Qin Ming, Wu Yaizu, Xiang Yiwu, and Li Qingyue were enjoying a hot pot of flood dragon at, feeling warm currents surging throughout their bodies, indeed a great tonic.
Not long after, Yu Gen Sheng also arrived, without politeness, he picked several large chunks of flood dragon at and placed them in his bowl, praising the flavorful taste which gave even his aging body a bit of vitality.
In the distance, a massive warship rose into the sky.
"The great battle is not over!" Yu Gen Sheng stated.
Several Ancestor Masters comnced their march westward, together with the Sun Elf Clan who had set out earlier, aiming to wipe out the hunters’ old nest, where their elite had been lost, leaving them vulnerable.
"Sweep the courts, eradicate future calamities!"
Now, people have co to know that the Sun Elf Clan has turned to the light.
Primarily, the Ancestor Masters of various paths sensed sothing amiss in advance, applying pressure to the clan, leading to their betrayal and coordination with Immortal Road, Esoteric Buddhism, and Newborn Road.
The bottom ranks of the Sun Elf Clan were completely unaware of their Sixth Realm strongn’s entanglent of resentnt with the hunters, Immortal Road, and Esoteric Buddhism, always kept in the dark.
In fact, the Grandmaster level strongn of the Sun Elf Clan inwardly did not wish to collaborate with the hunters, as those people were too ferocious and overly dangerous.
Yu Gen Sheng added, "For those uninjured in the battle, after exchanging rewards using combat rits and taking a brief rest, tonight a party will embark on the return journey to Shenshang Plain."
Suddenly, the people around the flood dragon hot pot bore serious expressions.
The Ancestor Masters were admittedly worried that during the Hunting Civilization’s unrest, the old Demon Monster Civilization might also seize the opportunity to attack, which was not out of the realm of possibility.
Regarding this Immortal Tomb, the Ancestor Masters prepared to attempt communication with that Earth Immortal, not expecting any outco; perhaps everything must await the future.
Yu Gen Sheng said, "This can’t be considered a blood battle, as the Hunting Civilization this ti walked into the trap we prepared in advance. But at Shenshang Plain, its source is extrely mysterious, dangerous, and if conflict occurs, everything is unpredictable. Looking on the brighter side, maybe soone might thus beco a God, an Immortal—no, step into the Seventh Realm!"
