Chapter 755: The End of the Battle

With a low shout, Sun Xiaowu and all his clones jumped up into the air, performing exactly the same action. Golden light flashed from their arms and illuminated the sky.

"[Goldenscale Palm: Qilin]!" The entire sky was covered in golden radiance. Thousands of clones merged into Sun Xiaowu's main body, and the countless activated copies of the technique merged into one.

Golden scales covered up Sun Xiaowu's arm as it grew thicker and thicker, and the image of a golden qilin appeared behind him.

As Sun Xiaowu punched forward, a golden qilin materialized out of nowhere and rushed toward the invaders.

The entire battlefield shook. The wall trembled violently, as though its very foundations were shaking. The attack struck like a nuclear warhead, sending the golden light flaring up for thousands of meters, so bright that it felt as though the sun had fallen to the ground.

Many on the battlefield couldn't even open their eyes, overwhelmed by the sheer brightness. The aliens who had dared to invade the human homeworld, stunned by the attack, all dropped their weapons and surrendered.

Over on his own battlefield, Li Feng was likewise putting up an excellent show.

"[Dance of the Incandescent Wyrm]!" Li Feng summoned dozens of serpents, flaring with blinding light. They swept across the battlefield, destroying whatever invader they came across—not a fight at all, but rather a one-sided slaughter.

"[Light Dragon's Remnants]!" Li Feng marshaled his genetic energy into the form of a large number of white dragons, which he sent flying at the invaders, who were unable to respond adequately to the attack.

Initially, the invades had had the numerical advantage, and the humans and draconians were forced into the defensive, but with Li Feng's appearance, the flow of the battle began to shift.

The invaders were completely suppressed and forced to fall back, and the weaker among them had fallen prey entirely to the arclight dragons.

The invaders regretted their actions immensely. If they had known that there were humans of this caliber on the battlefield, they wouldn't have come—they didn't want to die!

Sensing an opportunity, Li Feng raised the sword in his hands high into the air and launched another attack.

"[Birth of the Holy Dragon]!" A light dragon descended from the heavens like a beacon of shining light. Li Feng leapt up to the head of the dragon, his sword gleaming brightly as though it had been dipped in liquid light. As he raised the sword to the skies, it glowed and expanded, morphing into a huge blade of light.

A dragon of light flew over the entire battlefield. Li Feng swung down and cleaved the sky, tearing apart the night and slashing at the veil of chaos. As the strike landed, an explosion of white light erupted from around Li Feng, annihilating the invaders.

If Zhang Lie were around, he would have been elated to see Li Feng's rapid improvement in strength.

The humans and draconians cheered.

An outburst of green light shielded Zhou Ying. Her hair grew long enough to reach her legs, turning into a green the color of sparkling jade. She looked so beautiful that the members of Team Zenith were immediately enraptured.

The vitality radiating from her was visible to the naked eye. She seemed to have become one with the land. An aura of vitality filled the battlefield. The injured humans and draconians found their wounds healing at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Zhou Ying made her move.

"[Avatar of the Fae: Earthbound Prison]!" As she released all her stored energy, the ground began to quake. Thousands of jade-green wood dragons rushed out of the earth like trains roaring out of the ground.

Giant vines broke through the earth.

The invaders tried to muster a resistance against this field-wide attack, but the dragons continuously poured out from deep underground like soldiers in Zhou Ying's command.

The humans and draconians cheered in triumph. They rushed onto the battlefield and slew the foes trapped by Zhou Ying's vines, which tangled up and wrapped around the inavders, absorbing their life force and sprouting boughs, branches, and leaves.

The trees grew over the captured invaders, leaving an imprint of their horrified faces in the bark. Even more frighteningly, the vines didn't stop at absorbing the live invaders' energy; they absorbed the corpses littering the ground, too.

The vines pierced the corpses and quickly absorbed the remaining blood and vital energy from their bodies, shrinking and desiccating them.

In a matter of moments, the ground, which had just been littered with corpses, became a lush, verdant forest.

However, none of the fighters found this greenery at all comforting; it was instead a source of fear. The forest had grown out of existence from the lifeforce of the living and the dead.

As Zhou Ying extended her control to the trees, their leaves began to rustle. They transformed into sharp blades that scoured the land, a storm of green leaves that quickly turned bloody as it struck the invaders. The humans and draconians watched with wide eyes as the invaders fell by the dozen.

The humans and draconians were very much relieved that Zhou Ying was on their side. The storm of leaves avoided them all, targeting only the invaders. The leaves themselves were like a reaper's scythe, continuously harvesting the lives of the invaders. The allied forces couldn't hold back a shudder.

The woman standing on the battlefield, surrounded by green motes of light, gave off an aura of life and vitality—but she felt more like a goddess of the dead. In some sense, she was a goddess of life, but the domain of life involved both granting vitality and taking it away.

Both the humans and draconians stared at her in awe.

In one fell swoop, she had taken control of the battlefield and devastated the enemy forces, leaving behind only human and draconian corpses strewn across a forest. No invader's body was left behind.

As soon as the members of Team Zenith took to the battlefield and dealt with the invading aliens, the human homeworld's crisis was fully resolved.

Zhang Lie smiled. "In that case, I won't need to worry about the other invaders."

The wounded human warlords stepped forward and extended their hands. "Thank you for your assistance. You must be the champion of mankind, Zhang Lie—we've all heard your name! I'm one of the two human warlords of the third realm, 85th on the ranking, ah, well, 86th now."

Zhang Lie shook his hand. "I know of you. Chen Fan, right?"

Zhang Lie knew quite a bit about the human warlords. This Chen Fan hadn't become a warlord in his past life, but he was still a famed hunter in his own right. Perhaps because of Zhang Lie's presence and the butterfly effect he caused, Chen Fan had become a warlord in this life.

Chen Fan smiled in gratitude. "It's an honor that you know my name, Zhang Lie. I'm hardly anyone famous, and I was only able to advance to my current station thanks to the limit potions you developed."

Zhang Lie's eyes shone. "Right, how about the other warlord? I've always been interested in meeting Chen Ruiming. He's done so much for the good of humanity in the third realm."

Chen Ruiming had been a warlord in Zhang Lie's past life, and he was one of the hunters whom Zhang Lie deeply respected. He had been a third-realm warlord for decades, and was particularly fond of cultivating gifted hunters in the third realm. He had helped out Zhang Lie quite a few times in his past life.

Although he hadn't made much of himself in the fourth realm, he was still someone Zhang Lie remembered and heeded.

Chen Fan's face fell.

"What's the matter?" Zhang Lie asked.

Chen Fan sighed. "Warlord Chen Ruiming perished in the recent invasion in order to protect the humans and the draconians. Behemoth killed him."
