The reinforcements had arrived, they had eaten their meals, and nearly ten thousand people were puzzled by the motionless stone race not far away. How many hours had passed since all this began? Why weren’t these stone beings attacking?

“Ah! Are these stone people idiots? I can’t wait any longer. I’ve eaten my fill, and I’m full of energy now. If they don’t come, I’m going to charge and kill them!” Wang Dahuo, holding his wolf’s-tooth club, was getting impatient. This was like sharpening a blunt knife, why were these stone beings just standing there? He had almost digested everything he had eaten!

Clearly, the soldiers who had just eaten and were now full of energy had little patience. They were all ready to charge and fight the stone beings. At this moment, Meng Yan and a few other gods who had gone to investigate returned. He said to Ji Lan, “I didn’t see any problems. These stone beings are just standing there strangely. But as soon as we stepped into their formation, they immediately attacked us. We dragged dozens of stone beings out, but guess what, as soon as they left the formation, they remained still. We beat them all up, and they still didn’t react.”

The situation was strange. Ji Lan frowned. It was very odd that they didn’t resist even when beaten to death. But now, they couldn’t wait any longer. She spoke to her deputy, “Pass down the order. When you attack, drag the stone beings out of the formation first. Since they can’t move after crossing the boundary, no matter what the reason, we should take advantage of their weakness. We’ll kill as many as we can!”

The deputy was eager to go. He said, “Yes!”

He immediately passed the order down layer by layer. Ten minutes later, he picked up the horn around his neck and put it to his mouth. In the next moment, a long and heavy horn sounded, and nearly ten thousand soldiers immediately composed themselves and waited for the command to move out. Five thousand dragon and spirit races had never seen such a formation, but in the solemn atmosphere, they quickly understood the meaning of the horn sound. They took out their weapons and waited for the command to attack.

Ji Lan turned to face the ten thousand soldiers, raised her right hand high, and shouted, “For the Three Thousand Worlds, charge!”

“Charge!”

Ten thousand soldiers rushed toward the stone beings with an imposing manner like a released flood.

Intense battles also erupted at the other five fleets in the spatial rift. With the support of the dragon and spirit races, the military’s combat power had greatly increased. The stone beings fell like real stones, one after another. The uninjured casualties watched the scene on the battlefield and couldn’t help but be excited.

“Kill them all! Crush all the stone beings into powder!”

“Hahaha, great! More, come again! The more stone beings die, the better!”

“Brothers, do you see this? We’ve avenged you! These countless stone being corpses will accompany you to your rest!”

“Hahaha, this time, I want to see how the stone beings can invade again. What we couldn’t do decades ago, we will accomplish today. We will exterminate the stone beings!”

“Kill, kill, kill! Don’t stop! Wipe them all out in one go!”

“The dragon and spirit races are amazing! With them here, even if ten times as many stone beings come, we can still wipe them out! Ahahaha!”

…..

Unlike the optimism of these uninjured soldiers, the six fleet commanders on the battlefield looked solemnly at the scene. If the giant stone beings still existed, it wouldn’t be long before they appeared.

On the fleet where Ji Lan was located –

“Big Brother Wang, take a rest in the inner circle, I’ll take over!”

“Okay!”

There was no time for hesitation on the battlefield. Wang Dahuo agreed without any hesitation. In the next moment, he swapped positions with a soldier who was originally in the inner circle. The two of them had a tacit understanding, one stepping back while the other moved forward, perfectly smashing the stone beings that charged at them. By now, they had penetrated the central part of the stone beings’ formation and were under attack from stone beings on all sides.

“Hahaha,” Wang Dahuo took out a tomato and swallowed it in two or three bites, “This is amazing!”

Standing in the inner circle, Wang Dahuo adjusted his body state while checking and filling the gaps in the outer circle. They couldn’t let the stone beings sneak into the inner circle and harm their comrades from behind.

While protecting their comrades from behind, Wang Dahuo, who was adjusting his state, suddenly felt the ground beneath him tremble. He looked down and saw that under his feet was a pile of stone powder left behind by the dead stone beings. It was as if these stone powders, even in the absence of land, were gathering under their feet, forming a solid ground. This greatly facilitated their movements. Moreover, due to the large number of stone beings killed, these stone powders had piled up to nearly half a meter in height, and stepping on them felt no different from stepping on solid ground.

But at this moment, these powders were trembling slightly. Wang Dahuo carefully observed and noticed that every piece of stone and every speck of dust seemed to be trembling independently. What was going on?

Wang Dahuo lifted his foot and stomped hard. However, he stepped on nothing. The half-meter-high pile of stone powder that had been under his feet moved like a tide, surging in one direction. His line of sight immediately followed.

However, there were numerous stone beings, and all Wang Dahuo saw was a fleeting stream of stone fragments that were soon blocked from view by layers of stone beings.

“Big Brother Wang, what’s going on? Why is the ground moving beneath my feet?”

Those fighting in the outer circle had also noticed something was amiss. Wang Dahuo quickly responded, “The pile of rubble beneath our feet is moving on its own. Everyone, hold your positions!”

“What do you mean by ‘moving on its own’?” a soldier asked while slicing a stone being in half with his sword. During the pause, he shouted the question.

Wang Dahuo replied, “Literally what it sounds like – they’re moving on their own. Let me take another look, and everyone, maintain formation!”

With a swing of his staff, he sent a stone being attempting to enter the inner circle flying. Wang Dahuo surveyed the ground beneath the warriors, and he realized it wasn’t just their pile of rubble that had moved; all the warriors’ piles of rubble were flowing in one direction!

“Where are they flowing to?” Wang Dahuo desperately tried to see, but his line of sight was completely blocked.

“Lady Ji Lan! Look at what’s happening beneath the warriors’ feet!”

Ji Lan had already noticed that the seemingly lifeless piles of stone dust were moving on their own, winding like snakes from beneath the feet of the ten thousand warriors toward the rear of the stone beings’ army. Could it be—

“Oh my, Wang Dahuo, what’s that over there?!”

Wang Dahuo struck down a stone being and then turned to look. In the next instant, his eyes widened in shock as he witnessed a breathtaking scene not far away. Countless fragments of stone dust were snaking upward from the ground like giant pythons, intertwining and continuously flowing upward. Something familiar was beginning to appear in his vision – feet, thighs, waist, chest, neck, head…

“I, I, I can’t believe it, those are stone beings! The crushed stone has formed into stone beings! Enormous stone beings!!”

Wang Dahuo let out a heart-rending roar, and the enormous movement caused by the appearance of the colossal stone beings drew the attention of all the soldiers. In the next instant, everyone stopped in their tracks, and countless stone beings also froze. They turned to face the massive stone beings, and the stone blocks that composed their bodies crumbled into dust, merging into the body of the colossal stone beings like streams flowing into the sea.

Meanwhile, next to the colossal stone beings, one, two, three… one after another, they rose from the ground. As the first colossal stone being completed its form, it raised its arm and let out a thunderous roar toward the position of the Three Thousand Worlds’ warriors: “Roar—”

Under this mighty roar, innumerable soldiers knelt on the ground. This was the first time they had heard the stone beings produce sound, and likely the last. In the presence of these colossal stone beings that resembled mountains, they couldn’t muster the slightest courage to resist.

Ji Lan took the horn from her adjutant’s neck and blew it forcefully, infusing it with the power of the divine race. The retreat signal echoed through the battlefield, and her voice resounded in the ears of every warrior: “Retreat! Retreat! Everyone, fall back! The next battlefield is for the divine race!”

Indeed, only the divine race had the power to fight the colossal stone beings. However, that was when they were dealing with a single colossal stone being. Now, dozens of colossal stone beings had appeared on the battlefield before them, and even the divine race—

Ji Lan took up her own massive silver spear from the weapon rack at the bow of the ship. Her eyes reflected the distant giant figures, and a burning determination glowed within her. This weapon was the result of her dedicated training to face the colossal stone beings. Today, it would face its first battle!

Five hundred divine beings behind her also took out their weapons, their expressions solemn as they gazed into the distance. They all understood the power of their opponents and the impending life-or-death battle. But they weren’t afraid; in the bloodline of the divine race, the concept of retreat did not exist!

The same scene played out on the other five battlefields. Meng Lan, Ji Ce, Ji Yue, Ji Tong, Ji Wu Feng, and the five hundred divine beings distributed across the five battlefields stood face to face with hundreds of colossal divine beings. This battle was about to begin.

…..

At this moment, in the Feng Family of the divine race, Lin rushed into the study. For the first time, a look of panic appeared on his face. “Family Head! Divine beings have appeared on all five battlefields! Dozens of divine beings have appeared on each battlefield. Five hundred divine beings are not enough! Each battlefield is requesting support!”

“Immediately have the divine beings stationed at the entrance of the spatial rift enter the rift for reinforcement. Have them bypass the Orc World and gather divine beings from various races who are above the age of twenty and distribute them to each battlefield. This is a battle to the death, and the divine race must mobilize its entire force!”

“Mobilize the entire force?” Lin was shocked. “After mobilizing the entire force, what about the old and young of the divine race?”

With an indifferent look, Feng Ye gazed at him. “As long as the stone beings exist, we survive. If the stone beings are still there, then we shall perish together. The Three Thousand Worlds are on the brink of destruction. Who could possibly survive?”

After saying this, Feng Ye walked briskly towards the exit. With a terrified expression, Lin grabbed him and asked, “Family Head, where are you going?”

Feng Ye glanced at him indifferently. “Naturally, to the battlefield. Didn’t you hear me say that the divine race must mobilize its entire force?”

Wide-eyed, Lin stammered, “But, but you’re the Family Head!”

Ignoring him, Feng Ye simply said, “Hurry and relay the orders. Our time is running out.”

“Yes, yes!” Lin realized that, indeed, even the Family Head had to fight when the Three Thousand Worlds were about to fall.

Watching Feng Ye depart again, Lin’s eyes became slightly moist. The Family Head he had looked up to since childhood, this separation might be permanent…

Wiping his eyes, Lin walked solemnly toward the inner courtyard. He had to deliver the Family Head’s orders!
