The clang of swords suddenly echoed, and a figure flashed from the distant horizon to the battlefield in an instant. Then, a sword light swept out, splitting the beast emperor charging at the ground into two halves.
He was a middle-aged man in white ancient robes, floating in the air, his eyes filled with killing intent.
At this moment, all the beast emperors on the battlefield paused slightly, taking down one beast emperor with a single move!
"Jian Chen!" the Flood Dragon roared, its eyes filled with dread and hatred. It immediately abandoned Li Xiaotian, as the middle-aged man who had appeared was a far greater threat than Li Xiaotian.
"The Pavilion Master is here!" Jian Lin and the others shouted, their faces filled with surprise and joy.
The one who arrived was none other than the Pavilion Master of the Sword Pavilion, a peak Royal stage expert, Jian Chen!
Moreover, Jian Chen possessed an aura that felt ethereal, the kind one felt when facing a Celestial stage cultivator.
Jian Chen was on the verge of breaking through to the Celestial stage!
"Are you the little snake whose tail I severed back then? You're still alive? What's wrong with Myriad Beast Mountain? Has it declined after its resurgence? Even a small fry like you dares to wage war against my Human Race?"
Jian Chen's voice was icy, his eyes filled with disdain.
"Jian Chen!!! You're courting death!!!"
The Flood Dragon roared, Jian Chen's words striking a raw nerve. Its eyes turned scarlet as it charged directly at Jian Chen.
"Roar!"
The Flood Dragon opened its massive maw, a spectral light flashing within, emitting a terrifying devouring force.
Just as the Flood Dragon was about to swallow Jian Chen whole, Jian Chen remained unmoved, his eyes filled with contempt.
"Hum!" A sword light flashed and vanished. Immediately after, the Flood Dragon's massive body was sent flying backward.
The Flood Dragon crashed into the mountains, destroying several peaks before stabilizing itself. Its forehead was covered in blood.
Its two horns were broken!
"Ahhh! This is impossible!!! Jian Chen, how dare you break my dragon horns?!" the Flood Dragon roared, its eyes filled with shock and rage.
It was no longer the same as it was before, yet it couldn't even withstand a single move from Jian Chen. More importantly, its horns were broken!
The dragon horns, cultivated over tens of thousands of years for dragon transformation, were gone!
"Hum!" The only response was another flash of sword light. Jian Chen swung his sword, cleaving the entire battlefield and heading towards the Flood Dragon.
"Damn it!" The Flood Dragon was instantly alarmed and unleashed a terrifying aura to resist.
"Pfft!" The Flood Dragon's body was instantly split in two, blood gushing out like a waterfall.
"Roar!" The Flood Dragon cried out in pain, its eyes filled with terror at that moment.
"Retreat!" the Flood Dragon roared, not daring to look back as it fled into the depths of the mountain range. At the same time, the beast emperors on the battlefield also began to flee.
"Flee? This is Human Race territory, and you think you can come and go as you please?"
Jian Chen sneered and casually waved his long sword.
A sword light pursued the fleeing Flood Dragon, while several other sword lights flew towards the beast emperors on the battlefield.
"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!" Instantly, three beast emperors fell on the spot, crashing to the ground.
Some beast emperors managed to endure Jian Chen's attacks but were severely wounded, only able to struggle and continue their escape.
Li Xiaotian's eyes flashed as he focused on a heavily wounded beast emperor and charged forward.
"Die!" Li Xiaotian punched, his fist slamming into the head of a beast emperor.
"Roar!" The beast emperor cried out in agony and plummeted to the ground. It was dead!
"Kill!" Li Xiaotian roared. At this moment, Jian Lin and the others also sprang into action, pursuing the fleeing beast emperors.
In a short time, half of the beast emperors from Myriad Beast Mountain had perished, with Jian Chen alone killing over a dozen beast emperors with his sword!
Meanwhile, as the Flood Dragon fled into the mountains, seeing Jian Chen's sword light about to catch up, it felt an overwhelming anxiety. Suddenly, a roar echoed from the depths of Myriad Beast Mountain, and Jian Chen's sword light was instantly shattered.
Immediately after, a terrifying, primordial aura radiated outwards, causing everyone on the battlefield to feel an oppressive pressure.
"Jian Chen! Make them return, don't force us to declare war on you now!"
From the depths of Myriad Beast Mountain, a colossal dark figure vaguely appeared, its immense size obscuring the sky above.
Witnessing this, Li Xiaotian and the others were stunned. The figure was so colossal that even the Flood Dragon, hundreds of meters long, appeared insignificant as a fly in comparison.
"Silver Wolf, you've awakened. Asking them to return? Heh heh, after tasting Human Race blood, they won't be going anywhere!"
Jian Chen sneered, and an awe-inspiring sword intent erupted from him, no less powerful than the aura emanating from the Silver Wolf in the depths of Myriad Beast Mountain.
Instantly, countless sword lights flashed across the battlefield, and another five beast emperors perished on the spot, while demon beasts below the Royal stage suffered countless casualties.
"You are courting death!!!" the Silver Wolf roared from the depths of Myriad Beast Mountain. Simultaneously, two more majestic figures appeared beside it, both exuding terrifying auras.
Three beast emperors close to the Celestial stage!!!
"Jian Chen, don't force us to unleash slaughter. Let them go! Let this matter be concluded!"
A voice whispered, filled with killing intent.
"We are merely reclaiming territory that rightfully belongs to Myriad Beast Mountain, and killing some ants. You should know how many beast emperors have been slumbering in Myriad Beast Mountain. If pushed too far, we will awaken them all and initiate a full-scale war!"
The Silver Wolf growled, its aura growing increasingly terrifying. It extended its massive claw towards the battlefield, intending to rescue the demon beasts that hadn't escaped in time.
Seeing this, Jian Chen's expression turned slightly grim as a sword light shot out.
"Boom!" The massive claw extended by the Silver Wolf was instantly annihilated.
"Roar! Jian Chen, you are courting death!"
The Silver Wolf roared, and the three terrifying figures immediately broke free from the depths of Myriad Beast Mountain and charged towards the battlefield.
"This is your own doing. With the three of us overlords awakened, do you dare to stand in our way?"
"You are forcing the three of us to join forces to kill you! So be it, today, the Human Race shall lose an overlord!"
Overlords were experts on the verge of breaking through to the Celestial stage, yet still within the Royal stage. They were invincible below the Celestial stage and could contend with Celestial stage cultivators, possessing terrifying power.
At this moment, the three colossal figures drew closer, their forms eclipsing the sun and moon. Compared to their bodies, all the beings on the battlefield seemed like tiny ants.
The faces of the many humans on the battlefield changed drastically, especially the awakened martial artists, who turned ashen.
With three overlord beast emperors joining forces, and only Jian Chen on the Human Race side, he could not stop them.
"Boom!" Suddenly, just as the Silver Wolf and the other two overlord beast emperors were about to reach the edge of Myriad Beast Mountain, the sky became densely covered with thunderclouds, and three ferocious bolts of lightning descended from the heavens, striking in front of the three figures.
"Ganging up on someone? Does my Human Race have no one?"
An ancient voice sounded, and then, a figure abruptly appeared in the sky above the battlefield.
He was an old Taoist priest, clad in a grey Taoist robe, sitting cross-legged in the air, a smile on his face as he spoke casually.
The Silver Wolf and the other two overlord beast emperors stopped upon seeing this, their faces filled with apprehension.
"Dao Xuan!" the Silver Wolf growled. Dao Xuan, the leader of the Taoist sect, was also an overlord-level expert.
"Heh heh, now it's two against three, Silver Wolf, Heavenly Fox, Ape Hunter, shall we have some fun?"
Dao Xuan chuckled, lightning flickering in his palm.
