Chapter 461 - 234: The Four Great Ancestral Spirits Display Demon Might, the Outer Realm Demon Country Connects with the Divine Dao (Part 2)
Among them, the most powerful figures called themselves ’Ancestral Spirits’ and rallied the world’s monsters to establish this ’Outer Realm Demon Country’.
According to information brought back by many warriors who survived the war, within a hundred-mile radius surrounding the Outer Realm Demon Country, there is not a soul in sight, and on withered trees hang translucent ’veils’ like plastic skins, rustling loudly in the wild wind.
These ’veils’ are not silk products at all, but human skins peeled off from living people.
Within a ten-mile radius around the city, tall flagpoles stand almost encircling the city, all hung with shriveled human heads.
Many warriors of the Soul Hall, upon seeing this scene, felt a surge of anger from deep within their hearts.
All around the Demon Country, human head mounds are built, each human head, without distinction of adult or child, male or female, with twisted expressions, torn flesh, and hollow eyes, indicating the terrifying torture these humans endured before their death.
Besides, there are pits of bones, towers of human bones, too numerous to count, tragic beyond measure.
The Outer Realm Demon Country occupies hundreds of cities, and the humans in each city are treated as food, as reared two-legged sheep, truly a dance of demons.
Those advanced zombies with self-awareness became the true nobility of the Demon Country. They have innate powerful abilities, able to manipulate the dead zombies, possessing the power of cultivation, subduing various monsters evolved from animals and plants, or specially cultivating various ghosts, turning the surrounding areas into chaos.
The monsters in the city’s Demon Country feast on human flesh, drink human blood, devour souls, and treat humans as two-legged sheep, fully displaying their inherently cruel and evil nature.
With the Soul Hall’s investigative capabilities, they were astonished to discover that even in the most remote city of the Demon Country, no less than hundreds of thousands of living humans are kept.
They are the lowest slaves and blood food.
Living humans have all become delicacies for this mob of demons and ghosts, either eaten or caught and reared.
It is said that in the main city of the Outer Realm Demon Country, the Great Demon Divine Capital, over a million human lives are penned like livestock farms.
This is not a war of civilizations, but a racial war, a battle for survival.
The two races are inherently opposed.
Creating the current situation.
"Advanced zombies with self-awareness have actually evolved to create such a civilization? Truly unbelievable!"
"Humans kill zombies, gain Zombie Crystal Cores, acquire various resources, while the advanced zombies of the Outer Realm Demon Country use humans as food, as two-legged sheep, which seems quite fair..."
"What a pity, your stance decides your position, who’s to blame for being human by birth, and more so as the Lord of the Soul Hall, having no choice but to be the enemy..."
Zheng Yi listened to his subordinate’s description, his tranquil face revealing no expression, as if the sky fell, it could not shake his composure.
Only a subtle constriction of his pupils indicated his surprise.
Zheng Yi did not expect that the entirely bloodthirsty zombies, after decades of changes, would actually develop self-awareness.
Moreover, these self-aware zombies directly call themselves the ’Corpse Race’, distinguishing themselves from previous humans, establishing a new civilization, and treating humans as reared two-legged sheep.
Besides, after being illuminated by the Blood Moon, undergoing some mutation, certain plants and animals are also frantically evolving. Among them, some have even evolved into self-aware monsters, treating humans as food.
This is just a corner of the Western Continent; the entire world is divided into four continental territories and dozens of large and small continents. The Western Continent where the Soul Hall resides is but a small corner.
It’s hard to imagine how the survival environment outside has become such a chaotic dance of madness.
"Not only that, but those high-tier Corpse Races have established four Ancestral Spirit Divine Temples in the cities, claiming to be the descendants of the Ancestral Spirits, coming to this world to overthrow all old forces and establish a new world for the Corpse Race."
Lei Wuqian added.
The reason the warriors of the Soul Hall repeatedly suffered heavy losses is not only due to the powerful and strange abilities of these Corpse Races but also because of the terrifying chain reactions under the protection of the four Ancestral Spirits.
In terms of combat power, they directly crushed a group of Blood Warriors and Ghost Warriors, causing severe losses to the combat division controlled by the Soul Hall.
"Ancestral Spirit Belief?!"
With these words, Zheng Yi’s expression instantly became serious.
If it was just a war between the two, Zheng Yi could completely use it as a means to train the Soul Hall’s teams, sending batches of Blood Warriors and Ghost Warriors to the battlefield, continuously honing their combat awareness and abilities to thoroughly mature them.
However, since the opposing side has developed beliefs, this war becomes inevitable.
It could even be called a life-and-death battle.
A belief war is entirely different from other wars.
It represents a war between two completely different beliefs, never about winning or losing, but ending in the complete destruction of one side in a terrifying manner,
Thus, once a belief war is initiated, all believers are inevitably swept into it, and no one can stay out of it.
"In that case, let the Divine War begin!"
With Zheng Yi’s command, the terrifying behemoth, the Soul Hall, began to exert full force.
"This world can only harbor one belief, and that is the Netherworld Netherworld..."
The Soul Hall, having just suffered a major defeat in the war, regrouped, amassing its greatest combat power, and sounded the horn of counterattack at the border with the Outer Realm Demon Country.
...
Roar!
Roar!
On the ground, in a world of earthen yellow, all surrounding green plants and many tall trees were entirely destroyed.
The entire world turned into an endless expanse of yellow, with parts of the earth suffering from the most severe sandification, the flowing yellow sands continuously changing direction and shifting on the ground.
It must be said that the region controlled by the Outer Realm Demon Country is excessively desolate, and as per the earlier reconnaissance reports, it’s even more brutal than the Supreme Management Committee imagined.
Rattle!
The sound of fluttering human skins echoed between heaven and earth.
On the high flagpoles, the hung human heads, with twisted expressions and hollow eye sockets, all silently told of the tragic fate they suffered in life.
Every Soul Hall warrior entering this area gritted teeth, eyes burning with flames of hatred.
Compassion for one’s kind.
In each person’s ears, the painful wails, the dying anger, the boundless sorrow of their human compatriots seemed to echo, flowing like water in this world.
It was a ’sadness’ issuing from deep within the heart of the Human Race, a pain from the Human Race’s destiny being thoroughly changed.
"What strange power of belief!"
Zheng Yi did not go on the expedition but stayed in the Incense Fire Dharma Realm. With his near-godlike abilities, as long as the realm is covered, with the support of the power of belief, his attacks could reach any part of the Incense Fire Dharma Realm at any time.
"It seems, there will be much to play at in the future..."
"These monsters have actually evolved a civilization and divine power, but where did it originate? From hidden messages in the bloodline, or from the Outer Realm civilization, or perhaps history’s remnants..."
Zheng Yi did not venture out, but through the powerful capabilities of the Incense Fire Dharma Realm, he could descend to any location at any time.
Wherever the army passed, Zheng Yi could appear at any time!
But he remained hidden, observing all changes.
What intrigued him was that the mutation of the Corpse Race was incredibly fast, not the individual abilities, but the formation of the Demon Country civilization and its rapid evolution of divine power, which intrigued him.
After all, it’s typical for sprouts of belief to appear in such an ignorant area, but to already have a rough command of divine power and the emergence of the so-called four Ancestral Spirits is rather unusual.
It contradicts the historical progression of divine power.
It seems more like some external interference has twisted the development of the entire civilization.
