The Raging Inferno Guardian was no stranger to source beasts. Thanks to his many years of experience crossing swords with the Jade Bone Bird, he was already very familiar with the different grades of source beasts.
The Primordial Diabolical Bull, who had never displayed its power, was actually a top-notch Dark-Grade source beast.
How was this possible?
The Raging Inferno Guardian had been unscrupulously thinking of all sorts of methods to get Luo Yunyang to switch positions with him so he could avoid the Jade Bone Bird, which was about to become a Dark-Grade beast. However, he had never expected that the harmless Primordial Diabolical Bull would actually be a top-notch Dark-Grade beast as well.
Just as victory had been in his hands, the pig he had been about to slaughter had turned into a tiger before his very eyes.
This particular beast was an extremely vicious tiger.
For a moment, the Raging Inferno Guardian even thought that he might die.
He couldnât die, though. He knew very well what he was seeking. Even if source beasts occupied the Da Alliance, his cultivation base would still ensure his survival.
How could he die?
As he thought about this, the Raging Inferno Guardian immediately made a decision. He would flee! He would worry about the punishment of the Collective God Union later.
What was important now was that he flee.
Just as he was about to leave, Ba Xinjie rushed up to him and said loudly, âSir, you are the only one capable of stalling the Primordial Diabolical Bull. We have asked for taboo weapons as a form of support, so we might still be able to drive the Primordial Diabolical Bull away.â
âThe dimensional fracture hasnât fully formed yet, so if we drive the Primordial Diabolical Bull away, it might shrink. Actually, it might even return to its original size!â
The Raging Inferno Guardian stared at the staunch Ba Xinjie as he chuckled. âYou want me to hold off the Primordial Diabolical Bull?â
âSir, I know that this is very dangerous, but we donât have any other choice. Behind us is Jinâfu City, which isâŠâ
The Raging Inferno Guardian slapped Ba Xinjieâs face before he could finish speaking. âGoddamnit! Even a pair of nesting birds on the same tree would fly off separately in the face of a catastrophe! What else can I do here? These are dangerous times. Do you want daddy to brave through fire and water to hold off a source beast for you people? That would be too goddamned generous!â
After slapping the repulsive Ba Xinjie, the Raging Inferno Guardian soared into the air and disappeared frantically into the distance.
The Raging Inferno Guardian had fled!
Ba Xinjie got up with difficulty and looked on dumbstruck as the Raging Inferno Guardian disappeared.
Never in his wildest dreams had he imagined that such a prestigious god-grade powerhouse would actually flee without any regard for his prestige.
How could he flee?
He had received all sorts of offerings for so many years. How could he choose to flee at such a crucial time?
Besides, Jinâfu City was behind them. If they fled, then the residents of Jinâfu City would simply have no hope of escaping a swarm of countless dire beasts.
âWhat do we do?â a puerile young man asked in panic as he helped Ba Xinjie to his feet.
âAre you afraid of dying?â Ba Xinjie said calmly before gently pushing away the young manâs hand.
The young man hesitated for a bit before ultimately nodding his head. âI am!â
âHa ha! You are very honest, kid. Actually, to tell you the truth, I am also afraid!â Ba Xinjie said gravely. âHowever, thereâs no other way out! If we retreat any more, we will reach Jinâfu City! Every moment that we stall the Primordial Diabolical Bull we save countless lives. No matter how you see this, it seems worthwhile. Relay my orders and request for emergency assistance from Shenâdu. Then follow me!â
Streams of flames shot towards the position of the Primordial Diabolical Bull, continuously taking down the dire beasts pouring through the crack made by the bull.
However, the fortress these jets of flames were shooting out from was turned into rubble after a battering from the shadow of the huge bull.
The body of the Primordial Diabolical Bull had thoroughly split open the dimensional fracture. However, the bull didnât stay. It immediately left the void with a light hop and landed on solid ground.
A lively beastial cry left the mouth of the Primordial Diabolical Bull before countless dire beasts flew out of the huge crack and headed in the direction of Jinâfu City like a flowing waterfall sweeping everything in its wake.
âRun! Run! Run!â
Throngs of people crowded on the main street, which wasnât wide enough. The crying, shouting and weeping sounds they made caused the street to seem like hell.
âMove quickly! The dire beasts are coming!â
âEscape to Jinâfu City. We will only survive by going to Jinâfu City! Hurry up!â
âItâs a peak Dark-Grade source beast! Everyone run away quickly!â
Amidst all that shouting, a huge eagle appeared in the sky and blotted out the sun. When it saw the fleeing humans, its eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty glint.
As the huge eagle rushed over, many people screamed and wailed. The crowd on the street tried to flee before it was turned into a wave of blood.
âHelp! Someone save usâŠâ
âMama! Where are you, mama?â
Huge dire beasts spilled out of the massive crack like an onrushing tide, scaring the massesâŠ
The sky was shaking, the earth was trembling and people were crying.
Meanwhile, Jin Zaitian was busy assembling all sorts of manpower and transferring resources in Shenâdu. His words were laced with murderous intent as he spoke.
âHold them off! I command you all to hold these dire beasts off, no matter the cost! One hour. You guys have to hold on for one hour. Donât give me any excusesâŠâ
Although Jin Zaitianâs mouth was dry, he knew that he had to do this. He couldnât afford to hesitate at such a crucial time.
âThe Rising Dragon Army doesnât have enough manpower. Let the Sky High Military support them. I donât care if we have to sacrifice our lives. Letâs do it!â
Jin Zaitian eventually picked up the glass of water before him and took a sip. Meanwhile, his eyes landed on Zhuge Yi, who had been waiting beside him.
âHow is it going? Can the Martial God help?â

Zhuge Yi shook his head. âThe Martial God is currently in isolation. He canât move out. As for the other ultimate powerhouses, they have all reported that they are protecting their own locations. Huge numbers of dire beasts and source beasts have gathered, so it is difficult for them to provide assistance.â
Jin Zaitianâs fingers seemed to freeze in mid air. He looked at Zhuge Yi, whom he trusted the most, as he said in a trembling voice, âCanât the Martial⊠Martial God come out of seclusion? If we arenât able to seal that crack within 24 hours, then it will become permanent. If that happens, the 13 Eastern Cities will be doomed!â
Zhuge Yiâs voice was filled with grief as he said, âOut of all the ultimate powerhouses, Unrivalled Warrior Johann is under the least pressure. However⊠he hasnât answered our request.â
Jin Zaitian didnât say anything. He just stared desolately at the screen as his eyes became redder.
