The golden formation continued to advance.
Clearly, it was not leading the three of them out of this predicament, but to another battlefield. As for what kind of battle awaited them next, no one knew, and no one knew how many of them would survive.
To be able to survive the first battle and become the only survivors out of the nine, they were all extremely tenacious and outstanding people. Basically, their temperaments were very mature, but the previous battle and the merciless deaths had left a huge shadow in their hearts. Even after fighting so hard, they only managed to survive for a short while …
Before danger descended, Long Chen hugged the woman nestled in his arms tightly.
His eyes burned, and his blood boiled in his heart, all for the sake of survival.
Unintentionally entering this Game of the Gods could be considered extremely unfortunate. Most likely, those who survived in the end were the craziest people.
If it was him, it would be fine, but he let the two girls in.
Of course, he was also glad that Xiao Lang and the others had left first, or else with so many people sneaking in, the first person to die would have been Soyeon.
The 72 formations began to gather in one place. Some of the formations were already empty, and it was common for the 72 God Cities to be completely wiped out. This meant that there was a gap in the inheritance of this God City, and if new blood could not be brought in immediately, the God City's strength would immediately plummet.
Boom.
Long Chen felt angry.
At this moment, the golden formation crashed into a white jade platform.
The three of them looked over in shock. Before them was a white jade platform that stretched as far as the eye could see. It was like a massive white jade island that floated within the endless nine-colored mist. The platform was extremely vast, and after a careful calculation, it was at least 100,000 meters in diameter. It was ten times longer than ordinary white jade platforms, which meant that it was even larger.
Such a huge white jade platform lay in front of Long Chen and the others.
On the white jade platform, white mist rose up, making it seem like a fairyland. It was as if there were gods dancing and playing music. The moving music made people feel intoxicated, and the singing and dancing made it seem like a peaceful scene.
Listening to this peaceful music, everyone's hearts strangely calmed down.
But very soon, most of them discovered each other.
As far as the eye could see, Long Chen saw at least a dozen formations already leaning against the white jade platform. Although there were many formations, because of the size of the platform, it did not seem crowded at all.
Beside the War God Ancient City, there were Black Moon Divine City, Hell Divine City, Zi Wei Divine City, Hell Divine City, and so on. From the looks of it, almost all of the Divine City teams had already arrived on the white jade platform. There were only a few people on each diagram, and these people were the victors of the first round of battles. Long Chen roughly estimated that there should be a total of three hundred people.
Three hundred was already a lot. In fact, in many battles, when the countdown ended, no one could win. In those situations, nine people would fall into the nine-colored fog.
The ancient cities of the seventy-two divine descendants gathered next to the white jade platform. As time passed, more and more diagrams arrived and landed on the white jade platform. What were the rules of this battle? Did it mean that everything would be over after this battle?
How many people would survive in the end?
Everyone's hearts were filled with anxiety and unease.
Long Chen continued to search for Darkness Deity City amongst the countless God Cities. It was a pity that the platform was simply too big, and he was unable to find Darkness Deity City. It was possible that Darkness Deity City was on the opposite side of Long Chen, but if that was the case, it was simply too far away. In Long Chen's eyes, it was not even as big as an ant. How could he easily find it?
"What should I do? I can't see Sister Xuanji …"
Ling Xi was also looking around, her pearl-like eyes filled with a trace of worry.
Rumble, rumble, rumble.
There was still a new God City Array Diagram resting on the white jade platform. After approximately fifteen minutes, Long Chen had a rough estimate of Darkness God City's position. Among the seventy-two God City Teams, he could clearly see close to sixty of them. Darkness God City was definitely right in front of him.
"She should be looking for me at this time."
Long Chen had no other goals. He only wanted Lingxi and Li Xuanji to live well. If anything happened to either of them, he would not be able to forgive himself.
At that moment, all the teams from the divine cities had arrived.
There were less than three hundred people left.
The survivors from the various divine cities were anxiously communicating with the people nearby.
"Do you guys know what's going to happen next?"
"I don't know … Who knows, they're all dead, all dead … Our divine cities are all dead, my big brother and big sister are all dead …"
"Me too … What's going to happen next? Will there be so many people, and only one person will survive? Oh my god, what is this, it's too terrifying …"
As everyone conversed, the atmosphere became gloomy. No matter how beautiful the heavenly music on the white jade platform was, it could not erase the shadow of death in everyone's eyes.
The people who came here didn't know what would happen next. Everyone's heart was beating normally, as if there were countless giant beasts of death staring at them covetously, wanting to drag them into the abyss of death.
Just like that, time passed quietly.
The longer it went on, the more afraid everyone became, and the more miserable the atmosphere became. Hundreds of people could only comfort each other.
"Everyone, don't worry. We've already won once. Everyone will be able to survive. I believe in that."
"That's right, our ancestors only wanted to select the strongest people with the most potential. Now that we've been selected, it's time for us to receive our rewards. Once we receive our rewards, we will definitely be able to bring prosperity to our respective divine cities."
"That's right, no matter where everyone comes from, we have to be strong. We can't let our ancestors laugh at us. We've even survived a battle with a slim chance of survival. Now that we're here, if we continue to be so timid, aren't we afraid of being laughed at by the gods?"
Although many people were saying such words to boost their courage, there was probably no one who was truly encouraged. In fact, they were already cursing in their hearts. What kind of game was this? What kind of battle of glory was this? This was a battle of death, wasn't it?
In the face of this disaster, even the people from the Central Divine City, Tai Yi Divine City, and Primordial Divine City were in fear. Di Yu, who stood out the most in everyone's eyes, was not as tenacious as they had imagined. At this moment, he was hiding behind a man from the Divine City of Di Jun, trembling as he stared at the white jade platform.
"Brother, will I die …" Di Yu's face was pale.
That valiant man was a very famous warrior from the Divine City of Di Jun. His name was Di Feng, and he had already reached the Yin and Yang Samsara Tribulation Realm 10 years ago. He said calmly, "Even if everyone here dies, you won't. You are the hope of our Human Clan. Everyone will protect you and keep you alive. Trust me."
Di Yu nodded, trembling, and said, "Alright, I trust you."
Di Feng frowned slightly, and said, "Bring out your courage and heroism. Don't let others see you as a joke. You were so awe-inspiring at the Dusk Divine Bay. Although death is terrifying, you are a future god. Don't be unable to bear this little calamity."
Di Yu shook his head, trying his best not to think about it. He gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it. Give me another half a year, and I will definitely break through two more layers and reach the Three Powers Samsara Tribulation Realm. I was so close. I was just about to devour the Ultimate Mystical Dragon's inheritance, but something like this happened. Damn it, I was so close."
Di Feng said, "That's how life is. Our entire clan has high hopes for you, and we hope that you can surpass the Eternal Dragon Emperor. Your temperament is still a little lacking. Of course, you are only 20 years old, too young. You will probably be able to stand on your own in the future."
Di Yu said, "Alright, I will definitely be able to do it. Isn't it just the Eternal Dragon Emperor? Is that guy really that powerful? Every time he sees someone, he will be compared to me. How boring. I will definitely surpass him in less than a hundred years."
Di Feng swept his gaze over the many experts, and he did not say a word.
Everyone was waiting to see what was going to happen next.
Nervousness, anxiety, fear, despair, and all sorts of other emotions filled their hearts.
"There's a new game. I guess it's about time to announce it," Long Chen thought to himself.
Just as he was thinking about this, in everyone's mind, that mechanical voice once again rang out in everyone's mind. The scene of singing and dancing on the white jade platform suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by a chaotic battle between the gods. The celestial music also changed in an instant, becoming a war song filled with killing intent.
The voice continued, "To be able to come here means that you have already gone through the trials of death, and have not been eliminated."
At this point, the voice stopped. Everyone was extremely nervous, but they did not hear the next sentence. After about ten breaths of time, the next sentence was heard. The voice continued, "At this moment, the game has truly begun. The young warriors from the various divine cities have already prepared for the final battle. This is the true battle of glory. You all represent the glory and dignity of the gods. Your victory is very important to the gods, and each of you carries the high hopes of those high and mighty existences."
The voice stopped again, but the hearts of the crowd were beating even faster. Many people's faces became even paler, and they became even more nervous, their bodies trembling.
After another ten breaths of time, the voice continued, "Remember the glory of your ancestors. You must shed your blood for this, because they gave you everything, including your bodies and souls. You must not have your own thoughts. You all belong to them."
This clear voice spoke a lot more than before.
Finally, it reached the main point.
