One by one, the Phoenix God Clan warriors gathered in front of the Northern Territory's army. Their fiery red armor exuded a scorching aura, and their tightly interlocked scales looked as if they were formed from the divine feathers of the Phoenix. Soon, they lined up neatly on the flanks of the army.
Countless eyes were fixed on the front. Many of the strong cultivators under Empress Lingxuan's command had a change in expression. They could feel an intimidating military might from the members of the Phoenix God Clan. This pressure was completely different from that of the Beijiang Army led by Xiao Yi. It was much stronger than that of the Ancient Ape Island's demon army.
After all, this was a god clan. If the Phoenix God did not die in the battle of the gods, then this group of people had the most direct blood bond with the gods. Under the influence of the Phoenix's divine power, their combat power would be extremely terrifying.
This was the real god clan that existed in the Divine Wilderness Continent.
However, this wasn't the end. Vast and mighty figures continued to emerge from the Setting Sun Peak's formation light.
In a huge pillar of light, Empress Shuiyao and Qian Ning led the Sacred Palace orthodoxy and stepped out. Accompanying them were the disciples of the Qilin Taoist Sect.
Then, a dazzling holy light overflowed from another pillar of light. One by one, the disciples of the Judgement Palace appeared. Their hair stood on end, and their bodies were wrapped in lightning. Some of them were covered in intense holy light. They followed the footsteps of the second palace master, Sheng Yu, and gradually moved closer to the North Territory's army. They stood behind the Thunder Dragon.
An invisible rhythm came from the void. Indistinct and indistinguishable figures, carrying a dangerous aura, mixed into the North Territory's army. Every circle, there would be a figure. These figures were like ghosts, and it was difficult to track them.
"Hidden Blade, join the battle."
An emperor with two blades on his back and a ghost mask knelt on one knee before Qin Hao.
"What?"
"The Shadow Warriors of Liu Island."
"Even they are here."
This time, the faces of Valley Master Shennong and the Great Ancestor of the Ghost Wilderness turned extremely ugly. How much power did Dendi gather? Especially when the Great Ancestor of the Ghost Wilderness stared at the faintly discernible figure of the assassin among the North Territory Army, he felt a strong sense of threat. He made a gesture with his palm behind him, and soon, the warriors belonging to the Ghost Wilderness Nation also became ethereal and hid among the 100,000 soldiers of the Empress's personal army.
The Flowing Island Shadow Warriors that Hidden Blade had brought with him had put a lot of pressure on the warriors of the Ghost Desolate Country. This battle had not yet begun, but it was destined to be extremely dangerous.
Weng!
The Formation Orb's radiance didn't stop, and each pillar of light made Empress Ling Xuan's face turn uglier. Her heart sank as if the burden on her shoulders was getting heavier and heavier.
The flag of the Southern Region fluttered with the word "Zheng".
The imperial flag of the Li Clan of the Proud God.
The appearance of the group of bald men led by the Arhat Palace's Arhat Emperor, as well as Palace Master Ye and the Old Demon, greatly stimulated the two opposing armies.
No one would have thought that the Alchemy Emperor would actually drag all of the four regions' forces into this battle.
The East Continent, the Southern Region, the Northern Region, and the Western Liang were all present.
Roar!
Qi Zhanzhan's footsteps stopped. The trump card of the Seven Heroes of the Southern Region stood on the right side of the North Territory's formation, coordinating with the warriors of the Phoenix God Clan on the left.
At this moment, the entire sky of Sunset Peak was filled with demonic beasts. They were densely packed and looked like black clouds. Under the leadership of a ferocious nine-headed black dragon and a huge demonic dog that looked like a lion, they roared at the 100,000 soldiers of the Empress. Currently, at the forefront of the God of War Guards, there were Centaurs and War Beasts that held battle axes in their hands. There were also Giant Apes that held huge flaming poles.
Weng!
A great force descended upon the allied army of the North Territory. Although it was invisible and no one had noticed it, it seemed to carry some kind of supreme will. As the creatures of the four regions gathered together, it invisibly poured into them.
On the contrary, Empress Ling Xuan's troops, who had shocked the heavens when they first arrived but now looked lonely and weak, were not enveloped by this great force.
"As expected of you … As expected of you … I have never been able to learn the essence of your ability to arrange troops."
Zhan Wu's figure became more and more illusory, but the smile on his face became more and more intense.
He looked at Qin Hao. After all, he was still "him." No matter how many lives he had reincarnated, the skills that were planted in his bones would not be forgotten with time and memory.
"Brother, hold on."
Qin Hao reached out to Zhan Wu. They would fight side by side in this battle, and it would not be long. He wanted to bask in the glory of victory together with the War God.
But Zhan Wu shook his head and said, "My time is up …" "Godfather."
"War God." "Boss."
Zhanlou, Zhuge Xiu, and many Divine Generals of Sunset Peak held back their tears.
"But before I leave, I have prepared a great gift for you, and also for the Evil God of the Divine Wilderness. That is the true secret trump card in my hand."
Zhan Wu smiled deeply at Qin Hao.
"A great gift?"
Qin Hao murmured.
Zhan Wu smiled and nodded.
Then, somewhere in the void, a person wearing a purple robe and a Qilin mask walked out from the crack in space. As he walked, he raised his hand and slowly took off the mask on his face, revealing a face that made the Emperors of the four regions cry out in shock. Including Zhuge Xiu, the remaining War God Guards were all shocked to the spot.
"Evil God, do you still remember me?"
A face that was seventy percent similar to Zhan Wu's appeared before the two armies and countless Emperors, causing their hearts to pound wildly.
Compared to the Sunset War God, this person's features were much more youthful. His facial features were like Zhan Wu's when he was young, and even his skin was the same, glowing with a strong wheat color.
At this moment, the "Imperial Censor" looked coldly at the Evil God, his chin raised high. Although he did not occupy the same height as the Evil God, he looked down on it with contempt. His gaze was like a sharp needle that pierced deeply into the Evil God's heart. If it had a heart, it would be in so much pain that it would want to dig it out.
"It's you …" The Evil God's manifestation of Eastern Sky instantly surged with evil energy. Of course it remembered.
It was this person wearing the qilin mask who had destroyed a portion of its soul energy.
But the Evil God never imagined that this person would look exactly like the Sunset War God. Was it an incarnation?
A clone?
No, what was it?
"This …" Qin Hao was also stunned, his face filled with shock.
He clearly remembered Zhan Wu's youthful appearance. It was exactly the same as the "Imperial Censor."
But, what was this person?
"The time has come. You have done enough for him. Leave the rest to me."
The Imperial Censor, or rather, the "Young War God," spoke coldly to the old Zhan Wu.
"Then … I'll leave it to you, the other me."
The old Zhan Wu's armor separated bit by bit, turning into a dazzling stream of light. It began to gather on the purple robe of the young Zhan Wu, as if it was tailor-made, outlining his powerful body.
When the Godly King Armor was completely transferred, the young Zhan Wu's body exploded with a terrifying battle intent. Along with this, the old Zhan Wu's illusory body gradually flew up, becoming more and more illusory until it turned into countless Dao Will particles. They bathed in the young Zhan Wu's Godly King Armor, as if the two bodies had overlapped.
"Big Brother."
Qin Hao looked at this scene and spoke with a sobbing voice.
He knew that Zhan Wu, who carried Dendi's incomplete soul and drifted through the myriad of worlds, had left.
But what came with him was a new Sunset War God, a god who possessed everything that Zhan Wu had when he was alive.
In other words, Zhan Wu had never left. Now, he was just accompanying Dendi in another way.
"Don't be sad, I am still me. I am more qualified to be him than the Zhan Wu just now, because I am the Godly Source of the War God."
The young Zhan Wu, who had recovered to his peak, spoke. He gently grasped the Godly King Armor boxing glove on his hand, and instantly, a wave of intense battle intent particles appeared.
At this moment, with the return of the old Zhan Wu as the War God's Dao Will, the young Zhan Wu's power was stronger than ever before. The faint light of the Nine Realms of the Martial Way flickered on the Godly King Armor, and he was only a step away from Nirvana.
But Zhan Wu would never tell Qin Hao that he had paid the price of severing one of his souls to fall from the God Realm to the mortal body and be reborn from the Godly Source.
The one guarding the Sunset Peak was actually just a Godly King Armor filled with Dao Will.
