As soon as these dark monsters appeared, Guo Ran and the others sighed and shook their heads.
Immediately after, the scene they had anticipated appeared: countless disciples charging forward were slain by those dark monsters.
These silver-striped monsters were very familiar to Guo Ran and the others; they were elite among the dark monsters, with strength comparable to the prodigies of the human race.
Even stronger than these beings were the monsters with golden markings, equivalent to the dual-polar supreme beings of the human race.
The monster with golden markings, back in the Forbidden Zone of Life, even Dragonblood Warriors dared not be careless.
Nowadays, among ordinary monsters, those with silver patterns occasionally have golden markings. It's obvious these people are going to suffer a big loss.
The most terrifying part is that at first, there weren't many monsters with silver markings, but in the blink of an eye, they became the main force.
And the number of monsters with golden patterns kept increasing. Their claws and teeth were almost enough to rival domain artifacts, and the weapons in people's hands were becoming less and less threatening to these monsters.
"Puff puff puff..."
The dark monsters grew more numerous like the sea flooding backward. Terrifying creatures spread in all directions like a tsunami, and countless powerful beings screamed in terror and fled in panic.
But now, it was too late to escape. Countless people were overwhelmed by the tide of monsters, torn to pieces. Anyone killed by these monsters had no soul to escape and was completely dead.
Those strong warriors who had escaped from Long Chen's team had originally been on the edge, but when they saw the situation turned unfavorable, they fled outward.
"Senior Brother Long Chen, save me."
A disciple screamed in terror—it was none other than Long Chen's group.
At this moment, he no longer had the confidence and arrogance he once had. He fled in a sorry state, with billions of dark monsters behind him. Terrified, he ran desperately.
"I already gave you one chance, but you wasted it. Not only did you kill yourself, you also caused the deaths of others.
In this world, no one owes anyone anything. You don't even cherish your own life, yet you expect others to risk their lives to save you. Sorry, I'm not a saint, I can't do it. Long Chen shook his head.
"Long Chen, you actually stood by and watched someone die, you're ... Ah, no..." Seeing Long Chen answer like this, the man roared angrily.
But as he roared, his speed suddenly slowed, and then he was swallowed by the endless monsters. He disappeared, and his screams were drowned out by the monster's roar.
"Prepare to fight. Dragon Blood Warriors take the main attack, War God Hall assists, Xinghe Sect disciples defend from the flanks, can attack or defend, switch automatically, Academy disciples assist the whole field, seize every opportunity.
As for the other disciples, if they have the ability, step in to defend; if not, don't cause trouble and just watch quietly. "Facing the monsters rushing in like a tsunami, Long Chen said calmly.
"Puff puff puff..."
As Long Chen finished speaking, the Dragon Blood warriors had already drawn their swords. Waves of sword energy surged forth, and in a straight line, flesh flew everywhere. The tide-like dark monsters crashed like giant waves crashing against rock, instantly breaking through and cutting off their charge.
With just one move, he interrupted the terrifying charge, and his effortless demeanor shocked countless people.
The disciples of the War God Hall were initially displeased when they heard Long Chen ask them to assist. After all, the disciples of the War God Hall were warmongering and extremely arrogant. Long Chen asking them to assist felt to them as looking down on them.
But seeing the Dragonblood warriors strike, with just over two thousand men, they could unleash such terrifying might startled them.
It wasn't just them who were shocked; the strong fighters outside the arena were also affected. Although it was just one move, two thousand people attacked simultaneously, perfectly synchronized. When their power erupted, they could resonate and converge to form a mysterious force field. That was truly terrifying.
If it were two people attacking at the same time, it might be understandable, but for two thousand to coordinate so well, it was simply shocking.
"Kill!"
After a brief moment of shock, the War God Hall disciples attacked from the side, attacking the remaining dark monsters. Meanwhile, the disciples of the Galaxy Sect summoned a phenomenon one by one. The star river swirled, their destructive power astonishing. As soon as the dark monsters approached, they were slain.
The disciples of the Galaxy Sect were surrounded by divine starlight and aura that was astonishing. Their phenomena could resonate and support each other. Together, it was as if they had been empowered by a great star array.
With their charge interrupted, the threat from these dark monsters was greatly reduced. The academy disciples didn't even need to fight, and the others, needless to say, could only obediently watch.
"Long Chen, what do you think?"
Meng Qi and Long Chen stood side by side, gazing at the passage above the sky, where endless dark monsters descended. A trace of seriousness appeared in Meng Qi's eyes.
"Of course, I'll stand with you and watch." Long Chen said with a smile.
Meng Qi smiled and shot Long Chen a look. Seeing her smile, Long Chen's heart felt like it was melting. Unfortunately, there were too many people here; otherwise, he would have hugged her and kissed her fiercely.
Seeing Long Chen staring at her in a daze, Mengqi's pretty face flushed, but her beautiful eyes were filled with joy. After being apart for so long, the longing in her heart had long since gathered like a sea.
But there were so many people here that she didn't even have a chance to say a heartfelt word or express her longing to Long Chen. Still, Long Chen's familiar gaze comforted her deeply. His expression was exactly the same as when they first met in the Fengming Empire.
She could feel that Long Chen's love for her had never diminished in the slightest, but Meng Qi didn't dare to show too much excitement. After rolling her eyes at Long Chen, she reproached him:
"I'm asking you, what do you think of these dark monsters?"
"What's so interesting about them? With so many ladies around, each of them is like sinking fish and falling geese, breathtaking and shaming, stunning and peerless. I can't even see them all—how could I have the mood to look at them!" Long Chen chuckled and spoke in a voice only a few people nearby could hear.
Long Chen's words instantly made all the women blush and their hearts race. His praise was just too blunt. Even though they knew he meant it on purpose, everyone couldn't help but feel happy inside.
"Don't mess around. At times like this, be serious." Mengqi said with a hint of reproach.
Long Chen nodded. Although he wished he could leave immediately and have a good talk with his close friends, now was definitely not the time to joke.
Long Chen's expression grew slightly more serious as he looked at the spatial passage: "This Saint King Assembly is extremely strange; all the rules have changed."
The Saint King Conference turned into a Gu Breeding Conference. The chosen Saint King was the Gu King. To become a Gu King, one had to kill all enemies. It looked like a trap for people to kill each other.
However, the appearance of the dark creatures shattered my previous understanding. It seems that this Saint King Assembly seems to have some hidden agenda. "
What do you think the conspiracy would be?" Or rather, what is the purpose? Mengqi said.
Long Chen shook his head, just about to speak, when suddenly his expression changed and he shouted, "
Guo Ran, kill them!"
