213 Camps
As the golden light dissipated, everyone was shocked. They looked at Qin Chen in disbelief, their eyes full of admiration.
“Everyone, this array wasn’t easy to come by. Although I’ve taught it to all of you, I’ve also placed a restriction on you. You can only use it yourselves and can’t pass it on to others. If you forcefully try, you’ll self-destruct and die,” Qin Chen snorted. After all, he had spent 100 million Divine Spirit Sources to get this array. He would not give it away for free.
The crowd was not surprised by Qin Chen’s actions. Instead, they understood him. If it were any other faction, they would not be able to produce such a wonderful array easily, let alone teach it to unaffiliated cultivators like them.
“Elder King, don’t worry. Even if there’s no restriction, we won’t let the secret of the array leak.”
“Thank you, Elder King, for teaching us the array. We will definitely not leak it.”
“Hmph, the Elder King has so generously shared the array with us. If anyone dares to leak it, I’ll be the first to kill him!”
Everyone expressed their attitude one after another, all promising not to leak the array.
At the same time, Supreme Sage Qin Tian received the array from the big scorpion. Seeing the great array, he laughed out loud, his laughter reverberating throughout the imperial city, causing everyone to look puzzled.
Following that, tens of thousands of golden lights shot out from the depths of the palace, landing on all the cultivators in the King Realm and above. When everyone received the information, they were all shocked and revealed expressions of disbelief. Such an array was simply too terrifying.
At this moment, the voice of Supreme Sage Qin Tian rang out from the depths of the palace, “This array is called the Desolate Heaven Battle Array. You can only use it yourselves and can not pass it on to others. Otherwise, you will trigger the restrictions and die from self-destruction.”
As he said that, Supreme Sage Qin Tian turned to look in the direction of the primordial sage race in the East Sea. He muttered to himself, “The human race will definitely win tomorrow’s battle.”
…
Compared to the human race, the primordial sage race was much calmer. Supreme Sage Sheng Xuan had just come out of his seclusion. He took out a bronze mirror, which showed the jubilant scene of the Great Qin Dynasty. After seeing it, Supreme Sage Sheng Xuan could not help but frown and snorted, “The ignorant are really fearless!”
“Elder Sheng Xuan, how many experts do we need to send out for tomorrow’s battle?” A Sage King walked over and asked.
Sheng Xuan looked at the scene in the bronze mirror and replied, “Just Sheng Guang and Sheng Ming will do.”
“Do we need to ask the race leader?” The Sage King asked again.
Sheng Xuan shook his head, “The race leader is still sealing himself. If he is disturbed, his cultivation will probably drop. It’s better not to disturb him.”
“Yes, elder!” The Sage King nodded and then left. The primordial sage race regained its peace.
The next morning, as the sky began to turn bright, many fights broke out on the Canglan Continent. The ten thousand ancient races had attacked. They had sneaked attacks on many human cities, causing smoke to rise and the flames of war to fill the sky.
The human race’s response was also swift. The four great dynasties sent experts to reinforce the places under attack, giving the ten thousand ancient races a head-on blow. One of the top 100 ten thousand ancient races was even exterminated by a human Venerable.
Although there were Sages within the ten thousand ancient races, according to the rules, Sages could only fight in space. Thus, the Sage could only watch helplessly as his race was exterminated.
The first exchange only lasted for a few hours, ending with the ten thousand ancient races being defeated. With such a good start, the morale of the human race reached a boiling point.
In the ten thousand ancient races’ camp, the Supreme Sages from the primordial sage race, the giant race, the skyfall race, and the primordial phoenix race were all gathered.
Three Supreme Sages from the primordial sage race were here, namely Supreme Sage Sheng Xuan, Supreme Sage Sheng Guang, and Supreme Sage Sheng Ming.
The giant race also sent three Supreme Sages, namely Supreme Sage Man Niu, Supreme Sage Man Wang, and Supreme Sage Man Jin.
There were only two from the skyfall race, named Supreme Sage Duo’E and Supreme Sage Duo Ri.
Three from the primordial phoenix race came. They were Supreme Sage Huang Dao, Supreme Sage Huang Tian, and Supreme Sage Huang Yue.
Other than the 11 Supreme Sages, more than 100 Sage Kings and Sages were also gathered. They came from different races, and more than half of them were followers of the primordial sage race.
“Is the primordial dragon race really not coming? Just because of a patriarch?” Supreme Sage Man Niu snorted coldly and was filled with resentment.
“We agreed to fight the humans together,” Supreme Sage Due’E said, “But they’re now being cowards. How detestable!”
“Lord Sheng Xuan, without the support of the primordial dragon race, can we still win this battle?” Supreme Sage Huang Dao revealed a look of worry. He had received news that the demon god race would help the human race. If they really started a war, he could not see a clear outcome.
Supreme Sage Sheng Xuan snorted, “What’s there to be afraid of? We will definitely win this battle! As for the primordial dragon race, the primordial sage race will settle the score with them after the war.”
Hearing this, everyone was relieved. After all, each of them knew that the primordial sage race was far stronger than what they had shown. Once they showed their might, the entire Canglan Continent would be unable to stop them.
…
The human race’s base was a city in the central region of the Central Province. it was called Guanjun City and was the Great Qin Dynasty’s territory. Due to its unique location, it became the main camp of the human race.
The nine Supreme Sages, 36 Sage Kings, and 57 Sages of the human race were all gathered here. They were ready to set off at any time to fight the ten thousand ancient races.
“Supreme Sage Qin Tian, when are we going to fight in the starry sky?” A Sage King asked, feeling a little impatient.
Supreme Sage Qin Tian stroked his chin and said in a deep voice, “If the enemy doesn’t move, we won’t move. Since the ten thousand ancient races haven’t made any moves, let’s not rush into battle. It’s just as well that everyone can familiarize themselves with the Desolate Heaven Battle Array. This way, we’ll be able to unleash our strongest battle strength.
“But the ten thousand ancient races have already launched an attack on our cities. They have many Venerable realm experts. If they attack again, we don’t have that many Venerable realm experts. However, if we use the Desolate Heaven Battle Array straight away, they might be more prepared for the Sage realm battles in the starry sky,” Patriarch Jiu Long said, his eyes turning solemn.
The Northern Castle had the most ten thousand ancient races. If they attacked, the Great Qian Dynasty would suffer a great blow.
“Don’t worry, just use it. Even if they are not prepared now, they will be in the future. We can’t sacrifice tens of millions of lives,” Qin Chen walked over. Although this was a world where the strong preyed on the weak, he could not just sacrifice the lives of a few cities, or even a dozen cities, to win a battle where victory was not guaranteed.
Hearing Qin Chen’s words, Supreme Sage Qin Tian expressed his agreement. Then, he said, “As long as the ten thousand ancient races dare to attack us, we’ll use the desolate heaven battle array to fight them back! We’ll show them the power of the human race!”
